A Message from Mayor Dale Robinson
I challenge you to make 2017 the most enjoyable recreation activity year in history to celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday.
McDougall’s facilities are in great shape and just need you to show up to enjoy all year round. The McDougall Recreation Centre has natural ice available during the winter months. The pad is available the rest of the year for basketball, pickleball, shuffleboard or just a walk around on a rainy day.
Our many beaches are open to the public to enjoy informally at your leisure. The popular swim instruction programs continue at Nobel and Bell Lake beaches. Meadowcrest Beach is having a dock extension to better facilitate swimming at that new beach location.
The bicycle/walking trail has been rerouted and extended south along Acord Drive to the McDougall boundary for safety and scenic reasons. We are proud to be home to the Georgian Nordic Ski Club and applaud their efforts to expand from ski trails to bike trails. Deer Run Golf and Parry Sound Golf & Country are both open to the public to enjoy a round of golf.
Please enjoy all the activities outlined in this guide.
Respectfully, Dale Robinson Mayor Director of Parks & Recreation Brian Leduc [email protected] 5 Barager Blvd. McDougall, ON. P2A 2W9 (705)342-5252 www.mcdougall.ca

17 Humphrey Museum
3 Museum Road, Seguin (off Hwy 141 & Clear Lake Road) Situated on beautifully landscaped grounds, the Humphrey School House Museum was built out of hand hewn logs in the early 1870s. Originally a Church, the building later became a rural one room School where many received their early education. Closed in 1956, students were relocated to Humphrey School at Sandy Plains. The school sat empty until 1973, when 6 students restored the building to its original state under a provincial grant program. The focus of the Humphrey Museum is to portray the life and times of yesteryear while paying tribute to the pioneer families who settled in this area. Visitors to the Museum will enjoy the focus on community history and can take in the natural environment that makes our region unique. The Museum is a true community effort with most items donated by local families in aid of preserving our history. The Museum is open daily during July & August.
