Let us help you promote your public boating events or activities

Boating Events

May 23, 2024

From a family boating celebration at your lake or marina, to a major Destination Rendezvous, Canadian Boating is pleased to help you promote your publicly open events to boaters – and there is no charge!

All we ask is that you send us information about your event or activity and at least one nice photograph to appear in the story.

We especially want to support boating activities featuring family, safe boating and educational aspects. Events like Waterski and Wake Board Shows, junior fishing tournaments and learn-to-fish are excellent examples. Your Canada Day event could be another example. Here is a basic list of the information we would need for promoting your event:

  • Name of Event
  • Date of Event and times
  • Location
  • Organization managing the Event
  • Purpose of the Event, (eg: Learn to Fish, Learn to Ski or Surf, Lake Plastic Clean-up, etc.)
  • Website or Event information source
  • Admission or Participation fees (if any)
  • Telephone contact if available
  • Email contact

Your boating events or activities that are open to the public can be promoted in the Canadian Boating Onboard Digest with 20,000+ National Circulation, or in Boating Industry Canada News Week Digest to the marine trade with National Circulation of 5,500+ industry readers.

Send your information to Allegra Smith-Herriott at asmithherriott@kerrwil.com

By Dave Rozycki

Over the past seven decades, Ontario’s marina industry has developed alongside some of Canada’s largest freshwater lakes. Boaters have been able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and create lasting memories on the water, with certain marinas dating back to the 1960s. As we reflect on this rich history, we can begin to see trends in how our footprint may have had an effect on the environment, in not-so-positive ways. However, by embracing innovative solutions and adopting sustainable practices, both marinas and boaters hold the key to preserving and enhancing the quality of our lakes and marine life for generations to come.
