Edmonton Lido

A Memory of Edmonton.

One of your contributors mentioned about the Edmonton Lido, near Jubilee Park. I certainly do remember it, and I too spent most of my summer there, even if it was raining. There was a shop/cafe close to the sunbathing area but I seldom had any money to spend there. I loved their Puff Candy, which was chocolate covered honeycomb, and it was a wonderful treat if I did have enough for one of those. I think I would have been at the Lido between 1958 and 1965. I learnt to swim there...and learnt to be an adult. It was a very important part of my life.
