With the current Corvid-19 situation, we are following the restrictions of the Ontario government, public health and CPS. Therefore, all face-to-face activities have been postponed until further notice. 

Please be safe and keep everyone healthy by physically distancing yourself. Social isolation is difficult, but if everyone does it, we will reduce the spread of this virus. 

The March Crosschop is full of activities. However, due to Covid-19 all face-to-face activities are postponed. 

The NBPSS is celebrating their 60th Anniversary this year. From Friday, May 29 - Sunday, May 31, we will be hosting a variety of activities to commemorate this event. 

Friday evening will be a meet and greet hospitality at Terrace Suites. Saturday we'll have a tour of Giesler Boats, Discovery Museum, and the Farmer's Market in the morning. The afternoon go on the Chief Commanda Cruise and then have a tour of Gateway City Brewery. The evening will be our formal Anniversary dinner and Change of Watch event. 

Sunday we will be hosting the Voyageur District's Annual General Meeting. 

Don't miss this special occasion to meet fellow boaters.
