I love the fall festival season in Ohio, but if I could only go to one this would be it. I dream of…read morethis food throughout the rest of the year. I can make it at home (I have a Greek SIL who taught me) but it's labor and time intensive, so I don't often do it. But I hit this festival early, buy a dozen (at least) of everything, shove some in my mouth and bring the rest home. I'm in and out in under an hour....parking is not a problem if you get there when they open Tonight we'll have a Greek Picnic on the patio, and I can't wait for that time to come..And the wine is cheaper here...it was $6 for what I consider a taste there. Yes, it's not cheap, but oh so worth it for the food. Already looking forward to next year.

The Dayton Greek Festival is okay. It's something to do in Dayton. But the food was alright…read more I liked that there were a ton of pastries you could buy and the way you order them is super efficient. They have an order sheet out with pictures of what everything is. That way when you go up to the counter, you're not wasting time and they know what to get you. The chicken gyro wasn't that good. You'd expect it to be a chicken gyro but it was really just grilled chicken breast with tzatziki sauce, onions, and tomato in a pita bread. The gyro was just alright too. We should have went inside for the lamb or the skewers. The spanakopita was good, but cold which was fine since it was just sitting out all day. It's nice that admission is only $2. The parking wasn't too bad only because we were able to find street parking nearby. Besides going there for a meal, there isn't much else to do here.

They close both major streets through town for the parade and street festival!…read more For the parade its tradition to go out a day or so before the parade and stake a claim to a piece of curb. Leaving folding chairs on your spot is part of the deal. And no one messes with your stuff. Its sort of code. Just love it. The parade is solid too. Lots of bands and marchers and well, lots of great sponsors too. A whole community thing! The street fair is just awesome. There are several bandstands and we've never been disappointed with the music variety and quality of talent! Lots of foodie options for everyone, local and exotic fare. Lots of places to take your stuff, cop a squat and a bit of shade and pig out! Lots of local artisans and plenty of cool arts and crafts to choose from. Its a great place to take the family, some community charm and hospitality and celebrate the day!

I've been to the Millersport Sweet Corn Festival a couple of times. Frankly, I enjoyed this one…read moremore. It seems smaller, but there were many good food vendors. Also other vendors and events. It is very kid-friendly, and dog-friendly. We were there for the corn, but mainly for the amazing corn dogs from Bite Me, a "gourmet" corn dog tent. Someone talked me into entering the corn eating contest. It was a weird, team event with several heats, so there really weren't any winners (or we were all winners, right?) The corn was good, the competitors were friendly, it was well-organized, and I had fun. Afterward we had a couple of corn dogs, including Sweetie's first-ever. A few sweet treats, a little wandering amongst the crowds, and we were off.

I was a little disappointed. I was surprised that only one booth was selling cooked corn. The booth…read morethat was selling fresh corn had it priced a bit high. I agree with supporting local businesses but the price was almost double what you would pay elsewhere. There was a nice selection of food. Everything from pork chops to BBQ and the regular carnival type fare. There were quite a few vendors. Tutus seemed to be the theme this year. Overall, it was a little disappointing. We may or may not be back next year.

Such a fun little festival even if it does always rain!…read more Great food. Great for the family. Lots of local restaurants and businesses come out for this one. They have something for just about everyone. Great festival to take the kids to as well!

It's almost like I've stepped back into a Norman Rockwell painting where everyone knew their neighbors and there was a great sense of community. The Sugar Maple Festival occurs each spring, this year April 16-18. For a small town, the Sugar Maple Festival is a good sized festival. Because of this, parking is limited. We didn't see any dedicated parking so we parked at a market a few blocks back and walked the short walk over. It looks like the festival is divided into 3 sections. One street had all food (try the hot dogs at the fire department booth. Especially if you like spicy!), the park where there are children's activities and live music, and the craft booths and vendors. I wasn't too impressed with the vendors. Most of them were not local and there were even booths selling knock off designer purses! Next to the police department building! The fire department was giving a demonstration on how they respond to accidents, using the jaws of life to take the top off of a car. It was pretty interesting to watch and hear the narrator talk about what the responders do in a situation like that and what they are looking to do to make sure they save lives. It was a good time and I'd definitely love to go back and see the parade next year. And best of all, admission is free!

Fireworks were last nite - which was a GREAT SHOwJust awesome. We hung out in the big tent and listened to The Milos, an alternative folk group. The music was great! It was cloudy but hot. Lots going on again this year there's a food truck alley but it mights as well be masses of people trying to get to the food trucks in the alley kinda thing. All good though for a great holiday. Check out some of the photos.
