Welcome! Watch your step… site under construction.
Plans are slowly forming to organize a formal web-based archive of Toronto Island History. Eric Zhelka is coordinating this archival effort, occasionally assisted by Eric Light, still inspired by the late Edward (Ted) English, and gratefully supported by former and current Toronto Islanders who gather on the TorontoIslandConnections Groups.io Group.

Kind regards,
Eric Zhelka, for
