Grand River Country iPhone – iPad App

Designated as a Canadian Heritage River in 1994, the Grand River in Southern Ontario is managed by the Grand River Conservation Authority and sustains a population of over 900,000 people. It is also one of the major destinations in Southern Ontario for outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, hunting camping, and canoeing.

This year several communities along the Grand River, including Elora, Fergus, and Brantford, have combined their resources and developed a fantastic application for iPhone and iPad users. This application gives visitors instant access to a wealth of local information specific to their current location along the Grand, or allows users to plan ahead as they journey through this vibrant well managed waterway. This year it's easier than ever to find food, lodging, and places of interest throughout the Grand River watershed.

Congratulations to Grand River Country for providing this useful tool that will be well used by visitors and residents alike. I'm sure it will lead us to many hidden gems that are waiting to be discovered. Hopefully BlackBerry and Android versions aren't far off.
