Welcome to the Spring Issue

As the sun shines a little longer, and the days stretch into bright evenings we welcome Spring. The March melt will begin and welcome April showers, which usher in with them our true spring. Sprouts of green will be visible before you know it. 

“Is the Spring coming?” he said. “What is it like?”…
“It is the sun shining on the rain and the rain falling on the sunshine…”
– Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden

This issue has a little bit of winter left in it with information about late season snowmobiling, but mostly we couldn’t wait to prepare you for spring. 

We have information about opening the cottage from Titan Renos North, and reads that will get you on your way to ordering and procuring the perfect dock for the new season.

We are proud to be a sponsor of the Peterborough Tackle Swap and Fishing Show this year and can’t wait to see you there. We have lots of fishing information in this issue, with articles from our resident fisherman Mike Williams, and also some new voices; read about pan fishing with Mike from GOAT Angling Adventures, and meet Yvonne Brown, the Organizer of Ontario Women Anglers.

We have animal info from Kawartha Wildlife Centre and the Peterborough Zoo, and in the pet section read about the top 5 training tips for your new puppy. 

We welcome back the Kawartha Lakes Country Living Show after a 2-year hiatus and we are happy to be sponsors! They are still accepting vendors, so if you are interested get in contact soon. 

Spring brings with it a little comfort of getting back to normal; with new events popping up. We recommend that you travel all the small towns that Cottage Country has to offer – there are jewels hidden where you least expect them. 

Welcome to the Spring Issue, Cottage Country – get out and plant some flowers!

“It’s Spring Fever. That is what the name of it is. And when you’ve got it, you want—oh, you don’t quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!” – Mark Twain
