    The Marilyn Bell Monument at Clover Point Park honours Canadian long-distance swimmer Marilyn Bell. In 1954, at just sixteen years old, she became the first person to swim across Lake Ontario, completing the nearly 52-kilometre crossing between Youngstown, New York, and Toronto. The monument marks the starting point of a commemorative swim route and celebrates one of Canada’s most remarkable endurance achievements.
