Today kicks off the 166th annual Brigden Fair. 
A thanksgiving weekend tradition, the fair opens today with the “Ag in the Classroom Program”.
Organizer Julie Maw says it’s a great way to get kids involved.
“It’s hands-on learning, the kids get to do the stuff, make things move, learn about the different crops and farm life,” Maw says. “All of that fun stuff, with interactive displays put on by volunteers around the community.”
There’s also the midway, a parade on Saturday, and entertainment by Leahy.
