The Celtic Tenors Christmas Trip,
Thursday, December 11th, 2025.
We have good news: we have secured our own bus to take us directly to the venue. The bad news is that it is still an Activity Coach. The company Hammond has stated that they do not use the lowering function in the winter months due to the risk of freezing.
We also need to guarantee 20 passengers for this trip to proceed, and we are currently at 11 travellers. Cost is $219.00 per person, pick up at Bayshore 8:30 am, Elmvale 8:45 am. Driving directly to Myra’s Bar and Grill inside the Best Western, followed by a matinee of the Celtic Tenors at the Sanderson Centre. The show finishes at approx. 4:30 pm, and your return would be around 7:30 pm.
We need to know if those who were interested and signed up will still be attending. For anyone else who would like to go, please get in touch with us. We will need to know by the general meeting on October 14th, 2025, as we must inform the agency to book our tickets, etc. Otherwise, this trip will be cancelled.

At this time, an “Activity Coach” is being provided for pick up at Bayshore/Elmvale to take you to the Islington Subway station to meet the leading coach. As you can see, the more that wish to go, the lower the price becomes. It would be nice if we could have our own coach and go directly to the venue, and that is something we have asked the tour company for, but at this time, we do not have an answer.
We have requested a regular coach for pickup, as the “Activity Coach” is difficult to access for those with mobility issues.
The price increase from the original brochure is added by the bus line, Hammond.
Your Travel Committee is working hard for you, the members.
Please get in touch with us if you are interested in joining the fun!

Dylan Locke Cruise, July 11th
Crusing with Dylan Locke
Friday, July 11th, 2o25
Our Travel Committee purchased tickets for 30+ Bay Shore members to go on a cruise with local celebrity Dylan Lock aboard the Georgian Legacy! We got to enjoy the beautiful historic sights of Georgian Bay, as he serenaded us with live music from the 1960s to the present day.
Thank you, Kim K, Deb G, and the travel committee, for a beautiful night cruise. The weather couldn’t have been more perfect. The sunset was spectacular. Everyone had a wonderful time.
For those of us who were the first off the Georgian Legacy, we got to see Dylan Locke perform a “flag exercise” as his final act of the night. He has certainly been exercising and looks amazing.
