Tuesday
morning marked another sad milestone in our coronavirus history as
the Logan County Fair Association sent out notices regarding this
year's fair. To protect the safety and health of our community, the
Association has decided to cancel the 2020 Logan County Fair.
We know this had to have been a very hard decision for the board
members who are so very dedicated to our fair.
Last week, the Logan County Railsplitting Association announced the
50th Annual National Railsplitting Festival would not be held this
year.
Please support these organizations in their decisions. As sad as it
is, we know it was the right thing to do.
