It’s been about eight years since a fair with a carnival has been held in neighboring Adair County, but that is set to change at the end of this month.
The Adair County Fair Association plans to bring a fair back to Adair County at the end of this month with a carnival, beginning July 31 and going through August 3 at the new property located on Industrial Park Road.
Things changed for the Adair County Fair about eight years ago when the event had to be scaled back after the fairgrounds property was sold to Lindsey Wilson College.
Since then, a group of volunteers have held a scaled-down version of the fair mostly consisting of pageants and other events.
