It is through individual efforts, whether it was donating labour and trade work, coaching, doing endless paperwork, or simply lending a hand at an event that has resulted in success through the years,” said Carri. This year, the Ag Society will mark an important milestone in its history, as it celebrates its 50th anniversary. It will be a great opportunity to reunite with others who have helped shape the Ag society and the community, added Carri. Several events have been planned for July 9 and 10. There will be action on the ball diamonds with the Slo-Pitch Tournament as well as a Farmers Market. As well, the Lamont County Emergency Services Andrew Fire District will be holding a pancake breakfast during the event.
