Located at the Lighthouse Interpretive Centre, our Shop carries a wide range of exciting and unique products. Members receive 15% discount on selected items at the Shop.
One of our major fund-raisers, this Show has become among the most popular pre-Christmas events in Eastern Ontario. Held at the beginning of November, several thousand shoppers and visitors come to Presqu’ile Provincial Park to experience the magical wonders of our Show. Christmas at Presqu’ile Juried Arts and Crafts Show has earned the reputation of being a unique showcase for the talents of many artists and artisans from southern Ontario.
Each year thousands of people are attracted to Presqu’ile during the March/April migration to view thousands of in-transit waterfowl. Volunteers help visitors identify the many species.
Scheduled to take advantage of this later wave of migrants, this weekend has a number of events designed to help people to identify and appreciate our many migrants.
Bird banders demonstrate the catching and banding of birds and Monarch Butterflies are tagged and released. Walks are organized to look for migrating birds, butterflies and dragonflies.
We run a number of different raffles throughout the year to support our various projects. For the results of 2009 draw, click here. Congratulations for all the winners.
Be sure to visit the Friends’ Barbeque, near the Amphitheatre, on Saturdays throughout the summer.
