Logan County Extension Office starts on new expo facility

RUSSELLVILLE, Ky. – The UK Extension Office in Logan County is building a new outdoor expo center that it plans to use for a variety of events.

The facility is being designed with a variety of motorized events, such as tractor pulls, monster trucks and motocross, as well as having the ability to host concerts and more.

Leann Martin with the office hopes that the new arena will raise the profile of Logan County.

“This outdoor facility gives a different perspective, a different opportunities where some things indoor can be hindered in size. We want to be able to branch that out and make larger facilities for a larger outdoor space,” Martin said.

Though it is only an empty field at the moment, the office hopes to have the arena open and ready for use by June.
