Toronto International Boat Show!! - Put some Summer in your Winter


Last day to take the family down to Toronto's International Boat show, where you can leave the winter chill outside and all Go Boating!



Want to do something memorable with the kids? Take your mind off the winter chill and "Get set to Discover Boating: From kayaking, to canoeing, paddleboats and inflatables, The Lake welcomes all levels and types of boaters!
Each year, crowds flock to this popular feature, so we encourage you to drop by The Lake as soon as you arrive at the show to sign up for your FREE boat ride on the water! (Sign-up is at The Lake entrance at the south side by Heritage Court.)
For your boating safety, be sure to get your life jacket (supplied by Helly Hansen), then make your way across The Lake's official dock (provided by EZ Dock) and Put Some Summer in Your Winter!
Then visit BOATsmart Canada before heading back out onto the show floor, for information on boating safety and writing your exam to secure your Pleasure Craft Operator"
