A CALL TO ALL EVENT ORGANIZERS
By Deb Crossen
After two years of cancelled events throughout the Kawarthas, this spring/summer/fall season seems to be looking up. Some events have already been rescheduled after a hiatus, and I know we’re all looking forward to gathering with friends and supporting local organizations. As some of you know, Design One, a sister company of The Kawartha Promoter, creates tourist guides for three regions in the Kawarthas -- Bobcaygeon, Buckhorn and Fenelon Falls. Last year, more than 15,000 of each were distributed throughout soouthern Ontario! Included in each guide is a list of events and some “featured” events, but last year, due to the pandemic, the list was generalized to include website addresses of the events that “may” take place. It was a challenge to say the least. Now, we’re working on the 2022 Explore Tourist Guides. As event organizers make their plans to go ahead, we want to make sure potential visitors know
about what’s happening! And we want to make sure your event is included but we can’t do it without you. Before March 15, please email me the pertinent information -- the name of the event, dates, times, location and, if any, ticket price. We’ll also need a website address for people to get more information. I will be checking your website to confirm the details and to find out more about the event to include more information in the “feature” section. So please make sure your website is up to date. My email address is editor@thepromoter.ca. You can check out previous issues of the Explore Tourist Guides through our website (www.thepromoter.ca) under Tourism. Thanks for your help!
Deadline for next issue Tuesday, March 8, 2022 Call 705-738-6188 ads@thepromoter.ca
Horoscopes
Horoscopes February 25 to March 11
By Melodie McCullough
Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19) Now is not the time to lose contact with old friends and family, Aquarius. Keep connected to your roots. You will need them, and perhaps more importantly, they will need you.
Leo (July 24 to Aug. 23) We are advising you to socialize a bit more these days, Leo. Head out, leave your shadow at home – and find someone new (or old) with whom to spend some meaningful time.
Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20) “Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.”: Lao Tzu. Take your time, Pisces. Everything will fall into place as it is meant.
Virgo (Aug. 24 to Sept. 23) “The things that make us fume and fret are the things that haven’t happened yet!” So true, Virgo. Don’t let your imagination take hold and make life difficult when it doesn’t need to be. Wait for the facts!
Aries (March 21 to April 20) Keep occupied! Focus on your work, hobbies or family times, Aries. Don’t let any bad thoughts ruin your days - and if they do, ask for help. You are worth it. Taurus (April 21 to May 21) There is still time to enjoy the last sparkly days of winter, Taurus. Get outdoors, even if it’s for a tiny little walk. You will be glad you did! Gemini (May 22 to June 22) Sad. Anxious. Scared. Mad. Despairing. These are emotions, Gemini – and they are what make you human. So, don’t hide them away. Accept them and work out how to deal with them. They do not control you. Cancer (June 23 to July 23) Companionship is an important and worthwhile part of our lives, Cancer. Who do you turn to? It can be old friends, colleagues – or even a pet. Don’t underestimate its power.
Libra (Sept. 24 to Oct. 23) In the same way a sunflower turns and follows the sun’s rays each day as they move across the sky, make this an aim of your daily experience, Libra. Follow the light! Scorpio (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22) Learn to think of mistakes in a positive light, dear Scorpio, because that is exactly what they represent. A person can learn so much from their errors. Build on them and move on! Sagittarius (Nov. 23 to Dec. 21) Your employment may involve some changes, Sag, in the near future. It will be a good time to set realistic and attainable goals. Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) Look up, way up, Capricorn, because, when you do, you will see a beautiful space where you are headed that will make you feel very special! You are going in the right direction. February 25, 2022 - The Kawartha Promoter
