Add a rooster to your North Thompson Fall Fair parade float entry

This year’s theme for the North Thompson Fall Fair is the pride of the chicken coop… the ‘rooster’. The Fair will also be celebrating Canada’s 150 birthday during the event, and they are inviting everyone to participate in the big Saturday parade on Sept. 2, or the family parade on the Labour Day Monday. The time is now to plan your parade attire and float, or maybe dress up the dog or even your granny. Everyone is welcome to enter the parades and there is no entry fee. Go to www.fallfair-rodeo.
