On behalf of the Town of Carbonear and my colleagues on Council I extend greetings to all citizens and visitors that partake in Carbonear Days activities. The Carbonear Special Events Committee has delivered a fun-filled, action packed weekend with events for people of all ages. I encourage everyone to get out, have fun and take advantage of all that is offered. A special thank you is extended to the Special Events Committee for their endless hours of hard work and dedication in planning and delivering such events. Due to their tireless efforts, Carbonear Days is made possible. Again, let’s show our wonderful community spirit and make this weekend an amazing festival.
