Where:  Beausoleil Island/Honey Harbour
When:  July 13, 2019 11am to 4pm
“Only 100 hands available – and we sold out last year!”

Boaters and cottagers board their dinghies (jet boats, small tenders or PWCs work well too) for an afternoon trip around the Honey Harbour area of Georgian Bay – gathering cards from five different stops. Prizes are awarded for the top poker hands plus other surprises.

The first one was held at Wana Keta on Beausoleil Island in July 2016.
