Oktoberfest in Dundas is taking place on Saturday, starting at 12pm and going until 6pm. The celebration is in its Third Annual year, and while it continues to grow with new items this year, there are still all the favorites from the last few years. Caitlyn Ottis is one of the organizers of Oktoberfest:
“So a lot of the old reliable that you’re used to from the last couple of years, as far as the vendors, the German music. We’ve got food from Little Prairie Church and Ruth’s on Stafford. And then we’ve got some new vendors in as well, some new food items, and some new craft vendors and family activities.” – Caitlyn Ottis, Event Organizer of Dundas Oktoberfest on KYMN In The Morning
