The 25th annual Dunnville Fair was held the weekend of August 10 and 11, 2019 in Lion’s Park. There were vendors, rides, games, musical entertainment, and food aplenty for all who attended. The weather was perfect both days which allowed for a good turnout each day. Pictured (l-r) is Chloe (8) of Dunnville, who was happy to have won a prize at the fish pond, with dad, Nelson.
