Metamora Indiana Strawberry Days

Metamora, Indiana is an 1838 Historic Canal Town that attract thousands of visitors every year. People enjoy visiting Metamora because there is no other town simular to this amazing old world town.




On June 6th and 7th the town held its annual Strawberry Festival/1838 Days. For 23 years, Metamora has welcomed the summer with their famous Strawberry Day Festival. Visitors enjoyed strawberry shortcake loaded with ice cream and whipped cream.






The weather was perfect - a beautiful sunny weekend that was not too hot. Visitors could hear old time music around town by one of Metamora's favorite musicians "Pappa Joe".
Music was also onboard the Canal Boat and riders enjoyed the songs by John Kogge while they were pulled by horses down the canal.
Of cource you can't have a Strawberry Festival without a pie eating contest.








Metamora's next event will be held on June 20th. This is a special day for Red Hatters.
