We're On The Move

It's official Penetanguishene will be hosting the 2008 Tugfest.  Lots of changes in the works for this year. We now have a board of governors, as well as committee chairs . Our new format will be to visit a different coummity each year, with Penetanguishene hosting 2008, Owen Sound 2009 & Parry Sound 2010. The new format will be called "TUGFEST GREOGIAN BAY". The host community will be featured on the festival page of this site.   Aug 23rd & 24th are the dates for this years event. These are exciting times for us as, we move ahead.  I'm looking forward to working with the Various committes for the event.

The Picture is of the Tug "Dawn Light" back in the 80's. Captain Garnett Cheney, one of the founding members of the then Parry Sound/ Penetanguishene Tug Races, was the owner of the Dawn Light at that time. She was moored in Pentanghuisene harbour for many years & was purchased by Ray Davis after the passing of Capt. Cheney.  Capt Davis has been operating out of Tobermory doing dive charters and adventure tours with this gracious old lady of 100 plus years.
