PROPOSED TRAIL POINTS OF INTEREST

Last June we posted a list of places that, due to their age, architectural significance, owner/past owner, connection to our shared heritage, or other interesting features, we hoped to include on the expanded Live Our Heritage Trails.  We’ve updated the List of Proposed Trail Points of Interest and would like to speak with any owner of a property listed here, as we did in 2013 with the development of the Metis East and Metis West Trails, as well as anyone with ideas of places that are missing, topics that should be covered, and so on.  Please email Pam at pandersson@heritagelsl.ca or call 418-936-3239 or 1-855-936-3239.
