The Buckingham Canal Society is celebrating the two hundredth anniversary of the opening of the Buckingham arm of the Grand Union Canal by holding a Boat Rally at Cosgrove, Northamptonshire, on the weekend of the 18th and 19th of August 2001.

Saturday events for the booked-in boats include a treasure hunt and quiz during the day, with a real-ale bar and musical entertainment by Buz Collins in the evening.
