MOOSE JAW — A splash of colour, the wailing of sirens, and a whole lot of summer spirit helped kick off the 2025 Moose Jaw Hometown Fair on Thursday evening, as the annual Hometown Parade made its way down Main Street North along its traditional route.
This year’s theme, “Colours of Summer,” inspired a vibrant range of entries — from flower-adorned floats and local dance troupes in bright costumes to bedazzled princesses waving and mingling with the crowd.
“It’s one of the highlights of our year,” said George Fowler, general manager of the Moose Jaw Exhibition Company, earlier. “The energy on parade night is always incredible. You can feel the excitement building for the fair.”
Among this year’s parade entries were floats and groups representing the Friendly City Optimist Club, Tourism Moose Jaw, the Moose Jaw Police Service, Dairy Queen, Dance Images, and the always-popular Moose Jaw Shrine Club — just a few of the many community organizations, businesses, and performers that took part.
“This is one of the best ways to kick off summer,” Fowler said. “It really brings the community together.”
