Marshville this weekend
Wainfleet
Aug 29, 2008
Step back to the pioneer days of the 18th century this weekend, during the 20th annual Marshville Heritage Festival.

There is plenty to see and do at the pioneer-era festival, from rope making to cider pressing and car shows and entertainment. Marshville starts off tomorrow, Saturday, with a grand opening ceremony at 10 a.m.

Marshville started out in the 1980s with an idea. That idea grew into a village containing 17 heritage buildings and a festival that attracts a crowd of 30,000 to Wainfleet each year.

Marshville Heritage Festival takes place at the heritage grounds in Wainfleet, near Highway 3. Admission is $6, children 10 and under are free. Seniors pay just $5 on Saturday.

Marshville runs Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5:50 p.m. and Monday from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.
