Historic
Attractions & Museums - Gambo
The late Premier Joey Smallwood was born here and
there's a lookout on Route 1, appropriately called,
Joey's Lookout,
that provides a great view of the town. Down in the town there's a statue of
Joey, and the Smallwood Interpretation Centre devoted to his life and work.
Logging used to be the main industry here, but a major fire in the early 1960s
devastated the forests. The area is still famous for its red pine groves.
