As many residents know, the Kozak's boathouse and property was hit by a tornado last week . A heritage light fixture and hydro pole came down in the storm on the roadside of their property on Lake Avenue. The pole was going to be put up again by Hydro on Monday (yesterday) but when they hydro worker came, the heritage light fixture had been removed from the Kozak's lawn. The heritage of our community is so important to many of our residents. We are asking that whoever removed the light fixture please return it to where it was taken from so it can be reinstalled by hydro. Let's all please remember to be kind and respectful to our neighbours in our community. Thank you.

Canada Day is almost upon us and I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that I will miss the fireworks at Garnet Graham Park in Fenelon Falls and at Bobcaygeon Beach Park! There hasn't been a Canada Day that hasn't been celebrated during my lifetime. That said, many people will want to have their own celebrations, complete with personal fireworks. The CoKL Fire Department is discouraging this practice. In the hands of an inexperienced person, personal fireworks can be quite dangerous. Please stick to sparklers! https://www.kawartha411.ca//fire-department-discouraging/

Hello Sturgeon Pointers! A writer for Cottage Life magazine has contacted me about the tornado that touched down and took out the Kozak's boathouse. He will be calling me to get the scoop and I've been in Toronto. Any comments and information will be greatly appreciated! Madison Kozak - any input?... Vanessa Dewson Photography ? Thank you.

Bears have been seen in the Point! An important reminder about bear safety. Last night a large adult bear and three yearling bears were seen in the Point dining at a resident's bird feeder. From the amount of garbage strewn onto Irene Avenue this morning it was clear the bears had been through the Point. Garbage collection is pretty early (starting at 7am) and apparently the driver is now picking up on both sides of the street at the same time. Some residents may be puttin...g garbage out the night before so they don't miss pick up and this is attracting the bears. The resident called the Bear Wise line (1-866-514-2327) and a Ministry of Natural Resources agent took the information and created a report. She was asked to take the bird feeder down as the bears will return to their food source until they find they cannot get anything at that location any longer. Please remember to remove your bird feeders and only put garbage out the morning of pick up. If you see a bear, please call the Bear Wise line at 1-866-514-2327 and file a report. They will track the number of incidents and be able to act should there be a safety risk. If there is immediate danger, please call 9-1-1. The Bear Wise information is also on the SPA website at https://www.sturgeonpoint.com/community/safety-at-the-point/
