Carlyle’s Homespun, “The Biggest Little Craft Show in Saskatchewan,” is celebrating 30 years this September and the board invites you to join in on the fun.
Over 70 vendors will be in attendance on Saturday, Sept. 17, and Sunday, Sept. 18, which will encompass a great selection of items from food stuffs to wooden board games and everything in between. There will be a variety of fantastic vendors chosen by the homespun committee including new vendors and returning favourites.
On Sept. 17 the day will begin at 10 a.m. and will run until 8 p.m., which is something the committee is really excited about.
“We’re excited to offer late shopping on the Saturday for those who work that day or have something else on during the day,” Nicole Currie, Chair of the Homespun Board, explained. “We also have two draws that night, one at 6 p.m. and the other at 7 p.m., each for $100 vendor bucks.”
Saturday also boasts a pancake breakfast hosted at the Legion, just northwest of the rink from 8 a.m. until 10 a.m. The delicious Supper in the Field, which will be held in the arena again this year, will be held from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
Sunday’s hours will run from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.
Both days the event is hosted at the Carlyle Sports Arena and admission is $5 and free for kids 12-years and under.
In addition to the vendors found at the rink, the 14th annual Quilt Show will be held at Memorial Hall both days. Admission to the quilt show is $4 and it will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. as well as from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. on the Sunday.
“We’re excited that we have some high school kids that will have made quilts and will have them on display at the quilt show,” Currie added.
Action at the local motocross track will also be underway on Saturday, Sept. 17, between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. as the 12th annual Bowan Rekken Memorial Moto-X Track Race – part of the 鶹Ƶeast Corner Racing Circuit.
