Residents from the northeast and beyond are gearing up for Melfort’s annual exhibition.

The Melfort Ag Society is once again hosting the event at the Exhibition Grounds July 19, 20 and 21.

Ag Society manager Kim Eskowich told northeastNOW the featured acts on the grandstand each night are a huge hit.

“Friday night we’ve got country artist J.J. Voss at the grandstand. Saturday night we have a Bryan Adams tribute band from Vancouver playing, and we’re wrapping up on Sunday with the demolition derby again,” said Eskowich.

There is plenty to do for the young and the young-at-heart, including a petting zoo and the popular midway.
