CAFRAMO PARTNERS WITH WIARTON WILLIE FESTIVAL

The 54th annual Wiarton Willie Festival is pleased to announce that this year's Wiarton Willie Festival is going to be more spectacular than ever! Caframo once again will partner with the festival as a major sponsor. Caframo will be the title sponsor of the Prediction Day Fireworks and Parade of Lights. Caframo will also be spearheading the festivals new volunteer program called Willie's Magic Friends. Caframo's staff are getting into the action once again, by donating time to the festival. Caframo's partnership investment in the festival is $5,000.

Shane Sargant, Festivals and Events Coordinator with the town of South Bruce Peninsula, says "We met with Caframo in early fall to talk about growing the event and taking it to a new level." Willie's Magic Friends will be our volunteer theme and pays tribute to Mac Mckenzie who started the festival by inviting his "magic friends" to our community. The Volunteers are the cornerstone of the Wiarton Willie Festival. The Festival, in Partnership with the HRSDC Job Creation Partnership Program and the Sauble Beach Chamber of Commerce, will have a full time Magic Friends Coordinator to assist with the Wiarton Willie Festival.

Tony Solecki, President, said "Caframo is a proud Canadian manufacturer of fans and heaters. Wiarton Willie is an acknowledged prognosticator of when our customers will switch from using heaters to using fans each year, and so he has been an essential part of our planning process for decades. Every year we wait with great anticipation for his guidance. We are therefore proud to again be a sponsor for the Wiarton Willie festival."
