Municipio di Kingston

Il Municipio di Kingston (inglese: Kingston City Hall) è la sede del comune di Kingston, in Canada. Occupa un intero isolato di fronte al lago Ontario nel centro della città; il municipio è un edificio distintivo costruito in stile neoclassico con un'importante cupola con tamburo. Il municipio fu completato nel 1844 su progetto di George Browne, e la sua dimensione e la sua imponenza riflettono lo status di Kingston, città che all'epoca dell'inizio dei lavori era la capitale della provincia del Canada. L'edificio è ritenuto una delle opere più importanti di Browne. L'edificio fu designato come sito storico nazionale del Canada nel 1961.

Kitchener Public Library

The Kitchener Public Library is the public library system for the city of Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. It consists of six libraries; a large Central Library in the downtown core, with five Community Libraries located in various neighbourhoods of Kitchener. History The main branch of the Kitchener Public Library opened at 85 Queen Street in May 1962. Its origins date to the Mechanics Institute first established in 1854, an institution that within the first year grew to house nearly 1,000 books in German and English. It was a Carnegie library. The collection, maintained by membership fees and private subscriptions, was destroyed by fire in the 1860s and was replaced in 1871 by a library located on the first floor of the town hall. The Berlin Public Library was officially formed in 1884 following the passing of the Free Libraries Act two years prior. The present library replaced the Berlin Public Library which originally opened in 1884 with a collection of 2,855 volumes on the first floor of the town hall. The Berlin Public Library moved when it became a Carnegie library, opening on January 8, 1904, located at Queen and Weber. Mabel Dunham served as Chief Librarian at the new location from 1908 to 1944. The Carnegie library was demolished following the opening of the Queen Street location in 1962. Expansion In 2010 the main branch underwent a $40 million 25,000-square-foot expansion. Completed in 2013, the project increased floor space by 30% (from around 82,000 square feet to 107,000 square feet). The expansion also made the entire building wheelchair accessible. Designed by Levitt Goodman Architects, the building was awarded a 2015 Library Architectural and Design Transformation award by the Ontario Library Association. In 2015 the Kitchener Public Library became the first library in Canada to lend out internet Hotspots. Branches The Kitchener Public Library system consists of a Central Library in the downtown core, and five Community Library locations throughout the city. The Central Library was completely renovated and expanded in 2014.

Knox Presbyterian Church (Agincourt)

Knox Presbyterian Church is located at 4156 Sheppard Avenue East in the Agincourt neighbourhood of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It was formed by former members of the "Historic" Knox Presbyterian Church (now Knox United Church) after that Presbyterian congregation voted 136-106 in 1925 to join the United Church of Canada. The new congregation was initially assisted by the Minister and Elders of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church Scarborough, but has also grown over the years; their 1950s extension is named the "John Forbes Hall" after the Minister of that era (1950–1969). Recent ministers of this church include: Rev. Dr. Robert P Carter (1974–1987, died August 2007), Rev Gordon Hastings (1988–1996), Reverends Dr H. Glen (Moderator of the 2000 General Assembly) and Joyce Davis (1996–2003), Dr. Jeff Loach (2004–2006), now the regional director of the Canadian Bible Society. Interim Moderator Rev. Dr. Ian Clark served in 2004, and returned for 2006-07, and led the Induction Service on July 29, 2007 for Rev. Harry J. Bradley. There is great co-operation between the two Knox Churches, as well as other congregations in the Agincourt area with joint ministerials, and social ministries and spiritual programmes such as Alpha.

Knox United Church (Scarborough)

The Knox United Church, began as Knox Presbyterian Church in Scarborough, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, in a wood-frame church built in 1848, the result of the Church of Scotland disruption, that led to the formation of the Presbyterian Church of Canada in Connection with the Free Church of Scotland. Elder William Clarke, Sr., was one of the group who withdrew from the "Auld Kirk" at the Synod Meeting held in Kingston, Canada West, in July 1844; his Minister, Rev. James George, and much of the Presbyterian Church at Scarborough in Connection with the Church of Scotland (now St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Scarborough, located north of Thomson Memorial Park) remained. The original Knox Congregation (named after Scottish Church reformer John Knox) met first with another congregation located in York Mills, until settling in the developing Scarborough Township village of Agincourt. 40 local residents became the first communicants of Knox Presbyterian Church, originally known as "Knox's Church Scarboro". In 1853, it became the centre of the "Scarborough Township Pastoral Charge", along with Melville (formed 1851) in West Hill; Zion Church, Cedar Grove (formed 1855) in Markham Township; Chalmers Church, York Town Line (1863–1890); and other occasional preaching points. By 1883, Knox Church had grown to become a single-point charge. With a growing membership, the current brick church was built in 1872. This church stands at 2569 Midland Avenue at the corner of Sheppard Avenue East, surrounded by a large cemetery containing many early settlers, and a number of prominent church leaders. In 1925, this Presbyterian congregation voted 136–106 to be part of the new United Church of Canada. A number of members left to form a "Continuing" Knox Presbyterian Church, now located nearby at 4156 Sheppard Avenue East. The Christian Education Centre was added in the 1950s.

Lake Bernard

Lake Bernard is a freshwater lake 276 km (171 mi) north of Toronto and 23 km (14 mi) west of Algonquin Park in Parry Sound District, Ontario, Canada, between Huntsville and North Bay. Its area is approximately 21 km2 (8.1 sq mi) and it measures roughly 3 km (1.9 mi) across and 8 km (5.0 mi) long. The village of Sundridge lies on the northern shore of this clean, clear lake, which is otherwise surrounded by the municipal township of Strong. The lake has been named after a family who hunted and trapped for many years in the area. Lake Bernard is the largest freshwater lake in the world without an island. It is a deep lake, charted to depths of 45.7 metres (150 ft) Historically, the lake was primarily used for logging, and one may still see many logs which have become waterlogged and sunk to the bottom. Lake Bernard used to be called Stoney Lake, due to the large volume of rock found around the southern shores of the lake. Much of the lake has sandy beaches and many areas feature a sandy bottom and shallow waters. Summer events on Lake Bernard include the annual Canada Day festivities in July and the Sunflower Festival and RBC Sundridge Triathlon each August. Fish species in the lake include lake trout, rainbow trout, speckled trout, whitefish, yellow perch and smallmouth bass. Because Lake Bernard is large and deep, fishing for bass is limited to some areas, but lake trout and whitefish are plentiful in this stocked lake. Lake Bernard's attractions include High Park Lookout and hiking trails. Lake Bernard is also part of the Discovery Routes Trails system for cycling. Snowmobiling on and around the lake and ice fishing are popular during the winter and huts can be seen on the lake until April. Dog-sledding can be arranged at local resorts. Lake Bernard is also home to Glen Bernard Camp, a residential girls' camp founded in 1922 by Mary S. Edgar. The shores of the lake have been developed with non-permanent residences and cottages as well as permanent residents, many of whom are descendants of the original settlers to the area in the latter half of the 1800s. There is an active property owners' association on the lake, focusing on protecting lake health and building community. Several resorts have also made Lake Bernard their home, including Shady Nook Cottages, the Northridge Inn & Resort, Lake Bernard Park campground and Caswell Resort Hotel.

Bernardmeer (Ontario)

Het Bernardmeer (Bernard Lake) is een zoetwatermeer 276 kilometer ten noorden van Toronto en 23 kilometer ten westen van Algonquin Park in Parry Sound District, Ontario, Canada, tussen Huntsville en North Bay. Het is ongeveer 2,5 kilometer breed en 7 kilometer lang. Het dorp Sundridge ligt aan de noordelijke oever van dit schone, heldere meer dat verder in de gemeente Strong ligt. Het meer is vernoemd naar een familie die jarenlang in het gebied heeft gejaagd. Historisch gezien werd het meer voornamelijk gebruikt voor houtkap, en men kan nog steeds veel boomstammen zien die drassig zijn geworden en naar de bodem zijn gezonken. Lake Bernard heette vroeger Stoney Lake, vanwege het grote rotsvolume dat rond de zuidelijke oevers van het meer te vinden is. Een groot deel van het meer heeft zandstranden en veel gebieden hebben een zandbodem en ondiep water. Vissoorten in het meer zijn onder andere meerforel, regenboogforel, bronforel, gele baars.

Lake Gibson (Ontario)

Lake Gibson is a lake near Thorold in the Regional Municipality of Niagara, Ontario, Canada. The lake is not natural, but rather was created as a reservoir for hydroelectric power generation at the Ontario Power Generation Decew Falls 1 and Decew Falls 2 generating stations. The lake was created by flooding the shallow valley of Beaverdams Creek. Lake Moodie is located to the northwest of Lake Gibson and is a smaller segment of the overall Lake Gibson system. Almost all of the water supply to these lakes comes from Lake Erie via the Welland Canal. The lakes form part of the Twelve Mile Creek watershed. Highway 406 crosses over the lake. At the west end of the lake is Morningstar Mill, consisting of a working gristmill dating from 1872, plus a reconstructed sawmill. A short distance east of this are the ruins of DeCou House, the destination of Laura Secord's famous journey during the War of 1812.<ref References External links Website for Morningstar Mill park Morningstar Mill DeCou House

Lake Ontario Park

Lake Ontario Park is a municipal park located in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, on the east side of Cataraqui Bay on the shore of Lake Ontario. The park, which dates from 1894, is a day-use facility with picnic areas, picnic pavilion, walkways, and children's playgrounds. The city acquired the park from the street railway company in 1930, the last year of streetcar service in Kingston. Its once popular campground closed in 2005 and the park's many amusement rides and refreshment booths have been removed. In 2006 the City of Kingston completed an exercise to obtain public feedback on the park's future. The park was refurbished and officially reopened on June 23, 2013 with washrooms, a play structure, walking paths to the shoreline, a beach volleyball court and a natural skating rink for the winter. Thousands attend on Victoria Day at dusk (third Monday in May), to enjoy a large fireworks display over Cataraqui Bay, as well as live music performances.

Lake Panache

Lake Panache is a lake in the Canadian province of Ontario. It is located in the Sudbury District, although a small portion of the lake lies within the southernmost city limits of Greater Sudbury, approximately 10 kilometres south of the community of Whitefish. The lake's westernmost point lies within Foster township near Espanola, and its easternmost point lies within Bevin township south of Lively. Its main water inflow and outflow is the Whitefish River system. Part of the lake's southern shore forms the boundary of Killarney Lakelands and Headwaters Provincial Park, an extension of Killarney Provincial Park which was designated in 2006. The lake was originally named Panache, in the Canadian French sense of antlers, for its resemblance to a moose antler. It is not known exactly when the lake was so named, although the name appears on maps of the area dating as far back as 1863. Over time, however, the common English spelling of the name morphed into Penage. More recently, official usage has reverted to the original Panache spelling, although Penage is still sometimes seen in everyday usage. A popular recreational cottage lake in the region, the lake is accessible by two roads, Municipal Road 10 (Panache Lake Road) in Greater Sudbury and Penage Lake Road in Espanola. Much of the lake, however, is accessible only via boat from marinas at the ends of the two access roads. The eastern portion of the lake was served by two full service marinas. Gemmell's and Whitehead's are competing marinas providing car and boat parking, fuel, groceries, bait and water taxi service. Gemmell's changed hands in the fall of 1966 and was purchased by the Lundgren and Sutinen families and was renamed Penage Marina. Whitehead's marina was purchased by Bill Blanchard and then resold to Vic and Judy Erola. In the late-1970s, Delky and Louis Dozzi purchased the Erola interests and renamed the marina Penage Bay Marina. In the early-1970s, the Lundgren's sold out to the Sutinen family. In June 1980 the Dozzi brothers purchased the Penage Marina from the Sutinens and combined the two marinas. After 30 years of ownership, Louis Dozzi sold the Penage Bay Marina in 2007 to Guy Richard. In 2021 Guy sold the marina to Brendan and Alex and was rebranded to Panache Bay Marina. The Panache Campers Association has been in the forefront in providing a safe environment for all on the lake. The Association funds and maintains the hazard beacons on the lake as well as being the stewards for a safe and clean environment for all. See also List of lakes in Ontario References
