Avonlea (2006 population 381) is a village in south-central Saskatchewan, Canada, approximately southwest of Regina. The village was named after the fictional town of Avonlea, Prince Edward Island in Lucy Maud Montgomery's novel ''Anne of Green Gables''. The television series Road to Avonlea is based on the book. ==Attractions== History of the area can be found at (Avonlea Heritage Museum ). A local creek of the same name flows past the town on the east side, heading north, and joins the Moose Jaw River near Rouleau. The picturesque Dirt Hills to the west are home to natural flora and fauna. Avonlea Dam was built on Avonlea Creek east of the town in 1963, which created Reg Watson Reservoir. The reservoir is the town's only water source. Dunnet Regional Park (named after a local physician) was built and opened on the west side of the reservoir in 1967. The park provides RV parks, camping, fishing, boating, a swimming pool, eight baseball fields and a golf course. Fish species in the lake include walleye, yellow perch, northern pike, white sucker and burbot. Walleye are liberally stocked. The Southern Rails Cooperative maintains its head office in the town. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Avonlea, Saskatchewan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
