Cabell County fair canceled as coronavirus cases increase

CABELL COUNTY, W.Va. — The Cabell County Fair has been canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The Cabell County Fair Board made the decision on Monday because of limitations on large gatherings.

Gov. Jim Justice issued an executive order earlier in the day limiting gatherings to 25 people as the number of coronavirus cases in West Virginia continues rising.

Plans regarding the livestock show and agriculture events have yet to be determined.
