NORTH WELLINGTON – The 2024 Saugeen Culture Bus Tour is scheduled for Oct. 26.
It will take participants through some cultural sites in Wellington North, Minto and Hanover.
The tour kicks off at 10am sharp with a return at 4pm.
Buses will be departing from locations in Arthur, Harriston and Hanover.
For $25, participants will visit a lineup of stops that officials say would typically cost over $150.
This includes visiting the Silver Fox Distillery (Arthur) for a tour and tastings, the Mount Forest Museum and Archives for a historical tour, and The Barrel House (Clifford) where more tastings will be offered.
The day will also feature a live performance by the Grey Wellington Theatre Guild at the Harriston Town Hall and a behind-the-scenes tour of the Hanover Civic Theatre. Storytelling at the Hanover Cemetery will add a deeper connection to the region’s past.
Throughout the day, guests will enjoy a variety of refreshments, including a bagged lunch, a donut from Shultz’s Gone Totally Baked (Hanover), coffee from Ashanti Café (Hanover), and a special gift from Casa Verde (Arthur).
Organizers have also planned a few surprises along the way to make the experience even more memorable.
The tour’s full agenda will be shared with ticket holders approximately one week before the event.
Tickets can be purchased online at SaugeenCultureBusTour.Eventbrite.ca.
It’s important to note that one of the buses departing from Harriston will have a service animal (dog) on board. Participants with allergies are encouraged to book a seat on a bus from a different location.
