Hillcrest, Norfolk County, Ontario  Hillcrest is a hamlet in Norfolk County, Ontario, Canada that is in between Bill's Corners and the town of Simcoe. Hillcrest's earliest known inhabitants, from around the year 1000 until approximately 300–350 years later, were the Algonquin nation. They were noted flint-workers and evidence of their skill in crafting arrowheads is still to be found in open worked field areas surrounding the village. The next wave of inhabitants were the Attawandaron nation, the Neutrals, who occupied the region from about 1350 until their absorption by the Iroquois in the year 1651. The last significant native nation to occupy the area was the Mississaugas. In 2001, Haldimand-Norfolk was dissolved into two separate single-tier counties. Hillcrest became part of the newly formed County of Norfolk. A soccer field is found within the boundaries of the community; it received a $15,000 stimulus package from the Simcoe Lions Club on April 7, 2013. Builders plan to use this money for a pavilion in order to enhance property values. Youth leagues generally use the field for its state of the art bleachers and close proximity to residential neighbourhoods. Adult amateur leagues typically do not use this field; with the exception of the Western Ontario Soccer League. Individuals and families are granted unrestricted access to use the soccer field during the autumn months. However, the local climate prevents its use in the winter months due to ice accumulating in the bleachers and heavy snow piling up into the soccer field. During the 1950s and 1960s, Hillcrest was the home of a dance club that played country and western tunes for people to do slow dances to. The nearest elementary school is Elgin Avenue Public School, the nearest secular high school is Simcoe Composite School, and the nearest faith-based high school is Holy Trinity Catholic High School. The hamlet is located southeast of Nixon and northwest of Port Dover and is centred on "Hillcrest Road" which is the site of the former Norfolk Board of Education building. This road intersects with Ontario Highway 3 and Regional Road 1 while in Hillcrest. Hillcrest is also the home of a charity which helps people acquire wheelchairs called the "Who Did It Club" which was founded by war veterans and is currently maintained by civilian volunteers from the local area. During the winter months (late November through early April), Hillcrest becomes a haven for snowmobile users.
