the purpose for which the

was formed which
remains , the same as
when it was adopted in
1947: to promote the
health and enjoyment of
the people of the 'aid
village of Bayfield and
vicinity, through owning,
preserving, improving
and managing a park or
parks open to the public
without charge, and to
ti,indertake other projects
'for 'the welfare of the
community.
The Association has
contributed money to the
Bayfield Agricultural
Society, the Bayfield
Community Centre, the
Arena and the Bayfield
Library. Over the years
there has been much
concern for the erosion of
• the cliff and beach. To
combat this problem a
great deal of money has
been expended on piles
and gabions. The battle is
not yet won.
Presidents of the
Pioneer Park Association
have been Lucy Woods,
Robert G. Hunter, Harold
H. Ormond, John M.
Stewart, Lucy Woods
Diehl, Harold Paull,
