Out of curiosity the other day I Googled the Toronto Star, Home Delivery and completed a request to have the Star delivered to the cottage.
Surprise of surprises! The next morning the Star was at the end of our laneway.
And to add to the delight, the price for one month,on an introductory offer for 6 months is $17.81 per month and you are able to cancel at any time.
Now, why am I promoting this? Strictly because of a selfish motive. I am concerned that if not enough people subscribe that we may loose this home delivery.

Hello fellow cottagers! Sunny, warm weather reminds us that Bruce Beach time is approaching, summer really is just around the corner. The Bruce Beach Clubhouse was a busy place last summer and this year looks like it will be the same. The clubhouse has already been booked for July 16th, July 23rd, July 30th and July 31st.
If you are interested in reserving the clubhouse for a cottagers' meeting, event, family gathering or wedding, please let me know as soon as possible and I will send you the appropriate forms.
