Darren Doyle, story and photos:
The crowd was rolling in steadily tonight at the Edmonson County Fair to check out the mud bog and the new and improved carnival.

Fair Board Chairman Donnie Turley said he was pleased with both the crowd so far and the new carnival.

"We're always glad to see this crowd out at the fair," he said. "We've heard a lot of good things about how people are enjoying the carnival. Both kids and adults. Our opening night with the truck pull had a great crowd. The rain hurt us a little but hopefully people will continue coming out through Saturday night. We appreciate all the support so far."

The annual Fair Day Parade is Friday, September 8th at 9AM and will be livestreamed on the Edmonson Voice. The mud run will be featured on Friday night with the finale on Saturday night with the demolition derby.

Friday Fair Day carnival activities will run from 10AM to 3PM. The Fair will reopen at 5PM on Friday night and go until 11PM with Saturday night opening at 5PM and running until midnight.

Admission is $15 per person, per night with those under 32 inches getting in free.
