Welcome to Little Gull Marina!

August! How is summer going by so quickly?  It sure has been a busy one here, and we are grateful for the beautiful weather we’ve had so far.  It’s been great one so far! There are lots of exciting things happening in the next couple of weeks. Check out our events page and see below so you don’t miss out!

As always with the arrival of the long weekend comes the excitement of the annual Customer Appreciation Fireworks display.  On Saturday evening, join us on Mississagua lake to celebrate a great summer so far and help us to say thank you for your continued loyalty in supporting local businesses.

We are also SO excited to let you know that parasailing, flyboarding and the jetavator are returning to Little Gull on August 17th! This has always been a fantastic day on the water.  It is pretty incredible to see the lake from a birds eye view, and the jetavator and flyboard are a blast to try out.  Call or visit us for more information or to reserve your spot!

Rick Asling is running his annual paddle event on August 10th. Stay tuned for more information, but the plan is to paddle up the Mississagua River.

Finally, we would like to extend a warm Little Gull welcome to the newest member of our team, Jordan.  She has joined the crew on the gas docks and is eager to meet everyone over the coming weeks.

Enjoy the weekend, stay safe and we will see you out and about!

What a start to summer! It sure came out of nowhere and is very much like what we saw last year at this time.  The water is warm, the sun is shining and it looks like a great weekend ahead (with some possible thunderstorms to be expected with this heat). Even the chipmunks are enjoying some snacks and custom made lounge chairs at the Cooney Family Cottage (Photo Credit: Ryan Coleman).

Next weekend, the One Big Day Community Carnival is happening at the community centre. Come out on July 20th from 9am-4pm for Kids games and activities, a softball tournament, bake sale (come early for this one!), book sale, flea market, snack bar, balloon  company, face painting (11-1) and more! It is always a lot of fun and a great way to support the community programs and services.

For folks who are up through the week, every Thursday from 7-9 there is progressive euchre at the community centre!
Swimming lessons started last Tuesday and the water is perfect!  It’s not too late to sign up for either of the last 2 sessions. Contact Lori Harper for more information about lessons, first aid/CPR courses and boating courses/exams.

As we learn of new events happening we will keep you posted here!

Happy Summer to everyone and an extra congratulations to all the kids out there who graduated from high school and are on to new and exciting adventures this summer.
Speaking of new and exciting, we would like to welcome back our summer staff and extend a warm welcome to Olivia, Nikola & Gabe who have joined the crew here for the summer. They are excited to meet everyone over the weekend!

Leah had a great weekend a couple of weeks ago at the Peterborough Dragon Boat Festival. She would like to thank everyone for their support and well wishes. As always it was a great event!  And as you might enjoy a glass of wine or two at the cottage over the coming weeks, keep in mind that she is very happy to continue collecting corks for the cause!

Swimming Lessons start back up on Tuesday with Lori Harper. She will be here Sunday from 9:30-10:30 for in-person registration or you can contact her for more info or to register at 705-657-9128 or loriharper1808@gmail.com. She is also running First Aid/CPR courses and the boating license course through the summer.

Starting today, we are back in summer mode, open 8am-8pm 7 days a week. Aside from a little blip this afternoon, it has been a beautiful week and is looking to be a spectacular weekend and week ahead. Enjoy and see you on the weekend!
