Established in 1913, the annual Sooke Fall Fair is one of Sooke's longest running annual events.  Again this year fair organizers, volunteers and contributors worked together to provide another amazing ommunity event that not only celebrated BC's 150^th birthday but the United Nations International Year of the Potato!  All ‘eyes' were on Sooke on September 6th to continue the tradition of bringing gardeners, artisans and crafters together to showcase their skills at various fair exhibits.  The 2008 Sooke Fall Fair was a winner by all accounts!
