Grand River Raceway

Grand River Raceway is an entertainment, racing, and gaming destination located in Elora, Ontario, Canada. It opened in 2002 with 200 slot machines operated by Ontario Lottery and Gaming. That subsequently increased to 230+ machines. The casino, known as Elements Casino, operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The Raceway offers seasonal live harness racing (summer), year-round simulcast of racing from across North America, dining and special events. The property and facilities are owned and operated by the Grand River Agricultural Society (G.R.A.S.) a not-for-profit corporation, incorporated under the Agricultural Societies Act of Ontario and operated by a volunteer board of directors. Best known as a racing, gaming & dining entertainment destination, Grand River Raceway also offers Meetings & Events Services, with rentals of the many rooms and spaces for business events, conferences, parties, complemented by in-house catering. The Society leases space to the OLG for the slot machines; the OLG is the operator and employer for the slots operation. In 2009, the Raceway paid Centre Wellington $1.6 million in taxes and the OLG paid the Township an additional $1.78 million, from a share of the profits. A plan for substantial expansion was approved by Township Council in February 2017; this is expected to add gaming tables (up to 52) and many slot machines (up to 1200 in total). Some councilors were strongly opposed to the plan. The rationale for the majority decision was the revenue benefit; since the casino opened, the Township has received over $22 million from the Raceway and the OLG's currently small slot machine operation.

Grand Valley Institution for Women

Grand Valley Institution for Women (GVI; French: Établissement pour femmes Grand Valley) is a women's prison in Kitchener, Ontario, operated by the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC). In Canada, all offenders sentenced to prison terms of greater than two years serve their time in a federal institution operated by the CSC. The Grand Valley Institution, which had a reported capacity of approximately 130 women as of April 2010, is the only federal women's prison in Ontario. History The prison opened in 1997. Previously Prison for Women in Kingston, Ontario was the only federal women's prison in Canada. Area neighbors initially opposed the development due to its location in Kitchener and its proximity to residential areas, but as of 2017 the opposition had died down. The housing for lower security prisoners was built first, and the housing for maximum security prisoners was built later. On October 19, 2007, prison officials at the Grand Valley Institution observed the death of 19-year-old inmate Ashley Smith causing much controversy and legal inquest. Composition The majority of the prisoners live in detached buildings, or "cottages". The prison has a secure unit for prisoners temporarily held in administrative segregation, who do not communicate with other prisoners, and those classified as maximum security prisoners, who are held in "pods" which each have five cells. Initially the prison had a white picket fence as a boundary, but a chain-link barbed wire fence later replaced it. Demographics Circa 2017 the prison had 168 prisoners, with most of them each having four or fewer years remaining of their sentences, and 13 of them being classified as maximum security. Four of them had children accompanying them. Circa 2017 the prison had 208 employees. Programs The program in which mothers have children with them in prison had been active since 2016 and is active as of 2017. Ryan Flanagan of CTV stated that previously the program was in "fits and starts". Notable prisoners Elva Bottineau Terri-Lynne McClintic Jennifer Pan Ashley Smith Elizabeth Wettlaufer References

Grant Hall (Queen's University)

Grant Hall is a landmark on the campus of Queen's University at Kingston in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. The building was completed in 1905. It is located on University Avenue, just north of Bader Lane. The building is named in honour of Principal George Monro Grant. It regularly is used as a symbol of the university. Many ceremonial events, plays, and concerts take place in Grant Hall. Classes rarely take place in the hall but due to the large, open space, exams sometimes are scheduled. All university convocation is done in Grant Hall. History Grant Hall was built as part of a broader campus expansion plan from 1902 to 1912. Originally, the building was to be funded and named after the Frontenac County Council. The council withdrew financial support for the building in 1901 however, due to the anti-prohibition stance that Principal George Monro Grant had at the time. As a result, in 1902 the student population fundraised over $35,000 needed to complete the building. The building was finished in 1905 and named posthumously in honour of George Monro Grant and his 25-year anniversary as the university's principal. The building was designed by Symons and Rae, a Toronto-based architectural firm that also designed other early buildings on campus. For a time during World War I it was also used as a military hospital. Architecture and features The main exterior of the building is cladded in limestone and features design in the Romanesque-style. A large, iconic feature is the square clock tower with belfry. In the main facade, the windows are made from stained-glass. References
Great Lakes Christian High School

Great Lakes Christian High School is a private Christian high school in Beamsville, Ontario affiliated with the Churches of Christ. History Great Lakes Christian High School (formerly Great Lakes Christian College) was established in 1952 by members of the Church of Christ. Through a high school program delivered from a Christian worldview and a post-secondary Bible program (see Great Lakes Bible College), the intention was to build up the church and equip people to serve and lead in ministry. The school operates on the former estate of S.T. Creet, who had purchased the property from the estate of Senator William Gibson in 1918. Senator Gibson’s former home, “Inverugie,” served as the main school building for several years and continues to be used today as a girl’s dormitory now called Perry Hall. The high school program has attracted on average 100 to 120 students annually, peaking at over 200 in the early 1980s. International student enrolment began in the early 1970s. New buildings added over time include Ellis Hall, the main academic building, in 1965, Tallman Auditorium. a double-sized gymnasium in 1977, and Merritt Hall, a boy’s dormitory, in 2002. Great Lakes Bible College moved its operation to Waterloo, Ontario in 1993, and Great Lakes Christian Preschool was opened in 1996 and continues to operate on campus today. In 2008 Great Lakes Christian College was rebranded as Great Lakes Christian High School.

Green Island (Ohio)

Green Island is a small 17-acre (0.07 km²) island of the U.S. state of Ohio, in Lake Erie. It is located approximately three miles southwest of Put-in-Bay. It is part of Put-in-Bay Township, in Ottawa County. History The U.S. Government bought Green Island in December 1851. A lighthouse was later constructed on the island in 1855. The most famous keeper of the lighthouse was Colonel Charles F. Drake, who lived on the island with his family until the lighthouse burned down on New Year's Eve in 1863. A new, two-story lighthouse was constructed on the island in 1864. It remained active until 1939, when the U.S. Coast Guard replaced it with a skeletal tower with an automated light on top. Green Island is currently a wildlife refuge, managed by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, and is no longer open to the public. References Green Island Lighthouse History of Green Island

Grey Highlands Secondary School

Grey Highlands Secondary School is a Grade 9–12 high school located in 100 Highway 10, Flesherton, Ontario, Canada, in rural Grey County. It was built in 1967. Early history Grey Highlands Secondary School (GHSS) was built in 1967 as one of the many new school construction projects undertaken by Education Minister, Bill Davis, in order to modernize and centralize rural elementary and secondary schools. When it opened in September 1968, it became the central high school for students from three smaller district high schools, covering a collection area of 195,000 hectares (750 square miles). Those smaller high schools were converted to elementary schools, which in turn replaced the many one- and two-room school houses that were still in operation until that time. Until that time, the curriculum and facilities in Ontario's rural high schools were designed solely for academic students destined for post-secondary education. Students needing a level of education necessary for the trades, business or a non-academic career inevitably dropped out of high school. E. Murray Juffs, the first principal of Grey Highlands and the main driving force behind the design of the school, envisioned Grey Highlands as a multi-discipline school, encompassing opportunities for education in all streams, from occupational training as a car mechanic or short-order cook, to business office training, to a liberal arts education suitable for university preparation. Incidents The area around Flesherton is in a snow belt region, and winter storms from Lake Huron and Georgian Bay can cause several "snow days" each year, when buses cannot safely deliver students. While this is not a problem when students are forced to stay home, there is always the question of whether to send students home early when a daytime storm threatens. This problem was not anticipated in the first winter of operation (1968–69), when a sudden storm stranded the entire student body and staff at the school, forcing them to spend the night in the gymnasium and auditorium. Procedures were developed to try to avoid this, including a barograph in the office of the then Head of Science, W.J. Brown, that would warn of sudden drops in barometric pressure. Despite this, there was another forced sleepover twenty years later, on February 8, 1989, when 130 students had to stay at the school overnight due to an unexpected storm.

Griffith Island (Georgian Bay)

Griffith Island is an island in Georgian Bay, in the province of Ontario, Canada. It is one of three islands in Colpoys Bay, and sits to the north east of Wiarton and north of Owen Sound. The other two islands in Colpoy's Bay are White Cloud Island and Hay Island. From the early 1970s, the island has been owned by and in private use of the Griffith Island Club, principally for recreational shooting and hunting. Hence, it is strictly off limits to the general public. The island has an airstrip, visible from satellite imagery, permitting authorized small aircraft to access the island. A small part of the island is currently owned by the federal government of Canada and hosts the Griffith Island lighthouse and is one of the Imperial Towers. The lighthouse was built originally in 1859 and is one of six limestone lighthouses built in the 1850s. The lighthouse is 25.9 meters (85 feet) in height. At first the light was powered by whale oil and later with kerosene. The keeper was required to polish the reflector, a long and tedious process. A keeper's house was also built on the site with two-foot thick stone walls, a slate roof and plastered interior. This lighthouse was automated in 1955 and the interior is in ruin. The light still operates and can be seen for a distance of 27.2 km (17 miles). References
