A new event called “Ribs at the Races” got the thumbs up as people streamed into the Multiplex to sample some delicious recipes.

The First Annual Pork Rib Cook Off featured 14 entries of different rib recipes for patrons to chow down on and then judge for themselves which was the best.

The event was held on Saturday, July 15, in conjunction with the annual Chariot and Chuckwagon races on the Stampede Grounds.

By buying a plate for $10, people could try out all 14 finger licking flavours of ribs for themselves, then vote on their favourite.

Word of mouth went very quickly about the delicious food served at this first annual event. So much so that it is sure to be back by popular demand next year.

The 24th Annual Kinsella Graveldome Bullarama bucked out of the chutes on the evening of Wednesday, July 12. The event started off with a delay as the required ambulance team were called out for an emergency, but once they rolled back onto the grounds, riders and bulls were raring to go.

The event is put on by the Kinsella Rec and Ag Society, and each year they make sure it is bigger and better and never disappoints.
