End of Summer Classic

Lorain County Beekeepers Association will be hosting their third annual “End of Summer Classic” festival on Saturday, September 9, 2023 at the Lorain County Fairgrounds from 9 AM to 3:00 PM. 

Admission $5.00. This will be a community educational day with three expert speakers on beekeeping. Bee specialists, family-friendly fun, local craftsmen and vendors, fair food, games, and prizes will all be featured at this event, which is being held for a very worthy cause.

A fundraising project to raise money to build a year-round learning center at the Lorain County Fairgrounds for the future generations of beekeepers and farmers. With building plans well under way, we invite you to work with us to make this plan a reality. Our mission is to promote Beekeeping through education, cooperation, or any other efficient means.

Classic Cruisin' – we would especially like to thank LaManna Presents for their generosity and time. Open to all years, makes and models. Shine'em up and show them off!

Sportsman Gift Card & Gun Raffle. Eight $500 Gift Cards will be drawn on the half hour from 10:00 AM - 1:30 PM. At 2:00 PM the Grand Prize ticket will be drawn for a Kimber Pro-Carry II, 9 mm and 2 boxes of 9 mm  ammo (a $1,000 value). All prizes provided by Fin Feather Fur Outfitters.
