These four events offer fairgrounds diversions if needed.

The Clark County Fair is probably on everyone’s agenda this weekend, but if you’re looking for something else, here are four things to do away from the fairgrounds.

There will be live music, restaurant specials and games. COhatch vendors and restaurants will be participating, including the Painted Pepper, the Market Bar, Myers Burgers & Wings.
