1992 Uffda Day includes a pet show

The 8th annual Uffda Day in 1992 included the car show, arts and craft sales, horse farming demonstration, antique machinery display, the quilt display, horse drawn rides. Fry bread was also offered for sale for the first time at Uffda Day. Approximately 1800 lefse were made before Uffda Day and packed in threes to sell for $1.75. Fresh off the grill lefse was served for seventy-five cents for whole piece and four-bits for half a piece (that’s 50 cents). About 970 meals of escalloped potatoes and ham was served at the Hall where guests were entertained by The Happy Norwegians. The estimates of the crowd during the day’s activities far exceeded 1,000.

According to reports, the pet show went pretty well for the first attempt. There were 27 pets entered including a llama, miniature horse, sheep, parakeets, goldfish, dogs, cats and one chicken. After the pet show there was a kiddies parade that lasted about five minutes.
