There is a little advertising space available in this year’s Bridge Lake Fair booklet which comes out in May and is “on the streets” until the Fair on August 20-21. A business card ad costs $15, a quarter-page is $25 and a half-page is $50. Call this writer by March 29 if you would like a space.
This year’s Container Contest requires plants to be grown in any HAT. Its prizes are generously donated by Horse Lake Garden Centre, La Petite Diane Furniture Refurbishing and Dan & Sharon.
The Fair will not have any corporate baking competitions this year, but is expected to include demonstrations, including Saori Weaving by Siana Kelly, quilling by Mai Pedersen and pencil drawing by Bryan Austerberry.
