What is it? The Muldrew Lakes Cottagers’ Association is excited to announce that we are launching a Photo Contest this year. We are so fortunate to be surrounded by the beauty of our lakes and hope that you will consider entering your photos. Here are the details.

Who can enter? All members of the MLCA can enter photos.

What type of photos are eligible? The subject of all photos must have something to do with Muldrew Lakes. There will be 5 categories – you decide which best fits the photos you submit:

Landscape

Wildlife

Life at the Lake

Winter 2024-25

Kids as photographers (under 16)

As this is our first photo contest, you may enter any of your favourite photos taken within the last three years.

How many photos can one individual enter? Up to three photos per category.

When is the contest? Photo entry will run from July1 to Aug 31, 2025.

How do I submit my photos? Digital photos can be entered by sending them to events@muldrewlakes.ca.

What information will you need to accompany the submitted photos? The category you feel best fits each submitted photo, Your name, and Your MLCA cottage number and local civic address

Judging: Everyone in the community will have an opportunity to vote on all submitted photos. The voting will take place using the Muldrew Lake Facebook platform. Each week between Labour Day and Thanksgiving, photos for one of the five categories will be presented for community voting. There will be more details about this as we get closer to the judging timeframe.

Prizes: A grand prize will be awarded to the top photo in each of the five categories. In addition, the next four photos will also be recognized and celebrated. Winners will be announced on Thanksgiving weekend.

Happy picture taking and have a great Muldrew season!!

Speaking of Wildlife (August 22, 2026)

Sat, 22 Aug 2026 14:00:00 GMT

peaking of Wildlife!

Come participate in this returning family event on August 22, from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m., at Memorial Pines. This is a one-hour interactive presentation, featuring 5-6 native Ontario, wildlife ambassadors and a wildlife interpreter. Featured animals might include porcupine, hawk, bobcat, turtle, skunk, goose, owl, snake, and others, and you will learn about each individual animal, its species, adaptations and habitat.

Many of you will remember the Muskoka Wildlife Centre on Highway 11, south of Gravenhurst, which closed in 2013. That’s when some of the Centre’s long-time staff established Speaking of Wildlife, a successor sanctuary for animals that cannot survive in the wild. Their goal is to deliver up-close encounters with Ontario wildlife and to provide a lasting experience that is enlightening, inspiring and entertaining.

Be sure to save the date!
