Mr. Chris McBrien of the Barrie Fair, provided a presentation regarding the 2014 Barrie Fair. He advised that the first Fall Fair was held in 1853 and as a result the Barrie Fair is celebrating its 161th Anniversary this year. Mr. McBrien commented that the Fair provides an opportunity for community, and particularly youth to connect with rural settings, history and heritage. He provided an overview of activities that will be held as part of this year’s Barrie Fair, including promotion of local food growers and local heritage as well as numerous youth oriented events.
Mr. McBrien observed that the for the last 160 years, the Fair has not focused on city limits, but community as a whole and it needs the City’s help to attract people from outside of the community. He requested support from the City in order to keep the tradition alive and noted that the Fair is just outside of town, where the city and country meet.
