Truro Treasures Weekend and Truro Winery Grape Stomp

GET READY FOR A FUN-FILLED WEEKEND IN TRURO!

Truro Treasures began in 1992 when several community members, most notably Betty Groom and Boo Houstoun, envisioned a fall weekend for children and adults to raise money to help save the Highland Lighthouse, and to promote community pride and interest in Truro. As a result, a non-profit organization, called Truro Treasures, was created to sponsor the event. Since then Truro Treasures has evolved and expanded into an annual fall weekend event that is crammed full of activities.

This year's theme is "Community Spirit", and the Lighthouse logo is reminiscent of the first Truro Treasures, organized to help raise money to preserve Highland Lighthouse.

The weekend begins on Friday evening with a cocktail party at Adrian's Restaurant, 5 - 7 pm, right on Route 6, cash bar and complimentary hors d'oeuvres.
