Hello all,

Lakes Regional Park at St Peters Church Hall, 3 Dakin Drive near the =
corner of Kearney Lake Rd and the Bedford Highway. Come early (6:30 PM) =
to look at some new maps.

Many community groups have been involved since the early discussions =
about the proposed Regional Park and are excited to share that progress =
is being made.  HRM Staff and the Protected Areas Branch of NS =
Environment have been discussing a Grand Vision for the Regional Park =
and will be making a presentation at 7:00 PM followed by Q&A.  Next =
steps will be crafted over the next few months. Please come out and =
support this event.  We need strong (overwhelming) public support to =
convince HRM Regional Council that we are ready to move ahead to make =
the Regional Park a reality!!

See you on May 31st and bring your friends and neighbours so they can =
learn about this future park, destined to be the largest near-urban =
Wilderness Park in Canada!
