It’s juicy, saucy and messy and it will be back again this year. The Cornwall Sea- way Lions Club Ribfest, that takes over the beautiful waterfront Lamoureux Park on an annual basis, is set to do it all again, this time even bigger! The event , which is nowbeing held across the province’s biggest cities such as Ottawa, Kingston, London, Whitby, Oshawa and many others, is being hailed as the Corn- wall Seaway Lions Club’s signature event. Although pork lovers flood the community “ When it comes to meeting challenges, our response is simple,” states the local club’s website. “We serve. In 206 countries, in hospitals, and senior centers, in regions battered by natural disasters, in schools and eyeglass recycling centers, Lions are doing community volunteer work, helping, leading, planning and supporting. Because we’re local, we can serve the unique needs of the communities we live in and because we’re global, we can address challenges the go beyond borders. ” Cornwall Seaway Lions Club gearing up for another Ribfest park for ribs, the many vendors also offer barbecued chicken, amongst other things. In their first year, Ribfest organizers were anticipating approximately 20,000 patrons to the festival. Instead, 47,000 showed up at the park throughout the weekend. So un- anticipated was the turnout that the entire weekend’s supply of ribs was sold the first night and a truckload of supplies had to be shipped in. Of course, a festival isn’t complete with- out the entertainment and the Cornwall Ribfest has a great combination of local and international artists to help celebrate the event. The entertainment spans musical genres and includes recording artists Hoyt Hughes, Greg Hanna, and local favourites, Switchgear and the Shiners, among many more. The Cornwall Seaway Lions Club was founded in 1980 and raises money for the less fortunate in the community. World- wide, the foundation has over 1.34 million members, with clubs on every continent.
