Photos and Text by Robert Thomas
The bleachers were full and dozens sat in the grass to watch the first performance of the RCMP Musical Ride on Friday evening.
Dressed in their traditional dress red serge members of the troupe performed a show dating back to the days of their predecessor the North West Mounted Police.
The crowd was appreciative to the show with many accepting the invitation afterwards to chat, ask questions and have their pictures taken with a Mountie in their ceremonial red serge uniforms.
There are three more performances of the Musical Ride during the Moose Jaw Hometown Fair.
The performance times are:
Saturday, June 25 at 3:00 pm & 8:00 pm
