The annual family fun of tobogganing the hills of Howard Talbot Park (seen last year above) has had to be stopped for this winter only. The word comes Roger Macklin, General Supervisor of Parks Operations for this area of Toronto. It is for a good cause. The park has recently been re-sodded and the new turf needs to “breath” under the snow cover. Rough treatment impedes that and might cause some other difficulty with growth. Mr Macklin’s full letter may be read here.
