Lots happening at the Lake County Fair

Barnyard races, a lumberjack show and an antique tractor parade were among the events that entertained folks at the Lake County Fair on Saturday.

Martial arts demonstrations, a beer- and cheese-making demonstration and a slew of musical performances kept fairgoers enthralled, too.

The fair concludes Sunday at the county fairgrounds, 1060 East Peterson Road, Grayslake. For more information and tickets, visit lcfair.com.
