BIBLE HILL: The crowds came out from across Nova Scotia and the Maritimes to take in the four-day long Nova Scotia Stampede.

The Stampede, held for a second year in the Truro area, had events from Thursday through to Sunday afternoon that brought people to the area and contributed to the local area economy.

From concerts, including the kickoff one that featured Waverley’s own Maggie Andrew, to the rodeo and bull riding, vendor village, East Coast Inflate-a-Palooza bouncy castles, and more, there was a lot of activity that kept people busy on the grounds of the Stampede and within the Truro/Bible Hill region.

Other artists that performed included Matt Andersen; Jodi Guthro; Brett Kissel; Jason Benoit; and the James Barker Band to name a few of the musicians that hit the stage.

The Laker News stopped in on Saturday afternoons matinee show Sept. 20 and spoke with some in the crowd about why they came and their highlight of the N.S. Stampede.

We also took in the action taking place in the Millbrook First Nation Rodeo Arena that was fast pace and exhilarating.

Pat may have even tried to ride not one, but two bulls–one being the Coldstream Clear can and the other Lucifer the mechanical bull as part of the East Coast Inflate-a-Palooza bouncy castle fun.

Check it out in the video.
