Huron St Portage

Wellness For Everyone

Boardwalk Completion

 The Huron St portage project at Mud Creek in Port Franks is now complete. A deck extension, ramp, floating dock and canoe/kayak launch has been installed; bringing to an end a project that started in 2022 with the initial installation of the boardwalk and main deck. We would like to thank all the great volunteers who gave freely of their time! This is a welcomed addition to the community - giving easy access to Mud Creek for canoeists and kayakers.

Boardwalk Completion

We are pleased to announce the completion of the Ausable River Cut boardwalk.  This project not only involved the building of the boardwalk but also the addition of a rope to section off the sensitive dune grass areas and a handrail along the elevated section.  Thank you to all the volunteers along with the donors who helped make this project possible.

Boot Brushes Installed

Boot Brushes Installed

In partnership with the Lambton Shores Phragmites Community Group, we installed two boot brush stands on the Woodland Heritage Trail behind the Lambton Heritage Museum.  Boot brush stands help prevent the spread of invasive species by allowing hikers to brush their footwear before and after navigating the trail. 

Wind Phone

Boot Brushes Installed

We are proud to announce the installation of our first Wind Phone at the Ausable River Cut Conservation Area.  Thanks to the work of Ed Hunter, Ross Atkinson and Lee Main.  The plaque reads:

 

Though I've lost you,

I can hear your voice

in the silent echoes of your absence.

You speak to me through rustling leaves,

whistling wind and bowing branches.

Though I've lost you,

I feel you here

in this shrine of trees

in nature's sanctuary.

This Wind Phone is for all who grieve.

You are welcome to find solace here.

Please use it to connect with those you have lost.

To feel the comfort of their memory.

May you hear their voices in the wind.

May you be at peace with your losses.

Habitat Stewardship

LSNT hosted a very informative seminar on the Habitat Stewardship Program in progress at the Pinery. Victoria Pepe, a research student from the Pinery, was the guest speaker. She spoke about threatened and endangered species in the area and how we can help preserve and improve the natural habitat for these species (red headed woodpecker, bank swallow, whippoorwill, and monarch butterfly). Thanks to the Ausable Port Franks Optimist Club for providing the meeting room and for The Friends of Pinery Park for partnering with us for this event.
