Port Matters by Frances Kennedy franceskennedy782@gmail.com All the sights and sounds signal that summer in Port is back in full swing! Soon, wildlife and wild life must co-exist in the great outdoors. Live entertainment in the evenings may ruffle a few feathers but the predawn cacophony of birdsongs
Port’s Main Beach has a continuous record of Blue Flag designation since 2010! No small deal, the international designation is recognition for meeting the highest standards of water quality, environmental management, safety and services. Moreover, just in time for summer, the Port Stanley Village Association rolled out the mobility mats on Little Beach! The mats create a steady and firm pathway across the sand, making access to the water possible for all individuals. The initiative was funded provincially by an Inclusive Community Grant.

So here we are; comings and goings, change disrupts us with promises and losses. What we see is what we seek: and that’s about the lenses of positivity or negativity through which we see our world. It’s easy to focus on what’s not working, but let’s wait for the dust to settle and see what matters now.
