In Issue 654, although we weren’t “blessed” with a foot of snow like our counterparts in the GTA - the staples of winter: cold, snow and more cold, are weaving icy tapestries along the shoreline, a few of these images were recently, safely captured and are highlighted in this week's photo story...
In Issue 653, pandemic services are at the forefront this week as vaccine clinics, child care, electricity rate relief, small business grants and extending shelter for the homeless are the topics making headlines, and in our photo story, we offer a quieter moment to reflect on the last six months of 2021...
In Issue 652, we reflect on the first sixth months of 2021 as we welcome 2022 and enter another phase of the Road Map to Reopen the province - Step Two - it is a backwards phase unfortunately, as the Omnicron variant makes it self known. If anyone else is feeling like they are stuck in a reality similar to the movie Ground Hog Day know you aren’t alone…stay safe and healthy everyone.
In Issue 650, we find ourselves but three sleeps away from what is for many the most anticipated day of the year - Dec. 25! May the day, as well as the coming New Year, be filled with hope, joy, love and peace...
In Issue 649, there is a thread of kindness and generosity emerging in our stories this week. The Bayfield Fire Department and the Bayfield Optimist Club making an extra effort to support the Bayfield Area Food Bank and the Bayfield Lions’ Club members working together to brighten the holidays for the eldest in our community are but three examples. The spirit of the season is alive and well, may we all carry it into 2022 and beyond...
In Issue 648, we reflect on the fact that there are only 18 days remaining until Christmas Day - still plenty of time to seek out the perfect gift, be it at the Outdoor Market on Bayfield’s Main Street, or at the Hopped up Holiday Market at River Road Brewery. If charitable giving is more your style consideration may be given to the Bayfield Food Bank or Bayfield Forgotten Felines in honor of someone special. Even our photo story offers up some shopping ideas as the Photography Club of Bayfield membership has an exhibit and sale happening now at the Goderich Co-op Gallery and we’ve got a sneak peek at some of their offerings...
