It‘s camping season in the Northwest.
Provincial parks across the region will open this weekend, and Ontario Parks reminds campers that open liquor will be banned in several parks over the Victoria Day holiday weekend.
Northwest Zone Parks Manager Tim Sullivan says they want to keep the opening weekend a family event.
"Conservation officers, the park warden, the park superintendent or the OPP will, if they catch you with alcohol, fine you," says Sullivan. "That's the law and they will enforce it."
Parks that are under the four-day alcohol ban include Rushing River near Sioux Narrows and Blue Lake near Vermilion Bay.
