Steve Says...

• The new roundabout is proving that even traffic can learn to go with the flow.

• If you can't find a parking spot at Beach Area 1, congratulations... you found summer.

• The Marriott Resort hasn't broken ground yet, but it's already checking into conversations all over town.

• Main Beach is under construction, but the sunsets are still arriving right on schedule.

• The new high school is going up so fast, students may have homework before they have lockers.

• Costco isn't even open yet, and half the town has already decided where they're putting the hot dog stand in their weekly routine.

• Wasaga Beach has two seasons: Winter... and "Where did all these people come from?”

• The world's longest freshwater beach also has the world's shortest walk from "I'll just dip my feet in" to "I'm staying all day.”

• The BeachLife Festival proved that the best soundtrack sounds even better with sand between your toes.

• Chicago Transit is coming to town. Somewhere, a trombone is already warming up..

• Visitors come for a weekend. Locals stay because they know September is the best month.

• Construction crews are working so hard, they're starting to recognize beachgoers by first name.

• Main Beach keeps getting better looking... and Mother Nature still insists on stealing the show every evening.

• There's no such thing as "just a quick walk on the beach.”

• The busiest workout in Wasaga? Carrying enough beach gear for the whole family in one trip.

• If you haven't dropped an ice cream this summer, there's still time.

• Wasaga Beach is one of the few places where flip-flops qualify as formal summer footwear.

• The seagulls continue their long-standing policy of inspecting unattended French fries.

• Costco will eventually sell everything... except a parking spot on a sunny Saturday.

• The best beach memories usually begin with someone saying, "This wasn't part of the plan.”

• Every August reminds us why people have been falling in love with Wasaga Beach for generations.

• If summer had an official address, it would probably be Wasaga Beach.

• I came to watch the sunset. Three hours later, I was still people-watching.
