Winners tied At exactly noon Friday, two of The Auroran’s telephone lines lit up. The editor answered one, the receptionist the other. Both callers identified last week’s front page picture contest as being “reversed” and both were assured they were the first caller, according to the rules set out. So both get a non-alcoholic dinner for two at Jonathan’s, since it would be rude to call one back and say they lost when, in fact, they did- n’t. Winners were Alvin Thompson and Vicki MacNeil. Why the reversed picture? Well, since the photo was taken “from the street”, (a clue to the answer) the reflection in the window of the store across the road revealed backward lettering. The editor decided if it ran the way it was taken, it would “look wrong”, so the production department reversed the picture, making the lettering readable.

  • Ontario Golf Awareness Day
    Ontario Golf Awareness Day Photo credits: Denis Drever Ontario Golf Awareness Day April 20th, 2011 The Ontario Allied Golf Association (OAGA) kicked off the golf season with a visit to Queen’s Park on April 20th. This was OAGA’s first-ever full lobby day at Queen’s Park, so the visit was designed to give Members of Provincial Parliament (MPPs) and their staff a proper introduction to the golf Industry in Ontario. The day emphasized the size and scope of golf in Ontario- it’s the most popular sport, contributing about 1% of the province’s GDP – and also underlined the responsible role that golf plays in protecting Ontario’s environment and working to make Ontario a better place. The day featured a breakfast roundtable on small business issues, a press conference in the Queen’s Park media studio, a legislative reception, and 30 meetings throughout the day. The Issue Ontario golf industry representatives went to Toronto to meet with Ministers and MPPs concerning the size and scope of the golf industry in Ontario, particularly in regards to the provincial economy. Through the individual contribution of many small businesses, the sport is responsible for more than $4.3 billion of Ontario’s GDP. Golf creates $11.5 billion in direct, indirect, and induced spending in the province and the industry is responsible for over 123,000 jobs and $1.2 billion in taxes paid to all levels of government. It is important that government decision makers be made aware of the fact that Ontario’s golf courses are leaders in environmentally sustainable golf course operations, and are constantly researching technologies and methods to reduce their environmental impact, having spent more than $1.2 million in recent years to research more environmentally sustainable practices.
