Hundreds gather for 60th anniversary at ENSS By John Campbell

News - Brighton - They came, they saw, they reminisced. But most of all, the former students of East Northumberland Secondary School had fun at the 60th anniversary celebration that took place last weekend, which began Friday night with a terriďŹ c Musical Gala Evening. “Last night’s performance was out of this world,â€? enthused ENSS alumnus Sandra Stronach. It was “a night to remember,â€? echoed drama teacher Paul Hussey, who helped organize the three-hour show which included solos, duets, and “the odd song that had a chorus in the back.â€? Twenty-eight actors sang 28 songs from at least 15 of the many musicals ENSS has staged over the years. The songs ranged from the school’s 1982 production of Anything Goes to last year’s performance of The Sound of Music. Hussey said “it was great to reconnectâ€? with students he had directed. “It was so magical backstage and the energy of the crowd–the alumni, the community–was phenomenal,â€? he said. There were no rehearsals, as the performers lived in different communities, but “it went off better than we probably could have even imagined,â€? Hussey said. The gala drew more than 525 people.

Lynda Reid, Catherine Ferland and Sandra Stronach, members in good standing of the Friendly Brats Institute (FBI), a club they formed in Grade 8, returned to the school that opened when they began

News - Brighton - It was a beautiful sunny day on Sunday as Community Care Northumberland took to the hills of Proctor Park in its Hike for Hospice. It was a record-breaking day, with more than 100 participants in the one-kilometre and five-kilometre walks, breaking the $10,000 goal, and raising $13,000. Cheryl McFarlane, regional hospice co-ordinator with Community Care Northumberland, says the funds raised during this education and fundraising event stay within Northumberland County. The Hike for Hospice takes place country-wide, with each region raising funds for its own communities. “We have volunteers who go through an accredited training program, then they begin to do hospice palliative care,� she said, and they go to the person’s home, hospital, or anywhere “home� is to them. Hospice offers one-to-one palliative support, caregiver support as well as support for friends and family, including grief support and respite, she said. Volunteers also provide anticipatory

News - Cramahe Township After trimming $12,280 in expenditures at another special budget meeting held last week, Cramahe Township council left it in staff’s hands to find another $30,000 to chop to lower this year’s increase in the municipal levy to below three per cent. Staff managed to do it, with

a number of cuts they submitted in a joint report to council for its May 5 meeting. If approved as expected, after press time, the local levy will go up by 2.9 per cent to $4,913,647. That represents a tax rate increase of less than one per cent–.62 per cent–which, on an average home in the township assessed at $207,251, translates into an increase of almost $10 for the

year. However, the overall tax bill, including Northumberland County and education levies, actually drops by $2.89 for the same property because of a drop in school taxes. The new total will be $2,938, with the breakdown as follows: municipal $1,556, county $978, and school board $404. The municipal levy will bring in

55 per cent of the money the township will need this year to pay for $8,959,722 in projected expenditures. Transportation services will take the largest bite of the 2015 budget at $1.66 million, followed by environmental services ($1.58 million), protection services ($1.36 million), general government ($1.32 million), recreation and culture ($1.08 million), construction ($731,300), fire services ($498,898), facilities, library, and planning and development. To achieve the final number, council members went through the budget in detail that had been prepared by staff, making a number of changes over the course of several meetings. The most recent changes were made April 28 when council reduced wage and training costs by $7,800 for part-time staff support in the building department, and operating costs at the Keeler Centre

canteen by $4,480. Councillor Don Clark suggested the amount initially set out for canteen wages, $12,800, be reduced. He said, “going forward,â€? it might be better to have it open only on weekends, for tournaments, and when the junior Colborne Chiefs play, because “some evenings there’s no revenue generatedâ€? during the winter. One possibility is to have a group take over its operation “on a volunteer basis,â€? but “we don’t know from a union standpoint whether you can do it,â€? he said. “We were very close to having a deal cut with minor hockey just before we went union here,â€? Mayor Marc Coombs said, but “at the last minute ‌ they didn’t want to do it.â€? The township is looking to hire a qualified person to serve in place of its chief building official whenever she is on holidays, sick or is in need of assistance, at a cost of

$20,000, but that role will be taken over after one of its staff has been trained to handle those duties when needed. Councillor Tim Gilligan grumbled at the amount of money the municipality spends on staff wages. “I keep saying it over and over, we’re out of control with salaries here,� he said. Among the nearly $39,000 in additional spending cuts staff submitted this week was a $9,000 reduction in contracted services for winter control, an $8,000 decrease in shelving for records management, and a $5,000 decrease in the amount of inventory that will be stocked in the canteen. There was also $3,000 less pencilled in for planning department legal expenses and economic development conventions and seminars, and $2,500 in lower administrative costs associated with the sale of properties for unpaid taxes.

OPINION

Franchise wars

Editorial - You can’t tell the players without a program, and it’s no wonder that people feel confused by the plethora of names the terrorist groups use. To make matters worse, they keep splitting, and sometimes they change their names just for Gwynne Dyer the hell of it. So here’s a guide you can stick on your wall. In the beginning there was Al Qaeda, starting in about 1989. There were lots of other terrorist start-ups in the Arab world around the same time, but eventually almost all of them either died out or joined one of the big franchises. Al Qaeda is the one to watch, since the success of its 2001 attacks on the United States on 9/11 put it head and shoulders above all its rivals. When the United States invaded Iraq in 2003 and foreign jihadis flocked into the Sunni Arab parts of the country to help the resistance, their leader, a Jordanian called Abu Musaib al Zarqawi, sought to affiliate his organisation with Al Qaeda to boost its appeal. In 2004 Osama bin Laden agreed to allow them to use the name Al Qaeda in Iraq, although there was little coordination between the two organisations. It was Al Qaeda in Iraq that got the SunniShia civil war going by persistently bombing Shia mosques and neighbourhoods, even though it knew that the more numerous Shia would win that war. It was profoundly cynical but strategically sound, since terrified Sunnis would then turn to Zarqawi’s organisation for protection. Al Qaeda in Iraq formally changed its name to Islamic State in Iraq (ISI) in 2006, but it didn’t really begin to flourish until a new leader, Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, took over in 2010. Soon afterward the Syrian civil war broke out, and Baghdadi sent a Syrian member of ISI, Abu Muhammad al Golani, into Syria to organise a branch there. It was called the Nusra Front. The Nusra Front grew very fast–so fast that by 2013 Baghdadi decided to reunite the two branches of the organisation under the new name Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). But this meant that Golani was being demoted to manager of the Syrian branch, so he declared his independence and asked to join al Qaeda, which

leaves its affiliates largely free to make their own decisions. Al Qaeda’s leader, Ayman al Zawahiri (by now bin Laden was dead), backed the Nusra Front because he felt that creating an Islamic state, as Baghdadi intended, was premature. Baghdadi thereupon broke relations with Al Qaeda, and in early 2014 the Nusra Front and ISIS went to war. Thousands of Islamist fighters were killed, and after four months it was clear that ISIS could hold eastern Syria but could not conquer the Nusra Front in the west of the country. The two rival organisations agreed to a ceasefire–and two months later, in June 2014, ISIS used its battlehardened forces to invade Iraq. The Iraqi army collapsed, and by July ISIS controlled the western third of Iraq. Counting its Syrian territories as well, ISIS now ruled over 10 to 12 million people, so Baghdadi dropped the “Iraq and Syria” part of the name and declared that henceforward it would just be known as Islamic State. The point of not naming it after a specific territory is that it can be expanded indefinitely with no further name changes. Soon afterwards Baghdadi declared himself caliph, and therefore commander of all the world’s Muslims. This was an extremely bold step, since those Muslims who hear the call of “Caliph Ibrahim” and do not submit to his authority– even fighters in other jihadi organisations like the Nusra Front and Al Qaeda–are technically “apostates” and liable to death in the eyes of those who do accept his claim. In other words, IS’s fighters now have the legal right, at least in their own eyes, to kill most Sunni Muslims in addition to the Shias, Christians, Jews, and assorted other unbelievers they already had the right to kill. There is a potential genocide in the making if Islamic State expands further in Syria, where easily 75 per cent of the population fits into one or another of those categories. Some jihadis in other countries, most notably Boko Haram in Nigeria, declared their allegiance to “Caliph Ibrahim” and Islamic State at once. Other stayed loyal to Al Qaeda–the Nusra Front, Al Shabaab in Somalia, and the al Qaeda branches in Yemen, Egypt, and the Maghreb–and rejected his claim. But Al Qaeda may declare a rival caliphate once Nusra has finished conquering Idlib province and established a firmer territorial base in Syria. So there you have it: two rival franchises competing for the loyalty of all the other jihadi organisations. There’s not really much difference between them ideologically or practically, but the franchise wars will continue. I hope that helps.

Secrecy of Premier’s visit leaves a bad taste in the mouth By Stephen Petrick

Editorial - In the days leading up to Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne’s visit to Belleville last week I asked perhaps the least probing question of my journalistic career. “What time is she coming?” Several weeks ago Wynne was announced as one of the speakers for the Ontario Small Urban Municipalities Conference taking place April 29 to May 1. Her profile was even put on the conference’s website where it listed speakers, but no exact time, date or location was publicized. Then a media advisory from the City of Belleville came out earlier in the week, listing the speakers and their time slots for Wednesday and Thursday. But there was still no mention of Wynne, prompting me to ask communication co-ordinator Marilyn Warren, “When is she coming?” “I have been directed to give further information on Thursday,” she answered, to my puzzlement. Sure enough, late on Thursday afternoon I got my answer. She’d be here at 8:45 a.m. the next morning. Phooey, I said to myself when I heard the news. (Actually, that’s not the word I said. The word I said was much worse.) Why would someone announce an early-morning meeting so late in the afternoon? Since becoming a parent, I’ve concluded that “8:45 a.m.” is code for “let’s make sure it’s really difficult for parents of daycare-age children to attend.” But the second I parked at the Quinte Sports & Wellness Centre on Friday I got my answer. A large group of OPSEU protesters, claiming Wynne wants to privatize public services, was already outside. I guess if you’re the Premier of Ontario you’ve got to keep your schedule secret for as long as you can to avoid the travelling throng. Upon entrance to the Wellness Centre I was asked to show my “media ID” at the door, and then at the entranceway to the gym I almost wasn’t let in because I didn’t have a conference “badge.” But a city employee who recognized

me let me in, just as the premier was about to take the podium. Inside, another person, one from Wynne’s public relations team, asked me to show ID again. The whole process left a bad taste in my mouth, not just as a reporter, but also as a democracy-believing taxpayer. I hate to think what would have happened had I run out of my little Metroland business cards the night before. The fact that I could show reasonable proof that I’m a full-time employee of a professional news organization got me in, but it shouldn’t have to be like that. What if I was just a freelancer (a lot of news is done on a freelance basis these days)? What if I was there for my own blog? What if I was there because I’m representing a labour union? What if I’m just an interested taxpayer? Or an average Joe Ontario voter? I understand there needs to be security and some measures to control the crowd. There are only so many people you can pack in a small gym. And God knows there are some crazies out there. But the sight of a political leader speaking in a room full of people only wearing dark suits doesn’t exactly leave one with a positive image of our democracy. It gives the perception that our leaders are accessible only to the powerful few. All that being said, I must say that when Wynne took the podium I was actually quite impressed. She spoke with clarity and seemed casual, friendly and confident. It’s no wonder the majority of Ontarians chose her in last summer’s election over that walking billboard of negativity named Tim Hudak. And she delivered some fairly pleasing news for the audience, which consisted of mayors, councillors and other officials from small municipalities. The province will dish out money for infrastructure, such as roads and bridges, fairly. The Toronto-Hamilton region will get what it needs for its population, and rural Ontario will get the same. Or that’s what she said. Time will tell.

school to do this.� “Where has the time gone?� asked school board trustee Cyndi Dickson, who praised the school’s “long and proud tradition of academic excellence� and civic-minded dedication. ENSS, with its many contributions, has had “a profound effect on our town, our province and our country,� she said. Mayor Mark Walas acknowledged the “fantastic job� done by the 60th anniversary organizing committee chaired by Bob Bird, who served as vice-principal at ENSS for 21 years. It was “a great weekend� not only for “a world-class high school,� but the municipality as well because of the “wonderful opportunity� it was given to showcase the community. MPP Lou Rinaldi also offered his congratulations, pointing out the “deep roots� that connects him to ENSS–four of his children graduated from there, and he raised $5,500 for the Terry Fox Foundation by shaving his head and moustache while mayor of Brighton. Many gathered in the main entrance to pore over yearbooks. Trent Hills Councillor Cathy Redden, the eldest of eight children who attended ENSS, said returning

to the school brought “lots of memoriesâ€? of “a wonderful schoolâ€? from which she graduated in 1969. “It was a great experience,â€? said Redden, who remembered having a singing part in a musical production called Where’s the Mayor? She went on to become the mayor of Campbellford. Stronach and Lynda Reid recalled carrying books and equipment from the old high school across the street in May 1955. They ENSS music teacher Lynda Tonkin sang the national anthem at the opening ceremonies, accompanied by Grade 12 student were both entering Grade 9. Rachel Campbell, who signed the words. Photo: John Campbell “We were just so excited,â€? Stronach said. “We actually did have the best year.â€? Their graduating class “normally is one of the bestâ€? for turning up at reunions, Stronach said. “What’s nice ‌ is they’ve kept the school in such great condition.â€? Anna Mastin sang a song from Grease in the musical gala, reprising her “bad girlâ€? role of Rizzo. She also performed in another school production, Evita while attending ENSS. Coming back for the 60th reunion was “fantasticâ€?–very emotional and very joyful, she said. Reuniting with many other former students she hadn’t seen in a long time “was a really special experience.

LIFESTYLES LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Brighton voted for a new vision The Brighton Wildlife development and public safety. Maybe David does not understand that tourists won’t be flocking to Brighton if they can’t flush the toilets or eat in a restaurant. Maybe David does not understand that when the water supply is broken, it becomes more difficult to provide firefighting services. And maybe David should take the time to read the 2014 Wastewater Pollution Control Plant Annual Report at <http://www.brighton.ca/photos/ custom/Wastewater%202014%20Annual%20Report.pdf> to understand that the sewage plant very much appears not to be working. So not only is council facing the challenges and costs of trying to make a failing plant work, it is also faced with the legal costs and potentially very large liabilities associated with the Ontario Water Resources Act charges laid against Brighton in April 2014, charges that were laid for failure to meet effluent quality standards in 2012 and 2013. Maybe, despite having been appointed to Brighton Council in June 2008, David does not understand that there is a limited amount of money to spend; that Brighton taxpayers cannot be treated as a bottomless pit of money. And if David has any question about the tightness of the money supply maybe he should look to what happened just this past week in Port Hope. Local media reported that Port Hope eliminated seven positions including the Director of Economic Development and Tourism, Tourism Co-ordinator, Tourism Assistant, Communications Co-ordinator, Administrative Assistant to the CAO/ Mayor, Director of Planning and Development Services and Fire Prevention Officer. And if David does not think these actions indicate a tight money supply, maybe he can recall the recent layoffs at Target, Future Shop, CBC, Sears Canada, Quinte Healthcare Corporation and,

just as I am writing this, the announcement of 1,000 layoffs at GM Oshawa. Do I believe that working to ensure safe roads, a safe water supply and an efficient sewage treatment plant is more important to economic development and public safety than wasting $63,965 on Downtown Revitalization or $66,100 on “Other Marketing Strategies� or paying the Brighton-Cramahe Chamber of Commerce approximately $45,000 to operate a tourism information kiosk? Absolutely. Especially when money is tight. It will not be possible to do everything that everyone thinks should be done. In the last paragraph of his ramble, David states “Your readers will discern a pattern here of automatically rejecting the initiatives of the previous council.� When I ran for election, I made it clear that I rejected all of the money-wasting initiatives–such as the Brighton Creative Trade Centre, the Brighton Branding Strategy and Downtown Revitalization– supported by the majority of the prior council; namely ex-Councillors Rowley, Kerr, Rittwage and Vandertoorn. So I hope David will take some time to examine the results of the October 2014 municipal election. From these results, the rejection of Vandertoorn as mayor and the fact that Rowley, Kerr and Rittwage, respectively, placed seventh, tenth and twelfth among the 13 persons in the race for council, I hope David will discern that the majority of Brighton voters very clearly rejected what David currently proposes as necessary for Brighton. It is clear to me that, in his archaic vision of economic development, David sees dark clouds over Brighton. From where I stand, there is a lot of work to be done. But, as I have tried to tell David before, the sky is not falling. John Martinello Brighton

Dear Editor, Re: Short term pain for long-term gain, Brighton Independent, April 30, 2015 At his most recent ramble David Cutler looks into the future and once again sees falling skies. David ominously predicts “there is a future price to pay� because this year’s 1.55 per cent tax increase “was achieved by cancelling virtually all economic development programs, and eliminating the position of Manager of Economic Development and Communications.� For the record, David’s statement that the position of Manager of Economic Development and Communications was eliminated is simply untrue. The position was, in fact, made vacant when the Manager of Economic Development and Communications resigned. As of the writing of this letter, the 2015 budget provides no current-year funding for this position. But it does not eliminate the position. During this year’s budget discussions, I supported cancelling some economic development programs and not funding the Manager of Economic Development and Communications position. I saw them as a waste of Brighton taxpayers’ money that delivered very little benefit to the majority of Brighton taxpayers. Also, as I have clearly stated before, I believe that infrastructure is the foundation of economic development. That without dependable and safe water supply, sewage treatment and road systems, it becomes very difficult for families and businesses to operate. I know that David does not rely on the municipal water supply for his water. So maybe he does not know about the water main break that happened on April 17. Or maybe he knows about it and just doesn’t care or understand that it provides a clear example of how important infrastructure is to economic

Area can’t be all things to all people

Dear Editor, A visit to the Brighton Wildlife Area vividly shows the kind of impact that public interaction with a natural environment can create. A dumping ground for construction waste, garden debris and household discards. A ‘roadway� that is virtually impassible because of deep ruts. Hills and pathways that are eroding because of heavy use by motorized vehicles like ATVs. In general a “wildlife� area that has become something other than a wildlife area. The difficulty for those trying to manage these properties stems from the over-riding idea that these lands can be all things to all people. Wildlife is definitely at the bottom of the list. This property is mislabeled as a wildlife area. Nearby, Presqu’ile Park has become a place where humans dominate and because of a costly and extensive management scheme, including monitoring, whether you agree with the concept or not, seems to be successfully creating multi-use activities while having a controlled negative impact on the land. And what seems to be developing is a respectful attitude towards this place. The problem with the Brighton Wildlife area is the lack of respect for this land. It is a relatively small area that will be impacted greatly by how the land is used. Motorized things create a great deal

of noise, which can impact wildlife and humans but this area is rather unique from this perspective because it borders on a very noisy major highway. Noisy motorized things are already there and there are few residences nearby. Wildlife and humans have become accustomed to the noise for he past 50 plus years. Maybe this would be a good place for motorized things to operate under the management of some appropriate organization. I’m not sure what that organization would be but it would have to deal with a host of issues, safety, monitoring, upkeep, dealing with improper use, etc. Perhaps separate designated walking trails could be established, maintained jointly by the walkers and the motorized users. Perhaps the hunting community could be involved. This might generate respect among all of these groups as well as for the land and the wildlife. Now is the time for some lateral thinking, an opportunity to truly try a new approach. Whatever happens with this area in the future, management dollars will have to come from somewhere. Simply setting rules of use, arbitrary or not, will not make things happen in this day and age. We humans seem to need monitoring when it comes to public land. Change is constant. Let’s approach it positively and thoughtfully. Keith Emery, Brighton

Harper government disconnect Dear Editor, In a prime example of disconnect between words and reality, the latest Conservative pre-election data collection sheet mailed at our expense by our Conservative Government, touts Canada as an exporting nation. The problem seems to have been misunderstood by the Export Development Agency, who has recently handed over $525 million to a German car company to expand in the USA and Mexico. Like the temporary Foreign Workers program, the objective seems to be jobs for non-Canadians. Also touted on the flyer are all the trade agreements, which allow the lower cost goods from South Korea for example, into Canada in exchange for what? Remember that much of the Canadian manufacturing sector is now in China and east Asia, increasing profits for the owners. Canadian companies currently sit on $600 billion of “dead money� (not doing anything). Canada has reverted to the hewers of wood and drawers of water, (think water pipelines to Califor-

nia), under this extraction-based government. One trade agreement item being watched by many countries currently is the suit by Philip Morris against Uruguay to overturn health restrictions on tobacco. The new regulations were brought in when an average seven Uruguayans died each day from tobacco. This ruling is headed for a secret hearing by a bank of corporate lawyers, not beholden to any country’s court system, not responsible for the health care costs of tobacco-related diseases, or the families’ anguish felt by those left behind. If Uruguay loses, it will be fined tens of millions or be required to remove the restrictions on the weed so that the death toll can climb again. Philip Morris will move on dozens of other countries that also sought to reduce the carnage. What do you think, should Canada sign more of these investor rights treaties? Paul Whittaker, Gilmour

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The latest Conservative propaganda Roads, bridges, water and sewer infrastructure cannot be handled without revenue. The economy cannot sustain the continuous tax cuts without the loss of services, as people are finding out, because the need for a doctor or a nurse is no longer affordable or available, that is if you can even find one. Then we have Norlock asking what we think of free trade. I will tell you what I think, free trade is a roundabout way of taking all the jobs out of Canada so that the companies can have a bigger profit. Aylmer’s canning was bought out and closed.

All the car jobs are going out. General Electric was moved to Mexico and now they sold their share of General Motors, so the company is moving out with 1,000 more jobs leaving. Then if a company is not happy, they sue the government and not only do we lose jobs but we also lose our case in the courts and have to pay millions to some no account. The only people making money are the lawyers and companies who have the right to sue as part of free trade contracts. Pete Brodeur, Frankford

Stop wasting money and simplify our taxes Dear Editor, Re: It’s tax time. Stop complaining and just pay them. By his own admission, Stephen Petrick is no expert on taxes. It shows. His recommendation to loan the government more of your hard-earned dollars (interest free) for a year, by asking your employer to overtax you so you are assured of a tax refund, is ridiculous. “Just pay a professional� to do your taxes is another of his suggestions. I strongly object to being told by Petrick that, “when tax season rolls around, we should all just shut up, stop our complaining and just pay them, no matter how complicated or frustrating they’ve become!� Does this guy work for CRA? A tax regime that has become so complicated that it requires the taxpayer to hire someone to get their own money back is overburdensome and unfair. There once was a time when the annual tax return could be done in an evening with nothing more

than a pencil and a calculator. Now we have to buy tax software (not even tax deductible), or hire a professional. Yes taxes are necessary. I get that. I have no objection to paying my fair share for the core services we all receive, and paid for through taxes. I do object to governments at all levels wasting our tax dollars (gas plants, e-health, Ornge, Senate expenses etc.), and then crying poor. How many hospital beds or parking spaces would the money wasted on Ornge have paid for, I wonder. I also object to being constantly told I have to pay more taxes for an ever-expanding array of questionable and unaffordable government programs (all-day kindergarten, green energy act, etc.) and the bloated and ever-increasing army of “sunshine-listed� civil servants and bureaucrats needed to deliver them. This is occurring at a

time when the costs for other necessities are also increasing dramatically, or creative new “revenue tools� are being imposed on consumers (bank service charges, insurance, energy, etc.). Many of these are also taxable. It’s time for government to stop wasting money, and to simplify its tax regime. It’s a shame Stephen Petrick and others with his complacent attitude don’t understand this. Paul MacDonald, Warkworth

Memory stones for Colborne cenotaphs available for purchase By John Campbell

News - Colborne - Memory stones are now on sale as part of the Colborne Cenotaph Restoration Project. The eight- by 12-inch granite stones are being sold for $150 on a ďŹ rst-come, ďŹ rst-served basis. The cost includes three lines of text. Between 260 and 280 will be sold, with two-thirds reserved for veterans and one-third for supporters. A call for tenders is to go out this week for construction of concrete

pads and a sidewalk that will connect the two World War monuments and fountain to the sidewalk at the south end of Victoria Square. The committee in charge of the restoration, led by former councillor Pat Westrope, raised $50,000 for the project, through cash and in-kind donations from the community, and matching funds from Veterans Affairs. Cramahe Township staff removed the wall around the World War I cenotaph and fencing around the World War II

monument, and prepared the site for the concrete work that is to be done. Westrope made clear the memory stones include men and women who have served in the military, not just those who died while serving their country. Construction won’t begin until after the Colborne-Cramahe Apple Blossom Tyme Festival is held at the end of the month. “I’m guessing the work will take a month, and after that the stones will

While the announcement brought good news for Belleville, it wasn’t so cheery for its plant in ClearďŹ eld, Utah. That plant, a frozen foods operation, was announced to be closed with a loss of about 200 employees, by the end of this year. One of North America’s senior cereal food manufacturers, Kellogg is “the world’s leading cereal company, second-largest producer of cookies, crackers and savory snacks and a leading frozen foods company.â€?

As well, it will bring the park up to 2015 standards and “provide a little bit of cohesiveness� to what’s there, Westrope added. Colborne Legion, Heritage Cramahe and Music in the Square committee were involved in the project to make sure the needs of everybody were met, she said. “I feel really positive,� Westrope said. “Anybody I’ve talked to thinks it’s just a wonderful idea.� Orders for stones have come as far away as Saskatchewan and she has received “quite a few inquiries� since they went on sale less than two weeks ago. “The more we can sell, the more we can install, the more we can dedicate,� Westrope said. Order forms are available online on the township website, <www.visitcramahe.ca>, at the library or by calling Westrope at 905-355-2027 or Lenna Broatch, 905-355-5502.

go in,� she said. A dedication ceremony will likely take place in October. Campbell Monument will supply and etch the stones, and a landscaper will install them. Their cost is being funded entirely by revenue earned from their sale, Westrope said. “It’s pretty much a break-even project.� The price tag for the restoration work includes benches and planters but not picnic tables. Her committee will “probably start asking for corporate sponsorships� or contributions from service clubs and individuals to cover the cost. The planned improvements will preserve a monument that is almost 100 years old –the World War I cenotaph was erected in 1922–and “guarantee the longevity� of an area dedicated to honouring an important part of the township’s history.

Siblings celebrate day they arrived in Brighton to begin new life in Canada

By John Campbell

News - Brighton - The Hansen family–Jens Peter, Osa and their six children–didn’t know what to expect when they landed in Canada in 1955.

They had left Denmark in search of a better future after life back home had turned sour with the loss of livestock, their livelihood, first to hoof-and-mouth disease, and then tuberculosis.

“It was tough,” recalled Ethel Hansen-Davey. “We were in dire straits.” Denmark was still recovering from the Nazi occupation during World War II and her family had

led somewhat of a nomadic existence in its aftermath. “We lived pretty well all over the place after the war,” she said. “Dad shifted around a lot.” So it was a godsend that Immigration Canada “arranged jobs for men coming from Europe to work because there was a male shortage in Canada.” Her father secured a job as a farmhand–even though he couldn’t speak English (nor could any of his family). Leaving their homeland “must have been heart-wrenching” for her parents, who came from big families, but for Hansen-Davey, who was then six years old, “it was an adventure … it was exciting,” crossing the ocean in a Dutch freighter which began its two-week journey in Hamburg, Germany. When the Hansens boarded the train in Montreal, all they knew was that they were headed west, but to where they had no idea. “It could have been B.C.,”

said Erling Hansen, the eldest of the siblings at 75; the youngest is 61. En route they got a telegram telling them to get off at the train station in Brighton. Which they did, on May 1, 1955, 60 years ago last Friday, an occasion the six children chose to celebrate by gathering once more at the station that is now the mainstay of the Memory Junction railway museum. There they recalled their father and Erling being taken by a farmer in a pickup to where they would be living north of Warkworth. The others remained behind because there wasn’t any room left for passengers after the family’s considerable collection of crates and luggage had been loaded onto the truck. They followed hours later in a taxi. “Dad worked for Bill Wilson for a year on his farm in Dartford,” Hansen-Davey said. Even though the place they called home was an old clapboard house that

lacked insulation and they had to use an outhouse, it “was the best place in the world we ever could have landed,” she said. “The neighbours were so kind and wonderful” and the people they met “were outstanding … We’re still friends with so many” of them to this day. “I can’t imagine having grown up anywhere else,” said HansenDavey, who raised a family in Roseneath and now lives in Toronto. “Northumberland County is probably one of the nicest places on the face of the Earth.” Her father found work on other farms in the years that followed, eventually buying a farm on Rice Lake. His two sons, Erling and Preben Hansen, later followed suit, buying farms on Carman Road north of Brighton. The Hansens are proud of their Danish heritage, “but we’re absolutely Canadian,” HansenDavey said. “It all worked out really, really well.”

The Hansen family, l-r, Lene Sharpe (Madoc), Erling Hansen (Brighton), Preben Hansen (Brighton), Bente Barten (Madoc), Ethel Hansen-Davey (Toronto), and Ingrid Brooks (Frankford), gathered at the Memory Junction railway museum May 1 to celebrate their arrival in Brighton 60 years ago to begin a new life far from their homeland of Denmark.

News - Brighton - In a 4 - 3 vote, Councillors John Martinello, Roger McMurray, and Steve Baker voted against contracting tourism services from the Brighton and Cramahe Chamber of Commerce, with Mayor Mark Walas breaking the tie. Walas told council Monday night that he had received a response from the chamber back on March 6, and didn’t pass the information along to his council. He voted against a contract during the April 20 meeting based on council not having received the information. This means Brighton will no longer have a tourism ofďŹ ce, but Councillor Mary Tadman says they could put brochures in the municipal ofďŹ ce foyer and allow tourists to use the facilities, and Councillor John Martinello suggested asking store owners to carry tourism information. 2015 budget passed in Brighton The $6.9-million tax levy for 2015 has been approved by Brighton council, but Councillor Brian Ostrander says he is concerned such a tight budget could leave them in a deďŹ cit position once again at the end of this year. Brighton ran a $56,000 deďŹ cit last year for the ďŹ rst time in recent history. Ostrander said there have already been some large expenses this year. It was a unanimous vote to approve the budget which sees property taxes increases by 1.55 per cent, or about $50 for the average taxpayer. Emergency NotiďŹ cation System on the radar After the recent two-week-long water emergency in Brighton, Mayor Mark Walas said he felt it was important to move forward with plans for an emergency notiďŹ cation system owing to issues with communication. Walas contacted Brighton resident David Green, who also sits on the Police Services Board, to review the system and agreed on a best option, a system that was also recommended by the ďŹ re chief. Councillor Brian Ostrander rewrote Martinello’s motion on the oor that Councillor Steve Baker said was like writing a blank cheque, to have staff bring forward a report including costs, at the May 19 meeting. Residents would have to sign up for notiďŹ cations with up to 28 options, including e-mail addresses and phone numbers. The system was not a part of the budget passed Monday night, and Walas suggested the estimated $6- to $10,000 USD could come from safety reserves. OMB hearing set The Ontario Municipal Board hearing on the proposed Mac’s Convenience and gas bar in Brighton is set for July 16 for a period of up to two days. Planner Ken Hurford says the municipal consultant, Stantec, is currently reviewing site plan options and will meet with Mac’s to present possible site plan revisions in regard to trafďŹ c safety. There are three appellants against the proposed gas bar who have been fundraising to ďŹ ght council’s decision to change the zoning to allow a gas station in the

downtown core against the municipality’s ofďŹ cial plan. Presqu’ile Yacht Club refused an exception Members of the Presqu’ile Yacht Club asked for an exception to the sewage bylaw that disallows boats, RVs and trailers to dump sewage into the municipal system. Last year council passed a bylaw allowing staff to test wastewater coming from local businesses as well as from Presqu’ile Provincial Park and other marinas in the area. While Councillor Mary Tadman says history has shown that the PYC has proven itself, Councillors Roger McMurray and Steve Baker, along with Mayor Mark Walas, voted against it. PYC member Fred Wardle said there is very little sewage discharged into the municipal system from the yacht club, only about 500 gallons a year compared to more than a million gallons put into the system from households. Wardle told council that the PYC is on council’s side and are the Keepers of Presqu’ile Bay, and wouldn’t do anything to destroy it. Councillor John Martinello declared a conict as he is a member of the PYC. RED funding denied Brighton’s downtown revitalization project was eliminated by council earlier this year, and funds that should have been coming from the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs have been stopped. A “Notice of Defaultâ€? letter added to the council package Monday night stated that the ministry is suspending payment of funds and will not be reimbursing the municipality for expenses relating to the project. The OMAFRA representative states in the letter, “Failure to undertake the activities necessary to complete the prwoject is a material breach of the agreement ‌â€? When the program was ďŹ rst cancelled, CAO Gayle Frost indicated the amount to be reimbursed would have been around $28,000. The funds were to have covered a portion of economic development and revitalization staffer Laurie Caouette’s salary plus committee expenses, and all matters pertaining to the downtown revitalization project council started last July. Only $9,723.03 in expenses have been submitted by the municipality to date, and

News - Cramahe Township One of the recommendations Cramahe Township director of operations Dan O’Brien made in his Operations Capacity Review earlier this year was to “explore the possibility of supervisory support” from other municipalities and Northumberland County. He got his wish last week with the announcement that county roads supervisor Dan McBride has been seconded to Cramahe for six months “to support the ongoing development of the Township’s roads management program.” In a joint news release, acting county CAO Jennifer Moore and Cramahe CAO Christie Alexander said the move “reinforces the commitment of both organizations to staff

development, and is another expression of our continuing collaboration to leverage best practices and achieve efficiencies.” McBride, they said, “will make valuable contributions to the advancement of Cramahe roads department goals and priorities.” He has worked 15 years for the county, the last five in a supervisory capacity. “He’s going to work directly with our roads crew on construction and maintenance,” Mayor Marc Coombs said in an interview. “He’s going to be in charge.” O’Brien in his review also recommended that a non-union position be created, foreman for the roads and environmental division, whose duties would include “the full scope of dayto-day supervision of all staff” in

that division. “The Operations Department’s capacity to deliver quality services is being negatively impacted by its current organizational structure,” he wrote. He suggested the county’s roads superintendent be seconded to the township at a cost of $85,000 a year. “We’ve been spending a lot of time going into camera talking about the organizational chart,” Coombs said. “The problem we have with Dan O’Brien’s role as director is that he just doesn’t have enough time for the proper oversight of the guys in the field.” What’s to be done with the organizational chart should be decided before the end of the month when council finally completes its budget deliberations, he said.

Pre-season paddle safety clinics held at YMCA “It’s one of the reasons for our success,� says Tripp. “We listen to our members and do our best to provide what we can with the resources we have. And we have a lot of fun doing it.� The TRPC volunteer paddling instructors stepped up along with the Quinte West YMCA who provided TRPC with their facility and a lifeguard for this event. “We have a great relationship with the QW YMCA,� said Robin

Pilon, TRPC communications director, “and we are thankful for their support of our club activities in this way.� She went on to give thanks to Darren Cole, TRPC member, volunteer and owner/operator of OSTS Outdoors in downtown Trenton. “Darren supplied us with the extra kayaks, SUP’s and safety equipment needed in order for TRPC to run a clinic of this size.� Please see “Self� on page 23

OurTMH committee reaching out to community

News - Quinte West - The OurTMH committee is pleased with the input from the community. There were 223 questionnaires filled out at the recent Home Show and more are expected back by May 8 through the mail. At the committee meeting on April 29

at the Military Family Resource Centre (MFRC) it was noted that the military personnel are not allowed to fill out the forms, otherwise there would have been more input. “It was a huge success,” said co-chair Betty Clost. “Everybody we talked to at the Home Show had a story. It was

real emotional. It’s a reminder that the hospital is full of heart-strings.” Sharon Urquhart added that many of the comments were very positive about the hospital’s cleanliness, positive attitude of the nurses and doctors. “They realize that things are tough,” she said, “and that other locations are not as

Self-rescues, kayak rolls and paddling drills practised Continued from page 22

Tripp explained that there was a large group of novice and experienced paddlers who joined the pool clinics to learn about safety equipment and paddling strokes. Participants also learned about and practised a variety of techniques for wet exits and re-entries, self rescues, kayak rolls, paddling skills and drills. There was a fun stand up paddleboard race to finish off the event. Sandra Arsenault and her husband Randy, are returning TRPC paddling members for the 2015 season. “The pool safety clinic was a brilliant idea,” says Sandra. “It was a great training session, so helpful and so much fun.” Pierre Nolet participated in the pool clinic with his wife, Claire; both are novice paddlers. “This was very informative and a lot of fun,” said Pierre, “and we are looking forward to a great experience with the club.” The Nolets will begin paddling with the club on the Trent River during their weekly guided group paddles on Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings. The group paddles launch

at the TRPC dock at Kiwanis Park, 80 Ontario Street, Trenton. Check-in at the boathouse is at 5:30 p.m. for a 6 p.m. launch. To register for TRPC Paddling memberships, please stop in at the Quinte West Chamber of Commerce at 97 Front Street in Trenton or call them at 613-392-7635.

Wendy Morgan-McBride said they can set up at the Brighton Speedway in the summer at the front gate to pass out information. Mayor Jim Harrison commented there is a competition between Trenton and Belleville to recruit doctors. They need to hire a recruitment person to get more doctors coming to Quinte West. Wendy Warner said the budget for QHC is worse than expected. “It’s going to be a real rough ride after September,” she said, noting that the $3.5 million in funding will have run out. She added that QHC is now ranked as the ninth worse hospital in Ontario, worse than previous rankings. She said QHC will have to take aggressive opportunities. Efficiencies are clearly needed. Steve Brown said the government should be providing healthcare. “Why are we dealing with it?“ he asked. Warner said the dollars are there but they are earmarked. The problem is the funds have shifted to community care, and less to the hospitals. “What is essential to the hospital and what can be delivered at home?” she asked. “We have to get the community involved. We need a multi-site formula. The pressure has to be maintained. This $30 million will not go away.” Mike Cowan said OurTMH has to be front and centre and get the population involved. Warner noted that Paul Huras, CEO of the South East Local Health Integration Network (LHIN), has said that being a multi-site hospital does not make any difference in the funding.

TRPC invites you to like their Facebook page at Trenton Rowing and Paddling Club for regular updates, event postings and photos.

Ethics board volunteers wanted News - Belleville - Loyalist College is establishing a Research Ethics Board (REB) to ensure compliance as the college’s research and funding opportunities continue to expand and evolve. The committee includes a community volunteer position, and the college is encouraging interested individuals to contact the office of the Senior Vice-President, Academic and Student Success at 613969-1913 ext. 2385 or <JBlair@Loyalistc.on.ca> to learn more about this opportunity. The REB will consist of a minimum of five members, including the REB

Chair. All members will be Canadian citizens or permanent residents. At least one community member is required and will have no affiliation with Loyalist College. Members will attend all monthly meetings, held between September and June. All members are required to complete a tutorial course on research ethics. The community member’s primary role is to reflect the perspective of the research participant. This is particularly important when participants are vulnerable and/or risks to participants are high.

happy.” Wendy Morgan-McBride said one lady who uses a scooter was upset at not finding a parking spot at Belleville hospital. Steve Brown added they also raised $419 in donations at the show which they can use as a float for the committee for publishing brochures or marketing. Chair Mike Cowan noted that people don’t mind donating to the cause, but the committee is continuously looking for funding. “We have to, or we will find ourselves at the drop point,” he said. Steve Brown said there is a lot of support from the people who see it as worthwhile. Mike Cowan noted there is a symposium in Batawa on May 13 with the members of the committee invited. There is also an open house scheduled for May 20 from 1 to 7 p.m. at Quinte West city hall and in Brighton on May 27, with no location determined. “Brighton is under-represented,” Cowan added. Cowan said there is still a lot of anger from people about Quinte Health Care (QHC). “They will not accept the removal of the H from TMH,” he said. Mayor Jim Harrison added they want essential services kept. Betty Clost said patients need to ask their doctors if tests can be done at TMH instead of at other locations. Sharon Urquhart pointed out that some specialists can be seen at Trenton hospital, otherwise “the dollars are out our door.”

World Floorball Championships in Belleville a year away By Stephen Petrick

Sports - Belleville - The countdown for the Girls Under-19 World Floorball Championships in Belleville is on. A celebration was held at the Quinte Mall on Saturday, May 2, to raise awareness of the international sporting event, which will come to the Quinte Sports & Wellness Centre in a year. The championships take place May 2 to 8, 2016. “We’re as ready as we can be,” given that it’s one year away, said Brett Davis, the president of the team running the event, and the general manager for Team Canada. The biggest task ahead over the next 365 days, he said, will be securing sponsorships for the event. He said $120,000 needs to be raised to cover such things as facility rentals, referee costs and even drug testing, as floorball is an Local dignitaries used floorball sticks to cut a cake at the Quinte Mall on Saturday to celebrate the one-year countdown to the International Olympic Committee Girls Under-19 World Floorball Championships in Belleville.

in the Yardmen Arena. He hopes to get school groups out to games involving other countries; those take place during weekdays. While countries such as Sweden, Finland and Switzerland are floorball powerhouses, Davis believes the Canadian team will have a shot at the gold. The team, coached by Belleville’s Todd Crawford, has been recruiting players over the past year and will head to California in August, for an exhibition series with the U.S. But right now organizers are focussed on building another successful team–a team of volunteers. About 300 are needed to make the event a success. Interested volunteers can contact Volunteer & Information Quinte at <volunteer@ viq.ca> or 613-969-8862 to find out how they can become involved.

While it will take some time and effort to raise those funds, Davis is confident it can be achieved. “It will be a challenge off the bat to get some big sponsors, but the little sponsors will come, because it’s a great event.” Floorball is essentially hockey played on a dry surface, although there are some rules that separate it from the ice game. For instance, players cannot raise their stick above their waist, nor can they catch the ball in midair. Davis said it’s growing in popularity in Canada, but in Europe it’s huge. He said, in Sweden, there are more youth registered in floorball leagues than ice hockey leagues. He hopes the championships in Belleville will raise the profile of the sport here. Canada will play in the B pool he said, which allows them to play the rival United States in a game, which Davis hopes will lead to a large crowd of up to 2,000 people

News - Cramahe Township The municipality has re-organized its staff following a service delivery review. “The overall effect is we save some money and the organization’s a little flatter,” Mayor Marc Coombs said in an interview. “I think it’s an excellent solution … going forward, for this term anyways.” Most of the changes won’t take place until after Dan O’Brien moves up from director of operations and becomes the new CAO the end of June when the current chief administrative officer, Christie Alexander, retires. O’Brien’s position, director of operations, will disappear, to be replaced by manager of operations. Northumberland County’s roads

supervisor has been seconded to Cramahe to fill the post for six months. A half-dozen people will report to O’Brien–the municipal clerk, treasurer, fire chief, manager of parks and recreation, manager of operations, and chief building official–rather than four as is now the case with Alexander, Coombs said. O’Brien was initially hired as director of community services but was given extra responsibilities when the municipality’s director of public works went elsewhere. That became a problem, Coombs said. “We needed more direct supervision and follow-up [but] Dan was busy doing large projects, doing this, doing that,” as well as filling in for Alexander whenever she was away. He also looked after bylaw

enforcement for a while, he added. The additional workload came at the expense of road maintenance. “We’ve had a lot of issues for years with the amount of work that needs to be done” on township roads, Coombs said. “You don’t maintain them properly they end up costing us so much more money in the long run, so we really need to be doing that,” using equipment the township had purchased for that purpose. “We want to be satisfied that it’s being used to its potential,” he said. Treasurer Mora Chatterson had asked that a financial analyst be hired to take on some of her responsibilities but council ultimately rejected that request because of the projected cost, between $50,000 and $66,000. The receptionist at the Keeler

Centre will relocate to the municipal office and report to the treasurer to provide some help. The switch will take place when O’Brien moves, and a person will be hired parttime at Keeler to handle reception as well as events. Last Friday the township said farewell to its deputy-clerk, who was hired by Trent Hills, and it has begun advertising for a clerk. In replacing Alexander, Coombs said “it’s a lot better to be able to promote from within,” to lessen the wage burden and to make the changeover easier. You don’t want to go out to “the open market to try to find somebody because they’re so hard to find [and] despite what everybody may think, our wages are not near the top, so it’s very competitive,” he said.

Woman charged with three counts of uttering death threats News - East Northumberland Northumberland OPP received a report of scrap metal being stolen from a farm property on the Brighton-Cramahe Boundary Road April 30. A nylon coat was reported stolen by a downtown business in Brighton April 29. Any person with information concerning these or other crimes is asked to contact the OPP at 1-888-310-1122. Should you wish to remain anonymous, call the Peterborough/ Northumberland Crime Stoppers

at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS). You may be eligible for a cash reward of up to $2,000 and not have to appear in court. Police responded to a domestic disturbance at a Colborne home April 28 around 12:15 a.m. A 49-year-old woman was charged with three counts of uttering threats to cause death, and mischief under $5,000 in connection to a damaged vehicle and front door. Names were withheld. Officers investigated a report of a vehicle in the centre grass

median on Highway 401 two kilometres west of the Brighton exit around 3:30 a.m. The driver, who was uninjured, “could give no reasonable explanation for his loss of control,” Northumberland OPP media relations officer Constable Steve Bates said in his weekly report. The 28-year-old Oxford Station man was charged with careless driving and the vehicle was towed from the scene. There was a collision between a 2014 Subaru and a tractortrailer in the eastbound lane of

Highway 401 April 27 around 3:30 p.m. The 18-year-old male driver of the car from Toronto was charged with following too close under the Highway Traffic Act. There were no injuries. Around 9:30 p.m. police attended a Brighton-area home where an intoxicated 21-yearold female threatened self-harm. She had reportedly consumed a 26-ounce bottle of liquor that day. Paramedics transported her to a nearby hospital for treatment and a mental health assessment.

Brighton-Cramahe Chamber moving west from BCCC executive director Sherry Hamilton on behalf of her board. It would appear that the current council clearly does not have economic development or tourism as priorities. Attempts to

negotiate a contract have proved futile. The tremendous amount of time spent by the board and the executive director on trying to deal with the current council is distracting and taking away from time that should be spent on sup-

Pregnancy and Family Care Quinte West celebrates one year

porting our business community and engaging with other partners on strategic opportunities that build a strong economic base. The BCCC strongly feels that economic development and tourism are vitally important to the long-term well-being of our area and we should be focused on supporting our local businesses to thrive and grow, as well as working to attract new businesses. This creates jobs and helps increase the tax base to take the burden off the residential taxpayer. “It is disappointing that these goals aren’t shared by at least a majority of the current council, but we recognize that they are duly elected and respect their deci-

sions,” President Burke Friedrichkeit said in the release. “We feel it is important to get back to business and move forward on a number of strategic projects that we are working on.” In order to fulfill the tourism contract, the BCCC currently leases space at 74 Main Street in Brighton. This space serves the community and local businesses as an information hub where visitors can access local information and advice. It also provides public washrooms. As a direct result of the municipality passing a motion to end funding immediately, the BCCC has been forced to make an early exit from their existing lease and find other suitable office space.

This is an unfortunate turn of events but without the tourism contract there is no need or financial capability to remain at the current address, states the release. “Along with Agriculture, Tourism is one of the top two largest industries in Northumberland County and that’s especially true here in Brighton,” said Hamilton in the release. “There are countless small businesses such as B&B’s, restaurants, campgrounds, retail and specialty shops and others relying on a strong tourism economy. We can only hope that Brighton Council will have a plan moving forward to provide the proper level of support.”

News - Trenton - It has been just over a year since the Pregnancy and Family Care Centre set up at 20 Joseph Street in Trenton. “We are here to boost public awareness,” said director Deseray Leaver at a barbecue at Smylie’s Independent on Saturday. The Trenton centre is a satellite of the Belleville Pregnancy and Family Care Centre in Belleville at 200 Dundas Street East. There is also a satellite at 135 Elgin Street in Madoc. The centre serves any pregnant woman in the community, whether they are facing an unplanned pregnancy or experiencing postabortion stress. Services are also available to her family and the father of the baby. “We are here to answer questions, present options and give support through the decision-making process and beyond,” Leaver says. The organization is locally organized and funded by a non-profit Christian agency. It is governed by a board of di-

rectors, and managed by a director and staff with the help of well-trained volunteers, in a confidential setting. Services include a Women’s LEAD (A Life Encouraged and Directed) program, a six-week program for women including segments on self-esteem, relationships, intimacy, boundaries and communication. A Grandmother’s Heart Program is a postnatal service where a volunteer will come to the home to help the mother and child just out of the hospital. The Parenting Program is seven one-hour sessions to provide a place for parents to learn, grow and develop parenting awareness and skills that will benefit families. A Post Abortion Care Program includes Christianbased post abortion peer counselling. Free pregnancy tests, information on pregnancy and options, referrals for medical care, housing or legal assistance, ongoing support before and after delivery, and material assistance including

maternity wear, baby clothes (zero to two) and equipment are available. The Trenton centre is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. No appointment is necessary. All services are free. For more information see <www.pfcqw.ca> or call 613-392-0074 or email <director@ pfcqw.ca>. TICO#50007364

t has been several months since we last fired up our BBQ’s, but in mid-April, we were out in the pouring rain and bitterly cold wind, doing our thing at the Brighton Public School Fun Fair. Such is the life of a busy group of volunteers following Rotary principles and doing good in the community. Some of the local organizations that rec’d our financial assistance included the Northumberland OPP Safety Village; Brighton Army Cadets, Trent Valley Quilters (Preemie division); Brighton Health Services Centre; Boston Marathoner Brittany Moran in support of Alzheimer’s Society; and the Brighton Fire Dept (smoke and carbon monoxide alarm project). But, as you know, we also give back by helping out with local BBQ’s when our schedules permit and already, we seem to have been booked tight this coming summer with numerous BBQ’s. And, let’s not forget the day spent at Brighton Public School in midApril, when Rotarians Dave. Michael and Gayle taught the Junior Achievement program known as “Economics of Staying In School”. Or, what about Easter Monday evening where you could have found numerous Rotarians joining togeth-

er at the Maplewood Retirement Home to sing for the residents, who also sang along and danced to the music. Melissa D’Onofrio-Jones of the Brighton Public Library was our first speaker of the month. Here message was that our library is more than just books. The Library’s Board’s Vision and Goal is to stimulate learning, share information and build a better community. And, based upon how busy they are, it appears to be so successful, that certainly, they do need to expand which means finding a new location. The hope is that this move would provide further room for program opportunities and space for meetings, reading, researching, new technology, innovative circulating collections, expand children’s programs. etc. In past newsletters, we have promoted our Youth Exchange program. In late April, we were delighted to welcome the family of our French Exchange Student, Chloe as her father, Xavier; her mother, Isabelle and sister Marlene visited our area and in fact, Xavier spoke to our club. A few of his quotes – “This year is a really good experience for Chloe as she experiences a differ-

Also, Susah Shephard, an ongoing hard working volunteer representing the Cancer Society’s Relay For Life received our donation to the local event later this month. We also now know that our 20152016 Youth Exchange Student is Lea Haberdeitz from Switzerland. After a very successful raffle ticket promotion at No Frills in March and early April, we are still promoting our “Diners and Duffers Books” which offers a huge amount of discounts to local golf courses and restaurants. At only $35 each, you really only need to use one or two discounts and the book is paid for. If you want one, call Rotarian Dave at 614-475-5109. Finally, accolades go out to our Rotarian Dave Sharp who was voted Brighton’s 2015 Citizen of the Year for his community efforts through Rotary, Presqu’ile Point Lighthouse Preservation Society and other organizations.

Trenton Care and Share Food Bank stretched to the limit

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - The Trenton Care and Share Food Bank is being stretched to the limit. “It is very clear that the food bank is serving a population that, because of low income, is unable to buy sufficient food to feed themselves and their families,” says board chair Sue Nigro. She said many of the households are coming to the food bank once a month now and that necessity is taking a huge toll on the inventory of food. “We are giving out five times more food in a month than is coming in,” she said. “Consequently, at the end of March, we had enough stock on hand to last only three months. She said that means that shortly they will be buying large quantities of non-perishable foodstuffs, in addition to the perishables they regularly buy that include meat, milk, bread and eggs. The Care and Share Food Bank is almost entirely dependent on donations from the local community to continue its work of providing food for the “food insecure.” “We urgently need the community’s help now in order to restock the shelves so that we will have enough food on hand to last until our annual food drive that takes place on Saturday, October 3 [the weekend before Thanksgiving],” Nigro said.

Custom Engineered Roof Trusses & Floor Systems

Sports - Brighton - An impressive 56 cars came through the pit gate at Brighton Speedway for the 48th season opener presented by Monster Energy and Kellogg’s Belleville Saturday night. A near capacity crowd filled the stands and two trailers with non-perishable food donations for the Brighton Fare Share Food Bank. Brighton Speedway’s Pro Late Model division raced under Rush Late Model Series sanctioning for the first time. The 30-lap main event was a tightly contested three-car showdown but Picton driver Corey Earl won. Polesitter Phil Potts led until Steve Baldwin used a great run off the bottom of turn four to briefly take over the lead. Baldwin cleared the No. 29 with five to go. Earl

followed Baldwin’s lead and also snuck by Potts. Earl used the bottom lane to force Baldwin up the racetrack. The veteran driver led into turn one before washing up to the middle lane to break Baldwin’s momentum. Earl took the checkers. Potts held on to the third spot while Adam Turner and Kyle Sopaz were fourth and fifth, respectively. Andrew Hennessy started on the pole for the OilGARD Canadian Modified A-main and never relinquished the top spot over the course of 25 laps surviving charges from Dan Ferguson and Doug O’Blenis to earn the first victory of the season. Ferguson made sure Hennessy had his hands full off the start, quickly moving up to second from his third-place starting spot. A flat tire for Ferguson brought

out the yellow at lap 20, leaving Hennessy to battle it out with O’Blenis and Adam Whaley. O’Blenis looked as though he had sewn up a second-place finish until the car died on the final lap. The No.32 machine came back to life, but not before Whaley stole the runner-up spot. Kraig Handley finished fourth. Ferguson rallied to finish fifth. A tough Brighton Automotive Pro Stock race renewed a rivalry between Doug Anderson and Justin Ramsay. Both drivers won their heat races and the right to start on the front row for the 20-lap main event. Handicapping procedures are not used at the beginning of the season. Anderson led in the early laps and held off Ramsay on a pair of early restarts. Ramsay got underneath An-

derson on lap 10 to start a two-lap side-by-side battle. By lap 12, Ramsay had the lead, but a final caution on lap 14 gave Anderson another chance. Leslie Mowat and Jamie Marshall waged a great battle for most of the race and finished third and fourth, respectively. Samantha Thompson completed the top five. Brandon Murrell spun in turn

two and Jonah Mutton had nowhere to go but into Murrell’s right door. Mutton got the worst of the wreck and neither car returned to the race. The front row dominated the Bill’s Johns Comp 4 15-lap feature with polesitter Tyler French walking away the victor. Second-place starter Austin Reid led the middle portion of the race. French led off the original start, but Reid erased the lead to take the

top spot on lap four. French challenged the young Brighton driver, but couldn’t regain the top spot. Tyler Parker drew the only caution when he went off the track. French got the better of Reid on the ensuing restart and took the advantage straight to victory lane. Shelby Mills pressured the top two, but settled for third ahead of top-five finishers Riley Greer and Emily Weedman.

28 Brighton Independent - Thursday, May 7, 2015

Minor football teams practise for the big leagues Sports - Quinte West - Football hopefuls from elementary schools are on the ground running for the big time. “They practise three times a week,” said Paul Coveney, former Trenton High School football player and currently a firefighter at Station One. “They started the first of April and go right through to the end of June.” Jeff McDougall is the head football coach at Trenton High School and he was on the field along with Tony Lombardi from St. Paul’s showing the football players how to play a good game. Students were from Grades 5 to 8, all different sizes, learning how to kick off and tackle with the best of them. “They want to play football in high school,” Coveney said. “This will give them the basics.” He said there are eight teams in the Belleville Minor Football league, two from Trenton, three from Belleville, one from Bancroft, one from Madoc and one from Campbellford. A practice game on April 29 included the Trenton Kiwanis Tigers and Scotts Haulage Diamond Electric Falcons. Coveney said the league started in 2001 with the majority from Belleville. He got Trenton teams involved and now they are on the ground learning defence and offence, with 24 on the field at one time. “It’s a nice league,” he said. “It costs them $160 to sign up. We pro-

vide all the equipment, jerseys, socks and mouth guards. They buy their own shoes.” He said despite the difference in sizes of the players, they all work together well. The team is the equivalent of a house league. Some of them may get into rugby as well. Several volunteer coaches assist in in the practices. “It’s nice to have lots of help on the field,” he added. He said the players get used to hitting and admitted that it’s not easy to take sometimes. “It hurts a little bit,” he said.

Great weekend for fishing in Kiwanis Walleye World By Kate Everson

Sports - Quinte West - The 35th annual Kiwanis Walleye World Fishing Derby on May 2 and 3, was a huge success, with over 3,000 anglers on the waters of the Bay of Quinte with nine weigh stations from Picton to Napanee, Trenton, Brighton and Belleville. “The weather was a lot better than last year,” said chair for the fourth year Remco DeGooyer. “It was a beautiful weekend.” He said the Trenton Kiwanis Club has only 25 members but did a fantastic job organizing the event. “It was impressive,” he said. “This is the largest registered fishing derby of its kind in North America.” He said it has been live release for many years to ensure that fishing stocks are kept intact. If a fish does not survive the weigh-in it does not count for the prizes. Fish are kept alive in a tank at the fishing derby weigh-in stations before being released. “We watch to see if it lives,” he said. “It can spend up to 15 minutes in the tank. Sometimes we push it through the water to get the air into its gills.” Children loved watching the fish in the tank as well as outside in the huge aquarium set up at the Trenton headquarters. There was also a jumbo slide, rock climbing and barbecues for families during the day. Many camped along the river in tents or trailers, watching the boats all lit up fishing throughout the night from midnight Friday to Sunday at 4 p.m. Awards were presented in the arena on Sunday at 5 p.m., a new venue for the derby headquarters which was previously held in a tent. Winner of the top prize, the biggest walleye at 12.88 pounds was Ryan Tropea from Ottawa with his buddy Mike Adamec from Keswick. They caught the big fish right in Trenton waters on Ryan Tropea hoists his trophy for first place in Senior Walleye presented by David Chong of Ultra Tungsten tackle. The 35th annual event was a huge success, with over 3,000 anglers on the waters of the Saturday night with a Rapala lure. Please see “Water” on page B4 Bay of Quinte. Photo: Kate Everson

A story of a West African boy, some chicks and loose change By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - The story of a West African boy named Kojo recently captured the hearts of the Kindergarten students at Hillcrest Public School. It all began in the classroom with the birth of eight healthy chicks hatched in an incubator. “I am so excited I am going to

explode,â€? said Kindergarten student Piper Nichols. “They really enjoyed the experience and loved watching and waiting for our chicks to arrive and now they are thrilled to have the responsibility of feeding them and seeing ďŹ rsthand the daily changes,â€? commented their teacher Joy Petherick.

For these students the answer to the question what came ďŹ rst the chicken or the egg was simple in this situation, the egg of course, because local dairy farmer Jerry McKelvie delivered them to the classroom. “He brought a dozen eggs and they were able to ask questions and he had questions for the kids. It was a lot of

information sharing,â€? Petherick said. And thus began a 21-day project for the Kindergarten class. “Each day the students followed the visuals we have on a chart and had an excellent video to watch. We were so impressed with the connections they made,â€? said Sarah Real. Petherick and Real are the Early Learning Kindergarten team at this Campbellford school. In the book One Hen: How One Small Loan Made a Big Difference, which is used for classroom teaching, Kojo receives a small loan to buy a hen, and takes ight as an entrepreneur. He moves gradually from poverty, to well-being, to provider who creates opportunities for others. It is described on the educational website as a story of how the world undergoes change–one person, one family, and one community at a time. The Kindergarten students were asked what would they do if they had a small loan and at ďŹ rst they said “a slushy, toys, a chocolate bar,â€? but after learning about Kojo and how his father had died and how he was trying to help by buying a hen, they soon understood the importance of the money. “It was amazing how they made the connection and they wanted to help so it really was spearheaded by them making

that connection with the book and wanting to help and reach out to others, so it’s great empathy,� commented Real. “So Kojo raised the chicken and they could have eggs and eat the eggs and some were left over so he sold the eggs to raise money to buy two chickens,� said Lily Fischer, one of the students. “From this story the students learned how a small amount of money can make a big difference to families in other countries around the world. We then decided to raise some money here at school to purchase chickens for families living in the Third World,� added Petherick. The next project “loose change� saw students bringing in dimes one day of the week, quarters, then loonies and toonies. The enthusiasm started in the Kindergarten classroom but “When we went to the assembly and shared it with the entire school and told them about this book a lot of the other teachers bought into it and wanted to be a part of it,� Real explained. “Together we can make a difference,� said the teachers as the students of Kindergarten 101 chimed in with enthusiasm. No word yet on how much money was raised or to which organization it will go.

News - Campbellford - The universal appeal of ying a kite has been a phenomenon for centuries and continues to rise in popularity making the 14th annual Friends of Ferris (FofF) Kite Day a popular outing for many. Last year more than 125 people showed up for the event according to Anne Kidd, a director with the FofF board. She helps Kite Day Chair Sandy Chapman make sure everyone has a good time. “I love kite ying. It’s something I never did as a kid,â€? Chapman told the Trent Hills Independent. “We have friends and family that do kite surďŹ ng,â€? she added with a grin. Hopes are high that the annual Kite Day will attract another big crowd of participants. “We get a lot of local people but we also have people come from as far away as Toronto and from nearby Peterborough and Stirling just to enjoy the kite ying,â€? she said. “We had a lot of people with special needs come out in the

past so people should know we have a DeBug all-terrain wheelchair at the park and it will be at the kite day site, available for use,â€? she added. Avid kite yers will often bring their own kites, many of which are homemade. “We have kites we cut too ‌ sled kites,â€? said Chapman. “We can provide everything anyone needs to make a kite,â€? she commented. “Carol Robertson, [vice president FofF], went around to all the lumber yards and got their wrapping material so we use the white side and have templates to make kites,â€? she explained. Friends of Ferris volunteers will be at the event to help kite ying enthusiasts build their own kite. A barbecue and refreshments that day will help raise money for the non-proďŹ t organization. There is no charge to participate in the event, however, donations are welcomed. Any money raised goes back into the FofF programs and activities at the park. Members assist in the

maintenance of trails, trail markers and have installed trail benches so park visitors can sit and enjoy the area. A major project undertaken by the Friends in partnership with the Campbellford Rotary Club was a new picnic shelter built by volunteers; it can be used for family gatherings, company picnics and special events. Another recent improvement was the purchase and installation of playground equipment. As well the group purchased The 14th annual Kite Day is being hosted by Friends of Ferris on Sunday, May 24.

Waters were warm and the fish were biting

Continued from page B1

Tropea had been fishing since midnight on Friday. “We caught about forty walleye before we got that one,” he said. “We always do well here. You have to put the time in, and get lucky.” He won a 2015 Legend 16 CX boat with a Mercury 50 horsepower motor and a trailer. Second in the senior walleye was Roch Desjardins with a 12.8 pounder and third was Josh Adams with 12.76. Josh Adams from Kingston said he caught his pike on Saturday morning in Hay Bay with his buddy Matt Lee and was hoping that would be the winner. He was first on the leader board for a few hours until the other numbers came in. He won a kayak and rack from Ocean Kayaks. Winner of the biggest pike was

Paul McTaggart from Belleville with a 15.43-pound pike. Second was Garnet Armitage with 14.72 and third was Nick Baker with 14.35. “I caught the pike just east of Picton Saturday morning,” McTaggart said. “We had been fishing for about four hours and caught about 65 pike.” He said he was very proud to have won first place. His friend Jeremy Bench was with him in the boat. He noted that fish are late spawning this year and the water temperature was warm. He has been fishing in the tournament for several years and once came in eighth.

Commodores to hold scholarship concert, release new CD May 14

Entertainment - Belleville - One thing about the late Bruce Parsons: his friendliness and love of music made him the Quinte area’s favourite trumpet teacher for dozens of young musicians. One of them was Blair Yarranton, now a grizzled veteran in the trumpet section of the Commodores Orchestra, which will stage its second annual Bruce Parsons Scholarship Concert at Centennial Secondary School on Thursday, May 14, at 7:30 p.m. Yarranton now teaches instrumental music at Centennial. Last year, the Commodores presented $1,500 in scholarships to help three university-bound musicians with their postsecondary education. Yarranton says the band would like to do more in 2015. “Bruce Parsons gave so much to everyone around him. We were astounded by the generosity of people … there’s still this huge wellspring of affection people feel for Bruce. People from as far away as England contributed, if they couldn’t attend the show. We want to keep this thing going in a big way.” In addition to the scholarships, part of the money raised last year helped the Commodores establish the new Quinte Youth Jazz Ensemble, which has been rehearsing since September. It’s made up of 17 student musicians from all over the Quinte area between the ages of 11 and 17, who have

an extracurricular opportunity to develop their jazz skills. The “Navy Blues,” as they are also known, will play at the May 14 concert, as will the Centennial Secondary School Jazz Orchestra. The Commodores will also release their new CD Live at the Stirling Festival Theatre at the May 14 show. It was recorded at the band’s Stirling Theatre

show in September. Tickets are $20. Advance tickets are available at Parsons Cleaners in Belleville, which is promising a ten-dollar reduction in their next cleaning bill for customers who present their show ticket after May 14. Donations can also be made at Parsons Cleaners, or by contacting Andy Sparling at 613968-8691.

Barbershop is a family show

Entertainment - When it comes to “harmony,” it’s hard to beat old-fashioned barbershop singing. Once again the Quinte area’s all-male barbershop chorus, A Cappella Quinte, presents its annual show on the Mother’s Day weekend–a perfect treat for the whole family. Special guests for this year’s show are four well-seasoned Toronto area singers called “Cruisin’” who have entertained audiences across Canada and the United States with both song and hilarious comedy for several years now. This marks their first appearance in the annual Quinte Chapter show. Along with them will be the chorus’s own quartet of many years standing and well-known in the area, In-Four-Mation plus the almost 40 voices of today’s A Cappella Quinte chorus, now one of the larger ones in Ontario singing songs spanning the decades right through to songs by the Beatles. Cruisin’ brings its own unique talents and repertoire with a captivating presentation spanning the golden age of doo wop and rock and roll up to modern times, throwing in generous portions of humour. A traditional highlight of the spring season, the local chorus show has been part of the scene for several decades and has delighted many thousands over the years. This

Toronto area singers, Cruisin’.

year’s show is Saturday, May 9, at 7:30 p.m. in the acoustically rich and comfortable Maranatha Church on College Street West, with lots of parking.

Tickets at $20 will be available at the door, also in advance at the Quinte Arts Council Office or from members of the chorus.

TRAVEL

A visit to the deepest gorge in North America National Park the previous day, I headed into Kings Canyon National Park, where I soon found myself in General Grant Grove, surrounded by several gigantic sequoias. In fact, this is home to the world’s second largest sequoia tree (the largest sequoia is located in nearby Sequoia National Park), named the General Grant, and former President Calvin Coolidge nicknamed it the “Nation’s Christmas Tree.” It’s still decorated for the Christmas season each year, and it certainly attracts many tourists to the site. Kings Canyon National Park is actually divided into two separate sections, so after exploring the western section of the park at Grant Grove, I actually drove northeast, out of the park, still on Route #180, through the steepest section of the canyon, past Kings Canyon Lodge, where gas and food are available, and eventually back into the park near Cedar Grove, which is the only portion of this main section of the park that’s accessible by motor vehicle. the Much of this route was a rather steep nature store descent, and I some cyclists Just Arrived! met who seemed Something to be merrily

Lifestyles - On my most recent visit to California, I drove into Kings Canyon National Park, home to the deepest canyon in North America. Yes, it’s even deeper than the Grand Canyon, and one of its deepest portions is at the confluence of the middle and south forks of Kings River. Since I was flying out of Fresno, this central California city made a great base for my trip to and from the park, and I stayed right next to this airport at the Holiday Inn Fresno Airport. It was very easy to pick up my car rental right across the street from the hotel, too, and the trip to the park was about an hour to the east, on Route #180. As I arrived at the park’s entrance, I could choose to head south into Sequoia National Park or north into Kings Canyon National Park. The two parks are administered by the same superintendent, and one entrance fee works for exploring both parks. Since I’d already explored Sequoia

plummeting down into the canyon. However, as a cyclist myself, I couldn’t help worrying about their struggle ahead to get back up out of that canyon, for this road would eventually dead-end and they would have to turn around and begin pedalling back up. Arriving at this lower section of the park, at the east end, on the canyon floor, I found a couple of very nice short hikes to waterfalls. For example, Roaring River Falls was located just five kilometres east of the Cedar Grove Village, and a short walk on a paved path brought me to a powerful waterfall rushing through a granite chute. I also found a short, paved walk (handicap accessible) to Grizzly Falls, and I did a nice hike in the nearby Zumwalt Meadow, which took me through fields sprinkled with colourful wildflowers, along the Kings River. Returning to my car, I continued heading east, to Roads End. This is as far as one can drive east, but it’s the starting point for several intriguing backcountry footpaths, including Bubbs Creek Trail and Mist Falls Trail. For the truly avid hiker, the Pacific Crest Trail, a more than 4,000-kilometre route between Canada and Mexico, passes through this park, so connections to this very long pathway can be made. Since so much of the park is not

accessible by motor vehicle, there’s a lot of opportunity for wilderness camping and hiking. However, if you prefer, lodging is available in both the Cedar Grove and Grant Grove sections of the park. As I turned around and began my ascent out of the canyon, I checked out Knapp’s Cabin (an old cabin located on the shore of Kings River, where a California businessman stored gear

for his fishing trips during the Roaring Twenties), Boyden Cave (where tours are offered into a giant underground cavern, with stalagmites, stalactites, a subterranean stream, and a bat grotto), and some spectacular viewpoints, including Canyon View, Yucca Point, and Junction View. Kings Canyon National Park, located east of Fresno, in the Sierra Nevada, is only a couple of hundred miles from San Francisco and Los Angeles, and yet it’s an opportunity for a real escape into wilderness and solitude.

Antique fishing and sports supplies event a great success By Margriet Kitchen

News - Marmora - Saturday, May 2, the Marmora Legion Branch 237 hall was the location of choice for many enthusiasts of antique fishing gear and associated items. The venue was filled to capacity with collectors and traders from all parts of Canada, including several Ontario communities and British Columbia. The equipment, antique reels, poles, baits and accessories attracted a steady flow of visitors during the day. Unusual items included a large glass beaker designed to be used in fish culture of many years ago, to allow the fertilization and safe growth of fish larvae. Wooden “plugs,” old style muskie minnow baits, unusual tin manufacture lures, and beautifully manufactured and even finely inscribed fishing reels were on display. Poles made of all kinds of materials as well as the traditional bamboo fly rods; fishing reels of brass, Spike, Sidemount, birdcage, Indiana and Kentucky material and design could be found at many of

All the vendors eagerly shared their enthusiasm for the hobby of collecting antique fishing tackle, as well as rare and unusual books, maps, finely crafted storage cases and much more. An easy camaraderie was evident as friendships were renewed, and newcomers to the hobby were welcomed to the event. Paul and Karen Labonte of Kanata are the show organizers. “We have had a successful show. We’ll be here again next year, the first weekend in May.” This has been a good turnout, people buying as well as swapping gear. Vendors are happy with sales. There are a lot of treasures. Vendors are here from Ottawa, Toronto, Creemore, British Columbia, Sudbury, and of course, Marmora. “I find this location in Marmora is perfect, since it is midway between the major centres of Toronto and Ottawa, with so many other population centres in between as well. Marmora is a great location.”

The Good Earth: Lifestyles - Good fences make good neighbours. It’s tough to nail down the origin of that aphorism although many of us are familiar with Robert Frost’s inclusion of it in his poem, Mending Wall. Another erudite American, Benjamin Franklin, offered a similar sentiment, which fits

today’s column rather well: “Love your neighbor yet don’t pull down your hedge.” Today’s title, “Hedging Your Bets,” has an origin that predates the current financial interpretation. Way back when, so far back that etymologists have a difficult time in their discerning,

Hedging your bets

planting a hedge around a property was done in order to maintain the original size of that parcel of land. In other words, it was done to ensure that boundaries didn’t creep outward and what was inside that property stayed within it. It is interesting to note that on occasion a “traditionally” accepted property line, denoted by a generations old hedge, is given credence over an actual surveyor’s certificate. For most of us, in our modern era, a hedge is primarily an ornamental affair and, if you do trim it FACTORY OUTLET STORE OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK! occasionally, it is a simple form of topiary. Any plant can be used to form a hedge, from Lavendula ans#HOC BULK OLAT gustifolia to the ubiquitous Thuja !LMOEN #OVERED DS s #ARA occidentalis, aka white cedar.

hedge but only have a width of four feet in which to work, you might select a DeGroot’s Spire over a western red. A third thought centres around the longevity of the plant and the ability to replace damaged sections years down the road. In the case of deciduous hedging, it is possible to pleach or lay down a hedge (cutting into the stem near the base deeply enough so it can be bent over without causing serious injury) so that existing material can fill in any spaces. Have some fun with your choices. Ninebark, Physocarpus opulifolius, is a rugged, colourful shrub that has benefitted from attention by the plant propagation boffins over the past decade or so. There are many new cultivars, with very similar forms, from which to choose, so you can play around a bit. Perhaps the first ten feet can be the dark chocolate leafed Diabolo, followed by the chartreuse accents of Dart’ Gold and then anchored by the coppery orange tints of Coppertina, a cross between the first two. When to prune depends on what you plant. A spring-flowering hedge,

Dan Clost e.g. bridal wreath spirea, is best trimmed immediately after flowering; a row of yews, e.g. Hick’s Yew, prefers a late fall clipping. Always gen up on the plant’s bio. Most hedges are clipped into some sort of formal shape and, if yours is in this group, then that shape should be wider on the bottom than on the top so that all parts of the hedge receive its share of sunshine. Pruning should be deliberate in the sense that free-form trimming is not always desirable. Don’t be afraid to run a guideline. If you’re cutting out an arch or symmetrical feature, make a cardboard or plywood jig. It’s possible a neighbour might turn up an eyebrow as you struggle with its placement, but they will nod approvingly when all is said and done. And that is hedging your bets.

far from the property line) or a right to light proviso (you may not be able to plant a tall screening row of cedars if the subsequent blockage of the sun prevents your neighbour’s enjoyment of its rays or if it changes the nature of their garden planting). So far, in a very brief look at the issue, what I have found is that in many residential neighbourhood disputes, a judge will rule on the side of the person who would lose the light. In situations where mega developments are involved, the discussion can become quite lengthy and expensive, to the detriment of the homeowner who is often unable to hedge their bets. The next areas to discuss centre around the plants being used. Cultural considerations are common sense, will the plant grow at that site? A thought for the future, will the small tree planted in the hedgerow eventually cast too much shade for the hedging plant? Perhaps selecting something like alpine currant, Ribes alpinum, which works well in sun and shade will take that into account. Next, can you maintain the hedge within its designated space? If you want to have a solid cedar

Premier attends grand opening News - Colborne - Unlike her reception in Peterborough, Colborne had nothing but smiles and pizza for Premier Kathleen Wynne. Premier Wynne toured the new Ontario Agri-Food Venture Centre in Colborne on May 1, shortly after a visit in Peterborough where protesters gathered outside from union groups representing CUPE and OPSEU, along with No Casino Peterborough members and the Public Hydro Coalition. There was a police and security presence in Colborne but no protest. The premier gathered with officials including Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs Jeff Leal, and Northumberland-Quinte West MPP Lou Rinaldi for a tour and the grand opening celebration of the new 15,000-square-foot facility located on Industrial Drive, just south of Highway 401. The Ontario Agri-Food Venture Centre will be operated by Northumberland County as a not-for-profit small-batch food processing facility, offering services that include

wash, cut, quick chill, flash freeze, cold/frozen/dry storage, packaging, labeling, a fully equipped commercial kitchen, business incubation and a train-

ing facility. It is expected to be accessed by local farmers and food producers. The facility and equipment will be tested during May and

should be available for business in mid-June, said Dan Borowec, Northumberland County director of economic development. The centre is unique in Ontario and the facility was developed in response to findings from the Regional Local Food Business Retention and Expansion Project conducted in 2012. The premier praised the creativity of the initiative and said it would bring job growth. “It’s going to inspire foodies,� Wynne said. “I am so proud our government is able to support it.� A recipe incubator area in the building is expected to be very popular, Borowec said. Often it is not possible for small producers to access space and equipment needed to process and package food but the new facility will provide that opportunity, Wynne said. Tina Moorey, executive chef with On the Side Gourmet Catering, out of Warkworth, hopes to use the facility to make her own relishes and jams. “It [the centre] is fantastic,� Moorey said. “We are so lucky to have it here.�

Did you know that up to 90 percent of headaches actually come from how your teeth ďŹ t together?

All our adult teeth ďŹ rst come together during our teenage years. Unfortunately, teeth don’t always know how to come together properly. For the most part, they ďŹ t together enough so that you can chew and eat. However, only 10 percent of the population is lucky enough to have upper and lower teeth that ďŹ t well together like a puzzle. Most people are not that lucky and their teeth must go through some type of adaptation in order to chew. If you belong to this group, you may experience the following symptoms:

ful spring weather. The August festival will be very well attended however, judging from current ticket sales. Half of the campsite weekend tickets have already been sold according to Lisa Lesage, president of Tweed Music Festivals Inc. (TMI). This is the fifth anniversary of the successful Tribute to Elvis Festival and this year’s theme will be “Christmas in August” highlighting Elvis’ Christmas music. “Today we have dignitaries coming here, [MPP] Todd Smith will be here, Don DeGenova will be here from the municipality and the Legion president will be presenting us with a cheque as the Legion has been a sponsor for the past four years,” said Lesage. Elvis Tribute Artist (ETA) Stephen Goodberry provided live renditions of Elvis tunes

The 2015 Elvis Festival will feature three headliners rather than just one and about 30 ETAs. Live music will be provided on Saturday night and Sunday by the excellent Casino Brothers who played last year. Gord Hendricks, festival winner two years ago and last year’s headliner, will be playing a separate show in Tweed on August 1. A new element will be added this year in the form of a duck race down the Skootamatta River through the village at the end of June. The ducks, purchased for $2 each will be released at the Louisa Street Bridge and collected by festival volunteers in hip-waders and canoes farther downstream. The first place winner receives a barbecue and tools donated by Rashotte’s Hardware. “We’re hoping to have it as an annual event,” says Lesage. Tickets for the festival are selling fast, says Lesage, and can be obtained at Bush Furniture, Pinnacle Music Studios in Belleville and Chumleigh’s in Kingston, or may be purchased online at the Elvis Festival website.

Making parenthood a joy … not a burden is part of a larger network of services throughout Belleville, Picton and Quinte West supported in part by community fundraising. April 25 the Anchor hosted their spring fundraiser at Centre Hastings Secondary School with over 200 supporters sitting down to a full course dinner. On average the agency sees 25 new clients each year with at least 250 client connections in the greater Central Hastings area of Madoc, Marmora, Tweed, Stirling and Cloyne. Services include a post natal home visiting program and a hospitality program which delivers meals to new parents following delivery of their baby. At the centre parents can find various resources including maternity clothing, supplies and clothing for infants and attend a weekly session to discuss all aspects of parenting, and personal care. The dinner was an opportunity to introduce Darla Keene, a community education liaison who will be offering a community education program to students from Grades 7 to 11, based on prevention of early pregnancy. Keene’s mandate is to encourage an abstinence-based approach to prevention of unwanted pregnancy. The message, she said, is simple, “What do you visualize for Jen Couperus, chair of the Anchor of Hope cen- your future, and how would an unexpected tre in Madoc welcomed over 200 supporters to pregnancy affect that plan?” Keene said young women are often presthe annual fundraiser April 25, in support of the pregnancy and family care centre.

Lifestyles - Madoc - Raising a family is a challenge under the best of circumstances. An unexpected pregnancy late in life, or at a young age, can be stressful for anyone. The Anchor Of Hope Pregnancy and Family Care Centre in Madoc offers a support network for expectant parents, new parents and families. The outreach centre at 135 Elgin Street

and relationships started at an early age. “Knowing you have a full life ahead of you, and, you have freedom of choice to abstain from relations strengthens one’s resolve. A baby is a full-time job in itself. We want young folks to understand how that will affect their future.” A fathering program is also in the making. Program director Tara Flagler says community partnerships are welcomed to help create this needed service. “Fathers are an important

part of raising children. We are hoping to encourage their involvement.” The theme of the event was acceptance; recognizing that no matter where an individual has been, what they have done or the condition they find themselves in, we should embrace them, each is deserving of love and compassion. The Anchor of Hope is open Tuesday to Thursday or contact Darla Keene addressed over 200 supporters at the annual Anchor of Hope at <info@anchorofhope.ca>, charity benefit dinner in Madoc April 25.

News - Campbellford - Campbellford is one of the locations for a public meeting on poverty. On Wednesday, May 13, and Thursday, May 14, Northumberland County and United Way Northumberland are co-hosting a series of public, community-based meetings throughout the county to hear ideas that will help people leave poverty behind and realize their full potential. “We want to hear from people in Northumberland who have experienced poverty or who work with people who are struggling to make ends meet. It is important as

we plan that we truly understand the issues impacting our community members. This will help us develop solutions together,” said Mark Darroch, Director of Northumberland County’s Community and Social Services Department. “United Way Northumberland believes that working together is the best way of approaching poverty prevention and finding solutions to transition people out of poverty in our community. These public meetings will occur throughout the county and we encourage people to come prepared to share their thoughts, issues and concerns,”

says Lynda Kay, CEO of United Way Northumberland. “These moderated sessions will help us tackle poverty together.” The meetings will take place in Cobourg, Port Hope, Brighton and Campbellford.

Auto show sees huge weekend crowds By Richard Turtle

News - Stirling - There was plenty of trafďŹ c in the village last weekend as record crowds ocked to the fairgrounds for the annual Automotive and Antique Flea Market presented by the Stirling Agricultural Society. The two-day show and sale has consistently drawn thousands of visitors and car enthusiasts to the area, whether looking to buy or looking just to look, and last weekend was no exception. In fact, many of the organizers, vendors and visitors well acquainted with the show say crowds this year were bigger than ever. Organizers say with paid admissions reaching 4,200, attendance on opening day surpassed 5,000 and ideal weather conditions helped attract thousands more on Sunday. While numbers did create some parking challenges, particularly in the hours immediately after the gates opened Saturday at 7 a.m., Agricultural Society President Amanda Jeffs-Skinkle and other volunteers at the gate reported a steady ow of vehicles throughout the weekend and nothing but positive comments from visitors and vendors alike. “It’s been really good,â€? said JeffsSkinkle early Sunday afternoon, long after experiencing the heaviest trafďŹ c of the weekend the day before. Others nearby agreed, noting the weather over the course of the weekend was perhaps the best the show had seen and certainly helped boost the overall admissions. Many of those in attendance made a family day of it, often arriving with children and the dog in tow, and there was no shortage of interesting and unusual sights both inside and out. Warm temperatures and sunny skies offered ideal conditions for touring the fairgrounds where hundreds of vendors displayed thousands of automotive ac-
