THE LIFESTYLE Grimbsy, Ontario

The town of Grimsby was founded in 1790 (originally named Township Number 6 and then 'The Forty'), aBer a group of United Empire Loyalists seFled at the mouth of 40 Mile Creek in 1787. Robert Nelles, a poliNcian and later lieutenant-­‐colonel in the War of 1812, was one of the main founders of the town. His home, located on Main Street West, was used for many planning sessions during the war. In 1816 the village became known as Grimsby, the name of the surrounding township. Canada's first Chautauqua was established in 1859 in Grimsby Park and Beach but by 1900 interest had declined and by 1909 it had ceased.

The Village of Grimsby was officially incorporated in 1876 and became a town in 1922. The town has gone through numerous changes, being first a small rural village; then a centre for the manufacture of farm machinery, hospital furniture, furnaces and other metal products; and later the hub of the Niagara Peninsula's fruit-­‐growing industry. For many years, Grimsby also had a successful fishing industry which lasted unNl the 1960s. The Town of Grimsby and the Township of North Grimsby were amalgamated in 1970 with the formaNon of the Regional Municipality of Niagara. With a number of wineries and disNlleries, Grimsby now serves as the starNng point for touring the Niagara wine region.

Grimsby is also the birthplace of a now forgoFen Hollywood director, Del Lord. He rose to acclaim as the director of most of the Three Stooges short vaudeville comedies. Later, under Columbia Pictures, he also directed nearly 200 feature films.

Grimsby Beach was once a major holiday resort. Grimsby Park started in 1846 as a park for the Hamilton district of the Methodist Church. In 1910, the park’s new owner, Harry Wylie, modernized the park with carousels, a moNon picture theater, and a "Figure 8" roller coaster. Canada Steamship Lines bought out the park in 1916, but the park declined through the 1920s, mainly due to mulNple fires that consumed many of the wooden buildings. OperaNons conNnued unNl 1949, with aFracNons gradually closing and developers buying land to build houses.

Grimsby is closer than you’d think. Just 1 hour from downtown Toronto, 30 minutes from Oakville and 30 minutes from downtown Niagara Falls and the United States Border. Not only is Grimsby accessibly by the QEW and other local roads, it also has the convenience of VIA Rail and GO Transit for a quick commute to the downtown core.

Situated on the shores of Lake Ontario and bordered by the Niagara Escarpment, Grimsby features excellent public and private schools. Tour wineries, Art fesNvals, camping, fishing, boaNng and experience a life you never knew existed.
