This weekend promises a variety of engaging activities across the North Country. Visitors can explore vintage machinery at the St. Lawrence Power and Equipment Museum Spring Exhibition or celebrate family health at the YMCA Healthy Kids Day event. Additionally, fathers are honored with a special breakfast, while wine enthusiasts can enjoy an exclusive pairing party at the Macsherry Library.

The region is bustling with opportunities for everyone, whether it’s indulging in cultural experiences, enjoying family-friendly attractions, or celebrating significant occasions like Father's Day. These events not only bring people together but also highlight the vibrant community spirit of the area.

Classic Machines and Family Fun

This weekend features two standout events that cater to different interests. The St. Lawrence Power and Equipment Museum invites visitors to its spring exhibition, showcasing antique tractors and offering wagon rides. Meanwhile, families can partake in YMCA Healthy Kids Day, filled with fun-filled activities including bounce houses and a photo booth experience.

At the museum, guests will marvel at the collection of historic farming equipment displayed during the exhibition on Saturday and Sunday. For just $5 per person (free for children 12 and under), attendees can immerse themselves in this nostalgic journey through agricultural history. In contrast, Watertown's Thompson Park becomes a hub of energy as kids enjoy interactive inflatables and capture memories in a themed photo booth. Families won’t want to miss the spectacle of a monster truck appearance alongside live music from the 10th Mountain Division Band.

Celebrations and Culinary Delights

As the weekend progresses, there are more reasons to gather with loved ones. Celebrate Father’s Day with a hearty breakfast organized by the Philadelphia American Legion or indulge in sophisticated pairings at a unique wine tasting hosted by the Macsherry Library.

Father’s Day Breakfast offers a delightful way to honor dads, with meals priced at $12 per person ($6 for fathers). This gathering fosters a sense of gratitude and appreciation within the community. On the other hand, those seeking a refined evening can attend the Wine Pairing Party at the Macsherry Library in Alexandria Bay. Limited tickets are available; interested participants should contact the library directly to secure their spot for this intimate culinary adventure from 6:30 pm to 8 pm on Saturday.
