Baybrook would be a priceless gift to families

To Whom it May Concern,

Please allow Baybrook to be restored as a nature house. The setting makes it an ideal teaching tool, with rich variety of flora and fauna in Mack Laing park, a front door to the ocean, and numerous fruit and nut trees on the Baybrook property.

I have been on a couple of nature walks with the Young Naturalists Club, one in Mack Laing Park, and one out at low tide at Point Holmes. I witnessed genuine excitement from the kids, as well as their parents, as their tour guides showed them the wonders of the natural world. Children and their parents learning new things and being amazed together is priceless. A Baybrook nature house would inspire more of this in our families.

Mack Laing wished for his property to become a park for the community to enjoy, and now Mack Laing Park is a favorite place for many in Comox. He also wished to turn Baybrook into a nature house for learning about the natural world. I think we would be wise to take advantage of this gift as well.

Thanks,
Jordie
