As reported in our local papers the wonderful tradition of our small town fair, the first Saturday after Labour Day, is no more.  I was truly sad to read the press release announcing cancellation of Kettleby Fair.   Even though my exposure to this wonderful tradition only dates back to 2003 it had become a marker in my psyche that it was fall, that summer was over.  For many people of all ages, over the last 38 years there has been the fun of attending and the fun & satisfaction of helping it to happen by either working at the gates, setting up and working in booths, booking entertainment, preparing and selling food.

Thank you to all the volunteers who participated over the years in making the KettlebyFair so very special.
