Casino development unveiledBy Jennifer LangA new name, more slots, and

a 300-seat entertainment space are some of the changes in store for Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino when a multimillion dollar update is complete.

Great Canadian Gaming Corp. announced today it’s rebranding the former Cloverdale Raceway as Elements Casino, an “all-inclusive, full ser-vice gaming entertain-ment venue.”

Along with live entertainment, new dining areas, and more casino games – including 550 interac-tive slot machines – comes a commit-ment to the sport of standardbred horse racing, in keeping with the facility’s roots as a racetrack.

Th e $11 million overhaul is similar in scope to what Great Canadian spent re-branding its Coquitlam casino as the Hard Rock Casino Vancouver.

Elements Casino will off er up all the “elements” of a casino, along with live entertainment and dining options – attractions that don’t necessarily involve gambling, “which is what’s made River Rock and Hard Rock so successful,” said Chuck Keeling, vice president of stakeholder relations and respon-sible gaming for Great Canadian Gaming Corp., which has owned and operated the facility since

2004, when it re-opened as Fraser Downs following a $40 million redevelopment.

Last September, Great Canadian announced it had renewed its leasing option with B.C. Lottery Corporation to extend the term of its operating contract with Fraser Downs for another 10 years, pro-viding greater certainty in terms of

reinvestment.Figuring out what

amenities should be on off er, what cosmetic changes to make – and, crucially – wheth-er to change the name – was an “exhaustive exercise” that involved internal focus groups and a lot of soul-searching, according to Keeling.

In the end, “We thought it was impor-tant to rebrand with a name change because

we wanted to emphasize just how diff erent and signifi cant this was going to be,” he said. “We’re con-fi dent we’re going to get it right. We think people will be pretty excited.”

Today’s announcement sets out more details on what’s in store: there will be a 70-seat entertain-ment lounge along with a versatile entertainment space with a 300-seat capacity showcasing local and regional talent; new dining options that will include a buff et, lounge, and casual dining outlets; and the casino will off er more games such

as blackjack, roulette and a semi-private baccarat room.

Th e interior will be updated with wood, stone and tiles – contemporary touches – and the exterior will feature open spaces and vibrant colours.

Th e overall mix of amenities “won’t be dissimilar” to Cascades Casino in Langley City, but what will set Elements apart will be the horse racing, he said.

In 2014, a multi-year deal was agreed to by Great Canadian, which also operates Hastings Racecourse – home to thorough-bred horse racing – and B.C.’s standardbred and thoroughbred

sectors. Th e deal guarantees racing for fi ve more years, off ering stabil-ity for the industry in the short term.

Keeling said the provincial government allows the racing side of the operations a proportionate share of slot machine revenue.

“Th e higher the revenue for slot machines, the better it is for them,” he said.

Merging the racing staff of Fraser Downs and Hastings Racecourse is “something that has not been contemplated,” Keeling said.

“Th ey’re two diff erent entities. Two diff erent operations. Certainly, for the foreseeable future, it will

remain that way.”Keeling – who sold race pro-

grams as a kid at the Cloverdale Raceway founded by his grand-father – said he is excited on a personal level about what the redevelopment will bring.

“For someone that has as much history and sentiment vested in the place as I do, I’m really excited. I wish we were opening tomorrow, not six to seven months from now.”

Fraser Downs, including stan-dardbred racing (resuming Oct. 1), will remain fully operational during renovations, with Elements Casino opening toward the end of 2015.

Chuck Keeling

By Jennifer LangIt took him nearly nine hours, and his feet were

pretty sore by the end of it all, but on Sunday, Lib-eral candidate John Aldag managed to circle the federal riding of Cloverdale-Langley City on foot.

He logged nearly 47 kms in a combination run/walk in a bid to raise awareness about the new rid-ing, created through a boundary redistribution that comes into eff ect for the fall election.

Th e father of three planned to set out at 5 a.m. June 21, taking advantage of the long hours of daylight on the summer solstice in order to spend some time with his family once he was done.

He planned to follow major roads and streets, avoiding private property and the section of the new riding that follows along the Serpentine River between 176 Street and 68 Avenue.

Since earning the party’s nomination one year

ago, he’s visited more than 20,000 homes in the electoral district, and says he still encounters many people who are unaware that new federal riding boundaries in place. Concern about the high cost of living and housing is one of the top local issues for local voters, he said, along with the treatment of veterans, seniors issues, crime and safety, invest-ment in infrastructure, and the need for respon-sible and transparent government, he said.

GORD PARK PHOTOThe pilot of a hot air balloon was forced to make an emergency landing last Wednesday at Northview Golf Course. Originally headed for a school south of 64 Avenue, the wind caused the balloon to drift off course into a residential area. The pilot was able to guide it to safety, landing at the Cloverdale golf course. No injuries were reported.

Surprise landing

More shots fi redSurrey is averaging more than a

shooting every three days since a drug turf war started in early March.

On Sunday at about 1 a.m., Surrey Mounties received a number of calls of shots fi red in the area of 140 Street and 104 Avenue.

Th e police dog services, Air 1 he-licopter and general duty offi cers at-tended and bullet casings were found near 139 Street and 104 Avenue.

Th ere is no evidence of anything or anyone being struck. Witnesses said they saw a dark-coloured older-

model sports car with tinted windows speeding away from the scene.

It’s the 37th shooting in the last 105 days. Police say half the shootings since March 9 have been determined to be the result of a drug turf war over a dial-a-dope operation.

Mounties are asking that anyone who may have been in the area of where the latest shots were fi red to call the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, the special tip lLine for the shootings in the Delta/Surrey area at 604-915-6566 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Our recent story on the dismantling last month of one of Surrey’s oldest heritage buildings (“Heritage hall falls,” May 20), the Loyal Orange Lodge No. 1471 built in 1891, has drawn attention both at home here in Surrey, across the country and even across the globe.

Th e lodge – a rare surviving example of an early institutional building in Surrey – was relocated to Surrey Centre Cemetery when its original property near Five Corners was redeveloped. It sat for more than 20 years, but despite heritage protection was torn down because the rotten wooden building couldn’t be saved.

Th e Orange Order is a Protestant fraternal organization that has its roots in Northern Ireland, and played a large role in the history of Canada, where the order helped newcom-ers and settlers, organizing communities and benevolent activities.

Th e Loyal Orange Lodge No. 1471 was

instituted at Grey’s Corner in Langley, B.C., in 1871, with a membership of settlers from Langley and Surrey. Th e lodge moved to Sur-rey Centre in 1884, and the hall was con-structed in 1891.

Here’s a sample of the reaction to the story online at www.cloverdalereporter.com:

Lodges still exist in Canada. Th inking of you here in Ulster.

By Jennifer LangTh e B.C. Vintage Truck Mu-

seum, Surrey’s heritage railway and the city’s oldest church are a few of the Cloverdale highlights served up to visitors for this year’s Doors Open event.

Th e fourth annual festival on June 27 encourages residents to explore their home town by sam-pling culture, history, art and ar-chitecture, recreational facilities, and places of worship – enjoying free activities and taking guided tours.

Th irty-nine unique sites – many in Cloverdale, along with City Centre, Bear Creek, and New-ton – are participating by opening their doors to the public with free ad-mission for the day.

Historic Christ Church, built in 1884, and its heri-tage cemetery is one of the doors open sites in Cloverdale, along with a newer landmark – Fra-ser Downs Racetrack and Casino, opening up the barns on the backstretch, home of standardbred horse racing.

Other local attractions include the Surrey Ar-chives located in Surrey’s 1912 Municipal Hall at 17671 56 Avenue, where visitors can check out photos, maps, digital dis-plays, oral history inter-views and more.

Th e Tzu Chi Founda-tion’s Surrey Offi ce is an-other stop, as is Firehall No. 8 at 17572 57 Ave.

Th e Surrey Fire service began with the Cloverdale Volunteer Fire Brigade in 1928. Check out the historic engine and take a tour of the hall.

Over at the Surrey Museum, the Re-enactors who portray real-life Surrey pioneers will be on hand, and the museum’s cura-tor will off er a behind-the-scenes peek at the collections.

In Veteran’s Square, check out information booths from the Cloverdale Library, the Clover-dale Rec Centre, Surrey Little Th eatre, and the Surrey Histori-

cal Society, off ering free walking heritage walking tours at 11 a.m. or 2 p.m.

Across Highway 10 at 176A Street, the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society (17630 56 Ave.) will be inviting people to tour the replica Cloverdale Station and car barn. Th ere will be free speeder rides and hourly tours. (Note: reg-ular rates apply to the Interurban experience, departing at 10 a.m., 11:15, 12:30, 1:45 and 3 p.m.)

Step behind the scenes

By Jennifer LangWe’re all getting older – the

trick is to age well. A lifestyle show for adults of all ages is bringing a range of experts to Shannon Hall on June 27, off er-ing insight on everything from health and wellness and inheri-tance matters to hormone bal-ancing and natural treatments for fatigue.

Guest speakers include a fi -nancial expert, a pharmacist, naturopathic physician, legal expert and even a radio host – health professionals and local businesses – each sharing exper-tise on how to age with grace.

Th e Aging Gracefully Life-style Show is presented by Clo-verdale Pharmasave and Today’s Senior Newsmagazine. Both had

attended trade shows and gath-erings and decided to partner to off er something bigger in scale for Cloverdale and residents of neighbouring communities.

Cloverdale Pharmasave want-ed to reach those people who are not normally able to attend in-house seminars and clinics with health professionals, marketing manager Josephine Leonard said.

It’s the fi rst time they’ve orga-nized an event of this size – 33 exhibitors are taking part in the trade show side of the event, along with the guest speakers at what could be the fi rst of more events of this kind. “Each year we hope to grow,” Leonard said.

Th ere will be free makeovers, free hearing checks, demonstra-tions, door prizes and a roster

of guest speakers, who take the stage starting at 11:30 a.m.

Keynote speaker Mau-reen McGrath is the host of CKNW 980’s Sunday Night Sex Show. Her talk, “Fe-male Sexual Desire: What health, hormones and v-lovehas to do with it,” is at 1 p.m.

First up is Rick Singh, a Cer-tifi ed Professional Consultant from CRS Financial Group, he’ll speak on how best to plan when giving or receiving an inheri-tance, starting at 11:30 a.m.

Other speakers include Sarah Morrissette from Lorna Van-derhaeghe Health Solutions Inc.; Lyle Sunada, compounding pharmacist; Dr. Brian Bluvic, naturopathic physician at Vil-lage Health Clinic; and Rosalyn Manthorpe, president of Man-

thorpe Law Offi ces, speaking on planning for incapacity - power of attorney and health care rep-resentation agreement.

Th e show runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Shannon Hall, 6050 176 Street – the junction of Sur-rey Doors Open events at Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino and the B.C. Vintage Truck Mu-seum – both are welcoming the public for free tours and the lo-cation is a drop off for the free shuttle trolly on June 27.

Admission to Aging Grace-fully is free, but donations are gratefully accepted on behalf of the Canadian Cancer Society and Ending Violence Associa-tion of B.C.

The Re-enactors

Experts, exhibitors at lifestyle show

“A rose by any other name would smell as sweet”…words spoken by Shakespeare’s Juliet to imply that no matter what you called him, Romeo was still a Montague. But does this ring true for your vitamins and minerals? Defi nitely not!

First let’s take a look at rea-sons why a multivitamin can be useful to all of us. A multivitamin is a combination of both vitamins and minerals, sometimes with added phytonutrients. Minerals are elements that cannot be cre-ated nor destroyed; they are recy-cled from the earth, into plants, into animals or us, and back to the earth. Theoretically, we would be able to get all the minerals we need from our diet. How-ever, nowadays, soils are often depleted of their mineral content and not replenished by fertilizers thus the food that is being grown may also be defi cient in many minerals. Vitamins are nutrients which for the most part obtained from our diet. If the plants we are eating are grown under ideal conditions, then they are better

able to synthesize these vitamins, which are then consumed by us. We must also consider that vitamins can be damaged or lost as produce is being transported, stored or cooked. Also, today’s hectic lifestyle does not always allow us to cook a fresh meal that provides adequate essential nutrients. Thus, anybody may benefi t from taking a multi-vitamin to fi ll in any “holes” in their diet.

But, how do we choose a multivi-tamin? There are companies that have formulae directed towards the needs of dif-ferent genders and/or age groups. For example, a women’s formula may have more calcium for bone support or added cranberry ex-tract to help prevent urinary tract infections. A men’s formulation may contain added saw palmetto and lycopene for prostate health. Formulations targeted towards those over the age of 50 may

contain Coenzyme Q10 for heart support or lutein for eye health.

Beyond that, there are differ-ences between different brands in the exact form of each vitamin or mineral that is present. Many B

vitamins need to be in their active forms in order to be readi-ly used by the body. For example,5-meth-yltetrahydrofolate is the active form of folate that is readily used in the body. Similarly, methylco-balamin is the active form of vitamin B12. But many generic

drugstore brands will use the less expensive folic acid and cyanoco-balamin forms of folate and B12, respectively because they are less expensive to manufacture.

Minerals should be chelated (i.e., bound) to protein or amino acids in order to optimize their absorption. For example, mag-nesium which is often used for muscle relaxation is found in the oxide form in many generic drug-

store brands. The oxide form is not well-absorbed and thus instead of relaxing skeletal mus-cles and relieving cramping, it will more likely relax the muscles in the bowels and cause diarrhea. On the other hand, magnesium bisglycinate is much better absorbed into the bloodstream where it relaxes skeletal muscles instead of causing diarrhea.

Thus, not every bottle of vitamins or minerals is the same. Look for “professionals only” brands such as THORNE RESEARCH and METAGENICS®. These com-panies put all their research and manufacturing priorities in the purity and bioavailability of the ingredients to make sure the con-sumer is getting the most benefi t out of their supplements.

British Columbians are encouraged to plant bee-friendly plants and fl owers in their backyards and fl ower boxes this month. This will not only make their gardens fl ourish, but also help combat a growing global concern – diminishing bee colonies.

Bees are responsible for pollinating 30 per cent of the world’s crops and 90 per cent of our wild fl owers, bringing everything from broccoli to blueberries to almonds to our tables.

In addition to fruits and vegetables, bees also love various herbs like basil, oregano and thyme, all perfect for the burgeoning home chef and even for those with limited green space.

Flowers that draw bees include honeysuckle, sunfl owers and black-eyed Susans. Even the less industrious gardener can help make a diff erence by leaving dandelions, milkweed and goldenrod for bees to feed.

And here’s an added tip – bees have excellent colour vision. So planting a vivid array of native and heirloom plants and fl owers is the perfect way to brighten your outdoor space and attract these busy pollinators.

Planting bee friendly plants and fl owers is just one of the BC SPCA’s suggested acts of kindness featured in the year-long

Million Acts of Kindness campaign. It invites all animal lovers to join together to carry out a million acts of kindness for companion, farm and wild animals in 2015. Each week, the millionacts.ca website features a new act of kindness for animals - participants can choose to do one act or challenge themselves to do more. Every act makes an incredible diff erence for the animals.

Sign up now at millionacts.ca and share the link with your family and friends. If one kind act can change the life of

an animal forever, imagine what a million acts will do!

By Sheila ReynoldsSurrey school trustees voted

themselves a four per cent raise. Th ey say it’s justifi ed considering the workload involved in helping run the largest school district in the province.

Th e increase in the Surrey Board of Education’s annual re-muneration brings the seven trustees’ base pay rate to $32,000 apiece per year, up from $30,800 during the past year. Th e increase – voted on aft er a motion that was deferred in March was re-intro-duced and passed unanimously at Th ursday’s public board meet-ing – amounts to about $100 more per month and is eff ective July 1.

“If you took the total gover-nance cost divided by the number of students and worked it out on a per-student cost, we’re extremely low – probably the lowest,” said board of education chairperson Shawn Wilson.

“In reality, more students means more schools, more em-ployees, bigger budgets, more activities and more workload for seven trustees.”

Both the Vancouver and Co-quitlam school districts have nine trustees. Vancouver pays their

trustees less, but has two more, so their total wage payout equals Surrey’s at about $230,000 per year.

Coquitlam trustees are the highest paid in the Lower Main-land. With student enrolment of about 31,000 (Surrey’s is close to 70,000), the nine Coquitlam board members are each paid a base rate of $37,000, totalling ap-proximately $338,000 per year.

“We were willing to do the extra workload for seven trustees rather than add two more trustees,” Wil-son said. “Th e trustees all felt it was warranted and justifi ed…”

Th e Surrey board also changed the way it compensates the chair and vice-chair.

It used to be the chairperson and vice-chair would get an addi-tional $3,000 and $1,500, respec-tively, on top of the annual base rate. However, the June 18 motion says the chair will now receive an additional 15 per cent (amount-ing to $4,800 this year), while the vice-chair will get an extra seven-and-a-half per cent (amounting to $2,400).

Wilson said the formula should always have been percentage-based rather than a set amount, because as the base rate grew over

the years, the top-up remained stagnant.

Th e Surrey board reviews its remuneration each year, usually basing the rate on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Vancouver. According to Statistics Canada, between May 2014 and May 2015, Vancouver’s CPI rose one per cent.

Trustees had an assessment of trustee pay and responsibilities across the country done a few years ago to gage trustee pay in comparable school districts, but hadn’t acted on the recommenda-tions until this week.

“Th ey felt that $32,000 for a trustee for the workload in Surrey was reasonable compensation,” said Wilson.

Th e Surrey board actually cut its pay by $200 per year in 2013, but last year, increased it by $600 annually. Th en-trustee Charlene Dobie protested the raise in 2014, calling it a “slap in the face” to teachers who were in the midst of a strike. At Th ursday’s meet-ing, she questioned this year’s raise and took to Twitter to voice her disapproval, saying trustees “gave themselves a big pay raise tonight? Verbal only! Transpar-ency? Not!”

In search of Canadian authors - and an Upper Canada detourCanada is not my

native land, but it is my home,

one I’ve had the distinct pleasure and privilege of exploring from sea to shining sea.

In June, the Travel Media Association of Canada Annual Gener-al Meeting was held in Peterborough, the en-trance to the Kawarthas.

Th is was my opportu-nity to not only explore, understand, and snag a quick (envious) peek at central Ontario’s famous ‘cottage country’, but take a pre-conference detour to my childhood roots in Clarkson and Oakville.

“Come and stay with us before the confer-ence,” urged writing friends, Judy and Alex Eberspaecher. “Let’s see what’s left here of your childhood memories.”

In addition to out-standing hospital-ity, what did I fi nd? My old red-brick primary school, Clarkson Pub-lic, which was built in 1916, still stands fi rm. Remnants of old Town Line (now Winston Churchill Blvd) family farms where I picked

strawberries all sum-mer to earn my fi rst $25 second-hand bicycle cling determinedly to the landscape.

Th e Lower Middle Road house and gar-dens where my parents pioneered have been replaced by businesses and industry. Mother would be distressed at the vanished farm-land, but consoled (and amused as a Royalist) to know our road became Royal Windsor Drive.

Across the road from where our house stood was ‘the bush’. It was full of tall trees, marsh land, and wildfl owers. I par-ticularly remember all the Trilliums.

Sadly, it’s all been re-placed with charmless concrete and industry. So much for preserving Ontario ecology.

On my must-see list was Benares House. I knew it was near the home of Whitney Mil-lard, a school friend

whose mom had pub-lished the Party Line, a little paper for which my mother was a col-umnist. Author Mazo de la Roche had lived on the estate in 1927 while writing some of her 16 volume Whiteoaks of Jalna family saga series. I was keen to see if it had been preserved.

We were delighted to fi nd it intact and clearly well-maintained by the Museums of Missis-sauga. It’s an elegant

gingerbread-trimmed stone house surrounded tall trees which, accord-ing to the very notice-able birdsong, is a fa-vourite nesting place for the birds playing tag across the lush lawns. A few picnic tables en-courage visitors to relax and enjoy these peace-ful surroundings.

According to infor-mation, 95 per cent of the artifacts in the house belonged to four generations of the Har-ris family who origi-nally owned the house. In 1836 it was billed for sale as “an elegant stone house…well adapted for any gentleman’s family”.

We were disappoint-ed that tours were not available on the day we

your savings on automatic pilot, having at least 10 percent of every paycheck automatically deducted. Money you don’t see you won’t spend.

?2? Make a realistic projectory of your future household income and lifestyle and understand its implications for choosing the right property for you.Lenders want to see stability in employment and you generally need to show at least two years of steady income before you can be considered for a mortgage.

?3? This is not a Do-It-Yourself project: build a team of trust-ed professionals to guide you along.You need expert advice. The first person you should talk to is an accredited mortgage professional. These people are trained financial planners and understand the ev-er-changing mortgage market.

?4? Down payments, closing costs, moving expenses and ba-sic upgrades need to be under-stood to avoid nasty surprises.Th e size of your downpayment is key and, obviously, the bigger the better. You need a minimum of 5 percent of the purchase price and anything less than 20 percent will require you to pay a hefty CMHC mortgage loan insurance premium, which is frequently added to the mortgage principal and amortized

over the life of the mortgage as part of the regular monthly pay-ment. You can expect to pay from 1.5-to-4 percent of the purchase price of your home up front in closing costs. Th ese costs include legal fees, appraisals, property transfer tax, HST (where applicable) on new properties, home and title insur-ance, mortgage life insurance and prepaid property tax and utility adjustments.

?5? Test drive your monthly housing payments to learn how much you can truly afford.Aff ordability is not about how much credit you can qualify for, but how much you can reasonably tolerate given your current and future income, stability, lifestyle and budget. Th e formal qualifi cation guidelines used by lenders are two-fold: 1) your housing costs must be no more than 32 percent of your gross (pre-tax) household income; and, 2) your housing costs plus all other debt servicing must be no more than 40 percent of your gross income. Lenders defi ne housing costs as mortgage payments, property tax-es, condo fees (if any) and heating costs. In your planning, you should also calculate other utilities, ongo-

ing maintenance, home insurance and unexpected repairs. Taking all of these costs into consideration, the 32 percent and 40 percent guidelines might well put an unac-ceptable crimp in your lifestyle.Keep in mind that this is not a normal interest rate environment. Don’t over-extend because there is a good chance interest rates will be higher when your term is up. Have your broker do the math on what a doubling of interest rates fi ve years from now would do to your monthly payment.

1. I would like to acknowledge and thank the many mortgage professionals of Dominion Lending Centres who made contributions to this report. 2. Lenders now also assess your qualifi cation compliance if interest rates were to rise meaningfully, a likely scenario in this low interest rate environment.

were there.Instead we headed back along the

Lakeshore Highway for an excellent lunch at Piazza Bistro, 94 George St., Oakville.

With my walk down memory lane satisfactorily accomplished, Alex, Judy, and I set off on the 2-hour drive for Peterborough, an easy-to-navigate industrial-style city 125 kms north-east of Toronto.

Like most conferences, eating fea-tured prominently, but courtesy (of-ten lacking in cities) has to be noted. Imagine my surprise when returning to my Holiday Inn room before lunch one day to fi nd a handwritten note (on cheerful owl-embossed notepa-per) on the bathroom counter.

It said: “Welcome home! I noticed you are low on toothpaste. Please ac-cept a new tube complimentary to our hotel. Have a great day! Maya (House-keeping)”. Little things mean a lot – particularly when travelling.

Young Peterborough entrepreneurs are repurposing many historic stone buildings for coff ee shops and inti-mate restaurants.

Peterborough is also home to a plethora of brew pubs. Despite not being a beer drinker, I tagged along on the aft ernoon tour. I gained beer knowledge, but abandoned much beer in the (large) tasting glasses – to the delight of my Twitter @YouTravel followers!

For pre and post tours I continued my focus on literary history, plus pho-tography, and birding. Th at made two out three I knew something about. Birding is one of the top global travel

passions. It was time for me to fi nd out why. Th anks to Orillia birder, photographer, and conservationist, Arni Stinnissen, I’m now better in-formed – plus I (unsurprised) need a longer Nikon lens. Check Arni’s work at www.arniworks.com. Birder or not, you’ll be enchanted.

To explore Lakefi eld on the shores of Lake Katchewanooka in the Kawar-thas, you’ll need a car – and bug spray. Yes, the plentiful water breeds mosquitoes, and ticks are around, but don’t be deterred.

Nineteenth century Upper Canada pioneering authors and naturalists like Catharine Parr Traill, and her sis-ters, Agnes Strickland, Jane Margaret Strickland, and Susanna Moodie were shocked at the contrast to their comfy English village life.

However, they survived, thrived, and recorded the natural history of the area in words and art for posterity. You can do it, too!

Th anks to a local guide we located the land (now reclaimed by nature) that Parr, her husband and sisters, had homesteaded on. We read their detailed, oft en humorous, accounts in the archives of Trent University, and admired the elegant, detailed draw-ings of plants, and wildfl owers the sis-ters encountered.

Since clearing ground and build-ing cabins in the woods is no longer encouraged we were comfortable at Th e Village Inn in Lakefi eld, and were pleased with our dining choices on the main street.

Th ings to include in your Peterbor-ough and Th e Kawarthas itinerary:

Books stores: particularly the Lakefi eld Station Book Store.

Museums: check the weaving at Lang Pioneer-ing Village Museum.

Th e Peterborough Lift Lock on the Trent Can-ada. Th e world’s highest dual hydraulic boat lift s. Take the boat, of course!
