WESTERN FAIR A SUCCESS



WESTERN FAIR ORGANIZERS COULDN'T ASK FOR BETTER



Sunday marked the last day of what may be one of the best weather years for the Western Fair.


This years the fair did not experience any rain and with seasonal temperatures the attendance levels were high.

Final attendance numbers for the fair were not available yet but are expected to be very high.More than 35,000 people walked through the gates Saturday, compared to 15,600 on the same day last year and it looked like attendance numbers would hit 30,000 yesterday, compared to 24,724 on the final fair day last year.

Topping the favourite rides this year was the "skyride" the runs 12 meters above the fair. A ride that the whole family can enjoy.

This year the fair brought great shows, great rides and of coarse great food! This year's favourite was Bacon with Chocolate Sauce.

It's come and gone but this year's Western Fair may just be remembered as the best year ever and a great end to Summer 2009.
