WELCOME TO OUR DISTRICT’S WEB PAGE
WE’RE PROUD OF OUR COUNTY
Renfrew County brings together what good living is all about - urbanized areas complete with contemporary conveniences, and small rural communities surrounded by vast open spaces. Throughout Renfrew County these contrasts in lifestyles are only minutes apart. Hours normally spent in rush hour traffic of large cities can be reserved for recreational pursuits in the Valley. A quiet lake with a fishing hole is never far away and golf lovers can choose a different course each day of the week. Renfrew County has approximately 158,000 acres of clean, clear water. As a result, recreational boating, beaches and marinas are abundant. Numerous ski hills, and hundreds of kilometres of groomed cross-county ski trails and snowmobile trails make Renfrew County a four-season paradise. Cultural events and social activities are rich in variety and talent. Valley neighbourhoods are clean and secure - great places to raise families and enjoy the good life. All have easy access to excellent educational and health care facilities. Parks and recreational areas are plentiful and well maintained, while historical museums and public libraries are designed as people places.
DISTRICT 21
Because Renfrew County is so large (the largest in southern Ontario) District 21 is divided into two RTO-ERO Units. Everything from Cobden and west is our North Unit while every place east of this village is the South Unit. Each unit has its own executive which meets on a regular basis throughout the year. Unit 211 (North) has 546 full and 31 associate members. Unit 212 (South) has 314 full and 24 associates for a total of membership of the District of 915.
District 21 of the Retired Teacher of Ontario, Les Enseignantes et Enseignants Retraites de L'Ontario represents retired educators and associates in Renfrew County and parts of Pontiac County on the Quebec side of the Ottawa River. If retirement is in sight for you, we invite you to check out the many benefits of belonging to RTO/ERO.
