John Jolliffe Park in Rockwood could soon be a no-tobogganing zone
A popular winter activity may be no longer in Rockwood pending a council decision.
Tobogganing has the potential to be disallowed at the hill in John Jolliffe Park after a discussion in Guelph/Eramosa this week.
The recommendation before council pointed out an inspection “found the hill’s steep slope and short run-out” are hazards to public safety.
Councillors had a robust discussion about the concerns that exist safety-wise and pondered safe-fails to decrease the worry surrounding the slope.
Hay bales at the bottom of the steep hill were suggested to offset the short run-out.
