The International Hamfest is held each year on the second full weekend in July.
The first Fest was a picnic held in the Peace Garden with four hams and their families attending.
It has since evolved into a yearly event with a record attendance of nearly 400.
The acitivities center around the Lodge on the US side of the Garden.
There are excellent camping facilities right at the Ham Fest site.
The Hamfest is organized by a volunteer committee consisting of 5 members from each side of the border.
