FRIENDS OF QUETICO PARK

Our Mission

For many years the Friends of Quetico Park, has sponsored summer students for assistance with the Park’s summer programs. By assisting programs such as the Natural Heritage Program, an educational program run for youth that visit Dawson Trail Campground, we have helped educate Canada’s youth about the beauty and cultural wonders of our park. We have assisted the John B. Ridley Library with numerous students over the years to support library services. We have purchased books and shelving units for the library to broaden its collection and its appeal to all visitors to the Dawson Trail Pavilion.

Some of the publications that we have published:

•An Illustrated History of Quetico Provincial Park •Plants of Quetico and the Ontario Shield •The Birds of Quetico Provincial Park and the Atikokan Area •Fascinating Facts •Lake Names of Quetico... •Pages from the Past: Voyageurs and Early Explorers
