Parks Comm.
Grant Approved
For 1964 Season
Announeement was made
last week by the Department of
Lands and Forests that a grant
of $13,600 has been approved
for the park project being car-
ried out along the banks of the
Maitland River in Wingham.
phis amount is 50 per ee:nt of
the local Parks Commission's
estimated expenditures for the
1.90.1. season.
It is hoped this year to erect
washroom facilities at the camp -
arca near the south end of
the park property. Another pro-
ject will be to deepen the swim-
ming area 111 the river near the
N. R.o\ crpass. A eoncrere

Authority to Purchase Site
At Maitland Beauty Spot
The annual meeting of the
Maitland Valley Conservation
Authority approved a recom-
Mendation of the Conservation
Areas Advisory Board to obtain
a 220 -acre tract near the vil-
lage of Benmiller in Colborne
Township for a conservation
area. The property has been un-
der option for the past year
while it has been under investi-
gation.
As a conservation site the
area will, in the course of time
he developed as a year-round,
multiple -use area. This in-
cludes such activities as camp-
ing, picnicking, nature dis-
plays, an archaeological dig,
fishing, skiing and many other
uses.
It was explained at the an-
nual meeting of the Authority
that the area is contained by a
bow of the river, which pro-
vides nearly a mile of river
shoreline and is adjacent to the
beautiful falls near the north-
west comer of the property. The
area slopes in three levels from
a high plateau to the river. The
top level is good agricultural
ground, which will likely be
leased out. Revenue from this
would be sufficient to pay the
municipal taxes.
SITES NEEDED
A report on the area indicat-
es that increasing pressure by
the public for sites such as this,
will mean increasing use as the
scheme is developed. It is one
area on the river large enough
to warrant a development of
the size and interest to charge
adinission, and thus become
self-sustaining financially.
It was pointed out at the
meeting that the area will re-
quire intensive development,
but this will he phased over a
numbcr of years, so that the
annual cost will not become ex
horbitant. It is likely that the
Conservation Advisory Board
will call in experts to lay long-
range development plans before
anything more than the obvious
is done.
The Falls Reserve is, per-
haps, one of the most beautiful
reaches on the Maitland River,
and the acquisition of the pro-
perty by the Authority will
guarantee its availability to the
public.
It has a history that reaches
into antiquity, as there is an
"Indian dig” in one section,
near the river, that contains
artifacts believed to be well
over 3,000 years of age. This
will be preserved, and in time,
rio doubt a display of finds will
be set up on the site.
Early development will re-
quire the opening of an access
road to the area, which is now
not much more than a lant.ThQ
work will he done by Colborne
Township, to be followed by a.
road through Me property itself..
The property will be pur-
chased for $33.00 per acre, with
a provincial grant that will cut
this to 50 per cent. All Author-
ity municipalities will contri-
bute the other 5U per cent.
As a result of motions passed
at the meeting, the minister of
lands and forests will he peti-
tioned for approval to proceed,
and for the necessary grants. It
was noted that immediate ac-
tion had to be taken as the
option expires on March 22nd.
