Dear Editor:
On behalf of the Erin Agricultural Society, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the Wellington Advertiser for your generous community sponsorship and unwavering support of the Erin Agricultural Society’s 175th anniversary celebrations throughout 2025.
Your contribution played a vital role in the success of our milestone year, culminating in the memorable 175th Erin Fall Fair.
Your commitment to promoting local events and sharing the stories of our community is invaluable. The coverage and encouragement you provided helped us reach more residents and visitors, celebrating Erin’s rich agricultural heritage together.
We would also like to draw special attention to the outstanding work provided by Katie Clarke of the Wellington County Museum and Archives. The archives’ creation of a wonderful slide presentation, showcased all weekend in the Erin Fair 175 Heritage Tent, brought our history to life and allowed fair visitors to connect with our past in a meaningful way.
It truly takes many partners to host a fall fair – and the Erin Fair is fortunate to have so many dedicated supporters in Erin, Hillsburgh and neighbouring communities throughout Wellington County and beyond.
Your partnership, along with those of others, helps ensure that our traditions continue to thrive and our community remains vibrant for generations to come.
Eileen Brown,
The Erin Agricultural Society
