Free Summer Wolfe Island Wind Farm Walking Tours 2010
Once again the Rotary Club of Kingston is sponsoring free Wolfe Island Wind Farm Walking Tours. The student-led tours are operating daily this year, rain or shine, from July 16th until August 29th, 2010.
The Tour Guides depart from the downtown Kingston tourist information centre at 209 Ontario Street at 10 am and 1:30 pm, Monday to Sunday. Guides provide information on the history of Wolfe Island and give a 20 to 30 minute presentation on the turbine project from a viewing area that is approximately 0.5 km walking distance from the ferry. They then escort the participants back to the village to catch the next ferry. Visitors may decide to remain on the island to have lunch or dinner and explore at their leisure. The round trip tour takes approximately 3 to 4 hours. Visitors are asked to wear comfortable shoes, dress for the weather, and pack a lunch and snacks or plan to eat in one of the restaurants on Wolfe Island. Come and spend and enjoyable day with family and friends on the island.
If you have guests visiting over the summer, consider suggesting a tour of the Wolfe Island Wind Farm.
If you have any questions about the tour, please contact Charlene Fawcett, charlene.fawcett@rbc.com, 613-549-6484, for more information.
