Get Excited for Summer!
From the Tourism Ambassadors at the Coboconk, Norland & Area Chamber of Commerce, we welcome you to our small but fun communities. For visitors and locals alike, there are several things to do, places to see, and fun events to attend over the summer! Whether you come here yearly, it’s your first time, or it’s been a while, here are just some of what you can look forward to while in the area.
Known for our beautiful waters, swimming and fishing are two enjoyable and everyday activities for those in the area looking to do a little bit of either…or both! There are several docks in Coboconk that are great for these activities, and Elliott Falls in Norland is a great place for a day trip. On land, you can enjoy numerous other activities, such as hiking down one of our trails, play tennis at the courts in Legion Park in Coboconk, take a selfie at the Canada’s Fresh Water Summit photo-op to prove you have visited this historical place, or heading down to Norland to play cornhole at the Rec Centre in Ward Park every Wednesday and Friday – registration is at 6:30pm, and bags fly at 7:00pm.
Events are hosted year-round in our communities. This summer, you can look forward to the annual Norland Summer Festival July 8-9 featuring the Ingram Wessell Memorial Horse Pull, horseshoe tournament, some incredible Kids Activities, and more! You can also drive through Norland on a Friday afternoon and pick up some jams, jewelry, and other treats from one of the various vendors at the Norland Farmer’s Market. The 2023 Farmer’s Market season is already in full swing and will be until October.
