Message from the Mayor<br />

On behalf of the Council and staff of the<br />

Township of <strong>Selwyn</strong>, it is my pleasure to provide<br />

you with the <strong>2016</strong> Community and Recreation<br />

Services <strong>Guide</strong>.<br />

In the past, the guide was focused more on<br />

Recreation Services, this year, we have included<br />

municipal and community information that you<br />

and your family may find helpful.<br />

As you explore the guide you will note the many<br />

wonderful services and facilities our Township<br />

has to offer for keeping active and involved. The<br />

Township hosts numerous attractions, festivals,<br />

and special events; including Polarfest and the<br />

Shamrock festival. We also have many local<br />

cultural and historical attractions and a variety<br />

of charming and scenic trails.<br />

Perhaps the best part about <strong>Selwyn</strong> is its people.<br />

Our community is dedicated to volunteerism,<br />

community beautification and engagement.<br />

1 encourage you to become involved in the<br />

community and experience<br />
