Jane’s Walk of Moore Park Sunday morning

Sunday, May 3, 2014, will see better weather for the Jane’s Walk through Moore Park. This interesting neighborhood which was built during the 1920s was orignally known as Lot 16. Before homes were constructed in the mid 20s and after, there was a militar barracks perched on the crest of the heights where Ridge Drive now runs. The barracks down in 1919. Much similar lore and perhaps more timely information wll be available from walk leader and local resident Lorraine Tinsley. The walk is supported by Kristyn Wong-Tam (Ward 26). It is said that you’ll learn about famous residents, treasured architectural features and natural landscapes on this walk. This is a two hour event beginning at 10 a.m. with the marshalling point in Moorevale Park on Moore Ave.
PADDLE THE DON
Tomorrow is also the day of the Manulife Paddle the Don event in which hundreds of paddlers travel 10.5km from E.T. Seton Park to the mouth of the Don River in Toronto at the Keating Channel. It is said to be an experience like no other.
