What does being Canadian mean to you?

For over 47 years the Bath Canada Day Button has been a symbol of our celebrations. So many great designs but there can only be one winning button design each year. If you are at elementary school - it could be yours! The theme for this year asks the question, "What does being Canadian mean to you"? Your design will be your answer to that question.

Who can enter?

The Button Design contest is open to all children living in Loyalist Township of elementary school age.

When is the deadline?

Entries are closed for 2023.

Entries must be dropped off no later than Friday, April 21 at 3:00 p.m. The designs will be given to the Bath Artisans for judging on April 24. The winners will be notified by April 28.
