The 2012 Northumberland Ribfest was an overwhelming success! Our seventh annual event will be even better!

Join us in Cobourg's beautiful Victoria Park August 16th to 18th for the 2013 Northumberland Ribfest. On Friday the ribbin' will begin at 12:00 noon and run until 11:00 p.m., Saturday the fun is from 11:00 a.m. until 11:00 p.m. and on Sunday you can have more food and fun from noon until 7:00 p.m.

Northumberland Ribfest isn't just about ribs. We also had a great line-up of entertainers appearing at the historic Victoria Park Band Shell.

Our popular Marketplace will also be back and we'll have a children's activity area for the kids and kids at heart.

This event is a fundraiser to help the Rotary Club of Cobourg support worthy causes at home and abroad. A few of the contributions we have made in the past include:

$500,000 commitment to the Northumberland Hills Hospital
$300,000 commitment to the Cobourg Community Centre
Ongoing development of Cobourg Heritage harbour
Literacy projects at home and abroad
Clean water projects
Polio eradication

Our August Ribfest weekend is one of three major fund raising activities the Club undertakes. In February we hold our Annual Sportsman's Night Dinner & Auction and every Canada Day Weekend we host our Rotary Arts & Crafts Festival as part of the Cobourg Waterfront Festival.
