Aldergrove Fair Days came to a close Sunday afternoon, July 17, at Aldergrove Athletic Park with That 70鈥檚 band taking the main stage to play classic tunes of the era.

There was square dancing, a lawn tractor pulling contest (with the mowing blades removed) as well an antique tractor pull demonstration, along with the final day of the quick draw contest and a demonstration of dog agility, among other popular draws.

On Saturday, the fair saw 8,000 visitors attend the longest of the four days, running from 9 a.m. to about 10:30.

Fire restrictions forced cancellation of the fireworks, but the fair improvised a substitute using the giant video display and confetti cannons.

Robin McIntosh, fair president, assured the 91原创 Advance Times the confetti was biodegradable.

鈥淲e鈥檙e still picking it up,鈥 he laughed.

It was the first in-person fair since the pandemic, and the most ambitious, with events running over four days.

McIntosh hopes to expand the run-up to the fair adding more days of advance events next year.
