Cottam Fall Fesitval

Sights, sounds and smells of fall were in the air around Cottam Sunday with the 59th annual Fall Fair and Horse Festival. Streets were lined with families to see the many parade floats, marching bands, tractors, horses, old cars and more as the parade made its way to Ridgeview Park.

The festival, organized by Cottam Rotary contained many favourite events from a pancake breakfast to horse shoe toss, pony rides and a Chili Cook off.

Tamara Stomp took home first place bragging rights in the Chili event.

“We are out here promoting horsemanship,” said Sarah Parks of the Sarah Parks Horsemanship Association, who also provided free pony rides all afternoon.
