Only one week away from the big Canada Day 150 weekend! It is certainly going to be a very memorable event across Canada. There are a lot of activities planned in the surrounding towns so be sure to check them out. One cottager up here is celebrating Canada Day with some festive lighting. Wouldn’t it be cool to see as many cottages as possible lit up in red and white like this around the lakes? Canadian Tire has red and white string lights on sale, or you can get red bulbs for your spotlights, just for a couple of ideas.  If you decorate your cottage to celebrate Canada this weekend, we want to see it!  Send pictures to richard@littlegullmarina.ca and we will share them to show how we celebrate Canada up here in cottage country.

We are still very busy getting the boats in and as usual Mother Nature keeps us guessing. Also don’t forget the swimming lesson registrations so the kids are out and meeting new friends and learning how to be fish for the summer.

Check back over the next little while as we post updates for events throughout the summer

Have a great week! Stay dry.

As you can see, our cubs from the fall are back and all seemed to have done well over the winter. Momma is with them as well.  A reminder to ensure that all appetizing treats, garbage etc. are kept out of reach of these “little” guys.
It has been great to see everyone up enjoying the first real taste of summer that has lasted more than 1 consecutive day:)  Hopefully everyone enjoyed the heat wave this week.  As we start to think about the summer weather, remember to get in touch with Lori regarding swimming lessons starting in a few weeks to ensure your young ones get out and meet new friends while they enjoy the lake.
We are still very busy launching all of the boats and making sure they are ready for a great 2017 season on the water. The crew here have been doing a fabulous job working tirelessly to get the toys in tip-top shape for the summer through all of the challenging weather.
Finally, a big thank you to all those who donated to the Peterborough Dragon Boat Festival this past weekend.  We really appreciate your support in raising money for the Peterborough Regional
Hospital Centre’s Breast Assessment Centre for new Mammography machines.

Have a great week and Happy Father’s Day!

Welcome to Janu….I mean June! As you can see by the clothing on the girls the temps have been quite cool for being out on the water delivering the boats back to their homes. We are continuing to see unseasonably low temperatures considering it is June.We are still very busy in between rain/thunder showers getting all the boats out. On Wednesday, the girls were leaving here with the sun shining, and getting soaked on their way back to the marina. At least today and tomorrow’s forecast look nice before a few more days of rain start Sunday again.

After long consideration, we have decided that we will be suspending our propane delivery service. The costs associated for compliance with regulations have become prohibitive to make this service continue to be viable. We will still be filling cylinders onsite.

Hope everyone is enjoying the spring and looking forward to much better weather as summer quickly approaches.
