Not only does Punxsutawney have the world's foremost Groundhog festival, they also have the world's most bizarrely spelled town name.

And, yes, Candlemas is the old Christian celebration of February 2nd, briging light and warmth into the darkness of winter, and two of the churches in Orillia celebrated it with candlelit processions on the street in the early evening darkness. Very nice! In medieval times the entire town would turn out for these processions and everyone would participate. That was before TV, of course...
