MEMORIES OF THE BEACH STRIP
By Gary Evans
It was a place of many things.
It was a great place to spend a holiday; a fascinating place to live; and a one of a kind place to have fun.
It was a special place to watch the ships sail into the harbour, and one of the best places anywhere
to hear the music of some of the world’s best entertainers.
It was a place to fish and to hunt, and a place to play. But foremost, it was a beach.
A special beach, just minutes from downtown Hamilton and a stone’s throw from the heart of Burlington, it was Burlington Beach to some, Hamilton Beach for others, and yet was also known as the Beach Strip or the Sand Strip.
