The final entertainment was "Against the Grain" but,
the bulk of the band was ill and so Jared Harp bravely represented "Against the Grain".
All the entertainment was thoroughly enjoyed by all who were privileged enough to be there.

Many thanks are extended to the dedicated Farmers Day Committee: Ronnie Atchison, Mary Ann Mason, Tim & Annette Bruffett, Cindy Sullivan, Elaina Prewett, Tiffanie Holloway and Susie Dodds. Without their planning, persistence and hard work to put it all together there would be no Norwood Farmers Day. If you see them, please take the time to let them know how much you appreciate their efforts and ask how you can help make it better next year. Thanks are also sent to the many unnamed volunteers who helped on the event.
Thanks are also extended to the City of Norwood for their assistance in this annual event.
