Hey KHR!

Grab your hats and hold on to your feathers - the duck race is back in town! 

We are so excited to be kicking off the Canada Day Celebrations with a little friendly competition. Our brand new ducks are ready to dive in once again, and we hope you are too! 

You can register by following this link: Duck Race Form. It is one dollar to enter and you could win a cash prize if your lucky duck crosses the finish line in first, second, or third!

Annual Classic Car Show 

Our much-anticipated annual Classic Car Show is just around the corner, and we’re inviting all classic car enthusiasts to join us for a day of vintage charm, community spirit, and automotive nostalgia. If you’ve got a classic car, whether it’s a lovingly restored beauty or a well-preserved original, we’d love for you to bring it out and put it on display for fellow car lovers to admire. This event is always a local favourite, drawing a great crowd and featuring a wide variety of makes, models, and stories behind the cars. It’s the perfect opportunity to connect with other enthusiasts, show off your pride and joy, and enjoy a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere. To top it off, we’ll be firing up the grill for a delicious BBQ lunch, so come hungry and ready for a great time. Whether you're showing a car or just coming to enjoy the sights, we can't wait to see you there!
