It’s hard to believe that six months ago Kevin and I were still talking about making the Ossekeag Publishing dream a reality. I was working full-time as a legal assistant in Saint John and Kevin was busy operating two businesses in Sussex. We were in the middle of purchase negotiations, eagerly awaiting the next chapter in our lives. We had also just learned we were expecting, which suddenly created a whole new set of concerns and considerations. Now six months later I am amazed at how far we have come! Kevin and I were incredibly lucky that the business came fully staffed with an amazing group of people who have continued to work with us throughout the transition period. We lost one member of the team during the buyout, and our administrator left shortly thereafter. Fortunately, Shelley came back to work for us at the front desk and she fit back into the Ossekeag team seamlessly. Two weeks ago we welcomed Karey Kaye as our new assistant editor; she will be helping Beth for the next few weeks before

taking over the position permanently. Beth was set to retire this June, but will be staying on for a few months while I finish out my maternity leave. With Carmen, Vanessa and Jon as our sales reps, and Sean and Jesse heading up the graphics department we have a well-rounded and very talented group of people willing to go that extra mile for the business and our clients, which is a truly incredible gift for any business owner to be given. We have received a heartwarming response from the communities we serve as well, which is both humbling and inspiring. We have had the opportunity to form community partnerships with different organizations and businesses and look forward to creating more relationships in the future. Kevin and I truly love being able to connect with individuals through our publications and reading or hearing the reader responses is the highlight to many days. Now that the weather is (hopefully) warming up and we are all starting the shake off those winter doldrums (doesn’t it seem to be taking a long time for spring fever to burn away that winter laziness this year?) Kevin and I want to take the opportunity to thank our staff for sticking with us through the last six months. We would also like to introduce ourselves to the communities that have welcomed us in our new adventure by hosting a “Meet and Greet” Grand Opening on June 3, 2017 from 1:00 to 4:00. There will be cupcakes and refreshments available, as well as colouring pages for the kids of all ages (designed and drawn by our very own graphic artist Jesse Griffin) who would like the opportunity to express themselves artistically. We will be on hand at the Ossekeag Office, 242 Main Street, Hampton on Saturday, June 3, to meet with any advertisers or readers who would like to stop by and share their stories about Ossekeag, past and present or to talk about the future. We look forward to the opportunity speak with you! 0001

HHS GRAD CLASS NEWS Thank you to all the grads who participated in our scavenger hunt and university clothing day. Both events had great turnouts! With only a few weeks of school left before graduation and prom, we have one final event for our Grad Class of 2017. We will be making a Grad Class mural using Masonite, as well as playing beach volleyball in the courtyard and tie-dyeing clothing. Students will have to pay $2 for a square of Masonite and the paint will be provided. Graduates can leave their mark behind with their

own personalized tile, which will be displayed in our school. This will be happening on June 8 from 3:30-5:00pm. Prom dinner tickets for non-graduates will be on sale from June 5 - June 9 at lunch hour for $30. Even though Prom Dinner is included in the grad fee, grads will still be asked to pick up a ticket during that time and sign their name, so caterers have numbers. Grad Dinner is this Thursday, June 1, at 6:00pm. Submitted by Keira Williams, Grad Class Executive 0011

uNFILTEREd SUMMER FOOD AND WINE PAIRING MADE EASY Summer is just around the corner! And after a seemingly long Spring the time has finally come to fire up those barbecues. In hot weather most of us are likely to switch to lighter fare such as Summer salads, fresh fruit, grilled fish and chicken, and as such the warmer weather also means switching to lighter more refreshing styles of drink, such as ciders, radler, wine spritzers and summery cocktails. No matter what your preference may be, there are a few things to keep in mind when deciding which drink to pair best with your meal. The most important consideration is weight. Balance is key. Light foods such as fish, fresh veggies, and chicken go beautifully with drinks that are also light, such as light white wines, sparkling wine, lagers, pilsners, and

The Hampton Herald

light cocktails. Conversely, bolder dishes such as BBQ steak, ribs and lamb chops require bolder drinks such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Shiraz, Stout, Bock Beer, etc. A perfect pairing of food and wine will always result in both the meal and the wine tasting better together than each individually on their own. I have compiled a list of some musttry summer food and wine pairings below. They will really increase the ‘wow’ factor and impress your guests. So go ahead and try a few, you will not be disappointed. BBQ Ribeye Steak with Cabernet Sauvignon: Smoked Baby Back ribs with Zinfandel; Planked Salmon with Pinot Noir or Rosé; Grilled Burgers Stuffed with Sharp Cheddar with Merlot; Skewered Lamb Kabobs with

Shiraz or Bordeaux; Spinach Salad with Vinho Verde; Italian Caprese Salad with Verdicchio; Strawberry Shortcake with Moscato 0042

HAMPTON-PIGGS PEAK NEWS Some of you may have read a recent story in the Telegraph Journal about the Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership. Emily Baron Cadloff interviewed Jill Darrah, one of our committee members. The article covered many Partnership projects but Jill spoke to Emily with particular emotion about the importance of an education in Swaziland, especially for girls. She emphasized the value of an education as a proven way to reduce the spread of HIV/AIDS but also explained that, as much as anything, an education provides hope for the young people of Piggs Peak. Jill has been a member of the Partnership committee for over 10 years. It was clear from the interview that, even after all these years, Jill is still enthusiastic about our mission to provide “help, hope, and opportunity for a better future… one person at a time”. But that is no surprise; in fact, I would say it is a common trait amongst all our committee members. A number of committee members have actually visited Piggs Peak – Maureen Robichaud, Bev Harrison, Laura Myers, Chris Rendell, and Ross Henderson have all been there, as have my wife, Lisa, and I. We have seen the overwhelming poverty and the devastation to families caused by AIDS. But we have also seen the enormous positive impact the people of Hampton are having by paying for school fees, supporting grandmothers, and contributing to other projects in Piggs Peak. Our other committee members – Robert Doucet, Heather Richard, Sue Hooper, Liz Szalma, and Carl MacKenzie – have not been to Piggs Peak, but they are just as committed and make an enormous contribution to the work of the Partnership. We can see that we're making a noticeable difference and that helps keeps all our volunteers engaged.

Although we committee members share the stories about life’s difficulties in Piggs Peak and provide the opportunity to help, it is the people of Hampton who make the partnership work. Jill articulated this well when she said “It’s just such a neat group of creative, interesting, giving, knowledgeable people who just want to help. It’s not just pockets of people, the whole community really has a sense of giving back… as well as what they can do beyond our borders.” I think I can say, for all our committee members and volunteers, that the positive changes we are making through our work is extremely fulfilling. And, even though there is a lot of effort required from the almost constant fundraising, there is a certain current of “electricity” that runs through our group and keeps us energized. I know it has also extended to many of our supporters. If you are interested in getting involved in what we are doing, contact me, Mark Bettle, at markbettle1@gmail.com. 0010

KENNEBECASIS WATERSHED NEWS & WORKSHOP It may come as a surprise to many to learn that there is a managed recreational fishery on the Kennebecasis River; with low Atlantic salmon returns, there is no salmon fishing allowed on the Kennebecasis River. While many people know this, many are unaware of the catch and release and fly fishing only regulations that exist on the main stem of the river to help protect speckled trout populations. From McCully Station Road up to Ketchum’s Brook is regulated as a catch and release section of water and allows for fly fishing and artificial lures only. The entire main stem of the river, up to the Malone covered bridge, is fly fishing only after July 1 each year. Why are these restrictions in place some might ask? Following a comprehensive study and consultation process through the 1990s it was determined that overfishing was becoming detrimental to Brook Trout stock in the watershed. Further it was determined that the best breeding and refuge habitat for salmonids (trout and salmon) in the Kennebecasis

existed in that section of river above McCully Station Road. To give the fish a better shot at successful reproduction that section of river became regulated. With the fly fishing only regulation in place the Kennebecasis Watershed Restoration Committee (KWRC) wanted to assist those anglers who couldn’t fly fish learn how so that they could still enjoy the river. To do that they developed a workshop to teach people how to fly fish. Coming up on Tuesday June 6 & Wednesday, June 7 the KWRC will host its annual “Beginner’s Fly Fishing Workshop.” This event will teach anglers the basics of fly fishing so that more anglers can abide by the regulations put in place by the Department of Energy and Resource Development (formerly Natural Resources) while also learning how to become better stewards of the resource they enjoy. To find out more about the workshop contact KWRC Project Manager Ben Whalen at 433-4394 or via email at: ben. wahlen@kennebecasisriver.ca. 4553

In lieu of thank you cards, a donation has been made by the family to the Extramural (KV Unit) program that assisted in taking care of him. May 30th - June 12th, 2017

FAMILy MATTERS BENEFITS OF GROWING A FAMILY GARDEN Gardening offers family fun. In a garden, your family can be active, relax, and spend time together. Growing vegetables or herbs teaches children that plants, like people, need food and water to grow and stay healthy. A garden can teach your child about new foods and the importance of eating a variety of colors. Caring for plants helps develop responsibility and self-esteem because kids see what they can grow. Gardening also requires the use of all senses since kids usually taste what they grow! Here are 7 more benefits: 1. Children can learn about how food is produced - taking them outside what they see in the grocery store. They’ll have the chance to see that food isn’t just “born” at the store and that there are many steps involved in getting food to their plates. 2. Your kiddos can gain an appreciation for nature and the importance of insects like bees. Family time in the garden means contact with nature and the environment.

A garden is a fantastic way to teach about connectedness, ecosystems and the importance of diversity. 3. A garden helps children to have pride in their work. Children are always more pleased when they can pick produce off a plant that they helped to plant. 4. Depending on your kids ages, they could be responsible for making sure the garden is watered. They can take out weeds and pick what is ripe, allowing them to see that caring for a garden involves all kinds of different tasks – not just eating! 5. Gardens help teach generosity. Sometimes you just have too much of a certain type of produce. Let your kids learn the benefits of giving by giving away excess produce to friends, family, and neighbors. 6. Gardens provide opportunities for learning life skills like cooking. Your children can learn how to prepare meals

that they might not normally make and understand that cooking includes much more such as meal preparation and cleaning up. 7. Starting plants from seeds is a wonderful science lesson. Imagine your children’s delight when they look outside to see the tall tomato plant with a bounty of red fruit on it, and to know that they helped it grow from a tiny seed. This week take time to build a garden, plant the seeds that will allow your family to grow together and enjoy the parenting journey. 0006

Saint Andrew’s Kirk United Church

175 Anniversary th

HISTORICAL NOTES OF SAINT ANDREW’S KIRK Troubles in Scotland during the 18th and 19th centuries generated a steady flow of immigrants to Canada, and many Scots settled along the Atlantic coast, including this area. Canada had plenty of land, jobs and new opportunities to offer, although immigrants also faced many challenges. The first prime minister of Canada was Scotsman Sir John A. Macdonald, born in Glasgow, Scotland. This year, Canada is celebrating 150 years as a country and Saint Andrews Kirk is celebrating 175 years of service to the community. The story of our little “Kirk” (which means church) begins as follows:

sometimes very harsh as we read on the tombstones of the many deaths of young adults and children. The survivors formed a strong core of faithful followers. In 1880 the Kirk was extensively remodeled, the congregation going into debt to do the work. That same year, at the instigation of the choir, the congregation voted to introduce an organ into the service of worship despite the objection of the elders.

John Presbytery advised forming a new pastoral charge consisting of Saint Andrew’s, Salina and Southfield. 1992 was a year of celebration of our 150th anniversary. The fact that we did not have an ordained minister from mid-1991 to mid-1992 did not dampen our festive spirit. Mr. Erik Kraglund was our supply lay preacher. We enjoyed many social events and various guest speakers throughout the year. We had our 20th and final annual chicken barbeque in June. We had a fabulous year of celebration at our little Kirk. Also our first female Minister, Rev. Michele Smith, had her covenanting service on June 30th, 1992.

In 1925, this Presbyterian congregation voted to enter Church Union with Methodist and Congregationalist as At the suggestion of the Reverend part of the United Church of Canada. Mr. Stevens, a Scottish missionary, a Then in 1930, the Kirk became part of few Scotsmen and the descendants of the Hampton Pastoral Charge. In 2012, we celebrated our 170th th Scotch men met on the 6 of October anniversary. Activities included a 1841. In which to devise a plan for In 1977 at our 135th anniversary the sleigh ride at Lily Lake, Ecumenical obtaining funds to erect a building for new hall was dedicated, along with a Service, talent Show, outdoor worship public worship, and a piece of ground memorial book, brass offering plates service, and a potluck supper.

IN THE gARdEN ABUNDANCE OF BLOSSOMS IS A GOOD THING...SOME EXCEPTIONS! The display of spring blossoms really gives both heart and soul a lift; we bury dead looking bulbs in the fall and new and breathtakingly beautiful life emerges miraculously in the spring. In order that the investment placed in our spring gardens might yield future abundance it is essential to remove all dead flowers from Daffodils, Tulips, Hyacinth etc. The stems should be cut off at their base but all leaves be left in place. They will continue to feed the bulbs which will not only produce more robust flowers next spring, but will multiply the number of bulbs. Removing the spent flowers, all the plant’s energies will go toward these two goals. Needless to say, when the clump grows too thick the quality of bloom will diminish… too many folk in a small tent gets uncomfortable. So, if the clump is getting cramped; wait until all the foliage is practically withered away, dig up the whole works and allow the bulbs to dry off; they will then easily

separate and can be re-planted in a new spot with a dash of bone meal and compost, or shared. Some exceptions! Well clearly, not all flowers are welcome in the garden, or indeed in lawns! Please refrain from using toxic weed killers. To deliberately introduce harmful chemicals into the atmosphere and the waterways is simply inviting disaster, there are alternatives! A wheelbarrow, Dandelion digger and an hour’s light work can dispatch a massive pile; Dandelion greens, when young, are a tasty addition to a salad and Dandelion wine is a very respectable product. With all the many jobs in the garden it is not possible to get everything done at once, so even if there’s not enough time to get all the weeds out at once, then concentrate on the ones in bloom. Young children love to pick flowers, encourage them to help by picking the weeds, teach them their names and maybe look up some of the interesting folk lore that

abounds in the world of nature; make it an educational experience and maybe grow enthusiastic gardeners! Now that the Forsythia has finished blooming the bushes could do with a good pruning. They have a tendency to get straggly and one can propagate new bushes by simply burying a low lying branch into the soil and weighting it down, by Fall it will have grown new roots and can be transplanted to a new site.

Gordon & Thelma Floyd began their retail career in 1952 at their General Store in Titusville. At that time they sold groceries, hardware, gas and farming supplies, as well as some G.E. appliances. As the appliance business continued to grow, Gordon decided to take a big leap, and sold the General Store to specialize in appliances alone. He formed a partnership with General Electric, and set up Floyd’s Store Ltd., at the current location at 739 Main St. in 1986. Kathy joined the business in 1984 just before the move. Ed Dickison, Paul O’Neill, Joey Lott and Jane Arseneau have since become part of Floyd’s staff. And don’t forget Jingles (our store cat), who is a big part of the Floyd Family Business. Gordon once said, “People want to go to someone they can trust

to provide good quality products at reasonable prices, with good warranties, and knowledgeable people to help the customers make their appliance choices and also help them when something goes wrong. We are always there for our customers”. Kathy & Thelma are now the owners of Floyd’s Store Ltd., and Gordon’s words are still the guidelines that is used to service the many customers that visit and buy from them. The business continues to be a success thru hard work and dedication, as well as the support of their loyal customers and new ones as well. Kathy & Thelma would like to thank the Town of Hampton from their ongoing support during the past 65 years.

MORE THAN FITNESS SUMMER FITNESS We are quickly coming upon the summer break for students and by this point in the year, most parents and kids are anxiously awaiting this break! It is a time to relax and enjoy the summer weather and a more relaxed schedule. However, it can also be a time that children are less active. If your kids are not involved in organized sports, looking

for ways to keep them active can be difficult. Trying to juggle childcare and busy work schedules over the summer can leave little time to think about physical activity but it is so important for our children.

eight Canadian children gets enough physical activity on a regular basis - a shocking and sad statistic. Here are a few tips to help keep your children active throughout the summer months. Don’t rely only on organized sports to keep your kids active. While it can be a great way to get in some of your physical activity, it is also important to find activities that keep play fun. Find things to do that are outside structured practices and games such as a day of swimming or running in the park. Find time to take little mini adventures with your kids and explore somewhere new. Turning off the TV is another way to ensure that your kids are more active. It has become such a part of our society that we do not even realize how much time we lose sitting in front of our favorite TV shows. By setting up a set time that your child can watch TV each day, they will begin to look for other ways to entertain themselves. Sending them outside to enjoy some fresh air can lead to all kinds of adventures that use the imagination and get the body moving. Another great way to get your kids active and also enjoy some quality time with the is to get out and try some new activities together. With the longer days and less need for schedules and routine in the summer, it is easier to take some time after work for a little fun and adventure. Hop on your bikes and hit the trails, drive to a park and throw the Frisbee or find another way to get outside even for just a half hour and enjoy some family time together. Summer can be a time of great adventure for all ages so get out and enjoy all our area has to offer while getting physically active with your kids – you will all reap the rewards! 0044

HAMPTON LIONS’ BINGO Fabulous Five Bingo: Every Tuesday evening at the Hampton Curling Club (48 Cemetery Road). Doors open at 5:30, Early Bird games start at 6:30,

regular games at 7:00pm. There are five Pot of Gold numbers. We have Treasure Chest, Pyramid and Winner take-all, as well as regular games. Canteen on site.

Did you know... Travel trailers not insured on their own policy are running the risk of no liability when they are not attached to the vehicle. Many have travel trailers on their auto policy with coverage for physical damage should a loss occur. What a lot do not realize is the liability exposure once you are set up at your camp site and the camper is now unattached from the vehicle. Once your travel trailer is no longer attached to your vehicle there is no coverage for liability.

By having a separate policy for your travel trailer, you have the peace of mind know that you are covered for the liability. ..AND DID YOU KNOW THERE ARE NOW TWO WAYS TO WIN A $50 GAS CARD IN OUR MONTHLY DRAW?

Refer a friend and when they call for a quote your name will be entered in our monthly referral draw for a chance to win a $50 gas card. Already insured with Hovey? Ask us to quote a second or subsequent policy and your name will be entered into a separate monthly draw for each quote given.

LIFE bALANCE THE SECRET TO HAPPINESS “Connection with a loved one is oxygen for us all.” ~ Dr. Sue Johnson. Numerous studies have been conducted with the following question in mind: How can one lead a fulfilling life? For years, this question has boggled the minds of many people. What is the answer, exactly? Is it more money? A successful career? More material goods? As we live in a world where we must divide our attention among so many factors - career, home life, social life… prioritizing our lives in hopes of gaining fulfillment can be difficult. The Grant and Glueck study, which seeks to answer this mind-boggling question, did so in an impressive and revolutionary way. Over a period of 75 years, a series of researchers tracked and studied the physical and emotional well-being of more than 700 people. According to Robert Waldinger, the current director of the Harvard University study, the answer to a fulfilling life is simple: good quality

relationships lead to happier, healthier and more fulfilled individuals. The key word here is quality. It is not about the number of friends that you have in your circle, or how long you have been with your romantic partner. It is rather the closeness of the relationship that matters. How safe do you feel with the person? How deep is your relationship with them? How vulnerable can you be around them? These are all questions that can measure the quality of a relationship. Having that special connection with someone has significant physiological, emotional, psychological and physical repercussions. For instance, a more relaxed nervous system, a clearer and healthier brain and reduced physical and emotional pain are some of the benefits named in the study. So the next time you are on your phone, aimlessly scrolling through Facebook or Instagram instead of being present with a close friend or significant other, consider putting the

phone down – for the sake of your mental health, among other things. It is important to note, however, that not fully dealing with your own emotional or mental distress caused by difficult life events, such as losing a family member, losing a job, or a car accident, can potentially damage the quality of a relationship. This is a good reminder to seek help from a professional if you are struggling through personal issues. Your happiness depends on it.

ATHLETES GO TO CANADA CUP OF FOOTBALL

Hampton’s Ben Asselstine and Brad Blizzard join Team New Brunswick

This summer Football New Brunswick will be taking two local Hampton athletes with them to the Canada Cup of football for players under 18 years of age. The Canada Cup is an annual

competition between the provinces for the bragging rights to high school football supremacy in Canada. During our Sesquicentennial Ben Asselstine (from Hampton's 2015 Provincial Champions) and Brad Blizzard (2016 All Star) have been chosen from the Hampton High Huskies. Ben and Brad and six of their Hampton High teammates (Dawson Hastings, Connor Rennick, Devyn Watmore, Zac McKenna, Jordan Stack, and Jacob Stack) were among the 180 athletes from 21 New Brunswick high schools invited to compete for 55 places on Team NB. All of the Hampton student athletes represented our community well with Brad and Ben becoming the first Hampton players to be selected to Team NB since Mike Bettle, from Hampton's 2013 Provincial Championship team, who went on to star in the CIS before graduating this year from Mount Allison University. It is a great honour to be chosen to represent your hometown any time and to selected to represent New

Brunswick in such a significant year of Canada's history is a special privilege and honour. Heartfelt thanks to Lifestyle's Fitness for assisting all our athletes in preparing for Team NB Camp. Congratulations Ben and Brad, you do us proud. All the best in The Canada Cup. 4527

Local First Shop Local history has a funny way of repeating itself. Once upon a time, as towns and villages first started developing into cities the idea of “shopping local” and supporting local did not exist. Most food stuffs and services were, by the very nature of society, locally obtained. The barter system was an effective type of commerce as money was scarce and neighbours traded supplies and services as

Be L o c a l . a matter of course. With the rise of industrialization came the era of mass marketing which, over the course of a few centuries, resulted in box stores and globalization. In Canada, the Twenty-first century started with a trend for on-line and cross boarder shopping, produce obtained

from exotic locations and pre-packaged ‘convenience’ foods. More recently, as people become increasingly aware of the effect such policies have on the local economy, the trend of supporting local is reasserting itself. With a newfound appreciation for local artisans, Farmer’s Markets and Craft Shows are now in vogue. By shopping local, one also has the satisfaction of knowing that purchase is helping to provide

a living for a local family. Whereas the supermarket will not readily notice the purchase of a bag of carrots, for your local farmer this may be the difference between a successful year and a poor one. That famer may then have the opportunity to expand his operation, hire additional workers or purchase new equipment, thereby

stimulating his local economy. The idea of supporting smaller, local businesses is also regaining popularity as people become more interested in developing sustainable communities rather than seeking out the faster, cheaper, solutions provided by the box stores. Often, products obtained locally are

made with local ingredients or supplies. Rather than being mass marketed, the item, whether a crocheted afghan or loaf of bread, represents a labour of love, an opportunity for the supplier to engage in a favourite activity rather than representing a chore. Not only does supporting local improve the economy, it also helps to promote our local communitiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; diverse heritage, celebrating our roots and preserving parts of our history for future generations.

ASK MARy AM I CARING TOO MUCH ABOUT WHAT OTHERS THINK? Interesting question, because what defines too much? To say “do only what you want”, risks sounding arrogant. But to say that you should “put others needs before your own”, sounds rather spineless. We all, to some degree, worry about what others think, because there is always going to be someone whose love and attention we desire. For myself the honest answer is “Yes, I have often cared too much about the opinions of others”. However, after my husband’s death I learned that I had to stop being anxious, wasting time and worrying about others. Life is brief, too brief - so take off that “mask” of being okay with what everyone else wants and speak out about your own needs. By giving control over to the opinions

of others, you rob yourself of an opportunity to truly grow. Your life has been a creation of good and bad experiences. The wisdom you’ve gained makes you the person you are today. In the end, you matter just as much as anyone else, because you have value too. Get clear about what you most want to give and if you have doubts, pause and think about it. If you’re uncertain than it’s a sign that something is off-balance. To create a new life for yourself, you have to get clear about who you are, what you believe and what you think is important. Happiness comes first from recognizing your own worth, and not from what others think of you. It starts with having the clarity, energy and knowledge to live a life free of the anxiety and emptiness

that comes from trying to please everyone but yourself. Listen to you inner voice and if you find yourself wondering if you are caring too much, then you probably are. Please email me your questions: mary@ thesisterhoodofwidows.com 0016

gONE FISHINg PADDLERS’ DERBIES This Spring has brought a lot of rain and dreary weather; with that water levels in our lakes and rivers have been higher through May than we would like. If you have been stymied with your fishing trips, keep trying, conditions are going to be right for you soon. For those looking for great opportunities to get out and meet some fellow anglers, there are several friendly events happening around the province in June. Derbies are great ways to get your kids interested in fishing as there will be other kids present at many of these events, giving your child an opportunity to make a new fishing buddy. First up, on Saturday, June 3 is the first of two paddlers events will be held in Oromocto at the Ecological Adventures building. This tournament is a multi-species event meaning you want to catch and photograph as many different types of fish as you can; size

doesn’t matter. My youngest, at 4 years old landed 6 different species two years ago, all with a simple worm on a hook! Events like this are not only a lot of fun, but a great way to learn about so many of the different species that live in our river systems. On Sunday June 4, there is the annual Cassidy Lake fishing derby where you get to explore the lake and fish for chain pickerel. Note, this first weekend in June is the weekend where the province works to promote fishing and no license is required for anyone to go fishing! The following weekend again offers a couple of great options starting with the second in the paddlers mini-series. On Saturday June 10 the multi-species event moves to the YMCA Camp Glenburn on the Kingston Peninsula. For anyone who registers for both paddlers events, there will be a draw for a brand new kayak! Also on June 10, up on Salmon River

in Chipman is the annual Monte Farrel Shad Derby. I’ve attended this one the past three years and have had a wonderful time. The serve a great breakfast, have lots of time to socialize and if you enjoy shad, you’ll be able to bring one home to cook up for the family! There may be even more events open for you and your family coming up in June, you just have to watch out for them. Keep an eye on the NB Anglers Facebook site or for links to the web pages for these and other great events, just pop onto the event calendar on my blog at: nbkayakfishing. ca. 0043 Joe Tilley Fisherman at Large

KINGS COUNTY MUSEUM CRAZY QUILT The Kings County Historical and Archival Society is kicking off our celebration of Canada's 150th birthday on Saturday, June 10th at 2:00pm. We are hosting Dr Ed MacDonald, Chair of the UPEI History Department, at the Hampton Seniors Resource Center to talk about "The Charlottetown Conference, Why it Matters". This will be followed by the unveiling of the "Confederation Quilt" at the Kings County Museum for those who attended the talk. On Sunday June 11 from 1:00 - 4:00pm there will be an Open House at the Museum for a public viewing. The Confederation Quilt created by Frannie Parlee is a "crazy quilt" made up of numerous small pieces from dresses of the ladies who attended the Confederation Balls. The information from the family is that it was made in 1864 and repaired in 1895: both dates are embroidered on the quilt, as is Frannie's signature. It has been carefully restored by the Canadian Conservation Institute and was returned to the Kings County Museum late in 2016. As part of our celebration, the Kings County Museum will be creating our own crazy quilt. To help in this project, we would love to have any fabric scraps

HAMPTON ROTARY NEWS

Confederation quilt you may have on hand that would make good quilt material. As visitors come through our doors they will be given the opportunity to choose a fabric piece and sign it to be included in our very own sesquicentennial quilt that will be quilted for us from these pieces by a local quilt guild. Solid fabrics are preferred rather than prints. Each piece different, creating a beautiful whole . . . just like our country. 4539

LIVE wELL “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.” Mark Twain Courage is defined as the ability to do something that is frightening or having strength to endure painful situations. History is replete with examples of courageous men and women from Moses parting the Red Sea while leading the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt; Joan of Arc, a peasant girl who led a French army against English occupation; Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German Lutheran Pastor who spoke out against Nazism; Martin Luther King, a civil rights leader who fought against racial discrimination; Nelson Mandela, who fought against apartheid in South Africa and many, many more individuals too numerous to include in this writing. But courageous people also live among us, often without fanfare, and enjoy quiet lives as workers, husbands, wives, friends, acquaintances, neighbors and even children. How can we recognize these everyday heroes? They are individuals who stand up for what they believe in

COURAGE

even if their beliefs are unpopular; they follow a vision despite obstacles; they keep on keeping on even when there is fear of the unknown; they are willing to sacrifice to make others successful, and they can admit when they are wrong without adding an excuse or explanation for their behavior. Our everyday heroes have compassion for others, strong commitment that may require personal sacrifice, determination, perseverance, can show genuine emotion, and can take an unpopular stand for something they believe in; they have courage to forgive and move past mistakes, theirs or others, and their road to success is often accomplished in incremental steps. Acts of courage occur in everyday life—facing the fear of public speaking, expressing an opinion that is not popular within a group, speaking out about injustice, refusing to go along with the group just to be accepted, experiencing defeat but willing to try again, living with a serious disability or critical illness,

forgiving self or others for mistakes and choosing to accept them as learning experiences. Reinhold Niebuhr, author of the Serenity Prayer, encourages Believers to ask God to help them accept the things they cannot change, courage to change the things they can and to pray for wisdom to know the difference. It is not always easy to admit when one is wrong, to go against the grain or stand up for truth. Ernest Hemingway wrote that: “Courage is grace under pressure.” So, as you go about your everyday lives, be on the lookout for courageous people, those whose integrity compels them to say “no”, even when pressured to do otherwise, doing the right thing just because it is the right thing and voicing truths, even those that are unwelcome. 0008

Whether planning a family vacation or organizing summer activities for the children, summer camps can provide fun and exciting opportunities to discover something new. According to Wikipedia, 70 percent of the Canadian population will attend a summer camp this summer, and the options for different educational, sport and recreational activities increases yearly to accommodate this interest. Whether a “sleep away” style for children, day camp activities or family orientated weekends,

the opportunities to explore something new or simply get away from the hustle of everyday life are almost endless. For many, summer camp is an opportunity to expand horizons through outdoor activity. Wikipedia describes this as “outdoor education”, a trend that is increasingly popular for those looking for alternative learning styles for their children, or to improve their own selfawareness. Some typical aims of outdoor education are to:

and

social

Wikipedia further explains that “outdoor education spans the three domains of self, others, and the natural world. The relative emphasis of these three domains varies from one program to another. An outdoor education program can, for example, emphasize one (or more) of these aims to: •

teach outdoor survival skills

•

improve problem solving skills

•

reduce recidivism

•

enhance teamwork

•

develop leadership skills

•

understand natural environments

•

promote spirituality

Outdoor education in Canada is based around “hard” technical skills - often travel and camping skills, and the “soft” group skills and personal growth qualities, such as those taught at sleep away camps, or in Scouts and Girl Guides - are blended with, one might say, the “green” and “warm” skills of a complementary eco-adventure focus. Adventures are found whether one is partaking in environmental awareness or team-building workshops throughout Canada. The Canadian Camping Association describes summer camp as the “ideal environment for a child to learn, grow and have fun. At camp, children are safe, secure, healthy, active and happy. They develop friendships that last a lifetime. Guided and supported by caring leaders who are excellent role models, campers acquire hard skills to enjoy in a lifetime of leisure pursuits. Campers are encouraged to be co-operative, caring, tolerant and respectful – qualities which benefit them beyond camp. They also

learn to become more independent and self-confident, they develop leadership skills and acquire an appreciation and respect for nature.” For more information, visit their website at: ccamping.org/parents/the-benefitsof-camp. An excerpt from the research brief, Emotional Intelligence and Summer Camp by Stephen Fine, Ph.D., CCA Research Chair, (ccamping.org/wpcontent/uploads/2015/03/EmotionalIntelligence-and-Summer-Camp.pdf ) states that: “Apart from opportunities presented by the inherent social environment of camp life, what particular strategies does camp teach that can lead to higher levels of emotional intelligence? Ideal learning environments are ones that provides optimal challenges and emotional stimulation within a context of both independence and inter-dependence. This is precisely the learning environment that a summer camp provides. At camp, children are motivated by fun,

comradeship, interesting situations and dynamic activities. Additionally, camps now provides coaching and peer mentoring in the areas of antibullying, problem-solving, inclusion, global citizenship and environmental awareness. Camps are dedicated to creating emotionally intelligent young people. Kids who are better able to regulate their emotional states, sooth themselves when they are upset, better at focusing attention, relate well to others, have better friendships, and quite possibly do better in school situations that require academic performance.” Research aside, summer camps offer many opportunities for growth and the expansion of life skills. Children and adults alike can participate in educational and dramatic camps or attend skill building camps such as soccer and horseback riding activities. Summer camp is a wonderful excuse to kick back and avoid work, enjoying the hazy days of summer.

The session begins at 7:00pm; this is a great opportunity to sit with experienced musicians and learn tunes at a slower pace. We transition to an 'up to speed' session at 7:30. At 8:30 the circle welcomes individual tunes, songs, stories, poetry, jokes, step dance and much more! All are welcome, regardless of experience. Feel free to bring your traditional instrument or your voice and join in - or simply sit with the other bar patrons and enjoy the traditional setting. Spread the word! Bring your friends!
