The CGS is excited that our annual festival is returning to Black Creek Pioneer Village. If you haven’t been to Black Creek pioneer Village before this, you are sure to find this a thrilling place to be. It is a living history park in an outdoor setting. The parking is $6/day so car pooling may be an idea if you are going to be there all weekend. Admission is $13 to the public however, volunteers and students who pre-register will receive free daily passes. A variety of food and refreshments are available on site. Gourdfest will be held at the same time that Black Creek Pioneer Village hosts their “Howling Hootenany”! Canadian Gourd Society highlights include:
