Rotary trail to be extended into Grand Bend
GRAND BEND - On May 19 village council ratified
the extension of the• Rotary. Trail north into Grand
Bend.
The extension will begin at the new parkette situated
at the southwest corner of Highway 21 and Pinedale
Road and follow the existing road in Pinedale subdivi-
sion, Edmunds Boulevard. to Lakeview Road. The new
portion of the trail will run adjacent to the highway
from Lakeview, on village property to join the existing
sidewalk at the Pinedale Motel, a distance of 1.3 kin.
Council agreed to fund one half of the cost of the
trail up to $20,000 and to bridge finance the Rotary
Club for the remaining $20,000 over a period of four
years.
The action was taken by council as a safety precau-
tion for the many cyclists, joggers and walkers who
use the existing trail as an access to the village. These
people are presently forced to use Highway 21 or its
shoulder - a dangerous situation.
The existing 7 km. Rotary Nature Trail extends from
the entrance to Pinery Provincial Park along the west

So many of the towns and cities we are familiar with
today had extremely crude and haphazard beginnings.
Many became gracious, tree -lined communities with a
thriving business and social life.
73 'mini -histories' offer a valuable look at a past rich with character and drama. The railroad,
the natives, unfriendly forays from the U.S., and, most of all, the courageous early settlers all
played significant roles in shaping our past and, therefore, our present.
100 black and white vintage photos show us a time and way of life we have forgotten.
Blacksmith shops, milliners, cottage life circa 1900 - all evoke a precious past.
