Mundare Mayor Cheryl Calinoiu couldn’t have been happier with how Agri-Days turned out and said the town employee’s put in a lot of hard work and did a fantastic job to get everything ready for the annual event.

The Mundare Fire Department put on a number of events and Calinoiu was very grateful for the generosity of their volunteer members. The fire department hosted a pancake breakfast along with a keg roll, tug of war, kid’s competitions and pie throwing fundraiser. Chief Glenda Dales said they had over 300 people for breakfast and raised $350 for the new fire station.

It was an extremely hot day, and Calinoiu was happy the Mundare Agricultural Society was able to keep the vendors cool with canopy tents during the street market.

The parade is always a crowd favourite and there were more than 30 entries for the event. Calinoiu said Parade Marshall Allen Dubyk did a wonderful job and was more than happy with the number of parade entries.

Bench Show Chair Irene Talaga said they had 47 exhibitors. “The flowers were spectacular,” said Talaga. She was also happy they were able to bring back handicrafts to the show and was pleased with the entries in a variety of different categories from youth, (10 and under) and 11 to 17 years of age.
