Our own Sturgeon Lake Sailing Club is hosting the 2009 Mid Ontario Championship Regatta this weekend. This is a big event that attracts a large number of participants. Sturgeon Point comes up big to host a few hundred competitors and families in our small community every year the Regatta is held here. You’ll almost certainly notice a few tents and a whole lot of young sailors out and about our community this weekend.  You’ll certainly notice an unusually large number of sailboats on the lake – its quite a sight. Let’s hope for fair winds and good weather to help make our visitors feel welcome.

The park restoration and renewal project is winding down to a very successful completion, and the park is ready to be enjoyed by all. Come celebrate at the Park Grand Opening Ceremony at noon on July 4th. We will be unveiling a plaque recognizing the tremendous contributions that made the project possible. We’ll also be having a barbeque lunch for everyone to enjoy. See you there!
