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.

Masks will not be required in barns, beer tents and anywhere else outdoors.
