The State Fair starts at the end of the week and there are some changes coming because of COVID. Masks will be required inside of buildings – including the coliseum and dairy building. They will also need to be worn when in the Grandstand for a concert. Director of Agriculture Jerry Costello says he wants everyone that comes to the fair to be ready to stay healthy and have a good time.
“We are asking to follow CDC guidelines; CDC guidelines, just like everyone in the country is suppose to follow them. What we have concentrated on, and the administration has been fabulous working with us, is the ability to have a fair. We are asking people to please be as safe as they possibly can. Again, every fair in the United States should be be following CDC guidelines.”
Masks will not be required in barns, beer tents and anywhere else outdoors.
