Cycling adventure overnighting in Iroquois
Iroquois is one of three overnight stops for the Great Waterfront Trail Adventure which started Monday at Brighton.
Over 120 cyclists will roll into the Iroquois Campground August 14, for an overnight stay.
This is the first time South Dundas has hosted the Great Waterfront Trail campers.
The Great Waterfront Trail adventure is a cycling getaway along Ontario’s Waterfront Trail, a 1,400 signed route along Ontario’s Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River.
The trail highlights many cycling tourism destinations in the province and puts local communities on the map for tourists looking to explore the region.
“Cycling tourism is growing in popularity because of its great health benefits and scenic travel opportunities,” said Anna Halkidis, manager of operations for CAA South Central Region, which is supporting the ride. She is also participating.
This five day tour will take the cyclists from Brighton to Cornwall.
The final day of the trip starts in Iroquois and ends in Cornwall.
Marlaine Koehler, executive director of the Waterfront Regeneration Trust is pleased that CAA chooses to host this type of vacation along Ontario’s Waterfront Trail.
“This speaks volumes to the quality of experience that we offer in our own backyard and the growing opportunity for local communities to tap into the international cycle tourism market,” she said in an August 11, media release.
During this trip, overnight stays are at Picton, Kingston, Gananoque and Iroquois.

Behind the scenes at WDMH
Working behind the scenes at Winchester District Memorial Hospital (WDMH) is a group of people who really makes things tick.
Officially, they are known as administrative and health information professionals, but we call them the backbone of the hospital. Both teams are celebrating their annual recognition weeks.
Our health records team brings more than 60 years of combined experience to the job and is responsible for everything related to the patient health record.
They are graduates of college or university-level health information programs and must maintain professional certification. A key part of their job is the statistical and clinical information analysis that is so important to ensuring the very best care.
Our administrative team of about 35 professionals includes executive assistants, business unit clerks, payroll clerk, scheduling clerk, ward clerks and finance clerks.
They handle everything from board minutes to financial transactions to scheduling staff to care for our patients. Technology has become an integral tool for this group as their job responsibilities expand. And they are definitely up for the challenge.
“Our health records and administration teams remain the steady pulse of our organization,” noted Cholly Boland, CEO. “Their competent work behind the scenes does not go unnoticed and we want to thank them for their hard work.”
