What an incredible year for our Ambassador Leadership Program! A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make this yearโ€™s program such a success, from our generous sponsors and dedicated volunteers to the amazing youth who took the stage!

๐Ÿ’š Miigwech to the Truth and Reconciliation Committee Bobcaygeon for sharing a meaningful land acknowledgment and helping us recognize the importance of the land and community we call home.

๐ŸŽค A special thank you to our wonderful MC, Jennine Profeta, for guiding us through the program, and to Pieter van Oudenaren, President of the Bobcaygeon Agricultural Society, for officially opening the fair!

๐ŸŽ We are incredibly fortunate to have such generous local sponsors who support our youth and contribute to our ambassador prize packages. Your generosity helps make this program special, and we are so grateful for your continued support of our community and its future leaders.

๐Ÿ‘ A huge thank you to our dedicated volunteers who work behind the scenes to make this program possible. Your time, commitment, and enthusiasm are invaluable!

Our Ambassador Leadership Program provides young people with opportunities to build confidence, develop leadership skills, promote our fair and celebrate the importance of community involvement and agriculture. We love seeing our youth grow through this experience and look forward to watching them represent Bobcaygeon at local events in the year ahead.

๐Ÿ’ A heartfelt thank you to our outgoing Senior Ambassador, Sarah Dewey! Sarah has done an incredible job representing the Bobcaygeon Fall Fair and demonstrating the importance of community engagement. Her enthusiasm and commitment to the program have made a lasting impression, and we are excited to see what she accomplishes next!

๐Ÿ‘‘ Congratulations to our new Senior Ambassador, Zephyr Ball! We are thrilled to welcome you into this role and look forward to seeing you represent our fair and community throughout the coming year.

๐ŸŒŸ Congratulations to our Junior Ambassadors: Jorja, Lily, Maddison, Milana, Madi, Payton, and Shannon! We are excited to see you develop your leadership skills, make new connections, and take part in the many opportunities ahead.

๐ŸŽ‰ And what a fantastic turnout from our Mini Ambassadors! A whopping 17 Mini Ambassadors hit the stage this year! Congratulations to each and every one of you. Your enthusiasm and willingness to get involved are what make this program so special.

From our youngest participants to our Senior Ambassador, we are proud of every youth who stepped forward to represent the Bobcaygeon Fall Fair.

Hereโ€™s to another year of celebrating community, agriculture, leadership, and the bright future of our youth! ๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒพ

One of our favourite Fair traditions ๐ŸŒพ๐Ÿ„โค๏ธ

For approximately 15 years, students from Bobcaygeon Public School and kids bussed in from surrounding communities have been invited to join us for a special Agriculture Education Day โ€” completely free of charge.

Today, students had the chance to step outside the classroom and experience agriculture firsthand, learning more about where our food comes from, the animals, people and work behind it, and the important role agriculture plays in our community.

Itโ€™s an opportunity for local kids to learn, explore, ask questions and experience a little piece of the Fair โ€” made possible year after year by the incredible volunteers who generously give their time and share their knowledge and passion for agriculture.

Weโ€™re so proud to continue providing this experience for the next generation of our community. ๐ŸŒฑ

A huge thank you to our volunteers, educators and everyone who helps make Ag Education Day possible!
