Annual Lancaster & Bainsville Yard Sales

Raisin River Canoe Race
The Raisin River Canoe Race is one of the longest canoe races in Eastern Ontario! First started in 1973, the 30km course runs from St. Andrews to Williamstown. The race is always held during the spring freshet when water levels are high and flows are favourable for paddlers. The event is organized by the Raisin Region Conservation Authority.
