Summer is coming. Woohoo. I'm amazed how many events are happening in our nation's capital this year as we celebrate Canada's 150th. I'm looking forward to attending a few, but a lot of the small towns around the valley are also celebrating, and these ones I really look forward to. If you are planning to do some exploring this summer, I think that you will find some great information in this issue of Bounder and hope that you get out there and enjoy this great area in which we live and play. Have a great summer…and watch out for motorcycles.
   
In this first issue of Bounder for 2017, you will find all the vital information you car enthusiasts will need for the car show season We also have some great information on a growing problem in eastern Ontario, namely ticks and how anyone that enjoys the outdoors must pay attention to these Lyme carrying insects. This being the 150th birthday of Canada, there are tons of events happening in our country and I anticipate a very busy summer for everyone. We plan to hit some of the outdoor concerts, especially Kemptville Live. We are also planning a fishing trip to Temagami and the Queen Charlotte Islands in BC. Did I mention that you only live once?

We have already committed our event trailer and stage and are dedicated to producing an even bigger Bounder in 2017. Thank you to all our loyal readers and a huge thank you to our advertisers who, without them, there would not be a Bounder magazine. See you again next year, folks!
   
Fall 2016 Edition
As usual, we have most of our feature writers in this
issue, and a couple of new ones. It's getting harder to
decide what to put in as we seem to get more and
more suggestions for story lines. The best part is that we already have some of the editorial lined up for the winter music edition that is out early December. It was great connecting with many of you, our readers, at many of the outdoor events that we attended. Looking forward to seeing you at the Ultimate Man Show in November. Until then, enjoy our latest issue.
