Bruce Beach Shore Break
Just wanted to send a quick note to remind everyone that we still have lots
of Bruce Beach apparel in stock. Hoodies, zipped sweatshirts, crew neck
sweatshirts, t-shirts. Perfect for the cool nights of the coming fall. Lots
of sizes still available. These items make great Xmas gifts as well!
Bruce Beachers,
Due to a last minute change of schedules, we need volunteers to lead the Junior Baseball for the last two weeks of the summer - starting TOMORROW!!
Even if you can only help out for a couple of days during the week that is OK. We will patch together full weeks with multiple people if required. .
Stormy weather and mechanical problems forced the Toronto Brigantine into Kincardine harbour last summer. But when they arrive Friday, they will be greeted with a welcoming party.

For our August cottagers an information meeting will be held at the Clubhouse on Saturday August 15 from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m.
I have spoken to the Township and they will remove all debris, including trunks from the side on the roadway. The home owners are responsible for getting the trees cut up and piled at the side of the road. The home owners will be responsible to rake and clean up after they are gone.

Way to go Tess. Tess also won gold in a previous meet in England.
“Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” John 15:13
7600 Canadian soldiers who took part in the liberation of the Netherlands & who lie buried in British Commonwealth cemeteries in that country are testament to this Bible passage.
In May of this year, the KSPB was privileged to visit the Netherlands to take part in the 70th anniversary commemorations of the Liberation of that country and the end of the Second World War.
The Dutch people were wonderful hosts who treated us royally. Before discussing the band trip, I would first like to give some background on the Netherlands and the role of our troops in its liberation.
Last Sunday Leslie Ray, long time Bruce Beacher and member of both the Churchgrove and the Kincardine Pipe band spoke eloquently of her trip to the Netherlands in May to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Liberation of the Netherlands. Leslie used the opportunity to clearly explain the close connection that has existed, undimmed with the passage of time, between Canadians and Dutch. She did it with humour, gravitas and emotion.. I am hoping that Leslie will allow us to circulate the text of her speech to the beach through Ross's distribution.

On September 12, 2015 the Kincardine Community Singers and The Kincardine Vivaldi Orchestra ( members of the Georgian Bay Symphony and The Georgian Bay Youth Orchestra ) will present “ An Evening With Antonio Vivaldi “ at Knox Presbyterian Church.
Liz and I will be singing along with others from Bruce Beach and other local choirs.
We were very lucky on Sunday to have survived the storm with no persons injured. Or at least none that I'm aware of. Unfortunately there was damage done to some cars and cottages. I think we all need to be more thoughtful for our own safety in the future. After seeing some trees that appeared to have been twisted off the stump and seeing huge trees that had been tossed around like twigs we need to understand the danger of standing by a window watching a severe storm like this.
