Rain and wind hit southern Alberta this past weekend, but it didn't stop the annual Carseland Aggie Days from going on.

Aggie Days has been in Caresland for 25 years, and this year was no different.

This weekend's festivities included beer gardens, a vendor market, RibFest dinner, a tractor pull, and much more.

Hundreds of residents showed up at the market on Saturday, and one of those residents was MLA for Chestermere-Strathmore Chantelle de Jonge.

"It's great to come out here. Aggie Days has been running for about 25 years. I won't tell you how old I am, but that's the whole time I've been alive. So, it's a great event, I love coming to Aggie Days," de Jonge expressed.

Residents were also offered lunch made by the Caresland Fire Department before fireworks closed off Friday night.

Events on Saturday had to be moved indoors due to the rain and wind that hit the area.
