Rice Lake Trivia
There are over 20 islands
in Rice Lake
...and so
your vacation begins!
Yes, that’s right . . . relax looking onto the lake, catch
the early morning mist or anticipate that fish strikeof-the-day! Whatever your vacation dreams are, catch
them here: hiking, golfing, taking in local attractions and
historic towns, or just appreciating the surrounding
beauty of the lake . . . it awaits your arrival!
Rice Lake, part of the international Trent-Severn
Waterway, is 23 miles long , 3 miles across, and home to
over twenty islands of various sizes. Its name is derived
from extensive wild rice beds that once flourished in its
waters at the turn of the century. A shallow fertile lake,
weeds provide coverage and food for plentiful fish.
The rolling hills of surrounding communities provide
beautiful views. A scenic driving tour combined with
visits to the artisan studios and antique shops of nearby
historic towns and villages offers an eclectic experience.
Golf enthusiasts enjoy an array of golf courses with
varying degrees of difficulty, all with wonderful views and
vistas. Naturalists, hikers and cyclists enjoy several forests
and conservation parks with a network of trails and
parkland. It all awaits you at Rice Lake...come and enjoy,
we'd love to have you visit us!
Your Rice Lake vacation guidelines...
Wake up smiling; watch the sun rise and set; take a nap;
feel the lake breeze; make a splash; read a book; converse
with nature, take a walk; listen to the birds; sip a drink;
dance in the sand; relax and be grateful for this day; collect moments, not things. Most importantly, repeat daily!
Enjoy your Rice Lake vacation!

alnwick/haldimand township
The amalgamated municipality of Alnwick/
Haldimand is a favourite destination for
boaters, fishermen, and vacationers. The
former Alnwick Township was incorporated in 1845. The English and Scottish
pioneers who homesteaded in Alnwick
named the Township after the countytown fortress of Northumberland County
in northern England.
The hamlet of Roseneath, called the
Four Corners before the name was
changed by James Campbell and his wife,
who came from Roseneath, Scotland in
1838. A number of buildings from those
pioneer days still exist today.
Alnwick is also one of the relatively
few Ontario townships having an Indian
Reserve within its boundaries. These
Natives are descendants of the mighty
Mississaugas.
There are two Indian craft shops offering many unique gifts.
The former Township of Haldimand
is predominantly rural in character. Many
www.ricelakeinfo.com
residents operate antique shops providing
an active non-intrusive commercial base
for the township.
Grafton is home to architecturally
significant structures like the Haldimand
Hills Spa. The Township offers discovery
by the Waterfront Trail which is designed
for access by car, bike and foot. Along the
route, running parallel to Lake Ontario, is
the wetland preservation area known as
the Nawautin Nature Sanctuary. Hikers can also enjoy Peter’s Woods which
provides some lovely scenic and wooded
areas to explore.
Running north from Cty. Rd. 2 are
some of the most prominent cold water
streams in Canada for salmon and rainbow trout, as well, the Township offers
access to Lake Ontario by way of the
Wicklow Beach boat launch a perennially
popular spot for trout and salmon offshore fishing. The municipality is situated
with Rice Lake at its northern boundary
and Lake Ontario to the south.

A Fantasy Rekindled
Come Visit The Roseneath Carousel!
Winner of the 2010 National Carousel
Association Historic Carousel Award presented
to the Roseneath Carousel 1906 C.W.
Parker for Preserving the Past, Maintaining the Present and Ensuring the Future!
The golden age of carousel production
ended with the Depression of 1929. Most
of the remaining examples of this form of
North American art are found in public
displays and private collections.
The Roseneath Carousel was built in
1906 at Abilene, Kansas, by C.W. Parker, a
manufacturer of amusement rides. Only
four like the Roseneath type were known
to be made in North America and the
Roseneath Carousel is stamped number
three on the ring gear. The Carousel consists of 40 basswood horses and 2 boats,
with Herschell/Spillman or Armitage/
Herschell on the centre row and Parker
Jumpers on the outside and inside rows.
The music is provided by a 125
Wurlitzer Military Band organ—Serial
#4018 (one of only three number 125
Wurlitzer band organs in active use today)—built in 1934, complete with paper
rolls to usher out the nostalgic music.
After the carousel left the C.W. Parker
plant in Abilene, there are a few gaps in its
history. It eventually surfaced at Mohawk
Park in Brantford, Ontario, and in 1932 it
was purchased by the Roseneath Agricultural Society for $675.00.
Throughout the years maintenance
12
work was done on the mechanical parts
of the carousel by local tradespeople, and
students repainted the horses. By 1986,
the ancient ride no longer met Ontario’s
safety standards.
A group of dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers organized the Carousel
Restoration committee, and embarked
on a massive $400,000.00 fund raising
campaign to restore the relic to its original
condition under the expert hands of master carver Konstantin von Waldburg.
July 17, 1993 marked the grand reopening of this museum quality, ridable
carousel housed in the sixteen-sided building (which was the building constructed
around the carousel when it was located
to the Roseneath fairgounds in 1932).
In 1998, the original Carousel building
underwent significant repairs. A total
of $25,000 was spent to install a new
foundation, a complete cement floor and
new exterior boards to replace those
destroyed by age.
Renovations to the original building
built in 1932 are desperately required to
house and protect the restored Carousel.
Become a FRIEND OF THE ROSENEATH
CAROUSEL. Your donation will assist in
efforts to preserve and operate the Carousel – a precious reminder of days gone
by in rural Ontario.

HAMILTON TOWNSHIP
Settlement of the township began in the
late 1700’s and on February 14th, 1791
the township was officially named after
Henry Hamilton, Lieutenant Governor of
Quebec. “By land and water we flourish”
is an expression of the Township’s history
and ongoing character, as well as its motto.
The township has a rural charm and
consists of six hamlets Baltimore, Bewdley,
Camborne, Cold Springs, Gore’s Landing and Harwood. It is bounded on the
north by the famous Rice Lake and to the
south by Lake Ontario and the Town of
Cobourg.
The township is surrounded by
interesting historical attractions. There is a
14
Joseph Scriven Monument which recognizes Joseph Scriven who wrote the hymn,
“What a Friend We Have in Jesus”; Mount
Ararat, the highest point of the Rice Lake
plains and home in 1849 to early Canadian
writer Catherine Parr Traill; the CobourgPeterborough Railroad Causeway that
once crossed Rice Lake where partially
submerged remains are still visible.
A visit to Hamilton Township offers
an incredible diversity of attractions for
visitors with Rice Lake being the main
attraction appealing to fishermen, nature
lovers, water sports enthusiasts, and the
many people who simply wish to get away,
get some fresh air, sunshine and just relax.

Taking Precautions in the Sun
Simple measures can be taken to minimize damaging UV radiation that penetrates the skin while outside. The sun’s
rays are strongest between 10 a.m. and 4
p.m. Avoid being in the sun during those
times. Be aware that you can get an extra
dose of UV when you’re around surfaces
that reflect light including water, sand, and
snow. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen
with a minimum of SPF 30 every day.
Broad-spectrum sunscreens block UVA
and UVB. Know how to apply sunscreen
correctly and reapply often. Protect your
face and neck by wearing a wide-brimmed
hat with at least a 4-inch brim all the way
around. Wear loose-fitting clothes with a
tight weave that cover as much of your
body as possible. Protect your eyes with
sunglasses that block 99% to 100% of
UVA and UVB rays.

Rice Lake Trivia
A railway once crossed the
Lake from Harwood
to Hiawatha
Historical drive
Rice Lake abounds in history. The hamlets,
villages and towns that surround the lake
remind one of the triumphs of previous
generations. No matter from where you
set out you will be met with rounded hills
and broad vales which were formed from
the terminal moraine of the Ice Age many
thousands of years ago. Each road that
winds through the hills and valleys was
once a mere dirt trail, dusty in drought and
rutty in rainy seasons. Today, many of these
roads are paved; however, the charms of
yesteryear are strong and compelling.
Let’s start our tour in Bewdley, located on the west end of Rice Lake named
in 1833 by William Bancks, who arrived in
Canada from Bewdley, England about 1831.
It was originally the site of an Indian settlement, and was thought to be a stopping
place of the Mound Builders when they
travelled to Ohio via the Ganaraska trail
or portage from Rice Lake to Port Hope.
Today, Bewdley caters to the many tourists
who come to Rice Lake to enjoy the lake’s
fishing and vacation activities.
Going north on Cty. Rd 28 you come
to Bailieboro. Until 1861 was called
Bloomfield. Bailieboro was named after Bailieborough in County Cavan, Ireland, 40 km.
west of Dundalk. Turning east at Bailieboro
onto Cty. Rd. 2 will take you along the
north shore of the Lake.
Hiawatha, situated on the north
shore lies at the mouth of the Otonabee
River as it flows into Rice Lake. The place
was first called the Rice Lake Indian Village.
It received its present name from H.R.H.
Edward, Prince of Wales, during his 1860
tour. It is named after Henry Wadsworth
18
Longfellow’s epic poem the Song of
Hiawatha, published in 1855. The hero of
the poem is the legendary co-creator (the
other one being Dekamahwideth) of the
League of Five Nations, or Iroquois. He
represented all the best features of human
accomplishment. Of particular interest here
is the lovely, white, framed church which
dates back to 1823 when the area including the church was an early native encampment. Hiawatha is also the point where the
Cobourg-Peterborough Railroad crossed
Rice Lake from Harwood. Today, only part
of the rail bed remains visible.
Still travelling on Cty. Rd. 2, the next
point of interest is Keene. It was first
called Gilchrist’s Mills in 1825 after its
founder Dr. John Gilchrist. It was named
Otanabee in 1832, and later corrected to
Otonabee. Gilchrist renamed it Keene in
1858 for his home town in New Hampshire, 40 km. west of Manchester. It is an
attractive village bordering the Indian River.
One of the first curling clubs in Ontario
was formed at Keene in 1861, and for half
a century it was a top club in the province.
Continuing east on Cty. Rd. 2 through
rolling farmland you will come to Hastings, where Rice Lake empties into the
Trent River. The village (1874) of Hastings,
on the Trent River, was first called Crook’s
Rapids, after James Crooks who built a grist
mill here in 1827. The mill was sold in 1851
to Henry Fowlds, who named the place
Hastings for Flora Muir Campbell, Countess
of Ludoun, and the wife of the Marques of
Hastings. The first dam on the Trent-Severn
Waterway was constructed here in 1838.
The village is a port-of-call for visitors
www.ricelakeinfo.com
Rice Lake Trivia
Joseph Scriven wrote the
hymn “What a Friend We
Have in Jesus”
around the Lake
enjoying a boating vacation along the 240
mile Trent-Severn Waterway passage from
Lake Ontario to Georgian Bay and Lake
Huron.
Heading south on Hwy. 45 from Hastings continue to the village of Roseneath known for its fantastic annual fall
fair and historical Roseneath Carousel.
This Carousel was built in 1906 at Abilene,
Kansas, by C.W. Parker, a manufacturer
of amusement rides. Only four like the
Roseneath type were known to be made
in North America and the number three is
stamped on the ring gear. A group of dedicated volunteers has worked hard over
the years to make the Carousel a working
piece of history.You can ride the Carousel
– a precious reminder of days gone by in
rural Ontario.
South of Roseneath is Alderville, a
First Nation, relocated from Quinte Region
in 1837. It was established on about 3000
acres stretching from Rice Lake inland
over prairie lands and woods to both sides
of what is now County Road 45. At the
junction of Rice Lake Road and Cty. Rd.
45 is the unique monument the members
of the Alderville First Nation erected to
honour of all those who fought in the two
world wars. Here are excellent curio shops
where you can buy well-made handicrafts
of leather, bark, feathers and beads.
At this junction turn west onto Cty. Rd.
18 where you will come to Harwood,
situated on the south shore of Rice Lake. It
was first called Sully by Cobourg entrepreneur and owner of the steamboat Pemedash, James Grey Bethune, to honour his
illustrious ancestor, Maximilien de Bethune,
www.ricelakeinfo.com
Duc de Sully. In 1854 it was later named
for Robert Harwood, an early property
owner from Lower Canada. In its day it
was a bustling community with several inns,
a paper mill, and various saw mills, a ferry
service running between Cobourg, Sully
and Peterborough. Today, only a few signs
are visible of a once bustling industry but
you can still see evidence of the CobourgPeterborough Railroad causeway that once
crossed Rice Lake. The last train crossed
the causeway in 1860. Some partially submerged remains of the old causeway from
Harwood to Tic Island can still be seen.
As you travel west on Cty. Rd. 18, the
next port-of-call is Gores Landing,
situated on the south shore of Rice Lake,
north of Cobourg. The area was first called
Sidey`s Tavern, then Claverton. The present
village was named after its founder Thomas
Sinclair Gore, a civil engineer from Ireland,
who built a plank road from Cobourg
to his property on Rice Lake during the
1840s. For over a hundred years, Gore’s
Landing was an important canoe and
boatbuilding centre. One of the builders,
Daniel Herald, is thought to have built one
of the first board canoes in the Kawartha
region. His canoe known as “Herald’s
Patent Cedar Canoe” was a double cedar
canoe, planked inside and outside. In the
late 1800s this canoe won many medals for
Herald at international exhibitions. Today,
Gore’s Landing is a port-of-call for boaters
as they travel Rice Lake and the TrentSevern. Throughout your drive around the
lake, depending on the time of year, you will
experience many breath-taking views of
the lake so bring your camera!

Have Fun Fly Fishing for Panfish
Panfish—perch, sunfish, bluegills and crappie are fun fish to catch. Using a fly rod can be
exciting and fun for all ages! Purchasing a pre-packaged rod, reel and line is a great way
for a beginner to start, ensuring that the equipment is properly matched and balanced.
Local fishing shops or on-line retailers are great resources to research your options.
You may decide to purchase items separately. Regardless, choosing a rod, reel and line
need not be expensive.
Most fly rods today are made of
graphite which are lightweight, strong
and will consistently cast your fly. A
good quality graphite rod should come
with a lifetime warranty. The purpose of
the fly fishing rod is to cast the fly to a
fish target. Because the fly at the end of
the line is very light, the line must have
weight in order to case the distance.
Regular fishing rods & reels (spinning/bait
casters) rely on the weight of the lure to
reach the fish target. Rod length ranges
from 7' to over 10' and comes in several
sections for easy storage and transportation. The shorter the rod length
the shorter the casting distance, the
longer the rod the greater the casting
distance. Rods come in slow, medium and
fast action meaning rod flexibility when
a fish is on. Slow action rods provide a
whippy action and can be difficult to cast;
medium will bend near the middle of the
rod; and fast action is stiff and has the
least amount of bend. Beginners may find
the fast action a little easier and more
accurate when casting, ultimately landing
their catch.
The reel holds your fly line and helps
you keep pressure on the fish during the
catching and landing of your fish. Reels
can be made from graphite, titanium and
24
aluminum. What’s important about the
reel is its ability to keep constant pressure (the drag) on your catch preventing
it from breaking your leader. The drag
can be set for personal preference –
tight or not.You will need to experiment
as you become more comfortable with
your reel.
The line is the most important part
of your equipment. Manufacturers use
a designation for fly lines based on the
taper of the line which is the diameter of
the line. Lines can be classified as double
taper, weight forward, and triangle taper.
Consulting with someone familiar with
fly fishing should be your first stop in
choosing the correct line to ensure that
you match your line weight with the type
of fishing you will be doing along with
your rod and reel. As well, a leader and
tippet are required for a smooth and
invisible presentation of your fly.
Choosing a fly that is small enough
for those panfish to strike is important
because fish like crappie and sunfish have
small mouths. If one fly does not bring
results, try something different – change
colour or style.You will soon discover
that you may need to make little changes
in things to get results. But most importantly be patient and have fun!

Massage and Vacation . . . a great combination!
Massage Therapy is the manipulation of
soft tissues and joints in the body. It can
treat a variety of conditions from muscular
injuries, chronic pain syndromes and the
physical discomforts of everyday stresses.
A Registered Massage Therapist (RMT)
is a recognized healthcare professional
who has completed a 2-3 year program
and successfully passed provincial examinations. RMTs can provide receipts for
service that will be recognized by many
extended healthcare benefit plans.
It is important to take some time for
yourself to unwind and allow your body
to heal from regular daily stresses. Vacationing is a wonderful way to take time
away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Having a massage while away on
vacation is the ultimate relaxation.
In-home / on-site Massage Therapy
brings the relaxation to a whole new
level. Imagine a massage in the comfort of
your own home or vacation retreat with
the table, linens, and oils brought to you.
Afterward throw on a robe, curl up with
a good book or just relax in a comfortable chair overlooking the water. You can
extend health benefits of the massage by
simply continuing to relax.
Consider an RMT who provides onsite massage, especially while vacationing
along the shores of Rice Lake!
Northumberland Mobile Massage Therapy is a husband
and wife team providing Massage Therapy within
Northumberland County since 2000. They can be

The Trent-Severn Waterway
The Trent-Severn Waterway is a picturesque
386 km (240 miles) connection between the
Georgian Bay and Lake Ontario. The route
passes through many locks, including two of
the highest hydraulic lift locks in the world, one
being Lock 21 in Peterborough. The Otonabee
River is short in length and is actually two very
different rivers. The upper portion runs from
Katchiwanooka Lake to Peterborough’s Little
Lake, and is surrounded by limestone and
cedar lined shores. The lower level travels
along treed shorelines to Rice Lake. The Otonabee River is part of the Trent-Severn Waterway system and flows into Rice Lake. Hastings
is where Rice Lake flows into the Trent River.

Local Pioneer Living Brought to Life
Sisters of the Wilderness –
the Lives of Susanna Moodie and Catharine Parr Traill
Charlotte Gray
Can you imagine living
in the early 1800s? How
would you have coped
in a country you thought
would be “the land of
hope; here everything is
new; ... they must keep
advancing ...” only to arrive from England
to discover yourself standing in “the land
of stumps” on the Rice Lake Plains, south
shore of Rice Lake, north of Cobourg.
Sisters In the Wilderness – the Lives of
Susanna Moodie and Catharine Parr Traill a
book written by Charlotte Gray in 1999
has brought these two pioneering sister
writers to life, detailing their respective
emigration from England to Canada in
1832 and living in the Lakefield, Peterborough, and Rice Lake areas.
Charlotte Gray follows their lives as
they struggle with the pioneering way of
life in rural Ontario in the early 1800s. The
two youngest girls of a family of eight (6
girls, 2 boys), Catharine and Susanna, lived
a comfortable life in rural Suffolk, England.
With opposite personalities, Susanna, a
year older, was “red-haired and shorttempered” while Catharine was a cheerful,
loving child with a sunny and confident
disposition. Gray describes their lives in
wilderness Ontario, offering insight into
how each woman sees and handles the
extreme hardships they encountered.
Catharine Parr Strickland Traill was
born in London, England in 1802 to
Thomas and Elizabeth Strickland. Five of
her seven siblings became writers.
Author Charlotte Gray “breathes new
life into two remarkable characters and
brings us a brilliantly clear picture of life
in the backwoods and clearings of Upper
Canada”. Using correspondence and
personal papers of Susanna and Catharine
along with meticulous research, the author
reveals the difficult lives of both sisters as
they coped in the wilds of Ontario.
Sisters in Two Worlds
Michael Peterman
This visual biography
takes an informative
new look at two of his
country’s seminal writers, Susanna Moodie
and Catharine Parr
Traill. Containing two hundred colour and
black-and-white images, some neverbefore published, the book chronicles the
lives of two exceptional and inspirational
women and captures a remarkable tapestry of life in early Canada. Their childhood
was spent in a manor house in the Suffolk
www.ricelakeinfo.com
countryside. But in 1832 the aspiring
young authors Susanna and Catharine
crossed the Atlantic to embark on new
lives, raising families in the strange and unfamiliar backwoods of Upper Canada. By
the light of homemade candles, the sisters
wrote about their experiences, producing
such enduring classics as Roughing it in the
Bush and Catharine’s beautifully illustrated
books on Canadian plants and wildflowers were the first of their kind. Author
Michael Peterman is Canada’s foremost
Moodie/Traill scholar.
