Many folks turned out for St. Vital Agricultural Society’s Annual Display and Fair event on Aug. 5 and 6 at the St. Vital Centennial Arena.

Depending on what time visitors attended, they had the chance to enjoy an annual barbecue, pancake breakfast and hotdog lunch. The second day also featured a farmers’ and crafters’ market, as well as children’s activities.

Of course, there were different demonstrations, too, as well as a plethora of competition entries in numerous categories.

This was the first time the society was able to hold its flagship event since 2019 due to pandemic restrictions.
