Addington Highlands to consult the public over cannabis
A
mong local councils, Addington Highlands has been the most pro-active over cannabis regulations. This is, at least in part, because the township was notified by residents several months ago that two separate growing operations were up and running within its bor-

ders. One of them is an open-air plantation, and the other appears to be a greenhouse operation that is just getting going. The township heard
uttan to chair Limestone Board of Trustees in 2019. Suzanne Ruttan has been the South Frontenac Township trustee to the Limestone District School Board since 2010. She has served as the Board Vice Chair for the past three years, and when the new Board was sworn to office last night in Kingston, she assumed the role of Chair of the Board of Trustees for 2019. “We held elections for officers and committee appointments at a working meeting last

about one of the operations from a resident who expressed a concern over the smell. After making inquiries to the OPP and the federal government, the township found out that the operations are federally regulated medical marijuana operations. Not only does the township have no jurisdiction over them, but the federal government will not even respond to requests for information. “The only group that has any control over medical marijuana is the government of Canada,” said Reeve Henry Hogg. “I don’t mind saying I find this rather frustrating.” Council met this week in a special session to talk about cannabis retailing, and once again they found their options are rather limited. “We have the ability to opt in or opt out,” said Hogg, “but if we opt in, we can’t pass any kind of zoning restrictions. The stores, which must be free
standing, also need to be located 150 metres away from a school or a community centre, but we can’t impose any other limitations on numbers or on location. Any commercial location is available.” The township will be receiving $5,000 to cover added costs related to cannabis, and if it says yes to cannabis retailing it will receive another $5,000 next year and will be eligible for funding in future years. If the township says no, it can say yes later on, but once it says yes it can never rescind that approval And any jurisdiction that turns down cannabis retailing before the January 22 deadline, may also be forfeiting eligibility for further funding. “The Province is setting aside $10 million of the municipal funding to address costs from unforeseen circumstances related to the legalisation of recreational cannabis, and priority will be given to
municipalities that have not opted-out. Further details will be provided at a later date,” said Ontario Minister of Finance, Vic Fedeli, in a letter to municipalities on November 20. A week later, the Deputy Ontario Finance Minister Greg Orencsak sent a letter to municipal treasurers containing further details about municipal funding. The total amount of provincial funding has been set at $40 million, to be doled out over 2 years. Orencsak’s letter underlined that municipalities that opt out will be forfeiting provincial money. “If a municipality has opted-out of hosting private retail stores in accordance with the Cannabis License Act, it will receive a maximum of $5,000. Please note that if a municipality opts-out by January 22, 2019, and opts back in at a later date, that municipality will not be eligible for additional funding,” said Orencsak.

week,” she said when interviewed on Tuesday, and I put my name forward and ended up being the only candidate. There was an election for Vice-Chair and the position ended up going to Laurie French, another veteran trustee who represents Napanee. Ruttan and French are two of only three returning members on the 9-member board, the third being Karen McGregor from Central and North Frontenac and Addington Highlands. “We have a lot of new trustees,” said Ruttan,
“and my goal is to make sure that they have the best start that they can. There were orientation sessions for the new board of trustees in November, and one aspect of the training was to clarify for the trustees that we function as a governance board, and as such do not have a direct role in the day to day functioning of the board and its schools. “As a governance board, we are totally focussed on the big picture of the whole board, making sure we are following our strategic directions at all times. As
a Board, we have one employee to oversee, the Director of Education.” As board Chair, Ruttan is responsible, with help from the director, for setting meeting

Organizers Alison Williams and Laura Simmons get a hug from Santa at the Holiday Market last Saturday in Prince Charles Public School.
Holiday Market packs PCPS on a snowy day by Craig Bakay utside, there were huge snowflakes falling and cars were parked all along Road 38. Inside Prince Charles Public School, there was the hustle and bustle of the 13th annual Holiday Market, a cooperative effort between the school’s parents council and the Frontenac Farmers Market. Alison Williams, the PCPS PTA chair had a big grin on her face when asked about the huge turnout. “I have fun no matter where I go,” she said. “But actually, I’m over the moon about this. “It’s our major fundraiser for the school and we did advertise the heck out of it. “We have great community spirit here.” While the Holiday Market stared 13 years ago, the school only became an official partner six years ago but it’s proved very successful for them, Williams said. “Our job at the PTA is to enhance the school for our students,” she

said. “Last year we bought stationary bikes. “This year, we’re looking at sports equipment and an upgrade to our culinary classes equipment and maybe some lights for the holiday concert.” There were more than 65 vendors this year, along with breakfast and lunch facilities. There were donation boxes for the school and non-perishable food items. From the Farmers Market side, Laura Simmons said she was surprised at the number of shares the FaceBook page got. “It’s the same weekend every year and we’re getting to the point where people look forward to it now,” she said. And Simmons too was clearly enjoying the day. “Yes, it’s a good time,” she said. “That’s part of the point. “I really want to thank the volunteers and the community for all the support,” she said. “It’s not just a two women show.”

Sutherland challenges closed meeting procedure SF Committee of the Whole by Wilma Kenny
S
outh Frontenac Council began their COW meeting an hour early, in order to hold a closed Session prior to the main meeting. The four agenda items for the closed session were listed as:”Litigation; Matters concerning an Identifiable Individual (listed twice, as two separate items); and Matters subject to Client Solicitor”. This is South Frontenac’s usual way of introducing “in camera” sessions. This week Councillor Sutherland attempted to make a motion challenging the minimal nature of the information given to the public concerning the nature of the matters to be discussed, prior to going into closed session. Quoting the Ontario Ombudsman who said the motion to hold a closed meeting must: “give as much information about the subject as possible, without undermining the reason for closing the meeting,” Sutherland contended that telling the public what the general subject of the meeting is to be, would increase transparency and openness. He registered his disapproval at what he saw as ‘improper procedure.’ Mayor Vandewal reminded Sutherland that this was a Committee of the Whole meeting, and motions could only be voted on at Council meetings. He deferred to CAO Orr, as the authority on procedure. Orr said he had ‘sought advice’ on the issue, and felt Council was acting appropriately. “We are following the procedure we have used for the past nine years.” “I will bring this motion back,” said Sutherland, as Council moved into closed session.
Splash Pad Report Recreation Supervisor Tim Laprade presented a feasibility report on a splash pad park, prepared at the request of the Loughborough and Portland district recreation committees. The report listed preferred locations, benefits, risks, capitol and operating costs, and included comments from other municipalities. There seems to be strong support from the increasing number of young families in the area, and almost all the municipalities that have installed splash pads report that they are extremely successful and well-used. However, there is little question that they are expensive to build, and have high ongoing operating costs. All the returning Council members were reluctant to move forward without first taking into consideration the rest of the Township’s recreational costs and needs. Councillor Morey asked whether any community groups had shown interest in doing serious fundraising for the project. Laprade said there had been ‘some awareness’. Sleeth was not in favour; “There are lakes everywhere we look.” (One of the proposed sites was Harrowsmith, where there is no nearby lake.) Revill, though listing some of the pending costs for maintaining the Township arena, said the demographic was changing. Mayor Vandewal said “There will always be large-ticket items; I’d like to see a more strategic long-term recreation report, which would include (this proposal) as well as other pending recreation needs. if we’re putting this off for now, the public needs to know why, and what our long-

term vision is.” Skate Park Feasibility Laprade’s second report recommended Council increase the budget for a skateboard feasibility study from 2018’s (unused) $5,000 to a maximum of $15,000 for 2019. The study was not done last year, for study proposals from skate park companies had ranged from $13,500 to $50,000. For several years, there have been delegations and petitions to Council asking for a skateboard park in South Frontenac. A feasibility study based on consultation with the skate park advisory group would provide a concept plan, a draft implementation plan including costs, funding opportunities, and location recommendations. Mayor Vandewal said that the increasing number of young families meant that a splash pad would have more ‘uptake.’ Sutherland said the skateboard group is a poorly-served population, and Roberts said that there have been skateboard requests coming to Council for many years, now. Revill said a feasibility study would give Council ‘something to work with.” Laprade’s recommendation will go forward for budget consideration. Fire Services: Operational Review and Recommendations Fire Chief Darcy Knott spoke to a 51 page report with 25 recommendations. (“I trust you have all read this,” said Mayor Vandewal to Council.) Saying that “The current state of the department is good and has a potential to be great,” Knott outlined the needs for an increase in the level of service to residents, greater accountability, and steps to mitigate liability. Some of these issues can be attributed to changes in legislation, and some to lack of full amalgamation of the Township’s fire services. Knott listed his top priorities: 1)Hire an Assistant Deputy Chief of fire prevention, 2)Recruit 25 more firefighters, using a

This would be used to refill the Department’s 100 air bottles, both annually and after each use. Usual cost of such units is between $135,000 and $155,000 new: Knott has an option on a lightly-used one for $32,000, fully serviced and warranted. Currently the Township has the use of a non-mobile unit on short-term loan. 7)Spare pagers: some are needed for reserve when the present ones need repairs. Council agreed that Knott should not have to wait for the budget process to get the Air Unit: reserve funds could be used now, and replaced from the 2019 budget. They also asked him to get prices on a bulk purchase of pagers to serve present needs and to supply the anticipated new volunteer recruits. Knott will bring this information to next week’s Council meeting. Cataraqui Trail Restructuring Councillor Sutherland reported from the Cataraqui Conservation Authority that there had been a restructuring of the responsibilities for the Cataraqui Trail. Though the Trail has always been owned by the Conservation Authority, it has until now been maintained by a volunteer work group of Friends of the Cat Trail. However, due to some major need for expensive repairs (especially several washouts), the Conservation Authority will assume responsibility for the trail upkeep, with continuing assistance from the volunteer group.
“The minister spoke to our provincial group last weekend, and I believe her message was that the group ‘will be pleased when we see what comes out’ of that process. We also know that when the government is looking for budget savings, they are going to look at education, so that may have an impact on our board. 2019 is also a bargaining year for education,” she said. There is a one-year term for the position of Chair of the Limestone Board of Trustees. Ruttan can run again for 2020 if she chooses to, as can any of the 8 other board members.

CF Council – December 11
by Craig Bakay entral Frontenac Council passed a bylaw allowing for the installation of a stop sign on Cross Road at Armstrong Road at its regular meeting Tuesday in Oso Hall. Acting Public Works Manager David Armstrong said this is the final stage of a project begun in September to provide clear sight lines and safe access at the three-way intersection. The road work has been completed. “This project began two or three public works managers before me when they began acquiring land,” Armstrong said. “It’s basically to clean up the intersection. He said costs for these works are accounted for in the 2018 maintenance budget. Frontenac Heritage Festival Council promised to look at an increase in funding for the Frontenac Heritage Festival when it meets for budget talks Jan. 30. Mike Procter and Joan Hollywood told Council that their ranks have been “somewhat decimated” and as such, they haven’t the bodies to go to businesses asking for donations. “We’re asking Council for $2,000, which is what they used to give us but somehow that was reduced to $1,000 last year,” Procter said. “Last year, we got $1,100 in donations but we’re estimating that will be down to $500 this year. “Our budget is about $2,000 but anything we don’t use goes right back to the Township.” Cemetery plot price increase The price of plots at the township cemeteries are scheduled to increase in 2019 with the cost to residents rising to $531.01 from $524.95 and for non-residents to $655.27 from $646.18. Coun. Bill MacDonald said he thought prices for non-residents were too low, noting that plots in Toronto can cost “thousands of dollars.” Administrative Assistant Donna Long-

That compares with $9,239,860 in 2017 and $7,540,759 in 2016. “Anything in the pipe that would edge that over $10 million?” asked Coun. Bill MacDonald. “It would take almost $500,000 so I’m thinking no,” said acting CBO Alan Revill.

Re – Hartington subdivision
T
he Hartington Community Association (HCA) was formed to pursue public concerns about the quantity and quality of groundwater in the Hartington area. Local residents and farmers are dependent on private wells for drinking water and livestock watering purposes. This fact, together with ongoing problems in well wwater yield experienced by area residents, prompted the HCA to participate in the 2017 public hearing held under the Planning Act in relation to the proposed Hartington subdivision. This hearing was triggered by appeals by the subdivision proponent when Frontenac County failed to make timely decisions on the draft plan of subdivision and proposed re-zoning. The Local Planning Appeal Tribunal’s decision dated November 15, 2018 approved the subdivision, but imposed a number of important conditions intended to safeguard water resources in the area. These conditions require the subdivision proponent to conduct additional testing and to submit various environmental reports, including detailed studies of

the local soils, hydrogeological factors, groundwater quality, stormwater management, on-site septic systems and well water interference. The adequacy of these future reports will be reviewed by public authorities, such as Frontenac County, South Frontenac Township,Quinte Conservation, and the local health unit. From a groundwater quantity perspective, the Tribunal’s overall objective is to ensure that the aquifer is not “mined” by adding new private wells to service the subdivision lots. The HCA agrees with this paramount goal, and calls upon these public authorities to ensure that it is fully achieved in this case. The HCA and its legal counsel, the Canadian Environmental Law Association, are committed to ensuring that the Tribunal’s conditions are strictly adhered to, that public authorities make appropriate evidence-based decisions on the forthcoming reports from the proponent, and that local residents are kept fully informed of next steps in this matter.

It was a wonderful afternoon. • And on December 5th , the Forget Me Nots got together at the Seniors’ Residence to see the Land O’Lakes Cloggers’ toe-tapping, hand clapping music. The room was full. I love them. They gave us all tiny Santa Claus hats to wear, and also sang Christmas carols and songs. The next “Forget-Me-Nots” is December 19, from 10:30am until noon, with “The Next New Band”. Also, a great big thank you to Alice Gilchrist and her sister Jessie, and lots of other people in the community (who I don’t know) that donated handmade twiddlemuffs, chawls and the blankets to the residents of Pine Meadow Nursing Home, as well as the Sharbot Lake Seniors Residence and the Adult Day Program. Your generosity will bring warmth to many seniors in our community. • Friday’s coffee break was a full house with host & hostess Lorie and Sandy. Nice to see Connie and Jim Haliday out enjoying coffee & goodies with friends. They moved away from here a few months ago. Nice to have them back for a visit. • Don’t forget next Friday Dec 14 there will be a video showing Snow Road approximately 30 years ago at Coffee Break. It’s about 1 hour long. • Sympathy to Shirley Beverly on the passing of her husband Lloyd Beverly. • Don’t forget Christmas dinner at Snow Road Snowmobile Club for Mississippi Free Methodist Church. 6pm on Dec. 14, $15.00. For tickets, Call Donna @ 278-2196.

the Housing and Homelessness System. But we need to know who else is out there that fits into this category of being a good landlord,” says Amanda Pantrey, Rural housing liaison worker at Southern Frontenac Community Services. “It is no secret that we experiencing a major housing shortage situation in the county, and finding landlords has proven to be difficult. This award is about trying to encourage existing landlords to work with us and keep people safe and at home in their own community,” adds Pantrey.

farmers markets, sales and fellowship wasn’t the only thing on the agenda. “We wanted to tap into the wisdom of people who’ve been doing this for awhile,” she said. “It’s an opportunity to learn the do’s and don’ts from people who’ve learned them already.” In order to accommodate this exchange in the marketplace of ideas, unlike most similar events, this one was free for the par participants. Also, they held it on a weekday. “Most of our participants are busy with other shows on the weekends, particularly at this time of year,” she said. “And, having it next door to the Festival of Trees didn’t hurt either. Many people coming for the festival stopped in here too.”
One of the things McGregor said people were exploring was the possibility of teaming up. “If I take half of your treasures to one show and you take half of mine to another, we cover two shows and double our exposure,” she said. And another thing that set this show apart was the presence of Frontenac Community Futures Development Corporation Director Anne Prichard. “Anne’s an excellent resource,” McGregor said. “It’s one thing to say how do you make your jams and jellies sell and quite another to find loans and grants to get your business off the ground.”

Tips for air travel- Informative Seminar at The Centre “Y
ou would not believe some of the things we get asked,” travel consultant Carrie Borer of Independent by Flight Centre told an audience at The Centre last Thursday in the first of what Rural Frontenac Community Services hopes will be a series of seminars. This one was called Tips for Air Travel. “We had clients going to Las Vegas who wanted a room with an ocean view, another lady who didn’t want a window seat on the airplane because she’d just had her hair done and a guy who wanted two rooms — ‘one for me and my wife and one for my girlfriend.’” Borer said she and colleague Eric Zierer are part of Flight Centre, “so we always have a wealth of information we can share.” First and foremost, she said, was to always carry your passport and a photocopy of your passport when you travel. “Before you leave home, take a photo with your phone of your passport, your insurance papers and itinerary,” she said. “You should always have a tag on your luggage but no name or address — people do hang around luggage carts to

Healthy Eating and Diabetes submitted by the Sharbot Lake Family Health team) hen a person is diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes, one of the biggest questions they may have is, “What do I eat?” Food is extremely important in the management of diabetes and in lowering the risk of heart attacks and strokes. According to the Diabetes Canada 2018 Clinical Practice Guidelines, nutrition therapy can help improve blood sugar control significantly and can also lower hospitalization rates due to complications of diabetes. There is a vast amount of information available on nutrition and diabetes, from solid research, to online literature and magazine articles, to your neighbour’s advice. It can be extremely difficult to make sense of all this confusing and often contradictory information. Years ago, when someone was diagnosed with diabetes, they were put on a restricted “diabetes diet” in which many foods were not allowed. Now, the key recommendations are to follow a healthy, balanced diet that includes all foods in moderation and the adoption of diabetes-friendly habits. These habits include choosing unprocessed or minimally processed foods such as fruits and vegetables, whole grains and legumes. Limiting the intake of added sugars such as candies and sweets, sugary beverages, fast food, and refined grains is also important. You should also select healthy fats such as unsaturated oils (e.g. olive oil), fatty fish, and nuts, and choose lean animal proteins such as lean cuts of meat, skinless poultry, and low-fat dairy. These eating recommendations are also included in diet patterns such as the Mediterranean diet or DASH diet, which have been shown to help manage diabetes and heart disease. When you have diabetes, how you eat is just as important as what you eat. To keep blood sugars stable, it is important to have regular meals through the day and healthy snacks as needed. Prepare meals at home often and eat together as a family. Keep distractions such as TV to a minimum and

and when you’ll be arriving and departing, she said. “If something happens, like a natural disaster or terrorist threat, the Canadians the embassy knows about will be first in line for evacuation,” she said. Also, taking expensive jewelry is a bad idea, she said. “When I go away, I don’t take jewelry, just dime store things and my wedding band,” she said. “And guys, if you’re going to propose while on vacation, do it with a cheap ring and give her the good one when you get back home.” Catherine Tyscick said RFCS is looking for others to hold similar seminars, particularly not-for-profit groups and not closed groups. You can contact her at 613-279-3151, ext. 201 if you might have a seminar.

focus on your food, eating mindfully. Ensure portions are appropriate and use the plate method to guide you: make ½ of your plate vegetables (at least 2 kinds), ¼ protein (meat, fish, legumes, soy etc.), and ¼ grain/starch (potato, pasta, rice, corn etc.), along with fruit and dairy on the side. People with diabetes may be tempted to limit their carbohydrate intake to help control their blood sugars. Carbohydrates, which include grains, starches, fruit, and dairy, break down into sugar/glucose in your body. Glucose is important for optimal functioning, especially the brain. While too many carbohydrates can cause blood sugars to go high, people with diabetes run the risk of having low blood sugar if they do not get enough. This can be especially dangerous for people on insulin or certain diabetes medications. Just as everyone is different, your nutrition and health needs and goals are different. For people with diabetes, the ideal healthy eating plan is one that is formulated specifically for you. Saman Shaikh, Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Educator at the Sharbot Lake Family Health Team can help you manage your nutrition goals, diet and diabetes so you can look after yourself in the best way possible. Did you know that the Sharbot Lake Family Health Team hosts a Good Food Box program? On a monthly basis you can access fruits and vegetables at a lower cost. A small box is $10 and a large box is $15. Orders can be placed at the Sharbot Lake Family Health Team reception desk by the first Thursday of each month. Pick up is on the 3rd Thursday of every month between 1-3pm. Please call 613-279-2100 for more information.

see who won’t be at home for awhile.” A business card inside your luggage is a good idea, she said. She said at $35 per bag each way for checked baggage, it pays to know how to pack your carry on. “I like to use packing cubes and roll up clothes in them,” she said. “Usually, if your carry on is too heavy, they’ll let you check it for free. “However, I can tell you something today that’ll be changed tomorrow.” One thing that probably won’t change is the advice to contact the Canadian embassy or consulate in whatever country you’re travelling to to let them know how long you’ll be there

CARd OF ThANkS The North Frontenac Children's christmas party and santa claus parade was a great success! thank you to all the businesses, community groups and individuals for their generous donations and the volunteers that helped organize this wonderful event for the children of our communities! Clarendon-Miller Volunteer Firefighter Association
at this time of gratitude and blessings, we would like to offer a heartfelt THANK YOU to the dedicated volunteers of the Northbrook clothing Boutique. they are the heart, soul and muscle behind this community endeavor, without these dedicated people, this year round outreach could not exist! again, thank you, enjoy a blessed and safe holiday. From the congregation of Land o'Lakes emmanuel united church, 108 Addington Road, Northbrook.
Dear Jeff, I am finding this hard. it has been so long since you have left us, but also feels like yesterday. I find myself dreaming of you more often these days and i am thankful for that. i’m not sure what you are trying to tell me but i love the fact that it is you. y you and me time that makes this a little easier, somehow it seems as though you aren’t gone. i still have close relationships with all of our friends together, and we talk about you often. w we all remember “that time” and end up laughing because it’s usually a prank you’ve played on someone and everyone at one point. w we all cherish these memories, and hard to say you are really gone when you live on in so many hearts and smiles. Our children Jeff. It’s hard for them and i’ve been trying so hard to tell them who you were and how much they are just like you! the pride you have in Brianna and Jayden. We have some pretty amazing kids Jeff. They miss you and love you and they know you would be proud of the people they have become. they hear stories about you and we laugh a lot, cry a little and we bring you into the room with us and for a small amount of time we miss you a little less... everyday is hard we just learn to cope a little easier. For many, this the 10th anniversary of you being gone. For Jayden, Brianna and I this is the 3650th anniversary of life without you. w we miss you Jeffy, so much. i’ll stop writing so i can sleep and spend just a little more time with you. always and forever Angie, Brianna and Jayden Hi Jeff, it’s been ten years since i’ve seen you. We used to catch up every Friday afternoon well into the evening, and now i talk to my goats instead. the feedback is much less helpful. i’d tell you all about the kids and what has been going on in our lives, but someone told me they saw you sitting at my counter one night, and the door you fixed for me still sticks. If I get cranky and pull really hard, it lets go and hits me. (i can almost hear you giggle) so, i know in my heart you are never that far. i wish i could go on and on like the old days, but my friend, you are not here to drag the real reason for sending you this letter. if you get this, you know why i’m writing. wish you were here. w Lots of Love, Gen

Frontenac Rentals seeks more growth in accommodations by Jeff Green llan Zahara has been living on 14 Island Lake for a number of years, and for rmost of that time he has been working in the e-learning sector in healthcare. “It has meant heading off to Toronto from time to time, and maintaining a professional profile outside of where I live. My goal now is to live and work in South Frontenac and Frontenac County, and that’s what got me into the accommodations field,” he said, in an interview from Sharbot Lake in early November. Zahara has been developing his new company, Frontenacrentals.com, for a couple of years.

“I saw that there is a lot of potential for waterfront property owners to take advantage of the global market for the lifestyle that some of us enjoy all the time around here, but don’t know where to start and what they need to do,” he said. Using himself as a bit of a test case, Zahara developed a 500 square foot cabin on 14 island lake, on his own property, which he rents out on a nightly basis at a premium price. He uses Airbnb as a booking service, and his cottage is booked from early spring until well into the fall, even into the winter, belying the traditional concern that it is only possible to rent out a cottage in the summer months.

is to cover all the bases, from staging a property the way a realtor might, to excellent photography and making sure that visitors are greeted, the house rules are clear and reasonable, and that everything is impeccably clean. "Homeowners may not realize they are sitting on tens of thousands of untapped revenue potential and that it can be done with very little effort or risk. They just need to ensure the whole experience, both online and on site, is white glove to appeal to a global market. When online shoppers see top reviews from people from many countries, the bookings flow in. It's all about knowing how to get those top reviews while ensuring your property and guests are in good hands." Zahara thinks that the development his business, and others, reflects a change in the tourism potential for Frontenac County in the near future, “I think that something is happening in our region. New businesses are coming up, visitors from all around the world are interested in coming. It is a good time for new people to step forward, and we are hoping our business can help that happen,” he said.

What’s Up in the Night Sky? – December 2018 by Fred Barrett his should be a great month for comet lovers. Comet 46P Wirtanen will be a naked eye sight in the sky. It’s small, just barely 1 Km in diameter, but its orbit will pass very close to Earth making it appear like a much bigger object. It’s already in the night sky but still at a distance where binoculars are necessary to view it. The gases that it is venting make it appear as large as the moon but its small size limits the amount of gases and dust it puts out and this low density keeps its brightness low. Thus you will need a small telescope or a pair of 7x50 binoculars for best views. Its closest approach will be on December 16th when it will be just 11.5 million km away – that’s only 30 times farther than the Moon. At this distance, it should easily be seen with eyes only despite its low brightness. Remember though that comets are surprisingly unpredictable and maybe an extra burp of gas and dust will give it an extra boost in brightness. It will be one of the 10 closest comets to pass Earth in recent times. It won’t be a great comet but certainly will be a fantastic sight. Between the 13th and 17th
T
it will be easily found between the bright red star Aldebaran, the eye of the Bull in the constellation Taurus, and the Pleiades. Refer to the attached sketch for the path of its orbit. This month we also have another treat! The Geminids make their annual appearance and are a truly spectacular shower that is viewable from December 4th to about the 17th. The peak is on the night of the 14th. There may be as many as 120 meteors per hour with the added bonus that there is a waxing non interfering crescent Moon which sets at 11pm leaving the sky free and clear. The radiant is high in the south just above Castor in the constellation Gemini. It’s best not to view them by looking at the radiant since the meteors are coming at you head on. This means that their trails will be very short. Instead, look about 30 to 60 degrees away from the radiant for nice long trails. Venus is a dazzling siht in dawn sky to the southeast. Down and to the left you will find Mercury and Jupiter. By the 21st, Jupiter will rise up to within 1 degree of Mercury. In the evening sky, Mars is quite obvious in the constellation Aquarius in the south. Saturn is
very low in the southwest. Monthly highlights: December 12th: The Moon is at apogee – 402,800 km. December 14th: The annual Geminid meteor shower peaks. The Moon passes 4 degrees south of Mars at 6pm. December 15th: First quarter Moon. December 21st: Winter solstice – 5:23 pm EST. Yahoo, the days start getting longer but don’t throw your long johns out yet! December 22nd: Full Moon. This Moon is known as the Full Cold Moon or the Full Long Nights Moon. In December the nights are cold and long. I spend my days hauling wood to my fireplace and I’m pretty muscle bound by the end of March! December 24th: The Moon is at perigee – 358,960 km. December 29th: Last quarter Moon. December 24th: The Moon is at perigee – farthest. 358,960 Km. December 29: Last Quarter Moon. That’s a wrap. Keep looking up! “The Beginner’s Observing Guide by Leo Enright is an invaluable companion for adventures in the sky. It also contains useful star charts. It can be ordered from the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada at www.
rasc.ca/publications. Let me know how your observing has gone this month, especially anything unusual. I enjoy the feedback. If you have any questions or suggestions you can contact me through this paper or email me at fred.barrett2@sympatico.ca . Clear Skies! Fred.

Performing for seniors nourishes this singer’s soul
by Catherine Reynolds ark McDonell loves his job. In coffee shop earlier in November, the talented father of two talks with awe about his work as a professional musician. “I don’t take it for granted,” he said, “I’m from a small town and I didn’t have a lot of money growing up. Now, I get to travel to different countries and perform. I’m 48 years old and I keep wondering when are people going to find out it’s all smoke and mirrors.” A professional singer and guitar player since high school, Mark is the face of AMBUSH, a popular band in Kingston and Frontenac County. Known for their new country sound, the band has played to sold-out crowds from coast-to-coast. “We’re very busy as a band,” he admits, referencing the band’s rise to fame in Canada since he arrived in Kingston approximately 20 years ago. “We’re going to Canadian Forces Station Alert next week to perform for the troops. We’ve done some crazy stuff.” Nowadays, Mark divides his time between performing
M
for big crowds and singing for smaller groups such as residents of retirement and long-term care homes. “It’s kind of interesting,” says Mark about performing at the homes with just an acoustic guitar and speaker. “The band has had a lot of big shows, performing in front of thousands of people. My performances at the retirement and long-term care homes are smaller and more intimate which is very rewarding. Music is a healer.” Growing up in a musical family, Mark began playing with his father for seniors in Perth when he was just 10 years old. He is now doing the same with his son. “The old folks love the kids. It’s like I’m not even in the room,” he says with a laugh about the reaction his son receives when he starts to play the drums. He also talked about the pleasure he derived when he played for his mother-in-law, Nancy Langs, when she was battling cancer. “A lot of patients would gather outside her hospital room when I performed for her,” he says quietly. “A lot of the classic country songs I’m singing now for residents is what I was singing for Nancy.”
PAGe 11
Before her death earlier this year, Nancy leaned down and told Mark, “Keep doing this.” Those three words left a lasting impression on him. “I find it low-key, but I leave the homes feeling more fulfilled as a musician,” he says with honesty. “It’s just giving back really.” Opening with the song, You Are My Sunshine, Mark talks about his enjoyment performing for residents & staff while accompanied by Nancy’s 78-year-old husband, Garry. “He’s my roadie,” says Mark with a chuckle about his father-in-law. “He would prefer to be out doing something, rather than being home alone. He loves to see the reaction of the people. He loves these shows. I have never gone into a home where the reaction hasn’t been fantastic.” A regular performer at dance halls across the region, Mark is hoping to play for more seniors in Frontenac County. “I try to make them smile and laugh,” he says kindly about his popular show for seniors. “I truly, truly enjoy it.” To reach Mark McDonell, please contact him at mark@ getambushed.com
