Innisfil is a town located on the western shore of Lake Simcoe in Simcoe County, immediately south of Barrie and 80 kilometres north of Toronto. It has historically been a rural area, but growth in the Barrie area and the Greater Toronto Area has meant greater residential development in Innisfil. Innisfil’s first school was built in Stroud in 1838 when the community was known as Meyers Corners. Later the first church (Methodist) was built when the community was known as Victoria. The town hall and a fire station once occupied the building that is still located at Yonge Street and Victoria.
