To celebrate all Ontario families, the province is offering free day-use permits at more than 100 Ontario Parks for Father’s Days on Sunday June 20, 2021 including Algonquin Provincial Park and Arrowhead Provincial Park. Please visit www.ontarioparks.com/dayuse for more information and a full list of participating parks.

The Ontario government is also making it possible for families to fish for free all Father’s Day weekend. On June 19 and 20, 2021, Ontario families can enjoy fishing province-wide without having to purchase a licence or carry an Outdoors Card.

If you and your family are fishing during licence-free fishing periods or at other times, it’s important to help keep recreational fisheries healthy for future generations by:

• following conservation licence catch limits
• obeying size limits and sanctuaries
• following all other fishing regulations.

Families that take part in these activities are reminded that under Step 1 of the Roadmap to Reopen, outdoor gatherings are permitted up to 10 people.

Make the most of your visit to Huntsville and Lake of Bays and check out these great accommodations nearby.
