Homecraft President Greetings
Welcome to our annual 154th Brussels Fall Fair. “Let the Good Times Grow” is a wonderful theme for this year’s
fair as it will showcase the many talents of the Brussels and surrounding communities. Brussels always has a good thing
growing as we can happily say our village is thriving and doing well, and so is our annual fall fair.
Our homecraft section wouldn’t be what it is today without the awesome exhibitors who worked hard year round to
prepare, grow and create such talented items to show.
If you have never been an exhibitor at the fair, I would encourage you to take a look at our fair book, either the hard
copy or at our website: www.brusselsfallfair.ca to see what the different sections are. There’s a section for everyone!
It’s certainly a rewarding experience to see your hard work on display…with or without a ribbon attached to it. It
gives people a great sense of pride to see the beautiful flowers that they’ve grown and lovingly tended to or the homemade
bread they’ve spent hours baking. I remember as a child, racing to the arena once the doors were open to see my
schoolwork hung up on display and proudly showing my family and friends what work was mine.
In order for our fair to grow and keep the tradition alive for another 150 years, we need the next generation to
participate and get involved in homecraft. So spend time this year and help your son/daughter make something special.
Mark your calendars for this year’s fair which is happening on Tuesday, September 15 and Wednesday, September
16, 2015. There’s always lots to see and do at the Brussels Fall Fair as well as catch up with fellow neighbours and
friends. I look forward to seeing you at the Fair where there’s Family Fun for Everyone!

AMBASSADOR OF THE FAIR
Don’t blink! That is my biggest piece of advice for
the next Ambassador! My year as the 2014-2015
Brussels Fall Fair Ambassador has flown by!
Thinking back to that day in August, sitting on stage
with my fellow contestants, I had no idea I would be
crowned Ambassador, and had no idea the year that
was ahead of me! With Nicole’s and Kabrina’s
guidance I tackled a lot – from the Brussels Fall Fair
and all that it entails. Opening the Fair by cutting the
corn stalk rope, decorating a cake competing against
some fellow community members, handing out
ribbons to the 4H winners to riding in the parade – it
was two days that I will remember forever! Some
other highlights would have to be the Santa Claus
parades, wrapped in blankets and lights to keep warm.
Another extremely memorable experience was the
OAAS Convention in Toronto with the other 93 Fair
Ambassadors across Ontario, meeting new friends
and enjoying all the events that were available to us.
Some other memories from this past year include, the
District 8 Ambassador competition, where I spent the
day with my fellow district members followed by the
competition. I also got to cut the ribbon at the fourth
annual Brussels Farmer’s Market! Something I am
greatly looking forward to is the CNE weekend in
August, where I will once again meet my fellow
Ambassadors! Of course an exciting event will be
crowning my successor in August and passing on my
title to the next lucky person!
Of course I would not have had this opportunity
without the Brussels Agriculture Society. I would like
to extend my gratitude for allowing me to sit in on
your meetings and have a voice! I would also like to
thank the Ambassador co-ordinators who put so much
work not only into the competition day, but all year! I
am honoured to have been given this amazing
opportunity and will treasure it forever! It truly has
been a year to remember, and to my successor:
DON’T BLINK! The year will fly by!

Philosophical Approach to Brussels Fair – Encourage individual
voluntary student participation in a community event. Parents are urged
to allow their children to do the work and preparation of their exhibits on
their own. Encourage them, but remember that the work you do for them
defeats the purpose of the fair.
Students must exhibit according to their grades before the Summer
holidays and not according to the class they are in at the time of the fair.
Beginners may show only in open classes or where specified for
beginners. Grade 8 students who are in Grade 9 in September may enter
in the Junior Section.
Students are responsible for taking the exhibits in the Junior Section
directly to the fairgrounds, NOT TO THE SCHOOL. Exhibits are to be
at the arena auditorium on Monday evening between 7:00 p.m. and
9:00 p.m. or Tuesday by 12 noon.

Prizes for all categories will be: 1st - $4, 2nd - $3, 3rd - $2.
