A salute to the South Baymouth Community Development Association and the Island
To the Expositor:
The Owen Sound Transportation Company extends many thanks and heartfelt gratitude to the South Baymouth Community Development Association for their ambition and dedication in making the ‘Manitoulin Salutes the Chi-Cheemaun’s 50th Anniversary,’ on August 10, 2024, a huge and memorable success!
It was amazing to see the small community of South Baymouth unite and put on a celebration second to none. Those that attended and participated were proud to be part of such a fun-filled day, thanks to the warmth and welcoming nature of the organization. The enthusiasm was so incredible that even a few rainstorms couldn’t dampen the spirit as people explored the variety of activities and events planned, including the all day barbecue, parade, antique car show, vendors, bake sales, Manitoulin Sea Cadets, presentations (with MPs, MPPs and the deputy mayor), kids’ activities, mule wagon rides, music, firetruck water cannons, celebratory cake, and then capping off the day with a terrific dance party and a fantastic firework display!
Thank you to Captain John Greenway for hosting and MCing the presentations. We will deeply cherish these memories. All of us at Owen Sound Transportation Company salute South Baymouth Community Development Association and Manitoulin Island on a very successful day celebrating our beloved Chi-Cheemaun’s 50th Anniversary!
Yours sincerely,
Kerry Adams, Director of Operations
Owen Sound Transportation Company
