Preparations are continuing for the return of Chapleau's drag races this summer.
Mayor Ryan Bignucolo says progress is being made on the deal for the event.
While the drag race is set to be held July 14th through 16th, Bignucolo says "there's great contractors in town...willing to give a hand to make this happen" in time.
In addition to an update on the drag race, Council also heard this week about ongoing preparations for Canada Day celebrations, with Mayor Bignucolo saying it looks to be "a great success, like the winter carnival".
