Mark Kowalchuk, who along with Winnipeggers Al Andrusco and Don Milne comprise the “Heroes of Folk,” entertained an audience Sunday afternoon under the big tent at the Sorting Gap Marina, performing many old-time favourites during two sets. The free concert, along with the “Kid Pro” fishing tourney and MuchMusic Video Teen Dance Party, helped kick off the first day of the 12th-annual Fort Frances Canadian Bass Championship. —Duane Hicks photo
