Eatonia’s Canada Day celebrations kicked off with a bike parade, in which many local kids showcased their decorated bikes. A barbecue followed for anyone who was wanting a bite to eat.

Tours were being given of the CN railway caboose, the 1924 CNR railway station and the Eaton Catalogue House throughout the afternoon. The Eaton House had recently received a fresh look, and the train station features many interesting artifacts from the first and second world wars and from the Canadian Legion. There’s also a Cold War bunker in the basement, which is something you don’t often get to see.
