Welcome to Places Magazine!

Winter is over. I think it is fair to say that this is one winter that will not go into the memory bank as well…memorable. Snowmobiles and skis alike collected more powder from dust than they did from the legendary snowy hills and valleys of Simcoe County. Oh well… onward friends!

I was watching my kids the other day shriek with excitement as the robins and bluejays returned to pull various creatures from the soggy ground and I thought to myself, as disappointing as this winter was, it just makes the coming of spring that much more exciting…and the warmth I felt was only partially due to the weather.

Spring means change - A new beginning. A time for grand ideas and a renewed enthusiasm for all the projects and activities you’ve been waiting to start. So as the streets are brushed clean and the windows are cracked we would like invite you to Spring in Simcoe County!!!!!

This issue of Places is packed with exciting ideas to get you started! Visit the beautiful gardens at the Stephen Leacock Museum, or take a stroll along one of our many waterfronts and enjoy the views. So put away the coats and mittens and get out there!
