You’re Invited: A Night of Conservation and Local Mystery
Join us on Wednesday, May 13 at 7:00 PM (via Zoom) for an evening that blends community action with the mystery of our South Shore. We will begin with the South Shore Joint Initiative Annual General Meeting, followed by a captivating special presentation from underwater explorer and filmmaker Kenn Feigelman on the legendary Marysburgh Vortex.
While the Bermuda Triangle captures global headlines, Prince Edward County has its own chilling counterpart. For centuries, sailors and lighthouse keepers have whispered about the treacherous currents and inexplicable compass failures within the Marysburgh Vortex. From vanished ships to missing aircraft, much of the history of these rugged shores remains undiscovered beneath the surface. Kenn will take us on a "deep dive" into these enduring stories and the mysterious energy that defines our local waters.

2026 Wildflower Walk
🌼 Join us on Saturday, May 9 at 9 AM for a springtime wander through the enchanting Point Petre Woods, meeting at the corner of County Rd 24 and Army Reserve Road.
This annual walk with wildflower enthusiast John Lowry is your chance to discover the fleeting ephemerals of the season, from waves of Dutchman’s Breeches to patches of Round‑leaved Hepatica and even the shy Carolinian Twinleaf tucked along the path.
Bring your camera to capture the magic—just come prepared for ticks and the occasional patch of Poison Ivy. Make sure to RSVP here and take a peek at some of the gems you might encounter and browse our online wildflower photo gallery.
