Long to-do list for Greater Napanee council BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter
Greater Napanee’s new council was sworn in on Tuesday with a long list of projects to complete and ideas to bring to the table. Mayor Gord Schermerhorn, Ward 1 councillor Michael Schenk, and Ward 5 councillor Shaune Lucas all kept their previous posi-
tions. Previous Ward 3 councillor Marg Isbester has now officially been sworn in as the new deputy mayor, and previous deputy mayor Roger Cole has been sworn in as Ward 3 councillor. Carol Harvey now represents Ward 4, replacing Bill Pierson; and Max Kaiser now represents Ward 2, replacing Shane Grant. Prior to the inaugural meeting, Chief Administrative Officer Ray

Callery congratulated councils of the past for all the hard work put in to better the municipality. “The accomplishments since amalgamation, in 1997, have been enormous. Those accomplishments have come from a community that’s willing to work with council, and from a council that’s willing to work with staff. The relationship between this staff and council really is the envy of other municipali-

ties,” said Callery. Schermerhorn said he looks forward to working with council, staff and the community to move the municipality forward. “I enjoy working with council. We must work as a team to see the community grow. I enjoy working with staff, we do have a great staff that council can look to,” said Schermerhorn. “We have a number of projects for the next four years

and much longer than that, and a tough budget year coming up.” Schermerhorn noted the $30 million in road development and upgrading in the municipality, as well as the need for a new sewer plant, which should keep budget meetings busy this term. Other projects are also on the agenda, he said.

Blugh headed to CFL Hall of Fame BY SETH DUCHENE Editor
Although Napanee’s own Leroy Blugh has already effectively cemented his reputation as one of the best Canadian football players of all time, formal recognition of that fact came last week. On Friday, the Canadian Football League announced that Blugh — an NDSS graduate who went on to have a great career as a defensive end with the Edmonton Eskimos and Toronto Argonauts — would be part of the 2015 class of inductees into the Canadian Football Hall of Fame. “It’s a tremendous honour to be selected and inducted,” Blugh told reporters during a conference call on Friday. He thanked his family, as well as those he played with and against during his career, which spanned
from 1989 to 2003. “I was very fortunate to be able to play with some great football players,” he said. “With a group such as that, it just makes your game that much better… I accept the award on behalf of those guys, because it wouldn’t be possible without the teammates that I had.” Blugh said news of his pending induction came in the form of an unexpected phone call from CFL commissioner Mark Cohon a few weeks ago. At first, Blugh recalled, he thought it was someone playing a prank. “I was caught completely off-guard. I was completely unaware of how and when these things happen, and I was very surprised, but very thankful,” he said. After graduating from NDSS, Blugh went on to play for the Bishops Gaiters in Canadian university football. He was drafted by the Eskimos, and played for that team

from 1989 to 2000. During that decade-plus stint with the Eskies, Blugh would win a Grey Cup in 1993, and a Most Outstanding Canadian player award in 1996. He was named to the CFL all-star team in 1996 and 1998. “I’m grateful to be recognized with some of the top players that have played in this league and to be included in that group,” he said. “It’s just absolutely amazing

and I’m very happy. I was fortunate enough to win a few awards, but this is sort of the icing on the cake as far as my football career is concerned.” When asked to pick one highlight from his 15 year career, he admitted it was hard but pointed to a stretch in Edmonton, just prior to winning the Grey Cup. “I think one of the great moments was something that happened as a team,” recalled Blugh. “We had a bit of a losing streak in 1993, I think we had a lost four of six games or something. We called a team meeting to get everybody refocused and understand that we’re all in this together and we’re playing for one another. We went on an 11-0 run and won the Grey Cup that year. To go through something like that with a group of guys where everybody has a common goal, where everybody’s working towards that goal, that’s one of the top moments that I’ll

more driven than ever to make his mark as a pro football coach; he admits that, eventually, he’d like to move into a defensive coordinator or head coaching role. “There is a going to be a lot of work and things to go into that. To receive this award at this time, it’s great motivation, and it just inspires me to do even more and to do better,” he said. Naturally Blugh was glued to the TV on Sunday to watch the Calgary Stampeders edged the Hamilton Tiger-Cats 20-16 in the 102nd Grey Cup. “I think I made it to three Grey Cups and only won one, so I know how the Hamilton guys feel,” said Blugh. “It will take a few days to sink in but hopefully they’ll be happy with getting to that point and using it for motivation to get back there and win it.” Other inductees for 2015 include Bob O’Billovich, Dave Dickenson, Larry Reda, Eddie Davis. Gene Makowsky and Bob Wetenhall. “Just to be included in that group, to me, is a tremendous honour,” Blugh said. “There are some great, great football players, and to be included in this group, to me, is fantastic, and it sort of recognizes the work and effort that I put in during my career. I’m very, very thankful.” With notes from Adam Prudhomme.

always remember, I’ll never forget that.” When his playing days ended in 2003, Blugh joined the Canadian football coaching ranks. He was the head coach of the Gaiters from 2005-2010, then joined the Queen’s Golden Gaels staff as an assistant coach for 201112. After a one-year stint as the defensive line coach for the Eskimos in 2013, he joined the expansion Ottawa RedBlacks as the team’s defensive line coach for this season. He still holds that post. Blugh said that his time on the gridiron as a member of the NDSS Golden Hawks helped set him on the path to a career in pro football. “The coaches that we had during high school assisted me to be able to realize that I had an opportunity to go on, and that foundation that I had coming from Napanee enabled me to go on to Bishops University,” he said when asked about his years in Napanee. “I’m very thankful for my experience in Napanee,” he continued. “We had a bunch of selfless coaches that put extra time in and recognized that the players on the teams that we had, the guys really wanted to work hard. They really put a lot of time in and helped us, and made the game fun.” With this newest accolade, Blugh said that he’s

COUNCIL FROM PAGE 1 “A task force is being made for a new pool, to see what we can do for a new pool in our community. So it’s not going to be an easy next four years. Some hard decisions are going to have to be made and I look forward to leading council on those decisions. Together, I look forward to seeing this community growing even more, and seeing more progress,” he said. Part of Schermerhorn’s plan for growth includes increased assessment. His top priority is to attract the new Goodyear plant to come to Greater Napanee. Lucas added his plans for the next term, which include increasing communication among council and the residents. “The last several months, I’ve listened to the public,” he said. “The word ‘communication’ came up a lot, with the councillors and the people elected, and I think this council needs to look at how we engage the public, how we engage each other, how we engage staff.” Isbester agreed, stating increased communication should be a top priority. “I appreciate all the comments that have been made about more communication and I think that’s something that needs to be looked at at our first business meeting,” she added. Lucas said social media and utilizing the Internet are a few ways council and staff should look into better communicating with Greater Napanee residents.
T H E
“Our public are the people I work for and we need to create a mechanism to get them more involved,” he said. Isbester said involvement goes both ways and asked that more people come forward to sit on committees and volunteer throughout the municipality. “This is a progressive community and we can’t do it without you so please take part in it,” she said. Isbester also put out a challenge to the current council: to work as one to better Greater Napanee as a whole. “We are a community, we should not be divided by the five wards,” said Isbester. “Yes there are times we don’t all agree and at times we can get a little testy, but we also need to understand how important it is to work as a unit.” Schenk shared the same opinion, stating while he has disagreed with some issues within the council chambers, he hasn’t allowed it to fog his judgement while representing the municipality. “Sure there’s been difference of opinions but the end goal for the municipality is always taken to heart: what’s best for the municipality?” said Schenk. Cole said it was a “pleasure” to be back on council and thanked municipal staff, especially, for being council's backbone through the years and into the next term. “Council is only as good as its management staff.
N A PA N E E
This town has a wonderful group of people. We can always depend on them to support us,” said Cole. Each of council’s new members gave short and sweet statements thanking their families and supporters for allowing them the opportunity to represent Greater Napanee. “I want to thank those that have gone before — both the councillors that are outgoing this time — and also for all of those who are sitting here today, and that I get to join along with you and take part in this. I have some leadership experience but I have no assumptions of anything at this table — my eyes are open, my ears are open, and I'm really excited and looking forward to the next four years,” said Kaiser. “Thank you very much for giving me the opportunity to be here. I’m looking forward to being a productive part of council for the next four years. I’ve had a lot of support from family, friends, and certainly all of Ward 4,” stated Harvey. Callery gave his advice to the new council during the meeting: “You have to make sure that you’re listening to the public but you also making sure that you’re leading. You were all elected to represent the community and we look forward, as staff, to help you to meet the mandates that you give.”

Deseronto
New council members take their seats BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter
After Deseronto’s inaugural council meeting last week, Mayor Norm Clark told the new council to take time to relax for the time being, because there will be a lot of business to take care of in the New Year. Clark retained his previous position as mayor, which is the only position that stayed the same for Deseronto council. Previous Deputy Mayor Clarence Zieman is now officially a councillor, and previous councillor Dan Johnston is the new deputy mayor. Trish Dickinson and Steven Everhardus have replaced Edgar Tumak and Dennis Tompkins as councillors. “I would say to the new council to enjoy the next few days, and Christmas, because after that we’re going to be really, really busy. It’s going to be a working council, a hard working council. We have a lot to do,” said Clark during the inaugural meeting at town hall last Thursday. “We’re going to have to make some changes and so on but I think we have the councillors that are up to it. I would say to council that you have to make some really tough decisions sometimes. Sometimes they’re not popular decisions, but you have to make the decisions based on what’s best for the community as a whole,” Clark said. He said the most important thing is reviewing all the facts before making a decision. Moving forward, he wants council to be more transparent – sharing facts with
the public so residents are aware of why council makes the decisions it makes. “Some residents don’t know all the facts and they wonder why we make decisions. Once we get all the facts, then we make decisions on what we have to do. We have to get that out to the people of Deseronto so they know exactly why that decision was made,” said Clark. “We will meet with the community on a regular basis, so that everyone: the community, council, the people who own property even outside of Deseronto, will know what’s going on. Then when decisions are made, they will be able to understand why those decisions were made.” Zieman explained his decision in deciding to step down from deputy mayor to councillor, and wished the best to Johnston. “Dan asked me if I would be running for deputy mayor last year and I looked at this young man who wanted to be deputy mayor and I said, ‘Why not?’ He needs a chance to move up. I’m getting older and older and he’s getting younger and younger so we’re going forward,” said Zieman, who added that he’s confident that Johnston will serve the community well as deputy mayor. “I’ll pass the torch and I’m glad to be around to provide my years of experience.” He said he is pleased to have a new, young, hard-working council that can help move Deseronto in the right direction. “We also have (two new members) that are going to help us a great deal as well, I’m sure. I’m looking forward to this year,” said Zieman.

Stage is set for 35th Newburgh concert
BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter
This marks the 35th year the Newburgh Annual Community Christmas Concert will bring the community together, while also providing a special Christmas to over 100 local children. This year’s concert, being a 35th anniversary edition, is meant to be funnier and more entertaining than ever. The original script, written by a team of local writers, includes current news-related events, traditional Christmas themes, and entertainment by local children. “We always try to write something that’s new and in the news, something that everybody knows about, that’s happened this year. This year is no exception,” said Mary Anne Wood, one of the organizers who has been a part of the Annual Community Christmas Concert in Newburgh since it began. “I think we’re probably going to take a trip this year because apparently the North Pole has legalized mistle-juana. We have a bit of a skit on that. Those are the kinds of things you’re going to see when you come to the concert,” she said. The kids’ portion of the concert will be based on Frozen. Another concert tradition is that the men always perform in drag “and they won’t disappoint this year either,” said Wood. And of course, being a Christmas concert, the concert will also include the nativity scene. “This is our 35th annual, so it’s a bit of an anniversary. It’s pretty phenomenal. We had our first show in 1978, missed a few in there, but that’s how long we’ve been running. We’re excited to be back for another year,” said Wood. There are 18 full-time cast members and another four or five part-time cast members that will be performing this year’s concert. “Many of our cast members are 20 years and up, in terms of length of time performing here. We have three generations now in the show, which is really kind of a fun thing to be a part of,” said Wood. All of the performers are local amateurs. “Everybody kind of originated from this area,” said Wood. The majority of the performers are from Newburgh, Napanee, Kingston and Tamworth.

The cast of the 35th annual Newburgh Community Christmas Concert have been hard at work practicing for this year’s shows. “The whole reason why we even began this concert was really just to bring the community together,” said Wood. “As always, there is no admission fee, everyone is welcome to attend our concert. We do provide a donation basket and for about the past 32 years, we’ve been working with Family and Children Services, as we are again this year.” Last year, more than $12,000 was raised from the Community Christmas Concert’s two weekend shows. That provided Christmas gifts to 150 local kids. “We try to do a full Christmas for every child. We always get at least one full set of clothing, we always try to get some PJs, we try to get socks and underwear, if we have enough leftover then also mitts and hats. Besides that, we always provide at least one toy. So basically the hope is that every child has at least three or four presents under the tree,” she explained. Each year, the Newburgh Annual Community Christmas Concert provides Christmas gifts for 110-150 children from Lennox and Addington County. “It’s an amazing experience. This is so wonderful, you always feel so wonderful for doing the concert but that day, shopping for
about 125 kids – as you can imagine there are shopping carts and shopping carts all lined up,” said Wood. She said the team of shoppers has become really great at working on a budget. “There’s always a budget. Last year we topped $12,000. It sounds like a fantastic amount of money, but if you divide it by 150 kids, it comes out to about $80 a kid. That really isn’t much money,” she explained, still showing her gratitude to the community for supporting such a great cause. “It’s fantastic that two shows can make that kind of money. That’s such a community outpouring of love. We’ve become masters at being able to fit the budget. And Target is fantastic, they are so accommodating, they give us about 10 per cent off, right across the board. And on $12,000, that’s a lot of money that Target gives to us to shop in their stores, so we’re really grateful for that,” said Wood. The 35th Annual Community Christmas Concert will take place at the Newburgh Public School on Dec. 13, with shows at 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. The next day, the cast and crew will be off to Target with the donated money to, “shop ‘till we drop,” said Wood.

Picturing Our Community
Canadiens’ sad day One of the ‘perks’ of this business is, from time to time, you not only get to meet somebody famous, you get a chance to talk with them as well. It’s a professional exchange, of course, but at the same time, you count yourself lucky to have an opportunity that other folks might not have. I had one of those encounters relatively early in my career, when the Downtown Napanee BIA invited former Montreal Canadiens great Jean Beliveau to be the group’s guest speaker at the annual awards dinner in the late 1990s. And, as part of that visit, I got a chance to talk with Beliveau. Truth be told, I’m not a Montreal Canadiens fan; I wasn’t starstruck by the encounter like a true Habs fan might be. However, even the most ardent ‘anti-Hab’ who’s a real hockey fan still has a deep respect for the Canadiens’ tradition — and I certainly respected the Canadiens. And I knew going in that, if his press clippings were true, he embodied the best of the Canadiens’ tradition. On that score, he didn’t disappoint. Even in a 10-minute conversation, I was struck by his sincerity and his approachability. He was a hockey legend, but he carried himself with a rare humility. At the time, he had only recently passed up the opportunity given to him by then PM Jean Chretien to be Canada’s governor-general. Let that sink in for a bit. He was given the chance to be our country’s head of state, and he turned it down. I’ve since learned that he also turned down two offers to be named to the senate by then PM Brian Mulroney, too. The cynic in me suspects that politicians were eager to attach their own names to Beliveau’s for the ‘bump’ it would give them. However, after meeting him and speaking with him in person, I could easily see why he was approached. For lack of a better description, he had the bearing of a true statesman — and, in senators and in governors general, that’s exactly the kind of person you’d want. So, when I heard yesterday morning that Beliveau had died, I had a good idea of what kind of person the Canadiens — and Canadians — have lost. He was one of the best, in more ways than one.

Letter to the Editor
Heaping praise on columnist Terry Sprague I have been a resident of this blessed Prince Edward County now for nine-and-a-half years, and enjoyed just about every minute of it. I adore reading our local newspapers and staying current with all of the challenges and victories within our communities. I can’t call myself an ‘active ecology or environmental proponent’, more like one of the lazy ones who spouts lots of opinions, without necessarily showing any commitment through action. Hence, I’ve been meaning to write this note to Terry Sprague since I first started reading his columns, whenever that started! To say I am impressed with you and your body of work would be an understatement — perhaps feeling more... blessed. Your words, thoughts, and explanations have led me to an appreciation of our world that I already thought I appreciated. You
give thoughtfulness, and knowledge, and wisdom, and breadth to each topic you address. Whether it’s about deer, bird feeders, turtles, those pre/dawn walks. Appreciation — that’s the word — of our stunning and regular but magnificent natural world! It is impossible to be indifferent to what is happening ‘out there’ after reading one of your columns. It just makes me want to stand up and shout about how incredibly awesome the universe is. I was so devastated to hear you had decided to bring your columns to an end. To me, that makes no sense. What will the county do without your quiet, thoughtful observations of life in ‘the universe’?

Thursday, December 4, 2014 COLUMN FROM PAGE 6 My only slight critique was that I thought you, at times, avoided the ‘politics of nature’ and although your recent column addressing the wind turbine issue no longer puts you in that camp, it is not that column that finally ignited me to write. Rather, it is due to the loss of my mother this past couple of months, which has given great space and time, and void and loss. So, there are many things to mourn in this beautiful, majestic, mundane, and desecrated planet we live in right now. Everyone who reads your columns is a better person for having taken the time to engage in your writing. Thank you. It’s my hope that I missed the column where you said, ‘Gee folks, I’ve decided not to stop after all.’ Or minimally, ‘I’ve found this savvy young person who wants to step into the void and fill my column with their own thought-filled observations about life in the universe.’ If I am merely dreaming, then I am saddened. I know that what you’ve given us readers in this newspaper has been an opening into worlds that we often ignorantly plod through, in, and around — oblivious to the miracle that is our natural world. And for that, I will say thank you once more! Cindy McNeely, Picton

Letter To The Editor
Unfortunate situation, terrible attitude Thanksgiving means (according to Google) feasting, four day weekends, floats, football games, family reunions or a prelude to Christmas. It also means expressing gratitude for what we have, to gather in unity for a common purpose. It is a reconciliation of differences and a time of healing. I could go on about the religious side of it for various types of religions, special relationship bonds and abundant blessings. This morning, however, I was reading The Toronto Star – something I do every day – when I came across an article by Olivia Carmide that shocked me – especially on this day that many Americans consider even more important than Christ-
mas. The article was about the young black man who died in Ferguson, Missouri. Protests are taking place all over the U.S. and even in Canada – specifically in Toronto – in front of the U.S. consulate. We are a democratic country (at least we try to be most of the time) and I had no problem with the protest taking place; however, I became very disappointed as I continued to read this column. A seven-year-old girl was holding a blood-splattered sign that read “black lives matter”. Emilie’s mother, Elsio Maroon, one of the organizers, was rallying the crowd and shouting — and I quote here — “We need to stand up and say
enough is enough.” So far, so good. But what followed infuriated me. An online comment on Facebook from the organizers suggested that all white or non-black people stand at the back, not speak to the media, and “refrain from taking up space in all ways possible.” It read, “Remember, you are there in support of black folks, so should never be at the centre of anything”, the post stated. The Star reporter asked if the protest was “an antiracist rally or a pro-segregation one.” We will never know exactly what happened in Ferguson. Perhaps this group of protesters should remember the meaning of Thanks-
giving instead of spouting insults to those who were there in support of the cause. I guess the non-blacks should have just gotten out of the way and minded their own business even if they were there for moral support. Remember the story of the brave woman, Rosa Parks? I wonder what she would have thought of these comments. What that lady said was inappropriate and will not help her cause. Had I been there for support I would have left immediately never to return.

Staff picks: The Silent Sister Marg Wood of the Napanee Branch of the County of L&A Libraries recently finished The Silent Sister, a new book by thriller novelist Diane Chamberlain. “I have been waiting w i t h anticipation to read T h e Coles’ Silent Sister, the latest book by Diane Chamberlain, and I was not disappointed,” says Marg. “I have been a fan of this author since I read The Secret Life of CeeCee Wilkes a few years ago and
have enjoyed several other titles by her since then. “Riley MacPherson has always believed that her teenaged sister Lisa, a child-prodigy violinist, committed suicide when Riley was just t w o years o l d .

hermit living in a dilapidated trailer in his fathers’ RV park. He wants nothing to do with going through their fathers’ things. “While sifting through paperwork Riley soon discovers evidence that her sister may actually be alive and living under an assumed identity. The more Riley digs the larger the web of lies grows and the more determined she becomes to get to the truth of what really happened within her family all those years ago. This novel is full of twists and turns as we learn Lisa’s true story and discover the secrets and lies that have plagued and haunted the dysfunctional MacPherson family. “I would describe the writing style of Diane
Chamberlain as a cross between Jodi Picoult and Kristan Hannah with a little Barbara Delinsky thrown in,” Marg concludes. “I suggest that fans of these authors give this book a try.” The Silent Sister can be reserved in print, e-book

Stop living at work, start working at living There seems to be a rumour that I am retiring. It’s true. I know how to retire as I have done it before, and may even do it again. The first time was in 2004 from the office scene at Quinte Conservation. Funniest thing though. After the party at the Waring House, not much really changed. The only difference in my routine was in the purchase of office equipment — new computer, high speed printer and scanner and some upgrades to existing equipment here and there. As memories of the Waring House dessert still lingered on my palate, I found myself still employed — on contract, they called it — and digital files flew back and forth through cyberspace as I enjoyed my new working arrangement. Instead of clocking in at 8:30 a.m., I started work at 5 a.m., my peak hour, gradually deteriorating as the day wore on, and calling it a day at 2 p.m. I was wireless, but wired emotionally, with the new arrangement, and I didn’t have to drive to work. Life was good. As the years passed, I gradually pulled out of those things I didn’t particularly enjoy doing anymore and increased my work load at home, running much of what I did through my business NatureStuff Tours. I did some environmental contract work on highway projects. My favourite was at the new Salmon River Bridge on the 401 where we devised ways to keep a colony of barn swallows from nesting
under the structure while deconstruction of the bridge was taking place. I learned construction speak, and how to hang on to my hard hat and safety vest whenever an 18-wheeler sped by me. I learned quickly to wear ear protectors as the noise beside 401 is absolutely deafening. At Brighton, I watched a burly, hairy-chested worker in a tank top with a cigar hanging out of his mouth, absolutely melt when he put down his jack hammer and peered into a 401 overpass conduit where a pair of rough-winged swallows had young. The heads of three tiny nestlings begging for food popped up the moment I shone the flashlight into the conduit. A compromise was reached. Workers could continue on the other side of the bridge, and the side with the nesting birds could wait for one more week. I have acted as a step on guide for incoming bus tours to the area. I even organized a few bus tours to Algonquin Park, rented a full sized coach (ever rent a 56-passenger tour bus?), then trembled as I tried to fill it. Wanting to work in a few perks, I included the noon meal as part of the package, not really knowing how much passengers would eat. Some ate nothing, a few ate next to nothing, and a few others wouldn’t stop eating. I watched in horror as the cash register receipt spiralled out onto the floor from the till and snaked its way to a neighbouring table.
Terry Sprague
Outdoor Rambles Reeling in the 15 feet or so of cash register tape, I was astonished when the grand total came to a scary five dollars under what I had budgeted! It was the last bus trip I ever organized as I couldn’t take the stress! One learned to have a backup plan. One fall colour bus trip I organized to Jones Fall, a location well known for its fall colour, happened to fall in a year when there was no colour. Instead, we made it a shopping trip, invading the famous Kilborn’s Store in Newboro, then moved on to Foley Mountain and Village Green in Westport. Retirement? Likely “restructuring” is a more accurate term as I wrap up the programs of guided hikes that I have conducted across eastern Ontario for 19 years, and move on to another chapter in my life. It has been a journey, one filled with humorous
misadventures and camaraderie involving an amazing 25,722 participants that has been just short of incredible. It has been an accident-free 19 years, and we never lost a soul, always coming out of the woods with as many as we went in with (to the best of my knowledge). A colleague once dubbed me the “pied piper of nature”. And, I guess I was, as I always seemed to have 15 to 30 participants behind me. My wife once commented how lucky I was to be a male as I could simply duck in behind a tree when it came time to answer the call of nature. Not if you are a hike leader, for they follow you everywhere! Part of reason for there being no incidents on our guided hikes, was our attention to detail. I had to know the route well, whether it was one kilometre or 13 kilometres, as it is always best not to lead 30 hikers into a dead end. It’s hard to turn them around when they are fixated in one direction. We travelled with cell phones, walkie-talkies, GPS and compass, leaving nothing to chance. Hikers were always well informed as to the expected terrain, length of hike, and anticipated weather for the day. Not once did we ever have to pull out the first aid kit. Quite a record, considering some of these long distance hikers were in their 60s and 70s with a few even in their 80s. They wrote the book on fitness and we could all learn from them.
As I ponder what direction my life will take now, I still plan to be on the trails. After all, I am only 70, and in reasonably good health. There is one 26-km hike I want to do, but I tremble when I think it will be on arthritic feet and ankles, helped along with an Obus back support and walking poles! But, it has become a distraction and I will likely do it soon, as it won’t get any easier the longer I leave it. I am also contemplating three more books. I am well into one right now called “Naked in the Sand”, a collection of some of our humorous misadventures over the years. Regrettably, my increased interest in writing will not include the outdoors column that I have written for the Picton Gazette for 50 years, the Napanee Beaver for nine years, and the Tweed News for eight years. After 2,600 columns, it is time for the column to retire while it can do so with dignity. I feel that is important as I want to say a proper goodbye in a couple weeks to those who have supported the column and our outdoor program for so many years. It’s time to move on. After all, I may want to retire again 10 years or so down the road. For more information on today’s topic, please e-mail tsprague@kos.net or phone 613 848-4549.

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 50 Years Ago December 2, 1964 n A Napanee man was counting his blessings after narrowly escaping death in a brush with a moving train. Robert E. Reid was driving along Belleville Road when the car he was travelling in hit the side of a train that was passing by a level crossing. His car was demolished and carried nearly 150 feet along the track after impact. Reid, however, emerged from the wreck complaining of nothing more than a ‘wrenched back’. He was taken to Kingston General Hospital for examination. n Municipalities around the region were holding nomination meetings in advance of upcoming council elections. These nomination meetings could often result in some “fiery meetings” as candidates for office traded verbal barbs with one another. Among some of the more high-profile electoral contests was the one for mayor of Napanee, with incumbent Glenn Harrington facing off against councillor and former mayor Lorne Smart. Also in Napanee, reeve Claude Knight was seeking re-election against Clarence Milligan, while deputy-reeve Henry Wightman would seek re-election against councillor Grant Clark.
35 Years Ago November 28, 1979 n After a horrifying ordeal of nearly a year, four young members of a family forced to evacuate South Vietnam had found a home in Napanee. The Lam family — three brothers and a sister — were sponsored to come to Canada by the Lennox and Addington Refugee Co-ordinating Committee. Just more than eight months earlier, the family had been forced to leave that country because of their Chinese heritage. Fleeing and leaving all behind them, they and more than 500 other evacuees sailed on cramped craft for 45 day before making it to safety in Malaysia. n Local motorists had a difficult time managing with the first big snowfall of the winter season. Several accidents were reported along Highway 401 and on other local roads. A 27-year-old Napanee man was in critical condition after the car he was in left the road and crashed into a culvert on County Rd. 8. A 17-year-old Milton boy, meanwhile, suffered serious injuries after the eastbound car he was travelling in lost control and hit two trees south of the highway near Switzerville Road.

It has been an exciting few weeks in the art world. First was the estate sale of John Laurel Russel and his partner Gerrald Brenner in Kingston, and then last week’s Heffel Fine Art Auction House fall auction in Toronto, where record breaking amounts for art was seen. Russel was known as the dean of Canadian art and antique dealers and is among the few members of the art trade honoured with membership in the order of Canada. His Montreal Gallery was Canada’s leading source of rarities in antiques and decorative art. Russel was often contracted by the Canadian government to research, consult and acquire gifts for International occasions, for example, the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana. Brenner was an important part of the gallery operations and was widely admired for his stylish manner and friendliness. The Montreal Gallery was moved to Gananoque in the 1980s and flourished there for a number of years. As Russel and Brenner aged, it became necessary to reduce operations and they moved to Kingston where they lived amongst many of the fine works of art they had assembled over the years. My husband Saeid and I were fortunate to attend the auction sale a few weeks ago in Kingston and witness the collection of eclectic antiques and original works of art with such historical significance, splendour and breathtaking value. The history of such paintings, such as an oil portrait of Major General Wolfe at Louisburg, circa 1727-69, which sold for $27,000. An oil on panel ‘Kingston from Fort Henry’ painting, circa 19th century by Canadian artist D. Holloway, sold for $33,000. The auction had many other well known and spectacular paintings and works of art. Last week the Heffel Fine Art Auction House had it fall auction at the Park Hyatt Hotel in Toronto. This auction featured key pieces of original Canadian art and reflected the strength of the country’s art market. A painting by Group of Seven artist Lawren Harris was the star attraction. His painting ‘Houses on Gerrard Street’ more than doubled its pre-auction estimate of $350,000-$450,000 and sold for $1.12 million. Five works by Jean Paul Riopelle, including Ombrages and Sans titre surpassed estimates and sold for a combined $2.25 million. The Heffel Auction set

price. You should know all the factors that can affect the price of a work of art, which include: Primary vs. secondary market. Prices bought on the primary market (ie. You’re the first owner) tend to be less expensive than those bought on the secondary market (ie. Previously owned works being sold privately, through gallery or at auction). Rarity: Is the piece oneof-a-kind or one of 100? Medium: A work on canvas is more valuable than one on paper. Period: For certain artists, one period within his/her career can be far more valuable than another. Gallery: High-end galleries will generally charge higher prices for artists than less-established galleries, so be aware of the reputation of the gallery you are buying from. Talk to an appraiser or experienced collector about the price you are paying. Research can only get you so far. Before cutting a cheque, talk to someone about whether you’re getting a reasonable price. It’s hard to establish comparable value in art, so ask the opinion of a professional appraiser or experienced art collector to make sure you don’t overpay. For first-time buyers, auction houses can be a great way to acquire work of art. While the big-name auction houses may be out of your price range, there are plenty of smaller, regional auction houses where high-quality works are available at lower price points. Attend some auctions beforehand, so when you do decide to make a bid, you feel comfortable doing so.

Folk singer ready to perform for ‘Museum Kids’
BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter
Story time will be infused with music at the Lennox and Addington County Museum and Archives this Saturday for the latest Museum Kids program. Folk singer Steve Tanner, armed with his guitar, will be on hand to perform timeless traditional classics such as ‘This Old Man’, ‘Mockingbird’, ‘The Ants Go Marching’, as well as some
cherished Christmas songs. “It tells a story very differently than what we hear contemporarily,” Tanner said of folk music. His performance will be interactive as the kids are encouraged to take part and sing along. By engaging the kids he’s hoping to make it a more memorable experience rather than simply having them sit there and listen. “All the kids are going to make a little percussion instrument so they have
something to play along with and take away,” said Tanner. His workshop will have an educational portion to it as he will also recant the story behind some of the songs, some of which have origins that date back centuries. That makes it a perfect fit to host the workshop in the museum. Parents are encouraged to take part in the fun as many of the songs will be familiar to them from their childhood. “I’m going to work in

some more older age group songs just to give a flavour of what folk music really is,” said Tanner. “Songs about the logging industry and other songs that flesh out the history.” Tanner says it’s not uncommon to find a centuries old song working its way into a modern pop hit. Many popular songs have lyrics that have been ‘borrowed’ from an older folk song. “The Beatles did a song called ‘Golden Slumber Carry That Weight’,” said Tanner. “It’s actually a 1600s lullaby. So many of our contemporary music influences, the Eric Claptons, the Jeff Becks, The Jimmy Pages, (have songs based on centuries old folk songs).” By hosting a workshop
Folk singer Steve Tanner. like this for kids, Tanner is hoping to keep the tradition alive of sharing stories through song. He’s also hoping to perhaps inspire some budding musicians in the group to take up an instrument. “It’s something they will have for the rest of their lives,” Tanner said of playing music. “Pete Seeger
was 94 when he passed away, and he was still playing right up to the end.” The workshop is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. and is free for all ages. The Museum Kids program is part of an ongoing series at the newly renovated Museum and Archives, which welcomes a new guest every month.
ESS revives musical for holiday season BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter
For the first time in over 20 years, Ernestown Secondary School will be performing a Christmas musical. In a cast made up of about 25 students, Seussical the Musical is set to take the stage Dec. 5 and 6 at 7 p.m. each night, at the school. About 15 more students have been working behind the scenes to make the performance a success. ESS drama teacher Jen Ellis is directing the musical, while music teacher Tim Stiff is the music director. “Tim and I just thought we had a great bunch of students and a lot of really talented Grade 12s, so we
Season’s Greetings
wanted to give them the opportunity (to perform) before they graduated,” explained Ellis. Students from Grades 9-12 have parts in the musical. “We chose Seussical because even though they are Dr. Seuss characters, the truth behind their stories resonates for everyone, especially teenagers. Not really feeling like you fit in, and feeling like you’re alone, trying to impress someone you like by changing yourself and realizing that it doesn’t even matter because they liked you as you were before; there’s a lot of truth in it that rang true for teenagers,” said Ellis. Seussical the Musical includes characters from a number of Dr. Seuss’s most well known books, including Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, and the Grinch. “Pieces from a lot of his stories are woven together in the musical,” explained
Ellis, guaranteeing an entertaining evening for those considering coming to the musical next week. Ellis said a musical is long overdue for Ernestown. Students and staff are excited to bring music back to the school’s stage, and show off all their hard work. “They haven’t done a musical since the early 90s. They did a play a few years ago, but they haven’t done a musical for over 20 years. So it’s exciting for us,” said Ellis. “The cast has been working really hard on putting this together,” she added, explaining that both students and staff were under a tight schedule to get the musical ready for the Christmas season. “The kids have had to work extra hard to get things ready.” Tickets for the musical are available at the school’s main office and are $10 for adults and $8 for students.

J.J. O’Neill school to present A Christmas Carol next week
BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter
Next Wednesday and Thursday evening, JJ O’Neill Catholic School invite members of the public to come to the school to see a studentrun performance of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. “It’s a Christmas classic and the kids are trying really hard to bring it to life,” said Grade 4/5 teacher Danielle Kennedy, one of the teacher directors for the performance. “There are about 47 in the cast and crew combined. It’s pretty much entirely student-run. When the show is on, it’s all the kids on stage, all the kids doing all the set changes and all the backstage work,” Kennedy added. Students and staff have been working on the performance since September. The production includes a student choir and actors and actresses from Grades 5-8. Gregory Roth, Grade 7, will be performing as Ebenezer Scrooge in the classic Christmas story. “I start off as the measly old man who really doesn’t like spending any money, who basically hates Christmas because it’s just a time for wasting money. Until I’m haunted by three spirits; warned by my dead co-partner, Jacob Marley. I’m put on a somewhat terrifying journey, to me, about what Christmas really means. After I am finally changed, I decide to help out a little bit more,” Roth said, explaining his character in his own words. Roth said this is the first time he’s ever acted on stage. He was encouraged by his family and is glad to
have stepped up for the part in this play, since he's now found a new passion for the arts. “It’s really fun; you get to play around with the roles, kind of fit into somebody that you’re not. It’s a lot of work but I think I could do this quite a few more times,” said Roth. Edmund Hetke, Grade 8, will be performing as Fred, Scrooge’s nephew and only living relative. “I am the guy who is trying to kind of make Scrooge like Christmas better and make his Christmas spirits more enthusiastic,” Hetke said, explaining his character in his own words. “It’s an experience that will make people laugh and it entertains people and I really like entertaining people,” he added. Hetke also played Gaston in JJ O'Neill’s school performance of Beauty and the Beast last year. “Musicals and plays are really fun to do so I would love to continue doing them in the future,” said Hetke. Silas Mahoney, Grade 7, will be performing as Bob Cratchit, who works for Scrooge. “He is the employee of Scrooge who is terrified of him and won’t do anything unless he tells him to and one little mistake could get him fired,” Mahoney said. Mahoney also performed in Beauty in the Beast last year, as Maurice. The year before that, he played Aladdin in that school play. “The experience of getting to be up on the stage — it feels great acting, being up there, getting laughs,” said Mahoney.

Kennedy said she is really impressed with what the students have pulled together in such a short time. In past years, performances have taken to the stage in the spring, giving students and staff a few extra months to prepare. “It’s smaller scale than the other major productions but it’s still pretty impressive for kids that are 10-14 years old,” she said. French teacher Laura Gowsell and arts teacher Stephen Kennedy are the other teacher directors for the Christmas show. Performances take place at the school Dec. 10 and 11 at 6:30 p.m. each night. Admission is by donation; however, in order to guarantee a seat, those interested are asked to call the office to reserve a seat since space is limited.

Gale Rogers has been allowing families to visit his woodlot on Pringle Sideroad north of Napanee to cut down their own Christmas trees for about 30 years. DESIGN FROM PAGE 8 If you are buying at a gallery, ask for a discount. It might sound strange, but it’s always worth it to ask for a discount — your request will likely pay off. The sticker price is not what it seems; some galleries will discount a price when they hope to develop a relationship with a first-time buyer, or to reward a loyal customer who has purchased numerous works from
As he has for about three decades, Gale Rogers is inviting families to chop down their own Christmas trees at his woodlot on Pringle’s Side Road, off Drive-In Road, north of Napanee. A portion of the sale of each tree will be donated to the Napanee Salvation Army. Rogers said the Christmas tree farm started as a family project for his own children. “After growing them for a few years, I started thinking about the long-term results, and that if we planted Christmas trees like you do a normal crop, and cut them all down, then it was no different than a corn field. You just have bare land,” he said. That in mind, he began planting other species of trees in amongst the Christmas trees. After some trialand-error, Rogers identified the species that did well — varieties like tamarack, sugar maple and red oak — and has managed the property to ensure those trees continue to thrive as part of a long-term reforestation plan.

It’s a conversation starter, so you want to make sure it’s adequately lit and secured to the wall. Certain types of art also require certain conditions, like prints that are sensitive to light.

“We have some beautiful stands of pine,” he said. “A couple of years ago, we started to thin those out. We obtained some six-inch pine lumber from trees we actually planted ourselves, so that was very gratifying.” Rogers said it has also been rewarding to see families head off into the bush together to cut their own tree. “It’s always a joy a Christmastime to see families come and obtain a tree,” he said. “We’ve got children coming now who are adults, who came as children, and now they’re coming with their children to get trees.” Rogers also regularly puts on some hot chocolate for those families at a cabin on site, a cabin he built using trees taken from the same property. Each tree costs $25. Rogers also said that he has the tools needed to chop down that perfect Christmas tree. He said that families can come and get a tree any time between 9 a.m. and sunset on Saturday and Sundays, from now right up to the last weekend before Christmas. Signs will be posted to help guide Christmas-tree hunters to the property.
before you get home. Once you’ve bought the piece, don’t throw anything away. A lot of first-time collectors toss out receipts and documentation, and that can be a huge mistake if you plan to resell it at some point. There should be a clear, traceable path from artist to owner, and it should be documented. All documents connected to a work of art should be safely filed away. Buying art can be an investment. Art can be a tangible, physical investment that can also grace your home. And if you have a good eye and a long enough holding period, you might actually make some real money.
Collecting art can be an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Make sure you understand the techniques that you can use to maximize not only the quality and value of your art, but also the personal enjoyment, appreciation and understanding of that art.

Major Atom Stars claim Raiders’ Parr bests Storm’s Young in goalies duel gold in nation’s capital New Storm recruit shines in debut, but is tough luck loser Stars shut out IceDogs in finals Beaver Sports
he Napanee Major Atom Stars won the Capital Mid Season Showdown last weekend in Ottawa. In the final game of the division, it was CasselmanEmbrun versus the Napanee battling for the title. The two teams played a similar game not allowing their opponent a lot of offensive zone time. It wasn’t till the 9:31 mark of the final stanza that the Stars were able to break the tie with a man advantage marker. Play continued with chances at both ends, but with solid defensive play lead by goaltender Ryan Aldridge, the Stars held the 1-0 lead to win the title. Their path to gold began with a 2-2 draw versus Stittsville. On Saturday the Stars thumped Pierrefonds 5 – 0, then defeated Monteuil 41. With a 2-0-1 record in round robin play, Napanee was ranked fourth to face Milton in the quarters. Milton opened the scoring early, but the Stars responded, scoring the next three to take a commanding lead into the final minutes of the third. The Winterhawks kept the contest close by getting their second of the game but the locals tightened up the defense and hold on for a 32 win. In the semis the Majors faced the Ottawa Sting, and continued strong
T
defensive play to win, and advance to the finals with a 2-0 win. Scoring for the Stars over the three day tournament were Ben Albright with five goals, three assists, Reid Lambert three goals and two assists, Zach Slaven two goals and two assists, Payton Clarke two goals and two assists, Ethan Martin two goals and four assists, Braden Bannon two goals and one assist, Mason Arthur with a goal and two assists, Logan Lalande, Jakob Dacosta and Quinton Pierce all with three assists with three assists while Tyler Brady had two helpers. Backstopping the Stars was Ryan Aldridge recording three shutouts in six games, and leading the tournament with a 0.81 goals against average. n Last week, the McCaw Mortgage Team MD 7’s played a tight game in Quinte West. Dylan Kemp had a pair, but they were down 3-2 after two periods. In the third, the Stars dominated, but did not score. With 48 seconds left, Napanee pulled their goalie for the extra attacker, and Goodfellow got a breakaway, but was not able to bury the puck nor was Kemp on the rebound leaving the final score 3-2 Quinte West. Next, they took on second seeded Peterborough with a short bench.

arely does a goalie give up four goals in his season debut, lose the game and still earn first star honours. But that’s exactly what Deseronto Storm goalie Aaron Young did on Tuesday night at the SPC, turning away 55 shots in a 4-0 loss to the Napanee Raiders. All in all not a bad start for the goalie, who just signed with the team on Monday after his CIHL team folded. “I never saw the kid (play),” said Storm head coach Rob Adams. “(Storm owner) Adam (Maracle) said we’re going to get this goalie. Then I said, well, we'll start him.” Napanee also debuted a player who made quite the first impression, as Brandon Nadeau scored just 50 seconds into the game. His goal stood as the lone tally until Keenan Murray potted a goal in the final seconds of the first. Mitch Pearce added another in the final seconds of the second and Josh Murphy scored midway through the third to account for all the scoring. “We just ran out of gas,” said Adams, noting injuries limited him to just 13 skaters for the night. “We were expecting so much from those 13 skaters, then you realize they got no gas left. It showed at the end of the periods, they would make mistakes due to fatigue.”

Adam Prudhomme-Staff
Napanee’s Zach Knapp-Hermer goes in alone against Deseronto’s Aaron Young during Tuesday’s game at the Strathcona Paper Centre. Young made the save, one of 55 he made in his debut with the team. Meanwhile if the Raiders were tired it was only from spending so much time on the attack. They fired 16, 28 and 15 shots in the three periods but still managed to light the lamp just four times. On the power-play they came away empty handed on all eight of their chances, including a fiveon-three stretch in the second. “I think we could have done a little better job creating traffic,” said Raiders head coach Mike Hartwick. “We did okay, but we could have been a bit better. But give (Young) credit, he
made a lot of good saves.” “You just got to keep shooting,” Hartwick said of solving a goalie who is standing on his head. “I think we need to be a little more prepared to shoot, especially when a goalie gets hot like that. You’ve got to be ready to one time it instead of stopping and shooting and letting him get set.” Napanee’s Cameron Parr turned in a good game in his own right, earning the shutout with 18 saves. Both teams entered Tuesday’s game looking to snap a losing streak, though one much uglier
than the other. Napanee lost a tough game on Saturday, giving up four goals in the second to lose to the home team Amherstview Jets. Murray, Zach KnappHermer, Austin Boulard and Murphy each scored for Napanee. Deseronto meanwhile is now riding a 16 game losing streak and is 1-21 overall on the season. They dropped a 9-4 game Friday at home to Campbellford and a 15-1 game in Port Hope on Saturday. Alex Crouter got the start in both games.

Bob Whitfield granted prestigious OASA Lifetime Membership Becomes first Napanee Express coach to earn the association’s most esteemed honour
BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter
Local longtime fast-pitch coach Al Whitfield was bestowed with the Ontario Amateur Softball Association’s highest honour on Saturday, earning a Lifetime Membership. So rare is the honour that only 12 people can hold the title at one time. When one member passes away, the OASA will accept nominations. Even then the honour is awarded when the committee deems somebody worthy, willing to go years between doling out the honour. To even be considered for the honour the person who nominates someone must provide let-
ter of references about the nominee from several members of their community. “I was ecstatic,” said Whitfield, who was presented with the honour during Saturday’s OASA AGM in Toronto. “It was quite a surprise, you’re kind of astounded. To think that it’s all through Ontario, it’s quite an honour. It kind of chokes you up for a moment.” Whitfield had no idea he was about to receive the award, not even clueing in when the presenter began to read snippets from his nomination form, which was written by Rick Revelle. It wasn’t until the presenter mentioned his biggest supporter, the Gal-
lagher Girl (his wife Jeanette’s maiden name), that he realized he was the recipient in question. After he accepted the award he was greeted by his kids and their spouses, who unbeknownst to him, had made the trip to Toronto to see him accept the award. While Whitfield may have been surprised to earn a Lifetime Membership, those who know him shouldn’t be. He’s logged over 50 years on the ball diamond, starting as a player before becoming an umpire and coach. Some summers he’d umpire up to 120 games a season while also coaching over 60 contests. He guided his 1989 Verona midget B team, 2004 bantam Express team
and 2006 North Fredericksburg teams to Ontario gold. At the Canadian Championship level he was at the helm in '88 when the Napanee Midgets won silver, the first national medal earned in Softball Napanee’s history. He also earned silver with the 2004 and ‘07 Express bantams at the Eastern Canadians, as well as bronze in ‘13 with the Express peewees. In 1980 he was one of the founding members of Softball Napanee. “There isn’t too much I haven’t done on the softball field,” said Whitfield. “The accomplishments don’t feel like you’re really doing anything, it’s just the love of the game. That makes it hard to walk away from it.”
And by no means is Whitfield prepared to walk away from it, saying he’s already been asked by a couple of local teams to serve as their coach. He’s yet to commit to one, but says more than likely he’ll be back when the boys and girls of summer are back again. None of this would be possible without the support of his family, particularly his wife who loves the games as much as he does. “My wife, she goes to a lot of games, she’s probably really watched more games than I ever have because I’ve always been working them in one way or another,” he added. Having coached so many different age levels,
Whitfield says he’s learned that each player requires a custom approach when being coached. More importantly, he’s noted that the lessons can go far beyond the diamond. “It builds confidence in themselves in life,” said Whitfield. “If you can instil that into the kids, that’s very important.” Already a member of the Greater Napanee Sports Wall of Fame, Whitfield is the first Express coach to earn a Lifetime Membership. Back in 2008 the OASA presented him with the Frank Feaver Memorial Trophy, which is their top annual award given to an individual who makes an outstanding contribution to softball.

STARS | Napanee’s MD 7’s thrive despite playing with a short bench CONTINUED FROM PAGE 15 The Stars showed determination with players like Tie Wood, Owen Kish, Owen Dwyer, and Sam McCaw playing at the top of their games to force the puck out of the end and pinch the boards keeping it in the offensive zone. Goaltender Aidan Difazio was also effective stopping an
impressive 20 shots. Down 2-0, Connor Birney was able to move the puck to Wood late in the period to make the final score 2-1 Peterborough. Sunday they took on Port Perry. In the second Port Perry scored, but Birney was able to even it up. Down 2-1 in the third Blake Wood was able to get the puck to Dwyer and across to Goodfellow to

tie the score at 2-2. n The Firelight Major Bantams were deserving victors last Thursday, in a 5-1 win over Kingston. Spotting their guests a goal, they roared back, starting with a power play tally by Nelson Powers off a Cam McEwen point shot. Brendan Hagerman scored the winner midway in the second, and Ryan McLay added another 30 seconds later. Kiel Benton and Hagerman rounded out the scoring. On Friday, facing first seeded Port Perry, their offense wasn’t clicking even though they had opportunities, as they fell 3-0. Saturday the boys skated past Oshawa 4-1. Powers picked up an errant pass for a goal in the first period. Michael Lloyd doubled the score with a shot on the doorstep. Powers got his second goal, taking a pass from Steven Shea, beating the lone defenseman, to score on the backhand. Cam McEwen set up Lloyd, wide open at the side of the net, for the final tally. Bai-

ley Maracle had another solid performance in net. n The Napanee Minor Bantam Stars had an upand-down weekend, beating the visiting Port Perry Predators on Friday night but falling to the visiting Pickering Panthers on Saturday night. The Stars couldn’t recover from a rocky start against Pickering. Nate Brant, converting on passes from Ethan Armstrong and Adam Burger, notched Napanee’s lone goal in the third period. The game ended 4-1. A day earlier against Port Perry, the Stars also surrendered an early goal, but managed to erase the deficit and post a lead of their own before skating to a 3-1 victory. Cal DuChene scored three goals for the home side. Josh Chadwick picked up a pair of helpers, while Josh Cudd collected an assist. Murray Craig earned the win between the pipes. n The Gray’s IDA Minor Atom A Stars played in the Silver Stick hosted by
WHEELCHAIR ACCESS
Cobourg. Friday, they faced Cobourg. Owen Maracle got the Stars on the board assisted by Daniel Chase. Ty Kemp and Ethan Sutcliffe had strong games. Solid defensive play from Gavin Brooks was not enough to help the Stars to victory after taking a number of penalties in the 3-1 loss. At noon, they faced Kanata. The team benefited from offensive chances from many players including Brody Beaubien and Jacob Woods. Jack Madden and Will Myers helped goalies Sam Richard and Holden Breault protect the defensive end. The Stars were victorious thanks to two goals from Taylor Gilmour and another from Aiden HallerBrady. Saturday night the Stars faced a tough squad from Nepean in a must win game. After giving up an early goal the Stars found the net when Carter McKee put the team on the board. Haller-Brady kept the offensive pressure as Napanee ended the second period down 2-1. Nepean netted another goal in the third, but thankfully Owen Maracle helped the Stars get it back quickly to bring them within one. Unfortunately after pulling the goalie it was Nepean that added the late goal, with a 4-2 final score eliminating Napanee. n The Napanee Chiropractic Minor Peewees also played in the Regional Silver Stick. On Friday, they faced Stouffville, who took the lead in the game 2-0 before Napanee came within a goal with Dylan Bailey scoring. Stouffville extended their lead to 3-1, but with 1:43 left, John Hearns scored for a 3-2 final. Next was a rival from the Lakeshore League, Whitby Blue. Napanee pulled ahead in the first to a 2-0 lead, with goals
scored by Bailey and Connor Brooks. In the second, Napanee got into penalty trouble, and the Wildcats capitalized on it, making the game 2-2 half way through the second. Whitby then continued to put a couple in the back of net, and Napanee was unable to answer, so the game ended 4-2. Napanee Crunch n In their last game against the Quinte West Hawks, the bantams ended up losing 5-1, with the lone goal scored by Brooks. This past weekend the Bantam Crunch Girls hit the ice on Saturday against the Toronto Leaside Wildcats. After a two week layoff, the girls had a hard fought game. They managed to work together to pull out a 1-0 win. Madelyn Marlow had the lone goal assisted by Rayanne West. Sunday the girls met the Georgina Golden Hawks. The girls played a very disciplined game and came out with a 3-1 victory. Katie Hearns had a two goal game, with assists going to Mackenzie O’Sullivan and Karley Wood-Murphy. Third goal by Carley Reid unassisted. With the two points the Crunch stay atop the league standings. n Facing Clarington Flames Saturday the girls came out flying with a busy first period. Saige Pearson netted two with assists earned by Adrianna Maclean, Lila Pringle and Nikki Weese. Also scoring was Brianna Roy with Gracie Hughes and Kristen Sutton assisting. The Flames attempted to come back in the second squeezing one past Makenna Marlow however Marlow stood strong for the remainder of the game. Sutton slid one past the Flames netminder in the third for the 4-1 win. A home win on Sunday versus the Lindsey Lynx find the girls undefeated in regular season play.

FERGUSON - In loving memory of Gwen, who passed away December 6, 2013. I thought of you with love today, But that is nothing new, I thought about you yesterday And days before that too, I think of you in silence, I often speak your name, All I have are memories And your picture in a frame, Your memory is my keepsake With which I’ll never part, God has you in His keeping, I have you in my heart. Always in my heart, missing you. Love, Gerald.

Ontario farm tire deflation technology ready to go global By Lilian Schaer (AgInnovation Ontario)
An automatic air inflation deflation system (AAID) developed by a southwestern Ontario hog farmer is ready to go global. Jake Kraayenbrink’s AgriBrink technology is ready for the market in Europe – several years after he first headed there himself in search of a solution to soil compaction problems on his farm near Moorefield, Ontario. Farmers need light, loose soil to plant crops, but the soil becomes hard – almost like cement – when heavy farm machinery passes over it. This means water can’t drain properly and plant roots are unable to get into the ground to get at the nutrients they need to grow. Kraayenbrink was a recipient of the With AgriBrink, a control box in the tractor cab Premier's Award for Agri-Food Innovation allows the user to inflate and deflate the tires to Excellence in 2011 for his innovation. match the ideal tire pressure for the weight and speed of the equipment being used. Equipment tires can be deflated in about 30 seconds once a farmer drives into a field and re-inflated when entering a road, which is much faster than other systems on the market today. This increases the footprint of a heavy piece of farm equipment, like a manure tanker, by about 60 per cent and keeps it from sinking into the ground. Overall, deflating tires lowers fuel consumption, increases crop yields by easing soil compaction, and reduces tire wear. Farmers can get into their fields earlier if their equipment is able to float over the soil more instead of sinking into wet ground. Farm equipment is easier to pull in a field when tires are deflated; this saves about 15 per cent on fuel costs, according to Kraayenbrink.

To shop, or not to shop, for a home during the holidays T H E
Thursday, December 4, 2014
The holiday season, and the weeks leading up to it, are typically characterized by gift-exchanging, entertaining and shopping. And while most consumers are focussed on gifts and food at this time of year, shopping for a home can also be rewarding. “Determined home hunters should keep an open mind when shopping for real estate,” says Costa Poulopoulos, president of the Ontario Real Estate Association. “While the supply of homes tends to decline during the winter months, there also tends to be fewer buyers which may mean less competition for anyone seriously contemplating a purchase.” Sellers are generally aware of the challenges with listing a home before the holidays, so if something does come up on the market, it may be because the owners are eager to sell, adds Poulopoulos. If you are planning to continue your home search before and during the holidays, here are a few things to bear in mind: Supply: there may be fewer homes to choose from, but of the

Availability: speak to your Realtor, mortgage broker and lawyer about their availability during the holiday season in the event that you need to move quickly on an offer and everything that follows.
homes available for sale you may have less competition to deal with when making an offer. Weather: the homes you visit may already be covered with snow which may hide exterior defects; ask to see photographs of the home taken earlier in the year and rely on a home inspector to tell you about any potential faults.

Make time: the process for buying a home and the paperwork that follows is time consuming; try to keep your other priorities organized so that you are ready to act if a home that you are interested in comes up. “If you’re eager to get ahead of the busy spring market, talk to your Realtor about looking into homes that aren’t yet listed but that are being prepped for sale,” says Poulopoulos.

H O RO S C O P E S
ARIES (Mar 21/Apr 20) Aries, expect to be called into action several times this week. You may prefer to avoid the spotlight, but that won't be the case this week. Make the most of this opportunity. TAURUS (Apr 21/May 21) Taurus, all of a sudden you are so busy it can be difficult to find a few moments to rest. Thankfully, you are able to keep up with all of the activity. GEMINI (May 22/Jun 21) Gemini, seek advice from a trusted confidante as you contemplate a major lifestyle change. This person will provide valuable insight as you look to make the best decision possible. CANCER (Jun 22/Jul 22) Cancer, going solo on a project may not seem like the ideal situation. But you don't want to be distracted this week, so going it alone is the best way to tackle the tasks at hand. LEO (Jul 23/Aug 23) Leo, following your gut may not always work out, but this week everything works out for the best. Curb impulsiveness as much as you can, though. VIRGO (Aug 24/Sept 22) Virgo, although you might be dreaming of a lavish vacation and an escape from the daily grind, it's just not possible at this time. Start saving for this dream excursion.
LIBRA (Sept 23/Oct 23) Libra, although it's noble to offer assistance to everyone you meet, you may be struggling to take care of yourself in the process. You must put your needs first. SCORPIO (Oct 24/Nov 22) A desire to detach from others and be entirely selfsufficient can have some challenges, Scorpio. You don't need to give up independence to have the support of others. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23/Dec 21) Sagittarius, your energy levels are high and there is nothing you can't accomplish this week. Avoid extra caffeine because you're already buzzing. CAPRICORN (Dec 22/Jan 20) Find a balance between caution and carelessness, Capricorn. You cannot control every situation, and this week you may have something unexpected come your way. AQUARIUS (Jan 21/Feb 18) Aquarius, if you're on the lookout for new work opportunities, look no further than your own supervisor for guidance. He or she may be your biggest ally. PISCES (Feb 19/Mar 20) You have boundless creativity, Pisces, and this week you get to channel it into a special project. Don't overextend yourself until everything gets done.
