LANTZ:<\/strong> After a two year hiatus, East Hants Tidefest returned with a bang at the East Hants Sportsplex in Lantz on July 15-16.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event had a bit of fun for everyone from young to old, and also had a memorial ball tournament held in memory of Graham Isenor at the Peter Smith Memorial fields (won by the NS Canada Games team).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was also double the fun with two East Hants Sports Hall of Fame induction ceremonies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tidefest on July 16 featured a Fun Fair with bouncy castles; food trucks; facepainting; and even a petting zoo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inside, there was a ball hockey tournament, organized by Enfield RFC, while at the Fieldhouse Dome was the fun and traditional washer toss tournament.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At night both Friday and Saturday night, local musicians performed to amazing crowds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We had an amazing weekend back in action for the first Tide Fest since 2019,” organizers posted on their Facebook page. “It\u2019s a feeling like no other, seeing the community come together and celebrate with new faces and old.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They thanked their group of sponsors who make this event possible (tidefest.ca\/sponsorship<\/a> for the full list) and volunteers, including the Come Home East Hants Association board members who put countless hours into the planning of Tide Fest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Thank you East Hants for joining us,” the post said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Organizers said they will share updates on how the proceeds from this event support local non-profits and small businesses, but it\u2019s safe to say that the impact will be huge – as always.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
