Bring Back Beechwood

The Bring Back Beechwood tour will focus on the local community's fervent desire for the revitalization of our neighbourhood shopping street. We will celebrate the past and provide a vision for the future of Beechwood Avenue.

Location
Route
The tour will walk along Crichton to Beechwood, then east along Beechwood close to Beechwood cemetery. We will then return to St Charles Church for coffee and goodies. Along the way we will have four stopping points with reminiscences from local long-time residents and shopkeepers “ I remember when….” and a visioning for the future based on Main Street principles.
