Dignitaries expected to attend Monday’s launch include Kincardine Mayor Anne Eadie, Saugeen Shores Mayor Mike Smith, Saugeen First Nation Chief Vern Roote, South Bruce Grey Health Centre CEO Paul Rosebush, Bruce Power’s Acting President Kevin Kelly and Bruce Power’s Executive Vice President of Human Resources Cathy Sprague.
