Storms closed down the Shelby County Fair last Friday and postponed the demolition derby from the final night on Saturday.
However, Fair board president Jeff Pruitt is still optimistic about the fair as it made the move to June from its former date around the 4th of July.
While the fair itself is over Pruitt says they are gearing up for more at the fairgrounds over the coming weeks and months.
Pruitt took over as board president this year. Elections in the fall will further set the direction of the fairgrounds.
