Family and Children Services for Frontenac and Lennox and Addington is looking for a few good foster families.

Thirty, to be exact.

The child-welfare agency is appealing to the public to increase its number of foster parents to address a growing shortage of places for children in care — and in particular, teens in care — across the district.

“Some of the foster parents, over time, do retire or stop fostering,” said Steve Woodman, executive director for the agency. “We also have a lot of teens coming up through the system. Our overall number of children we’re serving is down, but the number of teens is up. It’s kind of creating that environment where we really do need additional foster parents for youth.”

Woodman says a decision by the agency to place as many children in the care of foster parents as opposed to group homes is another factor at play.

“We’re trying to reduce the amount of group care that we use,” he said.

It’s time to cast a ballot — in one form or another.

After weeks of campaigning, local municipal election candidates only have a few days to wait before they know who’ll be serving on council for the next four years, and who’ll be on the outside looking in.

Local school boards, including the Limestone District School Board and the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board are also holding elections for trustee positions at the same time.

Although polling day is Monday, changes to some municipal elections have seen the polling period extended. With a new electronic voting system that allows for voters to cast a ballot online or by telephone, Greater Napanee is already collecting ‘ballots.’

Those eligible to cast a vote can do so by internet-connected device or by telephone anytime between now and 8 p.m. on Monday.

There will not be an opportunity to cast a paper ballot in Greater Napanee.

It’s who you are that makes us who we are.

tinued.

Further, it’s a need that stretches across the geographic area that the agency serves, from Kingston to Cloyne.

Esther Pigion, the president of the agency’s foster parent association and herself a foster parent for three teenagers, said there are a few characteristics that would benefit a family that is considering becoming a foster family.

“I think patience is the first thing that comes to mind — a family that is understanding and patient, but is confident.,” she says. “Foster teens, they have a different set of challenges than younger children might have. A patient family but a confident family… a confident family that is OK with some of the challenges that teens would present.

(Those) are the biggest things that come to mind.”

She says she can also attest to the positive influ-

ence the right foster family can have for a vulnerable child. In her case, one of her foster children had a history for being a “tough cookie”; however, since being a part of a stable family, he has flourished. “I think it helps if you have good healthy routines, and you can be a reliable person that they can count on.

(We’re) consistent. Those are some of the traits that we have in our home.”

While those characteristics are valuable, what makes the ‘right’ foster family can come in many forms, says John Suart, manager of community relations for Family and Children’s Services of Frontenac and L&A. “We’ve introduced a lot more flexibility in the last little while. We don’t need two-parent, traditional type families. When you look at our foster parents and what we’re looking for, you see the same kind of vibrancy and the same

kind of diversity that you see in the rest of the community. It’s not just the typical mom-and-pop kind of situation. There are a lot of different people who could be foster parents,” he said.

Woodman said the process to become a foster parent takes between six months and year, and includes a 10-week, onenight-a-week training program. Suart says the entire process is explained in a video that can be found on the agency’s website, www.FamilyandChildren.c a.

“We want to send the message that, foster parents are special people, and we’re looking for special people to be foster parents,” said Suart. “Even if you don’t want to be a foster parent, chances are you probably know someone who might want to do it or could do it in your community. We want people to spread the word.”

Greater Napanee

Town gets good news on policing costs

H;DEL7J?D= JE >EM NDJ A>K:#

Greater Napanee residents will pay less per household for OPP service next year

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

Greater Napanee will pay less for policing next year.

Last Tuesday night, town council vote to receive for information the OPP’s annual billing statement for 2015 — a statement that confirmed an anticipated drop in policing costs for the municipality.

According to the report received by council, the total billing for 2015 projects to be $541.74 per household and checks in at just over $3.9 million in total. That would represent a slight decrease for 2014’s forecasted $571 cost per household and $4.2 million for overall police costs.

Included in the report to council, which is more than 100 pages, is a detailed breakdown of the policing budget. “In addition to what I

call the simplified cost sheet that they sent us, there is a manual developed that’s about 100 pages that details the individual expenses from the OPP that are considered provincial responsibilities and what’s considered municipal responsibilities," said Greater Napanee Chief Administrative Officer Ray Callery. “What this bill attempts to do is take just the municipal portion and divide it by the total properties across the province to calculate the base cost. There’s definitely some detailed information that’s available for council.�

Transparency is what Greater Napanee and several other municipalities have been calling for from the OPP over the last several years as the price tag for policing services has continued to grow. In the past, municipalities had little recourse but to pay the bill handed to them by the OPP.

Under the outgoing model, there was a wide discrepancy in what some townships paid per household compared to neighbouring communities. “I think we were very successful in getting 14 other municipalities on board to lobby the province,� said Mayor Gord Schermerhorn. “I know Ray did a lot of work with the other CAOs and municipalities and I’m very proud to say Napanee was ahead of that.�

The new pricing formula will take effect Jan. 1 and is expected to see Greater Napanee’s overall policing costs drop through 2020 as the new billing system is phased in. “I see it is going in the right direction: down,� added deputy mayor Roger Cole. “Not significantly down but we know it’s going to be down over the next five years.�

Local farmer to give organic primer Grassroots Growers presentation on Nov. 4

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

Gardeners looking to go the organic route will want to take note of the TamworthErinsville Grass Root Growers’ next event, held Nov. 4 at Christ Church in Tamworth.

John Wise of Wiseacres Farm in Centreville will be the guest speaker, offering tips for growing strawberries, raspberries, asparagus and tree fruits using organic methods. He’ll be speaking from over 30 years experience in the industry. “The nice thing about farming organic with minimal use of (fertilizers) is the independence,� said Wise. “You don’t have to buy something in order to produce healthy food. I think that’s part of the appeal.�

Along with talking about organic methods he will also cover sustainable farming methods for both large scale operations and backyard growers. Part of the talk, he adds, will be about encouraging others who have already given it a try but have had their struggles. Making the switch from conventional pesticides to organic takes time and requires a lot of patience. “I had one insect, something called a tarnished plant bug, that was causing a lot of trouble,� Wise recalled of his early organic farming days. “That was the only thing we sprayed for when we first got going in the 1980s. When I decided in the early ‘90s that I really didn't want to use that insecticide anymore, the first year I didn’t use it I had a huge outbreak of tarnished plant bug. It was terrible. Almost every berry was damaged. What had happened was any natural insect predator the

plant bug had was wiped away by the pesticides. The pesticide wasn’t just killing the tarnished plant bug, it was killing what would normally help control the tarnished plant bug.�

After giving the organic method another try, Wise noticed the next year that the bugs weren’t as problematic. By giving the plants some time to regrow he began to manage the problem with a more natural method.

Through his own experience and talking with fellow experts he says one thing remains a universal truth: the soil is the most important factor. While he used to get frustrated trying to target one specific problem, he learned that the first step should always be to take care of the soil.

Providing the soil with the natural nutrients it needs will do wonders for the crop. “Mainly what you’re interested in is stimulating the biological activity in the soil,� said Wise. “The soil is home to trillions and quadrillions of organisms. Some are microscopic, some are tiny little soil animals. What those creatures do is keep nutrients cycling in the soil and available to plants.�

During his talk he will cover ways to feed the soil and what farmers and gardeners can do to promote a healthy cycle of soil for their crops.

Following his talk there will be a seed exchange. Guests are encouraged to bring their own seed varieties to trade with fellow green thumbs.

All are welcome and there is no fee to attend. The talk is scheduled to get underway at 7 p.m.

Christ Church is located at 26 Concession St. N in Tamworth.

Deseronto

Deputy-mayor candidates clash over attendance Edgar Tumak challenges Dan Johnston over absences from council meetings

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

Part of running for council is committing time — and in Deseronto, attendance records for the deputy-mayor candidates has been a heated topic.

Edgar Tumak, a current Deseronto councillor running for the position of deputy mayor for the next term, is questioning the absences of his competitor for deputy mayor and fellow councillor Dan Johnston, who missed 26 meetings over the last four-year-term.

For his part, Tumak didn’t miss any meetings over the same period.

“Communication on council is important. We have to be there,” said Tumak.

“My competitor has not been there.

He’s missed (about) a third of all meetings. ... I don’t see how someone can take on the mantle of more responsibility when you have not engaged your fellow councillors, your elected officials, or respected the electorate by missing so many meetings,” he continued.

Johnston says that, in spite of his absences, he has continued to stay informed of council business, and would be able to attend meetings if he’s successful in his bid for the deputy-mayor’s spot.

According to Gail Maracle, Acting Clerk for the Town of Deseronto, Johnston missed 26 meetings in the past term, while Tumak did not miss any meetings — that includes council meetings, zoning meetings, committee-of-the-whole meetings, and in camera sessions.

Mayor Norm Clark missed three meetings, while Councillor Dennis Tompkins and Deputy Mayor Clarence Zieman each missed eight meetings in the past term (four years). Between Dec. 1, 2010, and Oct. 7, 2014, there have been 74 meetings.

Tumak argued that while Johnston did communicate via email when he was not able to attend a meeting, he still misses important conversations that take place in person among council and staff.

“You have to be there because something may arise that may not necessarily be apparent at the agenda level but then gets communicated and can affect how you run. That ability to engage and follow through is critical with communication,” Edgar said.

Johnston said he had discussed meeting times and attendance with council on an ongoing basis and his absences did not seem to be an issue. He also noted that during the last term, council moved some of its meetings to the daytime.

“It surprises me this became a campaign issue. All of council, including my opponent, knew when deciding to hold regular daytime council meetings, it could affect my attendance and would need to be reviewed if I couldn’t accommodate the changes from the traditional evening schedule. I addressed this topic with council multiple times and no concerns were expressed to me about my contribution level or the overall effectiveness of my representation,” said Johnston.

He assures that he attended many key meetings and will continue to do so as deputy mayor if he’s elected.

“I attend many committee related daytime meetings, such as legal or land claim, budget deliberations, or meetings pertaining to my direct departments. I’m an

active and respected contributor to our council and my commitment is unwavering,” said Johnston.

Tumak said Johnston’s absences were discussed at the council table but little could be done.

“Council members were concerned about this but, in our rules of procedure, there is no way to censure a member unless he/she is absent for more than three consecutive meetings without notifying council. Dan (Johnston) came close to this, missing three in a row, but appearing for the fourth. As we were meeting only monthly at that time, this meant he was not involved for a quarter of a year (February – April 2012),” Tumak said.

He also added that Johnston missed the meeting where the passing of the 2014 municipal budget occurred.

“This is why one of the four opening tag lines of my election brochure highlights presence and commitment, referring to diligence and participation on council, as well numerous other committees and working groups,” said Tumak. “As an elected official, you need to be there.”

Johnston said he is prepared to hold the title Deseronto Deputy Mayor and is confident he will be able to attend important meetings.

“This is something I considered heavily when making my bid for this position and I didn’t make the decision lightly.

Attending special meetings of council during the day or night and providing council representation at community events, is not an issue for me; I do it now and would continue (to do so.) My phone is never off, my door is never closed when it comes to town business and the community can attest to this,” said Johnston.

On top of that, Johnston notes that being on council means more than attending meetings.

“My role as a council member extends well past council meetings. I support town events, I get involved and I promote the growth of community,” he said. “I’ve always received positive feedback for my accessibility, consistency and fair representation from residents, council, and staff members.”

Johnston said missed meetings are bound to happen but that he will do his best to serve the people of Deseronto fairly.

“Over a four-year term having conflicts with meetings can happen to anyone for a variety of reasons such as work, family, or personal health and I’m no different. Both my wife and I work and we’re raising a family so things like an illness, school commitment or other family related issues can lead to an unforeseen change in our schedule from time to time, day or night,” he said.

“This council term is unique as meeting times were changed to include a daytime meeting schedule and I’m employed during the day. I’m a three-term councillor and prior to these changes my attendance wasn’t questioned,” Johnston added.

He noted that a number of other candidates in this election are also employed during the day. Therefore, as deputy mayor, Johnston hopes to move all meetings to the evening to allow councillors, staff and members of the public to attend meetings. “I have no doubt the new council will revert to an evening schedule and my attendance would not be of concern,” said Johnston.

EDITORIAL

Picturing Our Community

Time to stay true to our values In the last edition before an election, we generally use this space to exhort folks to go out and vote.

And, it was going to be again — until some most troubling events began unfolding in Ottawa.

In those ‘get out the vote’ editorials, we often reference the fact that thousands of Canadian soldiers paid the price of our democracy with their blood. We will remember that sacrifice, as we always do, only a few days from now. It’s tragically ironic that yesterday’s shootings took place at our national monument to those soldiers — killing a man who was literally ‘standing on guard for thee’ — and at the very heart of our democracy: Parliament Hill.

As this column is being written, details are still sketchy.

We’re sure that, by the time Beaver readers see this, they’ve already been given a clearer picture of just what has happened. We have no idea, at the time of writing, if this attack is connected to the running down and killing of a Canadian soldier near Montreal on Monday — a killing that, by all indications, was staged by an Islamic extremist in support of the Islamic State of Syria and Iraq. However, given that ISIS has named Canada specifically for attack, it seems all too likely these events are ‘terrorist’ in nature.

In situations like these, it’s important to remember a few things. One is that terrorist attacks are designed to illicit a response. They’re designed to illicit fear.

It’s after attacks like these that we consider drastic measures in response — drastic times call for drastic measures, right?

While we can mourn for those that we have lost in these attacks, it is crucial not to allow our emotions to guide our next moves. We should not allow these attacks to make us so scared that we forget about the freedoms and the values that Canadian soldiers, including the brave soldier at the war memorial, died for.

Canada is a free country. Being a free country comes with some dangers, including being a target for those who think the world would be better off without democracies like Canada. What we can’t do is abandon being Canadian, because, ultimately, that’s exactly what terrorists want us to do.

Yesterday was a hard day. There could be more hard days to come. But there is strength in unity, and there is strength derived from being true to the principles that make this country great. Now’s a good time to be united, and unafraid.

Stone Mills Family Market recently presented a cheque to the Tamworth Volunteer Fire Department for $1,304, representing the store’s community appreciation barbecue last month. From left are store owners Larry and Kim McCutcheon and firefighters and organizers Tim Kidd and Kevin Hughes. The event included free food, drinks and draw prizes, and ‘Lily the Fairy’ was on site doing ‘fairy makeovers.’ Not surprisingly, the fire station’s trucks were on display as well. The money will be used to purchase equipment and tools for the department.

OFA FROM PAGE 6 OFA is working towards both through important changes to the Long Term Energy Policy to affect electricity rates as well as expanding access to natural gas.

We’ve had success in expanding natural gas infrastructure across rural Ontario and applaud the government’s announcement of loans and small grants for natural gas infrastructure. The clear benefits of rural natural gas in growing our farm and agrifood economy will be used to plan further expansion of the gas network. We know that affordable energy for rural Ontario is key to help our industry meet the Premier’s challenge of creating 120,000 more jobs by 2020. And we’ll work with rural municipalities that are interested in natural gas as a component of economic development.

Many factors can and will contribute to success in farming and the agri-food industry.

Access to a skilled workforce is quickly becoming an important factor in limiting our ability to grow. There are already two to three jobs available for each agriculture graduate.

Damage done by trespassers and lost productivity due to invasive species or poorly constructed regulations may sound minor but they do affect our ability to sustain and grow our farming businesses and the agri-food sector. OFA will be addressing these and many other issues with the Ontario government as we work collaboratively on a business environment that enables us to keep growing Ontario.

The OFA has a full legislative agenda this fall. Watch for continued updates and information on these issues affecting Ontario’s agri-food industry.

Mark Wales is the president of the OFA.

Books about books I love it when the title I am reading is a story about a book or booklover… anything to do with the pleasures of reading and the people who enjoy it. These run the gamut from love stories (William Goldman’s The Princess Bride) and mysteries (The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield) to YA (Markus Zusak’s The Book Thief) and even dystopian novels (Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451). Here are a few more well-loved books that celebrate the love of reading.

Published just this year, The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin is a recent favorite of mine partially because the protagonist is a huge book snob. A.J. Fikry, the owner of a book store, is grieving the loss of his wife, his sales are down, and a valuable rare book has been stolen from this shop. He’s depressed and is turning more and more inward, cutting himself off from those around him. Fate intervenes when one night he finds a special package on his bookshop floor, changing his life forever. A must for book lovers and booksellers alike, The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry is an affirmation of the love of books and reading

and how they meld lives together.

People of the Book by Geraldine Brooks is about the Sarajevo Haggadah one of the earliest Jewish religious volumes to be illuminated with images. The Haggadah has survived centuries of purges and wars thanks to people of all faiths who have risked their lives to safeguard it.

It is 1996 and Hanna Heath, an impassioned rareColes’ book expert is restoring the manuscript in Sarajevo. While readers experience crucial moments in the book’s history through a series of fascinating, short stories, Hanna pursues its secrets scientifically, and finds that some individuals will still risk everything in the name of protecting this treasure. People of the Book is a love story, thrilling mystery, vivid history lesson – all in one!

In The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, it is 1945 and Barcelona is enduring the long aftermath of civil war. A bookseller decides his son Daniel is old enough to visit the secret Ceme-

tery of Forgotten Books – a library tended by Barcelona’s guild of rare-book dealers as a storehouse for books forgotten by the world.

Daniel’s father encourages him to choose a book from the shelves, so Daniel selects at random The Shadow of the Wind by Julian Carax. He loves the novel so much that he sets out to find the rest of Carax’s work.

He shockingly disNotes covers that someone has been systematically destroying every copy of every book this author has written. In fact, he may have the last of Carax’s books in existence. Soon Daniel’s seemingly innocent quest opens a door into one of Barcelona’s darkest secrets–an epic story of murder, madness, and doomed love.

In The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett, Queen Elizabeth II drifts accidentally into reading when her corgis stray into a mobile library parked at Buckingham Palace. She’d never taken much interest in reading. She read, of course, as one did, but liking books was something she left

Catherine Coles

to other people. As surprising to herself as to those who know her, the queen develops into a dedicated, avid reader of serious literature, and the court and her government are sent reeling by this new royal practice. This novella is so quotable, it made me laugh out loud and I was very sorry when it ended.

Reserve any of the titles mentioned here at the County of Lennox & Addington Libraries.

NOTE: In last week’s column about this year’s Giller Prize nominations, Tell, Francis Itani’s latest book which is set in Deseronto, was left out. Tell is set in 1919, only months after the end of the Great War, while the men and women of Deseronto struggle to recover from wounds of the past, both visible and hidden. Kenan, a young soldier who has returned from the war damaged and disfigured, confines himself to his small house on the Bay of Quinte while his wife, Tress, attempts to adjust to the trauma that overwhelms her husband and which has changed their marriage.

Catherine Coles is the Manager of Library Services for Lennox and Addington.

Letter to the Editor

Memorial run made for moving tribute I would like to thank all those who supported this year’s National Peace Officers’ Memorial Run as it made its way through Greater Napanee.

Many thanks to representatives from town hall, local firefighters, Quinte Detention Centre staff and ICIT members, the local probation/parole office, Corrections Services Canada, and all of the other local citizens who supported the barbecue.

A total of $460 was raised in support of the ‘Run to Remember’ event. To Stacey and Jackie from the local detachment of the OPP:

thanks for making the route safe for the participants.

A correctional officer is often referred to as “The forgotten cop.”

QDC Correctional Officer Scott Jones did not forget the sacrifice made by C. O. Ira Smith on Jan. 15, 1959; while supervising inmates on a prisoner work farm, C. O. Smith was crushed to death beneath a pile of lumber in an industrial accident.

Even though Scott suffered from blistered feet and a painful knee, Scott said he was inspired to complete the 460-kilometer run by looking at the black armband he wore, with the name of C. O. Smith.

Asked if he would participate in the next year’s run, Scott said he “would do it again in a heartbeat.”

On behalf of the local peace officers and citizens of Greater Napanee, congratulations to Correctional Officer Jones and OPP Staff Sgt. Scott Semple, for your outstanding achievement in completing the NPOMR. We must never forget the ultimate sacrifice made by those who serve their community, province and country.

The Napanee Beaver welcomes letters to the editor.

Letters should be no more than 300 words, and all letters must be signed.

The rise and fall of the purple finch It was just a few kilometres from where we live when I saw my first purple finches. I was barely in my twenties, and was a relative newcomer to the ranks of the birding fraternity. Pretty much any species was a fresh entry on my life list! It was March and the birds were coming to a series of small hanging feeders that dangled in front of the living room windows.

This was also my first introduction to misnomers. These birds, at least the males, were not purple, but looked more like they had been dipped in raspberry juice, then left out in the sun to dry. Their also host didn’t know too much about why they were there, except to consume vast quantities of sunflower seed, and wasn’t sure where they came from each spring, or where they were going, after they disappeared in April. The colourful sparrow-like birds simply arrived every March, without fanfare, and without revealing many secrets.

When the birds first arrived at my own feeders, they numbered only two — a male and a female, and I was overjoyed to know that I was now going to experience my very own purple finches, albeit only two. By the end of the week, there were close to 75 purple finches that

descended on my feeding station every morning, all of them vying for space at my small self-feeders, arguing amongst themselves with excitable notes that sounded more like creaky door hinges.

In the afternoon, they retired to the backyard, in a grove of poplars, where they produced an ongoing musical warble that was as natural as the rippling of a mountain brook.

We haven’t seen purple finches in such numbers for several decades. They are declining and bird feeder operators want to know why. The principal cause of the decline may be the absence of large outbreaks of spruce budworm. Some think the decline was caused, at least in part, to the appearance of the very similar house finch which exploded in numbers shortly after its arrival to eastern Lake Ontario in the 1970s. At feeders, the new arrivals were competitors. In aggressive interactions, the house finch nearly always won.

Purple finches, in their traditional spring arrival at their customary bird feeders didn’t stand much of a chance.

The house finch made its Ontario debut in 1972, interestingly at Prince Edward Point, and within 10 years were among the most common species at bird feeders all along the Lake

Terry Sprague

Outdoor Rambles Ontario and Erie shorelines.

House finches, natives of western North America, were introduced to the eastern states around 1940, when caged birds were illegally released in New York.

Purple finches were always more common in these parts during spring and fall migrations, than they were as a nesting species. They prefer coniferous growths, so are therefore more commonly encountered as a nesting species in the boreal forests, and only occasionally may be found nesting here, and are almost entirely absent from the extensively cultivated areas of southwestern Ontario. House finches on the other hand are quite at home nesting in a hang-

ing flower pot, or in an ornamental wreath hanging on a door, which is where I found my first nest, in Bloomfield, in 1990. So, as a species that really isn’t into a set migration pattern like most species, preferring instead to move about from feeder to feeder in loose winter flocks, and has nesting habits not unlike those of the house sparrow, it already has the upper hand when purple finches arrive. Purple finches are treated as interlopers in a territory already claimed by more resident house finches. Purple finches are short distance migrants, wintering not far south of their breeding range. They don’t seem to be into the long drawn out migrations of insectivorous warblers, for example, that winter in northern South America.

So where does that leave the hapless purple finch that some of us remember appearing in such flocks at our bird feeders in past years? Is the bird doomed to extinction, or perhaps local extirpation? Probably not, but we will likely never enjoy the large numbers of past years when 50 or more at feeders every spring was the norm.

Although similar, purple finches and house finches are not that difficult to tell apart. Male house finches are a rosy pink colour and very smooth, while

male purple finches are larger and more robust. The females are easier to tell apart. The female house finch is grey and softly textured, lightly striped on the breast, with no noticeable facial markings. Female purple finches have coarser features, are more heavily striped and have a noticeable broad, white stripe behind each eye.

Like most finch species, the purple finch tends to be cyclic, erupting in somewhat larger numbers across portions of their winter range, which is probably attributed to successes and failures in conifer seed crops. Last winter many purple finches stayed in the boreal forest because of bumper seed crops there. This fall most of them should migrate south of Ontario because many coniferous and deciduous tree seed crops are poor in central and northeastern Ontario. When purple finches leave Ontario in October and November, they return in midApril to mid-May to breed. At feeders Purples prefer sunflower seeds.

‘Ombre’ design trend makes the gradient A C K

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 50 Years Ago October 21, 1964 n Testing of a quarry near Napanee as a potential new water source for the town suggested that it provided no immediate advantage over the town’s current water supply source, that being the Napanee River.

The water taken from a quarry on Roblin Hill showed the water to be very clear — more clear than the water taken from the river. It was also shown to have a similar iron content to the water taken from the river.

Since the quarry water — which was being fed by a spring — and the river water showed little difference in terms of quality, there was no need to pursue it further as a possible source, water officials determined. n Local farmers rallied to help one of their own when he was injured in an accident.

Clifford Frisken had the tips of three of his fingers cut off in an ensilage cutter, and was unable to do his regular farm duties.

In response, several local farmers with 20 tractors arrived at his Selby farm to plow his fields for him on Thanksgiving. Besides the fall plowing, the farmers also applied fertilizer to the land.

To thank the farmers, the Friskens invited them to a Thanksgiving dinner.

35 Years Ago October 24, 1979 n The principal of Ernestown Secondary School said that the Odessa high school was in desperate need of capital improvements.

During a speech at the school’s commencement ceremonies, Maurice Sheridan said he was worried that deficiencies at the school would compromise students’ education and safety.

“We have overcrowded areas, obsolete equipment, and classrooms that are not only inadequate to provide the programs insisted upon by the Ministry of Education, but are dangerous to the student,” he said.

Sheridan urged parents to lobby local school board trustees to invest in upgrades. n Some ongoing issues surrounding the provincial Ministry of Community Services and the Ministry of Environment raised the ire of South Fredericksburgh Reeve Noble (Jack) Drew.

Drew made the comments in an address to his fellow L&A County council members.

Drew was upset with the MOE’s handling of suspected agriculture pollution of Hay Bay in his township, and was upset about perceived inequalities between L&A and other jurisdictions in social services funding.

One design trend that is seen in fashion, hair and interior design is that of ombre. Ombre is based on a colour change from dark to light tones or from one shade to another. This technique can also be called degrade or gradient.

From runways to home décor, ombre has made quite an impact on the design industry over the past years.

Ombre decoration patterns, wall painting ideas and prints effortlessly bring elegance and bohemian chic into modern interior design and home décor. The technique is versatile for any room or works for all interior design styles, adding sophistication and artistic charm to home decorating ideas.

Merola Tahamtan

Design Time Luxurious light to dark shades creates a dramatic effect wherever they are used. Ombre style can be found everywhere and on everything. It can be incorporated on various styles fading from dark to light or light to dark. Gradient furniture and decorations can be beautifully displayed in modern and traditional houses and residences due to their versatility and visual appeal. You can enjoy this modern style using it from furniture and textiles to walls and other artistic decorations for your home.

Ombre effect in interior design can be expressed using furniture. This technique is particularly relevant in relation to frame structures: cupboards and drawer units, which come with doors or drawers. You don’t need to buy finished coloured furniture, instead look at antique stores, garage sales, or Ikea for furniture with lines you

like. You will only need one can of white paint and one colour of the desired colour you want. By mixing them, you can get shades with different saturation, which will create the effect of ombre.

Ombre on the walls will be quite noticeable. This effect can be used in absolutely any room; the main thing is to choose the right colours. Implementation of such ideas requires a skilful approach since here ultimate accuracy of the artist with experience is needed. The artist must be able to create a colour transition using a nebulizer or small strokes, which id quite difficult, especially on such a large surface.

By using ombre effect on interior walls, it is

important to remember that in rooms with low and standard ceilings, darker shades should be at the bottom. This will visually increase the height of the space.

Textile manufacturers have also jumped aboard this fashion trend, so finding the fabric may not take as much effort. In window decorations, especially effective are lightweight materials, such as silk, linen, cotton and organza.

Gradient on these curtains will create a feeling of lightness. There are fabrics, where the gradient is applies like watercolour, but picturesque strokes.

Such an option is a great way to create an original and characteristic design of the window, as well as

harmoniously complement the overall design.

Today’s ombres show us that the trend is definitely in full force, the market is not yet saturated with affordable ombre pieces, which is why so many people are taking matters into their own hands and creating their own ombre artwork, textiles, walls and painted furniture. Why not create your own DIY project this weekend?

Town of Deseronto Deputy Mayor Clarence Zieman is running for the position of councillor and hopes to be elected in order to pass along his knowledge and expertise to the new council.

Zieman has been on Town of Deseronto council since the late 1970s, first as a councillor. He said he’s happy to take a step back to allow new leaders the opportunity to bring fresh ideas to Deseronto.

“I want to encourage others to move up the ladder. I’ve been a mayor, I’ve been a deputy mayor, I was a warden of Hastings County in 2006, I don’t need those positions in order to serve my community, I want someone else to be able to step up,” he said.

Since all of Deseronto’s current councillors are vying for a higher position, except for Zieman, the next council will be comprised of new individuals.

“Our council is going to change. No matter what happens we’re going to have at least two new members on council, and there could be three new members. But I hope I am there in order to guide and give my experience to those new members,” he said.

Zieman is a retired accountant and is currently working as a security guard at Millhaven Institution. With this, he brings expertise in budgeting and problem solving skills to the council table.

“I want to keep on working. If you don’t have something to do, your mind becomes stagnant. That’s why I like council. I love the community and I like to pick up arguments if necessary. I will stand up for what I believe is right,” he said, giving example to last year’s budget.

ZIEMAN

“I didn’t think our budgeting was done properly... I said, ‘This is not right,’ and I voted against it,” he said.

“Last year’s budget, for one, was not generated by, I felt, the council. A budget has to have all of the players included when it’s being developed,” he went on.

Zieman said budgeting is one of the most important duties in serving on council.

“Budgeting was a key component with my duties in my life. In a municipality, a budget is kind of the Bible of that municipality. It’s the map, the framework, of what you’re going to do for that year and maybe even the years out. The budget is the prime directive of the municipality. It highlights and identifies what that municipality is going to do in that coming year, what they’re going to do with their financial resources,” explained Zieman.

One of his major focuses, if elected, will be the budget. He said he wants to have more input from all councillors, as well as from staff and the community.

In order to keep taxes low, Zieman suggests council consider developing more houses.

“I think if we can build, let’s say 10 houses, in a

year, that would generate somewhere between $15,000-$20,000 of additional revenue,” he said.

“It’s our position to try to enhance (the tax dollars), and the only way we can do that is either by raising the taxes or add houses, which generates more revenue for us.”

Zieman said council should also continue working toward developing the waterfront, which will not only make Deseronto more attractive to newcomers and tourists but will also help to bring more revenue to the town.

“We talked about putting a marina in but we just can’t afford that. It’s a $9 million project and we just can’t undertake that at all,” admitted Zieman, stating there are still many ways to develop the waterfront.

“I believe we need to do that but I think on a smaller scale,” he said. “It’s important that we look at it, but realistically look at it, and ask: ‘What can we do with our money to make this town look more attractive?’ and the waterfront is one of the key components.”

Zieman said increasing docking will provide more opportunity for tourists to come to Deseronto, as well as improve the look of the waterfront.

“Whatever we do is an attraction, it’s a selling feature for the town,” he said.

Zieman said decreased policing costs should result in lower taxes; however, he fears council may also lose some government grants when policing costs are decreased.

He said the Town of Deseronto paid about $600 per household for policing.

However, the municipality received about $150 per household in government grants, making policing costs about $450/household in Deseronto.

“I’m not sure what’s going to happen to that

grant we were getting.

We’re seeing a reduction in the actual cost, but are they going to reduce the grant? We’re going to probably lose those grants,” he said.

Still, he said reduced policing cost will guarantee costs will not continue to increase as they have in the past. And, he expects Deseronto to still see a reduction in costs paid by the municipality, which will allow taxes to raise by only one to three per cent in future.

Another reason Zieman would like to stay on another term is to see projects completed that he’s been working on for some time.

“We’re going to redo the water and sewer plant and I’d like to see that finished,” he said, as chair of the committee. “The next one is to redo our water plant, which is about 40 years old. That has to be upgraded. That’s what we’re looking at now. I’d like to see those two finished before I leave council and those are a few big reasons why I’m running for council.

“The other is that I’m also the chair of economic development and I’d like to see that develop as well and look at what we can do in our community to build up the assessment. We lack assessment in the community and assessment helps determine what to charge for taxes,” he said, reiterating the importance of increased housing in Deseronto.

Zieman is running for the position of councillor against four new candidates: Deanna Martin Deary, Catherine Houard, Trish Dickinson, and Steven Everhardus. Zieman is currently the Town of Deseronto deputy mayor. Councillors Dan Johnston and Edgar Tumak are competing for the position of deputy mayor.

Deseronto

Waterfront, budget key priorities for Everhardus

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

Local teacher, volunteer and lifetime Deseronto resident Steven Everhardus, is running for council.

Everhardusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; goals are to improve Deserontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s waterfront, create a balanced budget with funds set aside in reserves, and to ensure the municipality is planning for its future.

Everhardus is a teacher with the Hastings and Prince Edward School board. On top of that, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s active within the Teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Federation and a director for Habitat for Humanityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hastings and Prince Edward branch in Belleville. Now he wants to get more involved in the happenings in his hometown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just the right time to start getting more involved with the community and make some decisions that will help the community move forward in the next four years,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My goal would be to try to keep the taxes relatively low,â&#x20AC;? he said. In order to do so, he said a detailed plan, a balanced budget and further development must be done. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When people get a five or six per cent tax hike, it really is bad for the morale of the communityâ&#x20AC;Ś Taxes need to be kept in line. It gets down to the idea of planning: planning for the future, planning years in advance,â&#x20AC;? said Everhardus. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Having a long-term plan with the money will help to keep our tax increases to a reasonable amount, under or at the rate of inflation,â&#x20AC;? he explained.

He said reviewing services would help the municipality determine a long-

EVERHARDUS

term plan, both financially and in the direction of development. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think every community should periodically look at the services theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re providing and see what those services are doing for the community. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very proud of the services we have in our town: we have a fantastic little library, we have an award winning transit program that is becoming more and more used by Napanee, Picton and Belleville, I think what we did with our LED street lights was great,â&#x20AC;? he said.

By reviewing services, the municipality may find further ways to operate more efficiently, such as the LED street light replacement program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think looking at everything with an eye to save a little bit of money might be a good idea. I have tremendous pride for what Deseronto has,â&#x20AC;? said Everhardus.

Another aspect of Deseronto that brings Everhardus great pride is the waterfront, as well as what the municipality has done to develop it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the waterfront is key to any community

with waterfront, like Deseronto. It stretches for almost three kilometers along the town, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing. It is something thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been underdeveloped,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding the waterfrontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history should be highlighted more in future development phases. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you had gone through Deseronto 100 years ago, you would have seen the railway yard that would have happened here, you would have seen factories, you would have seen a different type of waterfront, a more industrialized waterfront. Over the last century, that has all winded down. The waterfront is something that Deseronto needs to focus on for sureâ&#x20AC;Ś Working together to revitalize it and make it an open community space is definitely important,â&#x20AC;? said Everhardus.

When it comes to OPP costs, Everhardus said he is relieved costs will be decreasing but said the municipality should join together with its neighbours to convince higher levels of government to continue to decrease costs in the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think maybe if our municipalities in our area, and Hastings, and Lennox and Addington, maybe talk a little more openly about the problems theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re facing and develop more commu-

nication on this, we could really lobby Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park a little harder as a group. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a big expense for all our municipalities,â&#x20AC;? he said.

When the municipality does see savings in 2015, Everhardus said those funds should be set aside in order to guarantee taxes do not increase. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The OPP costs will be going down so we should see a savings on our budget. From there, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to actually put that savings in a reserve fund and not touch it until we need to tap into that to give our residents a break from property tax increases,â&#x20AC;? he said.

As part of council, Everhardus wants to look for ways to save the municipality money by compiling a detailed plan for the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think one thing that Deseronto really could capitalize on is a plan for the future that really separates our key needs. We have a lot of infrastructure in town that will need to be looked at,â&#x20AC;? he said.

One example Everhardus used was the Town of Deserontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water and sewer plant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely something we need to look (ahead) to and I think big projects like that, planning for them over the next four years, is going to be really

critical,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Everhardus is running for council against Town of Deserontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current deputy mayor, Clarence Zieman, as well as three new candi-

dates: Deanna Martin Deary, Catherine Houard, and Trish Dickinson.

Three people will be elected to the position of councillor.

Stone Mills Township

Outgoing reeve aims for councillor spot

BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

Dinner’s getting cold Sent 7:47 PM

sorry running late at the slots trying to win back our savings xo Read 7:50 PM

When Doug Bearance decided he wouldn’t run for re-election as reeve of Stone Mills in the upcoming municipal election, it ensured there’d be a new face leading the township for the next four years.

“I’ve been reeve twice, and served on county council for two terms. I’ve been warden (of Lennox and Addington County) for a couple of terms, and I think it’s about time that I let somebody else step up to the plate,” he said.

Bearance, however, says he still has something to give to the township — that’s why he’s seeking one of five councillor positions being contested in the Oct. 27 vote. “With my past knowledge and everything, I think I can be an asset to the municipality, with the experience I’ve gained over the years,” he said. “Most situations that arise, a lot of them have (come in front of council) before. I’ve seen what’s happened in the past, so I think I can be an asset to the municipality.”

Some of those issues he faced as reeve, including the ongoing challenge of holding the line on taxes while grappling with ever-increasing expenses, will undoubtedly continue into the next term. “It’s extremely difficult because we don’t have the tax base like Loyalist and Napanee. Taking that into consideration, we’re just going to have to tighten the belt,” he said.

BEARANCE

“I’ve always looked after my own bucks, and I believe (handling a municipal budget) is like spending my own money. I spend it carefully,” said Bearance, who has operated two businesses in Stone Mills in the past.

He said that one of the ways in which the township can operate most costeffectively is to only begin new capital projects “when they can be paid for without borrowing or without having to raise taxes.”

He also says that the next council should “encourage new development to enlarge our tax base.” At the same time, he says that any new development “must fall within the current guidelines and bylaws in order to protect the citizens of Stone Mills.”

Bearance said he thinks the township has a role to play in helping to address the future of medical services in the township, a situation made

more pressing by the announcement by doctors at the Tamworth Medical Centre that they’d soon be retiring. “(The township should) work hand in hand with them to try to encourage other doctors to move in,” he said.

Bearance added that, if necessary, the township could provide financial incentives for prospective new doctors, though he admits it wouldn’t be his first choice. “That’s difficult, because I know that the doctors have been trying now for two or three years to try to recruit somebody, and they haven’t been able to,” he said.

Among other issues he’d like to see addressed over the next term is the remediation of the crumbling Colebrook dam. “The Colebrook dam is a high priority with me. I think that we should follow up and keep pushing to have that re-done,” he said.

He says he’s also supportive of heritage preservation within the township. “(We need to) pay more attention to our heritage to preserve our past with pride,” he said, “(and) continue to support our groups in the community who work hard to maintain the gems of our history we are still lucky to have.”

Besides serving terms on both Sheffield and Stone Mills council, Bearance has also served terms on Portland and Central Frontenac councils, and as deputy-reeve of the former Hinchinbrooke Township.

Deseronto

Candidate looks to follow in father’s footsteps

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

Trish Dickinson, the daughter of a past Deseronto mayor, is running for a position on Deseronto council.

Peter Dickinson, who was mayor of Deseronto years ago, is Trish Dickinson’s father. She said growing up with a father as a mayor has shown her the commitment it will take to serve her community on council and that she is prepared to do everything she is able to do in order to improve the municipality for everyone.

“It was nice to see how he did it and what it did for the town. He worked toward building our community centre and when I was a child. I was involved in that ribbon cutting, it was a pretty happy moment,” said Dickinson.

“I think I could make Deseronto a better place to live. I’m very interested in the community a trying to build upon the past and make it a present that reflects upon the past we did have. We used to have a successful busy town and it would be nice to see that again,” she continued.

Already she has shown her commitment to the town by getting involved anywhere she can. She has volunteered for the waterfront festival, the Fixed Fur Life campaign, served on the board of directors for Deseronto Arts and Culture Society, is an active participant in the Deseronto Yacht Club, and has helped to plan community events. She also has a business background, which she said would be useful while serving on council.

“I feel that I would be a good voice to have on council. It’s nice to have a woman’s opinion,” she said.

“I look toward attracting and keeping the business that we have in Deseronto.

I think we really need to

DICKINSON

build our tax base by attracting some business.”

Part of the way in ensuring the business community is a success, is by ensuring the waterfront is properly developed and attracting tourism.

“It’s all integral to building the town, the waterfront,” she said.

“It’s important to the life of our town. When that marina was there, we had a lot of economic growth. The boaters used our stores, they used our services, they brought money to our town, which we were in dire need of.”

Dickinson hopes to keep taxes low, while not compromising the services the town currently enjoys.

In order to do so, she said communication and development must improve.

“We have to maintain and improve our taxes. We can’t lower them. There are lots of reasons why they are high, we do have some great services in Deseronto, our streets are very well maintained, we have great snow removal, I don’t want our residents to lose anything – I just think we have to show more accountability and have more communication to show people what their tax dollars are doing,” Dickinson said.

“I think communication is extremely important and that’s something that I

want to work on as a council member is to have more open communication with the residents, let everybody know what’s going on.”

In order to keep the budget balanced, Dickinson said the municipality should build stronger relationships with governments and with local neighbours in order to share and acquire more funds.

“We’ve got to (lobby) our federal and provincial members of parliament and see what grants are available. We’ve got a big water treatment expansion going on, we’ve got to seek out partnerships with all our neighbours to help with our budgeting and

look at what other people are doing,” she said, reiterating the importance of communication.

“I think communication is so important because we might see what another small municipality is doing to help with its budget, how they’ve found monies.

I think it’s very important to form partnerships with all our neighbours,” she continued.

With OPP costs decreasing next year, Dickinson said the funds the municipality saves should be spent toward better policing services in the Town of Deseronto.

“I guess I’m old fashioned but I think that seeing a police car driving

around town acts a deterrent. I believe strongly in that — the OPP feel differently. They think that doesn’t help, but I think it does.

I think it makes residents feel safer in their homes. If you know there’s a police officer driving around, it gives you a sense of security,” she said, stating the municipality should have 24/7 policing.

Another of Dickinson’s concerns is the Richmond Landfill. She said the Town of Deseronto must partner with its neighbouring communities to ensure that a new landfill isn’t built.

“Deseronto needs to stand united with Greater Napanee, Tyendinaga Township and the

Mohawks of Bay of Quinte to stand against any kind of expansion of Richmond Landfill. I think it’s very important to our town and to our neighbours to stop the expansion,” said Dickinson.

“We’ve already seen the damage that’s been done and I worry about our Bay of Quinte — for Deseronto that’s our main focus for tourism. I think that’s where we’re going to build our future,” she continued.

Dickinson is running for council against the current deputy mayor, Clarence Zieman, and three new candidates: Deanna Martin Deary, Catherine Houard, and Steven Everhardus.

Ex-councillor aims for comeback

Onetime Ward 2 (Sheffield) councillor Todd Hartin says he’s ready to jump back into the political arena.

Hartin — a local businessman who has served a term on Stone Mills council — has his sights set on one of five councillor positions up for grabs in the Oct. 27 municipal election. He says he can be an asset to council over the next four-year term.

“I just like to help out,” he said. “We’ve got a great township, and I’d like to see it grow in a positive way… it’s a civic duty, I guess.”

When asked what he believed were the biggest issues facing council, Hartin pointed to taxes and rising policing costs.

With respect to OPP costs, Hartin says there isn’t much council can do — but he’s open to doing what he can. “We have little control, but I’m willing to look at any way we can justify (those costs) in a more sensible way. I know the rest of Ontario is all doing the same thing, so OCTOBER 31 HALLOWEEN DANCE Napanee Legion is hosting a Halloween Dance with entertainment by Cowboys Don’t Cry.

something is going to happen with the policing.”

In terms of taxes, Hartin says fostering growth within the township is crucial, as opposed to cutting services currently enjoyed by township residents. To do that, he said the next council should make an effort to make Stone Mills more inviting to potential new residents.

“As far as getting the taxes (under control), basically in our township, it’s a bedroom community,” he said. “We have to make it easier for people to move into the township, make an

to retire sometime down the road. In order to make sure the township retains medical services after that point, Hartin advises examining what other jurisdictions have done to recruit and retain doctors.

“I think we need a steering committee put together to, not so much as reinvent the wheel on that, but see what other communities are doing and follow suit. If there is anything we can do to work with the doctors that are there now, I plan on fully meeting with them and seeing what their ideas are,” he said.

Hartin says he sees the township’s volunteers as one of Stone Mills’ greatest assets, and promises he won’t overlook them if elected. “We’ve got a tremendous fire department that’s all volunteer.

We’ve got tremendous service groups that are all volunteer. We have to embrace that part of our township,” he said.

“We need to give them the appreciation that they need and the help that they need. If they come to council with something, I’m wide open to help them with anything that they need to do,” he continued.

easier transition to move to the rural areas, and make it more economically sound to build here. That may mean lowering our building (fees), try to bring them down to make it more viable to build here.”

With a bigger assessment base, the financial burden facing the township would be borne by a greater number of residents — and offer a bit of property-tax relief.

“Basically, there are some tax savings to be had if we crunch the numbers a little bit better, but basically the growth of the (residential sector) would have a lot more impact,” he said.

He also says that attracting more residents to the township is an effective way to foster economic development, since businesses within Stone Mills would have more customers. In the meantime, Hartin says that council should do what it can support local businesses.

Hartin says he shares the concern of many residents regarding the future of medical services in the township; the two doctors at the Tamworth Medical Centre have advised the township of their intention

Stone Mills Township

Former reeve makes bid for councillor position

BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

Deb Thompson says she has the enthusiasm and experience to be an effective member of Stone Mills council.

Thompson — who has terms as councillor, deputy-reeve and reeve on Stone Mills council under her belt — is seeking one of five councillor positions in the upcoming municipal election.

“My most important thing is experience,” she said. “I’ve been on county council, I’ve been on township council. I’ve served in all areas and positions and committees. I understand the process, so my homework’s done. I’m ready to roll up my sleeves and deal with decisions.”

Thompson lives in Centreville, and has worked for the Limestone District School Board for 29 years.

She’s been Lion of the Year with the local Lions Club, and was named volunteer of the year by the township for her community service.

Thompson said she decided to make a comeback in municipal politics because she “truly believes in community service,” and believes she can have a positive impact as a member of council. “I want people to love where they live and to be able to invite more families to Stone Mills to boost and strengthen the economy,” she said.

And, it’s in building up the township’s tax base that Thompson predicts Stone Mills will alleviate much of the pressure on

kilometres) of roads in the county — the most bridges, the most dams, and they’re a vital part of the makeup of Stone Mills. Therefore, that budget is something that has to be maintained.

We can’t let Colebrook Dam go down. I don’t want my road closed, and neither does my neighbours,” she said.

With regard to the rising cost of policing, Thompson says that council’s ability to affect the bill for OPP is limited. That said, she says she’ll do what she can to lobby the provincial government in hopes of getting some relief. “I’m willing to go to the provincial government, or wherever I have to go, and say ‘enough is enough, we can’t pay anymore,’” she said. “It’s a vital protection service that we

have to maintain to some level in Stone Mills. It’s one of those pre-fixed provincial things that you have to ‘bite the bullet’ on. Do I like it? No I don’t. Can I fix it?

Probably not. But, I can be a noise.”

Recreation has always been a high priority for Thompson, and if elected she’ll continue to advocate to maintain and improve the township’s recreation programs and services, including the provision of programs for not just youth but adults and seniors as well.

However council approaches these or any other issues, Thompson says the township needs to have a vision and a strategy deal with those issues.

On that score, Thompson says she has both the

“strong voice” and the leadership skills to contribute to developing that vision.

“I want to see Stone Mills nurtured, the services protected, environment and waterways maintained and an action plan reflected on the hard work and strength of a future council,” she said. “We need to promote and initiate an action plan that works and serves this township in agriculture, industry, lakes, bridges and dams, the arts, medical and fire services, and history.”

She also sees her communications skills as an asset. “I want to be both approachable and visible to bridge the gap from the council table to the community,” she said.

ctober, Women’s History Month in Canada, is a time for Canadians to celebrate the achievements of women and girls as trailblazers across our history.

In 2014, the theme of Women’s History Month is Canadian Business Women – A Growing Economic Force. Our proud history has inspired – and continues to inspire – talented, innovative women and girls across Canada to pursue opportunities in the business world.

Did you know that, according to RBC Economics reports, majority-owned women’s businesses contributed an estimated $148 billion to the Canadian economy in 2011? Or that women-owned businesses currently employ over 1.5 million Canadians, according to BMO Financial Group? These are only a few examples that demonstrate how the accomplishments of these women have helped make Canada the great nation that it is and continues to thrive as a result.

Canadian Business Women – A Growing Economic Force is an inspiring and

timely theme for Women’s History Month 2014 in Canada, as the Government of Canada works towards its priority: jobs, growth and long-term prosperity.

FACTS Women represent 47.3% of the labour force today, up from 45.7% in 1999 and 37.1% in 1976.

In 2011, women held majority ownership of 16% of small- and medium-sized businesses; however, women are more likely to own small businesses than medium-sized ones.

In 2011, women had sole-ownership of 14% of small businesses and only 4% of medium-sized businesses.

According to the BMO Financial Group, women-owned businesses currently employ over 1.5 million Canadians.

RBC Economics reports that, in 2011, the aggregate contribution of majority-owned women’s business was an estimated $148 billion.

In 2013, women held 52% of professional business and financial positions and 29% of senior management positions. This repre-

sents an increase from 1987, when women held 38% of professional business and financial positions and 21% of senior management positions.

In 2007, majority women-owned small and medium-sized enterprises tended to favour the retail, professional services and tourism sectors.

In a 2012 study by BMO Financial Group, 71% of women indicated that they would like to start their own business.

Aboriginal women make up 37% of all Aboriginal self-employed people, and 51% of Aboriginal-owned small- and mediumsized enterprises belong to women, either entirely or in part.

Over the past three decades, women’s participation in the Canadian workforce has more than doubled, to approximately 47%.

Women now earn over half of all Canadian university degrees, and 34.5% of the Masters of Business Administration (MBAs) granted in 2011 were to women. In addition, women represented 47% of students in business and management programs at the master’s level in 2010

community.”

Milligan — who works at the Goodyear Napanee plant and has lived most of his life in Tamworth — said that the No. 1 concern he’s been confronted with while campaigning is taxes. “From what I’m hearing, the biggest issue is our taxes, just to get our taxes under control, back even with neighbouring townships,” he said.

As far as solutions go, Milligan says that the next council needs to keep a close eye on the fiscal bottom line. “We’re really going to have to go over our budget with a fine-toothed comb,” he said. “Nobody wants their services cut or anything like that. We just really have to budget properly.”

Milligan also says the township should take a closer look at the arrangements it has with other levels of government, including the County of Lennox and Addington to ensure the municipality is getting a fair shake. “We

Sean Milligan, a candidate for councillor in the Stone Mills municipal election, says he’s ready to “give back”’ if he’s elected on Oct. 27.

have more than 700 kilometres of roads in our township, and 40 per cent of those roads are county roads. Are we getting our fair share from the county to cover the cost of those roads, especially for snow plowing in the winter?” he said.

The other major issue Milligan says he’s been confronted with is the future of health care serv-

ices in Stone Mills. He said that as the doctors at the Tamworth Medical Centre plan for their retirement, the township needs to start planning for their replacement. “The doctors in Tamworth and Newburgh are both very important, and to try to get new doctors is going to be a challenge. I’m very willing to work with the doctors and the community to try to get new doctors in. The answer to that, how we’re going to do it?”

Whatever the solution, he said that the township can “most definitely” play a role in the effort to find it.

Milligan said that, if elected, he’d advocate for the township to become more active in promoting growth in Stone Mills. He also said that, in many ways, the municipality has characteristics that need to be better marketed and promoted. “We’ve got a lot of people, unique people, in our township, and we’ve got a lot of services, like with ball fields and recre-

Milligan said that the township could develop a better online presence to entice more people and more investment into the municipality.

One issue Milligan says he doesn’t plan on bringing up should he gain a spot on council for the next term is the new voting system, which changed from a ward-based system in favour of at-large voting in time for this year’s election.

“The ward system is gone. Let’s move on and become one community,” he said.

While living in the township, Milligan has attended both NDSS and Tamworth Public School, and has been a member of the township’s volunteer fire department. He has assisted in various community events, including youth hockey and baseball.

Stone Mills Township

Council veteran says he has experience to offer

BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

Whatever issues might come in front of Stone Mills council in the upcoming term, Doug Davison says, if re-elected, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have the benefit of 35 years of municipal council experience in dealing with them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In my case, I decided to run for re-election because I thought my experience, both in business â&#x20AC;&#x201D; work-related â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and on council, was needed,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I find from time to time that the historical perspective that I can bring and the work ethic that I have (is needed)â&#x20AC;Ś I do my homework. I read it. I challenge questions in it, and I bring those questions forward.â&#x20AC;?

In a few cases, in fact, Davison says the next council would be well served by employing some of the strategies used in the past, including reviving some of the townshipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s old committees. He pointed to the former arena committees and waste management committees in particular. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(We had)

DAVISON

some people who could really work and bring a lot to the table,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would like to bring back the use of committees that contain more volunteer expertise to work with council members to focus on specific issues.â&#x20AC;?

Davison said that, with or without the benefit of committees, council should be working harder than it is right now. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I see that our council meetings are getting, I think, too short. The council itself, I think, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

working hard enough, and to be quite honest, two onehour meetings a month are not accomplishing anything,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The one thing I do feel is most important is, we need to elect a council that is willing to do a little more work, roll up (its) sleeves and sit down and tackle individual issues. I see that as a priority for me. I really am a bit of an optimist, and believe that there are very few problems you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t solve if you put the right group of people together,â&#x20AC;? he said.

One of those problems he sees on the horizon is the recruitment of new doctors to the township, an issue made more pressing by the pending retirement of the doctors at the Tamworth Medical Centre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to get together with the South East Local Health Integration Network, whose job it is to recruit doctors, and see what we can do to partner with the LHIN to help them and with the doctors,â&#x20AC;? Davison said.

Davison said that, in talking to local businesspeople, economic develop-

Again, he suggested that a co-operative approach in addressing challenges faced by businesses might be the best. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a very good conversation with a small business owner in Newburgh the other day,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He suggestedâ&#x20AC;Ś if we had a roundtable that had members of council and members of different segments of the small business population, who could go and meet and talk about

issues and concerns, maybe we could develop some ways to help and encourage those small businesses.â&#x20AC;?

Davison said that, regardless the issue, he advocates taking a more â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;hands onâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; approach to dealing with it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like the process of just handing it over to staff and saying â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;bring it back with a recommendationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to be involved with the decision.

Local homebrewer finds recipe for success

BY SETH DUCHENE Editor

Despite having brewed beer for only the last two-and-ahalf years, it’s abundantly clear that Geordan Saunders is getting the hang of it.

He’s been so good, in fact, that Saunders’ suds were being served at the local pub.

Saunders entered a Belgian double ale he brewed in a recent home-brewing competition sponsored by Railway City Brewing in St. Thomas, and won. Now, his brew has been mass produced as part of a limited edition offering through Railway City.

Saunders’ beer — a surprisingly smooth-drinking strong ale dubbed Platform 14 Big Hook — was on tap at the Waterfront Pub in Napanee, although both the pub and the brewery have since sold out of the beer.

(The Waterfront says it’s lobbying the brewery to make some more of what proved to

be a popular offering).

Saunders, who works part time in Toronto through the week but currently resides near Napanee, is part of a small but quickly-growing group of home brewers, who concoct various kinds of beer as a hobby. He said he stumbled onto it only relatively recently. “Two-and-a-half years ago I was reading an article online about something kind of unrelated, but there was a line in it about somebody who made their own beer. It was like lightning stuck. ‘You can make beer at home?’ It blew my mind,” he said.

His wife bought him a basic home-brewing kit, and it took off from there. “It was essentially just a bucket and a little thing with malt sugar and some hops,” he said. “From there, I’ve gone nuts. I’ve got a fully electric brewery in my house now.”

For him, home-brewing fits in well with his “handson and finicky” nature. “I didn’t mind beer, and I

enjoyed craft beer, but I wasn’t a beer snob of any sort. I got into brewing because I liked the technical aspect,” he said.

However, he’s also become more involved with the local home-brewing community, which he says has grown exponentially in just a short time. “The hobby is progressing hugely… It’s in lock-step with craft brewing now. It’s exploding,” he said.

He said he’s part of a group called Kingston and Area Brewers of Beer, which meets regularly and holds its own competitions.

And it’s competition that has added a new element to Saunders’ hobby.

The Railway City competition isn’t the only one he’s won — he also took home a best-in-show award for one of his beers at Toronto Beer Week in 2013. “Usually when I’m brewing I’m looking to win something. I’m brewing for a competition, for a style,” he said.

Ironically, the Iron City entry didn’t fall into that

category. He said that he was developed the beer while visiting a fellow home-brewer in Hamilton.

“He had just put in a whole new system and I went up to visit him… and I said ‘let’s do a big, crazy, strong beer that is going to age until the next time I see you.’ I entered it just on a

whim, and it cleaned up,” he said. “This was a dark horse.”

While he says he enjoys the hobby, Saunders says that’s what it will remain for the immediate future: a hobby. That said, he admits he thinks about what it might be like to get into the brewing business full-time.

“It’s definitely an all-consuming hobby, and it’s one of those professions that you think about sometimes while you’re sitting in the office at the desk and you’re on your fourth conference call of the day and you think, ‘You know, I could be brewing professionally,’” he said.

Raiders hover at .500 mark Napanee secures four of six points

Jr. Hawks can’t slow LSS running game NDSS to face Regi in semis

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

Though it certainly wasn’t their intention, the NDSS Golden Hawks junior football team paved themselves a difficult road to a KASSAA championship.

With complete control over their playoff seeding the Hawks dropped a 42-7 decision to Regi on Thurs-

day followed by a 21-6 loss to La Salle on Tuesday to close out the regular season 3-3. Both were home games for the Hawks.

Early on the Hawks were moving the ball well against the Black Knights in Tuesday’s soggy affair.

Quarterback Nic Nieman rushed through a wall of defenders to put the Hawks up 6-0 late in the first half.

The lead was short lived however as on the next possession the Knights pulled off a reverse play that translat-

ed to a 60 yard touchdown in the final seconds of the half. They added the extra point. They weren’t quite done there, kicking the ball into Napanee’s endzone on their return kick. Napanee’s defense opted to take a knee and trade the single point for better position.

Once the second half got under the way the Knights pulled off another successful reverse to go up 14-6. They sealed the win with another touchdown in the fourth.

Just over a quarter into their 40 game season the Napanee Raiders are yet to give fans any sense of constancy.

Following a mini-collapse to start Tuesday night’s second period, the Raiders fell 6-4 to the visiting Port Hope Panthers to even their season record at 5-5-1.

The teams were tied 11, courtesy a shorty from Napanee’s Josh Murphy, heading into the break. It wasn’t long before the Panthers busted out after the period opening draw however, potting three goals in less than five minutes to start to run away. The third goal in the flurry chased Tomo Mikuljan from the crease in favour of Sam McDonald.

Austin Boulard and Troy Wylie each netted a goal a minute apart in the frame to cut the Panthers’ lead to 5-3 and make a game of it. Brodie Butt added one in the third but was offset by Dan Lagrois

“It was a terrible start to the second half,” said Raiders head coach Mike Hartwick. “We didn’t come out hungry. We usually play well in the second period but didn’t tonight and (Port Hope) took advantage and they jammed the net.”

Perhaps most frustrating about the loss was that it came just after the Raiders had appeared to turn a corner, posting a 5-3 win in Deseronto Friday night followed by a 3-0 victory at home over Amhestview on Saturday. Kyle

Murphy scored twice in Saturday’s shutout win, sandwiched around a goal from Josh Murphy. Mikuljan stopped all 26 Jet shots.

On Friday they had to do a bit of rallying, climbing back from a 2-1 deficit midway though the game to seal the win. Jag Masters opened the scoring for Napanee just 2:33 into the game. Bobby Breadman and Brett Maracle responded for the Storm but were quickly outdone by a pair of Boulard goals.

Loyalist golf course gifted with second GWC hosting gig Bath announced as PGA Tour Canada event in 2015 after Belleville backs out of running

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

o impressed with Bath's Loyalist Golf and Country Club's hosting abilities this past summer, organizers for the Great Waterway Classic golf tournament felt one good round deserved another.

That’s why, rather unexpectedly, tournament organizers announced Friday that LGCC will get a second opportunity to host the PGA Tour Canada event, Aug. 24-30 2015.

“The community was so engaging, and so embracing of the event from a volunteer perspective, from a housing perspective and from corporate support,” said tournament director Brad Parkins. “All the feedback that we got from the players from the tour was overwhelming positive.

Certainty we’re excited to be back there for next year.”

Back in August David Bradshaw of West Virginia claimed the 2014 title with

S

his final putt, ending with a birdie on the 72nd hole to edge Tommy Cocha and Adam Long by one stroke in a thrilling finish.

When it was first announced in 2012, the Great Waterway Classic was scheduled to make stops in Gananoque in 2012, Morrisburg in 2013, Loyalist in 2014 and finish in Belleville in 2015. The first three tournaments went according to plan but it recently became clear that Belleville wouldn’t be a suitable host for 2015.

“We went down the road Black Bear in Belleville, which was the original plan back in 2012,” said Parkins. “Unfortunately we just weren’t able to come to terms together with Black Bear hosting the event. They were very positive in the conversation and things never went sour, it just wasn’t a relationship that was going to work. We both certainly understood that. After the success we had this year Loyalist was willing to host again and put their name

Minutes after winning the 2014 Great Waterway Classic, David Bradshaw accepted the trophy and spoke in front of the ‘green army’ of volunteers. It was announced last Friday that the tournament will return to Bath in 2015. in the hat and after the way everything went in 2014 we were able to get an agreement signed, sealed

and delivered fairly quickly.”

Prior to hosting the event the first time around

Loyalist had never played home to an event of this scale. With one turn now to their credit Parkins proj-

ects the event will be that much more sound.

“For a first time event they certainly met expectations and certainly exceeded them from what we were looking for from a volunteer standpoint and even from the management team and what we did in the club house and everything like that,” said Parkins. “That being said there’s always opportunities to improve and enhance what we did.”

Bath’s own Austin James made for a nice home town story at the event as he was the only amateur to make the second round cut. He and good friend Josh Whalen of Napanee were two of five tournament exemptions who teed off in the tournament. Parkins says they plan to issues exemptions again for 2015 and both James and Whalen will get full consideration and could again play in the tournament again provided they post solid results through the spring and summer.

Minor Hockey Report

Plenty of action during Stars’ Minor Hockey Day Beaver Sports

As part of Minor Hockey Day, the McCaw Mortgage Team MD 7 Napanee Stars played on Saturday, and took on Clarington, where they registered one goal in this 5-1 loss.

Despite that, the Stars came to play hard Sunday against Ajax, as strong defensive and offensive play was seen throughout the game. Ajax scored with only 30 seconds left in the first, but Napanee’s Miles Jones was able to get the Stars on the board early in the second, pinching at the blue line, and carrying the puck down low and into the net. As the team continued to have strong offense throughout the second not giving Ajax any breathing Team

room to play 10 of 15 minutes in Ajax’s end. Mason Goodfellow got two more goals for the Stars within 10 seconds of each other.

This comfortable 3-1 lead led to the Stars easing off in the third to allow Ajax to tie the game at 3-3. The McCaw Mortgage Team MD 7 Napanee Stars registered a point to move up three spots in the Lakeshore MD 7 League. n The Napanee Country Traditions Novice Stars hosted Uxbridge on Saturday, and held early leads on goals by Caleb South and Duncan Clarke.

Zered Haller and Karter Vermilyea tallied assists.

the Uxbridge lead to 4-3.

South and Seth Rivers gained assists. However, the boys could not get the equalizer before time expired. Sunday, Clarington defeated the locals 4-1, with South getting the only marker, set up by Rivers. n The Napanee Major Atom Stars continued their regular season with a mid week clash in Cobourg versus the Cougars. The Stars took the lead with a goal by Reid Lambert midway through the first but the hosts were able to even the score within the final minute of the opening stanza. In the second the teams exchanged goals with Zach Slaven scoring for the locals. In the third, the hosts were awarded a penalty shot but the Cobourg shooter was not able to beat goaltender Ryan Aldridge. Play continued in the third with teams dead locked at two when the Stars got into penalty trouble taking back to back minors and giving up the eventual winner to lose 32. Assisting on Lambert’s goal were Jakob Dacosta and Quinton Pierce. Friday the Majors participated in the Kingston Tournament. The Stars went 3-1 in round robin play and entered the semis as the No. 1 seed. Napanee continued their strong play with a 2-0 semifinal win to go on to meet Quinte West in the finals.

The top seeds played an exciting final with the Hawks going on be the Major Atom A division champions with a 3-2 win.

The Stars will now prepare for three games in as many days. n Last Wednesday, the Gray’s IDA Minor Atom A Stars hosted Kingston, and impressed the home crowd to win 4-1. Goals and assists came from a number of players, including Brody Beaubien, and excellent defence from Ty Kemp and Gavin Brooks. Goaltender Holden Breault provided strong net coverage late in the game, and continued the momentum into Saturday, as they faced Pickering. After a scoreless first, Ethan Sutcliffe opened the scoring for the Stars. Following a back

and forth second period, the Stars pressed hard in the third, with the help of a goal from Daniel Chase and assisted offense from Aiden Haller-Brady, for a winning score of 4-3. On Sunday, they played a nail biter against Cobourg. The back and forth saw excellent two way play from Will Myers, with Napanee trailing most of the game. With 52 seconds left, Owen Maracle scored for the Stars, resulting in a 1-1 tie. The Gray’s Stars host Oshawa on Sunday at 1:30 p.m. n The Napanee Chiropractic.com Minor Peewees were in tight with Clarington on Saturday, losing 3-2.

After being down by two, Connor Brooks scored from Caden Holmes and Greg Mills with 13 seconds left in the second frame.

Dylan Bailey knotted the score at two early in the third with helpers going to Ryan Cunningham and Isaac Uens, before Clarington got the winner a minute later. On Sunday, their offense went missing as they fell 7-0 to Whitby White. n The Napanee Firelight Major Bantams came out strong in their battle with Port Perry last Saturday, with the game remaining scoreless for 31 minutes.

Both teams had their chances, but strong defensive play prevailed. For much of the game, the defensemen, Cal Doyle, Kyle Weese, Bruce Dunham, Eric Joyner, Cam McEwen, and Kiel Benton kept the Predators at bay.

Bailey Maracle stood tall between the posts all game.

With Seth Foster out with a broken leg and injuries during the game, the team had to juggle lines. Their guests did all their damage in a twominute span, tallying three times near the end of the second frame. In the third, Ryan McLay made it 3-1 on the power play, assisted by Steven Shea and Nelson Powers.

On Monday the Midgets played in Ajax in a late game. Ajax was the aggressor through the first two periods with the Stars down by five at the end of the second. Penalties continued to plague the boys throughout the game, particularly in the third when the boys were down 5-on-3 from the eight minute mark. Hayden Ford was spectacular in net, shutting down over 40 shots.

Anderson Scott scored the Star’s loan goal midway through the third. n The Chambers Paving Atom AE Stars welcomed Ajax and Whitby to the SPC, but unfortunately they lost 6-3 to Ajax and100 to Whitby. Austin Catena (two) and Dawson Wales scored for the Stars, assisted by Scott Collard. Jacob East and Nathaniel Cinnamon shared netminding duties, and played well.

Sunday, the AEs took to the road to visit Uxbridge for an exciting Stars vs Stars matchup, where the team’s hard work and dedication brought home their first win of the season with a score of 5-3. Catena, Wales (two), Ben Huyck, and Bailey Cook Martin all found the back of the opposing net.

Assisting was Wales, Catena, and Elijah Chadwick (two).

Cinnamon stood tall with a solid performance between the pipes as the lone netminder for the Stars. Special mention goes out to Jaydin Barkley for his quick thinking and giving up his stick to the goalie during an attack by Uxbridge in the Napanee end.

Napanee Crunch n The Atom Crunch played two home games this past weekend.

First facing Scarborough Sharks on Saturday the Crunch turned out a solid 12-0 win. On Sunday

facing a tougher Peterborough Ice Kats the Crunch found themselves scoreless after one.

Halfway through the 2nd period Saige Pearson was able to tuck the puck past the IceKats netminder courtesy of a pass from Lila Pringle. Last period scoring by Hailey Thompson on a rush and Breanna Roy sealed the game 3-0. A solid team effort by all , with Makenna Marlow strong between the pipes . n Bantam Girls came out strong with a 3-0 win for their home opener on Oct. 14 against The Whitby Wolves.

Mackenzie O’Sullivan started it off with Charlotte Elliott and Rayanne West assisting in the first period.

Katie Hearns then sets up Brooklyn Benn who took it up to their blue line and with two nice moves she then shoots stick side in, followed by West with an assist from Elliott to wrap it up. Chelsea Truman earned the shutout.

The Girls have been preparing for this coming weekend with three road games in Toronto. n The CanWealth Veryea Sutton Peewee C team had only one game this past week.

The girls were a little slow to turn on the heat with the visiting Ennismore 2 team, taking a loss of 2-1 final score.

The score was 1-0 Ennismore 2 at the end of the first period. The Napanee girls had a good chance to tie it up with a power play in the second period, but just could not find the back of the net.

With 6:09 on the clock in the third, the green Ennismore 2 team were up 2-0.

The Peewee Girls came back strong, with Chloe Brunner getting the rebound off Jayna Adrain’s shot on net, closing the gap 2-1.

The girls put on the pressure, taking two penalties, but with the amazing fight of Maddy Burgess between the pipes, she held the score to the final 2-1.

Great efforts seen in the game by Leah Carscallen, Rebecca Hannah, and Emma Granger.

MEMORIAMS

CHAMBERS - In loving memory of our wonderful parents and grandparents, Madge, who left us October 21, 2008 and George on February 7, 1999.

I will never take for granted How greatly I’ve been blessed, For when it comes to parents, Mom and Dad, you were the best!

You nurtured and protected me And taught me with great care And every time I needed you, You were always there, If you could look into my heart, How quickly you would see The special place you hold there And how much you mean to me, May you receive the blessings You are so deserving of, For your caring and your sharing And each sacrifice of love And may you carry in your hearts, These words forever true . . .

No parents anywhere on earth, Could be more loved than you.

Always in our hearts, Gina and Tim, Quintin and Laura and Moriah, Jeff and Adalyn.

24 / CLASSIFIEDS MEMORIAMS

CONWAY - Paul Laverne passed away October 21, 1983.

We do not need a special day To bring you to our minds, The days we do not think of you Are very hard to find, Each morning when we awake, We know that you are gone And no one knows the heartache As we try to carry on, Our hearts still ache with sadness And secret tears still flow, What it meant to lose you, No one will ever know, Our thoughts are always with you, Your place no one can fill, In life we loved you dearly, In death we love you still, There will always be a heartache And often a silent tear, But always a precious memory Of the days when you were here, If tears would make a staircase And heartaches make a lane, We’d walk the path to Heaven And bring you home again, We hold you close within our hearts And there you will remain, To walk with us throughout our lives, Until we meet again, Our family chain is broken now And nothing seems the same, But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again, Someday we will be with you, I truly do believe, Our family circle will be joined once more, No one left to grieve, One more link has just been filled, David is with you at peace, Rejoice in your reunion.

We are left with precious memories.

Forever remembered and loved by Lynn (Oral), Lynn, Judy, Jerry (Betty) Brad (Pam) and their families.

HORWOOD - Marie Those who have a mother, Cherish her with care, For you never know the heartache Till you see her vacant chair, We never ask for miracles, But today just one would do, To see our front door open And our dearest mom walk through, No longer in our lives to share, But in our hearts you are always there.

Love, Leonard, Sylvia, Bruce and families.

KIRKPATRICK - In loving memory of a dear wife, mother and grandmother, Anna, who passed away October 21, 2002.

Always remembered and loved by Ken, Karen, Lance, Jordan and Aaron and Buck, Kerri, Kelsey and Tyler.

Survived by his faithful and loving parents, mother Judy Losee, father Stan Losee and devoted sister and best friend Cathy. Predeceased by his sweet younger sister Kelly Lee. David was loved and will be remembered by Brock (Nicole) Losee, Robert Losee and Roxanne (Mike) Rego. Fondly remembered by all of his aunts and uncles, Jerry (Betty) Conway, Brad (Pam) Conway, Lynn (Oral) Major, Diane Pettifer, Maurice Pettifer, Lynda (Leonard) Joyce, Karen (Tom) Houston and the late Darlene Vincent (Elwood).

David will always be missed by great-aunts and uncles, nieces and nephews, cousins, extended family and friends. David was a devout family man. His love of family surpassed all. His motto was “It’s all about family” and he lived by this. He loved, protected, cared for, respected and formed a special bond with all. David was born at Kingston General Hospital and resided most of his younger years in Napanee. He loved sports and was an avid hockey and baseball player. He left Ontario when he was 17 and at the age of 19 he started his career in the oil fields of Alberta.

David started at the bottom and steadily worked his way up the ladder to become a greatly respected, highly knowledgeable man in his field. He was a great motivator and he helped numerous employees achieve their goals. David held the position of Production Foreman for Bellatrix Exploration at the time of his passing. The family will receive friends at the Wartman Funeral Home “Napanee Chapel” on Saturday, October 25, 2014 from 12pm-2pm. A Memorial Service will follow in the Chapel at 2pm.

OBITUARIES

RICHMOND, George

I met George when he was 12 years of age, He grew up a clean cut guy. He walked the straight and narrow, more so than a lot of people. He operated heavy equipment and was probably amongst the top ten as an operator. George and his brother Glenn and their dad (Archie) were first class horse experts. Lots of people for miles around knew George had his last forty years kind of tough although he didn’t complain, it was probably always there, two times of cancer, who knows, maybe the third. He was a great Blue Jay’s fan and Pittsburg Penguins (Crosby). He always had time to talk to people (mainly about horses). He was dedicated to them. His good buddy Lynn took good care of him, that went both ways. However he will be missed by a lot of people.

Here’s to you George.

Chub.

OBITUARIES

SWAN, John (Jack) Alexander

Jack passed away at the Milton Hospital on October 10, 2014, at the age of 88. Beloved husband of Lois, caring father of the late Karen (Matt) Haist, Jack (Connie) Swan, Mike (Kim) Swan, Bob (Cynthia) Swan and stepchildren David (Sue) Smith, Don (Shelagh) Smith, Debbie (David) Stone, demanding grandfather of 12 grandchildren and the beginnings of the next generation of great-grandchildren, helpful friend and father figure to many. Jack graduated from the University of Toronto with a degree in Chemical Engineering, which propelled him into a lifetime of achievement in building. As part of his professional career, spent with Tate and Lyle and various subsidiaries, he was the head engineer in the 1950’s for the Redpath Sugar refinery located on the Toronto waterfront. In his personal life, as a strict non-vegetarian, he was always building - boats, decks, houses/cottages, furniture and more. He had an uncanny ability to complete a complex project with only one visit for lumber and supplies and no spare parts.

Everyone was happy to have something ‘Jack Built’. For his quieter times he enjoyed travel, skiing, boating, reading, animals, and the ‘calming’ effects of playing cards and golf. All young people feared the inevitable cross-examination when they returned from school as he would always ask if they got a 100 in Math. While few ever did, it never deterred him from being a loving and caring grandfather to them all. He saw this as important, as it was critical for future success and the capacity to extend Canada’s place in the world. While never boastful, he accomplished much, set a high bar towards which all of us should aspire, and his memory will forever influence the lives of those he touched. A Memorial Service to celebrate Jack was held on October 18th in Milton.

NDCC’s Curling season gets rolling

HAWKS | Seniors go winless on the season CONTINUED FROM PAGE 21

Swing and Sweep opens up another year

BY SANDY EASTLAKE On the Button

A hearty welcome to all from the Napanee and District Curling Club.

Most curlers will have completed this first game of the season by now.

Rumour has it that muscle cream sales are sky high. It takes a lot of man hours to get ready for any upcoming season especially with the installing of the ice.

Ice director, Chris Goody and ice technicians Don Currier and Jim Stapley thank Frank Dunham, Steve Eastlake, Steve Anderson, Tom Ayling, Bill Ryan and Dave Haines for their assistance during the long installation process.

Bill Ryan and Frank Dunham, the house directors, thank Jack McNamee, Tom Ayling, Steve Anderson and Phil Berry for setting up the outside addition.

NDCC’s league directors Steve Eastlake, Roger Mills, Moira Sickling, Gayle Johnson, Don and Brenda Kerr convening the Up&At’Em have finalized the draws and can take a long breath.

Dave Travers is ready for his first day of junior curling starting next Wednesday with new youths joining regularly.

The fundraising directors Shelley Alkenbrack and Debbie Currier are busy compiling a list of the weekly members’ draw while money is growing thanks to treasurer Dave Coles and our meetings are well organized thanks to secretary Elizabeth Vandenberg.

Allan Wrigglesworth is busy organizing the very popular The 12th Annual “Swing and Sweep” last Saturday was a lot of fun for 48 golfers/curlers thanks to convenor

Heather Ramshaw. The day began with a shot gun start at the Napanee Golf and Country Club and although cool, it did not rain so all the golfers were pleased. Chris Ramshaw presented the trophy to this year’s winners to the Dickson Team of Paul, Robert, Scott and Paul Obress, their third straight victory. The Pennell Team of Doug, Sheila, Max Bishop and Val Burgess were runner-ups. “Mulligans” were sold as a fundraiser and everyone who entered got their name in a 50-50 draw which was won by Don Pearson. Mathew and Chris Downey sponsored the longest drive and closest to the hole prizes for the golf and this year’s winners were closest to the pin- Jack McNamee, and longest drive- Dave Hollis.

On the ladies side it was Lana Latimer with the longest drive.

Banner Day For Novice A Stars

“The disappointing thing about it was we knew that was one of their plays,” Hawks head coach Corey Bowen said of the reverse. “We watched their game tape and spoke to the boys about it. They just executed.”

With the loss that means the Hawks draw the undefeated Regi Panthers in Friday’s semifinal playoff game. The Hawks had their share of struggles against Regi in Thursday’s regular season match up.

Justin Crosby was the only Hawks to cross the endzone, giving Napanee a 7-3 at the time. The Panthers took control from there.

“I’d rather play them than not have played them,” Bowen said of having faced the Panthers prior to the playoffs. “They showed us what they're capable of , a lot of talent on that side. But I feel if our guys can put together the game plan and execute, we're going to give them a run for their money. Finals is a different game, anyone can win.”

Bowen said the team is

Adam Prudhomme-Staff

NDSS’ Landon Mack runs back a kick return during Thursday’s game against Regi. proud to be the first NDSS squad to arch the playoffs in quite some time, but still feels they have work to do and can bring home a KASSAA championship banner.

Meanwhile Napanee’s seniors closed out their year with a 38-7 loss to La Salle. That left the senior squad winless on the year, but even fielding a team was a victory of sorts for this club. After a two year

absence from KASSAA play this year was about re-establishing the program. They’ll look to take it one step further and ramp up their competitiveness next fall.

In other playoff action the NDSS girls field hockey team took on Holy Cross in the KASSAA quarterfinals yesterday in Kingston. Results weren’t known at presstime.

RAIDERS | Storm show signs of being competitive CONTINUED FROM PAGE 21

The Country Traditions Novice A Stars’ perfect 26-0 record in the 2013-14 regular season was celebrated on Saturday night with a banner being raised to the SPC rafters prior to the Napanee Raiders and Amherstview Jets game. The team was invited to centre ice for the red carpet treatment.

Troy Wylie and Mitchell Merry added insurance in the third, sandwiched around a goal from Deseronto’s Logan Elliot.

Deseronto followed that game with another nail biter, giving the undefeated Panthers a run for their money before losing 3-2 on the road on Saturday night. Elliot and Jared Boomhower each scored in the middle frame to give the Storm a 2-1 advantage heading into the final period. They couldn’t lock it down however as the Pan-

thers tied it up with a short-handed goal and then scored the go ahead goal at the 13:50 mark of the third. Despite three straight games that were decided by two goals or fewer, the Storm are 1-8 on the year. They travel to Picton this evening and then host Campbellford tomorrow night at 7:30 p.m.

As for the Raiders, they are in Amherstview on Sunday night and return home Tuesday night to welcome the Rebels. Both games start at 7:30 p.m.

“I’m not really happy with .500,” Hartwick said of the team's record. “There

are guys that give the effort and come to play every night, like Josh Murphy, Troy Wylie, Kyle Murphy's been really great.

Other guys like Matt Muller and Will Perison.

But right now it’s not everybody giving the constancy that we need. If we saw that, our record would be better.”

Hartwick said the team can ill-afford to keep giving away wins to front running Port Hope if they have any hopes of catching them.

For Saturday’s two goal effort Kyle Murphy is the Ontario Milk Producers Raider of the Week.

On a more positive note remember that there are plants that will survive and even thrive in cold weather. Belgium Mums, New England Asters, Sedum Spectabile and ornamental grasses all look great this time of year.

Don’t forget flowering cabbage and kale: they improve their looks with frost!

Pumpkins, ornamental grasses, corn stalks, hay bales and goose necked squash can all play a part in an entrance display at the front of your home. Be creative and have fun.

Roots artist set to perform in Tamworth

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

AMWORTH’S concert series starts back up this weekend with a performance by award winning roots artist Del Barber on Saturday.

When he’s not performing, Barber lives on a ranch in rural Manitoba. He writes his own songs, which are inspired mostly from his experiences on the ranch and from other working class stories.

“I try to write songs about working class people and then I tour around and tell stories and sing songs about Canada,” Barber said.

“The blue-collared people and the stories that get untold, those are the kinds of things that I want to

T

talk about, write about, that inspire me.”

He said he writes about Canada and his hometown both intentionally and unintentionally.

“The goal of writing is trying to be sincere. It’s harder than one might think to be honest about where you’re from and to be proud of it. And I read a lot about place, and what it means to be from somewhere. I think it’s both intentional and an effort to be sincere,” Barber explained.

Earlier this month, Barber attended the Western Canadian Music Awards in Winnipeg, where he won Songwriter of the Year and Roots Solo Recording of the Year.

“It was really an honour, especially in western Canada. The music scene

we have, it’s really important to me to be recognized by it,” he said, saying he couldn’t have done it without all his supporters that keep him focused and make him successful. “I feel like it was a big win for us.”

Barber said he and his band plan to provide a ‘Honky-Tonk’ show in Tamworth on Saturday.

“We wait to see who the crowd is and how they react and then we kind of adapt on the fly to try to provide them with something they’ll like, to make sure they’re entertained and have a good time.

There’s usually stuff off most of my albums that we play and some covers,” said Barber. “I also tell stories and hopefully people will laugh a bit and have a good time.”

Barber is the first of six performers in the 2014-15 Tamworth and Erinsville Community Development Committee Concert Series at the Tamworth Legion.

Tickets to the show are $30 each and can be purchased at the Stone Mills Family Market, TCO Agromart, the River Bakery, bon ECO Designs, and at the Tamworth Legion.

Doors for the show open at 7 p.m., and the performance begins at 8 p.m.

VOTE | ‘Ballots’ already coming in CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 According to Susan Beckel, Greater Napanee clerk, about 1,800 votes had already been entered by presstime yesterday, 1,200 of which were entered online, and about 600 entered over the phone.

She said that voting by phone has been going well, but some people are having a hard time locating the website. Beckel reminded voters that the website cannot be found through a Google search and that the website on the mailout information guide must be entered directly into the address bar of your device’s web browser.

In the case of Greater Napanee, eligible voters should have already received a voter instruction letter in the mail, complete with instructions and per-

sonal identification number to access the voting system.

Those who haven’t received a letter should contact the municipality’s voter help centre at 613-354-3351.

Stone Mills, too, has moved to electronic voting.

Similarly, voters there should have received a voter information letter to guide them through the voting process.

However, those who aren’t comfortable with evoting have the option to cast a paper ballot at one of four polling stations that will be set up on Monday.

Those voting locations are at the Centreville municipal office, the Tamworth fire hall, the Yarker fire hall or the Newburgh fire all. Those polls will be open between 10 a.m. and 8 p.m.

Those who haven’t received a voter information card should contact the

township office at 613-3782475. To vote in person by paper ballot, voters should bring that card to the polling station.

In Deseronto, all voting will take place at the Deseronto Community Centre. Eligible voters will have received their voter cards by mail, and will need that card and one piece of identification in order to cast a ballot.

Those who haven’t received a card should contact the town hall at 613-396-2440.

Deseronto will have one more advance poll on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. before the election day poll on Monday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. More information can be found on the Deseronto election at deseronto.ca/town-hall/2014municipal-elections/.

How well are consumers protected in Ontario’s retail energy market?

That’s the question the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) is looking at with its review of the Energy Consumer Protection Act. The Act deals with energy retailing to low-volume consumers in the province. Just over 300 thousand residential and small business consumers in Ontario currently have contracts with electricity retailers; 362,000 have contracts with natural gas marketers.

B E AV E R

How to Sell a Home in Autumn MCG - Home selling in autumn is the second best time of the year to sell a home.

Families have returned from summer vacations. Kids have gone back to school.

The holidays aren't yet upon us, at least not yet in an annoying way. We are set to enjoy 75 to 80 days of normalcy, and that's a great time to sell a home.

Clean Up the Yard - Rake dead leaves and debris in your lawn. Don't let overgrown vegetation block the windows or path to the entrance. Cutting bushes and tree limbs will let the sun inside and showcase the exterior of your home. Cut away summer vines and cut down dead flowers.

Create Autumn Curb Appeal - The most popular autumn flowers are chrysanthemums (or mums) and they bloom for a long time. I am also partial to marigolds for fall. Both mums and marigolds are available in yellow, which is a home selling color. Plant them in pots.

Place pots on the steps and along the sidewalk. Accent with pumpkins.

Clean Out the Fireplace - Ah, nothing smells like autumn than smoke from a wood-burning fireplace.If the fireplace is filled with cobwebs because it hasn't been used for months, vacuum it out and wash it down.

Dress the Windows - Rain and wind from over the summer months can make your windows dusty and streaked by autumn. You might not notice smudges, but buyers will, if only on a subconscious level. To sell a home, your windows need to sparkle. Remove screens and spray them down.

You want the air inside your home to

smell fresh - When was the last time you changed your furnace filter? You can buy 90-day furnace filters. Have the HVAC system checked before you need to turn on the heat. Besides, the buyer will ask a home inspector to look at your HVAC. If you discover problems with your furnace, it's better to fix them before your home goes on the market.

Utilize Autumn Accent Colours - You don't need to dump a lifeless sofa when you can accessorize its dullness with bright red, orange and / or golden yellow pillows. Toss a quilt or autumn-coloured throw over a chair. After you've cleared away the clutter and depersonalized each room, bring a little bit of autumn hues to each room by placing bold-colored accent pieces. Create an autumn centerpiece for the dining room table by arranging pine cones and nuts around orange candles, stick in a few leaves from the yard.

Prepare Autumn Dishes - Speaking of autumn scents, you might set out freshly baked pumpkin cupcakes or simmer hot apple cider on the stove. Prop open a cookbook to an autumn stew. Fill a bowl with crisp red apples.

Turn on the Lights - Above all, bring in the light. When days get shorter, the sun sets lower in the horizon and casts wider shadows. Pull up the blinds, open the shutters, push back the drapes on every window. Turn on every light in the house, including appliance lights and closet lights. Brighten darker rooms with few windows by placing spotlights on the floor behind furniture, and for goodness sakes, turn off the TV.

Block off the flues, stovepipes and chimneys. Chimneys from fireplaces or woodstoves should be professionally checked to ensure they don't have hazardous amounts of creosote.

• Empty refrigerator and cupboards: Clean and defrost the fridge, leaving the door open to keep it fresh. Pack up the cupboards, including dry food and canned goods.

• Walk through: Make sure that all utilities and appliances are unplugged and any potential fire hazards are removed (old newspapers, chemicals, etc.)

If possible, have a neighbour or friend check up on your place periodically throughout the winter; this will provide R some additional peace of mind.

Closing up the cottage When it comes to closing up the cottage, every cottage owner has their own checklist and methods. But it’s useful to review some best practises and perhaps add a few additional tasks to your to-do list to make sure that next spring, there aren’t any unwelcome surprises.

In Canada, the top causes of cottage damage are wind and water. Fortunately, the risk of damage can be reduced by taking a few simple steps at the end of the season.

Here are the most important tasks to take care of at the cottage this fall: • Drain the pipes: Make sure all water is removed by opening all taps and valves. If your cottage is not winterized, the Canada Safety Council recommends filling supply pipes with non-toxic anti-freeze and wrapping pipes at key junction points to help protect against the cold.

• Inspect your roof: A leaky roof can cause a lot of water-damage. Replace any missing or broken shingles. Make sure trees are trimmed so that wind and snow do not cause them to damage your cottage.

• Electricity: If shutting the electricity off completely, Hydro One recommends turning off all appliances, the water heater and electrical room heaters before turning off the main switch at the electrical panel. If

ARIES (Mar 21/Apr 20) Aries, you begin the week with enthusiasm, but excitement begins to wane quite quickly. Find a way to rally your energy levels so you can complete tasks.

TAURUS (Apr 21/May 21) Rein in your emotions as much as possible this week, Taurus. You will feel passionate about a project in the coming days, but you still must remain calm as you tackle the tasks at hand.

GEMINI (May 22/Jun 21) Gemini, commitments at work may keep you from your plans, even if you have had a special event on the calendar for some time. This obligation is unavoidable.

CANCER (Jun 22/Jul 22) Expect to have some serious feelings about love and romance this week, Cancer. You are empowered by the sweet feelings and what they mean for your future.

VIRGO (Aug 24/Sept 22) Virgo, test the waters before you share a secret. This way you can get an idea of how a small group of people will react before you spread the word.

Now might be a great time to schedule some well-deserved rest and relaxation with loved ones.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, listen to your sixth sense as it guides you in a particular direction. Your instincts rarely steer you wrong. Resist the urge to follow what everyone else is doing.

PISCES (Feb 19/Mar 20) Pisces, don't worry if you have to give up something you desire when negotiating with others. The chips will fall into place.
