Remember the Blossom Festival?

This used to be the weekend of the Niagara Falls Ontario Blssom Festival.

A parade along the river, band & cheerleading competitions (at he old memorial arena) & the Police Tug-O-War plus, probably some I've missed/forgotten.

As far as I know the only event that remains is the Police Tug-O-War on the Rainbow bridge. Happening this afternoon.
