Things to do
While in the area you can take a break at one of the benches and watch the various species of birds that drop into this area during the warmer months. There is also a large open area good for playing a little Frisbee or other activities.
A Brief History of Val Quentin
The Village of Val Quentin is situated at the site of a farm originally owned by Arthur J. Cantin. Quentin and Cantin are pronounced the same in French and so the name of the village is literally translated as "Cantin's Valley". Arthur Cantin (1881-1967) purchased the land in 1933. He became a grain grower and a honey producer the work he enjoyed most. Beginning in 1954, the farm was surveyed and subdivided into lots. The Village was incorporated in 1966.
