The Hall of Fame officially opened on November 3rd, 1964 and moved locations many times over the decades as it continued to grow. It moved to its current location adjacent to the Scotiabank Centre in 2006. Make sure you check out Sidney Crosby’s famous dryer and try your skills in the multi-sport simulator! Ahern Avenue is located between Citadel High School and Citadel Hill and was named after John “Gee” Ahern (below). Ahern was the mayor of Halifax from 1946 to 1949 and was also a member of the Nova Scotia Legislature. Ahern felt strongly that there should be recognition for Nova Scotia athletes. He initiated the formation of the Hall of Fame in 1958 and was later inducted in 1982 for his contributions to hockey, baseball and rugby in Nova Scotia. The Halifax Public Gardens opened in the The Wanderers Grounds were established 1840s and became the home of Canada’s in the 1880s and were once a part of the first covered skating rink in 1863, followed Halifax Commons.

  • MCNABS APPROVED TRAIL PLAN 2014.Docx
    McNABS ISLAND TRAIL SYSTEM PLAN McNabs and Lawlor Islands Provincial Park Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources 2014 McNABS ISLAND TRAIL SYSTEM PLAN McNabs and Lawlor Islands Provincial Park In 2013, the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources engaged RMA Tourism Ltd to prepare a trail system plan for McNabs Island, part of McNabs and Lawlor Islands Provincial Park. The plan was intended to guide the development and maintenance of a sustainable system of trails on the island. As part of the contract, the consultant was tasked with evaluating existing trails to determine if they were sustainable, properly located and constructed, and offered the desired experience. Where issues with existing trails were noted, RMA Tourism was asked to recommend solutions including, where appropriate, required upgrades with best‐practice construction techniques, alternative alignments and, if deemed necessary, abandonment. In November 2013, RMA Tourism submitted their final report to the Department of Natural Resources. This report proposed an enhanced system of trails for McNabs Island that would improve access to key features of the island and enhance opportunities for experiencing the unique island geography and heritage features. The report was subsequently reviewed by the Department of Natural Resources and the McNabs and Lawlor Islands Provincial Park Advisory Committee. While in agreement with much of the report, both parties felt that some refinements were necessary before being adopted by the Department. This report therefore represents the revised trail system plan for McNabs Island that has been adopted by the Department of Natural Resources. Significant portions of RMA Tourism’s original report have been incorporated in this final trail system plan.

Each launch site has a description along with land and sea directions, GPS coordinates, nearby services and a photo or two. Blue Rocks, near Lunenburg The services listed include grocery stores, restaurants and accommodations.

    Jim Hoover [email protected] www.vacaydreams.com 855-92-VACAY | 425-279-8058 HALIFAX, NS OVERVIEW Introduction Throughout its history, Halifax, Nova Scotia, has been defined by the Atlantic Ocean. Its blue-gray presence is visible from the city's glass high-rises, centuries-old buildings and surrounding hills. Being built around a huge natural harbor that's second size-wise only to the one in Sydney, Australia, Halifax boasts a vibrant port that has catered to both commercial and naval vessels for more than 260 years. The fact that it was recently awarded a Can$25-billion federal shipbuilding contract further underscores how Halifax's ocean access drives the provincial economy. That same body of water also makes it an ideal tourist destination. The water offers ample recreational opportunities, and most major attractions—from the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic and the Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21 to the Halifax Citadel (which was originally built to defend against sea attacks)—reflect the role it has played in the city's evolution. Whether you are strolling on the photogenic 0.6 mi/1 km harborfront boardwalk, which extends from Casino Nova Scotia to Marginal Road, or hiking in Point Pleasant Park and Sir Sandford Fleming Park, which face each other across the Northwest Arm, water is virtually everywhere—and foodies will marvel at the fresh seafood it yields. Nevertheless, there is more to Halifax than the ocean. As the capital of Nova Scotia and the largest Canadian city east of Quebec, Halifax is a center for government, business and health care, which translates into a relatively affluent population.

    Rucksack Spring, Summer, Fall 2000 Index • SPRING CLEAN-UP OF McNABS ISLAND th. • 10 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING • McNABS ISLAND PADDLE AND CLEAN-UP • PUBLICATIONS • FALL FOLIAGE TOUR ON McNABS • DINNER & SILENT AUCTION AT ROYAL ARTILLERY PARK SPRING CLEAN-UP OF McNABS ISLAND The 18th. Beach Sweep of McNabs and Lawlor Islands on June 4 was a success. Approximately 450 bags of garbage were collected and loaded into the dumpster at Eastern Passage. The perfect weather attracted 240 volunteers. There were problems with some people who went to the island for the FREE RIDE, but there will always be freeloaders. The problem is that the people who work hard cleaning-up the island, do not appreciate seeing others enjoying a picnic. There were problems with the passenger capacity of the Haligonian. After being told that the boat could hold 195, we were informed the morning of the cleanup that Coast Guard regulations limited the number of passengers to 147 during the month of June. Murphy's agreed to take the extra passengers on the Puffin, but there were still more volunteers than space on the boats. Thanks very much to one of our members for hiring Four Winds Charters to take the extra volunteers to the island. Overall everything went well and the beaches of McNabs Island and to a lesser extent Lawlor Island were cleaned. Along with the usual assortment of garbage, volunteers found a prescription bottle dated 1961, old weathered books and navy flares. We had good press coverage from both the Daily News and the Chronicle Herald. Thanks to all the girl guides, boy scouts, Clean Nova Scotia and Environment Canada staff, the Sierra Club, and Friends of McNabs volunteers.

  • Waves in Halifax Harbour

A. NEU A.O.L. REPORT 68-3 MAY 1968 PROGRAMMED BY THE CANADIAN COMMITTEE OF OCEANOGRAPHY ATLANTIC OCEANOGRAPHIC LABORATORY BEDFORD INSTITUTE DARTMOUTH, N.S. REPORT WAVES IN HALIFAX HARBOUR BY H.A. NEU February 1968 Department of Energy, Mines and Resources Marine Sciences Branch Canada Summary Phenomena which cause ships to oscillate in Halifax Harbour are described and analysed using semi- theoretical principles. It is concluded that the dis- turbances are caused primarily by ocean waves, with periods of 4.0 to 8.0 seconds, penetrating into the harbour. These waves spread as arc-shaped curves over the harbour and approach the wharves obliquely with the result that many ships oscillate with large response factors. Since the natural periods of oscillation of a wide range of ships are similar to those of the predominant ocean waves, resonance or near resonance motion of the ships will occur. This response is probably the main cause for severe disturbances in the harbour. Significant design concepts are formulated which will guide the layout of future harbour develop- ments. Recommendations are submitted to improve the layout of the proposed Pier "C". A proposal is included which would permit undisturbed container
