SUMMER FAIR 1994

(For more articles on PAEX click HERE)

Where Town & Country Meet - JULY 25th to JULY 30th

The Prince Albert Exhibition Association has a new image and what better place to launch the new logo and slogan than at the 111th Summer Fair. The Fair is truly a place "where town and country meet" and the many exhibits and shows invite both urban and rural participants to show off a little, to exchange ideas and make new friends. But when the fair is over, the volunteers and staff of the Association have plenty to do, running the Gold Rush Casino, renting space and equipment all year round. The grounds, grandstand, barns, Exhibition centre and camping facilities are constantly in demand for livestock shows, sporting and cultural events, hobby and craft shows, religious gatherings or travelling entertainment.
