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 />
