Lake Huron will be a pretty busy lake this week. The lake is the site for the North Channel Race week. Racing starts off on St. Joseph Island in Hilton Beach and boaters make their way across the North Channel toward Little Current. The racing takes five days. At least 15 boats are involved. They’re from area yachting clubs in Blind River, Little Current, Sault Ste. Marie and the North Channel Yacht Club. On the final day Little Current hosts an awards celebration and party on the docks of the West Pavilion.
