Heading for owen Sound

07/02/2007 — Festival News

  

Well The (Great Tug Race) Sault Ste Marie is over for another year.  Thanks to Julie Gardiner and crew, it was successful and a good time was had by all. Do to other committments this year I was not able to attend. Next year our Parry Sound group is planning to attend with as many tugs as we can muster.

Now for the next event. The Owen Sound Tugfest July 28th & 29th. This event is a one time event to commemorate 150 years of Owen Sound boat building and will feature Russell tugs. Steve Briggs has done a great job of putting this together and has also done a lot of research into Steel Craft Russell Bro tugs. This will also be a homecoming event.

Check out Steve Brigg's site (Steel Craft Russell Bros Tugs on our Links). All the weekend events our on this site.

These pictures are of some of the tugs that will be at this event from the Parry Sound Area.
