“Fun Day at The Fort” this Saturday

A local author is teaming with a business geared to fun to present “Fun Day at the Fort” this Saurday.

“Fun Day at the Fort” is a partnership between author K.G. Miceli and The Fort Fun Centre and runs from 11 a.m.-8 p.m. 

Miceli’s most recent book is “Tales of Texas Road” where she worked with people with stories and anecdotes of scary and paranormal happenings along Texas Road but she wanted to emphasize there can be fun times too.

The family-friendly event sees games, activities, a colouring contest, food and refreshments, live entertainment and over 20 vendors.

“They liked the idea I brought to them,” Miceli said of the Fort Fun Centre.

The Amherstburg Fire Department will be there from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. and AM/PM Towing will also be showing off their vehicles as well. 

Leisure Trailer Sales is also expected to attend, she added, with the Rotary Club of Amherstburg planning to help with some of the games.

People can also enjoy the arcade inside if the heat becomes a factor, said Miceli.

There will also be karaoke until 4 p.m. and live music from 4-8 p.m., she stated.

“Fun Day at the Fort” will likely be an annual event, Miceli continued.

“It’s to bring the community together,” she said. 

Miceli added she is also hoping to bring people from outside of Amherstburg to the event so they can see what the town has to offer.

“It’s a big family day at the Fort,” she said.
