OVER THE BACK FENCE

One of my favourite shows on television is The Amazing Race Canada. I’m interested in the participants and how they manage to navigate across our country. And, from bungie jumping and rock climbing to scooping kangaroo poop and solving puzzles, the challenges put them to the test. So imagine my excitement when I found out they were shooting a segment of the show right here in Buckhorn! I saw the camera crane by the lock ... and then saw the infamous pit stop mat on the other side. My friend, Cindy, is also a big fan and we just happened to be out together that day. After a quick chat with one of the production staff that confirmed our suspicions, we parked our butts at a picnic table out of camera range and watched some of the participants arrive. Oh ... and our lips are sealed! I used to work at CBC Sports and spent a lot of time around television production. So I had an idea of the hours it takes to put a show together. There’s a lot of sitting around waiting and, in the case of The Amazing Race,

it was indeed that. What takes hours is reduced to a one hour show. Patience is a real virtue! They filmed the show in May ... on a breezy, chilly day. I’m sure the producers scheduled what they thought would be a warm time of year! Welcome to the Kawarthas! Now the countdown is on for the show to air. It’s coming on Tuesday, August 11 at 9pm on CTV (next day on Crave). In Buckhorn, there’s a watch party at Ode’naang Park on Lakehurst Road! At 8pm at the park, you can visit with the Ontario Turtle Conservation Centre ambassador turtles (the turtles are featured in the show as well). So bring your lawn chair or blanket and join us for the live viewing at the park! And it’s not just Buckhorn in the show. The Race stopped in Peterborough and Bobcaygeon as well. That’s where the challenges took place and, from the episode promo, it looks like the participants had a great time! It’s a real treat that our area is going to be featured on this national stage. We deserve it! So buckle up and enjoy! editor@thepromoter.ca

City Hall PROVINCE TAKES A STEP TOWARD RECONCILIATION

The Ontario government is investing $7 million through the Indian Residential School Community Engagement Fund (IRSCEF) to support communityled healing, commemoration and initiatives that honour missing children, Survivors, families and communities affected by the Residential School System. The fund provides up to $250,000 to eligible Indigenous communities and organizations to support engagement, public education and research activities that address the impacts of the Residential School System. “The voices and priorities of Indigenous communities continue to guide our approach as we advance meaningful reconciliation in Ontario and support the sacred work of healing, truth-telling and commemoration,” said Greg Rickford, Minister of Indigenous Affairs and First Nations Economic Reconciliation. “We remain committed to working in partnership with communities to support Indigenousled initiatives that honour Survivors, the children who never returned home, their families and communities.” Among other initiatives, the fund can be used to support ceremonies, monuments, healing gardens, interpretive displays and commemorative plaques that foster opportunities for reflection, remembrance and storytelling. IRSCEF funding also continues to support community engagement, mental health and addictions help, staffing and research activities. As Indigenous communities continue their efforts to commemorate and document Residential Schools, Ontario remains committed to advancing meaningful reconciliation by ensuring community resources reflect these priorities. Funding applications for the IRSCEF are open until September 16, 2026. Visit ontario.ca for more details about the funding.

ARTIFACT COLLECTION

The City of Kawartha Lakes has launched a new online artifact collection. It provides residents, researchers, students, and history enthusiasts with unprecedented access to a growing catalogue of artifacts that help tell the story of our community. From everyday objects to items that reflect significant moments in the region’s history, the collection offers a glimpse into the lives, industries, and traditions that have shaped this area over generations. By making these artifacts available online, Kawartha Lakes is increasing public access to its heritage collections while supporting education, research, and community engagement. “These artifacts are more than historical objects, they are pieces of our shared story,” said Laura Love, Economic Development Officer – Curatorial Services. “The collection is held in trust for the people of Kawartha Lakes. Making it accessible online helps ensure that our community’s history can be discovered, appreciated, and preserved for the future.” The online collection represents an important milestone in the City’s ongoing efforts to preserve and share local heritage. While the initial launch includes a selection of 250 artifacts, work continues behind the scenes to document, photograph, and digitize additional items from the collection. Kawartha Lakes remains committed to expanding public access and sharing more of the stories that make Kawartha Lakes unique.

August 7, 2026 - The Kawartha Promoter Community News

Everyone is invited to visit the online portal regularly, as new artifacts and historical records will be added over time.

The launch reflects the dedication of staff, volunteers, heritage professionals, and community supporters who have worked to preserve these collections and make them available to the public.

TIMELY THEME FOR ANNUAL EXHIBITION

Submitted by Loretta Kingston

Kawartha Art Gallery has unveiled the theme for its 2026 Annual Juried Exhibition, Voices & Visibility: Women, Art, and Political Change, inviting artists from across Ontario to explore the evolving relationship between democracy, participation, and the role of women in shaping communities through creative expression. More than an annual juried exhibition, Voices & Visibility marks an important evolution for Kawartha Art Gallery. As the Gallery enters a new chapter, it is expanding its curatorial vision through exhibitions that empower artists to engage with contemporary issues, encourage meaningful public dialogue, and demonstrate the power of art to connect communities. Running from October 7 to December 19, 2026, the exhibition invites artists to interpret themes of democracy, advocacy, leadership, identity, protest, belonging, representation, human rights, and community engagement through painting, sculpture, photography, fibre art, digital media, and other artistic disciplines. Artists are encouraged to draw from personal experience, historical events, contemporary issues, or imagined futures to create work that inspires reflection and conversation. “Artists have long understood the transformative power of creative expression, and science is now affirming what they have known for generations” says Gallery Executive Director, Susan Taylor. “A growing body of research demonstrates that participation in the arts can improve mental health, reduce loneliness, strengthen social connection, and enhance overall well-being. This year’s Annual Juried Exhibition reflects that evidence, inviting visitors to experience art not only as a form of creative expression, but as a catalyst for connection, understanding, and meaningful community dialogue.” The exhibition also builds on the momentum created by the Gallery’s recent Empty Seats exhibition and community discussion, which demonstrated the community’s appetite for thoughtful conversations about civic participation and representation. Voices & Visibility broadens that conversation by inviting

fundraising event in 1978 to help pay for the mortgage on the original buildings and land. Today, the show is known as one of the country’s premier events and one of the Top 100 Festivals & Events in Ontario. Organizer Meghan Arnott says, “It’s hard to believe this event is heading into its 50th year! I think there are several factors that contribute to that success. It’s the quality of artists we’re lucky to have at this show, the unique facility both indoors and out, our Amateur Art Competition, art activities for the kids and live music that fits the venue. We’ve found that visitors return every year to see what’s new and keep supporting the Buckhorn Community Centre.” This year’s Special Exhibit, curated by a committee of artists, is a solo show of paintings by the late Bobcaygeon artist David Foyn. Artist Michael Dumas, who has been instrumental in the success of the Buckhorn Festival of the Arts since its inception, says, “As a longtime participant and volunteer with the Art Festival, it is most fitting to honour David in this way. His fascination with the Canadian landscape, particularly the partnership of rocks and water, shines through in his body of acrylic paintings. This is only the second time that the Special Exhibit has honoured an artist posthumously.” Admission is by donation. Free parking is available with a free shuttle to the BCC from the upper parking lot. You can see a list of 2026 Exhibition Arts and find out more at buckhorncommunitycentre.com.

METEOR WATCHING

By Deb Crossen

As most of you know, my late husband, John, was an amateur astronomer and owner of the Buckhorn Observatory for 12 years. During that time, we hosted hundreds of people every year to show them the wonders of our beautiful Kawartha night sky. One of John’s favourite astronomical events was the Perseid Meteor Shower ... when you could sit on a deck chair and look up to see the remnants of Comet

109/P Swift-Tuttle streak across the sky. You don’t need a telescope, just patience and a clear night. Scientifically, here’s how they come to be. The earth passes through the trail of material left over as the comet streaks on its orbit of the sun. Small particles of dust and rocks burn up through or atmosphere, creating meteors that cross the sky. They’re named the Perseids because of the location from which the meteors appear to be coming – in this case the constellation Perseus. Perseus is located in our northern sky, near the constellation Casseopia, but the meteors can be seen from all directions. The 2026 Perseid meteor shower peaks overnight on August 12 to 13. Conditions will be ideal because the peak coincides with a new moon, providing completely dark skies. Experts say we can expect to see up to 50 to 100 fast, bright shooting stars per hour. Head out somewhere away from lights or turn the lights off at the cottage and pull up a chair. I’ll be on my deck with blanket, bevvy and snacks, remembering those wonderful nights spent with my love watching Mother Nature at her best. Enjoy!

RBC GRANT SUPPORTS THE RMH ENVIRONMENT

Submitted by Kim Coulter

In the operating rooms at Ross Memorial Hospital, air is subject to precision monitoring so that humidity doesn’t compromise infection prevention safety standards. In other spaces, negative pressure must be maintained to prevent the spread of airborne germs. From the newest areas of the Ross (built in 2010) to the oldest (built in 1960), care is taken to keep facilities running as safely and effectively as possible. This complex process is becoming more efficient thanks to the RBC Foundation Community Spaces Grant. This welcome support is enabling Ross

Memorial to execute a key component of its Energy Conservation and Demand Management Plan. Recently, Devinder Gill of RBC visited the Ross to celebrate the hospital’s Building Automation System (BAS) and HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) optimization project. The RBC Foundation Community Spaces Grant provides support for retrofits, repairs, or upgrades to existing public community buildings, as well as construction of new public spaces, focusing on improving environmental sustainability and accessibility. “Healthy communities start with healthy infrastructure, and Ross Memorial Hospital is an example of what that looks like in practice,” said Devinder Gill, RBC Regional President for Ontario North and East. “Through the RBC Foundation Community Spaces Grant, we’re proud to support Ross Memorial’s vision of a hospital that is as responsible to the environment as it is dedicated to its patients.” By automating and controlling water pumps and fans to slowdown during low demand times, the hospital will reduce energy consumption and extend the life of the hospital’s facility support systems. “Our HVAC Building Automation System project

is designed to enhance environmental quality, operation reliability, and energy performance across Ross Memorial,” said Veronica Nelson, Ross Memorial Hospital President and CEO. “By modernizing control strategies in smart temperature management, demandbased ventilation and reduced equipment runtime, we improve conditions for patients, staff, and visitors, while lowering energy consumption and extending equipment lifespan.” Hospitals are significant energy consumers. As part of its commitment to be a good neighbour and a leader in environmental stewardship, the RMH Energy Conservation and Demand Management Plan includes transformative energy performance goals: a 25% reduction in energy intensity; a 30% cut in greenhouse gas emissions; and a 5% decrease in potable water use by 2028.

“The generous support we are receiving through the RBC Foundation Community Spaces Grant will help the Ross prioritize energy and water management at the hospital, aligning with its goals for clinical performance, financial resilience, and environmental leadership,” said Erin Coons, RMH Foundation CEO. “We all count on the Ross for care. Support for critical projects such as this enables our community hospital to function efficiently for years to come.”

ROAD RESURFACING IN FENELON

Road resurfacing work on CKL Road 121 in Fenelon Falls, from approximately Ranchers Road to West Street, will continue until Friday August 14, weather permitting. The project was originally expected to be completed by the end of July. The schedule has been extended due to unforeseen delays that slowed construction. During construction, drivers should continue to expect lane reductions with flagging or pilot vehicle operations in place. Short delays may occur. Please slow down and watch for workers and equipment in the area.

NEW HQ FOR PARAMEDICS

The City of Kawartha Lakes marked an important milestone on August 4 with a ground-breaking ceremony for the future Kawartha Lakes Paramedic Service Headquarters located at 230 Angeline Street South in Lindsay. Completion is targeted for 2028. “It’s a really exciting day for our service and one that’s been a long time coming,” said Sara Johnston, Chief of Kawartha Lakes Paramedic Service. “It’s really a privilege to stand here today on behalf of all of our team. You can see how many excited paramedics there are, both current and past. This project belongs to all of them. It reflects years of hard work, commitment and care for this community. I’m incredibly proud of our team, and grateful that we are creating a space that will support them and the important work they do for many years to come.” “This project gives us the room we desperately need to grow alongside our expanding community, ensuring our paramedics have a modern space that supports the critical work they do every day,” said Mike Locke, President of OPSEU Local 371 and Kawartha Lakes Paramedic for 20 years. “It represents a fantastic step towards modern, fully independent, and purpose-built EMS stations all across Kawartha Lakes. This is a vital investment in the health and safety of our residents and an investment in the professionals who serve them. Thank you to everyone who’s worked so hard to make this vision a reality. We can’t wait to call this new facility home.” “This building will be far more than bricks and mortar. It will be our home. It will be a place where we learn from one another, mentor future paramedics, and strengthen the bond that makes us a team. It will be a place where we gather before shift with purpose, and return knowing there is a space of our

own to decompress, process difficult calls, support one another, and take care of each other,” said Michelle Bell, who is on the steering committee and has been a Kawartha Lakes Paramedic since 2002. The new headquarters will provide a larger, purpose-built, modern facility to support the ongoing and future operational needs of Kawartha Lakes Paramedic Service. These include: • paramedic operations and response coordination • training and administration • ambulance bays and indoor vehicle parking • fleet maintenance, logistics and equipment storage • backup communications and critical IT infrastructure

SHARING THE GIFT OF MUSIC

Submitted by Jennifer Lopinski

A small barn concert at the Thomas Family Farm near Woodville brought community and musicians together to not only celebrate music and togetherness, but to raise funds in support of A Place Called Home (APCH). The event was organized by Steve Thomas, and it brought together several local musical artists, including Meredith McCabe, Cael Thomas, Ian Parliament, Jason Veley, Brian Kerr, and local up and

coming singer/songwriter, Mason Moxley, who was accompanied by his uncle, Chris Moxley. Organizer, Steve Thomas, said he just wanted to host an evening that would celebrate the gift of music. All of the musicians that evening thought it would be pretty wonderful to share the gift of music with others, by collecting donations in support of music opportunities at APCH...so that’s what we did! “This gift of musical instruments is really the result of the kindness and appreciation shown by everyone who was in attendance that night,” said Steve Thomas. “Everyone came together to enjoy some live music, and everyone went home feeling like they had been a part of something special. Being able to share that feeling with others who might be able to benefit from the beauty of music, just feels like a good thing to do!” “I have benefitted from the support of my local community as a young musical artist, and I know what it feels like to pick up a guitar and play a song -- it’s just good for the soul,” added Mason Moxley. “I think everyone has their own stories to tell and music is a

great way to do that. It feels pretty good to know that someone here at APCH might pick up one of these guitars and write their own song!” Both Thomas and Moxley were really pleased to deliver these gifts on behalf of everyone who contributed, including Van Halteren’s Music Centre who helped put this music package together. Nicole Bryant, Executive Director for A Place Called Home said, “This is such a thoughtful and welcome addition to our shelter. Music truly has a way of bringing people together and can be a therapeutic tool during difficult times. I am confident that this donation will be put to good use and enjoyed by many!!” “You can’t put a price on good people doing good things to make the world a better place!”

Horoscopes Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19) Aquarius, you can ‘detach or attach’. The choice is yours. You can separate from family and friends and live life on your own terms, or you can find a way to stay in touch and still be part of the larger world that is kind and loving. Think this over! Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20) September can mean a new beginning for many people, Pisces. Coming back from holidays or heading back to school can sometimes be daunting. Try to be well-organized to minimize the shock! Aries (March 21 to April 20) “I believe the best way to begin reconnecting humanity’s heart, mind, and soul to nature is for us to share our individual stories.”: J. Drew Lanham. What an interesting concept, Aries, – telling people about ourselves and our feelings in order to connect to the world around us. Taurus (April 21 to May 21) So much of ‘you’ has been left in others, Taurus – all the good deeds you have done and comments you have made. You may not remember them, but to those who received them they meant everything! So, if you’re feeling down some day, think of this! Gemini (May 22 to June 22) Gemini, you may not be able to travel the world, but, instead, you can welcome a traveller or newcomer into your sphere and learn so much about their culture and language – and develop a warm friendship at the same time! Cancer (June 23 to July 23) Be content with your natural beauty, Cancer, because everyone is beautiful in their own way! Don’t compare yourself to others. Be

August 7 to 20 McCullough

aware of all your goodness, outside and in. Leo (July 24 to Aug. 23) Do you have your own special haven, Leo – a place you can go to relax and think good thoughts about yourself and the world? If not, can you find one? Or, perhaps, it could be in your mind, a solo journey where you can make your very own peace. Virgo (Aug. 24 to Sept. 23) Virgo, there is ‘assertive’ and then there is ‘aggressive’, and there is definitely a difference. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking you have to boss everyone around in order to make things go your way. Being assertive takes a lot more class with much better results. Libra (Sept. 24 to Oct. 23) How’s your job going, Libra? Do you enjoy it? Do you wish you were working at something else? If so, take time to make some big decisions, and, before jumping into the unknown, do your homework! Scorpio (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22) Summertime can be tough on finances, dear Scorpio. If you need help or advice, take it! Many people are in the same boat, so do not feel embarrassed! Sagittarius (Nov. 23 to Dec. 21) Never be afraid to step into the spotlight and make yourself seen. You have much to offer the world, so jump right in, Sag! Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) Take an hour for yourself, one hour every so often, dear Cap. It may not seem like much, but it can be very empowering and reinvigorating – and you are so worth it!
