Natural education
Blyth Cubs spent the weekend learning more about nature as they camped at the Wawanosh
Nature Centre and the Wawanosh Park. (Vicky Bremner photo)
The April 22 issue of Maclean's
Magazine extols the virtues of what
it calls. 'beautiful places off the
beaten tourist track.'
In an article called Hidden Gems
in the Hinterland, Huron County is
one of six places mentioned from
across Canada.
Like all visitors, the author of the
article has been beguiled by the
magnificent sunsets and welcoming
beaches of the Huron shore. His
suggestion that the perfect end to a
summer day is to sit on the bluffs
overlooking the lake as the sun goes
down has been followed by many.
Several places are mentioned as
'must sees' for the visitor. Bayfield
with its convenient marina and
1850s* downtown is described as
charming, but "just this side of
twee".
Goderich also gets mentioned for
its Victorian mansions, Court House
Square and Gaol as well as its
museum where the two-headed
calves seem to have captured his
attention.
Benmiller with its beautiful
Maitland River setting, complete
with fly fishermen and comfortable
inn for the more sedentary is
pictured as a haven of peace and
quiet.
The Blyth Festival is mentioned as
both an outdoor and indoor feast for
the mind. The Outdoor DonnMys- in-
June and the indtror , season
following are suggegted as
something not to be missed.
With everything from the theatre
to antiquing and winter sports
Gatehouse clearly believes that more
tourists should take a trip to
"Ontario's West Coast."
