Weather impacts Worcester County Fair

 (WMDT)

SNOW HILL, Md. – Due to forecasted inclement weather, Friday’s Worcester County Fair festivities will move indoors to the recreation center in Snow Hill.

Beginning at 4:30 p.m., county officials will hold a ribbon cutting ceremony to kick off the fair. The cake auction kicks off at 5 p.m.

The event will be food trucks, live music, vendors, exhibits, and children’s activities including a bounce house, carnival games, and face painting. The 4H livestock tent will be open Friday evening, with the showing scheduled to take place contingent on weather conditions.

Due to the forecast, the Jimmy Charles Band concert will not take place on Friday. Officials say they are working to reschedule the concert to take place at an upcoming county event.
