Hello
to all
our guests
and friends from
south of
the border!
Thanks to
all who
visited us
this year and
years gone by, it is our guests that make
this such
a special
business. The
Lodge continues
to grow,
this year we
were able
to employ
65 local staff
and many
now have year
round employment with us. Quite a feat in these challenging economic
times! This is a
testament to our commitment to place people before profits.
Obviously, the two go hand in hand and we thank you for providing us
the means to do so. This
winter, we
are planning
to further
revitalize and
improve the
bar. Look forward to relaxing with a pint and some
after-fishing snacks in style. We will also be doing a renovation to
our kitchen in order to modernize it. In addition,
we have
purchased another
building on the main street of Newboro, on
the Kilborn’s
block, and
we will
be renovating that as time permits. As you can see, it is
shaping up to be a busy winter! The Stagecoach Restaurant has been a
successful endeavour, though not without its challenges, and many
visitor s are now experiencing fine dining, Newboro style. Once
again thanks to all our customers; we hope you all enjoyed your
visit with us and
this amazing
area we
live in.

Returning
guests have
been making great
use of
the green
“Outdoors Cards”
and saving time
and money on their fishing licenses.
With the Ministry of
Natural Resources
continuing to
make changes
to the
way licenses are
issued, we
are hoping to
see more
improvements to
come. If
you have bought a fishing
licence in the past three years, you should have received a green
plastic card. If
you have not
yet received
it or
have lost yours,

your Outdoors Card is valid? No problem! Bring it with you
just in case and we’ll let you know at the office when you check in
