The Toledo Mudhens will host a Labor Day Picnic at Fifth Third Field at 4:05 p.m. before their game on Sept. 2 against the Indianapolis Indians. The National Museum of the Great Lakes in Toledo will also offer free admission to active and retired union members to celebrate their contributions to the city.

In Findlay, the Hancock County Fair is offering free admission to the public on Labor Day. There, guests can enjoy their day off with food, rides and 4-H showcases from people across Hancock County.
