The first Fair organized by an agriculture society is believed to have been held at Queenston, but because of lack of support it failed. However, the Frontenac Agricultural Society Fair held in Kingston in 1825 waS a more elaborate affair and aroused wide interest. In Ontario there are at present approximately 230 Fall Fairs. The fairs provide a good reason for people to return to the towns and villages where they grew up, to meet relatives and friends. The showing and judging of animals, vegetables and grain crops were the main interest at the fairs, along with home sewing, baking and preserves. Coldwater wiil be conducting its 87th annual fair on Sept. 26 and 27. Mark it on your calendar and come and enjoy the fun. There is something to interest everyone.
