Two competing groups are rushing to finalize plans for the 80th Northern Navajo Nation Shiprock Fair, slated for October 2-5.

Shiprock Northern Navajo Fair Inc. has been running the popular event for several years. But local Navajo leaders have created a new entity, the Northern Navajo Nation Fair board, to run the show.

Each group is seeking approval to use the same plot of land for the fair.
