The Hampton Herald

There has been some discussion recently about the “underground” economy in the Province with an estimate that around $100 million is lost as revenue to the government due to unclaimed income and other tax avoidance. Of course, the government would love to get their hands on a good size chunk of this untapped money, but first it might be nice for them to understand why an underground economy exists before they try and manage it. First, let me say that a small percentage of businesses of all sizes are just plain crooks and will cheat and otherwise do just about anything to put a few extra dollars in their pockets. Further, let me define two sizes of small business, small and tiny or little. A small business might have several employees or the owner has expectations of making a profit of let’s say more than $50,000. And then there are little businesses... ... supposing that I am a reasonably honest type person who would like to do what is right. So I plan on buying a used pickup and offer a yard cleaning service and general handyman stuff. I would hire one or two people part time if and when I had a larger job, and if I made $5,000 or $10,000 during the summer months to supplement my winter job at the port, I’d be happy. Great!! And then along comes the government. Do you charge HST or not. At this point it is optional but if your business is more successful than anticipated, it will become mandatory. Do you

spend maybe hundreds of dollars for accounting software and what about banking (use my current account or open a new one), incorporate or proprietorship (how do I know??) and there is more!! In order to use the truck as a business expense I need to calculate depreciation (what’s that), percentage of business and personal use and a record of every penny spent on gas, repairs and maintenance. And that is only a small fraction of what you could be in for!! You will become an unpaid tax collector if you charge HST, employ someone and need to withhold income tax, EI and CPP, and maybe pay for worker’s compensation, and maybe make installments on your personal income tax owing. In exchange, no one will thank you for being a good citizen. Most communications will involve how many thousands of dollars in fines or how many years you will spend in jail if you screw up!! Are you beginning to see why some businesses may start to cheat. I will likely have a part two, stay tuned. 0001

RCMP MUSICAL RIDE One of Canada's most recognized icons, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) Musical Ride, will be performing at Sussex, Princess Louise Show Complex on Tuesday, June 2 & Wednesday, June 3 at 6:30pm. The troop of 32 horses and riders will perform a variety of cavalry drills choreographed to music. Working through a unique medium, they support the RCMP community policing efforts throughout Canada. The Musical Ride was developed in 1876 by early members of the NorthWest Mounted Police to display their riding ability and entertain the local community. It has evolved over the decades into a uniquely Canadian performance enjoyed by tens of thousands of spectators every year. Sussex Lions Club is the host organization. There is inside seating at $12 and outside seating for $10. All tickets are being sold at Sussex Sobey's and Connie's Collectibles, Main Street, Sussex. Proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to various community projects to be announced. For further information contact: Lorraine Pollock 434-3053. 3497

HAMPTON RIVER RUNNERS UPDATE Fifteen weeks until the 15th Annual Hampton 5 Miler on Sunday, September 13! Time to shake off the winter blues, so why not make it your goal this summer to walk, jog or run this year’s 5 Miler! Hampton’s streets and sidewalks, subdivisions, and the wonderful new Trans Canada Trail make our community the perfect place

to get physical… to begin to work in the great outdoors on those New Year’s fitness resolutions that lay in hibernation during the past brutal winter. The Hampton River Runners encourage anyone and everyone interested in running or walking, but most importantly having fun! to come and join us. You only need to come and participate to become part of the group! You don’t need to be a running superstar - you may never have run before or maybe you are a seasoned runner. Our current group includes many ages, abilities and aspirations. Many of our group run or walk just to keep fit, some run to eat a guilt-free breakfast at Holly’s on Saturdays, some run races, 5km, 10km, ½ marathons and full marathons throughout the year. So your goal may be to get some extra physical activity, or perhaps it is to get yourself ready to participate in this year’s Hampton 5 Miler (the first Sunday morning after Labour Day weekend). Whatever your motivation, we welcome one and all to come and share experiences, bring your knowledge, take some knowledge away, be stimulated by the group and enjoy our camaraderie. You can always count on a group running or walking on Saturday mornings at 8:00am from Hampton High School. We run/walk whatever pace and distance suits us individually - many of us do a variation of the 5 Miler route while incorporating parts of the Trans Canada Trail. Showers are available at the school afterwards. We are often joined after our run by other friends and family members for a wellearned breakfast at Holly’s. For more information about the Hampton River Runners visit our website:hamptonriverrunners.com or contact a River Runner. 0034

GET FISHING GETTING PICKEREL ON THE HOOK This is the season for pickerel fishing! Pickerel, a smaller cousin of the Pike, is abundant in our area and a fish that is a ton of fun to catch. In fact, I have some friends that choose to fish for nothing other than pickerel for most of the year! Most pickerel you find will be around 16”-18” long, with larger ones getting closer to two feet or more. In the Spring, some people choose to keep pickerel for food, but as it warms up, their flesh become very soft, and often susceptible to parasites - not generally considered good for food, but still a great catch and release experience. To find pickerel, aim for water where there are a lot of weeds, pickerel love the grass! Adjacent to the public dock in Hampton is a popular place where you can fish pickerel from shore. I like to paddle my kayak next to a bank of

weeds and then cast my line parallel to the edge of the grass and retrieve it quickly along the surface. A top-water lure like a soft plastic frog or large spinnerbait which stirs up the water as you retrieve it fast would be a great choice; pink and white being the most popular colors. Once a pickerel notices the lure, it will often dart towards it and resemble a torpedo moving quickly through the water. Then the fish explodes out of the water to violently attack! This charge and strike will thrill most anglers, especially when you have a child out to witness it for the first time. Assuming you hook the fish, you then have a fun little fight on your hands. Be ready with your net if in a boat or kayak! Important to note with pickerel is that they have small but extremely sharp teeth and a lot of them! You do not want to ever put your fingers in the mouth of one of these fish. Use pliers to remove the hook. Also, because of these teeth, they may quickly destroy

your soft plastics after a few strikes, and often damage your leader. Bring several lures and use at least a 30lb leader for pickerel fishing, checking it regularly for damage. If a fish has put a nick into it, then change it out as the next fish may easily break the leader and swim away with your lure and hook. And of course, never hold fish by the gills, and be sure to get it back in the water as soon as possible, so that it can swim away happy and be caught again by the next angler! 0044

LISTEN IN LOVE’S RECORDS I started seeing Dave at many shows and since it was apparent we were both rabid music fans we struck-up a friendship based upon great music both on record and Live. Music is such a wonderful language that brings people and community together. This feature is about visiting Kingston resident Dave Love and admiring his awesome prominently Canadiana record collection and talking about, you guessed it music. “Before I started buying records I used to listen to the radio. Anytime a Canadian artist came on the radio I’d pay more attention. I remember being 9 or 10 (years old) and hearing bands like RUSH, Eight Seconds, tons of Canadian stuff. The fact they were Canadian meant something. It seemed as though they were people I could know rather than rock gods or whatever.” Dave elaborates on why his collection is such

a Canadian songbook.”I think there are about 7000 records in the collection and a couple thousand CD’s. Vinyl is more in vogue again. There are a couple reasons why. Partially it’s a trend, like a fashion statement and that might pass, the other part is people actually like to have something they can hold on too. The record is the right size. You can sit on your couch and admire the artwork. With a new record you also get a download card (code) so it’s the best of both worlds. I know people who buy the record, put it on the shelf and don’t play it, but they have the download.” Dave tells insightfully. Dave’s collection is partially located between two levels meticulously, upstairs and downstairs. We talk about what turntables he plays is records on? “I have a couple tables, they both sound good. The one upstairs is better quality, it’s from the 1970’s, it’s one of those hard core European tables. The one downstairs sounds fine but it’s just a cheapy, probably from the 80’s. For me I’ve always loved the record.

I’m not super big personally on fidelity, how well it sounds. In the collection there are definite cheapies with a few scratches on them, but they are still listenable. I actually like some of those little scratches, I like a used record, it's got character. Dave was diagnosed with MS a year ago. I wanted to know what music means to him today as opposed to the past. “Music has been a part of my life forever. It was always important in the past. Since my diagnosis I realized; that is why I go to all those shows and listen to this music.” I knew it (Music is therapy and good for your soul), but know I really feel it as well. It lifts you up, it takes you away from the pain or if you’re stressed out.

The Hampton Herald

Let your child be part of the process to decide which camp they want to go to. Give them a few options and let them choose what they’re most interested in. Summer camps can be an immersive experience into a favourite subject, or a brand new experience and a brand new set of people. To help your child get the most out of Summer camp, encourage them to leave their cellphone at home, or keep it turned off and in their pocket. This will help them to interact with the people around them and better enjoy the fullness of the experience. Whether your child is going away for a week, a month, or maybe it’s just a day camp, keeping a journal about what they did each day and recording the experiences will be a great way to remember their summer for years to come, and it may encourage them to journal on a more regular basis. If your child is going away be sure to include mechanical pencils (and extra lead) for them to journal with. Pens can easily leak on a hot day and ruin an otherwise perfectly good bag of clothes, and regular pencils need to be sharpened regularly, which could make a mess for other campers who are sharing a tent or cabin. If your child will be going away be sure to follow the packing list provided by the camp. Some camping gear can get


August 10-14 expensive so before you buy anything ask friends and relatives if they have anything your child can borrow. Look through local second hand stores for equipment that was gently used and still in good shape. Be sure to purchase a good whistle and a lanyard (Fox40 works best) for your child if they’ll be spending time outdoors. If they wander away from the group or become lost, the whistle will help anyone looking for them find them that much easier. When your child comes home be sure to ask questions about their day, try to make the questions specific and avoid questions that can be answered with a yes or no. Talk to your child about their favourite moment in the day and what they liked about it. Packing some pre-addressed & stamped envelopes can be a great way to encourage your child to write to you while they’re away at camp. Be sure to tuck the letters away and give them all back to your child when they’re older. If the camp allows it, a disposable camera can be a great way for your child to remember their time at camp, and it won’t be a big loss if it’s lost or stolen.

your back. Place your light items at the bottom of your pack. This is a great place for your sleeping bag, heavy sweaters and extra clothing. Heavy items should be placed above lighter items and should rest against your back when you’re hiking. This will keep your backpack from pulling down and back against you. If you know you’re going to be hiking over rough or hilly terrain, pack heavy items lower down in your pack to help keep your centre of gravity low to the ground. If you come across unexpected rough country

Packing A Backpack For Comfortable Hiking

Whether you’re taking the kids for a hike, sending a child to camp, or heading off into the woods for a sojourn with nature, packing your backpack correctly can really save

there’s nothing wrong with stopping and re-adjusting your pack. Bulky medium weight items can go in front of the heavy weight items which will be resting against your back. Small items, and anything that you’ll need quick access to should go in outside pockets so they can be grabbed quickly.

The majority of your backpacks’ weight should be carried by your hips and not your shoulders. This will help to ensure that you have a fun and enjoyable day hiking.

Make sure you adjust your shoulder straps correctly. For a normal daypack (similar in size to a large school pack) the top of the backpack should sit one to two inches below your shoulder blades. If you have a hip belt, make sure to have it resting over your hip bones and tight around your waist.

HAMPTON-PIGGS PEAK NEWS Last week, Free Speech Radio News posted an article saying “Swaziland has the world’s largest HIV epidemic, affecting roughly one in four people. The epidemic is showing signs of stabilizing and in recent years new infections rates have fallen. However, there’s a stark gender imbalance with respect to HIV incidence in Swaziland where women, especially young women, are much more vulnerable to the disease than men of the same age.” The article draws its information from the 2014 UNAIDS report that confirms Swaziland still has the highest national HIV prevalence rate in the world at 26 per cent. A third (31 per cent) of women are HIV positive, compared to a fifth (20 per cent) of men. HIV prevalence amongst youth (20–24) increased from 18.8 per cent in 1994 to 40.8 per cent in 2010. The good news is that the HIV epidemic is stabilizing as peak HIV prevalence has shifted to older ages for both sexes. What continues to be disturbing is the disproportionate amount of females

being HIV positive. The Swazi Observer, a major newspaper in Swaziland, recently published “Five ways protecting Swazi women from HIV protects the Nation”. First on the list was the recognition that “An educated girl and woman is less likely to be infected with HIV.” The article went on to say that “According to UNAIDS, illiterate women are four times more likely to believe there is no way to prevent HIV infection, while in Africa and Latin America, girls with higher levels of education tend to delay first sexual experience and are more likely to insist their partner use a condom. Educating girls has the added advantage of delaying their marriage and increasing their earning ability, both of which reduce their vulnerability to HIV. Educated women are also more likely to access health services for themselves and their children and to oppose negative cultural practices that can compromise their health.”

NO POWER? NO PROBLEM!

The UNAIDS report says that in Swaziland new infections among adults has seen a significant decrease in the past 6 years – more than 25 percent! This is very encouraging news. I believe that, through the Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership’s commitment to education and gender equality, we have played a small part in this achievement. We have seen first-hand the results of providing young women with an education. The intelligence and self-confidence exhibited by all the Nontokozos, Khanisiles and Nokuthulas that we have helped through school are clear examples of the qualities that will protect the women of Swaziland from the risks of HIV/AIDS. For only $25 per month you can become a Starfish sponsor and help win the battle against HIV/AIDS Swaziland by putting a young person through highschool.

IN THE GARDEN GARDEN CENTRES GALORE!! There is no doubt about it; despite the presence of ravenous deer, the stalwart members of the gardening fraternity seem ever willing to try to beautify their surroundings by purchasing and planting an ever expanding selection of flowers, bushes and trees; the garden centres are bringing in stock that are not often seen in these part, some of it will not over winter, so the buyer needs make sure that the zone that they are in matches with the zone indicated on the plant tag or there will be tears next spring! There is a fair selection of deer repellents on the market and a growing number of potions that gardeners have developed that do a fairly good job; sadly none of these will work on the veggie garden. Salad greens that have been liberally sprayed with concoctions including Murphy Soap Oil and Listerine can really put the damper on supper… so what is a poor

soul to do when the expense of erecting an eight foot fence is beyond their means? GOOD NEWS! Community Gardens are springing up in most communities and well established ones such as the Hampton one, encourages gardeners to grow an extra plot to supply the local Food Basket; along with the joy of being deer free there is an added advantage of working side by side with experienced gardeners who always seem willing to share their knowledge with others. Children are encouraged to join in the project, many flowers can be incorporated into the veggie plot with great advantage, some repel bugs... others collect them for easy capture and dispatch, and still others just make the garden look attractive, great for table decorations as the fruits of your labour are appreciated at meal times. Now that the full moon of June has passed it should be safe to plant almost everything, though care needs to be taken when shopping; plants that seem root bound (bulging out of their containers) are best avoided, or if found irresistible,

should be taken from the pot and set in water for a day with the roots gently teased out before planting. If buying plants from a greenhouse they need to be slowly hardened off; the shock to the system from warm greenhouse to cool earth while sustaining even a brisk breeze can seriously damage the plant....indeed can kill it. So, daily exposure to the outdoors in a sheltered spot and increasing the time spent outside each day will prepare them for life in the garden. If you are in the market for trees, for Heaven’s sake (and for the sake of your roofs, basement walls and plumbing) make sure that the tree you get has enough space to grow to maturity, without causing damage ; check the tag for height and spread, a sugar Maple can grow to a height of 130 ft! Blessings! 0038 Betty Kennett, Resident Green Thumb

The rest of the team is made of up of players from Saint John, KV, Moncton and Sackville.

GOT MILKWEED? Every year thousands of Monarch butterflies set off a long journey North from the hilly forests of Mexico where they’ve stayed for the winter. Over the course of the Summer three to four generations of Monarch butterflies will fly various legs of the journeys over the United States and up to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Wherever the Monarchs stop they must find Milkweed plants to feed on and reproduce. Milkweed is a native New Brunswick plant but over the past few decades it has been considered a weed, and has been cleared away from backyards and roadsides alike. This has caused the already endangered Monarch to have a difficult time finding the plant it needs to reproduce when it gets to New Brunswick. Recently though, Milkweed plants have been donated to the towns of Quispamsis, Rothesay, Hampton, and the city of Saint John to try and help restore the Milkweed plant in Southern New Brunswick. If you would like to help the Monarch butterflies be able to make their trip back

Monarch’s’ life-cycle depends on Milkweed Photo by Bev England to Mexico, you can plant Milkweed in your own backyard to help the Monarchs. Swamp Milkweed is a non-invasive (unlike the Common Milkweed) and requires slightly damp soil and full sun.

You can find Swamp Milkweed at Halifax Seed and other garden centres. With a few milkweed plants around your house you may soon spot some Monarch Butterflies fluttering around your backyard. 3529

HAMPTON ROTARY NEWS The Rotary Club of Hampton has provided bicycle helmets to grade two students in the area for the past 10 years. This program started at the Dr. A T Leatherbarrow Primary School in 2005. The following three years included Hampton Elementary School which at that time had a grade two. From 2008, Hammond River

Valley School was included; and this year grade two from Macdonald Consolidated has joined our group. The Rotarians feel they have helped prevent many childhood injuries because of this worthwhile project. This year the Rotary Club of Hampton has distributed 132 helmets. 0043

ASK THE CHEF FIDDLEHEADS ON THE RIVERBANKS & DINNER PLATE Colin Sifton here with another answer to your question. It is that time again when fiddleheads finally start appearing. It looks like it is going to be a good season so lets try something new this spring. Fiddleheads are an edible fern that grow along river beds and are found all along the Saint John River Valley. These ferns are picked before they open. Once they open, they are no longer edible and this is why the season is so short. Fiddleheads are a great antioxidant and are high in fatty acids, omega 3, omega 6 and are high in iron. Fiddleheads get their name from the shape resembling to head of string instruments. Every year I try and find new ways to eat these New Brunswick treasures. This year as usual I will be making our fiddlehead chowder here at Holly’s, but we were thinking of some new ways. Fiddlehead salad: Mixing blanched fiddleheads in with red onion, tomato, peppers, some kind of grain like quinoa and feta cheese. Toss this all together and let sit in the fridge for an hour before serving. Try and keep the fiddleheads wrapped up because they get a little hard to eat when they unravel. Another way would be to add fiddleheads to a quiche or an omelet. With its very mild flavour it won’t overpower your dish. You can add most anything to either of these dishes. For example any cheese, onions, tomato, salsa, ham and the list goes on. Try it for something new.

The last way I will suggest trying fiddleheads this season is in our fiddlehead chowder. We start by sweating off diced onions, carrots and celery in a pot. We add clear chicken stock but you can use vegetable stock as well. Add diced potatoes and bring to a simmer for one hour. This allows the flavours to come together. Add your fiddleheads at the end. The reason for this is that fiddleheads will cloud your stock and make it dark and not as appealing in sight. If you do add it early you will have a stronger fiddlehead flavour and maybe that is what you are looking for. Season to taste and there you have fiddlehead chowder. I hope this gives you a few ideas of different ways to use fiddleheads this year. If you have any family favourites that you do with fiddleheads I would love to hear about them. Stop by Holly’s as I am always around. As you know, the fiddlehead season is very short and it will be another 11 months before we get them back. 0040

WHY WE RELAY We started our Relay journey together, as we do everything important together. It all started with Michelle's colleague when she worked at Irving. She is a survivor and was heading up her team at the time in the Saint John Relay. With a mutual friend convincing us to join to team with only a month until Relay we didn't know what to expect. It's not like we had not been affected by cancer, but at the time it was not close. Will's Grandmother had died of a rare blood cancer, but to him that seemed like so long ago he couldn't remember. Michelle's mother had a co-worker who had passed from cancer, so she knew about it. Our first Relay was in 2011 and was an amazing experience! We couldn't even describe the level of emotion present at the Luminary Ceremony and it was at that moment that we knew we would never look back. The following year, we were ready, willing and able from the moment the team captain said go! We were at every event, every fundraiser and working closely with our families to get them to purchase luminaries and come to the

Luminary for Bill Peacock ceremony. We were hit closer to home with Will's Godmother having been diagnosed with a similar type of cancer to what his Grandmother had. We were fighting for someone we knew and it made all the difference. Two events would change the course of time and put us on a path to the Hampton Relay for life. Shortly after the Relay in June, Michelle stopped working for Irving, but at the time

stayed close with the team, planning on staying on board. We will never forget how our lives changed forever. Will's father arrived late one night in August and immediately we knew something was not right. He had been diagnosed with Hairy Cell Leukemia. Something we had been fighting against for the last two years had all of sudden snuck it's way too close to home. Within a few weeks we had formed a new team, Bill's Buddies, and we were starting to fundraise. The choice to come to Hampton was simple. Will's father had grown up the area, and to him it was home. Since Bill's diagnoses, Michelle's Grandmother has also been through treatment for breast cancer, which only pushed us further. We Relay because it only takes a minute for your world to change and for someone you love to be affected by cancer. We now have a baby on the way and hope for a future where he or she never has to know what cancer is! Michelle & Will Peacock, Co-Captains for Bill's Buddies since 2013. 3432

POINT OF VIEW DRESS CODE DECORUM What is appropriate? That's the age old question that surfaces in schools and workplaces each and every spring as temperatures rise and people shed those extra layers of clothing. Dress codes are those written and unwritten rules regarding clothing that can be traced back to the middle ages when they were used to identify people from different classes. Since then, dress codes have evolved to signify everything from our social status, occupation and gender to our ethnic, political and religious affiliations. Let's face it, what we wear is governed by the almighty dress code and is a guaranteed topic of discussion in the news, social media and many a lunchroom. Fair or not, we are judged by how we dress. And, right or wrong, what we wear leaves a lasting impression on those around us. The warmer weather invariably

spells trouble on the dress code front, especially if you're a high school student. I'm not sure if it's changing fashion trends, or if administrators are just more diligent about enforcing the rules, but it seems to be a daily topic of discussion this time of year. As the mother of a 15 ­year old daughter entering tenth grade, I see and hear stories almost daily about students who are made to change out of their “inappropriate” outfit while others can wear the same thing and nothing is said. I believe dress codes are important. But, I also believe it's equally important to be fair and consistent with the rules. I've yet to see or receive a copy of our school's dress code, yet I'm the one shelling out hundreds of dollars to purchase my child's clothing. The first week of school is a little late to be sharing the new, revised or otherwise non­existent dress code with students. It's important for parents to be diligent and for students to use common sense – crop tops, mini skirts, plunging

necklines and short shorts just aren't appropriate. I also know that these are current fashion trends and it is downright difficult to even find an age appropriate dress that falls to the knee or a button shirt with sleeves. There is something to be said for school uniforms (I know my daughter is rolling her eyes in disgust at the suggestion). I wore one for three years and this I know for sure ­you never have to think about what you're going to wear. You'll never have to worry about breaking the “code” and you won't stand out from your classmates for anything other than your personality. 0032

MUSINGS SUGAR, SUGAR For the last few years Mike and I have been working on restoring selected tree species in the family woodlot, with the goal of returning it to a closer semblance to what should be growing there in a true Acadian Forest. One of the species we are sadly missing is Sugar Maple. These are the lovely big maple trees that are tapped for maple syrup, the leaf of which is on the Canadian flag. We have LOTS of maple on the property, but they are red maple and a few striped maple, not sugar. For a long time we thought there were absolutely no sugar maple on the 150 acres, but last year we identified one seedling and one mature (but not very healthy) tree. We also transplanted a few dozen little seedlings and at least some of them have survived. Yahoo! Another 30 years or so and they should be big enough to start having their own little seedlings to raise. Hmmm . .

. maybe we can help them along a little more. I am not that patient! A few years ago I committed to daily walking, so most working days I head out from the office for a midday walk. Last year I noticed little sugar maple seedlings sprouting up along my walking route and took some home to transplant to the woods. (Where did you think those seedlings I mentioned earlier came from?) Since I know at least some of them survived, this spring I was on the lookout for more of the little critters. Sure enough, this week they appeared. Now each day I walk I am on the hunt for more baby maple trees. Like the preschooler coming home with a handful of dandelions for Mom, I gleefully celebrate each sugar maple rescue. This year I noticed a few slightly larger seedlings down over a bank. Without a thought I am sliding down after them, in my long dress and sneakers. Of course, once down over the edge I spy another a few feet along,

and then another one past there again. Each was just a few steps further, but then I realize I am well down in there and with my seedlings clutched in one hand and my long skirt in the other so I don’t trip over it, I am not sure I can climb back out. I was not about to sacrifice any of the maples, so I was well motivated and managed to make it back to roadside without mishap. If any of you happened to see some strange old lady crawling out of the ditch, it was likely me. "The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson. 0002
