News Tidbits – The Norgoma will be moved at the expected cost of $50,000 by April 15th. The St. Mary’s River Marine Heritage Centre will be expected to pay, despite their explaining to SSM Council that they do not have the funds to do so. This may force the organization into bankruptcy.

The Norgoma has employed summer students and ran community partnered events during the summer season without financial support from the city over the past several years. The Norgoma has been an attraction for 37 years.

The proposed site is by Algoma Steel, and is not accessible to the public.
