President’s Message
Dear Friends and Fellow Fairgoers,
Here we are at the 168th edition of the Shawville Fair! Our board is excited to gather once again to celebrate our community.
This year, our fair promises to be more exciting than ever. From the electrifying performances under the new big top circus tent, to the impressive displays of the canine circus dog show, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
At the heart of our festivities lies our commitment to agriculture. As we witness the bustling activity in the livestock competitions and agricultural exhibitions, we are reminded of the dedication and hard work of our local farmers. They are the backbone of our community, and their contributions continue to ensure the prosperity and sustainability of agriculture in the Pontiac region.
The Shawville Fair has always been more than just a gathering; it is a time to come together, celebrate our achievements, and embrace our agricultural traditions. Whether you are a longtime resident or a visitor exploring our fair for the first time, I encourage you to immerse yourself in the festivity of this event.
As we come up to this year's fair, let us celebrate the past, present, and future of our beloved Shawville Fair and the legacy of agriculture in the Pontiac.
I would also like to thank the thousands of volunteer hours our community puts in to make this a great success! Thank you all for being part of this wonderful tradition.
Enjoy the fair!
Ralph Lang
President, Shawville Fair 2024
