ESTEVAN - Estevan Exhibition Association (EEA) announced their plans for the 2022 Energy City Ex.

Just as they wanted before the pandemic, they are planning to host the fair and rodeo at the same time over four days in June.

The Energy City Ex is scheduled for June 9-12, with Midway occurring over all four days, and the KCRA Rodeo coming to town on the weekend, which is the later days of the event.

"Back in 2020, we were hoping to get the fair and rodeo back together. And of course, we couldn't do that. So that is our plan here to get the fair in the rodeo back together," said Stacey Holtz, the EEA board member.

The KCRA Rodeo Circuit was the one to bring the rodeo to Estevan in 2021, which turned out to be very popular with the community. This year, they will once again bring a more-family oriented event to Energy City. But this time it will be also complemented with the fair.

Holtz said that they've been discussing the plans for the 2022 season for a while now.

"Since last summer, it's been tentative, and we've been continuing to work on it all throughout the pandemic. Last year, of course, we could only have the rodeo, as the Midway wasn't travelling around, which was unfortunate," Holtz said.

"But this has always been in the back of our mind that we still wanted to do this, get the fair and the rodeo back together. So here we are, and as long as everything goes well with the restrictions, it should go on."

The Mercury will have more details as they become available.
