Riverwalk – Sunday, September 4, 2016
I hope your summer is going well. If you are a beach person, then this summer has been great. If you are a gardener, then this summer may not be so good.
There is another RiverWalk fundraiser planned for Sunday September 4, 2016. If you missed the last two, or would like to walk the river again, then please get your tickets soon as the last Riverwalks were sold out early.
Tickets are free, but reserving the tickets are through Eventbrite –www.riverwalk.eventbrite.ca . As before this fundraiser is in support of Saving the South Shore and we are counting on your donations. Our lawyer Eric Gillespie has been hard at work getting all the paper work together for the mitigation hearing with wpd and of course this costs money. Eric has been successful in winning the Ostrander ERT and we are hoping for a successful outcome in the White Pines ERT.
For more information, please enlarge the poster here, or go to the eventbrite website here.
As you can see we have quite a few sponsors. If you have a business, or cannot make the Riverwalk, but wish to be a sponsor then get in touch with Borys Holowacz at b.holowacz@sympatico.ca
See you at RiverWalk.

RIVERWALK: A fundraising event helping to Save The South Shore
Saturday May 21 from 10 am until 1 pm is the date and time for the Spring Riverwalk at Mill Falls House B&B, 745 Crowes Rd, Milford. You are invited to spend some time exploring the Mill Falls meadow and riverside property in all its spring finery. Guides will be available to show the way and describe what you are seeing. After your walk join us for coffee or juice and some light brunch goodies.
Recently these pictures in words came from proprietor Sacha Warunkiw: Two days ago I sat at the edge of the brook sipping orange juice and had a lovely surprise. . .there on the other side of the river was an Otter bounding alone to the upper pond. It was a beautiful sight, mind you I hope he or she didn’t devour the eggs of the ducks that nest there every spring! Then yesterday I saw three Golden Eagles flying high overhead and then one came down with a swoop across the land. Its wings were very wide.
We are so lucky that Sacha invites us into his own little paradise in the spring and fall to raise funds for Save the South Shore. Only 100 tickets will be issued. Admission is by donation and you will have the opportunity to purchase your own “Blandy” T shirt or hat.
To register please go to:

Posted on August 27, 2015
APPEC will be hosting a rally at the Milford Mount Tabor Fairgrounds on September 27th starting at 11AM and going onto until 4PM. Come and show your support for the Protecting What We Love movement in Prince Edward County. Come and show just how angry you are with what is happening to our small community by big business and big government. Come and see just how big these monstrous Industrial Wind Turbines are and how they will tower over our small community. Just how big is 50 stories? … along the South Shore … too big. Come and learn what the noise will be like from these planned wind turbines as they are just too close to family residences, our wild life and our neighborhood. Come to understand how our heritage will be impacted by these views and how property may get damaged in the construction. Do you need to find out where the 28km transmission will be buried and just how close to residences the construction will come? Are you worried about the changes in the hydrology and wetlands and how wells may get impacted? Come and find out. Come and learn how the wpd White Pines Wind Project will be industrializing the South Shore and consider for yourself if there are too many for the people that live here and the important wild life and habitat that the County is known for.
There will be a lot to learn with many displays presented by APPEC and other local groups including PECFN, CCSAGE and individuals who have been critiquing the wpd White Pines Wind Project since 2010. There will be fun for all ages with live local entertainment, bands and music. There will be lots to eat with several different food trucks. It will be a pleasure for your eyes, your ears, your taste buds and your mind.
Come and join the rally this September 27th.

South Marysburgh Heritage House and Winery Tour
June 16, 2014Sunday June 22, 2014 10Am to 5PM
South Marysburgh has been a vibrant community since the United Empire Loyalists came to the County after the American Revolution. It has undergone many changes through the years with protected heritage buildings like Mount Tabor, the Milford Fair Grounds, the village of Milford and heritage homes from the 1800s throughout South Marysburgh.
The Alliance to Protect Prince Edward County is offering a rare opportunity to look inside some of the oldest and most interesting buildings in South Marysburgh – an opportunity to catch glimpses of the past.
Many houses on the tour tell the story of the families who lived in them and gives a suggestion of what life was like in the County in the 19th century. One house to be featured in the summer edition of County and Quinte Living will be on the tour. This is a chance to see inside the house before it appears in the magazine. Another house started in 1824 and added to over the years until 1885 as the family’s needs changed, illustrates the boom and bust cycles of local life. On Long Point, an old house has new owners who are working to restore some historic features of the house while adding their own ideas to make their heritage home comfortable for a modern family.
The three wineries in South Marysburgh who are participating in the tour will be adding their own special touches. At Long Dog, James Lahti will take visitors on a tour of some of his lovely historic buildings and offer a wine chosen by him especially for the tour. Exultet Winery, whose building once housed a cheese factory, is also offering a taste of wine chosen for the tour. This year will be the fourth year in a row that Exultet has won a gold metal for their Chardonnay. A sample of red and white wine paired with cheese is available to ticket holders at Half Moon Bay. This is a winery that has come to the County recently.
As an added bonus there are little extras at each of the homes and sites – it might be a sampling of a fruit pie baked in a wood oven, peanut brittle, strawberries, or a glass of lemonade.
A Loyalist Tea, included in the price of your ticket, prepared by the Friends of Macaulay House, will be served in the Milford Town Hall from 2 to 5pm. The Town Hall is the first town hall to be built in the County and dates from 1840.
Suzanne Pasternak and friends will be signing songs and telling stories of South Marysburgh at the Milford Town Hall during the afternoon tea.
