The Agrimex show is returning to the Battlefords Ag Society grounds for its 30th anniversary year and preparations are already well under way for it.
Ag Society general manager Jocelyn Ritchie confirms the home, trade and farm show will run April 9, 10 and 11 at both the Agriplex and Agrivilla buildings.
“We have everything from home products, gardening, farm equipment, financial information, clothing, jewelry, something for everyone,” said Ritchie.
She says there will be several returning displays as well as a few new ones. There will again be some outdoor displays between the buildings.
A pancake breakfast will be hosted around 9 a.m. Saturday, April 11 will, which will be free of charge to the public. Everyone is encouraged to attend.
The cost of admission is $3, but Ritchie said there will be free admission passes available at businesses throughout the city. Paid admission makes visitors eligible to enter a draw to win $1,500.
Hours will be noon to 9 p.m. Thursday and Friday, and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday.
The show is a popular one with the public.
“We hope to have 5,000 people go through the door for the three days of our show,” said Ritchie.
More than 100 booths are expected and while most of them are already booked, Ritchie says some are still available.
“We still have some left,” said Ritchie, so if anyone still wishes to set one up “we encourage them to call and we’ll get them in.”
