The Confederation Trail is intersected by O’Leary’s main street, and is an excellent starting point for a day of walking, biking, enjoying nature, and getting to know West Prince in a whole new way. Snowmobiling is a popular winter pastime, and the trail offers many rest areas for coffee and warmth. |
The latest attraction added to our Community is a 14 foot fibreglass Russet Burbank potato, which stands on the front lawn of the world's only potato museum. It's a big potato and quite unique.
This project is representative of potato growing and shipping in our Community and was realized through fund raising efforts by the local potato industry and other interested parties. The potato was created by Pat MacHugh of Waterline Inc., an Island fibre glassing company.
It is an excellent photograph background for you and your family, which would make a lasting momento of our Community. While visiting the museum grounds, take a stroll around to the little red schoolhouse, the old Catholic Church and the log building which houses artifacts from O'Leary's history. As well, the children would really enjoy the playground which is situated nearby. |
