I think it’s safe to say that this weekend in Baristaville is the most jam-packed weekend in its history. There are so many family events, it’s a shame that they are all on the same weekend. But not to worry, it’s still possible to enjoy a few. We told you about the cultural events and the Health and Wellness Day, but there are still more.
