Boating Ontario Invites Lake Simcoe Members to ‘Make a Big Splash This Summer’

Boating Ontario Splash Festival

Call now – there may still be time to get involved! ‘Make a big SPLASH this summer’ is the slogan being used for the 3rd annual Splash Floating Water Festival being held on Saturday August 17, 2013 at De La Salle Park, near Jackson’s Point. The one day event includes fun for the whole family offering everything from a sand castle competition, boat show, live music, kid’s activities and much more.

This festival was created to assist with the development of an Ontario Water Centre for Innovation, Research and Learning. The impact of this Centre will be great – socially, economically and environmentally. Lake Simcoe will be home to a world-class living laboratory for research and social innovation in an emerging green economy.

Boating Ontario will be showcasing their Discover Boating – Welcome to the Water and our Clean Marine programs at the event.  At no cost to you, we would like you to join us.
