Eyebrow Fair a tribute to volunteers, sponsors

28th edition offers friendly competition, food and fun.

EYEBROWN, Sask. — The 28th edition of the annual Eyebrow Fair is in the books.

How this village of 118 puts together a one-day fair featuring multiple events is a mystery to many observers.

Wanda White, one of the small corps of key volunteers explained how it’s done.

“We really appreciate our volunteers and sponsors. Without them we couldn’t do this.”

The village and district support the fair by volunteering, sponsoring and attending the free fair.

Events run the gamut from the horse show in the arena, many tables of home baking and craft entries to a four-team slo-pitch tournament, a pancake breakfast, parade, supper, cabaret and fireworks.

This year’s horse show drew about 30 horse and rider entries.

Organizers noted two other horse shows in the region attracted riders who would have come to Eyebrow.

The horse show had a large number of new classes geared to youngsters.

Bouncy castles were supplemented by a candy in the hay hunt for kids.

Detour Country from Regina entertained at the cabaret after the chicken dinner.

The pie booth was busy selling slices of homemade pie.
