The organizing committee for the Renfrew County 2023 Ontario Winter Games is ready for a reboot.
That’s Renfrew Reeve Peter Emon, Chair, Renfrew County 2023 Ontario Winter Games, who says the year’s delay will present some challenges as far as increased costs for transportation and accommodation.
Emon says the original intention of being a coming-out party after COVID turned out to be premature, but he’s certain the quality and magnitude of next year’s function will see it being talked about for years- and maybe even decades.
The Ontario Winter Games Chair says if you need a pre-event pep talk, his committee will come to you.
The Province of Ontario is pitching in with up to $1.4 million to support the Games, which will draw more than 2,900 young athletes, coaches and officials from across Ontario to compete in 22 individual sports.
