Muddy but scheduled fair goes on at Green County Fair
Rain delayed opening day events at the 118th Green County Fair though Junior Fair judging proceeded in the Stock pavilion. Wet grounds required boards over mud holes and rain gear was common as temperatures stayed around 62 with a low of 58. Tonight Captain Stubby and His Buccaneers perform at 8 p.m. with grandstand admission of 1. Orville Hawthorn oversees events at Rt. 1 Monroe. Notable acts Friday include a tractor pulling contest and Rotroff All-Girl Auto Thrill Show with 1.50 admission.
