The Advocate Podcast – Stories from Kawartha Lakes
Society & Culture
Two years ago, Kevin Fitzpatrick did that thing so many of us were forced to. He pivoted, quickly learning how to deliver a church service into an on-line camera lens. Those skills will serve him well for Christmas 2022. But he’s also embracing a new hybrid version of delivering a sermon – with much of his congregation watching on screens in their individual homes, and some taking it all in the old-fashioned way – from the pews in front of him.
In the wake of what it calls an “emergency” the Trillium Lakelands District School Board is relaxing some of its hiring requirements for the foreseeable future. So, even though you may not have a teaching degree, but feel you have the goods to deliver the goods – in a good way - as a supply teacher, the school board will consider you as a candidate.
You’ve seen the pictures. How can you not? They’re everywhere. And we get the story behind Ken Reid’s illuminating forest that has been lighting up your social media feeds.
