Gearing up for Maple Madness in Picton

By Norman Markland

It is that time of year again, and we here at the Picton BIA have been hard at work planning for Picton’s Maple Madness which takes place on Saturday March 26th. Maple Madness aims to create places and spaces for individuals to come together to celebrate signs of spring. In the past, the Picton BIA has attempted to coordinate activities that draw community residents and visitors to downtown Picton and this year promises to be even better than last!

Maple Madness coincides with Maple in the County which is, in turn, coordinated by Taste the County™. This year marks Maple in the County’s 10th Anniversary. That said, we aim to make our celebration really special! Our main celebration will take place on Elizabeth Street where an urban-like celebration will consist of family fun activities such as a Rock Climbing Wall, Face Painting, Fiddle Entertainment, Magic Show, Smores over an open fire, a Community Market and so much more.

Please contact events@experiencepicton.com at 613.476.7901 ext. 212 as soon as possible if you are a BIA member and would like to be a part by offering specials or activities and would like it included in the BIA Maple Madness promotional flyer.
