<p style="text-align: center;">The first <em><span style="color: #993300;">A<strong>gricultural Society </strong></span></em><strong>e</strong>xisted in Bathurst District in the early 1830&#8242;s. An <em><span style="color: #993300;">A<strong>gricultural Society</strong></span><strong> </strong></em><strong>w</strong>as formed in McNab township in 1854, which was the first in Renfrew County.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">The <em><span style="color: #993300;">A<strong>gricultural Society</strong></span><strong> </strong></em><strong>w</strong>as first called the <em>Balmer Island Fair</em>, and later the <em>Stewartville Fair</em>. On September 25th, 1867 the McNab Agricultural Society held an annual exhibition in <strong><span style="color: #993300;">Arnprior</span></strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">Between 1896 and 1910 the <em>McNab Agricultural Society</em> did not receive any goverment grants and may have been dormant. In 1910 the fair was moved to Stewarton and the <em>McNab Agricultural Society</em> was re-organized as the <strong><span style="color: #800000;">Arnprior Agricultural So</span><span style="color: #800000;">ciety</span></strong> with 120 members. After World War II, Stewarton was annexed by <strong>Arnprior</strong>, and the annual event continues today as the <span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Arnprior Fair</strong></span>.</p>
