The Swierczek family made the trip from Omaha to attend, continuing what has become a yearly tradition of getting the family together for the fair.

When asked about the best fair food, the answer was not unanimous.

"Lemonade… no the chicken tenders," the Swierczeks said.

From the pedal pull to funnel cakes, the fair offered something for everyone. Twisted Hitch, a business with Springfield locals cooking up food, used the event as an opportunity to showcase their food and their town.
