Put the Hamlet Hoe Down in Fort Assiniboine in your calendar and be sure to catch the best fireworks display you'll see this summer. It's ok - we're used to the skepticism. How are we so sure it's the best? A major supplier just happens to be from the area, and graces our skies with a breathtaking show that includes the company's surplus fireworks and prototypes for next year. Bring a camp chair and sit right in the water as the sky explodes with colour above the Athabasca river. Not bad for a hamlet of 200 people!
