Palmerston Raleway Festival attracts crowd despite rain

Josh Gignac and Marsha Kisilak purchased two limited edition copper cups at the festival and raised a glass, despite the rain. The cups are in honour of Palmerston’s 150th Homecoming. Photo by Joanne Shuttleworth

Juanita and the Big Deal got a few wry smiles at the festival as they sang Have You Ever Seen the Rain. And then they had to stop for thunder and lightning. Photo by Joanne Shuttleworth
