Laird Fair
- Echo Bay
- Festival
Held during the third weekend of August each year, the Laird Fair features events and activities for everyone.
The Township of Macdonald, Meredith & Aberdeen Additional hugs the shores of Lake George, sitting just 30 km east of Sault Ste. Marie. Vast rural vistas define the township’s character. As one of Central Algoma’s largest municipalities, Echo Bay offers its citizens and tourists access to all conveniences within the larger communities. Local amenities include a grocery store, hardware and equipment stores, gas stations and restaurants.
Echo Bay is the proud home of the Loon Dollar Monument on Highway 17B. This must-stop site features picnic tables and is dedicated to Mr. Robert R. Carmichael, the artist who designed Canada’s “Loonie.”
From the shores of Lake George to the winding country roads, Echo Bay offers endless opportunities for exploration in every season.
Walk the 2,200-foot accessible path to view the picturesque shores and wetlands, with rest areas and educational signage. Enjoy swimming, fishing, or return in the winter for well-groomed snowmobile trails, ice skating, and skiing. In the autumn, take Highway 638 from Echo Bay to Bruce Mines. It is the perfect drive to witness the breathtaking fall colours. Explore the area during this annual Sylvan Circle Tour fall event to meet local artisans along the scenic country roads.
