A somewhat chilly and sometimes wet Barrie Waterfront Festival failed to deter many of its visitors on the weekend. The Centennial Park event celebrated its 20th year this spring with the usual rides, music, games and array of food. Alyah Stead, 9, of Barrie, was quite pleased with the free hot dogs on offer, and even shared some of it with her younger sister, Averie. She didn’t mind the overcast sky and cooler temperatures, for her it was all about the carnival rides, especially cars.
