Volunteers may take over Rusk County Fair operation
Rusk County eyes a volunteer based future for its fair with a new Fair Advisory Committee forming a Fair Society to run the event. An organizational meeting is set for 8 p.m. Thursday at the Law Enforcement Center in Ladysmith as 35 outdoor exhibits set a record and officials plan to shift more duties to volunteers to relieve county staff.
