Creating year round tourism.
One of the things that is mentioned over and over in the many years of reports on Wasaga Tourism is the need for a roofed structure,
for inclement weather. Someplace were we can also host a
few functions.

I have researched a lot of them. The one I personal favour is the multi function style, Sprung did for the Shakespeare by the Lake in Toronto. I see it being used for shows, music concerts,weddings,trade shows like spring RV or boat,winter
off road and snow mobile, our classic dinner & a movie, BMX competitions, horse shows, farmers markets and even covered ice skating in the winter off months.
The other nice thing about them is they go up very fast. They can be moved to a new location, they are low cost and last for 50 years. After that they can be rehabbed to last another 50. If we could get one of these up at the main beach or in the Main St area by spring, we will be able to attract a lot of new events and stretch our tourist season by 6 months.
Action gets action, once investors see what we are doing they will be a lot more excited about doing business in Wasaga Beach.
I did have concern about openness and integrity, so before I promoted this idea I reached out to Sprung. Here is my email exchange with them. The last one gives you some numbers (dollars) Total cost completed would be far less than what we just approved for hiring an architect to create plans for our proposed arena and hub.

Hello Karen. I am the person that referred Robert Venton to you for a concert venue in Wasaga.
I am running for council in Wasaga. FB Building a Better Wasaga. I have been advocating for
a superstructure like yours on the beach as a multi function facility for a couple of years.
I am concerned about the scandal in Collingwood, re commissions to the Mayors Brother.
Can you shed any light on this? I want to rest assured as I continue to promote Sprung. Thank You
Robert

Hi Robert,
Thank you very much for the referral, and best of luck with your campaign!
The Sprung Performance Event Facility would be a great addition to Wasaga.
Regarding the Collingwood purchase of the two Sprung Structures, please rest
assured out team had no involvement in any wrongdoing and was long ago
cleared of such by the OPP investigation team.
As a 131 year old company we take matters such as anti-corruption
very seriously. Please let me know if you require any further information.
Kindest regards,
Tom
