How is it the end of August already?  Time flies when you’re having fun apparently.  This summer has come and gone in the blink of an eye and we have had some incredible weather for being out on and in the water! Even this week the heat a couple of days was very un-august-like. Today is reminding us that it is in fact August and summer is winding down.

We have already started picking up boats to get them ready for bed for the winter, and the lists are starting to form for Fall pick-ups and deliveries.  Be sure to call or email (michelle@littlegullmarina.ca) to hold a storage spot for your water toys, or to make arrangements to have them picked up and we will get that taken care of for you.

Kids and teacher are heading back to school in a few days for another year, and the lakes will surely get quieter over the coming weeks.  We want to wish Lauren all the best as she starts her university endeavours this year at Laurentian in the Nursing program.  We know she will do great and hope lots of fun is had as well 🙂

Finally, we want to send a huge thank you out to Rick Asling and all of the community businesses who made the fireworks this year the best they have ever been!  What a show!  It was great seeing so many boats out enjoying the display on such a beautiful evening.
Thank you also to Craig and his crew from Ski-Mazing Watersports for a fun-filled day of parasailing, jetavating and flyboarding. Despite some cooler weather, it was a blast and we hope they will visit us again next summer.

Have a great weekend!

What amazing, warm weather we have had this summer. As you can see, these ladies are ready to rock for a busy long weekend ahead.
We are very lucky to have Phillip here today from Fontana Pizza Ovens making complimentary pizza for our customers. Stop by, have a slice and check out the brochures for these amazing pizza ovens (delicious pizza ready to eat in 2 minutes or less!)

We are gearing up for parasailing and flyboarding on August 18th.  These are great adventures for kids ages 7 and up, and adults of all ages. Spaces are filling up quickly so call or visit us to reserve a time slot.

The annual Customer Appreciation Fireworks are tonight on the south end of Catchacoma lake. Its looking like a beautiful evening is in the forecast for you to get out and enjoy the display.

Enjoy the sunshine and fireworks, and have an incredible long weekend!

Another week has come and gone – how time flies!  The weather has been incredible, but we are in serious need of some rain.  Please note, the fire ban is still in effect which means absolutely NO BURNING for any reason is permitted.

Today is the big day at the community center – flea market, 3-pitch tournament, bake sale (get there early to partake in this event), book sale, hidden auction, BBQ, activities for kids and more.  Come join us for some community fun!

The fireworks this year will be at the south end of Catchacoma this year on Saturday August 4th.

August 18th is flyboarding and parasailing at the marina, be sure to stop by or call to sign up for your water adventure!

On August 23rd, Lori Harper is running the babysitting course at the community center. Children must have completed grade 5 or be between the ages of 11-14 to take the course. There are also 3 more weeks of swimming lessons available and its not too late to register!  Contact Lori for more information or to register 705-657-9128, loriharper1808@gmail.com.

Finally, if you happen to indulge in the odd glass of wine on the dock and have some corks lying around, Leah is still collecting corks to raise money for their Dragon Boat Team.

Have a great weekend and stay safe!
