AlgomaTrad 2013 is about to begin! We are bursting at the seams, bigger than ever, and only a few days to go! To all of you who are not registrants or volunteers for camp here is some info and a couple of requests:

  •  ·     LIVE AUCTION – Thurs. Aug. 15th – 7pm.   Silent Auction ongoing from Thurs. to Friday night.

auction-guyTo all AlgomaTrad Lovers and Supporters: each year at the Camp we host fundraiser Live and Silent Auctions. All proceeds go towards the Nicholas Missere Bursary Fund, which helps families and individuals attend the camp, helps defray some of the costs of the Camp (staff travel particularly) and helps us provide traditional music, dance, and art workshops throughout the year. This event is always a lot of fun – entertaining, funny, and fantastic and is open to the public!  If you have any auction items (e.g., services, gift certificates, artwork, antiques, etc) to donate to AlgomaTrad (we would be very appreciative!) to help keep us going, please contact us – email us, phone us, or drop your item at any of the following locations

  1. Ableson Family – 1633 20th Side Rd, St. Joseph Island, just south of Kent’s Corners. 246-3052
