Terry Fox Run remembers the hero for cancer

By Kate Everson

EMC News - Trenton “Did you ever know that you’re my hero?” sings Trenton Idol winner Michayla Maryhuca. “You are the wind beneath my wings.”

The perfect voice rang out into a clear sky behind Trenton High School on Sunday, the day of the Terry Fox Run. Not long afterward, a huge flock of blackbirds flew over the parking lot where volunteers were exercising to get ready for the run. Like the song, Terry Fox’s cause was on the hearts of many who were there that day, a tribute to all those who have fought and are still fighting cancer.

“This is the world’s largest one day fund raiser,” said organizer Tanya DeWitt.

Hastings County Historical Society town crier Bruce Bedell rang the bell and announced the beginning of the run. Heather

EMC News - Brighton - The longawaited Community Development Plan (CDP) was delivered to municipal council at their regular meeting on Monday night.

“One hundred and twenty-three individuals participated [in developing the plan], in one form or another,” consultant Eric McSweeney told council. “The idea was to provide as many channels of communication as possible, both going out to people but also allowing them to communicate back to us.

“In addition to that, we had the CDP steering committee that met several times. It was a fairly large committee representing a broad cross section of the community.”

McSweeney explained how three theme areas—community development, economic development and tourism— were highlighted as the main pillars of

the plan and where they overlapped became the essence of success.

“We deemed these to be the key priorities that get implemented,” he said.

“So, if you want to dedicate any resources at all, that’s really where the focus should be early on because they’ll have the most significant impact in moving Brighton forward.”

The list includes: prioritizing and employing recommendations in the Vision for Recreation, Trails and Green Space report and the Accommodations Assessment; developing arts, culture and heritage (“the idea is to help grow this sector - it will help the community, the economy, as well as tourism”); developing the necessary infrastructure to help people who are already in business or thinking about starting a business get going in Brighton; supporting a youth mentorship program and introducing

Sarcoma Step and Fetch, to raise awareness of a specific kind of cancer. Increased public awareness is needed to help fund research for this rare and dangerous cancer which can develop in almost any area of the body, in soft tissue or bones. About 5,600 people die of this disease every year.

Sarcomas are among the most life-threatening cancers children can face.

Nine-year sarcoma cancer survivor Teresa Bell and her daughter Joanna invite people to come out and support this worthy event to raise awareness.

The registration is free and the walk ends at JB Print with lots of prizes and a barbeque. More information is at <www.sarcomasteps.ca> or call 613-394-3245.

The runners were on bicycles, rollerblades, pushing baby carriages, walking and running along the route which was well marked and had water stands. Some registered first thing in the chilly morning then started right away, while others waited for the 9 a.m. kick off. A barbeque was held at the school at noon and T-shirts were available to help raise funds.

This is the first year the event has been held at the high school. Formerly it had been held at Copperfields Fitness and previous to that at the Holiday Inn in Trenton.

There were 167 participants and 20 volunteers. The amount raised was $17,429.

They all wore the black Adidas Terry Fox Tshirts.

“Both our parents had cancer,” said Tedi. “They died young.”

The children run every year at their school. This year they were going with their grandparents as far as they could.

doesn’t happen. But if the lungs are rejected, people go into comas, so it’s kind of scary. But it’s hard to look forward to something that could save your life or potentially kill you,” she said.

Amy Fox, Rosenplot’s sister, has organized a fund raiser to take place September 22 at the Elks Lodge in Trenton at 7 p.m. Tickets for the event are $10 each.

The night will also feature door prizes, a 50/50 draw and auctions.

Fox said the goal for the event was to generate awareness about how people can help and donate.

“My goal was to give her something to make her smile,” said Fox. She said donations can be made at Scotia Bank in Trenton. For more information on McDonnell’s journey Fox said there is a web site dedicated her at <www. helpjess.com>. There is also a Paypal link on the web site.

Rosenplot noted that one of the focuses of the event is also to underline the importance of organ donation.

“Organ donation can save so many lives; it only takes a minute by going to <www.beadonor.ca>,” he said.

Fox noted information on becoming a donor will also be available at the event and links are also on McDonnell’s web site.

Contract woes halt game

By Richard Turtle

EMC News - Stirling While the recently announced player lockout has suspended the NHL season and resulted in the resched-

uling of the local Hockeyville game, organizers say the party certainly isn’t over.

Cindy Brandt, who along with a committee of local

R0011629274

60 Millennium Parkway (613) 1-877-501-7726

That’s the double-edged sword of fear that stabs into the 30-year-old Trenton resident’s heart every time her beeper goes off for a transplant.

McDonnell and her husband, Arthur Rosenplot, have been beeped for transplant three times now. The most recent was just last week with each result the same; they were sent home after the lungs were determined not viable or suitable for transplant for McDonnell.

McDonnell was born with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), an inherited disorder of motile (moving) cilia. PCD is also sometimes referred to as Kartagener syndrome (PCD with situs inversus) or immotile cilia syndrome.

Effective activity of motile cilia is required to keep the lungs, sinuses and ears free of organisms and debris that can cause infection and disease.

As a part of the lung transplant requirements, she has to travel twice a week to Belleville General Hospital and once a week to Toronto General Hospital. These trips are to keep her strong and ready for a speedy recovery.

A good portion of the needed medical supplies and medications are not covered financially so costs keep accruing.

volunteers has seen a host of successful activities already extremely well-attended, says there is lots to come including the upcoming Stanley Cup Parade on September 30 as well as an NHL alumni game that weekend.

And other than the planned set-to between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Columbus Blue Jackets, “nothing else has changed,” she says.

Early this week no specific details were available regarding tickets but Brandt says a draw will be conducted this week with results posted on the Internet.

And the committee, she says, remains committed to the celebration of Hockeyville and continued fund raising for the arena. And pending results of the current NHL contract dispute, she says an announcement will be made with regards to the rescheduling of the preseason game to be hosted in Belleville.

But right now, says committee member and parade chairman Mike Wells, it’s time to climb aboard the parade bandwagon and come up with ideas for floats in the Stanley Cup themed parade scheduled to begin at Wells Ford at 11:30 a.m.

And with early interest shown so far and at least a pair of bands participating in the parade, he says, expectations are high that more will be joining the Front Street march to the Stirling arena.

Anyone interested in participating in the parade or entering a float is asked to contact Mike Wells at 613395-3375.

Heritage committee looking at incentives

EMC News - Brighton At their regular meeting last week, the municipal Heritage Advisory Committee looked at moving forward with a couple of incentives for homeowners who might be considering being listed on the register of properties of interest.

At their meeting in July, the committee requested municipal staff proceed with

the purchase of 100 fourand-a-half-inch cast-metal plaques to be presented to those on the list.

“This isn’t to do with heritage designated,” said municipal planning manager Ken Hurford. “These are for the people who have just agreed to be on the municipal register of properties of interest.”

In Brighton, being included on the registry is a

the concept of entrepreneurship in the elementary and high schools; branding and marketing Brighton; revitalizing Brighton; and connecting with CFB Trenton.

“The Brighton economy is much more closely linked to the Quinte West and Belleville economy than it is to the Northumberland economy,” said McSweeney.

“A year-round tourism information centre appears to represent good value.

Participation in QEDC [Quinte Economic Development Commission] also represents excellent value, investment attraction and

retention services.”

McSweeney suggested the main objective of the municipal community development officer should be implementation of the CDP. As well, a rebirth of the Brighton Economic Development Committee (BEDC) should focus on putting the economic strategy into action.

“The committee should really lead the implementation of the plan with strong support from QEDC, the municipality, Chamber of Commerce and Brighton Arts Council,” he said.

BEDC deputy chairperson Peter McCann supported the plan.

“We propose that council reconstitute BEDC with membership expanded to include representation from the creative economy, the business community, industry, tourism, youth and qualified seniors and then charge the new BEDC with implementation of the CDP recommendations,” he said.

“It’s an unusual step, but we feel we can do it. BEDC will prepare an action plan with targets, responsibilities and dates for implementation of each element. We will commit to ensuring the recommendations of the CDP are implemented in a timely, cost-effective manner.”

“We strongly recom-

mend this plan get moving,” added Downtown Business Improvement Area vice president and Chamber of Commerce director Gina Boyd. “Let’s break down some silos and really concentrate on making Brighton the place to be.”

Council approved the plan in principle and referred it back to staff for a report on implementation.

According to community development officer Vaughn Finch, that report is expected by early November.

cause it is a historic town. It looks and feels like a genuine Ontario small town. It has roots and people get a sense of community from that.

“The other thing is, communities that look after their heritage tend to be more successful financially, from an economic development point of view.

It gives a sense of community value that creative people seem to flock to.

People who come to a community like that can really drive the economy.”

municipality’s interest, once a property has been labelled an asset for the community, to see that property is looked after. Hopefully, for some, we would like to see them restored.”

Incentives could start out by waiving building permit fees and escalate to interestfree loans or tax breaks for a set period of time.

Why is the heritage element so important to a community?

“First, it’s social,” explained Cutler. “A lot of people come to Brighton be-

A new plaque, approved by municipal council, could soon be adorning homes on the register of properties of interest in Brighton.

which under the Ontario Heritage Act doesn’t actually have to happen,” said Hurford. “But, in Brighton, if the owner says ‘No,’ we don’t forward it on to council.”

“People are sometimes confused about designation and being on the register,” says heritage committee chairperson Dave Cutler.

“They figure if your house is registered, you have to obey certain rules. But the only rule on the register is you have to give 60 days notice if you want to demolish the building. It’s a completely different thing from designation.”

“And it doesn’t have to

be a building per se,” added Hurford. “Cultural heritage interest or significance could be just the property alone. It could be a place that was a meeting spot with a big history at the corner of two trails. There could still be historical interest in the location.”

At their June 18 meeting, municipal council had an opportunity to examine a spreadsheet outlining how 14 municipalities deal with financial incentives for the conservation of designated properties. But the report was ignored says Cutler.

“There’s no question of council ignoring the proposal,” he said. The plan was reconsidered at the heritage committee meeting in July but he adds, “We weren’t really prepared to make a decision on what we wanted to recommend.”

Now the committee is looking for an opinion from municipal CAO Gayle Frost.

“Not from a political point of view,” said Cutler. “But more about how it would work out with the financial system. But, when council accepts our minutes, they’re accepting the fact that we’re looking into this.”

“The committee is unanimous in feeling if the municipality wants to get more homes designated, we do need to offer an incentive,” he said. “The first thing we did was initiate the plaque program to give them some community recognition and next step is to see if we could add some benefit.

Letters to the editor

Greed is the problem, not Baby Boomers lieve that the Baby Boomers are being handed pensions and services on a silver platter. OAS and CPP are not handouts; they are earned entitlements. The Canada Pension Plan came into effect in 1966. An individual is required to work in Canada for a minimum of ten years in order to collect CPP. Like OHIP, both CPP and Old Age Security premiums are regularly deducted from most people’s pay cheques.

A Baby Boomer who started working at age 18 in 1966 and is still currently employed at age 64 would have been contributing to these pension programs for 46 years.

Best Buy CORRECTION NOTICE

The unfortunate thing for many Boomers is that their accrued company pensions have been lost or greatly diminished because of faulty management or bad investments on the part of their employers. This often means they must postpone their retirement and continue to work. This is in stark contrast to European nations like Greece, where hordes of protesters took to the streets when the Greek government announced it was raising the retirement age from 52.

Boomers often belong to the “sandwich generation,” responsible for financially supporting both their elderly parents and adult children. They may

Public Open House Tuesday October 9th from 6:00pm to 8:00pm, City of Quinte West Municipal Building, Multipurpose Room, 1st Floor, 7 Creswell Drive, Trenton Ontario.

Dear Editor, As we approach the completion of our first year of operation, the Quinte West Youth Centre would like to take some time to thank our supporters as well as update the community on the various programs offered in the coming months at the youth Centre.

Open since November 1, 2011, the Youth Centre has offered $10 annual memberships for 12- to 18-yearolds on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 4 until 8 p.m. and a multitude of positive activities for youth including art, foods, technology and gaming, leadership, homework help, sailing, geo-caching and many more.

The goal for our first year was to achieve 50 youth memberships and to date we have already surpassed that mark and are now aiming for 100 memberships in our first year. Quinte West Youth Centre will see 3,500 to 4,000 youth visits in this our first year! We are very pleased to have seen this much interest in the centre and owe a great deal of thanks to many in our community who have supported this effort.

homework help, movie nights and a question and answer evening regarding sex, drugs and rock and roll put on by Trent Community Corrections. We also have a mental health counsellor on site on Thursday evenings for youth, offered by Children’s Mental Health Service.

This year 2012/2013 will also see the Youth Centre become a charitable organization, hopefully opening the door for more financial support from the community. In order to continue to offer the programs we do at

vote to try to make a difference in the quality of their future. The problem is not the Baby Boomers. It is the greed, apathy and excessive spending that pervades everything, from government to business to the general public. People buy cheap goods from third world countries, then complain about Canada’s lack of manufacturing jobs. They confuse wants with needs and seek instant gratification.

It’s time to move away from the “buy now, pay later” mentality, and take responsibility for our lives and our finances. It is also time for Ms. Gregoire’s own Reality Check.

Dear Editor, I am 69 years old and on a small old age pension. What burns me up is that Hydro One is taking advantage of all of us old people.

My Hydro bill used to be $330 a month on a budget billing plan. Now since May of this year they jumped it up to $524 a month.

That is a $194 increase.

I’m not rich but that is a little too much of an increase and then they tell me that since I’m behind in payment that they will cut off my hydro. My wife and

I didn’t mind the $330 but when they added on another $194 that is too much. I wonder how many other people they are screwing over on hydro.

Also why should we have to pay for their retirement debt.

mitment in favour of selfinterest.” I respectfully wonder what led her to form this opinion. The Boomers I know worked hard to make the world a better place for future generations, campaigning for causes such as women’s rights, nuclear disarmament, wheelchair access, conservation, improvements in education, and affordable daycare. Many of them still do. Perhaps Ms. Gregoire has heard of the Grannies for Africa.

As a mother and grandmother, I know how discouraging it is for young people not to be able to find work in their chosen fields, if they are able to find work at all. I agree it is important for them to get out and

have been able to buy real estate at low prices, but they purchased it with low salaries. To put things into perspective: someone purchasing a $35,000 home while earning $100 gross per week in the 1970s would be like buying a $350,000 home in today’s market while grossing $1,000 per week. The difference is that today’s interest rates are substantially lower. As for Boomers paying low tuition rates, most students I knew worked their way through college or university, rather than getting a student loan.

Dear Editor, As a member of the Baby Boom generation, I would like to address a few misconceptions in Sheila Wray Gregoire’s column of September 13. First of all, Canadians do not have “absolutely free” health care. There is no OHIP fairy. We pay premiums, often through our payroll system if we are working, for our medical services. There is a difference between universal health care and free health care. Canadians in general are willing to pay higher taxes to ensure that our health and welfare services are in place.

Ms. Gregoire seems to be-

for tests in the Radiology Department and underwent day surgery. I received excellent care! All run efficiently, and everyone was professional, friendly and caring, making my visits very pleasant. A special thanks to Dr. Sue Chue-Lam, Dr. Glenn Gibson, and nurses Donellda, Marilyn, Jeff and Margot. Congratulations, staff at Campbellford Hospital.

It seems we are quick to complain when things go wrong, so I thought this was worth mentioning.

EMC Editorial - One of the first scenes in the ridiculous but thoroughly nasty film Innocence of Muslims shows angry Muslims running through the streets smashing things and killing people. So what happens when a clip from Gwynne Dyer the film dubbed into Arabic goes up on the Internet? Angry Muslims run through the streets smashing things and killing people.

It’s as simple as that: press the right button, and they’ll do what you want. Some Christian extremists set out to provoke Muslim extremists into violence that would discredit Islam in the eyes of the West—and it worked, of course. As the U.S. consulate in Benghazi burned and the American dead were carried out, many people in the West thought to themselves: “The Libyans are biting the hand that freed them.”

Wrong conclusion. It wasn’t “the Libyans” who broke into the Benghazi consulate and murdered the U.S. ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens; it was a heavily armed band of Islamic extremists. “The Libyans” recently voted in their first real election ever, and they elected a secular government. The film just gave the fanatics an opportunity to undermine that choice.

Maybe the Christian extremists don’t understand that their film serves the purposes of those who want to overthrow the moderate, democratically elected governments, both Islamic and secular, that have come to power in the “Arab spring.” Or maybe they do realise that, and hope that the violence that they are stirring up will bring Muslim extremists to power in those countries. After all, it’s easier to mobilise Western opinion against outright fanatics.

The grown-ups try to keep the situation under control. Grand Mufti Sheik Abdel-Aziz al-Sheik, the highest religious authority in Saudi Arabia, said that Muslims should denounce the film, but without anger: “Muslims should not be dragged by wrath and anger to shift from legitimate to forbidden action, (as) by this they will, unknowingly, fulfill some aims of the film.”

Exactly so, but the leaders of the Arab world’s post-revolutionary governments have to walk a fine line, denouncing both the film and the violent protests against it.

Moderate Islamic governments like that of Egypt’s President Mohamed Morsi have a particularly tricky task, since they are competing with the Muslim extremists who are organising the protests for the support of the same pious and socially conservative bloc of voters.

Letter to the editor

“We Egyptians reject any kind of assault or insult against our prophet,” Morsi said last Thursday, “but at the same time we firmly say that this cannot be taken as a justification to assault consulates or embassies and cannot be taken also as a justification for killing innocent people.”

It was not a sufficiently robust condemnation of the violence for U.S. President Barack Obama, who said on the same day: “I don’t think that we would consider [Egypt] an ally, but we don’t consider them an enemy.”

Obama has his own right flank to protect, and cannot afford to acknowledge in public that elected Arab leaders are in competition with Islamic fanatics for popular support, and so must choose their words with care.

Most American voters are not sophisticated enough to understand the intricacies of Arab politics, or patient enough to care.

Similarly, most Arab voters do not want to hear about the American constitution, which guarantees free speech and means that the U.S. government cannot just ban crude attacks on Islam by American citizens.

The elected Arab leaders will certainly have had this fact explained to them in private by their political advisers, but in public they must demand that the U.S. government suppress the film and punish its makers.

It’s not the United States that has attacked Islam, or even “Hollywood,” just a handful of Americans with a political and religious agenda. It’s not “Egypt” or “Libya” that has attacked American and other Western diplomatic missions in the Arab world, but small groups of Islamic extremists with a political agenda of their own, supported by a larger number of pious dupes.

Indeed, the film in question passed without notice when it had its single public screening in the Vine Theatre in Los Angeles in June; only a dozen or so people showed up, probably mostly friends of the producer. It attracted little more attention when a shortened version was posted on YouTube at the beginning of July.

It only took off when the religious Egyptian television channel al-Nas broadcast scenes from it on September 8, and then posted a clip online with an Arabic translation. That got hundreds of thousands of views in a matter of days, and the violent protests began almost at once. The Christian fanatics and the Muslim extremists are, in the old Marxist phrase, “objective allies.”

This is not a “turning point” in Western relations with the Arab countries or the broader Muslim world (as some excitable commentators have suggested). The whole thing will blow over after a little while, just like the violent protests against Danish newspaper cartoons about Muhammad did six years ago. It is a tempest in a teapot.

Just another deal

Dear Editor, Most normal people would balk at agreeing to a deal without knowing what the contents were. If I agreed to a mortgage without seeing the text, knowing the interest rate, or any possible clauses in the agreement, normal people would shake their heads. After moving in and finding another family living in the basement, and hearing a tractor trailer parking in the driveway at 1 a.m. on a nightly schedule, they might say, “Stupid is as stupid does.”

Along comes the Trans Pacific Partnership, TPP for short.

The Canadian negotiators had been trying to get in on the deal for two years but not under U.S. terms. Harper apparently sent his Chief of Staff Nigel, to agree to anything the U.S. presented and we are now on a 90-day waiting period for the other partners to give the thumbs up or down.

Canada has agreed to accept any text already agreed to by the other nine members. We have also agreed to abide by anything they include during the period from now until we are admitted to the table, all sight unseen The window opened for U.S. corporate representatives to insert outrageous clauses, which may destroy agricultural management programs etc., must seem surreal to their lawyers. The extreme secrecy means U.S. Senator Ron Wyden, who chairs the committee overlooking the TPP, has been denied access to the text of the U.S. proposals, while no fewer than 600 U.S. corporate representatives have full access. Guess then who benefits from this deal?

When questioned on this paradox, the answer was after

the release of the “Free Trade Area of the Americas” text, it became impossible to complete the deal. Apparently if the public knows what shenanigans are going on they will rise up and try to stop it.

To clarify: most of these countries already have trade agreements with one another; this is all about protecting the corporations. It’s called “investors rights,” or “taxpayers cover your pockets.” It involves the right to free access to markets, the right to sue governments for lost profits, extended terms of drug patent protection and a total ban on local job policies etc.

Further, we the paying public are not to know what is in the deal for the next four years following the signing. Should it fall through? We will still not be allowed to see the proposed text for at least four years. Could the four-year term co-inside with the USA and Canadian political term of office?

Why do we go through the charade of elections if our elected representatives do not even have the power to see the texts in documents committing Canada to unknown agreements for years to come? There is no length to this agreement, nor term where it would need to be renewed, this is it. “You don’t need to read it, just sign the thing.”

For more on this and other farces, go to the CCPA Monitor.

In case you missing something else from last week’s news, the USA just voted Mr. Harper as the “Best puppet the U.S. ever had” or was that “Statesman of the year.”

No NHL? Fine by me

By Terry Bush EMC Editorial - Gary Bettman has been commissioner of the National Hockey League for close to 20 years now and what has he accomplished? His illustrious record so far includes three work stoppages including the only lost season on record in the history of major professional sports and we’re not quite sure how this season is going to end. Three strikes usually means you’re out.

The man has managed to water down the league so much that what should be an exciting game on any given night, usually isn’t. But that’s to be expected in a league with enough top-notch talent to outfit maybe 20 teams but not 30.

Bettman, the little man with the giant ego, would never consider putting a few teams on the chopping block because that would mean he’s failed in his mission to bring hockey to the United States, a country that would rather watch high school football than the NHL. Better to have teams founder in the U.S. than to move them to Canada. The GTA could easily support another team though the woeful Leafs wouldn’t like it. When you’re the only game in town, it doesn’t matter if you suck, people will still come out.

Gary Bettman is the man under whose watch we enjoyed such great rule changes as the “five minutes for high sticking if you draw blood” rule that applied to everyone except Wayne Gretzky. And who can forget the multitude of disallowed goals during the “if any part of an opposing player’s body breaks the imaginary vertical wall outlined by the goal crease when the puck enters the net, the goal doesn’t count season” in which that rule was enforced for the entire year except when Brett Hull scored the Stanley Cup winning goal against the Buffalo Sabres.

You know the hockey world truly hates Gary Bettman when someone like Teemu Selanne, one of the classiest and most talented players to ever lace up a pair of skates, said on his blog on Monday, “Bettman is certainly the NHL’s most hated person. He makes $8 million a year.

Would Mr. Bettman be willing to give up his salary and give part of it to these poor teams? Hmm … interesting question.”

Selanne was referring to the league’s current labour impasse. From the billions in NHL revenue each year, rich teams are required to share revenue with poorer teams.

In a nutshell, the owners and their man Gary think the players should be contributing more to the pot. The players think they gave up enough in the last agreement. I won’t be shedding a tear for either side.

Canada’s game has been stolen by rich American owners and their point man Gary. Most American fans will easily find something else to watch on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Nothing much will probably happen until maybe the end of November because there’s no way on earth the NHL is going to screw up the very popular Winter Classic game especially when the game pits two original six teams against one another, the Leafs and the Red Wings. There is simply too much television exposure and money to be made on that one.

So what can we do as fans? Well, the logical thing to do to get our hockey fix would be to find the next best thing in our area. The Belleville Bulls or the Peterborough Petes will offer exciting hockey without all those very tedious commercial breaks anyone attending a live NHL game is forced to suffer through. Tier II hockey is also a very good bang for the buck. Triple A or Minor Hockey for that matter is also very entertaining.

There really is no sense pining for the NHL. They obviously don’t care about their fans as there is no reason this labour dispute couldn’t have been settled before training camps started. It’s all just a question of percentages. Two pens, one piece of paper and a table to slide that piece of paper back and forth on until a final figure is agreed upon.

The only real casualty in our area is the cancellation of the Kraft Hockeyville pre-season game that was to be held in Belleville. A big loss for a lot of excited kids especially after all the work that went into Stirling’s Hockeyville bid but other parts of the show will go on. The Stanley Cup will be paraded through the streets of Stirling at long last. It made it into Stirling’s 395 neck of the woods last month when LA’s Brad Richardson had it for a day and took it by boat from his cottage on Oak Lake just south of town to the beach so the kids there could see it.

We’ve been teased a couple of other times, first when Stirling’s Rob Ray was playing for the Sabres and when Pittsburgh won a few years back. Now we’ll all enjoy the real thing and a visit from a few NHL alumni to boot.

And looking on the bright side, when that NHL preseason game does finally make it to town, we might be fortunate enough to be able to watch a better team than the Columbus Blue Jackets kick the Maple Leafs’ butts.

And that will be a bonus.

Good Baby Box is hoping for points to help

By Michael J Brethour

EMC News - Belleville The Community Development Council of Quinte is hoping residents of the friendly city will be willing

to give up their rewards.

Ruth Ingersoll, executive director of Community Development Council of Quinte, explained that when her agency heard

the retail department store chain was closing the local operation on Bell Boulevard they were disappointed to say the least.

Ingersoll said the agency

has two main retail sources to purchase products wholesale for their Good Baby Box program including diapers, baby food and formula.

“We have two main

sources for getting those products, through our local Walmart and Zellers.

Zellers has been a longtime partner and they also give us a discount, in addition to having the added bonus of their HBC Reward Points,” she said.

She noted the points added up quickly for the agency considering several thousands of dollars are spent at any given time for the needed supplies.

But all that will end come March 2013 when the Bell Boulevard store closes as all those points from the public locally will be unused … unless the community donates them.

Ingersoll explained that a long-time volunteer for the agency came forward wanting to donate her points to the CDCQ, which got her thinking about the good the agency could do with more donated points.

Those interested in donating their points simply go to the customer service desk at the store.

“This cannot be done on-

line we have found out; it has to be done in store and the Community number for the CDC is 8546312; just give that number or ask the service representatives as they will have it on file,” she said.

Last year the agency had 940 families registered with the Good Baby Box program.

“That accounts for over 5,000 baby boxes,” said Ingersoll.

The program features discounted diapers, formula and baby food.

“People can stretch their dollars that much further.

When a family has a baby one parent usually goes on maternity leave receiving 66 per cent of their former income while expenses keep going up, so this program helps them weather that,” she said.

Ingersoll said the points donation could really help the agency for their fall crush and purchasing of supplies for the program.

“It’s just an easy way to give back to the community and help the babies in your community grow and be healthy,” said Ingersoll.

Creamery wins taste test EMC News - Stirling - The votes are in and visitors to this month’s water buffalo festival have chosen a winner.

More than 600 ticket holders attended the rain-shrunken event this year but organizers were pleased with the turnout as well as the dishes provided by nearly a dozen vendors.

But it was Stirling Creamery that came out on top as the favourite taste of the day, serving shaved water buffalo with smoked cheddar on a bun and red baby potatoes.

This annual celebration of local foods and businesses also shows off the talents of area chefs, says Stirling-Rawdon Economic Development Officer Elisha Maguire.

“All participants offered an incredible array of dishes and the organizing committee owes them a huge thanks for braving the rainy weather and making this year’s event another great success,” Maguire says.

Along with the nine participating vendors, organizers of the upcoming Hastings County Beer Festival were also on hand to promote the October 13 event hosted by Farmtown Park.

Stirling-Rawdon is located in the Food and Beverage (FAB) region of Ontario, Maguire explains, taking in Lennox and Addington, Prince Edward and the Frontenac Community Futures Development Corporation (FCFDC), whose mandate is to help entrepreneurs establish local food and beverage businesses.

Queen’s Jubilee Medal recipient gives to his community

By Kate Everson

EMC News - Quinte West As one of the local recipients of the recently awarded Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal, John Smylie is happy to be here and giving back to his community.

“When I came here from Brockville in 2003 and my family followed in 2005 we were welcomed with such warmth,” he recalls. “We absolutely loved it.”

He says his four children never wanted to leave. Two of them have now married and settled down in this community.

“This is my community and I am part of it,” he said.

“If I have the ability to make it better, I will. Angela lets me come out and do all of this.”

Smylie says they plan to retire here.

“It’s a fantastic community,” he said. “It’s way better than Brockville.”

He adds he appreciates being awarded the Queen’s Jubilee Medal.

“It’s nice to be recognized,” he says. “But that’s not why we do it.”

The owner of Smylie’s Your Independent Grocer in Trenton, was appointed

as Honourary Colonel of 436 Air Transport Squadron, 8 Wing Trenton, in November 2010. Mr. Smylie is committed to the vitality of the Quinte community, especially in his support, awareness, and promotion of military families among local civilians.

“When I came here from Brockville in 2003 and my family followed in 2005 we were welcomed with such warmth.”

He has been involved at the executive level of the Rotary Club of Trenton, past-president of the Quinte West Chamber of Commerce and twice has chaired the board for the Trenton Military Family Resource Centre.

Mr. Smylie is currently Chairman of the Board of the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation and the Warden at St. George’s

Church. As a result of his dedication and commitment, he is the recipient of the Paul Harris Fellowship Award from the Trenton Rotary Club, and the first civilian recipient of the Community Support Award from 8 Wing Trenton. In addition, Mr. Smylie has received the Angel of Hope Award from the Quinte Children’s Foundation, the Quinte Business Person of the Year Award, the Eastern Ontario Philanthropic Award, and the Volunteer Business Person of the Year.

Pastor dismayed at decision to support casino

By Kate Everson

EMC News - Quinte West Luke Vanderkamp, pastor at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Trenton, told council Monday he was disappointed by the results of their vote to support a casino.

“I was disheartened and dismayed by the discussion that took place prior to the vote,” he added.

He quoted Cain from the Bible when he said, “Am I my brother’s keeper?”

“Are we responsible for each other?” he asked. “Absolutely.”

Vanderkamp said there are many wounded souls in our society and the community needs to know they matter.

“Sadly, last month’s discussion sounded like money

mattered more than the poor, that the powerful mattered more than the powerless and the so-called strongwilled mattered more than the vulnerable,” he said.

He added that he recognizes that council has to keep the economic engine of Quinte West going but not at the cost of doing what is right.

“Please don’t let the pressure of money, power and entertainment stop this town from standing up for what is right,” he said.

Jim Harrison thanked the pastor for his timely comments adding, “The people in our community deserve our attention.”

Mayor John Williams said, “We do help in many ways.”

Nobody wants to get into a quid pro quo; it’s silly. But on the other hand, there is a principle here in terms of working as a partnership.”

“I think a letter should go out right away from yourself, Mayor, to the Minister of Natural Resources,” added Deputymayor Tom Rittwage.

“They don’t know what is going on at their level here in our little place.

“I truly believe they have the smarts to realize something like this is insignificant and they should have no problem waiving it based on our generosity when it comes to snowplowing their park at no cost.”

EMC News - Two Cramahe Township residents were presented with Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medals last week in recognition of their volunteer contributions in the community. The commemorative medal was created to mark the celebration of the 60th anniversary of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s accession to the throne.

EMC News - Brighton Discussions are ongoing between municipal officials and the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) to enhance public access to the waterfront.

For a couple of years now, the municipality has considered the construction of a picnic shelter in the green space just west of the Ontario Street boat launch. The 2012 budget includes $35,000 for that purpose and parks director Jim Millar along with planning manager Ken Hurford have been working with MNR staff to make it a reality.

The problem is an appraisal on vacant land values of comparable waterfront property resulted in an assessment of $19,000 per acre. On the basis of the 1.4-acre tract the municipality has its sights on, the total value is $26,600.

Annual fees for a land-use permit ranges between three and five per cent of the total value.

“It was noted this is the only flexibility ministry staff, at the district level, have when considering land use permit fees,” said Hurford in his report to council on Monday night. “Due to the nature of the municipal proposal and that it is not for commercial purposes, the ministry used the three per cent factor.”

The annual charge would be $790 plus HST, with a one-time inspection fee of $90, applied to the first year. The rental fee didn’t sit well with some councillors.

“The amount of money involved is not going to make or break us, but the principle involved is pretty important,” said Councillor Craig Kerr. “We do a lot for the MNR and I really think this needs to move up to a more senior level to suggest they need to revisit that decision or we may need, in our restricted budget, to recover snow-

Memorial Golf Tournament raises funds for Cancer Society

By Kate Everson

EMC News - Quinte West The Frank LeClair Memorial Golf Tournament has raised $9,339 for the Canadian Cancer Society. Fundraising co-ordinator with the Hastings Prince Edward Cancer Society Sue Rollins picked up the cheque at Fire Station #1 in Trenton on September 13. Organizer Chris Dodds, president of the volunteer firefighters association, said it was a great golf tournament held August 25 at Roundel Golf Club with over 80 participants.

“It was a quick day but meaningful,” he said. “We had a fire prevention course on site and we had fun. Next year it will be even better.”

The “awesome weather” contributed to the great day held in honour of former firefighter Frank LeClair who died in August 2011 in the line of duty. His son Shawn helped support the event. Frank was a volunteer fire captain at Station #1 for 24 years. Shawn now runs the automotive business Frank had in Trenton for 20 years.

Special thanks went out

Fire Chief John Whelan, Shawn LeClair, Mike Chestnut, Adam Burr, Dan Gates, Brad Graham, Sue Rollins and Chris Dodds pose with the cheque. Photo: Kate Everson

to Norampac, J&B Printing, Quinte West Auto and the city of Quinte West including the Mayor John Williams, Councillors Sally Freeman and Fred Kuypers, Fire Chief John Whelan and his wife Bobbi who contributed paintings for prizes.

Sue Rollins gladly filled out the amount on a giant cheque she had brought for the photograph, commenting this was indeed a good day for the Canadian Cancer Society.

EMC News - Batawa Seniors Unlimited has been celebrating for 22 years and on September 11 the club invited members to sign up for another year.

“It only costs three dollars a year,” explains president Lois McCumber. “You can join as young as 45. We want to bring in more people.”

At 60, Lois is the youngest member. She says her mother got her involved

in the kitchen and now she doesn’t want to leave.

“Next week is harvest dinner,” she says with a smile.

Judy Van Eckeris has been a member for 22 years.

“I come for the good company and good food,” she says. “I like the line dancing on Tuesdays. It’s good exercise.” Van Eckeris is Dutch and also enjoys speaking in her native tongue to some other members. “We’re not members of the church,” she

says with a laugh. “We’re outcasts!”

On Thursdays members can play games like chess or Bingo.

Seniors Unlimited meets at the Batawa Community Centre twice a week and often has special guest speakers like those from the Humane Society or representatives from various community groups. They also have bus trips posted on the board.

“Flavours of Fall”

By Michael J Brethour

EMC News - Belleville - Residents of the friendly city will soon get to sample the Flavours Of Fall.

Susan Walsh, event coordinator with the Belleville and District Chamber of Commerce, said the community is invited to the downtown core to celebrate fall on Saturday, September 29, from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m.

One of the features of this year’s event is the Apple Harvest Thyme food challenge which Walsh noted is very similar to the Souper Soup contest with downtown restaurateurs concocting a special dish using apples; members of the public can sample these for $2 each.

Walsh said almost all the activities have a fall or harvest flavour to them.

This year the event will also have a street closure, between Victoria Avenue and Campbell Street. “Basically the same format that they used for the street dance back in August,” said Walsh.

The closed street area will feature a main stage with a lineup of local musical entertainers for the public to

enjoy. In addition, on Front Street, city of Belleville vehicles and equipment will be there for youngsters to check out.

Horse-drawn wagon rides will tour from the north and south ends connecting the events between Empire Square and Market Square.

On the north end at Empire Square a barbeque and chili cook off will be held to benefit the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation, along with face painting, pie eating contest and a pumpkin carving contest.

The Empire Theatre will feature the Dr. Zeus film Lorax beginning at 10 a.m. and it is entirely free.

The Market Square will feature pumpkin carving workshops, seed spitting and colouring contests for the kids. Next door in the Memorial Arena will host the Tim Hortons Play Zone featuring Thomas The Tank Engine, crafts activities and Stuffy the Bear.

“All of the events are free; the only thing that has any cost involved is the food,” said Walsh.

She said the only way the event is run free is thanks to the many sponsors.

Wednesday, October 10 at Meyers Pier, Belleville 6:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.

in honour of Remembrance Day. Brighton Legion poppy campaign chairperson retired Brigadier-General Ian Douglas recalls how the event, held the evening before Remembrance Day, has grown over the years, starting with 500 and growing to 750 to almost 1,000 candles.

Cadets also take turns standing guard at the cenotaph throughout the overnight vigil, which ends after the official ceremony at 11 a.m. on November 11.

“It’s a very good way to raise money for the Poppy Fund and that’s very important,” said Douglas. “The Poppy Fund is what we use to look after our veterans.”

All funds raised from the memorial candles will go the Legion fund, which helps war veterans and currently serving members as well as their

families. Over the past year, $17,000 from the Brighton fund has gone to supporting veterans in need.

Ceremony participants are asked to purchase a memorial candle ahead of time for a minimum five-dollar donation to the Brighton Legion.

Luminary sales start this

weekend (from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and noon to 4 p.m. on Sunday) at Sobey’s and continue, mostly weekends, until October 24 at rotating locations in town including No Frills, the Beer Store, LCBO and the post office. The poppy campaign then begins on October 26.

Public Works cancels Flouds Bridge Road design

By Kate Everson

EMC News - Quinte West The Public Works committee has asked that design work for a new bridge at Flouds Bridge Road be stopped.

“Let’s shelve the design until it’s needed,” Jim Harrison suggested.

Manager of engineering

Tim Colasante said the design work would cost the city from $50,000 to $100,000.

“Let’s leave it,” agreed Mayor John Williams.

Chuck Naphan asked about the life expectancy of the current Bailey bridge.

Williams replied, “Longer than we are.”

WELCOME TO RIVERSIDE DENTAL CENTRE I am Dr. Robert Rawluk, and we are proud to serve our patients in the Quinte region with gentle, expert, compassionate dental care, just as we have for over 30 years.

The Public Works committee also was advised that work on the Frankford bridge has been delayed because the contractor hit the Bell line which was hidden in concrete. The completion date of the parapet walls and expansion joints is the first week of October.

Meanwhile upgrades to the storm sewer on Sidney Street will start on October 1 with the tender going out to Cobourg Development for $162,536.58. Various paving and reconstruction projects have been awarded to Norway Asphalt, a division of Drain Brothers, including the widening of an additional lane into Monogram Road.

The Public Works committee also approved reducing the speed limit on River Valley Road to 60 kilometres an hour, because of the blind bends, hills and driveways.

The speed limit on Stockdale Road from .6 kilometre south of Country Road 5 to County Road 5 has been increased to 50 kilometres an hour and the speed limit .6 kilometres south of County Road 5 to one kilometre south of Country Road 5 on Stockdale Road is increased to 60 kilometres an hour.

These changes were to make it a smoother transition for the travelling public.

“I built this place from scratch,” he said, noting that it was his son and younger brother Stuart, [now deceased], who decided to turn a beekeeping hobby into a business.

“We’re the only commercial beekeeping operation in Northumberland County,” he said.

“It’s costly but we’re the only beekeeper for miles

around that is inspected by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.”

This weekend will be the last one the honey house will be open for local business (Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.) as the Campbells begin preparations for the end of the season.

EMC News - Warkworth There’s something abuzz at Campbell’s Honey House as Hugh Campbell and his son Peter gather bee hives for the second and final extraction of the season.

It’s a process that has been going on at the honey house for the past 30 years.

“We have 1,200 colonies and each colony has about 100,000 bees,” said Hugh as he keeps an eye on the extraction from the honeycombs.

It’s a process that has been going on since the Stone Age. Honey found in the tombs of Egyptian pharaohs tasted by archaeologists has been found to be edible.

Not that the honey at Campbell’s Honey House sticks around that long.

Each summer it is shipped out in drums that hold 600 pounds of the sweet nectar.

“We ship as much as we can produce. It goes to people that sell to the stores mostly,” said Hugh as he checked the temperature of the honey filling one of their barrels.

“Temperature is very important. People who come here to buy our honey want to know, is this honey pasteurized. We tell them no, it’s not,” he commented.

“The thermometer there says it’s 98 degrees … We try to keep it under 120 degrees.”

Pasteurization of honey occurs at a much higher temperature.

“All this honey is natural.

It is 100 per cent what the bees bring in,” he said, adding, “Once you pasteurize it you take the goodness out of it.”

“We think our honey is the best in the world because it’s pure and it’s not blended with anything,” he added.

But temperature is not the only thing the Campbells watch closely.

They monitor their bees as well.

“Last year was a very poor year because most of our bees died over the winter,” said Peter.

“It is a problem all over the world now, keeping them alive,” he added.

In fact the deaths of honeybees was so widespread that the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs to Ontario’s sent a survey to commercial beekeepers. The winter 2010/2011 level of honey bee colony mortality among Ontario commercial beekeepers was determined to be 43 per cent.

For the Campbells it was closer to 50 per cent of their bees, 600 colonies were killed.

Everything from varroa mites to pesticides is being blamed and it’s happening worldwide.

“Nobody seems to know what’s killing them. The universities are studying it,” said Hugh pragmatically, explaining they had to raise their own bees from their existing colonies to replace

Liverpool’s 50th anniversary celebrations for the Beatles

This photo of the Beatles arriving in North America is found in Liverpool’s ‘the Beatles Story’ museum.

By John M. Smith

EMC Lifestyles - Back in September of 1962, John, Paul, George, and Ringo recorded Love Me Do, the song that first catapulted “the Fab Four” into fame and fortune, and that makes this September of 2012 half a century since the Beatles really emerged onto the world stage. As a result of this event, their hometown, Liverpool, is celebrating with a number of 50th anniversary specials – including a “Love Me Do Weekend” October 5, 6 and 7.

Thousands are expected to attend this special weekend event at Liverpool’s Albert Dock. After all, October 5 is the very day this debut single was released back in 1962, and organizers hope

fans will gather in Liverpool on that special day and partake in what’s hoped will be a record-setting sing-along of the classic song. There’ll also be a variety of musical performances held and special food and drink offers. As one executive put it, “no self-respecting Beatles fan will want to miss out on this once in a lifetime opportunity to be a part of Beatles history.”

I’m dating myself when I say that I remember the rise of the Beatles very well. I considered them “my group,” and I eagerly followed their first appearances on the long gone Ed Sullivan Show on television. I bought that first big album, Please Please Me, which included their first hit

single, Love Me Do. Other albums and purchases were to follow for me, for I became a part of “Beatlemania” and the Beatles went on to become (arguably?) the most popular and influential pop group of all time.

When I eventually went to Liverpool, years later, I discovered the Beatles, although long ago disbanded, were still a very major draw for tourists, and this sustained popularity finally led the city to wisely “jump onto this bandwagon” and go with it. Therefore, I found many Beatles-themed tourist attractions in Liverpool, including museums, statues, bars, hotels, restau-

A statue of Eleanor Rigby in Liverpool.

rants, and tours. I checked out “the Beatles Story,” a fantastic museum chronicling their history, and I visited “the Hard Day’s Night Hotel,” with its Beatles’ memorabilia and its statues of the “Four Lads Who Shook the World” on the roof. I visited the “Rubber Soul Oyster Bar,” the “Cavern Pub,” with its statue of John in front, the “Lucy in the Sky Restaurant,” located on the site of the original “Cavern Club,” where the Beatles began their career, and the Grapes, a pub where the Beatles often had a few pints between sets at the Cavern. I found a “Fab 4” store, a “From Me to You

Beatles Superstore,” a “Fab Four Taxi Tour,” and a “Magical Mystery Tour.” I searched for the boyhood homes of both John Lennon and Paul McCartney, and I checked out many of the memorable Liverpool locations that appeared in their lyrics, including “the long and winding road” that led to “Strawberry Field” near where John was raised by his Aunt Mimi, and “Penny Lane” where I found there was still a barbershop, a bank, and “a shelter in the middle of the roundabout”— just as described in the lyrics from so many years ago.

I even found a sculpture of pieces of luggage, entitled “Liverpool: A Case History,” located near the boys’ schools (and designed by John King, a Canadian) and a statue of “Eleanor Rigby,” dedicated to “all the lonely people.” I also learned that Paul supposedly worked on the song Lovely Rita, Meter Maid after receiving a parking ticket!

City Councillor Joe Anderson said: “This is a hugely significant year in the history of the Beatles and it’s one Liverpool couldn’t let pass by without a huge celebration …

We should never underestimate the power of The Beatles to attract visitors to the city, and this year-long cel-

ebration will bring even more fans to Liverpool, which will bring a much-needed boost to our local economy.”

Back in July, the annual “Mathew Street Festival” highlighted the Beatles’ 50th anniversary celebrations, as did “Beatles Day” (which was held on July 10 this year). I had the good fortune to be in Liverpool for the very first official “Beatles Day” celebration in 2008.

Another of this year’s special events still to come is a one-man play celebrating the life of Brian Epstein, the Beatles’ original manager and mastermind. Epstein The Play will be the first major production in the new Liverpool Epstein Theatre and will run between November 15 and December 1. Yet another scheduled event, on December 7, is the “Bootleg Beatles,” a tribute band that COACH & TOURS will perform a two-hour show that features Beatles’ songs. On December 8, the annual “John Lennon Peace Vigil” will take place at Liverpool’s European Peace Monument on the anniversary of John Lennon’s assassination in New York. Also on that same weekend (December 7 to 9), the Liverpool War Horse - Saturday, September 22/12 Philharmonic Hall will celThis restaurant is located on the site of the original Cavern Club, Credit Valley Explorer - Wednesday, September 26/12 ebrate Beatles’ music. where the Beatles began their career.

By Kate Everson

EMC Lifestyles - Trenton - The new art gallery at 84 Dundas Street West in downtown Trenton features paintings, sculpture, jewellery, photography, quilting designs and writing by local artisans. Each month a new display is put up by the members of Arts Quinte West and one artist is featured.

“Franco Phare is gone,” said Christine Pellati from Frankford, feature artist of the month and past president of Arts Quinte West.

“We repainted everything.”

She said there is plenty of space in the front for the gallery and for meetings and classes in the back room, which is also rentable. The gallery is open Wednesday

Three fund-raising events are planned to help refurbish the gallery with new lighting and equipment.

This show will be juried by two artists and two business people from the community.

St. Georges Anglican Church had Doors Open on history

By Kate Everson

EMC Events - Trenton One of the stops on Doors Open Quinte West on September 15 was St. George’s Anglican Church on Byron Street in Trenton ward.

The doors were wide open for tours of the 1845 stone church, including a trip to the crypt in the basement where the remains of the first rector William Bleasdell are still kept. The stained glass windows and renovated walls and ceilings, as well as the rare organ, add to the beauty of the church.

“This is a lye organ,” said interim organist Al Boyce who has been there for 26 years and playing the organ for 60 years including in France. “There is only one other in Canada.” He said this is the same type of or-

gan played by Beethoven. It was brought from a United Church in Niagara Falls area.

The church has been completely renovated and convenor Pat Collette was eager to point out the details now revealed on the ceiling and walls.

“The professional restorations brought it down to the originals,” she said. “We met in the parish hall all summer while it was being done.”

Canon Thora Rowe explained how one stained glass window with depictions of soldiers at war is used as a backdrop on Remembrance Day services.

“My father was an officer in the war,” she added.

The basement has also been completely rebuilt, with the old stone and bricks replaced with new walls and fixtures. Even the crypt for the Reverend Canon William Bleasdell looks shiny and new although he was placed in there in 1889.

“He has been here since the day he was buried,” said Collette. “The cement box was buried in dirt. We had it all dug out and put in new brick.”

The three small stained glass windows from Canterbury Hall were brought here and cut down a little to fit into the space behind the crypt. There is also a plaque with a photograph and information on Bleasdell who was born in England in

1817. He came to Canada with his wife Agnes in 1848.

There is still one descendant in Toronto.

Dorothy James had a his-

torical display on some of the clothing from the Victorian era including ladies silk dresses, hats, shoes and jewellery, a parasol, and an

ostrich feather fan.

“The dresses were those of Mrs. Robert Fraser,” she noted. “That was my husband’s grandmother.”

She said Robert Fraser was manager of the Molson’s Bank in Trenton. She added that women were a lot smaller then, including their waist size. Mrs. Fraser was 90 pounds and four feet

eleven inches tall.

Peter Kellett is working on a book about church history and had a photograph of the original church, with a place to tie up the horses outside and a wooden fence out front. Gerry Quick, chair of the cemetery board, handed out information on the restoration of the oldest church in Trenton.

United Way warehouse sale a success

EMC News - Belleville The United Way of Quinte is on a roll.

Judi Gilbert, executive director of the United Way of Quinte, said the turnout for this year’s annual warehouse sale in Belleville was excellent.

“I got here at 6:30 this morning and there were people that were here at 2 a.m. waiting,” said Gilbert.

As of 10 a.m. Gilbert said that well over 300 people had been served at the annual sale.

Gilbert gave a nod of the head to Procter & Gamble and Kellogg’s, acknowledging that literally without the support of the two companies the sale would not happen.

With members of the public enjoying buying household products including shampoo, toothpaste, paper towels, and cleaning and hygiene products for almost a 50 per cent discount the United Way recorded a total of $63,400 raised.

Almost two weeks ago

Gilbert estimated the campaign was running a few percentage points ahead of other years in comparison.

She added the success of the sale makes that much more progress for the agency to reach their $1.92-million goal.

“It’s starting to look good,” commented Gilbert.

To donate or get involved with the United Way, call 613-962-9531.

Quinte West will have the next warehouse sale which is slotted for October 13.

Soccer club to install lighting at Centennial Park

By Kate Everson

EMC News - Trenton - A letter from the Quinte West Soccer Club was directed to Public Works to reallocate $225,000 from the lighting of Centennial Park to the construction of a comfort station and office.

“This is a unique opportunity to partner with them,” said Chris Angelo, director of Public Works and Environmental Services.

The city had earmarked the funds for lighting of Field 9 in Centennial Park. The soccer club had been trying to get Trillium funding for a comfort sta-

tion and club house located next to the Splash Pad in Centennial Park but was not eligible for a grant.

The soccer club proposed the city reallocate its funds to the facility and in turn the club would apply for Trillium grant funding for lighting.

“It’s the same price,” Angelo said. “There are no additional costs to either.

It’s a win-win situation for both.”

He noted the reallocation is conditional on the funding being awarded to the club.

The new clubhouse and comfort station would in-

clude change room facilities for the Splash Pad, permanent public washrooms, equipment storage, meeting and training space as well as more visibility for the Quinte West Soccer Club.

“Over the past few years the club office has had to move several times creating confusion and leaving the club without a true headquarters,” writes Steve Thomas on behalf of the board of directors. “The presence of a permanent club office will help put a face to the Quinte West Soccer Club and be a central location easily accessed by the community.”

Belleville sailors bring home medals

EMC Sports - Two Belleville sailors, Steve Brown and Bryan Cuerrier, each brought home a medal from the recent Mobility Cup Regatta. Brown took the bronze medal in the Gold Fleet of the regatta and Cuerrier

captured the silver medal in the Silver Fleet. Both sailors represented Quinte SailAbility which operates from the CFB Trenton Yacht Club.

Mobility Cup is a regatta attracting top level Martin 16 sailors. This year the re-

gatta was held in Ottawa with 32 competitors from across Canada and the United States in the two fleets. Martin 16 sailboats are specially adapted boats for people with disabilities and are similar to some of those used in the recent Paralympic Games.

In addition to his bronze medal, Brown was also awarded a special trophy as Most Successful New Competitor in the Gold fleet.

This was particularly thrilling for him as it was his first competitive outing in eight years.

Cuerrier battled tough competition and overcame a slow start in the early races by powering his way through to second place overall. This tops a successful racing season for him having earlier in the season won the Martin 16 Ontario Championships

in the Silver Fleet.

Both sailors were coached

by Trenton’s Alex Renaud with team support provided

by Fletch Fletcher. This regatta concludes the racing season for Quinte SailAbility and they will hold their Awards Night October 11.

Bulls announce new captain and assistants type to lead by example.”

The Bulls also named their team of assistant captains on Monday, with four veterans sharing the duties this season. Stephen Silas, Brady Austin, Michael Curtis and Joseph Cramarossa will rotate wearing the “A” at home and on the road.

“We have a number of guys on this team who are capable of stepping up to lead, even if they aren’t being recognized with a letter,” added Burnett. “There is a real veteran presence on this team and we’ll need all of our experienced players to assume leadership in order to take us to the next level.”

Gaunce inherits the captaincy from former Bull Luke Judson who wore the “C” for the better part of three seasons. “It’s an honour to be named the captain of the Belleville Bulls,” Gaunce said with a smile. “In being in Vancouver over the summer and observing the guys there, you see their approach and realize what professionals they are. It’s my goal to bring that enthusiasm and drive to the rink every day.”

The Bulls begin their season on Friday night at the RBC Centre in Sarnia, squaring off with the Sting at 7 p.m. before facing the Plymouth Whalers on Saturday night on the road.

EMC Sports - The Belleville Bulls unveiled their captaincy for the 2012-2013 season on Monday, naming third-year centreman Brendan Gaunce captain along with Stephen Silas, Brady Austin, Michael Curtis and Joseph Cramarossa serving as assistants.

Gaunce was impressive as a 17-year-old, scoring 20 times while adding 48 assists in 68 games. The Markham native was drafted 26th overall by the Vancouver Canucks in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft and signed an entry level contract with the club on August 13.

Gaunce not only exhibits leadership qualities on the ice for the Bulls, but is recognized as one of the elite young players in Canadian junior hockey. He was nominated as the team’s representative for the OHL’s Bobby Smith Award in 2011, given to the academic player of the year and will attend Queen’s University this season.

Formerly the second overall pick in the 2010 OHL Priority Selection, Gaunce has developed his game on and off the ice over the past two seasons in Belleville.

“Brendan’s progression as a leader has been evident in the time he has spent here and he’s brought a high level of maturity and presence to our group this season,” said Bulls Head Coach and General Manager George Burnett on Monday. “He has high expectations for himself and for the team this season, and he’s always been the

Skies over Stirling abuzz with small planes

By Richard Turtle

EMC News - Stirling - The local airport was buzzing with activity this weekend as members of the Oak Hills Flying Club hosted a weekend fly-in.

Organizer Jim Halls says weather was ideal for much of the weekend with flights arriving and departing through much of Saturday and Sunday.

“I think it’s been pretty good,” says Halls of the first-time event that attracted pilots and an array of aircraft from other parts of the province. As well, local vendors offered lunches, entertainment and 50/50 tickets were available and

flights in an out provided sightseeing tours for several visitors. And while they have held similar fly-ins in the past, he says, last weekend’s event was the first of such duration and scope.

While organizers had anticipated more aircraft than the dozen or so that arrived each day, weather played a part with unsettled skies and cooler temperatures arriving late last week. But the weekend skies cleared offering local residents a chance to learn more about the facilities here as well as the services available at the small airport.

Christine Kilgore, who along with Halls owns and

operates Stirling Ultralights, was eager to take to the skies over the weekend in the couple’s Highlander, providing air transport with perfect visibility and a bird’s eye view of the township below.

And as the planes came and went, photographers and spectators lined sections of the runway for a close-up look of some of the more in-

teresting aircraft while cars lined the road nearby and visitors walked among the parked planes.

The airport show also featured representatives providing information on various clubs and groups affiliated with the airport including instructors, aircraft builders and mechanics and well as the pilots themselves.

And the air traffic around

Stirling has increased significantly in the last five years with several new additions to the local facility as well as many new aircraft. It’s currently the 40 and over age group who are showing the most interest, says Kilgore.

While younger members are encouraged, she says, flying does pose a few financial obstacles when children and other earthbound dis-

tractions are more pressing priorities. But now a pilot for six years and a member of that 40 and over age group, she admits there is nothing quite like the freedom of flight.

And last weekend at the Stirling Airport, regardless of age or experience, there were plenty of opportunities to learn how to get a flying career off the ground.

Mini stick rink the real deal for young people

By Bill Freeman

EMC News - Norwood The rink inside the rink is going to be the talk of the local hockey world this season.

The Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre unveiled its new mini stick rink last week and it’s already a magnet of activity for youngsters visiting the arena with family and friends or simply dropping by to ply their mini sticks on the 26-foot by 13-foot miniature rink that’s been installed in the standing concourse above the section six seating area.

“I’m extremely pleased with it,” community centre manager Greg Hartwick said.

“The kids come in here go right up there and play.

They’ve never seen anything like this before,” Hartwick told the Northwest EMC. “They make a beeline up there.”

Hartwick says that nonhockey playing visitors to the community centre are just as likely to be playing in the mini sticks rink. During a recent tourney kids were “playing constantly in it all day.”

“It’s good to have another avenue for the kids.”

The idea of building a mini stick rink took form after it was decided that the Euro Hornets team would not be travelling to Europe.

The Euro Hornets had raised $9,085 before the plug was pulled on the tour.

The majority of the people

The new mini stick rink at the Asphodel-Norwood Community centre has already become a popular destination for local children and those visiting from out of town. Photo: Bill Freeman

involved in the fund raising decided that it would be a worthwhile community project to invest that money in the miniature rink. Since that decision, Hartwick says they have had a steady stream of donations to the project.

There was also a con-

tribution from the David Andrews memorial hockey tourney held last spring.

Community Centre staff and volunteers helped put the rink together.

To highlight the Euro Hornets contribution there is a collection of Euro memorabilia hanging on the wall

behind the mini rink glass.

“They’re still “a little short” with fund raising for the $13,565 rink, Hartwick adds.

“It’s not a bad size,” he says of the rink. “The netting was a struggle at times but it all turned out okay.”

They are still awaiting

three sheets of glass which couldn’t be installed because they were an “inch off” the correct size.

Hartwick will post the rules that apply to the mini stick rink which include no slap shots, no pucks and no regular hockey sticks. The community centre is going

to order plastic mini sticks emblazoned with the Hornets logo.

“There have been no issues at all; the kids kind of police it themselves. I think most kids are pretty good about sharing.”

The rink is monitored by a camera as well centre staff.

A new beginning for local athlete

By Ray Yurkowski

EMC News - Trenton - Local strongman Rich Machell is pumped. And for a guy who was willing to give up on the world of competition just a couple of months back, it’s a renaissance.

“I was close to giving up on strongman,” he said.

“The fact that it is not a drug-tested sport and guys will do anything to win went against what I stand for.”

Machell mentions competing at drug-tested powerlifting events where he set four Canadian records and all he wants now is a level playing field, a situation where everyone has the same opportunity. And that can’t happen when you’re competing against performance-enhancing drugs.

“Competitors on steroids have a huge advantage,” he said. “Steroids break records - records that someone not on steroids could never hope to beat.”

Enter the power of Google. An online search led Machell to the World’s Natural Strongman Federation (WNSF), based in Hungary.

Since 2006, the organization has been recognized as the natural strongman sport governing body for steroidfree athletes. Their mission:

to encourage participation at all levels and develop athletes of national and international calibre. Their goal is to introduce strongman events as a demonstration

sport at a future Olympics.

Machell contacted WNSF and the reply included an invitation to their international competition at Calgary on September 29, the

first ever in Canada and fifth this year worldwide, following sanctioned events in Australia, Sweden, France and England.

“This is a huge step in my strongman competition career and I couldn’t be more proud to represent Canada against drug-free strongman from around the world,” he said. “It’s a long way to go and I really haven’t had a lot of time to train, but I’m not going to miss this opportunity. I couldn’t turn it down.”

“I want to be able to tell people you don’t have to cross that line,” he added.

“To able to do what I do without performance-enhancing drugs … I want every high school student out there to know that. I want everybody to know there is an alternative. You have choices in life.”

The primary reason why performance-enhancing drugs are outlawed in professional sports is that they give users an unfair advantage over the rest of the field.

And with a high-school-age daughter at home he wonders, “how can I take drugs and, at the same time, tell her to stay off drugs?”

Why the interest in strongman events, given its list of bizarre events: lifting logs, cars or huge stones, flipping giant tires or pulling vehicles?

“A lot of people don’t understand it,” he said. “My wife thinks I’m nuts, but it’s doing something others can’t.

“It’s a dream. I can perform in a sport I train for; I eat, sleep and breathe.

There’s nothing else I’d rather be doing.”

Strongmen have been

a fascination since ancient history. Mythology gave us Hercules along with Atlas, the primordial Titan who supported the heavens, and feats of strength have been around since the first Olympic Games.

In the mid-19th century, there was quite a bit of money to be made for professional strongmen, at county fairs and town theatres. Louis Cyr, a Canadian regarded as the father of modern strength events, lifted a horse clear off the ground at his first-ever strongman competition in Boston, at the age of 17.

But for the 29-year-old local competitor, a trip to Alberta represents a turning point.

“It’s a new beginning,” he said. “I’m in a good place right now and now it’s show time.”

New board means symphony survives billed as “a farewell concert” which would be offered free to the public, after which a general meeting would vote on the dissolution plan.

That concert is expected to be removed from the agenda once the new board starts preparing for a new concert season.

Still unknown is the situation of long-timed conductor Gordon Craig, who was expected at the meeting but did not show up.

In her farewell speech, Lisa Kemp, flutist, praised Craig’s work with the symphony over some 20 years and commented how the orchestra’s sound had improved “tremendously.”

She also reviewed her own long association with the orchestra, starting as a youthful student flutist.

“I am thrilled to see eight people coming forward for a new board. The community is lucky to have the symphony,” Apart from entertaining many thousands of audience members over the years, the

symphony has served the entire community as a cultural resource for training for amateur and youthful musicians.

A number of former players have gone on to successful professional music careers.

R0011619870

EMC News - Belleville A crowded annual general meeting of the Quinte Symphony Corporation Sunday evening saw the 52-year-old organization get a reprieve from a planned dissolution.

Eight volunteers stepped forward in Bridge Street Church Sills Auditorium to form a new board after the previous board resigned en masse. Before resigning, the former board had compiled a plan for dissolution which was to have been presented at the meeting if a new board could not be formed.

The new board includes Belleville Councillor Jodie Jenkins and Quinte Health Care staff member Kevin Jackson, and is expected to meet within days to elect officers and plan a strategy to get the music performance group up and running again as soon as possible. That will include an intensive fund-raising effort to get the board’s finances on a solid footing.

Part of the former board’s exit plan included what was

EMC Business - Quinte West - Trenval has had a very busy and successful 25 years. Past board members and guests gathered at the Ramada on September 13 to celebrate its achievements with a dinner.

Director Bruce Davis and Chair Glenn Kozak invited members to give tribute to the success of the business. This included Peter Briscoe, Eben James Jr., Bob LaFrance, Jack Dingle, Chris Herrington, Doug Law, Gerrit DeBruyn, Jack McFadden, Bob Rowbotham, Rosemary Davis, David Valcamp, Tom Shillington, Jacques Pilon, Bob Burkitt, Joe Fernandes, Ray Goulet, Glenn LeClair, David Wilson, Rick Barfitt, Derrick Morgan, Carl Swan, Lionel Bourgeois and Karen Theriault.

The members also recognized those deceased. A moment of silence was held for Jack Gibbons.

“He had looked forward to being here,” Bruce Davis said.

Other deceased board members included Doug Whitley, William McIlveen, Roy Rittwage, Tom Nobles, Brian Todd, John Sager, Alan Lawrence, Frank Hamilton and Ralph Weaver.

Mayor John Williams said Trenval has a great legacy and has helped so many entrepreneurs. “It’s a true success story,” he said. “They have helped small businesses and supported thousands of jobs.”

Trenval Business Development Corporation started at 5 Stewart Street in Trenton in 1987. Now it has its own office at Loyalist College and has nine partners.

A grand opening will be held October 15, the beginning of Small Business Week.

Northumberland Quinte West MP Rick Norlock presented a certificate to chair Glenn Kozak for Trenval, saying it had a quarter of a century of positive influence on the area.

Prince Edward Hastings MP Daryl Kramp said not many organizations operate as well as Trenval. “It has been a phenomenal success,” he said.

Kozak noted that Trenval had given out 650 loans worth $25 million in the past 25 years and had impacted 3,000 jobs. There are currently 350 loans in place and $1.5 million reinvested each year. “Success stories continue to grow,” he said.

LIFESTYLES

The Good Earth: EMC Lifestyles - As always, Gentle Reader, gardening should not be a chore. Once you begin thinking along those lines you need to adapt some practices. There is a bit of fall work approaching and it will require some physical effort. Perhaps this is the year you invite family to help you. If you do this, be prepared. Do the thinking before your kin show up so you can accomplish everything that needs doing, so their efforts are focussed on the task on hand and not dashing to the garden centre, and so that the incredible harvest feast you prepared, with the help of other kinfolk, can be truly enjoyed.

If you are hiring someone to help, doesn’t matter if it’s the kids next door or

a professional outfit, being prepared is still important.

Be clear in what it is you want done and the manner by which you want it done. At appropriate times, remembering that time is money, offer the workers a beverage and maybe even a small snack (homemade cookies are always welcomed). It is surprising how many of my professional colleagues mention this when they come to the wholesale counter.

Okay, to business: Task # 1 Relax, your lawn is not in as bad a shape as you think it is.

Task #2 Get busy, your lawn needs your help right now.

For those of us who did let our lawns go dormant this summer, we were probably

Reality Check:

Sheila Wray Gregoire EMC Lifestyles - The world is filled with so much beauty. Is there anything as adorable as a baby’s chubby wrists? Or as heart stopping as the first kiss with someone you love? Walking out in nature is a feast

of beauty, too: the rainbow after the storm; the bird songs that announce the arrival of spring; the mountains that steal one’s breath away.

If one is to believe in God—and I do—then I think these little glimpses of our natural world show us something fundamental about him. God’s actually pretty good.

That is not to say that life is always trouble free, but I wonder how many of our hardships are really God’s fault, and how many are simply the stuff of life? A good friend of mine, in his forties, was just diagnosed with cancer. Earlier this month our family marked the sixteenth anniversary of my baby boy’s death.

Early fall tasks

not prepared for the exuberant emergence of crabgrass.

We might be intellectually aware that this warm season annual prays to the gardening gods for such a drouthy summer and we know that they have literally millions of seeds laying about on each and every lawn in Canada (except for the one I saw in Glover’s Tickle, Newfoundland, which was a jumble of rocks, all painted green). As daunting as it might appear today, normal lawn care practices will have the balance set aright by next spring.

Once the lawn has “greened up,” give it a light raking and hand pull any broadleaf weeds that might have crept into the mix; thistles, henbit, and chicory have had a good summer.

So, top dress and over-

seed this fall. My suggestion is that you take a close look at fescue blends, they are not as showy as bluegrasses but they tolerate both heat and drought better, require less water and will grow in poorer soils. As well, they need less nitrogen and phosphorous.

Next spring; apply corn gluten as a pre-emergent herbicide to take care of crabby’s progeny.

Task#3 Enjoy your vegetable garden’s bounty. If you don’t have one, or need to supplement the quantity, go to your local farmers’ markets and/or search out farm gate opportunities. A “farm gate” operation is where you can go directly to the farm to purchase food from the grower. Folks, this is really important. We need to sup-

port our country neighbours.

They need our help, and we need theirs: “Farmers Feed Cities” is a truism, let’s make sure that it is our farmers who are feeding us. A Gentle Reader, Juanita Swayze, will back me up on this.

Task#4 Start dividing your perennials and ornamental grasses now. Yes, you can do them later and yes; you can do them next spring but now is the best time. Why not start with day lilies or any perennial that has finished flowering or does not have fall interest?

Task #5 Start planting spring bulbs now. In fact if you divide your perennials and plant the bulbs at the same time you might confuse Sammy Squirrel.

Task#6

Dan Clost Take notes. For example, I noticed that lavender, Diamond Frost euphorbia and sedum thrived in our garden this summer while many others consigned themselves to the composter. Those plants are on my shopping list. By the way, so are pansies. We have two containers in which they bloomed all year long.

Plan your work, spread it out, enjoy what you are doing.

What a beautiful world Life is certainly full of pain.

Yet perhaps the reason we recognize the pain and rage at it is primarily because we also know joy, and have come to expect it. If life weren’t usually sweet, would the pain be as great?

Even those who don’t believe in God would, I think, look at the evidence and conclude that life is indeed supposed to be lovely.

All of these thoughts were going through my head last week on the anniversary of September 11.

When stories of heroism and bravery and generosity hit the airwaves again, it brought tears to my eyes. After all, it is often in the midst of ugliness that beauty is most apparent.

The people who carried a man in a wheelchair down seventy flights of stairs; the firefighters who fought to free a seriously injured woman, and lost their lives in the process; even the generous Newfoundlanders who found their towns inundated with stranded passengers, and took them into their homes—all of these responses show our essential goodness. North America reacted to horrible acts of violence by displaying, instead, beauty.

Then last week, after we

had listened to these stories anew, violence erupted again, as fanatics in the Middle East decided to attack American embassies, killing four in Libya. And once again, they did it in the name of God, under the terrorist flag of Al-Qaeda.

The real work of God is in creating, not destroying.

It’s in bringing forgiveness and healing, not in killing and maiming. It’s in what our soldiers do protecting the innocent and standing up for freedom, rather than what their soldiers do in targeting the innocent and eliminating freedom.

I’m sure these fanatics think that they are doing the work of God, but I’d ask them to open their eyes and look around at the world.

Can a God who made the Grand Canyon, and the coral reef, and a baby’s chuckle be the same God who wants you to kill indiscriminately? Do you really think you’re doing God a favour? Can’t you see that with every act of terror you solidify our determination to never believe what you believe?

I understand the urge to justify one’s culture, or to try to preserve what one

has, or to attack others who seem to have more than you. What I don’t understand is thinking that any of that has anything to do with God. And to those who are tempted to dismiss God altogether because people do such awful things in his name: just look at the beauty in the world. That tells us far more about God than anything that involves machine guns or slitting people’s throats. And perhaps if we all opened our eyes more to beauty, there would be far less horror in this world that we share.

Historical Society looking for old railway photos

By Bill Freeman

EMC News - Hastings Hastings has a rich lumber and milling history but it was also a busy railway centre yet there are surprisingly few photos that document that part of the village’s history.

The Hastings Historical Society is actively looking for old photographs and pictures that provide a glimpse of the railway side of the

area’s history.

“It’s still a rarity to see photos of the Hastings railway station,” says Historical Society member Jim Coveney who is an inveterate and determined collector of historical post cards related to the village and area.

“I’ve been scanning EBay for ten years and I’ve only ever seen one,” Coveney told the Northwest EMC. “We’re still having difficulty finding railway pictures,” he said. “It was very much at the heart of our thriving municipality. Every Saturday night people would come to Hastings to see who was getting off that train. It was a meeting place.”

It is odd that they have

not been able to discover more train-related photos, he admits, given that Hastings was a “well-photographed community.

“Hastings was a great target for photographers and post card people.”

The HHS does have a large collection of photos which has formed part of their popular calendar series and now a well-received set of post cards that feature old photographs of local landmarks and events.

“We’re finding a fairly enthusiastic reception to our own post cards even though this is not an era of postcard sending.”

What they would like is to be able to add some railway photos to that collection.

Wooler Hall Green Space to be turned into a park EMC News - Wooler Playground equipment is to be installed at the Wooler Green Space with funds to be allocated in the 2013 capital program.

“Council approved the demolition of the Wooler Hall due to increasing costs to maintain, and reduced use of this property,” said Chris Angelo, director Public Works and Environmental Services. “The city has decided to create a green space at this location.”

On June 28 about 75 letters were sent to residents in the village of Wooler surrounding the Wooler Hall, requesting their input about whether they would like playground

equipment installed. There were 36 responses notifying the city there were 18 children between the ages of one to 11 and seven over the age of 12, two between 11 and 13 and five over 16 years of age.

There were responses from eight grandparents who indicated that children would benefit from the park.

Some of the responses requested a basketball court that could be converted to an ice rink in winter, a tennis court, skate park, swings and playground equipment, picnic table, benches, flag pole, picnic shelter, garden with benches and plaque, more trees, garbage container and the white pine tree preserved in the memory of

Brighton Legion says thanks

the Women’s Institute.

Angelo noted the cost to include accessible playground equipment is about $60,000 to $80,000. The cost to construct a basketball court is about $40,000 (84

x 50) or $21,000 (42x50).

Neither cost includes demolition of the existing hall or asphalt paving of the parking lot or additional facilities or greenery.

Chuck Naphan com-

mented at the Public Works committee meeting that the demographics of Wooler have changed over the years.

“There are a lot of children now,” he said, “including military families.”

Angelo said the responses indicated that a playground is needed and that the ball diamond is too far to walk.

The road and sidewalk improvements make the playground more accessible.

Ag community celebrates pioneers, leaders

By Richard Turtle

EMC News - Stirling - The Quinte Agricultural Wall of Fame is getting mighty crowded.

Organizers of the Farmtown Park-based commemorative exhibit held their sixth annual induction ceremonies last weekend honouring seven area agriculturalists, including a pair of husband and wife partnerships.

Wall Committee Chair Jim Dalrymple welcomed a crowd of about 100 visiting inductees, family and friends to the museum’s Heritage Village last Sunday afternoon for the ceremonies which were also attended by area members of parliament Daryl Kramp and Rick Norlock who presented inductees with official con-

gratulations from Queen’s Park and Ottawa. Committee members were also a part of the presentation team.

This year’s inductees include Elmer Laver, George Reynolds, Bruce and Edith Murray, Robert and Evelyn Burkitt and John Watson.

Laver began farming in Northumberland County in 1947 and, explained presenter Harry Danford, was a pioneer in the use of fertilizer on potatoes, grain and corn. In 1972 he won the high yield corn competition with a yield of 156 bushels per acre. He also served as a municipal official on Percy Township Council.

Reynolds, who was presented with his honour by committee member Dennis Dick, began farming with

his father in Prince Edward County and later went on to become one of the co-founders of Reynolds Brothers Inc., specializing in canning crops and cash crops. Reynolds Brothers now has over 5,000 acres of crops in the Quinte area as well as 6,000 acres in western Ontario.

The late Bruce and Edith Murray were members of the Ontario and National Ayrshire Associations as well as founding members of the Hastings County Milk Producers, explained presenter Frank Forestell, and as farmers were also committed to the community around them.

Bruce graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College at the University of Guelph and at the height of his career was overseeing the health of 6,000 dairy cows in Rawdon Township.

Robert and Evelyn Burkitt were described by presenter Gayle Grills as community leaders whose influence over a course of decades played a major role in the success of several local organizations and events. Actively involved with the Quinte Exhibition and Hastings County Plowing Match, “they have motivated others to work toward common goals for their community.”

The final inductee of the day was tobacco farmer John Watson (1910-1977) who was a noteworthy first in

And while the crop has declined in popularity, she said, “it had been an integral part of the County agricultural scene.” Watson’s son John, along with family members, accepted the award grateful for the recognition of his late father.

Dalrymple noted that nominations are now being accepted for next year’s ceremonies with a deadline of May 1 and encouraged submissions from the agricultural community. Noting that

In future, photographs will be displayed with the information previously available alongside the image presented in a nearby book, on audio and on the Internet.

In his closing remarks, Barrett also spoke of the importance of recognizing area farmers as well as the importance of the agricultural industry here. And he offered words of congratulations and special thanks to Jim Dalrymple for spearheading the Wall of Fame adding, “there is no better ambassador for agriculture.” The comment drew applause with several members of the audience standing in acknowledgement.
