David & Sheree -

 

Merry Christmas to you.  I enjoy your email newsletters and your "memories" in the most recent newsletter jogged a memory for me.  About 30 years ago, give or take, on a fall day, Jerry Hayenga and I walked the grounds of an abandoned resort (Duck Bay) looking for grouse.  I remember at the time thinking, what a beautiful place and such a waste to see it deteriorating.

 

Well, along came the Swistun family and I have watched a truly magnificent transformation!  The work that you, (David & Sheree) and Henry and others put into Duck Bay is remarkable.  

 

It is top shelf in all regards.....  the accommodations, excellent food, great service and genuine hospitality are exceeded only by the friendly smiles at the dock and in the dining room.  I only wish I still had my business, so I could again bring groups to Duck Bay for that "experience of a lifetime"!

 

All good wishes for a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year!  See you in the spring.
