I was a Jr Ranger in Ivanhoe Provincail park during the summer of 1976. Best summer ever, Played baseball, fished and worked in the park. Best job was on the garbage truck, All of us took a trip into Timmins,Had my first Molson export in this old Timmins bar,

Steve Ouellette.
Nickname, I cannot remember.

I really don’t know what going to happen in the future.Had a great time in the summer and great memories.

I was at Ivanhoe in 1962 . I remember your Dad and Mom well. Your Dad shot a black bear (at the camp sites) and I still have a tooth. The neatest think was it turned us into men, We started with 20, buy the end o the summer it was 12 . Home sick was the reason. I remember your Dad put us to work when we arrived! Was the best summer of my life.

So many great things: the camp, the program, the staff, though the 42 unique seventeen year old rangers made the program and memorable summers. Very nice to hear from some of you. Live in BC, I just heard about the closure of the program, shame on the Ontario government.
