What a day! The Burk’s Falls & District Historical Society’s Heritage Festival really delivered with a fantastic lineup of vendors, performers, and fun activities for the kids.
The big event of the day was the Firefighters Challenge featuring all five Almaguin fire departments. The Kearney fire department unseated McMurrich/Monteith as the champions and received a new trophy custom designed by Huntsville’s Asylum Hotrods.
A new event this year was the car show which featured over 80 classic cars, hot rods, rat rods, and motorcycles. Organizer Jim Percy has worked tirelessly to bring in participants from right across the region. Asylum Hotrods and 705BLACKFLY.COM were the proud sponsors of the car show and were honoured to present Jim with a special gift for his efforts.
We’d like to congratulate The Burk’s Falls & District Historical Society, Armour township deputy clerk Charlene Watt, and the team of volunteers who made this amazing event happen. Great work and let’s do it again next year!
