November 2008 …………………..Jackson’s
Point, Ontario. The Briars Resort & Spa invites guests to
celebrate a traditional Christmas while embracing today’s “green”
lifestyle choices. You can enjoy a memorable holiday retreat at one of
Ontario’s premiere resorts with the assurance while knowing all
the facilities and services are industry-leading examples of the latest
earth friendly innovations. The all-natural experience could include guided
country walks and horse drawn sleigh rides plus a bevy of festive indoor
events and comforts--all part of The Briars old-fashioned “green”
Christmas packages.
The Briars is recognized as the first major resort in Ontario to ban
smoking indoors. Their “Green Team”, led by Sheila Maxwell,
Director of Food and Beverage and Fitness, continues to come up with new
ways to make the resort even more energy efficient and earth friendly.
They have replaced 90 percent of the lighting with energy efficient bulbs.
Showerheads are super efficient water savers and all the guest and conference
rooms are equipped with new recycle bins, which help to maintain four
streams of waste and recycling. Bags are used in place of boxes for take-away
lunches, and bottled water (previously used during coffee breaks) has
been replaced by water jugs. Each of these former items is still available
upon request. In addition, the spa only uses all natural, health conscious
products.
In 2009, The Briars plans to take further steps in the kitchen by composting
all organic waste and introducing solar heated water.
The Briars holiday season is a magical festive time where guests can savour
all the delicious meals associated with this celebration of life and family.
On New Year’s Eve. The Briars throws a lively bash filled with merriment
and good cheer for all. Visit The
Briars Resort and Spa website to learn more about the two-three night
“Christmas in the Country” packages, the Gala New Year’s
Celebration and many other holiday season packages.
This winter wonderland paradise is located conveniently an hour’s
drive north of Toronto.
John & Barbara Sibbald, Innkeepers wish everyone “a very merry,
very green Christmas and a joyous New Year.”
