Sharing IT and GIS services first on CAOs committee’s list, says Central CAO By Craig Bakay Reporter

News — A report from the CAOs committee in Frontenac County on sharing services has been making the rounds of municipal councils and last week in Sharbot Lake, it was Central Frontenac’s turn to have a look at it at Council’s regular meeting. Central CAO Jim Zimmerman didn’t really have much input to the report, having only come on the job a month ago. He did however have a few comments. “Schedule A (an initial list of 68 potential areas where services could be combined) is the key takeaway for me,” Zimmerman said. “But also important is that each municipality has the option to opt in or opt out. “We could opt out in one area but retain participation in other areas.” “Has there been any discussion as to how many municipalities would be necessary to make it viable?” said Coun. Brent Cameron. “If there are five bodies around the table and only one opts in, then the economics of it obviously aren’t viable,” Zimmerman said. “But there are some centralized services where a township might bear the full costs The Sydenham Golden Eagles defeated the visiting Ernestown Secondary School Eagles 30-5 in KASSAA for something that shows up on the County’s girls’ rugby on April 30. [Above] Sian Lloyd covers some ground for the Golden Eagles during Sydenham’s budget.” Coun. Bill MacDonald wondered if the game against Ernestown. Photo/John Harman report went far enough.

Battle of the birds

“This doesn’t include the City of Kingston,” MacDonald said. “I wonder if some areas of it could be expanded.” “I think there’s an aspect of ‘crawl before you walk,’ to this,” said Zimmerman. “Most of the things, all townships provide but some of the things only some townships provide.” Mayor Frances Smith suggested that perhaps councils might need to set aside some time to look at the proposals from the CAOs. “I think we need to go into this well educated,” she said. “I would like to set aside half a day to discuss how this might work.” “I think the CAOs are looking to work on each element and then present a coherent plan,” Zimmerman said. “There has been some discussion on IT and GIS.” “Do you think we’d be better to wait until we have some concrete numbers?” said Smith. “I think that’s the way the CAOs are going,” said Zimmerman. “If something is not the way this municipality wants to go, then I could pass that on. “And I think that would change the discussions going on currently.” Zimmerman said the next thing Council would see from him on the CAOs committee will be a report on IT and GIS. “That’s what some people are moving towards,” he said. “If that’s not what you want, then let me know before we move too far down that road.”

An open letter to our fans, from the Ottawa Senators What a ride! The last two - plus months have been an incredible run, as our team came together to overcome the greatest deficit in NHL history to qualify for the playoffs. This year, we had a major loss within our family and fought battles both on and off the ice. We stuck together and persevered knowing we could achieve our goals. In February, when the odds were stacked against us, this team started to roll. When we starte d to win, we could feel that something special was happening. We couldn’t put our finger on it at the time, but knew it was different. We know you felt it too – we know this because once the team started the run, you wouldn’t let us quit. You were loud and supportive at home. You filled Canadian Tire Centre during the team’s road games, and the crowd waiting for us at the airport when we arrive d from Philadelphia blew us away. You changed the mood of the entire city. You pushe d us to keep going when the odds were against us and we responded. Game 6 may not have gone our way, but the ovation you gave us before we left the ice was one of the most incredible moments of the entire season. As we leave to go our separate ways for the summer, we want you to know this – there has never been a Senators team more excited for next year. Thank you, fans! Sincerely, Your 2014-15 Ottawa Senators

FCFDC director thanks municipality for its continued support News — “I’m here to thank Council members and staff for their past support and to ask that they continue to actively refer individuals and businesses to the Frontenac Community Futures Development Corporation (FCFDC) should you think they may benefit from our programs and services,” FCFDC Executive Director Anne Prichard told Central Frontenac Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. In particular, she said, they’re looking to support tourism, particularly year-round tourism. “Sometimes, that’s just a matter of finding ways to get heat to their operations,” she said. “We’re also very interested in food and beverage businesses, things such as micro-breweries and specialty food creators like Seed to Sausage.” The FCFDC began in 2004 when it opened its first office in Harrowsmith (they have since moved up Road 38 to the business plaza strip mall). It is a not-forprofit corporation run by a volunteer board of directors and funded by the Federal Development Agency of Southern Ontario (FedDev).

“Our mission is to stimulate community and economic development throughout the Frontenacs — aptly expressed by the tag line ‘building businesses … growing communities,’” Prichard said. The FCFDC offers several services, whether the constituent is considering starting a small business in the Frontenacs, seeking advice or financing for an existing business or requiring assistance for a community project, she said, including: • business information and counseling at no cost • business workshops • commercial loans • interest-free loans (for eligible commercial projects and subject to available financing) • community economic development • Eastern Ontario Development Program “The FCFDC offers flexible commercial financing up to $250,000 for new or existing businesses in the County of Frontenac when financing from traditional lenders is not available,” she said. “The organization also offers interestfree loans for the development of vacant or underutilized commercial

properties that have the potential to create or maintain employment. “As well, façade improvements on commercial/retail properties located in hamlets are eligible.” Two newer programs include Futurpreneur Canada, which supports young entrepreneurs with up to $45,000 in financing and an expert business mentor for up to two years and Launch Lab’s Business Mentorship Program,

where ‘entrepreneurs in residence’ offer mentoring and industry experts at no cost. They also help promote local businesses through social media (their website www.frontenaccfdc. com, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube) as well as a newsletter distributed quarterly through a local newspaper. Coun. Bill MacDonald asked where their funding comes from

We’ve Caught The Moment Now You Can Keep The Memory

and if it’s permanent. “Our funding is all federal and our current contract runs until 2018,” Prichard said. “I’d like to thank you on behalf of the businesses and workers in the County,” said Mayor Frances Smith. “Word of mouth is how things happen in the country.”

Fashionable fundraising: Harrowsmith Women’s Institute looks at fashions of decades past mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – Poodle skirts, bell bottoms, fur coats and vintage wedding dresses – these were just a few of the styles on display at the Harrowsmith Women’s Institute (WI) Vintage Fashion Show on April 26; hundreds of guests looked on as over 60 outfits representing fashions from the 1920s to 1970s were modeled - and it was all for a good cause. “We put this fundraiser together as a sort of celebration of our 90th anniversary,” said Harrowsmith WI president Karen Nickel. “We originally made poster boards representing the decades and then we came up with the idea of expanding that to a fashion show and here we are.” The Federation of Women’s Institutes of Ontario began in February of 1897 as a group for wives of farmers to gather and socialize. The WI in Harrowsmith started in March of 1924 and with that in mind, the group wanted to start with fashions from that decade. “Many of the outfits have been very special memories for WI members and their friends,” explained Nickel.

“Most of them are treasured fashions or accessories that belonged to a loved one and some were actually worn by members in their youth. It was so amazing to see them all come together.” Nickel thought that it would be a challenge to find so many different fashions, but she was overwhelmed by the number of items that came out of storage and attics and were donated by community members. “It was so great to see the whole group come together. I loved getting to know all of the families and friends and of course seeing all of the fashions.” The event took place at St. Paul’s Church in Harrowsmith and proceeds from the event went to New Leaf Link (NeLL), a non-profit charitable organization that supports the continuing education and meaningful occupation of youth and adults with developmental disabilities such as autism spectrum conditions and Down syndrome. The group operates locally in South Frontenac and they rely solely on community fundraisers to run their programs. “We are a small but mighty group of dedicated parents,” said Julie Hunt, a director for the group and a parent

of one of the participants. “We really appreciate the support. We keep seeing an increase in clients year after year so the funds are really important to keep it all going. These funds will go a long way.” Members of New Leaf Link were also among the 40 people who modeled throughout the fashion show alongside WI members, friends and family. All worked to make the event a success and before the show started more than 150 tickets had been sold, helping to raise $1,500 for NeLL. Nickel was happy to see such an amazing turnout and she hopes that the WI can do something similar next year. “The show was so much fun and we’d love to do something like this again, we just have to sit down and see what’s next,” she said. “I’m not Jessalyn Wagar, models a wedding dress that was worn in 1947. The sure we can top this.” Nickel also encourages more dress was originally worn by Harrowsmith WI member Brenda Lesper Photo/Mandy Marciniak people to come out and join the WI. ance’s mother. The group meets on the last Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. at St. Paul’s Church in Harrowsmith. “The group is great because it brings people together and we get a chance to do amazing events like this. I would encourage anyone interested Enjoy the Ride. to stop by.” R0013261247_0507

In Our Opinion

Take a moment to recognize nurses

It’s almost swimsuit weather . . . or at least it better be Craig Bakay Reporter

Of course Central/North Frontenac building inspector Jeremy Neven observed “they’re the same thing for you, aren’t they?” Big talk from a guy who lives in a tent. (OK, so it’s a yurt but potay-to, po-tah-to.) Still, although the ice is all gone from Sharbot Lake and there’s no snow anywhere to be seen, can we really trust Mother Nature this time? I remember it snowing once in June. Of course that was in Saskatoon and it didn’t last. Still, I was only in the pool once that summer and it was an in-and-out kinda thing. Even the brave souls who ended up jumping into a frozen Sharbot Lake in February don’t do it unless somebody’s going to give them money for their favourite charity for doing so. But I really enjoy swimming in a lake. I’ve never been big on pools and their chlorine smell (which wouldn’t be necessary if people didn’t pee in the pool but obviously many do). Similarly, ocean Vice President &has Regional Publisher Mount swimming never muchMike appealed

Kanata Kourier-Standard Column — OK, hands up all of editorial@theheritageemc.ca

you that don’t believe Spring is finally here. You’re right to be skeptical of course. Mother Nature can’t be trusted. (Nor can any of the nowarmy of groundhogs that seemed to think we’d have an early spring this year.) But after the winter we’ve just been through, can anybody blame us for being a bit wary? After all when a polar bear plunge gets rescheduled because of bitterly cold weather (as happened this year during Central Frontenac’s Heritage Festival in February) you know it’s cold. And the cold weather hung on, and on, and, well, you get the idea. So, just to be sure, I have decided not to put away my long johns until it is unquestionably time to exchange them for swim trunks.

to me because you always get that layer of salt encrusted on body parts that shouldn’t be encrusted. But lake swimming, particularly if there’s a nice sandy beach where you can slowly just walk into the water until it comes over the top of your bathing suit, is just about right. And while some may bemoan the fact that lakes are predicted to have lower levels this year unless there’s more rain, I say the lower levels make the water warmer — and warmer water makes for a more enjoyable swim experience. Now I know there are plenty of you who will claim to enjoy a brisk dip in a chilly lake, espousing all sorts of invigorated health benefits while you rush for a towel to wrap up in. I don’t believe you really like cold water any more than I believe Mother Nature. No, let’s face it, what we really love is when it’s hot as hell out there and we can just all go jump in the lake. And it’s completely impossible to say the words “the lake is just like bathwater” without DISTRIBUTION INQUIRIES a contented smile on your face. Jacquie Laviolette 613-221-6248

8 Frontenac Gazette - Thursday, May 7, 2015

Editorial - May 11-17 is National Nursing Week and we think it’s time for everyone to take a moment to thank or recognize a nurse and the impact they have on our lives. With more than 408,000 regulated nurses in Canada nurses are the largest of any health provider group and the backbone of our healthcare system. They do everything from taking blood to educating us on procedures to holding our hands when we are in a tough situation with a loved one. This year’s Canadian Nurses Association theme is ‘Nurses: With you every step of the way’. This theme emphasizes how important nurses are in our lives. They help us at every age, in all health situations and they work hard for all Canadians. National Nursing week originated in 1985; prior to that, the International Council of Nurses (ICN) had designated Florence Nightingale’s birthday – May 12 – as International Nurses Day in 1971 to recognize Nightingale’s important contribution to the field of nursing. Nightingale is best known around the world as the “Lady with the Lamp” who nursed British soldiers during the Crimean War and turned nursing into a profession. She was also an activist, social theorist and author. She worked hard to improve health and sanitation for British Army soldiers and she was also instrumental in early hospital planning. During her life and career, Nightingale published more than 200 books, reports and pamphlets that helped the medical field move forward. Nursing week is about celebrating Nightingale’s accomplishments and also the accomplishments of nurses today. They all work to make a difference in the lives of Canadians and create a healthier population and for that they deserve at least a few moments of our time. Those who wish to send thanks to nurses can by using the hashtag #everystep on Twitter from May 11-17 or visit cna-aiic.ca to share your story or learn more about the many ways nurses are helping Canadians.

News — Less than a month into the job, new Central Frontenac CAO/Public Works Manager Jim Zimmerman sat down with Treasurer Michael McGovern to have a look at the books and the result was a potential savings of $255,000 for the Township. The findings were presented at the regular Council meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. In a report titled 2015 Budget Pressures, Zimmerman said that there was an oversight in the public works total formula. “This has resulted in a $255,000 budget pressure,” he said. “The formula has since been corrected and a new procedure has been put in place to prevent future occurrences by ensuring the budget is entered into Asyst (financial software) and balanced before the final tax rate bylaw is passed.” The report identified six areas where savings can be achieved: • $255,000 was originally fore-

comfortably feel our gravel contract can be cut back by $50,000.” • expenditures will be “diligently controlled” for three major capital programs (Fifth Lake Road, Road 38 overpass and Mill Street/ Frontenac Road resurfacing). “We anticipate that this will yield an additional $17,400 in savings.” Although Coun. Tom Dewey was concerned delaying a truck purchase would “throw our capital replacement program out of whack,” the only other aspect of the savings measures that drew much debate was the gravel budget. “All of us received calls on gravel roads,” said Coun. Brent Cameron. “You’ve got the day-to-

day management and there could be some extraordinary usage like a washout. “Is there a contingency for this?” “The grader is still going to hit the road but instead of applying two trucks of gravel, we’ll use 1 ½ trucks,” Zimmerman said. “We are not cutting back on our stockpile which will be used as required.” Zimmerman acknowledged that there may need to be a new approach to gravel roads as sometimes gravel ends up in the ditch. He said he plans to try some new techniques such as using asphalt chips that will act as a glue to hold gravel in place once compacted.

KEDCO DASHBOARD 2014 In order for KEDCO to measure its success and better communicate its level of activity, the following metrics have

2015 GOAL – $100M INVESTMENT 1,000 JOBS Here’s our year-to-date progress since January 1, 2015

been put in place for the organization to track and gauge activity from year to year. In 2014, KEDCO achieved:

JOBS CREATED Jobs created may result from either new jobs from the attraction of a company to the city or additional jobs created through the growth of existing businesses. KEDCO measures jobs facilitated from opportunities where KEDCO staff have played a direct role in supporting the win of the opportunity.

INVESTMENT FACILITATED

JEFF GARRAH, CEO MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER We are pleased to present KEDCO’s 2014 Annual Report highlighting our activities over the past year. As the final year under the 2010-2014 Strategic Plan, we feel pride in a number of significant accomplishments achieved both last year and over the span of the five year plan. In 2014, we continued to position Kingston as a premier destination to visit, live, work and do business. The community has benefitted from stable growth over the past five years and there was new opportunity to push the agenda for making Kingston the most competitive place to do business – which in turn attracts great numbers of visitors and newcomers to live and work. Small businesses account for over 50 per cent of Kingston’s economic makeup and our Small Business Development Centre realized a recordbreaking year of consultations with entrepreneurs and business owners in 2014. KEDCO’s goals of growing jobs and investment were not achieved in isolation – it is our local business community and organizations that deserve recognition for their choice to invest in themselves and in Kingston’s collective success. 10 Frontenac Gazette - Thursday, May 7, 2015

Investment dollars are tracked with similar methodology as jobs facilitated. KEDCO must have been a part of the process in which new dollars are invested in the city. New jobs secured for the city are calculated based on an average one-year salary at $40,000. This salary is only captured in the first year of hire and is based on the median salary of Kingston employees.

OPPORTUNITIES CREATED An opportunity is defined as a qualified lead which has a real potential to create new job(s) or new direct monetary investment for the city. Opportunities may be in the sales pipeline for an undetermined amount of time, due to the nature and complexities of the specific deal.

COMPANY VISITS A company visit is when a KEDCO staff person undertakes an on-site meeting with a local organization to discuss business challenges and opportunities, areas where support could be delivered or any issues of concern. Often, new opportunities arise from company visits.

SALES CALLS A sales call is when a KEDCO staff person undertakes a meeting with qualified tour operators, sport organizations and event right holders to promote Kingston as a destination for upcoming meetings, conferences, group travel, tours and sporting events.

MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD A strong economic development strategy leads to job growth, new investments, improved wages and an overall increase in economic output. An important aspect of the KEDCO Board of Director’s work in 2014 was confirming the framework for the Corporation’s 2015-2020 Strategic Plan. We are excited to have launched this ambitious plan to facilitate $500 million of new investment and bring 5,000 new jobs to the community over the next five years. During the 2014 municipal election, we heard loud and clear the importance of the economy and economic development issues. While we can agree or disagree on strategies, sectors to pursue and sales and marketing tactics, one thing is certain – Kingstononians are keen to see job and investment creation occur. We need to strive to ensure future generations have opportunities to live and work here. We need to ensure entrepreneurs and innovators are supported, feel welcome and are celebrated for their intrinsic role in our economy. We understand the need to raise awareness of the important work KEDCO undertakes to sustain and transform our economy and we are committed to supporting the Corporation’s efforts.

Revenues down slightly, but so are expenses in Central Frontenac By Craig Bakay Reporter

News — Overall, the Township’s finances are in pretty good shape, Central Frontenac Treasurer Michael McGovern told Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. The overall average of revenues collected is at 36 per cent for the period ending March 31, McGovern said, which is 9 per cent lower than last year, but this is partly “related to timing issues.� There are slightly higher revenues from solar installations than last year, but garbage bags sales are down slightly, probably in part to residents recycling more.

The building department however has brought in $12,000 more than last year Expenditures however, are also down, leading to a rosier picture than it might have been. For example, overall, expenditures are down 6 per cent from last year. Facilities management costs are 10 per cent lower than last year but comparable to previous years. Waste management costs are ahead of budget, with site management costs slightly lower. The roads budget is so far 8 per cent lower than last year, owing to lower winter control costs and fewer washouts. “Fuel costs were down by $40,000,� McGovern said.

••• Lake levels are lower than previous years, Coun. Bill MacDonald told Council as part of his report as the Township’s representative on the Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority. “The logs (that regulate flow) were put in in March whereas they are usually put in in May,â€? MacDonald said. “All lakes are low so unless we get some rain soon . . .â€?• • • Council approved construction of a sales building and privy for the Kennebec Shores development on Kennebec Lake at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake.

David Suzuki Foundation invites Canadians to get outside for 30x30 Nature Challenge The David Suzuki Foundation’s (DSF) fourth annual 30x30 Nature Challenge – a campaign to get Canadians into “the nature habit” by spending 30 minutes a day outside for 30 consecutive days – launched April 22. Over the past three years, tens of thousands of individuals and hundreds of schools and workplaces have taken the challenge, reaping the many benefits of regular time spent outdoors. “A growing chorus of scientists and researchers agree: time spent in nature makes us happier, healthier and less stressed,” said Aryne Sheppard, DSF 30x30 Challenge campaign

lead. “Getting a daily dose of nature through the 30x30 Nature Challenge is the best prescription for a healthy, happy spring.” People who register at www.davidsuzuki. org/30x30 get daily tips on how to add green time to busy routines during the month of May. There are also free tool kits for workplaces and schools with ideas for getting colleagues and students involved. “Getting 30 minutes outside can be a walk in a nearby park, eating lunch under a tree or holding a business meeting on a park bench or at the beach instead of in a boardroom,” said Sheppard. “Of course,

we should all add nature to our routine every day, not just in May.” Since the first 30x30 challenge in 2012, tens of thousands of individuals have heeded nature’s call, doubling their time spent outside. Participants surveyed each year reported their daily nature habit helped them sleep better, and feel calmer and less stressed. The 30x30 Nature Challenge is being presented in partnership with Genuine Health, with generous support from program partners Desjardins, Elemental and Interface and media partners Météo Média / The Weather Network.

Full bellies, open minds: Food Sharing Project makes big impact with donation funded school meals By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

News - As an elementary school principal, Brenda Moore sees the difference healthy diets and full bellies make for children on a daily basis. “Food matters,” she says. “We can’t expect kids to do what we ask them to do all day when they’re hungry. They’re not going to learn, they’re not going to solve problems well.” Moore, who is principal at J.R. Henderson Public School, is also board chair of the Food Sharing Project (FSP), a local non-profit charitable organization that last year provided nutritious food for 13,775 students in over 94 schools in the Algonquin Lakeshore and Limestone District School Boards. Teachers and principals order the food for the schools ahead of time from a pre-determined menu, which has been vetted by a public health dietician. Food is then purchased in bulk by FSP

executive director Tim Brown and several other employees. “We rely heavily on funding so we can go [buy the food ourselves],” Brown explains. “There are nutritional guidelines to follow – 100 per cent pure juice, whole wheat bread, low sugar content, etc. Plus lots of fruit and vegetables.” Every Tuesday, approximately six tons of food are shipped from the Food Sharing Project’s warehouse near the Partners In Mission Food bank to schools throughout the city. Volunteers – who range from parents to teachers to custodians to church groups and more - then run breakfast, lunch and snack programs at the respective schools in whatever way they feel best serves the students. The FSP also provides the schools with the equipment needed to cook the food. Brown notes that it’s interesting to see the creative ideas the volunteers come up with when serving food to the kids.

Full bellies, open minds: Food Sharing Project makes big impact with donation funded school meals “Last week at one school they did [eggs] in little cupcake tins. They whipped up the eggs, sprinkled a little bit of cheese on top, popped them in the oven. Then they’ve got some English muffins toasted and the kids can squish it on their English muffin.” He adds that the program even appears to give many of the kids an appreciation for healthy food. “We go through so much green pepper and baby carrots. It’s unbelievable. From what I hear through the teachers, the kids will say things like ‘we were at the store with mommy yesterday and she was going to get chips and I asked her to get these green peppers’.” Moore explains that the need for the FSP is obviously different for every school, and the organization does its best to meet the respective needs of each. “There are some schools where the need is greater just because of the circumstances that those children’s families have to cope with every day. If we can fill that

gap and feed the kids at school then that means we’re helping them do better at school, which is what educators are all about, but it also means that family knows that they don’t have to make that decision between the heating bill and the grocery bill.” The majority of funding for the FSP, which adds up to as much as $50,000 a month in food costs, comes from the Ministry of Children and Youth, and flows through the Hastings-Prince Edward Learning Foundation. ‘It takes a big load off the school in that we don’t have to do the shopping, we don’t have to do the grant writing and we don’t have to buy equipment,” says Moore, noting that this sort of program happens on more of a one-time basis throughout most of Ontario because the funding simply isn’t there. Still, additional funding is needed to allow the program to meet the needs of all local schools. As such, the FSP holds an annual fundraiser, which is coming up May 23 in the form of a spring banquet and silent auction. For the second year in a row, the

banquet is being put on by the Chinese Canadian Association of Kingston and District and will be held at Our Lady of Fatima Parish. Each school in the region will also donate an item or a service to the silent auction. “They may have someone who is a great woodworker and makes a beautiful salad bowl, or someone else who does beautiful knitting and they donate an afghan,” says Moore. “They create some beautiful items for us to auction off.” She adds that “it’s a great way

Kingstonians invited to speak up and help create a healthier Canada By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Events - With a federal election on the horizon, it’s time for voters to start thinking about the issues that matter most to them; undoubtedly, one of the major ballot issues for most Canadians is that of health care – what needs to be improved and how that will happen. On May 13, family physician and vice president of the Women’s College Hospital in Toronto, Dr. Danielle Martin, will be visiting Kingston to talk about what she sees as the major issues in Canadian healthcare and offering solutions on how to move

forward. “My area of focus and interest as an academic and as an advocate is around improving the healthcare system and specifically improving the quality, accessibility and equity within the framework of Canadian public healthcare,” said Martin. “I will be speaking about what I think people should be paying attention to as we head into election time.” Martin has spoken across the country about the issue of Canadian healthcare and her talks centre on what she calls the ‘medicare advantage’. She would like to see a health care system that is built on the strengths and successes of our publicly funded

healthcare system and specifically on the strength and fairness of a healthcare that is based on need rather than ability to pay. As part of that, she also sees cost control and the administrative simplicity of having a single insurance plan for anyone living in a given province as a strength to build off of. “What I am going to do in the talk is suggest that we take that medicare advantage and build on it and extend our strengths of fairness and cost control and simplicity to other areas where the health of Canadians can really Dr. Danielle Martin will be speaking about Canadian Healthcare be improved,” she said. “The two and how to best move forward at Memorial Hall on May 13.

Kingstonians invited to speak up and help create a healthier Canada things I’m going to focus on are poverty reduction and pharma care as the two big ticket items where I think the federal government has potentially a really big role to play.” Martin acknowledges that a lot of people, even politicians, see healthcare as a provincial jurisdiction; however, she sees the

health of Canadians as an issue that transcends the delivery of healthcare services. “I think there is a great deal that the federal government could do,” she explained. “I’m trying to draw a link for people in terms of what we should expect of Ottawa. Elections are about big ideas so this is the right time for us to all, as citizens, think about what those big ideas should be that we want to see our

representatives debating.” Martin also hopes to turn conversations about healthcare into positive, more productive discussions. She wants people to stop focusing on the problems and turn their views more toward the solutions. “A lot of the coverage that we see about the healthcare system in the media in Canada tends to focus on where the challenges are and it is

important to acknowledge those, but it is also important to take a positive lens on those problems and think about what we can do about it.” Martin hopes that her talk in Kingston will inspire more positive, solution-based thinking and she encourages people to come out for that reason. “People tend to find solutionbased conversations energizing,” she said. “Whether people agree

with the details of what I am going to discuss or not, this is how you build democracy. Leading into an election you need to have some indepth conversations about what you want to see your country do and I think this is a great start.” Dr. Danielle Martin will be speaking at Memorial Hall on May 13 at 7 p.m. Admission is free and light refreshments will be provided.

Why everyone should ‘relay’ this spring By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – Last June, Lorelee Treneer lost her best friend and coworker to cancer; at first she was angry and wanted to stay as far away from cancer as possible, but then she decided to leave all that negativity behind and work to make a difference. “I was feeling very bitter about the whole situation, but in February I decided to attend the breakfast for the Canadian Cancer Society,” explained Treneer. “I was very inspired by how many people volunteer for them and the stories I heard. I decided that instead of being bitter and angry, I should do something.” Thus Treneer, who manages the Kingston west branch of Curves fitness center, decided to participate in the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) Relay For Life. Gradually, she started gathering team members. “We now have 44 women participating. We’ve split into smaller teams and we are all walking to fundraise for Cancer and because of our friend,” she said. “She was a staff member here and she was also my best friend so it was a loss for me and the business. She is very missed so we will all be walking for her.” In 2014, nearly 400 Relays took

place across Canada with 128,734 participants. Together, they raised $42.2 million for the CCS and while this may seem like a lot, they are always in need of more funds. “At the breakfast, one of the women said she used to donate but never fundraised. Now she realizes that the reason she is alive is because people fundraised for her,” said Treneer. “It really struck me and showed me that everything we do makes a difference to someone else. I could be helping another friend, or a sister or myself in the future and it is our responsibility to help raise funds for that.” Every dollar raised or donated helps the CCS have a greater impact against more cancers in more communities, across Canada. The funds raised through Relay For Life help support cancerThere’s research, fund support groups and engage more Canadians in the fight against cancer. “I think it is a great cause and the more you learn about the Cancer Society and what they do with their money the more you realize how important fundraising is,” said To Be Treneer. Cancer research has a long Madecome in the way and now over 60 per cent of Classifieds Canadians diagnosed with cancer will survive compared to about 25 per cent in the early 613-546-8885 1940s when funded

research began. But cancer is still the leading cause of death in Canada. This year’s Relay For Life takes place at the Kingston 1000 Islands Sportsplex on June 6 from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Participants are invited to walk or run together around the track passing a baton to their fellow participants. Treneer and her teams are looking forward to the event and she hopes more people come out and participate. “The market is really saturated with different organizations wanting money and I think you really need to choose something that is important to you,” she said. “I don’t think there are many people who haven’t been affected by cancer or will be in the future and I think we should all relay for that reason.” For more information about the Kingston Relay For Life or to register a team visit www.cancer.ca or contact Doug Kane at 613-723-1744 x3631 or DKane@ontario.cancer.ca Lorelee Treneer will be participating in this year’s Relay For Life and

Reap the benefits of a well-insulated home

R0013250244

(NC) Many of us know that insulation plays a key role in keeping our homes warm in the winter and cool in the summer. But did you know the benefits can go well beyond achieving basic R-value requirements? Quality insulation can provide a number of added benefits that contributes to the comfort, safety and efficiency of a home, including: Sound absorbency – Life is loud, but the right choice of insulation can help reduce noise transfer throughout your home. Insulating between floors and interior walls can help create a peaceful sanctuary in areas of your home, even when life is chaotic. A safe indoor environment – Good indoor air quality goes a long way to ensuring personal comfort.

Choosing insulation that is water repellant and resistant to mould, mildew, fungi, bacterial growth and rot—can help to prevent common issues behind your walls that may pose serious health and safety concerns and lead to costly repairs. Look to products that will not offgas or emit harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds). Savings – A properly insulated building will be more energy efficient, a benefit that will continue to provide return on investment long after the insulation install is complete. The result is reduced heating and cooling costs, less stress on your furnace and air conditioner (potentially leading to a longer equipment lifespan) and, at the end of day, more money in your pock-

et.

Fire-resistance – Certain insulations, particularly stone wool insulation products such as Roxul Comfortbatt and Safe ‘n’ Sound, can help buy valuable minutes in the event of a fire, withstanding temperatures of up to 1,177˚C. Non-combustible, this insulation exceeds the limits of most other insulating materials, and it won’t produce smoke or encourage the spread of flames. Performance - It’s important to remember that not all insulations are created equal. Some insulations can sag or contract over time, leaving gaps that can let outdoor air in and conditioned air out. Choosing insulation that is dimensionally stable, durable, and that offers long-term thermal performance

Beautiful Handcrafted Canadian Made Solid Wood Furniture SALE STARTS MAY 1ST

will ensure your home can stand up in even the most challenging conditions. Stone wool products are proven to perform in even the most extreme conditions, making them ideal for use in Canada. Ultimately, you can purchase insulation as many do, based on basic R-values, but when it comes to quality, comfort, safety and efficiency, is basic really the best choice? Quality counts when it comes to all building materials. Always look for products that will deliver benefits well beyond the status quo.

How to spot an unhealthy tree Perhaps because they can live for so many years, trees have a way of falling down homeowners’ landscaping priority lists. Trees also tend to be big and strong, so it’s no surprise that they often are overlooked in favor or other areas of a lawn and garden that don’t seem so strong in the face of Mother Nature. But trees are susceptible to damage and disease, and homeowners who learn to recognize symptoms of such problems can prevent them from escalating and reduce the risk that the trees will cause damage to their properties. The following are just some of the ways homeowners can determine if their trees are unhealthy. Homeowners who suspect they have a tree that poses a safety risk should contact a professional tree service for an immediate in-

spection and steer clear of the tree until an inspection has been performed. • Check around the base of the tree. The base of a tree may offer some telltale signs that the tree is unhealthy. Soil that is cracked or raised at the base of the tree may be indicative of a tree that has started to uproot. If you recognize any cracking or if the soil is raised, look at the tree to see if it is leaning. If the soil is cracked or raised because it is uprooting, then the tree might have already started to lean in the opposite direction of the cracking or raised soil. • Examine for fungus. The growth of fungus on the tree trunk or close to it may be a sign that the tree is rotting or decaying. Fungal growth, such as a sudden population of mushrooms, around the base of the tree is another sign of decay. If the wood behind fun-

gal growth crumbles easily, then homeowners should call a professional tree service, as the fungal problem on the tree has likely already been festering for quite some time. • Look for cavities on the trunk. Cracks and cavities on a tree may not be an emergency, but especially deep cracks and cavities may be indicative of a structural problem. Multiple cracks and cavities also serve as red flags. • Look for dead wood. It may sound simple, but dead wood poses a threat to the tree and anyone who happens to spend time in its vicinity. Dead wood snaps easily, and falling dead wood can harm anyone unlucky enough to be beneath the tree when the dead wood snaps. Dead wood branches won’t bend in the wind, and such branches frequently fall off of trees when

strong gusts of wind come along. Dead branches either won’t have leaves or the leaves will be brown (dead pine branches will have brown needles). • Weak connections. Unhealthy trees often have weak connections between their branches and their trunks. If branches don’t appear to be strongly connected to the tree bark, call a tree service to determine a solution. The tree might not be on its way out, but you may have to take steps to strengthen the connections so branches are not at risk of falling. Unhealthy trees can pose a significant safety hazard on a property. Homeowners who learn to recognize the signs of unhealthy trees can do something to prevent dying trees from damaging their homes.

Trending window treatments can affect your mood (NC) The overall ambience of a space sets the tone for how we feel far more than the individual decorative items. According to Kim Kiner, vice president of textile and material design for window treatment company Hunter Douglas, what directly affects that mood might surprise you. More often than not, it’s the lighting coming through the window. “Whether it’s soft, filtered light or bright sunshine cascading through your shades, the way these rays enter a room can change everything,” says Kiner. With so much at stake at the window here are a few of the popular trends she recommends to get the most out of the window dressings:

1. Motorization: Consumers today want a “connected home” with Internet-ready products that can be operated with the convenience of mobile devices. Have you heard of the Platinum App from Hunter Douglas? It allows users to create personalized scenes from morning light to movie night. You can control all the shades in your home with one click and time a scene with your alarm clock for a refreshing morning. The app is even available with a sunrise/sunset timer feature that uses GPS data to calculate the exact times for a specific location. 2. Energy efficiency: Everyone wants to live more responsibly. Therefore, products that offer

enhanced energy efficiency to keep homes warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer are very popular. Energy-efficient window treatments are a smart way to conserve energy in your home. Duette Architella honeycomb shades for example, can help reduce solar heat gain at the window by up to 80 percent and heat loss through windows by up to 40 percent. And, the way the light filters into the room is beautiful. By conserving energy at the window, you can rest assured your cooling and heating systems won’t have to work as hard. The superior UV protection offered by soft, sheer Silhouette window shadings is trending with consumers as well.

3. Sophisticated textures: Window treatments are not just about function: they make a style statement. And the beauty and sophistication that textures add at the window is getting increased recognition. From natural textures to exquisite textile weaves such as linens and raw silks, they create a distinctive look that transforms an ordinary window to extraordinary. Fabrics for Alustra Vignette Modern Roman Shades, for example, include a grass cloth texture with a subtle sheen. Whether you’re living in a new space and starting from scratch or want to update your window décor, these trends will modernize your home and add unique style. R001

SpringHome 2015 Home improvement projects perfect for spring

Use this handy spring cleaning checklist (NC) After the long Canadian winter, there’s something about this time of year that inspires us to throw open our windows and let the fresh breeze in. Spring is an ideal time to de-clutter and infuse renewed energy into our living space. A complete spring clean overhaul can take days of course, so plan accordingly and set a realistic schedule. The following tips will soon have your home dustfree: • Before you begin cleaning, categorize the list of jobs required (e.g. cleaning baseboards, organizing cupboards, washing curtains). Although it seems easier to tackle all the vacuuming at once, completing one room at a time will give you the satisfaction to continue. • Begin with dusting and vacuuming surfaces— from ceiling to baseboards—as well as chandeliers, light bulbs and light fixtures. Spring cleaning does require a little old fashioned elbow grease. Scrub floors with a scrubbing brush and cleaning solution, clean the grout on tiled floors. If you don’t already own one, rent

a steam cleaner for carpets. • Take down window treatments and wash or dry clean. Wipe wooden blinds with a gentle wood cleaner, wash aluminum blinds outdoors where they can dry. Clean the inside of windows. • As a rule, work from the top down, so areas don’t get dirty again. However, when it comes to washing walls, it is easier to start from the bottom using a sponge mop. This way, you can more easily clean up any drips. • In the kitchen, thoroughly clean the tops of cabinets, fridges and stove vent. Be ruthless with the contents of your fridge and throw out anything old, or furry. Defrost your freezer, empty the contents and wipe the inside with a mix of a litre of hot water with 2 tablespoons of baking soda. • In the bedroom, flip your mattress and edit your wardrobe. Store away winter garments until the next season and get rid of clothes you haven’t worn for more than a year; don’t save them for “someday”. • Organize bookshelves and storage cabinets. Spring

cleaning is a good time to donate unused or unwanted items. One place you can donate is to a ReStore of homebuilding organization, Habitat for Humanity. It accepts everything from furniture, household products, to even the kitchen sink. And ReStores provide a tax

receipt for the value of your donation. You can find one in your community at www.habitat.ca/restore. • Spring cleaning is also an ideal time to safely dispose of expired medications and replace batteries in your smoke detector.

It is heavy bodied for excellent coverage and comes in a washable matte, eggshell, pearl and semi-gloss finish. Lauren loves Benjamin Moore’s Advance. Available in a pearl or semi-gloss finish, Advance is perfect for painting cabinets and furniture. A waterborne alkyd, it has the flow and leveling qualities of an oil based paint, but the ease of soap and water clean up. Try it for your next

furniture spruce up! Arianne, our Window Treatments Expert, is really impressed with Maxxmar Window Fashion’s new Mandalay Alternative shades. They give the choice between optimal light control and total privacy. She finds it a well-priced alternative to shutters, giving your windows an elegant, soft, yet very casual look in a variety of colours to suit your home. Kayla really likes Frog Tape! With its Paint Block Technology, Frog Tape truly is unlike any other masking tape. The adhesive on the tape reacts with latex paint and instantly gels to form a barrier that seals the edges preventing paint bleed. Great for masking off graphics or for any project where precision lines are desired. Tanya thinks the short-handled angled paint brush is fantastic. With no long handle to get in the way, projects are easy. We carry these brushes in 1 1/2”, 2 “, 2 1/2” from Bennett tools, Proform and Corona. Whatever your painting project, come see us for quality products and expert advice!

Top Tools for Spring Cleaning (NC) The snow has finally melted and warmer weather has arrived. The trouble is, all that brilliant sunshine has a way of highlighting the mess that’s been hiding under the snow for all these months. Suddenly your spring cleaning “to-do” list is looking longer than ever. Now is the time to get outside and look after those neglected lawns and gardens to prepare for spring flowers and greenery. Three tools are essential to make quick work of the task at hand and to keep your outdoors looking beautiful all summer: 1. Lawnmower. Your grass loves the spring sunshine and will respond with rapid growth, so a lawnmower is vital to keeping your lawn looking lush and healthy. There are a variety of lawn mowers to choose from, depending on the size and shape of your outdoor

space. If you have a large space, you might want to consider a self-propelled mower to tackle big jobs with minimal effort. Other popular models include push-mowers and environmentallyfriendly electric mowers. Take the time to consider which mower is best suited to your needs. 2. Drill. Not just for spring maintenance, a good drill will help you complete small tasks around the outside (and inside) of your house. A new drill can also serve as an incentive to complete those DIY projects you’ve been putting off so take a look at the variety at any reputable tool dealer. Sears Canada tells us, for example, that there are many types of hand drills including pistol-grip drills, which are the most common for everyday use. Heavy-duty tasks might require a hammer drill that

can power through concrete or wood. Consider your summer projects to make sure you get the best tool for the tasks at hand. 3. Pressure washer. Winter salt and mud can wreak havoc on the surfaces of your home. A pressure washer is the best way to remove the dirt and stains that accumulate around the outside of your home. Keep your driveway and deck looking clean with a gas or electric pressure washer that easily attaches onto your garden hose. The higher the pressure, the tougher the cleaning power. For cleaning barbecue grills, patio furniture and windows, electric washers are generally lower in pressure, are more compact and easy to maneuver. Less time will be spent working and more time will be spent enjoying the

summertime if you have just the right tools to get jobs done efficiently. More

has dried up a bit. Remove layers of leaves that can lead to the grass moulding or decaying by using a leaf blower or a rake. However, don’t rake the lawn until it has started to grow. ∙ Would you buy it? Walk around your entire home’s exterior with a critical eye. Take notes on what needs repairing, replacing or cleaning. ∙ Add colour. Replace overgrown bushes with leafy plants and colourful annuals. Surround bushes and trees with dark or reddish-brown bark mulch; this will give a rich feel to the yard. Potted plants are another way to add a splash of colour and can be taken with you when you move. ∙ Mow the lawn. Remember not to cut the grass too short. With a grass level of 5 to 9 cm you will have a fine, sustainable lawn.

lutants. Even if they sound when you push the test button, outdated alarms must be replaced. If your smoke alarm is hardwired, battery powered or plug-in it should be replaced every 10 years, and CO alarms every 7-10 years, depending on the brand. If you are not sure of their age, manufacturing dates can be found on stickers or under the alarm cover. When selecting safety devices, invest in models with the latest technology. Kidde, this country’s leading manufacturer of smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, recently introduced its newest “Worry-Free” model lineup with advanced sensors that reduce false alarms. Alarms also feature a 10-year sealed lithium battery – meaning it doesn’t need to be replaced for the alarm’s entire lifespan. This summer, whether your vacation takes you to a cottage, an RV or a sleek watercraft, think fire and carbon monoxide safety first.

(NC) If you didn’t realize that cottages, mobile homes, boats and even pop-up trailers require smoke alarms, you’re not alone. Many people think smoke alarm laws are only applicable to permanent homes. In fact, exactly the opposite is true. Across Canada, building codes, provincial laws or municipal bylaws have distinct specifications for these types of spaces. Virtually every type of camper, trailer, RV, cottage and boat with living, cooking or sleeping quarters require a working smoke alarm on every storey and outside all sleeping areas. Many dwellings can also be at risk of exposure to carbon monoxide (CO), known as the ‘Silent Killer.’ This lethal gas is colourless, odorless and tasteless and is emitted from any fuel-burning device such as wood stoves, wood, oil, propane or gas fireplaces, appliances, stoves, heaters, coolers and generators. It is also given off from boat and vehicle exhaust. In addition to having heating systems, flues and ductwork checked annually by a professional it is good practice, and a minimum standard in many municipalities, to protect your family not only with a smoke alarm but also with at least one carbon monoxide alarm. This device is the only way to know if CO is present. In Ontario and Yukon, the law requires installation of CO alarms outside sleeping areas in any dwelling at risk of CO exposure. When first opening for cottage season, fire safety officials advise to take stock of your smoke and CO alarms before you kick back with a cold one. Fresh batteries should be installed, and cobwebs and dust lightly vacuumed off. It is essential to check if your smoke alarms are due for a replacement. Over time sensors can weaken and become obstructed with airborne pol-

Ideas for pool perimeter landscaping With the rise of the “staycation,” more and more homeowners are turning their backyards into their own private oases. The centerpiece of many such retreats is a refreshing and inviting

pool. Whether above-ground or inground models, pools make for welcoming spots to enjoy warm days and nights. A new pool can quickly turn a

Safety first Although the goal may be to soften the lines of the pool and/or create sight barriers that will provide some measure of privacy for swimmers, homeowners must put safety above all else. Before any decorative touches are added, it is important to surround a pool with a slip-resistant surface and fencing (many communities require fences be erected around pools). Consult with a landscaping contractor, who should be knowledgeable about safety codes, or speak to the permit-issuing department at town hall. There should be a list of requirements to ensure pool placement as well as any surrounding touches are legal and within code.

Nonslip surfaces Concrete, brick and pavers and decking are popular materials used to surround a pool. Installers can make recommendations on materials and finishes, but one suggestion is to choose a rough finish. Pool water can make surfaces slippery. Concrete that is stamped or scarred provides extra traction than a smooth surface. The same can be said for brick patios and pavers. Avoid smooth stones or pavers with shiny surfaces, as these may only increase the risk of falls. Homeowners who have chosen wood or composite decking to surround a pool should talk to their contractor about nonslip protective coatings. Such coatings typically are acrylic-based liquids applied like a paint or sealer. Some composite decks may be crafted with texture or a built-in coating to reduce slipping. In addition, use nonstick mats on decks and patios to provide a little extra footing where people enter and exit the

yard into the “it” spot to spend vacations or cool off at the end hot summer days. While pools are often the focal point of a backyard, many homeowners want their pools to blend seamlessly with the rest of their yards. When transforming a backyard that includes a pool, homeowners should consider a few factors to ensure each afternoon spent poolside is as safe as it is fun.

pool. Mulch and stone Homeowners often prefer some combination of mulch or stone to serve as a transition between the pool, concrete or paver hardscape and the lawn. Stone may be more practical for those with inground pools because it will not easily blow onto the water surface. With an above-ground pool, mulch or stone can do the trick, serving as a barrier so that pool water does not overly drench the surrounding lawn or damage grass after exposure to pool chemicals. Mulch and stone also will provide drainage from water runoff from the pool and rain. Another advantage of having an additional barrier between the pool and lawn is that lawn clippings will not be shot into the pool when mowing. Stone and mulch can be dressed up with statues, lawn ornaments and tolerant plants. Finishing touches Plants can provide the finishing touches for a poolside landscape. Homeowners should keep in mind that pools are not often shaded from the sun, so plants placed around the pool will need to be sun- and drought-tolerant. Succulents, such as aloe and jade, may work, as can the perennial shrub yucca. Moderately growing grasses will offer a privacy barrier. Keep trees and flowering plants far enough away from the pool’s edge so they do not contribute to debris that falls into the pool, which can complicate maintenance. Also, flowering plants may attract insects and other wildlife that may interfere with your enjoyment of the pool. It’s better to create a friendly environment for wildlife further away from the pool. Homeowners who need some advice planning the landscaping around their pools can rely on the expertise of landscape architects as well as employees at lawn and garden centers. Pool companies may work with landscapers and offer recommendations to people unaccustomed to working around pools.


SpringHome 2015 Home improvement projects perfect for spring

Find the best method of treating warm weather insects Homeowners know that the arrival of spring also marks the re-emergence of insects. While not every insect is harmful, if an infestation grows considerably or if insects begin to move from the outdoors into a home, it may be time for homeowners to call in a professional. The Entomological Society of America points out that homeowners cannot count on bitterly cold winters to help control the numbers of insects in their yards. Insect ecology is affected by various factors and is not solely dependent on temperature. Furthermore, what occurred one year

certainly may not be repeated the next, as homeowners who have had various insect infestations in their yards can attest. One year a yard may be overcome with ants, while the next year it may suffer through an earwig infestation. The first step homeowners looking to curtail insects in their yards can take is to determine if the insects they see are genuine threats to their lawns. Some bugs emerge and swarm early in the season, but then gradually disappear as spring turns into summer. Other insects may come out of hiding if a homeowner is doing a lot of yard work or construction

around a house. Practice a waitand-see approach to determine if you really have an insect problem or just have stirred up activity. Homeowners also must decide if it is bearable living with the insects. If insects are not doing any damage or if they can be controlled relatively easily, then you might be able to avoid calling in the professionals. However, if critters like termites and certain species of wood-eating insects are invasive and damaging your yard, you may need to take action. Anyone concerned with the side effects of pesticides and insecticides can first try to remedy the problem naturally. Sometimes it’s just a matter of making a yard less hospitable to insects. Remove leaves and clean up debris close to the house, as these can both encourage infestations. Piles of rotting wood or leftover firewood can be a food or shelter source for a number of insects. Inspect water spigots for leaks and improve suspect drainage on your property, as these things can be welcoming to bugs that like moist surroundings. Remove standing water whenever possible to eliminate spots for mosquitoes to incubate larvae. Natural remedies also may do the trick. Mint, bay leaves, catnip, and garlic can repel insects like roaches and ants. Citrus can be a natural flea deterrent. Some homeowners have had success planting marigolds around their yards to serve as a natural bug repellent

because the flowers produce a scent that many insects find repulsive. Thai lemon grass plants also can be used to keep mosquitoes at bay. Remember, natural predators, such as birds, bats, spiders, and larger insects, feed on nuisance bugs. Keeping these helpful predators around may be an effective and natural way for homeowners to control annoying pests.

If an insect problem seems out of control or if you need a professional opinion about the damage being done to your home or landscape, consult with an exterminator. Licensed exterminators have the training and expertise to assess insect concerns and create a plan of action that will minimize the risk to inhabitants of your home and nearby wildlife.

Seeding and fertilizing schedule Restoring lawns and gardens back to their prewinter glory is high on many a homeowner’s landscaping to-do list. In much of the country, the best times to tackle lawn projects are when temperatures are moderate, like in spring and fall. These seasons also mark the best time to seed and fertilize. Planting and fertilizing new grass seed should be done when frost is no longer a concern and before frost arrives if you are planting in autumn. According to Roger Cook, a landscape contractor and contributor to This Old House magazine, sowing lawn seed should be done when the soil is warm, the daytime temperatures are moderate and you can keep the new seeds quite moist at all times. While grass seed can be applied in the summer, it is more challenging to get the seeds to take root and thrive at this time, as water is more likely to evaporate under the hot sun. Also, many weeds germinate in the heat of summer. As a result, the weeds can infiltrate areas of the lawn where you planted, compromising the look of your lawn. The process of reseeding and fertilizing your lawn is relatively similar if you decide to do so in late spring or early fall. • Rake the parts of the lawn you plan to seed and remove any debris or rocks. • Apply fertilizer to the cleared planting area. Use a rake or tiller to break up the soil and distribute the fertilizer to a depth of roughly two to four inches. Speak with a landscaper about which type of fertilizer you will need depending on where you live. Many fertilizers contain extra phosphorous to stimulate root growth in the lawn. • Moisten the prepared area and let the soil settle. You want the soil damp but not so wet that it causes the newly applied fertilizer to run off. • Begin to sow the grass seed according to the rate indicated on the seed bag for the type of grass you will be growing. Choose a grass seed that will thrive in your climate. Certain seeds are more tolerant of drought and sunlight, while other species are better for shady areas or damper climates.

Again, if you have any questions, consult with a lawn and garden center. • Spread the seed with a broadcast spreader. Some lawn experts recommend spreading the seed in parallel rows and then repeating the process again in rows set at a right angle to the first series of rows for the best chances of seed coverage. The seeds then can be raked into the soil, covered with a little more soil and patted down. • Water to keep the seeds damp. This may require watering twice or more per day until the seeds begin to germinate. Covering the seeds with about 1⁄4 inch of straw also can help keep the seeds moist, deter seed scavengers and prevent soil erosion. Remove the straw once the grass begins to grow. • Roughly four weeks after the seeds have started to grow, apply another round of fertilizer to replenish the top layer of soil with nutrients that may have washed away from the constant watering. Homeowners can employ a similar process to overseed a lawn in the hopes of producing a thicker, more attractive landscape. Any thatch and debris should be raked away, and the top layer of the lawn surface can be gently aerated. Top dress the lawn with a very thin layer of new soil and compost. Broadcast the seed over the prepared lawn and lightly rake the new seeds to help them settle into the soil. Apply fertilizer and water the lawn frequently to keep the new seeds moist. Once the seed has established itself, you can water the lawn for longer periods and less frequently to help develop strong roots. Wait for the lawn to reach a height of three to four inches before the first cut of the season. Many homeowners like to take on the challenge of seeding and preparing their lawns. But some may find the task is best left to the professionals.
