Labor Day Picnic Cancelled

An annual tradition in Kenora might be coming to an end.

The Labor Day picnic put on by the Kenora and District Labor Council has been cancelled this year.

A spokesperson for the labor council says volunteer burn-out, and a lack of new volunteers is behind the decision to cancel this year's picnic.

Over the past few years, the community picnic has been held at Beatty Park in Keewatin on the Monday of the Labor Day long weekend.
