see our new Visitor Centre and to hear more about our 2015 events and our ongoing landscape
rehabilitation projects.
Councillor Mike Layton (Ward 19 Trinity-Spadina) and his office will be in attendance. They are interested in
hearing your input and feedback about recent improvements and future plans. If you are unable to attend the
Open House, but would like to learn more please feel free to contact David O'Hara at Fort
