Stone Mills Township

Local company pioneers fire suppressor Council FireRein Eco-Gel knocks down flames quickly, with no environmental impact BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

A Napanee-based company could be on the verge of revolutionizing the way fires are fought. FireRein Eco-Gel is an environmentally-friendly, non-toxic substance that, when added to water, can extinguish a fire faster, using less water and creating less runoff in the process. It can also be used to coat flammable material to prevent it from catching fire. FireRein officials showed off the gel in a series of demonstrations at the Loyalist Township fire training area near Odessa on Friday. After extinguishing a fire with water, they knocked down an identical fire using the Eco-Gel additive. Later, they used the gel to extinguish an ‘industrial’ fire involving a flammable substance, then demonstrated its fire-prevention properties by applying a blowtorch to a piece of wood that

had been sprayed with the gel. According to FireRein’s president Quincy Emmons — a volunteer firefighter with the Stone Mills Fire Department for nearly two decades — it has taken about three years to develop the Eco-Gel, as well as the mixing device that adds the gel to water at the truck or the hydrant. “Right now, we’re going to move forward with certification. We’re about two to three months away from certification, and once we hit that, we can move into municipal fire departments, industrial firefighting, (and) home protection. We have a lot of avenues that we’ve already had people reach out and express interest in,” he said. The Eco-Gel offers a number of advantages when it comes to putting fires out, the first of which is that the gel is completely environmentally-friendly. “‘Environmentally-friendly’ means different things to different people, so let me be clear:

our product is 100 per cent food grade. It’s food. It’s the same things that are in your ketchups or your ice creams or anything else you’re buying in the store. It couldn’t be more safe,” said FireRein’s chief fire operations advisor Peter Sells. When fighting fires, the water or foams being used will run off, either into storm sewers or into the environment, Sells explained. “Most of the other products on the market are doing an excellent job of putting out fires, and then they’ll run into the streams and you have to deal with toxicity,” he said. “A lot of the products out there have to be contained, if possible, and picked up for rehabilitation. With FireRein Eco-Gel, when you’ve applied to a grass fire or an outdoor situation, essentially what you’ve done is dropped a bag of groceries on the ground. It’s no different than the grass and the trees that are already there.” Further, when the gel is used, the fire is knocked down faster, and there’s dramatically less water used. “For a lot of communities, water is a precious resource. If we’re downtown in a major metropolitan area and you have a pressurized hydrant system, water’s not really an issue. But if you’re in a rural area, or a northern area, or an industrial area, sometimes the water can be very valuable. If we can knock your water use for firefighting down by a large fraction — and by a large

The gel’s other feature — preventing ignition in the first place — was demonstrated when a hot blow-

torch couldn’t ignite a board coated in the Eco-Gel. Sells said the gel could be used to apply to buildings to prevent a fire from spreading from one structure to another. Emmons said that when the gel goes on the market later this year, its price will be comparable to other firesuppression substances available to fire departments.

Stone Mills has a new deputy-reeve. On Monday night at its regular meeting, Stone Mills council passed a bylaw to appoint councillor John Wise to the position of deputyreeve for the remainder of the term. Wise — a veteran of Stone Mills council and the top vote-getter in the 2014 municipal election — declared a conflict on the motion to appoint him as deputy-reeve. The motion passed unanimously. The deputy-reeve position became vacant after council voted to appoint then deputy-reeve Eric Smith to the reeve’s chair last month; the reeve’s position became vacant after the death of Clarence Kennedy in March. In a special council meeting held immediately before the regular meeting, a by-law was passed to officially appoint Smith as reeve. Both Smith and later Wise were sworn in to their new positions by Judge Geoff Griffin. Council will now have to fill the council vacancy left behind with Wise’s appointment to deputy-reeve. Council must declare the seat to be vacant at the next regular meeting; council can choose to fill that vacancy by holding an election, or can appoint someone from outside of council.

TREES | ‘Extensive discussions’ with landowners CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Town staff said that a lot of research and preparation has gone into the removal of the Bridge Street trees. On top of an arborist study completed a few years ago, all homeowners were informed of trees being removed on or near their property and that replacement trees could be planted. “I’m going to assure council that the conversations were extensive with the landowners,” said Peter Dafoe, Greater Napanee Manager of Infrastructure Services, at a regular council meeting held on April 26. Maple and oak trees will be planted in “select locations” on Bridge Street, Roberts added.

Dafoe said many landowners did not want a replacement tree planted on their property. Some councillors feared that more trees were coming down than being replaced, but Dafoe said the town was still evaluating how many trees would be planted this summer. “There’s a more focused effort on replanting strategies,” said Dafoe, adding that 54 trees were planted last year. “Maybe by the fall or sometime, could you bring us a summary of where we’ve replanted trees and maybe the arborist report to council at some point over the summer,” said Mayor Gord Schermerhorn to staff. Schermerhorn said that

from a safety perspective removing the trees has been a wise decision. “I walked down Bridge Street and some of those trees are pretty rotten. It’s a good thing some of them are coming down, to be honest with you,” he said, grateful none of the trees have fallen yet. “The Town of Greater Napanee hired an arborist several years ago to review tree health in the urban area of Napanee and on main arteries including Bridge Street. The review provided recommendations for removals, which included trees on Bridge Street that are now being implemented,” Roberts explained. Ward 5 Councillor

Shaune Lucas also asked for council to review the arborist study again so the town can see and discuss how it should be moving forward in terms of urban forestry. “Just so we’re all aware — whether we can afford it or not — what the status is. We seem to lose more trees than we plant but I know we’re getting there,” said Lucas. “The only consultation for the Bridge Street situation is the opportunity to plant more mature trees so that the growth can be quicker,” Lucas suggested. Dafoe said a staff report would be brought to council this fall outlining how many trees were replaced and where.

Dark Sky Viewing Area holds first session of 2016 Beaver Staff

Those hoping to get a better understanding of the celestial bodies overhead are invited to the Lennox and Addington Dark Sky Viewing Area north of Erinsville this weekend. From May 7-10, 9-10:30 p.m. (weather permitting), night sky experts Terence Dickinson and Joe Gilker will be on hand to give a laserguided tour of the spring sky, with special focus on the solar system’s largest planet, Jupiter, and the Hercules globular cluster, a conglomeration of 300,000 stars in the constellation of Hercules. Organizers say that these stargazing sessions are very weather dependant, and will take place only if the sky is mostly free of clouds. Those interested in attending can visit www.DarkSkyViewing.com or www.facebook.com/darkskyviewing for the most up-to-date information about viewing conditions. This the first of several stargazing sessions and astrophotography tutorials taking place at the Lennox & Addington Dark Sky Viewing Area in 2016. Visit

www.DarkSkyViewing.com for details about upcoming events happening in the spring and summer. Longtime L&A County resident Dickinson is the editor of SkyNews Magazine. He has been involved in astronomy full-time since 1967 as a writer, an editor, a teacher and a broadcaster. He is Canada’s leading author of astronomy books for both adults and children. Notable among his 15 books is NightWatch: A Practical Guide to Viewing the Universe – one of the best-selling stargazing books in the world. Gilker, meanwhile, writes the Dark Arts Astrophotography blog (darkartsastro.ca) which chronicles his experience as an astrophotographer and provides tutorials and reviews geared at novices. Several of his articles, reviews and photos have been published in Amateur Astrophotography Magazine, a UK-based publication. His photos have also been published in the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada’s journal, and the upcoming book 100 Nature Hot Spots in Ontario.

EDITORIAL

Hydro hikes, woes continue This week, Ontario electricity customers saw their rates increase. Again. For the average household, it means almost another estimated $38 being paid a year. This is a frustrating development for customers who have already had to endure more than their fair share of increases over the past decade or so. What’s even more frustrating is that customers can’t reasonably expect those rates to go down, or even plateau, any time soon. Simply put, our electricity system is just too messed up. The first fingers of blame are, of course, pointed squarely at the Ontario Liberal government, which has overseen the electricity system for the past 13 years. To be fair, it isn’t all their fault. Ontario’s electricity system was hardly in great shape when they came to power. Decades of bad decisions and mismanagement created a costly, inefficient and indebted electricity regime. Customers were already paying too much for electricity. And, on the positive side of the ledger, the Ontario Liberals can take credit for ridding the province of coal-powered electricity generators — it’s an achievement that’s often overlooked, but given its positive impact on the air quality in the province, but it shouldn’t be. However, if the Liberal government can’t be blamed entirely for the electrical mess we’re in, there can be no question that they made it worse — so bad, in fact, that it’s hard to imagine it ever being fixed. Right now, we’re in a position where we’re producing more electricity than we need. In fact, we’re paying electricity generators to sit idle. Excess power is being sold outside of Ontario; unfortunately for us, we’re paying more to produce that excess power than we’re selling it for. Knowing that we’re paying some of the highest hydro rates in North America to pay for power that we don’t even need is very frustrating. What’s worse is the perfect storm it creates. As hydro rates increase, the cost of doing business goes up. As the cost of doing business goes up, demand for electricity goes down — so we’ve got even more power that we don’t need. As the old saying goes, if you’ve dug yourself into a hole, the best thing you can do is to stop digging. But even that’s difficult. With contracts signed with energy producers, and with infrastructure to maintain, simply ‘stopping’ isn’t viable in many, or most, cases. And that’s not just the much vilified renewable energy producers who, after the advent of the Green Energy Act, are being paid top dollar for solar and wind power. In an article in The National Post last week, economist and executive director of the National Policy Institute Brady Yauch estimates that the pending refurbishment of the Darlington nuclear facility could cost $16-22 billion — which will, too, add to future rate increases. Frustrating? It’s positively depressing. No wonder that Ontario Auditor General Bonnie Lysyk called the energy system in Ontario “broken.” While the most common suggestion to fix what’s wrong with Ontario’s electricity system is to get rid of the Liberal government in the next election, it would only be the first step. There are no easy fixes in sight; there is no switch to flick to make hydro prices suddenly go down. ‘Frustrating’ doesn’t begin to describe it. The Ontario government said these tough times are temporary, that it’s the difficult transition from (as Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli described it in The Toronto Sun on Sunday) a “dirty, unreliable electricity system” to a cleaner, more reliable system. For all our sakes, we hope that he’s right, because from where we sit, the light at the end of this tunnel isn’t visible.

Ready, set, place your holds Want to know what book releases to watch out for in the coming months? The following are some not-yetreleased books that you may want to keep on your radar. Fortunately, you can reserve them today by visiting www.countylibrary.ca. Cruel Beautiful World by Caroline Leavitt follows sixteen year old Lucy, who is about to run away with her high-school teacher boyfriend, and her older sister Charlotte, an aspiring veterinarian who will have to deal with the ramifications of Lucy’s sudden disappearance. Cruel Beautiful World is a seductive page-turner of a novel that transports the reader directly to 1969. Set against the backdrop of the Manson killings and flower power, this story is one part eerie, two parts bittersweet. It had me hooked throughout, although the ending felt like it came about rather suddenly. It is due to be released in October. I’m Thinking of Ending Things by Kingston-based writer Iain Reid is getting huge amounts of buzz. It is a very strange, genuinely creepy psychological thriller that felt a lot more literary than commercial. It follows an unnamed narrator as she travels with her new

boyfriend to visit his family on their farm. The farm turns out to be dilapidated, his parents are a bit off and then there is the mysterious ‘Caller’, who appears to be stalking her. Of course, nothing is as it seems. I can’t

Catherine Coles Coles’ Notes decide whether I really liked the twist ending or whether it just seemed like a cop out but I definitely enjoyed the unsettling lead up. Perhaps this book isn’t for everyone, but I would suggest it to readers who can tolerate unreliable narrators, a high creep factor and a bit of ambiguity in their fiction. This novel is due out midJune. Before the Fall by Noah Hawley, to be released at the end of this month, feels like it could be the hit of the summer. It presents a look at the lives of those affected by a small plane crash. Aboard the chartered plane traveling to NYC from Martha’s Vineyard were a media mogul and his young family, plus some friends and acquaintances (some wealthy, some not so), their security detail

and the flight crew. Only two of these people survive the crash. With chapters weaving between the aftermath of the crash, the backstories of the passengers plus the perspectives of a variety of other interesting characters affected by the disaster (including a news anchor who reads suspiciously like Bill O’Reilly), we learn what really happened to the plane. I loved this book — it’s all at once a page-turning mystery, compelling character study and interesting commentary on our media obsessed society. All the Missing Girls by Megan Miranda is the story about the disappearances of two young women — a decade apart — told in reverse. Ten years after abruptly leaving, Nicolette returns to her hometown to care for her father who has dementia. The mystery of what happened to Corinne, her long-missing best friend, continues to haunt her…and now another woman has disappeared. Are the events related? After the novel’s premise is set up, the uncovering of the mystery moves backwards through time, which makes for an unusual but surprisingly effective reading experience.

These Singers Are Tops At Newburgh Competition Submitted

The monthly Classic Country Music Festival held its Youth Competition Finale last weekend at the Newburgh Hall in front of a large crowd. The winners were (from left) Pierce Elliott (second), Gracey Shea (first) and Emily Keller (third). Organizers congratulated each singer on their performances. The competition was sponsored by the NewburghCamden Lions Club.

with the monitoring of the closed Richmond landfill. These difficulties persist despite years of work and repeated assurances that there is “no risk to human health or the environment.” In fact, after over four years of intense focus on this problem initiated by the Concerned Citizens and others via an appeal through Ontario’s Environmental Review Tribunal, the extent of the existing contamination has still not been completely identified and an adequate on-going monitor-

ing process has not been established. Council recognized that these issues are so serious that the proposal to establish an even larger landfill on this property poses an unacceptable risk to the community. It has therefore asked the site’s owner to withdraw its BREC mega landfill proposal and the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change to take the steps necessary to end the impending Environmental Assessment process that has been loom-

ing over this town for four years. The resolution by council is appropriate given the site’s history, and the actions requested of Waste Management and the MOECC are “the right thing to do.” We should all hope that these steps are taken immediately and that the threat to Greater Napanee and its immediate neighbours is removed once and for all.

NOTES FROM PAGE 6 I’m not convinced that there wouldn’t be glaring plot holes if one decided to re-read it chronologically, but who has the time for that? All in all, this was an entertaining read and I would suggest it for mystery-thriller fans. It will be released at the end of June. We’re All in This Together by Amy Jones, a June release, is told from the perspective of a variety of members of the Parker family from Thunder Bay, but the central character is Finn. Finn left her dysfunctional family behind years ago to live in Mississauga but when her mother makes headlines for plummeting over Kakabeka Falls in a barrel (and surviving!) Finn returns home to Thunder Bay, riling up old family conflict in the process. I found the voices of some family members more interesting than others but, that said, the entire book was quirky-funny and had a lot of heart. Another plus: it has very strong sense of place so if you are familiar with Thunder Bay (or want to be), this is a great choice. Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for providing me with Advance Reader Copies of these titles in exchange for honest reviews. Catherine Coles is the Manager of Library Services for Lennox and Addington County.

Council’s landfill resolution an important step

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver

Letter to the Editor

AST week the Greater Napanee council passed an important resolution concerning the Beechwood Road Environmental Centre mega landfill proposal. Readers will remember the BREC proposal is the second attempt to massively expand the (now closed) Richmond landfill — the first attempt was rejected in November of 2006 for environmental reasons. The resolution noted the significant and long-standing difficulties associated

■ Some Napanee residents weren’t happy with how town council handled issues relating to blasting that was taking place at a quarry just east of town — and they came to council to register their disapproval in person. A few of the residents approached council hoping that the municipality would compensate them for damage they believed were caused to their home by the blasting. Mayor Lorne Smart said that the town could not help pay for the damage, advising that the issue was between the homeowner and the company blasting at the quarry. ■ Napanee council members were debating how to address the problem of dogs roaming free on town streets. One council member suggested firing one of the town’s police officers and re-allocating that money for a full-time dog catcher and parking meter collector. Mayor Lorne Smart indicated he was receiving many complaints about dogs running through yards and gardens, causing damage. Ultimately, council opted to draft a new animal control by-law, to be voted on at the next meeting.

Letter to the Editor

Aging trees must be replaced The benefits of replacing aging trees continues to be ignored. Other municipalities (London, Kingston, Ottawa, and even towns like Perth and Picton) show more consideration for reforestation than Napanee. We give priority for util-

ities and traffic, without the compensating effect of oxygen producing trees. Napanee was always admired by visitors for its tree-lined streets, particularly Dundas and Bridge Streets. For the last few years our town seems preoccupied

with Communities in Bloom, admirably a seasonal attraction of pride. Let us consider the environmental, historical, yearround beauty and benefits of preserving and replacing our trees! Gale Rogers, Greater Napanee

■ A new air strip being built in the north end of the county was to be used by airplanes conducting spraying for gypsy moth infestations in that area. The airport was to be built in Abinger Township, about two kilometres east of Highway 41, and about 25 km north of Cloyne. The spray program was expected to begin on May 15, weather permitting. Timing for the spraying was essential to ensure the effectiveness of the spraying. The cost of the airport was estimated to be around $350,000. It would minimize down time for the planes conducting the spraying. It was not clear what would happen to the air strip after the spraying program stopped. ■ J.J. O’Neill Separate School was selected to be a pilot site to fully computerize and automate its administrative office. Principal J.P. Coulter said they started the first phase of the project by touring different places to see what kind of equipment they were using. Once a system was purchased, the school would begin computerization by storing all student information. From there it would eventually extend into the library and individual classrooms.

Local woman won’t let MS slow her down BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

unday marked the start Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month, launching the annual month long national campaign aimed at raising awareness of the most common neurological disease among young adults in Canada. To help mark the occasion volunteers will be at the Napanee LCBO selling carnations on Saturday. Proceeds from the sale of those flowers, which also serve as the symbol for MS awareness, will go to MS Canada. The annual sale is held on Mother’s Day weekend to raise awareness of the fact that MS is three times more likely to target woman. A very unpredictable disease, MS damages brain nerve cells, optic nerves and the spinal cord. It can lead to issues with vision, balance, muscle control and other basic body functions. For Napanee’s Tania Granger, this month is only the start of her quest to raise money in the fight against MS, a disease she has been dealing with since 2010. For a third straight year she has plans to take part a fundraising bike ride from Ottawa to Cornwall as well as one in Prince Edward County. For Granger, the ride is about more than raising

money for the cause, though it’s still a big reason for her to ride. But more than the charitable aspect of it, Granger says she rides to show anyone living with the disease that it doesn’t have to control their lives. In fact she says being more active has actually helped her live with MS, allowing her to reduce the amount of medication she has to take. “I just thought I feel good, I’m going to set the goal, if I have to pull out then I pull out,” Granger said of her thoughts leading up to her first ride in 2014. “I didn’t have anything to lose so I thought why not give it a try? I had someone give me a bike, I didn’t even know if it was a 10 speed or an eight speed. I had no bike clips, bike shoes, I had to go

buy a helmet and gloves. I had no clue what I was doing.” Training hard that summer with Sheryl Cook from Fit For You, she was able to complete the ride from Ottawa to Cornwall. “I rocked it, I did it by myself,” said Granger, though she did have a team of friends and family known as Tania’s Titans ride with her for support. “We started off at Metcalfe, just south of Ottawa. We biked all the way to Cornwall and did 125 kilometres that first day. Stayed overnight in Cornwall and returned the next day and did 90 km on Day 2. It was 215 km total for the two-day ride.” Last year was the first time she pushed herself to complete two fundraising

then woke up immobile, then I’m going to really feel bad about what I could have done or would have done.” This year she’ll again look to complete both routes, riding in Picton on July 10 and Ottawa to Cornwall Aug. 6-7. To help raise funds Granger will be hosting a fundraising barbecue on May 14 from 11 a.m. to 2

p.m. in the parking lot of Newburgh’s Hilltop Variety. Anyone looking to donate to her ride can search Tania’s Titans 2016 on Facebook, call 613-3540422 or e-mail Tania@kos.net. She also has plans for another yard sale fundraising event later in the summer. Those details are yet to be finalized.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE (OPEN HOUSE #2)

The Town of Greater Napanee is in the process of updating its Zoning By-law (By-law No. 02-22) and a Public Open House will be held on Wednesday, May 25, 2016 to present the first draft of the updated Zoning By-law to the public. The Council of the Corporation of the Town of Greater Napanee invites all those interested to participate in the Open House. PURPOSE OF THE PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE

The Planning Act requires that municipal councils update their Official Plan at least every five years. The Town recently updated the Official Plan through Official Plan Amendment No. 27, as adopted by Council and approved by the Province in 2014. As one of the tools used by the municipality to implement the Official Plan policies, the Zoning By-law now needs to be updated to reflect and implement changes made through the 5-year Official Plan update. The purpose of this second Public Open House is to present the first draft of the updated Zoning By-law to the public. The Open House will be an opportunity for members of the public to become involved in the review process, obtain information on how potential updates may impact the use of their lands, and to provide comments for consideration in the second draft of the Zoning By-law update. The updates to the first draft include: • Updated definitions of terms used in the by-law; • A new set of general provisions relating to special care facilities and secondary suites; • Modifications to the general provisions relating to amenity area and dwelling unit locations; • New minimum lot size requirements for residential uses in open space, prime agriculture, restricted agriculture, rural, shoreline residential, and hamlet residential zones; • Updated use permissions in prime agriculture, restricted agriculture, rural, estate residential, rural residential, shorelineresidential, hamlet residential, residential type 1, residential type 2, residential type 3, residential type 4, residential type 5, residential type 6, general commercial, and institutional zones; and • Updated zoning maps. EFFECT OF THE PUBLIC OPEN HOUSE

Comments received from the public open house will be considered by the project team and by Council in updating the Town’s Zoning By-law. SUBJECT LANDS

This comprehensive update to the Zoning By-law will affect lands throughout the Town of Greater Napanee. HOW TO PROVIDE COMMENT

All those interested may attend the public open house and provide written or verbal comments at or following the meeting. If you are unable to attend the public open house, but wish to provide written comments, please send them to: Gib Garrett, Development Services Department, Town of Greater Napanee, P.O.

Man seriously injured in flash fire

Therapy dog marks her 500th visit BY REBA PENNELL

Special to the Beaver A therapy dog provides affection and comfort to people in places like nursing and retirement homes and hospitals. Lucy, a therapy dog since 2002, does just that when she regularly goes to Village Green in Selby and John Parrot Centre in Napanee. Last Tuesday, Lucy hit a big milestone in her 14 years as a therapy dog —500 visits — as she and her owner, Douglas Dodd, went to Village Green. Dodd said that having Lucy work as a therapy dog was a great decision. “A lot of people really love her,” said Dodd. The residents faces at the Village Green light up when Lucy walks into a room and they love when they pet her and feed her treats. Lucy is also patient and loving, something that is essential in a therapy dog. Lucy’s 500 visits have not come easily; she was diag-

nosed with cancer two years ago and Dodd wasn’t sure that she was going to make it. Dodd and his wife took Lucy to Guelph where the cancer was localized and surgery was performed. Even with the cancer in her body, Lucy was the same dog that she always has been. “She charmed everyone up at the clinic, like she always does,” said Dodd. Karen Coulter, Life Enrichment Co-ordinator at Village Green, said Lucy and Dodd are like family, and when Lucy had cancer, it was a blow to the staff and residents, who always waited for Lucy to come see them. Coulter said that for the residents, it’s always nice to see Lucy because it can bring back a lot of memories for them of when the residents had dogs of their own. “The residents wait for her to come in. Pet therapy is, probably for seniors, the best. The things that touch most residents are music, animals and children. She’s become part of the family. Lucy is part of the family,” said Coulter.

Beaver Staff

A local man suffered lifethreatening burns after a sudden fire near Kaladar on Monday. According to the police, officers with the Kaladar OPP detachment were called to investigate a 911 hang-up at a business on Highway 7 near Kaladar at 8:21 a.m. When they arrived, they found the owner of the business suffering from serious burns to most of his body. He was transported to hospital with life-threatening injuries. The Kaladar/Barrie Township Fire Department, Ministry of Labour and Office of the Fire Marshal were contacted to attend the scene. Initial investigation has determined that the man was burned after opening a wood stove to add more wood. A bucket of paint thinner was near the stove and it is believed that it ignited, causing severe burns.

Introduction to stained glass up next at museum BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

Children will have the chance to get a little crafty at this month’s edition of Museum Kids on May 7 as they learn the basics of stained glass artistry from Howard Sandles. Following the guidance of Sandles, each of the kids will have the opportunity to create their very own stained glass garden bug. The end product will make for a perfect Mother Day’s present. Many people choose to put their stained glass artwork on a sliding patio glass door to serve two functions — one as decoration, the other as a safety precaution to remind people the clear glass door is closed. “We’ll start with a short demonstration, maybe with a student or two and then do a small ornament,” said Sandles. “I’ll give them a brief history of glass.” Stained glass can refer to coloured glass as a material or to works created from it. Throughout its thousand-year history, the term has been applied almost exclusively to the windows of churches, mosques and other significant buildings. These days it has expanded to include standalone flat panel pieces or three-dimensional creations. A retired elementary school teacher, Sandles has been creating stained glass artwork for more than 35 years. He hosts several workshops in schools and teaches at The

Glasshouse in Kingston. “I often do workshops in schools around Easter and Christmas,” said Sandles. “I talk about the science of stained glass. There’s a reason soldering works, there is a reason we use copper foil, there is a reason the glass is the colour it is.” A very hands-on experience, the kids will get the opportunity to see how it all works and learn about stained glass while creating their own creations. Sandles says the techniques they use are pretty basic and that the workshop would be perfect for kids aged 3 and older. “What’s neat is to watch the young kids in particular with a pair of pliers,” said Sandles. “It’s something new for some of them.” At the other end of the age spectrum, Sandles said he’s often pleasantly surprised to see older students showing an interest in stained glass. He’s visited older grades when hosting work shops at local schools and often finds very eager young artists. “I was concerned, being a Grade 8 teacher, that they wouldn’t be interested,” said Sandles. “They turned out to be very enthusiastic.” For some extra fun, Sandles says he encourages the kids at the Museum Kids event to create a name for their glass bug and give it a brief family history. The event will get underway at 10 a.m. at the Lennox and Addington County Museum. It’s free of charge for all families.

Adam Prudhomme-Staff

Howard Sandles shows off a piece of stained-glass artwork. He’ll be leading a stained glass workshop for children at L&A County Museum and Archives on Saturday.

Here are some great ways to give Mom what she really wants for Mother's Day oms can be very hard to buy for. So what's a dad or kid supposed to do? We have a few ideas on what Mom really wants, and how to give her a day she will not soon forget!

PLAN AHEAD This is an occasion that should focus on Mom and make her feel really special -- like the sun rises and sets on her! Try to think of what she has mentioned throughout the year.

PAMPER HER If there is any special time in Mom's life to show her your appreciation, this is it. A manicure, pedicure, facial or any other activity in which she can relax without a care in the world would be perfect for this day.

LET HER RELAX If Mom's not into a spa treatment (or if she's already treated herself), give her some time alone. Pick up a couple of her favourite DVDs, a stack of magazines she loves or a new book release -- and let her have

HAPP YM OTHE R

’S DAY

a few hours of real me time.

GIVE WHAT SHE WANTS Mother's Day is the time to show your mom you understand and appreciate her. So tailor your gift around what she likes -- or dislikes.

THINK OUTSIDE THE FAMILY

Make a date to shop our new arrivals together, or get her the Gift Certificate she'll love!

A GIRL'S GOTTA EAT Get to the woman of the hour in time for dinner -- Mom doesn't need to be chef and dishwasher on her special day. Make reservations, order her favourite takeout meal or pick up groceries and cook a nice dinner for her at home.

Sunday May 8th Lunch or Dinner!

Don't forget all the other moms you know, especially those without partners. Send those moms you love cards or call them and wish them a happy Mother's Day.

Lions Walk to fight diabetes this Saturday

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

After a one-year hiatus, the Napanee Lions Walk for Diabetes is set to return this Saturday, complete with a new route and a focus on family fun. Starting with a $5 pancake breakfast at 8:30 a.m., walkers will depart from the Lions Hall and make their way towards Palace Road, which will take them to the waterfront trail. They will walk alongside the river

and follow the loop that takes them back to the Lions Hall for a distance of three kilometres. A shorter one-kilometre route, complete with a bus pick up from L&A Seniors Outreach Services, is available as well for those looking for a less taxing walk. “It’s a fantastic walk, most of it goes along the riverside trail,” said Harvey Gere, member of the Napanee Lions who is helping to organize the walk. There is no official start time for the walk and par-

ticipants are free to depart whenever they like throughout the day up until 2 p.m. Because it’s a walk and not a race, there is no pressure to try and complete the walk in a timely fashion making it perfect for walkers of all ages. “People can take their time, enjoy the scenery and enjoy time with their friends and family,” said Betsy Lake, community engagement lead for the South East Region of the Canadian Diabetes Association.

Back at the Lions Hall there will be a live DJ from PopCan Radio, playing music and giving away prizes throughout the event. A fish bowl auction will also take place, with the winners being drawn at 1:30 p.m. A bit different than a typical auction, a fish bowl auction allows participants to purchase tickets, write their name on them and place them into a bowl in front of a prize of their choice. A draw will then be held for each individual prize. All of the money raised from the pancake breakfast, fish bowl auction and pledges from the walkers, will go towards the Canadian Diabetes Association’s

Camp Banting. “Camp Banting is geared towards children and youth living with Type 1 diabetes,” said Lake. “Essentially when you go to a diabetes camp, it’s there to help educate the kids to self-manage their own diabetes on a wide range of how-tos.” Camp Banting is one of 12 camps operated by the CDA. It offers kids a chance to meet other campers their age going through the same struggles and educates them on how to better handle the disease. Chances are everyone knows at least one person dealing with diabetes as statistics show every three minutes a Canadian is diag-

noses with the lifelong disease. Saturday’s walk in Napanee marks the return of the annual fundraising event after a short hiatus. It was started by longtime Lion member John Grose and held in his honour in later years. For more information on the walk, including registration and pledge forms, visit www.diabetes.ca/events and type in Napanee Lions Walk. There is a fee of $20 per participant, or $40 per family or $100 for a team of 10, with all proceeds going to the CDA. Participants can register in advance or on Saturday at the Lions Hall, which is located on 57 County Rd. 8 in Napanee.

‘De-clutter’ sale returns to Stone Mills BY REBA PENNELL

Special to the Beaver Residents in Stone Mills Township will get a chance to ‘de-clutter’ — and maybe make a few dollars — again this spring. A second annual De-Clutter Sale, a yard sale where people from all over the township are able to participate, will take place on May 28 from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. The event will allow people to gain more exposure for their individual sales. Diane Giberson, the event’s founder, said last year she posted her idea to the Facebook page ‘Stone Mills Market Place’ and feedback was phenomenal. “It just took off like wildfire. I was hoping that it got big,” said Giberson. She also noted that while they had 75 homes registered, some people participated and didn’t register. This year there are already 43 homes registered with still just a few weeks before the event. People can register their homes until about a week before the sale. They are welcome to still participate, but registering your home just guarantees being advertised. Areas from Newburgh all the way to Centreville have houses registered for the event, scattering people all over the map. There are also going to be barbecues

going on around the area on the day of the event. Tamworth and District Lions Club is holding its annual garage sale from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. and there will be a barbecue there. There will also be a barbecue at Beaver Lake Lions Park in Erinsville. A Tamworth and Erinsville Plant Sale is being held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Another barbecue is at the Yarker Fire Hall, where there the Yarker firefighters will also be holding a car wash. “My goal for these events is to bring people from the cities into the country and get to know a little more about Stone Mills,” said Giberson. She went on to say that her main goal was for people to recognize what a great township it is and what local businesses offer. Giberson wants to reach 75 or 80 households. She said that she is confident the goal will be met. There is no fee for would-be vendors to submit their house on the map. People simply register on the website and get updates on the event. To gain more exposure, there is also a website dedicated to the sale. Before the event there will be a map showcasing all of the houses and their addresses; there will also be a list of some of the items that are going to be sold. To register go to: http://www.stonemillsmarketplace.ca/declutter/

NDSS shop students help woman ride in style Bicycle refurbished at school now providing exercise, rehab opportunity for cancer survivor

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

Through a partnership with Napanee District Secondary School, the Napanee OPP, and one determined volunteer, a local breast cancer survivor has been given a custom-built bicycle to help rebuild her strength. Linda Flynn is a Napanee resident who is a breast cancer survivor. She has been regaining her strength through physiotherapy, much of which is done on an indoor bike. “As the weather is getting nicer, I thought it would be nice to have a bike. I’m on the exercise bike in physio and I thought, ‘I can do this and it’s comfortable,’” she explained. However, without full benefit care during her cancer treatments she didn’t feel she could afford the expense to purchase a new bike. A friend of hers set her up with NDSS teacher Dave Brinkman, who runs the Busted Knuckle Garage focus program at the high school, which teaches mechanics ranging from bikes to cars to tractors and everything in between. Brinkman and his students have been fixing up and repairing old bikes for members of the community who cannot afford their own bikes but this was the first time they decided to build a custom bike specifically for a cancer survivor. “We got a call about Linda, that she was a cancer survivor and needed a bike for rehab, so we said ‘absolutely.’ We took her down and she picked out a bike that she liked; we took three bikes apart and built the one that she has so she can get herself back into shape,” Brinkman explained. Brinkman had Flynn come to the shop at the school so he and his students could talk to Flynn about her wants and needs in terms of a rehab bike. Flynn said there were multiple bikes for her to choose from at NDSS so she was able to find something both comfortable, easy to use, and something that she liked. “When I went in the basement at the high school, they had so many bikes. There’s everything

school for repair. It’s really Vrantsidis who has been the backbone to the project. “Tyla is a really nice lady with a really big heart. She’s done a lot of personal work and personal commitment,” said Cst. Perry. Brinkman said about 25 bikes have been distributed to those in need in Greater Napanee over the past few years. Vrantsidis is currently working on expanding the program. A Community Bike Program will soon be run out of the back of NDSS, which will be a joint-program run by volunteers and NDSS students. Napanee OPP will continue to supply abandoned bikes to help sustain the program. The Community Bike Program will offer regular hours for people to drop off bikes to be repaired. Those seeking a bicycle would also be able to arrange for a bike through this program. Organizers hope the proAshley Espinoza-Staff gram will be up and running Linda Flynn stands with her new, custom-built bike outside NDSS. The students standing behind her built next school year, if not before. Brinkman said anyone this rehab bike to help Flynn rebuild her strength after chemo. Program teacher Dave Brinkman (front with broken or unwanted right) said it’s win-win: Flynn got a new bike, while his students learned how to build and repair one. bikes can drop them off at volunteer, Tyla bikes for us, and Tyla has be repaired and provided to NDSS for repair.

We took about 12 bikes over to community housing and the little kids were just over-the-top excited, but it was really interesting to see the affect on the teenagers. All of a sudden, it’s real for them,” Brinkman explained. “It was interesting to see these tough guys touched by something like that.” NDSS students help to repair and build bikes for the community but the program would not be possible without the Napanee OPP and the help of one deter-

Raiders Score With Celebrity Cook-Off

The Napanee Raiders held their fundraising Celebrity Cook-Off at the Lafarge Banquet Hall at the SPC on Saturday night. Once the dust settled and the smoke cleared (top left, from left) Brian Woodcock, Jim Thompson and Harold Schonauer from the ‘Grease Monkeys’ team were judged to have

whipped up the best dish. Shaw Communications, meanwhile, made good on their pledge to make a monetary donation to KidSport with every Raider goal this season, contributing $5,000 to the charity. Above right, Steve Sharf (left) of Shaw Direct hands the check over to Adam Vickers of KidSport.

The annual Relay for Life in Napanee is changing in more ways than one, starting this year. Previously held at Napanee District Secondary School, it is now being held at the Fairgrounds in Napanee in June. As always, the event will raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society; similar Relay for Life events will be held across Canada. According to organizer Barbara Revelle, the organizing committee’s decision to change venues wasn’t related to any deficiencies at the old site at the high school. “We thought we just wanted a change,” said Revelle. The event not only is being held in a different location, but the time has

activities taking place. There is going to be a kids zone to keep children entertained, and there will also be a raffle table. Revelle said all people need to do is phone and there will be a list of spots where help is needed. She also noted that any high school students needing more volunteer hours are welcome to lend a hand as well. There will also be local entertainment — demonstrations by the local karate club, Zumba and a drumming group. To keep participants fueled, pizza will be sold on site. Revelle said the only thing that needs to be done is people should come out and get registered. She also encourages any cancer survivors to join this year; there is no fee to take part.

also changed — it is now being held from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., a shift from the traditional time of 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. Revelle said they were noticing no one was staying until 7 a.m. when it was held overnight and they are hoping that by changing the time, more people — and more families — will participate. The main challenge faced this year is participation, she said. Revelle indicated that the biggest misconception people have is thinking they have to walk for the whole 12 hours. “That is not the case,” said Revelle. “People set their own goals. Whether they want to walk around the track five times, 10 times or 20 times. “ The event organizers are looking for more volunteers this time around.

Junior Golden Hawks rugby team rolls Black Knights, move to 2-1 Close out season Friday at FSS BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

Defense continues to be a strong suit for the NDSS Golden Hawks junior boys’ rugby team, who allowed just two tries this week. Despite their solid defense, the Hawks were however forced to settle for a split in those games. Napanee routed the La Salle Black Knights 19-10 on the road Tuesday, powered by a pair of tries from Brad Baker and one from David Gustavel. The win was a nice bounce back from a tough loss at home on Friday, when the Hawks were blanked 3-0 by the Regi Panthers. The only scoring of the game came via a penalty kick midway through the second half. “The effort is the best thing we can take out of it,” Hawks coach Brad Melville said following Friday’s loss. “There’s still a lot of guys

that haven’t played much rugby and are still learning the game, but the effort on defense and attack was great. To keep them try-less was a great effort.” With the split the juniors are now 2-1 on the season with one last regular season match on the road against Frontenac looming. If the Hawks could win that game and get a little help from the rest of the league, they could still secure the top seed ahead of the KASSAA playoffs. They are currently in a three way tie for first with four points, but have played one more game than the 2-0 Frontenac Falcons and Regi Panthers. A top two finish would advance them right into the semifinals on May 16 while anything below second means they'd play a win-orgo-home quarterfinal game on May 13. Napanee’s senior boys team weren't as fortunate this week, dropping both of their games. Ryan Cudd scored their lone try in a 277 home loss to Regi on Friday which they followed up with a 15-0 defeat at La

Salle. They too will wrap up their regular season in Frontenac tomorrow. “(The Panthers) were a little bit more enthusiastic than us and more aggressive and it showed,” Melville said of the senior team following Friday’s loss. “There’s a bit of work to do.” At this point the best the 1-2 Hawks could hope for is a third-place finish ahead of the playoffs. They are however in no danger of missing the playoffs as every team qualifies. They can still however secure home field and an easier opponent. NDSS’ girls team picked up a win and a tie in their matches this week, moving to 2-1-1 on the season. They battled to a 5-5 draw at La Salle on Tuesday after blanking Sydenham 36-0 on Friday. Napanee is now tied for third in the eight team standings. They’ll play Frontenac tomorrow before returning home Tuesday to host the Ernestown Eagles to close out the regular season. That game gets underway at 4 p.m.

in the Schmalz Cup finals. The Ayr Centennials finished off the four game sweep on Friday, besting the Panthers 5-2 on home ice. Aside from Game 2’s one goal differential, every other game of the series was decided by three goals or more. For the Centennials, who were founded in 1982, it was their first ever Schmalz Cup title in franchise history. The sweep marked the first time all season the Panthers had lost three consecutive games, let alone

four. The powerhouse team was dominant since the start of the season back in September, rolling to the Empire B League title. They swept the Napanee Raiders in the local league finals. With the Junior C season officially in the books, teams will now turn their attention to training camps in advance of the next season, which typically gets underway in late September. The Napanee Raiders have already held their rookie camp with main camp scheduled to get underway sometime in August.

MEMORIAMS

McTAGGART - In memory of our dad, Stanley, who passed away May 1, 2007. Gone are the days we used to share, But in our hearts you’re always there. Never more than a thought away, Loved and remembered every day. Love, Esther and David. McTAGGART - Lalia. In loving memory of our mother who passed away May 4, 2014. The angels sang Amazing Grace, The Lord came down to touch her face, Held her hand and whispered low, ‘Come with Me, it’s time to go’. The gate of Heaven opened wide, The angels lined up side by side, A special gift was on its way The day the Lord took Mom away. Love, Esther and David.

MEMORIAMS

AARON WHALEN September 21, 1979-May 7, 2011

GARY BARKER

They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason Will change the way I feel. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name, I feel again the bitter blow That never should have came. As time goes by without you And the days turn into years, I hold a million memories And cry a thousand tears. To me you were so special, What more is there to say, Except I wish with all my heart That you were here today.

Our lives go on without you, But nothing is the same. We have to hide our heartache, When someone speaks your name. Sad are the hearts that love you, Silent are the tears that fall. Living our lives without you, Is the hardest part of all.

Painting has been and will remain the easiest, quickest and often cheapest way to add real value to your home. A new coat of paint will not only change the look and feel of your home, but greatly influence its interest should you ever decide to sell. Whether you are paining the interior or exterior of your home yourself, or hiring a pro, it always comes down to cost. We just have to wait for mother nature to give us some warmer weather, so we can go out there and paint. I know I’m anxiously waiting for her to co-operate. I love to paint. As long as my kids are occupied and not screaming “Mom!” all the time, and with a little music in the background, I’m good to go. Like many projects, location and size will have the biggest cost impact on your exterior painting project. There are many factors that can increase or decrease the overall cost of your exterior painting project. Hiring a pro is more expensive then painting yourself and hiring a local pro will be cheaper than hiring one hundreds of miles away. Similarly, painting a large house is more expensive than painting a smaller house. Additionally, taller homes are more expensive to paint. A four-story home that is 2,500 square feet may be twice as expensive to paint as a two-story home that is the same square footage. Painting from a ladder is much more difficult and time-consuming than painting on flat ground and therefore, drive your total cost up. Prep work is another big factor in exterior painting costs. All exterior paint jobs must be prepped and cleaned before any work can begin. Often, professional painters will power wash a home exterior with hot water or pressure wash it with cold water. Removing dirt and buildup from the exterior surfaces will significantly improve the quality of your painting job. As always, this part of the project can be done without a pro, but you must ensure you have the right equipment. There are other influences that go into the overall price. While they do not

Paint quality not only has a large effect on the overall price, but the look as well. As such, with most DIY painters painting walls or cabinets, you should go with a flat paint. While they are more expensive, flat paints contain minerals that roughen the surface, creating an even coat that hides flaws. Glossier paints, on the other hand, have fewer minerals and form a smoother, more durable finish. They do show imperfections that may or may not be good for your chosen design. Note that low-sheen, Design Time eggshell, semi-gloss and affect the total cost as much gloss (enamels) paints are as some of the previously often used to paint kitchen stated factors, they do have and bathroom cabinets.

Musicians band together to support mission outreach Staff Reporter

Local musicians have come together to organize a fundraising concert to benefit local non-profit outreach ministry program Helping Cope Through Hope. Tom and Cheryl Martin have been travelling to Africa and Peru for years to sponsor underprivileged children. Their focus is to help children attend school and provide food and shelter to the poor. Helping Cope Through Hope has become somewhat of a local endeavor, as many in Greater Napanee and the surround-

ing area sponsor children, young adults and families in the communities the Martins help. Local musician Barry Lovegrove decided to organize a fundraiser for the Martins, which takes place this Sunday at the Newburgh United Church at 2 p.m. A band he’s a part of called Smile will be performing, as well as the Newburgh United Church Choir and David Archibald. “This is purely going to be an entertainment fundraiser and I hope to do it on an annual basis,” said Lovegrove. “I had this idea when Tom and Cheryl came and talked at the church

last year, I thought if we could do a freewill offering so there’s no cost to the church and make it an annual thing and try to sponsor a child or two, for their future education.” Cheryl Martin said it costs about $400 to sponsor a child for a year. Tom Martin said he doesn’t think Lovegrove will have any problems meeting his sponsorship goal. “The kids are just unbelievably thankful… This is the way it starts,” said Tom Martin, saying he and Cheryl already have a child or two in mind for the church to sponsor. Tom and Cheryl just got back from

Wouldn’t it be nice if Newburgh was a place where we sponsored a bunch of people in another place? And then if we needed to later, we could raise $5,000 for a big project; we’d have a goal to work toward,” said Lovegrove. Tom and Cheryl also do a lot of work building the communities they help. They help to build and purchase houses for families, build ponds and farms for people to work in and to feed their families, and have

also purchased larger homes for orphaned and abused children to live in, while attending school. Lovegrove hopes the church can one day contribute to some of these projects, as well as sponsor some children. “I love the whole concept of it. There’s a great joining of community,” said Lovegrove. “Just show love to people and care for them and be happy,” Tom Martin added.

event. Jeff Sloan, one of the volunteers sponsoring the Hosni family, said this last fundraiser should be enough to help fund the family through its first year in Canada. In celebration of the refugees coming to Canada, Melodia Monday has planned a performance all about Canada for the refugees and their supporters to enjoy. “They’re doing a tribute to Canada program, which I think is in recognition of all the efforts Canada has made to resettle refugees. So our (refugee) family is going to be there in attendance as well and there may be other refugee families from the area there,” said Sloan. “It’s a celebration of the family and a celebration of Canada.” The Hosni family will be attending the event.

and Majed Hosni, the father of the six-person refugee family, will each speak briefly at the fundraiser about the Hosni’s experience in Canada so far. Sloan said the Hosni family has been adapting well to life in Canada. The children are doing well in school and the parents are learning English. Summer programs are being set up for all members of the family. “They (the parents) are continuing with their English classes in Kingston and we’re soon going to be doing some of the English teaching here in Napanee. We’re going to have some local volunteers who will be ESL providers here in Napanee so they’ll be doing one day a week here,” Sloan explained. He hopes they can continue English classes in Napanee through the summer. “We’re looking for summer activities for the children as well. The boys are going to soon be playing soccer and we’re looking at other options for the summer time. We want to maintain their language skills and expand them through the summer as well,” said Sloan. The performance starts at 2:30 p.m. on May 15 at the Trinity United Church. Tickets are $15 and available at Gray’s IDA.

is pleased to celebrate National Nursing Week to recognize all of our dedicated nursing professionals. Your caring and compassion bring comfort to our residents each day.

. u o y k Than

May 9-15 will be the dates for National Nursing Week 2016, alongside International Nurses Day and Florence Nightingale’s birthday, May 12. The Canadian Nurses Association theme, Nurses: With you every step of the way, emphasizes how important nurses are in our lives — at every age, in all health situations, for all Canadians. With more than 406,000 regulated nurses in Canada, the largest of any health provider group, nurses are the backbone of our health system. This week, we recognize the profession for their dedication and commitment to making Canada a healthier nation. Are you thinking about a career as a registered nurse? The possibilities are limitless. Nursing offers both men and women a wide range of opportunities for career challenges, travel, professional development and the personal satisfaction of

working in a caring profession that helps people to get well or to stay healthy. Why should I consider a career as an RN? This is an excellent time to enter nursing!

There are so many career opportunities! Every Canadian at some point in their life will require the services of a nurse. Since many nurses will soon retire, Canada needs bright people to choose

nursing as a career. What kinds of things will I do? The great thing about nursing is that your choices never end. RNs support people to attain, maintain and regain healt-h across the lifespan. Nurses practise in five major areas of responsibility: direct care, education, administration, research and policy.

You put your passion for your profession into everything you do for our residents each day and it shows!
