A Cessna 172P aircraft operated by Brampton Flight Club, was conducting a local flight from Brampton-Caledon, ON (CNC3) with 1 pilot and 3 passengers on board. During the approach to Runway 08 at CNC3 nearing the end of civil twilight, the pilot noted that the aircraft was too low and elected to perform a go-around. On the second approach, the aircraft struck a tree approximately 460 feet prior to the runway edge. With an estimated height of 25 feet, the tree was struck approximately five feet below the top. After contacting the tree, the aircraft slid along the ground and came to a stop just short of the airport boundary fence. All four occupants were wearing shoulder harnesses and evacuated the aircraft through the left door as the right door could not be opened due to the extent of damage. The pilot and front seat passenger suffered minor injuries and the aircraft sustained substantial damage. A nearby motorist called the police and fire department when the accident occurred. There was no post impact fire and the ELT activated.
