Lesley English – 2013 Markham Fair President

Dear Exhibitors,

On behalf of the Markham and East York Agricultural Society, I would like to extend a great BIG HELLO to all exhibitors of our 169th Fair.

In being an agricultural society part of our duty “is to hold annual agricultural exhibitions featuring competitions for which prizes are awarded”. Whether you have exhibited at the Fair for years or if you are considering entering for the first time, the Board of Directors would like to welcome everyone and say thank you.

Exhibits are a huge part of our show because without them, our building display cases and livestock barns would be empty. We do recognize however, that it can be very time consuming to bring your amazing exhibits to the fair. So we extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to all who come from far and wide for taking the time to share with us. Thanks for your art & antiques, crafts & clydesdales, holsteins & homemade quilts, pigeons & pies, and your rabbits & roses. No matter what your category or class, we are glad you choose to participate.

In return for contributing your animals and displays, we hope you each enjoy the Fair experience and the feeling of pride you have all earned. Everyone who unselfishly shares their exhibits for all to enjoy is truly a winner! We wish everyone the best of luck and thank you again for helping to make our Fair outstanding.

See you at the Fair,

Lesley English, President,
