LED lights to mark downtown buildings By Dominik Wisniewski BEAVER STAFF WRITER In an effort to drive sales in the downtown this holiday season, the Town of Greater Napanee is partnering with the Napanee BIA on a unique LED light show. Their inspiration for the project comes from the Rochester Michigan Downtown Development Area, which have seen economic spinoffs from their ‘The Big Bright Light Show.’ The local partnership will see the launch of the ‘Big Bright Light Show’ in 2012 with 200,000 LED lights covering the building façades on Dundas Street between Centre and John Streets. James Timlin, the town’s General Manager of Community and Corporate Services, said he found out about the Detroit show while searching for lights for Greater Napanee’s Festival of Lights. “I thought it would be a great attraction to bring people to the downtown core,” he said.

Students arrive at Southview Families get tour of new school prior to first day of classes By Dominik Wisniewski BEAVER STAFF WRITER While the back-to-school week is busy for most, it has been especially trying for staff and students at Southview Public School, who are starting a new year in their new elementary school. But according to staff, the transition on Tuesday went off without a hitch.

“The first day was fantastic. We had a lot of staff and people in the community commenting on how streamlined it was,” said Lani Fox, the new vice-principal at Southview. “It really came together in terms of the arrival of students and even the transportation of (Kindergarten) students to H.H. Langford went well.” Fox, the former vice-principal at Cataraqui Woods Elementary School in Kingston, said the highlight was seeing

all the classrooms up and running, with the school’s new Smart boards already being put to good use. “It was fantastic to see and the students are really excited,” she said, pointing out that the faculty is making every effort to ensure classes are working together. “You kind of feel like you’re part of history so it’s all about pulling it all together and having the building shine.”

Greater Napanee fire crews prepare to enter a Market Square building last Thursday. The fire department responded to a fire at 25 Market Square that afternoon, and upon arrival saw smoke and flames coming from the edge of the roof at the back of the buildings. It was later determined that damage to the building was confined to the roof and interior wall of the third floor apartment. The Greater Napanee Fire Service estimated the damage at around $10,000; the cause of the fire remains under investigation.

The Need To Organize

JAW DROPPING VALUE

Nothing hits home this time of year more than the need to organize. Each year as the boys summer holiday comes to an end, the house becomes a hive of tizzying and tidying for the start of their school year. At the ages of seven and nine, soon to be eight and ten, I am enjoying their interest in getting themselves together. One area we seemed to struggle with in the past was due dates for school activities and assignments. The family calendar worked fine to record important upcoming dates; when the boys actually made you aware of such. After frustration mounted last spring, we decided to outfit Malcolm and Isaac with their own set of dry erase calendars and to do lists. These items are popular sellers in the store for many teachers and university students but, I hadn’t thought of setting the boys rooms up with such. After stocking up on some additional coloured dry erase markers, they were off and actually enjoying their way of keeping track of school and additional activities. I was shocked at how such a simple idea could make this task fun for them. Now I jump at the opportunity to leave mushy messages for them and it is way too fun to write little notes back and forth! Surprisingly enough, even a short list of – “dirty clothes in hamper” – “floss & brush teeth”, goes a long way! Make life a little easier and a lot more fun when you stop by AURA by Colour Connection for your tools to a great start this fall! TIP: After you have selected a paint colour for a room, take a chip of the colour you love and stash it in your purse or wallet and you will always have it with you on your hunt for fabric, pillows and/or accessories. Doing so will allow you to pull everything together for finished look.

By Seth DuChene EDITOR Some local notables will be cooling their heels behind bars this Saturday until they can contact generous souls to bail them out. In winning their freedom, they’ll be helping some four-legged friends in the process. The Napanee branch of the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals will be holding its firstever Jail and Bail fundraiser, with the hope of making it an annual event. “It’s just a new fundraiser that we came up with last year,� said Henny Venus, manager of the Napanee OSPCA animal shelter. “Fundraising is necessary to keep the shelter going.� And, lately, the funds are needed more than ever. According to Venus, the shelter’s finances have been pinched between rising costs and dwindling income. “The expenses are higher than normal, we have more animals than normal, and we have less donations (coming in) and less adoptions,� he said. “It’s a tough year, to be honest, for our shelter to make ends meet, and hopefully this will help.� While the shelter might be in a serious predicament, Venus says organizers hope that the Jail and Bail will be a fun way to not only raise money for the shelter but raise awareness about the work that happens there. It might even lead to a few dogs and cats finding new homes, too. Those incarcerated will be locked up in the outdoor kennels at the shelter, and won’t be released until they can find enough donations to the shelter to bail them out. Among those who’ll be behind bars will be Greater Napanee Mayor Gord Schermerhorn, L&A County Warden and Loyalist Mayor Bill Lowry and several local businesspeople. “We’re going to give them bread and water, nothing else,� jokes Venus. “It’s an old-fashioned jail.� When they’re not checking out the ‘inmates’, visitors to the shelter on Richmond Boulevard can also grab a bite at a charity barbecue. The event runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. “Because it’s the first time, we’d like to raise $2,000. If we raise more, that would be nice,� Venus said. “If it’s a success and everybody likes it, maybe we’ll make it an annual (event), but this is a trial to see if it works."

For over 30 years, I worked in the manufacturing sector, then, like many people, I was laid off. I handed out resumes everywhere with no luck. Finally, I went to Career Edge and met with Donna who suggested I research career fields that were of interest to me. I enrolled in a 44 week Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy Assistant Diploma program, I graduated at the top of my class and now I have two jobs in my field of study. I never thought I would have the opportunity to pursue a second career. Thanks to Career Edge, I found a career I am passionate about.

Industry needs new deal

An independent community newspaper

Ontario’s provincial government has officially been told something stakeholders in the province’s horse racing industry have been saying for several months: without slots revenue or some other revenue stream the industry will cease to exist. The panel also found that “Ontario’s vibrant world-class horse racing and breeding industry is worth saving.” No other jurisdiction in North America is known to enjoy a thriving horse racing industry without government assistance. The statements are among the findings provided to Ontario’s Minister of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs Ted McMeekin in August 2012, from an all-star panel comprised of three former Ontario cabinet ministers, Elmer Buchanan, John Snobelen and John Wilkinson. The panel was tasked with working with the horse racing industry and consulting on the sector’s transition, including the allocation of $50 million in program funding over three years.

Sad night in Quebec OR those who treasure national unity, it’s never good news when Quebec sovereigntists score a victory of any kind. However, what occurred in Quebec following the provincial election on Tuesday night wasn’t just disappointing — it was tragic and frightening. As the soon-to-be Quebec Premier Pauline Marois was delivering her victory speech to Parti Quebecois supporters at a location in Montreal, two men were shot outside the same venue. One of the men died from his wounds. Shortly after, a 62-year-old man was arrested; while being taken into custody, the man shouted “Les anglais se réveillent,” or, “The English are waking up.” As of presstime, the details of the shooting were still very sketchy. Further, police were not saying whether the shooting was politically motivated (though they weren’t ruling out Marois as the main target). Nevertheless, for those who value the supremacy of reason and debate over violence, news of the events in Montreal are chill-

F

ing. In 2012, are people in Canada really dying because of politics? We’ve been through this before, although we’re more than four decades removed from the crisis posed by terrorists, the FLQ, who sought the independence of Quebec from Canada — even if such independence was won at gunpoint. The mere possibility that we might be returning to those ugly days is more than a little troubling to contemplate. It’s just plain wrong to suggest that Canada’s political history has been bloodless. That said, we can

scarcely think of another nation that has developed more peacefully than Canada. Democracy and the rule of law are paramount and, in our political discourse, we must always respect each other, even if we don’t always agree (and even if we don’t speak the same language). It’s bitterly ironic that, next week, Napanee will be receiving refugees who are escaping politically-motivated bloodshed. We don’t know yet if it was politicallymotivated bloodshed in Montreal on display on Thursday night, but if it was, such action must be denounced.

We want to hear from you!

The panel met with dozens of stakeholders, including all racetrack owners, to determine how government can support the industry’s transition to a self-sustaining funding model, and how revenue sources could be modernized. Considerations included the origins and impacts of the Slots at Racetracks Program, an overview of racing revenues and purses, industry regulations, economic impact of the racing industry and the impact of the termination of the program. The panel believes it would be a mistake to reinstate the Slots at Racetracks Program. It suggests the program was excessive in its contribution to stabilizing the industry, and led to the industry avoiding collaboration in developing a competitive gaming product. However, the panel also found that without the program or a new revenue stream, the $2 billion horse racing industry will end. In fact, no Ontario racetrack has a viable business plan to continue racing beyond March 31, 2013, when the revenue sharing agreement terminates. The loss of the industry will mean the loss of 26,000 racing horses and the same in full-time equivalent jobs. It will displace thousands of people employed in racing. The panel has recommended a new partnership be developed immediately to ensure the continuation of a viable racing industry that is accountable and transparent. The panel feels the right level of public investment will have a positive impact on employment, the economy, government revenues and the future of the industry.

A place in the sand Editor’s Note: This is the first contribution from our newest columnist, Michelle Hauser. Her column will appear in The Beaver every two weeks. This Napanee resident also has her own online blog of the same name, Train of Thought. Welcome aboard, Michelle! In my third attempt to wrestle the plastic predator into submission I grabbed it by the gill slits and flipped it onto its back. With its smooth underbelly fitted snugly against the roof of the car, one good shove by the snout wedged the dorsal fin between my son’s car seat and the bag filled with beach towels. There was just enough room under each pectoral fin to squeeze in the beach chairs and cooler before slamming the hatch. And with that, the ‘sand wagon’ and all of its passengers — including ‘Sheldon the Shark ’—was ready for the final voyage of the season. My son shouted the familiar rallying cry of “Sandbanks here we come!” as I cautiously backed out of the driveway with little to no visibility out my rearview mirror. During the one-hour drive from our home in Napanee, with Labor Day looming, I couldn’t help but feel nostalgic about summer’s end. We bought our park pass on June 22, and as the hot, sunny weekends came one after another, we couldn’t escape the siren call of Sandbanks. Even as my gross household productivity

reached an all-time low, I took great satisfaction in having embraced summer with vigour. We did well to kidnap my husband for the final expedition. Relieved to have an extra pair of hands to help carry the gear— definitely the most exhausting part of a day at the beach—I was also glad for another set of eyes to watch our young son so I could finally join the ranks of the beach-walkers. As it turns out, the long walk was exactly what I’d hoped it would be: a one-way ticket to a profoundly calm and philosophical state of mind. After a few hundred metres I felt like the French writer and existentialist philosopher, Simone de Beauvoir, who once asked “What is a woman?” In my case, I was looking for the answer to “What is the beach?” And no, my investigation wasn’t as important as hers, but for many people the beach has an extraordinary power to alleviate burdens—it breathes a carefree breath across the sandy dunes into the hearts and souls of its inhabitants—and in this harried and hurried age that’s a phenomenon that deserves to be explored. At first glance, given the hundreds of people sleeping in the sand, the beach seems to be primarily a place for rest and relaxation. This on its own makes it a rarity in a productivity-obsessed culture where taking a nap has

Michelle Hauser

Train Of Thought become a subversive activity. It’s hard to think of one other place where healthy, middle-aged people can come and enjoy a little shut-eye without judgment or persecution. To lie down and do absolutely nothing, with hundreds of other likeminded people, validates the pursuit of rest, thereby increasing the amount of joy to be found in it. At the beach no one has to sneak away or hide. Nappers can come out of the closet and do it right out in the open without a shred of guilt. Still walking, and ruminating on rest as the beach’s defining characteristic, I stumbled upon an enclave of sand artists. The highlight of their exhibition was a young girl buried to her torso, mom having sculpted a beautiful mermaid’s tail flowing from her daughter’s waist. Once a child, now a pièce d’art—intricate scales on the tail almost complete—

the illusion was close to perfection. The sight of this and other artists at work led to my second observation about the essence of the beach: everyone, regardless of their ambitions, can find a place in the sand. While ‘beach bums’ are the majority, they don’t discriminate against the worker bees and the rest-averse— those who dig and fill holes, build castles and play volleyball. In fact, it’s the soundtrack of these industrious souls, and those frolicking in the water, that generates the steady hum of human activity that makes falling asleep on the beach that much more pleasurable. Is there another place on earth where the symbiosis between those who choose to ‘do’ or ‘don’t do’ can be found in such perfect balance? Feeling certain that the yin-and-yang of idleness and industry was the height of my afternoon meditation, I made a uturn for base camp. It was then I spied that icon of summer lovin’ — two names written in the sand, ‘Jason + Jennifer’. In my married-with-child stage of life I had completely ignored the role of romance — the beach as a place to love and be loved left me with a little more thinking to do. Not wanting to bias my study and rain on the love parade, I tried earnestly to open my eyes to the lover’s narrative. There were at least a handful of youth holding hands and

smooching, but much to my surprise most of the canoodling was owing to those in their 50s, 60s and beyond. Who would have known the beach had become a place where empty-nesters could fall in love again? Perhaps Hollywood should consider a sequel to Hope Springs, with Meryll Streep and Tommy Lee Jones headlining in The Blue-Haired Lagoon. As another pair of starry-eyed seniors walked past, my own base camp finally came in view, and with it the outline of my little family: man, boy and deflated shark. Sheldon had apparently sprung a leak. Perhaps I shoved him a little too hard. For just a moment I looked down and saw a familiar sign in the sand. The inner lines and the exterior circle of the international symbol for peace had been meticulously crafted and embellished with tiny white shells. The artist was long gone but in the handiwork I finally found the answer to my question. Above all else the beach is a place of peace that can unite people from every walk of life. To take it in is to see as beautiful and inclusive a portrait of humanity as any artist could aspire to paint, with all shapes, sizes, ages and colors represented. And after a beautiful summer at Sandbanks, I think ‘a place of peace’ is how I will choose to keep and remember it until next year, when the days grow long and hot, and I can return to find my place in the sand.

The OFA welcomes the panel report as an objective and thorough review of the dire situation facing the horse racing industry. OFA has maintained since the program cancellation was announced that the decision was made with an unfortunate lack of industry consultation and government foresight. We applaud the panel for its thoroughness and candour. We also applaud Minister McMeekin for his leadership in appointing the panel. The OFA agrees fully with the recommendation that government develop a new partnership with the industry. The OFA strongly urges the racing industry and government to work quickly to establish near and long-term plans to ensure the sustainability of the racing sector. The industry needs a clear signal from the government: a signal that gives the industry confidence to say that it’s here to stay in Ontario. Keith Currie is a member of the OFA executive committee.

All about stingers and those who use them I have enjoyed watching our nectar feeders this summer. Two of them are conventional hummingbird feeders, and they have attracted a steady stream of clients. Mostly, we have enjoyed the butterfly feeders and the array of butterflies and bees and other insects they seem to have attracted. This past week though, it has been bees. There has been a swarm of honeybees at the bird baths every day. It is likely the only moisture they have seen all summer. At one of the butterfly feeders, it is a dozen or so yellowjackets that come, seemingly infatuated with the grape jelly I place in two of the pockets, cleaning them out in less than a week. Another butterfly feeder has a handful of bald-faced hornets. I always reach for my camera rather than the Raid, as I relish the presence of these insects, although I do respect the hornets since they definitely have an attitude. They are wildlife, and I refuse no one. I can’t remember the last time I was ever stung by a bee. Yet, I can work in their presence daily, fill the feeders and the bird bath, as they buzz about my head, seemingly aware that I bring them nourishment. They are as welcome on our property as other wildlife and form an important link in the natural scheme of things around our house. It’s biodiversity at work

and I try not to interfere. There always has been considerable confusion about bee identity. Many people label hornets as wasps and yellow jackets as hornets, often tossing the names around with reckless abandon as though they were all interchangeable. Some believe that hornets and yellow jackets are the same insect; actually they are not. They belong to the same family of vespid wasps, but the two are as different as night and day. Some we have on our property are yellow paper wasps, much longer than hornets and yellow jackets, with long legs and the familiar thin thread which joins the abdomen to the thorax. Yellow paper wasps are those we frequently see clinging to the outside of their open paper celled nests attached to the rafters of buildings, or as many an unsuspecting person has found - in behind loose boards, shingles, etc. The blue mud dauber is similar in profile but its nest is constructed of mud and similarly can be found attached to rafters. Both species of wasps have powerful stings, but fortunately are not easily provoked. Bald-faced hornets build the large basketball-sized paper nests that are most always constructed out in the open, their nests attached to the eves of buildings or hanging menacingly from tree branches. The nest

Terry Sprague

Outdoor Rambles comprises several layers of cells, covered on the outside by the familiar grey paper with an opening on the bottom. The bees entering and exiting from the formidable spout have black and white patterns on the face, thorax and abdomen. Generally the bees will go about their business quietly, but if the nest is disturbed, bald-faced hornets will sting repeatedly as my brother found out one day when he was a teenager and attempted to eradicate one such nest that was hanging from a crabapple tree in our farmyard. Yellow jackets on the other hand are somewhat slimmer and have alternating back and yellow segments. These are the bees

that become such pests at picnics. While their nests are similar to the bald-faced hornet, the nests tend to be smaller and rounder, located in out of the way nooks and crannies, and frequently in hollows in the ground where they are often stumbled upon by accident with disastrous consequences. There is one inside our garage this summer. Unlike the bald-faced hornet, yellow jackets will sting at the slightest provocation. When I was on the farm, we used to find them on stalks of sweet clover in hay fields, and occasionally in manure piles where they would build in the dry manure and straw at the top of the pile. All of these bees — the paper wasps, yellow jackets and hornets — are collectively termed social wasps. One to several females begin a colony by making small paper cells of masticated plant material mixed with saliva. One egg is laid per cell, and when

it hatches the larva is fed chewed bits of other insects, especially caterpillars. Colonies of hornets and yellow jackets (genus Vespula) are founded by a single queen, but colonies of other paper wasps (such as the genus Polistes) may have several founder females. Eventually, however, only one female, the queen, lays eggs. When the larvae transform to adults, they join the queen in constructing and provisioning the colony. So, if you should wander in our yard anytime this week, be aware there are bees at work – lots of them. Bring them an offering, and you will be their friend forever.

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 70 Years Ago September 9, 1942 n Although the Second World War had been raging for nearly three years, it wasn’t until now that the devastating conflict really hit home for Napanee residents. The Roney family of Napanee were informed that their son, W.G. ‘Jimmy’ Roney, a sergeant in the Royal Canadian Air Force, was missing and presumed dead. He had been taking part in a mission over Germany when he was shot down. Roney, 27, was the first Napanee resident to be killed in the war. n A local airman and amateur magician, Vincent Harrison, was slapped with a threemonth jail sentence after being found guilty of forging train tickets. Harrison, who may have been better known by his stage name the ‘Great Gardini’, plead guilty to the charge of issuing false documents. According to the report in the Beaver, “Harrison, who has mystified many an audience… couldn’t mystify police when they began investigating an influx of forged railway tickets.”

35 Years Ago September 7, 1977 n The Lennox and Addington County Board of Education’s secretaries ended their walkout just as students were returning to school from summer holidays after negotiating a new tentative contract with the board. The new agreement still needed to be ratified by both school board trustees and the members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees Local 2050. Despite the agreement, it appeared as though there was still some bad blood between the two sides. The union declined to release details of the agreement because, according to CUPE rep Ed Scott, “there are seven trustees that we don’t trust.” n Napanee resident A. John Wood was continuing his campaign to eliminate pollution from the Napanee River. Wood was persistent in writing to the Ontario Ministry of Environment, saying that the ministry needed to take more decisive action against those industries which were continuing to overload the river with organic waste. He also argued that ministry needed to come down hard on the municipality for allowing the pollution to continue, and failing to do so put peoples’ health at risk.

Apple producers make best of challenging growing season By Dominik Wisniewski BEAVER STAFF WRITER It has been a hit-and-miss apple crop season for Jim and Sarah Wynn, but the couple says they are lucky compared to other growers in the province. With their 15-monthold daughter Abigail by their side, they greeted visitors last week at Wynn Farms Apple Orchard on Highway 33. Although their orchard has seen the impact a ‘fluke’ this spring — with a warm spell quickly followed by temperatures dropping well below freezing — the impact has been localized. “In the 30 years that my family has been farming this orchard we’ve never seen the frost damage like this,” Jim said. “We’ve heard that in the county it’s hit-and-miss too. There’s one orchard where their McIntosh may be fine but the next orchard, in a lower area down the road, was even worse than we had.” At Wynn Farms the McIntosh crop was hit the hardest, with an estimated 80 per cent reduction compared to previous years. “It came up to about +25C and we had about four days straight of that, so it really confused the crop,” he said. “It thought it was spring and then of course we went down to 6C one night.” But Jim says he didn’t have to explain the situation to many customers who arrived at their farm knowing it was a tough season. “Some people come and say they have heard there would be no apples this year, so we try to counteract it with a bigger display,” said Jim. The remainder of their crop seems OK, Jim said, adding that most varieties have produced about 75 per cent of their regular crop. “We’re hoping this year that we can encourage people to try the other varieties because there is a lack of the McIntosh,” he added. For Sarah, who pointed out that some farmers in western Ontario have absolutely no apples to harvest this year, the outlook is promising. “That’s pretty devastating but at least for us we have the blessings, we have something,” she told the Beaver. “What makes it a little extra challenging this year is that it’s also so dry. Then of course the apples

We almost got two inches of rain so it really helped us out,” Jim said. “All you can do for rain is hope and pray.” But for the Wynns it’s all about seeing visitors picking their own apples with friends and family. “That’s the enjoyment for us,” Jim said. “Usually our biggest hurdle is weekend weather. In a typical year I don’t think since I have been here we’ve ever sold the orchard out. While he says visitors have never picked all the apples off the trees due to rainy weekends, Jim predicts this season will be different. “Typically we’re pretty busy and we keep going, but the season does come to an end pretty quickly and the apples start falling off the trees,” he added. “Really this year the key for us and what we’re trying to do is, getting everything we can — making sure we pick them before they fall.” He said many customers like to use some of the apples for hunting to

attract animals, so no apples go to waste. “Between cider, the deer apples and what we pick off the trees, I don’t think there will be very many remaining this year,” Jim said. Wynn Farms has operated as an orchard for nearly 30 years and the property was used for farming crops prior to that. “We have between 1,800-2,000 trees here,” he said. “We have four varieties of McIntosh in addition to Empire, Cortland, Spartan, Lobo, Paula Red, Red Delicious, Honey crisp and Royal Gala.” An early McIntosh variety called Jersey Mac has already been picked, he said, while the Royal Gala are being picked for the first time. “We just planted the Royal Gala trees so we’re trying that out. Typically you won’t pick them for four years after you plant, so we’re just coming up to the first year of picking some of those apples,” he added. With approximately 17 different varieties of apples grown on 16,000 acres in Ontario, the Ontario Apple Growers issued a press release in May warning of the impacts this spring will have on the crop. While farmers are most directly affected, the OAG said this would also have an impact on farm work-

ers, marketers, suppliers, retailers and ultimately, consumers. “Initial assessments indicate up to 80 per cent of the province’s apple crop has been affected, as well as an estimated 30-40 per cent loss in peach production and a virtually complete devastation of the cherry and plum crops,” the OAG reported at the time. “We’ve never seen damage this widespread,” said Phil Tregunno, chair of the Ontario Tender Fruit Producers’ Marketing Board. The OAG represents the province’s 215 commercial apple farmers. According to the OAG, the farm gate value of the Ontario apple crop is approximately $60 million, which includes sales to fresh and processing market and on-farm/pick-yourown. But the Wynns have embraced this season and hope visitors continue to bring friends and family to the pick-your own, or purchases a variety of products available at their roadside stand. In addition to launching a new ‘Wynn Farms Apple Orchard’ Facebook page, the farm now accepts debit, Visa and MasterCard on all purchases. Wynn Farms is located at 8191 Highway 33 in Bath – 10 minutes west of the Village of Bath.

Scarecrows preparing for downtown return With fall around corner, Napanee BIA plans annual Scarecrow Festival, set for Sept. 29 By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER STAFF WRITER

Club will be decorating scarecrows one week in advance of the event, which will be displayed throughout downtown. It has become a friendly competition amongst the club members, seeing who can produce the best scarecrow. Local vendors are encouraged to get in on the act, creating a scarecrow that promotes their business. The BIA is also holding a window display decorating contest for merchants as well. Originally launched as a way to bring people to town to fill the void between summer and Christmas, Elliot says the festival is slowly but surely

SEPTEMBER 11 DARTS At the Tamworth Legion, starting at 8 p.m. ‘PIECE ME TOGETHER’ Starting at 7:30 p.m. at Gibson Hall at 990 Sydenham Rd., cost is $8 (includes refreshment).

becoming an established tradition. Now in its fifth year, word of the festival has spread to neighbouring towns and cities. The event serves the dual purpose of giving people something fun to do in the autumn while promoting the downtown. “I think what were seeing now is more people coming from out of town to the event,� said Elliot. “If we can keep the same date, or there about, people know at the end of September there’s going to be a festival in Napanee. I think people are starting to realize the fairs aren’t done, the festivals aren’t done, there’s still the Napanee

Scarecrow Festival which is sort of the last hurrah to welcome in fall.� The event will begin at 10 a.m. and run until 4

p.m. Usually held the first Saturday in October, the date was pushed up this year to avoid falling on the Thanksgiving weekend.

UMMER unofficially ended last weekend, which in Napanee can mean only one thing: the scarecrows are coming. Set for Sept. 29, the Scarecrow Festival returns with plenty of old favourites mixed with new activities. Held along Dundas Street and the Market Square, the annual event is the town’s way of ushering in the autumn season while bidding farewell to summer with one last outdoor celebration. “For the adults, for a $5 fee, there is going to be a

pie-eating contest,� Napanee BIA member, Pet Panache owner and festival organizer Sondra Elliot said of the new events. “At the top of John Street we’re going to have cow patty bingo.� Festival staples like face painting, children’s rides, a pancake breakfast and 4-H demonstrations will also take place. Prizes for the competitions will be supplied by local businesses. “We’ve got extra vendors coming in, more than last year,� added Elliot. “We’ve got Dennis Whitty from Cangig, he’s putting together the music.� Once again the 4-H

“They have been doing it six to seven years and they have seen an annual increase in sales at all the stores. They are north of Detroit and they get over one million visitors a year so that’s great.� The lights would be illuminated from Nov. 15 this year until Jan. 31. According to Timlin, no community in Canada has done what Rochester, Michigan has done for a light festival. While there are communities with light displays, he said that no one has lit their downtown like Rochester.

naming rights for five years,� he said, adding that the Town of Greater Napanee is contributing $25,000 for light displays, which will be animated and synchronized to music at Springside Park and Conservation Park. Town staff will install and remove the lights each season, with an estimated staff time cost of over $12,000. “The Big Bright Light Show will be an annual event,� Way said, pointing out that the LED lights have a bulb life of over 50,000 hours. He said that the show would become an attraction for the downtown core. “There is no doubt that the BIA was interested in the traffic flow increase that this will have an impact on,� he said “That’s what I think our stores want and need. The main goal here is to increase the traffic flow, both locally and from out of town.� Estimating that, in addition to the town’s 15,000 residents there could be a catchment area of upwards of 300,000400,000 visitors, Way said the measure of success would be in the form of a traffic count. “If we can get them downtown then we’ve made a successful impact for the merchants downtown,� he said. “This is in addition to some other lighting projects that the town is working on. If you add everything up then we can make a big statement, and can continue to do that for many years to come.� Besides the economic spin-offs, Way said it also comes down to making a very strong impact on the quality of life and excitement for residents. “This is something they can be proud of and say to their friends from far, ‘Why don’t you come and check out our hometown,’� he said. “That’s something else we’re really excited about.� According to the Rochester Downtown Development Area, their event has led to an annual increase in sales of 15 per cent, a million visitors, community exposure, and new businesses becoming aware of Rochester, viewing its community as progressive and wanting to locate in town.

Raiders hang on for pre-season win Emmons brothers help cap Napanee’s third period rally By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER SPORTS p 2-1 heading into the third, the Amherstview Jets were poised to escape Tuesday’s pre-season match in Napanee with a win; that was until the Raider twins had their say. Donny Emmons tied it early and Luke Emmons completed the come back, putting the finishing touches on a 3-2 Raider win. Troy Wylie had Napanee's first goal, scoring late in the first. Kyle Copeland and Mike Brogee split goaltending duties, each allowing a Jets’ goal. The final score was in stark contrast to the two team's previous meeting on Aug. 25, which Napanee won 9-3. This time around the Jets were a lot older and a lot more reflective of the players that will break camp later this month. “I thought the guys played real well,” Raiders head coach André Roy said of his team. “They were composed with discipline. That's something that we didn't see last year.” An inability to stay out of the box hurt them last year, as they killed just 78.70 per cent of power plays, just percentage points ahead of Amherstview, whose 78.40 clip was worst in the league. In total Napanee allowed 49 power play goals, just five

The Napanee native had four had tries in six games, helping Canada to a flawless record at the North America Caribbean Rugby Association Sevens tournament, held in Ottawa Aug. 25-26. With the win Canada qualified for the 2013 Rugby World Cup Sevens, June 28-30 in Russia. They join the U.S. as the North American entries. “It was a great tournament, I had a lot of fun,” said Benn. “It was interesting to play with (girls she

We’re all out there with one goal, which was to win NACRA.” Canada not only ran the table at the event, but held their opponents off the scoreboard as well. They opened the tournament with a 62-0 win over Mexico, downed the Cayman Islands 50-0, beat Jamaica 45-0 and closed out the first round with a 39-0 victory over Trinidad and Tobago. In the semifinals they met Mexico again, winning 42-0 before capturing the tournament with a 46-0 win over Trinidad and Tobago.

Despite falling, Amherstview’s Josh Murphy still manages to fire a shot on net, which was blocked by Mike Brogee. better than the last ranked Port Hope Panthers. Tuesday’s match was quite the different story, as for the most part Napanee avoided the sin bin and clung to their one goal lead. “They walked away and that was a big thing for me to see,” said Roy. “They got recognized for that.” Though Tuesday marked Napanee’s third pre-season game, it was their first time they had to protect a slim lead in the third. Roy was pleased the team didn't take any ill-

advised penalties in the final frame and allowed the defense to stay at full capacity. Tuesday’s game was an important one for the unsigned players, as it was their last chance to state their case. Roy says ideally he’d like to field his opening night roster for their next exhibition game, which is Tuesday at home against Campbellford at 7:30 p.m. The Raiders will travel to Campbellford for one final tune up on Sept. 15 and then open the season Sept.

18 against the Jets. That game is set for 7:30 p.m. at the Strathcona Paper Centre. Off the ice the team is still accepting four player teams for their annual golf tournament, which will take place Sept. 22 at the Napanee Golf and Country Club. Cost is $80 per player.

Final cuts are made as Raiders whittle down their roster Plenty of new faces By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER SPORTS A disappointing 16-18-6 record last year coupled with a number of graduating veterans created an ample opportunity for the Napanee Raiders to make some changes. The team’s brass expressed concern over some of their veteran’s commitment level last year and made it clear that nothing was guaranteed heading into the 2012-13 campaign. “There was some of that idea where we wanted to come up with a new culture,” Raiders GM Adam Bramburger said of the

high turn over for this year. “One of hard work, practice is important, respect for yourselves and your opponents. It just so happened that we were graduating a lot of players but it certainly helps when we have such enthusiastic young guys ready to take on big roles.” The team dipped into the AAA level for some new blood, signing Andre Frappier, Colin Childerhose, Matt Horton, Alex Shotton, Evan Brown, Josh St. Peter, Joel Ferland and Zach Knapp-Hermer. Those rookies will make up about half of this year’s roster, with two more players still weighing their options. For those players still around from last year, Bramburger is hoping they take last year’s finish personally. Luke Emmons,

Donny Emmons, Bud Norris and Troy Wylie, once overshadowed by bigger names like Paul Fortin, Jeremy Burley and Jake Doseger, will now have the spotlight on them. “They almost have to lead because as much faith as we have in the younger guys, and we have a lot in them, it's going to be our core guys that have to pull them through until they get the feel of this level,” said Bramburger. Among the biggest gaps to fill is that of Doelman's offensive output, as he posted a league best 60 points in 38 games. His 28 goals were third best. Fortin was a distant second on the team with 35 points. Even last year’s third best scorer, Taylor Brown (26 points), has moved to Jr. A. “I think collectively as a team we should have

more offensive output,” said Raiders head coach André Roy. “Individually it’s pretty tough to replace those guys. I don’t think there’s a guy in our dressing room that could replace a Doelman by any means, and I say that with a lot of respect for the guys we have already and out of even more respect of what Colin Doelman did.” While one guy may not put up 60 points, Roy says a much more balanced offense could help replace those goals that have departed. There may be miscues along the way but the team had made their expectations mighty clear. This year’s team is expected to compete for a playoff spot and they aren't afraid to cut the playing time of anyone who isn't committed to that goal.

BENN… Back with Guelph Gryphons

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 23

“I didn’t realize it until the end of the tournament when the announcer said ‘Canada hasn’t had a try scored on them,’” Benn said of shutting out her opponents. “That obviously is a result of our head coach’s defensive system and how we play defense together. We meshed really well together. There’s only 12 of us, there’s a lot of repetition in practice. It’s not like 15s where there’s 25 players on the team.” Benn, who usually plays back and is used to scoring, had to get used to the forward position for this tournament. That meant focusing more on defense, taking part in scrums and lifting players, all a new experience for her. Now that she’s helped the team qualify, her next goal is to make the roster that actually uses the invite and takes part in the World Cup. Though her

performance in the qualifier should make a strong case for her inclusion, nothing is set in stone. “Whether I’m a part of that or not is certainly the coach’s decision,” said Benn. “It’s still up in the air, they’re still sending out potential cardings to athletes.”

‘I’ll take what I learned at NACRA, train harder and become a better player.’

Britt Benn

Any athlete that accepts a card is financially supported by Rugby Canada while they train for six months in Victoria, B.C. In the meantime Benn is currently back at the

University of Guelph, preparing for another season with the Gryphons. There she’ll be back to playing the 15s style, but will still continue training for 7s as well. Her coach, Collete McAuley, has played in a World Cup and will be a valuable sounding board for her training. “Going to NACRA itself was a great honour,” said Benn. “It was a great experience and you get that sort of rush and that first feeling what its like to play for senior women’s, competing at the highest level. I’ll take what I learned from NACRA, train harder and become a better player and learn the game better. Hopefully when (the Olympic games in) 2016 rolls around, I’ll be able to hop on the boat and play for the team and bring home a gold medal.” First things first, she's hoping to help the Gryphons defend their CIS title from last year.

When Ben Kashira’s family arrives in Toronto on Tuesday after being refugees in Kenya for the past six years, he is certain they’ll have lots of stories to tell. Since arriving in Kingston seven years ago — himself a refugee — Kashira knows with certainty that this reunion will be a life-changing experience for his family. “Everyone has a story and we’re just thankful to be in Canada,” he said. “I always tell people, don’t take this country were granted. This is a country for full opportunity for everybody, this is a country that gives help when you feel helpless.” Kashira lives in Kingston with his two sisters – Mimi and Miombi – and the family members in Kenya have all been sponsored the Anglican Diocese of Ontario. After escaping from the war-torn Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kashira said the first time he felt his life was being restored to normal was when he arrived in Canada. “You feel like somebody

Dominik Wisniewski - Staff

Ben Kashira, who now lives in Kingston, has been working hard to bring his family to Canada. when you arrive in Canada, and you can see how you’re going to build your life back up again,” he told the Beaver in Kingston recently. “That’s why we don’t take this country for granted.” Having spent eight years in Kenya as a refugee, Kashira finally found a sponsor in Kingston in 2006. “I fled the country when the war broke… by that time there was nowhere you could stay in the country,” he said. “There was the possibility that if you stayed in the country they were going to force you to go into the army. I was young at that time and I decided to go.” When he arrived in Kenya, Kashira says conditions were very poor.

“You are looking for refugee status and don’t have any documents to stay in the country,” he said. “I don’t even want to remember that, oh my God. You live like a slave, you don’t know where to go, you don’t find any help and you don’t have anything.” Kashira says he survived by selling things to people. “I became a slave in Kenya at the time because the conditions were really poor,” he added. For Kashira, knowing that his family members – his brother, two sisters, two cousins, two nephews and an adopted family member – will finally be home next week has been overwhelming.

Napanee’s Terry Fox Run gets lifeline Recently-retired firefighter Gary O’Neil answers call for new event organizer By Adam Prudhomme BEAVER STAFF WRITER

Adam Prudhomme - Staff

Gary O’Neil, who retired from the Greater Napanee Fire Service last week, acted quickly after learning the future of Napanee’s Terry Fox Run was in question.

Barely retired a week from the Greater Napanee Fire Service, Gary O’Neil couldn’t stop saving. His latest save is that of the Terry Fox Run, which was very close to figuratively going up in smoke. With just under two weeks before the Sept. 16 date and no organizer in place, the run was all but cancelled before O'Neil stepped up. Now working with previous organizer Joanne Haffie, O’Neil has ensured that the event will be held for a 32nd straight time. “My biggest concern when I took it on was do we have enough time,” said O’Neil. “(Haffie) said that she was pretty certain that we did. So I phoned Kim Smith of the Terry Fox Foundation (Tuesday) morning. She said it’s going to be a tight time line but it should be OK.” Much of the event

‘It’s not just one person that does it. It takes a team to make an event worthwhile.’

Gary O’Neil, Run Organizer

ebrated 29 years with the fire department, has taken part in the run in previous years and has known Haffie for several years. Though he admits he’s still not entirely sure what he’s taking on, he knew he had to do something. “I read in the paper (that the run was in jeopardy) and I thought that’s sad,” he said. “It’s been in Napanee for years. It’s an event where the whole family can take part. There are usually kids on bicycles with their parents, kids on rollerblades, parents are using their strollers. I think it’s a worthwhile event.” Now that he’s accepted the torch, the next big challenge is getting the word out that the run will in fact take place. While it doesn’t figure to be easy, breaking the string of 31 straight runs would have made things much tougher down the road. “It’s going to contin-

ue and that’s the key thing,” said O'Neil. “We could have let it go away for this year and say let’s not bother because its too short of a time line, but sometimes its hard to get going again. I think the Terry Fox Foundation has been doing a fantastic job. I just didn’t want this to stop.” Ideally O’Neil would like to form a committee for next year where different people could look after different aspects. For this year he’ll gladly accept any volunteers who want to assist in any capacity. Anyone looking to help out before or on Sept. 16 can e-mail Gary.Oneil7@gmail.co m, or call 613-354-9511, though he’d prefer email if possible. “It’s not just one person that does it,” said O'Neil. “It takes a team to make an event worthwhile.” O’Neil was scheduled to meet with Haffie today and collect pledge sheets, which he hopes to have available at local banks and businesses as soon as possible. Last year over 100 people took part in the Napanee run, raising $12,500. Runners are asked to collect pledges for friends and family, with all proceeds going towards cancer research. Last year $12 million was raised across Ontario. The run carries on the tradition of Terry Fox, who in 1980 set off on a trek to run from St. John's, Nfld to Victoria B.C. Though cancer forced him to stop his run near Thunder Bay, Ont., his courage inspired the yearly run which is held in over 60 countries.

Hundreds of thousands of people across Ontario are expected to participate in the annual Terry Fox Run on Sept. 16, a fundraising event now considered an autumn Canadian tradition. In 2011, millions of Ontarians participated in 225 community Terry Fox Runs and 3,900 school events, raising $12 million for cancer research. In 1980, when Terry Fox decided to run across Canada on a prosthetic leg to raise funds for cancer research, he knew he faced an immense challenge. After running almost a marathon a day for 143 days, Terry was forced to stop when cancer recurred in his lungs. His Marathon of Hope came to an end but the spark he had lit in the hearts and minds of Canadians ignited into a cancer crusade that has lasted more than three decades. There is no doubt that Terry’s example of courage and perseverance lives on today in ‘Terry Foxers’ of all ages. Andrew Douglas of Ilderton, Ont., was diagnosed with leukemia only two weeks after marrying his wife Michelle in 2004. During his years of battling this disease, he kept in touch with family and friends via email, calling his journey his ‘cancer portage’. Sometimes during a tough week, he would write, “the canoe was really heavy this week”, or, in a better week, “I can see the lake and the portage trail is relatively flat.” To celebrate his five-year post-chemotherapy milestone, Andrew portaged the five-kilometre Ilderton Terry Fox Run with a canoe on his shoulders. Members of ‘Team Douglas’, including Michelle and sons Chase, Reece and Bryce, together with 50 friends and family cried and cheered him on. Andrew’s inspirational example is a reminder that our paths may differ, but our destination is the same: a cure for all cancers. Two things kept Terry going during the long, difficult days in 1980: the dollars donated for research and the supporters who encouraged him along the way. On Sept. 16, hundreds of thousands of Terry Fox supporters, like ‘Team Douglas’, will participate in their favourite Canadian fall tradition to ensure that cancer research continues to forge ahead.

SCHOOL… Disappointment expressed about Southview’s incompletion

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

While the school did open on time, construction on vital systems inside the building continues. Fox said she is confident that crews working at the site have effectively cordoned off areas that are not accessible to students. “In fact, if you were in the school you wouldn’t really be aware or know that there was construction going on at the other side of the building,” she said. “Even the teachers have commented on how the students have really been taking it on as their home. They are so happy to be in their classrooms with their friends, so we’re finding that it’s really business as usual.” Asked about integration with students coming from two former schools – H.H. Langford and Westdale Park public schools – Fox said there is a larger school population here, but with the physical layout of rooms it is not as noticeable. “We have the classrooms arranged in pods so it does kind of create a ‘community feel for those grade levels,” she told the Beaver. “For example, you have three Grade 3 classrooms and they all share a little discovery room, so there is a lot of collaboration going on between the teachers.” Those teachers are encouraged to make connections and undertake joint planning to ensure students get to meet one another during their spare time. Checking out the school for the first time during a tour on Friday, Darien Shinniman, 11, saw his new Grade 6 classroom early on during the walkthrough. “I feel like I am going to get used to it after a while,” he said. His mother, Gail, said he’s ready to come back to school, adding that the larger footprint of the school and its accessibility features did stand out. “I think it’s going to be great with the layout of it,” she said. While he said his daughter is genuinely excited to be attending the new school, Max Kaiser – a former Program and Accommodation Review Committee member and H.H. Langford parent representative – said he was disappointed that the school opened with so much work left to be completed. “Yeah, they have held back the kindergarten classes at H. H. Langford, but with the pavement only backyard which is very small, and all the extra activity with construction workers that are going to be on site, it’s a safety issue,” he said. “I am so jaded with the board and their approach to business after the whole PARC process. It even comes right down to the name of the school, which came out of nowhere.” Kaiser said the name ‘Southview’ was not on any

family’s radar. “Rosebay was such a better name for the school because that’s what this was, Rosebay Dairy,” he said. It was earlier this year that trustees with the Limestone District School Board narrowed down the search for a name from 78 suggestions. Southview, Rose Bay and Greater Napanee Public School were the final three considered. “(Rose Bay) does speak to the history and they wanted something that spoke to the history, without being connected to the previous schools,” Kaiser said. “Over half the catchment area is rural.” Following his tour, Kaiser said the layout with centralized discovery areas is current to the education thought process, and he welcomed the full size gym and office space located at the front of the school. “You can see people coming in so there is all that security and safety. There’s that approachability, so I have no issues with any of the logistics of the school,” he said. “It is beautiful but it’s just unfortunate they threw away a perfectly good 40-year-old building to build the new one. Two of them in fact.” For Rosemarie MacKinnon, who toured the new site with her daughter Madelyn, the fact it was not 100 per cent complete was a letdown. “I thought it was nice but I am disappointed that it’s not finished. They put a lot of effort into it and it’s nice to see that our kids are going to start in a new school,” she said. “Madelynn has been in the portables for many years now at Westdale, so it’s nice to see that she’s going to be in a classroom with lots of light.” While she said that it’s not an issue for her daughter who is starting Grade 7, MacKinnon said she feels the population at the new school will take some getting used to for younger kids. “With the little kids I would kind of be a little worried right now,” she said. “It’s new challenges for the little ones but I think it’s going to be good development for the kids too, make them more independent.” For Madelynn, it was some of the creature comforts at the new school that stood out. “I never used a locker before so it was a good experience,” she said. Asked about her transition to Southview, Fox said she’s excited to join the team. “It has been an exciting process to be involved in,” she said. “When you think about building a house from the ground up, here you’re building a school from the ground up.” While putting all the systems in place and ensuring things go smoothly can be daunting at time, Fox said it is also an opportunity to do something pretty fantastic and special.
