Ernie Eddy Memorial Children’s Fishing Derby
The Kid’s Fishing Derby is once again cancelled. Recent and ongoing Covid-19 restrictions have made planning and organising a safe and fun event impossible. The Club’s priority is safety. The Derby will return next year better than ever! Thank you for your understanding.
Family Fun and Snowshoe Day Cancelled
The annual Family Day Snowshoeing and outdoor activities day has been cancelled. Covid-19 restrictions are being removed gradually, but too many features of the Family day fun activities would have to be omitted or altered to meet the remaining restrictions. The Club wishes everyone a fun and safe Family Day Weekend!

Please note that the Covid-19 upsurge has led to cancellation of all Club activities and meetings.
Community Christmas Potluck and Photo Contest, and Wild Game Dinner cancelled
Members and Supporters, the recent surge in Covid-19 cases in Algoma has led the Board to decide to cancel the annual Community Christmas Potluck and Photo Contest scheduled for December 4th. Additionally, The Wild Game Dinner 2022 has been cancelled. There is no doubt that these decisions cause disappointment, but being wise takes priority. Thank you for your continued support. As soon as possible, in-person events will resume.
