City of Orillia: This One's For The Bees
News Release



The City of Orillia is a buzz after receiving a Bee City designation.
 
Orillia received notification of its official status as a Bee City, a designation provided by Bee City Canada, on June 13. The designation acknowledges the efforts of residents and the City to bring awareness to the need for healthy, sustainable habitats for pollinators.
 
"Becoming a Bee City highlights the bee-friendly initiatives the City of Orillia has in place," said Mayor Steve Clarke. "We are pleased to work with the Bee City Working Group to help educate the community regarding the importance of pollinators to the overall health of our area and our planet. We encourage residents and businesses to join us in adopting pollinator-friendly habits throughout Orillia." 
 
Supporting pollinators in City-owned parks and maintained areas has been a focus for City parks crews. The City has more than 70 annual and perennial gardens and two community gardens with pollinator species planted throughout them. In addition, two butterfly gardens have been planted with species to attract butterflies and bees specifically. The City also has more than 140 flowering hanging baskets located in the downtown.  
 
Moving forward, new designs and construction projects will promote the creation of new gardens in parks, recreation centres, parking lots, and other public spaces with the intent to improve pollinator habitats.
 
The City submitted its application to Bee City Canada after a request was submitted by Jeannine Hutty, the Community Stewart of Orillia Bee City.
 
"The Orillia Bee City volunteers, a non-profit group, are very excited to have this designation," said Hutty. "This designation will provide us with access to educational material and other great resources in order to encourage residents to adopt pollinator-friendly habits. Orillia Bee City volunteers will be located at the Orillia Farmers Market on Saturday, June 22 sharing information on bees and other pollinators."
 
Bee City Canada was founded in 2015. Toronto became the first Bee City in Canada in March 2016. There are currently 28 Canadian municipalities with the designation, including Newmarket, Guelph, and King Township.
 
For more information on Orillia's Bee City designation, visit   orillia.ca/communitygardens.

We are proud to announce the first auditions for our upcoming season!

Mariposa Arts Theatre is holding auditions for:

Audition Dates: 
June 22nd, 7pm - 9pm
June 24th, 10am - 4pm

Location:
MAT Warehouse (12 Brammer Dr, Orillia)

In the not-so-distant future, a terrible water shortage and 20-year drought has led to a government ban on private toilets and a proliferation of paid public toilets, owned and operated by a single megalomaniac company: the Urine Good Company. If the poor don't obey the strict laws prohibiting free urination, they'll be sent to the dreaded and mysterious "Urinetown." Well that sounds inviting - so who's with me?? 

We are looking for you to join us on this exciting musical journey to Urinetown this fall with Mariposa Arts Theatre!

PLEASE BOOK AN AUDITION!

For your audition, please wear comfortable clothing and shoes to do some light dancing. Come prepared to sing one song of your choice that best shows your vocal range and ability, and to perform a short monologue (preferably comedic) of your choice as well.
OPTIONAL: you can also prepare a short dance routine showcasing your abilities, if you would like to take the initiative.

For questions, or to book your time, please contact Valerie at 705-792-8010 or  valeriemvenables@hotmail.com.

(If you do not book an audition time, be prepared to wait, as priority will be given to those who have booked a time).

MOU Reinforces Further Collaboration Between City of Orillia and Lakehead University
Media Release





The City of Orillia and Lakehead University have formalized their long-standing relationship with a commitment to ongoing collaboration.
 
Earlier today, City of Orillia Mayor Steve Clarke and Dr. Moira McPherson, President and Vice-Chancellor of Lakehead University, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that outlines the ways that the City of Orillia and Lakehead University will leverage existing and future relationships in order to achieve commons goals.
 
"The City of Orillia and Lakehead University have a well-established, positive relationship that is further reinforced through this MOU," said Mayor Clarke. "Formalizing this relationship enshrines our joint commitment to identify and pursue strategic opportunities for collaboration, partnerships, innovation and incubation. We look forward to the many positive impacts this continued collaboration will have on the Orillia community and broader region."
 
Lakehead University is an economic driver for the city with 82 full-time staff and faculty and 1,350 students who live, work, shop and give back to the community. The University is also home to a wealth of human capital that can help strengthen the community by finding solutions to societal challenges and concerns.
 
"The people and City of Orillia have worked with Lakehead University to create post-secondary opportunities for this region even before we broke ground and opened our doors in Orillia," explained Dr. McPherson. "This MOU formalizes our mutual desire to collaborate further and establish a strong and active partnership that benefits students, faculty, the business community and residents."
 
Areas of possible collaboration between the City and University are outlined in the MOU - from policy development to funding opportunities and entrepreneurship, to international engagement and advocacy with other levels of government. This MOU formalizes and gives momentum to the pursuit of these cooperative efforts and initiatives.

City of Orillia: Annual Treasure Hunt Program
News Release


 
For immediate release (May 16, 2019) - The City of Orillia's Waste Management Advisory Committee (WMAC) annual Treasure Hunt program is returning once again! On the third weekend of the month, from May to October, residents are encouraged to recycle or re-use their large household items. It's like a community garage sale!
 
Residents can leave unwanted, but still useful, household items at the curb after 5 p.m. on the Friday of the event weekend, but must remove all uncollected items by Sunday at 11 p.m. Residents who fail to remove uncollected "treasures" from the curb will be subject to fines pursuant to Chapter 877 of the City of Orillia Municipal Code - Solid Waste Management.
 
"This is a great program as residents have the opportunity to remove their large household items that they may have no use for, and other residents may take an interest in the items. It is simply a win-win for everyone," said Shaun Wakefield, Chair of WMAC.
 
The 2019 Treasure Hunt dates are:
  • June 15-16
  • July 20-21
  • Aug. 17-18
  • Sept. 21-22
  • Oct. 19-20
 
Residents are reminded to take items placed at the curb only. Do not take any items from the lawn. All treasures are claimed in "as is" condition.
 
If residents wish to further embark on a treasure hunt, residents can visit the Waste Diversion Site (100 Kitchener St.). There are a number of different types of items in the City's Reuse Depot to take, free of charge. Items include: household items, such as pictures, furniture, books, paints, stains, car care products, waxes, polishes, paint thinners, home and garden products and more!  The Reuse Depot is open during regular site hours in the summer and closed during the winter.
 
For more details on the City's reuse programs, visit orillia.ca/en/living-here/reuseprograms .

City of Orillia: Seeking Artists To Submit Original Works of Art T0 Be Displayed in The New Orillia Recreation Centre
Submission Deadline August 16th





The City of Orillia is seeking artists to submit original works of art to be displayed in the new Orillia Recreation Centre. 
 
The new Orillia Recreation Centre will feature a free gallery space for artists to display their work. The theme for the gallery's inaugural exhibit is 'From Foundry to Future', which challenges artists to consider the site's transformation from its industrial past to its exciting future as a state-of-the-art sport and recreation facility. 
 
"The site of the new recreation centre has a storied history as a major producer and employer within the City of Orillia. In the 1900s, it produced farming implements, Minnitoys, boating equipment, and even a new metal known as Ductalloy iron," said Mayor Steve Clarke.  "Today, the City has reclaimed the site as a community hub and recreation centre for the benefit of Orillia residents today and for generations to come. Earning Orillia a prestigious Brownie award, the redevelopment of the site is something we can all be very proud of."
 
Artists looking to be featured in the gallery are invited to interpret the theme, either through new or existing work.
 
Design considerations:
  • The gallery is an area located within the lobby of the new recreation centre next to the reception desk. It includes a 25' rail system and 10' ceilings suitable for two-dimensional artwork.
  • Artists can interpret the theme through any subject matter that resonates with meaning for the artist provided it is suitable for display in a public space.
  • Collaborations of two or more artists are welcome.
  • Artwork must be original to the artist(s) and correctly wired so it can be affixed to the existing rail and cable system.
  • Larger horizontal and vertical pieces are preferred. Minimum sizing on any side is 24" (with frame).
 
The competition is open to all artists; however, preference will be given to local/regional artists. Submission requirements are available on our website at orillia.ca/publicart or by contacting the Parks, Recreation and Culture Department at 705-325-4530 or jsoczka@orillia.ca .
 
Deadline:
The deadline for submissions is Aug. 16, 2019.
                             
The City of Orillia is a city of 31,000 people in the heart of Ontario's Lake Country on the shores of Lake Couchiching and Lake Simcoe. Visit our website at orillia.ca.
