Engage in friendly competition in the CALIPSO Photography Contest or participate in the Decorated Busi- ness Contest. Community Involvement: The Heart of CALIPSO This festival is a reflection of our strong community spirit. Special thanks to all our volunteers, exhibitors, and sponsors for making this possible. Without the community’s sponsorship support, the festival would not be possible. Thanks to the support already received from Domus Development, Elgin County Tourism, Port Stanley Cottages, Realtor Dallas Posthumus, Kettle Creek Swans, Legends Of Lake Erie Boat Tours, St Thomas Self Storage, Stinson Family, Port Stanley Festival Theatre, GT’s On The Beach, Port Stanley Terminal Rail, Port Stanley Villager, Realtor & Port Stanley Dentistry. You still have time to be a sponsor. July 1st is the deadline to be included in the festival Itinerary. For the latest updates and details, be sure to follow our CALIPSO Festival Facebook Group and Instagram page. Look for our flyers and event maps, available from mid-July, throughout the village and at the Tourism Visitor Centre. This festival is more than just a celebration; it’s a community connector and a showcase of the vibrant life in Port Stanley. Join us to connect, celebrate, and create unforgettable memories. Let’s make this summer truly exceptional in Port Stanley!
