It is with great sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Brenda Guiotto. Our deepest condolences to Guiotto Family at this time.
Brenda was a familiar face at the Lindsay Exhibition for many years as an active member of the LAS community, a volunteer, a committee member, and a sponsor. Brenda served as the Chairperson of the Goat Show Committee for many years, bringing vision and expertise to the show.
Brenda will be missed by everyone here at the Lindsay Agricultural Society. A tree will be planted in her memory here at the LAS Grounds.

We have exciting news! The LAS is excited to unveil our latest facility upgrade: a brand new fence leading up to our grandstand track. We would like to express our sincerest gratitude to System Equine for donating the fence materials and to our dedicated Heavy Horse Committee for installing the fence on a precious Sunday in June.
We're looking forward to watching exhibitors travel past the fence on their way up the ramp this fall on their way to show on the grandstands, knowing that it's easier to see and safer than what was there previously.

It is with great sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Jack Batty. Our deepest condolences to Past President Lois Batty and the extended Batty Family.
Jack and Jean Batty, along with their children and extended family have been exhibitors, supporters, volunteers, donors, and overall key members of the Lindsay Agricultural Society community for more than 70 years. The LAS would not be what it is today without the continued support of this family.
Jack will be missed by everyone here at the Lindsay Agricultural Society and the local agricultural community. A tree will be planted in his memory here at the LEX Grounds.
