MacGregors Celebration Brings Crowd to Pony Hills Park
A Friday gathering in MacGregor drew east and west visitors for the town’s annual celebration. The program featured a crowded racetrack with four entries in the Farmer's trot, a strong but rough half mile, and a seven inning baseball game where Portage la Prairie beat MacGregor in a close contest. Local umpire and crowd favorite Fea Earom provided comic relief during the baseball events.
