A DIFFERENT KIND OF ICE CONIPANY
ICECULTURE INC., HENSALL
Iceculture Inc has been in the hospitality ice business for 20 years. What started
as a hobby producing crystal clear ice bowls has developed into a business with a staff
of 60 serving markets in more than 50 countries around the world.
Iceculture has three divisions — 1) a manufacturing plant to produce crystal clear
ice blocks 2) an R&D division which develops machinery and equipment for the ice industry and 3) a
carving services division which takes company staff all over North America and overseas.
Women hold key positions in the company, having responsibilities in management and administration, production, ship-
ping, design, sales, CNC technology and traditional ice carving.
Women are also well represented in the operations group who deliver and set up ice sculptures at special events all
across the US and Canada, and are also involved with large-scale projects elsewhere in the world — the latest being the con-
struction of the ice restaurant in Dubai. Congratulations everyone!!

Teresa Ondrejicka, Sales Manager, Parkbridge Lifestyle Communities -
includes Huron Village Green, Riverview Estates and Northville Estates. Teresa
brings 30 years of solid real estate experience to a position that involves re-
sales and total home renovation projects along with marketing and promotion
for the communities.
As a child, Teresa remembers driving by Huron Village Green with her dad
and imagining it to be full of dollhouses, all neatly in a row with little trees and
well manicured lawns everywhere you looked. 40 years later, Huron Village
Green has a rich historial past and is now being converted to a charming coun-
try village.
Teresa views this project as one that encompasses a lot of the values she
holds near and dear to her. Firstly, it's a very green and environmentally correct
project - restoring homes from the past and giving them a current and updated
look by offering such things as total exterior renovations, new sunrooms,
kitchens and bathrooms. This is certainly a better idea then demolishing them
and starting over especially when the homes were well built and have many
years of life left in them. Secondly, this is a project that can be termed afford-
able housing friendly with prices starting at $69,900 so it opens the doors to
many more people. Thirdly, it is green in every sense of the word. Thousands of
trees, large open geenspaces and plans to reforest this urban setting appeals to
her many years of association with the Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority.
Working for Parkbridge Lifestyle Communities which is a large Canadian
owned company that is commited to each and every community they own is
exactly where I want to be at this stage in my real estate career. Let me extend
an invitation to all to drop by our sales office and see what a little imagination
and a whole lot of expertise can do to a community in lust one year. I guarantee
you'll be amazed!
Dr. Kate
Partridge
Dr. Kate Partridge is a registered psychologist who has more
than 25 years of experience in helping people cope with problems
related to stress, anxiety, panic, depression and chronic pain. A
long-time city girl, Dr. Kate moved with her husband to the
Exeter area two years ago and she loves being in the country.
Over the years, Dr. Kate has found that when you can get
some control over the way that stress is affecting your emotional
and physical functioning, many other problems start to become
manageable. This is because your effectiveness in dealing with
the challenges of life depends on the ability of your nervous sys-
tem to keep you energized, calm and able to think clearly.
In confidential individual counseling sessions, or in group
workshops, Dr. Kate trains you to use a range of highly effective
techniques and strategies for regulating stress. When you prac-
tice these skills on a regular basis, you can make an extraordi-
nary difference in how you think, feel and act.
Dr. Kate has offices in Exeter and in London. You can reach
her at 519-234-6838, or by email, kpartridge@stressrelease.ca.
(The services of a registered psychologist are covered by many
people's Extended Health Benefits plan).
