ADAMS COUNTY, ILL. -- Fair season is here.

This year the Adams County Fair and Blessing Health System wants to have some fun while fighting childhood obesity.

This year at the Adams County Fair Grounds, kids in 6th grade through 8th grade have the chance at taking on the The Big Heat Obstacle Course.

It is a perfect way to get your kids outdoors and moving.

Teams of four or individuals can take on the extreme skills of balancing, strength, agility and speed.

You now have until July 16th to register for the event to be held on Sunday, July 29 at the Adams County Fair Grounds.
