Thank you to everyone who joined Newcomer Day at Camp this year! We had an afternoon of sun and fun at Camp Klahanie on Saturday. A downpour at dinner interrupted us, but didn't dampen our spirits. It was a fantastic day!
Special thanks to the Goderich Lions, Huron Welcome Hub for Newcomers, the Town of Goderich, and the YMCA of Southwestern Ontario for the financial support for this event. We were also grateful to the Huron OPP, Maitland Valley Conservation Authority, Artemis Huron, and Agilec Huron County for joining us and sharing what they do with camp-goers. Lastly, thank you to the elected leaders from the Town of Goderich, Municipality of Central Huron and Township of Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh for joining. It was an afternoon to remember.
