Double the Fun on Historic Birthday Sunday

Two of Killarney's entrepreneurial giants (well, relative giants in a village of 350 people) celebrated important birthdays this week. Maury at Killarney Mountain Lodge & Outfitters doubled the age of Ross at Herbert Fisheries on Sunday, March 5, 2006.

That's right, Killarney's bigwigs span more than two generations in their quest to provide holiday magic to visitors to Killarney Park and this rugged coastline of northern Georgian Bay. The exact numerals were not revealed, of course, but suffice it to say that there's a lot of combined wisdom between the two of these fellas.

Maury begins his 45th season at Killarney Mountain Lodge in May, manages up to 75 staff with his wife Annabelle and can be seen walking the treadmill before most of his seven working days each week. Ross stickhandles the fishing, retail and famous fish & chips operation of Herbert Fisheries. Ross and his wife Jennie work with multiple family members to run this well known Killarney landmark.
Maury and Ross shared a little birthday cheer together on a the sunny Sunday afternoon of their joint birthday. As the snow thinks about melting and the sun shines, both are looking forward to the 2006 season in Killarney.

Happy Birthday to you both!
