2025 Fundraising for Ojibway Dock Renewal

The dock between the fire pump hut and gift shop is at the end of its lifespan, and the OHPS is fundraising this summer to cover its replacement. In keeping with the original wharf design which has welcomed visitors since 1906, the underpinnings and deck boards need to be rebuilt. This central piece will be raised approximately 14 inches to match the elevation of the fixed docks at either end. Further expansion into the bay will provide more space for visitors, camp drop-off and social events.

Two contractors have reviewed the drawings prepared by Watt International and submitted cost estimates to the OHPS board. Fundraising began quietly last year; we have raised $450,000. Thank you to those who have already generously given! We are halfway to our fundraising goal of $750,000.

Your support will ensure that the front dock of the Ojibway, central to our treasured summers in Pointe au Baril, will continue to be the number one gathering place for friends and family!

Any project untaken by the OHPS must be FULLY FUNDED BEFORE PROCEEDING, so the balance needs to be raised this summer before the dock renewal can begin.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
