FULTON — The sun was shinning and an occasional cool breeze blew through the community of Fulton during its annual Fulton Fun Days Saturday.

Residents and guests lined Main Street (SR 25) up to an hour before the 23rd annual Fulton Fun Day parade at noon, which honored its first responders. Most sought the comfort of shade trees and awnings along the parade route — Main Street, Davis Street, Wright Street and Brown Street.

Following the parade, which had approximately 38 entries, the crowd converged on Liberty Township Park where vendors were set up, food options available, inflatable bounce house, dunk tank, tournaments and concerts took place.

The contests included corn hole, pedal tractor pull, chalk art, horseshoes, baseball/softball throw, free throw/three-point basketball, euchre, and 3 on 3 tournament.

The annual event is sponsored by the Fulton Liberty Lions.
