Rain may have kept us inside, but it didn’t stop us from coming together to raise the flag and recognize October 24th 2025 as World Polio Day. #EndPolioNow #RotaryClub

We've been working hard, advocating for a new deal with the province, including greater investment in @WasagaBeachPP and Nancy Island. Our message has been clear: When you invest in making Wasaga Beach a more viable, year-round destination—you're investing in a stronger Ontario.

COUNTDOWN TO @ONgov Budget Day! We're reminding everyone that tourism is a massive economic driver for our province. When you invest in making #WasagaBeach a viable, sustainable, multi-season Ontario destination, you're investing in a stronger Ontario.
