Enticing Cakes Celebrates Their New Location
/Enticing Cakes has opened their doors at their brand new location. They didn't have far to go, as they moved across the road in East City to a bigger spot that better suited their growing bakery. You'll now find them at 57 Hunter Street East. Every little detail was taken into consideration as they renovated their new space, including using wood from the family farm as they worked towards their new look. They've also added a wedding consultation room to plan and book your wedding treats. Owner Sabrina Rowles and the rest of the Enticing Cakes team will be celebrating their two year anniversary in East City next month. Check them out on Facebook and Twitter or give them a call at 705.775.2253.

East City Boy Jonathan Bulman Raising Money For Clean Water Charity
/Jonathan Bulman is 6 years old and lives in Peterborough's East City. His goal this summer is to help make a difference for those around the world that don't have access to clean water. His journey began after conversations with his parents about helping to save water where he can (like when he's brushing his teeth) because not everyone can simply turn on the tap and have clean, ever flowing water. This was a real eye opener for Jonathan and he wanted to do his part to help, so he connected with Charity Water, a non-profit organization that aids in bringing clean, safe drinking water to developing countries. You'll find him fundraising at 286 Mark Street, serving up lemonade along with apples or freezies. His hours come and go based on weather and such, but he'll be running his fundraising drive until mid-September. Head over to Mark Street and donate to his cause. Be sure to ask him about his story and he'll be more than happy to share it. For more information, you can follow him on Twitter or donate online at Jono's Journey.
