(Denny Scott photo) Ambassador contest to be held While there is an Ambassador contest scheduled for next year’s Elementary School Fair in Belgrave, fair chair Steve Hallahan said that the group isn’t sure what form it will take. “We want it to happen for sure,” he said. “We’re just not sure what it’s going to be.” Hallahan said that the group didn’t have time at their meetings to lay out who will be eligible and what the criteria will be for choosing the ambassador, but said that they will look at that in the new year. “We’re going to be hopefully having an organizational meeting in March and figure it out then,” he said. “We haven’t got down to saying what we're going to do yet for sure.” The fair, which will be entering its 93rd year in 2013, welcomes students from the newly-formed Maitland River Elementary School as well as students from other neighbouring schools, however no official transportation was provided to students outside of Maitland River for the 2012 fair.
