The weather was ideal for an influx of visitors to Roblin this past weekend for their annual Rodeo & Fair.

Roblin Ag Society President Dean Chescu says gate receipts were very strong, which will allow them to do some renovations to the arena and fairgrounds.

He adds a personal highlight for himself was the Li'l Britches Rodeo.

"We have been doing this for about six years now, and it is very well attended.  The youngsters really seem to get into it.  My grandson came all the way from Saskatchewan to take part in it.  They seem to get quite excited about it, especially some of the young ones.  I think one of the competitors was only two years old."

He adds preparations for next year's Fair are well underway, but says they're looking for a few more people to join the Roblin Ag Society Board to help them plan the event.
