Up at the arena and curling club is the annual "Rockhound Gemboree" with vendors from all over North America. Bancroft is the gem capital of Canada and hosts the largest gem show every Civic Holiday..
They wouldn't let me take pictures indoors but they did have a climbing wall outside for the kids. This little guy had no problem reaching the top.
Farmers' Markets are very popular during our summer and fall seasons. We enjoy taking in the Maynooth Farmers' Market if we are home.
Lots of fresh produce available from the local farmers.
Then is was back to Bancroft for the annual "Arts and Crafts" show in Millennium Park. This was the 30th year for the show and the weather was perfect.
Lots of vendors from the area displaying and selling their creations.
Next week is the "Old Home Week" celebrating Bancroft's 150th birthday and then the Jazz Festival, August 17th. We are impressed that so much is happening in a town that has a population of just 3,500.
Looking forward to seeing you up here this summer.
