Be sure to stop by our D.A.R.E. Building at the Allen County Fairgrounds during the fair. When you are there you can visit with DARE Deputy Ted and purchase a $5 raffle ticket, which will enter you into a drawing to win the pictured Safariland Kona Shield Bike valued at $1,900!
A maximum of just 200 tickets will be sold! The drawing will be held on the last day of the fair, or when all 200 tickets have been purchased.
A special thank you to Ken Fultz and Cody of Crankers Cycling for servicing this bike for us and getting it ready for the big winner!

Back to school time is in full swing! Stay alert Allen County drivers; 👀watch for school buses 🚌, and children walking or riding a bike to school in🚲. Be prepared for potential morning traffic delays as school buses make their stops.

🛑When the lights flash, don't pass!🛑

Need to take a break while enjoying all the Allen County Fair has to offer? Stop by our rest tent on the Midway, grab a seat, relax and cool off! We also have private breastfeeding and baby changing stations.

Thank you AnytimeLima for your support of the Allen County D.A.R.E Program! National Night Out 5K was a great success and $10,180 was raised to benefit the Allen County D.A.R.E. program!

👀 Look for our post of a behind the scenes video of Daren the D.A.R.E. Lion going through a workout at Anytime Fitness! He’s spent too much time indoors this summer so Anytime Fitness whipped him right back into shape!

When you’re at the Allen County Fair make sure you check out the new addition to the Allen County D.A.R.E Program building🤩

Thank you, Dienstberger Foundation, Sam's Club, Kewpee Hamburgers, and Rotary Club of Lima!

We’re fortunate to have a county that cares so much about our D.A.R.E. program and we appreciate each and everyone of our donors so very much! Thank you!
