There's Something For Everyone

For good old fashioned fun where there is something for everyone, plan to attend Ailsa Craig Gala Days, a three-day family oriented festival always held on the third weekend in July at the Ailsa Craig Community Park. The fun starts Friday evening and ends on Sunday evening with free admission to the park all weekend long. There are dozens of free events, and the rest have a nominal entry fee.

Included in the many events are the Friday night Family Dance, Main Street Parade, Baby Show, Show n Shine, Spelling Bee, Pet Show, Bicycle Rodeo, Horseshoe competition, Outside Video Dance, 5km Run, Breakfast in the Park, Church, 4 on 4 Road Hockey, Clowns, Face Painters, Children's Entertainers, Midway, Beef BBQ, Easy Listening Live Band Music, and many events for the young and the young at heart. The highlight of the weekend is our famous Turtle Races! Held on Saturday afternoon - everyone is encouraged to catch and register a turtle for this entertaining activity.
