KEDCO launches internal review, two top employees depart By Bill Hutchins

Art in City Park

News – Kingston’s Economic Development Corporation (KEDCO) has announced a sweeping internal review of its organization amid concerns raised about its accountability to city council and the community. Following a ‘half day’ strategy session on Aug. 14, KEDCO’s board of directors announced that it will form a committee to review “KEDCO’s mandate, service delivery, organizational structure, key performance indicators.” The board says the review panel, which is expected to begin its work this fall, will include representatives from city council and the community. “The KEDCO Board will be asking City Council for the opportunity to present this review plan before Council in early September,” the organization said in an Aug. 17 news release. It marks the first time in nearly a decade that KEDCO has reviewed the way it promotes tourism and economic development. KEDCO isn’t stopping there to address criticism that its organization is bloated, its benchmark job cre-

ation and investment targets are hard to measure, and that it’s not fully accountable to the taxpayers who help fund it in the amount of $2.7 million a year. The embattled agency, which operates at arm’s length from council, is also promising to reduce the amount it seeks from city hall starting next year. “In preparation for the fall municipal budget process, the Board also reviewed 2016 operating budget scenarios and has confirmed its intent to reduce its municipal funding ask to fit within guidelines being set by the City,” the statement said. It’s unclear by just how much KEDCO’s annual budget will be reduced. The review and promise of a tighter budget was announced just days after the resignation of long-time KEDCO president and CEO Jeff Garrah, who voluntarily decided to part ways with the agency to pursue other interests. Garrah joined the agency a decade ago and spent the past eight years as its chief executive officer. “The Board would like to express our gratitude for Jeff’s tireless efforts Continued on page 5

Fort Henry hosts ‘Little Big Day’ in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News –Big Brothers Big Sisters is an organization that focuses on mentorship between ‘Bigs’ and ‘Littles’, as children and their adult mentors are called; together these pairs participate in a variety of activities including movies, sports and social events, but on Aug. 19 members received a unique opportunity to explore one of Kingston’s most famous attractions. “St. Lawrence Parks Commission and Fort Henry had always mentioned wanting to do a joint event and that is what is happen-

ing today,” explained Peter Cory executive director of Big Brothers Big Sisters. “We are here and we are fundraising and our members are enjoying all that the fort has to offer.” The idea came about after an unfortunate fundraising event last fall that left Big Brothers Big Sisters of Kingston, Frontenac Lennox and Addington without the funds they were promised. The “colour run,” held at Fort Henry, was organized by an Ameri c a n c o m p a n y. They

promised to donate funds raised by the run to BBBS in exchange for their help during the event. “We took on some of the leg work in terms of providing volunteers and after the run took place we were to receive the money, but the company disappeared,” said Cory. “Unfortunately, other charitable organizations had a similar experience too.” After hearing about this unfortunate development through the news, CEO of the St Lawrence Parks Commission, Darren Dalgleish, called BBBS and promised the money they were supposed to receive.

“They had already collected rental fees from the company in advance and they wanted to give us the money that we should have received,” said Cory. “He came the next day and gave us a cheque and it was wonderful to see that sort of generosity. Dalgleish also went a step further and worked with Cory to organize a day for BBBS at Fort Henry free of charge. “We offered some assistance to remedy a situation and it has morphed into a unique relationship with this organization”, said Dalgleish. “The ‘Littles’ will enjoy a special opportunity to be mentored by the Fort Henry Guard – something these children would never be typically exposed to. Our intention is to create a partnership program that can be sustained in the years to come.” Cory expected about 50-60 members to take advantage of the day, which invited members either with their families or their matches to come explore the fort

and then stay into the evening to see the sunset ceremony, something 12-year-old Max Minicola was looking forward to. “It’s my favourite part. I’ve been here once before and it was a lot of fun,” said Minicola. “Me and my match, Kyle, usually go swimming or to the movies, so this is a bit different.” Cory was joined by a number of volunteers on site to register members as they came in, but also to collect donations from the public and raise awareness about BBBS and their services. In Kingston, BBBS serves almost 300 kids through their traditional match programs, in-school mentoring programs and group mentorship programs and they are always looking for interested volunteers. “We are happy to answer questions and provide information to those who are interested and this is the perfect venue for that,” said Cory. “We are really grateful for the partnership here and we hope it continues.” To find out more about programs, fundraising opportunities or to inquire about mentorship, please contact Big Brothers Big Sisters at (613) 544-1621 or www.bigbrothersbigsisterskingston.com.

Local firefighter breaks ‘hometown curse’ to win Kingston Canadian Open of Fishing hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

Sports - The ‘hometown curse’ of the Kingston Canadian Open of Fishing has been lifted at last thanks to local fire fighter Lenny deVos, who took home the top prize on Aug. 15. deVos reeled in 24.25 pounds of small mouth bass on the first day of the tournament and 28.05 on the second day, resulting in a winning total of 52.3 pounds for the top 10 fish combined. The heaviest individual fish was a 5.75 pound small mouth. He was rewarded with the tournament’s $16,000 grand prize, plus $2,000 for catching the biggest fish – and, of course, bragging rights. “It was pretty amazing,” deVos says. “I’ve put a lot of hard work into fishing Lake Ontario over the last few years, trying to learn [its ways] and it’s finally paid off.” He says the key is to understand how the winds on the lake affect the habits of the fish. “I just try to find areas that I can fish based on the wind direction and speed of the wind on that particular day. You can’t really fish just anywhere on Lake Ontario when it’s windy, you have to find areas that hold big fish in a

somewhat protected area.” deVos is a firefighter with Kingston Fire and Rescue by day, and a pretty serious fishing pro on evenings and weekends; he can reliably be found on one area lake or another every weekend during fishing season, and competes in about one tournament per week. This coming Saturday, he’s heading up to the Renegade Bass tournament on the Ottawa River. “Opening weekend right through to the end of October I’m pretty much booked,” he laughs. All of these tournaments are live release, meaning the fish are thrown back into the water right after being caught. “It’s really, really strongly advised that we try to keep our fish healthy and alive so we can catch them another day,” deVos explains. A total of 41 professional anglers paired with 41 amateurs for this year’s Kingston Canadian Open. The tournament usually lasts for three days, but the second day of this year’s (Friday, Aug. 14) was cancelled due to weather. deVos would like to send a special thank you to his sponsors Hunters Bay Marine; Triton Boats; Set the Hook Baits; Duckett Fishing; Vigor Eyewear; Ultra Tungsten and Sunline.

City declines purchase of federal dock, but eager to preserve public pathway By Bill Hutchins

News – The federal government is selling another one of its waterfront properties in Kingston. Transport Canada has provided notice that the Kingston Coal Dock at 22 Lakewatch Lane, adjacent to the historic 19th century Rockwood asylum, is surplus property that’s now up for sale. “The timing for the sale of the site has not yet been determined,” said Cynthia Beach, city commissioner of corporate and strategic initiatives. The city has no interest in purchasing the coal dock but it does want to ensure an adjacent shoreline walking path is kept open to the public. “We want to make sure any future redevelopment plans that happen along there that that’s preserved as a walkway and public access,” Beach explained. The city currently has a four year lease to use a portion of the site as a public walkway, but there are no guarantees this section of the pathway will remain open beyond that time frame. It’s a well-used trail that connects Lake Ontario Park to Portsmouth Olympic Harbour. “We don’t necessarily need to

own the land to have public access,” Beach explained. The coal dock was originally built in 1878 to supply heating coal to the asylum, which later became known as Kingston Psychiatric Hospital. The concrete capped wharf with steel sheet pile walls became a popular place for swimming once its use as a coal dock ended, but it has been crumbling over the decades. It was closed for safety reasons in March 2011. Transport Canada is now interested in selling the property with a Stage 1 process that first offers the site to other federal departments, crown corporations, provincial and municipal governments. If no interest is shown a Stage 2 process will seek expressions of interest from the general public and aboriginal communities. The dock likely has contaminants due to the historic nature of coal storage in the area. A portion of the pathway that runs alongside the fenced off dock is owned by Transport Canada, and city officials are keen to preserve public access no matter what happens to the property. “Certainly it’s an interest to the city. We do have a waterfront plan we are putting together. We are

looking for strategic opportunities to be able to expand public access to the waterfront. So it’s certainly on our radar,” said Mayor Bryan Paterson. City staff say they will indicate to Transport Canada that Kingston has a “public purpose interest” in the property based on its waterfront pathway policies. This marks the latest in a growing list of federal waterfront divestitures in Kingston. Ottawa is also planning to sell the Marine Museum and historic Dry Dock property on Ontario Street and the former Corrections Canada Regional Headquarters on King Street. “I think it’s pretty clear the province and federal government are interested in divesting some of these waterfront properties,” observed the mayor. City council has consistently declined offers to purchase the properties, citing the financial liability to taxpayers and high maintenance costs. However, council is eager to preserve public access, historical buildings or previous uses on the waterfront properties it doesn’t own. “That’s a high priority for city council,” agreed Coun. Peter Stroud.

over the past decade,” said Dean Byrnes, KEDCO chair, in a statement. “He has worked diligently to attract and support business in Kingston in order to ensure that our community is economically sustainable.” The board has also confirmed that Donna Gillespie will serve as interim CEO while a recruitment campaign for Garrah’s replacement is underway. Meanwhile, KEDCO’s director of tourism, Rob Carnegie, is also resigning. The Kingston-born Carnegie has accepted a similar position as president and CEO of the Florence-Lauderdale convention and visitor bureau in Florence, Alabama. He insists his departure is neither tied to the organizational review nor Garrah’s decision to quit, adding exploring other employment opportunities is a process that takes time. “Something like this is coincidental. It has nothing to do with the media or Kingston First,” he said, referring to criticism the agency has faced. Kingston First, a group of business owners, recently went public with concerns over the perceived lack of tax-funded results that KEDCO was achieving to attract more jobs and investment. “The board and staff are looking for and receiving those criticisms and wanting to be very open and then begin to evaluate and put measures in place that really give the business community confidence,” said Carnegie. Carnegie says he will leave his high-profile job sometime in late September, but main-

tains it remains in good hands with current staff and board members. “KEDCO is not broken,” he insisted, but added the agency wants to “get things right” to address ongoing public and political concerns. Carnegie also commended Garrah for his role in reshaping KEDCO. “He took an organization that was in disrepair many years ago and created an infrastructure where there was transparency and accountability and good communication with businesses and councillors.” As far as his decade-long role is concerned, Carnegie says he’s proud of his work in bolstering sport-tourism in the city. “Building the infrastructure for sport tourism is something I’m extremely happy about. It was about creating an in-house organization that was bidding on events and providing marketing support.” During his tenure, Kingston landed high profile national events such as the Scotties Tournament of Hearts and the National Figure Skating Championships. He says developing partnerships and open communication are keys to success in the tourism role for his successor. “I am proud of tourism in Kingston. The individual that comes into the position will have new ideas, better ideas and take it to the next level.”

Council allows sanctioned street party on Queen’s campus during Homecoming 2015 By Bill Hutchins

News – The rowdy student parties on Aberdeen Street during Homecoming weekend may be a thing of the past. And, councillors want to keep it that way. They eagerly endorsed a plan by the Queen’s University Alma Mater Society (AMS) to host a sanctioned street festival during this October’s alumni gathering. The second annual ReUnion Street Festival will take over one block of Union Street, between Division Street and University Avenue, on Saturday Oct. 24. The day-long event will offer food, a licensed beverage area, entertain-

ment and other activities designed to highlight the university experience. “There is a need for sanctioned programming on the night of Homecoming,” AMS president Kanivanan Chinniah explained to council Aug. 11. He believes that giving crowds something to do will help reduce the need for unsanctioned street parties like the kind synonymous with Aberdeen. “We need to keep people at the festival.” He pointed to the success of the inaugural Union Street closure in 2014 that attracted about 5,000 students and alumni. Councillors applauded the initiative and voted unanimously to en-

dorse the temporary street closure between 1 p.m. Oct. 24 and 6 a.m. Oct. 25. “Kingston police spoke highly of how much better Aberdeen and other streets were when the (ReUnion Street Festival) event was going on,” remarked Coun. Jim Neill. Police made about two dozen arrests on Aberdeen Street last year, but authorities say the unsanctioned Homecoming party was not as boisterous as in previous years. The AMS says every aspect of hosting a sanctioned party has been addressed, including the presence of security guards. One guard for every 50 visitors will be on hand during the event.

Chinniah also confirmed that Live Nation, a well-known professional entertainment management company, has been hired to oversee the festival operations on campus. The same company also organizes Canada Day celebrations on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. The Queen’s alumni weekend is held every fall to welcome back graduates with a series of weekend activities, including the Homecoming football game. While the university has always tried to distance itself from the unsanctioned and costly student parties of the past, it has endorsed this on-campus event, along with support from the Sydenham District

Association. “I want to add my support to this initiative,” added Sydenham district councillor Peter Stroud. The aim of the street festival is to create a controlled party atmosphere. But the cost of staging it isn’t cheap. Chinniah says it cost about $250,000 to host the event last year, and the student government is hoping Queen’s will make a financial contribution this year. In addition to the road closure, council also approved a noise exemption to permit amplified music in the campus area during the event.

Payne hopes to increase environmental awareness as Green Party candidate in Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston riding By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – Anita Payne never really had an interest in politics, especially at the federal level, but when the

Green Party was formed in Canada she found herself getting more and more involved. “I first heard about the Green Party in Europe and then I learned that there was a meeting in 2003 in

Stratford where I was living at the time. I got my green clothing on and went to the meeting and a group of us started the riding association out there,” explained Payne, a former high school science teacher. “At first I was a helper and then when a candidate was needed in 2007 for the provincial election I stepped up.” Payne went on to run two more times provincially in the 2011 and 2014 elections. She moved before both elections, but found herself getting involved with the riding association wherever she went. Now, in her new home on Black Lake in between Perth and Westport, she finds herself immersed in the party once again. “I was trying to find a star candidate to run in this riding and people kept telling me to look in the mirror,” she said. “I hadn’t considered running federally because my main concern is with education and that is more of a provincial matter, but I’m here and available and the riding association here is really strong.” While Payne’s main goal is to win the riding, the riding association knows this is a long shot. Their goal is to run a strong campaign on

a low budget and really focus on raising awareness in the area about a variety of concerns. “Climate change is happening right here in the riding and we see that with extreme weather events, roads being washed out and damage coming from hard rains,” she said. “We have had so much heavy rain this year and everyone can see that and if it continues it will affect agriculture and even tourism.” Payne is concerned that with rising temperatures and increased rain, the riding could see an increase in hazardous blue-green algae in the lakes and water systems. This increase could then lead to a decrease in tourism. “This riding is full of lakes and seasonal residents and if the water quality isn’t good that can be an economic hardship,” she said. “We are also seeing an increase in Lyme disease in our area and as temperatures rise, Lyme bacteria has moved north and so have other invasive species of plants.” In terms of the Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston riding, Payne promises that she will be a strong voice for her constituents and use their opinions and voices to dictate how she votes in parliament. She also points

out that the Green Party is about more than just the environment. “We also have concerns around veteran pensions and farmers, especially in this area,” said Payne. “We need to protect family farms. The future of agriculture is in these farms and we need to take notice of that. We can produce more food locally and import less.” Overall, Payne just hopes to make a difference in the area and she hopes that her campaign will force people to think about some of these issues. “There are a lot of issues to cover and a lot of stuff being thrown out there,” she said. “People need to speak to their candidates and find out where they stand on the issues that matter to them. That is what is most important.” Over the coming weeks, the Kingston Heritage and Frontenac Gazette will profile all candidates in the Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston riding.

Editorial Five things I love about living on a lake Column - As I’ve mentioned before in this column, I live on a lake just north of Sydenham. The ‘house’ Korey and I live in is actually a cottage that is owned by my by in-laws who very generously allow us to live there. When we moved in we weren’t sure it was going to work and we also weren’t sure that after living in the city for a few years and growing up in the GTA we’d be able to handle the isolation, but over time I think we’ve both grown to love our little arrangement. As with any living situation, there are certainly things we aren’t so fond of, but there are also a lot of unique perks that come with living on a lake. Here are a few: ‘Cooler’ temperatures – While this isn’t necessarily a plus in the winter, it definitely is in the summer. We usually get a pretty good breeze off the lake and on hot days there is nothing better. For most of the summer we can simply open the windows and let the fresh air flood in - sometimes that air even smells like campfires.

It’s always pretty – No matter what the season, the lake is always pretty. In the spring, everything comes back to life and birds reappear; in the summer, the trees are green and the lake glistens in the sun; in the fall the foliage is changing colours all around; and yes, even in the winter, the lake and trees are blanketed with a crisp layer of snow. There is also the added bonus of beautiful sunsets. The cottage faces west so we see amazing sunsets all year round. Summer water activities – This One of the many amazing sunsets summer Korey’s family has been all about we’ve seen living on the lake paddle boarding, but if that isn’t your Peace and quiet – Living on the lake cup of tea there is always tubing, paddle boating, kayaking, canoeing, going out is so quiet. Sure we deal with wolf howls on the boat or simply swimming in the every once in a while and sometimes the lake. All of these summer activities are lake is a bit noisy and busy on a weekend, pretty great and very accessible when but for the most part it is just the sound of crickets, waves and sometimes loons. living on a lake. Wildlife – I’ll admit it, I have a bit of I actually find cities kind of annoying a love-hate relationship with wildlife at after living on the lake and I‘m guessing the cottage. Pretty deer, foxes, turtles, I wouldn’t enjoy an overnight stay in chipmunks, loons, herons and even Toronto that much anymore either. The groundhogs – Yes. Snakes, bears, quiet was something that took time to get porcupines, wolves, and fishers – no used to, but now I look forward to it each thanks. I love seeing deer throughout the night. Overall, living on a lake is pretty seasons in the area and I love hearing the loons call each night. I’d never be able to great and I would highly recommend experience either of these things living in it to anyone who has the opportunity. a city, but I probably wouldn’t deal with It may take some getting used to, but I snakes there either. Like I said, good and guarantee you will fall in love with it just like I have. bad things for both.

Kanata Kourier-Standard Letter to the editor

Arnprior Chronicle-Guide “Curiouser and curiouser”, said Alice as she meandered about Wonderland. Arnprior Chronicle-Guide

This quote pops in my mind as I follow the to and fro about the New High School site that has occurred in the press since a letter I wrote to the Editor in June. I wrote it as a reflection on a missed opportunity. But as the public discourse of the last two months demonstrates, the opportunity may not yet be missed. In all of the discussions, I find it curious that a central premise has not been examined. To explain this, I give a generic example not tied to any group except our City Council. Suppose City Council was approached with a project that would infuse 36 million dollars into the City. It would

seem prudent in that case that the City

leaders would turn to their City Staff and West Carleton Review experts on urban planning with the fol-

lowing directive…‘Where in the City should this 36 million dollar project be placed so as to maximize benefits to the City for our future economic , social, and cultural well being’. Those who are experts in the field of urban planning would then proceed to examine all possibilities. The City staff could then provide their recommendations to the City and to the group in charge of the project. Then an informed decision could be made.

stewardship which should be the essence of City Council leadership. Not to do so, which is the case in the particular example of the New School site, is imprudent and myopic. In a Province that is dealing with struggling economic times, a grant of 36 million dollars will not occur again for a very long time. Which brings me back to Alice in Wonderland and the words of the White Rabbit…”I’m late, I’m late, for a very important date”. However, Kingston is not Wonderland so perhaps it is not too late.

8 Kingston Heritage - Thursday, August 27, 2015

In Our Opinion

Council should revisit prospect of new high school at Memorial Centre Over the last couple of months, the Kingston Heritage has received a number of letters to the editor urging Kingston City Council to reconsider allowing the Limestone District School Board (LDSB) to build a new high school on the site of the Memorial Centre. The school is intended to amalgamate Kingston and Queen Elizabeth Collegiate and Vocational Institutes, as well as Module Vanier, a French Immersion school for Grades 7 and 8 currently located in KCVI. In 2014, the Ontario Ministry of Education provided the Board with $36 million for the construction of a new building that will accommodate 1,340 students – the number currently enrolled in all three schools. The LDSB initially indicated that the Memorial Centre site, which is relatively equidistant between KCVI and QECVI, was their top choice in terms of location; however, Kingston City Council vetoed this idea, feeling the Memorial Centre should be preserved as is: they said it provides much-needed green space for the Williamsville neighbourhood, honours war veterans; and serves as a prime location for the Fall Fair and weekly Sunday Farmers’ Market. The Board thus decided to build a new intermediate and secondary school at the current QEVCI site, and many families in the KCVI neighbourhood are understandably disappointed that the school their children will be expected to attend is located so far away. There are others who argue in favour of the QECVI location, noting that youths living in the more economically disadvantaged neighbourhood around the school do not need another hurdle when it comes to attending and eventually finishing high school. Either way, this issue is obviously very important to Kingstonians, so perhaps a more informed decision is called for on the part of City Council before ground is officially broken for the new school. For example, public meetings could be held in both affected neighbourhoods, so the City can hear first-hand the ideas and concerns of residents. Council could also instruct staff to conduct a study related to how exactly the Memorial Centre area would be altered by a new school – perhaps it wouldn’t be so drastic as they’re currently assuming. Another potential study could look at how youths in each neighbourhood would be affected by a school at the M-Centre vs. QECVI. Another factor to consider is how much closer LCVI is to many homes in the current KCVI neighbourhood when compared to QECVI. We’ve already heard from a number of KC-area parents who say they’ll simply send their kids to LC because it’s within walking distance of their houses. Not to mention the fact that many students from wealthier families will likely choose to attend Leahurst College, a new private school also located in Kingston’s downtown core. Sure, the new school is being built to accommodate 1,340 students, but how many of those are likely end up there realistically speaking? Like it or not, the issue of where the new downtown high school will be located isn’t going away any time soon. This is a decision that will significantly affect the lives many Kingstonians, and one that should require a good deal of research and thought.

News – Paving your front lawn to add another parking space is usually illegal in Kingston, but the city may be willing to bend the rules to accommodate some homeowners. Councillors have adopted a recommendation from the Municipal Accessibility Advisory Committee (MAAC) that aims to allow homeowners with mobility challenges to create single front yard parking pads.

1,000 Some residents with disabilities have great difficulty accommodating access buses or taxis at their homes, and face great difficulty parking near their homes. Creating a parking space in the front yard could help with those mobility issues, said Coun. Jim Neill, who strongly supports the initiative. He first raised the issue in a motion to the city’s environment, transportation and infrastructure committee last May. It was rejected in a tie vote.

However, the once-dead issue resurfaced at MAAC and the same recommendation returned to city hall Aug. 11. That’s when councillors agreed the parking pad idea is worthy of more study before it’s officially adopted. The recommendation asks staff to present options to allow front yard parking pads on a “case by case” basis and to hold a public meeting on the matter. Several councillors applaud the initiative if it will assist a resident

Kingston looks at parking on front yards to assist those with disabilities to remain in their home. Some have even suggested it’s a human rights issue the city can’t deny. However, Coun. Rob Hutchison has “grave concerns” with the plan. He worries that it may not be welcomed by neighbours. “People in general don’t want to live in a parking lot.” There are also concerns about paving over the municipal rightof-way on front lawns, which could restrict access to underground utili-

ties. He also questions what happens to the parking space if the resident moves out and the new occupants don’t meet the same accessibility requirements. “Once you put the pad in how do you take it out for the person who follows?” Coun. Neill doesn’t think the policy would have a negative impact, and predicts only a couple of dozen homeowners would take advantage of installing parking pads if they were legalized for those with accessibility challenges. He compared this issue with a hotly-debated topic a few years ago when council decided to allow backyard hens in the urban part of the city. “After all that debate only a handful of residents actually got permits,” he added. The province’s updated accessibility standards do not offer municipalities much guidance to the question of whether they must accommodate persons with disabilities if they want to create a front yard parking space. However, the city’s legal department suggested the law is developing to reflect all issues of human rights within the design of public space.

staff, public works employees, contractors and numerous volunteers were happy to help. “It has been a long road but we made it,” said Mark Segsworth, Public Works manager for the township. “I knew we would make the grand opening today and we did because of all the hardworking people involved in this project.” The museum aims to represent the four townships that amalgamated to make South Frontenac – Loughborough, Bedford, Portland and Storrington. Currently, displays within the museum showcase old furniture from McMullen Manor in Verona, items

It is out of print now, but it is a part of the history of Verona.” Now, with the grand opening out of the way, Stewart is already looking to the future for the museum. She hopes that community members take interest in the museum and she hopes to see an expansion in the future. “I feel great about this project and this day and we are so happy with what we have accomplished, but expanding would be nice. We’ll see what the future holds.” The South Frontenac Museum will be open on Aug. 28 for the 150th anniversary celebrations in Frontenac County, but regular hours have not been set yet.

There is just so much history out here.” The museum also includes an old typewriter that belonged to local poet and author Dorothy Murray Sliter, who even wrote a book about Verona, her hometown. “We have a first edition of ‘The Friendly Village’ and I think that is pretty special,” said Stewart. “It is nice

News – After more than a decade of work, the dream of the South Frontenac Museum is finally a reality. On Aug. 15, members of the Portland and District Heritage Society, South Frontenac mayor Ron Vandewal and about 100 community members gathered in Hartington to celebrate the grand opening of the new museum and congratulate those who made it happen. “This is a perfect example of the strength in our community. That is the motto of the township and it shows in this project,” said Vandewal. “For years and years dedicated volunteers have been working to preserve the history of the former townships and now it can be displayed for everyone to see.” Plans for the museum date back to 2001 when a group of five individuals got together and came up with the idea at a cottage in Verona. The project was then registered in 2002 and fundraising began. “We did everything we could to raise money,” said Barb Stewart, chair of the Heritage Society. “We quickly realized that we needed a piece of property owned by the township in order to get off the ground and luckily we had a lot of help.” Former mayor of South Frontenac Gary Davison got involved with the cause and helped the group secure a building; in 2012, the group moved into an old school-

house in Hartington. The building itself is also historical and dates back to 1903. “It was an old schoolhouse and then a library and then a clothing shop,” explained Stewart. “It needed some work, but we got there and we are happy to be here today.” The building underwent a lot of work including new windows, an accessibility ramp and interior work, but Township

10 things that have defined Frontenac County in 150 years By Craig Bakay

R0013429733

News — Frontenac County, like any municipality, has been shaped by its history, both recently and more than a century ago. In light of the County celebrating its 150th anniversary this month, here are a few things (in no particular order) that have been instrumental in making it what it is today. 1. Geography Frontenac County consists of three distinct geographical zones: The Islands in the St. Lawrence River; The St. Lawrence Lowlands and the northern Canadian Shield. Each area brings its own contributions and concerns. The Islands necessitate ferry operations. The St. Lawrence Lowlands have a long history of agriculture and provide gravel and limestone for building. The Canadian Shield tends to be an economic challenge but rich stands of timber created the major economic development that fueled the County’s early years. 2. Lumber Arguably, the first real ‘industry’ in the Frontenacs was lumber. Before there was a network of railroads, logs were floated along a variety of natural waterways, feeding a plethora of mills, the remnants of which are still in evidence today in places like

Sydenham, Parham and Verona. The Bellrock area in particular was a hub of activity, although very little remains of a once-thriving practice. Still, there are plenty of deadheads in Frontenac lakes and rivers left over from bygone days. 3. Railroads Anybody who’s waited in line at the Tichborne crossing for 10-15 minutes while a CP train of seemingly endless freight cars goes by might think that rail is still a major force in the Frontenacs. However, all of the stations that once thrived here have long since been torn down. It wasn’t always so. Sharbot Lake was once a major destination for both the Kingston & Pembroke and CP lines. The K & P in particular made stops in Robertsville, Clarendon, Oso, Sharbot Lake, Olden, Tichborne, Hinchinbrooke, Godfrey, Verona, Hartington, Harrowsmith and Murvale. But when rail was supplanted by the automobile, many villages and hamlets like Arden lost their major economic driver. However, long after the tracks were torn up, the old rail beds have found new life, as a multi-purpose trail network. 4. Agriculture Like the lumber industry and railroads, agriculture in Frontenac County is somewhat less important than it once was but there are still plenty of via-

ble farming operations — dairy, beef, sheep, market gardening, beekeeping and a variety of niche operations. Most of the farming operations have always been in the south, where the St. Lawrence Lowlands provided better yields than the less-than-optimal ‘soil’ of the Canadian Shield, which proved challenging for those who tried to eke out a living on it. But, a curious side effect of the decline of agriculture has been the development of subdivisions, particularly in South Frontenac Township, as the land once cleared for farm fields got carved up to provide country homes, even to the point where legislation was required to save the remaining prime agricultural space. A rather recent boom industry, though has been maple syrup, both in larger commercial operations and as a hobby. 5. Tourism/Cottage Life All four townships live or die economically on tourism. Be it seasonal cottagers, hunters, anglers, hikers, bikers, boaters, festival goers or just plain nature lovers, Frontenac County is clearly a prime destination for vacation time. There are gorgeous lakes and waterways in rare abundance as well as plentiful wildlife in natural habitats. North Frontenac has even been dedicated as a Dark Skies Preserve, bringing a new wave of astronomy buffs to what is rapidly becoming an international destination. And truth be told, the landscape is what attracted most of us here in the first place, and arguably the biggest reason why we stay. 6. First Nations Long before Europeans even heard of Canada, the area now known as Frontenac County was home to a number of First Nations, primarily the Anishinaabe and in particular the Algonquin and Ardoch peoples. Few gatherings in the County, are complete without an Algonquin presence, especially drum circles. The Silver Lake Powwow (happening Aug. 29 - 30), now in its 21st year, continues to draw crowds from around the world. But perhaps the First Nations’ most important contribution is their relationship with the land; they see themselves as its stewards, and this philosophy has filtered down to many of the ‘settlers’ who have chosen to make this land their home. 7. United Empire Loyalists After the American Revolution in the late 1700s, many residents of the northern states remained loyal to the British Crown, and some 10,000 of them came to Upper Canada, where many were granted home-

steads. The result of this was a predominantly English-speaking population west of the Quebec border. They brought with them their traditions, values and work ethic, establishing settlements and travel networks, most of which still exist to this day. 8. Amalgamation As the 20th Century came to a close, the government of Ontario decided it had too many municipalities and forced amalgamation on its citizens. Frontenac County went from 15 townships to four, literally overnight. The much-ballyhooed tax savings due to economies of scale hasn’t really panned out as promised but the four townships — North Frontenac, Central Frontenac, South Frontenac and Frontenac Islands — have managed to make strides in the areas of roads, waste management and landuse planning that likely wouldn’t have been possible otherwise. 9. Music, festivals and other gatherings Let’s start with the Parham Fair, which turns 123 years old this year and is one of the oldest country fairs in Canada. The Blue Skies Music Festival has been going since Oskar Graf and Greg Forbes built a stage on Graf’s back 40 way back in 1973. Since 1980, you have to win a lottery to get a camping pass at it. The Verona Cattail Festival and Silver Lake Powwow have each entered their third decades. Music has long been a part of Frontenac County, dating back to when the Trousdales would close the bakery/hardware store in Sydenham early on Saturdays so that the local musicians could play for a weekly street dance. And we defy anyone to prove that Frontenac County doesn’t have more fiddles per capita than any other county in Ontario. 10. Butter tarts, blueberries and bake sales While it may be a stretch to define any particular cuisine as typically Frontenac County, one thing you’re likely to see any time baked goods are presented is the ubiquitous butter tart. With or without raisins, the County butter tart tends not to be runny, with a thick crust containing one fold. And while blueberries may exist in other parts of the country, the vast majority of roadside stands selling them seem to be along our section of Hwy. 7. Of course many of those blueberries find their way into pies and tarts. And where do those pies and tarts get sold — at bake sales of course. Churches, seniors groups, various and sundry organizations . . . we have a lot of bake sales.

Make school day mornings easier School day mornings can be hectic, as getting kids ready for school and out the door on time is not always easy. Working parents may find school day mornings especially difficult, as their own work schedules can make mornings feel even more rushed. Fortunately, parents can employ several strategies to free up time in the morning so everyone starts their days off in a more relaxing atmosphere. • Wake up earlier. Sleep might seem like a precious commodity, but waking up just 10 to 15 minutes earlier can remove some of the stress from weekday mornings without costing you a lot of sack time. Let kids sleep in until their normal wakeup time, using your extra 10 or 15 minutes to shower or enjoy your morning cup of coffee before the house is abuzz with activity. • Tackle certain chores the night before. Delaying certain chores until you wake up makes for a hectic morning, so tackle as many morning chores as possible before you go to bed for the night. Prepare school lunches, lay clothes out for yourself and your children, and make sure kids have their backpacks packed and ready to go before they go to bed. Each of these things may only

take a few minutes, but when left for the morning, they can add up to a substantial amount of time. • Encourage youngsters to pick up the pace. Some people are morning people, while others dread setting their alarms for early morning hours. Kids who fall into the latter group may drag their feet in the morning, but parents should offer encouragement when kids are moving slowly in the morning. Allowing your frustration to show may only make kids less fond of mornings, so remind them as nicely as possible that everyone has a schedule to stick to if they seem to be dragging their feet. • Keep the television off. If watching the television is ingrained in your morning routine, try going a few days without it to see if this makes it easier to get out the door on time. Kids might grow distracted by morning cartoons, and even adults may get caught up in morning news shows or other forecasts. Eliminating television from your morning routine can save time and also may help your family grow closer, as you will have more distractionfree time to speak to one another. In addition to turning off the televi-

sion, resist the urge to turn on your devices or scan work emails when getting ready in the morning.

Parents know that school day mornings can be hectic. But there are several ways to make such

mornings go more smoothly so everyone gets where they need to be on time.

Strategies to help kids focus on their schoolwork Some youngsters experience difficulty when the time comes to focus on their schoolwork. Such difficulties may be linked to a variety of factors, and parents can be overwhelmed as they attempt to identify the root cause of their youngsters’ struggles in the classroom. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, roughly 6.4 million American children between the ages of four and 17 have been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD. ADHD most often occurs in children, and these children may have difficulty with concentrating, paying attention, staying organized, and remembering details. But not all children struggling to focus on their studies have ADHD. Parents who want to help their kids overcome their issues with regard to focusing can consider a host of approaches and strategies. • Speak with a qualified healthcare professional. Because ADHD is so common, parents should seek the opinion of a licensed healthcare professional to determine if their child has the disorder. According to the National Resource Center on ADHD (www. help4adhd.org), psychiatrists, pediatri-

cians, neurologists, psychologists, and certain licensed counselors or therapists are qualified to diagnose ADHD. Determining if a child has ADHD is a great first step toward helping that youngster overcome his or her struggles in the classroom. A qualified healthcare professional can help develop a strategy to improve focus, and that may include prescribing medication to improve the child’s ability to concentrate. • Speak with your child’s teacher. Students who don’t have ADHD can still have trouble focusing on their schoolwork, and parents of such students may want to speak to their children’s teachers to solve the problem. Educators have significant experience dealing with students who have trouble focusing, and they may be able to make certain suggestions to help kids focus on their work. • Minimize distractions at home. Some kids may do well in class but find it hard to focus once they arrive home. That’s because home often has far more distractions than the classroom. Once the time comes for your child to do his or her homework, minimize distractions that can com-

promise his or her ability to focus. Turn off the television and take kids’ phones away if they have their own phones. During homework time, only allow them to use their computers for their lessons and not to connect with friends via social media. Parents also should make sure they aren’t the distraction. Let kids do their work in peace and quiet, offering to help if need be, but steering clear of kids work areas so they are encouraged to focus and not strike up conversations with mom or dad. • Make lists. Some kids focus better when they know exactly what they have to do. Encourage such youngsters to make lists of their assignments and check items off as they are completed. Checking items off can give kids a sense of accomplishment, which can motivate them to stay focused on their schoolwork going forward. • Encourage breaks. A breather every so often can help kids avoid growing tired. Make sure kids don’t take up another task, such as playing video games or watching television, during their breaks. But keep in mind

that standing up every so often to walk around or get a glass of water

can help them stay sharp and energized over the long haul.

How to save on school supplies to store their supplies in a predetermined area once the school year ends, as this will make next year’s inventory that much easier to examine and assess. • Spend more now to save later. While inexpensive supplies can be hard to resist, such items likely won’t withstand the test of time, forcing you to spend time and money each year buying replacement supplies. Paying more now for certain items, including stronger backpacks and more highly rated calculators, may end up saving you money in the long run, even if the initial pill is somewhat tough to swallow. • Use technology to your advantage. Department stores and businesses that sell school supplies, such as pharmacies and office stores, may or may not discount too many items once back to school season hits full swing. But savvy parents can still find deals by using technology to their advantage when shopping for school supplies. Download apps like RetailMeNot to your smartphone and enable its updates so your phone essentially notifies you of any discounts the moment you walk into a given store. If you don’t receive any updates, search for discounts via the app or the Internet as you shop. Chances are strong that there are deals to be had, even if you don’t learn of the deals until you arrive at the store. School supplies can be expensive, but parents can employ several strategies to save on school supplies now and in the future

Back to school season can be as expensive for parents as it is exciting for students. Once the initial letdown of the end of summer vacation wears off, many kids are excited to return to school, where they can see their friends, study their favorite subjects and participate in extracurricular activities. Parents of school-aged youngsters may share in that excitement while also knowing that back to school season can stretch their budgets. One of the ways to salvage those budgets is to save on school supplies. Fortunately, there are several ways parents can do just that. • Be patient. Shopping early can save shoppers money in many instances, but parents may benefit by exercising patience when it comes to buying school supplies for their children. Teachers often give students lists of supplies they will need for each class, and parents who wait to receive such lists can avoid spending money on items their kids won’t need. Even if you wait it out, you may be able to get a head start, as some teachers may post supply lists on school websites, while others might email lists to parents before back to school season hits full swing. • Take inventory. If you have more than one child, chances are you already have lots of school supplies around the house. Dust off kids’ backpacks and study areas from last school year to determine which supplies you need to buy and which you already have. Going forward, encourage kids

945 GARDINERS RD., KINGSTON (613) 384-4447 www.sears.ca 20 Kingston Heritage - Thursday, August 27, 2015

Nowadays, school supplies differ greatly from the markers, protractors and pencil cases required just a few decades ago. Many classrooms are now geared toward digital learning, and items such as tablets, smartboards and laptop computers are essential to enhancing students’ classroom experiences. It’s no surprise then that many students require a long list of tech products and applications to keep up with their studies. According to a Project Tomorrow report titled “The New Digital Playbook: Understanding the Spectrum of Students’ Activities and Aspirations,” a large percentage of students have access to various mobile devices in the classroom. Smartphones, laptops, tablets, and digital readers are some of the more commonly used devices in modern classrooms, and such usage is not limited to older students, as the report noted significant penetration of mobile devices among the primary grades, even in K-2. To enhance the learning experience found in school, parents may want to allow access to such devices at home. The following are some tech items to consider. • Tablet: Android and Apple-based tablets give students easy access to a variety of applications and web connectivity. Their portability makes them a convenient way of staying connected both inside and outside the home. Many tablets can be enhanced with plug-in keyboards that make typing easier. Tablets can be used to take notes, browse the Internet, check email, and maintain correspondence with classmates via messaging applications. • Smartphone: Smartphones now have many

of the same capabilities of tablets, albeit in smaller packages. Parents may need to customize safety settings on phones to keep students secure, but the devices can be valuable tools in keeping tabs on kids’ whereabouts. • Laptop: Tablets and smartphones may have reduced consumer dependency on laptop and desktop computers, but traditional computers remain a valuable learning tool. Their larger screen sizes and mouse/keyboard features can make it easier for students to spend more time working on projects that require a lot of typing. Since many teachers now require assignments be typewritten or completed online, students may need to have a computer at home. Peripherals, such as a printer and an external hard drive, may prove useful as well. • App access: Students may require different apps to complete their assignments and stay organized. Calendar functions, newspaper apps and calculators can provide the boosts kids need to perform well and stay organized. Mobile devices are pre-loaded with stores where users can purchase applications, such as the App Store on Apple devices and Google Play on Google-based mobile products. However, users will still need to establish an account, which is typically linked to a credit card. If parents do not feel comfortable giving children free rein, they can set parameters on app purchases or buy pre-paid app gift cards to avoid excessive charges on credit cards. Technology is pervasive in the classroom, and students may need various digital devices to make the grade.

Meaning of patience revealed for Mary

“That girl has the patience of Job,” Mother said. She said it often enough of my sister Audrey, and I had no idea who Job was, that I was determined to find out what the word patience meant. If Audrey had an abundance of it, maybe I could claim to have it too, since we were sisters, and it seemed to be something of great value. And so one day, just before school was let out for the summer, I asked Miss Crosby if she would look up the word ‘patience’ in the big black dictionary that sat on the corner of her desk. She read me the description, which had big words like ‘ tolerance and endurance’ in it. I was still none the wiser, and I decided Job was someone Mother knew in Renfrew, because there certainly was nobody out in Northcote by the name of Job. At any rate, my older sister Audrey had the same trait as this fellow Job. And then one day, a discussion around the supper table sent me into a panic, and I couldn’t even eat my piece of raspberry pie, which was my favourite. Audrey was finished at the Northcote School, and like so many girls from the farms around, that meant

going off to Renfrew and doing housework for the rich people. I couldn’t stop the tears from rolling down my face right onto the pie in front of me. Audrey put her arm around my shoulders and told me that day was a long way off, and I wasn’t to fret about it. She was needed on the farm, she said, and that’s where she would be staying. I asked her to ‘promise and hope to die’ which was right up there in importance with asking God for a special favour. She again assured me, she would be right at home for a long time to come. After supper, and after the kitchen had been redded up, I went out to the grape arbour and sat in the big two seater swing, and started to think about all the things I would miss if my beloved sister Audrey ever left me. Who would sing to me at night when we went to bed? Whose arm would reach out across the bed roll, and keep me safe when the whippoorwills sang their eerie songs when it was black as pitch outside, and I was terrified they would get in the house? And who would sit with me in the long grass and pull dandelion stems, then split them and roll them down into tight curls, and make up stories about how the women of long, long ago got the idea of curling their hair from the dandelions? And I thought of the many times Audrey and I stretched out on the grass on a summer’s day when the sky was full of soft white clouds. And we would “ see” dogs, fierce lions, and old men’s faces, as the clouds shifted taking on new shapes as the gentle wind

pushed them into different forms. And Audrey would make up stories about the things we read in the clouds, and often I would doze off, filled with a fierce love of a sister who found time to spend with a much younger sister, when there were other things she would much rather be doing. It was Audrey who defied anyone at the Northcote School to pick on me...even bad Marguirite got to know what it was like to be on the receiving end of a tongue lashing if she made fun of my hand-me-down clothes, or my long red ringlets. Wasn’t it Audrey who, when I asked, would sit with me in the very swing I was in at that moment, and tell me imaginary stories of far off lands, and people who spoke in different tongues, and wore different clothes. And when I would say, ‘ tell me another one Audrey’, she would simply let out a long sigh, and begin another story. And wasn’t it Audrey, who would take the book I had chosen from the Renfrew Library, with big words I couldn’t read, and sit with me at the kitchen table before bedtime, and read to me, when I knew she would much rather be reading her own book? And wasn’t it Audrey, even knowing I had little talent, spent hours trying to teach me

how to make French Knots, and daisies on the end of flour bag tea towels? And she would praise me and say how clever I was. As I sat in the swing that day, seeing in my mind’s eye, all the things my sister Audrey did for me, and the hours she spent with me, I knew then what mother meant when she said, “That girl has the patience of Job.” Audrey certainly, as far as I was concerned, had patience. Sadly, I never did find out who that guy Job was! Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Many things change over time By Margaret Knott

Heritage News- Yes, ferry transportation is the single most important issue facing Wolfe Island, and, on an ongoing basis, Howe Island. Recently I was reminded by a member of the community that as far as the Wolfe Island service is concerned, islanders would not be struggling if the Township had agreed years ago that “a lengthened ferry” was the best solution to increasing much needed capacity. Perhaps in hindsight that solution offered by MTO should have been immediately accepted. A major concern was a possible increase in turn around times and reaching capacity very quickly again, which

led to a township resolution for a two- boat -solution (The Wolfe Islander and a 2nd new ferry). The recognition by the township that a lengthened ferry was MTO’s preferred solution came too late. Township officials went back to MTO with a request that the province move forward with the plan to lengthen the Wolfe Islander III which , we were told, was rather unceremoniously refused. So what happened was neither a lengthened boat nor a second one. Now Islanders wait for the Wolfe Islander, with a new bridge, to come home, and for a second ferry, of 75 cars. Many things have changed over time. All land facilities are being updated and improved. Frontenac Islands officials and the public enjoy a good relationship and more transparency with local MTO personnel and meet with them on a

Brush disposal is Saturday at the site This is a big deal… This is a Big change … Long time islanders remember years past when garbage was left outside the gate for bird and rodents, whatever, to tear apart before it was cleared away and dumped into the great hole in the ground. Now they have been working hard for quite some time, with the dedicated help of Mae and her team, at recycling and reducing what is actual garbage from what in the future will be hauled off the island. Summer residents for the most part come from places where recycling , reducing and composting , tagged bags and bins are the norm, setting an example for others new to sorting, etc .

regular basis. All of which led to the extras offered to island residents (shuttle bus, extra parking) and the service of wonderful students during this difficult period. Marysville businesses are struggling because the Wolfe Islander is out of service to the village and Amherst Island’s smaller, Frontenac II, ferry is in service not to the village but to the winter dock. WI residents believe the Wolfe Islander III will not be back until Thanksgiving. “Which one,” they ask, “theirs (American) or ours?” 2. Amid all this Wolfe Islanders are preparing to transition from having an incredible land fill site to a Recycling and Transfer Station. The date for closing the waste site is September 8th and its reopening with waste bins instead, is Wedneday Sept. 9th. Waste disposed of must be in bags, nothing loose is permitted. If it doesn’t fit in a bag it does not go in a bin. Shingles are no longer accepted. Organic compost bins are at the site. It is hoped that using them reduces the amount of

Man prepares to sail non-stop around the globe solo The 60-foot open class ocean racing yacht O Canada has been visiting the Kingston Yacht Club since Aug. 13. Skipper Eric Holden is preparing to enter the Vendee Globe, which is an around the world, non stop solo sailing race from France. While in Kingston last weekend, the crew welcomed visitors to tour the boat for free and they also took people for sailing for fund raising purposes. The crew sailed the boat from Vancouver via the Panama canal to tour the Great Lakes. When they leave Kingston they will sail to Toronto and then return to Halifax before crossing the Atlantic for some preparation races prior to the Vendee Globe. Holden hopes to be the first Canadian to complete the Vendee Globe. Two have tried previously. Gerry Roufs was lost at sea and Derek Hatfield was forced to retire from the race when his boat was damaged. Photos/John Harman

After The News: Casementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest an art rock adventure in more ways than one By Craig Bakay

News â&#x20AC;&#x201D; At one point, when Verona rocker Lee Casement began collecting tunes for his latest project, After The News, he was feeling in somewhat of a folk-rock mood. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The songs were written sorta folky, just me and an acoustic guitar,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But when we got into the studio (with long-time collaborator Shaun Weima at the controls) it became more ambient folk . . . a lotta space in there.â&#x20AC;? As a result, only one of the seven songs on the CD, Sunday, really has a folk-rock feel. As for the rest, well, the term Art Rock seems more appropriate. Listening to the CD, one gets the feeling this could have come from any number of bands that seem to pop up out of the student body at the Ontario College of Art every couple of years or so.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I guess it shows you what we enjoy,â&#x20AC;? said Casement with a laugh. Indeed, there are several â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;artâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; connections with this project. The second track, with lyrics by Lisa Menard, is called Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m Drawing You. The cover photo is sculptor Stefan Duerstâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Godfrey forge and the video for the opening track, Stand, was filmed at Duerstâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s studio and sculpture garden. Promotional photos were also shot there. You can see the video here: https://www.youtube. com/watch?v=Jelf0mNixEg. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stefanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kids and my kids are friends,â&#x20AC;? Casement said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And we felt his art fit the project nicely.â&#x20AC;? This project, much like Casementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s previous â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;In The Guestroomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; efforts, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t intended to be a â&#x20AC;&#x153;proper bandâ&#x20AC;? but gigs just started presenting themselves. Casement and Weima were joined by vo-

calists Jamie Young, and Casementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cousin, Menard along with several other musicians for a CD release party in Bellrock, which led to the Westport Musicfest and a spot at the Frontenac County 150th Anniversary Celebration Aug. 30 in Harrowsmith. We got a lot of positive feedback from the Westport show,â&#x20AC;? Casement said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(Organizer) Seamus Cowan said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;you guys came out of nowhereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and the feedback just keeps filtering in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When somebody says â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;great showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; right after, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one thing but when that keeps coming weeks after, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something else again.â&#x20AC;? Casement wrote six of the seven songs, ex-

cept for the lyrics on Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m Drawing You. The first four tracks are very spacey art rock, followed by the aforementioned Sunday, which has a nice rather bouncy beat in the folk rock tradition. The next song, Morning Hymn (Wake Up) feels like it might have been recorded in the same barn Neil Young and the Stray Gators used to record Harvest, complete with Weima playing pedal steel parts on a Telecaster with a bow. The final cut is This Play, is a Weima composition that begins with a bit of Celtic influence a la Lindisfarne before finally settling into the spacey theme of the rest of the CD.

KCVI graduate explores the arctic and learns more than she expected By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – After graduating from KCVI this past spring, 17-year-old Krystyna Urbancic was looking for a summer program that would allow her to travel, have fun and learn something. Initially she had a bit of trouble finding something that was right for her, but then she learned about Students on Ice. “It seemed like such a unique opportunity and after reading all about it I applied right away,” said Urbancic. “I was accepted to the program and it really was everything I hoped for. I fell in love with the arctic and can’t wait to go back.” Urbancic joined more than 100 other high school and university students from across Canada and around the world for the two-week expedition to Greenland and the Canadian High Arctic. Students were accompanied by 80 educators, scientists, artists, Inuit leaders, and polar explorers who led workshops, panels and hands-on lessons throughout the journey. “We learned about arctic culture, climate change, wildlife, the biodiversity of the land and things like that,” explained Urbancic. “On the landings, we did a variety of things like art work, botany, and whale watching. We would also go into different communities throughout the arctic and we got kind of immersed in their culture and way of life.” This expedition marked the 15th anniversary for Students on Ice, an award-winning organization offering unique and inspiring educational expeditions to the Antarctic and the Arctic. Since 2000, Student on Ice has taken more than 2,500 youth from 52 countries to the Polar Regions. Urbancic wasn’t really sure what to expect when she began the journey, but she definitely took more away from the experience than she initially thought

she would: “One of the things that had a really big impact on me was the living conditions in northern Canada. They struggle a lot up there and they have so little. They have to hunt for survival and everything costs so much up there – a case of water bottles was $150. We saw such a contrast between our Canada and theirs and it was really shocking and really affected me.” The group also visited Greenland and Urbancic was surprised to see the contrast in living conditions between northern Canada and Greenland. “Greenland is subsidized by the Danish government and that was evident. When we crossed over to Canada we saw the contrast of how difficult their living conditions are. It really showed that everything we are taught in school about indigenous cultures and how they live is not necessarily true.” While this experience was a little shocking and unexpected for Urbancic, she is happy she had the opportunity to see it for herself. She is also happy she had the opportunity to meet so many new and interesting people on the trip. “There were some truly incredible people on the ship and it was so amazing being able to form friendships with those people,” she said. “You get so close to these individuals and the things you see together are just incredible. The experience was fantastic and I hope to stay in contact with these people for many years to come.” Now, after returning from the trip, Urbancic is preparing for her first year at Dalhousie University. She hopes to study environmental science, marine biology or even botany; she also hopes to return to the arctic someday soon. “I’ve fallen in love with the arctic. Normally people don’t get the chance to see something like this and

I think it is really important, especially at a young age, to get out there and explore different cultures and see different things. It is worth it.” To learn more about Students on Ice visit www. studentsonice.com

Krystyna Urbancic, 17, took part in the Students on Ice expedition to the Arctic July 27 to Aug. 10.

150+ years of farming in Frontenac County mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – Frontenac County is celebrating its 150th anniversary at the end of this month, and while this is an incredible milestone, there are some families who have even more history in the area than the county itself. “My great-great grandfather came to the Battersea area in 1820 and settled on a farm just a little way from here,” said Ron Sleeth, owner and operator of Eilevale Farm in Battersea. “We were actually in the area 50 years before the county was created, but we’ve been here on this farm land for about 95 years so they have us beat there.” Sleeth is a fifth generation farmer and knew from a young age that he wanted to live and work on the land his grandparents occupied at the time. He lived with his family in the village of Battersea, but he remembers spending most of his time on the farm. “My grandmother was a school teacher and I liked living on the farm more than in town,” he said. “I loved the cows right from the start and they are still my favourite.” Eilevale is home to 75 cows and Sleeth milks about 30 of them each day with the help of his son, Ron, and his grandson, Brody, who hopes to one day become the seventh generation to farm the land. Sleeth’s youngest son, Paul, is also involved in the farm, but in a different way.

“He’s a veterinarian in Winchester and he helps us with the cows. We have extra because we do embryo transfer work with our cows,” explained Sleeth. “It is much more scientific than it used to be and if someone told me 25 years ago that we’d be doing this I’d think they were crazy.” Science is just one of the many ways the farm has changed over the years; Sleeth has also seen significant changes to corn and soy beans, advancements in farming equipment and even an increase in the amount of milk cows produce during his farming career. “The amount of milk the cows give is about two to three times what they gave when I was growing up. That is because of genetics and superior feeding of the animals. They give about 16-17 thousand litres of milk a year,” he said. With all of this milk production, Sleeth makes a point to donate about 4,000 litres of milk a year to local food banks – it is just one of the many things he does to give back to the community. “My grandmother and my aunt always believed in giving back and that stuck with me,” said Sleeth. “Their thought was that the county was good to them so they had to give back and my grandmother did that as a school teacher for a number of years.” This idea of giving back earned Sleeth and his farm a Family Farm Award from BMO in 2014 and also contributes to Sleeth’s involve-

Ron Sleeth and his grandson Brody at the family farm in Battersea. ment in municipal politics. Sleeth was the reeve and warden of Frontenac County at one point and has held the position of councillor for the Storrington district of South Frontenac for a number of years. “I’ve always wanted to be involved and it only makes sense to serve the community that allows you to prosper,” he said. While Sleeth and his family

have had a number of great years on the farm, he is concerned about the future of it and whether or not it will be sustainable for his grandson and the generations to come. “The biggest threat is free-trade talks and whether or not the government is willing to protect supply management for dairy farmers and chicken farmers,” he said. “Without farms we have no food

and unfortunately a lot of people don’t understand that.” For now, Sleeth isn’t thinking about the future too much; instead he is focused on celebrating the history of Frontenac County. “I am really excited about the 150th anniversary and all of the celebrations,” he said. “The County is older than Canada and that is crazy to think about.”

While these projects are all fantastic and essential to our growing healthcare system, maintaining the basic infrastructure of our hospitals is also important. With this constant demand for maintenance in mind, MPP for Kingston and the Islands, Sophie Kiwala, announced on Aug. 19 that the province is investing over $8 million to help Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hospitals address their maintenance needs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is easy to be focused on new capital projects, but the fact is that in between those projects and even

during them there are still significant maintenance costs that need to be looked after,â&#x20AC;? said Kiwala. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This funding means that we can continue to keep our hospitals in the best possible state; anything that we can do to provide the best possible care to our patients in Kingston is very important to concentrate on.â&#x20AC;? The funds come from Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Health Infrastructure Renewal Fund (HIRF) which was established in 1999 to assist hospitals. Initially, hospitals had to come up with a local share to receive funds, but in 2004 this requirement ended and hospitals have been able to make significant improvements to their infrastructure as a result. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that long ago that Hotel Dieu was only receiving $100,000 a year so this allocation of funds is very welcomed,â&#x20AC;? said R0013431264_0827

38 Kingston Heritage - Thursday, August 27, 2015

How college students can eat healthy If asked to reflect on their college years, many graduates likely would not recall healthy eating habits. College students are often pressed for time and short on funds, so a nutritious diet is often sacrificed for the sake of convenience and cost. But a healthy diet can help college students handle the stresses of college life more effectively. The following are a handful of easy ways college students can improve their diets’ nutritional value without breaking the bank. * Eat breakfast. College students tend to stay up late and sleep in, but sleeping in at the expense of a healthy breakfast can impact performance in the classroom and make students more likely to overeat later in the day. A bowl of cereal with some fresh fruit is not an especially expensive breakfast, but it can help college students start their day off on an energetic and healthy note. * Snack healthy. Many students find snacks are an integral part of hourslong study sessions. But trips to the vending machine for candy bars or potato chips won’t add much nutritional value to your diet. Instead of being at the mercy of vending machines, bring healthy snacks along during study sessions. Fresh fruit, raw vegetables, Greek yogurt, and whole wheat crackers are just a few snacks that pack a more nutritious punch than traditional

vending machine fare. Healthy snacks also tend to provide more energy, making it easier to endure late-night study sessions. * Make pizza healthier. Pizza is a staple of many college students’ diets, so it’s likely unrealistic for them to quit pizza cold turkey, especially since there are ways to make pizza healthier. When ordering a pizza, college students can request their pizza be prepared with whole wheat dough, which is healthier than traditional pizza dough. In addition, ask for less cheese and more tomato sauce. Such alterations are simple and healthy without sacrificing taste. * Scale back on sugar. Sugar can cause weight gain without providing much in the way of nutrition. College students can cut back on their sugar intake by avoiding sugary beverages, including soda and drinks like sweetened iced tea or lemonade. College is also when many young men and women first start drinking coffee, which some people prefer to take with sugar. But students looking to keep weight off and reduce their sugar intake can choose to drink their coffee black or with just light cream or fat-free milk to ensure their morning cup of joe is not contributing to a bigger waistline.

* Drink more water. The symptoms of dehydration mimic those of hunger, and college students might turn to snacks when all they really

need is a glass of water. If you find yourself snacking shortly after eating a meal, then you might just need to drink more water.

Few college students prioritize healthy eating habits. But there are some inexpensive ways for on-thego students to enjoy healthy diets.

How to prepare your home for prospective buyers Selling a home can be exciting. Homeowners who made considerable financial commitments when buying their homes may be anxious when the time comes to get returns on their investments, but selling a hope need not be so nerve-racking. Buyers’ tastes often dictate their interest in a home. For example, no matter how immaculate homeowners may keep their colonials, such homes won’t appeal much to buyers looking for a traditional Cape Cod cottage-style home. But while you might not be able to change your home’s architecture to appeal to the masses, there are steps you can take to make your home more appealing to buyers whose dream home more closely resembles your own. • Address curb appeal. Curb appeal goes a long way toward creating a lasting first impression, so homeowners can start by driving up to their homes and looking at them through the eyes of prospective buyers. Address the landscape if it needs some TLC, and power wash siding if it’s appearing a little dirty. Examine your driveway for cracks and consider installing a new surface if the existing one is more of an eyesore than eye-catching. Finally, clear the yard of toys and tools before nailing the “For Sale” sign into the ground, as a cluttered yard will give buyers the impression that you did not prioritize keeping a clean

and presentable home. • Clear out the clutter. Some sellers stage their homes when putting them up for sale. But staging might not be an option for sellers who are still living in their homes and intend to do so until they find buyers. If you can’t stage your home, then do your best to remove clutter, including extra pieces of furniture you might have accumulated over the years that can make rooms seem smaller. Box up any books that no longer fit on bookshelves, and try to keep common areas like family rooms, hallways and kids’ playrooms as open and clean as possible so the rooms appear roomy and relaxing. • Let the light shine in. Dark homes are less appealing to prospective buyers, many of whom have no interest in living in caves that are void of natural sunlight. When showing your home, make sure all of the curtains are drawn and the blinds or shades are up. If trees or shrubs outside windows are blocking natural light from getting inside, consider trimming them so your home appears sunnier and more inviting. Bright homes tend to feel more spacious, so fix any light fixtures that need fixing and even add small lamps in rooms that could use some extra light. • Tackle that to-do list. It’s easy for a home’s residents to grow ac-

customed to certain minor problems, such as a doorknob that always sticks or a creaky kitchen cabinet door. But buyers might be turned off by too many of these minor problems and wonder if any larger and more expensive issues also went ignored. Before showing your home, address all those minor repairs on your to-do list. Selling a home can be exciting, and homeowners can take steps to make sure their home sale is successful and lucrative as well.

Finished basements save energy and deliver more living space

(MS) — By finishing your basement, you can gain more living space while reducing the amount of energy loss from downstairs. Basements that are not fully finished typically do not have insulated walls or covered flooring. This can result in heat loss and cause your furnace to work overtime. A remodeled basement offers more than additional storage space. It can provide a lot of extra room for a growing family, such as space for a gym, home theatre, office, guest suite, or a playroom for the kids. To ensure a comfortable and inviting basement, there are a few project components to consider: • Insulation will make sure your space warm and comfortable. For the best results, install a stone wool insulation product, a measure that

can be done easily with the ROXUL ComfortBoard IS. This product is mechanically fastened or adhered to the concrete foundation wall, offering you a higher R-value and better acoustics. • Drywall will help define the space and make it feel like a part of your home. If you haven’t tackled drywall before, consider hiring a pro to ensure your walls are seamless. • Flooring should be water sealed and covered with an insulated material. There are many products on the market, but consider laying padding before carpet or in-floor heating before tiles. • Personalize it with finishing touches. Select furniture that can fit down a typically steep staircase and choose items that complement the rest of your home’s décor.
