The Word on the Street...

“I planned to save it for a rainy day, but I picked up the book to take a quick look and didn’t put it down until six hours later. Great job. Very well put together. (Rick Edwards).

“Every soccer player should read this book about the Laurentian legacy. Love it. Great read.” (Jim Loder)

“I had my head stuck in the book for hours. Great read.” (Reg Farrell)

Have you had a chance to check out some of our regular attractions yet?

If you’re looking for something a little more ordinary to take a break from all the excitement, this is for you ☺️
