- Hi...just thought I'd update you on Canterbury Faire. This year, it
will be held the second weekend of September, in Waterloo Park. The
faire will feature many events for the children as well as the adults,
and we have extended the time that the pub will be open so that we can
have an adult show in the evenings after 6. I will provide more
information as it becomes available, but for questions, you can contact
Wild Basin Nature Preserve in Austin.
