Just a quick note to say how pleased I was to see the Salmon Arm Fairgrounds being used this past weekend for a rather large equestrian event involving many participants from out of town. Many we talked with told us how impressed they were with the facilities.. we heard a lot of “We had no idea Salmon Arm had such a nice, all-encompassing fairgrounds.” This is very valuable real estate to be sitting empty most of the year and I encourage the fair board to maximize usage of this land as much as is reasonably possible. From a bystander’s perspective, this event seemed to be a perfect fit and it certainly sounded like they’d like to come back.
