Update: The event took place rain free and over 500 people attended. Wow! Thank you for all your hard work. Not only did we have an awesome lunch with many instant winners, but also a huge winner. The $24,000 Meridian built hopper bottom bin winner. A draw was made Wednesday morning live on the air and David Neudorf of Edwin was the lucky winner. Congratulations David and again, thanks to all of our partners (listed below), the Manitoba Ag Museum Staff and everyone who attended the event.
It is one of our biggest events each year and it is back. The Farmer Appreciation Lunch. Once again we will take over the Manitoba Agricultural Museum on Tuesday, July 11th. All farmers are invited to join us for free lunch from Danny's Whole Hog BBQ and a chance at a whole host of prizes...including the big one. A Meridian-built Grain Max 3000 Hopper Bottom bin worth over $24000! There's no tickets to buy and nothing special you need to do other than show up with your friends and neighbours and enjoy lunch.
It's on from 11:30 to 1:30 and you'll also have a chance to visit this years great partners. See you there!
