Photos From Saturday At The Moose Jaw Home Town Fair

Photos by Robert Thomas

We went out on our annual tradition to go take some candid photos of the sights at the Moose Jaw Home Town Fair on Saturday.

The earlier forecasted showers for Saturday did not occur but rather the sky was most sunny with a slight breeze. Almost a carbon copy of Thursday’s great weather for the parade.

The great weather brought of throngs of people who swarmed food vendors in search of cold drinks or snow cones.

The daytime seemed to be made up of many younger children and their parents while the evening was taken over by the teenage crowd.

This is not all of the events but just a sampling.

The Fair - Midway - runs today (Sunday) from Noon until 8 pm.

These riders look like they’re having a great time…

…while the hair here was blowing in the wind…

….while these guys look like they’re simply out for a chat…

…in this one the riders are sliding to one side.

That’s a wrap for our candid photos for this year.
