Canada Day was filled with festivities which kicked off with live music and hot dogs at The Folklife Village. Locals and visitors alike started to assemble and by noon the band was rocking, playing tunes we all remember from the 60’s and 70’s. From there the party moved to brickyard beach where potato cannons were employed in an effort to bombard Mudge Island. Though not far away the Mudgkins were safe as the lobbed potatoes ended up in the sea. After dinner islanders and visitors were treated to the Gypsy Music of Orkestar Slivovica at the All Ages Dance party at the Haven. For those of us who like a home style party it was a perfect evening for a back yard BBQ with friends and family.
