Vintages …. The last concert in the park presented by The Bobcaygeon Music Council

The last hurrah. It will be on the cool but dry side for the concert tonight. All the more reason to catch the show at the locks. From 6pm until 8pm, Vintages will be performing for a second time this summer and donating their time for a good cause. All monies donated will be going to Bobcaygeon Food Bank…so let’s fill up the yellow buckets. The Lions Club you ask, yes they will be there cooking up a storm! You might want to bring a jacket with your chair and let’s see if Vintages can bring music to dance to if it’s chilly!

In collaboration with the Trillium Lakelands DSB (TLDSB), Kawartha Lakes Bus Lines, and Ontario Provincial Police - Central Region , we’re excited to share that our School Bus Stop Arm Camera pilot program is set to launch at the start of the new school year.

The pilot program was created in direct response to the significant surge of reported incidents from school bus drivers and local residents regarding unsafe practices when a school bus is stopped. In the 2023-24 school year alone, Kawartha Lakes Bus Lines reported 380 incidents of vehicles going through the red lights of a stopped school bus and that's just one of the school bus companies in Kawartha Lakes!

Program details can be found here: https://www.kawarthalakes.ca/en/news/school-bus-stop-arm-camera-program-launches-just-in-time-for-back-to-school.aspx

The Kawartha Lakes Health Care Initiative (KLHCI) is pleased to announce that Dr. Sarah Ebhomien has accepted the practice of Dr. Peter Petrosoniak, effective September 1, 2024.

Dr. Ebhomien received her Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) from the University of Port Harcourt, College of Health Sciences, Port Harcourt, Nigeria in 2012. She, and her family, immigrated to Canada in 2017 and she has just completed a Family Medicine Residency at Western University, London Ontario.

Dr. Ebhomien will be accepting all patients of Dr. Petrosoniak so is unable, at this time, to accept any new patients to the practice.

“KLHCI’s Board of Directors and Recruitment & Retention Coordinator are very pleased with the recruitment of Dr. Ebhomien. We have been working with Dr. Petrosoniak for some time and are happy that he will now be able to enjoy his retirement. We also want to thank Dr. Petrosoniak for the many years of care to his patients, the Kawartha Lakes community, and many hours assisting KLHCI’s overall recruitment efforts,” states Andrew Veale, KLHCI President.

Dr. Peter Petrosoniak states, “Firstly, I think we should feel honoured that Dr. Sarah Ebhomien and her family are choosing the Kawarthas to live in. Secondly, I feel privileged that she chose to take over my practice. I know that my patients will be pleased to have their medical needs addressed by a well-trained, kind and experienced physician. I want to welcome her family to the Kawarthas and her to my practice. I want to particularly thank Cindy Snider of Kawartha Lakes Health Care Initiative, who has worked tirelessly over the years to attract physicians to the Kawartha Lakes, and for her dedication in finding this physician for my practice.”

“I am excited to be providing care to Dr. Petrosoniak’s patients as I begin to know them. My family and I are looking forward to establishing ourselves and setting down roots in the Kawarthas”, states Dr. Ebhomien.
