Lighthouse Street Festival a Hit!
The Township of Terrace Bay held its inaugural lighthouse street festival on Friday August 26th and it seemed like the entire town came out to celebrate. The festival was organized by the Municipality and its volunteer partners as a way to enjoy the new downtown area. Some of the festival activities included: giant inflatable castles, games for kids and all ages, a show and shine, beer gardens and a street dance with DJ Mario from Santi Sounds. One of the most popular festivities was the face painting from Dottie the Clown, which had children lining up for hours. The event had excellent support from the businesses in the Township who featured special sidewalk and in-store sales and the restaurants brought their menu options outdoors under the plaza canopy. Different organizations from within the community also attended and fundraised or sold products underneath the plaza canopy. Mayor Michael King said “We are incredibly proud of the efforts of our volunteers and Municipal staff at organizing the event. Our businesses have done a great job showing off what they have to offer and overall I think everyone who attended was quite pleased and hopeful we do this again”. Attendance at the event was estimated at just over 1,000 people with counts being done throughout the day.
