A surge of federal funding is helping to light Clan Gregor Square in Bayfield this winter.
The Municipality of Bluewater received $31 thousand in funding from the Regional Tourism Organization 4 (RTO4) to create a “unique winter experience in the heart of Bayfield.”
This is part of the Government of Canada’s Tourism Relief Fund.
Over 22,000 lights have been draped over roughly 30 trees to create a display that can be accessed on foot or viewed while driving around Clan Gregor Square.
The display is turned on daily between 6 p.m. and 12:30 a.m. and will remain lit well into the new year to help residents and visitors chase the winter blahs away through the the end of February.
