Family Cools Off By Floating Down Cobourg Creek

In Local, Weather

A Cobourg family found a way to have some fun during COVID-19 times on Sunday, May 3, 2020.

Kyle Withers, his girlfriend Pam McIlmoyle and her children Tia (age 14) and brother Taylor (age 13) started off in James Cockburn Park on William Street in two homemade crafts and ventured, sometimes walked in areas down along Cobourg Creek to Peace Park.

Along the way, the family saw numerous fish in the creek, and they all said how cold the water was, but it was something different to do on a sunny day.
