As mentioned in the introduction, this tour of the first European settlers in Scarborough, Ontario is a great insight into the historical significance of various individuals who helped shape Scarborough into what it is today. The basic goal for this tour is to provide a general understanding of every point of interest in a way that all participants can learn and understand it. The target audience for this tour has a wide range, ranging from teenagers in elementary school to adults and seniors. As there is no specific age group this tour is meant for, the goal is that this educational activity will introduce the topic and engage the participants to complete further research on their own. Finally, this tour can be a way for participants to go to a different part of the city to view local heritage spots they would not have visited otherwise, as well as getting outside and exploring nature.
