Car Show at fairgrounds
Parade is set for Saturday
Leamington’s annual Tomato Festival is celebrating its 30th year with changes and additions to the usual fun weekend of events scheduled for August 15-18. “This has been an exciting undertaking and we hope everyone will be pleasantly surprised by the changes,” said Mike Ciacelli, co-chair of the Festival. “First and foremost, let’s clarify that the parade is set for Saturday, August 17th. We just received the okay from the school board to use Leamington District Secondary School as a staging ground and starting point. Parade applications will be ready early next week,” he added. “We’ve made changes to the entertainment as well,” said Mike Caufeild-Browne, entertainment coordinator for the Festival. “Not only do we have two well-known entertainers as the headliners, we have two stages as well. Our headliners, Jully (pronounced Julie) Black will be performing on Friday night. She’s best known for her 2008 Grammynominated Single of the Year, “Seven Day Fool” and Rik Emmett, former lead singer/songwriter from Triumph, will be performing on Saturday night. Both performers will be on the lower main stage, taking advantage of the natural amphitheater on the hill. During the day and leading up to both performers, we will have local artists performing on the upper stage in the parking lot,” explained Caufeild-Browne. “There are some other subtle changes as well,” said Festival co-chair Sally McDonald. “We’ve moved the Tomato Stomp to Sunday, which will be Family Day and the entertainment will focus on kids. We also have a designated area for our sponsors’ booths, called Sponsors’ Alley located near the stage and entrance of the Festival. And we will be hosting a VIP rib dinner on the Friday night for those corporate sponsors at Seacliff Park. And of course, we have the Classic Car Show, the volleyball tournaments, and the firefighters’ water barrel fights as well,” said McDonald. The Festival opens on Thursday night at the Leamington Kinsmen Recreation Complex with the Miss Leamington Tomato Festival Pageant.

The 1931 Ford Model A of Blake Hunter included a few custom modifications and was a popular attraction among the 41 entries at the second annual Leamington Agricultural Society Car Show, held Saturday, July 6 at the Leamington Fairgrounds. That evening’s tractor pull was postponed due to wet ground conditions caused by early evening rain. The tractor pull has been rescheduled for Saturday, Sept. 7 with a 4 p.m. start.
