The prairie agriculture community gathered once again in Austin for the annual Manitoba Threshermen’s Reunion and Stampede late in July, putting on a show for four days, July 24-27.
From educational tours and events to a dangerous rodeo, the event gave people a reason to come down from all over the prairies. The reunion is the largest annual fundraiser for the Manitoba Agricultural Museum and contributes greatly to its programs, Elliot Sims, executive director of the museum, said.
Family-friendly activities included a parade and demonstrations on agricultural-related skills.
