We’re not surprised that National Geographic Magazine included
Muskoka in its newly-released book, “100 Places That Can Change Your Child’s
Life,” adding to Muskoka’s earlier National Geographic designations as one of
the 10 Best Summer Trips in 2011 and one of the Best of the World in 2012.
It’s an amazing place for kids to explore, play or just hang out.
Muskoka is also an attractive destination for active seniors
and two upcoming events will showcase their skills as athletes:
- Huntsville welcomes the Ontario 55+ Winter Games from February 26-28. More than 1000 athletes will compete in outdoor and indoor events including Alpine Skiing, Badminton, Curling, Duplicate Bridge, Ice Hockey, Nordic Skiing, Prediction Skating, Table Tennis, Ten Pin Bowling and Volleyball.
- From March 4-10, the Arrowhead Nordic Ski Club hosts the 2013 Canadian Masters National Championship at Arrowhead Provincial Park. Skiers aged 30 to 85+ will compete in races from 5km to 20 km in length. Check both websites for the event schedules and come cheer on the athletes!
Family Day weekend just ended – sunny, blue skies and crisp
winter air made perfect conditions for outdoor activities – and March Break
is just 3 weeks away. If the long-range forecast is to be believed, we’ll still
have plenty of snow and balmy winter temperatures for you to ski, snowshoe, and
play outside. So get out of the city and come visit for one last winter
adventure, why don’t you?
Whether you decide to visit now or when summer makes its
glorious return, we’d love to see you at Colonial Bay! You can see the
availability of our waterfront cottages here.
