Need a Summer project idea?

help you find your new favourite appliance that’ll last you through the Summer months!

We’ll be here to help you every step of the way, everything you need is right here!

Personalize your backyard with a deck and some new patio furniture! A deck extends the living space of a home to the outdoors, providing you and your family with an area to relax, entertain and enjoy the summer. A deck will also increase the resale value of your home. The more time and thought you invest in the planning and prep stages, the more use you will get from your deck.

• Choose from a variety of materials to enhance the finishing and add decorative items to help define different activity zones.

• Start the planning process by gathering deck design ideas, then plan the deck on paper.

• Begin with the overall dimensions, then gradually add more detail as the design takes shape.

August 2018 will mark the 108th Abbotsford AGRIFAIR. A lot has changed in the past 108 years!

Family dynamics have changed – no longer is the nuclear family considered the “norm”. Now there are blended families, working parents, co-parenting, an entire generation who values volunteerism and community participation. This is the family of today, and Agrifair is an integral part of enriching family life in our diverse and inclusive community.

Community neighbors are coming closer together, feeling the need to be a part of something bigger, something important. Agrifair takes the role of community leader very seriously and celebrates our past and embraces the future through fun, family events and education.

People are bombarded with so much negativity in the world – day to day and minute to minute, Agrifair’s board of directors and staff felt that after celebrating Canada’s 150th last year – we still have reason to celebrate!

We invite you to celebrate Family and Community with us August 3-5. Come and see the RCMP Musical Ride perform daily with Salutes to various first responders, the new Dock Dog show where YOU can enter your family pup in a water competition, watch the new Dally & Spanky show where best friends (a Jack Russell terrier rides a Shetland Pony) perform as part of the Horse show, try your hand a

being a “lumberjack” while watching the Laughing Logger show and on Saturday only the Logger Sport Competition. We haven’t forgotten about the family returning favorites featuring the Racing Pig & Duck show, Motorsports Arena action with demolition derby and the thrilling FMX bike guys, Pro Wrestling, Antique Farm Machinery demos, the multitude of 4-H exhibitors and competitors, LEGO and Shooting Star Midway. NOT enough? How about evening concerts?

Friday is a showcase of Multi-Culturalism, Saturday headliner JoJo Mason, Sunday a Praise in the Park time closing with Citizen Way. Still not satisfied; how about all our strolling entertainment? There is just too much to write about. Check our website for details and keep watching because we keep adding to the CELEBRATION for FAMILIES and our COMMUNITY!

Kids 10 and under are FREE!! Full pricing on web.

Gallery 7 Theatre Announces 2018/2019

Back to Classics Theatre Season

Fraser Valley audiences are in for an exciting and entertaining year of classic productions as Gallery 7 Theatre presents its 28th annual season of theatre starting in September. Featuring a diverse and delightful mix of fullscale plays, a musical, a short-play festival, a seasonal offering of Christmas music and stories in partnership with Vancouver’s Pacific Theatre, and a super-fun, super-clean, family-friendly comedy improv night, the season is guaranteed to captivate, engage, and inspire.

The mainstage season launches in November with a production of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, adapted by Canadian playwright, Tom Wood. The season continues in January with a production of Beau Jest, a hilarious comedy by James Sherman about family, romance, and living life authentically. In March, musical theatre fans will delight in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s beloved musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. With lyrics by Tim Rice, the irresistible family musical tells the Bible story of Joseph and his coat of many colours. The mainstage series concludes with Gallery 7 Theatre’s first-ever production of a Shakespeare play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, arguably one of The Bard’s most famous comedies.

In September, the theatre will host its second annual one-act play showcase, now called Abby Theatre Fest. The festival will feature an eclectic mix of short plays that are sure to challenge and stretch boundaries while showcasing the talents of emerging and established directors, actors and designers from through-out the Lower Mainland. “If you’re looking for something different and something edgy, be sure to attend this year’s shortplay festival,” encourages Ken Hildebrandt, Gallery 7’s Artistic Director.

In December, Gallery 7 will partner with Vancouver’s Pacific Theatre in presenting Christmas Presence, an annual favourite featuring a potpourri of seasonal music and stories sure to lift spirits just in time for the holidays.

Then, in March, the always funny, always amazing Panic Squad and Friends will take to the stage with their unique brand of hilarious clean comedy improv.
