Rage IB April IBM Letter to the editor Bruce Trail has To the editor of The Herald As the archivist of the Bruce Trail Association or the gal who looks afler the historical documents in her spare time I have had the opportunity to read oil Die correspondence sent lo the Secretory of the Bruce Trail In the period from to the present day These letters numbering In the thousands come from high school and primary school students and teachers in outdoor education programmes university students writing essays and theses about the trail boy scout groups social workers Government Ministries tourist organizations sports equipment stores overseas visitors and would be trail builders from all Canada Britain and Australia As I read these letters two very obvious facts emerge First the Bruce Trail has provided enjoyment and fulfil to countless numbers of people of oil ages and from all walks of life all over the world It has satisfied the needs both physically and psychologically of more than just small clique of bird from the city or an Irresponsible group of party teenagers The Niagara Edcnrpment Task Force Report Issued In 1972 says Even hikers and campers probably do not realize how widely the Bruce Trail Is known or how highly esteemed It is by nature lovers In other parts of the world there are few trails anywhere in the world quite like the Bruce The second fact to emerge is that Ray the Secretory of the Bruce Trail and its founder has given thousands of hours of UNPAID time from to 1980 advising helping to improve the lives and often the mental health of an unbelievable number of grateful people who have used the troll over the past years Indeed from 19G0 to Ray Lowes held down a full time portion as metallurgist at spending hours after work daily answering an enormous pile of correspond and organizing an army of volunteers becoming htm self an armchair hiker spend ing most of his leisure hours providing happiness for others Stelco rewarded his dedication with a small Bruce Trail office on their premises in 1972 and since his retire- nt in 1976 he has continued lo work full in a unpaid capacity to continue his the Bruce Trail He once called it an act of faith and man would call II an act of humanity The Bruce Trail is a monu ment the selfless coopera lion and ordination of volunteers prepared to work clonings and weekends to produce one of the finest footpaths in the world It wis and st is a miracle in ll of this may 1967 group Guidelines issued on police breakins Regional Police have been issued guidelines to deal with occasions when the
