Exciting news for residents of Denare Beach as they look forward to a new beginning , after losing many homes and buildings to the devastating Wolf Fire back in June.

The first new home arrived in the Village yesterday and Councillor Karen Thompson describes the emotions that the residents are feeling. " What we have been able to accomplish here at Denare Beach in a short span of time is nothing short of remarkable. It will be 4 months today that the fire devastated our community here and it has been a long emotional summer. That new home is coming down the highway here, right at the corner of the Alpine where it used to stand. We have people congregating to welcome it into the community and embrace the family that is receiving the home, so it is a good day."

Thompson went on to say that they expect a few more homes to come in later this month with the bulk of the new home expected to arrive next Spring. The Village wants to thank the Denare Beach Fire Department who were able to save the community back in June  and Joey Werbicki and his crew for the cleanup.
