First-Ever Boat Show in Carleton Place
There will be a first-ever ‘Valley Fishing Boat Show’ this coming Saturday and Sunday, February 6 and 7. It will be held at the new Beckwith Recreational Complex situated south of Carleton Place at the rural Beckwith Township.
This event will provide Ottawa residents the chance to take their minds off the freezing winter snow by making them aspire for the warm and lazy rivers and lakes of Eastern Ontario.
The show is not only intended for those who use boats to fish in waterways, according to the chief organizer; those who are planning to buy new-generation small crafts are also encouraged to attend.
Valley Outdoors Promotions representative, Dave Arbour, stresses that the venture is not a fishing show, but a fishing boat show. Arbour is also the organizer and operator of Carp’s ‘Valley Fishing and Outdoor show’ and ‘Valley Gun and Hunting Show’ which occur every spring and fall respectively.
Additionally, Arbour said that the show will feature smaller crafts instead of 24-foot boats. Arbour is confident that the planned location and timing for the event is perfect. He hopes that the event would become a success since he has put a lot of effort into it, and if it would succeed, he plans to expand the venture in the future.
Attendants will be charged $5 per person. However, children can come free of charge if accompanied by an adult.
