Fair Attendance Down

While weather impacted events at this past weekend's fall fair in Emo, attendance was down only slightly.

The Rainy River Valley Agricultural Society's about 66-hundred people passed through the gates during fair weekend.

That about 650 fewer than last season.

Despite the rain, most events such as the parade, horse and cattle shows continued.

The second night of stock car racing was washed out.
