years. The labyrinth pattern is similar to
a circle, one of nature's most basic
forms, a symbol of harmony, wholeness,
grace and transformation. One entrance
point guides the walker through a series
of switchbacks that leads eventually to
the center of the pattern. Walking a
labyrinth is reported to support healing,
meditation and
personal growth. Visit us online at

andis a very social game.
If curling sounds like it might be fun (it is!), check out the Carleton Place Curling
Club website (www.cpcurling.ca) where you can find information on ‘Learn to
Curl’, registration for the upcoming year, our annual Community and Family
Bonspiels (specifically geared to non-curlers), and many other events and activities.Our facility is also available to rent for those special occasions and you will
find we offer competitve rates.
See you on the ice!

Roy Brown Museum
Located at the historic Moore House, 165 Bridge St., Carleton Place.
The Roy Brown Society are building a collection that tells the
incredible story of Capt. A.Roy Brown and many other world
War I Fighter Aces that came from Carleton Place. Roy
Brown is the pilot officially credited with the downing of the
famous German Ace, Baron Manfred Von Richtofen. This was
a major event in World War I. The Roy Brown Society, along
with the citizens of Carleton Place are keen to ensure that this
story is not lost in time. The museum is open in the summer
months and throughout the rest of the year by chance or by
appointment. Please check the Town of Carleton Place website for other information.
