If you forgot the sunscreen, the Save Your Skin Foundation has you covered in 20 more communities across Canada.

Their national public sunscreen dispenser program has expanded, bringing the total to more than 100 across Canada, including Seguin Township. You can find them at the Foley Beach and the Rosseau Waterfront.

The national program started in 2022 and provides free, publicly accessible sunscreen in parks, beaches, recreational facilities, festivals, and more. The dispensers are automatic and touchless, and provide free, Health Canada approved SPF 30 sunscreen for anyone who needs it.

Officials say they’re helping Canadians reduce their risk of skin cancer while promoting sun-safe behaviours.
