Blog Guelph: One Week Ago....A Look at Guelph


a look at guelph..., originally uploaded by edeva_art.

If you stood on the Wellington Street Bridge looking up the Speed River toward the River Run Center and the Heffernan Foot Bridge last Wednesday, there was just as much evidence of old man winter as the lovely Miss Spring.

Oh what a difference a week makes.

Blog Guelph: The SPEED River


The SPEED 1531, originally uploaded by blairware.

Blairware illustrates the unusual speediness of the Speed River these days.

Please be mindful of these more dangerous conditions of our waterways - especially if you see kids unaccompanied by adults.

Blog Guelph: Making Tracks


The River is a "Highway", originally uploaded by corbeau_du_nord.

Thanks to Blog Guelph, I've recently become E-quainted with Stephen the Blogger who is making tracks to Guelph for work from his current life in Asia.

If you've been following the Guelph business news you'll know that Guelph based Geosign just landed $160 million in investment for their web based publishing company. Stephen's one of their new top gun hires for the rapidly growing biz.

Read about Stephen's transition to our town from the other side of the world on his Life in Guelph Blog.

Click Corbeau du Nord's pic for details, including Latin names, of the various animal tracks found on the banks of the Speed River.

Blog Guelph: Eramosa and Speed River Bend


next month 1201, originally uploaded by blairware.

The open water is likely a pretty even mix of Eramosa River (arriving into Guelph via Rockwood and Eden Mills) and the Speed River (coming through the north end of Guelph, past the River Run Centre and under our covered bridge).

Many people don't notice or regard our two lovely rivers at all. As water becomes more of an issue for our city, I hope that our waterway appreciation meter notches up and our sense of stewartship improves.

Blog Guelph: River Run Centre


a river runs by it, originally uploaded by downtown_lynn.

Big Ideas are the easy part. Successful implemention is the real meal deal.

Our community had a Big Idea when it decided to create a performing arts centre. The implementation of this idea took a heroic effort over many years.

From the River Run Website: "River Run Centre was built with funding from the City of Guelph, Government of Ontario, Government of Canada, and from more than 1,400 companies, foundations and individuals under the leadership of fundraiser Doug Bridge. The cost to build the centre was close to $15 million. River Run Centre is owned by the City of Guelph and managed under the auspices of the River Run Centre Board of Directors."

Blog Guelph: On The Edge of Speed


* 877, originally uploaded by dezsö.

I'm told through a very reliable source, that source being Stanley, founder of the Annual Stanley’s' Cup Canocky Game, that skating on Allan's Mill Pond rink is happening.

In his email Stan claims, " It has been 5 years since it (the ice) was so good. The only cost of admission is assistance with shoveling when the snow does come."

Allan's Mill Pond is the section of the Speed between the Heffernan Pedestrian Bridge and the Macdonnel Street Bridge, sort of in front of the River Run Centre. Likely all this will be very obvious - what with people skating and all.

Dezso beautifully captured these silly walk-on-thin-ice geese fooling around on yet another section of the Mighty Speed River.
