The Harrison County Fair Board has announced that the fair in 2020 is canceled.  Also, the Missouri Valley Chamber of Commerce, in charge of the Harrison County Fair Parade, has announced that the parade is canceled.  These decisions were made in conjunction with information from the Harrison County Home & Public Health, Harrison County Emergency Management, and CHI Health.  These actions were taken to avoid unnecessary spread of Covid-19, when large groups are in close proximity.  Both the Fair and Parade will resume in 2021.
