CELEBRATING 192 YEARS

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Welcome everyone to the 192nd KINGSTON FALL FAIR! 

The Kingston & District Agricultural Society is a volunteer-based organization that is run by our many volunteers, with the assistance of our Office Manager, Ellen Mortfield, and we all work throughout the entire year devoting time to present this fair every year….for 192 years to be exact! We strive to present a full program of agricultural events, as well as a variety of entertainment. 

We are proud to partner with our local Rotary Clubs who help us operate our gates during the Fair, in return for a donation. This money stays in Kingston to assist the many programs that Rotary supports. This year we are partnering with The Buckle in Kingston, who will be presenting the Country Singing Showdown. Our Country Singing Showdown has had a very successful 25-year history, but with the retirement of the original committee, we are pleased that The Buckle has stepped up to help us carry on this very important competition. 

I wish to thank each and every volunteer, my Board of Directors, all sponsors, and Kingston area residents in general for supporting our Fair. Each year our attendance goes up, which tells us we are doing a good job.

We are always looking for more volunteers. If you are interested in becoming a part of this wonderful organization, please contact us at 613 542-6701 ex. 2.

Yvonne Compton, President
