A live theatre performance and seven-day-a-week service are the highlights of this year’s Bruce Power Summer Bus Tour Program, which kicked off July 1.

On Wednesdays and Fridays at noon, as well as on selected weekends, the Visitors’ Centre auditorium will be transformed into a theatre for a 20-minute play titled ‘The Quest for the Perfect Science Fair Project,’ which was written by Development Student Cassie Davidson, who also stars in the show with fellow student Robert Colquhoun.

Performances got underway in July with upcoming performances on July 12, 14, 15, 16, 19, 21, 26 and 28, as well as August 2, 4, 9, 11, 16, 18, 19, 20, 23, 25 and 30. You do not have to take a bus tour to attend, though Bruce Power does encourage pre-registration for a tour at brucepower.com/bustours.

Bruce Power has also expanded the hours of its Visitors’ Centre to include Sundays, operating seven days a week from 9 am to 4 pm. Tours leave the Visitors’ Centre, located west of Highway 21 on Bruce Road 20, at 1 and 2 pm. Pre-registration is required.

“We are very excited about opening Sundays and adding more tours and our live theatre performance to the Summer Program at the Visitors’ Centre,” said Chris Mercanti, Section Manager, Community and Indigenous Relations. “Our Development Students have written a fun and educational show about nuclear power, and it complements the interactive displays throughout the Visitors’ Centre and the Bus Tour Program.”

The Bruce Power Visitors’ Centre is open seven days a week in July and August with the exception of statutory holiday August 7. Pre-register for a bus tour at brucepower.com/bustours or call 519-361-7777. A valid ID must be presented prior to your tour and an adult must be present to vouch for the identity of children under 18.
