HUTCHINSON, Kan. (AP) — The chances of the Kansas State Fair being held this year are looking less likely after a large number of vendors backed out or expressed trepidation.

The Hutchinson News reports that the fair's board will meet Monday to reconsider its decision to hold the event in September.

Kansas State Fair general manager Robin Jennison said it was beginning to appear the fair would be financially worse off going forward than not having it.

The organization cannot operate in the red.
