NAME-THE-ISLAND: A FOX LAKE COMPETITION!
The FLA has learned that we can apply to have names officially assigned to the islands in Fox Lake. All three of our long-time islands are Crown Land, not privately owned, and we think it would be nice to have their names officially recognized.
I mention three “long-time” islands because observant boaters will have noticed that a fourth island is being created at the mouth of the Buck River where high river water has cut a new channel into the lake, creating a small island east of the river mouth.
Our three islands in the name-the-island competition include:
● South - The largest of the three islands at the south end of the lake just outside of the bay where Camp Winnebagoe and the mouth of the Fox Tail are located. This island has been known over the years as Snake Island, Camp Island and other names.
● Middle – A bit to the east of the mid-point in the southern half of the lake lies the middle-sized island. This island has been known by such names as Rock Island and Robinson Island, among others.
● North – In the north end of the lake is the smallest of our three islands. It has been known as Loon Island and Little Island and likely other names.
We will be asking members to suggest names at each of our Summer Events and will hold a vote at the end of the summer to determine the names preferred by the majority. The people who suggested the winning names will receive some great Fox Lake merchandise!! So please get your creative thinking in gear! You can also email your suggested island names to Alix Yule
Fox Lake History Project
The Fox Lake Association has embarked upon an exciting project to compile a history of Fox Lake, Ontario.
We invite Fox Lake residents and interested others to join us in collecting stories and visual images that reflect the development of the whole Fox Lake community.
