Spring 2025
Ice Out Contest
It’s a question as old as the lake herself. Every spring Nipissing visitors muse over the age-old question, “When do you think the ice will go out?”. Lake Nipissing is a BIG LAKE, with ice as thick as 30 inches in some winters, but we northerners never tire of watching for any indicative sign of spring.
To celebrate this time honored tradition, and to make things a little more interesting while we wait, Ferris the Place to Be is running an “ICE OUT” contest.
Summer 2025
Ferris Family Fun Day
We are going to pass on having a Ferris Fun Day this year in support of the 100th anniversary of the city of North Bay. With so many events planned in and around North Bay we ask you to support those events.
In Ferris, come and join us on May 3rd for Laporte’s Nursery and Garden Center for their 75th anniversary!
Fall 2025
“Movie under the Stars” event brings with it a great sense of community, and is the perfect family outing to end the hot days of summer – bonus you won’t have to slather the kids in sunscreen or nag them about keeping their hats on, or worry about the bugs!
The event is free and will start at dusk on the Omechile Field. Bring a chair, a blanket or whatever and enjoy yourself.
Refreshments will be on sale at the event.
