The 40th Annual Blueberry Festival in Sioux Lookout starts this Friday.
Dori Hopko is president and says it’s will almost be back to normal this year.
“We don’t have to worry about COVID restrictions with some of the events now,” Hopko says.
“Very, very pleased about that and we are so happy because we can now use our Farlinger Park, which is our town beach. It’s now open and completed. So we’re super, duper excited.”
Hopko says it all gets underway on July 29th.
“We have opening ceremonies starting at 12:00 and the Farmer’s Market is from 10 till 2 pm. It’s going to be fantastic. I see the weatherman says it’s going to be nice and sunny, so we’re pleased with that.”
The Blueberry Festival will run from July 29th until August 7th.
