PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

Wilma MacKinnon, President,

Peachland Fall Fair Committee

250-767-2218

The Fall Fair committee is once again gearing up to produce this very popular event. The Fair requires volunteer commitment and has been an ongoing success for 92 years. The Peachland Fall Fair was first taken over by the Women’s Institute in 1952 and became an annual event. My Aunt Berth Neil was a founding member and continued to be the flower section head well after her 80th birthday. In 1970, she convinced me to become her assistant and I have been involved ever since. It has been my purpose to carry on the tradition and dedicate myself to helping to promote the community spirit, which enables this Fair to remain as popular as it is. I do not do this by myself; we have many section heads who are as dedicated as I am and their enthusiasm is what carries us through each year. The Fair is open to all BC, residents and we particularly encourage the young people to participate; we have a very strong junior section, with many entrants moving up through the age groups. [6yrs to 15yrs] We require many volunteers to produce the Fair and are always looking for more. If you would like to become involved, please call me.

See you at the Fair

The respective Section Heads will be pleased to answer any questions prior to the Fair.

“Handicraft, also known as craft work or simply craft, is a type of

work where useful and decorative devices are made completely by

hand or using only simple tools. Usually the term is applied to

traditional means of making goods.

Usually, what distinguishes the term handicraft from the frequently used

category arts and crafts is a matter of intent: handicraft items are intended to

be used, worn, etc, having a purpose beyond simple decoration. Handicrafts

are generally considered more traditional work, created as a necessary part

of daily life, while arts and crafts implies more of a hobby pursuit and a

demonstration/perfection of a creative technique.”

The 1st Peachland Fall Fair and Flower Show was held on October 9

th 1919 and sponsored by

the Peachland Women’s Institute in conjunction with the Farmer’s Institute. The Fair’s first home was

the former Orange Hall. The current building is an Expo 86 Legacy Community Centre. The Fair’s

home moved around a lot. In the 30s, the Peachland Athletic Hall was built as a community hall….but

was replaced by the current one. On 2nd

Street, the Hall was sold in the 20s to the Great War Veteran’s,

which later became Branch #69, Royal Canadian Legion. In the early days, packed fruit was a popular

item of competition, in which local packing-houses and individual farmers (who in those days packed

and sold their fruit under their farm names) competed very vigorously against each other. The Fair was

suspended during WWII (3 years). In postwar days, the Women`s Institute continued, as sponsors and

local organizations took a more active part. Trophies were donated, and some still survive today. In

1965, the Women`s Institute felt they could no longer be solely responsible for the Fair, thus the Fall

Fair Committee was formed. Thanks to many community volunteers. The Fall Fair history survives.

Metric Measures

Metric Rulers: Metric rulers are fairly easy to read. They deal with centimeters and millimeters.

The larger lines with numbers are centimeters, and the smallest lines are millimeters. Since millimeters are 1/10th of a centimeter, if you measure 7 marks after a centimeter, it is 1.7 centimeters long.

English Rulers Take a look at the following English Rulers and compare it to the METRIC RULER above.

A ruler marked in 8ths. Every mark is 1/8th of an inch.

A ruler marked in 16ths. Every mark is 1/16th of an inch.
