by Warren McNeil,

The Elmira Maple Syrup Festival is just around the corner. In just 2 short weeks Elmira will host 1000s of people at the single largest one day festival of its kind. There is so much to see and do. Sugar bush tours, pancakes, taffy pulling, antique and toy shows and a huge pedestrian mall on Arthur St. Food galore. Come hungry leave stuffed!!

There are tons of pictures over on Wonderful Waterloo’s website.

The festival will be taking place on April 2, 2011. I highly recommend checking it out.

Life is Sweeter in Elmira!

By Warren McNeil,

This past Saturday we had the Elmira Maple Syrup Festival in Elmira. Each year this festival seems to attract more and more people. This year was no different. On Saturday the weather was perfect to host such a wonderful event. I live about half a kilometre away from the festivities and I could smell the aroma of pancakes from my house. My wife and I walked down to the main street which is Arthur St. They close off Arthur St for the day so that all of the vendors can setup their booths in the outdoor mall. They have every kind of vendor that you can imagine.

If you like food, then then you came to the right place. My personal favourites are the back bacon on a bun and the Lions Apple Fritters. Some of the more interesting eats were the pickle on a stick and deep fried Mars bars.

Some of the other events that people could participate in were:

You could enjoy the yummy pancakes. The line was pretty long so we passed on the pancakes this year
Mega Mutts dog show
Old MacDonalds farm
Sugar Bush tours

There are around 2000+ volunteers to support the event. Proceeds from the festival go to support local charities and non-profit organizations.

I did a little video to show the size of the crowd.
Sorry about the audio
