CONDITIONS WERE JUST ABOUT PERFECT for a relaxedouting last Sunday afternoon and the Island Museumgrounds provided an ideal locale in which to enjoy the sunnysky and balmy breezes.

As always, this year’s annual Heritage Tea Day brought peopleout to tour the historic buildings and artifacts, see the

changes that have been made, listen to live music and – themain event, we think – enjoy eating delicious pie! That’sright! Pie! There were lots of aromatic flavours from which tochoose, and at the end of the day, not one slice was left, exceptperhaps a few crumbs.

Most people eventually gravitated to the shade and a ‘sitdown’ offered by the Museum’s new tent, to take in the musicprovided by Mike Cormierand Friends, minus Mike,who regretfully was unableto make it to play with hisgroup. His friends seemedto manage though and wethink everyone enjoyedtheir day.

CONGRATULATIONS TO BRIAN READ (centre), who wasrecognized for his outstanding commitment to the ‘Ride ForSight’ at this year’s Northern Ontario event last weekend atStokley Creek. This year’s ride raised over $24,000 for thefight against blindness.

Brian has been collecting pledges and taking part in ‘RideFor Sights” all across Ontario for 31 consecutive years. He isshown here with two of the ‘Ride For Sight’ organizers, whopresented him with a Stanley tool kit and a High Miler ‘RideFor Sight’ mug.

The ‘Ride For Sight’ benefits the Foundation Fighting Blind-ness, which leads the fight against blindness by advancingretinal disease research, education and public awareness.Brian was quick to express his appreciation and thanks to allthe people who have pledged and supported his rides overthe past 31 years. “It’s not done yet though!” he quipped.

Knowing how dedicated Brian is to this worthy cause, par-don the poor pun, but we could see this recognition coming!

Well done, Brian!

WE HAVE EXPANDED OUR BABY SECTION

In the Event ofa Postal Work Disruption

You can still get a copyof the Island Clippingsat some of our regular“retail” outlets, includ-ing the Island Market, Gardiner’s Corner,Kent’s Corner, Kentvale Home Hard-ware, and in front ofthe Hilton Beach PostOffice, at no chargefor the duration of thework outage.

An Important AnnouncementAbout Island Clippings Drop BoxesWe will no longer be making regularly-scheduled pick-upsfrom our Drop Boxes. In other words, we’ll still be pickingthings up – we just won’t be doing it regularly as part of ourproduction schedule for each week’s issue.

Until now, every Tuesday at or around noon, we’d have tomake a trip around the Island to pick up contents for classi-fied ads or announcements – things that we mostly publishfor free as a community service. That’s actually a triple costto us.

Alternatively, we’ve tried calling the host locations and hav-ing someone check the box and read the contents to us. Thathasn’t been much of a solution either, and an imposition onthe host’s kindness when they’re busy doing their own jobs.

If you have something that you want to have included in thatweek’s issue, you can still place your ad or announcement:

By Email to: [email protected]

By Phone: 705 246-1635 from 9 am – 5 pmMonday to Friday or

By Mail to RR 1, Hilton Beach, Ontario P0R 1G0

Our Drop Boxes are located at Gardiner’s Corner (formerlyAmbeault’s) in Richards Landing, Kent’s Corner and theHilton Beach Waterfront Centre, in front of the Post Office.

Deadline for display ads is Monday at 3 pm.Deadline for classifieds is Tuesday at noon.

Otherthan personal for sale ads (please limit three items) the announce-ment must be of value to the community. We reserve the right todecide if the ad is of service to the community. Please identifyyourself when sending in a classified or your ad will not be pub-lished.

We reserve the right to determine if a fee is required.We reserve the right to edit down to 50 words or less.

Business or commercial ads, including those placed by individu-als do not qualify as Classified ad or Public Service Announce-

ments. Such advertising must be via display advertising, governedby our published rates in effect at that time.Ads or announcements will appear in one issue, but may be re-peated, to a maximum of three weeks (space permitting). Adver-tiser must resubmit ad each week. To ensure space for everyone,please limit your content to amaximum of 50 words.
