Sooke Basin Boardwalk

Letter to Sooke News Mirror about our Boardwalk

We would like to express our thanks to the District of Sooke for the excellent job of constructing the boardwalk at Ed McGregor Park.

Last Sunday afternoon, we gained a new appreciation for the facility when we visited the site with our friends. One of our friends is confined to a wheelchair. He was delighted by the beauty of the setting and by being able to travel through the woods and over the water effortlessly.

Our friend, when he was able to, always enjoyed camping and fishing. It was a delight for him and us to be able to participate in activities he has not been able to for some time due to his progressive disability.

Thank you so much for this wonderful facility.
