EVERYBODY PLAYS A PART

Wow! This will be the 58th year for the Annual North Thompson Fall Fair & Rodeo. 
   An event that started before many of us were born has turned into a major North 
   Thompson Valley event and has been recognized provincially for its excellence. 
   The fair's continued growth and success is a testament to the hundreds of dedicated 
   people who step forward each year to lend a hand and create great memories for 
   the thousands who walk through our gates. 

The theme of the fair this year is POULTRY. Start planning now what you will be 
   entering in the 2007 competitions – plant a few extra veggies, grow another bed 
   of flowers, crank-up the sewing machine. 

Whether your talent lies in baking, gardening, woodworking, hobbies, quilting or 
   more, you will find a full contingent of classes available to enter. 
   Our livestock exhibitors and heavy horse competitors fill their classes and the 
   'gentle giants' bring a special flavour of times gone by – they show our visitors 
   what raising quality animals and agriculture is all about. 

The rodeo contestants provide the thrills and spills and the pony chariots and 
   chuckwagons give everyone an opportunity to cheer. I would like to take this 
   opportunity to invite all of the wonderful contestants, competitors, commercial exhibitors, 
   and parade participants who continue to help bring three days of top agricultural 
   entertainment into the valley. 

The NTFFRA members and our 100 plus volunteers are looking forward to working 
   with you again at this year's event. 

It's time to 'Cowboy Up!'
