The Museum has expanded its gift shop offerings to feature products from businesses and artisans across Peterborough County and the Kawarthas. The initiative provides visitors with authentic, locally made items while creating a valuable marketplace for local entrepreneurs.

Lang Pioneer Village Museum — which was recently nominated once again for the Attractions Ontario Top Small Museum Award — selects local artisans who use traditional and heritage skills to create products that appeal to today’s customers. Most items featured in the gift shop are locally made, allowing visitors to discover products that reflect the region’s history, creativity, and craftsmanship. Museum guests are increasingly stopping in to browse, ask questions about the artisans and their work, and purchase products, resulting in increased visitor engagement and gift shop revenue.

Welcoming more than 23,000 visitors annually, Lang Pioneer Village Museum is one of Peterborough County’s premier tourism attractions and an award-winning cultural destination. Its strong visitor traffic provides local businesses with greater exposure and opportunities to grow their sales.

“This initiative is a wonderful example of how Peterborough County works collaboratively to support local businesses,” said Warden Bonnie Clark. “Through our Economic Development Strategy, we have committed to supporting local entrepreneurs and creating opportunities for them to succeed. By connecting local makers with one of our most visited tourism attractions, we are showcasing the incredible talent that exists throughout our communities while strengthening our local economy.”

Peterborough County’s Economic Development Strategy identifies business retention, expansion, and entrepreneurship as key priorities. The County supports these priorities through tourism marketing, destination campaigns and economic development services that connect entrepreneurs with funding opportunities, business-planning assistance, workforce resources and training programs.

“Our role is to help create opportunities for local businesses to succeed,” said Tracie Bertrand, Peterborough County general manager of tourism and communications. “Tourism and Economic Development work hand-in-hand through marketing, business development services and new opportunities for sales and exposure. Lang Pioneer Village Museum’s retail initiative demonstrates what can happen when County departments collaborate toward a common goal.”

The initiative also enhances the visitor experience by giving guests an opportunity to take home a piece of The Kawarthas while directly supporting local entrepreneurs.

“Visitors increasingly want authentic experiences and products that tell the story of a destination,” said Elizabeth King, Lang Pioneer Village Museum manager. “By featuring locally made products in our gift shop, we provide a more meaningful visitor experience while supporting the talented artisans and small businesses that contribute to the unique character of Peterborough County.”

The retail program connects tourism, culture and business development while celebrating the people and businesses that make The Kawarthas a vibrant place to live, work and visit.

This initiative is the first feature in ‘Working Together for Business Success,’ a series highlighting how Peterborough County departments, programs and assets are collaborating to support local businesses, strengthen communities and advance the County’s Economic Development Strategy.

Peterborough County-City Paramedics Encourage Water Safety This Summer

With lakes, rivers, pools and waterways to enjoy throughout Peterborough and The Kawarthas this summer, Peterborough County-City Paramedics are encouraging everyone to make water safety a priority.

While many water-related incidents are preventable, they can have life-altering consequences for individuals, families and communities.

“With more than 300 lakes and countless opportunities to enjoy the water across Peterborough and The Kawarthas, we want everyone to put safety first every time they head out on the water,” said Trisha Bromfield, Chief of Paramedics, Peterborough County-City Paramedics. “A lifejacket, active supervision and good decision-making can make all the difference. Water-related emergencies are often silent and happen in a matter of seconds and are often preventable. We want everyone to enjoy a safe summer and return home with great memories - not a preventable tragedy.”

Peterborough County-City Paramedics encourage everyone to:

• Never swim alone; always swim with a buddy

• Wear a properly fitted lifejacket when boating or participating in water activities

• Avoid alcohol and drugs while swimming or operating watercraft

• Closely supervise children and remain alert around water

• Know your swimming abilities and stay within your limits

• Learn CPR and basic emergency response skills

• Check weather conditions and follow posted safety signage

Parents and caregivers are reminded that active supervision is the most effective way to keep children safe around water. Children should remain within arm's reach of a responsible adult when swimming or playing near water. Inflatable toys and water wings are not substitutes for approved personal flotation devices.

Those enjoying the Trent-Severn Waterway should also be aware of important safety regulations. Swimming or diving in navigation channels is prohibited, and individuals must remain at least 40 metres away from lock gates, dams and bridges. Strong currents, changing water levels and hidden hazards can create dangerous conditions, even for experienced swimmers.

Choosing designated swimming areas, wearing appropriate safety equipment and remaining aware of surroundings can help ensure a safe experience for everyone on the water.

New Mini Golf Course Opens in Douro-Dummer With a Kawarthas Twist

By Scott Arnold

The Little Mini Golf Co. officially opened Thursday in Douro-Dummer, bringing a one-of-a-kind 18-hole course inspired by the places, history and landmarks that make the Peterborough and Kawarthas region unique.

Mini golf has always been about friendly competition, creative obstacles and maybe a lucky bounce or two.

The Little Mini Golf Co. takes that familiar idea and gives it a distinctly Kawartha twist.

The new 18-hole course officially celebrated its grand opening Thursday at 17 Indacom Drive in Douro-Dummer, adding a new family attraction alongside The Little Frozen Yogurt Company. But while the course offers all the fun people expect from mini golf, it's the details that set it apart.

From the dynamite wagon to themed holes inspired by local waterways, every detail of The Little Mini Golf Co. was designed with the Kawarthas in mind. (Photo by Scott Arnold)

Instead of pirates, castles or dinosaurs, visitors will find themselves putting through local history and landmarks.

There's a replica of the Peterborough Lift Lock, complete with a putt through the Hunter Street Tunnel. Rice Lake, Stony and Clear Lake, and Buckhorn Lake are all represented in the shapes of different holes. A wagon loaded with "dynamite" pays tribute to the historic Douro explosion of 1885, while another hole features a flowing stream that can carry your golf ball toward the cup if you know the trick.

"It's a secret," owner Sean Harris laughed during a tour of the course. "Put the ball in the river and the river will carry the ball and spit it out back right towards the hole, possibly for a hole in one."

That mix of creativity and local pride is exactly what Harris and his wife, A.J. Sainsbury, hoped to build.

The project has been years in the making.

The story starts with Harris and business partner David Conroy running their construction company out of a garage. After learning they needed a different location, they discovered the property in Douro-Dummer was available, purchased it and built their shop.

Not long after, Harris and Sainsbury saw another opportunity.

Watching the steady stream of customers visiting what used to be the Butter Tart Factory, they realized the property had the potential to become more than just a construction shop. Rather than opening another traditional ice cream stand, Sainsbury remembered visiting frozen yogurt shops as a kid and thought the idea would stand out.

The Little Frozen Yogurt Company helped lay the foundation for the new destination, offering visitors a chance to enjoy frozen treats before or after a round of mini golf. (Photo by Scott Arnold)

The Little Frozen Yogurt Company opened several years ago before eventually adding Kawartha Dairy ice cream to the menu.

As families continued visiting for frozen treats, lawn games and outdoor space, another idea started to take shape.

"We had all this land that we weren't using and we wanted to do more," Harris said. "We wanted to make this a destination."

Mini golf quickly rose to the top of the list.

When Milltown Mini Golf closed, Harris said they realized just how much the community valued having a place where families, friends and visitors of all ages could spend time together.

Rather than simply replacing what had been lost, they wanted to create something completely different.

To help bring that vision to life, the couple travelled to Myrtle Beach, often considered the mini golf capital of North America, visiting courses, taking photos and making notes about the features they liked most.

Then they came home and started building.

"We played lots of courses trying to find what are the things we really liked and what doesn't work," Harris said. "We took pictures of our favourite holes along the way and kind of put it all together here."

The result is a course that rewards repeat visits.

Some holes can be played more than one way, encouraging golfers to try different shots each time they visit. Others hide little surprises that players might not discover until their second or third round.

"Sean doesn't like to do things the easy way," Sainsbury said with a smile. "It just makes it the kind of place that you want to come back and play again, as opposed to a cookie-cutter mini golf course."

That philosophy extends beyond the golf itself.

Harris admits the course probably won't ever be truly finished.

There are plans to add boats to the Lift Lock display, complete more decorative features, finish landscaping and continue adding little touches throughout the property.

"The problem is I'm a dreamer," Harris said. "It doesn't stop."

That same vision was evident throughout Thursday's grand opening, where community leaders from all levels of government joined family, friends and supporters to celebrate the opening. Speakers praised the project as another attraction that will help draw both residents and visitors to Peterborough County while supporting local tourism and small business.

For Harris, though, the goal has always been much simpler.

As parents of three young children, he and Sainsbury wanted to create a place where families could spend time together, whether they're introducing a child to mini golf for the first time, challenging grandparents to a friendly round or grabbing a frozen yogurt after a game.

"It's a fun thing for all," Harris said.

Thursday's grand opening marked the end of months of planning and construction, but not the end of the project. Harris already has a list of ideas he wants to add, from more features around the Lift Lock to finishing touches throughout the course. If his track record is any indication, The Little Mini Golf Co. will keep growing right alongside the community it was built to celebrate.

After all, dream projects have a way of continuing to grow.

Oakville goaltender and former Laker Landon Kells was the difference-maker, shutting out Peterborough in both the first and third periods while helping the Rock even the best-of-five series at one game apiece.

The Rock jumped out to a 4-0 lead after the opening period, with Justin Tavares, Josh Dawick and Sam LeClair all finding the net. Peterborough responded with a strong second period, scoring five times to erase the deficit and take a 5-4 lead.

Thomas Hoggarth opened the Lakers' scoring late in the second period, followed by goals from Ryan Lanchbury, Holden Cattoni, and two more from Hoggarth. Oakville, however, answered with two goals of its own before the period ended to take a 6-5 lead into the final frame.

The Rock pulled away in the third period, scoring five unanswered goals to secure the win. Alex Simmons finished with four goals, including a penalty shot marker late in the game, while Justin Tavares completed the night with a hat trick after the league corrected the third-period scoring.

Thomas Hoggarth recorded a hat trick to lead the Lakers, while Ryan Lanchbury and Holden Cattoni each had a goal and two assists. Rob Hellyer, Colton Armitage, Jake Withers, Mike Robinson, Daniel Clark and Justin Sykes each chipped in with an assist.

Drew Hutchison made 43 saves in the loss, while Kells stopped 44 shots to earn the victory.

The series now shifts back to Oakville for Game 3 on Saturday at 7pm at the Toronto Rock Athletic Centre, before returning to the Peterborough Memorial Centre for Game 4 on Tuesday.

In the other MSL semifinal, the Six Nations Chiefs took a 2-0 series lead over the Cobourg Kodiaks with an 11-9 win Thursday night. Game 3 goes Saturday in Six Nations
