Growing up green and one hundred years of 4-H in Ontario was celebrated at the Vankleek Hill Fair August 13 to 16 with hundreds of people in attendance to enjoy the shows, themidway, and the demolition derby amongst other traditional favourites. Although the weather was a little soggy as the fair got under way, the weather started to cooperate and attendees didn’t seem to mind the mud. The Horse Pull and Wild Horses Games showwere cancelled for Fri- day evening, and the Heavy Horse Show and Western Horse Show were cancelled for Saturday due to the muddy conditions. Nonetheless, people came out in droves

to enjoy this traditional favourite summer event. The fair opened up with a parade Thur- sday evening, with spectators lining the streets of Vankleek Hill. The fair continued with lots of entertainment and activities, including a midway, flower and home craft displays, a petting zoo, amodel train exhibit, home-baked goods, dancers, a mustang show, bands, and the demolition derby, a fair favourite.,. The demolition derby The derby got off to a bit of a slow start with all the mud in the pit. Wheels were spinning, cars were smoking, and crowds were cheering. “It’s usually a lot faster,” said Peter King, announcer for the derby. “The track is amess and tires are just spinning. It’s a lot better when it’s dry.” Albert Brady was very excited to win the raffle to drive one of the pit cars. Winners in the first show were Nat Burroughs in car #14 and Lance Stewart in car #8 tying for first and second place, Morgan Allen in car #2 in third place, and Denver Bates in car #15 in fourth place.
