The Niagara Foundation was pleased to sponsor the fireworks on the Monday evening of Victoria Day at the 2024 Virgil Stampede. The Virgil Stampede, organized by the Virgil Business Association, has a history stretching back over 56 years and today brings together the community over three days every May.
As part of the “nickel sale” fundraising at the Stampede for another long-time local group, Red Roof Retreat, we donated as prizes two of our books, Early Architecture of the Town and Township of Niagara, and Virgil t-shirts designed by Foundation director Clare Cameron. (The book is also available for sale at the Niagara Museum.)
