SOUTH BEND — The St. Joseph County 4-H Fair announced at about 5 p.m. that the fairgrounds had lost power.

"We are NOT closed," a post on Facebook reads. "The Midway is still open, which means the rides are going. SOME food vendors are still able to be open."

The fair said it would update its Facebook post once power is restored.
