After four days at the Saanich Fair (including the preparation + inspection day); nonstop work and long days, I finally needed a moment to slow down.
And today, I finally got that moment.
After being so busy for many days, it felt good to finally pause, breathe, and enjoy it with my family. I had the chance to walk around and take everything in.
I would like to thank so many of the incredible people who worked tirelessly to make the Saanich Fair happen.
To the entire Saanich Fair team, Dave and Kari, organizers, volunteers, and everyone who worked behind the scenes. It takes so many people working together to create something this special, and I’m truly grateful to have been part of it.
To all of our amazing customers, thank you for stopping by and supporting us. Every interaction, every purchase, and every bit of encouragement meant so much to us.
A very special thank you to my dad and my cousin for being there, helping me through the long days. I truly couldn’t have done it without you.
And finally, a special thank you to Noel Pike. If it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t be here today. We’re grateful to be able to be part of something he helped build and to continue that tradition.
Until next time!! See you all again in Sidney Street Market (Thursday, Sept 10) and Esquimalt Ribfest (Friday to Sunday, Sept 11 to 13).
