Huron County safely enjoyed the first long weekend of the season

May 25, 2020

[Huron County, Ontario] – Huron County safely enjoyed the first long weekend of the season with the continued cooperation of Huron County’s valued seasonal residents and cottage owners.

With the arrival of longer days, warmer weather and outdoor recreation areas slowly opening up, the County of Huron recognizes that seasonal residents and cottagers may begin to open their Huron County properties for the season. The County is grateful to our seasonal residents for practicing safe travel recommendations and following public health guidelines when moving between communities. It is recognized that these residents are showing the same level of commitment to their seasonal community that they show their home communities in preventing the spread of COVID-19.

“We recognize that this summer is going to look different, but with precaution and respect for the guidelines set out by Huron Perth Public Health, we will hopefully be able to take advantage of our time along Lake Huron when things reopen,” says Warden Jim Ginn. “I would like to extend my sincere gratitude on behalf of the County to both our cottagers and our residents.”

Huron County continues to urge all residents to practice physical distancing and proper hygiene protocols outlined by the Provincial Medical Officer of Health.
