Murray Wood: Of Easter bunny bells and Juicy Fruit gum
For Murray Wood, Easter brings to mind grandma's practical advice about repurposing, and some of life's little lessons.
The first day of the 2022 Saskatoon Ex was a record-setting one.
According to Prairieland Park, 33,839 people went through the gates on opening day Tuesday to take in the beautiful weather, a $10 admission special, and a performance by Canadian rock group Billy Talent.
In 2019 — the last year the Ex was not cancelled or changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic — opening day saw 29,321 people pass through the gate.
During last year’s Ex, a grand total of 230,528 people attended the eight-day fair.
The 2022 exhibition runs until Sunday.
