CRAN-ANNE LOOK-ALIKE CONTEST
Bala’s Museum with Memories of Lucy Maud Montgomery 1024 Maple Ave. Corner
of Maple Ave. and River Street, 2 blocks off the main street.
Once again, our contest will be an excellent opportunity to enjoy the Bala Cranberry Festival, which has become one of the most popular small town fairs in all Ontario. It attracts up to 25,000 people to a Muskoka resort town that has only 500 people year-round. There will be a small cost to participate in the contest – $1 for the contestant, plus a Cranberry Festival button. Contestants should arrive by 1:30 to be registered. The big question is what Anne of Green Gables would look like if she showed up at the Bala Cranberry Festival. The judges base their selection upon the contestants’ knowledge of Anne of Green Gables, their costumes and – perhaps most important of all – their Anne-ness. Every year, a young girl shows up who is just right. This is a great family outing that Anne Shirley and Diana would have enjoyed immensely. Plan to tour the museum either before or after the contest. And don’t miss the Anne of Green Gables gift shop! Every one of our contestants can count upon receiving a prize. The winner’s prize was donated in 2010 by Kindred Spirits of P.E.I. Its owner, George Campbell, who also owns the must-see Anne of Green Gables Family Museum at Park Corner, P.E.I., is a relative of L.M. Montgomery. Other contestants’ prizes were donated by Bala’s Museum. To learn more: Just call us at 1-888-579-7739, or e-mail us at balamus@muskoka.com Our proud winners:
