After winning the Zone H Championship, the 4 Steps to Stardom boys combo team from the Coldwater Bowling Centre advanced to the provincial finals held on Sunday, March 4, 2012 at Roseland Bowl in Burlington, Ontario.
The team consisted of Jack LeBlanc (bantam), Matthew Lapensee (junior) and Trevor Tinney (senior). The Coldwater team were still in the lead after four games and ended up taking silver, losing by only five points in the final fifth game.

The Final Recommendation

—submitted

The ARC process for Moonstone E.S./Coldwater P.S. and Warminster E.S. has now been completed. After eight working meetings and 4 public meetings, the members of the ARC put together their final recommendation.

The ARC process identified the problems which brought these schools into an ARC in the first place. Coldwater P.S. in the near future is facing a problem of under-population by a large number of students due to declining enrolment at that school. Moonstone E.S. has a steady enrolment; however the school was only built for 89 students and therefore has a constant over-capacity. The issues regarding poor programing and poor facility factors at Moonstone E.S. were proven to be unfounded.

Sell Investments for the Right Reasons
It's important to understand which investments to own, and when to buy them. But you should also know when it's time to sell an investment — and why.

Unfortunately, many people sell investments for the wrong reasons. Some people want the money to purchase so-called "hot" investments, even if they aren't appropriate for their needs. Others own investments that have lost value, and fearing further losses, they decide to sell — thereby violating the oldest rule of investing: “Buy low and sell high.”
