Obviously, if the governor of Illinois puts forth an executive order of the sort you quote there certainly will not be racing on either of the mile dirt tracks at Springfield and Du Quoin.

I would fear for the future of both fair events if in fact they are cancelled. Given the dire financial circumstances of the State of Illinois and more specifically a total cancellation of either one or both fair's at this point could be a tipping point. Let's hope that doesn't become an issue. August and September is a long way off. A lot can happen between now and them and lets hope its positive as opposed to negative
