Delta set for syrup festival this weekend

A bumper harvest of maple syrup is the featured attraction at the annual Delta Maple Syrup Festival Saturday and Sunday.

"From what I heard people saying, it's been a really good year for syrup," Rob Rollins, first vice-president of the sponsoring Delta Agriculture Society told The Recorder and Times on Monday.

"There will be vendors throughout the village itself selling maple products and also on the fairgrounds."

Rollins said good weather in recent years has boosted attendance to a consistent level of 1,500 to 2,000 visitors who show up for a taste of the liquid gold and stick around for other entertainment and activities provided during the two-day affair.

Day Three

We've made it back to Toronto and are getting cleaned up and giving Mike last minute tips on the condo care, and will be heading to the airport at around 2:30. I called Uncle Mike in Brittany on the way home from Brockville to let him know that we will be arriving in Paris tomorrow morning and will be in touch during the week to make arrangements with him for our visit.

Last night was Mom's 60th birthday, Happy Birthday Mommy!!!!
