Sunday, July 1st is Canada Day in Kanata! Organized by a dedicated and hardworkingvolunteer committee, it takes place at Walter Baker Park (just off Terry Fox Dr. at Maple Grove Rd.). The park will be alive with activity all day. Ill be going to the Seniors Breakfast at 9 am and then will be at my tent from about 1 pm to 6 pm. Ill have again maple leaf tattoos for everyone (until supplies run out) and will be happy to meet you there. More than 30,000 people of all ages enjoy our fabulous Canada Day right here in Kanata, particularly families, as it is a safe place for young children. Enjoy entertainment all day, and a childrens play area with face painting, crafts, bouncies and more. Also, there will be a food court, exhibits, entertainment including Crash the Clown and the Suburban Monkeys, a mechanical bull, a midway, plus other fun activities. For information about the many acts on the main stage go to http://www.canadadayinkanata.com. The day ends with a great fireworks display. See you there!
CYCLING
There are a lot of people using bicycles who are failing to follow the rules of the road. Bicycles are vehicles and cyclists have the same rights and responsibilities as motorists! Please ensure that all members of your family are familiar with the following: - Bicycles must have an operating bell and on joint paths, e.g. in parks, cyclists must use their bells to warn pedestrians that they are being approached. - Stop at all stop signs and red lights. - Cycle on the right side of the road. - Ride on the road, not the sidewalk. - Use proper lighting when riding at night. - Use proper hand signalling when turning and stopping. - Remember to wear a CSA certified helmet (it's the law for cyclists under the age of 18). - Be predictable in traffic - ride in a straight line - ride at least one meter from the curb. - Give pedestrians the right of way. - Always shoulder check when turning. - Ride defensively.
NOTES
At the Transportation Committee on July 4th a report will be considered recommending the purchase of lands near Terry Fox Dr. for a future Park and Ride. A new, large Park and Ride in that area will free up many spaces at the Eagleson Park and Ride. Once developed, staff have indicated that there will be express service from that location to downtown.
