As Mayor of the Town of Bay Roberts, it is my privilege to welcome you to our website. I heartily encourage one and all to sit, relax and surf through it. It should give you a good idea of the community we proudly call home. We are a prosperous, vibrant and growing Town that has something to offer everyone. The heart of our community is our people which is displayed by their sense of service and their willingness to volunteer to support their town. Simply put - we’re not “your typical small Town”.

So enjoy what you see on our website, drop us a line or better still, drop by our community to experience what we have to offer and, most importantly, say hello!!!

Mayor Wood, who is the former principal of Ascension Collegiate Senior High School in Bay Roberts, is actively involved in the community and is especially well-know for his work with the Royal Canadian Legion. He leads the Remembrace Day Service.
