    New golf course in Ottawa area?

    I have passed it a couple of times now , and maybe its wishful thinking , but it looks like a new golf course being developed on the north side of the 417 around exit 79.
    Its pretty much in the middle of nowhere which makes me doubt that its a new housing developement , and the way the tress have been cleared , well , i can imagine some fairways being there .
    Anyone heard anything ?

    If this is true , its a terrible waste of potential golfing park land , although it will be nice on a hot day

    A new water park is coming to the Ottawa region.
    The new park, slated to open in the summer of 2009, will be located outside of Limoges, 43 kilometres from downtown Ottawa. The president of Village Vacances Valcartier, the company creating the park, said it will help fill in the gaps of Ottawa's tourism industry.

    Opinions are lukewarm within Ottawa’s east end on the potential economic spin-off of a planned water park just outside Limoges, a town a few dozen kilometers outside Gloucester.
    The SunnyLand water park, a $50 million project to be splashed along 460 acres of rolling countryside just off the Queensway, is set for a June 2009 opening. It’s also projected to attract over $750 million in fresh tourism dollars to the area over the next decade, but enthusiasm for the project amongst local community leaders appears mixed.

    Thanks Dan.
    Sounds like it is bigger than Cascasde.
    Man...my kids are going to have some there. Hopefully there no delays in the opening.
