Navajo Fair Scrambles For Barbecue Amid Peel Shortage
Navajo tribal officials warn the annual fair in Window Rock faces beef shortages as ranchers donate meat. Fair Commissioner John Nelson Dee says steers are costly this year, forcing the tribe to purchase and slaughter beef. Tribal Chairman Peter Mac Donald opts not to charge for barbecue. The fair typically draws 96,000 to 150,000 visitors to the northeastern Arizona Reservation.
