H. Ormond, a retired engineer, resident In the lake village, with the purpose of illustrating the work done so far by the Pioneer Park Association. This volunteer group recently undertook the task of reclaiming the beach. By draining the area, just at the top of the cliff (shown on the model) the water was intercepted and was led to the lake through the pipe at far right. The cliff is no longer softening. As. soon as a stable slope has been made, danger , of erosion will dis- appear. Piling driven into the lakefront in 1952 is gradually bringing about the deposit of more sand on the beach widening it considerably. The north side of the property is closest to the front of this picture. Movies are shown at the lakeside every Monday and Wednesday even- ing with a voluntary collection made to help finance the work of the park.
