Memorial Bench ProgramGoing for a Walk
Many people have a favourite quiet place, a refuge, to which
they go when they feel stressed or need to think a bit by
themselves or just to get away from it all. Peaceful natural
areas, forest walks, views out to the river or the lake and lots of
lovely mature trees help people cope with the hustle and
bustle of modern business and family life. It’s all about quiet
and simple….
The Rideau Valley Conservation Foundation offers a
Memorial Bench Program in memory of departed loved ones
or friends. We can prepare and install a memorial bench with
a memorial plaque on your behalf in your choice of one of the
many conservation areas and parks around the valley…places
where people enjoy many satisfying and relaxing days during
their busy lives. The family can purchase a memorial bench
and have it installed at their favourite park as a long-lasting
tribute to a loved one. The gift of a memorial bench is also a
valuable public service to the many people who use the park
today and in the future.
The Memorial Bench Program gives you a visual memorial
of your loved one and gives the community a new place to sit,
relax and let the natural world calm our overloaded bodies
and minds. Meisel Woods, Foley Mountain, Beryl Gaffney
Park, Chapman Mills Conservation Area…we relax just
thinking about these quiet, simple places. And if you had your
own family bench to look forward to?
Making a gift of a memorial bench is simple too. Just fill
out the information on this card, fax it in or call us and we’ll
take it from there. Thank you for considering a gift of a
memorial bench…we appreciate it.
