Windy conditions at Leader’s Fall Festival
By Joan Janzen
Wind and cool weather didn’t hamper the Fall Festival at Leader on Saturday afternoon, October 5th. Vendors were on hand at the Sandhills Marketplace, a food truck was on site, there were craft projects for the kids, and free apple cider while it lasted.
Entries poured in for the pie baking contest. Visitors could purchase a delicious piece of pie and have the proceeds go to the Leader Food Bank. First, second and third prize winners received Leader Dollars. A lucky panel of judges had the privilege of tasting and evaluating the pies based on creativity and appearance.
Ann Dietrich was playing her accordion while classic vehicles lined up for the Show ‘n Shine. The people’s choice winner took away $200 in prize money. Down the street at the Friendship Centre, chilli dogs, chilli and bratwurst were available.
