We rely on our fabulous sponsors to help us get the word out about the Festival, and you always come through! What can we say? Thanks doesn't seem sufficient, but on this beautiful Monday morning, we are (almost) at a loss for words. Thank you, thank you, thank you! We look forward to working with you again next year.

Well, another festival has been put to bed. What a weekend it was! A record number of visitors, lots to see and do and the Lilacs were in full display. Who could have asked for a better time? We couldn't have done it all without a lot of help and support from the community. Thank you all for helping us to showcase our little piece of heaven. Janice Allen and Kim Gallant co-chairs, WLF committee
