an appropriate guest speaker and a pageant portraying the work and achievements of the Prince Edward Island Women‘s Institutes.

As in the past, the Maple Leaf Women's Institute will join with sister members in these festivities.

Love thou thy land, with love far-brought

From out the storied Past, and used

Within the Present, but transfused

Thro’ future time by power of thought. Tennyson

LOCATION

One of Prince Edward Island’s oldest communities is Traveller’s Rest. It is situated in Lot 19, about the narrowest part of the province.

At Traveller’s Rest Corner, one can look to the north to Richmond Bay and to the south to an arm of Bedeque Bay.

The community is served by several roads. On the east are the Condon and Wilmot roads, which separate the district from New Annan. On the south is the Loyalist line, which is the division of farms between Wilmot Valley and Traveller’s Rest. On the west is land which was formerly owned by Stutley Yeo, John Hall, John Milligan and Richard Wood. These lands adjoin the Sherbrooke School District. To the north lies Richmond Bay, now better known as Malpeque Bay.
