SIDNEY – More work has been completed on the Beige Building at the Shelby County Fairgrounds while another proposed project has been shelved for now.
During its monthly meeting on Wednesday, Shelby County Fair Board members learned gutters have been installed on the Beige Building. A new water heater also has been installed to replace the old one that was leaking.
The board has completed several projects at the building during the past several months, including renovation of the restrooms, ceiling and kitchen floors. An Ohio Department of Agriculture grant funded renovations to the building.
Cattle weigh-in procedures change for 2021 fair

SIDNEY – Cattle weigh-in procedures will change for the 2021 Shelby County Fair, the Fair Board learned during the Dec. 16 monthly meeting.
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, exhibitors will be given a tag for their cattle instead of having a traditional weigh-in day, Fair Board member Cathy Platfoot reported. Exhibitors then will need to submit photographs along with their entries.
The new system is similar to how Auglaize and Logan counties are handling tagging, Platfoot said, and also is in line with procedures used for other species of animals at the Shelby County Fair.
