"Because I had been summering in Pointe au Baril all my life and had picnicked on this island many times, I couldnąt bear to see further development encroaching among the islands. More cottages, boats and docks would lead to loss of privacy and freedom of picnicking. It was important for me and my family that we preserve this island from development and we feel strongly that the Georgian Bay land Trust is doing this extremely important work for all of us."
