  • SPRING 2010 Land O’Lakes Tourism Association - by Ken Hook, LOLTA
    Regional Green Vision & Strategy Project SPRING By Anne Marie Young, County of Frontenac Local municipal and economic development organizations have joined forces to create a regional green vision and strategy that founding partners expect will position the Kingston- Frontenac-Lennox and Addington area as a global leader in energy and the environment. Frontenac County, the Kingston Area Economic Development Corporation, and the Frontenac Community Futures Development Corporation secured $60,000 from the Frontenac CFDC through the Eastern Ontario Development Program (EODP) and launched a Regional Green Vision and Strategy project to move the region forward on this front. The idea of building a regional effort emerged from a workshop held in Kingston in the spring of 2009, participants looked at the wind turbines then going up on Wolfe Island, the sustain- ability plans coming forward in Frontenac County and the City of Kingston, research taking place at our post-secondary education institutions, the development of a solar farm nearby, the continued development of SWITCH, and many other ‘green’ developments. It was realized that the region has the critical mass to become known as a green region and there is reason to capitalize on the opportunity. The Regional Green Vision and Strategy project is focused on bringing the region’s stake- holders together in a shared effort to establish awareness of this critical mass, attract attention outside the region, and encourage further activity within the region. Early in 2010, additional stakeholders will be invited and encouraged to become part of the green initiative. Looking for a New Business Opportunity? The Frontenac Stewardship Council, through Eastern Ontario Development funding from the Frontenac CFDC, is developing a business plan that explores the feasibility of a local busi- ness providing septic haulage from ‘water-access only’ properties in Frontenac County.

  • The Parthenon Cabin Guide
    www.wintergreenstudios.com | 613.273.8745 | [email protected] THE PARTHENON CABIN GUIDELINES www.wintergreenstudios.com | 613.273.8745 | [email protected] ABOUT THE PARTHENON The Parthenon is exquisitely primitive, located about 25 minutes from the main parking lot at Wintergreen. By 25 minutes we mean by foot! The hike is rugged in places, so pack as lightly as possible. There is no electricity or running water—but it is warm and cozy and the views of the marsh are lovely. Why is it called the Parthenon, you might be asking? Well, it started as a joke when someone quipped that since we were carrying in beautiful architectural salvage for the porch, along with bags and bags of concrete for the foundation, why not just carry in marble and make it out of stone? And so the “Parthenon” was born. (When the founder’s daughter was 4 years old, she asked why everyone laughed when they learned the cabin was called the Parthenon. When she was shown a photo of the Parthenon in Greece, she responded with, “My Mama’s Parthenon is better. It has a roof.”) The Parthenon is well-equipped with everything you should need for a few days/nights of “glamping”: a futon double bed (with fresh sheets), a table, a kitchen station with cooking essentials, and plenty of sanitizing wipes. There is a chamber pot in the cabin as well as a thunderbox overlooking the lake (well stocked with toilet paper), and a cooler for outdoor food storage (no ice). We recommend bringing ice packs to keep your food cool in the warmer months.

  • Chapter 2 – Cataraqui Source Protection Area
    Cataraqui Source Protection Area Assessment Report (June 2011) Chapter 2 – Cataraqui Source Protection Area 2.0 Introduction This chapter provides the reader with an overall perspective on the watersheds, physical geography, human geography, and Great Lakes aspects of the Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CSPA). For additional detail on these topics, the reader is invited to review the Watershed Characterization Report: Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CRCA, 2008) in Appendix ‘L-2’. The Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CSPA) is located at the eastern end of Lake Ontario and the beginning of the St. Lawrence River (Map 1-1). It includes a portion of the Bay of Quinte, Hay Bay, the southern portion of the Rideau Canal and the Thousand Islands of the St. Lawrence River. The region includes approximately 1,000 kilometres of Great Lakes shoreline (Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River, including the islands) and about 200 inland lakes. It covers the jurisdiction of the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority (CRCA), plus the municipality of Frontenac Islands (Howe and Wolfe Islands) and the waters up to the International Boundary between Canada and the United States of America (Map 1-2). The landscape of the CSPA is extremely varied. The central region is characterized by the exposed bedrock, lakes and woodlands of the Canadian Shield (Frontenac Axis), while the south and west consist mainly of the agricultural landscape of the limestone and clay plains (Map 2-1). In the east, the surficial geology is dominated by sand and gravel. The landscape is described in detail by Chapter 1 of the Watershed Characterization Report: Cataraqui Source Protection Area (CRCA, 2008) and it is illustrated by Figures 1-4 through 1-15 of that document.

    Promoting Environmental Stewardship through Gardens: A Case Study of Children’s Views of an Urban School Garden Program RENA UPITIS SCOTT HUGHES ANNA PETERSON Queen’s University This story contains a swear word. A word that makes its way into everyday conversation. Its use is completely taboo in schools—especially elementary schools. This word, used to add dramatic emphasis to an important point, is the F-bomb oF swear words: fucking. As in, “Don’t touch that fucking fence.” A group oF high school students was hanging out one evening in the yard oF a local public elementary school. The students came upon a small Journal of the Canadian Association for Curriculum Studies Volume 11 Number 1, 2013 Promoting Environmental Stewardship Through Gardens UPITIS, HUGHES, & PETERSON wooden Fence protecting a garden bed From potential damage during busy school day play times. The Fence was starting to rot, so the boys decided that they would tear away at it and bash it down, muttering, “Let’s trash that Fucking Fence.” The one boy—overheard by one of the parents at the school—stopped his Friends From the destruction by his strong directive: “I built that Fucking Fence. Leave it alone.” The parent who witnessed the near destruction oF the Fence was actively involved in the school garden program at the elementary school in question.
