Just a quick note to say thank you to everyone for another great season and a fabulous weekend to finish up. The rainy weather we are getting today held off for the kids to go back to school, leaving us with memories of a beautiful labour day weekend.
Our fall hours are 8am-5pm every day. Give sally a call or email to make arrangements to put the toys back to bed for another winter.
Labour Day Weekend
Here’s the latest water level update from the community
The short term relief in the drawdown of our lake water levels is over.
As a result of lack of precipitation, as well as water demands for the Trent Canal System and minimum flows at Peterborough and further south, the Trent Severn Waterway (TSW) has removed several logs from the Mississagua Dam. The latest forecast from TSW predicts our lakes will drop more than 15 inches between Aug 27 and September 10. That will result in very low levels for early September comparable to those in 2007 which were the lowest in the last 25 years.
The latest water level forecast is available on the website of the Coalition for Equitable Water Flow (CEWF) at www.cewf.ca
Wow somehow a month has slipped by since our last update….time flies when you’re having fun. The fireworks were awesome on the long weekend! There were hundreds of boats out and a huge thanks goes out to Rick Asling for organizing everything again this summer. It has been a great summer – sunny and hot for everyone to enjoy the water and their toys, but it has been nice to see some rain over the past week. The fire ban has been lifted for our area.
Watch for end of season sales on water toys in the next couple of weeks. And as painful as it is to start talking about (it feels like we just got everything out of storage), book early with Sally and the girls as storage spots are already filling quickly. To make it even better, there won’t be any rate increases this year!
On a special note, we have dvds for sale here in the store of an aerial flight around the lakes. We have lots of copies and can make more so stop by to pick one up.
Have a great rest of the week!
