The quest to set up a secret space for adventure and fun in the woods of Iona is underway. | SaltWire
Catlow, Douglas-Brown and their two children , moved to Cape Breton more than a year ago. Noticing most activities were marketed to tourists or adults, Catlow started holding art-adventure forest events.In December, she held the Boisdale Forest Festival in the woods in Iona which drew almost 400 people.
Because the other events were one-offs, Catlow had to be able to build and tear down the same day. Her hopes are that Bobcat Hollow will allow them to create a base structure that can be built on and developed, based on what attendees tell them they like and what they don't. A group of children and their parents sit in a den they built during one of the forest adventure events held in Iona in the summer and was organized by Cadi Catlow. CONTRIBUTED - ContributedThe business model for Bobcat Hollow is based on those in countries like Wales, Germany and Scotland where forest adventure parks are popular.
Currently, they have three pieces of property picked out for potential sites and hope to secure the full financing amount so they can purchase the biggest parcel of land. "I want as many people from as many backgrounds as possible participating in it. I don't want to just cater to the rich ones," she said."I want to see people coming back, returning over and over and over again."
