The weather has been so nice lately that your intrepid reporters have taken a bit of time off of our intrepid reporting to spend some time at the beach. When we first got there, we were so excited, we couldn’t decide whether to protect our noses from the sun or run directly into the water. It was a zinc or swim situation!
At the time of writing, Billings Township is still in a full fire ban until further notice. Check the township website (http://billingstwp.ca) for the latest details.
The bridge along the river trail is still off limits to foot traffic until it can be repaired or replaced. We contacted the township with our concerns about it being completed in a timely manner. The head of public works was very understanding and said, “Truss me! It will be fixed up very soon. You know I wouldn’t keep you in suspension!”
Rumours continue to swirl around the 2021 Kagawong Market. It looks like the market will be back to its regular Wednesday time slot and to its regular location at the pavilion by the tennis courts. With the market back at its old stomping grounds, the cabanas are up for grabs! These 8x12 kiosks are available to rent for the 2021 season. Contact the township office for more information (tgordon@billingstwp.ca).
Kagawong’s newest venture to be launched held its grand opening this weekend. Artisans by the Bay offers a variety of arts and crafts items by local artists as well as products carried and/or created by various entrepreneurs. Stop in to explore what they have on offer at the Austin Hunt Marina.

The recent rain has sent the flower boxes around town into overdrive. The efforts of the Late Bloomers volunteers are quite impressive, especially those tasked with caring for the boxes and gardens in and around the Park Centre. If you peer through the dust of construction, you’ll see pops of colour everywhere!
Words of wisdom for this week: never yell into a colander; you’ll strain your voice. Have a great week!
