THE OJIBWAY HISTORICAL PRESERVATION SOCIETY
By the late 1990’s, the historic Ojibway Hotel had stood for more than ninety years and through many generations of Pointe au Baril cottagers and Georgian Bay visitors.
In 2001, the Township of the Archipelago passed a By-Law recognizing the Hotel and numerous structures and features of the Ojibway Island as having architectural and historical value under the Ontario Heritage Act. Later that year, the Ojibway Historical Preservation Society (OHPS) was formed as a non-profit corporation and recognized as a charity for Canadian tax purposes. The Historical Society then entered into a 99-year lease with The Ojibway Club for the recognized historical elements of the Hotel and the other designated buildings and island features, and began the long and arduous process of carefully restoring them to their original condition. The Ojibway Historical Preservation Society’s sole purpose is to: Restore, preserve and protect those structures in the Pointe au Baril, Ontario area designated as historically and architecturally significant pursuant to the Ontario Heritage Act
Thanks to the Historical Society, supported by many generous contributions from the Pointe au Baril community, members of the general public continue to come from far and wide to enjoy the beautifully restored Ojibway Island facilities. By remaining committed to restoring and preserving what has been a legacy to this generation, we are thus maintaining the tradition of investing in a remarkable architectural and cultural heritage now for the benefit of the many future generations to follow.
The principals of Cottage Country Dip are passionate supporters of The Ojibway Historical Preservation Society and encourage all those who share our vision to visit the society’s website and consider a donation today.
