EBF enjoyed a grand Closing Day, with entertainment being provided by the Golden Music Makers of Red Deer. Marilyn Jones, who brings her goats to EBF each summer for visitors to enjoy, took them back home.

The lucky winners of the raffle prizes were Diane Adkins (bluebird print) and Eleanor Hansen (quilt). We thank everyone who supported this fund-raising effort by buying tickets.
