This week we recorded the show on-location at Dows Lake. I hosted the show from the warm interior of the Pavillion while David Rutherford ventured out on the ice to speek to skaters. We covered what was happening for the last weekend of Winterlude and took a look ahead to some of the Canal-related events you can take in with your family during March break. As always, I would really like to hear your feedback on the podcast (mckay@podcastproducer.ca). I'd also encourage you to click on the free subscription link so you'll download automatically each new episode (we post on Mondays). If you're unsure about how to do that and what software you can use to listen to podcasts, click on the Resources tab at www.podcastproducer.ca.  See ya next week. John. This week's sponsor: Glebe Community Tree The National Capital Commission report we discussed:Climate Change: A Long-Term Strategic Issue for the NCC. Implications for Recreation-Tourism Business Lines (PDF) March break at the Bytown Museum  March break activities at the Heritage House Museum in Smiths Falls Weather forecasts: Environment Canada and the Weather Network The National Capital Commission's ice conditions report The 175th Anniversary of the Rideau Canal - Rideau 175 Last weekâs trivia question was: how many lock stations are there on the canal, 24, 34 or 44? The answer is 24. This week's question is: what year was the first official opening of the canal. Send you name, address and telephone number to mckay@podcastproducer.ca and we'll randomly select a winner from the correct entries who will receive a free video rental from Alpha AV at 859 Bank Street (Bank and Fifth). The winner will be announced next week. Please feel free to post comments to this blog by click on "Comments" below. You may also wish to consider recording some audio comments (wave or MP3 format please) and e-mailing them to the e-mail address above. We will play some of them on the show.
