Succession Planning Presentation
Cottage Succession Planning protects what you love.
Your goal is to protect three things: the people you love, a place you love and the life experiences and cottage memories you have.
By having a solid cottage succession plan in place your heirs avoid common estate and real estate surprises.
You are invited to attend a one hour informative, no sales pitch session on succession planning, Saturday, July 7, 2012 at 1:00 p.m.
The date, location (somewhere in Shawano) and venue details will be confirmed and advertised in the spring 2012 edition of The Loon’s Call, on the two Shawano signboards and on this web site.
Geoffrey Parker, Stonehaven Finanacial Group Inc. will be the guest presenter. Wally Pitt is organizing and will convene this event on behalf of Shawano Ratepayers Inc.
Wally will accept sign ups at any time. Simply e-mail Wally at associates@pitt.ca

Special Waste Pick up Day results (June 11, 2011)
A successful Special Waste Pick up Day was held on Saturday, June 11, 2011 at the Marmora and Lake Sand Storage Yard on North Steenburg Lake Road. The drop off operated from 9:00 a.m. until noon (the bins were actually full by 11:30) and one packer truck, two waste bins and a pick up full of waste was collected.
Our contractor actually had to return for another full bin load later in the day to pick up other waste left at the site.

For the October 1st pick up day please take note of the following.

Bears “Love” Garbage
Recently several garbage bins were toppled, some moved a distance and some destroyed along Skeen Road and Jennison Road. The alleged cultrits are most likely black bears.
As a reminder, and a caution, do not leave garbage for any length of time in any outdoor bin or container. Racoons are destroying plastic garbage pails this spring, but “the big messes” are most likely cause by bear.
Black bear sightings have been reported in the immediate Shawano area.

Dickey Day 2010 was another success. A special Thank you to Mike Noble, organizer & his team & to Lori and Greg Walton for once again hosting this event. More information is contained in the fall 2010 edition of The Loon’s Call.
- SRI Annual General Meeting Saturday, July 24, 2010
The Ridge Church 10:00 a.m.
The 2010 AGM
A less than packed hall, a good agenda, information shared, and in general a very good AGM.
Why the light attendance ? Some regulars were away from the area. Some owners are simply not interested and prefer others “pick up the torch” and do the work. Please folks, if you did not attend do not complain about the efforts of the SRI Directors. There is still time to Volunteer. You may wish to Volunteer in some capacity without being a Director.
- Legends of the Game Golf Tournament Saturday, August 7, 2010
convenors: Bill & Laurie Rothwell
