Well, the 6pm Ferry on Monday did quite the dance of farewell to summer, with its water cannons going it was quite the sight spinning around in front of the Thatch, the La Fille looked as though it could have been washing the cars with their water canon as the ferry spun around, I say (although we didn’t get out on our boat this year) the wave off was a great success with DJ Pat getting us up to dance and the Dragon Boat Ladies and a Gentleman brightening the view in their fabulously colorful outfits. As the Wave off means the Summer Season is officially over, that means its time for the Fall Fair – the theme this year is The Essential Wheelbarrow! Get your busy with decorating and creating your Wheelbarrow garden, making and Baking and Preserves and of course harvest your best Flowers, Fruits and Veggies. Programs / Competition Classes Brochures are available on the Coop Porch and under the Tourist Map on the Printshop Building as well as at till 3 in Coop, pre-registration will be on the Coop Porch Saturday.

Also, the winner of this years Quilt will be announced at 1:45pm, so make sure you get your tickets ASAP. As for the rest of the week, Saturday is a busy day starting with the Farmers Market, in the evening you have your choice of watching Back to the Future 1 & 2 at the Hall (doors at 4pm) or listening to Angel Forrest debuting her latest album ‘It’s a Beautiful Life’ with special guests Wailing Station at Fossil Beach Farm and enjoy their last BBQ of the season (BBQ starts at 1pm & the music starts at 5pm).
