By RVC Ag Society September 7, 2023

The 34th annual Chestermere Country Fair is this Saturday, and it's sure to be a day that will keep your family busy all day long.

Red Ribbon entries are accepted from 11:00 am - 6:00 pm at the Chestermere Rec Centre. The Red Ribbon Competition is a bench show, which is a term used to describe a competition where you may enter your best baking sewing, handicrafts, cooking, artwork and photography (plus more) for the chance to win a 1st, 2nd or 3rd place ribbon and maybe even a trophy! There are some cash prizes as well.
