Mrs. Brian Boothman of Elk Point, Alberta is visiting her sister, Mrs. Gilbert Hamilton, • Hiker suggests rail line trail.. TO Dear .Editor, I read articles recently. in the local papers about the railway ties being removed from the old rail line. As a non -driver, I always hoped that rail service might someday be restored to the area but the removal of the ties quashed that idea. As an avid hiker (I am,a member of the Bruce Trail Association) and a , cross= country skier, has there been any interest• locally to retain the line as a. nature .trail that could • be used for hiking, walking, jogging, cycling,. skiing, etc.? I find when I am visiting the area that this is something that I miss very much. Benmiller, is a bit too far when one doesn't drive. If there are trails. in the Lucknow area, I would be interested in knowing where they are located. The Bruce Trail Association has a 'Trail. Users Code' which acknowledges a respect for landowner's property, etc. Parts of the Bruce Trail cross through private property and the Associationconducts negotiations with the landowners for this privilege. I would be • interested in knowing whether there is any support locally for this • idea and if I can assist in any way.1 would be pleased to do so. ' I am interested in the proposal for ..a sports complex in Lucknow:Is the intent that there would be only one (1) squash court? blow would an out -of -towner visiting for the weekend be able to access these facilities? Would a year-roundmembership• be required or would there be court fees on a pay -as -you play basis? Sincerely, • -Elizabeth A. Wall. Horticultural` convention reports.
