This is the Victoria Day, May 2-4 Long Weekend in Canada!
Thousands of people will be heading out of town tonight in celebration of the Victoria Day holiday or more commonly known today as the May 2-4 long weekend. It will kick off the opening of many cottages & pools and the planting of gardens across Canada and will end with firework displays in celebration of the holiday.
In recognition of Victoria Day 2012, The City of Brampton will be celebrating all weekend long at the newly enhanced Chinguacousy Park at the corners of Hwy. 7 (Queen St.) and Central Parkway Drive. There will be midway rides operating from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Saturday, Sunday and Monday and Saturday you can 'try it' skateboarding, and rollerblading from 10:00 til 4:00 p.m.
At this event The City of Brampton also asks that you donate any gently used clothing, small household and electronic items in their second annual Fill A Truck event run by the Clothesline and the Canadian Diabetes Association. This could be your chance to win a pair of Toronto Blue Jay tickets for donating.
The City of Brampton is not holding any public fireworks displays this May 2-4 long weekend but does allow personal fireworks provided they are not on any public property, sidewalks, streets, parks, boulevards or school yards. They are only allowed on private property with a front lot size of 60 ft. or more. For more information on fireworks call 3-1-1.
However, if it's fireworks you are after, visit Canada's Wonderland a half hour drive east from The City of Brampton. Canada's Wonderland will be setting off a huge firework display at 10:00 p.m. Sunday May 20th.

Al and Peggy, I am working today, but will spend the next two days around the home, catching up on yardwork.
Al and Peggy this sounds like a special weekend filled with lots of activity. Hope you enjoy it.
Al & Peggy,
I just love it when a community comes together for a celebration and this one sounds so unique!
To me, it's very enticing to discover something different that a city has to offer, rather than the same old, same old stores and just a parade.
You really know how to showcase the best features your cities have to offer. I like that!
Al & Peggy I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Enjoy the fireworks!
