Sea King Surveying the Lagoon
On Monday February 1st we had a Canadian Forces Sea King Helicopter Fly within 300 yards of the Aquattro sales centre…above is the picture! I was told by one of the parents at a Scout meeting 2 weeks ago that the Canadian Navy is celebrating its 100th birthday this June! From what he tells me the Naval Centennial will take place from the 11th to the the 13th of June. Some 30 ships from around the world will be at anchor just of the lagoon. On Friday the 11th a fireworks display will take place with the fireworks barge anchored just off the shore to the south of Fort Rodd Hill. (Very close to Aquattro) On Saturday the ships will be lined up for the revue by the Governor General followed by a display by the Snowbirds in the afternoon which will be centered over the lagoon !
