READ BELLEVILLE SENS HOST BRIGHTON DAY GAME SATURDAY MORE @ JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Brighton - Brighton's youngest hockey players will get to play on the same ice as the Belleville Senators before the American Hockey League team takes on the Cleveland Monsters this Saturday at the CAA Arena.

"For us it starts at 5 o'clock

(with) a pre-game party," said Mark Bateman, president of Brighton Minor Hockey.

Later, "we're doing the official puck drop," and then have two teams from the IP (Initiation Program) for five- and six-yearolds play an abbreviated game between the second and third periods. Preschoolers will be taking part as well.

There will also be prize giveaways for Brighton residents attending the AHL tilt, and Art on Main will have a table promoting its event which takes place July 6.

"The whole focus is going to be about Brighton," Bateman said. "It's going to be a fun day to promote Brighton."

More than 170 children and adults, including business own-

ers, are going to the match, which starts at 7 p.m.

Bateman said he had "to put a cap" on the number taking part in Brighton Day at the Belleville arena, because the idea he had for the day proved to be so popular.

LAKEPORT RESIDENTS VOICE OPPOSITION TO CANNABIS FACILITY JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com Cramahe Township - Residents in Lakeport have banded together to try to prevent a $10 million cannabis production facility (CPF) from operating in their community.

Two representatives of the group called 'Defend Lakeport', spelled out the numerous concerns residents have about the proposal by Sharpshooter Industries Inc. in a presentation to council Feb. 5.

The company has said it wants to become the leading craft producer of high-end cannabis extracts by converting a 31,000square-foot factory that once made brake pads for trucks into a facility capable of producing up-

northumberlandnews.com

THE ISSUE: THE POSSIBLE OPERATION OF A CANNABIS PRODUCTION FACILITY IN LAKEPORT. LOCAL IMPACT: HAMLET RESIDENTS LIST SEVERAL CONCERNS INCLUDING THE OPERATION BEING TOO CLOSE TO RESIDENCES, NO MUNICIPAL WATER, INCREASED TRAFFIC, POTENTIAL FOR INCREASED CRIME wards of $500 million worth of extracts and flower per year.

Its plans include building a 1,000-square-foot addition that houses a lab.

Gritt Koehl said the site is too close to residences, and there is no municipal water available for it to use, which is critical, because cannabis production facilities require large amounts of water.

Sharpshooter has said it will use a well and collect rainwater, and will truck in water when necessary.

Koehl said residents already have issues with wells going dry in the summer and the proposal

by Sharpshooter "compounds the problem."

Bill Gale, whose residence is adjacent Sharpshooter's fouracre property, said Lakeport "has lost ... that quality of a small,

peaceful hamlet," with the erection of an eight-foot high fencing around the site that makes it appear like a prison.

He said the facility will increase traffic, cause light pollution with its security lighting, and "create a distinctively skunky, unpleasant smell" no matter what system is used to prevent it from going off-site.

Gale said he's "genuinely concerned about a potential for an increase in criminal activity."

Sharpshooter will be producing a controlled substance that "has great value" and being located "in a quiet, out-of-the-way residential community would be a tempting target for criminals," he said.

Adam Dasovich, CEO of Sharpshooter, reacted angrily to Defend Lakeport's presentation when called the next day for comment. He said he was "really upset" that he had not been given an opportunity to have "a voice" at the meeting.

"I got sideswiped on that one," he said. "I'm very disappointed by how this whole thing went about."

"It just would have been nice so I could have prepared and we could have had a nice dialogue."

Defend Lakeport submitted a petition bearing the names of 64 people living in the hamlet who are opposed to a CPF being built there.

"Pretty sure residents never envisioned a prison-like facility to be thrust into their hamlet particularly without public knowledge and the opportunity to speak to (council) about this," Koehl said.

"Cramahe's industrial park would be a more suitable location, with little impact to residents, particularly since it has water."

Koehl ended the presentation by asking Cramahe not to allow Sharpshooter to proceed with establishing a CPF in Lakeport.

Mayor Mandy Martin poured cold water on the request, saying council has no say in Health Canada's approval process.

"What we do have control over in this situation is development of a site plan agreement, and we have said ... that this will not proceed without [one]," she said. "We have not yet received anything from Sharpshooter."

"We don't know what their plans are."

The mayor said she empathized with the concerns of residents "but there are still ... a lot of

hurdles to go through. I think you should conserve your energy at this point and know that it is not a fait accompli.

“Thus far it's balloons blowing in the air, and everybody's ... excited, and I get it."

"Sharpshooter has gone ahead and started as if they had approval to do this," Koehl countered.

Gale said Health Canada will not grant a licence until the facility is ready to operate and has been inspected to ensure it meets all the requirements.

It appears to him Sharpshooter "intends to push through and

build the building."

"Our concern is that they're going to plow ahead with this and sink a whole bunch of money into it," Gale said.

Dasovich said Sharpshooter's application for licences from Health Canada is "in the works" but he declined to say anything further, saying it's a matter to be discussed with shareholders, not reporters.

Questions about the proposal based on Defend Lakeport's presentation were emailed to him at his request.

Dasovich subsequently re-

sponded the issues raised " have been addressed numerous times" but he provided no information.

He said he would reply, or discuss in person when he has the time.

STORY BEHIND THE STORY Residents of Lakeport have voiced their opposition to this development and this time they brought their concerns to Cramahe Township council. John Campbell has been covering this issue for months and reports in detail their position, council's reaction and the company's response.

FIRE DESTROYS BARN

ENSS ATHLETES WILL GET THEIR DUE THANKS TO COMMUNITY FUND JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com BRIGHTON - Anne Falla plans to frame her students and the Brian Todd Memorial Community Fund is giving her the money to do it.

The East Northumberland Secondary School teacher will use the $1,000 grant to have frames made for the photos of students who have been COSSA (Central Ontario Secondary Schools Association) champions, individually or as team members, or finished in the top eight at OFSAA (all-Ontario).

"We're six years behind" having the photos put on the walls in the foyer outside the school's main gym, Falla said.

"We're behind for badminton, track and field, and boys soccer."

Curtis Armstrong, an educational assistant at the high school, is building the frames.

It's a tradition that blossomed in the 1970s. Several hundred students have been honoured over the years.

Falla said she's never seen

Randy Dunkley photo Fire destroyed a barn and more than 300 bales of hay and straw at a dairy farm east of Campbellford last Friday afternoon. Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake said the fire on 7th Line East, which broke out around 5 p.m., was caused by ashes from an outdoor wood stove. There were no injuries but the estimated loss of barn and bales totals $90,000.

ably next season," he said. "It's just a good way to promote the youth (and) promote the town."

"It's going to be exciting for the kids and for Brighton."

Bateman said Art on Main will be publicized on the huge

scoreboard over centre ice, as well as "two other aspects" of Brighton he had yet to decide on as of Monday night.

"The Senators are just loving it because it's going to promote them, it's introducing people to their game (who) might come back (to see more contests)."

anything like it done at other schools.

"I really like it," she said. "I often come into the foyer and see people visiting our school ... looking at the pictures."

Today's students also get a kick out of the photos from years past, Falla said. "(They) laugh at the old athletic fashions, how short the shorts are or how horrible the hair styles are."

ENSS athletes at one point wore "probably some of the ugliest uniforms of all time," she joked.

Falla also maintains a display of ENSS students who have set records.

"They love it, they take a lot of pride in it," she said.

ENSS received an additional $1,000 grant which the student government spent on buying a ping-pong table that's set up in the cafeteria. Students make use of it during lunch and after school.

"It's meant for stress relief," Falla said. "There's a lineup to play ... It's a good place for them to go.

"The fund is everything to ENSS," she said.

The municipality's three public schools - Brighton, Smithfield and Spring Valley - were granted $1,000 apiece, to purchase such things as sun shades and drums.

Gail Todd said "it means the world" having the fund named after her late husband.

"It's pretty special," she said.

"Brian would be thrilled, he really would, but he'd wonder what all the fuss is, too."

Brian Todd, a former principal of ENSS, was instrumental in establishing the original Community Health Grant Program in 2009, as the fund was known then.

The former school superintendent died of cancer in 2011.

The fund will give out its community grants later this year.

WALAS THROWS HAT IN RING FOR CONSERVATIVE NOMINATION ALICIA VANDINE aliciavandine@gmail.com The tradition of Brighton municipal leaders seeking roles in upper levels of government continues.

Former mayor Mark Walas officially announced Monday, Feb. 4, that he is running for the Conservative nomination in Northumberland-Peterborough South, seeking to become the party's candidate in the October federal election.

Jodie Jenkins, general manager of MyFm's Oldies 100.9 radio station in Brighton and former 2015 candidate for the federal Conservatives in Bay of Quinte, introduced Walas before he announced his canMark Walas didacy to the crowd gathered at the Whistling Duck restaurant on Harbour Street.

Walas's announcement brings to five the number of nominees now in the race, which includes Philip Lawrence, Sarah Honey, Grant Dingwall and John Sorrell.

"It is a great thing for this riding to have five strong candidates to choose from as we all have different skill sets," Walas said. "I wish everyone well, we all want to bring the Conservative Party back to this riding."

Walas served as mayor of the Municipality of Brighton from 2010 to 2018 and also served as both a Northumberland County councillor and county warden.

"Many of you may have noticed that I am wearing my Rotary tie tonight," he told the crowd.

"I have always used their philosophy while serving in both levels of government and this opportunity is another chance to live our motto of Service Above Self."

"I have always been a Liberal," Mary Tadman said. "Mark is honest and hard-working and I have always known him to be kind and to care about the community. I am taking out a membership this year so that I can support him in his bid to represent this riding."

The nomination meeting and vote will take place on Saturday, March 2, at St. Mary's Secondary School in Cobourg.

WHY DO WE TALK SO MUCH ABOUT THE WEATHER?

ABOUT US

This newspaper, published every Thursday, is a division of the Metroland Media Group Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Torstar Corporation. The Metroland family of newspapers is comprised of more than 80 community publications across Ontario.

IT'S A POPULAR TOPIC EVERYONE CAN RELATE TO, ALICIA VANDINE WRITES ALICIA VANDINE Column

Now that we are into the longest part of the winter, the chatter in offices, arenas and coffee shops invariably turns to a familiar topic - the weather.

Currently that would mean the snow, the ice and the cold.

I think it is true that many of us enjoy a good rant about the weather, especially during the winter, but it got me thinking about why we talk so much about it?

I think that some of our obsession arises from the fact that we live in such a large, geographically diverse country. Our weather patterns vary widely province to province, season to season and sometimes even day to day, with temperatures that can vary from 40 C in July to -50 C in February. It is these extremes that seem to fuel all our weather talk.

Adding to these facts, overall Canadian winter temperatures have risen on average during the years, at least since the national records have been kept, which seems hard to believe considering the January and February we have had this year.

But I can see the attraction to the topic, because weather is constantly changing and I think we are just simply curious northumberlandnews.com

ENSS TEAM ADVANCES TO PROVINCIALS

about weather phenomena and the power of nature. I would even wager a guess that some of the most read news stories often detail the impact of extreme weather storms, whether it is local coverage of freezing rain, snowfall and heatwaves or global stories like hurricanes, tornadoes or tsunamis.

There is a practical reason for our curiosity and talk, too. We chat about it because we need to know what to expect and what to plan for. We use the wisdom and experience of others to help us better manage the impact of the conditions. But I think most of all we talk about the weather because it's an easy topic of conversation.

Weather is safe. It's not necessarily that people don't have anything else to say, so they bring up the weather. It's that the weather can often be a polite lead-in to other topics, and it is something that everyone can have an opinion on and relate to, acting as a sort of icebreaker.

At the end of the day, I think that all our conversations about our weather are just a way to pass the time with another person.

It gives us a way to connect with others by sharing a common experience and it is a way to make a hot or frigid day just a little more tolerable.

WHO WE ARE

LETTERS & COMMENTARY SHORT-SIGHTED AT NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY, READER WRITES DEAR EDITOR:

I noted with dismay that Northumberland County has arbitrarily eliminated the annual bulky waste vouchers sent to residents at a cost of $11 per household.

Vouchers were given free to households to allow residents to take large objects to a landfill for disposal rather than dump them illegally. This helped reduce illegal dumping and promoted proper disposal.

Items would include mattresses, stuffed furniture and children's play equipment.

I think the decision was taken with little regard to the consequences to the environment and esthetics of the countryside.

Growing up on a farm in Murray Township gave me a firsthand view of what happens when disposal of waste is given a low priority. The south end of Dad's farm bordered the service road on

rcoyne@metroland.com BrightonIndependent @north_news

the north side of the Murray Canal. Residents from far and near would dump anything and everything in the road allowance which bordered the east property line. It was fairly isolated, so it is not surprising that the canal road was a favourite dumping ground.

I believe that illegal dumping will increase with the elimination of the bulky waste voucher. This is not only a rural problem but urban as well. Shortsighted indeed.

ROGER MCMURRAY BRIGHTON

IN DEFENCE OF ATVS IN BRIGHTON

Note: This letter was submitted before council's decision to approve ATVs in Brighton.

DEAR EDITOR:

In response to Roger McMurray's comments in support of an ATV ban in Brighton, let me point out that in the last 10 years a very large number of municipalities in Ontario have legalized their use and all of them have reported next to no negative

impacts.

Most have also stated that ATV-related incidents have actually gone down.

If the leadership in Brighton would simply give their compatriots in other towns a quick call they would see how foolish this rehash of a non-problem is.

I have seen them driving downtown Campellford and Bancroft and they seamlessly fit right in.

As far as noise goes, they are about as offensive as a Volkswagen Beetle. I have a neighbour with a Harley Davidson and nobody is trying to ride him out of town on a rail.

Finally, one of Mr. McMurray's points is that they do not have airbags!

With all due respect to Mr. McMurray, how do you propose installing airbags on ATVs? You might want to run your idea past a few motorcycle manufacturers, maybe you'll get rich ... but I have my doubts.

JOHN CAMPBELL jcampbell@metroland.com BRIGHTON - Postcards of the area from more than a century ago will be among the featured attractions at the seventh annual Brighton History Open House that will take place Feb. 23 at King Edward Park Community Centre.

The postcards are from the collection of Jill and Bud Guertin. Most are "photo cards" of Brighton and Presqu'ile taken before the First World War but there are ones of Orland, Smithfield, Morganston and Codrington as well.

The couple, both retired teachers who also farmed, began their collection in the 1960s. It formed part of the antique business they once operated and contained as many as 20,000 postcards.

"Some of them are beautifully written," Bud said.

The writers "must have been calligraphers."

"This is a great addition (to the show) because a lot of people will identify with what they see," said D.W. (Fletch) Fletcher, a member of Brighton Digital Archives, the volunteer group that is organizing the open house this year for the first time.

"You've got two interested audiences," he said: Those who have lived in the area a long time whose "family memories" will be stirred seeing the postcards, and "people new to the community who want to learn a little bit about it. It hits both our target audiences, and it creates a more personal contact with the show."

Another exhibitor making an appearance for the first time will be the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment Museum, commemorating the 75th anniversary of D-Day as well as the invasion of Italy.

And new to the open house this year is the Brighton Digital Archives' Video Repertory Theatre, which includes "Brighton I Remember," a series of remembrances by local seniors with long histories in

John Campbell/Metroland D.W. Fletcher says the photos Bud and Jill Guertin will have on display are "a great addition" to this year's Brighton History Open House.

LABOUR OF LOVE FOR VOLUNTEER GROUP

Shooting and editing the videos for "Brighton I Remember" is a lengthy process for the six people involved in their making, taking roughly 80 hours to complete each one, D.W. Fletcher said.

The people interviewed are given photographs that trigger memories and they go on to describe what the pictures show.

"The feedback that we're getting from that series is such that it's really spurring us on to do more and more of them," Dorothy Fletcher said.

The videos are between five and nine minutes long.

Florence Chatten talks about her life as a farm wife and how the dairy industry grew; the late Marjorie Morgan reminisces about getting involved in politics and meeting the Queen in 1959; and John Stevens, whose video is the latest and just recently completed, offers up his memories of Presqu'ile Provincial Park in the '20s, '30s and '40s.

He talks about "things in the park I bet most people in Brighton never knew existed," Fletcher said. The many activities that went on there "are just amazing." the community.

So far three have been completed with Florence Chatten, Marjorie Morgan and John Stephens.

Also being shown as part of the repertory theatre are Dan Buchanan's "Rural Roots" and vintage footage of Presqu'ile Provincial Park.

Brighton Public Library, Proctor House Museum, Friends of Presqu'ile, the Masonic Lodge and Women's Institute are among the other exhibitors.

Buchanan, the History Guy, will have "Archives of Brighton" as the theme of

his display.

"It's a nice show and people love to come back to it," Fletcher's wife, Dorothy, said.

A Northumberland County Archives video will be shown that gives viewers tips for caring for and preserving family photographs at home.

Visitors will also be able to enjoy locally produced heritage crab apple juice and the Women's Institute will again host a tea luncheon. The cost is $5.

Admission to the show, which runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., is free.

OPINION

BRIGHTON'S OWN: ISN'T THAT BEAUTIFUL? DAVE AND MARILYN PHASEY ARE PERFECT SOULMATES, VIC SCHUKOV WRITES VIC SCHUKOV Column

What Dave and Marilyn Phasey bring to the table is plain and simple, and something surprisingly rarer than one would think: They are perfect soulmates.

Dave was born in Orono. At 14, he worked in a dairy doing everything from milking to delivery. At 16, he started at the Oshawa GM plant: "I joined the GM youth group at a buck and a half less than everyone else, at $1.43 an hour. Then, it was a genuine assembly plant from fabrication (of parts) up."

He retired after 30 years as a per diem supervisor at 47.

Wife Marilyn was born on a farm in nearby Shiloh: "My dad went into Air Force when I was five. Mom got a teaching job in Tyrone, so we moved there."

The couple met at a dance in Tyrone Hall where Dave's sister introduced him to her lodge sister, Marilyn. A typical male, Dave doesn't remember what first attracted him to Marilyn. She remembers, however: "I think he was the opposite of me. I was quiet. He's the mouth.

(Laughing.)"

They got married at 18, and lived in Tyrone from 1958 to 1966, then Shiloh until 1973. (Both houses built by them.) Then, they lived near Castleton for 17 years, running an Arctic Cat dealership, while Marilyn, a master gardener, grew cucumbers for Bicks: "It was Christmas money. And the snowmobile dealership was successful 'til Cat went broke."

Dave adds, "We then started a Bombardier Ski-Doo dealership. We were SkiDoo dealers of the year for Ontario in 1988. (Dave broke his neck a year later and that was that.) The first house in Tyrone, Marilyn mixed all the mortar."

Seven years ago, they moved to Brighton. Why? "Who wouldn't want to live here?" asks Dave. "We been married now for 63 years. "

Vic Schukov photo Dave and Marilyn Phasey shown here at home with cat Tom. When I asked Dave what the secret to a long marriage was, Marilyn interjected with, "Yes, dear. (Laughing.)"

Dave: "It was the smartest thing I ever did, to marry that girl. First, you have to find the right woman. I don't know how that happened, but we get along. We like to do the same things, mostly travel. We have been everywhere but California and Newfoundland. Even been to Alaska. We have been known to go for a drive. We've had three motor homes. If you don't travel, what are you going to see?"

They both admit they are best friends, soulmates "definitely," with never a lull in their conversations. Marilyn adds.

"The younger generation don't give it half a chance." Her philosophy is to "just enjoy it, every minute."

Dave: "I don't have a philosophy except I changed when I met her. My shoes were not paid for, my suit was not paid for, the rings were not paid for. When we got married, she cleaned up my act. Put that in as many times as you like. If I had to live my life all over again, I would have married her at 16, provided I could find her. (Pointing at Marilyn.) There's my saviour right there."

Isn't that beautiful?

FRIESEN'S SMOKEHAUS OPENS TAKEOUT LOCATION IN WARKWORTH Friesen's Smokehaus is a family-owned catering business that offers southern barbecue with a German twist.

Jake Friesen, owner and pit-master, operates a mobile food truck, selling his popular smoked cuisine at community events or private functions. He has opened a new takeout space behind the Village Pantry store in the Warkworth Mews with the help of his two sons, 15-year-old Ross and 10-year-old Zak, and girlfriend, Christina Kelly.

Jake has been smoking meats, competing and providing catering services for more than 15 years. At Warkworth's Oktoberfest, held last fall, he decided that opening this takeout space would be a great way to showcase his catering business.

Jake's business plan is a little different than the average takeout spot. "We are not going to have regular hours but will release when we are open and what is on the day's menu on our Facebook page, website or through email notices."

This will give them the flexibility to continue to operate their catering business and give them a takeout venue to sell directly to the public; when the spring arrives, he plans to set up picnic tables outside for customers too.

TRY SOMETHING NEW IN 2019: BALLROOM DANCING

www.newscanada.com (NC)

ALICIA VANDINE aliciavandine@gmail.com

Karolina Roussakis photo

If you are looking for a new activity in 2019, consider ballroom dance.

Evy Roussakis is hosting a Ballroom Dancing Open House event on Feb. 15 at 8:10 p.m. in the studio space at the Whole Health building, at 86 Main St. in downtown Brighton. These classes are for adults, and there are spaces for both couples and singles.

Roussakis studied dance at York University in Toronto and was a ballerina for 12 years. She started teaching ballroom dance when she worked for a studio in Ajax, getting certified in 12 different styles.

Dance instructor Evy Roussakis.

"After moving to Brighton, I wanted to bring the opportunity to learn ballroom dance to this area, too," she said.

"Of course, I still love ballet, but ballroom dance is such a wonderful opportunity to dance with a partner.

There are so many diverse styles, with dances from Argentina to Austria.

"I have room for 15 people at the open house," Roussakis said. "Ideally, five couples and five single men and women can be accommodated in the downstairs studio space in the Whole Health build-

ing."

A pack of 10 ballroom dancing lessons costs $140 per adult, but Roussakis is offering a chance to try it out for $5 per person on Friday, Feb. 15, at this one-hour open house.

All you need is some comfy clothing and footwear to participate.

This would be a great way to spend an hour on a Friday evening. Meet other couples, make new friends, and share a laugh or two, all while getting physical exercise to burn some calories. Reserve your space; call Evy Roussakis at 647-297-1003.

Heading into cold and flu season, it’s an important reminder that the best way to stay healthy is through prevention.

While nothing will guarantee you will be able to completely prevent illness related to cold and flu viruses, take a look below for some tips from Bowen Chen, Target pharmacist, to help fend off illness before it hits.

Stay rested Factors that may increase the risk of catching a cold or flu are fatigue and emotional stress. Be sure to take the time to rest if you feel something coming on, and don’t go into work if you wake up with a fever, aches and pains, or are coughing, sniffling, and sneezing.

Wash your hands Yes, we have all heard this over and over, but hand washing is one of the most effective ways to prevent the spread of illness. The cold and flu viruses can spread through indirect contact such as touching objects like door handles, and can live for 2 to 8 hours on surfaces. Everyone should wash their hands frequently with soap and water, or if unavailable, use an

alcohol-based hand sanitizer.

Avoid sharing food and beverages Cold and flu viruses can spread through direct contact, such as sharing drinks or food.

Avoid sharing straws, bottles, snacks and utensils with others, especially if you are sick.

Cover your sneezes and coughs When you sneeze or cough, cover your nose and mouth with a tissue if possible. Cough or sneeze into your sleeve if you do not have a tissue handy. Lead by example and teach your family to follow suit.

Get a flu shot The most effective way to decrease complications and reduce the impact of the flu is to get a preventative vaccine shot. The North American vaccine is developed each year to work against three strains of influenza virus, based on trends seen in the Southern Hemisphere. The best time for vaccination is early October to mid-November.

CAMPBELLFORD PADDLE EXPANDS BY OPENING BAREFOOT PADDLE ALICIA VANDINE aliciavandine@gmail.com If you have been in Campbellford during the summer you have probably seen people standup paddling (SUP) or kayaking and canoeing on the Trent River.

Much of that activity is thanks to Campbellford Paddle which opened its location at 197 Queen St. It provides the opportunity for people to take lessons and rent paddleboards, kayaks or canoes by the hour.

Campbellford Paddle is owned by Heather Zak and Mark Malcolm, World Paddle Association Certified SUP instructors. They have expanded Campbellford Paddle and have opened a retail storefront called Barefoot Paddle in downtown Campbellford.

"Stand up paddling has

really taken off in Ontario and has become more mainstream. It is now as popular as canoeing and kayaking," said Zak. "We wanted to open a place to showcase these sports and the equipment options that are available for beginners and experienced paddlers."

Barefoot Paddle features several product lines including Kahuna Paddleboards and Clear View Designs, which is made in Canada.

"Our family has also developed our own brand of paddleboards called Vendetta and we tailor our designs to the Canadian esthetic with distinct designs and lots of wood grained finishes."

The store carries new products, but they do have some gently used options for beginners.

"Paddling can be a life-

"It is important to Heather and I, that we tailor equipment to the needs of our customers. We want people to enjoy these sports as much as we do and getting the right equipment for them helps them to do just that."

With many options to choose from, Zak and Malcolm can fit you based on weight, experience and budget.

"I would like to thank the Brighton Curling Club for providing a great venue and the local volunteers that prepared and served lunch on both days of the qualifier event," added Bresee. "Our local ice makers Al Lowe and Neil Taylor also provided an excellent curling surface for the entire weekend and Gail Todd's professional assertiveness while officiating allowed all teams to curl at their best with no distractions.

"To the members of the public and the club who came out to cheer for the home teams, it was such a welcome surprise," he noted. "This encouragement to our young curlers was outstanding and both teams were great ambassadors for Brighton."

The East Northumberland Secondary School girls curling team is moving on to the Ontario School Curling Championships being held in Pembroke, Ont., Feb. 14-16, after winning a spot at the qualifying event hosted recently in Brighton.

This championship event started in 1948 and is the oldest trophy in high school sports in Ontario.

The Gore Mutual Insurance Company has been a sponsor since its inception.

Eight boys and eight girls high school teams from across Ontario will compete at these provincials for the coveted Gore Trophy and Gore Bowl.

The ENSS girls recently

competed in the Zone Qualifiers, a double knockout event earlier this month at the Brighton Curling Club.

The girls lost the A final to very strong North Dundas High School from Chesterville, 8-3 but rallied and won the B final, beating Carleton Place High School's entry, 7-3 securing themselves a spot to play at the Ontario Curling Championship.

"The girls were super excited to move on and we as coaches were thrilled that they bounced back from a tough morning game to play with the same intensity that they demonstrated throughout the entire tournament," said coach Brad Bresee. "Our boys team rallied too after a loss on Saturday but lost their game on Sunday morning and

County Council approves 2019 County Budget On January 30, County Council voted to approve the 2019 Northumberland County Budget. Following debate about the proposed 2.5 per cent base levy increase presented in December, Council reviewed options to reduce the levy by a half percentage point, and agreed to eliminate the Bulky Waste Voucher program to achieve this modified target. "We believe we now have a budget in place that supports planned projects and initiatives while being ever-respectful of the pressures on our ratepayers," indicates Warden John Logel.

"While Council faced difficult deliberation in arriving at this outcome, this decision allows us to preserve important longterm infrastructure and programming priorities that will deliver significant value to our community."
