Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, May 7, 1986, page 7 Area parks re-opening soon By Jim Chappel The Ministry of Natural Resources advises that the Provincial Park Camp- grounds in the Terrace Bay District are being prepared for the summer season. The Rossport Provincial Campground is scheduled to open on May 9, and on May 16, Rainbow Provinc- ial Campground is also scheduled to open. Both will open at full services/ full rates. Pedal boat ren- tals are once again plann- ed to be available at Rain- bow Falls. With the Casque-Isles Section of the Voyageur Hiking Trail passing through the Rainbow Falls Park Campground, hiking is becoming an increasing- ly popular park activity. Pouliot Ina letter to the Ontario Minister of Transportation and Communications, the MPP for the Lake Nipigon Riding mentioned "a ser- ious and vital matter" which had been brought to his attention by the Lake Superior Board of Educat- ion recently. "*Since the fall of 1985 the Board has been desper- ately trying to encourage your Ministry to place road signs in key areas of the province reminding all motorists that they must stop for any school bus with flashing lights,'" MPP Gilles Pouliot explained in his letter, which was sent on April 14. A copy was obtained by the News. "I am sure you realize that a lack of these warn- ing signs creates an in- credibly dangerous, life- threatening situation," he added. Pouliot also said to the Minister, Ed Fulton, that according to the LSBE, school buses travelling on the Trans-Canada Highway have already experienced several situations where cars have failed to stop for them. "'T would therefore like to encourage you and your Ministry to reconsider this important problem," Poul- iot said. "It is the Min- istry's first duty to protect the lives of the citizens of the province...especially in areas where comprehens- ive protection is not already available." Pouliot, who represents the Terrace Bay-Schreiber area at Queen's Park, con- Hikers often use the park as a convenient base camp from which to hike the Superior shoreline by day, and have all of the com- forts of home plus a camp- fire for the evening. _ Neys Provincial Park is scheduled to open on May 16 at reduced services/re- duced rates. Full fees will come into effect in June, when running water is pro- vided to the campground. Daily interpretive pro- grams and visitor services events will begin in late June. These will include evening slide/film pro- grams, guided hikes, campfire singsongs and regular hours for the visitor centre. In addition to these pro- grams and the holiday upset cluded his letter by ex- pressing his hope that the proper road warning signs will be posted in key areas of the province as soon as possible to remind motor- ists to obey the law and stop for all school buses. Earlier this year, Pouliot was appointed as the New Democratic Party Critic for the Ministry of Transport- ation and Communications. events scheduled for Neys Park, a special weekend is planned for August 16 and 17, highlighting the history of Neys. Programs and events will focus on the Prisoner of War Camp, and the logging, commer- cial fishing and railroad history of the area. The park staff would appreciate the suggestions and ass- istance of local townspeo- ple or other persons who were a part of the history of Neys, in providing per- iod costumes and in just becoming involved in our Neys Nostalgia Days weekend.
