Valleyview and Districts Agricultural Society will be hosting the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Musical Ride next week.

It will take place on Tuesday August 20 at the Valleyview & Districts Agricultural Society Rodeo Grounds.

A Canadian Tradition since 1876, JoAnn Clarke with the Musical Ride planning committee says its a rare show to experience.

“It’s a very good show to see. 32 red coated Mounties on black horses, and they present a show of intricate figures and cavalry drills choreographed to music.”

The event will also have other activities, says Clarke.
