01/08: Last Day of Homecoming

Posted by: The Agnew Family
It's been a really fun weekend. I can understand why all the small towns have homecoming.
There wasn't a lot going on today but there was the River Race --- if it floats you can enter it. There weren't a lot of entries but they were interesting.
Not sure how many rubber rings were tied together to make the large raft. The smaller ones seem to be having technical difficulties.
A floating sofa, now that's interesting. They did well till they hit a shallow and were dumped off the sofa.
To cap off the weekend was an amazing fireworks display. Anne, Victor, Ellen, Rob, Ed and I got to the park at least an hour and half before the fireworks but that was OK as there was still entertainment and refreshments at the beer tent. The last band was great. When they finished their set the fireworks began.
The finally was absolutely amazing. I would have liked to load a video but either this blogger doesn't allow it or I don't know how to do it so I just grabbed a clip from the video.
Happy Homecoming Walkerton. Looking forward to Walkerton's 150 birthday celebration in 5 years.
