Old Aylmer packed with happiness

Soap box derby down Principale, BMX showcases, cute artisanal vendors – all these were display for the thousands of visitors to Old Aylmer August 21 and 22. Organized by the Corporation Vieux-Aylmer, along with merchants and other volunteers, this event is the evolution of previous summer events in August. “It was crazy!” said one visitor, Logan, aged 8.
