I didn't know that Champion's paper was on that site. After visiting it now, I see there are some Arrowwood issues, too. None for the rest of the County towns, yet. Maybe in the future. I'll look forward to any other articles that you do. Norma Aldred I enjoyed your article, Lisa.

]]> Comment on Travers Reservoir before Little Bow Provincial Park by Elgin http://vulcancountyhistory.com/2010/03/travers-reservoir-before-little-bow-provincial-park/comment-page-1/#comment-11 Elgin Tue, 13 Jul 2010 16:51:22 +0000 http://vulcancountyhistory.com/?p=33#comment-11 I recall helping with the planting of the poplar trees at the beginnings of "Little Bow Park". I believe it was an initiative of the Lions Club along with churches in the area that helped with volunteers to plant these trees. They were just saplings at the time of planting and to see these majestic trees now had quite the impact when I saw them a few years back. Beautiful park!
