Mystery Donor Saves Shag Harbour UFO Festival

An Unnamed Financial Operator has swooped in to help save the Shag Harbour UFO Festival. Thanks to a nameless donor, the festival marking the 50th anniversary of Canada’s most famous UFO mystery will go on.

On Oct. 4, 1967, Shag Harbour locals reported seeing four orange lights in the sky. The lights dove to the water level, floated and then sank, residents said.

The event became known as Canada’s Roswell ...

     When the annual Shag Harbour UFO Festival is celebrated on Aug. 9 to 10 at the local Incident Museum, it may be the last of its kind.

Located on the lighthouse route, the museum is a hidden jewel that tourists often accidentally stumble upon. Despite the remote location, the Shag Harbour Incident Society has seen over 550 visitors since June 8. Unfortunately, the museum cannot thrive on admission fees alone; it is a non-profit organization that remains privately maintained by the Incident Society, a society that is slowly running low on funds.

The outcome of this weekend’s Shag Harbour UFO Festival will partly determine whether the museum continues to run in 2015. Hopes are high and fingers are crossed as the festival is expected to bring in over 200 visitors.

There are many of events scheduled, including two symposiums featuring local witnesses, authors, and UFO researchers. . . .

Peter Goreham stands in front of the family home in Bear Point where he witnessed an unidentified flying phenomenon as a 13-year-old in 1967.

     BEAR POINT — Here’s a story that never grows old.

The 1967 sighting of what many believe was an unidentified flying object over Nova Scotia’s southern shore, particularly Shag Harbour, has been talked about for years.

And the annual two-day UFO festival is set to begin Saturday at the Shag Harbour Incident Society’s museum on Highway 3, in the heart of the fishing village.

But this weekend will be different. A previously unheard voice will be added to those who have already come forward to tell their stories.

Peter Goreham, a seaweed harvester from nearby Bear Point, was 13 when he witnessed something so unbelievable that he only speaks of it on rare occasions, and usually only with other locals.

It is well known that late in the evening of Oct. 4, 1967, several witnesses claimed they saw something crash in the ocean off Shag Harbour.

No aircraft were reported in the area that night, but a gooey mat of yellow foam, about seven centimetres thick, could be seen floating off Shag Harbour.

The incident was listed as a UFO crash. . . .
