Food, animals and rides enticed people to come to the Haddam Neck Fair in East Hampton on Monday.
The four-day event attracts 20,000 people, according to Dave Tozier, the President of the Haddam Neck Fair.
With the temperatures expected to climb into the 90s for the last day of the fair, several families made sure to pack water and stay hydrated.
First responders also set up a first aid station. They are keeping a close eye on people to make sure no one gets overheated.
“We have ice packs. If someone gets overheated we can treat them, have them sit down, give them cool towels, etc. Just watching people, elderly are obviously at higher risk for heat exhaustion,” said Kim Danaher, the EMS captain of the Haddam Neck Fire Department.
The fair ends on Labor Day at 5 p.m.
