We walked down to the Village this morning for coffee and found ContraBand, a great little swing band, set up in the parking lot along with face painting and hot dogs and Canada Day balloons. In the afternoon at the brickyard there was the potato cannon competion (Gabriolans shooting at the Mudgekins across the Narrows) which is lots of fun to watch, plus there was a community pot luck dinner at Twin Beaches. And later in the evening Jazz and a BBQ at Raspberries Cafe. Gabriola loves to celebrate and there is always lots to do!
