[English] New Liskeard was, and still is, well known for its “Mile of Beach” that runs along the north shore of Lake Temiskaming. The Beach in the early days had a grand-stand, racetrack, dance pavilion, confectionary booth and ball parks. The racetrack was part of the circuit and on Sunday afternoons it was the place to be.

[Français] Aujourd'hui comme hier New Liskeard est reconnu pour sa « plage d'un mille de long » qui longe le lac Témiscamingue. Cette plage, aux jours passés, comprenait une tribune, une piste de course, un pavillon de danse, un dépanneur et des terrains de balle. Les courses faisaient partie d'un circuit et personne n'aurait voulu manquer les courses de sulky qui avaient lieu le dimanche après-midi.
