Dear Editor:

It's shocking and extremely upsetting! How is it that I walked into my favourite restaurant on Tuesday, sat down, ordered lunch, and then was approached by another regular customer carrying a petition against the closure of the place the next day? Pardon? 

Closing down?  Excuse me? The next day?

I have been a patron of Eagle Creek (Inn on the Green) for almost twenty years. The service, food, atmosphere and setting have always been excellent.  What's going on? Why was this kept a secret? Was the "city" making sure the public had no time to take any action against the closure?  Of all times of the year, why would the city close the restaurant during the busiest season?

It's shocking and extremely upsetting!

I wish all the amazing employees the best of luck and, along with countless others, will miss them very much.
