Capitalizing on some fantastic weather and a lot of hard work, the Sunday Downtown Promenade on Sunday, August 23rd was a big hit with visitors, vendors, musicians, businesses and volunteers alike.
The wide open streetscape allowed for more than adequate space for proper social distancing and generous room between vendors. Hundreds of people casually strolled the street to the acoustic sounds of local musicians while browsing for unique items at the thirty booths set up along the entire length of the street.
Thanks to everyone, including the volunteers of the Kemptville Farmers’ Market, the Municipality of North Grenville and the Old Town Kemptville BIA who helped to make this remarkable event possible.
