Heritage Days on the way

The Ancaster Heritage Days committee is working hard to make this year's event the best yet. Visit their newly-designed website at www.ancasterheritagedays.com for all the details.

Events begin with the 26th annual Old Mill Race on Tuesday, June 9, followed by the Ancaster Community Services' Community Links Golf Tournament, Tastes of Ancaster, the Ancaster Senior Achievement Centre's Strawberry Social and of course the weekend festivities including the parade, Kidsworld, sidewalk sales, fireworks and much more.

The popular kids' soap box derby makes its second appearance this year.

The elementary school essay contest is now underway.
This year’s contest invites Ancaster students to write a short essay about Heritage Days.(maximum 150 words).
If you are in Grade 1 or 2 you are asked to submit a drawing.

Students should submit entries to their teachers by Friday May 1st.

Winning entries will be reprinted in an Ancaster News supplement and winners will ride in the Heritage Days parade on June 13. There are also three cash prizes of $100, $75 and $50.
