The event kicked off with a pancake breakfast, followed by the IronKids Triathlon that is an Ironman Muskoka 70.3 event, a parade downtown and then the Bathtub Derby. The event is a big deal for the town, usually attracting thousands of people for the day. Although the rain might have kept some at home, those who attended were enthusiastic and lively. There were a lot of smiling faces hiding under umbrellas and the town docks were lined with hundreds of people who came out to witness the action.<\/p>\n<p>Doppler&#8217;s Laura MacLean was there to capture some of the fun. And a big HORRAY for the Rotary Club of Huntsville and volunteers for putting on another successful event.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin:
