*sigh* The last weekend before school starts. Where did the time go? I took yesterday off to have a family fun day in Toronto before our little one starts Grade 1 (and before the crazy mad long-weekend traffic hits) so forgive me for being a bit behind on the blogging.
The good news for anyone planning on staying close to home is that there's NOT a lot of organized activities going on this weekend. I don't know about you, but for the 'last weekend of summer', I'm just as happy not to be sharing the Barrie waterfront with vendors and midways and shoulder-to-shoulder crowds. I'm hoping that perhaps this will be a good weekend to spend down at the local beach with the family. We shall see. :)
If you are looking for a planned event, the 1st Annual (can you really call something annual if it's a first?) Railway Blues & Bluegrass Festival takes place this Saturday at the Cookstown KOA campground (on the East side of the Hwy 89 Cookstown Exit off Highway 400), beginning at noon and going until sometime after dark. Click here to find out more about the festival and about camping on site.
There will also be an end-of-summer fireworks display Sunday night at dusk at Wasaga Beach.
And of course there are many summer entertainment venues to take advantage of while the weather is good, like Santa's Village in Bracebridge, Castle Village in Midland, and Rounds Ranch in Elmvale.
Happy Labour Day! - Caleigh
