As the fire near Fort McMurray, Alta., continues to grow, Greater Napanee council moved to send financial support to the city, contrary to a staff recommendation. Earlier this month, council received a letter from the Association of Municipalities of Ontario asking all municipalities to financially support Fort McMurray. Council turned to staff to bring forward a recommendation detailing how much, if any, the municipality could afford to send. On Tuesday at council’s regular meeting, staff brought forward a recommendation to council that did not include sending municipal funds for the Fort McMurray Relief Fund. “If there are no financial implications then obviously we’re not supporting it financially,” Ward 4 Councillor Carol Harvey said, questioning why the municipality isn’t supporting the cause. Deputy Mayor Marg Isbester said she was “disappointed” that the municipality would not be supporting Fort McMurray in some way. She moved that $500 be sent anyway and that those funds be sought out to be matched by the province. “I’m very disappointed that we aren’t at least putting something in the pot that will be matched and matched again. This is a terrible tragedy. It doesn’t make any difference whether it’s next door to us or miles away; I can’t believe that as a municipality we can’t somehow find (some funds),” said Isbester. She said even though local efforts have been made through fundraising projects held by the Greater Napanee Fire Services and local schools, she felt that support coming from the municipality should not be overlooked.

Napanee native loses battle with cancer BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

A very public fight with cancer came to an end for Napanee native William ‘B.J.’ Ketcheson. The 36-year-old husband and father of two children and former National Hockey League draft pick died at Belleville General Hospital on Sunday night. He’d been battling cancer since 2013. Over that period, his fight had been chronicled online on a Facebook page entitled ‘B.J.’s Battle’. Early Monday morning, accompanied by a sunset view from Ketcheson’s hospital room, a short message let all know that the battle was over. “Sunday May 22, 2016: 10:23 p.m. In a room filled with love and peace, Will went home to meet his creator.” He leaves behind a wife, Suzanna, and two children: Ellie, 4, and Ryder, 3. “B.J. was probably one of the nicest, politest guys you could meet,” his oldest brother, Brandon, told the Beaver on Tuesday morning. “He’d give the shirt off his back for you. He’d help anybody, it didn’t matter. He didn’t judge people. He had a lot of friends, and he was willing to help anyone. Just a stand-

up guy.” B.J. made headlines 20 years ago when he was drafted in the seventh round by the NHL’s Florida Panthers. In junior hockey, he spent three years playing for the Peterborough Petes of the Ontario Hockey league before being traded to the Mississauga Ice Dogs. Brandon says B.J. played minor hockey in Napanee before going on to play tripleA hockey with the Quinte Red Devils in minor peewee. He had been working as a carpenter in Belleville until his diagnosis in July, 2013. “He was optimistic at the start,” Brandon said, but added that B.J. knew he had a tough road ahead of him. “He was just going to try to do his best and try to be there for his kids for as long as he could. It was all about his kids and his family, more so than himself. He always put them first.” Since his diagnosis, the hockey community has been supportive of B.J.’s fight, Brandon said. That included a personal message from television hockey commentator Don Cherry, who delivered that message on CBC’s Coach’s Corner on April 28. However, B.J.’s story reached far beyond his circle of hockey acquaintances. On

the B.J.’s Battle page, Suzanne kept supporters up-to-date with details of her husband’s victories and setbacks. In turn, the wider community were given an opportunity to express their thoughts and send best wishes. Ultimately, that made a big difference for B.J., as well as his family, Brandon said. “It’s been great. It’s made it easier for the family, seeing how many lives he’s touched. It makes it a lot easier for us to say, ‘He did well, and he did a lot for a lot of people while he was here,’” he said. Brandon said B.J.’s faith was crucial to him as he confronted the deadly disease. “(His faith) basically got him through the three years. He really turned to the church and his community for support and that kind of helped him along for the last three years, more so than anything. He didn’t want to give up. He was a hell of a fighter,” he said. Visitation for B.J. will take place on June 3 at Parkdale Baptist Church in Belleville from 2-4 p.m. and 6-8 p.m. Following a visitation from noon until 1:45 p.m., a memorial service will be held at the church on June 4 at 2 p.m.

Submitted

William ‘B.J.’ Ketcheson played most of his OHL junior hockey career with the Peterborough Petes. He’d go on to be drafted by the Florida Panthers.

History with a bang at Bath’s Gunboat Weekend

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

History will come to life in Bath on June 10-12 during the Port of Bath Gunboat Weekend as the village travels back 200 years to a time when Canada — then a British colony — was at war with its American neighbours. Naturally, the village’s proximity to Lake Ontario and then military stronghold of Kingston made it both a vital asset for the British and strategic target for the Americans. That history will be explored during the educational weekend as a historically-accurate sailors’ encampment will be set up on the front lawn of the Fairfield Gutzeit House. “We’ll have a gentleman making sails, we’ll have someone cooking in the period, we’ll have people talking about the boats, the working vehicles of this time frame,” explains David Smith, a director with the Fairfield Gutzeit Society. “We’ll also have displays from the Royal Navy and the Provincial Marine, which were in this area in the 1790s to 1815s

period. It’s really about bringing to life that period over the course of the weekend.” The event gets underway on the Friday with an educational day, hosting students from schools all across the Limestone and Algonquin and Lakeshore boards. The students will have the opportunity to learn and practice some military drills from the time frame. Several other educational workshops will be running throughout the weekend. A total of 10 vessels are scheduled to dock in the village that weekend including the famous St. Lawrence II, the 72-foot brigantine is a training vessel, which spends its summers sailing the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River. It is a common site in Bath in the summer, making frequent visits to the Port of Bath Gunboat Weekend. “The other part of the weekend that will be big is we have our naval engagement on the bay at about dusk on Saturday evening, which is probably about 8:30 p.m. to 8:45 p.m.,” said Smith. “It’s always very popular because it’s the best firework display other than

Canada Day.” Following the skirmish there will be an old fashioned dance on the shore of the bay. On Sunday there will be a re-enactment of the famous scene when the Americans set fire to the Two Brothers ship in exchange for not attacking the village of Bath during the flight of the Royal George. “More recently we found out, as we suspected, that the Americans did in fact land physically on the shore here,” said Smith, who is also an avid historian. “They engaged the British, which were at the new school. The school was a year old, built in 1811. They found remnants over here at the Ham House of American infantry rounds as well as American infantry buttons. They suspect that they were seeking shelter in the foundation of what would become the Ham House.” The event got an unexpected boast just last week due to the impending closure of Kingston’s Marine Museum. While bad news for one museum, it was a boon for Bath’s Lafarge 1812 Discovery Centre, which has been loaned several artifacts pertinent to the village from the early 1800s while they sort out what to do with the rest of their displays. That means just in time for the June 10-12 weekend the centre will have several new displays including a large model of the Prince Regent, a 43-gun British frigate that was built in Kingston, a replica of the decks of the St. Lawrence,

which was the largest sailing vessel to ever sail the Great Lakes, an actual piece of the original ship which was recovered from the depths of Lake Ontario and several

original works of art from Peter Rindlisbacher, considered to be the most renowned marine artist of that time frame. For more information on

For Dr. Angela Moore, it is hard to believe that it is almost twenty years since she came to Lennox and Addington County just after receiving her Doctor of Optometry degree from the University of Waterloo in 1996. Growing up in a small town in Southwestern Ontario, Angela felt the towns of Napanee and Northbrook were a great place for her to start her career. Over the years she has had the pleasure to get to know many of the residents and their families. “I have been truly honoured to see children grow up into young adults in what seems like the blink of an eye. One minute I was fixing their glasses so they could see at their tee ball game and the next minute it seems they are off to college” said Angela. A few years ago, Angela’s interests in gardening and her love of animals led her and her husband to a small farm in Hastings County. With this she has come to the difficult decision to join a practice closer to home. “Saying goodbye to the patients has been the hardest part of this decision,” says Angela. “I am so thankful for their support over the years and I want to wish them all the best.”

Community Living L&A unveils new ‘hub’ BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

A new downtown space recently opened to allow Community Living Lennox and Addington clients another space to showcase their talents and learn to operate a downtown shop. ‘The Hub’ is the new downtown Community Living L&A space located at 27 Dundas St. West. It sells hand-crafted jewelry, artwork, woodworking, baked goods and Community Living’s specialty fudge, among other items, which are all made by individuals supported by Community Living. Friday marked The Hub’s grand opening but the shop has been operating downtown for about a month now with great success, said Barb Fabius, Community Living L&A executive director. “It’s Community Living Month across the province so it made sense for us to have the grand opening in the month of May.

We’re very excited to do this because it gives an area downtown to promote our individuals’ talents. It’s an ability to look at integrating our folks into the community,” said Fabius. “We have an opportunity for some of our folks to be working the cash register, interacting with customers. One of our young ladies has been trying to find what she’d like to do and with this opening up it’s just been an amazing fit for her. She’s been spending a lot of time here and she just loves it. She’s coming out of her shell just a bit more. It’s wonderful to see a boost in her confidence and it’s all about finding that sense of belonging,” Fabius explained. The Hub has three components: the front retail section, a private area for clients to socialize and relax, and finally a third private area for support staff to meet with individuals supported through Community Living. The Hub officially opened April 25 and held its grand opening on Friday. It is open Monday to Friday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Dr. Moore is pleased to pass the torch to Dr. Rachel Irwin, who joined her practice six years ago. Together they have worked to bring in the latest technology including Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) to improve patient care. They also joined the Eye See Eye Learn (ESEL) program supported by the Ontario Association of Optometrists, which provides a free pair of glasses to any junior kindergarten student that requires them. Rachel graduated from the New England College of Optometry (Boston, MA) in 2009. Originally from Sydenham, Ontario, she was happy to return closer to home and practice alongside Angela. Rachel officially took over ownership in October 2015 and gave the practice its new name, Napanee Family Eyecare. Being a mom of two, family is important to Rachel. She explains, “Practicing in a smaller town really allows you to get to know your patients and their families. I love being able to meet a new patient, and then seeing the rest of their family as patients as well.” Rachel is excited to announce the addition of Dr. Shelly Della Vedova to Napanee Family Eyecare. Shelly graduated from the Pacific University College of Optometry (Portland, OR) in 2008. The following year, she completed a Geriatric Optometry Residency at the Bedford Veteran’s Administration Hospital outside of Boston, MA. “Shelly has actually been with the practice part time since 2014, as she helped cover both of my maternity leaves” explains Rachel. “I am thrilled to have Shelly join the practice full time. Her extensive knowledge in ocular disease is a great asset to the team.” Napanee Family Eyecare is located at 100 Advance Avenue and the telephone number remains 613 354-7034. Dr. Irwin and Dr. Della Vedova are both accepting new patients. Visit their website www.napaneefamilyeyecare.ca to see what’s new and exciting at their clinic.

Picturing Our Community

Politics aren’t a contact sport Prime Minister Justin Trudeau had what was likely his roughest week so far since being elected last year — and it was rough in more than one sense of the word. When he strode across the aisle of the House of Commons to grab Conservative MP Gord Brown to take him to his seat — elbowing NDP MP RuthEllen Brosseau in the process — Trudeau was clearly in the wrong. He said as much in multiple apologies immediately following the incident, the next day in the House, on social media and elsewhere. His opponents, meanwhile, say that apologies aren’t enough. In fact, an all-party committee will investigate the incident. (The Speaker of the House Geoff Regan has determined that there is a prima facie case that the PM may have violated Brosseau’s parliamentary privilege.) So, we’re left wondering what the committee will decide. While we believe that the opposition, to a degree, is overblowing what happened, we’re not sure a few simple apologies are enough to truly make things right. The real offense, in our view, is Trudeau’s grabbing of Brown. When Trudeau made his way over to the opposition side of the aisle, Brown was being impeded from getting to his seat by a group of NDP MPs, including Brosseau. It appeared as though that ‘impediment’ wasn’t an accident, but an attempt to delay the workings of the House. (At the time, the opposition was, perhaps justifiably, miffed about the Liberals’ attempts to shut down debate on Bill C-14, the assisted dying bill.) So, Trudeau headed over to seemingly break the blockade and get things rolling again. In doing so, he grabbed Brown by the arm and hauled him through the NDP MPs — elbowing Brosseau in the process. Trudeau said the contact with Brosseau was an accident, and we accept that explanation. However, he should have never been over there in the first place. Further, laying his hands on a fellow MP in that context is simply unacceptable, particularly in the House of Commons. Opinion polls since the incident have suggest that Trudeau isn’t likely to suffer much political damage from what happened; he’s still riding high in popularity compared to the opposition. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that we should all wash our hands of what happened and move on. What occurred in the House of Commons was a serious breach and has to be unequivocally denounced. We don’t need to see Trudeau’s proverbial head on a pike, but in this instance, we need more than ‘I’m sorry.’ We’ll be interested in seeing if that all-party committee agrees with our assessment.

Manic for memoirs I’ve written about memoirs many times in this column simply because I love them. The narrative style of the memoir gives you the absorbing reading experience of fiction with the added bonus of learning about an interesting time in a real person’s life. The following books are the last five memoirs I have read – not all of them were my favorites, but they each provide the unique slice of life one looks for in a memoir. I Will Find You by Joanna Connors tells of the author’s experience investigating the life of her rapist of decades before. Yes, it is grim subject but Connors shows such bravery and empathy that her story becomes so much more than about her rape — it is about class, race, family violence and how trauma can mess us up for generations. It is a very intense, interesting read that might make you see the world differently. Alone against the North by Adam Shoalts was suggested to me by Julie, Readers’ Services Co-ordinator at the library. It is one of her favourite books so far this year. This is the story of Canada’s real-life Indiana Jones — a young man who spends his days exploring Canada’s uncharted wilderness on behalf of the Canadian Geographic Society. Shoalts comes across as a bit narcissistic in my opin-

ion, but he definitely has some interesting tales to tell! When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi is the author’s story of dying from terminal cancer at age 36. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, the next he was a patient struggling to live. A neurosurgeon by trade, Kalanithi has some very interesting perspec-

Catherine Coles Coles’ Notes tives on death and dying. Be forewarned, however, that some of the medical descriptions are not for those with weak stomachs. Sadly, the author passed away in the process of writing this book but it perfectly concluded with an affecting afterword by his wife. Girl in the Woods by Aspen Matis is the author’s story of growing up privileged and overprotected, getting raped her first day at university and then deciding to assert her independence by completing a solo hike of the Pacific Crest Trail. The PCT runs from Mexico to Canada — completing such a journey is no easy feat — but Matis manages to do it and heals herself in the process. Girl in the Woods is a bit too long and the author’s naivety is often irritating but her writ-

ing is beautiful, if not slightly overwritten, and the subject matter makes it a good read-alike for the muchloved Wild by Cheryl Strayed. No Baggage by Clara Bensen tells of the author’s experience traveling from Istanbul to London without any luggage, concrete plans or hotel reservations. She has nothing with her but her new, freewheeling yet skittish not-quite-boyfriend, Jeff. Donning a single dress and a small purse with her toothbrush and credit card, Bensen travels through eight countries in three weeks. She writes about the advantages and disadvantages of travel unencumbered, but also about falling in love against a backdrop of uncertainty.

A look back at The Star Weekly The Star Weekly was first published by The Toronto Star in April 1910, as a counterpart to such periodicals as The New York Times Magazine. It was both a supplement to the newspaper itself, and sold as a separate publication elsewhere in Canada. For many years it came out in the form of newsprint, initially in black and white. But, by the early 1920s, colours made their way onto the cover, but occasionally throughout the journal as well. For the first 50 years it was comprised of digests of the weekly news taken from daily papers, plus a ‘magazine’ section. By the late 1950s it was reduced to the tabloid form alone. From the very beginning it featured a variety of topics: politics, world news, entertainment, sports, and human interest items, Regardless of the theme, it leaned heavily on photographs and illustrations. Publisher J.E. Atkinson insisted upon first-rate quality writers, so it is not surprising that one of his prime contributors was Ernest Hemingway. Gregory Clark was also engaged in the feature entries, and by the 1940s he

The zany cast of characters was headed by Archie, the Centre’s leading citizen, and his wife Emmy. When Frise quit the Star and moved to The Montreal Herald, the magazine replaced the long-standing series with ‘Rural Route’. Elmer (always on bib overalls) and his wife Myrtle were prime members of the cast. Walter Ball romanticized the simple everyday experiences and misadventures of downto-earth country bumpkins. By 196,7 ‘Nipper’, a bald, Dennis-the-Menace type boy, stepped into the cartoon spotlight. Shortly thereafter it was renamed ‘Doug Wright’s Family’, a take-off on the creator’s own home situation. Hollywood starlets, members of the Royal Family, dogs and cats, and youngsters who resembled the Campbell Soup Kids, graced the glossy covers. As the famous tabloid neared the end of its history, the format eventually gave way to graphics reflecting the main stories within. The last issue was published in 1973.

Cottage decorating tips With this warmer weather finally here, many of us have opened up the cottage for the summer and taken in the hot sun these last few days. It seems many of us have spent the long weekend at the cottage or cabin, or enjoyed the weekend camping. I, however, was not as lucky, but I did spend every second outside with family and friends enjoying the splendour of the warm weather. We don’t all need to have a vacation home to enjoy the look. Cottage style décor encompasses the relaxed and informal living of the beach, country, or rural retreat. Cottage style décor is reminiscent of vacation homes and small tucked away cabins that are no fuss, and all about leisure and a slower paced lifestyle. You can achieve this look in your home with the following touches to bring cottage style décor into your favorite spaces. Whether it’s summer or winter, who doesn’t love laidback interiors to come home to? COLOURS: While there can be many colours and patterns in a cottage style setting, it’s a good idea to have a unifying theme. We all think of cottage style home near the shore, with lots of whites, neutrals, and colors inspired by the beach as in soft blues and sandy beiges. Sun-bleached hues of blues, and greens give a sense of weathered interiors. Cottage inspired décor looks like it has been there for years. Choose colors that are muted, and consider using faux finishes that look white-washed. Cabinetry, furniture, and walls will also take on the patina of aged beauty. Varying hues of tans, beiges, and whites give a crisp and relaxing atmosphere that cottage style living is all about. Use beadboard and wainscoting

to give interior walls the look and feel of a cottage. FURNITURE: Minimal detailing and mix-and-match furniture is the heart of cottage décor. Furniture is often recycled, purchased from a flea market, or collected from family rejects. Nothing really needs to match — and it shouldn’t — yet the overall effect is charming and comfortable. Pieces are

Merola Tahamtan Design Time often adapted from one use to another. For example, an old kitchen cupboard can hide towels in a bathroom, or a kitchen table might become a desk. Chairs, tables, cabinetry and kitchen islands can be low maintenance with simple styling. Use slipcovers over couches and chairs in living areas to bring in the colors and textures that are low maintenance and beckon to relax in them. Wood is a favorite for cottage style décor because of its traditional beginnings. The cottage style dates back to craftsmen and artisans designing and building their own homes and furnishings. If using new furniture, distressing techniques will make furniture look worn, but comfortable and cozy. FLOORING: Flooring in Cottage style homes are often informal and even imperfect. Bare wood floors are a good option. New wood can be made to look old and painted floors can have patterns stenciled on, either to add interest or define areas. Raw planks can be covered with vintage braided

rugs. Wall-to-wall carpet can be either too perfect for this style yet tile is OK. Covering any type of flooring with vintage area rugs is another way to get the cottage look. LIGHTING: Collectibles can easily be adapted into lighting fixtures by installing inexpensive lamp parts. Turn an old jug, or tin into a one of a kind lamp. Not sure you want to tackle wiring a lamp? Take a vintage find to a lamp store where you have it adapted to your need for a minimal expense. The more unusual your item, the more fun you’ll have looking at it when it’s electrified with a cute shade. FABRICS: Cottage décor usually calls for a mix of fabrics used for slipcovers, upholstery, curtains, draperies, tableskirts, pillows and more. Co-ordinate a variety of prints like florals, stripes, checks, and plaids for a collected look. Slipcovered furniture is also very popular in a cottage look, offering relaxed and easily updated furnishings. STORAGE AND DISPLAY: Open shelving, pots, baskets, and urns are popular for storage and display. Cottage style décor focuses on light and airy interiors. To achieve this, storage and display items are easy to find items that would be found in the country, farmhouse, or beach home. Heavy, dark storage furniture will overpower the space, and feel clunky and out of character. Instead use open shelving made from natural pine or oak. Garage and antique sales are perfect places to find creative storage ideas. Someone’s old pine bookshelf may be a perfect accent for your cottage décor.

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 50 Years Ago May 25, 1966

n A Toronto engineering firm was being contracted to develop plans for a new water and sewer system for the Town of Deseronto. The project would be financed by the Ontario Water Resources Commission, with the cost of the project being charged back to the town and any other involved municipalities on a pro-rated basis. The Toronto firm of Hisey and Barrington would develop a plan to meet the water and sewer needs for Deseronto. Once those plans are forwarded to OWRC, staff at the agency would develop a rate based on usage and submit a proposal to Deseronto for a provincially-financed system. n Ernestown Township was about to look into the creation of a new reservoir for the village of Odessa. The Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority was informed that it was approved for a $10,000 grant to allow for the preliminary work to be done to discern whether a reservoir on Millhaven Creek would be feasible. That reservoir, if approved, would be a municipal water source for the village.

30 Years Ago May 28, 1986

n Federal Agriculture Minister John Wise was the keynote speaker at a fundraising dinner for the local Progressive Conservative riding association in Napanee. Wise acknowledged that 1985 was one of the toughest years in half a century for Canadian farmers, but added that the new PC government of Brian Mulroney was taking action to help farmers confront those ongoing difficulties. He noted that at a recent international summit in Tokyo, Mulroney cited agriculture as Canada’s main priority. He also pointed to the ongoing decline in interest rates as being good news for farmers. n A majority of Napanee’s 13 doctors were intending to take part in a two-day strike to protest the proposed provincial ban on extra billing. Dr. Paul Kenny, the president of the L&A Medical Society, said that no doctors in Napanee were currently engaging in any extra billing, and no doctors were planning to start, but they weren’t interested in giving up that right in the future. “It will set the stage for complete government control of all aspects of medical care,” he argued. He said that, in cases of emergency, the doctors would make themselves available.

The Corporation of the Town of Greater Napanee Public Notice of Intention to Amend Designation By-law No. 01-56 for the Martin and Empey Hill Cemetery

The Council of the Town of Greater Napanee intends to amend By- law No. 01-56 - a by-law to designate the Martin and Empey Hill Cemetery to be of historic value or interest, under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. O.18, adopted on September 24, 2001. The purpose of the proposed amendment is to add more detail to the heritage designation and to include pictures.

The following information is proposed to be added to By-law No. 01-56: 1. Schedule “A” of Town of Greater Napanee By-law 01-56 as Amended Legal Description: Property Assessment Roll Number: 1121-070-040-22199-0000 Part Lot 5, Concession 4, being Parts 3 and 5 on Reference Plan 29R7197, geographic Township of Richmond, known municipally as 1057 Beechwood Road, in the Town of Greater Napanee. 2. Schedule “B” of Town of Greater Napanee By-law No. 01-56 as Amended Description of Property The Martin and Empey Hill Pioneer Cemetery is a 2.2 hectare plot of land at 1057 Beechwood Road, approximately 1.7 km east of Deseronto Road in the former Township of Richmond. A 106m long unmetalled track follows a right-of-way north from Beechwood Road to give access across a field to the cemetery lot. The burial plot, approximately 23.5m by 38.5m in area, is fenced and set in a wooded area. Statement of Cultural Heritage Value The Township Of Richmond Was Settled By Families primarily from England, Ireland and Scotland. The Martin and Empey Hill Pioneer Cemetery contains grave markers for some of the early settlers of homesteads in the vicinity of Empey Hill. (i) Design and Physical Value Most of the headstones in the Martin and Empey Hill Pioneer Cemetery remain in their original locations, with placement and orientation typical of 19th century Euro-Canadian burial practices. The limestone, marble and granite grave markers are in tablet, block and obelisk form, and bear inscriptions having motifs and content representative of the period. The cemetery site is far from Beechwood Road and is secluded in a wooded area that provides a tranquil setting appropriate to the spiritual aspect of a cemetery. (ii) Historical and Associative Value The Martin and Empey Hill Pioneer Cemetery was initially the burial ground of the Solmes family, to whom the 200-acre Lot 5 was originally granted. Richard Solmes registered the patent for the Crown Grant in 1847, but the family had been on the lot for more than a decade before that date. The earliest known burial at the site took place in 1833 when Catherine Solmes, Richard's mother, was interred there. In 1853 the north part of the Lot 5 was sold to the Martin family. The south part remained in the hands of the Solmes family until 1870 when the deed for the Solmes burial plot was transferred to the trustees of the Episcopal Methodist Church, on the neighbouring Lot 6. The rest of the Solmes' Lot 5 was sold to the Martins. Prior to the establishment of the Episcopal Methodist Church, the community was served by the Wesleyan Methodist Church at Empey Hill, just to the west on Lot 1. The burial ground and both churches appear on the 1878 Illustrated Historical Atlas of the Counties of Frontenac, Lennox & Addington. Parishioners from both churches are buried in the cemetery. With the Methodist Church Union, the Episcopal Methodist Church was closed in 1884. When the church was sold in 1888 the legal use and custody of the cemetery was transferred to the Methodist Church at Empey Hill. While there remains no trace of the Episcopal Methodist Church that once stood near the cemetery, the Empey Hill United Church, which replaced the original Wesleyan Methodist Church in 1912, continues to sit atop Empey Hill, a good two kilometres from the cemetery. The last known burial in the Martin and Empey Hill Pioneer Cemetery occurred in 1907 with the internment of N. Solmes. In all, 36 tombstones mark the graves of 49 of the early settlers of Richmond Township. The cemetery also contains an unknown number of unmarked graves. The families most heavily represented in at the site are Solmes, Martin, and Spencer - all settlers on the lots surrounding the cemetery. Other families well represented in the cemetery are Brown, Forshee, Ross, Tulloch, Wittington, and Windover. The cemetery was abandoned and by 2001 it had become heavily overgrown. That summer volunteers led a team in clearing brush from the

site and several of the headstones were professionally restored. A chainlink fence was installed enclosing the plot and an arched metal overhead sign was erected at the entrance, identifying the site as the “Empey Hill Cemetery”. In September of 2001 the Martin and Empey Hill Pioneer Cemetery was designated under the Ontario Heritage Act. A plaque just inside the cemetery tells the history of the cemetery, and documents the efforts taken to preserve the site. Summary: The history of the Martin and Empey Hill Pioneer Cemetery is typical of many small rural cemeteries. Its value lies in being characteristic of how such sites transition from the private use of a single family, to supporting other families in the neighbourhood, through abandonment and finally to the recognition of its significance to the broader community. The grave markers themselves give precise genealogical detail for people interred at the site and hint at some of the hardships of life for those early settlers of the region. (iii) Contextual Value As the final resting place of the Township of Richmond’s earliest residents, the grave sites of the members of these British, Irish and Scottish settlers make the Martin and Empey Hill Pioneer Cemetery a representative example of a rural pioneer cemetery. Not only does the cemetery have spiritual value as the burial site of an indeterminate number of 19th and early 20th century Euro-Canadians, but it also represents the contribution made by these early settlers to the development of Township of Richmond. Description of Heritage Attributes The cemetery's heritage attributes derive from the archaeological, built heritage, and cultural heritage landscape values associated with this 19th century Euro-Canadian pioneer cemetery. Attributes requiring protection from removal, disturbance, or unsympathetic or inappropriate alteration are listed by feature category. Archaeological Resources and Areas of Archaeological Potential: • features and artifacts related to the original organization of the cemetery • human remains contained within the cemetery • remaining sub-surface funerary artifacts Built Heritage Features: • grave markers, including limestone, marble and granite headstones and monuments in the tablet, block and obelisk styles, exhibiting a variety of size, icons, motifs and inscriptions • a layout that retains the original placement and orientation of the grave markers, representative of 19th century Euro-Canadian burial practices • a 21st century limestone pedestal supporting a plaque giving a brief history of the cemetery • a 21st century metal arched overhead entrance sign Cultural Heritage Landscape Features: • grassed areas within the cemetery • a mature tree within the cemetery • well-defined boundary markers delineating the cemetery • a site distinguished by its secluded location in a grove of trees on a slight knoll Notice of Objection Notice of an objection to the proposed by-law amendment may be served on the Town Clerk within 30 days of the date of this notice, which is June 20, 2016. The notice must set out the reason(s) for the objection and all relevant facts. More Information Further information is available from the Town Clerk’s Office.

Man charged with sexual assault, child luring Beaver Staff

A Napanee man is facing charges of sexual assault and other offenses following an investigation by Napanee OPP dating back to April. According to a press release issued by the Napanee OPP, police began their probe after receiving a report of a young female being assaulted last month. On May 6, the OPP arrested a 52-yearold man following their investigation.

FORT MAC FROM PAGE 1 “Can we not come up with at least $500, which turns into $1,500 if it’s met their standard? Just to say, ‘We don’t like what you’re going through, we know you would help us in some way,’” said Isbester, moving her motion. Harvey seconded it and council carried the motion. Ward 1 Councillor Mike Schenk said he originally supported to simply receive the report from staff because he felt taxpayers have already donated to the cause and should not be forced to support Fort McMurray a second time through taxpayer dollars. “If you want to take that $500 and you want everybody on council to chip in? I don’t have a problem with that. I’ll chip in

Gregory Frederick Vautrin of Napanee has been charged with two counts of sexual interference with a person under 16 years of age, one count of sexual assault on a person under 16 years of age, one count of luring a person under 16 years of age by means of telecommunication, and one count of invitation to sexual touching with a person under 16 years of age. The accused was held in custody pending the outcome of a bail hearing in Napanee. again. But to take taxpayers money and go ahead and do it again, when they already did (donate)…” Schenk said, adding that his “heart goes out to” those in Fort McMurray. Ward 5 Councillor Shaune Lucas agreed that the $500 should be split among council members and offered to write a cheque for his portion. In the end, Isbester’s motion that the municipal budget cover the $500 stood. GNFS Fire Chief Kevin Donaldson said the fire department was able to raise $4,800 over the weekend for the Fort McMurray Relief Fund. A boot drive was held Friday evening as well as a lemonade stand Saturday morning at the fire hall. Donaldson said the government would match the $4,800 raised locally.

Scouter Brian Gill teaches members of the First Napanee Valley Scouting group about fire safety at a scouts training session on the weekend.

Napanee Scouts planning for busy summer

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

Scouts Canada offers survival and adventure skills for youth and Napanee’s local club has a number of camping and day adventure trips planned for this summer. The First Napanee Valley Scouting Group currently has 11 scout members ages 11-14, with members travelling from Picton and Deseronto to participate in the program. Clubs are offered to youth ages five to 18 and leadership opportunities are available for those still interested in the program after the age of 18. First Napanee Valley Scouting Group commissioner Matt Clancy said it’s a program that offers skills youth will remember and use throughout their entire lives and it’s education they’ll enjoy. “It’s a lot of fun. It’s outdoor adventuring; we go camping, we do day hikes, all kinds of things. It’s a service organization, so we do various helpful things throughout the community, as we’re needed,” said Clancy. Scouts is a hands-on program that lets the children and youth run the program in order to suit the needs of their group and community. “One of the key things is it’s a youth-led program, so the youth get to decide what they want to do,” said Clancy. “Part of the trick is you let them decide what they want to do and enable them to overcome obstacles to be able to do it and it’s education that

looks like play, so they get to do both.” He said Scouts Canada programming compliments children’s school curriculum well, and gives them an opportunity to grow in ways they might not have otherwise had the opportunity to do. “It’s really a characterbuilding program. It supplements school-based education and teaches them to become better people. It gives them life skills and confidence,” said Clancy. Some of the First Napanee Valley Scouting Group met Saturday south of Napanee for training in saws, axes,

matches and fire starting. Clancy said the training would allow the scouts to be more hands-on this summer during Scouts camping and day trips. “They’ve demonstrated that they can use their saws and axes safely in front of us so we’ll give them a permit that shows that they’re able to handle those tools,” said Clancy. Those looking to get involved in the First Napanee Valley Scouting Group can find more information online at www.scouts.ca or contact Clancy at: mclancy@gmail.com or 613888-0664.

HCTH puts focus on educational opportunities

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

Local outreach agency Helping Cope Through Hope is aiming to help more students in impoverished communities in Africa and Peru pursue post-secondary education. Tom and Cheryl Martin, of HCTH, have been running outreach sponsorships for kids and families in Peru, Zambia and Uganda for over a decade. Now that many of those sponsored children are growing up, they are moving their focus to allow those sponsorships to go beyond

high school and into postsecondary. “These kids that we help all the way through, they become part of us. If they only have high school, really, they’re going to be exploited. They’re like our own family,” said Tom. He said helping students go to university and college is another aspect that sets HCTH apart from other sponsorship agencies. “One lady that came to us said, ‘I was with another organization and they just contacted me and said: your child is 18 now, you’re finished.’ My reaction to that was ‘No! That is so wrong,’”

said Tom. “How can you sponsor a child for 12 or 15 years and then at 18, when they’re in their last year of high school, how can you say, ‘Sorry, we’re done with you’?” This past year Tom and Cheryl were able to enroll 16 students into university and seven into college and they have another seven ready to start post-secondary next year. “The problem with that is it becomes very expensive but we’ve been really, really fortunate,” said Tom. “We really can’t help them all, we depend on other people to help us.” To sponsor a post-secondary student, it costs about

$2,000 a year, compared to primary and secondary sponsorship costs of $400 a year. However, Tom and Cheryl encourage people to just continue their regular sponsorships, or pay what they can to sponsor someone through post-secondary, and the rest can be made up through other donations and sponsorships. “We have one woman who sponsors three children. One of them is in university now so she just keeps paying her $400 sponsorship and then we have another person in Napanee that supports the rest of that cost,” Cheryl explained.

Others have sought out Tom and Cheryl for the sole reason to sponsor someone through post-secondary education. Tom said one man contacted him and Cheryl after reading an article in The Napanee Beaver and asked to sponsor a student through university. “He said, ‘I’ve kept this article and my wife and I have been thinking about it and we’d like to send somebody to university.’ So they’re sending a girl in Zambia to nursing. And they didn’t know us at all before,” Tom said, thankful for all the continued support HCTH receives. Currently HCTH sponsors about 150 kids and students throughout Peru, Zambia and Uganda. “It’s really personal. They become part of our family. They’re not a number; they’re not a nameless face. The kids going to university — Dennis, David, Patricia, Stedius, Rita, Joan — they all have a story. People ask us about their child and we can tell them: well her moth-

er is HIV-positive, doesn’t work, it’s really difficult at home, she’s is going to a new school. You would never get that from any big organization. They would never come to your house and say, ‘We just want to tell you about your sponsor child,’” Tom explained. Cheryl said part of the reason why they become so attached and so well informed about each of the kids and families they help is because they’re all so “needy” and completely rely on their sponsorships. “They’re more needy than even our own family. They need to have schooling, they need to have their needs met: their food, clothes. They rely on us,” said Cheryl. “They call us mom and dad, and just like a good mother and father would help them,” Tom added.

Programs aimed at improving river shoreline

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

An environmental program provided through the Bay of Quinte Remedial Action Plan might be of interest to those living along the Napanee River. According to a press release issued by L&A Stewardship Council, people can get financial help to improve their shorelines and, in turn, improve water quality. Landowners and farmers can benefit from the funding from the BQRAP. Sarah Midlane-Jones is a part of the BQRAP and said that the plan offers different shoreline programs to improve the water quality. “The Bay of Quinte Remedial Action offers several shoreline programs: the Land Lease Program, Health Soils Check-up Program and the Habitat Enhancement Program. All these programs are designed to encourage landowners to implement projects, through cost-sharing incentives, that will improve water quality in the Bay of Quinte,” said Jones. Jones said that the options being offered to farmers are a minimum 10metre buffer zone being cre-

ated on the shoreline, letting it grow naturally. The second option is hay being grown in the buffer, with no grazing or phosphates allowed. She said that each operation makes it easier for farmers to establish a buffer zone. All of the options are designed to prevent soil erosion, provide wildlife habitat and reduce phosphorus runoff. Each project is different and the amount of work and the cost varies for each option, according to Jones. “Each project is different and the amount of work involved depends on a number of factors. For example, how much area is being turned into a buffer zone? Does the area need to be fenced? Is the landowner planning on doing some planting? Again the cost varies for each project — our cost-sharing programs do help farmer and landowners with a percentage of the cost and we also provide technical advice,” said Jones. All of the programs that are offered go towards helping improve water quality in the Bay of Quinte, which are the sources of drinking water for a lot of people, everyone benefits, according to Jones. Jones made it clear that everybody has a role in maintaining the water qual-

ity in the bay. “Whether it’s restoring your own shoreline, using non-phosphorus fertilizer, installing permeable pavers on your walkway or driveway, being aware of what goes down the storm sewer because it does go into the nearest body of water

untreated, or talking to your local politicians and municipalities about actions to keep the Bay a healthy and vibrant ecosystem — maintaining water quality in the Bay is everyone’s responsibility,” said Jones. According to the press release, the Lennox and

Addington Stewardship Council “supports this program as a good step towards engaging landowners to protect and enhance their own properties, thus helping to improve the overall quality of the waterfront they live on.” The goal of this is to preserve the natural shore-

lines, along the Napanee River. Benefits to this project are flood protection and reduced phosphorus (poisonous, combustible nonmetal) runoff. You can find out more information about BQRAP stewardship programs by going to www.bqrap.ca.

Regi overpowers NDSS Jr. Hawks to take KASSAA Panthers earn 29-19 victory BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

acing off against the heavily-favoured Regi Panthers in Thursday’s KASSAA finals, the NDSS Golden Hawks junior boys rugby team at least kept it interesting. In the end the Panthers proved too much for the Hawks, posting a 29-19 victory on the turf surface of Queen’s University’s Nixon Field, earning their third consecutive KASSAA title. “It was close, after (Regi) got out to a bit of a lead we got back into it,” said Hawks head coach Brad Melville. “(The Hawks) were unlucky (after just missing a try to close out the first half), but the other side played good rugby today. It was an entertaining game, it was good fun.” Early in the game it appeared as those the Hawks might be in way over their head, surrendering a

pair of tries and a penalty kick to fall behind 15-0 midway through the first half. Brad Baker had a response for the Hawks, dragging three defenders with him as he inched his way over the try-line to get the Hawks on the board. Eli Brown kicked the convert to cut the Panther lead to 157. Napanee kept the pressure on late in the half, getting to within a few yards of another try, but ultimately couldn’t bust through the Panthers’ defense. “It was a slow start,” Melville said of the opening half. “But once they got into the groove of the game they played much better.” The two sides would trade tries in the second half with Regi scoring a quick one shortly after the opening kick, only to be matched by one from Zack Wheeler who quickly scooped up the ball after Baker had got it to within five yards of the line. NDSS came close to scoring a second straight try but a breakdown about 15 yards out led to a turnover, which Regi used to run nearly the

think about. In the end they would maintain their composure long enough to hold off the Hawk offense and hoist the KASSAA trophy at midfield. For reaching the finals the Hawks were awarded silver medals. “They got a taste of it now so they know what they’re doing,” Melville said of the Hawks reaching the finals. “They’ll be better for it next year and be one year older and stronger and just having that knowledge of what to do is a big thing.” Meanwhile, in Arnprior, the NDSS Golden Hawks girls rugby team finished their season by taking part in a four-team EOSSAA tournament, with a shot at OFSAA on the line. Napanee would finish second at the tournament falling short in the finals. They bested St. Thomas Aquinas 33-17 in the semifinals before losing to the Adam Prudhomme-Staff host Arnprior team 43-0 in Cal Doyle prevents a Regi ballcarrier from advancing with a clean tackle dur- the tournament finals. For Arnprior it was their fifth ing Thursday’s KASSAA finals.

Lots to see for L&A SOS home and garden tour BY REBA PENNELL

Special to the Beaver

Reba Pennell

Eight homes and gardens, including this one near Odessa, will be open to the public during next weekend’s tour.

Lennox and Addington Seniors Outreach Services will be holding its annual ‘Beyond the Doors’ Home and Garden Tour next weekend. The tour takes place June 4 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. This is the 19th year L&A SOS has hosted the fundraising event. Eight homes across Napanee, Newburgh and Odessa will be featured. Ruth Graham, co-ordinator for the event, said that the homes being featured are

NOTICE OF STUDY COMMENCEMENT Class Environmental Assessment Detail Design for the Structural Rehabilitation of the Odessa Road Bridge (Old Wilton Road) over Highway 401 (G.W.P. 4173-13-00) THE PROJECT The Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO) has retained the services of McIntosh Perry Consulting Engineers (McIntosh Perry) to carry out a Detail Design and Environmental Assessment Study for the rehabilitation of the Odessa Road (Old Wilton Road) Underpass on Highway 401, in Loyalist Township (Geographic Township of Ernestown), County of Lennox and Addington, as shown on the key map below.

remarkable. “Two houses range from custom designed and built newer homes, and six of the homes are 19th century heritage properties that have been lovingly restored,” said Graham. L&A receives recommendations over the year about interesting properties. Richard Campbell and Keltie Jones’ home, located in Odessa, is one of the homes that will be featured. Campbell and Jones have a half-acre garden that they take care of themselves. The home was built in the 1885, originally a Continuation school until 1948. Campbell and Jones have owned the home since 2001, and moved in once the renovations were completed in 2004. They restored it from the ground up, keeping some gems from the time it was a school. People who are interested in the event must purchase a ‘passport’ that gives them access to the houses. The passports are $25 each and include a map for their self-guided tour. Before going into each home, guests must have their passport checked by a volunteer

guide. Guests are asked to be respectful of the homes and take off their shoes when they enter. There are also no pets allowed. Passports for children six to 12 costs $12 and children under 5 are free but must be well supervised. No photographs can be taken inside the house but outside the house is permitted. While in the homes, people are not allowed to touch any items inside. Volunteers are on hand to guide people through the homes and give tours. They are also there to answer any questions that one may have. More than 200 participants are expected to attend the tours. Graham said that passports are already selling fast so she encourages people to purchase them quickly. Graham said that all proceeds will be going towards assisting with funding for all SOS programs. Passports are available now and can be purchased either at the L&A SOS office at 12 Richmond Park Drive in Napanee or at the IDA Drug store.

COMMUNITY PULSE

The existing structure has experienced deterioration and requires major rehabilitation to ensure long-term safe access of Odessa Road. Two options are being considered as possible strategies to manage traffic during construction. The options include: • Two-stage construction that directs two-way traffic on a single lane across the bridge with temporary traffic signals; and • Temporary full bridge closure with a detour route. THE PROCESS The detail design is following an approved planning process under the Class Environmental Assessment for Provincial Transportation Facilities (2000) for a Group “C” project. This will include an assessment of potential impacts of the highway improvements on the study area environment and address any concerns raised during the consultation process. An Environmental Screening Document will be prepared detailing the existing biophysical and socio-economic environment, summary of design features, potential impacts of the undertaking, and required mitigation measures. Construction is anticipated to take place in the 2017 construction season funding dependant. COMMENTS

kitchen is the perfect place to add modern marble or granite counters, paired with cottage inspired cabinetry. Modern stainless steel appliances paired with weathered pine flooring, and farmhouse sinks with brushed nickel or copper fixtures is gorgeous. Cottage dĂŠcor can inspire you to live a more relaxed and laid back lifestyle. A cottage is meant to be lived in, to be enjoyed, and is usually the recipient of all the cast-offs from the real home. But cottage furnishings and accessories have grown in popularity in recent years. Enjoy the relaxed feel of cottage dĂŠcor in your home. Merola Tahamtan is an Interior Stylist in Home & Business Design, Home Staging, Painting, Colour Consultation, Organization and Window Treatments. You can reach her at 613-561-0244 or merolatahamtandesigns@liv e.ca. R0 013211837

ACCESSORIES: Any odd thing can serve as an accessory in a cottage style home, so be on the lookout wherever you go. Charming plates, old hats, musical instruments, interesting frames and heirloom samplers become the center of attention in a comfortable cottage room. Antique shops, tag sales, auctions, and grandmaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attic all reveal a treasure trove of items both useful and decorative. WINDOW TREATMENTS: Cottage dĂŠcor is informal; window treatments should look light and airy. Consider sheers instead of opaque panels or heavy drapes. For privacy, if you need it, pick simple shades that can hide away during the day. When privacy is not an issue the windows can be left bare. MIXING DECORS: Try combining modern materials coupled with cottage dĂŠcor â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the results can be beautiful! The

boarding and a beach volleyball tournament. â&#x20AC;&#x153;New this year, there is a canoe tug of war challenge; we also have rides on a 32foot canoe as well. We also have this group called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Go Activeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and they are coming to do stand-up paddle boarding. So, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll show demonstrations, but they want to encourage people to come out and participate,â&#x20AC;? said Hallam. Before the Riverfront Festival, Napanee had a Multicultural Festival that has now been integrated into this new, bigger festival. Hallam said that the multicultural aspect includes a variety of things. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are Irish dancers, Chinese dancers, Spanish dancers, Celtic music, African drums, a man dancing on broken bottles, eating fire, the traditional stuff,â&#x20AC;? said Hallam.

TANKLESS HOME HEATING HEA TING SYSTEM With a thermal efficiency of up to 97%,, this matched 97% combo offers a real â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;green solutionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; that can dramatically lower home heating costs.

Hallam said that the festhe sponsors has been what makes the event free for everybody to enjoy. As for the future, the hope is to have the event grow even more. This year the festival is a bit bigger with the addition of Art in the Park. This portion of the festival focuses on 32 different artists showcasing their talents. Hallam said that, as for the future, new ideas for the event are always welcome.

Bakers Gardening

Signs of a healthy garden and soil pon first glance, a garden may appear to be the picture of health. However, further examination may reveal that the garden isn't all that it seems, and perhaps that healthy facade is artificially manufactured. Chemical fertilizers and an abundance of water may temporarily boost the appearance of a garden, but gardens need more than a quick fix to maintain long-term health. The following are a handful of indicators that a garden has established itself and is likely to maintain its health for years to come. * Earthworms: The presence of earthworms in the garden and surrounding soil indicates a healthy garden. Earthworms are essential to healthy plants because they aerate the soil by channeling through it. These channels enable rain to soak into the soil and air to reach roots. Earthworms, through their castings, also add important nutrients to soil. Dig a few inches into the garden. If you find an abundance of earthworms, it is a good indication that all is well. * Water infiltration: Take a glass of water and pour it onto the soil of the garden. If it takes five seconds or less for the soil to absorb the water, then that soil is probably doing well. However, soil that can't soak up that water may be having problems, or there may be problems on the horizon. Those problems will likely manifest themselves when the temperatures begin to rise. * Foliage color and growth: A plant leaf can tell a lot about the health of a plant. Shriveled or pale leaves could be indicative of a problem. If the plant looks sickly, soil might need to be modified or the problem may lie inside of the plant itself. Take a clipping of a poorly growing plant and place it in a glass of water. If the water becomes cloudy or milky, there may be a bacterial problem. If the water remains clear, the plant may have a virus. The presence of fuzz or hairs growing on leaves could indicate the presence of a fungus. * Plant residue: The presence of stubble or leftover plant particles from previous plantings helps the soil retain moisture and suppress weeds. This material also can prevent erosion. It's good to have some residual plant matter in your soil. If the soil is too "clean," it may not be as

healthy as you think. * Flowers: Certainly there are low-maintenance plants that do not produce flowers, but relying only on these plants in your garden can prove troublesome over the long haul. Bees, birds and butterflies are attracted to sweet, flowering plants. These animals and insects are essential to pollination, and without them the garden cannot procreate. A thriving garden is one that has a mix of plants, including some flowering varieties that will keep birds, butterflies and bees coming back again and again. * Minimal weeds: If the only thing you're growing is weeds, then there is a problem in the garden. Weeds tend to be more tolerant of poor soil conditions and can quickly take over and force other plants out. Planting ground cover and using mulch is a natural way to keep weeds at bay. You may need to do some manual work on your hands and knees and pull out weeds as well. The fewer the weeds, the more likely your plants will grow tall and full. Signs of a healthy garden include the presence of beneficial insects and good color and plant growth.
