“The heat is what it is and most people know to just slow down and take it easy,” said Fair Board Secretary Jerry Schaffner. “We have had no heat-related incidents.”
Schaffner said that swine will be moved in late Friday overnight into Saturday morning to reduce heat issues. The only other animals on the grounds are riding horses kept there year-round. Veterinarians will be on site during the fair.
The fair continues through Saturday, July 27.
