September was Basic Education and Literary Month and on Sept. 23, after months of preproduction, the Pender Harbour Rotary Club marked the occasion with the unveiling of their Storybook Walk. The grand opening was held at 11 a.m. with cookies and juice for the children.
The Storybook Walk is intended to create opportunities for children and their families to read and stay active.
A series of 22 pedestals wind away along the paths in Tyner Park at Lily Lake, with captions that centre on physical activity and literacy. The trail starts from the pathway entrance across from the Pender Harbour Health Centre beside the parking lot. Featured books will be rotated on a regular basis. Pictured are Mirelle Parr and Michael Parr on a learning adventure along the Storybook Walk.
