Hometown Fair Parade 2019
Although it rained earlier in the morning, by late afternoon the skies over Moose Jaw were blue, allowing the annual Hometown Fair parade to proceed as planned.
The Moose Jaw Hometown Parade was held where colourful floats from dozens of community groups made their way down Main Street. Many of the floats reflected the theme for the year, “Candy Land.”
Sidewalk Days
A host of patrons lined up and down Main Street from Oxford Street in the north down to Manitoba Street in the south, to check out the wide variety of entertainment, activities and, a little shopping.
Saskatchewan Air Show an immense success
The final numbers confirmed a total of 37,000 people took in the two days of fun in the sun at 15 Wing during the Saskatchewan Air Show on July 6 and 7.
Canada Day in Crescent Park
Crowds came out to enjoy the annual Canada Day celebrations in Crescent Park. Hundreds of people took advantage of the beautiful weather to check out the entertainment at the amphitheatre as well as the host of activities in the living library, the wares up for offer in the farmer’s market and even some of the more artistic fare to be seen at ParkArt outside of the library.
Motif brought out the crowds
Organizers couldn’t have been happier with the return of Motif to Happy Valley.
The festival of art, dance, music and food – especially food – drew hundreds of patrons to the event through all three days, and they were treated to all the fineries of international cuisine one could want.
Festival of Words
After 23 years, the Festival of Words has blossomed into a must-attend event in the Canadian literary landscape. Featured authors, poets, and artists brought something new and exciting to the table and authors, artists, and literature-enthusiasts flocked to Moose Jaw to enjoy the beautiful venues — the Moose Jaw Public Library, the Mae Wilson Theatre, Mosaic Place, and so on — and enjoyed the quaint comfortability of the city itself.
