It’s been three years since the town of Navan last got to host it’s annual fair. Before the COVID pandemic, the Navan Fair had the distinction of kicking off the town fair season in Eastern Ontario. This year, they will be joined by the Merrickville Fair which will take place from Aug. 5-7. The 75th edition of the Navan Fair will get started on Thursday, Aug. 4. Highlights include the Demolition Derby on Thursday and Friday night; the tractor, truck and heavy horse pulls on Saturday and Sunday; the Ultimutts Stunt Dog and Cat Show with three performances a day on Friday and Saturday only; the Rock the Arts
Puppet Show, which will also be doing three performances a day on Friday and Saturday; and the 78th Fraser Highlanders will be performing musket demonstrations throughout the five-day event. The highlight on Saturday will once again be the annual Navan Fair Parade which starts in front of St. Mary’s Hall on Smith Road at 10:45 a.m. and winds its way down Colonial Road to the fair grounds. A tradition that has grown over the year’s is the pre-parade breakfast which is served inside the church hall from 8 to 11 a.m. Inside the fair grounds, Robertson Amusements will once again be operating all of the CONTINUED ON PAGE 2

COMMUNITY BRIEFS Dapo Day to go virtual for second straight year
ORLÉANS – The Dapo Agoro fun day has been forced to go virtual again this but not for the reason you think. Last year, the annual event honouring former Blackburn Hamlet resident Dapo Agoro had to go virtual because of the COVID-19 pandemic. This year they are going virtual due to a conflict with another organization which had already booked the park around the Blackburn Community Hall. So for the second straight year the BBQ, music and three-on-three soccer tournament will be replaced by a symposium around the theme of “Resilience” to be held on Saturday, Aug. 20. You can register for the event by going to dapoagorofoundation.org and following the links. There is no charge to attend the event, however, freewill donations will be accepted with the proceeds going to support the Dapo Agoro Foundation for Peace. Dapo was stabbed to death on June 7, 2002, while trying to break up a fight at a downtown club. He was 18 years old at the time and two weeks shy of his high school prom.
Francophone community loses one of its pillars
ORLÉANS – Long-time Orléans resident Gerry Poulin has passed away at the age of 90. Mr. Poulin moved to Orléans in 1958 with his wife Pauline into a house on Notre Dame Street which he built himself. Among his many accomplishments, Gerry was a member of the Orléans Chamber of Commerce in the 1960s when municipal water was finally brought to the village. He was also instrumental as the secretary treasurer of the Orléans School Board in finding the funding to build Léo-D.-Coté intermediate school on Carrière Street, which is now École St-Joseph d’Orléans. But his greatest accomplishment was in helping to create the Mouvement d’implication francophone d’Orléans, better known as MIFO in the 1970s and the Rendez vous des aînes francophone d’Ottawa seniors club in 2001. Gerry was also a popular columnist with the L’Express French language paper and later on the L’Orléanais before health issues forced him to curtail his activities. Gerry passed away on July 1. He is survived by his wife Pauline, née Lortie, and his eight children: Richard (Judy), François (Marie), Andrée (Neale), Maurice (Christine), Martine (Roy), Jean, Dominique (Olivier), and Danielle (Jim).
*Pauline Poulin and the entire Poulin family would like to sincerely thank the community of Orléans for its support during the difficult times following Gérald’s (Gerry 1931-2022) passing.

Family-friendly Navan Fair takes place Aug. 4 - Aug. 7 Continued from page 1 midway rides and games of chance. Opening day has been designated as Toonie Thursday when you can go on any ride for just a toonie. Friday is Bracelet Day when you can purchase a bracelet for $40 which entitles you to unlimited rides for the day. Up until 9 p.m. on August 3rd, you can purchase a sheet of 35 coupons for $40. During the fair, your $40 will only get you 26 coupons. Of course, no Navan Fair would be complete without live entertainment performed under the domes from 9 p.m. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday night and 1 p.m. on Sunday afternoon. This year’s headliners include The County Lads on Thursday night; Jade Eagleson on Friday night; Tyler Joe Miller on Saturday night and Wayne Rostad on Sunday afternoon. Navan’s own Chris Labelle will also be performing as the opening act for Tyler Joe Miller on Saturday night. Away from the midway, live entertainment and tractor pull, the Navan Fair also boasts a significant agricultural component. In fact, when the Fair first started 75 years ago, it was largely an agricultural exposition. Farmers would come from miles around, including from outside the county, to show off their prized cows, horses and sheep while the wives would square off in the baking and homecraft competitions. When it comes to the agricultural component, not much has changed. There are heavy horse and western horse competitions; a Jersey dairy cattle show and an Ayrshire and Holstein show; and a Purebred Beef cattle show. The Fair is also hosting the only international alpaca show in Eastern Canada
The Ultimutts Stunt Dog and Cat Show will be performing three times a day on Friday and Saturday only. PHOTO SUPPLIES In the Cumberland Agricultural Society building, you will find this year’s red ribbon winners in the baking competition, the floricultural show and the various homecraft contests. Last but by no means least, the Agricultural Education Barn will feature demonstrations by Little Ray’s Reptiles and displays by Tilecroft Farms, Grain Farmers of Ontario, the Museum of Agriculture as well as an antique machinery and tractor display. So, as you can see, there is plenty to see and do at this year’s Navan Fair. For the full lineup and schedule visit navanfair.com.
CORRECTION In the July 7 edition of the Orléans Star, it was incorrectly reported that Sir Wilfrid Laurier Secondary School top scholar Emma Ellsworth graduated with an average of 94.7 per cent. In fact, her average was 97.83 aper cent. The initial figure was incorrectly reported to us by the student who was far too modest about her achievement. We apologize to Emma, her parents and her family for not getting it right the first time.

Gems of Innes Awards honour community’s best By Fred Sherwin The Orléans Star For the past three weeks, Innes Ward city councillor Laura Dudas has been handing out awards to some of the best businesses and organizations in the area as voted on by their fellow residents. This is the second round of the Gems of Innes Awards which Dudas launched last year to recognize some of the ward’s most cherished assets. “The Gems Awards are an opportunity to recognize and show our appreciation for the outstanding businesses and community organizations that are unique to Ottawa’s east end, and make our community a more vibrant place to live, work and play,” Dudas writes on her website. “The (awards) help celebrate and highlight the businesses and community organizations that serve Innes Ward and the east end and truly make our community sparkle!” This year’s recipients include Gabriel Pizza; the Blackburn Pharmacy; Golden Fries; the Ottawa School of Theatre; Just Food; Jamaican Homestyle Cuisine; the Art of Bean; the Rising Stars Basketball Academy; Red Dragon Cards, Comics and Games, Echo Audiology and Sherwin Pub-
lishing which publishes The Orléans Star and the L’Orléanais. All of the business and organizations had to first be nominated by an individual outside the organization. Each submission was then vetted and the winners chosen. Gabriel Pizza, which received the award for Best Restaurant, is one of the oldest businesses in Orléans. Launched 45 years ago by Hanna family patriarch Mike Hanna, Gabriel’s has become an institution not only in Orléans, but the entire region with locations in both Ottawa and Gatineau. Although they haven’t been around nearly as long, the Golden Fries food truck, located in Convent Glen, is well on its way to becoming another local institution after being named Ottawa’s Favourite Food Truck three years in a row. The Blackburn Pharmacy, which received the award for Best Professional Service Business, has been serving residents in Blackburn Hamlet for more than 25 years. Their friendly and knowledgeable staff are what keeps their clients coming back year after year. To find out more about this year’s Gems of Innes recipients go to www.lauradudas.ca/ gems2002.

Air travel Between flights being canceled at the last minute, forcing people to delay their travel plans or abandon them all together, and the tens of thousands of stranded bags at nearly every airport on the globe, air travel has become a living nightmare for many people. In my own humble opinion, it is in the worst shape it’s been in since the Hindenburg disaster. I recently had my own issues with air travel. In fact, they are still ongoing. Somewhere between Amsterdam and Frankfurt or Frankfurt and Madrid, my brand new backpack disappeared along with more than $1,000 in clothing, some of which I had just purchased for my trip to Europe. Unfortunately, I didn’t purchase an Apple Air Tag before I left. The Air Tag enables you to track your bag anywhere in the world in case it goes missing. I ran into one gentlemen who used it to find out his bag was indeed not on its way to Madrid, but to Washington, D.C. instead. (Funny aside here, but the airline industry doesn’t actually use the word “lost” as in lost luggage. Instead, they use the word “delayed”. Exactly how long it takes for a “delayed” bag to become “lost” is anybody’s guess.) My own bag has been delayed for three weeks now, so I’m fast approaching the statute of limitation on the word “delayed”, if I haven’t passed it already. But I’m not the only one. According to a recent story on bbc.com, there are more than 20,000 pieces of lost luggage at the Frankfurt airport alone, of which, I’m absolutely certain, is my brand new Woods Chilkoot backpack. My bag was lost...sorry, I mean delayed, while flying with Lufthansa. But I can’t really blame Lufthansa, because Lufthansa doesn’t actually handle the bag. Nor do most other airlines in the world, including Air Canada. Most baggage is handled by handlers who are employed by the airport. Like most other airports around the world, the airports in Europe are suffering from a severe post-pandemic labour shortage, which is another story for another day. But on top of the labour shortage is an ongoing labour battle between airport workers in Europe and the folks in charge, leading to rotating strikes and work-to-rule campaigns. All of which to say it’s a freaking mess. And worst of all is the lack of support the owners of all these lost bags are getting from the people who are responsible for trying to find their lost luggage. When I arrived at the airport in Madrid I was directed to a desk operated by the European Consumer Connection Network where they took all my information and issued me a reference number along with a phone number I could call if my backpack doesn’t turn up in seven days. Good enough, only when I tried to call the number it was no longer in service. Surprise. Surprise. This has become an all too common practice with a lot of customer service offices. The number is either no longer in service, or you have to remain on hold for eternity. On top of that, I have not received a single update either by text, or email, regarding my claim. The other problem is that the same under-staffed, disgruntled union members who are trying to find your bag are the same ones who lost it in the first place. So, although I remain guardedly optimistic that my backpack will eventually be found, I’m less optimistic that it will be found anytime soon. Hopefully, by Christmas would be nice. It would make a helluva present. Fred Sherwin, editor

Cross one more item off the post-pandemic bucket list My music festival bucket list has finally been completed with my going to the Tomorrowland festival in Boom, Belgium, a couple of weeks ago. It started with the New Orléans Jazz and Heritage Festival in May, which greatly exceeded all of the expectations I had built up over more than 15 years. But if the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival exceeded my expectations, Tomorrowland blew them out of the water and sky high. If you haven’t heard of Tomorrowland, don’t worry, most people over the age of 30 haven’t either. The festival is specific to electronic dance music, or EDM music, including house music and techno music. It’s also the biggest festival in the world in terms of layout, (picture Wonderland but with stages instead of rides) and it’s among the largest festivals in the world in terms of paid attendance with more than 100,000 people attending the event each day over three weekends. The Tomorrowland festival had been on my bucket list for over nine years, ever since I happened upon a YouTube video of Dutch DJ Hardwell’s set at the 2013 festival. The faces in the crowd representing dozens of different countries were so filled with joy that I just had to experience it for myself. Unfortunately, Tomorrowland tickets are among the hardest festival tickets to come by with it rivaling the NCAA Final Four and the Masters. In order to have the opportunity to buy a ticket you must first go through a preregistration process that’s akin to a lottery. Then you must be one of first 200 people in your country to go online and actually get through. I made it past the pre-registration, but failed to get a ticket even with assistance of my two sons and my daughter. So then I had to take a different route
Up Front Fred Sherwin which was to buy four tickets from a third party on the Tomorrowland 2022 ticket swap Facebook page. Fortunately, I connected with a couple living outside of Amsterdam who had bought their tickets back in 2020 but couldn’t use them because the festival had to be canceled due to the pandemic. Unfortunately, they couldn’t go this year because they had already planned a trip across Europe in their newly renovated camper with their two young children. And as the saying goes “one man’s misfortune can be another man’s opportunity”, and so I had the opportunity to buy four tickets to this year’s festival with the attention of taking my two sons Jamie and Dylan. (Maggie is not much for large crowds or EDM music.) The tickets are actually bracelets which you can use to enter and re-enter the festival grounds. They can also be “loaded” with money which you can then use for all your purchases. So here comes the crazy part. Not only did I buy tickets for the festival, but they also included four nights camping on the festival grounds. And when I say camping I don’t mean the civilized kind with a serviced site that are spread equa-distance apart. I’m talking about a mish-mash of thousands of tents set up chock-a-block together on an unserviced site. On the plus side, they do have heated showers and the portable toilets are among
the best I’ve ever used with lighting and flushing capabilities. The best part about camping at the festival is having the opportunity to meet people from all over the world. In fact, Tomorrowland prides itself on being a global event. They sell a minimum of 20 tickets in 100 different countries. On a tour of the campground, I saw flags from more than 30 different countries before I stopped counting. The boys and I were fortunate to camp beside a group of young people from Germany, who I now refer to as my Tomorrowland family. They were Will, Kamil, Daniel, Anna, Anne, Colin and Mathias. Will and Kamil are both from Germany, buy they are currently living in Switzerland. Beside them there was also a group of people from Brazil, one of whom has been to Tomorrowland every weekend of every year except one when he had to attend a family matter. And I can’t forget Emilie and Lukas, who are also from Germany and joined up with us on the second or third day. These young people were amazing in their
willingness to allow an old guy from Canada to join them and experience Tomorrowland together, because it is not a festival one attends as much as it is a festival that has to be experienced. My boys experienced the festival too but in a slightly different manner. I am a big fan of a lot of the DJs who performed on the main stage like Hardwell, Nervo, Amin van Buren, Timmy Trumpet and Martin Garrix, while the boys aren’t big EDM fans per se. Instead of hanging around the main stage, they wandered around the other 15 stages and took in the entirety of the festival, which I envy them for. I wish I had found more time to visit the other stages. By the end of the five-day festival I was both exhausted and elated. I was also sad at the fact that it had come to an end and I had to part ways with my new friends. But not to worry, we plan to meet again at next year’s festival. In the meantime, Will, Kamil and I have promised to meet at the next festival on my bucket list, the Ultra Music Festival in Miami next March. I just have to start saving my pennies.

It is then sliced and served on top of yogurt made in-house and garnished with a small skewer of lamb kebab. Other mouth-watering delicacies Sunil and Anjum Kurichh include Classic Pirzola lamb chops; the File of Sole; the Turkish Balik which is a Rainbow Trout fillet seasoned with Turkish spices and charcoaled grilled; and chicken wings made Turkish Village style.

Providing excellence in legal services to Orleans and surrounding communities has always been a priority for Riopelle Group Professional Corporation. And what better way to do that than expand into a larger space. After 13 years on St. Joseph Boulevard, Riopelle Group moved to the Taylor Creek Business Park area, settling in at 500 Lacolle Way, a plaza-style building featuring spacious, bright new offices and additional parking for clients. “We simply outgrew the office on St. Joseph and moving to a bigger location was necessary if we wanted to grow our business,” said Robert Riopelle, senior partner with Riopelle Group. “It has proven to be a beneficial move for us. We’ve been able to bring on additional staff as a result.” One of the newest additions to Riopelle Group is Marla Bouffard, a young lawyer who joined the firm in October. Bouffard, fully bilingual, practises real estate, litigation, family law, and wills and estates. “Bringing in new lawyers is important for the growth of the firm,” says Riopelle. “Mentoring young lawyers, providing them with guidance and opportunity is also beneficial to our community overall.” Riopelle Group lawyers practise business, family law, real estate, civil litigation and wills and estate matters, and can provide services in English and in French. Whether buying or selling a business or dealing with difficult disputes or emotional matters such as divorce, custody or death, Riopelle Group can help.

Devoted Blackburn Hamlet dentist
Growing up in a small town in northern Québec, Dr. Plant wanted to be a doctor until a friend convinced her to visit the dental faculty at Laval University, and she was captivated. Her four years of school at Faculté de médecine dentaire - Université Laval were demanding – learning dental terminology, making diagnoses, developing interpersonal skills and even creating dentures; all aspects of the dental school had Dr. Plant excited to launch her career. After her first child was born, Dr. Plant opened her clinic in the Blackburn Shoppes mall on Innes Road in 2003 – she loved the small-town feel of the area. Her husband – now a real estate broker – was the one who found the location. Nineteen years later, Dr. Plant is a well-respected and a beloved part of the community – having grown from two team members to 14. Many of her very first patients still visit for all of their dental needs! Bringing oral care to those without access is a passion of Dr. Plant’s. She has done missions to Kenya, Bolivia, and Guatemala, and is hoping to do so again soon, perhaps taking one of her four kids with her. Did you know that smiling prompts the brain to produce positive emotions? “If you’re hiding your smile because of cracked, broken or stained teeth, it’s never, ever too late!” says Dr. Plant. “Don’t be embarrassed or procrastinate. Whether it’s something small or even big, we can certainly help and make our patients – and their lives – better.” Ranking the importance of oral care at 9/10 in overall health, with good communication and patience, Dr. Plant has been able to help thousands of people with their confidence. Dr. Plant and her team are there to encourage and guide the patients through the different steps. “If someone has dental problems, it can affect them in so many ways, from being unable to eat healthy food to risking infection that can affect their body.” Don’t put off going to the dentist – it’s an important part of your overall health. Blackburn Shoppes Dental Centre welcomes new patients - you can contact them at 613-834-5959 or online at www.ottawafamilydentist.com. It’s the first step in what will be a ful“filling” experience!
Follow your artistic passion at Da Artisti
If you are looking for a unique artistic experience, then you should consider taking a fused glass class at the Da Artisti Studio and Gallery in Cumberland Village. Fusing is the heating of two or more pieces of glass in a kiln so that they melt together to form one piece. The result is an object that has a stained glass quality with colour and texture, but without the leading that is required in making stained glass. You can also do a lot more with fused glass. You can make dishes and decorative panels, or jewelry, or use it as an embellishment for other objects like night lights. The 1-on-1 and group classes at Da Artisti are taught by owner Wendy Canci who is an accomplished fused glass artist in her own right. Each class is three hours long, during which you will make your own fused glass creation. In the introductory class, you will make a 5” x 10” platter, a soap dish and a pendant. In the intermediate class, you will learn to cut circles and make a 12” bowl using glass enamels, or glass powders. If you don’t have three hours to spare, you have the option of taking one of Da Artisti’s workshops which range from 90 minutes to two hours. Depending on the workshop you have the option of making a night light, a strip construction 2-plate set or an enamel pour platter. All of the classes are ongoing, but take place on demand. To reserve a spot, simply call the studio at 613-833-2565. Better yet, you can drop by the Cumberland Village gallery at 2565 Old Montreal Rd., chat with Wendy and browse through some of the many unique pieces produced by local artists and artisans. In establishing the studio and gallery five years ago, Wendy’s goal was to create a judgement-free environment where creativity is embraced and experiments are celebrated. It’s that environment that makes Da Artisti so welcoming to aspiring artists, even if those aspiring artists are looking to express their inner creativity for the first time.
Da Artisti A Studio•toGallery Learn In Studio
Da Artisti offers 1-on-1 and group fused glass workshops and classes. We provide all the knowledge, tools and materials needed to succeed. Learn the basics and you’ll be able to come in and play in our studio!

Keeping Orléans motorists on the road for over 27 years
Whether you are planning a summer vacation that will include a good deal of driving, or you plan on making frequent trips to the cottage, you should consider taking your car in to Precision Automotive on Vantage Drive for a check-up. With 10 bays, five licensed technicians and one apprentice technician, Precision is the largest service centre in Orléans. They also have the expertise to service any make and model of vehicle. While many people will opt for an oil change at one of a myriad of places that specialize in quick oil changes, the people who normally work at those establishments do not have the type of mechanical expertise that Precision’s technicians have, to give your car a thorough inspection. Technicians at Precision will check all your fluid levels, tire condition and pressure as well as all your drive belts and hoses. There is nothing more annoying than losing a drive belt or blowing a hose in the middle of nowhere. Not only is it inconvenient, but it can cost you valuable vacation time, not to mention a potentially expensive towing bill. Besides belts, hoses and tires, a Precision technician can also inspect your brakes, suspension, exhaust and even your air conditioning. So why not take advantage of their expertise and have your vehicle checked out today to avoid the chance of a potential headaches tomorrow? Nothing has the potential to ruin your vacation plans worse than an unexpected mechanical failure that could have been easily prevented by a trip to Precision Automotive. As the saying goes, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” Precision Automotive owner Rob Brouwer and his staff have been providing peace of mind along with honest service and honest value for over 26 years. They offer an industry-leading 2 year/40,000km warranty on most newly installed parts and labour. Precision Automotive is located at 385 Vantage Dr. behind the McDonald’s at Innes and Tenth Line Road. You can also visit their web site at precisionautomotive.ca or call them at 613-841-5550. Happy motoring!

Experience ‘Finer Dining’ at Promenade, by Alavida Lifestyles Special to the The Orléans Star
To live in a vibrant retirement community is to feel like you always have the opportunity to participate in stimulating activities and to experience new and exciting things, right there in your own home. In fact, in all three locations in Ottawa, the team at Alavida Lifestyles strives to rethink senior living by creating a resident experience that is personal, memorable and exceeds their expectations. And at Promenade Seniors’ Suites & Retirement Residence in Orléans, General Manager Seán Kelly says, “we’ve chosen to focus on building a reputation for having created a finer dining experience with a level of quality, consistency and variety that is unmatched by any other retirement community in the region.” Although the culinary team at Promenade offers the usual “meat & potatoes” style options that their residents are used to, they are constantly encouraging the residents to venture outside their comfort zones by curating authentic dishes inspired by different cultures and regions around the world. The menu at Promenade regularly invites residents and their guests to experience culinary adventures that feature
authentic dishes curated from French, Mediterranean, Indian, Thai, Greek, Italian and Southern cuisine… to name just a few! Each month Promenade hosts a Gala Dinner to celebrate the birthdays and anniversaries of their residents. Most of these Gala Dinners are assigned a distinct cultural or regional theme that is then honoured by the cooks. The entire menu, from the soup through to the dessert is created using traditional recipes and a few recent Gala Dinner themes have included New Orleans, Canadian Maple Syrup, the Philippines, Ukraine, and an unforgettable Surf & Turf BBQ. The culinary team at Promenade uses fresh ingredients and makes just about everything on the menu from scratch, which is a big reason why dining at The Promenade is consistently a level above the others. Unlike most retirement communities, where the average menu cycle is a threeor four-week-long term before meals are repeated, Promenade goes the extra mile by challenging the culinary team to offer a six-week-long menu cycle. Feedback is critical to their success. Constant communication between Promenade staff and residents ensures that when they are not
fond of a particular dish, it is adjusted or replaced with something new in the following cycle. “We’ve chosen to set the bar quite high when it comes to maintaining a finer dining experience that sets us far apart from the other retirement residences and communities in our region,” said Seán Kelly, “and now the staff and residents at Promenade would like to invite you to
experience it for yourself. When booking a tour, we invite you to allow enough time to enjoy a no-commitment-required, complimentary meal for two.” For more information or to RSVP today, contact our Lifestyle Specialist Judie Wheeland at 613-229-7973, or lifestyle. promenade@alavidalifestyles.com. Don’t wait… call today to book your tour and dinner for two at Promenade in Orleans!

Stray Dog Brewing Co. celebrating five years in business By Fred Sherwin The Orléans Star Whoever invented the phrase, “time flies when you’re having fun,” must have had Stray Dog Brewing Company owners Marc Plante and Justin MacNeill in mind when they did because the past five years seem to have flown by as they and their many loyal patrons have had a blast along the way – except for a few stressful months during the pandemic. Plante and MacNeill started out by brewing their own beer out of their basements. Their first focus group was their friends who loved their brew so much, the partners started to think about taking the giant leap from their basements to operating their own microbrewery. They decided to locate in the Taylor Creek Business Park and the rest is history. They started off with three brews and things took off from there. They soon started expanding their brands as well as their business as more and more bars and restaurants started putting their beer on their drink menus. They even started booking live entertainment in the tap room. Everything was going
tickety-boo until the pandemic hit forcing bars and restaurants to close overnight. When the unthinkable happened, Plante and MacNeill were quick to pivot to a takeout and delivery model which proved to be more successful than they could have ever imagined. Business was so good that they managed to retain most of their staff who started filling orders and delivering them to customers who were getting thirsty while isolating at home. The direct-to-consumer effort went so well that Plante and MacNeill took the risky move to expand production by adding two new fermenters and a brite tank to their facility. When the COVID pandemic restrictions were lifted in the spring, things at the microbrewery really started hopping. They continue to have live music every weekend. There’s a Trivia Night every Wednesday and a Bring Your Own Vinyl Night every Thursday. The Stray Dog Brewing Company will officially celebrate its 5th anniversary on Saturday, Sept. 17 starting at 2 p.m. There will be guest beers, food vendors, and live music. All are welcome, and it’s a chance for
Stray Dog Brewing Company co-owners Marc Plante (left) and Justin MacNeill managed to turn a dream into a reality that is stronger than ever after five years in business. PHOTO SUPPLIED Marc and Justin to thank the community at large for supporting them throughout the past five years.
