FERGUS – The Fergus Scottish Festival is gearing up for another big festival weekend August 11-13th.
On Wednesday morning, the Festival held a media event to give a little insight into what to expect at this year’s festival and also allowed the media to learn how to toss a caber.
Billie & Paulie from The Grand at 101 were in attendance. Producer Paulie was one of many who gave Caber tossing a try. A video will be posted on The Grand at 101 website and social media outlets tomorrow morning on how Paulie did.
