Russian women’s hockey team to train in Napanee SPC to be home-away-from-home during IIHF World Championship BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter
Russia’s National Women’s hockey team will dock in Napanee March 24 to 29, turning the Strathcona Paper Centre into their training camp home base for the week. The ladies’ team, also known as the ‘Big Red Machine’, will run drills inside the SPC as they prepare for the IIHF Ice Hockey Women’s World Championship, which takes place April 2-9 in Ottawa. They’re one of eight teams that will be stationed across eastern Ontario in advance of the tournament. All host venues were selected by Hockey Canada, who is organizing the event. “We just wanted to go with a place we were familiar with and we knew the Strathcona (Paper Centre) facility was a great facility,” Bryan Swain of Hockey Canada said in regards to why Napanee was selected. “We knew it was convenient as there was a hotel (Hampton Inn) right across the arena there.” The arena has been on Hockey Canada’s radar since successfully hosting the 2008 Women’s U-18 National Championships. Much like the ‘08 event, which featured eventual 2010 Olympic gold medalist Marie-Philip Poulin, the Russian squad that comes to practice in Napanee will be filled with current and future Olym pians. Many of the players who take part in the World Championships are expected to suit up in
for the 2014 Olympic games in Sochi, Russia. As the host team, players will have the extra incentive to earn their spot on the roster. Playing on the SPC’s ice seemed to provide good luck for Poulin, who went on to score both goals in Canada’s 2-0 gold medal win over the U.S. in Vancouver. The Russians could use a little luck as they haven’t medaled at the IIHF World Women’s Championship since earning bronze in 2001. They enter this year ranked sixth in the world. Assembled by former NHL star Alexei Yashin, the Russian squad features some of the country’s biggest stars in female hockey, including some who played in the 2006 and ‘10 Olympic games. Details of their visit are still being hammered out, but Swain says local fans should have ample opportunity to meet the players and get autographs. Although they’ll play no exhibition games in Napanee, fans will have a chance to watch some of the practices. “We’ve seen some pretty good support in the last couple of years,” Swain said of national teams visiting Canadian towns. “Last year for the World Juniors we had teams spread out all over Alberta. We found the communities really embraced it and took it in. That’s what we’re hoping the communities across eastern Ontario are going to do also.”

physiotherapy services to all seniors to improve quality of life and support independent living. The Village Green nursing home in Selby has plans to enter into a partnership with the Designated Physiotherapy Clinics Association and, if government approval were granted, physiotherapy services would be offered to those outside of the nursing home. “We support the initiative with the relationship
with DPCA and being able to provide a hub for the community for physiotherapy services. Being able to engage that relationship is for the greater good and helping our seniors that are out there and not able to access that service,” said Linda Pierce, executive director of Village Green. “We’re in a community where it would be close proximity for them (the seniors.) It’s user-friendly, it works, so we’re proud to be

Joe Bodzasi, a doubleamputee who has lived at Village Green since 2011, was practicing walking with his prosthetics. He said he practices about two times a week to improve his strength. “He has a really positive attitude,” said Pierce. Melles said he expects the partnership to save the government money through using existing infrastructure and programming. “The Ministry of Health was talking about pushing more care for seniors in the communities and away from the hospitals and out of the care homes and provide resources to allow them to age at home so they stay mobile. When they start going to the hospital, it costs the health care system a lot of money. We agree with that, we think it’s the right thing to do, but the ministry hasn’t decided who’s going to service it and how will they fund it. So one of the smart things they are looking to do is use existing infrastructure,” he said. “Without having to build anything new, we have staff here, we have equipment, we have a facility, all we need the ministry to do is to change the rules and allow seniors from across the road to come here.”

able to support DPCA with the goal and really hope that the government will listen to that goal and give us the opportunity to go forward with it,” she continued. Pierce said Village Green would provide the space and equipment through the partnership, while DPCA would supply further resources and programming. “We’ve told the ministers that we want to push this in the community,” said Tony Melles, executive director of DPCA, who came from Toronto for a tour of Village Green last week. “Linda’s (Pierce’s) staff is really good at working with seniors, that’s what they do… they will understand them. So there’s willingness on our part and we have staff here (at Village Green),” said Melles. During the tour Melles and the Napanee Beaver met with two Village Green residents using physiotherapy services who have also shown improvements in balance and quality of life. Stanley Cross, 88, rode a physiotherapy bicycle to improve his balance. “We’re working to improve his balance because we don’t want him falling,” said Tunish Nalluru, physiotherapist at Village Green.

HOME | Certain restrictions CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Melles said the DPCA is maxed-out as far as governmental funding goes and said the partnership is not a means for DPCA or the government to make money. “We haven’t asked for an increase in funding. The funding overall for our organization is capped,� said Melles. He said if the program were accepted, criteria for the program would be specified. Some restrictions would include a medical referral and age limitations. Melles said anyone who supports the program and partnership of Village Green and DPCA should voice their concerns to their local MPP.

There is nothing more frustrating than spending your money and time on a project only to be unsatisfied with the end result. Although this may be a repeat for some readers or clients who have heard this topic before, we are going to revisit the issue in hopes of educating anyone interested. Ceilings have to be my least favourite of all when it comes to tackling a painting project. I am not sure if it is because I have always been the one selected to complete them or if I just dislike the process all together. A few years ago, I thought I had solved my dislike. I realized the excitement for me was actually applying a colour to the walls so, I started to apply colour to my ceilings. Unfortunately this new found like was short lived. I am back at square one. Inevitably, the winter months cause reason for concern when it comes to painting a ceiling. Ceiling paint is very low on the sheen level or more commonly referred to as “flatâ€?. There are many reasons for this which, I will avoid diving into today. But, one important fact we want to impress upon you is that flat paint commonly dries faster. Couple this with the fact that winter causes the need for supplemental heating and presto ‌ you have a problem in the making. As you can logically realize, supplemental heat will increase the drying time and as heat rises, an increased temperature will be

and
present at the ceiling. It is not unusual for there to be a significant difference in temperature between the floor and the ceiling. On average, in homes with a ceiling height of 8’, a 15 degree difference can be noted. The increase in heat at the freshly painted surface can cause ununiformed drying. Most commonly, unsightly ridges or flashing will appear. Often to correct this surface flaw, people will make the mistake of adding a second coat. Contrary to peoples’ belief, this only adds to the problem. The first step to fixing the unsightly issue is to sand the surface. Secondly, be sure to work in a temperature conducive to allow for a consistent finish. Most people are aware of the dangers of painting in the heat of summer and the supplemental heat indoors, during winter is reason for concern as well. To prevent an issue from the beginning of your project, be aware of the heat differential and lower the temperature of your work area to reduce an increase in temperature at the ceiling. Finally, be sure to use the right product for the project at hand. Never forget, the Team at AURA by Colour Connection is always available to guide you through your projects with their expert advice. If you can’t make it in to the store, call (613-354-9200) or email (info@aurabycc.com) anytime.

Russian connections Our big sporting events of recent years have paid dividends. They continue to pay dividends for the community. This week, we learned that the Russian national women’s hockey team will get ready for the IIHF World Championships in Ottawa by setting up shop at Napanee’s Strathcona Paper Centre for a few days later this month. This is good news, and for a few reasons. First, and most obviously, it will mean spinoffs for the local economy. While it’s just one hockey team, it’s not just any hockey team. Undoubtedly, many Napanee area businesses will benefit from their stay. Second is the fact that the Russians’ visit will be a great opportunity for Napanee’s young people — and we’re not just talking about athletics. Sure, Napanee’s hockey players (male or female) would stand to benefit by watching some of the Russian players as they are put through their paces before the big international tourney. But this is a cultural and educational opportunity as well. It was hinted by Hockey Canada officials that the Russian team would engage with the public during their stay. We hope they do. Our youth can learn a lot from this team, more than just what it takes to play elitelevel hockey. Third, and perhaps most important of all, is the fact that Greater Napanee is still on the national (and even now international) sports radar. This community did a good job of hosting the Canadian Junior Women’s Championships back in 2008. And, we did a good job for both the Ontario Tankard in 2010 and Canadian Junior curling championships in 2011. People obviously sat up and took notice. We hope the Russians’ visit later this month will be the latest example a continuation of sporting success stories for this community.
Shaking Alberta is an ongoing process After a couple of months back in my home province, I’ve almost shaken myself clean of Alberta’s dust and cowboy ways. Almost. The process of changing everything over has been a long and daunting task. But even when I lose my Albertan license plates and identification, I believe some habits will continue to stick out like a rookie at the Stampede. I remember interviewing someone a while back when I was still out west and telling him I was from Ontario. He was shocked. “With that accent, I would
have thought you grew up here in northern Alberta,” he said with some twang as he climbed into his massive truck. I’m sure he meant it as a compliment but it didn’t come across that way. Call me stubborn or perhaps it was just a case of ‘the grass is always green on the other side,’ but not being associated with my home province put me on the defensive.

I certainly wouldn’t admit it to anyone out west, but it’s possible that I might still be a bit hung up on Alberta. Now I find myself defending the Wild Rose province, even to the point where I’m sticking up
for oil and pipeline projects that claim to be environmental and clean when in reality I know an environmental oil plant is a huge oxymoron. Perhaps my mother was right: maybe I do just have a bad case of ‘the grass is always greener on the other side’ — or perhaps I just can’t pass up a good argument.

A ‘seedy’ pastime Blue Daisy / 25-35 / March 4-17
“One of the most delightful things about a garden is the anticipation it provides.” ~W.E. Johns, The Passing Show On my property stands an authentic pioneer cabin from the 1840s. My late father, Len, salvaged it from the wrecking ball about 30 years ago. Inside of this fine virgin pine structure is a collection of gardening paraphernalia that I have collected over the years. Among the artifacts is a box of swede garden seeds that date back to 1947. I tested some of them recently and lo and behold they are still viable: they germinated in spite of being dormant in a dusty box for over 60 years. The seeds that you buy on the racks at your local retailer this time of year are, thankfully, a lot fresher than my swedes. In fact the producers of retail seed packets are required by law to sell seed that was harvested last year for sale this season. That is why the back of a seed packet is generally stamped with the date. As we wade into spring, there is a general awakening that occurs in us. Something stirs that makes us want to get outside to throw a Frisbee or take the dog for an extra long walk. Like a bear waking from hibernation, we go outside and breathe deep the fresh air of spring. There is something primal about it. The seeds that we sow each spring for our garden go through a similar process: Mother Nature has programmed them to produce a root right about now. Or, over the next few months. For this reason I draw

When to get started: To determine the best time to get seeds started, consider the number of days it will take to grow a transplant to planting size and count the days back from the planting date. For instance, if May 24 is the planting date and you want to start tomatoes [which will grow to planting size in four to six weeks], the seed starting ‘window’ is during the first two weeks of April. Or follow the chart below which assumes May 24 is the planting date. (Easier, right? Just post this on your fridge).

Starting a garden from seed is one of the most satisfying experiences that you can have as a gardener. Imagine telling friends that you have over for dinner this summer that the tomatoes they are enjoying were not only grown by you but started by you from seed. You will surprise yourself at how easy it really is. Mark Cullen appears on Canada AM every Wednesday morning at 8:40 a.m. He is a spokesperson for Home Hardware Lawn and Garden.

Big Island Marsh is looking different now As the huge arm and bucket dug into the cattails, I could feel the entire floating mass upon which the high-hoe was perched start to sink about 10 inches beneath our feet. Raising the bucket to dump the dredged material into the growing pile, the cattail surface started to rise again. The huge machine was safe though as it rested on a secure construction mat of square timbers, thereby distributing the weight of the machine over a greater area. A second platform nearby could be snagged with the bucket and moved to another location either in front of or behind the machine when it was necessary to move to a new location. This is the Big Island Marsh, and compared to its younger days, the 2,000-acre wetland has since become a tangled, cohesive mass of cattails. The entire marsh is like a thick carpet of vegetation and root masses that floats languidly on a shallow layer of water and years of accumulated silt. The network of channels that once interconnected with small ponds has long since disappeared. Fish are no longer present in its core, and both frog and bird species have declined. My father once spoke of how, as a child, he could skate
from Northport, all the way to Muscote Bay, a distance of eight kilometres, on a channel that flowed from one end of the marsh to the other. Memories. All memories. Today, only infinitesimal remnants remain of that channel. The introduction of water level regulations and the presence of the causeway that connects the mainland of Prince Edward County to Big Island resulted in the over-growth of cattails in the area, but that is about to change. The ambitious, privately funded project, when fully implemented, will provide approximately 12 hectares (30 acres) of open water pond habitat and 4.6 km (almost three miles) of channel habitat. The giant pond, jokingly dubbed by friends as the “Sprague Pond” is being excavated with more than a half dozen high-hoes right in front of our home and will extend in a westerly direction for a distance of almost a half kilometre. The new pond will marry with the central channel by interconnecting waterways. The project is fashioned after the success of the Sawguin Marsh restoration project of 20 years ago, located between Huff’s Island and Mountain View. A
Terry Sprague
Outdoor Rambles maize of sinuous channels excavated there have remained deep and intact, and now support numerous fish and other wildlife species, including species at risk. It is hoped that the Big Island Marsh project will be as successful. The Bay of Quinte Remedial Action Plan (BQRAP), Quinte Conservation and Prince Edward County Stewardship Council actually began a partnership last February to improve wetland habitat at the Big Island Marsh, with part of the leading end of the channel at the marsh’s east end being dredged. This year’s project will build on the success of that initial effort. The project
helps the BQRAP address several of the environmental challenges it has been working to restore: loss of fish and wildlife habitat and degradation of fish and wildlife populations. Contractor Drew Harrison and his crew are an ambitious lot, getting under way most mornings before light and continuing through the day until darkness. Even during the heavy snow and winds in January when a lake effect storm dumped over 30 cm on parts of the county, the machines carried on for most of the day, although they were rarely visible in the blowing snow. As a farmer from way back, I bask in the sound of diesel engines at work, and I am ashamed to confess that I enjoy the smell of diesel smoke wafting my way. I look forward to seeing waterfowl gathering in the spring and fall in “our” pond, something I haven’t seen or heard at our end of the Big Island Marsh since moving to our present location 37 years ago. Returning too perhaps, will be the exhausted calls of pied-billed grebes, the croaking of gallinules, and the cuckoo-like calls of least bitterns. Is it too much to hope for the return of black terns, a
species that disappeared from our marsh a decade or more ago? I look forward to launching my canoe this spring and just letting the gentle breeze take me along and relish in the marsh wrens and swamp sparrows appearing on centre stage along the edges of the cattails that remain. It is an exciting project and one that I never thought I would see in my lifetime. Be sure to stop by if you get a chance and see this project underway. Of course, with any good thing, there is always a downside. Early on in the project, the Quinte Conservation canoe that was used to monitor the water depth and other aspects of the project, was stolen. In today’s disturbed and irresponsible society, someone noted that we had neglected to chain and padlock it to one of the high-hoes! The canoe is a natural finish aluminum canoe with a square stern designed to accommodate an outboard motor. If you should see it in your travels, let us know. We’d like it back. For more information on today’s topic, please e-mail tsprague@kos.net or phone 613 476 5072. For more information on nature in the Quinte area, be sure to check out www.naturestuff.net.

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 65 Years Ago March 10, 1948 n A large fire in downtown Napanee left several businesses almost completely destroyed. The business block on the east side of John Street, just north of Dundas Street, was affected by the blaze. Reid Brothers Hardware and John Wilson’s Real Estate Office were in rubble, and two residential tenants on the second floor were dislodged into bitterly cold winter weather. The fire was started by a burst of flame from a blowtorch being used at the hardware store. n A former Napanee resident who was living in Detroit would have a harrowing story to tell about her brush with criminals. Elaine Terry was carrying a bag of money, the property of a nearby department store, through the lobby of a bank in Detroit when a man snatched the bag from her, as well as a bag being carried by another woman. More than $4,000 total was taken in the heist. The loss would prove to be short-lived, however — two men were arrested nearby in connection with the robbery, and all the money was recovered by police.
35 Years Ago March 8, 1978 n Local MP Doug Alkenbrack now found himself in a three-way race for the local Progressive Conservative nomination. Bill Vankoughnet of Napanee indicated that he would be seeking the local Tory nod. Besides Alkenbrack, Nan Whitlaw of Bancroft was also seeking the PC nomination. It was not unheard-of for incumbent MPs to be challenged from within the party. Alkenbrack himself successfully challenged sitting Tory MP Clarence Milligan in 1962. Earlier, Milligan toppled sitting MP George Tustin in a nomination race in 1957. n Ernestown Council was concerned about the impact ongoing international trade talks would have on textile manufacturers located in the municipality. Council feared that changes in the tariff structure for textiles would cause a devastating loss of revenue for Celanese, which employed nearly 1,000 at its plant just west of Amherstview. Ernestown Council passed a resolution regarding the matter, and directed it to the Government of Canada and other municipalities.

ill-equipped for Ontario winters, in part due to the numerous large windows that were wonderful for light, but not for heat loss in the Canadian climate. Hart House has smaller windows cut low into the wall in the original 12-over-12 pane pattern set off by a simple sash. A wooden dado, below the windows, forms that portion on the interior, while simple shutters frame the windows on the street side. The door façade is impressive but understated in keeping with the style and mirrored in the equally impressive rooftop belvedere. One other impressive belvedere in town is further down West Street at Dundas and yet another is on the former home of Alexander Smith on East Street. Both are much larger in the Italianate style and referred to as cupolas. An upper central balcony sets the West Street Regency apart, although the original door has been replaced. Inside, cross and bible panelled doors were common in Loyalist homes as were large Rumford fireplaces in the Regency cottage. Lt. Colonel Babcock, Canadian Armed Forces, (1887-1980) served in both world wars, including training with the Royal Flying Corps. He bought the West Street Regency cottage on the one quarter acre of land in 1950. Babcock worked tirelessly with a number of local organizations, including the Boy Scouts and the Masonic Lodge. He was called, 'Napanee’s Leading Soldier Citizen' and in tribute, The Royal Canadian Branch 137, Napanee named their hall in his honour. The Hart House is not a designated property.

Trinity Church, St. Mary Magdalene Church, St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Church, and the Salvation Army Church. World Day of Prayer is a movement initiated and carried out by women in more than 170 countries. It brings together women of various races, cultures and traditions for unity in prayer and worship. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is something thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done yearly. Different churches in different countries get together so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a day where everyone is worshiping together,â&#x20AC;? said Shirley Jackson, one of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s local organizers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every year itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a different country and the women from that country actually write the booklet, so this year it was France.â&#x20AC;? Women from each church wore different coloured scarves, each representing colours in a

World Day of Prayer organizers by the wide-spread French painting wearing coloured scarves. (l-r)â&#x20AC;&#x2C6;Nina Tucker, Cathy Seymour Colgate, Lynda Joyce, Shirley Jackson, Bernice Reid, Barbara MacLean, Evelyn Storey. French painting by AnneLisa Hammann Jeannot, which complimented the theme and was placed on the front of every booklet and shared worldwide. Jeannot explains on the World Day of Prayer international website that her painting shows an abstract grey character, representing a stranger. This figure is being welcomed by a â&#x20AC;&#x153;near-whiteâ&#x20AC;? abstract colouring, coming from above. Jeannot also used circles and warm colours in her painting to signify
openness and a welcoming atmosphere, which worked hand-in-hand with this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theme. Susan Jackson, another organizer, said the theme came together beautifully thanks to preparation among the six local churches to ensure the event was a success, including meetings and organizing speakers. Muriam Kashira was this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guest speaker, who spoke with a translator. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She speaks with her translator about her time
when she was in Congo and coming to Canada,â&#x20AC;? said Susan. The event drew women (and men) from many denominations and walks of life to the Selby United Church last Friday. Next year the Salvation Army Church will host World Day of Prayer locally. Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s booklet was written by women in Malaysia, with the theme â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Let Justice Prevail.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Prior to that, it was written in Chile, Cameroon, Papua New Guinea, and Guyana.

‘Talents of the Town’ returns with spring market Hard as it may be to believe, winter’s cold, dreary reign is nearly over and spring is just around the corner. A sure sign of the new season is the Talents of the Town Easter-themed Indoor Market, which will take place March 23 at the Strathcona Paper Centre. Back for a second year, the market will be stocked with spring-themed items. The doors will open at 10 a.m. and the event runs until 3 p.m. “We asked that all the vendors that are coming to sell something that it be handmade by them or by a family member or a friend,” said Lyndsay Tee, who is organizing the event. “Something local, handmade. That way (there are) unique items that everyone loves to find.” Already signed up for this year are vendors selling original artwork, natural gourmet dog treats, handmade bath and body soaps, herbal products and tea, fresh made baked goods, handmade jewellery, home decor items and more. Last year was so successful that Tee actually had to turn away close to 20 vendors due to space limitations. That’s likely to happen again as Tee says there are about four of the about 45 allotted spaces are left to fill. For those who specialize in homemade products, it

offers them a rare platform to introduce their business to a large, local audience. The indoor market is actually a spinoff of the highly successful outdoor Talents of the Town market, which Tee and Greater Napanee have organized for the past three years. Since then it has evolved to include a spring and holiday indoor market. “So far all the vendors seem to really enjoy it,” said Tee. “The spring one is definitely a good way to help us promote the summer market that’s coming up in May. It’s a good way to get everyone interested and get the vendors out to sell some of their items and get the public excited as well.” Each event has been packed with both sellers and costumers wandering the many tables. Tee will be on hand to inform any potential vendors about the summer market, which will get started May 4. As with the previous three years, the town is inviting local community groups or musicians to entertain shoppers at the market. The market will is held bi-weekly in the Market Square, in front of town hall. The summer market has been so successful that vendors voted to extend its hours, running from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. It will run until September, featuring fruits, vegetables and handmade arts and crafts.

Cancer diagnosis fails to foil local woman’s spirit BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter
Laurie-Ann Grant turns hair loss into opportunity for Hospice L&A fundraiser
iagnosed with breast cancer just weeks before Christmas, Napanee’s Laurie-Ann Grant is facing the challenge with a sense of humour. Rather than withdraw, she turned her fight into a fundraising cause, placing a box inside Cutting Edge

side,” said Grant. “My thought was, this takes the edge off.” Grant had hoped she'd be able to keep her hair but the pain of chemotherapy treatments became too much. Whoever cast the ballot closest to Feb. 27 will win a Tim Nimigan print, the artist behind many of the Napanee Beaver's cartoons, which he donated for the cause. Grant also added to the cause by selling $20 gourmet spice kits from Epicure Selections. In her day job Grant sells the spices which feature no sodium and no MSG. Naturally, it has earned her the nickname Spice Lady around town. All money from the Whack-It-Day guesses and $5 from every kit sold will go towards Lennox and Addington Hospice’s Child and Youth Bereavement Program. “I have a 13-yearold daughter,” Grant said of why she choose that cause. “I wanted to make sure that she had someone to talk to who was going to understand what its like to have a parent dealing with cancer.” The program specializes in helping kids cope with any loss, be it a military parent serving in another

A councillor meets with the children at school. Grant was motivated to act after seeing how much the program was under funded. “There’s one lady that does the Child and Youth Bereavement Program,” said Grant. “She’s running from the far end of L&A County to the North end of L&A County and trying to council all those kids.
They don’t necessarily get it when they need it, it’s whenever they can fit the course in.” She’s hoping to raise enough money to perhaps hire more councillors to help ease the workload of Cathy Colgate, who is covering the entire area for now. People can still drop off donations at Cutting Edge Beauty Salon on 6 Mill St. W. and purchase spice kits up until Monday. After going through her second round of chemotherapy
Grant has plans for more fundraisers in the spring. They can also contact Grant by e-mailing spiceladyes@gmail.com to find out how to help out her cause. In the meantime she'll continue her brave battle with a few laughs mixed in when she can. “There's no sexy side to chemo treatments,” she said after getting her hair buzzed. “I thought maybe I’d wake up blonde and six feet tall, but that’s not going to happen.”

Adding Value to Sell Your House Interior Stylist Merola Tahamtan will guide you through staging and designing your home. 613-561-0244 merolatahamtandesigns@live.ca Twitter: @MerolaDesigns
With two weeks away from the first day of spring, many of us may have already got ahead start on our spring cleaning. I know I have, my eagerness for the nice, warm days, spring bulbs sprouting up soon, and the look of a clean palette has me excited. It’s also a great time for those on the real estate market or those soon to be. Cleaning and getting rid of clutter not only helps you prepare to move, but also helps your house sell. You can take things a step further by replacing appliances, fixtures, floor tiles and so on. These replacements will add value to your home. Adding value is just a part of what happens when you fix up a house. The other part is creating the appeal that makes your house sell faster. The faster your house sells, the fewer mortgage payments you continue to make. In
other words, time is money. Here are a few tips for adding value to your home. When selling a house, hthe room that can make R A or break it for you is the w s r kitchen. Even people who don’t cook find the kitchen important. If your kitchen is dated, it can be a turnoff to many buyers, even if it is clean and in working order. They will calculate the cost of updating the kitchen, and if they do make an offer, they will lower it by the cost of a new kitchen. If you are competing against newer homes, an updated kitchen may be an important decision factor in the sale of your home. Take a look at your kitchen. How do your cabinets look? Are they worn? Do the doors and drawers open properly? How about your appliances? Are they different colours? If your kitchen looks tired, mismatched or dated, a renovation can be the difference between a sale and no sale. In many cases, you will get back the money you put into the renovation, and you may even make a profit in the end. If your kitchen does need attention, make a list of the appliances you
need to replace, and do some comparison shopping for the best deal out there. If you select all the appliances in the same colour and, if possible, the same brand, your kitchen will have continuity. It’s also best to go with a timeless white, or stainless steel, not the colour of the day. Replacing cabinets can be very expensive. To keep costs down, try starting with writing down the dimensions of your kitchen and sketching the placement of your cabinets. You can visit a local home improvement store with your sketch and dimensions, and they can input your kitchen into a computer program and determine which standard cabinets you can use. The simpler the style, usually lower the cost. Don’t go for any specialty features, you are selling your house, so no need to splurge. Refacing cabinets may be an acceptable alternative to replacement. Refacing companies put on a veneer on the old cabinets, change doors when necessary, and fix up the old cabinets instead of replacing them completely. You can scrub and oil wood cabinets to refresh
them. If you have painted cabinets and don’t want to pay the extra money to have them refaced, a fresh coat of paint and new knobs can make a big difference. Often when you are replacing cabinets, the countertop and kitchen sink will need to be replaced as well. Again, keep it simple. Look what is popular in your area, whether it’s laminate or granite. Perhaps a slab of granite may be out of your budget, try granite tiles to give you the same look. Check with your real estate agent to see what the best choice is for countertops in your area. The kitchen sink should match either your countertop or your appliances. With replacing the sink, your faucet should be replaced as well. The same rules apply for bathrooms as for kitchens. Those avocado toilets and sinks won’t make their way back into style anytime soon. If you have more than one bathroom, renovating a bathroom can be less inconvenient than doing a kitchen. Doing one bathroom at a time will give you the option of using another while the work is in progress.
After the kitchen, the next most important room for selling a house is the master bath. Again, sketch out your bath with measurements. Measure the cabinets you have now, and measure from the edge of the wall to the centerline of your sink or sinks. This time you are going to make a list of fixtures, rather than appliances. As with the kitchen, keep it simple and keep the colours neutral. Adding on to the house when you are planning to sell may seem like a daunting task, but there are a few items that can be worth the effort. Adding a deck, can give your house fresh curb appeal. Adding a garage, especially in the winter seasons, is a great addition that can actually pay for itself in many cases. Changing to dual pane windows can attract a buyer who would not otherwise look at your house. With energy costs going up every year, many buyers are concerned about energy-efficient homes and may not even consider a home that does not have dual pane windows. With spring just weeks away, landscaping is something to consider. Al-
though landscaping may make your home sell faster, landscaping features do not usually bring you more money. Make sure your grass is looking good, if you have crabgrass or muddy areas, contemplate laying sod over grass seed for more of an instant effect, and get your home on the market sooner. Plant trees instead of seedlings and plant blooming flowers instead of using seeds. Small steps to give an overall added curb appeal to attract your potential buyers. After doing all this work and preparing your house for sale, you may decide that your house isn’t that bad after all. If you don’t have to sell, you may keep the house or just to enjoy it for one more year. Re-evaluate your initial reasons for selling and decide if they are still valid.

When it comes to choosing a neighbourhood, there are countless variables to consider. From the big urban/suburban question to weighing the pros and cons of specific areas, figuring out the where you will call home isn’t easy. According to Ron Abraham, president of the Ontario Real Estate Association, many home buyers end up surprising themselves when it comes to choosing a neighbourhood. “Homebuyers may think they know exactly where they want to live until they start looking at their finances, or a child comes along, or they start a new job,” says Abraham. “It’s not until you sit down with your Realtor and really go through your list of needs and wants that you realize what kind of living arrangements make the most sense for your lifestyle.”
Abraham recommends homebuyers consider the following factors and then
speak to a Realtor to narrow down their options: u Cost of the home: A suburban home may be less expensive than one of the same size in the city. On the flip side, a larger suburban home and yard may require more maintenance and generate higher utility bills. u Commuting costs: Buying a home close to work can reduce commuting costs and time, but be sure to consider all the commuting you do in a day. It can get costly having a car, but so too can relying on public transit. u Personal preferences: Shops, housing and entertainment are clustered closer together
in urban areas, but the commotion of urban living isn’t for everyone. Although you may have to drive a distance when visiting a museum or theatre, living in the suburbs provides a quieter environment to return home to. u Evolving needs: If you are thinking of starting a family, your future housing needs will look
very different from your current ones. For young couples, often looking at suburban options makes a lot of sense, since quality schools, parks and other young families can be found in these kinds of neighbourhoods. u Changing needs: If you are a soon-to-be empty nester with children who will be leaving home in short order, you may no longer require as much space so proximity to family, friends and amenities may become a renewed focus. “Choosing where you will buy a home is one of the biggest decisions that people make. There is no one- size-fits-all answer so it’s important to do your research and speak to a Realtor who can help guide you through the process.” You can also visit www.OREA.com to check out “What neighbourhood is right for me?” an interactive video series created to help kick start your decision.

NDSS Hawks stumble in makeshift Kingston area hockey finals Napanee can’t rebound after falling 6-1 to Holy Cross in the three-team tournament opener
BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter
ith their hopes of winning the Kingston area championships dashed in their first game on Friday morning at the Invista Centre, the NDSS Golden Hawks boys’ hockey team did the next best thingspoil Regi’s chances. Napanee lost the opener of the three team tournament 6-1 to Holy Cross, who had lost to Regi in their first game. That meant Napanee had to win their showdown with Regi by nine goals to have any hope of advancing. All Regi needed was a win to claim the title. Goals would prove to be at a premium as both sides skated to a 1-1 tie after three periods. That forced
W
the game to be decided by a simultaneous shootoutplayers from each team started at centre ice and each skated in opposite directions towards the opponent’s goalie at the same time. Sloan Creighton, who scored Napanee’s only regulation goal, provided the heroics again, scoring on Napanee’s fifth attempt. Cullen Hinds picked up the assist on the first goal. Down at the other end of the ice Hawks goalie Cam Parr made the shootout goal stand, turning away all five of Regi’s shooters. “As a coach you’re cheering for your kid to score and cheering for your goalie all at the same time,” NDSS coach Jim McKinney said of the unique high school rules shootout. Part of the reason why
the game was such a low scoring affair was the fact that Napanee spent 24 minutes of the entire 39 minute contest with a skater in the box. Though the game was a chippy affair, the officials weren't shy about handing out penalties. As satisfying as their comeback victory was and denying Regi, the Hawks had much higher aspirations. Prior to the tournament they played both Holy Cross and Regi twice in exhibition, winning both games. When it counted the Hawks came out flat however, only managing nine shots in their defeat to the Crusaders. Dalton Manley had the only goal, set up by Josh Whalen. “We didn’t have to dig too deep to pull out an effort from them,” McKinney said of his team’s gritty performance in the

Britt Benn ended her fiveyear rugby career with the Guelph Gryphons in grand fashion, touching down four tries in Saturday's National Invitational University Sevens tournament held in Langley, B.C. That effort powered the Gryphons to a 41-0 defeat of the Calgary Dinos and helped earn the Napanee native the Player of the Tournament award. This marked the second year in
a row the Gryphons have captured the Women's Cup Championship. The major tournament saw over 300 rugby players from both genders play a total of 82 games in a 36hour span. Late last year Benn and her Gryphon teammates captured silver in the CIS finals, that time playing the 15s style. Benn was also named the CIS Player of the Year this past November as well as an all-star.

Ontario finals. They finals will be held April 4-7 at Rose City Gymnastics.
The premier event will feature over 1,000 athletes competing before 60 judges.

Minor Peewee Stars earn a win and split with Colts Staff Reporter
The Napanee McDougall Insurance minor peewees opened their semifinal OMHA series with the Barrie Colts Saturday with a fast-paced 3-2 win. The locals scored first with Ryan Kirkpatrick playing a fine give-and-go with Nicholas Kennelly. Kirkpatrick made a couple of skilled moves to get in position for a shot over the blocker. Barrie got one of their own before Kyle Garrett fired one from the left cir-
ond, made a slick move at the blueline to elude an opponent, and go high blocker side. Then, down a goal late in the third, Pierce, with help from Adam Burger, found the open side to knot the score at 2-2. Overtime settled nothing. Games 3 and 4 are in Barrie Friday and Saturday, with a possible Game 5 back in Napanee on Sunday at 2:30 p.m. n On Saturday the Country Traditions Novice A Stars travelled to Uxbridge where they came out with a 4-3 OT win to move them ahead to the OMHA finals. Scoring for the Stars were Owen Gibson (two) and Cal Uens. Cole Campbell scored the overtime winner. Assisting the goals were Gibson, Ethan Martin, Reid Lambert, Quinton Pierce, Zach Slaven and Lukas Hannah. n The Napanee Minor Atoms continued their winning ways in Lakeshore Semifinals with a 3-2 defeat of Whitby Blue on Saturday to go up 2-0 in games. Sunday in Napanee, Jacob Boutilier scored from Isaac Uens. The lead lasted into the third, before Whitby scored twice to win 2-1. Leading 4-2 in points and needing six to win, they travel to Whitby Saturday with a possible game Sunday in at home at 1 p.m.
cle to re-establish the lead. Carter Hunt picked up Matt Sager’s dump-in off the backboards to feed the pass to Garrett. In the third, Emmet Pierce worked his way through traffic to thread a pass to Garrett who found Logan White open at the edge of the crease. White’s goal proved to be the winner. On Sunday, Barrie scored first when a clearing shot was intercepted, and their defenseman shot through a crowd for a screen shot goal. Kirkpatrick, early in the sec-

The goal gave the Crunch a huge momentum shift but they weren’t finished yet. With little room for error, the Crunch showed no signs of caving under the pressure. Continuing their strong team play, the girls again were able to find their way past the goalie, this time courtesy of Saige Pearson. Kristen Sutton picked up the assist. The goal gave Napanee some breathing space and their defense took care of the rest, shutting down the Kingston offense. Playing as team earned the girls a Golden season finale.

Due to the inclement weather that day, winners were chosen by high points for each draw rather than height points ranked from both draws so the first draw men could go home. The first draw winner Vic Matthews from Kingston thanked Jack and all the kitchen workers for a delicious lunch by Captain Sandi McNamee, Sharon VanGent, Susi Reinink, Joanne Fenwick, Shirley MacDonald. The 2nd draw winner Kees VanGent from Napanee continued the thank yous with praising the ice by Frank Dunham and Jim Stapley and the bar staff of Al Thompson, Jack Barker, Tom Ayling and Jack McNamee. McNamee ended the presentations by thanking all the sponsors without whom he could not have done the great job he did – Murray Halliday with two rounds of golf at Napanee Golf and Country Club, Clow Farm Equip, Country Depot, L&A Mutual, Moore Bros, ONeills’s Farm Supply, Waste Management, Home Hardware and Hart’nHart. Congratulations to Monday winners Rob Dickson, Ryal Rowe, Scott Dickson and Dave Hart for capturing the A event. Bill Hogg, Jim Emmons, Tim Smith, Gord Mitchel won the B win event while Daryl Latimer, Paul McDonald, Andrew Hanna and Don Pearson claimed first in the C event. Monday Men’s Club Championship is now under way and formatted, hopefully, to make it com-
T
petitive and interesting for all teams. All teams have a chance to win as there are A,B,C division winners and a Club Championship plaque. Regardless of their earlier play, everyone will have incentive to try their hardest. Phil Wilson chose the format due to losing two cancelled weeks and having an odd number of teams in the overall Monday Men’s draw. The sign up sheet is now posted for our closing Martin & Walters on Saturday April 6, which is a great way to end the season so bring the family and have some fun. Other calendar items to note are our closing General Meeting on Sunday April 7, our annual Banquet on Friday April 19 and our first ever Elegant Junk Sale on Saturday April 27. Shelley and Ellyn are working hard with the organizing of this event so check all closets and start putting items aside for this huge ‘garage sale’. Apparently they are also having an ‘estate table’ with some antique/heirloom items. Members of the club are already very excited about the upcoming sale.
organize a mini-season with the two Algonquin entries. All sides agreed to the three team tournament, allowing the winner to advance for a shot at OFSAA. “I can sit around and wallow and be sad about (having a contract imposed by the government), or I can do what I ask the kids to do,” McKinney said of volunteering to start coaching again in the second semester. “It didn’t take me long to say giddy up because that’s where we’re headed. As far as I’m concerned if we’re going to be there in a month’s time, we might as well be there now.” Sure enough, later that day an announcement on KASSAA’s website stated the league would return in full force the spring season.

Cam Parr is a goalie with the NDSS Golden Hawks hockey team. This past Friday he turned in a great performance against the Regi Panthers, allowing just one goal while facing constant power-play pressure. In the shootout he stopped all five shooters to allow the Hawks to seal the 2-1 victory.

Because of job action taken by Limestone District School Board teachers in protest of Bill 115, much of the winter sports season was halted in December. That meant KASSAA playoffs were effectively canceled. Teachers in the Algonquin School Board, which include Regi and Holy Cross, didn’t take those same actions, agreeing to a contract with the stipulation that if the Limestone teachers won their fight, they’d revisit their contract. While many Limestone teachers refused to resume extracurricular activities in the second semester, they were no longer sanctioned by their union to do so. That left McKinney and Mike Hartwick able to

Garnet was born June 1, 1923 to Francis and James Brown. He lived his life on and took great pride in the farm where he was born. He worked at Strathcona Paper Mill for twenty-five years while farming at the same time. Garnet was a kind, quiet, gentle man who loved life, his family, and his church. Whether it was a dance, playing cards, listening to the fiddlers, church dinners or other events, Garnet enjoyed a good time. He took great pride in his three granddaughters and was happiest when they came to visit. He left this world on December 21, 2012 to join his beloved daughter Darlene in Heaven. I would like to extend grateful, heartfelts and sincere thanks to all who showed your sympathy through so many ways: thoughts, prayers, phone calls, hugs, donations, flowers and food. Thank you to the Hannah Funeral Home for all your assistance and to the Roblin United Church U.C.W. for the luncheon after the Service. Thank you so much to Rev. Anne McDermott for your visits and words of comfort. To my granddaughters, Alissa, Sarina and Nadia for the touching tribute. Garnet would have been so proud and pleased. Thank you to the pallbearers, Duane Bird, Wayne, Steven and Kevin Brown and to Phillip, Gary and Denise Frizzell for your inspiring music. A special thank you to Dr. Sloan and Debbie, Dr. McFadzean and the staff at Village Green for your care and compassion. And finally, to my family, friends and neighbours, thank you for the lunch as well as your ongoing support and love. God bless each one of you. Helen Brown

ALKENBRACK - In loving memory of a dear father, grandfather and great-grandfather, Archie, who passed away March 13, 2008. Every day in some small way, Memories of you come our way, Though absent, you are ever near, Still missed, still loved and ever dear. Ever remembered by your son Leo. HUDGINS - In memory of dear wife and mother, Mary E.E., died March 13, 2012. We wanted so much to keep you, We watched you day by day Until with breaking hearts, We saw you slip away, God watched you as you suffered And knew you had your share, He gently closed your weary eyes And took you in His care, Your memory is our keepsake With that we’ll never part, God has you in His keeping, We have you in our hearts, Nothing can be more beautiful Than the memories we have of you, To us you were someone special, God must have thought so too. With love, Ralph, Brian, Mullissa and family, Ann Margaret, Ross and family. MARTIN - In memory of mom, Iva (Sutton), who passed away March 3, 2005.

HOLT, William “Bill”
Passed on February 22, 2013, in his 92nd year, loving husband of the late Ellen (1992). Cherished father of Brian (Eileen) Holt of Coquitlam, B.C.; Jeff (Marlene) Holt of Orleans, Ontario and Joanne (Marv) Holt of Guelph, Ontario. Grandad of Lisa, Candace, Andrew (Erin), Stephen, David and Buster. Bill is survived by his sister Gladys in Lancashire, England. Predeceased by brother Harry (2012) and sister Doris (1995), both of England. Born on October 5, 1921 in Royton, Lancashire, England. He served in the British Army during WWII. Bill bravely brought his wife and two boys to Canada in 1953 with nothing more than determination to make a good life for his family. He worked hard as a Foreman at Millhaven Fibres and as a Custodian at Bath Public School to make that dream a reality. Anyone who knew Bill, knew that he was a stubborn, determined man, but that he was always there for those who needed him. He will be dearly missed by all. Cremation has taken place. A Remembrance Service is to be held in the spring on a date to be determined. Arrangements entrusted to the Wartman Funeral Home “Kingston Chapel”. If you so desire, memorial donations made by cheque to the VON - Kingston Care Program or The Salvation Army - Napanee Branch will be remembered with appreciation by the family. You have peace now Dad. Abou Ben Adhem (may his tribe increase!) Awoke one night from a deep dream of peace And saw, within the moonlight in his room, Making it rich and like a lily in bloom, An angel writing in a book of gold: Exceeding peace had made Ben Adhem bold And to the Presence in the room he said “What writest thou?” - The vision raised its head And with a look made of all sweet accord, Answered “The names of those who love the Lord”, “And is mine one?” said Abou. “Nay, not so” Replied the angel. Abou spoke more low, But cheerily still and said “I pray thee, then, Write me as one that loves his fellow men”, The angel wrote and vanished. The next night It came again with a great wakening light And showed the names whom love of God had blessed And lo! Ben Adhem’s name led all the rest. Two locations to serve you.

March Break activities abound BY ASHLEY FOLEY Staff Reporter
The Napanee Youth Centre has planned its first-ever March Break Camp program, focusing on sports and promoting a healthy lifestyle while giving those on March Break fun activities each day. The program will be offered at Southview Public School from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., March 11-15. It’s designed for youth aged 1215 (Grade 7 and 8). “Basically it’s a sports camp, we’re going to have the first four days set aside for one specific sport and then on Day 5 it will be a tournament and fun day just for the kids to enjoy and learn some new skills,” said Bethany Lessard, Napanee Youth Centre co-ordinator. “It’s a free program, there’s no charge, and we have up to 30 spaces available.” Those interested should register by March 8 by calling Lessard at Greater Napanee municipal office. Day 1 will consist of dodge ball, Day 2 will be lacrosse, Day 3 will be handball and Day 4 will be badminton. “It’s a brand new
program, we’re doing it in conjunction with our after school youth drop in centre,” said Lessard. A Healthy Communities Grant supports both programs. “We’ve had our afterschool program running since September 2011 and last year we didn’t do anything on March break and the kids were interested in doing something so we thought we’d try it this year and see how it went,” said Lessard. Participants are expected to bring a lunch and snacks and are responsible for transportation to and from the program. Other March break programs have been planned throughout Napanee and surrounding areas. The Macpherson House will have activities for children aged six to 12, including basket weaving, knitting, spinning and food preparation. There is a fee of $10-$12 per child. The Yarker Library branch, meanwhile, has a ‘Dragons in the Library’ theme for March break, which will include Bedtime Buddies on March 12 at 6:30 p.m. and dragon crafts on at 1:30 p.m. on March 13.

He owns breweries of his own and has done plentiful research on local and international breweries. In 1973, Barlow bought an 18th century malthouse near Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, in the UK, which he converted and repaired

PUBLIC WORKS ROAD CREW DO GREAT WORK
What a crazy winter this has been with all the snow storms, winds and cold weather conditions. Greater Napanee’s Roads Crew has met the challenge. “The Town of Greater Napanee has an excellent roads crew and we can be proud of their dedication and commitment to keep our roads clear and safe at all times of the year” stated Mayor Gord Schermerhorn. Public Works and Roads Supervisor Ron Vankoughnet speaks very highly of his team and would stack them against any municipal team in the province. “We have a great team of workers that always go beyond to provide the best for our residents and visitors”. Take for example the 2012 December storm and the relentless hours to keep up with a 30-35 cm snowfall in very windy and cold conditions. Not one member of my staff missed a shift and worked around the clock to overcome some tough working conditions. These guys really care and it shows in their work. Mr. Vankoughnet went on to say “We are fortunate to have a Council that appreciates the efforts and provides us with the resources to ensure we can be keep our roads in great shape with a specific emphasis on public safety.” The Roads crew maintains 500 km of road and it takes approximately 5 to 6 hours to complete one plow route. Snow Plow operators can drive up to 13 hours and are required by law to take 8 hours off before they can resume their duties. With 10 plows on the road we are pressed to the maximum to keep up to a major storm. And with all the other duties in the Public Works Division our Town is fortunate to have these guys, said General Manager David Morgan. These guys work around the clock as needed and take pride in what they do said Morgan. Public Works is a big portfolio that includes all road work, tree management, sidewalks, sand and salting, bridges, fleet maintenance, snow plowing and County Road support. Our Public Works and Roads Division also provides assistance to our Parks, Facilities, Utilities and so much more. With Kathy Purcell Administrative Assistant and Ron Vankoughnet Public Works/Roads Supervisor we have a complete team to ensure our residents and visitors are safe and well cared for.
more breweries. Barlow and some students from Manchester University surveyed, measured and recorded the physical form of about 14 maltings during a summer years ago, which varied from 18th to 20th century buildings. “As a result of my research, I acted as a consultant for an Ancient Monuments Society, the Victorian Society and the National Trust, regarding heritage designated maltings when they were the subject for planning applications for alteration or demolition.” During the Macpherson lecture, he will focus on the Tett Building, which housed one of the first breweries in the area. “I first saw the Tett building (originally part of the Morton’s Brewing and Distillery complex) when I came to live in Kingston in 1999,” explained Barlow. “Although much altered in the 1920s, when it was converted into a military hospital, I thought I could detect some characteristics of a malthouse. My curiosity was piqued, I just had to find out,” he said. He will go into detail on these findings in his lecture. This will be the first time the Macpherson House has hosted a beer tasting and lecture event in some time, but Karen Price, curator of Macpherson House, said the event will be fitting since
Macpherson had his own ‘spirited’ operation. “Macpherson had his own distillery. I thought we could find a way to tie the beer tasting into the history of the house and just to give people something a little different than the whisky tasting. The whisky tasting is more of a formal event, you come in with the whiskies and the bagpipes but this is more of a casual event, a little bit more low-key,” said Price. “I’m trying to focus more on the history of what distilleries are. Anthony (Barlow) will be talking about the different malting in breweries and trying to tie it into the Scottish history and things for the Macpherson family,” said Price. She also said the history of the Tett Centre is interesting in itself because it’s done differently than other breweries. “You get to learn something. If you’re not a beer drinker, you can still come and be able to enjoy something like that with the history tying it all together,” said Price. With the funds raised, Price hopes to finish the curtains in the ballroom as well as plan more community and events and programs. She hopes for about 40-50 participants for this event. Tickets are $60 each or $100 for a couple and can be bought at the Macpherson House at 613-354-5982.

NACHC to hold healthy eating workshops
BY ASHLEY FOLEY Staff Reporter
arch is nutrition month and to promote healthy eating and active living, a local dietician is offering free nutrition workshops throughout the month. One of the workshops offered by Aleris Cronk, dietician at the Napanee & Area Community Health Centre, will promote healthy eating and is open to anyone interested in
M
learning about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in their food and how to eat well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The topics weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be discussing over the two sessions are Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Food Guide, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to go over balanced meals, portion control, then weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to touch on saturated versus unsaturated fats and then weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to discuss the benefits of fiber, the importance of exercise, food label reading, and how to grocery shop for less,â&#x20AC;? said Cronk. This is a two-part workshop which will run March
14 and 21, from 6-7:30 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is nutrition month so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nation-wide campaign that dieticians celebrate every year so I figured it was important to tap into that idea of the healthy eating and making this workshop available to people in the community,â&#x20AC;? she said. Though Cronk is the facilitator, she said she encourages participants to get involved, making the workshops about them and whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to their health.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the healthy eating workshop, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really a time for people stories and share struggles. I really let the group lead the discussion on each topic,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will be diving in to each topic and really itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be the group that leads that discussion.â&#x20AC;? She is also offering a Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Get Cooking workshop for those with pre-diabetes or diabetes. This workshop is also free and will run from 9:30-11:30 a.m. on March 22. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We get together as a
group and we prepare easy, helpful meals and we use a lot of vegetables in cooking and discuss how to eat more balanced on an everyday basis,â&#x20AC;? said Cronk. Topics will include cooking on a budget, using vegetables in your cooking, healthy eating to manager or prevent diabetes, and tips to prepare easy and healthy meals. Cronk, who is a diabetes dietician, encourages anyone who wants more information on diabetes to contact her at the Health
Clinic. She said patients are not required to have a doctor at the Health Clinic, or a doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s note, to meet with her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We accept patients or clients from anywhere that wants to get help with their diabetes management. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a free of charge service and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of outreach.â&#x20AC;? Those interested in participating in either workshop can register by contacting Cronk by email or phone, at alerisc@nachc.kchc.ca or 613-354-8937 ext 154.

WANTED
Hometown Country Jamboree, Curtis and Mitchel would travel to Stirling, Trenton and Kingston to perform. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was no country music in Napanee and I was born and raised with country music and I love it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s classic country what we stick to, which is the older stuff. The people love it. We just decided to try it and it worked so we kept going,â&#x20AC;? said Curtis. The Hometown Country Jamboree is scheduled for the first (or second) Saturday of each month. Curtis said he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t plan on stopping any time soon and even have the Lionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hall booked up through to 2017. Proceeds from the jamboree go to the Salvation Army, with a larger food drive initiative done each winter. Curtis said he has a soft spot for the Salvation Army, since the organiza-
tion has helped him out when a fire in the 1970s destroyed all he had. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m kind of partial to them, because they helped me out years ago when my house burnt down. They were the first ones there with coffee and donuts for the firemen and for everybody else and they helped us out with clothing and stuff like that. So Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been partial to them ever since,â&#x20AC;? said Curtis. This past winter, the jamboreeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s food bank project raised over 1,000 pounds of non-perishable food to donate. The next Hometown Country Jamboree is scheduled for March 9. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the performances begin at 7 p.m. A bluegrass jamboree is also taking place this month, scheduled for March 24, also at the Lions Hall.
