StoosNews Spotlight: Check Out The Business Beat This Week Featuring Kawartha Gymnastics Club, Turner And Pooch Dog Training & More!

PTBOCanada is delighted to be running StooNews columns each week here, spotlighting new businesses and startups in Peterborough and the Kawarthas. Here is this week’s edition…

The Kawartha Gymnastics Club has announced that they are moving to a new location, a 12,460 sq ft facility across from Lansdowne Place. The new facility will allow them to add new programs and equipment, as well as a foam pit! An extremely valuable training tool, the foam pit contains 5,000 pieces of foam, and the club has come up with a clever fundraising idea, asking everyone to help purchase blocks of foam for $10/each. Donors will have their name displayed on a sponsor wall in the new facility. Details are at kawarthagymnastics.ca.

Ineke Turner of Turner & Pooch Dog Training is working on opening a new location at 140 Simcoe street in Downtown Peterborough. Plans for the new shop include group day classes, day training, including training the owners, with lots of future plans for a boutique pet supplies and services store. Watch for a Spring opening, but meanwhile Ineke has a fun social media game going, take a photo in front of her new store, and post it to social media and tag her in it. Bonus points if your dog is in the photo… Watch for details at ptbodogtrainer.ca.
