Clinton business introduces new tourism attraction

Willy’s Burger Bar is adding to Clinton’s tourism appeal with their newest addition Bruce, a 10ft tall, 8ft long moose.

Owner, Gillian Potter, hopes his unveiling helps amp up business locally after many local shops were affected by COVID-19.

“Now that things are starting to open back up, it’ll be another reason for people to come out and come this way and hopefully help not only our town but help southwestern Ontario out.”

Potter adds she’d like to see visitors share photos of Bruce the Moose on social media.

You can do so with the hashtag #WillysBruceTheMoose.
