2024 Wingham Homecoming plans officially underway

WINGHAM – Recruitment for volunteer committee members is underway to begin planning for the 2024 Wingham Homecoming reunion event officially.

The event is scheduled for June 27 to July 1, 2024, in Wingham.

North Huron council approved a request from organizers to be an official Committee of Council, and appointed Coun. Mitch Wright as the council representative to the 2024 Wingham Homecoming Committee.

Every 10 years, Wingham hosts a homecoming event that celebrates the community of Wingham and raises funds for community betterment projects.
