Butter & Cheese Festival
for the whole family
The 10th annual Wellesley Apple
Butter and Cheese Festival is an event
for the whole family. Al Hart,
secretary -treasurer of the event, ex-
pects 30,000 to attend the festival
held on September 28.
Organizers were recognized this
spring by the Waterloo Region Hotel
and Motel Association. The
Hospitality Award "for creating a
major tourist attraction" in the
Waterloo Region has given the
organizers even more enthusiasm
about the event.
The day starts bright and early at 7
a.m. with a pancake and sausage
breakfast at the downtown street
mall. Visitors will find a farmers'
market in the arena. Others will be in-
terested in the auction of quilts made
by local church groups and clubs.
Waterloo County German and Men-
nonite foods and sweets will be served
at a smorgasbord dinner.
Farm tours will include a visit to an
Amish farm owned and operated by
Allen Kuepfer and sons. The apple
butter and cider mill tours are always
popular with visitors. The bonus is a
free cider sample.
Antique Cars and Tractors, craft
demonstrations, a model boat regat-
ta, outdoor soap -cooking demonstra-
tions, a horseshoe pitching
demonstration, and skydivers just
dropping in are all part of the
festival. E
