KIRKSVILLE, MO. -- An annual air fest was in jeopardy of not happening, but it will go on after all.

The Kirksville Regional Airport Director David Hall announced at Tuesday's Airport and Transportation Commission that Cape Air's Kirksville Air Fest, which was in danger of being canceled because of a fundraising shortage, looks like it will now go on. 

"I'm pleased to report that there's been a rally, and that we'll certainly be able to have the show and have the funds rounded up by the tenth."

The 2012 air fest is set for Sunday, Sept. 9 at 2 p.m.
