Central Frontenac cuts ties with CAO/Public Works Manager Jim Zimmerman By Craig Bakay Reporter
Relay for Life
The Central Frontenac Relay for Life once again filled the Parham Fairgrounds with people last weekend. But there’s more to it than just walking around the track. Pictured is Myah Martin, who won the Sock Golf event by a considerable margin after hitting upon a backward shot technique. Organizer Leslie Merrigan said the move to Saturday from Friday night solved a lot of organizational issues and will likely be adopted for subsequent years. But that will be up to the next chair as Merrigan is stepping down after four years in the position. The Relay is currently looking for a new chair if you’re interested. Photo/Craig Bakay
News — After about three months on the job, Jim Zimmerman is no longer the CAO/Public Works Manager for Central Frontenac Township. In a press release June 18, Mayor Frances Smith said: “after a special meeting of Council June 16, the employment contract with James (Jim) Zimmerman, CAO/Public Works Manager and the Township will be terminated effective immediately. “Mayor and Council wish him all the best in his future business endeavors.� Smith (as did all Council members) had no further comment on the matter saying only that “I refer you to the press release.� She did say that Council has authorized staff to advertise for a new public works manager. As to the position of CAO, Smith said “we don’t have to have a CAO.� That leaves Clerk/Planner Cathy MacMunn as the de facto chief of staff in Central Frontenac. Zimmerman was hired three months ago in a rather groundbreaking move of combining the positions of CAO and public works manager. He had been public works manager for Belleville after stints in Marathon and the private sector where he ran his own consulting firm. It isn’t known to anyone (other than the principles) what led to his departure in Belleville. In the interim, Kyle Labbett (waste manage-
ment supervisor) and Steve Reynolds (public works supervisor) will handle the public works duties until a manager is hired. Zimmerman’s departure is just the latest in the revolving door office that the top staff spot in Central Frontenac has become. Depending on how you want to look at it, the Township has had 10 Clerks and/or CAOs since the 2006 election. From amalgamation to January of 2007, Heather Fox was Clerk but left for health and family concerns. She was followed by John Duchene, who was hired on a temporary basis before giving way to Mark Hall, who left under somewhat mysterious circumstances. After Hall, Duchene was hired back, this time on a full-time basis. Duchene retired (he had come out of retirement from the conservation authority to take the job) in 2012 and was replaced by Shawn Trepenier. Trepenier also left under mysterious circumstances. Duchene (again) came back on a temporary basis before giving way to Larry Donaldson. But after a short time on the job, Donaldson left to take a job closer to his wife’s work near Perth. Donaldson was replaced by Steve Silver, again on a temporary basis until Zimmerman was hired. With Zimmerman gone, MacMunn now guides the ship.

News — Outwardly, Max Sedmihradsky would appear to be just like any other four-year-old boy with his infectious smile and Avengers paraphernalia. But Max has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), a degenerative disease that will affect his movement and
muscle control, meaning a wheelchair for teenagers and always proves fatal, usually as the sufferer reaches his early 20s. Needless to say, his parents Andrew and Kerri were devastated to learn the diagnosis. But, they weren’t about to take it lying down. So, the Ancaster family, along with a couple of grandparents, decided to raise

funds for research and Max’s Big Ride was born. Max and Andrew are taking a cargo bicycle donated by Urkai 600 kilometres along the TransCanada Trail, from Ottawa to Hamilton and all the funds they raise along the way will go to Jesse’s Journey, the charity that directs funds for DMD research. Their trip included stops in Sharbot Lake and Arden, but as Andrew explained, the trek to Sharbot Lake was the most ardent to date, owing to the torrential rains we’ve been experiencing. “The trail was washing out (just west of Maberly),” he said. “It was like a river and up to my socks. “And we were being eaten alive by deerflies.” About seven kilometres from Sharbot Lake, and facing a hellacious headwind, Andrew decided to turn back to the highway crossing and have his wife pick up Max in the van. Andrew however, did continue the bicycle trek on his own, albeit going down Hwy 7 rather than the trail for this particular portion. “We had Max under a canopy to keep the bugs out but the water was scary,” he said. “You couldn’t see the bottom.” For his part, Max seemed unfazed. Besides, he’s on an adventure with Dad. “I love the animals,” Max said. “We saw turtles laying eggs and chipmunks.” “He has a whistle he uses to attract birds,” said Andrew. “And we enjoyed the black and white butterflies and all those dragonflies.” In fact, they’ve enjoyed the entire trip so far. “When we started, we weren’t sure what to expect,” Andrew said. “But everywhere we stop, somebody does something nice for us and we’ve seen some absolutely lovely things.” They’ve planning to wrap up Max’s Big Ride Canada Day in Hamilton. But you can still contribute if you want and the easiest way is to visit www.maxsbigride.com. Andrew said all funds raised will go directly to research.

Reporter
News— Central Frontenac public works coordinator Kyle Labbett was somewhat prophetic at a special Council meeting June 18 to deal with the collapse of a structural palate culvert on Raymo Road June 16. “There’s still one culvert there but it could go too at any time,” Labbett said. At about 7 p.m. that night, it did. The culverts were not scheduled for replacement until 2018, according to the Ontario Structure Inspection Manual Report. “We’re looking at a major, major demolition of a culvert by Mother Nature,” said Mayor Frances Smith. At last week’s Council meeting, Labbett and public works supervisor Steve Reynolds laid it all out — Raymo Road will be closed for at least three months, probably more, and the cost will be in the range of $300,000 to $500,000. This means that residents south of the collapse will have to backtrack to Piccadilly before proceeding north to Parham or Sharbot Lake, with the reverse necessary for those north of the washout. Labbett and Reynolds presented Council with
several options, including a like-for-like solution with the Township purchasing the two 70-foot long, 12-foot diameter pipe, at a cost of about $68,000 each. Other options included various call for tender approaches, both with Township plans and/or contractors providing their own potential solutions. In any event, geotechnical studies will be required and Council authorized staff to have them done. Just what solution all the powers that be will have to be worked out still. Labbett suggesting having the Township’s engineering firm, Greer-Galloway, have a look at it to make suggestions. “We have to ask ourselves, are these two culverts the best answer?” said Smith. “We’ll hope to have some answers for our July 14 meeting and if the engineers say a Bailey Bridge is the way to go, then that’s what we’ll do. “I apologize to the residents of the area because I know this isn’t what they wanted to hear. We didn’t want to hear it either.” “It’s a balancing act between the need to do it right within the expediency timeframe,” said Coun. Brent Cameron. ••• Coun. Tom Dewey asked Council at its regular meeting
last week in Sharbot Lake if something could be done with the recycling bins at the Olden dump to help seniors and others with the stairs. “I’ve had a lot of seniors coming to me saying they can’t make it up the steps,” Dewey said. “Is there anything we can do?” Waste management supervisor Kyle Labbett said the decision to construct access to the bins as they are was made because excavation for the bins making them accessible at ground level was deemed too expensive. “But, site attendants are there to help,” he said. “Seniors can leave their recyclables at the bottom of the steps.” “Can we put up a sign telling people that?” said Mayor Frances Smith. “That might be a Pandora’s Box,” said Dewey. “It could be abused.” “I recommend putting on the sign that the practice is for seniors and/or the handicapped,” said Coun. Bill MacDonald. “We don’t want everybody leaving their recyclables at the bottom of the stairs.”

“He’s cleaned ditches with the Lions Club, driven floats in the Santa Claus and Canada Day parades, worked on the Caboose, worked on the Silver Lake Pow Wow earning an Eagle Feather. “And, he’s worked for years to keep the creek from St. George’s Lake to Sharbot Lake free of beaver dams.” “My theory is, old fishermen never die, they just smell that way,” said Hollywood. “This is personally meaningful for me,” said Coun. Brent Cameron before reading the citation for Joan and Roy Shepherd. “Music defines out lives.” And music has certainly defined the Shepherds, who began holding community jam sessions in Piccadilly Hall until they became so popular that they had to change venue to the larger Bedford Hall. The jams continue to this day (The Bedford Jam). Along the way, the Shepherds were instrumental in creating the Old Tyme Music Championships, a competitionbase showcase for local talent that has generated funds for local music initiatives such as the Hinchinbrooke (now GREC) School of Rock. Cameron called the Shepherds’ contribution a “cultural gift for the community.” “How proud we are to even be considered,” said Joan. “Anyone can have an idea but it takes a community to make it happen.”

Oso Rec members pitch two Sharbot Lake projects to Central Frontenac Council for our use when school isn’t on,” Willis said. “There’s also interest from the group wanting to start up lacrosse. “There are already lights there and there’s interest in seniors skating, dances and basketball too.” But, multi-use aside, Willis said his motivation is still hockey. “I would say that two-thirds of the people in this Township can’t afford organized hockey,” he said. “This would help with that and

News — Recreational facilities in Sharbot Lake could expand significantly if a couple of projects presented by the Oso Rec Committee come to fruition. The committee sent representatives to Central Frontenac Council’s regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake with two proposals. First up was committee member Dave Willis who said: “we’re here to see if we can get a new rink in Sharbot Lake.” Willis said they received a donation of $10,000 from the Sharbot Lake Snow Riders some time ago for the project. “We used some of it to buy boards, which came complete with glass,” Willis said. “Right now, they’re being stored in Arden. “The boards cost us $3,000 but they have a $100,000 value. It did cost us some money for shipping and we have about $5,200 left.” He said the original plan was for an Olympic sized rink but they’ve scaled that back considerably. They’ve considered numerous locations but have finally settled on the Oliver Scott Memorial Ball Field, adjacent to the Granite Ridge Education Centre. “The rink would serve some of Visit our their programs well and they’ve said their parking area is available

Napanee company aims take manufacturing of pharmaceutical marijuana to the next level News – Nearly half a million Canadians have been approved to use medicinal marijuana to manage a variety of medical issues, but due to a continuously shifting and foggy regulatory framework, these drugs aren’t always consistent. ABcann hopes to change that. ABcann Medicinals Inc. is an approved Licensed Producer (LP) under the Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR). The company is located in Napanee and over the past year they have been growing medicinal marijuana in a new way. “A big part of this process and method is to remove the stigmatism of the recreational market and emphasize that this plant does have medicinal properties,” said Michael Hofmann, horticulturalist and facility manager at ABcann. “There is a place for this plant in the medicinal realm and we want to make it as medicinal as possible and give people faith in the product.” The facility was retrofit exclusively for the production of medicinal marijuana and enforces stringent cleanliness policies including on site showers for staff, air filtration systems designed with the help of NASA and air pressured decontamination areas. “We have developed the facility like an indoor greenhouse and it is all waterproof with vapour barrier walls and vinyl ceiling tiles,” explained Hofmann. “We don’t use pesticides or chemicals and every part of our procedure is run through a main computer so it can be replicated later.” ABcann’s goal is to create a product that is reliable and is produced in an organic and holistic way. They say their focus is on precision, quality control and good

At peak the facility consistent product possible. after batch.” Davis says the goal is to produce a product that is as consistent as acetaminophen: “A lot of engineering has gone into this process and we want to build the process right. We are here for the long term and that makes a big difference in terms of our approach to the product.” The facility currently houses 14 different genetic strains of marijuana and those were originally derived from seeds imported from Holland. The company would eventually like to develop their own strands, but plant growth is still in the testing phase at this point. “This is all new territory, “ said Hofmann. “The medicinal marijuana industry is emerging and it has never really existed, but now we have a chance to design and create the industry and it has given us a chance to create this facility.” The facility currently employs 27 full-time staff members and is (l-r) Geoff Davis, chief operations officer for ABcann and Michael Hofmann, Horticulturalist and already looking to expand.

Editorial
In Our Opinion
The ugliness of social media ‘challenges’
The more things change, the more they stay the same: the 10 best things about summer 10 — Ice Cream. Yeah, it’s still as good as it ever was. And guess what, when you get older, nobody tells you that you can’t have two scoops. 9 — Music Outdoors. There’s just something about music outdoors, whether it’s a formal concert or just sittin’ on your porch pickin’ the blues. 8 — Doing Nothing. While doing absolutely nothing in the winter is an enjoyable experience too, in the summer, it seems to be easier to get away with. Lying on a beach, in a hammock, fishing . . . it’s all good. 7 — The Night Sky. Looking up at the stars on a clear summer night (assuming the bugs cooperate) has always been one of my favourite things. My mind can go off in a dozen different directions, all equally compelling. 6 — Black Caps. You know the ones — those little black raspberries that grow wild in the right conditions. I like ’em on toast with peanut butter. You mush ’em all into the peanut butter after it’s spread on Vice the President toast. & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@perfprint.ca 5 — No Snow. I hate shoveling snow.

(don’t blink, it’ll be over soon enough). One might expect that as we age, our likes, dislikes and interests would change. Well, yes, they do to a certain extent, but not quite as much as some would have you believe. Take summer, for example. While it’s true that the “no school” one loses its lustre the further detached we become from our last class, and a trip to the beach becomes more about going for a swim than looking at girls in bikinis, some things remain equally as pleasurable as they were in our younger days — some even more so. So, here’s a list of the 10 best things about summer, in no real particular order, the numbers are just so drummers don’t get confused.

I used to own a Jeep and didn’t worry so much but last winter my little station wagon, while being exponentially better than the Jeep on gas, got stuck in my driveway three times. 4 — Fireflies. C’mon, admit you think they’re cool too. It’s really great when you can point them out to kids, or better yet, when the kids point them out to you. 3 — Summer Clothes. First of all, there’s no need for long johns. Second of all, I may have to re-think that previous statement about girls in bikinis. 2 — Swimming Holes. With all due respect to people who’ve invested in their pools and the good civic administrations that provide public pools, let’s face it — kids pee in pools.

Editorial – Last year, the ALS ice bucket challenge showed just how effective the internet and social media can be when it comes to mass fundraising and awareness challenges, but recent ‘challenges’ are showing that this impact can also be harmful, especially when it comes to body image. The ‘Belly Button’ and ‘Collarbone’ challenges began in early June in China and are quickly spreading across Twitter and Instagram around the world. They are the latest bizarre trends on social media and they challenge users to try and touch their belly buttons by reaching behind their back and around their waist or seeing how many coins they can balance on their collarbones. The challenges are meant to show off a fit figure, according to users who complete them successfully, but medical experts are concerned the challenges are promoting harmful misconceptions about health and weight that could promote unhealthy eating. More and more, we are dealing with body image issues on a regular basis. We are surrounded by airbrushed models, impossibly perfect celebrities and now millions of social media users showing off their ‘health’ by posting successful attempts at these challenges. When does it become too much? Eating disorders are on the rise, especially when it comes to impressionable teenagers who are easily influenced by social media. Campaigns like this aren’t helping. We know that simply stopping challenges like this is not enough. There needs to be a societal shift away from unrealistic views of what a healthy body image is and that starts with the choices we all make on a daily basis. If we choose not to pay attention or participate in ‘challenges’ like these then they simply won’t gain enough steam to go viral. They won’t have the power that they need to influence others. But until that day comes we all need to realize that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes and these challenges simply show how flexible your arms are, how different your bone structure is and how absurd the internet can be.

Ann-Marie MacDonald helps kick off seventh annual Kingston WritersFest By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – “Kingston is a great city filled with people who love to read and talk about books,” said Ann-Marie MacDonald; the famous Canadian author visited Kingston on June 25 and helped kick off this year’s WritersFest at the Agnes Etherington Art Centre. MacDonald spent part of her childhood in Kingston and although she loves the city, she had yet to be part of WritersFest. “I was happy to be invited to do this event,” she said. “It is nice meeting readers and engaging with them.” Reader engagement is what WritersFest is all about and the festival, now in its seventh year, is packed with author events, workshops and some new features this year. One major change is the timing of this year’s kick off event, which is usually held in late August. “We wanted to give people earlier access to the tickets and we had the opportunity to do this event with Ann-Marie and we jumped on it,” said artistic director Barbara Bell. “We also thought it would be nice to have this event before everyone goes away for summer.” The festival hopes to attract a wider audience this year, especially from the francophone community. Last year, WritersFest incorporated one French event; it proved to be quite popular so this year they hope similar events will also be successful. “We have several really prominent French-Canadian authors coming out,” said Bell. “We hope this will appeal to the francophone communities around Kingston, but also to families who are maybe here with the military or have kids in French immersion schools.” The festival is also welcoming two very well-known Canadian chefs this year; Michael Smith and Jamie Kennedy will be chatting about their most recent books and Kennedy will also be doing a dinner event for festival goers. “We’ve expanded into some more in depth food events,” said Bell. “Michael will be talking about sustainability and teaching your kids about healthy food and making food preparation a family activity. I think that will appeal to a lot of people.” Of course there will also be some prominent authors coming in for reading events and workshops and this years lineup includes Patrick DeWitt, Nino Ricci,
Jane Urquhart, Roch Carrier, Andrew Nikiforuk, Diane Ackerman, and headliner Lawrence Hill. “We are so excited to have Lawrence coming this year,” said Bell. “He is a prominent writer and now with Book of Negroes as a television event he has really become more well known. He also has a new book he’ll be discussing.” Book discussions and readings are really the heart of Kingston WritersFest and for authors like MacDonald, readings are a chance to share moments with readers. “Everyone loves to be told a story and to be read to. I love sharing that with people, especially at a live event with a room full of people,” she said. “I work really hard on the pieces and then I get to hear it through fresh ears and that is really nourishing for me.” With an earlier launch also comes earlier access to tickets for WritersFest and Bell hopes to see a great turnout again this year. “We have lots of non-fiction events as well as fiction events and we really try to stay current each year. I think there is something for everyone.” Kingston WritersFest takes place September 23 - 27. For a full line-up and to purchase tickets visit www.kingston-

Kingston rowers excited to compete in front of family and friends at Pan Am Games By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Pan Am Games – For Kingston rowers Rob Gibson, Nicolas Pratt and Will Crothers, competing at a high level is nothing new, but competing in the same province they grew up in is. This summer, the three rowers will compete in various events at the Pan Am Games and while the races are sure to be challenging, they are all looking forward to being on home soil. “I am excited to be a part of the squad,” said Gibson, 29. He explained that as a youth he spent a lot of time on the St. Catherines course where the Pan Am racing will be held. “Competing in Canada was a huge draw for me when I was debating to continue with rowing after the London 2012 Olympics.” Gibson started his rowing career at 14 and got involved in his high school (Regi) team soon after. He has worked hard to become an accomplished rower and recently won a silver medal at the London Olympics in 2012 along with fellow Kingstonian Will Crothers. Gibson expects Pan Am will be similar to the Olympics in terms of the level of racing and he looks forward to the competition “Pan Am is like a mini Olympics,” he said. “The games will really help me and my team members get focused and prepare for the World Championships this August in France, which is also the Olympic qualifying regatta.” Gibson is also competing in the men’s single scull race at the games, something he has never competed in internationally before. “I’m sure that will be a learning experience for me which I hope will serve me well at the World Championships and hopefully the Olympics next summer,” he said. “It’s a lot of pressure, but I’m looking forward to
having family and friends around for support.” Nicolas Pratt is also looking forward to having the support of family and friends around as he competes in the lightweight men’s four competition. Pratt started rowing in Grade 9 at KCVI and continued throughout university. He went on to complete a master’s in engineering and took a break from rowing, but when the Pan Am Games were announced he was drawn back in. “While I was working as an engineer some proposals began crossing my desk regarding projects from facilities that were being built for the games. I distinctly remember thinking about whether I wanted to be involved in the games in terms of construction or in them as an athlete and my choice became pretty clear.” Like Gibson, Pratt looks forward to seeing his family and friends on the sidelines at the games: “Rowing is a sport where the majority of our competitions are in Eu- Kingston native Rob Gibson will be competing in rope. While people around you are men’s quadruple sculls and men’s single scull at the certainly aware of the training that upcoming Pan Am games. Photo/ Katie Steenman we put in at home, it is often hard to connect a tangible goal or experience to which all this work relates.” Like many athletes, Pratt is looking forward to the whole Pan Am experience, but he also hopes to take a win and some knowledge away with him. “That is what we are there to do plain and simple,” he said. “I just want to make the most of the experience and learn from each race as we progress. Over the course of a year we will only have a handful of major competitions so it is crucial that www.kingstonregion.com/kingstonregion-news/ we learn as much as possible from each.” The Pan Am Games take place in Toronto from July 10-26. Rowing events take place July 11-15. For more information visit www.toronto2015.org

Tune-Up Tips
www.ddautoservice.ca
Some basic, routine maintenance will ensure your vehicle stays in superb shape. By Christine Henderson Summertime – and the fun-in-the-sun road trips that go hand-in-hand with the solstice – is now upon us. But as you make your summer getaway plans, don’t neglect to dispense a little tender loving care on your vehicle. And the best way to get your set of wheels ready for the road is by treating it to a tune-up. It’s not news that today’s automotive technology is far more advanced than the technology of yesterdecade. The services required to keep today’s modern engines humming are also far more advanced. Having a technician inspect your vehicle before embarking upon a road trip could very well ensure your holiday remains heavenly rather than hellacious. There are various components under the hood and beyond that should be inspected. For starters, make certain to have a general inspection done of the entire vehicle, including the ignition system, tires, and brakes. Also make sure the fluid services are addressed. This is also a good time to replace any worn hoses and drive belts. Few motorists overlook having their engine oil and filter changed. But many neglect to change their other fluids. Brake fluid flushes are important because the fluid can become contaminated and not compress properly over time. Transmission fluid is also important because, much like engine oil, it is designed to keep the inner workings of the transmission lubricated. It breaks down over time, thereby leaving your transmission vulnerable to overheating and failure. If your fluids don’t need to be changed, then ensure they are topped up before heading out.
The good news is that tune-ups are not needed nearly as often on today’s modern car as they were on carbureted vehicles. While adjustments were once required at least twice yearly, most vehicles only require a minor tune-up once a year. A major tune-up is required every couple of years, depending on how many kilometers you drive yearly. Your technician will be checking things like spark plugs, ignition wires, filters, and timing. Spark plugs and ignition wires are responsible or carrying electricity from the ignition coil to the cylinder. When worn, these parts must be replaces. Wires break down over time, causing electricity to escape.

Most manufacturers now claim that you can drive for 160,000 km before requiring new spark plugs. But other ignition components should be replaced prior to that, including ignition wires, the PCV valve, and the fuel filter. Be sure to check your owner’s manual. Most vehicles have a fuel filter that needs to be replaced. This is a great time for the fuel injection to be flushed of any carbon particles that may damage or clog the fuel injectors and rail. Fuel injectors work by spraying a fine mist of fuel into the combustion chamber, and can easily become clogged or damaged by carbon. Carbon can gradually build within the engine causing a host of problems. A fuel injection service will flush this carbon from the engine, eliminating potential blockages. Nobody wants to spend a single minute of their holidays stranded at a repair centre. Preparing for the worst before you leave will minimize the likelihood of your summer turning into a bummer.

Turtle crossing reach maturity, with most females not breeding until they are 17-20 years old. The female deposits 3050 eggs in a nest she digs in early summer in an area that has loose sandy soils, or gravel, and gets plenty of light. Since preferred nesting spots tend to be on the side of roads, the biggest single threat to adult snapping turtles are cars. Snapping turtles start out about
By Rob Mooy
It’s nesting season for turtles in Ontario. To warn motorists driving along Princess Street over the Collins Creek wetlands, near Westbrook, someone posted this sign to “watch for Berta the Turtle.” The most common turtles seen nesting along the roadside are snapping turtles. Snappers take a long time to
the size of a quarter emerging from their eggs in approximately 80 to 90 days (August through October). They have been known to live up to 100 years. An interesting fact is these turtles have temperature-dependent sex determination. Eggs maintained at 68°F produce only females; eggs maintained at 70-72°F produce both male and female turtles; and those incubated at 73-75°F
produce only males. Be careful helping a snapping turtle across the road – keep a safe distance from its head as it can reach past its midpoint if it feels threatened. You can coax a snapper across the road using a shovel or a board, or by allowing it to bite a long stick and pulling it gently across the road. If you must pick up a snapper by hand, grab the back of its shell with one
hand, and slide your other hand underneath between its hind legs. Snappers are very strong and will squirm and thrash their hind legs, so hold on tightly. Never pick up a turtle by the tail, which could damage its spine. If you should come upon an injured snapper or other species of turtle, they can be taken to Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre in Napanee. www. sandypineswildlife.org.

Events â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Since 1994, the Waterside Summer Series has worked to bring top-notch classical performers to Amherst Island each summer and this year is no different. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year we have a great mix of returning performers and brand new acts,â&#x20AC;? said artistic director for the yearly series, Beverley Harris. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is my tenth year as director and I hope to make it a great success again.â&#x20AC;? In that ten years, Harris has transformed the Waterside Summer Series; previously it asked musicians to play as a favour and the organization couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t af-
ford to pay much to entice performers; now, agents and musicians contact Harris to see if she has room for their acts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got serious about fundraising when I took over,â&#x20AC;? said Harris, explaining that they became part of the Loyalist Township Parks and Recreation department and now issue charitable receipts for donations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have been very successful at attracting high level musicians and they keep coming back.â&#x20AC;? Harris attributes some of the success to the welcoming and enthusiastic atmosphere that Waterside creates. Each concert is held at St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Presbyterian Church on the island and maximum capacity is around 150 people. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We like to call it an up close and personal experi-

ence and audience members do get an opportunity to meet the performers after,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We even hold an after performance reception for sponsors and musicians and they love that.â&#x20AC;? This summer, Waterside is welcoming musicians from Vienna, New Zealand, the United States and some local acts too. The first concert takes place on July 4 and welcomes the Vienna Piano Trio to the area for the first time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They come from Vienna each summer to do a North American Tour and they usually stick to the United States, but this year they wanted to add some Canadian shows,â&#x20AC;? said Harris. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are really excited to see them.â&#x20AC;? Concerts continue throughout July and August and feature a string quartet, clarinettist, soprano singer, a couple of pianists and, for the first time, a flutist, Susan Hoeppner, who will be playing with an ensemble called Made in Canada. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be a little different, but I am sure it will be fantastic,â&#x20AC;? Harris said. Harris loves organizing the series so much that she even invites performers to her home for a barbeque the evening before they perform. She likes to get to know them a bit more and she hopes that the personal touches encourage performers to come back. The series has become a part of summer for Islanders and those who frequent Waterside, but sadly so have ferry delays and headaches, especially this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are asking people to carpool and we will also have vans that belong to people on the island that can transport anyone who wishes to walk on the ferry to

the venue,â&#x20AC;? said Harvey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let the ferry stop us and we encourage people to come out and see what Waterside has to offer. They wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be disappointed.â&#x20AC;? Each concert begins at 7:15 p.m. at St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Presbyterian Church, just south of Stella. Tickets cost $35 and include refreshments served during the 20-minute intermission. For more information visit http://www. watersidemusic.ca/

The morning shave became a captivating event

his cheeks. It seemed to take forever to complete one sweep, and I silently wondered if men shaved differently because they came from England. Father would finish, swish off his razor in the basin of hot water, dry it on the huck roller towel, fold it in two, place it carefully in its felt lined box, and set it on the window sill where it stayed until the next morning. After Tommy had made several slow and calculated sweeps, I would see little pinheads of blood appear. And every time that happened, Tommy would lean into the mirror and look as if he had never laid eyes on his own face before in his life. I was so fascinated I wouldn’t have moved from the spot if the house caught on fire. And every time he sprung a leak (as my brother Emerson took to calling his razor nicks), Tommy would stop shaving, tear a smidgen of newspaper off a page he had at the ready, and carefully place it over the wound. By the time he was finished shaving, his face looked like lace tablecloth, with all these little pieces of paper stuck to his cheeks. All the time he would be
cursing the razor. By that time Father would be settled in at the head of the table digging into his fried potatoes and salt pork. And every time he saw Tommy take another piece out of his face, Father would wince and screw up his face as he himself had been inflicted. Well, this went on for ages after Tommy had become part of our household. And finally Father made a gesture that was completely against his principles. He thought a man’s razor strap was as personal as his long underwear. No one touched it but the man to whom it belonged. But one day Father could stand it no longer. There stood Tommy in front of the mirror after a particularly torturous morning of lacerations with these dabs of newspaper stuck all over his face. Father rose from his

breakfast, went to Tommy, took the razor from his hands, rinsed it off, and began slapping it up and down on the strap. I thought he was going to take it from its moorings. He handed it back to Tommy and said, “now let’s hope that’s the last of the wounding. I guess you’ll have to use the strap instead of the whit stone. Can’t have you bleeding to death every morning.” It was the end of my fascination with Tommy and his daily shaves. And it was the start of a new relationship between him and my Father. After all, now they shared a razor strap! Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Tommy Rohr was that wonderful farm hand who wandered in off the tracks one day. He was a home boy from England, and begging for a job, he said he would work for nothing more than a bed to sleep on and three meals a day. He ended up with a couch in one corner of the back kitchen, his belongings neatly packed underneath, and with a guarantee of a flat fifty of Player’s cigarettes from Briscoe’s General Store every week as payment for his labours. It was a long time before Father was able to afford to offer him a few dollars a month. But Tommy Rohr seemed pleased with the arrangement. As he often said, he didn’t need much else. He had a thin, dark skinned, leathery kind of face, and I guess had he allowed it to grow would have had a black beard to match his jet hair. But all the time Tommy lived with us, he was clean-shaven and meticulous about his appearance...which was the only reason he was allowed to have that first meal at our kitchen table when he wandered in off the tracks. Mother would not tolerate anything but the cleanest of hands, and a face free from whiskers. Every morning, Tommy would take his place beside Father at the washbasin on the bench beside the back door. A small wood framed mirror hung rakishly from a nail, and Father’s razor strap was right beside it. Tommy and
Father shared the basin of hot water and the mirror, but for Father that is where his hospitality ended. No one was allowed to use his razor strap... not even Tommy Rohr. And so poor Tommy would use a whit stone to sharpen his black handled razor about once a week. But alas, the whit stone did little to keep the blade keen enough for a clean shave. I liked to stand beside Tommy in the mornings and watch this ritual of his shaving beside Father. There was never a word spoken between the two men. This was serious business... this morning shave...no time for frivolities. Father would be done in jig time. He would give his razor a dozen or more swipes on his strap, and then he would get down to the serious business at hand. Tommy on the other hand, after lathering his face with the homemade bar of soap, and not having had the benefit of the strap, would take much longer. I would stand there entranced as Tommy dragged the dull razor over

Dealerships evolve to suit online shopping consumer trends
There is no doubt that the internet has made its impact on auto shopping. More and more consumers now complete a great majority of their research regarding a new vehicle
acquisition online. However, unlike the rest of the goods and services retail sector, automotive retailers have experienced more challenges in adapting to the virtual world. Fortunately dealerships, both large and small, have adapted with interactive websites, rapid electronic responses to shopper inquiries, and online inventories that let their customers shop from the comfort of their home or office. There are even pioneers that are setting new standards in the car shopping experience. Consider Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, the makers of high performance electric cars.

He has battled the established industry and various U.S. state legislators and now is able to sell directly to consumers. This may not seem like much compared to how the rest of the manufacturer/retail world works, but in the automotive arena it is a very big thing indeed. One of the most glaring problems with online shopping is you don’t get the chance to touch, feel, smell, and/or operate the product you’re researching. While this isn’t usually a big drawback with regards to many household, personal, office, or recreational products; it can be a deal-breaker with vehicles. Of all the customers, family members, and friends I’ve known over the years, I can only think of one who didn’t need to road-test a vehicle before buying it. This professional usually stuck to the same manufacturer and when I pressed him on his unusual shopping habits, he replied, “Why do I need to drive it? It’s new. Of course it’s going to be smooth, quiet, and trouble-free!” But for the rest of us, we need to see how we fit in the driver’s seat. How roomy it is for our regular passengers. How easy or hard it is to get things in and out of the cargo area. How it handles on the highway and how easy or hard it is to park. How will it fit in our garage (if at all)? For first-time buyers there is often a large and unpleasant disconnect when they first visit a dealership expecting to just hop in the model(s) of their choice and take a spin. It’s not that retailers don’t like to show off and demonstrate their products with all the latest in technology and safety features; they really do. But even with all the changes and evolution in the auto buying process there are some factors that haven’t changed. Walk up to a total stranger and ask if he or she will let you take a spin in their $35K sedan in exchange for letting them photocopy your driver’s license and you can pretty much predict their response. Dealers are in the same boat except they have policies and processes in place to accommodate roadtests. First an employee will take the time to review the vehicle’s operating characteristics on site before heading out for a drive. Then that person will accompany you on your ride, usually in the driver’s seat on the way out, then allowing you the controls on the way back. Depending on your knowledge of the
vehicle and how much driving time you need for your research; this can easily take more than an hour. This employee is usually paid by commission on sales so if you indicate you aren’t anywhere near the decision point in your trek, but are just still in the research phase, then you shouldn’t be surprised if you get less than an extremely cooperative exchange. None of this takes into account the fuel expended, the risk of damage to the vehicle nor any distance that may be accumulated on the odometer. Most carmakers have a policy that restricts total travelled distance on a new vehicle to less than 150 km on average. After that it must be registered as a demonstrator starting its warranty clock ticking and reducing its value. So what’s a consumer to do? Many still hold onto the perception of dealerships as a high-pressure place to shop and there are stores that live up to this image. But there are also retailers that do their best to take the pressure and hype out of the sales process. How to find them? Ask friends, co-workers, or family members. Call a few stores and speak to a sales consultant; you can usually get an idea of how you’ll be treated in person after a short chat. Check out local rental agencies to see if they carry the make and model you’re researching. Ask friends or neighbours if they’ll take you for a spin in their new vehicle (if it’s one you’re interested in), or you can be brave and ask that stranger. On Saturday, July 4 th the Annual Rockland Ford Poker Run hits the road once again raising funds for breast cancer research. It will start at Rockland Ford and is open to Ford vehicles only. Check the Poker Run website for regular updates at www.fordclassicspokerrun.ca.
