The Dauphin Ag Society's AGM ran the numbers for 2024, and things are looking good.
General operating costs were down by nearly $26,000, partly due to a revenue boost from the RCMP musical ride.
The fair broke records this year, pulling just over $210,000 in total revenue, and $84,766 in net income.
This success led to the decision that $15,000 would be contributed to Dauphin Rec Services for upkeep and improvement on the grounds.
Farm Outlook also nearly doubled its net income, with marked savings in speakers.
1st Vice President Jason Beyette noted that 2024 was "A tremendously successful year financially, despite some hardships", such as the massive down poor that attempted to rain out the fair.
After the fiscal review, an organizational meeting took place, during which a set of members were elected to cover various positions in the Ag Society.
Terron Stykalo was once again nominated and elected as president. The first vice president also remained as Jason Bayette.
Many of the positions were taken up by their previous incumbents, or delegated to a committee.
A few roles were left unfilled temporarily, sponsorships, indoor attractions, and police & traffic.
The Dauphin Agricultural Society is always seeking new members to take part in organizing some of the city's biggest events.
Some critical roles, including sponsorships, indoor attractions, and police and traffic will be filled at the next meeting, on November 28th.
