1812 at the Fort
We recently played our annual concert at Fort Henry with our wonderful Kingston Symphony. The symphony has been performing at the Fort every summer for many years. The most anticipated part of the concert is the always finale performance of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, during which the Fort Henry Guard joins us with firing cannons and fireworks that can be heard throughout downtown Kingston. We are also lucky enough to have wonderful guest performers join us. Past guests have been Georgette Fry, Night Sun, The Abrams Brothers and this year, Jill Barber. Despite wild, windy weather (you may recall a crazy 10 minute storm two weekends ago) and several lost channels on the soundboard due to rain, the concert went off without a hitch and made for a great way to spend the evening. Can't wait to find out who will be with us next year!

Anyone for golf?
Today we are playing at Cataraqui Golf Course, not for the benefit of the golfers but for a wedding. It promises to be a hot one. We are hoping for shade!
