With summer just around the corner, residents along the St. Lawrence River have a refreshed destination for their long, sunny days. The St.
Lawrence Parks Commission has unveiled the newly-revitalized Brown’s Bay Beach , a project completed with a $5-million investment to draw beachgoers from across the region. The revitalization marks the completion of a significant upgrade to Brown’s Bay on the Thousand Islands Parkway near Brockville. This cherished summer spot, popular among locals and tourists for decades, now boasts a brand-new look.
Hollee Kew, CEO of the St. Lawrence Parks Commission, expressed excitement about the reopening: “This is a beloved park in the community of Mallorytown and the front of Young Township. We’re just so excited today to give this back to the community as a beautiful park of the Saint Lawrence.
” The $5 million investment made it possible to rebuild the elevated beach with a stone wall and access to the St. Lawrence River. It also helped with the new changing rooms, a canteen and a pavilion to enjoy the warm summer days on the water.
