Two Gerretsens reflect on their time as Mayor of Kingston

that city councillors in my opinion aren’t paid enough.” Councillors will earn about $30,000 a year compared with the mayor’s salary of $90,000. “The only people who end up running for city council are people who are independently wealthy or people who are retired, neither of which represent the average person that is out working when their kids are in school,” he explained. But Gerretsen says this new council is ready to break that pattern: “To see such a young group of people, it’s great and you get a fresh perspective.” The inaugural council meeting was largely reserved for the swearing-in formalities and a speech by Mayor Paterson. Their first working meeting will take place in mid-December.

“But at the same time I’m so thrilled by the fact other people will have the opportunities to continue on some of the work we’ve done.” His pending departure touched off a heated campaign for mayor with six candidates. First-term councillor Bryan Paterson came out on top in last month’s election, and was sworn into office as Kingston’s 96th mayor in front of family, friends and colleagues at the inaugural council meeting Dec. 2. Paterson will lead a mostly rookie council where 7 of the 12 district seats are now occupied by newcomers. Gerretsen observed the new council has youth on its side which, he says, is hard to accomplish in the low-pay world of civic politics. “One of my biggest complaints – I guess I can say it now that I’m no longer involved - is

What goes down? The simple facts about flushing Reporter

R0013019498

Kingston Heritage – It seems Kingston residents need a reminder about what should be tossed down the toilet, and what shouldn’t. “Pee, poop and toilet paper. That’s all,” said Troy Dickerson, wastewater assurance officer for Utilities Kingston. The city-owned utility issued a ‘what to flush’ reminder while inviting media on a recent tour of the Ravensview sewage treatment plant to illustrate some of the equipment problems that occur when more is get-

ting flushed than just the 3-P’s. Another purpose of the tour was to educate residents about the so-called non-flushable items that should be tossed in the garage of the green bin. Hand and baby wipes, diapers, feminine hygiene products, dental floss, fats, oils, greases, cat litter, needles and hair are some of the most damaging items that are being flushed into the city’s sewage system. Even though they go out of sight from your home or business, they do cause problems further down the pipe, said Dickerson. “Such products do not break down in the plumbing and treatment systems.”

He says flushing them down the toilet can not only lead to expensive breakdowns at the city’s main treatment plant, but can cause costly damage and repairs to the pipes leading from your house to the main lines. Cooking oils and grease are major sources of clogs because they tend to harden in the pipes and prevent other materials from passing through. These should either be disposed of in a green bin or a garbage container, not flushed or washed down the drain, officials insist. And in spite of what the product labels claim, personal wipes are not flushable either because the material doesn’t break down as easily as toilet paper. Because the wipes don’t disintegrate, treatment plant grinders, pumps and screens get jammed, plugged or clogged. Worse yet, officials say the backlog can occur in the sewer pipe leading from your house to the curb which then becomes the homeowners’ responsibility to fix. The utility maintains more than 500 kilometres of combined sanitary and storm water sewers. It’s inviting residents to see firsthand what the treatment plant has to process, by calling 613-546-0000. Touring the sewer plant may not rank on your top 10 list of Kingston places to visit, but it will provide an eye-opening experience about what happens when you don’t observe the etiquette of flushing.

United Way celebrates another successful campaign raising $3,504,000 By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage News – The United Way KFL&A has done it again – on Nov. 28 the organization announced their 16th straight fundraising record, raising a total of $3,504,000 during the 11-week region-wide campaign. The funds raised represent a $50,000 increase over last year’s announced total of $3,453,725. The final campaign numbers were revealed at the touchdown breakfast at the Ambassador hotel and numerous organizations attended to share their achievements. More than 70 per cent of the funds were raised from people who give through work-

place campaigns or in the community, with the balance coming from events and corporate gifts. This year, volunteers were thanked for their contributions by Brenda Moore, chair of the Food Sharing Project, a community group that helps provide breakfast, lunch and healthy snacks for school children throughout the area. “We fed 14,000 children last year with the help of two and a half employees and 475 volunteers,” said Moore. “We wouldn’t exist or be able to do what we do without those volunteers. They are priceless to us and they are priceless to the students they help.” Moore also thanked the volunteers for their help in building a strong community in

Kingston, a sentiment that outgoing mayor Mark Gerretsen echoed in his final public speech as mayor of the city. “We are all indirectly benefiting from the United Way. They help to make our community stronger, more productive and more engaged overall,” said Gerretsen. “What you’re doing truly does impact our community and I hope that when you leave this breakfast that is the one thing that resonates.” Funds raised in 2013 supported over 74,000 people across the community and 69 programs and services. All of the money raised in this year’s campaign will be used to provide support to services used by people in the Kingston area every day. This year’s campaign chair, Carrie Batt,

is sure that funds will go a long way to support the community. “We know that every dollar counts. So a giant thank you to the thousands of donors who have generously supported the United Way,” said Batt. “Our community is amazingly caring. Every person I’ve spoken to has been committed to caring for others and making our community one where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.” Although the 2014 campaign has ended, the United Way continues to accept donations as workplaces continue with fundraising events and individuals plan their giving for the holidays.

Editorial Paying it forward with a grateful heart

Editorial - I’ve been searching for the words over the past few days to accurately express the gratitude that is in my heart right now. Still, I find myself at a loss, but I’m going to give it a try anyway. Over the last two months, you - my friends, family, readers and acquaintances - helped me raise over $2,100 for Easter Seals, a charity that is very near and dear to my heart, through online voting. I am grateful for that. I am also grateful for the 18 people (EIGHTEEN!) who came out to cheer me on at Dancing with the Easter Seals Stars on Nov. 20. I am grateful for my talented dance partner and choreographer, Randi Kyle, and her patience and understanding when teaching me our hip hop routine. I am grateful for Tina Kyle, who donated her studio, TK Danceworx, for our practices. I am grateful for everyone who shouted us out before and after the event, further helping to raise awareness for this great cause. I dedicated my dance to my cousin Christopher, who lived with severe cerebral palsy his entire life and was helped a lot by Easter Seals along the way. He passed

away at the age of eight. If I was inclined to believe in spiritual things, I’d say Chris was present on the dance floor that day, helping me to remember the routine and perform it as best as I possibly could. I must say, I was expecting to win the people’s choice award, which is given to the dancing pair that raises the most money, but I was not necessarily expecting us to be named overall champions - especially after watching Chelsea McDermott and Claude Marc Forest’s show-stopping routine. Those two rocked it! It makes me smile to think that I was able to help raise money for a charity I believe in so strongly. Because of all the generous people who voted for Randi and me, a child with a disability will be able to have the full summer camp experience at Camp Merrywood next year. On a more personal level, I was truly floored by the amount of support I received. I was expecting my husband, parents and grandma to come out and see me dance, and maybe a few other family members and friends to vote online, but I was truly amazed by the sheer number of people that got behind me for this endeavour - not because I don’t recognize and appreciate my family and friends, but more because it seems to be a real challenge this day and age for us to take even a few minutes out of the day to show others we care. I’ve written before about how being a community reporter can be a lonely job. Sure, you attend all sorts of events and

Kanata Kourier-Standard

Kanata Kourier-Standard Arnprior Chronicle-Guide

interview and photograph people who are coming together for one great cause or another. You give them the press they want to promote their cause and usually they’re very grateful for that. But you’re never really a part of anything. In fact, it’s your job is to be the outsider, the objective observer. Some people love this about reporting, but I’m one who craves a community of my own. The support I received participating in Dancing with the Easter Seals Stars made me feel like I truly have this sort of community. There is a warm glow inside of me that started when votes began coming in a couple of months ago and has only continued to grow larger. This feeling is especially appreciated during the bleak, dark month of November, when my seasonal depression always seems to be at its worst. I can think of no better way to channel this amazing feeling than to pay it forward. A few days before the big danceoff, I said that I would donate one hour of volunteer time for every $100 raised over $1,000 in online voting. With a total of $2,130, that entitles me to 11 hours of community volunteer time and I intend to use it well. I’m not entirely sure where I will volunteer yet - the food bank, Martha’s Table and the many organizations that help kids at Christmas all come to mind. If you are a member of a local charity/organization that is in need of my services this holiday season and beyond, feel free to drop me a line. Let’s keep this glow going as long as possible.

In Our Opinion

Do they know it’s time to stop Band-Aid? Heritage Editorial – Last week a very familiar Christmas tune was re-released for a fourth and hopefully final time. That’s right, ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas’ performed by a collection of artists calling themselves ‘Band-Aid 30’ has returned and this time around the song hopes to raise funds to help fight Ebola. The song certainly has seen great success in the past 30 years and with the previous three versions, but it has also generated quite a bit of criticism. Written by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure, the song was originally released in 1984 to raise funds and help fight famine in Ethiopia, but over the years many critics have pointed out that the song may have done more harm than good. The original version included lyrics like ‘where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears’ or ‘the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom’ and the extremely appalling ‘Well tonight thank god it’s them instead of you’. These lyrics were obviously written to emphasize the devastation in Ethiopia, but with every re-release of the song, these words work to reinforce negative stereotypes of Africa. The lyrics present Africa – the continent, not just parts of it – as a place that is riddled with disease and in a constant state of poverty. It also presents an Africa that is stagnant and unchanging and in constant need of Western support and intervention. At times, the song and the sentiment come across as patronizing and ignorant and for many, including artists who were asked to participate and declined, these attitudes are unacceptable. While some of the lyrics were changed this time around, they were replaced with things like ‘Where a kiss of love can kill you and there’s death in every tear’ which isn’t much better. Perhaps it is time to retire the idea of helping those in need with a song, or at least this song. It is clear that the ability to raise funds in this way is possible, but the question remains, are these words and methods harmful to the people we are trying to assist? If so, isn’t it time to think of other ways to help? Ebola has become a worldwide health crisis, but we need to make sure that any assistance we offer is respectful and welcomed and this song certainly isn’t either of those things.

Should Kingston’s mayor have an official residence like the PM? Kingston Heritage Editorial Kingston’s waterfront is poised to undergo some dramatic changes in the next few years, courtesy of federal government divestitures. The Feds are in the process of deciding the fate of three prime properties; Marine Museum/dry dock/wharf on Ontario Street, former Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) regional offices on King Street and, of course, Kingston Penitentiary. All three properties not only offer spectacular views of the waterfront but they have various heritage designations, which give the municipality some control over how they can, or cannot, be repurposed in the future. The question of how to redevelop the lands while respecting the 19th century heritage features has already been in the headlines during the past year, and we can expect more related stories. Divesting federal real estate is, after all, a slow bureaucratic process involving several departments – such as Fisheries & Oceans, Heritage and Public Works - that have to go through multiple steps of negotiation and consultation before these properties can be unloaded. Any lands or buildings slated for decommissioning and sale will ultimately end up with Canada Lands Company, the government’s real estate arm. We know the Marine Museum board property is trying to acquire the land it occupies and possibly partner with a private developer with deep pockets to help with site repairs, clean-up and development. There are recent positive indications the Feds are willing to negotiate with museum officials. As for Corrections Canada’s mothballed penitentiary, there has been plenty of speculation over what to do with it. Ideas have ranged from creat-

ing a Sailing Centre of Excellence to transforming it into a year-round tourist attraction as Canada’s version of Alcatraz. But so far, there’s been no official word about what will be done with the historic prison property other than to resolve soil contamination issues around its western wall bordering Portsmouth Olympic Harbour. The latest federal property to come into the public spotlight is St. Helen’s villa and Stone Gables mansion at 440-462 King Street West, a collection of buildings that have been vacant for about three years. This 3.5-hectare property, located to the west of the new Isabel Bader performing arts centre, is currently the focus of a skirmish between CSC and City Hall over how much of the property should be designated for its heritage cultural value. The outgoing council balked at CSC’s attempt to remove some of the interior designations for St. Helen’s villa, built in the 1830s for the Town of Kingston’s first mayor, Thomas Kirkpatrick. CSC claims the properties will be harder to dispose of, and could sit empty for a long time, by slapping heritage protection rules on the staircase, windows and fireplaces. The prison service says it intends to file an appeal of the city’s extended interior designation. But beyond the battles, CSC revealed it has held preliminary talks with a potential buyer/ developer. Here’s a suggestion that may go down about as well as an undercooked potato; let the city purchase the villa lands for municipal needs. Since it was the home of Kingston’s first mayor it could be designated as the mayor’s official residence in the future – kind of like Kingston’s version of 24 Sussex Drive. That’s not to say Bryan Paterson and family would get to move into St. Helen’s and party like it’s 1899, but municipal ownership could open the door to a variety of community uses - museum attraction, rented out for weddings and other receptions – which could complement the nearby renovated Tett

Centre for Creativity and Learning. Municipal ownership also ensures this collection of unique buildings, open space and waterfront access will benefit the community for generations to come. It’s likely a costly proposal for the city to acquire more heritage buildings but it’s one this council should seriously consider – if given the first right to purchase federal heritage property. It may be a one-of-a-kind opportunity to obtain the home of the first mayor in the First Capital city where ‘History and Innovation Thrive.’

Kingstonians rally for man stripped of health care Reporter

Rallies took place in Kingston and Toronto on Wednesday to support a man who has lost his citizenship and health-care coverage because of a legal loophole. Deepan Budlakoti was born in Canada in 1989 and granted Canadian citizenship, but his citizenship was revoked by the federal government in an extremely unusual act in 2010, leaving him stateless. Mr. Budlakoti was recently informed by the Ontario Ministry of Health that as a stateless person they believed he was no longer entitled to health care; his OHIP coverage was revoked. “Denying OHIP coverage to any person residing in the province of Ontario is needlessly cruel, and sets a dangerous precedent,” said Melanie Spence, a doctor with Health for All. “Health is a basic human right, and the denial of health care coverage to any person should not be tolerated. OHIP should be made available to all Ontario residents, regardless of their immigration status.” Budlakoti and his lawyers challenged the Ministry’s decision in a teleconferenced hearing Wednesday that took place simultaneously in Kingston, Ottawa, and Toronto. About two dozen supporters rallied outside the Ontario Government Building at 1055 Princess Street. While holding signs that read “Health care not deportation” and “Justice for Deepan,” supporters chatted with several sympathetic passersby. “What we’re seeing here today with Deepan is not just the stripping of his citizenship, but taking away his health care,” said Karl Flecker, former National Director of Human Rights for the Canadian Labour Congress (retired) and a member of the demonstration. “Is there not enough stress that people are under already? For what purpose? At what cost? I don’t have the answers to those questions, but I know it’s wrong. And I’d like to think that most of the people that I

grew up with in my fifty-five years know that that’s wrong.” Mr. Budlakoti’s specific situation is very unusual. He was born in Canada in 1989, received an Ontario birth certificate and Canadian citizenship, and held his own Canadian passport. He has never had citizenship in another country. However, because of a legal loophole involving his parents’ employment at the Indian Embassy, the federal government was able to revoke his Canadian citizenship in 2010, leaving him without citizenship in any country. He lacks access to public services and is not permitted to work. The federal government argues that Mr. Budlakoti’s trouble with the law as a young man justifies taking away his citizenship; he spent time in jail. However, Budlakoti’s supporters point out that being convicted of a crime is not a reason to take away a person’s citizenship or health care coverage, and that having already served his sentence Budlakoti is being doubly punished. “I hope more people in Kingston ask: what is going on?” said Karl Flecker. “Does it matter that his name is Deepan Budlakoti? Does it matter that when he was a young teen he made some wrong choices? Paid for them? Did time? Turned out to be a stellar member of the criminal-judicial system?” Being completely stateless is rare, but many people in Canada struggle for access to health care because of precarious immigration situations. And while gaining citizenship in the first place can be slow and difficult, advocates worry that the government’s treatment of Budlakoti sets a new and dangerous precedent, and opens the door to stripping Canadian-born people of their citizenship based on the colour of their skin.

Budlakoti will have to wait to hear the outcome of Wednesday’s hearing. But Flecker encourages community members to take action. Supporters are raising money for health insurance for Budlakoti at justicefordeepan.org. And Flecker encourages people to send a message to Chris Alexander, Minister

of Citizenship and Immigration: “Health care not deportation.” Flecker concluded: “Taking away people’s citizenship is enormous. And taking it away for ideological reasons, for partisan and electoral gain at the expense of somebody’s life and sense of home and community is not just egregious, it’s evil.”

Council Co-Op: Student intern to help councillors do research By Bill Hutchins Reporter

Kingston Heritage - City councillors have long lamented the fact that they don’t get enough help on the job to manage their workloads. Well, that’s about to change. A first-of-its-kind $11,000 Council Support Internship Program will be launched in the New Year that will recruit one student from Queen’s University to assist councillors in the research they do in crafting municipal policies or helping constituents. The student will even monitor media coverage on behalf of elected officials. “The program will be available to students enrolled in the Masters of Public Administration (MPA) program at Queen’s University,” according to a report by city clerk John Bolognone. He added the student will “assist City Councillors with background research on relevant issues and other Council duties.” The idea behind the student co-op program, approved by council Nov. 18, was first brought forward by then-councillor Bryan Paterson last July in order to help civic leaders with their workloads, but also to give students first-hand experience and engagement in the world of municipal politics. The clerk’s department will oversee the hiring and workload of the new council assistant, and the student’s work will be graded by the univer-

sity as part of the MPA course. The internship is expected to run between May and September each year so as not to interfere with the school semesters. The $11,000 tax-funded budget includes paying the intern $14-$15 an hour, plus the cost of a computer, cell phone and other office expenses. “Upon the requests of individual Councillors, the City Clerk will be responsible for assigning the research to the student, as well as delegating extra administrative support as required,” said Bolognone. The intern’s responsibilities will go beyond assisting councillors to deal with complaints about barking dogs and uncollected garbage or to provide research on council motions and policies. The intern will also: -do city-related research, data analysis and database development, -monitor developments in government legislation, policies, procedures and trends, -monitor social media websites, newspapers and other local media coverage, -perform benchmarking studies, research best practices and develop policy options. While the clerk’s office routinely assists councillors in understanding municipal business, it is not responsible for carrying out any research on behalf of individual councillors. Council is treating the internship program as a pilot project.

Give them what they really want this year.

History to come alive in fun, thoughtprovoking way during Macdonald Week By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

Charismatic nation-builder or bigoted murderer? No matter how you choose to remember Sir John A Macdonald, there can be little doubt that Paul Dyck, artistic associate at SALON Theatre Productions, has his work cut out for him as he prepares to portray Canada’s first prime minister during Macdonald Week, Jan. 6-11. Dyck put his skills to the test on Nov. 25, when he officially announced the programming for Macdonald Week in character. Events include a range of activities from arts to academics, such as Stories We Tell: A Night of Historical Fiction featuring authors Gordon Henderson and Roy MacSkimming; a Sir John A “art battle” where participants will engage in live competitive painting; and The Performed Speeches of Sir John A Macdonald, featuring local actors delivering excerpts from the PM’s speeches, shedding light on interesting and sometimes

Celebrating the differences of all the happy souls hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca

News - Life threw Tara McCallan a bit of a curveball when she gave birth to her second child nearly two years ago. “My little girl, Pip, was born two Decembers ago,” she explains. “We found out two days after she was born she had Down syndrome. It really shook me - I wasn’t expecting it. A couple of days after that I sat down and wrote out some pretty raw, emotional feelings about getting that diagnosis and what that meant to me as a mama.” McCallan continued writing and eventually started a blog, The Happy Soul Project, as a way of sharing with the

world her life as a mother of a child with Down syndrome and how beautiful such differences can be. “It’s my platform and opportunity to teach and inspire others that what makes you different is what makes you beautiful.” Today, hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world visit The Happy Soul Project to follow the life the Kingston family – something that came as a bit of a surprise to McCallan: “What started as what I thought was just going to be something my mom and girlfriends would read turned into this world-wide community all fighting for the same message.” Pip has had her share of health challenges over the last two years, from con-

genital cataracts to congenital heart defects, but her spirit has not been broken. “She’s my rock,” McCallan says. “She’s beat the odds, and each and every time she’s defied the odds, she’s come out of surgery with a smile. Her smile can light up the world.” It should come as no surprise, then, that Pip has been something of a trailblazer in her own right. Not only was she the first baby ever to be named the Canadian Down Syndrome Society’s “hero of the year”, she was also the first special needs child to grace the cover of Today’s Parent magazine in over 25 years. “There’s something magic about her that really just seems to be connecting with people,” McCallan notes. Eventually, McCallan began to wonder why all children’s differences weren’t more celebrated. “I wanted there to be a way to have that for other kids, whether it’s diabetes or Down syndrome or one leg or whatever that difference

is, the Happy Soul Project is all about celebrating that.” So she decided to produce a Happy Soul Project 2015 calendar, which features all sorts of children with all sorts of differences. “Back in August we had a big casting call in Kingston and so many kids came out and so many families came out to support their kids,” McCallan says, noting that the project turned into a truly beautiful experience. “Those families don’t usually get a chance to celebrate [their children’s] differences, and that fact that we wanted them specifically because of their difference, to bring awareness to it, was kind of a special thing.” The photo shoot for the calendar took place in October at the Delta Hotel, and it was officially launched Nov. 23. Each child featured wears a Happy Soul Project shirt with a hashtag saying what their difference is. At the back of the calendar, bios of the children explain the difference in more detail.

“A lot of the kids on the calendar have a really rare diagnosis that you would never necessarily know of unless you asked. This way we’re really just putting it out there and celebrating what makes them them.” McCallan remarks that the making of the calendar was a great experience for all involved. “The feedback I’m getting from parents is that was the first time they really came out of their shell or felt special. They didn’t feel ashamed of their difference.” The Happy Soul Project calendar is available locally at Chapters, Shoppers Drug Mart and The Rocking Horse. You can also purchase it online at www.shophappysoulproject.com. Visit McCallan’s blog at www. happysoulproject.com.

“Niche to mainstream” a hot topic at fourth annual Local Food Conference By Kate Kristiansen Reporter

in choosing the right point of sale technology and Foodland Ontario provided market intelligence to get to know your customers better. The 2013 Usage and Attitude Survey profiles the Ontario main grocery shopper as an adult between the age of 24 and 54; 60 per cent are female and 40 per cent male. “87 per cent are eating meals at home, and 42 per cent are buying local,” said Kelly Ward, Supervisor of Brand Services for Foodland Ontario. Customers want fresh, nutritional food; that’s a huge benefit to Ontario farmers, the economy and the environment. While seasonal challenges exist, consumers place the greatest importance on buying local. This is easy to accomplish with meat, eggs, dairy and baked goods, but more difficult with fruits and vegetables. Food habits have changed over time. There are different demographic trends on how shoppers buy, consume food and prepare food. Generation X (30-45 years old) wants to feed their kids healthy food, but price still remains important. They want good products at a good price. They are interested in recipes and meal plan-

ning, often waiting for the flyers to come out for discounts. Generation Y (20-30 years old), commonly referred to as millennials, searches out intense flavors, generally choosing more socially responsible foods. They want to know where their food comes from, and they want it clearly labeled. Generation Z (19 and under), the “salad” generation, is even more food savvy than the tastemakers before them. Those over 50 years of age are also socially responsible but often less so then their counterparts.

They are commonly referred to as the “sandwich” generation. The key is to understand your customers and create a business plan and strategy that helps you gain market position. The Local Food Conference featured many industry leaders and community organizations helping local small businesses take their ideas from the kitchen to the wider market place. Buy local, eat local—together we can make a difference. For more information and resources visit www.ontario.ca/ omafra.

Local food is a powerful source in our agri-food system, yet not all local food shoppers are buying the same. Kingston hosted the Fourth Annual Local Food Conference— where local food business owners, producers, distributors and those passionate about local food explored the topic of creating space in a crowded market or staying niche. The two-day conference on Nov. 24 and 25 was presented by Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA), in partnership with Kingston Economic Development Corporation (KEDCO); it launched with a tour of local businesses. Attendees visited MacKinnon Brothers Brewery Company, Patchwork Gardens and Farm Boy, where a representative discussed ways of getting local products into the store. What is local? Some describe anything within a 50 or 100-kilometre radius as local; others include anything grown in Ontario or made in Canada as local. What was clear at the conference was that foodies want what they want, and business owners can’t afford to ignore them. Buying local is

not a trend that is going to disappear. “Local food gives people a sense of place,” said keynote speaker Steve Beauchesne, CEO of Beau’s All Natural Brewing Company, which began with beer making by Steve and his dad. In a marketplace dominated by large companies, Beau’s grew from a staff of five, plus mom (who would help with the books after her day job) to one 125 employees. Today, Beau’s produces four million litres of beer a year. Are they mainstream? Sure are. Are they local? Absolutely. “Whether it’s broccoli or beer, you are providing buyers with an experience,” said Beauchesne in his speech to over 200 attendees. Be unique. Grow your business as big as you want. Food hubs and sharing ideas and distribution processes are great ways to leverage your growth—as the master of your own destiny you can still remain niche while becoming mainstream. Whether your passion is hops growing, cheese making or craft beer making, network resources were onsite and ready to assist. Greenbelt Foundation provided an overview of the latest developments in local food hubs, TD Bank discussed helpful solutions

catalyst in Canada becoming a nation, but he was also a major catalyst in the execution of Metis leader Louis Riel. Dyck explains that SALON has been working to engage all aspects of the community and consider all points of view and perspectives. The group has reached out to indigenous groups like Queen’s Four Directions centre and Idol No More in order to better address Macdonald’s oppression and sometimes outright violence toward Canada’s indigenous people. Dyck hopes members of the public will participate in the activities, most of which are free, and come away with a greater understanding of Macdonald and his complicated legacy. “Whether you agree with him or not, a lot Owner of Strategies café Vicki Baxter of the decisions he made shaped the Canada Amade. Photo/Mandy Marciniak. we have today,” Dyck says, noting that he really provide a sense of community and keep their minds active.” The café, located at 836 Gardiners Road, will open its doors on Dec. 6 and community members can come in and play any of the nearly 200 board games in the café library by paying a small cover charge of $6 a person. They will also be able to enjoy food and drinks at the café and hopefully liquor in the New Year. “The food will not be a gourmet, but we are aiming to make it healthy and sort of lighter fare. We will have paninis, soup, pasta, different platters to share amongst groups and different snacks too,” said Amade. “There is no obligation to eat or drink because we will be charging cover, but we want people to have the option.” Amade hopes that the café is well received in Kingston and she hopes that Strategies will one day become a larger chain, but for now she is just encouraging everyone to come check it out. “It is fun and new and different. It is a great way to be social and have a fun evening.” For more information about Strategies Board Game Café visit www.strategiescafe. ca or look for them on Twitter and Facebook.

Heritage News – There’s a new café in the city’s west end and it certainly is unique; on Dec. 6 Strategies Board Game Café, the first café of its kind in Kingston, will open it’s doors and owner Vicki Baxter Amade couldn’t be more excited. “Seeing it all come to life has been the best part for me,” said Amade. “We’ve had so many people stop by to see if we are open yet and they are so excited to use the space and see what it has to offer.” Amade has always been a an avid gamer, but you wouldn’t know it from her career choice; for the past 30 years she has served as a diplomat for the British government and assisted with multiple aid and development projects. While the job kept her busy, she always had time for board games and she shared this love with her brother. Unfortunately, Amade’s brother died a few years ago and she struggled to cope with the loss. The idea of starting a board game café grew out of that experience. “I decided that I wanted to do something else and something that I love and do it in a way that I hope will help others as well,” she explained. “Board games have the potential to do so much for so many different groups in the community and I want to contribute to that.” Strategies is a corporation that was set up by Amade and a handful of partners and the café is the first step in the venture. The group hopes to create a safe space for board game enthusiasts, new gamers and even more specific members of the community. “We want to run after school programs and afternoon programs for seniors,” added Amade. “We also want to run family nights and help other gaming groups run theme nights. We really want to become a space that people can use to gather and have fun.” Amade also points out the numerous benefits of playing board games, especially for kids and seniors. “Board games teach and build on math skills, reading skills and even geography and that is so beneficial to children,” added Amade. “For the seniors, board games can

hopes all those who participate are able to engage with the topic more comprehensively. “Perhaps if some of his supporters came away with a bit more understanding of the detractor side, and the detractors came away with a bit more of an understanding of the supporters’ side, they would understand him as an individual a bit more so he’s not such a black and white figure.” So what would Sir John A himself think of all this? Dyck believes he would be rather humbled that, 200 years after his death, people are still engaging with him. “Even the negative aspects I think he’d be pleased to see. He may have made some bad decisions, but he wasn’t a stupid man. He had a pragmatic view of how to do things and sometimes he had to do things he thought were right at the time but didn’t end up being the right way.” For a full list of programming, visit www. sirjohna2015.ca.

These pirates offer treasures galore There’s something special about a production that premiered in the 1800s when it can still enchant audiences in the 21st century. It’s fitting that Pirates of Penzance is being produced by one of the best theatrical groups in the region. Regiopolis-Notre Dame Catholic High School has a strong drama program under the direction of Steve Powell. Add Juno/MusiCounts awardwinning Hugh Johnston’s musical direction and it’s easy to understand why the Regi performances soar far above standard high school fare in acting skills as well as choreography, staging and music. Since I first saw their shows about ten years ago, I’ve kept Powell and Johnston on my radar. They are masters of the specialized craft of bringing out the best in high school actors and staging must-see performances (the same goes for Bayridge Secondary School’s drama teacher, Mike Bullett). Each year in December, months

of work culminate in the RegiopolisNotre Dame performances. This year’s production, Pirates of Penzance, like all of their shows, is not an easy one to pull off. No other school takes the risks (and succeeds) the way Regi does. The school’s December stage offerings are a highlight of the year for fans of musical theatre. Judging from a recent rehearsal, Powell and Johnston have cast their magic on the stage again this year. “We were pretty confident we could cast Pirates of Penzance and do it,” said Powell. “We knew it was going to be difficult. The style is very different from what kids are used to, and they’ve eaten it up. They were very happy about getting a chance to do the show. We have some real big theatre junkies at our school.” He admitted that one of the reasons for the decision to do Pirates had to do with actors available. “We knew we had Kathryn [Johnston],” said Powell. “Her voice is unbelievable. Even without her we knew someone could step up to the role, but Kathryn just takes it to a whole other level. We also knew we had Will Gouett. We knew we could fill the key roles of Mabel, Frederic, the Pirate King and the Major General.”

He explained that casting takes a great deal of effort and energy. “We agonize over every decision,” he said. “Not just the leads. We look at every role and whether an actor is right for the particular role. Can this person sing this kind of music? We’re very diligent in making our decisions. We had a lot to choose from this year: In addition to Kathryn and Will, we’ve still got people like Lauren (Knight).” Pirates of Penzance debuted on Broadway 135 years ago on New Year’s Eve in 1879. The comedy, penned by W.S. Gilbert (libretto) and Arthur Sullivan (music), is a tale of Frederic, a young man who is forced to serve under pirates upon his 21st birthday. His duty to them is scheduled to last for 63 years. Frederic’s love interest, Mabel, agrees to wait for him. How did a well-off young man become indentured to pirates? He can thank Ruth (played by Lauren Knight) for that. “Ruth is Frederic’s nanny,” said Lauren. “She apprentices him to become a pirate. Unfortunately, she is hard of hearing. He was supposed to become a pilot of a ship, but due to her hearing problems, Ruth thought Kathryn Johnston and Will Gouett rehearse for their roles in Pirates of

Penzance at Regiopolis-Notre Dame Catholic High School. The school is staging the musical from December 10 to 13. Photo/Mark Bergin

Daytripper

These pirates offer treasures galore Continued from page 20

Frederic’s parents wanted him to become a pirate. Ruth ends up taking care of Frederic and the pirates. She loves him, but she’s 47, and he does not feel the same way about her.” She said the show is kid friendly. “Everyone, no matter what age, will enjoy the show,” she said. “The music is fantastic. The direction and stage blocking, as well as the pit band, are great. Thanks to Mr. Powell and Mr. Johnston, it’s all coming together now. It’s going to be an incredible show, including some pretty fancy stage fighting that’s been choreographed.” How does a high school pull off a comic opera? For a start, as Powell noted, they were able to cast Kathryn Johnston (now appearing as Anne in Anne of Green Gables) as Mabel. This young actor has a voice that is second to none. She blew the lid off Regi last year with her performance in Guys and Dolls. In addition to Kathryn Johnston, Regi is full of talent. If you were fortunate and saw Blue Canoe’s The Producers this past summer, several of the

cast members were Regi students, who will also be appearing in leading roles in Pirates of Penzance. Working in the middle of two sets of rehearsals can be intimidating to the average person. Kathryn Johnston is not your average person. “Anne [of Green Gables] is so full of that juvenile energy,” she said. “Mabel [in Pirates] is so mature and very confident. But it is interesting working with that transition between the two and going from one rehearsal to the other. It’s a nice challenge.” She said that the show is full of loveable characters. “They’re really well-formed in the script,” she said. “The music is fantastic. It’s very well written, and it’s nice to listen to the cast and the band working very hard together.” Will Gouett, another Regi actor who appeared in Guys and Dolls last year and headlined The Producers in the summer, is back for his final year at Regi. He plays the role of Frederic, which means that in Act I, he gets to be a wild pirate, and, in Act II, he’s on the posh side of life. “There are so many cool things about Pirates of Penzance,” he said.

“It’s very different from what you usually see in theatre. It has great characters and we have a great cast. Mr. Powell does amazing things. It’s going to be a lot of fun for people to watch.” Jacob Donofreo plays the Pirate King. “He talks in a very weird voice,” he said. “They’re all funny characters. This year I get to be goofy, a change from Arvide (a serious missionary) last year. This is a famous show with incredible talent. It’s very funny and will crack you up. It will put a smile on your face. It’s amazing performing on stage with all the Regi talent.” Between the singing and dancing I witnessed in rehearsals, you won’t want to blink during this show, for fear of missing something. Tickets are available from the Regi office at 130 Russell Street in Kingston; 613-545-1902.

Geoffrey Sirett returns to Kingston for an ‘afternoon at the opera’ mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Heritage Events – For Kingston born opera singer Geoffrey Sirett, a chance to perform with the Kingston Symphony is always a treat; on Dec. 7, Sirett will perform alongside two other rising opera singers in a special concert entitled ‘Afternoon at the Opera’. “Kingston is where all of my musical education began and coming back to work with the symphony is always a pleasure,” said Sirett. “This particular concert is pretty unique and I think people will really enjoy it.” Sirett works as a freelance concert and opera singer and typically performs both longer running opera engagements for weeks at a time and smaller concerts throughout the year. He enjoys the variety that comes with his work, especially when concerts like this one come up. “This concert has really nice timing for me because I have started a circuit of performing Handel’s Messiah for Christmas over the next five weeks,” explained Sirett. “This program is really refreshing and offers me a bit of a change in December.” Sirett will be joined by Italian-Canadian soprano Lucia Cesaroni and Andrew Haji, a member of the Canadian Opera Company Ensemble Studio. The three singers will be accompanied by the Kingston Symphony and will perform music by Bizet, Rossini, Verdi,

Mozart, and more. “People should expect a sort of greatest hits of opera at this concert and almost a pop concert in a way because this music was popular back when it was contemporary,” added Sirett. “There is a really great balance of beautiful lyrical pieces with exciting and energetic pieces and it should be a great show.” This past season, Sirett premiered James Rolfe’s Open Road for Soundstreams and appeared later in that company’s production of Brian Current’s Airline Icarus. He also performed with the Canadian Opera Company, the Ottawa Choral Society and the Talisker Players of Toronto. While all of this keeps him busy, he is excited to come home for a performance and visit with his family. He also looks forward to seeing the rest of the crowd and encourages opera newcomers to come check out the show. “If you haven’t seen opera before then you will see the greatest hits and hopefully fall in love with the traditional repertoire. If you already love opera ,then you know that you will be in for a treat. It is a perfect holiday show.” The Kingston Symphony presents ‘AfternoonMS at the Opera’ on Sunday, 7, 2014 170 MS Gas 170 Chain Gas Chain SawDec. Saw at 2:30 p.m. at the Grand Theatre.

Hungry Bowl pet food drive kicks off fourth year in Kingston Heritage News - The holiday season is a time to give to those who are less fortunate - and that includes animals. The Hungry Bowl pet food drive works to make sure that animals aren’t forgotten when it comes to food and this year they hope to take in more food than ever before. “We are very lucky this year to have 23 drop off locations. It is a bit overwhelming but in a good way,” said Pet Parade Plus owner and organizer of the Hungry Bowl drive, Shannon Pester. “Last year’s total was 3,000 pounds and this year I am hoping for that and hopefully more.” As a member of Pet Sitters International (PSI), Pester is encouraged to help the animal community as much as possible and she certainly does. At the Hungry Bowl kick-off on Nov. 27, Pester was also recognized for her many contributions to the Humane Society over the years. “When we started looking at the list of all the things Shannon has done for us it got to the point where it was easier to just summarize it in one word – everything,” said KHS board member Janice Saunders. “The work you do touches me so much. We are lucky to have you and so are the animals.”

Pester was also praised by Mayor Mark Gerretsen at the kick-off event. Gerretsen explained that his current dog and his previous dog both came from the Humane Society and he is always so happy to see people helping animals in the community. “I really admire people who help animals, it is so important because they don’t have a voice,” said Gerretsen. “Their voice is heard through volunteers and people like Shannon who want to help and on behalf of the City I thank you for that.” So what inspires Pester to keep helping year after year? “It just needs to be done,” she said humbly. “Last year I was in tears when I walked in the room and saw the end result of the drive. The generosity was just overwhelming and I am so happy to help the Humane Society when I can.” Each year the Kingston Humane Society struggles to keep up with the demand for food in the shelter. They also struggle to provide variety for animals that may be a bit pickier, and Pester encourages people to donate all kinds of food and treats for that reason. “We will accept it all and we will even accept opened bags of food. If your pet didn’t like it then maybe another one will,” said Pester. “I hope people are just as generous as last year

Mayor Mark Gerretsen and food drive organizer Shannon Pester cut the ribbon to release the donation bins for the fourth annual Hungry Bowl pet food drive. Photo/Mandy Marciniak. and we can keep the Humane Society well stocked for the year ahead.” The Hungry Bowl pet food drive

Keen and quirky observations A woman sits on a metal bench in a courtyard, talking on a cell phone. Her legs are crossed and turned toward a wall behind her, like she’s positioning herself away from the world. It looks like she’s also biting her nails. It’s a private moment. But not really. She’s being watched. Observed. She’s the subject in a photograph. There’s also a security camera in the photograph recording everything she does. It’s an iconic comment on our security-obsessed world. It’s also an ironic image, a moment on the street that many people wouldn’t notice. Wayne Hiebert notices. He records. The photographic specialty of this retired photojournalist is candid street photography. He’s one of the best at it. As he looked through a window on a walkway above the street, Hiebert saw the woman who became

the subject of his photograph. “There’s sort of a decorative pattern on the glass I’m shooting through,” said Hiebert. “You see her sitting there. There’s a pattern on the glass with holes you can see through. It looks like the woman is the focus. You can also see the security camera above. You don’t put it together in your head immediately at the time, but it’s an interesting comment on how everybody’s looking in a voyeuristic way and everybody’s being watched. Cameras are everywhere. Then there’s me looking, and there’s the security camera in the foreground of the photo. This woman has no idea she’s being watched by anyone.” That’s the kind of thought that goes into Hiebert’s work. Not at the moment of image capture, but on his own subliminal level. A great deal of what we call intuition is simply a vast storehouse of experiential knowledge that our mind draws from. Hiebert’s heart and intuitive mind are like parts of his camera equipment. You can see some of Wayne Hiebert’s photographic works of art at the Central Branch of the Kingston Frontenac Public Library.

What you will see in this show became his are a number of images of day-tohome. He’s day life on the streets, on buses and continued in water.

ture. Your eye must see a composition or an expression that life itself offers you, and you must know with intuition when to click the camera. That is the moment when the photographer is creative. The Moment. Once you miss it, it is gone forever.” People generally don’t even know that Hiebert is taking their photo. He’s good at his work. Very good. Hiebert attended an opening of an exhibition of my photographs last winter. He had his camera, and I suspected he took a photograph of me, although I never saw him doing it. He later gave me a CD with the images he’d taken. I seriously avoid having my photo taken. I hate posing and do not like seeing myself in images. I prefer to be hidden in the background. If a Potter-like cloak of invisibility ever goes on sale, I’ll be first in line to purchase one. But in one hour, Hiebert captured more photos of me than have probably been taken in the past ten years. And I didn’t see

photograph saw Hiebert and looked at him. That’s a comment on the purity of Hiebert’s work. In a world that is so full of setup and posed shots, where this image would qualify as street photography, Hiebert refers to the image as a formal portrait. It’s been two years since a previous Hiebert exhibition, Stolen Moments, was held at Verb Gallery. “I’m at this point now where i have been amassing a body of work,” he said. “It’s time to start getting things out there. It doesn’t do any good to go out with my camera and look at the photos and file them away for nothing. If you consider yourself an artist, you owe it to yourself to get it out there.” I consider it an honor to call this unassuming and brilliant artist a colleague. Check out his work in an exhibition—appropriately called Observations—in the foyer of the Wilson Room at the Central Branch (top floor) of the Kingston Frontenac Public Library at 130 Johnson Street. The show runs until January 3, 2015.

in rippling water. “I shot that at the harbor when I saw a boat with a big flag on the back.” The photograph’s title? Eau Canada. One of the most unique photographs in the collection is an abstract London, England street scene. It’s shot as the reflection Hiebert saw looking into a Salvation Army musician’s tuba. It looks like some genetically modified combination of Dickens and Tim Burton or Dr. Seuss world views. In short, another brilliant image. In addition to a few such abstracts in the exhibition there are many realistic images, including several of Hiebert’s works of people on public transportation, everyday moments turned into decisive artistic moments in the hands of this photographer. Hiebert calls his photograph of a man with a bicycle, taken across some train tracks in Melbourne, Australia, the “only formal portrait in the collection.” Still, it’s obviously a Hiebert image. He calls this a formal portrait, because the man who is the subject of the

him doing it. He’s that good. “Generally, people don’t know I’m taking their photo,” he said. “I haven’t asked anyone to pose. Cartier-Bresson was the father of the street. He was just a man who wandered the streets with a Leica shooting black and white photos. I really enjoy the spontaneity of the street. I like the tradition of capturing real moments as opposed to setup moments.” The oldest photo in Hiebert’s current exhibition goes back to the late 1960s. He took it while he had his first newspaper reporter job in British Columbia. It features three white dogs in the rear window of a Volkswagen. “I don’t usually do cute,” he said. And that photo is cute, but with the magical Hiebert touch. One can imagine the shot being on the front page cover of a fashion magazine. It’s quirky in its cuteness. It’s one of many everyday moments that Hiebert has transformed into art. There’s a certain humor to his work, too. There’s an abstract image of a Canadian flag in his exhibition. It’s a reflection of the flag

Refurbished bubbler system in place for Howe Island By Margaret Knott Correspondent

There has been much discussion about the Ministry of Transportation (MTO’s) bubbler systems located along the paths of Frontenac Islands ferries but particularly Howe Island. Last winter Howe Islanders were unhappy with the system, convinced that it was not working right. The severe winter led to ferry delays, long line up’s, a shut down or two or three of the Frontenac

Howe Island ferry and frustrated residents. Their frustration was even greater when they learned from MTO with the assistance of divers, that the bubbler system was not working at all. The bubbler system is a network of pipe that lays on the bottom of the St. Lawrence River, aligned with the path of the ferry. Compressors on the mainland pump air into the pipes, which is released as air bubbles into the water, preventing the formation of ice and keeping the docks and ferry route

clear. Last week representatives from Frontenac County, the Township of Frontenac Islands, and the Ministry along with many interested citizens gathered at the Howe Island , Frontenac Howe Island ferry dock to watch the restored system bubble away. Frontenac Islands Mayor Denis Doyle was delighted “The ferry and the bubbler system are in excellent shape for the winter, better than ever with enhanced bubblers at the good deep docks to keep them from clogging. None the less we must also remember high winds and severe weather can cause disruptions to ferry service that we have no control over”, he added. Early in 2014, a group of Howe Island residents spearheaded efforts to get the bubbler system repaired leading to collaboration among island residents, County Council and staff, and then Minister of Transportation, Glen Murray,and MTO staff. There followed several public meetings, with the community providing feedback to keep the project on track. MTO completed the repairs including pipe replacement, inspecting the four compressors, changing oil, filters, seals and conducting Megger testing during the summer and finally last weeks public testing of the system over a number of days. Presently MTO is researching innovative system designs for keeping the water clear of ice in severe winters and the township is looking at Howe Island foot ferry improvements to ensure an even more reliable backup if for some reason the FrontenacHowe Islander ferry service is disrupted. The County has established an electronic notification system to alert ferry users of outages. Why all the fuss about the Bubbler? For islanders, shutting down the ferry is like shutting down Highway #401 but in their case having no other alternative. Around Town:

*I suspect we will know soon if and when the Wolfe Islander III will move to the winter dock.

And speaking of Council meetings, one of the highlights (for me) comes near the end of each meeting when the Mayor asks each member of council if they have concerns of one sort or another. And it is at this point council members frequently bring forward the local concerns they have heard from constituents. It could be anything from noisy dogs, speeding in the village, thoughts about the canal, road line painting, illegal hunting, noise,etc., ** One of the loveliest Christmas memories I have of the island is that of an Outdoor Christmas Pageant held outside at the WI United Church on a very cold, star lit night where the children sang like angels, as the wondrous tale was presented.

Begin the new year in a new home

Buyers Having a plan is essential when buying a home, as such a purchase is not something buyers should take lightly. Establishing a budget is the first step. This means taking inventory of savings, expenses and borrowing power. It is adviseable to sit down with a lender and do a run-through of what you can afford. By providing key financial information, including earning statements, existing debt and credit history, buyers can quickly learn how much they’re qualified to borrow and how much they are comfortable borrowing. This helps buyers zero in on homes in their price range. Being preapproved for a mortgage is advantageous when it comes time to make offers on properties. It shows sellers that buyers are serious and that they

have been vetted by the bank. Many buyers conduct a lot of research online prior to stepping into a home. This research lasts an average of six to eight weeks, according to the National Association of Realtors. Homework includes investigating neighborhoods and school systems, comparing the going rates of homes in the area, as well as figuring out which features are desired in a home. It also is important to hire a buyer’s agent. Such professionals send buyers listings that fit their home-search parameters, which saves buyers a lot of time and effort. Some agents preview homes for their buyers, even going so far as to identify overpriced listings that can be avoided or finding sellers who are willing to negotiate. A buyer’s agent works for the buyer, meaning there will be no conflict of interest. Agents assist buyers in the negotiating process, using their knowledge of the real estate market to help buyers make realistic offers that are likely to be accepted while providing a wealth of information about housing trends, area services and home improvement vendors. When sellers accept buyers’ offers, buyers must then arrange home inspections. An inspection is oftentimes included as a contract contingency, and buyers have a right to cancel contracts if inspections find that a home is unsatisfactory structurally. Sellers Sellers competing for business in a thriving housing market also have to do their share of work. It is unlikely sellers will be able to list their homes for sale one day and have dozens of offers the next. Today’s buyers are

much more conservative, and homes will have to be presented in the best light and listed at reasonable prices. Sellers can start the process of selling their homes by researching recently sold homes in their neighborhoods, paying particular attention to final sales prices. This information may be available through tax records, and some real estate sites publish the data online. Sellers can then compare this information to what they still owe on their mortgages if their homes are not paid off, and this should give sellers an idea of their potential profits. Sellers also can benefit from working with real estate agents, as it can be quite difficult and stressful for homeowners to sell their homes on their own. Agents have access to multiple listing databases and industry contacts, information that is quite valuable when selling a home. Agent will do their own assessments of a home to help sellers price the home accordingly based on market conditions. In addition, real estate agents can inform sellers about which, if any, repairs or changes may need to be made to make a home more attractive to prospective buyers. Real estate agents also help sellers through the negotiating process, finding a balance between what the buyer wants to pay and how much the seller wants for the home. Housing markets are once again looking up. As the new year arrives, many people may find now is the time find their next homes. Understanding the process and getting guidance from real estate professionals makes the process of buying and selling a home that much easier.

After flatlining during the economic downturn that began around 2008, housing markets in many regions of the United States and Canada have shown signs of recovery. Those in the market to buy and sell may find this year presents an ideal opportunity to do just that. According to the real estate listing Web site Zillow, home values rose 5.1 percent across the United States between February 2012 and February 2013. The latest forecasts from Canada Mortage and Housing Corporation indicate a strong housing demand into 2014, at which time a strengthened economy will energize both resale and new housing markets. Buyers will need to be prepared to purchase inventory right away, while sellers will need to price their homes right for the best chance of sale. The following are some guidelines.

Your dream home doesn’t have to be just a dream (MS) -- The dream of owning your own vacation home is one shared by men and women all over the world. Who wouldn’t want their very own sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of every day life? According to Andrew Nadalin, President of Pace 2000 Inc., a leading custom home builder in Port St. Lucie, Florida, many people not only want their own vacation home, but they already know what it is they want from their home. “We’re finding that customers have very definite ideas of what they want in their dream homes,” says Nadalin. “They’ve waited until just the right time to make that dream come true, and they don’t want to compromise the image they have in their mind of what their ultimate home will feature.” When it comes to finding a place to call home away from home, consumers tend to prefer somewhere that offers year round warm weather and unlimited games of golf, as well as proximity to local shopping hotspots and access to community activities. This puts a premium on warm weather locales such as Port St. Lucie, which was named one of the 10 fastest growing cities in the country, providing vacationers all the warm weather golf, shopping and nightlife they need. Located at the southern end of mainland St. Lucie County, in the southeastern part of the state, Port St. Lucie has been called the Jewel of

the Treasure Coast. More than 300 years ago, several Spanish galleons carrying gold and silver are thought to have shipwrecked off the southeastern shore of Florida, dumping their vast treasures into the ocean. And the Treasure Coast was born. But locale likely won’t be all that’s on the minds of men and women shopping for a vacation home. Before shoppers start their search, Nadalin offers the following advice. * Consider custom built. Many consumers might think custom built homes are beyond their price range, but such homes are growing in popularity. “Sometimes customers come to us with a lot already chosen, other times we help them find just the right lot,” says Nadalin. “But they always have definite ideas about what is going on the property.” Much of the benefit of a custom built home lies in the options a homeowner has as opposed to a resale where many of the decisions have already been made. Buyers who choose a custom built home can select the features and layout they want, instead of being forced to live with the design preferred by a home’s previous owners. * Work with someone you can trust. Because it’s a vacation home, chances are buyers won’t know any local builders or contractors they can trust. Nadalin notes that buyers should be comfortable with a builder and avoid those who aren’t

ready and willing to discuss their history. “It’s important to look for a builder that can deliver hands-on experience, dedication and commitment to the project,” says Nadalin. “The builder should have as much passion for fulfilling the quest for the dream home as the customer does.” Shop around for a builder, asking other residents of the community if they can recommend any professionals and if there are any to avoid. Once you have narrowed down the list, ask to see some past and current projects, and be as diligent as possible when doing your homework on a builder. If a builder is reticent about his company and work history, it’s best to cross him off the list.
