Join us as the GHS welcomes John Holbourne to the April Speaker Series as he presents "Indigenous Trails That Traverse North America". The presentation includes the history of how trade goods moved through ancient pathways, trading patterns in the Grimsby area and how current trails reflect those patterns. Beamer Trail and how the master plan for trails affects our local trails will also be discussed.
John is a long-term members of the Grimsby Historical Society and currently resides at the entry to Beamer Trail, on the site of a grist mill and a saw mill. His work on the trail has been ongoing, specifically in the wetland areas - concentrating on drainage and rehydrating the land.
