Delta Harvest Festival

 

Held on the last Saturday in September, the Delta Harvest Festival is a village-wide celebration of the fall harvest.

Vendors line the main street and craft vendors can be found at the Fairgrounds along with live music and a car show. The Old Stone Mill is open for tours with a milling demonstration in the afternoon.  Blacksmithing demonstrations are a favourite for visitors in the blacksmith shop beside the Mill. The Old Town Hall is home to the Ginormous Book Sale and the Friends of the Mill table featuring a variety of home baking, preserves, vegetable produce, crafts, plants, dried flowers, all donated by friends of the mill.  Lots of food, fresh-baked goodies, and cool stuff for sale.

Visitors arrive from Ottawa, Kingston, Brockville and many other centres to enjoy the country atmosphere of this lovely village.

 

Date : Sept.28, 2024 from 9:00am – 4:00pm

The club offers learn-to-skate programs, adult skating, figure skating lessons, and hockey development programs. We are always happy to have new members and we look forward to seeing you on the ice!

Figure Skating is the heart of the Westport Area Skating Club! The figure skating program caters to the young and young-at-heart with members ranging from 7 to 57! The skating program in Westport offers an atmosphere of fun, friendship, and fitness rolled into one.

Like the other programs the skating club offers, the figure skating program is a Skate Canada sanctioned program. Skate Canada’s STARSkate program offers oppurtunities for skaters of all ages to develop fundamental figure skating skills in the areas of dance, skating skills, free skate, and interpretive skating. Skaters have the option of taking private or group lesssons depending on their skill level and lesson availability. If the skater chooses, he or she can participate in the nationally standardized testing systems. This allow your son or daughter (or you!) to set personal goals and develop the skills needed to reach their goals at his or her own pace.
