Hi Chris,

Right, it's not labeled as such on Google maps.  If you follow Shore Dr =
south from the Sackville River outflow, you will come across Shipyard Rd =
which provides access to the Park.  Located there also is the Bedford =
Outdoor Pool which is labeled.  Good luck!

      I compile the Bedford West portion of the Bedford-Sackville CBC =
