WILLIAMSTOWN, Ontario – Attendees of all ages spent the weekend of Aug. 10 to Aug. 12 at the 207th annual Williamstown Fair.
It is expected that the fair saw between 15,000 and 18,000 people.
The three-day event incorporated a wide variety of attractions, such as constant entertainment and competitions, artisan vendors and program information booths, craft and building stations, animals shows, petting areas, vehicle shows and inflatable rides.
“Everybody seems to be having a lot of fun,” said Ron Eamer, a fair board member. “The food, the music and the competitions are great. We’ve been blessed this weekend.”
According to Eamer, organizers received multiple compliments, especially from attendees who live out of town, on the respectable cleanliness of the venue and its numerous attractions.
“It’s probably the most representative you can get of an old style country fair,” said Eamer. “We take great pride in keeping it that way and the entire board works to keep it that way. You can see the grounds are as nice as you can get anywhere with the mature trees and the lawns.”
