The purpose of the festival

These are the reasons for our having a festival:

• The festival is our largest fundraising event of the year.  The revenue it generates truly helps us "make ends meet" financially
• It is a great way for our parishioners and residents of the local community to come together and have a great time
• It provides an opportunity for community organizations to educate the public about the work that they do

What you will find at the festival

Live Entertainment

• A number of local bands and dance groups
• A classic car show by the Bay Bombs Car Club on Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m
