McLennan has named its walking and cycling trails in honour of the man who contributed so much to their creation. On Nov. 6, residents gathered to show their appreciation to Dr. Pieter DeWet, a well-respected and long-time physician in McLennan. He spearheaded the McLennan Leisure and Recreation Society. Fifteen years ago, Dr. DeWet and the committee had a vision to develop walking and cycling trails along the Kimiwan lakefront. Visitors and residents can now enjoy 3.2-km of walking and cycling trails with 1.3 km of the trails paved. It is now called the DeWet Trail in recognition of Dr. DeWet’s work and dedication.
