Maple Syrup Festival Pancake Breakfast
The Maple Syrup Festival pancake breakfast at the Heritage Park Event Center, the first big gathering of the society's year. Serving time to be announced.
Each winter the society collects sap at Heritage Park, and the operating Sugar Shack turns it into syrup. The Maple Syrup Festival Pancake Breakfast is where it lands: a Saturday morning at the Event Center, and the first big gathering of the year.
What the day involves
The festival begins with a pancake breakfast. The day includes:
- All-you-can-eat pancakes in the Event Center, served with the society’s own freshly made maple syrup.
- Displays and demonstrations of the tools and techniques Native Americans and early settlers used to collect and process maple syrup and sugar.
- The Sugar Shack in action - visit the working shack and watch maple syrup being made.
- Indoor activities - videos showing how maple syrup is produced, and hands-on crafts for children.
- Maple treats to buy - the society’s own maple syrup, and maple popcorn, maple lollipops and maple cotton candy made with it.
Times and prices
Serving hours have changed from year to year; in 2024 breakfast ran from 7:00 to 11:00 a.m. Times for 2027 will be confirmed. Prices will be announced closer to the date.
