The 2020 Fisher Fair has been canceled due to COVID-19.

The annual fair to be held July 7-11 always includes a queen pageant, tractor and truck pulls, horse show, livestock shows, a car show, demolition derby and a 5K Walk.

The health and safety of our community, exhibitors, fair-goers, sponsors, vendors and volunteers remains our top priority,” a statement released on the Fisher Fair website says. “We have worked closely with public health officials and with their recommendation the fair has been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

“The board looks forward to planning and seeing everyone at the 80th Fisher Community Fair in 2021! We are thankful and blessed to have a community to support us.”
