The City of Parksville installed the Mobi-mat at Parksville Community Beach Park this week. The delay was due to some minor but necessary repairs and resulting renewal of permits to install the mats on our protected shoreline. Also launched this week was the Mobi-chair, a special wheelchair designed to go on the sand and float in the warm shallow waters of Parksville Beach. The free two-hour rental can be arranged by contacting The Beach Club Resort at 250-248-8999. Togethe
