Ships and Sails will take to the waters off Nancy Island for a re-enactment of historical Georgian Bay.
After a two-year hiatus, the Wasaga Under Siege event has been rebranded as Ships and Sails with a stronger naval-themed event on August 13 at the Nancy Island Historic site.
Much like the pre-pandemic event, there will be voyageur canoe rides and other naval events such as:
- 1812 sailor re-enactors
- cannon and musket demonstrations
- naval artifacts displays
- build-your-own model ship
- a powder monkey run
- heaving line throw
- grog sampling (non-alcoholic)
- naval games
Parking is available at the municipal parking lot, and organizers request that visitors leave their dogs at home due to the loud noise from canons.
