LPRA Membership Renewals 2025

A third renewal reminder notice was recently sent to those whose membership dues remain outstanding. Complete renewal instructions are on the notice. Just a reminder, your name will be entered into a draw for a one-year free renewal if payment is received by the May 15 draw deadline. Thanks to everyone that have already submitted!

Follow Up - Beach Avenue

Ever done something on the spur of the moment, only to regret it later? This sums up the situation of an alleged trespasser on Beach Avenue. The person in question has reached out to the LPRA. We are pleased to report it’s a total misunderstanding. The person and the cottage owner have made contact and all is good. The LPRA regrets any angst this may have caused either party.

New Speed Limits for Long Point

 As we gear up for Summer, a reminder to all, Norfolk County has passed a by-law whereby, all roads in Long Point are 40 km unless otherwise posted.  

LPRA AGM - Saturday, June 14, Port Rowan Community Centre (PRCC)

There will be LPRA Board vacancies this year due to some Directors not seeking re-election. If you would like to have your name considered, please contact us at info@longpointrpa.com  One property owner has expressed interest and we thank them for contacting us!   While these Board positions are volunteer-based, with no monetary compensation, they can be very interesting and fulfilling. 

Anyone who has a financial accounting background/experience would also be a welcome addition as we would like to have an easy transfer of Treasurer duties for FY 2026.
