Possibility of Frederick Fair Cancellation Rumors Rise
Preparations for the Frederick Fair renewals proceed for September as officials weigh reports of possible dates cancellation. Albert N. McCardell, president of the Frederick County Agricultural Society, said directors will decide in 30 to 60 days if exhibitions for the week of September 23 can proceed after a two year layoff. Some say the government may use fairground buildings for housing needs, but society leaders decline to confirm or deny. Contracts for grandstand and midway attractions have been signed, adding pressure to proceed with plans, though no changes to the five day and five night program are being considered.
