For many years the Citrus County Fair and Spring Break coincide. School Day at the Fair celebrates the youths of Citrus County with a day-long Midway special. This year School Day saw hundreds of students, parents and grandparents visit the midway on a hot, dry afternoon to take in games, rides and foods that make the Citrus County Fair famous.
