Uplands Park and Oak Bay are on the ancestral territory of the Lekwungen people, known today as the Songhees and Esquimalt Nations. We respect and honour their vital relationship with these lands and waters and how they have cared for them through countless generations, continuing to the present and into the future.
Great to see the new bike rack at the Midland entrance to Uplands Parks. Thank you to the Rotary Club of Oak Bay. This is the third bike rack Rotary has donated to Uplands Park and another will be installed at Cattle Point in the near future. Photo taken September 27, 2016.
