Description

We will explore Harrison Park for an hour to an hour and a half.  Where we go will depend upon the walking conditions.  Snowshoes or icers may be needed.  Check with the leader if you are unsure of what to bring.  Refreshments afterwards at the Harrison Park Inn.  Suitable for families and new hikers.  Fun fact - The lands comprising Harrison Park were sold to the City of Owen Sound by the family of John Harrison after his death for $10,000 (half of which was paid by the Harrison family).  The park was officially turned over to the city on July 7, 1912.  For more informaion or if you are unable to register, please call or text the leader at 647-918-4180.
