If you Hike, Camp, Cycle, Fish, Hunt, Canoe or Kayak in Southern Ontario

Check out the SOO website; Fellow award winning writer Lloyd Fridenburg has developed a super website. Of course my site here Ripple Outdoors.com caters to hunters, anglers and ATVing in Ontario

Lloyd’s site is constantly expanding relevant content, including six blogs, and six calendars – one dedicated to each of our six outdoor themes – Southern Ontario Outdoors is positioned to become the “go to” site for current, relevant information about outdoor activities in Southern Ontario.  Those living here or planning a visit, will make this site their first stop for local and regional outdoors information. 

The coverage area ranges from the Bay of  Quinte on Lake Ontario, south to Windsor and north to Bancroft, Parry Sound and Tobermory

The site is currently about 90% complete with Information being added and updated daily. We encourage visitors to leave comments on one of our blogs or join our interactive forum where they can exchange views and ideas with others about their favorite outdoors pastime.  This is a site that outdoor enthusiasts will want to bookmark and return to often; it will soon become the first stop for

Southern Ontario outdoors information.

Visitors to a large geographical region like Southern Ontario often look for a destination to match their outdoor interests, so the site was developed from the perspective of activities as opposed to specific destinations…although with the addition of a comprehensive, interactive database (currently under construction) visitors are just a couple of clicks away from specific destination related information. 

We offer competitive advertising rates as well as free links to relevant “not-for-profit” clubs and organizations.

Waterdown Rod & Gun Club’s game dinner

I was invited to a pot luck wild game dinner at the lWaterdown Rod & Gun Club. About 60 members showed up with various home cooked meals of venison, bear, moose, and salmon to name but a few.

Chili, stews, sausages, roasts in all forms satisfied even the hungriest member.

A raffle for frozen turkeys were drawn while munching on homemade deserts ensured everyone was happy.

An outdoor shotgun range with skeet and trap on Wednesday & Sunday mornings will keep you on target with a little practise.

They also will be developing an archery range for 3D and target shoots in 2009.
