NAPIER OUTDOORS CELEBRATING 30 YEARS OF ENDLESS ADVENTURES
03 SPOTLIGHT ON NOVEMBER 08 UPCOMING EVENTS
It is great to follow up with previously featured businesses to see how things are going and we just had that opportunity this month with Napier Outdoors when we caught up with Jamie McAvoy, Marketing, Sales and Office Manager for Napier Outdoors. We are still amazed by the story of how Roman Napieraj, the company’s founder, turned a trip to Canadian Tire store to purchase some wooden beams, a tarp, and an air mattress to create his own tent in the back of his truck as a solution for bad allergies has transformed over the years developing into an innovative company celebrating 30 years of endless adventures, epic campsites and shared memories. 76

If you are a whiskey connoisseur, you are going to want to head straight for MingoCreek Craft Distillers inWashington, Pennsylva- nia for an unforgettable, authentic whiskey tasting experience and tour along with a history lesson on “TheWhiskey Rebellion” which was a 1794 uprising of farmers and distillers in western Pennsylva- nia in protest of awhiskey tax enacted by the federal government . Spotlight on Business recently had the pleasure of meeting Jim Hough and hearing the story of how he left his career in computer science and finance to make the leap into entrepreneurship. Our management team recently stayed at the newly branded Inn and they were so impressed with the changes being made to the charming hotel and conference centre that they wanted to sit down with Heidi Sponagle, Director of Sales and Celeste Baxter, General Manager to find out more about the transformation and inspiration behind the new brand.
The summer of 2020, well the whole year for that matter, has been an interesting one that is for sure. We at the magazine are usually running the roads on both sides of the border attending festivals, industry trade shows and conferences to keep on top of what is happening in business and industry. Well let’s just say that COVID-19 has changed that for the time being. But one thing that has stayed the same, or increased if you look at sales numbers, is that people are still enjoying a cold craft beverageor two as we social distance and self-isolate during the pandemic. These are our top picks out of the ice bucket from the summer of 2020 that you should be enjoying all year long.
If you know Aundrea, then you know her dedi- cation for non-surgical medical aesthetics. Her passion for this newfieldofmedicine is driven from seeing her clients, both men and women, achieve the natural and youthful appearance they desire through cosmetic injectables and the impact it has on increasing their self-confidence. We caught up, which is not easy to do, with this energetic entrepreneur in between her travels between Halifax and Truro to learnmore about the person behind Aundrea Nurse Inc.
