This month, we are very sad to announce that our long-time editor, Anneliese Lawton, has decided to step back from her role as editor of the magazine in order to spend more time with her family. We are sad to see her go. She has been a terrificambassador for our brand and we appreciate everything she has done for Look Local and our community.

As the search for her replacement gets underway, our team has rallied around to help produce another issue of Look Local that is chock-a-block full of great seasonal stories. We love this issue as, with Father’s Day coming up, it is deliberately geared towards stories for the guys in our lives.

We have features on some of our top local public golf courses, on some extraordinary new gadgets that the male chefs in the kitchen will want to get their hands on, and a review of some of the “must have” essentials you will need to make the best cocktails and mocktails this summer. And our Shop Local gift ideas are focused on Dad too.

For our Community features, we explain the benefitsof belonging to a local Chamber of Commerce, and describe the options available to you if you are interested in volunteering with a local independent community theatre group.

If you are interested in planning a weekend or a week away in Ontario this summer, you should really consider Prince Edward County. It’s only about 3 hours drive away and has become a fabulous destination for delicious food and wine, relaxation, and enjoying the rural countryside and beaches of Lake Ontario. Read all about it in our Local Getaway feature.

Lastly, the warmer weather is here and that means it is time to enjoy some fresh air, food and drinks on a local patio. We have a selection for you to choose from in our annual Patio Guide, and even more for you to research online at looklocal.ca.

I hope you enjoy reading this issue of Look Local. Happy Spring!
