The Gilbert Plains – Grandview Ag Society have announced that they’re going to postpone this year’s Annual Fair and Rodeo due to COVID-19.
The fair and rodeo was set to take place in July.
Ag Society President, Kevin Boese says it was a very hard decision to make.
“Due to the circumstances we just are unable to pull everything together in this short amount of time. Even if things would open up unfortunately we kind of ran out of time, so we had to make the hard call and postpone it once again.”
The Ag Society is still hoping to host a parade this year, and will make that decision on June 10th.
Boese wants to thank the Ag Society’s sponsors and volunteers for their support.
“It takes a lot of volunteers to get something like this going. It’s probably more disappointing for the volunteers and the people who put it on than for anyone else.”
Boese hopes next year they can have their best fair and rodeo yet.
