Wet weather put a damper on activities at the Manitoba Summer Fair yesterday, but it didn’t stop the rodeo demonstrations — both indoors and out.

Performers and spectators braved the rain during the Wild West Show, which featured trick roping and riding.

The small crowd that gathered to watch Tom Bishop show off his roping skills steadily grew as the Red Rodeo Cowboy Girls took to the ring.
