  • 2009 Sustainable Gala Catalogue
    August 27, 2009 • Camp Tapawingo WPSHC Foundation Creating a Sustainable Gala When we first began planning tonight’s gala, the world was a different place. George Bush presided as President of the United States and Canada’s Governor General was in the midst of the unenviable task of determining who should govern our country. Despite the turmoil or maybe because of it, our Committee wanted to create a summer gala that offered comfort. At our first meeting of the Gala Committee, we agreed the meal would offer local food. An old fashion picnic began to take form with Camp Tapawingo as the logical location. For us, the seed of tonight’s Sustainable Gala was informed by years of memories of summer’s best offerings. My cottage is 10 minutes away (by car) from the Carling Market, by most standards a humble spot. Maybe 15 vendors at the max but those vendors offer a plethora of foods. I’m also fortunate enough to cottage 10 minutes (by bicycle or boat) from one of the last commercial fishermen on the Bay. This simple fact makes entertaining summer guests a delightful affair. Our cottage dinner parties are invariably an offering of local white fish complemented by Carling Market vegetables and preserves. The meal culminates in a grand finale of one of my homemade pies. My mum was a terrific pie maker, savoury and sweet. I’ve inherited both her ability to create pies and her good sense to serve them often ensuring they become one of our cottage staples. A similar thread ran through my interviews with creators of tonight’s Parry Sound Tart Auction, the tradition of one generation adopting the joys of pie making from the other.

  • Sofia Coppola and the Significance of an Appealing Aesthetic
    SOFIA COPPOLA AND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF AN APPEALING AESTHETIC by LEILA OZERAN A THESIS Presented to the Department of Cinema Studies and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2016 An Abstract of the Thesis of Leila Ozeran for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Cinema Studies to be taken June 2016 Title: Sofia Coppola and the Significance of an Appealing Aesthetic Approved: r--~ ~ Professor Priscilla Pena Ovalle This thesis grew out of an interest in the films of female directors, producers, and writers and the substantially lower opportunities for such filmmakers in Hollywood and Independent film. The particular look and atmosphere which Sofia Coppola is able to compose in her five films is a point of interest and a viable course of study. This project uses her fifth and latest film, Bling Ring (2013), to showcase Coppola's merits as a filmmaker at the intersection of box office and critical appeal. I first describe the current filmmaking landscape in terms of gender. Using studies by Dr. Martha Lauzen from San Diego State University and the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media to illustrate the statistical lack of a female presence in creative film roles and also why it is important to have women represented in above-the-line positions. Then I used close readings of Bling Ring to analyze formal aspects of Sofia Coppola's filmmaking style namely her use of distinct color palettes, provocative soundtracks, car shots, and tableaus. Third and lastly I went on to describe the sociocultural aspects of Coppola's interpretation of the "Sling Ring." The way the film explores the relationships between characters, portrays parents as absent or misguided, and through film form shows the pervasiveness of celebrity culture, Sofia Coppola has given Bling Ring has a central ii message, substance, and meaning: glamorous contemporary celebrity culture can have dangerous consequences on unchecked youth.

  • A Family Christmas Devotional
    A FAMILY CHRISTMAS DEVOTIONAL 1 A devotional focused on the events of 2020 2 What a year … While it probably seems a little cliche at this point, we recognize that 2020 has been a year unlike any in recent memory. From a global pandemic, to civic unrest, to an extremely contentious election season, it has often seemed like Hell must be throwing everything at us (including the kitchen sink). We are all worn and weary, and in need of some rest and hope. Unfortunately, the holidays are often anything but restful, aren’t they? If anything, the days are filled with nonstop to-do’s, activities, more stress, and the rush to “fit everything in.” For many of us, it can feel like we’re just barely making it to New Year’s alive. And in the midst of the frenzy and stress, we often miss what this season is truly all about. Does the true meaning of Christmas even matter anymore? Are we just running around all month for silly, old-fashioned traditions? Most of us probably know that all of this began with a story in the Bible, but how do we know we can even trust that anymore? And if we can’t trust it, then why are we adding more stress and busyness at the end of a long, stressful year? If you’ve ever wondered in your own spirit if all of this really matters, don’t worry; you’re not alone! All of the questions are understandable – especially this year – but especially because of how stressful this year has been, we want to help point you and your loved ones back to the true meaning of Christmas.
