Chamber of Commerce to focus on business development By Seth DuChene EDITOR The Napanee and District Chamber of Commerce might be involved in business, but soon they’ll no longer be in the tourism-promotion business. Greater Napanee is moving ahead with a plan to take on the NDCC’s tourism role. As of January, the town will have hired a new part-time tourism promotion position. In early 2013, the town will begin meeting with local tourism stakeholders and developing a tourism marketing plan and budget. A yearly $15,000 grant to the NDCC to cover promotion expenses, meanwhile, will be discontinued. Brad Way, president of the NDCC, said that the chamber’s decision to divest itself of its tourism component came after a strategic planning exercise completed in 2011. “It was a big responsibility, and it took away from some of the other things that the chamber should be focussing on,” he said. “Trying to be a master of all things is a challenge, so it makes a lot of sense to narrow our focus to deliver higher quality results.” He also said the NDCC “invested a lot of time and resources” in tourism promotion — likely more than the $15,000 grant from the municipality covered. Way said that the NDCC will now concentrate on business services and economic development. He also said he has “no doubt” that the municipality will be able to take on tourism-promotion duties and be successful once the transition is complete.

Man faces sexual assault charge BEAVER STAFF A local man is facing one count of sexual assault following an incident this past Monday night. According to the Napanee OPP detachment, officers there were called to respond to a domestic disturbance on Donald Street in Napanee at around 7:30 p.m. Police were told by a 22-year-old woman that the suspect, her exboyfriend, had left the residence after sexually assaulting her.
Further investigation into the incident resulted in additional charges; it is alleged that the same man had repeatedly contacted the woman via text and telephone, damaged her personal property and harassed her over the past month. OPP officers located the suspect nearby and arrested him. A 21-year-old Napanee man is facing charges of sexual assault, assault, being unlawfully in a dwelling, criminal harassment, domestic mischief and breach of probation.

The man was located, hiding, in his residence. Officers also seized what appeared to be about 67 grams of marijuana. The man was arrested and taken to L&A County General Hospital for treatment, then released. A 25-year-old Napanee man has been charged with domestic mischief and possession of a controlled substance. He was released on a promise to appear and is scheduled to attend court on Jan. 8.

Funds for this donation were raised by selling 1,000 meat-raffle tickets and by hosting a dance. Since 1992, the club has generously contributed close to $31,000 to the hospital for the purchase of medical equipment in various rooms and departments such as ophthalmology and x-Ray.

Hudak’s LCBO musings his week, Ontario Progressive Conservative Party leader Tim Hudak suggested it was time to allow beer and liquor in corner stores and supermarkets and hinted that the LCBO could be sold off if the PCs win the next election. Forgive us if we fail to get too excited, one way or the other. After all, parties of different stripes have lofted similar trial balloons on this issue in the past and, for the most part, very little has changed in how alcohol is sold in Ontario. That said, this might be different. Hudak’s Tories haven’t been shy about taking staunchly small-c conservative positions, such as the party’s proposed ‘right to work’ legislation that would deal a significant blow to unions (and brought to you by our own MPP, Randy Hillier). The Tories have also suggested the government get out of the gambling business, too. Ideology (i.e., privatization is good) might make this move a reality, no matter what. For this move to make
T
sense, however, it can’t just make sense to a conservative ideologue. It has to make sense on paper. The PCs will have to make the case that removing the Beer Store and LCBO’s monopoly on alcohol sales won’t have a detrimental effect on society, won’t have a detrimental effect on consumers, and won’t have a detrimental effect on the province’s bottom line. The fact that we haven’t moved to this kind of a system early, in spite of various flirtations with the idea, suggests that we might be better off with the system we have right now. It’s no secret that the province is facing a significant deficit, and will need to tackle it. At first blush, one might believe that axing the
LCBO, a government agency, might be a step in the right direction. However, it’s estimated that the LCBO brings $1.6 billion into the coffers at Queen’s Park. Hudak, in his LCBO musing this week, indicated he’d “bet” that revenues would increase without the LCBO in place. If Hudak’s serious about making this change, however, he’d better make sure it’s not a gamble of any kind. If the PCs want to take this step, they’d be advised to do their homework and make their case. So, we’re willing to listen, but Hudak and Co. need to flesh out their plans, and the (positive and negative) impacts of those plans. It should make for an interesting subject of debate for the next provincial election.

My wife Gwyneth and I revisited Napanee in October and were pleasantly surprised with a couple of things as we walked around. First were the explanatory plaques on some of the significant buildings, a vast improvement over those that were installed when I was a member of the committee! Congratulations to the current committee. We were also impressed with the changes at the Via station. Although we travelled via Kingston we saw the station changes in Napanee as we sped by. We stayed at Eunice Champlin’s new quarters on Thomas Street, Blanche Dubois at Elysian Fields, where Eunice treated us to a luncheon with a few of our old friends. It seems fitting that Eunice’s elegance and skillful dining experience should be located beside that wonderful Lennox and Addington County Court House. All the best to you and Jean Morrison and our friends in that great town. Tom Thompson, former Napanee resident now living in British Columbia
Farms, nature co-exist Recently, an area of land near Canada’s biggest city was granted national park status. Rouge Park – situated 50 kilometres north of Toronto – is 40 square kilometres of land that is home to a variety of land types and uses – including working farms. The Ontario Federation of Agriculture congratulates Parks Canada on its plans to protect the
Mark Wales OFA Comment
tract of land from urban development. We are also further pleased with early plans suggesting approximately 60 per cent of the land in question will be preserved as farmland for the 75 farms that operate within its borders. Much of the land in question was expropriated by the federal government and leased back to farmers several years ago. The land – like much of Ontario’s best farmland – is within sight of Lake Ontario, and the OFA fully supports the decision to allow its continued use for agricultural production.
SEE OFA, PAGE 7
Thursday, December 6, 2012
T H E
OFA FROM PAGE 6 However, a recent article in the Toronto Star included comments from a Toronto-area citizens group that questions the decision to allow farmland within the new “park” to remain in production. Members of the group – operating as “Friends of the Rouge” – suggest that by continuing to allow the farmland to remain in production, the farmers in the area will be standing in the way of the group’s desire to restore the area to “a more natural state.” The group has already planted trees on farmland that was no longer available for lease. There is a disappointing presumption that when food production takes place on large tracts of land it somehow becomes “industrial” and t is no longer environmentally sound. It is even more disappointing that the practice of growing food from the earth is somehow considered less of a “natural state” than growing trees. In the 19th century when farmers began to work land in the Rouge Valley, they began by clearing the land of trees to build homes and farms. The land has been preserved by hardworking farm families ever since, often passed down from one generation to the next, always with careful consideration to the way everyday operating practices affect the long-term health and sustainability of the land. Farmers are proud stewards of the land, and we work hard to preserve our most precious resource: good quality soil that has the stored nutrients to grow healthy, safe, sustainable food. The OFA has recently compiled a submission to the Standing Committee on General Government, calling for protection of our agricultural land and soil to take precedence over all other uses. Prime farmland is a non-renewable resource, and preserving that land for farming, above all else, is paramount to the sustainability of agriculture in Ontario. Mark Wales is the president of the OFA.

The warmth of Tuscan interiors ith this past week’s large lottery jackpots here in Canada (which I didn’t win) and the unimaginable jackpot in the U.S., I got thinking about where in the world I’d like to travel if I had the chance. My mind has drifted to being in breathtaking Italy. I have always dreamed of visiting Italy with its stunning architecture and design, magnificent landscapes and mouth-watering food and wine. Tuscany is one of the largest regions in Italy, with many types of interiors ranging from the splendid palazzo or castles, to the sober interiors of stone farmhouses on the rolling countryside. Like the name suggests, Tuscan interiors is a style that originated from Tuscany and uses warm colour tones and has immensely rustic appeal. The concept employs simple designs using woods, limestone, clay, straw and cane. Colour schemes range from shades of white that reflects sunlight, the blues signifying the sky, deep reds, bright oranges and sunny yellow and soft greens that reflect the beautiful rolling meadows. Nature’s amenities were used as valuable aspiratory sources and elements like stone, wood and iron became trademarks for this decorating palette. One of the many reasons for choosing this style over others is that the interior spaces are extremely welcoming and cozy being bathed in natural sunlight and heat throughout the entire day. A rustic simplicity draws a familiar touch, combining comfortable pieces of furniture with natural colours and design elements. Stone is used widely in Tuscan interiors as the medieval houses and farm houses dotting along the Tuscan landscape were
W
all built of stone. Tuscans have a great respect for the past, and do not consider that all that is old should be discarded. Instead, they cherish the vestiges of the past. Many homes you will find an interior stone wall left to be seen. The walls when needed are repaired and are regarded as an important testimony to the efforts of past generations to build their futures with hard work and with faith in the benevolent forces of nature. There are stone walls in houses that date back 200 years and that are retained as a central focus in home decorating solutions. In many of the medieval homes, some of the older parts of the building were covered with plaster to meet a misconceived idea of “modernism.” Now the trend is to uncover the old parts. You can now find splendid old brick arches or window frames emerging from plaster walls. Although not all homes have the fortunate design of having vestiges of the distant past, you can still incorporate the use of stone around a fireplace or walls in living or bedrooms, or in a country kitchen. Texture is an important aspect of Tuscan interior design. The appearance of many layers of paint, cracked stucco or marble walls and worn furniture are used to add an Old World charm to the room. Wood grain and tex-
ture are highlighted, as well as any cracks or crevices. Irregularity is used to add interest and warmth. Ceramic tile and clay tile is widely used as flooring in Tuscan design. They evoke the past, and are available in a wide range of natural tones, ranging from the dusty brown to leather-like red hues. There are also tiles with antique finish and tiles that have the chips and irregularities caused by time. Furniture used in Tuscanstyle interiors draws heavily on the past. This doesn’t mean you have to have a home filled with antiques. Rather, use furniture that has been constructed using criteria of the past, although a few period pieces are always well presented. Tuscany furniture inspired by tradition continues to be manufactured by presentday artisans who take pride in replicating the styles of the past. The woods are normally oak, chestnut, or cherry, and they are usually characterized by a dull wax finish. You will see natural coloured pieces that have darkened over time and usage. Black wrought iron is usually found in every room in Tuscan-inspired homes. Iron scrolled plate racks may be found on kitchen and dining room walls. Large, elaboratelycarved black wrought iron light fixtures may hang above dining

Design Time
tables as well as in bedrooms. Many of these lighting designs feature many light that look like candles and each light often has a tiny cloth lampshade covering the top. When remodeling kitchens, take into account that a genuine Tuscan cooking area is all about food, wine, and natural elements. Therefore, place a long wooden table, cabinets and shelves for wine bottles, glass jars filled with pasta and olives and don’t forget flower vases. Emphasize the rustic atmosphere with fruit hampers, garlic and pepper ropes, and add colour with majolica dishes. The use of natural colours is a feature in Tuscan decorating schemes. All of the colours used evoke images of the harmony of the home in relation to nature. Starting with the colours used for the walls, these are normally a stark white that make a wonderful contracting background to the other rich woods of the furniture or to the stone accents. Other colours that are often used in more sophisticated decorating solutions are tones of burnished orange or light terra cotta. These colours recall the earth of the Tuscan hills and they compliment the rich tones of wood. Designing your home in the Tuscan style is both challenging and entertaining. If you remember the basic rule of bringing nature into your home by using stone, wood, water and specific colours, the result will be an authentic warm and peaceful Tuscan design for your home.

Barred owls descend on Quinte area Not so many years ago, a bunch of us kayakers got together and we did something which, at the time, we thought was kinda crazy. We paddled all the way on the Rideau Canal from Kingston to Ottawa, a distance of 202 kilometres. It took us 10 days as this was a pleasure trip and we wanted to take our time and explore along the way. We may have considered ourselves pioneers at the time, but hundreds of kayakers and canoeists have done it since. Jones Falls, the famous Kilborn’s Store in Newboro, Merrickville, the Canadian Shield, the loons, the ospreys and the camaraderie along the way – all were special experiences. What stands out in my mind though about the trip was the canoe-in campground at Murphy’s Point Provincial Park, and the barred owls that kept me joyously awake much of the night. Their dog like barking echoed across the waters of Big Rideau Lake, all delivered in different pitches and at different tempos, as though they were in conversation with each other with their forceful, rhythmic series of “Who cooks for you, who cooks for you all-l-l-l?” . Doubtless they were communicating. We almost hated to leave the next morning, but we had to keep moving in our quest for new adventures. If you have been seeing or hearing barred owls this past month, you are not alone. Others have been hearing them too. They seem to be everywhere.
It only has been in the last few years when these cinerousbrown owls have been showing up in larger than normal numbers. One year, it coincided with an incursion of great gray owls from the north and it was believed surplus numbers of barred owls were sort of caught up in the migration of great grays. There is not much to support this theory since there are no great gray owls this fall, at least, not here anyway. One had been seen in Algonquin Park, but that seems to be it. The commonly believed reason for their abundance in the fall is more than likely due to a better than usual breeding year with surplus birds being forced out of their breeding area, and wandering from breeding territories elsewhere as they search for more prolific feeding areas. Some who see barred owls for the first time will often believe they have seen a great gray owl as, superficially, there are some similarities. Both have rather prominent facial discs. Neither have the ornamental “ear tufts” that great horned owls do, and from a distance, the barred owl is large enough to approximate the larger great gray owl. However, a closer look will reveal some obvious differences. The area of the breast and throat of the barred owl is barred horizontally, but vertically on the belly, with a clear demarcation between the horizontal and vertical barring. And check out the jet black eyes
Terry Sprague
Outdoor Rambles of the barred owl as compared to the yellow eyes of most other owl species. One of the observed behaviors of the barred owl is the bobbing of its head while watching its prey. The bobbing motion is a vertical movement of the owl’s head in an up and down manner, which aids it in determining the distance of the prey. Barred owls are not new to this area. Pleistocene fossils of barred owls, at least 11,000 years old, have been dug up in Ontario. So, they have been around for a few years. Whether or not you have seen them on your property during the nesting season depends largely on your habitat. Barred Owls live in large, mature forests made up of both deciduous trees and conifers, often near water; hence, the reason for their abundance at Murphy’s Point
Provincial Park when we camped there on the Rideau Canal. Unlike our more common great horned owl that nests in the branches of trees, the barred owl is a cavity nester, provided there is a natural tree cavity large enough to accommodate it. Many land owners who have barred owls on their properties have had some success in erecting nest boxes. If interested in building one, don’t skimp on the entrance; they’re a large bird and their entrance must be at least seven inches in diameter. I’m afraid that I don’t belong to that elite group of birders who are able to do a flawless imitation of a calling barred owl. However, I have been with those who can, and some are almost as entertaining to watch as they are to listen to, as they pump their head vigorously back and forth in the manner of a barnyard chicken! Duplicating the fluid, rolling throaty sound is not easy. Recordings also work well as I found out one evening at a camp-
site when I attracted not one, but two barred owls. They were determined to believe that I was an intruder on their turf, as they perched on a limb immediately above me and gave me what-for. One of my fondest experiences was at Bon Echo Provincial Park in the 1980s when a Park Naturalist took us on a night hike. Flashlights were not permitted and the only thing visible was the faint outline of anyone wearing a light coloured shirt. What a treat when an invisible barred owl landed somewhere above us and responded to the skilled imitations of the Park Naturalist. Experiences like that with barred owls are always special.

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 70 Years Ago December 9, 1942 n Ruth’s Sandwich Bar at the top of Roblin Hill on the eastern edge of Napanee was destroyed by fire. Fire officials weren’t sure how the fire started. It began in the middle of a fierce wind- and snowstorm, however, and soon after it started, the structure was completely destroyed. The total loss was estimated to be about $1,500, none of which was covered by insurance. An electric refrigerator and some mechanics’ tools were destroyed in the blaze. n The federal government was taking steps to ensure that the cost of living would not increase too swiftly. Finance Minister J.L. Ilsley said that the government intended to curb the rising cost of household basics like milk, oranges, tea and coffee. He also said that the government would reduce the profit margin on beef taken by some retailers. The prices of some of those commonly-purchased items would be reduced. In the case of coffee, the price would go down four cents a pound; in the case of tea, the reduction would be 10 cents a pound. Oranges, meanwhile, would be reduced to their 1941 price level.
35 Years Ago December 7, 1977 n Only 10 of about 100 hogs were saved from a destructive barn fire near Enterprise. The farm’s owner, Robert Battagello, was in Toronto delivering some firewood at the time of the fire. His wife noticed smoke billowing from the barn in the late-morning hours. A hired hand, who had been splitting wood, broke the lock off the barn and saved as many animals as he could. Mrs. Battagello had to be restrained to prevent her from entering the barn to save the pigs. Fire officials had yet to determine the cause. n Napanee town council voted to approve the formation of a committee to explore the possibility of annexation of lands surrounding the municipality. Council also elected to consult with a lawyer who specializes in municipal annexations before moving forward. Napanee Deputy-Reeve Graham Strong, who made the motion, indicated that annexation needed to happen. “As a starting point, we have to agree something has to be done.”

Habitat for Humanity hands over new house By Seth DuChene EDITOR Lennox and Addington’s first Habitat for Humanity build was a special accomplishment — particularly for the Lortie family. Mike and Aileen Lortie, along with their children Tanner and Kelsey, were given the keys to their new home in Bath in a dedication ceremony on Thursday. The handover of keys represented the culmination of seven months of work on the home, co-ordinated by Habitat for Humanity with the support of the surrounding community. John Alkenbrack, the Chief Executive Officer of Habitat for Humanity’s Greater Kingston and Frontenac chapter, said the list of sponsors for this particular build was twice as long as earlier builds coordinated by the Kingston office. Alkenbrack and Habitat for Humanity Kingston chairperson Ron Darling suggested that there were a couple of factors as to why this build saw this level of support. First is the fact that word about Habitat for Humanity is getting out, said Alkenbrack. “The community is becoming more aware of the Habitat program,” he said. The other factor was the family, said Darling. Because Mike Lortie suffers from Multiple Sclerosis, accessibility was a major issue at their old rental home. “This is a family that was in a two-story home… and here they are now owning their own home.” Aileen Lortie said that the new home was a “dream come true” for the family. Unlike their old home, everything Mike needs will be on one floor.

Kingston Habitat for Humanity board of directors chair Ron Darling (right) hands the keys to a new home to Mike Lortie while (from left) children Kelsey Graham, Tanner Graham and wife Aileen Lortie look on. “Where we (were), it is 14 steps just to get to the bathroom,” she explained. A new ramp will be added to the back of the home to allow Mike easy access from the outside. “It’s a remarkable place, and it’s only going to benefit us,” he said shortly before receiving the keys to the house. The Lortie family will occupy one half of the duplex, which is located on Sir John Johnson Drive, east of the village of Bath. The other half of the building will be completed in the next few weeks, and anoth-
er family will move in. Alkenbrack and Darling said that the Bath build had a few other important spinoffs. Corrections Canada and St. Lawrence College teamed up with Habitat for Humanity to allow CorCan inmates to work at the site as part of a pilot project. Because the pilot was so successful, CorCan announced recently that it has entered into a partnership with Habitat for Humanity to allow for CorCan involvement in builds across the country. Through the Habitat
for Humanity program, homes are sold at no profit to families in need through long-term, no-interest mortgages. Families that qualify for a Habitat for Humanity home must contribute their own labour toward the project. Various community contributions toward the project keep it affordable. Revenue generated from mortgage payments, meanwhile, are used to help fund additional local builds. In October, Governor General of Canada David Johnston visited the Bath build site.

Ambulance service gets southern boost in L&A County opens new base near Amherstview to improve emergency response times By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER STAFF WRITER ESIDENTS of Loyalist were granted some peace of mind last Wednesday, as the County of Lennox and Addington officially opened an ambulance base at 101 William Henderson Dr. in Amherstview. Though the ribbon cutting and ceremony was last week, the station has been in operation since September. Prior to setting up shop in Amherstview, the closest base was in Napanee. “The County of Lennox and Addington assumed responsibility for land ambulance service on Jan. 1, 2001, as part of the transfer of services from the province to municipalities,” said County warden and Loyalist mayor Bill Lowry. “For county council and staff it was quickly evident that the necessary changes would have to be approached with great forethought and would require the application of additional resources which were not readily available.” Since 2001 the county has opened four bases, one in Napanee, one in Denbigh, one in Northbrook and now Loyalist. Both
R
Napanee and Northbrook operate around the clock while Denbigh, formerly a 24/7 base, will now operate 12 hours a day, as will Loyalist, both operating from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.
‘The ready availability of ambulance service is of critical importance to our residents.’
Bill Lowry, L&A County Warden
By splitting Denbigh to a half day, they were able to apply those operating costs to Loyalist. Aside from equipping an ambulance at a cost of $65,000, Chief of Emergency Services Mark Schjerning says most other operating costs will be offset by reducing Denbigh’s hours. Staff is now able to split time between the two bases, meaning no new hirings were necessary. All told L&A Emergency Medical Services employs 65 full-time and part-time primary care paramedics. “The ready availability
of ambulance service is of critical importance to our residents and I am grateful that the county could initiate an ambulance base for this area,” added Lowry. “Over time I hope to build upon this essential first step be eventually expanding hours and levels of service.” Lowry says the council lucked out in its search for an ideal location, finding an already-built structure that only needed minor renovations to work as a base. “Strategically located at the crossroads of two important arterial roads, County Rd. 6 and TaylorKidd Boulevard and in close proximity to Hwy. 33. County staff believed that the site was ideal as a start location for an ambulance service base to serve south eastern Lennox and Addington.” The base is located in a plaza that includes an L&A Seniors Outreach Services, Remax reality and Colborne TV. The country leases the building from Roger and Keith Colborne, who did the renovations to make it operational as an ambulance base. Since its opening on Sept. 1 the base has been busy, responding to 182 calls between Sept. 1 and Nov. 25.

‘Favourable conditions’ for meteor shower By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER STAFF WRITER
L&A’s dark skies provide ideal backdrop for yearly Geminids visit
see at least one good one.� Dickinson compares the coming meteor shower to that of the popular Perseids, which appears in the night sky every August like clockwork. Because the Geminids occur when the temperature drops in December, few are willing to brave the outdoors to look for them. Despite its lack of popularity, Dickinson says the Geminids offer just as awe-inspiring a show. As for calling them shooting stars, Dickinson says that’s not technically accurate. “In most cases meteors come from burned out comets,� he said. “Comets
are chunks of ice and dirt, they’re conglomerates of materials left over from the formation of the planets. Over time as the comets come around in their orbit, the sun melts the ice and leaves the dirt so that the orbit the comet had in the past is now the orbit of these particles. We can tell that the meteors are going to occur on a specific night because that’s the date we know the Earth runs through the orbit of the old comet.� The viewing of the Geminids is one of several events L&A County is hoping will
draw in stargazers from across the province. Because of its location and lack of light pollution, L&A County boasts much darker skies than much of North America. They’re hoping to capitalize on that even further this coming spring, as Dickinson has offered to host a series of hands on work
shops at the area. This coming May he plans to bring his telescope and offer viewings of Saturn. L&A’s Dark Sky Viewing Area, which is free to the public, will remain open year round and the parking lot will be kept clear of snow in the winter. It’s located near the Sheffield Conservation Area.

added Dickinson. At the start of the night the ‘shooting stars’ will be seen streaking across one quadrant of the sky to the other. As the night wears on to about 10 p.m. the number of meteors will be at its highest. “They appear to emerge out of the constellation Gemini, which is where the name comes from,� said Dickinson. “But that’s just where they start from. They can head in any direction after that.� Because the meteors’ courses are unpredictable, Dickinson recommends just bringing a reclining lawn chair and a blanket. Looking through binoculars would reduce the ability to see the entire sky. The Dark Sky Viewing Area also contains a slab of concrete,which is ideal for setting up camera tripods and taking photos with long exposures. Dickinson says he will likely be out at the Dark Sky Viewing Area with his camera that night, provided the skies are clear. “To me its just nice to know you can go on a specific night and be pretty well guaranteed that you’re going to see a couple,� said Dickinson. “This is a night with enough meteors and if you go to the Dark Sky Area, even if you’re just standing there for 10 or 15 minutes, you’re very likely to

ARTH will be treated to a dazzling cosmic display next Thursday, and Lennox and Addington County will have the best seat in eastern Ontario to see it. The annual meteor shower known as the Geminids will reach its peak that night and L&A’s Dark Sky Viewing Area will serve as the perfect theatre. Officially opened this past August, the open space just north of Erinsville on County Road 41 provides an ideal stargazing spot, free of ambient light and buildings. This will mark the first time the Geminids pass through since the viewing area was opened to the public. “Last year it was not favourable,� local astronomer and editor of SkyNews magazine Terrence Dickinson said of the Geminids. “There was a full moon around the same time and that tends to block out most of the meteors. This year it is favourable.� If conditions are clear, star gazers could see 30 to 50 streaks of light across the sky every hour — all without binoculars or a telescope. “Those are just averages if you’re in a nice, dark location like the Dark Sky Viewing Area, which is as good as you can get around here,�

KidSport program running short on cash Applicants for funding being turned away By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER STAFF WRITER
Adam Prudhomme-Staff
Macpherson House Director Karen Price, dressed in period costume, conducted a Christmas ornament making workshop at the house on Saturday, using only materials available in the early 1800s. The Pioneer Christmas Traditions was a hit with participating children, as they made owls out of pine cones and toured the museum. This coming Saturday the house will be illuminated only by candles for the annual Candlelight Tour.
Find
hasn’t been enough this year. Greater Napanee’s chapter helped 47 applicants this fall and had to turn away several more due to lack of funds. According to KidSport, an average of one in three families can’t afford to register their children in sports. Between registration fees and the cost of equipment, many families are opting to forgo organized sports. That’s part of the reason only seven per cent of Canadian youths are getting the recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity. Without it, they are at risk of obesity and health problems down the road. “Give the Gift of Sport is a great opportunity for people to support their community and ensure financial circumstances are not a barrier to children that want to play sports,� Dawn MacDonald, partnership lead for KidSport Canada said in a release. “It’s such a positive gift for a really great cause.� As the need continues to grow, Hallam wants to get the word out and just remind the community what they’re all about. “I’m just hoping that groups and organizations, when they look for things to donate to, to maybe think about this,� said Hallam. “Especially during the Christmas season, if you want to support a great cause, we could use the funds to keep the kids involved and keep them active.� For more information on the local branch, e-mail vhallam@greaternapanee.com. KidSport provides financial assistance to kids 18 and under whose parents are unable to cover the costs associated with amateur sports. Since its creation, it has helped more 1.5 million athletes.
As some kids dream of a new pair of skates, ball glove or cleats this Christmas, there’s a growing number who just wish the they could cover the registration costs to play. The local chapter of KidSport, a charity that gives financially strapped families a chance to get their kids in the game, did its best to make those dreams come true, but had their budget stretched this year — so much so that they’re in desperate need of community support to continue their cause. “The program has been going very strong this year,� said Vicki Hallam, chair of the Greater Napanee KidSport/Jumpstart program. “We’ve had a lot of applicants come in. We’ve given out over $10,000 in KidSport money and Jumpstart money for registration and equipment. I need to get more dollars before I can hand out any more money.� In an effort to help more kids in the new year, KidSport Canada has launched a national ‘Give the Gift of Sport’ campaign. Started this past Monday and running through Jan. 15, people can visit www.kidsport.ca and make an online donation. They can choose any local chapter and specify which sport they’d like to support. “An applicant, when they apply, can apply for up to $250 per person,� said Hallam. “It depletes our bank account pretty quickly at that.� Hallam says the program is supported through provincial funding at Canadian Tire’s Jumpstart program, but even that

Newburgh Christmas Concert back for No. 33 Popular annual community event a major benefit for local children during holiday season By Seth DuChene EDITOR Nearly every year for the past 33 years, Newburgh Community Christmas Concert director Mary Anne Wood says she has wondered if she and her cast might just run out of ideas for the next show. And this year, just like every other year, she found that she had nothing to worry about. “I had to cut a few things,” she remarked shortly before she and the cast began rehearsals at Newburgh Public School on Tuesday night. The concert — which has proven to be wildly popular over the past three decades — is back on again for two shows on Dec. 15, at 3 p.m. and at 7 p.m. at Newburgh Public School. The show is free to attend, though a freewill offering is being taken with all proceeds going to help purchase Christmas presents for children in need in the area. Wood says that, while she has mused about ending the show in past years, it’s showing no signs of stopping. She says the main reason for the drive
to continue comes from the new generations of cast members coming on the scene to push it forward. In fact, this year will feature two sets of three family generations in the cast for the first time ever. If the show has been a hit with audiences over the years, it’s just as popular with the cast and crew. A couple of former cast members who had to take a few years off because of work even made sure to find the time to return to the show this year. Renee Busschaert had to take a break to accommodate her career as a police officer, while Jason Anaral bowed out to serve overseas in the Canadian Armed Forces. “We said we had to make a point of being in it,” said Anaral. Audiences have always had fun at the show, but is it just as enjoyable for the cast? “It’s even more fun,” replied Busschaert. “It’s the camaraderie and the jokes that go on behind the scene.” Both said they had no problem fitting back in either, saying that the cast welcomed them with open arms. Wood says that, as usual, she and the cast

The cast of the Newburgh Community Christmas Concert rehearse one of the segments of this year’s show, which takes place on Dec. 15. There will be two shows, one at 3 p.m. and one at 7 p.m. have come up with all new material for this year’s show, drawing on all sorts of ideas including current events and trends to keep the show fresh. At the same time, however, Wood says the audience can count on some of those
favourite characters and situations to show up on stage. Over the years, Wood says that audiences have been “amazingly generous” in offering donations at the door, adding that the show has consistently exceeded
its fundraising target each year. Last year, the two shows generated $10,000 in donations. That money is then used to buy presents for between 125 and 150 children in the area. Wood says she’ll be given a list of chil-
dren’s genders and ages by Family and Children’s Services for Frontenac and Lennox and Addington; then, the day after the show, she and the crew will go to Wal-Mart in Kingston to buy presents for those kids on the list.
Artists wanted at old Lenadco BEAVER STAFF OCAL artists looking for a new venue at which to show their work have some space reserved for them. Local developer Theo Nibourg and his daughter, interior designer and Napanee Beaver columnist Merola Tahamtan, are offering up wallspace at Nibourg’s building on Bridge Street West in Napanee, the former Lenadco facility. “We have the empty walls, and we want to fill them,” said Nibourg. In return, artists will get public exposure and a chance to sell their work. “There are a lot of people coming through this building,” said Nibourg, adding that once a new, nearlyready café opens and other tenants move in, that traffic will only increase.

Merola Tahamtan and Theo Nibourg say they’ve got a great venue for local artists to show their work. Tahamtan said that wall-hanging materials will be provided, as will anti-theft measures to
ensure none of the work is stolen. They say that they shouldn’t have any trouble finding participants. “There are a lot of really
good artists in the area,” Nibourg said. Those interested should contact Tahamtan at 613561-0244 or merolatahamtandesigns@live.ca. • Interior Design • Home Staging • Window Treatments • Organization • Painting • Colour Consultations

Raiders’ Blade slices through Deseronto Storm Rookie forward scores in fourth straight game on Tuesday as Napanee routs Deseronto 8-2 By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER SPORTS Blade Grigg continued his torrid pace with the Napanee Raiders Tuesday night, scoring the first goal of the game and igniting his team’s 8-2 win over the visiting Deseronto Storm. With that goal he now has four snipes and two assists since joining the team on Nov. 20, a span of five games. “Thisy (Ryan Thistlethwaite) was behind the net and I just came out in front,” Grigg said of the game's opening goal. “He dished it right to me and I just tucked it in five-hole. He made it pretty easy for me out there.” His goal at the 5:56 mark of the first busted open the floodgates for Napanee. Luke Emmons and Jesse Lloyd each added one more in the frame and the rout was underway. Donny Emmons continued the attack in the second, scoring off the opening draw just 30 seconds into the period. Deseronto’s Brett Bateman spoiled Kyle Copeland’s chance of a shutout at the 6:19 mark,
Adam Prudhomme - Staff
Napanee’s Luke Emmons speeds into Deseronto territory and tries to deke defenceman Brandon Torres. but it was too little, too late. Thistlethwaite negated the goal with one of his own just seconds later and Bud Norris added an extra one on the power-play for good measure. Copeland would settle for the win on 27 saves. Zach Knapp-Hermer and Donny Emmons accounted for one more each in the third, putting the game even farther out of reach. Deseronto’s Jordan Cannons cut the lead
to 8-2 late in the frame, but it was already well decided. Grigg, who has played with the Kingston Canadians in the past but wasn’t playing competitively prior to joining Napanee, has been just what the sputtering Raider offense needed. “Great guys,” Grigg said of his teammates. “This is a great, spirited bunch. Everyone likes each other and we’re flowing. We were off to a bit of a rough
start. I was glad they invited me out. I’ve been trying to fit in and they’ve made it pretty easy.” The win gave Napanee two straight, something they haven’t done since Oct. 12 and 16. It also gave them the rubber match of a mini three game set they’ve played with the Storm, facing them in three straight home games. Deseronto took the first with a 3-2 win on Nov. 20 while Napanee bounced
back with an 8-3 win Nov. 27 and 8-2 on Tuesday. “It’s been a good change so far to have two in a row,” said Raiders head coach Scott Slack. “They needed the positive reassurance. They’re starting to score some goals. Zach KnappHermer was in a bit of a slump and he finally broke out of it tonight. He’s been patient and he’s worked hard.” Not even 16 until later this month, the rookie forward now has six goals and 11 assists in 22 games. Prior to the game the Raiders welcomed back local product Adam Shulist, who had left the team in training camp for a job in Edmonton. Now back in his home town, he was a welcome addition to the starting line up. “He came right off the 401,” Slack said of Shulist. “He texted me in Sudbury at 12:02 p.m. and said he’d be at practice. He came off the 401 and he didn’t miss a beat. He played a great game tonight.” Prior to departing in August, he was in the running to be the team’s captain. In 21 games last year he had four goals and four assists while providing leadership in the dressing
room. Napanee improves to 714-1 with the win and now trails Amherstview by 12 points (27-15) for the final playoff spot. Campbellford is third at 14-5-1 and 29 points. Picton leads Port Hope by just one point (3231) for the top spot. Deseronto meanwhile falls to 2-22. Prior to their loss to Napanee they dropped 7-2 and 8-1 decisions to Port Hope in a home and away series this weekend. They’ll be in tough to snap their six game losing streak tomorrow as they host Picton for an 8:30 p.m. puck drop at the Deseronto Community Rec Centre. Napanee meanwhile travels to Campbellford tomorrow night before returning home Tuesday to host the Amherstview Jets for the annual teddy bear toss game. Fans are encouraged to bring stuffed toys to the game and chuck them onto the ice when Napanee scores their first goal. The toys will then be donated to charity. Puck drop is at 7:30 p.m. For his sizzling start to his Raider career, Grigg is the Ontario Milk Marketing Board Raider of the week.
NDSS Hawks golfers commit to Division 1 schools Both granted scholarships By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER SPORTS NDSS Golden Hawk golfers Josh Whalen and Austin James will be headed to NCAA Division I schools in the U.S. next fall, officially signing their national letters of intent last week. Whalen, who lives in Napanee, agreed to Ohio’s Kent State while Bath’s James signed with South Carolina’s Charleston Southern University. According to James, they are two of only five Grade 12 students from Ontario who were granted golf scholarships to major U.S. universities. “We had a good team, especially when we were younger,” James said of the NDSS program, which they both took part in since they were in Grade 8. “We had good role models to look up
to, my sister (Augusta James, who is currently in her second year with North Carolina State) played on the guys’ team. In Grade 10 we went to OFSAA as a team. We always had good coaches. Not many high school students in this area do practices.” During their tenure with the team they travelled to South Carolina to take part in the Palmetto High School Championship, which is considered North America’s largest high school golf tournament. NDSS is one of a handful of Canadian schools to ever enter the tournament, and plans to do so again this spring. Both players credited their coaches, Mike Hartwick and Geoff James, for helping them get this far. The Hawks’ home course, the Loyalist Golf and Country Club, also played a role, offering them a challenging 18 holes for them to hone their skills. Whalen, who lists his individual home course as the
Napanee Golf and Country Club, has also spent countless hours there as well. “Division I seemed like a stretch,” Whalen said of his goal back as a Grade 8 student. “But Austin and myself kept making steps and kept making strides as we went through junior golf, making bigger tournaments and having some nice finishes.” Being the same age and playing on the same team, they were able to push each other as well. Because both have had success both at the high school and amateur level, they had some choices when it came to picking their 2013 school. “They’ve had a good program for a number of years,” Whalen said of selecting Kent. “Their coach (Herb Page) is a tough coach to play for from what I hear, but he’s always there to make you make the team better. He’s been there for 35 years, so it’s nice to know there's some stability. Also he’s

NDSS golfers Josh Whalen (left) and Austin James signed their letters of intent last week, as coach Mike Hartwick looked on. had a number of Canadians come and go and when I get there. there will be two Canadians down there (Listowel’s Corey Conners and Richmond Hill’s Taylor Pendrith), they’re two of Canada’s two best amateurs.” For James, it came down to sunny weather and a great home course.
“I like the facilities at Charleston a lot,” he said. “They’ve got a great facility and a section just for the golf team that’s not for the public. I like the climate in South Carolina, you get to play all year round. That’ll be a nice perk. They also play a really good schedule on some really nice golf courses.”
As for their future plans, both say they’re just focused on finishing high school and haven’t looked beyond their four years at university. While both admit it would be a dream to go professional on the Canadian Tour, they both know there’s a lot of work to put in before that can happen.

League races heating up at the NDCC Tight contests in all divisions By Sandy Eastlake ON THE BUTTON he curling season is headed into the final month of curling prior to the Christmas break. NDCC league directors are now sending around sign up sheets for those curling in the second draw which starts Wednesday, Jan. 2, 2013. If curlers wish to curl in a league and are not already in, they can call the league coordinator as soon as possible to ensure a position. All curlers are curling their little hearts out to get their name on the trophy. Here are some standings for you as of this past Sunday. Monday men has Robert Dickson closely followed by Ian Munro in A; Ray Snider trailed by Brian Chadwick in B; and Ken Healy leading with Darrell Scott closely behind. Tuesday Up&At’Em as usual has five-six teams very close with Stan Yallup and Bill Ryan ahead right now. Andy Palmer with Robert Hough are leading in the Tuesday Mixed while the Wednesday Seniors show Joe Jackemeck and Frank Dunham neck to neck and the Thursday Mens has Paul Dickson ahead by a margin from Daryl Latimer. Wednesday Ladies have Marcia Difazio and Sheryl French tied while Thursday Ladies has Jane Hough in the lead followed by Sandi McNamee. Last but definitely not least is the every popular 22 team Friday Mixed who has five teams all tied right
T
now - Jane Pearson, Darrell Scott, Gayle Johnson, Doug Pennell and Linda Blake. If these teams all continue winning games and stay neck to neck poor Cindy will have a hard time calculating the winners. The semi annual General Meeting held last Sunday, thanks to 16 avid members dropping what they were doing to attend, some planned and some last minute (literally) gave us a quorum so the meeting did not have to be adjourned. NDCC' s Board of Directors were then able to get some very important financial items passed thus allowing us to continue with the day to day operation of the club. There is a new web site for curling information whether a game, instruction, interviews etc - go to www.curl.ca/curlingtv . They have done a terrific job designing this and apparently coverage of the Season of Champions event is available for viewing within 48 hours of the live broadcast as will the other events as they are played. The instructional videos are very informative too and cover a wide spectrum of all curling aspects. As most are aware, the 2012 Scott Tournament of Hearts is being held in Kingston Feb. 16 to 24; tickets are on sale now and include a wide variety of packages to chose from. As a member of the Greater Kingston Area Curling Association, NDCC members are being given a special promotion offer to do some fundraising for the club. There is absolutely no obligation but if members are getting them, please get them through the club representative – Sandy Eastlake 613-354-7138.

Napanee Minor Hockey Report
Peewee Stars edged by Whitby in S.S. finals
BEAVER STAFF apanee Grant’s Insurance Minor Peewee A squad rode their offense to a silver finish at Cobourg’s Silver Stick tournament this weekend. They blew by Mississippi Thunder Kings 8-1 on Friday, defeated Whitby White 4-1 on Saturday, and romped over RWC Crusaders 9-2 to reach the finals with Whitby Blue. Both teams battled hard, but Whitby prevailed 3-1. Their next games are a home-and-home with Whitby White, with a Saturday game at the SPC at 6 pm. n The Napanee Giant Tiger Bantam A team reached the semifinals of the Midland Regional Silver Stick Tournament with a win and two ties in round robin play. They continue to play strong defensive hockey with a low goalsagainst average. A 2-2 tie with Collingwood, a 2-0 win over New Hamburg, and a tie with Barrie put them into the semis against Cobourg. Another defensive struggle, one goal separated them from a chance to play for gold, as they were edged 2-1. n The Novice A Stars faced a tough loss in the opener of their Silver Stick tournament in Cobourg. The Stars came out strong against their rivals, the Port Hope Phantoms, but lost the battle 5-4. Scoring goals for the stars were Zach Slaven (two), Cal Uens and Quinton Pierce with one a piece. Assisting the goals were Slaven, Uens, Ben Albright and Pierce. On Saturday the Stars faced Rideau-St. Lawrence and were defeated 6-3. The Stars ended their tournament with a big win over Ajax Knights beating them with a score of 7-3. Goal scorers were Uens (three), Ethan Martin (two), Pierce, Owen Gibson and Cole Campbell with one each. Assists in
N
this game went to Gibson, Luke Hannah, Martin, Albright, Slaven, Campbell and Jakob DaCosta. Their next game is a home match with Whitby Blue Saturday at 3:30 p.m. n The Napanee North Key Minor Atoms, also in the Cobourg Silver Stick, had narrow 2-1 losses to Orillia and Cobourg, as well as falling 4-0 to a solid Quinte West team. n It was a successful week for the Novice AE stars with the team earning two shutouts. Tuesday they played the PEC Kings and won 4-0. Goal scorers were Aiden Haller-Brady, Danson Wales, Carter McKee, and Gavin Brooks. Assists went to Dawson, Will Myers and Brody Beaubien. On Sunday the Stars faced the Oshawa Jr Generals and walked away with a 5-0 win. Goal scorers were Spencer Cranley (two), Wales, Beaubien and Brooks. Assists went to Dawson (two), Ben Buxton, Carter McKee and HallerBrady. Nathaniel Cinnamon and Jacob Brown shared the net-minding duties. They play Port Hope Tuesday at 6 p.m. prior to the Raiders game. n The Napanee Boyd Electric Major Peewees faced a tough schedule last week, playing four games in five nights. Last Wednesday, they got revenge against the Quinte West squad, who had knocked them out of the Silver Stick in Pembroke in overtime, by winning 4-2, on goals by Eli Brown (two), Ethan Winter, and Seth Foster. Eric Joyner, Brendan Hagerman, Alex Brady, and Adam Doyle (two) added assists. On Friday the Stars faced the Kingston Canadians, and again they proved that they could compete winning 3-2. Adam Doyle scored a wrap-around goal early in the second, set up by Nelson Powers. A long, stretch pass let their guests to tie things up. In the third, Brendan Hager-

man sent a loose puck to Steven Shea to reestablish the lead. Shea made it 3-1 on a rebound of a Power’s point shot. The visitors got a wrap-around goal late to make it 3-2. Saturday they faced the bottom-feeding Ajax Knights, and trounced them 5-1. Hagerman tallied twice, and Brown, Brady and Doyle had singles. Their road trip to Uxbridge made for a perfect, but long weekend, with a well-earned 3-0 shutout by Finn Pierce. n The Napanee Peewee AE Stars suffered a couple of setbacks as they prepare for the Silver Stick Regional Tournament in Georgina this weekend. The Stars fell to the Oshawa Minor Generals 72 at the Strathcona Paper Centre on Saturday night, then fell apart against the Whitby Wildcats in a 5-3 heartbreaker on Sunday at the SPC. After skating with the visiting Generals in the early going on Saturday, Napanee simply couldn’t keep up with Oshawa as the game wore on. Colby Sweet scored both Napanee’s goals, while bluelinerturned-forward Braiden Brant assisted on both markers. Cal DuChene also earned an assist. The following day against Whitby, Napanee opened up a 3-1 lead against the Wildcats by the end of the second period. Following the flood, however, it was all Wildcats: the visitors dropped four unan-

swered goals on the Stars. The line of Brock Vale (one goal, one assist), Michael Lloyd (two assists) and Kiel Benton (one goal) factored on the scoresheet for Napanee. Spencer Chatterton scored the Stars’ first goal. Brant collected an assist. The back-to-back losses came after a solid effort against the Stirling AE Blues in an exhibition tilt on Nov. 25 on the Home Hardware Rink. The Stars easily skated to an 7-3 victory. The Benton-Lloyd-Vale connection was once again working well: all three players had two goals and one assist. Chatterton also scored. Earning assists were Logan Votary, Bruce Dunham, Matt Thompson, Sweet and DuChene. The Stars now look to return to those winning ways at just the right time at the Silver Stick Regional this weekend. Their opening game is against none other than the Minor Generals tomorrow morning. n On Friday night, the Napanee Exit Realty Minor Midgets were home, hosting Kingston and then Ajax on Saturday night. It was a tough weekend for the Stars who found themselves down 0-7 against the Canadians and 0-4 vs the Knights. Both Iggy and Nate McFarland were tested hard between the pipes. n The Juvenile A boys faced Stirling Sunday night, and were edged 3-2. Isaac Bowen and Mike Jordan scored for the locals.

I brought you a rose each time and the butterfly came as promised. My gift to you this Christmas is my everlasting love which is the greatest gift of all. I find peace in knowing that you are safe and spending Christmas with Jesus this year. Love is Forever, David

God looked around His garden And found an empty place, He then looked down upon the Earth And saw your tired face, He put His arms around you And lifted you to rest, God’s garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best.

Your garden’s footsoldiers “Man is rated the highest animal, at least among all animals who returned the questionnaire.” ~Robert Brault, www.robert brault.com I was brushing up on my War of 1812 history the other day and was impressed to read that several hundred sailors marched from Halifax to Kingston during the first winter of the war. They were needed to man the new boats being built to fight the good fight on the Great Lakes. Imagine that: no decent roads, sleeping under the stars most nights, trudging through the snow most days by foot. They would have had neither the benefit of motorized transportation nor modern, waterproof footwear. This story reminds me of the many people that do yeoman’s service but seldom get thanks. Like the earthworms in your garden [who, for the purposes of this article, are people too]. I have stated in this column before that it is a very good idea to rake the leaves off of your lawn and on to your garden. The leaves will mat down with rain and weight of snow and begin to break down into a quality layer of organic matter. Come spring, when temperatures reach 10°C, the earthworms move up to the surface of the soil and, upon discovering a fine harvest of leaves, munch on them until they disappear. Take a trip out to your garden on the July first holiday and I guarantee that evidence of your leaves will be gone. So, what happens to them? Glad you asked. This is December, the month to celebrate all of the good things in life and without a doubt, earthworms are one of them. A Gift to Gardeners Earth worms are part
of a biotic community. They, along with centipedes, sow bugs and a variety of other useful earth bound critters, provide an invaluable service. When earthworms arrive at the surface of the soil they consume the carbon and nitrogen-rich fallen leaves [and leaf mould]. These are mineralized by microorganisms inside of the earthworm’s gut. As the leaves pass through the sophisticated digestive system of the worm they are converted into nitrogen rich earthworm ‘castings’. As the worms move through the soil, sometimes as deep as a meter, they constantly leave these castings behind. They are a gift to the gardener. The castings quickly

stabilize and become resistant to chemical and physical degradation. They enhance the quality of your soil by stabilizing and storing nitrogen and carbon until the microbes in the soil break them down. As the worms move through your soil they open it up, essentially aerating it, making oxygen available to the roots of your plants. Every plant on earth benefits from oxygen at its root zone. With healthier roots your plants will perform better, the need to fertilize is minimized [or it disappears] and water moves through the soil more efficiently. Plants more easily channel their roots through the tunnels created by the earthworms. While we could assume that earthworms do their work as part of some big, master plan on the part of Mother Nature it is worthwhile noting that there are no native earthworms in Canada. If they existed at one time, as fossils suggest they did, they were wiped
out by the last Ice Age. Your friendly neighbourhood earthworms are immigrants. Either they moved up here from the deep south, where the glaciers never existed, or people brought them over here from Europe during the great plant importing schemes of the 1700s through to 1940. There are over 100 native earthworms in North America. Some are a nuisance, as Prairie gardeners can tell you. There, they leave enormous mounds of castings on the surface of the soil. Growing a relatively flat lawn is all but impossible in Southern Alberta, for instance. But many other worm species do a lot of good. To nurture the worm population in your yard it is useful to know: n Worms prefer loose, open soil. Turning your soil each spring helps to encourage them. n They are moisture sensitive. During drought they move deep into the soil and enter a resting phase. In heavy rain they move to the surface of the soil to escape the lack of air in their tunnels. n Many chemicals are known to do permanent damage to earthworm populations. (examples: carbaryl, malathion, diazinon) n One active worm will process up to one fifth of a kilogram of organic matter per year. n Earthworms are hermaphrodites: they are able to self-propagate. This is a ‘family’ newspaper so I am not privy to sharing the details. Google it. n An earthworm can live between three and 10 years depending on species and soil conditions. Another hero of the garden is the common toad. They feed on a wide variety of insects and have quite an appetite. The insects that they eat are
Despite their looks, toads can be helpful residents in your garden, thanks to their healthy appetite for insects. often a nuisance in the garden, so you want to encourage toads as much as possible. Slugs and mosquitoes are just two of their preferred prey. They overwinter deep in the soil and will travel up to half a kilometer to reach a breeding ground come spring. Males often get a free ride on the back of a female. Perhaps we should make up a new expression “couch toad” to describe certain males of
the human species. It takes about two years for a toad to mature to full size but they live for up to 10 years. To encourage a population of toads in your yard I suggest that you leave some leaves on the soil [another reason to do this!], do not ‘sanitize’ your garden by removing all of the perennials and mulch that is there this time of year. Give them shelter and they will reward you
next season. Toads and earthworms are just two of the unsung heroes of the garden. Together they are essential weapons in our war against poor quality soil.

Community Living L&A, Special Olympics C O M M U N I T Y PULSE to hold black-tie fundraiser in February
By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER STAFF WRITER Lack of government funding has prompted Community Living Lennox and Addington and the local Special Olympic committee to combine forces, creating a black tie event set for Feb. 9 at the Strathcona Paper Centre. Both dedicated to assisting individuals with developmental disabilities, the organization drew upon that to create the ‘A Night To Feel Inspired’ gala, which will feature dinner, cocktails and live music. Their efforts are put towards inspiring their clients as well as often being inspired by their clients. Providing the entertainment will be A Bit Of Nostalgia, featuring Canadian Idol Season 1 winner and NDSS graduate Ryan Malcolm. They’re known for covering hit pop songs from the 1960s and 70s.
Also taking the stage will be Newburgh’s Sam and Emma McNichols. Both musicians have made a name for themselves locally, regularly wowing audiences at community events with their piano playing and singing voices. “In the last four years we haven’t had any extra dollars added to our usual operating budget,” said Bard Fabius, Community Living L&A executive director. “Because of the crisis that we’re in in our province across the board, we are in a scenario where there hasn’t been any new dollars added to our regular costs. Four years, that’s a long time.” In the past they’ve used money to help fund programs for their clients, as well as added a projector and patio to their Community Living space, located at 99 Richmond Blvd. “For the Special Olympic side of it, transportation is a big item,” said Gail Maracle, who is a community coordinator with the L&A
Special Olympics as well as president of the board at Community Living. “To get people to various venues to participate in sports is expensive. We don’t have a bowling alley here, we don’t have a swimming pool here. A large amount of dollars that we raise would go towards transportation costs.” Though the night will feature dancing, there’s something for the gentlemen as well. Maracle says they'll have a live and silent auction that will appeal to both genders. Tickets for the event are $80 per person, or $600 for an eight person table, which can be purchased at Napanee Opticians. Individual tickets can be bought at Community Living. Fabius and Maracle are hoping Christmas shoppers will consider the tickets when looking for a gift for someone who already has everything. Cocktails will start at 6 p.m. and the music begins at 7 p.m.

Lions’ penny drive cashes in for local charities OSPCA, Salvation Army share $6,220 donation By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER STAFF WRITER ENNY by penny, the Napanee Lions Club turned pocket change into a $6,220 donation that will be split between the Salvation Army and Lennox and Addington Humane Society. The club raised that money through a penny drive started in April, right after the Canadian government announced it was discontinuing the penny. After watching Breakfast Television host Kevin Frankish raise $200 on the streets on Toronto in one morning, Lion Club member Eileen Huard was inspired. “Every week we (Eileen and her husband Bill) would go to one store and once a month we’d hit two stores,” she said. “We’d sit there for about four hours with our sign and our barrel.” Rarely did a weekend go by this past summer that the Huards weren’t outside a store collecting donations. They say they only managed to take one fishing trip all summer. The rest of their time was spent to carrying out their fundraising project. The idea was to give people a chance to empty their pockets and toss away all the pennies that were jingling in their pockets. Rarely do pennies come in handy, so people were usually willing to part with their one-cent coins. As the drive wore on people became more generous, tossing in nickels, quarters, loonies and even paper bills. “The goal was actually $4,000,” said Bill. “But it went up to $6,000. Everybody was involved, all the Lions Club members. That’s the way it should be.” Members of the Lions Club chipped in with coins of their own, collecting enough for a $100 donation. The Prince Charles School got into the act as well, filling up a bucket with $150 worth of coins. The club decided to put it to a vote to decide which charity they’d like to support. It was then that they decided on the Salvation Army and L&A OSPCA. Before Monday night’s meeting at the Lions Hall they made a formal presentation to both charities and revealed the total amount they'd raised to the rest of the club. Needless to say, they were all pleasantly surprised. Even though the campaign has wrapped up, the coins continue to keep rolling in. The Huards have decided that any more money they collect will be passed on to the Salvation Army Food Bank.

Historic bell bound for town fire station By Seth DuChene EDITOR The old fire bell from the former Napanee fire station on the Market Square is destined for a new home: the current Napanee fire station on Advance Avenue. Greater Napanee council approved the relocation at its last regular meeting last Tuesday night. The move was made at the behest of Greater Napanee Fire Services Chief Terry Gervais, who said that the bell would be added to a new historic display at the hall. The siren once used to summon volunteer firefighters to the fire hall will also be installed in the display. “With the revitalization that we’re trying to do with bringing some history to the headquarters station on Advance Avenue, we’ve had a discussion about relocating the bell to Advance Avenue, along with the fire siren,” Gervais told council. “We would then incorporate those two signalling devices from different generations — first being the bell from 1870 and then later the siren — into the front of our building leading into the lobby where we have some of our historical items.” The relocation allowed for the installation of an artificial LED Christmas tree frame near the bell’s former location, at the western edge of the Market Square near Centre Street. In a written staff report to council, Gervais said the relocation would cost approximately $500. Not all council members, however, were eager to see the bell moved from its current location. Ward 5 Councillor Shaune Lucas argued that the bell represented an impor-

tant part of the history of downtown Napanee, and as such it should have remained on the Market Square. “I really think it’s important that our history be where it should be, not somewhere else,” Lucas said. Lucas did suggest the bell be moved closer to the town hall to allow for the Christmas tree to be installed. Two Greater Napanee councillors with connections to the fire department suggested that the artifact would serve as an inspiration to the town’s firefighters. Ward 4 Councillor Bill Pierson — who served at the old downtown fire station as a firefighter and who served as the department’s deputy-chief — said that the bell would connect current firefighters to the history of the department. “To me, it enhances our sense of heritage,” Pierson. Ward 1 Councillor Mike Schenk, who serves as a volunteer at the Dorland fire station, expressed similar sentiments. “What makes a fire department? It’s the unity of full-time and part-time (firefighters),” he said. “It’s part of their history also. When they go to do training on a Monday night, they’ll see part of their history, what their (predecessors) have done, and it will give them that little extra incentive to do that extra training night.” Ward 3 Councillor Marg Isbester said that while she appreciated Lucas’ viewpoint, she believed the bell would have a more meaningful impact at the fire station on Advance Avenue. “I do believe that in this case we have to overlook the location and look at what this bell really means to the people who worked for it all these years.”
