Edmonton ,Alberta

The Calgary Stampede celebrated their 100th anniversary last summer and they are known for their cowboy theme and world class rodeo.Edmonton had a theme called Klondike Days,celebrating Edmonton as the gateway to the gold rush in the late 1800's.We used to dress up in Klondike attire....natty brocaded vests,bowler hats....anything of that era.Then for some inane reason,the organizers decided to go away from the Klondike theme and it became just a 10 day fair with amusement rides....and the attendance began to wane.They have now adopted the name K Days and leave it to the public to decide what the K is to stand for.Calgary,our rival,can teach us a thing or two about how to put on a 10 day fair!
