Family Day Chili Contest
The Brewery had a special event for family day. It included a 6 pack of Fenelon Brewery beer and 4 containers with chili marked only A,B,C, D. Four local restaurants were competing in the chili taste competition. Here we see Ava Bergeron and her friends, Emma, Karina and Gabrielle with their chili grading sheet. We know what their favourites were but we haven’t seen the final published results. Who had the most votes for best chili? The Cow & Sow? Ziraldos? The Lotus Bistro? Or The Locker? We need to know!!! Results will be announced Friday February 25.

As a way of saying thank you for your contributions, each month, a random winner is chosen to receive a $25 gift card from the local business of their choice. We’d like to celebrate the 2021 winners and encourage you to keep sending in your wonderful photos and articles about local events and people.

What’s Up With the Sign Wars?
If you have been driving or walking through Fenelon, it is hard to miss the number of signs on storefronts, windows, and sandwich boards calling out other businesses. What started as a spontaneous sign in a Southwest Virginia town, has now turned into a friendly roast across the US-Canada border. The war has reached our small village of Fenelon Falls and our businesses do not lack creativity.
