Huge Success

If you did not come to the Harvest Festival on Saturday, you missed out on a fabulous community event. With hundreds of people passing through Centennial Park,the Queenston Street neighbourhood felt a sense of community pride that hasn't been felt in recent memory.
There was a buzz around the park with a bouncy slide for the kids, a cheerful clown, craft vendors and music, a basic bike repair station and $2 meal deal barbeque. There was no shortage of entertainment and delight in the park and it truly did have a Harvest Festival flavour throughout the day.
One of the greatest successes of the day was the basic act of bringing people into Centennial Park. Countless people mentioned how they had never been down in that park before and how it was "the Central Park of St. Catharines". There was a great vibe in the park that had people talking.
