Walking and hiking trails are popular tourism attractions; they contribute to real estate value; they preserve the environment; they are a vital link for students to downtown amenities; and they promote a healthy lifestyle for its users. Corner Brook Stream Trail Network is certainly an asset to our community, however, the commitment and cost of maintaining the trail network is significant. The CBSDC has the following fundraising goals:
- To successfully fundraise in all potential markets in support of the mission of the Corner Brook Stream Development Corporation.
- To seek out and utilize funding for investment in projects and to facilitate partnerships that integrates the Corner Brook Stream Trail system into the social, economical and cultural fabric of the Western Region.

Our partner benefit packages will offer your company positive opportunities through our ongoing marketing initiatives. The following are descriptions of some of the corporate benefits offered at various levels of support (please see the Partner Level and Benefits Sheets):
Project of Choice:
The CBSDC is continuously working on new projects and ideas. Our organization will gladly assist you in choosing an available project. Your company may have the privilege of sponsoring a project that can range from infrastructure (ie. Wetland Interpretation site, connector bridge) to programs that will enhance community involvement (ie. Ready, Set Walk Program, guided educational tours).
Trail Kiosks and/or Trailhead signs
Your company name and logo on a trailhead sign is a great way to show your support for such a valued community resource. Also, trail kiosks are strategically located at highly visible locations on the trail for the convenience of its users. The kiosks are located at the following areas:
- The Participark
- The Rotary Rest area near City Hall.
- Margaret Bowater Park North Side.
Virtual Trail Sponsor
As a virtual trail sponsor, your donation will contribute to the maintenance of a particular section of trail for one year. Your company name will appear when a website visitor moves the cursor over a particular section of trail on the map.
Community Fundraising Billboard
Used as a progress tracker for our fundraising campaign, this billboard will provide a “thermometer” to track our progress for our campaign goal: $250,000. Your company name and logo will be advertised as a “feature sponsor” on this billboard.
CBSDC Website
Increasing in popularity from our marketing initiatives, our website is a great way to promote your business. Our website provides information on our trail system, family membership, memorial program, volunteer recruitment, trail damage reporting, events/activities and an interactive trail map.
*All benefits are honoured for one year (with the exception of the obvious $10,000 level sponsorship). As a non-profit charitable organization receipts are issued for all donations.

Remember your loved one in the heart of the City.
As a non-profit. Charitable organization, fundraising is key to the sustainability of the organization and the trail system. The memorial donation program enables individuals and groups to memorialize veterans, colleagues and loved ones by means of purchasing infrastructure such as benches, plaques, bricks, and trees. Your gift to honor a loved one will also enable the organization to offset developmental costs associated with the beautification of the trail system and thus our community. The following is a list of memorial products we offer:
Memorial Trail Markers $350.00
Memorial trail markers are placed on cement cylinder forms and may placed anywhere along the trail. It’s a quiet reminder for your loved one.
Memorial Trees $500.00
Donors have a choice of several ornamental hardwood species such as Maple and Flowering Crab. Other species may be considered.
Memorial Benches $500.00
Made “in house”, the memorial bench may be placed at various locations on the trail. Existing benches can be memorialized along with new benches that are placed as required.
Memorial Picnic Tables $1500.00
There are a limited number of picnic table locations available. Please contact the CBSDC for more information.
