Halton Hills was the place to be on Father's Day weekend when the town was overrun with delighted dads and fun-loving families during the first ever Big Daddy Festival. Organized by the Halton Hills Cultural Roundtable, the weekend-long festival included a wide variety of events in Acton, Georgetown, Norval, Glen Williams and Limehouse. Between the fishing derbies, mini-hikes, live entertainment, art workshops, delicious food, classic car shows, road hockey, interactive demonstrations and motorcycle shows, there was something for every dad at the Big Daddy Festival!
