The Township of Douro-Dummer will host their annual Canada Day celebration, after a two year hiatus due to COVID-19, on July 1 at 2:30 p.m.
“After a two-year hiatus we are excited to bring the community back together again to celebrate as a community,” said Julie Chatten, one of the organizers of this year’s event. “We are eager to reconnect with our friends and neighbours.”
The theme for this years celebration is ‘Re-United’.
“Re-United, means so much,” said Councillor Heather Watson, also on the organizing committee. “With so many issues dividing us as a nation and as a community in recent years, Canada Day is a reminder of what it means to be Canadian.”
The parade route begins on the Douro Fourth Line Road at County Road 4 and will head south ending in the Hamlet of Douro at County Road 8. Entries of walkers and floats are asked to assemble at 2:00 p.m. at County Road 4 and Douro Fourth Line Road.
Parade entries are welcome and can take any form but are requested to register.
