Lake Superior Provincial Park, ON © Guoqiang Xue THE QUARTER CENTURY MARK When I look back over the past 25 years and think about how many Canadians have been involved in building The Great Trail, I’m humbled and amazed. Not often in a lifetime do you have the opportunity to participate in creating an icon for the future of your country. It has been an honour for me, personally. I was one of the original incorporators in 1992, along with TCT founders, Pierre Camu and Bill Pratt, and have been involved for the past 25 years. Over that time, I have been privileged to work with so many people across the country in the development of this extraordinary project.

  • Hamilton Wentworth Branch 2017 June Newsletter
    Hamilton Wentworth Branch 2017 June Newsletter Letters from Linda’s Lair … Greetings, All! … Happy Sesquicentennial!!! It is an interesting time of year in an RW Branch … the Executive is gearing up for the coming year, as many of the individual Interest Groups and events may be winding down for the summer! It is also a time of decision making for the individual members … renewing your membership for the upcoming year. To assist in your deliberations, a few notes of interest … We listened to your concerns about the Breakfast in the Valley Annual Meeting in May! We have changed the event to become a luncheon, and the new venue will be the Courtyard by Marriott, on Upper James near the Linc. They have a lovely outdoor garden area for us to wander during our ‘meet and greet’ and we hope you enjoy the menu selection! Join us for the new Courtyard Cuisine Event! With thanks to Beatrice Dabolins, we have a new Interest Group starting in October – a Scrabble and Board Games group that will meet the first Thursday afternoon of each month at the Main West Fortinos. We would like to add a few more mini-events to our schedule, and would like your suggestions, please! For example, we would like to have a Christmas sing-a-long at the Mohawk Trail School Museum, at the end of November. (This will warm you up for our Celebration at the Station Event in December at Liuna Station, where our very own Elaine Aikman and her Twenty Place Choir, will regale you with music of the season … be ready to sing!) What else would be of interest to you? Art workshops?
