“We were just down one per cent from last year,” she said. “We could see the numbers were climbing throughout the week so we felt really confident that we could make up what we were behind earlier in the week.”
The concessions and rides will continue their cross-country tour, heading to the CNE in Toronto and the PNE in Vancouver.
As for Prairieland Park, cleanup is underway as they prepare to host Folkfest pavilions this week.
