The annual Eyebrow Fair was one of the most active in its 25 year plus history, as folks from Eyebrow and surrounding communities gathered to visit and participate.
The morning started with a real farmer-style pancake breakfast – three pancakes, two slices of ham, and two fried eggs for only $5. The special breakfast was courtesy of the folks at nearby Tugaske in appreciation of support for their new fire hall.
Conversation in the beer garden with a horse trailer acting as the bar revolved around the state of crops, which need rain soon. Competing with horse shows in Moose Jaw and Swift Current, the equestrian events still had 25 horses in various classes.
Teams competed for supremacy in the slo-pitch tournament.
Youngsters hustled in a straw bed looking for hidden candies, while others played in the bouncy castles or had faces painted like their favourite cartoon character.
A parade of vintage vehicles came down the streets.
The pie booth was busy. Some visitors came more than once for pie.
The afternoon ended with a beef supper, dancing to Brandon and Company, and fireworks.
