We will also be covering protocol and ways to create more welcoming spaces for two spirit people in your school or workplace. Are there any local artists interested in this project?
And it is my hope that in talking about these injustices, vowing to never repeat them, and acting to right these wrongs, we can begin to heal. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Festival Events Ontario
As a non-profit organization, we rely on the generosity of our friends and audiences to help us bring some of the most utterly-gripping, powerful and globally-relevant work to the festival stage every June. The Story: A colourful and lengthy Kincardine Pride Parade marched through downtown Kincardine, promoting inclusion and acceptance of everyone. Hundreds of people were in the parade, and hundreds more were watching as the parade began at the corner of Broadway and Huron Terrace and wended its way to Victoria Park.
The Story: We had a great event with over participants, plus 6 little ones in our 50m Root Beer Dash! Everyone also received a t-shirt. The Story: Craft cider and beer are increasing in popularity within Ontario. Our small, local craft beer and cider makers have limited options to sell their products so Cheers Caledon gives them the chance to shine alongside better known brands. This was our second year running the event.
For our first year we hoped to sell at least tickets and attendance on the night was about 1, This year our attendance was more than 1, This event really gives our local brewers and food producers chance to shine.
Gay Cruising
Last year we had four local producers, this year we had five. What we learned from last year was that food is a very important component of the craft beer and cider festival. We had more local food providers this year but our biggest post-event comment was that people wanted still more food offerings, which is a big challenge.
We started securing food vendors much earlier this year but we have learned that they must be secured even earlier still.
Another important thing we learned was the power of social media. We partnered with a branding and marketing company to grow the profile on social media, particularly new for the Town on Instagram.
The first year, we created a unique Cheers Caledon Instagram account, which gained followers, and found 53 posts using the CheersCaledon hashtag. This account not only provided pictures but also featured video of the Caledon producers, highlighting local makers, and personal stories. About a third of people heard about our first year event through social media.
This year, about a third again heard about it through social media and another third through word of mouth.
