Municipal News

It is with great disappointment that the Municipality of Killarney announces the cancellation of the 200th Anniversary Festival which was initially planned for 2020 and delayed due to COVID-19.

The decision to cancel this event is made with a heavy heart, however we feel it is in the best interest of the municipality given there were several issues that we could not overcome which would impact the ability to host a successful event. These include but are not limited to low volunteer support, a lack of local accommodations and continued uncertainty related to COVID-19.

Don’t fret though the K200 Committee is working on new plans to commemorate and celebrate this tremendous milestone. More details to come soon.

Anyone is welcome to attend the next K200 Committee meeting and share their ideas. The meeting will be held at the Veteran’s Memorial Hall on Wednesday March 23, 2022 at 5pm. If you can’t make it to the meeting but have an idea to share, contact Gilles Legault glegault@municipalityofkillarney.ca

Killarney:

Gateway to the North Channel

Situated at the entrance to the North Channel amidst sparkling white quartzite peaks and pink granite rock, its harbour sheltered from the turbulent waters of Georgian Bay by George Island, the original Village of Killarney is the oldest community on the north shore.

With a year-round population of less than 500, this treasure of Rainbow Country must surely rank as the biggest little town in Canada, if not the world!
