SUMMARY:Fergus Ghost Walks - September 26\, October 3\, 9\, 16\, 17\, 23\, 29\, and 30
DESCRIPTION:Join our actors/historians as they lead you on a lantern walk and guided tour of the mysteries and histories of one of Canada’s most haunted villages. You’ll learn about the gristly end of the town clockmaster\, the bagpiper’s lament\, the famous doctor with a dark secret\, the legend of the Ancient Ones\, and many more captivating stories from the early days of Fergus. \nThe walk takes about an hour and a half and covers a good portion of downtown Fergus\, including a steep hill and some uneven ground. It could be challenging for people with mobility issues. Children are welcome\, but please be aware that it is not intended as a children’s event. Younger children will soon become bored. \nFergus Ghost Walks begin at the Bookery at 8:00 pm sharp. Tickets for the Ghost Walk are limited.

SUMMARY:Empty Bowls - Sunday\, Nov 1
DESCRIPTION:The Empty Bowls Project raises both funds and awareness for the fight against poverty and hunger in our community. Local professional potters generously donate their time and talent\, crafting unique soup bowls for Sensational Elora to support fundraising efforts that directly address food insecurity in Centre Wellington. \nThese bowls will be available at the Sensational Soup Off on Sunday\, November 1\, 2026\, at Aboyne Hall. When you attend\, you’ll be invited to select from a stunning array of handcrafted bowls. Every purchase of an Empty Bowl goes entirely to the Centre Wellington Food Bank and the CW Eats program. \nNot only are Empty Bowls wonderful for everyday use\, they also make thoughtful gifts—perfect for a housewarming\, a thank-you\, or simply sharing something special. Each one is beautiful\, one-of-a-kind\, and most importantly\, when you buy one\, you help support those in need right here in Centre Wellington. \nThe Sensational Soup Off is an annual event where up to 18 professional\, amateur\, and youth chefs will compete to become the “Super Souper” of 2026. Use your empty bowl to sample all of the soups and then cast your ballot for your favourites. At the end of the event\, your bowl will be rinsed for you. Your Empty Bowl is yours to take home. \nThank you to our 2025 bowl makers:\n Colibri Pottery (Claudia Lambert)\, Elora Pottery (Staci Barron)\, Murray Fox Pottery\,  Grove Pottery (Pauline Grove)\,  Gleason Brook Pottery (Tim Smith)\, Cobalt Gallery (Annette Hansen)\, and Play With Clay (Nina and Mario)
