2008 Kingsport Gala Day

The weather was rather "iffy" leaving Halifax but improved as we headed into the Annapolis Valley to meet other members in Wolfville. Geoff Muttart escorted us through some scenic back roads to Kingsport for the 1:30 PM parade which lasted about 20 minutes. The whole community comes out to support this event with a chicken BBQ, bands playing in two locations and lots of interesting vintage tractors.
