News - Brighton - New Brighton Arts Council (BAC) president Terry Denyes is hoping the idea to form a citizens band strikes the right note with area musicians. The idea comes from a federal New Horizons grant received recently by the local arts organization. “It’s all about getting seniors involved and giving them something to do,� said Denyes. “We’ve been very successful with our workshops but we don’t have a band. All the other towns around us have nice bands that work well, why not here in Brighton?� “The focus is on seniors, but it is a community band,� he explained. “Hopefully, everyone will come out. There’ll be concerts and they’ll have to practise every day to get ready. That’s fully demanding in itself, keeping your musical instrument up. I’m hoping it’s a good idea.� To get the music playing, Denyes will serve as musical director for the new group and he’s got more than enough on his resume to qualify for the role. According to his biography, Denyes spent 33 years in the military music branch performing at all of the major concert venues in North America and many in Europe as a percussionist, soloist and singer. He has performed with a multitude of different groups ranging from symphony to rock and roll to jazz and country. His career highlight was singing the national anthem at the 2000 Grey Cup in Calgary with a tenpiece show band. After retiring from the military, he moved to Brighton to begin a new performance career in the Quinte area with the Commodores; one of Canada’s longest running big swing bands, and, more recently, the Bay City Band. Denyes started out when he was in high school and recalls playing drums with his father’s band at the age of 14. “They were sneaking me into the bars,� he said with a chuckle. “They’d put me in a corner and say, ‘shut up and don’t move.’� Please see “Big� on page 3

Denyes says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s looking for a big bandâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x153;30, 40, 50 people; flutes, oboes and horns,â&#x20AC;? and from the larger group, he sees some â&#x20AC;&#x153;natural spin-offs,â&#x20AC;? possibly including brass or woodwind quintets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We could have combos, show bands and little rock bands; whatever the people want to do,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But the big focus is getting enough musicians to keep a band going.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be fun,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m even looking at Christmas music because, who knows, we might be ready to put on a concert in December. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think there are a lot of places for us to play.

News - Brighton - At their regular meeting last week, municipal council approved a sidewalk reconstruction project in Brighton. Officially, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;removal, disposal and reconstruction of sidewalk in various locations,â&#x20AC;? the successful bid, from Kawartha Curb and Sidewalk Ltd., came in at about $16,000 under the $75,000 provided in the 2013 capital budget. Now, says public works director Andrew Drzewiecki, in his report, staff intends to increase the volume of removed and replaced sidewalk in order to utilize the full budget amount. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is good news for our citizens,â&#x20AC;? said Councillor Tom Rittwage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;During budget time, we went from an initial amount of $50,000 to $75,000 for sidewalks and, in particular, to take care of all the concerns the Accessibility Advisory Committee put forward. Now it looks like our $75,000 just turned into about $90,000.â&#x20AC;? In a recorded vote, council unanimously approved the project.

Monarchs and Migrants Weekend at Presquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ile News - Brighton - The migration season is now under way at Presquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ile and Monarchs and Migrants Weekend at the park celebrates this natural spectacle. Come and join us on the Labour Day Weekend to witness a spectacular scene repeated for millennia by migrating bird and monarch populations. The birds and butterďŹ&#x201A;ies are stopping at the Park to refuel on their long journeys to the south. Their destination? Mexico to the tip of South America, and points between. On August 31 and September 1, Presquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ile will offer bird banding demos, monarch tagging and informative guided walks and childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s programs. Expert butterďŹ&#x201A;y tagger Don
Davis will be available to help you understand migration theories and provide hands-on experiences in tagging and releasing monarch butterďŹ&#x201A;ies Saturday and Sunday from 1 to 3 p.m. at the Lighthouse Interpretive Centre. A birdbanding demo, weather dependent, will occur at Owen Point parking lot between 8 a.m. and noon both days. No telling what will show up there but this is your chance to get up close and personal with some of our feathered friends. There will also be guided walks looking for birds and butterďŹ&#x201A;ies on both days, as well as bird walks along the beach on Saturday at 4 p.m. and on Sunday at 10 a.m. and again at 4 p.m. A butterďŹ&#x201A;y
walk will go at 1 p.m. on Sunday and a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presentation at 10 a.m. on Saturday about monarchs rounds out the program. All events are free but regular park admission fees apply. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The miracle of migration is one of the great nature wonders of the world,â&#x20AC;? says Park Naturalist David Bree, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and Presquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ile is one of the great places in the world to experience some part of that miracle. I hope people take advantage of what the park offers this weekend and throughout the year to enjoy and learn about our natural world.â&#x20AC;?

New director of communications
News - Northumberland County - A new director of communications has been named to ďŹ ll a new position with Northumberland County. Kate Campbell, an Ottawa University grad in communications, began her new job with the County on August 6. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is my pleasure to join the County,â&#x20AC;? Ms. Campbell said during an August 14 County council meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still getting my bearings and settling in, but I look forward to working with all of you and the community.â&#x20AC;? The 31-year-old Peterborough native also attended Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s University where she studied public administration. Before accepting her new position with the County, Ms. Campbell was working in Toronto. In a later interview with Northumberland News, Ms. Campbell called her new job, â&#x20AC;&#x153;a great ďŹ tâ&#x20AC;? for her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I always knew I wanted to work in the government, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

I am happy to be back working in a small community.â&#x20AC;? Other highlights from the August 14 County council meeting, include: â&#x20AC;˘ In a move to help raise awareness of the emerald ash borer, council endorsed a proclamation from the Ontario Urban Forest Council. The emerald ash borer is a tiny Asian beetle that has killed millions of ash trees in Ontario and Quebec. Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s endorsement will be forwarded to Northumberland Quinte West MP, Rick Norlock and MPP Rob Milligan, and other associated Ontario ministries and agencies. â&#x20AC;˘ Council has awarded $158,522.95 to Meridian Planning Consultants to help develop an ofďŹ cial county plan. In total, seven companies submitted bids for the contract. The provincial government now requires every county to have an ofďŹ cial plan. â&#x20AC;˘ A section of County Road
30 will be paved after council awarded $415,000 to Coco Paving Inc. to pave a section of the road, from Guertin Road to 300 metres south of County Road 41. The County had budgeted $735,000 for the project and will use the remaining funds to extend the resurfacing a further 300 metres south and to install safety devices, such as guiderails. â&#x20AC;˘ Various roadsides throughout the county will be a little safer for motorists after council awarded $313,742.06 to Hughson Fencing and Guiderail to remove and install new roadside safety devices at various locations. Work is scheduled to begin right away. â&#x20AC;˘ Drain Bros. Excavating Ltd. has been awarded $111,069.14 by council to complete repair work in the Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forest parking lot. Repair and improvements in the lot, east of Woodlawn Road, off County Road 45, will include improving the deďŹ nition of parking spaces and provide horse trailer speciďŹ c parking with pull-through parking and horse tie-ups.

our wonderful bay and continue to Trenton and the new marina their mayor and council have obtained. However, ďŹ shing in the Bay of Quinte will continue to falter as the water quality becomes worse and the annual algae bloom takes its toll. Brighton is in a position to become, in a very short time, a major destination for ďŹ shing and other water activities which would go hand in hand with the draw of our outstanding Presquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ile Provincial Park. The waterfront upgrades would bring in much needed revenues to merchants, increase the value of fortunate home owners and awareness of this outstanding area. I recall making inquiry as to the whether the harbour in Cobourg was a money sink-hole or a cash cow. The Cobourg harbour brings in money, year after year, after year, after year.

Dear Editor, An article in the Globe & Mail hails the return of sport ďŹ shing in the Toronto Harbour. Tests show the water quality has improved immensely and pike, pickerel, bass and other ďŹ sh are proliferating. One point stood out and that was mention of â&#x20AC;&#x153;ďŹ sh furnitureâ&#x20AC;? near the Spadina pier. This write-up goes to bring to mind, again, Brightonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s failure to put even the slightest effort to improve the waterfront in Gosport. The report prepared by a citizens waterfront committee lies gathering dust somewhere in the town hall. That no effort has been made to secure funding to extend and develop parkland as well as expanding a protected harbour is a failure to secure the ďŹ nancial future of the township. Council has deemed it better to put money into increasing the industrial park along with the cost of sewer and water extensions in the highly optimistic hope of drawing taxpaying and employment producing businesses. That will continue to be one very hard sell. Compared to other nearby industrial parks Brightonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comes up short. The distance and the lack of a dedicated connection to the 401 system, an open railway crossing which sees in access of 80 trains per 24-hour period, a one access and egress road to the industrial area via Loyalist Road are all deal-breakers. Over the coming years we will see the increasing ďŹ&#x201A;ow of pleasure craft ignore

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Council is operating in an unprofessional manner we’re doing is wrapping up the project.” This is an incredible misrepresentation of the facts. Just prior to this meeting, Ian Douglas briefed him regarding the work the RCL team had undertaken, and what still remains to be done. He also emphasized that inclusion of all three team members on the new committee is essential to the success of this project. As well, he made it clear that we, the team would work with any members of council except Councillor Rittwage. As in phase one, our team has worked alone over the past months to develop a proposal, business plan and cost
“Wrapping up the project” Dear Editor Upon reading the above mentioned article in last week’s Independent, I feel compelled to share the following which I posted on the MyFM web site on August 15, 2013: “In the presentation made by Mr. Douglas, he requested that the three Legion members who were in Phase 1 of the project (Ian Douglas, Dave Wyndham, Ken Birch) be allowed to continue on as part of the Committee for Phase 2. Council, in their infinite wisdom, chose not to grant the request and limited the Legion participation to just one member. In my opinion, at the very least, this is an insult to Mr. Douglas and his colleagues. I doubt very much that we would have such a beautiful memorial in our park without the hard work and dedication of this trio. It defies reason as to why this simple request would not be granted. Our municipality is blessed to have residents that have the expertise, skill set and willingness to get the job done and this pettiness is beyond belief! …” I cannot fathom why the four council members (and of course we know who the four are) would deny the request made by Mr. Douglas.
Like most volunteers, these three dedicated Legion members volunteer their time and expertise … aha, perhaps that is the issue, they have experience and expertise! It is Deputy-mayor Kerr’s opinion that Phase 2 is “… wrapping up the project. We’re really reviewing the work the Legion committee members have done to find out how it can be accommodated …” Is it really as simple as that? I doubt it. This phase of the project is in keeping with contractual obligation that the municipality has with Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) and promises made to residents regarding artefacts taken from the old cenotaph. Perhaps the Legion representatives should take their experience and expertise and place it where it will be respected and used for all the right reasons! Brighton is the subject of much ridicule throughout Northumberland County, and beyond, and this is yet another example of the petty and small-minded nonsense that takes place at council … disgusting!

analysis, as well as opened discussions with VAC for a matching funds grant. We were prepared to share this with council and municipal staff so that they could complete their bureaucratic responsibilities (tendering, etc.) To this point, no members of council or staff have been involved. Can council or staff “wrap up” a project about which they know nothing? Ian Douglas had previously pointed out to council that our agreement regarding the Legion team’s representation on any committee has been violated. He was then called to a private meeting
of Kerr, Councillor Vandertoorn, and CAO Gail Frost. This group proposed that, if Ian agreed to the council’s ad hoc committee makeup, Councillor Rittwage would not attend if we held meetings during the day, since it would conflict with his employment hours. This sort of subterfuge is appalling and unacceptable. We sent a formal letter to council, requesting a change of ad hoc committee membership to include the three-person Legion team as originally agreed upon, at which time we will resume work. We really do not care how many members of
Dear Editor, We found the recent statements concerning the need for transparency regarding the contract of CAO Gayle Frost refreshing but ironic considering our experience with the town on planning and development issues. We refer to our experience concerning the development directly below our property on Young Street in Brighton. Our experience and involvement with this development date to 2006 when our first notification of the pending development was the sound of survey stakes being pounded in to mark the 12-foot-wide access easement, bordering our property. This easement was to be the sole access for four homes. Persistent communication and follow-up resulted in a meeting at the town offices in which our concerns considering the viability and safety of this access plan and the need to access this property from George Street were voiced but declined based on a previous town approval in 1989. Further communication
with the planning department in 2008 resulted in the same response. The development proceeded and the initial duplex consisting of two homes constructed. Fast-forward to March 2013. The duplex (now a rental property) and the balance of the excavation below our property remained unfinished and unoccupied. Via a rumour we learned that discussions were under way with the town to complete a second duplex structure for a total of four homes accessed by the easement. Communications with the planning department resulted in no meeting and no confirmation of what was transpiring was provided. During June, again via a rumour, we learned that contracts were being awarded for pending construction on the site. Our further inquiry to the town was noted by a member of council who recalled our request in March and a meeting was quickly arranged with the planning department and the developer. Our appeal for any further development to be accessed from George Street was

again declined unless requested for consideration by the developer. The developer was now not interested in reopening the planning process and would proceed as soon as “the ink was dry on the building permit.” The building permit was in fact pending, and he indeed started immediately. We can only guess what the response could have been if we had learned of the planning earlier. Following the meeting in July, we concluded that if we are to accept the impact of this development despite all our efforts, based on the plan approved in 1989, we should at least have a copy of the original plan. Our request has again resulted in silence despite the involvement of a council member. It appears that there are “privacy issues.” Privacy issues? Are not development plans once approved, public record and transparent? We guess not in Brighton. Rick and Janice Daniels, Jaye Maclaughlin Brighton

Dear Editor, The article in last week’s Independent reporting the status of the second phase construction in Memorial Park, although including the essence of Ian Douglas’ short project report, fails to address critical concerns. By way of background, Deputy-mayor Kerr approached the Legion phase one team some months ago, asking us to undertake this second phase, otherwise it would “not be done.” At the council meeting and in response to a question, Kerr stated that, “I think the situation is a little bit different this time around … What

OPINION Syrian dilemma
Editorial - A dilemma is by its very nature a choice between evils, and that is what now faces other countries over the use of poison gas in Syria. All the options may be “on the table,” but none of them are good. Nobody denies that poison gas was used in rebel-held parts of Damascus on August 21, not even the Syrian government. Medecins Sans Frontieres says 3,600 patients with symptoms of poisoning were treated at three Gwynne Dyer hospitals it supports in Damascus after the attack, and that at least 355 of them died. The real total may be as high as 1,000 dead. That’s a whole week’s normal death toll in the Syrian civil war in just one day. After that, however, we run out of facts. The rebels claim the Baathist regime was responsible, while the Syrian government says the rebels did it themselves in the hope of triggering foreign military intervention. Sending United Nations inspectors will not settle that argument: if nerve gas was actually used, it must have come from government stocks, but that doesn’t mean the regime did it. Everybody knows the Syrian military have stocks of poison gas, but what’s happening in Syria is a civil war. The rebels have not overrun any of the known storage sites for Syrian chemical weapons, but they could have secret supporters inside those sites who smuggled some out to them. If you apply the old test of “who benefits?”, the rebels, who are currently losing ground, have a strong incentive to get the Assad regime blamed for using illegal weapons. If that gets the United States and other Western powers to impose a no-fly zone, or bomb the regime’s military bases, it helps the rebel cause. So maybe they acted to provide the necessary “evidence”: some of them are certainly ruthless enough. It’s easier to imagine the regime using chemical weapons: it’s just as ruthless, and it actually owns them. But it is manifestly not to its advantage to do so. President Bashar al-Assad’s troops are winning the war without them, and the last thing he needs is foreign military intervention. Using chemical weapons could lead to just such an outcome, and it would be exceptionally stupid for the regime to do so. On the other hand, armies and regimes have done exceptionally stupid things in the past, particularly when they are isolated and under great pressure. The emerging consensus among Western governments, at any rate, is that

Assad was responsible. So what to do about it? France has already called for the use of force, and the United States and Britain seem to be teetering on the brink: after a 40-minute phone call last Saturday President Barack Obama and Prime Minister David Cameron agreed that “a significant use of chemical weapons would merit a serious response.” But that is about the least they could say, in the circumstances. Earlier in the week, Obama warned publicly that people who “call for immediate action, jumping into stuff that does not turn out well, gets us mired in very difficult situations, [and] can … actually breed more resentment in the region.” If you liked America’s wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, he is saying, you’ll just love the one in Syria—and he knows the American public is not up for it. U.S. military intervention is unlikely to lead to the outcome American foreign policy really desires: the preservation of Syria’s existing secular state, with a change of leadership at the top. If Assad is overthrown, he’ll probably pull the whole edifice down with him. If the rebels win, it’s almost certainly the Islamist radicals who will take over. So if a military intervention is practically bound to end in tears, then why not just skip it? Because chemical weapons are classed as “weapons of mass destruction,” and there is an international treaty banning their use. If you let Assad get away with this, goes the argument, he will have breached an important international taboo on the use of WMD. Well, not really. Biological weapons (“germ warfare”) are truly horrifying weapons of mass destruction, banned by treaty, and nobody has ever used them. Nuclear weapons can kill by the billions; they have never been banned, but they haven’t been used in war for 68 years now. Poison gas, however, is not really a weapon of mass destruction at all. When gas was used in World War I, it was always about capturing the next line of trenches. After that war it was banned, but it has been used a few times since: Italy used gas in Ethiopia in 1935; Japan used it against China in 1938; Yemen used it against rebels in the 1960s; and Iraq used it against Iran and Kurdish rebels in the 1980s. In no case did the casualties reach “mass destruction” levels. Napalm, fuel-air explosives and cluster bombs are just as nasty as poison gas, and perfectly legal. The historic ban on poison gas is a valuable deterrent, but it has survived some previous breaches, and preventing this one is not worth a war. Especially if it is, from the point of view of the potential interveners, an unwinnable war.

By Lewis Zandbergen Editorial - No, I’m not speaking of cloth or the wonderful heritage we Canadians have in textiles and the beautiful things created by those who work with textiles. Although, as a person married to an incurable textile collector, quilter and creator of wondrous coverlets and warm quilts, I have to confess my sincere admiration for the amount of simple handwork our pioneer forebears put into their craft. However, I’m speaking of the vast wealth of history we have right in our own backyards, our collective cultural tapestry woven throughout with the trials and tribulations of our ancestors as they arrived, journeyed to their respective lots, cleared the land and built homes and communities. I know that strictly speaking Canada is only 146 years old, a youngster when it comes to world nations, but we’ve been a nation at heart since those first settlers hacked their way through our forests and began clearing farms and setting up mills. One of the great pleasures Denise and I share is visiting historic sites and one of our new favourites, O’Hara Mill Homestead, is within an easy drive from home; we’ve been there a couple of times this past summer. We’ve taken the grandchildren there and even though they’re a little young to really appreciate the hard lives of our ancestors, they delight in running around the village much as children did a century and a-half ago. We visited O’Hara Mill Homestead on a couple of special days recently and we’re very impressed. The last time I visited O’Hara Mill was about 25 or 30 years ago. At that time it consisted of the house, the mill and a ramshackle building housing a few farm implements in similarly rough shape; there were a few other outbuildings. It was a far cry from the delightful scene greeting the visitor these days. From the Mill Road parking area, a trail and a pretty little bridge take you to the covered dam and spillway. The dam and spillway are brand new having been finished only within the last year or two; pond water is again flowing over the wheel and powering the machinery which turns tree trunks into boards and beams. The sight of a saw slowly chewing through a log, leaving behind a board which with a bit of planing and sanding could make a heritage home project really special, is an attraction few visitors pass up. It reminds me of that old PBS show, The Woodwright’s Shop; Roy Underhill would be right at home here. Walking onto the gently rolling acres of grass, one is immediately struck by the totally believable sight. It isn’t
hard to imagine life in the 1850s when O’Hara Mill was producing lumber for the various farm homes around the area. Once you’ve watched that plank being cut from a tree trunk, you can mosey on over to the “new” log cabin which serves to illustrate the way the O’Hara family would have lived when they first arrived in the mid-1800s. This is a more recent addition to this idyllic spot. However, the way of life for the family back in the 1850s was anything but idyllic. From sunup to sundown, there was always plenty of work to do. I could go on about the multitude of pioneering crafts being shown the public on these special days but you’ll want to take it all in for yourself some day. A recent exhibit revealed just how much the O’Hara volunteers put into their translation of our past; they actually live it. Restoration of the vintage stone puller was begun in late 2011 and it’s taken a few years to rebuild the almost medieval looking machine. The final addition was perfected on the Heritage Day event this past summer, and it was a sight to behold; it provided insight to not only pioneer farming but also demonstrated the art of the wheelwright. On the ground, a steel rim was surrounded by firewood, the wood was lit to heat the metal and the wheelwright checked many, many times to make sure all was right before the piece was lifted and placed around a wooden spoked wheel prepared beforehand. Then copious amounts of water quickly shrank the steel, locking it to the wooden wheel. Once that exercise had been completed, it was time to install the wheel and show just what this machine was capable of. Hooks were inserted into holes chipped into the huge boulder under the puller. A team of Belgians didn’t even break a sweat as they pulled the stone up off the ground, then moved it a short way, showing what the pioneers had to do just to clear land for crops. If you’ve ever marvelled at the boulder “fences” which delineate farm fields in the area, you’d appreciate this engineering feat. Each of those boulders had to have “hook holes” chiseled into them before the puller could be brought in to remove the rock; then it was hauled to the side of the field. It probably took a couple of men and horses about fifteen to twenty minutes to move one boulder. That those hardy souls would spend hour after hour clearing fields this way is worthy of our admiration. And in a similar show of determination it is admirable how a diverse team of hardworking dedicated volunteers has accomplished so much in the name of history. My hat’s off to them.

Brighton Figure Skating Club putting fun on the ice for decades By Ray Yurkowski
News - Brighton - For more than four decades the Brighton and District Figure Skating Club has operated as a not-for-proďŹ t organization providing skaters of all ages the opportunity to learn a new skill, encourage a sense of community while promoting physical exercise in a fun and safe environment. The club has a history of keep-
ing registration affordable. For $200, BDFSC offers skaters 40 minutes of ice time twice a week from October through March. As well, adult skating classes ($140) are back this season. But, says club secretary Tiffeny Dyck, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never turned away a child because they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford it. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go out and get a sponsorship for them. There are programs out there and we have
no problem doing the paperwork.â&#x20AC;? The local club stands as the one of the few remaining community-based recreational organizations still operating in the entire country. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The last time I checked, about two years ago, there were only three recreational clubs left in Canada,â&#x20AC;? says club pastpresident Donna Cronin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
Community events displayed News - Trenton - Quinte West Mayor John Williams joined municipal staff and members of the Trenton Kinsmen Club last week to ofďŹ cially announce a new digital community events sign on Dixon Drive. In early spring, the Economic Development and Revitalization Committee
613.438.5882 Toll Free-1.855.876.6584
brought the idea to municipal council for their approval. The original sign, in use for at least 25 years, was constructed by the Kinsmen Club and sold to the municipality for one dollar, with the proviso it would be used to advertise community events. The new sign comes with a price tag of about $60,000 but $10,000 of that was offset by

a donation from the local club. The idea received a unanimous thumbs-up when the proposal was considered by the club membership. Plans include a installing a ďŹ&#x201A;owerbed around the base of the structure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This sign marks the completion of another step in the aggressive and multifaceted approach to marketing the City of Quinte West,â&#x20AC;? said Williams in a press release. There is no charge for not-for-proďŹ t groups to advertise on the sign and new announcements can be entered using a computer from a remote location.

Val Simpson and her daughter have been part of the club for six years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She has learned a lot and she loves it,â&#x20AC;? says Val. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not competitive. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s here to have a good time and help the younger skaters learn.â&#x20AC;? But for Dyck, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about discovering the joy of one of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest and most popu-
lar recreational activities â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not all Wayne Gretzky right?â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes kids just want to skate.â&#x20AC;? The Canadian passion for ice skating dates to the 1700s says the Canadian Museum of Civilization web site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The ďŹ rst immigrants arriving from Europe brought skates in their luggage,â&#x20AC;? they note. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Skating was so popular, in fact, that on December 24, 1748, Intendant Bigot issued an ordinance forbidding people to skate on the streets of Quebec.â&#x20AC;? This year, long-time minor
hockey executive Jake DeGroot takes over at the helm of the organization in an administrative role. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thank God for our coaches,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If it was left up to me, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d throw a puck out on the ice and let the skaters chase it.â&#x20AC;? Registration for the coming season is slated from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on September 14 and from 6 to 8 p.m. on September 18. But skaters can also sign up by calling club treasurer Val Simpson at 613-475-3368 or by email at <BDFSC@hotmail. com>.

Community pitches in to help in outreach program By Ross Lees
of her car full of materials she is getting ready to send over to help those same Afghani families through an Outreach program, thanks to a tremendous response from local dentist offices and stores like Shopper’s Drug Mart in Trenton, where Kristal works. She first went to two dental offices: Mike the Molar and Dr. Younes’ office. Dr. Younes, after finding out what she was looking for, immediately donated 200 things like tooth brushes, floss, etc. Mike the Molar did the same but then later com-
mitted to donate whatever they needed in the future. Muhamed Junaid, Kristal’s boss, and the owner of Shopper’s Drug Mart in Trenton, also donated whatever materials she requested and two other women, Cheryl and Shannon, donated diapers and wipes from the time they worked at the store. Two other stores, Metro and Giant Tiger, also pitched in when Kristal visited them. Metro donated diapers and Giant Tiger donated colouring books and crayons.
Kristal has been overwhelmed by the response. “I just have to help people when I hear there is a need,” she said, “so I just took it upon myself to do it. She admits this is the first time she has done something like this, although she says she is known for being friendly and outgoing at the store. She also volunteers to drive elderly people around. She has been impressed with the response from people. “Most people didn’t even think about
it,” she noted. “they just asked what we were looking for and responded.” It takes four to five weeks to ship the donations from Canada to Afghanistan, according to Kristal, so she hopes to ship at least one more shipment prior to Christmas. She can be contacted by calling her at home at 613-392-9981 or at the store at 613-392-1212 and ask for Kristal. Kristal’s husband Bob was impressed with her response and that of the community. “I’m just overwhelmed,” he said. R0012151161
News - Trenton - Kristal Mellin just had to hear there was a need in Afghanistan and she went right to work. Kristal heard about the situation from her husband PO2 Bob Mellin, now stationed in Kabul, Afghanistan. PO2 Mellin was volunteering in Afghanistan at a local kids hospital to get his mind off the dayto-day events in Kabul and he mentioned to Kristal that Afghanistan families were critically in need of hygiene products.

Derby is more than just kids, lines and worms By Ray Yurkowski
News - Trenton - It turns out the free kids fishing derby offered last weekend at O.G. Buster Alyea Park, was just one small piece of a much bigger event as Quinte West played host to the 2013 Ontario B.A.S.S. Nation provincial qualifier. “The premise for this is, there is a whole bunch of fishing clubs in Ontario that are run under the umbrella of B.A.S.S. [Bass Anglers Sportsman Society],” said Reno Viola, who served as emcee for the two-day professional fishing tournament. “It’s a significant event. Once a year, the members of all of the clubs battle against each other to pick a champion to compete in New York.”
The weekend event was presented in three parts. On Friday, military personnel from CFB Trenton took to the water along with Ontario Bass Nation members to try their hand at the sport alongside a troll-angler competition and a junior championship featuring 27 members from across southern Ontario. On Saturday, about 50 kids signed up for the free fishing event while 200 pros vied for top honours, as the twoday Hank Gibson tournament cast off. On Sunday, the pro tournament ended and the top 12, based on their combined weight over the two-day competition, will become Team Ontario and qualify to compete in New York State in 2014.
“The champion at that tournament will move on and compete in the Bassmaster Classic, which is the Super Bowl of fishing,” explained Viola. “It’s a big, big deal.” The economics of the sport is staggering. “What laymen don’t understand is, fishing in Canada is an 8.3 billion dollar industry,” said Viola. “When we move into a town like Quinte West, the positive economic impact is about $200,000 over the course of a weekend. These guys are here for four, five, up to ten days practising.” He points out how that multi-billion-dollar figure represents anglers’ expenditures in 2010. Its three-and-a-half times the economic contribution of the Winter Olympics at Vancouver or almost one-and-a-half times of the total franchise sales for Tim Hortons. More Canadian adults fish than play golf and hockey combined. As testament to the popularity of the sport, Viola operates the WRVO Radio Network, broadcasting all fishing all the time that can be heard online and on smartphones worldwide. Live shows were aired from a fishing boat parked at the site. Log on to <www.wrvoradio.com> or download Local kids line the pier adjacent to O.G.

ber 6, 2013, with the fourth annual Military Tattoo. Military bands are coming in from across Canada and a performance by Poor Angus follows in the licensed Festival Tent. Tickets for this event are $10 and gates open at 6 p.m., with the Tattoo starting at 7 p.m. On Saturday, September 7, the festival gets into full swing with the customary parade through downtown Trenton followed by the massed bands and a full day of great pipe bands, entertainment, dancers, heavy events competition, and a fantastic display of Celtic food and fare exhibitors, Celtic Heritage Centre, various demonstrations and live evening entertainment from the Salty Dogs and Steele City Rovers. Each year the Trenton Scottish Irish Festival sees in excess of 8,000 attendees, drawing many from outside the region, and even from across the country. The committee works hard to put on an exciting festival every year, and continues to grow it by adding new activities and initiatives. The Heavy Events Competition is a favourite at the festival and always draws a crowd, but there is some-
thing extra special happening at the 23rd annual Trenton Scottish Irish Festival. “This year after the opening ceremonies,” says Beth Cleaton, festival chair, “‘Legend’ Kevin Fast will make an attempt at his 19th Guinness World Record!” Fast will be attempting to throw as many cabers as possible in three minutes. The current record is seven. “We’ve also introduced a new activity this year,” says Colleen Vickers, Special Events Co-ordinator, City of Quinte West. Author and cricket player Tom Melville will be at the festival on Saturday afternoon offering cricket demonstrations and short informal games for the public to try. Cricket is one of the most loved summer games of the Scottish people. “We encourage people to come out and try this classic Scottish game,” adds Vickers. As always, the 23rd annual Trenton Scottish Irish Festival will be an exciting, fun-filled event for the whole family to enjoy.

Festival welcomes heavy weight athletes News - Trenton - The sport of heavy events enjoys a long and time-honoured tradition in Scottish history. The great strength athletes of the past have not been forgotten. A legendary strength athlete will have a career of above average length with some significant accomplishments in the form of individual statistics or championships. Performing well over an extended period is the litmus test to earn the “legendary” tag. The Trenton Scottish Irish Festival will host the largest number of professional and amateur heavy event competitors this year at the 23rd annual festival. Teams of both pros and amateurs will compete together this year for the top spot. Those entering this year’s competition are the Reverend Kevin Fast, George Chiappa, Warren Trask, Jacob Fast, Padraic Moore and Jason Baines, plus many more! The ladies are not left out as we have Heidi Lowry, Heather Boundy and Lucy Trojanowski to name just a few! Dan Markovic will be returning as the field judge. World record holder Kevin Fast will attempt his 19th Guinness World Record during the opening ceremonies. Kevin will try to throw as many cabers as possible in three minutes. Each caber is
a minimum of 19 feet with a weight of over 100 pounds. The record currently sits at seven in the three-minute time frame. Come out and cheer the Master World Record holder on Saturday, September 7. Another competitor who got his start at the festival two years ago is Padraic Moore from Prince Edward County. He came to the festival in 2011 and asked if he could try his hand at competing. The rest, as they say, is history. Padraic is now one of the top amateurs in Ontario. He has won three major competitions this year already and placed in the top three in many others. TSIF is proud that we were able to give Padraic his start in the heavy events competitions. Collectively, these athletes taking the field of battle have provided Highland Games’ fans thousands of hours of excitement, joy, stress, heartbreak, enjoyment and most of all, pride for many, many years. These sports heroes and their accomplishments have become firmly entrenched in our memories as they take their place in history as sports legends. Come out and watch these athletes compete. Events start at 9 a.m. at Centennial Park, Trenton, Saturday, September 7.

he hooked up with two mates, Jaime Nudd, 25, and E.J. Steedle, 22. Nudd says she learned about the journey when Greer posted an ad on Craigâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s List. Steedle was working at a marina when Greer pulled in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I fell in love with the boat and the mission and the characters on board,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This boat is 100 per cent solar powered,â&#x20AC;? Steedle added as he talked with awe about the specs of the 48-foot-long and 22foot-wide tri-hull. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She has withstood two hurricanes on Lake Ontario,â&#x20AC;? he said, while standing on the edge of one of the hulls, next to the solar panels. There are 15 240-watt panels altogether which feed two banks of batteries. The boat, which weighs 5,200 pounds and sleeps six, can do about 35 miles a day, 46 if the wind and current are favourable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are setting a Guinness world record for being completely solar panelled, no backups, no generators. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even

complimentary of the event,â&#x20AC;? Bochnek said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That makes all the hard work really worthwhile, and of course it benefits the hospital and the newborn babies in the maternal child program.â&#x20AC;? The inaugural BGHA golf tournament began as a celebration of the BGHAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 70th anniversary, which took place in 2008. Proceeds from the first few tournaments helped fund educational grants provided to hospital staff looking to improve their skills, and by last year had raised over $90,000 for the creation of an investment fund in perpetuity for that purpose. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year, after last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s investment, we asked the hospital what, if anything we could do to help,â&#x20AC;? Bochnek said. The BGHA formed in 1938, and operate hospital volunteer services, operate revenue generating businesses within the hospital and hold a number of special events each year in support of the BGH, and today numbers roughly 300 volunteers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We get great support from hospital staff and the community â&#x20AC;Ś and our major sponsors and donors are very generous,â&#x20AC;? Bochnek said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very gratifying [to see so many people come out to the tournament]
Annual tournament raises funds for BGH
News - Belleville - Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been 75 years since the Belleville General Hospital Auxiliary (BGHA) first formed to help support patients, visitors and staff, and all these years later the organization is still making their mark on the community, most recently with the sixth running of the BGHA Golf Tournament at Trillium Wood on Wednesday, August 21. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It went very well; weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very pleased with it. In light of all the competition for golf tournaments and in particular for fund raising, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an easy thing to come out with a really successful event,â&#x20AC;? said BGHA special events co-ordinator Selma Bochnek. One hundred golfers took part in the event this year, which raised money for the latest BGHA fund-raising goal of $100,000 for the Materna Child Program at BGH. The funds will be used to update equipment and improve space in the Special Care Nursery and Care By Parent Room, facilities meant to provide quiet, nurturing environments in support of newborns with more complex needs at BGH. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of [the golfers] were very very

VANDYK communities was pleased to host a BBQ in Cobourg to proudly celebrate the ofďŹ cial opening of Milestone Park in West Park Village. Residents, purchasers, pre-registrants, Town of Cobourg Council and Staff as well as VANDYK staff, gathered at the park on August 15, 2013 to commemorate this event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Throughout the years that we have been building in West Park Village, we have seen it transform from a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;subdivisionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to a real â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;community.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; In the meantime, we have not only built homes, but forged lasting relationships with the community. Each achievement and accomplishment in partnership with the Town has been memorable and therefore decided the name Milestone Park would be ďŹ ttingâ&#x20AC;? said Mark De Souza, VP of Planning and Development at VANDYK group of companies. The event had a great turn out and was well received as it gave residents a chance to mingle with neighbours and meet those who have yet to move into their new West Park Village home. Since opening over seven years ago, West Park Village has received a wealth of interest and support due to VANDYK communities making home ownership easy with affordable price points, beautiful designs and functional layouts. With a range of product types available including bungalow townhomes, attached singles and detached homes, buyers have gravitated to this master planned community offering small town charm and a relaxed lifestyle with big city amenities.

Thousands expected at Quinte Exhibition this weekend
News - Belleville - One of the oldest and largest events in the city of Belleville is making its return this weekend, and with sunny skies in the forecast Belleville Agricultural Society first vice-president Mitch Panciuk said he’s looking forward to another successful Quinte Exhibition in 2013. “There’s something for everybody … old, young, new to the community, and people who have been to the event many many times,” Panciuk said. Kicking off today, August 29, at the Quinte Exhibition and Raceway on Sidney Street in Belleville, the 192nd edition of the Quinte Exhibition stretches out over four days, wrapping up on Sunday, September 1, with the second running of the Exhibition’s annual demolition derby. As the event’s roots lie in the agricultural realm, many of the activities and events this year will have a certain agricultural flair from livestock shows to horse and tractor pulls, all in aid of creating the best Exhibition possible. “It’s kind of a big responsibility to live up to what everyone has done for so many years,” Panciuk said. “You want to make sure you do justice to the organization and the event, and make sure it stays fresh and relative to people’s lives, and I think we’re doing that.” Each of the days of the Exhibition has a wide range of events and activi-

ties, however, each day also has a “main event” attraction that’s sure to pique the interests of festival-goers. Tonight, (August 29) the opening of the popular Midway at 4 p.m. complements the heavy truck and tractor pull beginning at 6 p.m., featuring roughly a dozen different classes of vehicles. On Friday, the annual free seniors tea takes place from 2 to 4 p.m. near the grandstand, while at 7:30 p.m. the focus shifts to the first of two runnings of the demolition derby. Saturday features a number of free kids activities throughout the day, and live music later on in the evening is headlined by Kix Brooks performing at
9 p.m. On Sunday the agricultural feel takes centre stage with horse and livestock shows, before concluding with the demolition derby beginning at 7:30 p.m. All of these events contribute to an expected 30,000 to 40,000 people attending the Exhibition this year, making it one of the city’s biggest events. “It’s the largest annual activity of the year for our city,” Panciuk said. “I think we’ll be above that 40,000 [attendance] figure, which is where we were last year.” For more information on the Exhibition, including a full schedule of events, visit the web site at <www.qer.ca>.

New “Good Food Bag” offers residents locally grown produce “By ordering a box or bag, you are supporting local farmers, helping your family eat better, and getting some excellent fresh produce at an affordable price,” she added. The Good Food Box program has been operating in Northumberland County for several years. It is a not-for-profit initiative of The Salvation Army, the United Way of Northumberland, the County of Northumberland, the Ontario Early Years Centre,
By Sue Dickens
News - Campbellford - Reaching out to smaller households, organizers of the Good Food Box program have introduced a new “Good Food Bag” designed to offer the same assorted fruits and vegetables that are available in the boxes, only now they are available in a smaller size. Harvest time is almost here and enjoying fresh, locally grown produce is now even easier, especially in smaller portion sizes. The Good Food Bag costs a bit less than the box at $10 each month, although no subsidy is available for it. “We know that in smaller households of one or two people, a box full of fruits and vegetables may seem overwhelming to eat,” said Ursula Silk, co-ordinator of the local Good Food Box program. “With the new Good Food Bag, people can still enjoy the taste of locally grown produce, but in a more manageable quantity,” she added. In a press release The Salvation Army reminds residents that the popular Good Food Box program continues to be available throughout Northumberland County. Each month people can order a Good Food Box that is filled with assorted fruits and vegetables that are in season. When possible, locally grown produce is included in each box. The boxes are delivered to pickup points in local communities, including Alderville, Bewdley, Brighton, Campbellford, Cobourg, Colborne, Grafton, Harwood, Hastings, Port Hope and Warkworth. A Good Food Box costs $15 each, although there is a $5 subsidy available from the county for some families with children. “There is no better way to deliver farm freshness to your home than through the Good Food Box program,” said Silk.
Community Care Northumberland, Port Hope Community Health Centre, and the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit. For more information or to order a Good Food Box, call The Salvation Army at 905-373-9440 or toll-free at 1-866-865-0768. Local farmers who want to sell their produce through the Good Food Box are also encouraged to contact the program.

lors Pat Culhane, Egerton Boyce and Tom Lafferty and he said it was an honour and a unanimous decision by council to declare August 24 Pride Day in Belleville. “This is a great day for acceptance and the sun is always shinning on days like today,” Mayor Ellis said. For 15 year-old Zoee Bagn it was wonderful to take part in Saturday’s festivities and to see both members of the LBGT community and others come together in a spirit of harmony. There are still challenges out there, she said, but the key is to rise above it and be proud of who you are and she has found the level of recognition is growing every day. “We are coming together more and realizing that everybody is different in their own way,” she said, adding greater acceptance and understanding can only create a better community for everyone.

rallying point at Empire Square where enthusiastic participants were decked out in technicolour brilliance. Mr. Hargreaves said everyone involved has been completely overwhelmed with the outpouring of support they have received from the community. “The city of Belleville, their council and the police department have all been just awesome,” he said, adding he would also like a very special thank you to go out to all the event’s sponsors because without them the parade and Pride in the Park wouldn’t be possible. Mr. Hargreaves went on to say this year was particularly special because for the first time the event was officially proclaimed by Mayor Neil Ellis and Belleville City Council, at their August 12 meeting, and they were honoured to have the mayor kick off the parade. There has been a lot of positive changes taking place in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community, he said, and now more than ever young and old alike are seeing a level of acceptance they haven’t seen before; Pride in the Park co-organizer Eric Hargreaves announces the beginning of that’s what makes an event like Pride in the first official Belleville Pride Day Parade at Empire Square August 24. the Park a true celebration.

Hospital celebrates 60th anniversary By Sue Dickens
News - Campbellford - Sixty years of health care was celebrated at Campbellford Memorial Hospital last week with tours, special displays, speeches by dignitaries and, of course, cake. From the bright lights of the operating room to the emergency room, the hospital offered tours to those interested in finding out more about their local health care facility on what was a special day
of celebration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My father [Wilfred Spencer] was a contractor that built the original hospital,â&#x20AC;? said Pat Lounsbury who was there with her husband Gary, a past chair of the board of directors at the Peterborough Regional Health Centre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to see the original building and how it is being used today,â&#x20AC;? said Gary Lounsbury. Together they toured the many departments of the hospital here in
Campbellford having just left the operating room heading to the scope room where anesthetist Dr. Glenn Gibson demonstrated their use. Heather Milne, RN, and coordinator of the OR was helping with the tours as well, while dressed in a uniform reminiscent of decades past. Dr. Gibson, who has been at the hospital for 21 years, pointed out, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was Heatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s idea to put price tags on the equipment
so when we hear people say we need this or we need that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the price tag it will cost.â&#x20AC;? Downstairs in the boardroom several displays were set up one of which illustrated the cost of equipment. For example a patient monitor was tagged at $24,000, a warming cabinet at $85,000 and a digital mammography unit tagged at $700,000. Diana Tushingham, president of the Bemersyde Chap-
Q: What if I need to get out of my mortgage early? A: Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impossible to plan for many of the things that will happen in our lives, like job loss, illness, divorce, relocation, or another personal matter. To break your mortgage, you can expect to pay a prepayment penalty: the greater of either a) three monthsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; interest, or b) the interest-rate differential (IRD). With the IRD, your mortgage lender will want you to pay the equivalent of what they will lose by releasing you from your mortgage and lending the money at current rates. Not all lenders calculate IRD the same way, and the differences can amount to thousands of dollars. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let anyone tell you prepayment penalties are â&#x20AC;&#x153;all the sameâ&#x20AC;?. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not. If you ever need to pay your mortgage out early, the right mortgage could save you thousands! What to learn more? Give us a call!
QUESTION: Connie, my wife and I are planning a 3 week trip away. We do not wish to bother anyone with filling our feeders so wondered if it would be harmful to the birds to let them go empty. ANSWER: No problem! Years ago it was widely thought that once you start to feed the birds you could not stop. As a result of the ever increasing interest in bird watching over the last many years, ornithologists have conducted many studies on various aspects of bird life and behaviour, nesting patterns, migration, etc. One of their findings concluded that birds get less than 20% of their food from feeders. They visit various feeders and food sources in a day. If a feeder is empty, after a few days they will simply bypass that feeder. When the feeder is filled again, it usually takes a few days for the birds to return.

Q: How do I price%$"!"#'!" " my house for sale? ! ''!& !'&"&
A: Many people erroneously believe that they need to start with an artificially high price in order to have negotiating room. A price that starts off more in line with what the house will likely sell for, on the other hand, immediately makes the property stand out against its competition; it looks like a better deal, which attracts qualified buyers.

The price at which comparable houses have recently sold indicates the market value of your property (what it will likely sell for), whereas the houses that are currently on the market represent your competition. Positioning your house competitively right from the start (particularly in a Buyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s market such as ours), can make it a more attractive option than the competition. Keep in mind that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to substantially negotiate down your price when it is already well positioned!

Stewart, board chair, addressing the crowd gathered outside for the celebration ceremony. Dignitaries such as MP Northumberland-Quinte West Rick Norlock attended along with Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan who said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Coming to Campbellford Memorial Hospital, especially on an occasion like today, for me is like going home. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of an emotional day â&#x20AC;Ś Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had my life saved here on a couple of occasions.â&#x20AC;? Wayne Gladstone, chair of the Central East Local Health Integration Network (CE LHIN) spoke to the crowd offering congratulations to staff, volunteers, board members, Foundation members and the community â&#x20AC;&#x153;who have supported this hospital for 60 years.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a truly wonderful amazing milestone,â&#x20AC;? he commented. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The hospital is certainly a part of the foundation of this community as we can see but it is also an integral part of the CE LHIN and a testament as to what a hospital is all about.â&#x20AC;?

ter IODE stopped by with members Marie Locke and Teresa Shaw. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The IODE was among the early donors to the hospital and we were invited here today to be part of the anniversary celebrations,â&#x20AC;? said Locke. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember back in 1953 when I was in Grade Nine or Ten, I sat outside the high school and watched the hospital foundations going in on the hill.â&#x20AC;? Stories like that were shared throughout the afternoon at the open house. Several past board chairs arrived including Ray Sharp, Paul Smith and Jim Baker. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a lot of changes over the years,â&#x20AC;? they agreed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the new parking lot across the street and we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a CT-Scanner back when. The services offered now are expanded and more specialized,â&#x20AC;? said Sharp. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very successful day for us because of course itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exposing us to the community so they know what our needs are, what we do here. Until you need the services you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really know,â&#x20AC;? said Jill

SPORTS
Heating up for the hottest month of racing By Angela Rinaldi
Sports - In addition to the battle on the big track Saturday night, a highlight to the night for many was watching our future racers hit the Kart Track in the first ever BSP Kart Klub Exhibition. With 11 competitors in two divisions it was a great start to the new form of racing at the track and fans were entertained with both the skill and the learning curve some of these drivers have to go through when starting as young as five years old. The Billâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Johns Comp 4â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hit the track and it was #31 Jeff Howard who led from start to finish. How-
ard picked up the second win of the season while #44 Brandon Wilkie battled hard for second and held off #29 Rich Sanders. Vanderlaanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pro Late Model feature was up next and #92 Adam Turner and #09 Mat Vanderlinden started from the pole. Turner got the early lead and although he had a number of challenges throughout the race he fended them off. Late in the race #57 Charlie Sandercock and #11 Corey Earl, who are in a tight points battle, found themselves sitting second and third and fighting for valuable positions and points. The two of them

applied constant pressure to Turner, but Turner was battling tooth and nail to hold on for the win and became the ninth different winner in the Late Model division this season. Sandercock edged out Earl at the line and closed the Championship battle to 20 points going into September. Gordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Water Vantastics were back for their final appearance of 2013 and early in the feature it looked like #7 Rick â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ricky Bobbyâ&#x20AC;? Phillips was going to pick up his second win of the season but it was #1* Kyle Sopaz who came sweeping by Phillips on the outside and took the win in the 12-lap main event. OILgard Anti Rust Canadian Modifieds saw 19 cars hit the track for their 30-lap Rona Trenton Triple Crown feature event and it was #55 Jamie Marshall who jumped out to the early lead. Marshall led the first 12 laps until the caution came out for #12 Adam Whaley. On the restart Marshall got the jump but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t long until #87 Andrew Hennessy, who has been on a tear since mid season, worked his way past Marshall and went on to take the feature win. Â Marshall held on for second while current points leader Ryan Scott overtook #11 Dan Ferguson for third late in the race. With the win, Hennessy has closed the gap to 100 points within Scott and with the whole month of September plus a double points night coming up, this championship looks like it could come down to the wire as well. Brighton Automotive Pro Stocks were the final feature of the night and #03 of Justin Ramsay looked to be in control of the race trying to get his first feature win, however, a late race bobble in turns 3 and 4 was enough to let #72 Doug Anderson move underneath him and go on to take the win. Â Ramsay held on for second while Percy Walsh had a great run with some late race passes to come up to third place. Go Kart Feature wins went to #23Z Riaah Lough in the Box Stock Division and #3r Nathan Rinaldi in the JR division. September heats up with events
Number 92 Adam Turner took his first Late Model Feature Win on Saturday night as he held off #57 Charlie Sandercock at Brighton Speedway.

Plowing Match draws near record crowds for 25th
Tristin Bouthilier, at 11 years old, was the youngest competitor in the horse plowing division at the recent Plowing Match. Also pictured is show volunteer Kim Hadwen. The 25th edition of the Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show saw about 16,000 people attend the two-day event By Richard Turtle
Events - Quinte West - With the 25th edition of the Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show behind them, organizers were once again pleased with the results of a year’s worth of planning. Last week about 16,000 people attended the two-day event, hosted by Doug Parr and Bruce Philp, that offered a look at some of the latest advances in agricultural technology
alongside some of the oldest operating machines from the past. And with a brief downpour arriving in the middle of the second day, visitors were also forced to contend with weather. But for the most part, organizers say, things were close to perfect. Plowing Match President Jim Gunning told crowds during opening ceremonies that the show now has a rich history creating a firm foundation for the future. “Just imagine the next 25
years,” he said before a host of special guests, elected officials and dignitaries were introduced. County Warden Rick Phillips, also impressed by the opening day turnout, commented on the continuing growth of the show, noting, “I’m amazed at how much bigger and better it gets every year.” Quinte West Mayor John Williams also praised organizers, noting, “it is a pleasure for Quinte West to host the
25th anniversary show.” And with about 300 exhibitor displays, both active and static, plowing competitions, family activities, the crowning of the Hasting County Queen of the Furrow and daily antique tractor parades, there was plenty to see and do for all in attendance. Officials also recognized one of their own, Evelyn Burkitt, who passed away earlier this year, by making a donation in her name to the Trenton
Memorial Hospital Foundation in the amount of $5,000. Family members Bob and Maribeth Burkitt were invited onstage for the presentation, which also recognized Burkitt’s long history with the farm show, made by Committee Treasurer Bruce DeMille to TMHF Chair John Smiley. As well during opening ceremonies, students Shaelyn Prins and Jackie Sills were each awarded $1,500 Please see “New Queen” on page B8
OFA delegation tours Hastings County By Richard Turtle
News - Stirling - A delegation from the Ontario Federation of Agriculture (OFA) made a trip to Hastings County last week where it held its monthly meeting and toured some of the local sights. Hastings County Federation of Agriculture President Gayle Grills says the visit marked the first time officials from the OFA have collectively travelled to Hastings County for one of their regular meetings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a real pleasure for us,â&#x20AC;? she says. OFA President Mark Wales says the organization, made up
of representatives from across the province, usually meets in Guelph through the year but has taken to holding its summer meetings in other locations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives us all a chance to see something different,â&#x20AC;? Wales said prior to a dinner held at Farmtown Park last Tuesday evening that wrapped up the tour, adding there is always something to learn. However, Wales says, most of the participants, including himself, were unfortunately returning home immediately after the tour and were unable to attend the Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show
the following day. Representatives from outside the area were able to take in some of the local sights as well as learn more about a proposed gravel pit and the potential impact it would have on surrounding farmland. Wales notes the OFA has become a lobbying force where upper levels of government are concerned adding it is critical for farmers to maintain that voice in order to provide insights into the industry and its people. Wales, who also serves as a municipal councillor in Malahide Township, was also joined by locally elected officials from

Children’s Family concert brings community together By Sue Dickens
News - Campbellford - “Our dream for Africa,” is how Roxanne Flagler describes the work of the Mully Children’s Family (MCF) a non-profit organization that held its second annual fundraising concert in Old Mill Park last Saturday. Slow to start, passersby heard the music from the many artists and musicians who performed throughout the concert which took place from 1 through 9 p.m. and the concert drew quite a crowd with people coming and going throughout the afternoon. “I think it is the community coming together for a really great cause,” said Flagler, who organized the event. “At times there wasn’t a lot of people and other times there were and what I heard was all positive remarks,” she added. The concert also attracted boaters who had stopped on the Trent Severn at Campbellford. “We have a lot of different entertainers and they all have their own following,” she commented. Flagler is a member of the Chord of Three a singing group that does pop and a bit of spiritual music. They wrapped
up the event by performing. “We do a little bit of everything. We really harmonize well,” said Flagler who sings in the group with Barb Robbins and Diane Stanford, all from Trent Hills. “This concert just gives people a chance to chill and listen to music for free and gives us a chance to sing and raise money through donations,” said Flagler. “If we bring a smile to someone’s face today with music that is great and we also are being given an opportunity to help children in another country,” commented Robbins. Stanford was keen on hearing other people’s music. “I think this is a great opportunity to have other people influence what you do. I’ve been singing since I was four years old,” she said. Buckets were set up in the park for anyone wanting to donate to the Mully Children fund. Mully Children’s Family (MCF) is a non-profit-making, non-political, non-governmental Christian organization founded by Dr. Charles Mulli and Esther Mulli. Dr. Mulli is a former Kenyan street child turned
millionaire who gave everything away to care for street children. The organization has welcomed more than 8,000 children into the Mully Children’s Family. At the moment the homes care for 2,010 children between the ages of one week to 24 years, both boys and girls. Flagler, who founded Second Chance Ministries in 2001 has her own vision, to reach those who were in need of a second, third, fourth change. “I’ve been looking for a legitimate organization to support and Mully Children’s Family is it,” she said. Dorothy Ann Robbie from Tamworth was in the lineup of performers that day as well. “I do gospel, country but today I will sing southern gospel and maybe a bit of eastern Gaelic,” she said smiling. “I’ve known Roxie for years. I think it’s a great day, a great cause, and I am all for it.” Flagler said she hopes to host the event again next year. “It’s a fund raiser that is well worthy of its name and we hope to continue to carry it on.” The Chord of Three musical trio wrapped up the Mully Children’s Family concert held in Campbellford last weekend to raise No word at press time as to money to help orphaned, abandoned and abused children in Africa: from left, Barb Robbins; Roxanne Flagler, organizer; and how much money was raised.

Paws Fur Thought campaign marching into Quinte area
News - Trenton - A Star of Courage recipient, and former Search and Rescue crew member, and his faithful companion Thai, his post-traumatic stress disorder service dog, will bring the Paws Fur Thought campaign to the Northumberland and Hastings counties regions beginning August 30. Captain (retired) Medric Cousineau and Thai are walking across part of Canada for Paws Fur Thought to raise awareness of the benefits of pairing service dogs with those suffering with PTSD. The goal of the campaign is to raise funds for 50 dogs for 50 veterans. Cousineau and Thai will bring the campaign into Norwood-Havelock on August 30, Marmora - August 31 and September 1, Stirling - September 2, Trenton - September 3, Belleville on September 4 and Tweed on September 5, Collins Bay on September 7, RMC on September 8, Kingston on September 9, Renfrew on September 12, Arnprior on September 13, Smiths Falls on September 15, Perth on September 16, Carleton Place on September 17, Kanata on September 18 and Ottawa on September 19, according to the Paws Fur Thought web site. Canadian Army Veterans Riding Club, 83 units and 4,800-plus members strong, will be supporting the Walk through this portion of the trek. On the night he earned the Star of Courage, Lieutenant Cousineau was serving with 12 Wing Shearwater as a tactical co-ordinator on a Sea King helicopter whose primary role was anti-submarine warfare. However, his secondary role was Search and Rescue. The following text is from his Star of Courage citation: On the night of October 6, 1986, Lieutenant Medric Cousineau, a member of the crew of a Canadian Armed Forces Search and Rescue helicopter, risked his life in order to effect the rescue of two seriously injured crewmen from an American fishing boat. At the time of the rescue it was dark and weather conditions were terrible, with rain,
strong winds and heavy seas; and the deck of the boat, which was pitching and rolling continuously, was obscured by antennae, fishing apparatus and machinery. Fully aware of the hazardous conditions, Lieutenant Cousineau volunteered to be lowered to the deck of the vessel in order to move the injured men from the boat to the helicopter. On the first attempt he was thrown overboard when the boat pitched violently, but on a second attempt, although he fell into the sea, he managed to scramble aboard. He was able, despite the flying spray and the tremendous noise of the large helicopter hovering close overhead, to quickly organize the preparation and evacuation of the two injured crewmen. Had Lieutenant Cousineau not willingly put his own life in jeopardy, both of the injured men would certainly have died. As great as that rescue was, former Captain Cousineau has struggled with PTSD for the 26 years since that rescue. His life only took a change for the better almost two years ago when he received his service dog, Thai. Since that time, he’s lost weight, reduced his medication and deals better with stress and anger. He now hopes to bring similar aid to 50 other veterans through the Paws Fur Thought campaign. He hopes to raise $350,000 through the campaign and to bring awareness to Canadians at both the political and social levels. So far, the Paws Fur Thought campaign has found four dogs for veterans and there are seven more in the queue, according to volunteer spokesperson Hugh Ellis. And awareness grows with each visit to another community. “Medric is holding up surprisingly well,” Mr. Ellis noted. “He has eight pairs of boots broken in and his training was excellent. It is incredibly rewarding to him to talk to all the veterans and he’s honoured to meet them. His visit also seems to be creating a thread to join all the Legions he’s visited.” Ellis added the walk is a ton of work for Captain Cousineau and emotionally draining.
“He finds it sad and difficult to talk to the veterans and their families,” he said. “It’s a big emotional load to carry.” Emotional loads are exactly what Captain Cousineau does not need to carry. Having suffered from posttraumatic stress disorder since 1986, Captain Cousineau has spent a lot of time in a garden shed with just one door and one window because he could always get his back against the wall, according to Mr. Ellis. “Since being paired with his service dog [Thai], there has been an immense change in him.” Mr. Ellis said Captain Cousineau sees the service dog as a direct replacement for his drugs and treatment. “It’s a very poorly understood illness,” Mr. Ellis said. “The people who treat vets for PTSD are open-minded but not convinced,” he said. “Cous wants to formalize the use of dogs for PTSD sufferers through the campaign and promote it as a useful aid.” PTSD has weighed heavily on Captain Cousineau to the point he has made several attempts to kill himself, according to Mr. Ellis. While PTSD is more often thought to be connected with combat zone situations, Mr. Ellis explains it a little differently, especially in conjunction with Captain Cousineau. He says it can stem from any situation where there might be an unbearable flood of adrenalin. “In the rescue situation, he recalls five times in about five minutes
when he really thought he was going to die,” Mr. Ellis said. “It was a short, very intense thing that caused this for him. It’s like there is a sense of utter helplessness to control the situation of the day, like there’s just nothing that can be done about it.” And that’s the situation those treating the illness and government officials must grasp when discussing PTSD, Mr. Ellis feels. A very short period of time under incredible duress can trigger PTSD symptoms. During the visit to Trenton, it is expected Captain Cousineau will visit the Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial. The Legion Branch 110 is holding a fund-raising dance on August 30 for the event and then will sponsor a barbecue on September 3 at 4:30 p.m. called Hot Dogs 4 Service Dogs. Former Captain Cousineau will also make several appearances in the community, although many of those events won’t be finalized until just prior to the visit. For the Belleville visits, a much more formalized event structure has been

established. The day starts at Elmwood Cemetery at approximately 8 a.m. and proceeds along River Road to Cannifton Road. From Cannifton Road, Captain Cousineau continues on to the Veterans Bridge and then on to the Sports Centre. He continues down Station Street to the Cenotaph, then on to Moira Street to visit the Log Cabin. Captain Cousineau will then take the Waterfront Trail to Front Street and the Loyalist Monument. He proceeds down Front Street south to Meyers Pier, then on to St. Paul Street. He goes east on St. Paul past he old Anglican Church to Foster Avenue, north to Bridge Street, east on Bridge Street to Glanmore National Historic Site, then west on Bridge Street to Ann Street, north to the Corby Rose Gardens, then back to Bridge Street, passing the Anglican Church where the Hasty P’s colours are kept and on to the Armouries and the Hasty P’s Museum. The final stop is the Legion at approximately 3:30 p.m. for a reception and perhaps some dignitary speeches and cheque presentations.

LIFESTYLES
The Good Earth:
Reality Check: Lifestyles - A great teacher can be transformational in a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life, but those with the greatest inďŹ&#x201A;uence for helping children succeed at school this year wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be employees of school boards. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be parents. What can we do to launch our children well this new school year? Here are a few thoughts. First, get them ready to learn, and that means that they have to be well-rested. Too many kids do not get enough sleep. In fact, lack of sleep has been heavily linked to ADD and a host of other learning difďŹ culties. Children under the age of 13 need, on average, 10 to 11 hours of sleep a night. Teens need more than we think, too, up to nine hours. To make teens sleep, turn off the wiďŹ at 10:30 every
night, and put all phones on the charger in a central place. To help younger kids sleep, enforce a bed time, which means enforcing a bed time routine. Start getting kids ready for bed much earlier than they need to be asleep. Read them a story. Give them a bath. Help them to relax. One reason so many kids donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sleep well is because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve overscheduled. If kids are in activities until 8 p.m. several nights a week, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to get a decent nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sleep. Parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; work schedules often impede sleep, too. If a parent isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t home until 7:30 or 8, chances are that parent wants to spend time with the kids before they turn in. Resist the urge to keep kids up, and ďŹ nd ways to connect with them at other times of day. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a second thought to help kids get ready to learn:

Scorch and tatters
problems. Hot and dry is the recipe for scorch. Scorch is not a disease nor is it a condition caused by insects. Scorch usually shows up as yellowing between veins and leaf margins (the edges) and can be followed by the leaf turning brown and falling off. Sometimes, the yellowing isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t apparent. There is only one reason for leaf scorch: the root system of the plant canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t supply moisture quickly enough to the leaf. The reasons for that, however, can be a titch more complicated. Often insufďŹ cient water in the soil is the cause, such as during a drought or in street plantings. Add water. Another reason may be an insufďŹ cient root system to supply the canopy such as after transplanting (root tips can be damaged and need time to re-grow). Add water slowly, preferably with a drip line. If there is root pruning because of excavation and construction, call in an arborist who will likely suggest pruning the top bits to balance
everything out â&#x20AC;Ś add water. Also root death owing to compaction (aerate soil and limit trafďŹ c) or oxygen starvation (often caused by a tree being planted too deeply and then covered up with too much mulch); the root ball should be planted ďŹ&#x201A;ush with existing grade and a maximum of two inches mulch on top of that. Something seen in many new subdivisions, is large trees being planted on shallow soils. Shallow soil refers to the crumbly stuff above rocks, such as shale and limestone and clay hardpans (the clay is compacted so tightly that it might as well be a rock) both of which are common in our area. The best piece of advice, IMHO, is plant the smallest tree you can afford to look at and then wait. Within a decade, it will surpass the larger tree. The larger tree will cost more, require extra soil to berm up, extra care and, until ďŹ rmly anchored, be at risk for toppling in high winds. The cost of one large tree equals many
smaller trees, enough to start your own arboretum. It is rare that leaf scorch will kill a tree. Leaf scorch is a valuable indicator that something is not right. At this time of year, the apparent cause is a combination of little rainfall and hot, drying winds. When leaf scorch occurs at other times a close examination of cultural causes is in order. (GR, â&#x20AC;&#x153;culturalâ&#x20AC;? in this context refers to things that we do in terms of how we manage the environment for that plant.) Tatters is what happens to a scorched leaf when it is windy. It looks as if the leaf is being munched to bits by an insect; actually, the wind is blowing away the dead bits. Maples are most susceptible to this as are horse chestnuts and lindens. Often homeowners will bring in a scorched leaf and a tattered leaf thinking they have two problems. Take care of your trees and they will take care of you.
Helping our kids succeed in school encourage imaginative play. Most kids today play primarily with technology, on devices and phones, on video games, or on computers. Yet these are largely passive modes of entertainment. Even video games, which arguably are more interactive, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t require imagination in the same way as traditional play did. Take some time after dinner every day and turn all devices off. Then limit the kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; toys. Kids donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need a lot to play with: they can build forts with blankets; they can construct things out of pots and pans; they can create homes for dolls out of towels. Boredom is the mother of invention. Encourage more hands-on toys,
too, like LEGO or puzzles that teach spatial ability. Third, make reading a central part of your home. Read every night to the kids before they go to bed. For long car trips listen to books on CD or iPod. Enforce a strict bedtime but tell kids they can stay up half an hour longer if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re reading or looking at books. Kids may even get in the habit of always needing a good book to help them get to sleep! Finally, make learning a natural part of a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the grocery store, tell them, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going on a hunt for the letter B,â&#x20AC;? and ďŹ nd all the things that start with the B-uh sound. (Broccoli? Bread? Beans?
What about pancake mix? See if they can tell the difference!) You can do this with numbers, too. When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re at Tim Hortons, ask them to ďŹ gure out the change. If that would take too long, just start explaining yourself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I need thirty-ďŹ ve cents. That means a quarter and a dime, because a quarter is twenty-ďŹ ve cents and a dime is ten cents!â&#x20AC;? Kids are born to be little sponges. They take everything in, and they love learning, because it helps them make sense of the world. So talk about everything youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing. Show them patterns. And then give some down time to sleep. Do that, and them time to absorb all of that chances are your kids will do very well with some down time to play and this year.

Dry stone wall workshop brings the past to the present Friends of Ferris (FofF), Canada (DSWAC) has resulted in a solNews - Campbellford - Ontario Parks and the Dry id foundation for the annual restoration The collaboration between Stone Walling Association of project of the century-old wall at Ferris Provincial Park. With shovels and buckets and string in hand the â&#x20AC;&#x153;wallersâ&#x20AC;? gathered last Saturday to take part in what has become a tradition at the park. Once a portion of the wall has been taken down it is rebuilt. Learning how to rebuild these 100year-old historic structures is the focus of the course. The hands-on beginnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dry stone walling course was led by Sean Donnelly, recently Level III certiďŹ ed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are levelling off the ground and taking out some of the roots, making sure the foundation stones are pulled up and set aside,â&#x20AC;? explained Donnelly, a craftsman who specializes in building walls, sculptures, and landscape features using a variety of natural stone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need a good solid foundation,â&#x20AC;? he commented.

Dan Clost Lifestyles - Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just experienced a typical summer cycle of hot, humid weather followed by hot, windy weather closed out by a bit of a cold front with its accompanying rain. During the hot, humid spell, we went indoors. For the hot and dry bit, we played outside. We enjoyed the â&#x20AC;&#x153;coolingâ&#x20AC;? effect of the wind and we also
enjoyed various types of libation; from water to buttermilk to more recreational liquids. We went indoors and languished in the air-conditioned environment. If we were still too warm we swam or popped into the shower. During the cool and wet, we put on sweaters and turned off the sprinklers. Our trees and shrubs, being ďŹ rmly rooted in place, arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite so mobile. Hot and humid is the recipe for disease and insect problems. The most helpful care stewards of this good earth (that would be you, Gentle Reader) can give is to ensure that their plants are healthy prior to the arrival of this weather. We know this is an annual occurrence so there is no real excuse for not being prepared. So, hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the bottom-line checklist: the right plant in the right cultural environment, good nutrition, good pruningâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;which also improves air circulation through the canopy; and, monitoring for the onset of
course at Ferris gave him an opportunity to work on its restoration and teach students wanting to learn about the process. Students such as Evan Oxland learned the value of the workshop. â&#x20AC;&#x153;During the dismantling process itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important you sort your stones in a certain right way. We roll our foundations out so they are close by to roll back in.â&#x20AC;? Oxland is from Port Hope and was an instructor at previous dry stone wall courses. He is a volunteer with the DSWAC. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We like to stack the stones like books on a bookshelf so we can see their thickness,â&#x20AC;? he added. Kenny Davis, another waller, and a volunteer with the DSWAC, said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am doing this because the walls are awesome to look at and somebody took a lot of time to gather all the stone a long time ago and we need to be respectful to keep it going.â&#x20AC;? For Paul Ehnes, of Erin, a waller and student, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about learning the techniques. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have done a bit of stone walling before but I want to learn more,â&#x20AC;? he said. Please see â&#x20AC;&#x153;Workshopâ&#x20AC;? on page B5
TRAVEL
Attending training camp of the Green Bay Packers By John M. Smith
Lifestyles - I recently had the good fortune to be invited to the training camp of the Green Bay Packers—but as a travel writer, not a player! Nevertheless, I quickly jumped at this opportunity, for I’ve liked this franchise from back in the 1960s when the Packers won the very first Super Bowl. In fact, this city is known as “Titletown U.S.A.” for its Green Bay Packers have won 13 “world championships,” the most of any NFL team, dating all the way back to their first title in 1929, and this winning streak has included four Super Bowls (1966, 1967, 1996, and 2010). What makes this all the more phenomenal is that the Green Bay Packers are the only communityowned NFL team (no billionaire owner here), and the team plays in the league’s smallest market/
city. It’s difficult to overstate what this football team has meant to the city of Green Bay, Wisconsin, for it just keeps bringing in the tourists. On the particular day I attended training camp, the stands at the practice field, Ray Nitschke Field, were totally packed, and other spectators were lined up to simply try to get a glimpse of a player. My favourite part of the day was actually just before the actual football practice, for young Packers fans traditionally line up in front of Lambeau Field with their bicycles, by the locker room doors, and eagerly await the emerging players, hoping one of them will choose to ride their particular bicycle across the road to Ray Nitschke Field. The chosen youngster will then gladly and proudly carry the player’s
helmet and walk next to the rider. I even witnessed some players and youngsters wearing matching numbers on their Packers jerseys! I don’t believe this bicycle ritual occurs anywhere else in the NFL, but this awesome tradition is “magical” here. What great public relations! I can imagine these chosen youngsters will be avid fans for life! Some of the gigantic linemen will even choose a very young child’s bicycle, impossible for them to ride, so they’ll simply carry it in one hand and grab the youngster’s hand with the other. I was told some players have even searched out a particular local youngster day after day, developed a relationship with him/her over time, and eventually taken the whole family out for lunch! After watching the actual prac-

roof, where I got a great overview of this mammoth facility. More seats have recently been added; seating about 80,000, it’s now the third largest stadium in the NFL—and it’s always sold out! I was told the waiting list for season tickets is now at about 125,000! One dad told me that when his son was born, he immediately put him on this waiting list. He’s now 21 years old, and he still has more than 25,000 ahead of him on that list! Yes, the fans are loyal, and the franchise is a great success! While in Green Bay, I also checked out Packers’ history by taking the Packers Heritage Trail Trolley Tour, where I stopped at such sites as their old playing field, City Stadium, now used by a high school, and at several com-
Workshop highlighted in time lapse Continued from page B4
Carol Robertson, a longtime member of Friends of Ferris, chaired the event. “This year, our fifth workshop, there are 15 people working on this section of the walls, the most so far!” she said with enthusiasm. The only revenue this non-profit group of volunteers receives from the event is the $5 per car paid at the gate of Ferris Park. Many volunteers helped make it happen including Barb and Bob Hogan, who held a barbecue for the participants. Parks staff prepared the site, monitored visitors to the demonstration and shared the cost of lunches with FofF, offering free campsites and doing the cleanup. Sitting near the action, Grace Barker, a longtime member of FofF took photos every ten minutes hoping it will result in a time-lapse production. “We’d like to show it at the Aron but first we have to see if this works. It’s very low tech,” she said with a grin. To learn more about this annual event go to: drystonecanada.com or contact Jacqueline Jeffers, co-ordinator at 416Ian Davis, left, with a bucket, and student Felix Tang, right, participated in the dry stone walling workshop rebuilding the 323-1932. century-old wall and learning how the historic structure was built.

memorative plaques. I also visited the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame, where I found about 80 exhibits, including Super Bowl rings and trophies, a re-enactment of the renowned “Lambeau Leap,” and a re-creation of Vince Lombardi’s office. I also dined at Brett Favre’s Steakhouse with its Packers memorabilia and the Titletown Brewing Company where a large statue of former receiver Donald Driver is displayed outside. I also checked out statues of founder/coach Curly Lambeau and coach Vince Lombardi in front of the stadium itself. Of course, I just had to visit the Packers Pro Shop, too to get some authentic souvenirs such as my very own jersey and cheese head, almost required attire on game day!

tice, I visited a nearby “Packer House.” This particular duplex, “Under the Lights of Lambeau,” <www.underthelightsoflambeau.com>, was located directly across from Lambeau Field, and it was rented out on game weekends to avid Packers’ fans who wanted to be right next to the action (for about $2,500). It sleeps six to eight people, and is decorated in all things green and gold for those beloved Packers: bedspreads, cushions, cutlery, garbage cans, shower curtain, etc. Even the front lawn is carefully filled with fans’ cars on game day—at a cost, of course! I also took the Lambeau Field Stadium Tour and walked through the players’ tunnel. I visited the exclusive Club Level, too, and ascended to the stadium

T hank You
We would like to thank everyone who very generously donated auction items to Team Emily and to everyone who came out to support us. We would also like to thank Radio Flyer, Blue angel, and The Strumberries for the amazing live music. We can’t begin to express what your gifts means to our family. The money will be so helpful to us in this difficult time. But more than the monetary value, we so greatly appreciate the thought behind the gift. The last year has been hard on us, but your actions have really lightened the load, and our hearts. For that especially, we thank you. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts. - Jason, Sherry, Brandon, and Emily
