BACK COVER 1 ANCASTER AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY’S PRESIDENT Linda Smith SECRETARY-TREASURER Kathy Smith President’s Message As summer is winding down the members/volunteers and staff of the Ancaster Agricultural Society are busy preparing for the 164th Ancaster Fair. It takes many volunteers hours and commitment to setup and take down such an event on the third weekend after Labour Day each year. The planning and organization begins as soon as one fair ends while ideas and suggestions are fresh in everyone’s minds. As this year’s President I welcome everyone to come out and have fun and experience a variety of activity for all ages. New volunteers and/or exhibitors are always welcome to join the Ancaster Agricultural Society. Please view our new and improved website or call the office if you have any questions or concerns. Hope to see you at the Fair! Linda Smith 2014 President OFFICERS FOR 2014 Andy Arth............................................ PAST PRESIDENT Linda Smith.......................................

Although we didn’t live there, my father rented the land until 1985. I joined the Ancaster Agriculture Society, to work to keep this land -Agricultural. As volunteers WE can do this. At Ancaster Fair, I believe we have one of the best pictures of education and agriculture together with Old MacDonald’s Barn. The Education Committee works hard to set up inspiring displays for learning. School Fair challenges the elementary kids and the Junior department gathers in the teens. The Heritage Commitee will be working to keep our past alive. Marritt hall will be filled with exhibits from knitting and crocheting to canning, antiques, sewing and baking. There will be something for senior citizens,wood carvers,and needle crafters. The smell of fresh flowers and hay will pass by our nostrils. New pictures in photograhy and crafts will inspire the imagination. Quilts with their brilliant colours will be draped over the racks. Women’s Institute displays and 4-H exhibits will hug the walls. Vegetables and fruits will grace the display tables. Then there are the cows,the sheep, the horses,the goats,the chickens,the ducks and the geese. We have the midway,consumer products and the service clubs. What a “Great Learning Experience.’’ As Homecraft President for 2014, I look forward to seeing the many entries and meeting exhibitors. Come to Our Fair- “There is lots to see and do for kids from 1-92” Carolyn Fair-Marsh.

Six years after moving to the new fairgrounds we continue to see new and exciting things come to the fair. The fair is an important event that helps close the gap between the rural and urban areas and allows visitors to gain an understanding of the importance of agriculture within and outside their community. Every year our exhibitors continue to fill our buildings with everything from quilts, baking and photography, to field crops, vegetables and livestock. Of course none of this would be possible without our dedicated volunteers and staff who help to put on the fair year after year. In my year as ambassador so far I have attended several events such as the District 6 fall meeting, OAAS Convention, the Spring Discovery show, and the Homecraft Luncheon. I am currently looking forward to the CNE Ambassador of the Fairs competition held in Toronto during the CNE. If you or someone you know is interested in becoming our next ambassador please contact the office, ambassador committee or catch me during fair time for more information about the fair’s ambassador program. With summer underway fair time still feels ages away but don’t forget to leave September 18th through 21st open so you can come out and enjoy the fair. I hope to see you all there.
