Celebrating vintage snowmobiles in VKH

There were some pretty nice vintage snowmobiles that joined the Vintage Snowmobile Run, which started off at the Vankleek Hill Fairgrounds March 8. The day starts off with a breakfast at the Vankleek Hill Fairgrounds organized by Lois Howes and Willou Bernakie.

Several vintage snowmobiles as well as some newer ones got together March 8 for the annual Vintage Snowmobile Run. Organizer Scott Allen, seen here with daughter Becky, says he put the run together just for something to do. “Lots of people had old machines and nowhere to go.” Last year, the run attracted more than 60 snowmobiles with some people coming from as far as Ormstown and Val d’Or. The group travels approximately 25 km through snowmobile trails to a family farmon Greenland Road where they stop for coffee and hot chocolate, then head back. “It takes about an hour or so. Everybody likes it. We don’t go fast, just poke along,” said Allen. “We have prizes for oldest machine, and oldest rider.”

The Vintage Snowmobile Run March 8 brought people from all over to celebrate the day and the machines.

The end of an era for SLC?

Several former and present journalism students gathered at St. Lawrence College (SLC) in Cornwall to celebrate the birthday of program director Terry Tinkess, seen here at the far right.The journalismprogramhas been suspended at SLCmaking this the last year the program will be offered. “Everybody likes to be remembered,” said Tinkess. “It’s always better before it’s on a tombstone.” Alumni from the graduating years of 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, traveling fromHawkesbury, Brockville, Cornwall, and Akwasasne, as well as students from this year, gathered to visit with their favourite professor and remember the work and the fun in the program. “It’s been fun, putting it all together,” said Marc Benoit, current journalism student and student union president. “Seeing the alumni and getting a sense of the history of the program has been great.” Tinkess says that perhaps there will be one more celebration before the program says good-bye for the last time.

A Wee Irish Fest Vankleek Hill, with the help of Excellent Events, will be celebrating St. Patrick’s Day in a big way. St. Pat’s is a tradition celebrated in Champlain Township with green beer, Irish food, Irish music, a parade, and so much more. The festivities start Friday, March 13, with the crown- ing of the King and Queen at the Windsor Tavern. The royal couple will be selected by random ballot. A steak supper, green beer, and great music will accompany the crowning event. The annual St. Patty’s Parade will begin at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 14. Starting at Vankleek Hill Collegiate Institute, the parade will wind its way through the village of Vankleek Hill, stopping in front of The Review offices on Main Street. Floats may be entered into the parade at no cost and a prize will be presented for the best float. After the parade, there will be a celebration at the Windsor Tavern. At 2 p.m., green beer and finger foods will be available. The King and Queen will be present to select the best costumes for men, women and children with prizes for the winners. And on Sunday, an Irish brunch, Irish stew and beer will be available at Beau’s Brewery. And of course, Irish music will be playing throughout the weekend. The Wee Irish Fest is presented by Excellent Events, the Windsor Tavern, Beau’s Brewery, and Cham- plain Township.
