Fog rolls in over SouthPort Golf Course
December 25, 2008 Pretty quiet around town today. The big push for Christmas is over. The snow removal by the Town is amazing. We saw some Town people out this morning making headway on the big piles. Good work and sincere thanks from all of us. December 24, 2008

Heavy Snow Saturday Night in Southampton
Dec 11, 2008
The Town of Maples
Dec 10, 2008 There was a man riding an electric cart which are common in summer, moving down the street toward High Street in a blizzard. It's a shame we don't have some sort of simple transit for seniors trying to shop. I'm sure they'd like to take a small bus that would run a regular route. With WalMart and the Plex everything to too spread out for many in the winter and summer Dec 7, 2008

A new look greets visitors at the Bruce County Museum & Cultural Centre An expansive greeting area in the foyer has been handcrafted by Bill Hicks of Southampton. It was decided that, with the ever-increasing attendance, a larger centre was necessary to accommodate both staff and visitors. According to the Museum's Nancy White, "There are a few small details yet to be finished but overall the improvement has made a significant difference." Dec 6, 2008

Ice Log on the Southampton Beach by John Rigby Nov 24, 2008 According to a US survey there are 17,000 Museums and Art Galleries in the United States attracting 800,000,000 visitors annually. That's about 2 2/3 visits for every man woman and child. That makes them the more popular than major sports teams and NASCAR combined. According to the experts, Museums have to be more and more tech aware and make it possible for visitors to look at an exhibit and use their own devices to Google some more information on the Internet. They are a key part of the educational and entertainment system and the Blue Water School District should be using them to advantage. A properly run tour and lesson plan built around a Museum or Art Gallery trip is a great way to expand a student's knowledge. Originally Museums were populated by scholars. They should again be the place of the Muse.

Winter Field by Brian Cole December 17, 2008 Noticed another accident last night between Sparks Corner and the Plex.
