Congratulations to Donna and Andrew Rork of Cottage Toys as they open their spectacular new building in Lakefield.

Located at the corner of Queen and Concession Street in Lakefield, the new building provides 3,000 square feet of indoor space, plus an outdoor pergola covered display area, lots of parking and high visibility for their watersport equipment like kayaks and paddle boards, as well as their multiple clothing and swimwear lines.

The original store at 180 Charlotte St. is still open and fully stocked for Spring and Summer as well. Stop in or visit cottagetoys.ca.

Speaking of the outdoors, Providence in downtown Peterborough has a new patio out back.

Looking a lot like your back deck, owner Mike Watt is grateful to the guys from Lumbermen Carpentry for their creative approach. Celebrating four years in business Mike is always coming up with new stuff, like using off-cuts from Jesse Bateson at Solid Leather to create new products for Providence.
