Event Details - Old Fashioned Family Picnic

Wilson's Point Historic Site is proud to be hosting the Miramichi Scottish Festival Old Fashioned Family Picnic once again this year. Come out to where it all began and enjoy!

We begin the festivities at noon with the Steeves Brothers: Bearded Bards playing in front of the interpretive center. Inside you will get to enjoy a beautiful display of homemade quilts and maybe even take one home. The Miramichi Art Core will be on site all day painting plein air and their art work that will available for purchase inside the interpretive center later in the day. The Healing Farm will have their therapy animals ready to be cuddled and fed at the back of the interpretive center, where you will also find McKenna Entertainment ready to add a splash of color to faces young and old alike. Funtastic Inflatables will be in the field adjacent the site for some bouncy fun and the Campbell boys will be running a cash BBQ with loads of tasty options. You can have a personal tour of the site with William Davidson and finish off the day with a snow cone. New this year is an activity for the adults: Halimac Axe Throwing will be on site, gather your clansmen for a friendly competition, this is a fee for this, so bring your wallets. Miramichi Accessible Transit will be providing a shuttle service from the parking areas to the site once again this year. There is something for the entire family to enjoy at no great expense. Don't forget to bring your blanket and your lawn chairs and the family dog.

Come join us for this fantastic family event!
