Keep in Mind – Toys for the North

North Star Air, the RCAF, RCMP, Thunder Bay Police Service and NetNewsLedger invite you to join us in welcoming the Canadian Air Force military aircraft C-130 Hercules to Thunder Bay this Friday December 8th at 11:15am ET as we kick off the 2023 RCMP Toys for the North campaign! Karen Matson from NSA advises the plane could be earlier.
Arrival Location is Shell Aviation, 316 Hector Dougall Way at the Thunder Bay International Airport. You won’t be able to access the tarmac at the Thunder Bay International Airport but this C-130 Hercules is a sight to be seen and shared with the kids.

Weather Trivia: Thunder Bay is known for its proximity to Lake Superior, one of the largest and deepest of the Great Lakes. The lake plays a significant role in moderating the city’s climate. It has a cooling effect in the summer and a warming effect in the winter, making the weather in Thunder Bay more temperate compared to other regions at similar latitudes.
