Newsletter, January 9, 2012
Dear Friends of Bridge Lake Happy New Year to you all. It’s very wintery here, with low temperatures of -27°C, maybe we’re finally getting winter weather. There is still no word as to when the Ministers will be asked to vote on the Order in Council, changing the UREP designation on the portion of Crown Land being offered in exchange for Heritage Island. The Directors will be sending a letter to the Premier and all the Ministers outlining our opposition to this exchange. We are in the process of writing this letter and once it is sent it will be posted on our website. Any of you who wish to express your opinions regarding the land exchange are encouraged to do so, please see our website for the addresses of the Premier and Ministers. Just before Christmas, Bruce Rattray informed several community groups that there was some funding available for low mobility trails. The time frame was too short for us to be able to submit a proposal. We were contacted by The Friends of Lac des Roche to see if we were interested in working with them. We are and will do so during this year. Bruce thinks there will be additional funding down the road, so we have some lead time to come up with a proposal. It turns out that the Roe Lake and Interlakes Community group has submitted a proposal for a trail from the community centre to the marsh below it. We certainly hope that their proposal will be successful. All our best wished to you and your families for the coming year. Sincerely, The Directors of the Friends of Bridge Lake |
