Returning to My Roots...

This morning while on my journey taking Quinn to preschool, I found these unique moments to photograph. This is how I got started in photography capturing nature and unique places.
Sometimes, I forget how great it is to get out and wander through the woods or down the beach to capture those amazing everyday moments in nature. Here's some of what I captured this morning.









I hope you had a good morning.

Cheers,
Kate

Wasaga Beach Women's Business Association president Wendy Sherk (left) and fellow member Liz Cunningham are preparing for the Business Show on Sun., Mar. 29. They both work as sales representatives for the Wasaga Sun and will be at the show promoting products created by Metroland North Media.

More than 70 local businesses are set to promote themselves at the Wasaga Beach Business Show on March 29.

The business show was created in 2007. It is now in its third year and is presented by the Wasaga Beach Women's Business Association and the Wasaga Beach Chamber of Commerce.

Wasaga Beach Women's Business Association president and Wasaga Sun sales representative Wendy Sherk said this year's show sold out weeks ago and they now have a waiting list.

"We've had a tremendous response to this year's business show," said Sherk. "The success of the past two shows proves that it is well attended and well received in the community. This year's show will be even bigger and better."

The trade show offers local businesses an opportunity to promote their services and products during an event that offers the public an opportunity for one-stop browsing.

The show will feature several business sectors, including real estate, financial institutions, restaurants, trades, health care workers, media, insurance agents, home improvement specialists and much more.

Sherk said the show will feature many new businesses and some that are well established in the community. She said each vendor will have a 10-by-six-foot space to offer demonstrations and feature products.

Sherk said the show also offers people an opportunity to meet some of the business owners.

The Lioness Club will be operating a canteen offering lunch and refreshments.

The Business Show takes place at the RecPlex on Sun., March 29 from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. Free admission. Many businesses will be offering draws and promotions throughout the day.






Hope to see you on Sunday!
Cheers,
Kate & Andrew
