Bruce County Tourism Staff
Explore the Bruce is the brand image created by the Bruce County Tourism team to promote and identify the numerous seasonal indoor and outdoor activities across Bruce County. Used as a mobile information and activity center, the Explore the Bruce Adventure Toyota truck is a common addition to local events, and often travels outside of the county to promote and publicize the ‘Bruce’.

Adventure Bruce is the new Bruce County Tourism Mascot! We're getting to know this new team member. He's very knowledgable with all the great things to see and do across Bruce County towns. The adventures began this summer with Bruce visiting many of the Adventure Passport 2011 stops meeting animals and people. If you see him out and about in your town feel free to take photos with him as he's really coming out of his shell these days and loves hugs. :)
