Shore Stories, Our Zine
Shore Stories is the official Zine of the Lakeshore Grounds Interpretive Centre. We publish three times a year, and use it as a place to feature small stories or tidbits of cool information we come across. We include contributors from our staff and volunteers, as well as community members, and people who are just plain interested in engaging with the Lakeshore Grounds area.
Please note that we are working on accessible versions of the issues available below and will post soon.
If you would like to offer feedback on any of our issues, or contribute to a future zine, please, reach out to the team. They're pretty nice, you can reach them at info@lakeshoregrounds.ca
Happy reading!
