Set to arrive tomorrow

The life sized replica boat, based on the popular kids books, will arrive at Sugarloaf Marina tomorrow and stay docked there through Sunday.

Theodore then moves onto Port Dalhousie Monday and Tuesday before heading back to its permanent new home in Hamilton.

The tugboat called Halifax harbour home for years, but it was recently sold to McKeil Marine, and has been travelling the Great Lakes to raise awareness of the marine industry and to serve as an ambassador for Swim Drink Fish, a nonprofit organization helping to protect local waters.
