MacGregor Point Atlas-3 Square Bash

May 29 @ 8:00 am - June 2 @ 5:00 pm

MacGregor Point Provincial Park: Monday May 29 –  Friday June 2, 2023. This event ties in with the Huron Fringe Birding Festival which runs on the adjacent weekends. The Huron Fringe is a beautiful area at the southern end of the Bruce Peninsula with among the highest number of breeding species anywhere in the province, from Golden-winged Warblers to Upland Sandpipers to Broad-winged Hawks. If you’re heading to the Festival, why not add a few days onto your trip and help out the Atlas? – or just come for the Square-bash alone. Register for the MacGregor Point Square Bash here.

Square-bashes are enjoyable, multi-day events, bringing together atlassers with all levels of experience from across the province to focus their efforts on key coverage gaps around Provincial Parks. Thanks to Ontario Parks for generously providing free camping for square-bash participants. Last year’s events were a great success and we’re hoping to build on that in 2023.

Please save the dates if you are interested in participating. We will have more news very soon about registering for these events and more. You could come for the entire duration of the event, or just part of that time. Our goal is to provide adequate coverage for as many squares as we can in and around the parks, while having as much fun as possible.

Please do not contact the parks or the Huron Fringe Festival about these square-bash events as we are making the arrangements through the Atlas-3 office.
