Richland County Fair Addresses Lactating Cattle issues

On Thursday, the Richland County Fair announced that this year, they will NOT be hosting lactating dairy cattle at the Richland County Fair. Due to the H5N1 virus, they are choosing to limit the spread of any possibly infected cattle. Instead they will be hosting a virtual dairy show. In additional, ALL LIVESTOCK move in on Wednesday, September 4th. No livestock will be moved in on Thursday. For further questions, call the fairgrounds at (608) 647-6859.
