Canada Day falls mid-week this year so you’ll find events occurring for essentially the entire week, beginning tomorrow,  Sunday June 28–which is a very good thing as the weather will be iffy on several days.

As they say, there is  something for everyone from fireworks on July 4th in Dorset to nail-driving and pie-eating contests in West Guilford on July 1. Details about where, what, and when are below.  For further details or if you have questions  you can go online and visit www.haliburtonholidays.com or call 1-800-461-7677.
