EMC News - Norwood Two iconic anniversaries were married into a gala night like no other Norwood has celebrated. The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and the two-hundredth anniversary of the War of 1812 were commemorated in colourful, “spectacular” and sold-out fashion by the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 300 and the 40th Northumberland Chapter Norwood IODE complete with a 49th Regiment of Foot colour guard and historical displays of artifacts, coronation memorabilia including programs and medals, uniforms and other items uniting the two milestone events. With its panoply of Union Jacks, bunting and red, white and blue trimming and table accents it felt a lot like June 3, 1953. “The room looked spectacular,” gala co-chair Rob Gordon said. “It’s just the way I had envisaged it,” Gordon told the Northwest EMC, talking about the decorations, the Please see “1812” on page 3

By Sue Dickens

EMC News - Campbellford - The Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) has dismissed an appeal that essentially clears the way for a 24-unit affordable housing project slated for Campbellford to move forward. At issue were two zoning bylaws affecting property for the Valley Green Homes Housing Project operated by Bloor Park Village Inc. In a statement prepared for the media following the OMB decision, the ten appellants and other residents of the King, First, Centre, Burnbrae neighbourhood said they are disappointed the OMB has decided to

support the re-zoning of the proposed development “as currently proposed.” The statement was prepared by Alan Appleby, (who spoke on their behalf at the hearing) after spending time getting their input in to meet this paper’s deadline. Jim Peters, director of planning for the Municipality of Trent Hills, was among those who testified at the OMB hearing. “My immediate reaction is that the board recognized the planning arguments that were put forward in terms of the policy review we did with growth plan policy, provincial policy

statement and official plan,” he told EMC. “The density was supported and the number of units supported when I see this the [OMB] board obviously put stock in the fact that the subdivision plan had previously been approved showing this number of lots in that area,” he added, noting the original plan of subdivision approved in 2006 did have 24 lots proposed. The appellants said the high density of the project is something they took exception to, not the fact that it was affordable housing. “I know that the appellants had concerns. We’ve

tried to take those into consideration. We’ve tried to work with it as well as work with the fact that the policies support this, they support the densities,” said Peters. He also talked about the issue of the “watercourse” which the appellants said needed special protection. “I think in the decision [by the OMB] it’s clear that the water course or drainage course or whatever you want to call it was adequately addressed by the [Lower Trent] conservation authority,” said Peters, noting that, “Although it’s not to do with the decision the conservation authority is

still in discussions with the engineer in how to deal with the slopes at the rear of those units.” A deadline of September 30 for the grant to become a reality meant everything about this case had to be dealt with in a more condensed timeframe. “Normally before anything went ahead we try to have every question answered and show everyone how we dealt with it. In this case we’ve sort of been dealing with multiple things and at the same time because we’re working towards the deadline,” Peters told EMC. Please see “Residents” on page 5

Residents petition for a lower speed limit

R0011643993

By Sue Dickens

EMC News - Trent Hills A request by residents of the 7th Line East, Seymour Township, to lower the posted speed limit from 80 to 60 kilometres an hour is being examined by Trent Hills council. A petition signed by 20 residents to amend the speed limit was presented at a recent council meeting. Daryl McColl who lives on the 7th Line appeared before council after being given permission by council to present his comments, even though he had not been listed as a delegation. Citing a number of accidents that have occurred on

not only the 7th Line but also the 6th and 8th Lines, McColl talked about the increased traffic on those roads. “Those roads I believe have all become more heavily travelled in the last year … I’ve lived on the 6th line moving to the 7th line in 2006 … I believe the road has deteriorated from what it used to be from heavy truck use, cement trucks, farm machinery etc.,” he said. An OPP officer for 21 years, he made reference to the Highway Traffic Act (HTA) regulations. “It is my belief that the 7th Line can be classified as a built up area as defined under the HTA and therefore a reduced speed limit does apply,” he said, noting he is not asking council for money to improve the roads. “My taxes are high enough; I don’t want them any higher. I don’t want them to improve my road, I want them to reduce the speed limit,” he explained. Councillor Bill Thompson said, “It’s not a road for people to be walking on because of the hills. I think in my own mind I would have a hard time supporting a reduced speed limit this far out of town.” In response McColl said, “There’s a number of pedestrians and I feel we have the right to use the road as pedestrians.” He commented that his wife walks on the road daily and, “She finds it difficult to get a licence plate of a vehicle

that passes as she pushes my eight-month-old into the ditch to avoid traffic.” “I can say from my experience as a police officer working in that area for some time that 80 kilometres per hour being the norm, if a person travels at 80 kilometres per hour it’s just simply too fast for reaction time and I’m making this application only to look into safety for all the residents of the community,” he added. Mayor Hector Macmillan commented, “It was never the intent to turn agricultural areas into urban centres but the people who move into these homes or these lots they must realize there are no sidewalks there, no street lights there, but the longer they are there the more they are demanding those services. After the discussion Councillor Bob Crate put forward a motion that staff look at the situation and prepare a report which would reflect things such as usage of the road, condition of the road and so on. CAO Mike Rutter pointed out, “If we do change the default speed limit where we think it is then there’s substantial signage issues and a lot of work ahead for us looking to prepare for that.” He added that when dealing with these types of requests in the past staff has put together a report that looks at the number of incidents, the design of the road and “quite often we consult police services as well.”

new development will decrease their property values. They see a new subdivision as fundamentally changing the rural feel of their neighbourhood and community.” Appleby expressed concern in the media statement, with the process at the municipal level and indicated that the residents do not view the proposal as good planning for an area described as a charming valley. Appleby pointed out that, “The OMB ruled that the appellants did prove that Trent Hills By-law 2012-57, which rezoned a portion of the developer’s land for the 24 townhouses, was invalid as passed by council. “However, instead of sending the bylaw back to the municipality for a further process of public hearing and review, the OMB unilaterally [as they are allowed to do] amended the bylaw to directly correct some of the problems noted in the appeals.” The OMB also recognized the appellant’s objections that relate to density, potential for impact to an existing watercourse at the rear of the development and the proposed setback from the townhouses, traffic concerns, decreased property values, and potential for change to

Northumberland County chose the Bloor Park Village proposal over other submissions for funding through Ontario’s Investment in Affordable Housing program with a deadline in place. An extension brought it up to September 30. Mark Darroch, Director, Community and Social Services, Northumberland County reacted to the OMB decision: “We’re very pleased with it and now we can move forward and start to build and create 24 brand new wonderful units for families and that’s our focus.” Responding to the OMB decision Peters noted that, “It talks about the concerns and how they were expressed but in the end was satisfied that all the planning issues were resolved, that this is good planning and that the zoning bylaw we were trying to address this type of development.” The emotional appeal made by the appellants was part of the process but the findings were based on facts concerning site location and background, applicable zoning and prior approvals, recognizing the impact of the rezoning from R1 to R3.

out for me in their vendetta with the Stirling-Rawdon Police Service, in particular Chief Brian Foley. I think Mr. Way and Mr. Stewart should get together and maybe bang their heads together and wake up. Mr. Way, stop whining about the OCPC decision,

drive to Toronto and complain to them, reference the hearing and the outcome. Mr. Stewart, as to your ranting about Lin Clarke’s letter, Lin had it right, “When does the hanging take place?” Both of you take a step back and say, “Do I know

what I’m talking about?” I wonder if you both do. Mr. Way and Mr. Stewart, let the Police Service, in particular the chief, do their job, which is 24/7 not like most people’s hours of work. Am I biased? Sure I am. I was a police officer for 30 years, 15 in Stirling. By the

way I had a Grade 12 education when I joined in Tweed in 1974. Is that good enough for the whiners? You don’t speak on my behalf and you never will. You’re a minority and always will be. Tom Andrews, Stirling

Dear Editor, Hello, and thank-you for profiling another local Northumberland food producer. I can appreciate that Hugh Campbell thinks his is, “the only commercial beekeeping operation in Northumberland County.” Perhaps, before publishing such a self-aggrandizing statement, EMC could have simply checked the Ontario Beekeepers As-

sociation web site, <www. ontariobee.com> and the Canadian Honey Council, <www.honeycouncil.ca/ index.php>, to find many commercial beekeeping operations in Northumberland other than Mr. Campbell’s, and the myriad regulations controlling all of their productions. I shall give you a few local examples: Busy Bee Apiaries in Cobourg (the Carr family have been pro-

ducing honey for over 50 years!); St Ambrose Honey in Warkworth; Dancing Bee in Canton; and Jones Honey in Castleton. Please don’t short shrift all the many other wonderful honey producers within Northumberland. Under the Bees Act, R.S.O. 1990, Chapter B.6.6 states. “No Person shall be a beekeeper in Ontario without a certificate of registration issued by the Provincial

Apiarist.” (OMAFRA). The CFIA has stringent regulations governing honey producers and their products. Beware of honey labelled as a blend of Canadian and another source country. It is not a truly Canadian honey. It is far sweeter than you think to live in Northumberland! Bev Dahmer, one of many cattle producers in Northumberland, Grafton

There is more than one honey producer in Northumberland County

Outdated hunting laws

Dear Editor, What day and age are we living in with these outdated hunting laws. If I was to drive above the speed limit the police would come down on me like a ton of bricks, but if I want to fire a high powered rifle near someone’s house that’s fine? Using a weapon that can easily kill within a mile and the person possibly intoxicated at the same time! Last year I witnessed a person almost causing a traffic accident just because he saw a “rack.” And why should I have to wear bright orange to walk down the road or through my own property just in case some low-life is trespassing or trigger happy. Being one of the few civilized people around, I love to see wildlife, but, unfortunately, this beautiful land is becoming a barren waste land. I used to have deer walk through my property, but thanks to rednecks pushing the boundaries and trespassing there are no longer any deer to see. If these Neanderthals want to kill and eat innocent animals that are lyme disease carriers, then do it away from residential areas. And don’t make me laugh with the deer hit excuse BS; idiot drivers crash every day on their own. F. Bloggs, Tweed

No more coups in Turkey Goodbye, Sam EMC Editorial - In my trade you get used to it after a while, but the first time you wake up to find a military coup has happened overnight where you live is quite alarming. That was in Turkey back in 1971, when the army seized of the country Gwynne Dyer control after months of political turmoil. It was not as bad as the 1960 coup, when the military authorities tried and hanged the prime minister, but it was bad enough. There were two more coups in Turkey: in 1980, when half a million were arrested, tens of thousands were tortured, and fifty were executed, and 1997, a “post-modern” coup in which the army simply ordered the prime minister to resign. But there will be no more coups in Turkey: the army has finally been forced to bow to a democratically elected government. On September 21 a Turkish court sentenced 330 people, almost all military officers, to prison for their involvement in a coup plot in 2003. They included the former heads of the army, navy and air force, who received sentences of 20 years each, and six other generals. Thirty-four other officers were acquitted. Five years ago, nobody in Turkey could have imagined such a thing. The military were above the law, with the sacred mission (at least in their own minds) of defending the secular state from being undermined by people who mixed religion with politics. Making coups against governments that trespassed on that forbidden ground was just part of their job. This was the duty that the 330 officers thought they were performing in 2003, according to the indictments against them. The Justice and Development Party (AKP), a moderate Islamic party espousing conservative social values, had come to power after the 2002 election: the voters had got it wrong again, and their mistake had to be corrected. With public opinion abroad and at home increasingly hostile to military coups, a better pretext was needed than in the old days. So the plot, “Operation Sledgehammer,” involved bomb attacks on two major mosques in Istanbul, a Turkish fighter shot down by the Greeks, and an attack on a military museum by Islamic militants. The real attackers, in every case heavily disguised, would actually be the military themselves. The accused 330 claimed that “Operation Sledgehammer” was all just a scenario for a military exercise, and the documents supporting the accusations (probably leaked by junior officers opposed to a coup) have never been properly attributed. But given the army’s track record of four coups in fifty years

and its deeply rooted hostility to Islamic parties, the charges were entirely plausible, and in the end the court believed them. The army has no choice but to accept the court’s judgement. The AK party has been re-elected twice with increasing majorities, the party’s pious leaders have not tried to shove their values down everybody else’s throats, and the economy has flourished. A new constitution, ratified in a referendum in 2010, has finally made elected civilian governments superior to the army. It even removed the legal immunity that those who carried out the bloody 1980 coup wrote into the previous constitution to protect themselves. As a result, the leaders of that coup, retired generals Kenan Evren and Tahsin Sahinkaya, have also been brought to trial. And about time, too. Even now, many secular-minded people in Turkey do not trust the motives of an Islamic party in government. They still think that the army is there to protect them from the dark oppression of the religious fanatics, and that any attempt to curb its power is a conspiracy against the whole principle of the secular, neutral state. But the Turkish secular state has never been neutral. From the time when Mustafa Kemal Ataturk and his companions, all military officers, rescued Turkey from the wreckage of the Ottoman Empire after World War I, the state was at war with religion. Ataturk began by abolishing the religious schools, the Sultanate, and the Caliphate (religious authority over all Muslims) that Ottoman sultans had traditionally claimed. He banned forms of headgear, like the fez and the turban, that had religious connotations. He replaced Islamic law with Western legal codes, and declared the equal status of women and men (including votes for women). It was understandable, because Ataturk had always argued that Turkey must Westernise its institutions and write off the non-Turkish parts of the empire if it wanted to survive in a world dominated by industrialised Western empires. But that was 75 years ago. Today’s Turkey is modern, powerful, and prosperous, and there is no external threat. It’s high time for the Turkish army to stop waging a cold war against the part of the population who are still devoutly religious. They are entitled to the full rights of citizenship too, although they are not entitled to force their beliefs and values on everybody else. That was the significance of AK’s victories in the past three elections, and of the trials that have finally brought the army under control. The head of the Turkish armed forces and all three service chiefs resigned in July in protest against the trials of military personnel, but President Abdullah Gul promptly appointed a new head of the armed forces—who tamely accepted the post. It’s over.

Letter to the editor

Obama and Trudeau birds of a feather

Dear Editor, Socialist economics and communist-style central planning didn’t work in the Soviet Union and many other European countries. But the United States ignores history and the odds as they decide giving another four years of Obama incompetence. The coming American election looks like a mirror image of the late 1960s in Canada. That’s when Canadian voters elected a Marxist politician that the useful idiots in the media anointed because he had “charisma” to be PM. Forget his politics Pierre Trudeau idolized Fidel Castro and his Communist

regime in Cuba, but don’t worry because our brilliant experts of the day claimed he looked cool and made wonderful sound bites for the broadcast media. After Trudeau disappeared from the scene, Canada was left with a constitution minus property rights, a divided country, high unemployment, excessive debt and a downgraded financial status. It has taken the last 40 years to reasonably recover from the Trudeaumania madness and even so we have far fewer freedoms today than before the PET era. It may take the Americans just as long to recover from the Obama hangover in his bid to transform that country from a prosperous free-enterprise, capitalist society into another uninspired socialist state. If Americans want to solve their economic dilemma and regain control of their own foreign policy destiny, which happens to be in the interests of Canada, there is only one solution. Get rid of the amateur in charge of the White House. Let’s finally get it right by substituting competence and character over charisma. Rolly Ethier, Campbellford

By Terry Bush

EMC Editorial - Many of us were saddened to hear about the passing of Sam Sniderman on Sunday. If you don’t know who Sam was, you’ve obviously never taken a stroll on Yonge Street in downtown Toronto. Sam was and always will be “the” record man. The last remaining store in the Quinte Mall doesn’t quite do the original justice. The name may be the same but the atmosphere certainly isn’t. Sam’s in downtown Toronto was only about the music, a Mecca of sorts for anyone who enjoyed putting a record on a turntable. It was a place where Canadian artists always had a home and a man who cared about them. Their photos adorned the walls, the low budget frames and messages to Sam blending in with the decor or lack thereof. Sam championed their music and did his part to ensure Canadian content was present on Canadian radio stations. Cleanliness was never a top priority at Sam’s. The old place always had dirty, creaky floors, a funny smell at times, graffiti on the walls, more than a few cobwebs and the craziest looking sales people you’d find anywhere. The hairstyles changed with the music, long in the seventies, punked out in the early eighties, poofed out by the end of that decade and then, well I really couldn’t tell you about the nineties because by then, the thrill had gone and progress reared its ugly head with big name chains from the U.S. setting up shop in new and glitzy stores. Music and the Internet joined hands. LPs were out, CDs were in and eventually CDs weren’t in either. I spent almost a decade collecting albums and Sam’s was one of the few places that always had whatever obscure piece of vinyl you hoped to find. If they didn’t have it, they could get it. Their Boxing Day sales were legendary. We’d all get up early and pile into a vehicle, usually mine, and head off to the Big Smoke to stand in line for a half hour or so before sharpening our elbows and making our way through the crowd. It was always wall-to-wall people with barely enough room to turn around. Then with a dozen or so half-price LPs in hand, we’d reunite on the sidewalk to brag about how much money we’d saved. And save we did. I can remember one trip when I bought 17 new records and saved myself at least $50 which was quite a big deal in 1976. Hell, I was making money by spending money I figured considering the average record album cost around $6.50 back then. We’d grab a falafel or two, make the obligatory pilgrimage to a couple of head shops, amazing places when you came from rural Ontario, buy a couple of black lights to shine on our newly purchased psychedelic posters and head home. A smile still crosses my face every time I get a whiff of incense for some reason. With a “see you in a couple of days,” we’d all go our separate ways and hunker down with the headphones emerging only when each album had been played at least three times so we could give a well-researched critique when we got together again. “Well, the only good song on that piece of crap was the song on the radio,” was a common refrain. It never mattered because after sorting through a dozen albums and only finding a couple of duds, we were more than happy to head on back to TO to have another go. And Sam would always be there waiting for us. He looked like an old man to us even back then. But he was almost impossible to stump. Iggy and the Stooges “Raw Power”? Here you go. Todd Rungren’s “A wizard, a true star”? End of the aisle on sale this week. That’s the one album I sold I really wish I still had, it was just so freaky. Well, maybe there were a few more LPs I wish I still owned and in hindsight whittling down a collection of 500 albums down to 340 maybe wasn’t such a good idea. It’s hard to explain a fascination with vinyl but there’s just something about holding that big record sleeve and reading the lyric sheets and in cases like the Beatles Magical Mystery Tour looking at the booklet that comes with the album. No squinting required. I almost feel sorry that today’s generation has missed out on that now that smaller is better whether it be a computer, phone or MP3 player. A jewel case with a couple of photos doesn’t really hold a candle to a double album. And a download from the Internet only gives you a song or an album but none of the fun stuff that goes with it. My age is no doubt showing here. But sometimes even members of the younger generation can appreciate what they’re missing out on. My two nieces from Edmonton came on a visit a decade ago and when I introduced them to my collection, they fell in love. As they pored through my LPs, I found out that my niece Jesse was a collector of Fleetwood Mac vinyl. When I showed her Mac albums before Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham came on board, she was enthralled. When I handed her a couple of albums done by Fleetwood Mac alumni, no longer with the band and told her she could keep them, I became her favourite uncle at least for that day. Not to leave niece Erin empty-handed, I taped a bunch of my favourite albums explaining all the while that grunge music wasn’t anything new just part of the cycle. I hooked her on old Black Sabbath from the days when Ozzie was still intelligible. I bonded with my two nieces over those milk crates full of plastic and cardboard and in the back of my mind thanked Sam the Record Man for helping me accumulate all those gems. They’ve moved from place to place and resided in four different locations now but I’ll never throw them out even if I don’t ever listen to many of them again. They’re part of what makes me who I am and Sam the Record Man played his part in my upbringing whether he knows it or not. Thanks, Sam. Northwest EMC - Thursday, September 27, 2012

Culture Days with a Havelock twist By Bill Freeman

EMC Events - Havelock The national Culture Days movement will touch down in Havelock for the second year in a row. Culture Days is “designed to create greater public participation in the arts and cultural life of communities.” Havelock’s two-day free event is a deliberately “lowkey” celebration that kicks off with a community dance

at the town hall Friday evening and continues Saturday with an eclectic array of entertainers on stage at the town hall including an Elvis tribute artist. Last year there were two Culture Days gatherings in Havelock, one at the town hall and another at Knox Presbyterian Church which defied monsoon-like weather to serve up an entertaining and free menu for all

Jeff Nesbitt of the TEACH Centre, with the help of some local volunteers, including members of the H Town Youth Group, has been organizing the village’s Culture Days event. Internet radio station CKLR has been a big booster of the project and is supplying microphones for the performers. There will also be a barbeque at the town hall. “We have a long list of entertainment, some local and some from out of town. And it’s all free,” says Higgins. Nesbitt says there are ten professional bands lined up; he’s organizing things so there are open microphone spots between acts for anyone who wants to step on stage. “We’re still trying to get local talent,” he says. The community dance runs from 7 to 11 p.m. and is open to everyone and Nesbitt says parents can leave their children at the TEACH Centre where there will be a supervised movie night complete with popcorn. “Parents can leave their children there and enjoy the dance.” Nesbitt says people are excited about the Elvis tribute artist closing the show. “We have two or three people a day coming into

OPEN SATURDAY

Last hurrah for Hastings Village Market “You never know what Mother Nature will bring you. You’re never going to get into a rut; you’re always dealing with the weather no matter what it’s doing.” Higgs said there were plenty of baked goods at the market this year and is finishing up with a good variety of root vegetables. “You go right through the season from asparagus and rhubarb right through to pumpkins.” Higgs enjoys the genial atmosphere farmers’ mar-

kets foster and says it was nice to see so many boaters docked at the Hastings Village Marina walking over to browse; there are also regular customers from in town and surrounding cottages. “They’re very pleased to find fresh produce,” she says. “Fresh takes on a new meaning. People are really looking to buy local; the word is out and they are really looking for it.” Higgs says market-goers quickly discover that “you don’t have to pay a whole lot

more to get fresh local food. “A village market should be a gathering place and it tends to be,” she added. “You can meet with the farmer who grows the food

or neighbours you don’t see often. It’s a good meeting place.” “We lucked out except for the very hot days,” Van Will adds.

struggled but still managed to bring all their produce to the market.” Higgs says the raspberries suffered the most but that blueberries were a “bumper crop.” Higgs says the market had blueberries from July 1 until Labour Day. “The raspberries were just starting to grow when it got very hot,” she says. This season’s strawberries were plump she suspects because they received a lot of rain early on.

The popular downtown summer destination wraps up its 2012 season this Saturday and visitors will have a chance to win a gift basket that will contain donations from all market vendors. “It’s been a really good summer,” market organizer Theo Van Will told the Northwest EMC on the first day of fall. “It has been one of the better years and we’ve had a good turnout of vendors and the produce did very well for the summer months,” said Van Will, who sells his wood work as well as garden produce. “This year has been good,” gardener and jam and jelly-maker Joyce Higgs agreed. “We’ve had a lot of vegetables and freshpicked fruit and that’s really brought a lot of people to the market. One week we were running out of space in the parking lot.” There were some Saturdays where the stifling heat deterred some regular market visitors. But surprisingly, Higgs says the produce “didn’t suffer for it. “There was a lot of good caring for the fruit and vegetables,” she said. “All the farmers and the gardeners

EMC News - Norwood The Community Friends of Norwood District High School want a seat or at least a voice on a committee the public school board will establish to investigate educational options in rural communities and how school programming can be kept “viable.” The so-called “system committee” was discussed at the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board’s May 24 meeting as part of the chair’s committee report that looked at three “capital plan property areas” including Norwood and Campbellford.

The KPR committee and the superintendents responsible for those priority areas will examine things like creative programing for rural communities, normal boundaries for each rural school to find out where students should be coming from and where they are going if they’re not attending their home school. “Superintendents will be asked to research small schools to see how they are operating and how they are keeping programs viable,” the report says. The board will review enrollment at NDHS and

CDHS between 2012 and 2014 for a possible consolidation and accommodation review while also setting up its committee to look at rural school options. “Nowhere in this report are they saying closing; it’s ‘let’s look at the options,’” Community Friends chair and former school trustee Verna Shackleton said. “A lot of that [the KPR committee] feeds right into what we’re talking about, looking at ways we can work together,” Shackleton said. One of the things the Community Friends must do, she says, is lobby the board to make sure the committee is not just made up of board personnel. “If they have a committee looking at options for rural schools we want to heard,” Shackleton said. “They’re kind of in monitoring mode and looking at what the options are.” “We should try to find out if they would consider input at least from the community,” said Shackleton. “We have to write the board to tell [them] that the Norwood committee does exist and that we’re following their plans and we know they’re trying to establish a committee and we suggest they include some [community]said representation,” Andy Sharpe, deputy-may-

or of Havelock-BelmontMethuen. If they aren’t granted a spot on the committee they should be allowed to make presentations to it, Shackleton said. “We might as well take some of our ideas forward.” “Now’s the time to speak up,” Sharpe agreed. “Small communities, small everything is under siege,” Asphodel-Norwood Mayor Doug Pearcy said. “I don’t think they’re going to rush into it,” Shackleton said suggesting that the board’s focus will be the two public high schools in Cobourg. The Community Friends have been meeting since March to discuss ways to enhance enrollment at NDHS through innovative programming, partnerships and other initiatives. One idea suggested by Sharpe and Pearcy is developing a partnership with the school to encourage interest in careers in the municipal field. “There’s a great lack of qualified municipal people. We hear that all the time,” Sharpe said. “Is there something [that could be done] on the academic side of things [and] totally create something new that hasn’t been done in Ontario?”

Public should share ideas on parks, recreation says councillor court. It would be interesting to hear people’s ideas on the tennis court.” CAO Linda Reed reminded council that they have a “focused” initiative on the Concession Street tennis court that includes a formal application for federal funding and has suggested the public be invited to comment on that project. Reed said council could, if it wished, broaden public participation to include input on wider recreational and parksrelated issues. “We’re almost talking about two different things,” she said. “We already have two great parks [and] most people in our community are satisfied with our parks with the exception of [Concession Street] where there used to be a skate park and tennis court,” Larry Ellis said. “I would like to see the focus switched to the Mathison property.” Reed told Ellis staff is developing a terms of reference for a community committee to focus on the Mathison property north of the village. “There’s an outstanding direction [from council] we’re actively working on.” Ellis thinks “there are real possibilities” with the dome.

“It’s something that will be created here and will be used by lot of people, not just those in the township,” he said. Ellis agrees there should be one focus on the tennis court and other options and ideas can be part of a broader discussion. Martin echoed that thought. “I’m not sure how we do it, [it’s] almost like a mini strategic plan on the parks and the offshoots of where we’re going. If people are happy with what we have so be it.” But Martin says he hears from young families in the community that “we have what we have to have but we don’t have anything special. We’ve got families taking their kids to Madoc and Campbellford for the skate parks and splashpads. “I’m not saying we need these things or that we can do these things but if there’s interest out there I would like to hear from [people],” he said. “I know the money’s not there but there might be some ideas that come out of these meetings that help us get to where we need to be … We’re looking for ideas; I’m quick to say ‘How are you going to pay for it?’”

EMC News - Havelock With the municipality taking a serious look at the future of the Concession Street tennis court, the time is right for the public to share their thoughts about recreationrelated ideas, Councillor Jim Martin says. “This is the time of year to spark some talk and see what people want or what people are looking for and make sure we’re going in the right direction,” Martin told council, noting that Gareth Wilson’s recreation dome proposal is an example of a ratepayer coming forward with ideas. Martin wonders if public discussion on the future of the tennis court could be broadened to include other recreational opportunities or remain separate discussion items. “I’ve had comments about a splash pad, the dome; I’ve had comments that we have so many parks in this town, why not have one big one. I just wonder, a tennis court would work inside a dome. Are we wasting money to do something else and [not] go in a different direction,” Martin asked. “I’m just throwing it out there [but] I don’t want to cloud the issue of the tennis

to the worthy recipients. This year there will be a stand-alone ceremony and celebration. “We’re looking to do a bit of a change-up on that this year,” says Grattan. “It’s going to be a special meeting of council off site. We want to change it up a bit so they’re not coming to an actual council meeting where business is being conducted. “It will be a night just about community volunteers,” he says. Municipal staff is in the process of putting together packages that will allow local residents to nominate deserving candidates living within the community. The nomination forms will be ready in October, says Grattan. “We’re right in the middle of brainstorming ideas right now.”

CDHS students plant trees in Hastings EMC News - Hastings Students from the environmental club at Campbellford District High School joined staff from Lower Trent Conservation and community volunteers to plant approximately 175 native shrubs and wildflowers along the Trent River shoreline Tuesday morning at Hastings Village Marina. The planting is part of a shoreline naturalization project initiated by the Hastings Revitalization Association in conjunction with the Municipality of Trent Hills which will provide a colourful shoreline buffer, increase wildlife habitat and protect the shoreline from erosion. Funding for the project has been provided by Agrium as part of its Caring for Our Watersheds environmental contest. Caring for Our Watersheds was initiated by Agrium, a major retail supplier of agricultural products and services in North and South America, to encourage youth to not only think of ways to solve local environmental issues but also to implement their ideas. The importance of planting native plants was the winning idea of two Campbellford District High School students from last year’s competition.

Danish farmers tour sugar bush on whirlwind tour open through March and April. “If we have a good year we should get one litre of finished product for every one of these trees,” he said, some of which are as much as 150 years old. “I think it’s just wonderful for visitors from other countries to visit the

Sandy Flat Sugar Bush to learn how we make this wonderful product,” Alice told EMC. “These ribbons you see here, we have won the world championship four times for our maple syrup. It was judged in Toronto,” she added, pointing to a wall in the pancake house

where the red ribbons were on display. “I always say maple syrup makes any dish more delicious,” she concluded with a big smile, the consummate hostess.

After sampling maple cookies made by Alice Potter who has operated the sugar bush with her husband George for the past 35 years, the group toured the evaporator house. “We have a wood-fired evaporator and it is quite efficient,” said George, as he talked about the sugar bush that encompasses about 60 acres of his 172acre farm. “We have 50 kilometres of line through the trees,” he said, explaining that “22 to 25 days is a good season.” “We didn’t get that last year; the weather turned warm,” he added.

This was his 36th study tour for farmers and managers in the Danish co-operative sector with representatives from farm supply and dairy co-ops and co-op slaughterhouses. “I organize the tours in co-operation with LandbrugsAvisen, the leading Danish ag paper,” he explained.

NDHS celebrates 25 years of Terry Fox spirit By Bill Freeman EMC News - Norwood -

The spirit of Terry Fox beats as strongly today at Norwood District High School as it did 25 years ago when students made their first celebratory march around Nichols Oval in Peterborough. “They relate to Terry,” NDHS teacher Marsha Hanak told the Northwest EMC at the school’s Terry Fox kickoff assembly which featured a talk by acclaimed artist and writer Jan Thornhill who shared her cancer

story with students. NDHS students will join their peers in Peterborough October 10 running and walking down the Rotary Trail before assembling at the Nichols Oval hill for a massive show of high school spirit. It crosses generations, says Hanak. “I have students whose parents did this. It’s a natural thing to fund raise for Terry Fox,” she said. “It’s a legacy that carries on. I think all the students have been affected

dyed cells looked. In reality, the cancer was a deadly threat which, at the very minimum, could lead to the loss of her arm. “I find that when anything scares me if I learn about them I’m less frightened.” She underwent 25 days of chemotherapy to shrink the cell, then surgery to remove the tumour. Anti-vomiting drugs developed with research dollars kept her from throwing up. “Without that I would

have been puking my brains out. I really appreciate it.” So did her chemotherapy nurses, she added with a laugh. Even with that chemo is grindingly hard to handle. Her hair fell out as the drugs killed off cells, her skin wrinkled. “I looked as hideous as hell.” The remarkable work of two surgeons saved the arm, an impossibility had she been diagnosed when Terry Fox

was stricken. “I would have lost my arm. No discussion,” Thornhill said. When Terry was diagnosed with osteosarcoma the mortality rate was 80 per cent, now, thanks to research and medical breakthroughs 80 per cent survive. “I’m one of them,” Thornhill said. “Thank you because you are part of the reason I have an arm. It’s not so perfect [and] a little bit ugly but thank you so much.”

Fun at learn to skate program By Bill Freeman

EMC Lifestyles - Norwood - The “soft launch” of the Norwood District Skating Club’s learn to skate program was a successful blast-off. The CanSkate program is for beginners of all ages and is run in a group format with instruction led by Skate Canada coaches and their specially trained program assistants. “This year the focus is that skaters learn best when they are active, engaged, moving, challenged, motivated and having fun,” says coach Bernadette Vanderhorst. Vanderhorst says the learn to skate program uses strategies such as circuits, the “fast track,” warm-ups and warmdowns and better skill progression. There is also the “Fun Zone” station with props, colourful teaching aids that will “enhance the on ice learning environment. “The enthusiasm, motivation and the fun that program assistants give to the young skaters is a fantastic asset to the program,” says Vanderhorst. She and coaches Leanne

Decker and Jessica Pritchard are “looking forward to implementing these stimulating changes and providing skaters and families with a safe, welcoming experience in the sport of skating.” This is the skating club’s 44th season and it has evolved and adapted to changes in the sport and how it is developed in Canada. There are still openings in all divisions including the learn to skate program. The CanSkate Junior stage 1 program runs Monday from 5:50 p.m. to 6:20 p.m. and Saturday from 8:10 a.m. to 8:40 a.m. The CanSkate stage 2-3 program runs Monday from 5:40 p.m. to 6:20 p.m. and Sat-

urday from 8 a.m. to 8:50 a.m. For skaters who have achieved the CanSkate badges there are intermediate and senior sessions on Wednesday (4:20 p.m. to 5:50 p.m.) and Friday (3:45 p.m. to 5:20 p.m.); seniors also skate Monday from 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. The club’s adult skating session in Wednesdays from 6:50 p.m. to 7:50 p.m.; there is also an introduction to Synchro for intermediate and senior level skaters every Wednesday from 4 p.m. to 4:20 p.m. For more information on registration contact Adrianne Towns at 705-653-0858, Jill Cassibo at 705-639-5950 or Bernadette Vanderhorst at 705-639-5777.

by cancer in some way or another in their families. Over the 25 years NDHS has raised over $116,000 and Hanak says they’ve set a “definitely obtainable” goal of $3,500. She called the Nichols Oval festival a “remarkable event. “There’s so much spirit that day. We’re small in numbers but every year on the hill at Nichols we’re well-represented. It’s so much fun.” Hanak was thrilled to welcome Thornhill, a Havelock resident, to the school. “She is so talented and has a really strong personal message to share with the students.” For the longest time Thornhill thought the swelling on her forearm was a work-related injury and a CT scan was inconclusive. “Eventually I couldn’t draw the way I once could; it hurt too much,” the artist, famous for her detailed work, told students. Thornhill started to do computer-assisted illustrations completing two books this way and finally, after a trip to the Arctic and Yukon, was booked in for an MRI. “I was not allowed to move a muscle [and] it was so loud, ridiculously loud. You don’t know what noise is coming next. The amazing thing is, they can see the inside of your body.” The machine provided a detailed image of a crosssection of her forearm which revealed a tumour, which turned out to be a synovial sarcoma. Thornhill’s artistic sensibility noted how “pretty” the microscopic image of the

Seymour West WI celebrates 100th anniversary celebration. Her greeting was followed by the Mary Stewart Collect, a prayer written by Mary Stewart in 1904 that is used at opening or closing ceremonies of women’s clubs to instill a sense of unity among women working together with wide interests and important goals. Angelica Ottewell, a classically trained singer and harpist, performed, entertaining with her storytelling and music. Marilyn McMillan played the piano and her daughter-in-law Pauline McMillan sang. Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan brought greetings from the municipality. One of the Seymour West WI members, Grace Wynn, is curator of the Tweedsmuir

Community History Book. It contains information about the local branch and community events. She put together a history for the celebration, noting that the Seymour West branch was organized on July 6, 1912, by Mrs. Charles Macoun (president) at the home of Mrs. Charles Longmuir, (secretary). There were eight charter members. The WI meetings were held in private homes that members travelled to often by horse and buggy or cutter. “Meetings consisted of timely topics such as domestic information (bread making, canning and pickling, raising fowl and gardens) family health, community activities, current events (white slave

traffic) and recreation (how to spend a winter’s evening),” wrote Wynn, noting that the early minute books were destroyed in a house fire and so information of the first 30 years remains sketchy. The WI meetings were and still are an opportunity for rural women to meet others, learn and socialize. Seymour West WI has been instrumental in initiating music and public health programs in rural schools and has supported local, provincial and overseas projects such as flood and fire relief. “Seymour West WI, although smaller in number still participates and promotes the concept of Home and Country as did our original founding members 100 years ago,” said Wynn.

Beginning the celebration with a greeting, Hay said, “Women teach us how to find spiritual fulfillment, creative expression and deep satisfaction in life. For 100 years Seymour West WI has helped us do that. “We don’t need experts to tell us how to live won-

derful lives. We need only look to other women … women who overcome seemingly impossible disabilities … women who take their dreams into uncharted territory … women who rise to incredible heights of achievement and success,” said Hay, in an inspirational start to the

EMC Lifestyles - Campbellford - “There aren’t very many institutes that get to celebrate 100 years,” said Marion Hay, long-time president of the Seymour West Women’s Institute (WI). She and about 50 WI members, from the local and neighbouring branches, gathered recently for a celebration at their hall, the former oneroom schoolhouse, SS #4, on County Road 30, just outside Campbellford. “We have about 15 members in the Seymour West WI and there are lots of guests coming from WI groups in Seymour East, Castleton, Codrington, York Road and Rylstone,” she explained. A celebration cake made for the occasion sat on a table nearby while Hay welcomed WI members at the front door as they arrived. She was joined by the branch vice-president Shirley Little, a member for 35 years. “The Seymour West WI is a gathering of women who get along well together, who always have good times, always have a laugh and a cheerful spirit. It really gives you a lift,” Little told EMC. “My husband went to school here and so did my children,” she added. When the school closed in 1967 the WI bought the building.

I’m happy to help with such a great cause,” he quietly stated. Walsh invested over 225 hours into the construction of the guitar; Walsh didn’t even start until he hand picked the piece of wood for the body of the guitar. Its value was estimated at $14,000 prior to Wilcox signing it. Corey’s mother Cindy said that when the guitar was shown to her, she became very emotional. “I burst into tears. To think that someone that did not even know Corey was willing

to make something so magnificent in his honour was just plain amazing,” she said. The guitar will also be played by the Tragically Hip later this week in Toronto and presented formally in October to the winner. Walsh has built a nine-

EMC Entertainment - Belleville Canadian rock ’n’ roll legend David Wilcox endorsed a guitar created to honour the memory of a late Belleville teen. The custom made guitar was hand crafted by artisan Brian Walsh, who studied under Master Luthier Seppo Valjakka of Frankenstein Guitar Works of Canada. He created the guitar after hearing the tragic tale of Corey Clarke and the family dedicated to preserving his memory. Over the past three years, the annual event held in Corey’s honour has generated more than $51,000 for the Children’s Wish Foundation, an organization that granted Corey’s wish for a fishing boat while he was still battling cancer. The guitar was presented to Wilcox at small coffee

EMC News - Norwood History belongs to everyone and not just academics, classrooms and lecture halls, says Dr. Michael Eamon, principal of Lady Eaton College at Trent University where he teaches Canadian history. It’s also a subject that forces people to ask “the why question,” to reflect on civilization and society and to think more deeply about what makes a good citizen, Dr. Eamon said after his lively and thoroughly entertaining presentation at the 1812 and Diamond Jubilee Gala at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 300 in Norwood. Dr. Eamon, who studied at the University of Ottawa, Queen’s and Cambridge, is renowned for his work outside the classroom and his special interest in public history and heritage which he enthusiastically embraces in exhibitions like the Faces of 1812 now showing at the Canadian War Museum. His interests are broad; his fourth degree, a M. Phil. from Cambridge is on the History of the Philosophy of Science. “It’s great to bring history out to the public,” Dr. Eamon says. “History happens in the classroom but that’s not the

only place it happens; it happens here in Legion halls, it happens downtown, it can happen at historic sites.” “Dinners like this and public commemorations are so key to remembering,” he said. “If you relegate history to a classroom then it’s just another topic and people start to discount it. If we have history everywhere in our lives the more relevant [it becomes].” Dr. Eamon is admired by students and history buffs because of his passion for the subject and his eloquent insistence on its relevance. “I try to be enthusiastic and share my love of history but that’s not enough. If you just stay inside the university classroom it’s stuck there.” He praises Norwood District High School teacher Norm Vandenberg’s use of re-enactments, what he calls “experiential, felling history.” “It’s one thing to read a text and read that wool uniforms were itchy and hot,” he said. Putting on those uniforms and experiencing the heat and discomfort during drills and mock battles drives that truth home. “That type of learning is

most essential especially for high school students. Norm and great teachers like him go beyond the ‘mark the facts’ and get to the experience and the story of history. And that’s what students connect to, the stories. “As we get older we all love history. Maybe as we get closer to the end we realize that humanity is important and there are stories to tell. “Knowing history is a way

of asking that question ‘why?’ Why is the most important question.” And the “why question” fits into the quest for better citizenship,” Dr. Eamon adds. “I think every good citizen needs to question civilization and society but also contribute to it. When you ask why maybe you’ll come up with some answers and say ‘I need to step up to become a better citizen.’” “One of the great things about history is when you learn about past citizens; maybe they can inspire you to be a better future citizen.”

Restaurant prepares to host charity dinner By Sue Dickens

EMC News - Campbellford - Be My Guest Family Restaurant is hosting its fifth annual charity Thanksgiving dinner and the owners are already making preparations for the big day.

Each year Andrew Papaioannou, co-owner of Be My Guest with his father Phil and brother Kosta, prepares a Thanksgiving meal for the community and donations for the meal are accepted on behalf of an area charity.

“We work with our food suppliers on this event, getting donations that allow us to put on a full Thanksgiving meal,” said the restaurant owners. “All we ask is that if you are able to make a donation, you put it in the donation

box during the event. This year’s choice is Community Care Northumberland.” The afternoon event is a busy one. Last year close to 500 people accepted the restaurant’s invitation and so it is a “first-come, firstserved basis.”

“We are honoured to be selected by Be My Guest Family Restaurant,” said Trish Baird, executive director of Community Care Northumberland. The meal includes the traditional turkey, mashed potatoes, vegetables, dress-

ing, gravy and a dessert. The charity Thanksgiving dinner takes place Monday, October 8, from noon to 5 p.m. Be My Guest Restaurant is located at 16 Doxsee Street North, Campbellford.

It was an effort led by seasoned veterans who know what it takes to win the big games. “We can’t say enough about the veterans on this team,” infielder Devin Gerow said. “Rob Elmhurst knocked out three home runs in a crucial game for us, Brian Dainard goes crashing into the fence to make a great play to get a big out for us and Bob Wilford played through a very painful injury because we were short on bodies. “These guys really showed us young players the sacrifices that we have to make to win champion-

ships,” said Gerow. Shortstop Dan Weatherup tipped his hat to pitcher Bryce Levesque who pitched all four games. “The man is a work horse and he’s a great pitcher and a great competitor that keeps us in a lot of games that we probably shouldn’t be in,” Weatherup said. “But that’s what the elite pitchers in this game do for their teams.” Even with the veteran presence the team has a core of young players that will keep the PTs strong and championship-worthy in the future, pitcher Brian Grattan added. “We have a great group of young players on this team and they’re the future of this team,” Grattan said. “We need to keep bringing in at least a couple new young players each year to ensure this great game survives and continues to entertain the fans who come out to watch it.” Catcher David Lobb praised players of the game Elmhurst for Havelock and Joe Sullivan for Dennie Scott’s. “Sully pitched great in the play-offs and Rob was swinging a really hot bat for us,” said Lobb.

efforts to corral the Kenner Collegiate Rams in both junior and senior action. The juniors rallied from a 6 - 2 half-time deficit to edge the home side Rams 9 - 6 with running back Alex Barrett punching in the winning touchdown on a 30-yard scamper. The senior Knights showed early resiliency in winning a mistake-prone opener nipping the rams 15 - 14 on a punt-rouge by Junior Rivera. There was a slow start to the junior opener with Norwood taking an early 2 - 0 lead on a Bret Smale safety. Down 6 - 2 at the half the Knights re-grouped with the coaching staff making a few adjustments which paid off. The Norwood defence held the Rams in check and set the stage for Barrett’s winning touchdown off a pitch out from quarterback Mike Burtt with four minutes left in the fourth quarter. Noah Wilson nailed the convert to make it 9 - 6. The defence pinned down the Rams to ensure the win with Smale snagging a fumble off the Knights touchdown kickoff and Jacob Bennett picking off a Kenner pass on the final play of the game. The senior game was typical of a season starter with lots of sloppiness to go around, coach Jim McMillan said. Please see “Knights” on page 23

EMC News - Campbellford - One of the greatest players to put on a Campbellford Rebels sweater will be honoured before the defending Empire B Junior C champs kick off their home schedule against the Port Hope Panthers September 29. The Rebels will officially retire captain Lucas Hooley’s jersey before the action as the team takes time to celebrate their all-star captain and the club’s greatest season, one that fell a single game short of the OHA Schmalz Cup final. The Rebels notched their sixth Empire title last year after dusting the Picton Pirates in five games then went on a run for the ages that included two sevengame series, a Schmalz Cup quarter-final win over the Clarington Eagles and a heart-breaking seven-game loss to perennial OHA powerhouse Alliston Hornets who showed their mettle in rallying from a 3 - 0 series deficit. And through a season of off-ice tumult, Hooley’s captaincy shone through brilliantly with leadership on and off the ice while dazzling with his performance which earned him Empire League defenseman of the year honours. The 6-foot 3-inch blueliner was a force with the Rebels for four seasons racking up 119 points in 152 games including 26 goals and 93 assists. Through 31 play-off games in three seasons he added 11 goals and seven assists. During last year’s championship run he chipped in with 33 points including 26 helpers. So it’s only fitting that the modest D-man is given a night in the limelight to help the Rebels, who posted a 26-13-1 record last year, start their title defense. It will be a tough challenge because they definitely have a target on their backs. Veteran Seamus McDougall inherits the “C” from Hooley and Campbellford

But the team hung in there despite dropped passes, penalties and mental mistakes. The team found the end zone twice on touchdowns by Rivera and Michael Browers, one of two CDHS Flames players on the senior Knights. Jordan Burtt played a strong game at quarterback, McMillan said. “A win but boy an ugly one,” coach McMillan acknowledged. The juniors travel to Campbellford for a September 27 battle while the seniors get set to host Thomas A. Stewart October 4.

Sheep advocate continues fight after raid By Sue Dickens

Trying to postpone the inevitable, a clearly upset Montana Jones had to turn over the four remaining heritage lambs on her property to the CFIA during a raid last Saturday morning after being served with a warrant. Photo: Ursula Fugger

EMC News - Hastings Faced with foreclosure on her 100-acre farm, Montana Jones seemed dazed by the events of the morning. Last Saturday about 8 a.m. a convoy of vehicles arrived on her property, Wholearth Farmstudio, and police shut off access as officials with the Canada Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), armed with a warrant, proceeded to search for any remaining Shropshire sheep. “They had a use of force authorization,” she said, still trying to comprehend what had happened. Jones’ efforts to save her flock of rare heritage Shropshire sheep has been the centre of controversy and national media attention since the CFIA decided to quarantine her farm after a sheep born in 2006 to an Alberta farm was said to test positive for scrapie three years later. By 10 a.m. local media had arrived but only after four lambs had already been load-

ed onto a truck and removed, taken to Ottawa to be euthanized later that day. “It was all very intimidating,” said Jones as she tried to gather herself to talk about what had just happened. “I still have eight ewes three lambs and two rams that are Shropshire … just not the genotype they want,” she said while gathering her thoughts. “There is a move to wipe out ARQ/ARQ sheep as they have been considered to be a susceptible genotype for possible scrapie,” said Jones in an earlier posting on one of her web sites. Sheep with genotype ARQ/ARQ, (denoting polymorphisms at codons 136, 154, and 171), are susceptible to scrapies, according to the CFIA. “I had 75 in the flock at this time two years ago,” she said looking around her farm with a desolate expression on her face. It was at the time, the largest flock in Canada. There is only a handful of these left. Please see “Fund raiser” on page 3

Medallist Liz Manley to join Hockeyville party By Richard Turtle

EMC News - Stirling The stars are coming out to Hockeyville. While NHL contract negotiations have resulted in the postponement of the planned NHL pre-season game between the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Toronto Maple Leafs, Hockeyville celebrations are moving ahead this weekend and,

along with the Stanley Cup parade, there will be plenty of familiar faces joining the fun and hitting the ice at the local rink. Former Trenton resident and Olympic silver medallist Elizabeth Manley will be participating in Hockeyville celebrations, conducting a pair of skating clinics Sunday morning. Manley, who skated to a second-place

finish in the 1988 Winter Olympics, was also a threetime Canadian champion and a top ten finisher five times in the World Championships in the 1980s. “Having Elizabeth Manley come to our little community is such an honour,” says the Stirling Figure Skating Club’s Laurie McMurray. And while participants in the clinics have

already been determined, McMurray says the public is welcome to watch from the stands. As well, photo and autograph sessions will be held during the last 15 minutes of each clinic. The STARskaters clinic will be from 10 to 11 a.m. with the Canskaters taking the ice from 11 a.m. until noon. But Manley isn’t the only

Canadian skating star expected this weekend. Along with hockey’s most famous trophy, the Stanley Cup, visitors to Hockeyville will also have a chance to meet several former NHLers as well as today’s Belleville Bulls. Beginning at 11:30 a.m., the Stanley Cup parade will run west along Front Street from Wells Ford to the arena where activities will contin-

ue until 3 p.m. Sunday night features a celebrity hockey game which will include appearances by Hockey Night in Canada’s Ron MacLean and former NHLers Rob Ray, Jamie Allison, Gary Leeman, Mike Johnson and many more. Tickets for the game have already been issued. Immediately after the parade, several players will be Please see “Hockeyville” on page 3

Selick is a lawyer with the Canadian Constitution Foundation. “This is such a beautiful place,” said Jones. “If successful … and I can find a job …I would shift my focus ever so slightly. It would be a demonstration farm, about rare breeds and heirloom seeds etc. I’d love to do workshops on our agricultural biodiversity and about how we are losing it,” she added. “I’d make it open to the public so they could just come and learn and enjoy the farm.” The event, which is taking place Sunday, September 30, begins at 10:30 a.m. and is being billed as a fund raiser to save Wholearth Farmstudio in support of “food freedom, rare heritage breeds and agricultural biodiversity.” For directions, an invitation and more information go to <http://lifestock.ca/as-faras-i-can-go/>.

EMC News - Brighton - A local student has qualified for the grand prize final in a national photo contest. East Northumberland Secondary School student Hannah Rittwage won round two of the Learning Partnership fourth annual Ultimate Dream Job Contest. Voting ended one second before midnight Sunday and when the results were announced at noon Monday, her mom called to let her know. She had to call back to make sure she heard right. “I thought I was going to pass out,” said Hannah. The contest is open to students across Canada starting Grade 9 this fall. Contestants submit a photo representing their dream job, along with a short explanation, and each week the ten best will be displayed online for voting. The top three win prizes and the winner advances to the finalist gallery where the public will elect a winner. Identified on the web site only as “Prosecutor,” Hannah wrote, “It is my dream to be a prosecuting lawyer and I believe that Lady Justice represents the job perfectly. I love the idea of representing justice in our society, making whoever had committed a crime pay for it justifiably.” The inspiration for law and order comes from her dad, Deputy-mayor Tom Rittwage, who works at Warkworth Institution. “I’ve been interested in the law since I was 12,” said

Ways to lower car insurance rates at any age Drivers should look for more savings regardless of driver profile. Auto insurance is a major expense in a household budget. While it’s mandatory to have insurance, overpaying is not necessary. There are simple ways of getting a more affordable auto insurance rate, regardless of age or driving experience. NEW DRIVERS Use of a ‘good student discount’ is one way to save on insurance for a young driver. Many insurance companies offer a discount for students who carry a minimum required grade average. Another way to save is by taking a driver education course from an approved school; to learn the rules of the

road. Be sure to inquire about these options, as they may not always be advertised. DRIVERS OVER 25 There may have been some improvement in yearly premiums for drivers with some driving experience. Don’t forget to also ask about further discounts. These may include: installing a security system, driving an eco-friendly car, or installing safety features such as winter tires. If recently married, combine policies with your spouse and take advantage of bulk discounting by having more than one car insured with the company. EXPERIENCED DRIVERS An experienced driver with a good driving record may be eligible for better insurance rates; the key is to find the insurance company that will offer the lowest rate. Shopping around for car insurance is the easiest way to find a better way. Other ways

to save include changing your deductible – perhaps carrying a higher deductible; or, combining home and auto insurance policies with the same insurance company. DRIVERS OVER 55 YEARS Mature drivers over 55 years old may qualify for some of the best rates available. Some insurance companies across Canada specialize in getting the best rates for mature drivers. There are also retirement benefits to keep in mind: no commute distance may mean a lower rate. Make sure the insurance company changes the commuting status to pleasure use. MORE TIPS Remember to review your policy frequently. Tickets come off your driving record in three years from the date that you are convicted and accidents come off in six years. If a ticket or accident has come off your driving record,

check with your insurance company to make sure you’re not still paying for that ticket or accident. If you drive an older car, you may want to remove the collision coverage if you feel that it’s not worth the extra yearly cost to compensate you for your vehicle value. This will reduce your insurance premium. Many car insurance companies may actually offer a lower rate to drivers who pay their premium in full on renewal than to those who choose to pay in installments. Monthly payments often come with fees that are charged on each installment. Paying the whole thing up front is a quick and simple way to pay less. No matter how old you are, it is always a good idea to shop around for a better rate. Quoting sites like ComparaSave.com help drivers find the lowest insurance rate available within their network of over 30 insurance companies.

Arts Council celebrates October is Arts Month EMC Lifestyles - Brighton - October will be a busy month for the Brighton Arts Council (BAC) as they do their part to celebrate Arts Month in Northumberland County. The arts organization is playing host to no less than 20 workshops and performances throughout the month at their new headquarters, The Gates, on Presqu’ile Parkway as well as a weekend show at East Northumberland Secondary School and the Brighton community centre from October 19 to 21. How does the BAC gauge success after their first summer season at The Gates? More than 700 people signed the guest book from the mid-June opening through the Labour Day weekend and, says BAC president Ron Waddling, “the majority were visitors to the gallery.” “This is a pilot project and things are very much in their early stages,” he said. “We’re gauging it as we go along.” But, he adds with a big grin, there was at least one sale every day the arts and culture centre opened its doors. “October is Arts Month is for all artists, arts groups and our relatives … those who ben-

efit from and support the arts,” says Waddling. “In October, we share experiences and a host of workshops bring members and non-members together to get a good sampling of a wide range of interests in the arts community.” Waddling credits new BAC executive assistant Katie Litt for creating the October program. “This is more than co-ordinating hosts and disciplines,” he said. “It’s a great value and a new opportunity to meet the artists, be entertained and gain a little knowledge in a friendly setting.” Litt, a theatre studies and art history graduate from the University of Guelph, says she’s had experience organizing small events at the Diefenbunker Museum at Carp, Ontario and Barnum House at Grafton but admits the Brighton October is Arts Month agenda is her biggest challenge so far. “It’s been really great,” she said. “All these people are extremely passionate about the arts and extremely passionate about what they do. “And to be able to offer 20 workshops for only five dollars each, it really opens up the arts for everyone. It gives everyone a taste of what Brighton has to offer and there’s

definitely something for everybody.” Workshops include everything from carving Harry Potter wands to painting, dance, drama, history and lots more. One has certainly captured Waddling’s interest. He’s already registered. “The drum circle [on

October 13] is something I personally have never experienced,” he said. “When I heard the host [Frank Blanchet] sing, I signed up. It’s worth five dollars to hear him perform.” Patrons are asked to enroll in advance for the workshops and performances at The Gates. For

more information or to confirm your attendance email <brightonart@xplornet.ca> or call 613210-0851. As a prelude to the October feast of the arts, The Gates is featuring a special five-woman show, Morocco Rouge, this weekend from 1 to 8 p.m. September 29 and 1

to 5 p.m. September 30. On October 1, Margaret Roberts from Blossoms will be holding a workshop on Thanksgiving arrangements from 2-3 p.m. and on Wednesday, October 3, Nichola Battilana will hold a mixed media workshop, Wizards and Witches from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.

BMX racers wheel to winning season By Richard Turtle

EMC Sports - Stirling Like a lot of kids their age, brothers Cole and Lance Zufelt spent a large chunk of their summer just racing around on their bikes. Unlike most, it earned them a roomful of hardware and the chance to compete in a pair of national competitions in the U.S. next month. Cole, who turns nine in October and Lance, seven, just finished their second full season of BMX racing and their results were pretty hard to beat. Cole, who took the provincial championship on 20-inch wheels and a second place in 24-inch currently ranks second of more than 300 riders in the province. Lance ranked third of all seven-year-olds and currently stands ninth in the province. Racing BMX in Kingston and Gananoque every week as members of the Napaneebased McQuaig Racing Team, the boys have collected plenty of medals and trophies and also received local support from sponsors including Twisted Mounty. And for parents Tim and

Elise it’s meant plenty of driving. “They started racing at the national level this year and have raced in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, [and] Kingston,” says Tim. “We’ve traveled to Milton, Chatham, Gan, Ottawa, Kingston for Provincials.” And it’s far from over, with a few trips looming on the horizon. “We’re going to New York this weekend, North Carolina at Thanksgiving and Florida at the end of October,” he says. And for Cole and

Lance, it will mean missing a bit of school in order to compete. And they don’t mind that part either. Despite the travel, it can get pretty intense on race day, they say. Now an Olympic sport, Tim explains, BMX racers use customized bikes and compete in groups of about eight at a time racing around a smooth but windy and hilly course measuring several hundred metres. Crashes are not uncommon, Lance admits showing off a friction burn on a sleeve,

but injuries tend to be minor. Riders, the Zufelts say, are almost certain to have bruises and scars on their shoulders and hips. A race consists of a single lap but these riders and their spectator parents agree that minute or so is flat out excitement. The bikes aren’t exactly standard issue. Often purchased in pieces, each component can be slightly altered to suit the individual rider and assembly, modifications and

reassembly can all become part of the routine. And the requirement for helmets and other protective gear goes without saying. When not on their bikes, the brothers enjoy hockey, soccer, snowboarding and cross-country, among others. But their parents are eyeing up their bikes and planning on getting in on the act as well just for the sheer fun of it. “I’m going to start next year,” Elise says. “It’s a

really good family sport.” And Tim, who raced motocross for 14 years before injuries slowed him down, says you won’t find many workouts that match a trip around a BMX track. The boys’ final race of the season, The Disney Cup in Orlando, will also include a family holiday with plenty of time away from the track. “They deserve it,” says Elise. “They had a really good season.”

What did you do this summer? Cole and Lance Zufelt raced around on their BMX bikes and collected a few trophies. But the Stirling duo have a few races left with national competitions in North Carolina and Florida in October. Photo: Richard Turtle

Members of the Royal Canadian Regiment from Niagara donated $500 to the Afghanistan Memorial to Mayor John Williams. Included in the presentation were John Clark, Harry Preenen, Bill Robson, James Kaczmarek and Al McKelvey. Photo: Kate Everson By Kate Everson

EMC News - Trenton Members of the Niagara branch of the Royal Canadian Regiment Association have donated $500 to the Afghanistan Memorial in Bain Park. President Al McKelvey said they discussed making the donation at their recent annual general meeting.

Mayor John Williams accepted the cheque at city hall saying it is important for people to be aware of the significance of the memorial which recognizes our Canadians who died in Afghanistan. “We started working on this campaign for two years,” he said. “I have been to almost all the repats since 2006, and

there were people at the fence lines and on the overpasses.” He said it is important to do something to remember these brave soldiers. There is no government funding for the memorial as the committee wanted it to come from donations across the country. “We wanted it to come
