HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Kansas State Fair Board will have a meeting Wednesday afternoon on Zoom and in the Cottonwood Court at the Kansas State Fairgrounds.
On the agenda for Wednesday's 1 p.m. meeting is routine business to allow the meeting to be conducted online, approval of previous minutes and then a look at the financial report for the fair, along with a report from interim General Manager David Tobias. Also, there is an update on the September Livestock Show and the Board will look at whether or not they can find a way to show static 4-H Exhibits this year.
The board will then go into executive session with Deputy Attorney General Athena Andaya.
Kansas State Senator Ed Berger tells Hutch Post that the fair only has a few months of operating capital if it doesn't get help from state government, but a plan is in place to have Governor Laura Kelly approach the State Finance Council for assistance on the matter soon.
