At the Provincial Exhibition of Manitoba’s Annual General Meeting, held in person for the first time in three years at the Dome Building on Tuesday, the non-profit organization announced a $41,892 surplus in 2022.
In a media release Trista White, Senior Manager of BDO said, “Considering that 2022 was the first year of all three (of the Exhibition’s) major events taking place since 2019, with many unknowns, the surplus is encouraging that operations are in a good position going forward.”
Provincial Exhibition President, Kathy Cleaver, said “this year’s numbers reflect a year of hard work by the management,
staff, executive and board. This past year was certainly a challenge, but overall, we worked extremely hard in order to have a successful year and get the Exhibition back on track.”
“In addition to announcing its 2022 financials, the Provincial Exhibition named its annual winner of the Jim Figol
Memorial Award and saw sixteen members elected to the Board, including seven new ones.
New members include Simon Atkinson, Calvin Jacobson, Jane Haglund – Scott, Ryan Holden, Tracey Wilcox, Gladden
Smith, and Ron Kristjansson while several others were re-elected including Wayne Buhr, Dallas Johnston, Mitch
Kaminsky, David Leech, Vern Nystedt, Gary Schott, Chad Stiles, Shirley Neudorf, and Dayle Hughson.
In addition to her successful re-election, Hughson was named recipient of last year’s Figol Volunteer award, which is
presented annually to a volunteer that embodies the same commitment, spirit and dedication to all of the fairs and
community as the Past Director and President. This past year, Dayle served as Co-Chair of the Manitoba Summer Fair
with Tim Rowan and Connie Bok.
On February 7th, 2023, the Director’s AGM will be held to elect the next President, Vice President, and Executive Directors Board, and preparations continue for next month’s President’s Dinner, to be held on February 16th at the Victoria Inn
and the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair in March.”
