2025 Township of Centre Wellington Watercart Application

Thanks to a successful collaboration between festival groups—including the Fergus Scottish Festival, Riverfest Elora, Fergus Fall Fair, and the Elora Festival—and the Township of Centre Wellington, a refurbished water cart was jointly purchased to provide free municipal water for festivals and events in our community.

The Watercart is operated and maintained by the Township of Centre Wellington and is available for use from the beginning of May through the end of September.

To request the Watercart, please complete and submit this application at least four (4) weeks prior to your event. Applications will be reviewed and scheduled on a "first come, first served" basis at the sole discretion of the Township. Please note: the Watercart must be connected to a Township of Centre Wellington Municipal Water source for use.

The following are the Conditions of Service for the Watercart at your special event. Please select "YES" to confirm your understanding of each condition.

This is a community event, open to the public.
 
The event occurs between May 1 and September 30, 2024.
 
The watercart will be situated in a prominent location with a direct connection to a municipal water system at the discretion and approval of the Township of Centre Wellington staff.
 
Dedicated and continuous support to monitor and maintain the watercart will be provided by event organizers for the duration of the event. Support monitors will require appropriate training as specified by Township of Centre Wellington staff.
 
In advance of and during the event, organizers will actively promote the watercart and encourage use of reusable bottles through and in all promotional content and media.
 
Water provided through the watercart is for drinking purposes only. Vendors/food providers on site are responsible for providing their own water source onsite for their specific needs.
 
Event organizers will provide their own directional signage for the watercart and will not affix signs directly to the watercart
