Iconic in stature and in essence, Cordozar Calvin Broadus, Jr. has carved out a permanent place in musical history. Undeniably, the rapper, producer, actor, entrepreneur, coach, husband and father affectionately called Snoop Dogg, has performed the most unique balancing act that hip hop has ever witnessed. Never short on vision, drive or ambition, the sharp talking wordsworth has managed to redefine and reinvent himself over the course of his fifteen year career, each time revealing a distinctive cache from the depths within. His rhythmic cadences are classic in nature and his demeanor is as laid back and effortless as the brand extensions he has created for himself.
1000 Islands in Gananoque Ontario offers a variety of year round travel experiences and vacation ideas, fishing, arts, sports, heritage and culture. What could Snoop Dogg do while waiting to go onstage? We have the answers, fo snizzle.
5… Singer Castle on Dark Island is open for Snoop and crew to have a guided tour of the intricate architecture, beautiful furnishings and puzzling secret. Slightly confused, though, when he realizes there’s no microphone or amp to make the crowizzle goizzle bananizzles!
4…Skydive Gananoque will help Snoop with the most exciting and up to date method of making his first jump, the ultimate thrill of a Tandem Freefall Skydive from 10,000 feet. Their staff includes skydivers who are recognized within the sport community for their achievements and skill. Whizzle comizzle upizzle, musizzle comizzle dowizzle.
3… Snoop can then take in the breathtaking view from the 1000 Islands Skydeck to see the 1000 Islands & St. Lawrence River. He’ll dig the panoramic view of the 1000 Islands and St Lawrence River stretched out 130 metres or 400' below. Getting hizzle is gonna be off the hoizzle, fo' shizzle.
2… Putt'n Play Mini Golf is Eastern Ontario's best Miniature Golf location. 18 Holes, 1000 Islands-themed miniature golf course featuring waterfall and lake. After the game, Snoop and his friends can enjoy Nestle Scoops Ice Cream Shop and "The Dog Father" Gourmet Hot Dogs, Seriously. That’s what it’s called and you can look it up. Fo Sizzle.
1…The Gananoque Boat Line is the only boat line that shows you all the Islands. Having his own 3-hour tour can start Snoop’s day in a perfect way - On the water, in the sun, with his favourite Playstation games at hand. He doesn’t even need a wetsuit to discover the Lost Ships of the 1000 Islands, the widescreen monitors will do it all for him. Best of all, he won’t have to use conditioner for his hair fo' frizzle.
And if it rains, we’ll supply Snoop Dogg with his own umbrella, Fo’ Drizzle.
