Frank Philips Seaforth Local students run their own fashion businesses this summer By Jason Middleton Expositor Staff While most students struggle to find a summer job, let alone anything they enjoy, two local teenagers are making the most of their summer break by running their own businesses. Both Elise Ringgenberg, of the Seaforth-area, and Kim Krempien, of Mitchell, have taken their love for fashion and used it to create a summer job by participating in the 2005 Summer Company Program sponsored by the Ontario government. Ringgenberg, who operates Elysee Sewing Workshop, said that she first heard about the program on the radio and phoned for more information. With her $1,500 for start- up supplied by the program, Ringgenberg said that she brought fabrics, a chair, a desk, wall storage and had to spend $200 on advertising and business registration. Although she is planning on going into microbiology at the University of Guelph in September, Ringgenberg said her summer job is a great way to make some money. "People at school would always say 'I like your clothes. Where did you get them?' and I would always tell them I made them," Ringgenberg said, adding that students from the school started asking her to make clothes for them. "It just started guess," she said. Ringgenberg said she designed clothes for the school's formal and fashion show. The Summer Company Program is designed to inspire young people between the ages of 15 and 29 to choose entrepreneurship as a career. This summer, the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade awarded 300 summer company grants. Each student participating in the program had to submit a comprehensive business plan with their application and also had to go through an interview. Training and mentoring is also part of the program where students will learn about record keeping and achieving business goals in courses set up at the Huron Business Centre. Ringgenberg said that she first learned tosew when she was six or seven years old living in Switzerland from her mother who is trained as a professional seamstress. Since then, Ringgenberg said that she has continued to sew and started designing her own clothes in highschool. "When I go in stores I'm really picky. I won't find many things that I like," she said. "When I go home, I can combine what ever I saw in the stores and, make it however I want it." Running Spiffy Clothing, Krempien is manufacturing and retailing men's and women's clothing and Elise Ringgenberg, of the Seaforth-area, recently after winning the 2005 Summer Company Program. accessories. Quoted `People at school would always say 'I like your clothes. Where did you get them?' and I would always tell them I made them,'— Elise Ringgenberg on its own I She is planning to market her garments through a series of fashion shows held at her parent's yoga studio in downtown Stratford. Krempien will focus on trousers, simple jersey tops. easy skirts and line of bathing suits. Jason Middleton photo opened her own summer business So far this summer Ringgenberg said that she has been pretty busy but is still looking for some customers. The hardest part about running her own business, Ringgenberg said, is bookkeeping. "I know with the start-up budget I had to keep all the invoices and be on top of all the money that went into my business," she said. After working with a budget and keeping track of expenses, Ringgenberg said that she has more respect for the bookkeeping that is done on her family's farm. As part of the requirements of the summer company program, Ringgenberg cannot work more than 10 hours a week at another job. Her second job is working as a waitress at the Walton Inn. She said that a lot of her friends are envious of her this summer because she gets to work from home. "They always have to do other work like work in a pig barn or work in some store," Ringgenberg said. "I get to hang out at home and work on my own hours. They (her friends) think it's pretty cool. 7 MUNICIPALITY OF HURON EAST CLASS ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT FOR REPLACEMENT OF TRUNK SANITARY SEWERS COMMUNITY OF SEAFORTH PUBLIC COMMENT INVITED The Municipality of Huron East is planning to upgrade the sanitary sewage system in the community of Seaforth by replacing trunk sanitary sewers in the southern part of the community. At this time, a preferred strategy for the planned sewer replacements has been developed. The key components of the plan are outlined below and generally illustrated on the accompanying key plan. Proposed Replacement Plan: Replace existing trunk sewers situated along Coleman Street and sections of Crombie Street with larger diameter sewers. The new trunk sewers would be constructed within the existing road allowances and would be designed to accommodate existing and future development within the related sanitary catchment areas. Construct a new trunk sewer from a connection point near the intersection of Crombie and Coleman Streets to an existing trunk sewer located along Oak Street. This 270 m ± section of sewer would replace an existing trunk sewer which extends between the Crombie Street/ Coleman Street intersection and Oak Street (beneath Silver Creek). The new sewer would be constricted within both existing and new servicing easements. The project is following the planning process set out for Schedule B activities under the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) document. Schedule B projects are approved subject to a screening process. The purpose of the screening process is to identify any potential environmental impacts associated with the proposed works and to plan for appropriate mitigation of any impacts. The process includes consultation with the public. stakeholders and government review agencies.
