The Montgomery County Fair auction set for Tuesday features “hundreds of things from A to Z.”

The Montgomery County Agriculture Society Board of Directors announced the auction ahead of the fair’s move to its new fairgrounds and event center at Arthur O. Fisher Park in Jefferson Twp. from the Main Street fairgrounds in Dayton.

Plans unveiled for the new Montgomery County Fairgrounds site in Jefferson Twp. call for three air-conditioned and heated buildings to keep and attract year-round events. Seven buildings and an office are planned during the first phase of development.
