Banding Together The Past, Present And Future

“Our executive team at The Jack Miner Migratory Bird Sanctuary, along with our Board of Directors, feel that the future of the Jack Miner Migratory Bird Sanctuary has never looked brighter,” said Tom Coke, Executive Director of Jack Miner Migratory Bird Foundation. “We have several exciting ideas planned that we believe will help generate a new level of excitement which will help to support our future.”

“And this is exciting. The Jack Miner Sanctuary is proud to be hosting this special one day event! Details on the event particulars will be announced in the weeks ahead, but just know that the event will continue, and everyone at the Sanctuary is excited at the prospect of it and the positive impact it can have,” Coke said.

Banding Together. A truly symbiotic partnership has been forged between The Jack Miner Migratory Bird Sanctuary and The Kingsville Highland Games. Somewhat prophetic, given the history of the logo designed for the Highland Games recognizing the importance of the Canada Goose to Kingsville.

The Highland Games will be held on Ty Cobb Field at The Jack Miner Migratory Bird Sanctuary, 332 Road 3 West, Kingsville on Saturday, June 24, 2023.

The Committee is delighted to have found a location where every exciting element of the Kingsville Highland Games can be enjoyed on one level, a truly immersive experience for all. The Kilted 5km Run/Walk will also take place on the grounds of The Jack Miner Migratory Bird Sanctuary involving a mix of on and off-trail paths in Kennedy Woods.

In 2019, more than 6,500 people gathered on the northern shores of Lake Erie for the return of the Highland Games to Kingsville to enjoy a fun-filled day of Scottish and Celtic experiences. After a hiatus of two years, the Highland Games returned in 2022.

Currently the Committee is working tirelessly to stage another great event at this new location in 2023.

On June 24th, Flock to Jack Miner’s and take a gander!
