The Chilliwack Fair - August 9-11

The Chilliwack Fair - August 9-11

IMG_0186.JPG

In 1873, the non-profit Chilliwack and District Agricultural Society incorporated and began producing the Chilliwack Exhibition and Fair. The Fair has run continuously since then and is the second-oldest fair in British Columbia.

The culture and heritage of Chilliwack is what makes our community strong and unique. The Fair is an opportunity to celebrate all that the community has to offer and despite being the foundation on which it was built, the Fair is about much more than agriculture.  We are proud to feature many local artists, organizations and businesses throughout the Fair.  Opportunities to participate in the Fair are countless, whether as a 4-H member showing a favourite animal, an entrant in the annual Fruit Pie Baking Contest, an event sponsor, or a volunteer in any of a number of different capacities during fair time.

Visit the Chilliwack Fair this August 9-11 for some guaranteed family fun. We have so many amazing entries this year and attractions and entertainment for everyone in the family. Nicole has some more details in this video. Can’t wait to see you all at the fair!

Funk’s episode of “Masters of Illusion” will be airing on June 21 on The CW network. The series showcases celebrity magicians from around the world in a theatre-style setting and is hosted by Dean Cain.

CSCL Chilly Wackers Versus Boston Bruins Alumni Game

On February 23rd 2019, Chilliwack Society for Community Living (CSCL) put on a great sporting affair. The CSCL Chilly Wackers took on the Boston Bruins Alumni team; a team that features Bruins greats like Ray Bourque, Al Iafrate, Joe Mullen and more, all in support of CSCL’s fundraiser.

We at Around Chilliwack had a chance to tag along with the Chilly Wackers to get a look at the game from behind the scenes. Seeing so many people collaborating for such an important community organization was enough to lift anyones spirts. The hockey game was a great excuse to bring so many of Chilliwack’s amazing people together, and a lot of fun to witness the passion of our local hockey spirit.

The Chilliwack Society for Community Living (CSCL), in partnership with community, builds capacity for the inclusion of people with varying abilities. We promote diversity and provide innovative, individualized services that enhance quality of life.

Congratulations to CSCL on a great event and fundraiser! Thanks for having us along.
