You might want to double-check your plans for the beach this long weekend.
The municipality has announced Kinap Beach in Porter’s Lake is closed to swimming due to high bacteria levels in the water.
Recent test results indicate the levels exceed Health Canada swimming guidelines.
Various factors can lead to high bacteria levels, including dogs, birds, wildlife, and warm temperatures.
