Aurelia Walker, the 3-year daughter of Seth and Megan Walker of Columbiana, sits Saturday afternoon next to her grandfather, Jim Hummer of Boardman, after trying a bite of a hot sausage sandwich during the Columbiana Street Fair. Her opinion per mom, it was too spicy. The city’s American Legion post has hosted this event annually since 1920, taking it over from a merchants’ group. This was the 138th year it was held.

Each year, street fair organizers host several hours in late morning and early afternoon of food and fun for special needs fairgoers at no charge. This is by invitation only and entitles the guests to a private time at the event with accompaniment by volunteers. This event also includes a Firemen’s parade to kickoff the event Thursday, food trailers and area groups utilize the event to fundraise for their own pet projects.
