Symphony to launch new era Entertainment - Belleville - Saturday, May 9, will mark the end of a significant era for Quinte Symphony and the start of a new one. After serving 25 years as director of music and conductor, Maestro Gordon Craig has announced his retirement on the completion of the final concert for this current season. His successor, Dan Tremblay, will be in attendance to formally accept a passing of the baton. Apart from a heritage of pulling the local ensemble into one of the finest sounding orchestras in eastern Ontario, Craig is also one of Canada’s finest clarinetists and has proved that as soloist on several occasions with the local symphony over the years, including the Gershwin Rhapsody in Blue with its famous and challenging clarinet wail at the start. The orchestra has also seen many changes over his years as conductor with only four or five players having been with the orchestra through all those 25 years or a bit more. This final concert for Craig is generously sponsored by the Emil Gauthier Family Foundation in salute to Craig’s many accomplishments in

connection with Quinte Symphony and years of dedicated service. Concert time is Saturday, May 9, at 7 p.m. in Bridge Street Church. For his final concert, Craig has chosen the lively and melodic Stametz Clarinet Concerto which he will perform as soloist. Also on the program are the Dvorak Symphony No.8 and some Canadian content. Tickets at the door are $20 for adults, $15 for seniors and $10 for students, available in advance at the Quinte Arts Council office and Sam the Record Man in the Quinte Mall. Children are admitted free. A number of former musician members of the orchestra are expected to be in the audience, some returning to play with Craig for the last time in the Quinte Symphony. Also significant is the fact that this marks the 55th year of music making by the Quinte Symphony since it was originally formed as the Eastern Ontario Concert Orchestra under the late Stephen Choma. With continued community support, audiences can look forward to many more years of “music you love played by people you know.�

News - Belleville - Belleville Police say the death of a man found in water off Meyer’s Pier on Wednesday, April 22, is not suspicious.

News - Quinte West - Staff Sergeant Dave Tovell of Quinte West detachment of the OPP is moving to Orillia headquarters with a new rank of inspector. “I’ve spent three years here,” said Tovell at the Police Services Board. “It has been a phenomenal community to work with.” Tovell presented the detachment commander’s report to the board in the absence of Inspector Mike Reynolds. He noted the public is invited to two-hour sessions at city hall on Thursdays where the OPP present information on various units and services. The second annual Police and Community Together Program (PACT) started on April 16 at 7 p.m. Tovell reported that calls for service are up in the community but the detachment is taking new initiatives to decrease the calls. Violent and property crimes are up as well as assaults in the bar areas. “Bar checks are up,” he said. “We are trying to bring the assaults down.” He said break and enters are up as well as shoplifting. Police are working with local businesses in “loss prevention practices” to help decrease the incidents. “We have to look at the underlying root of the problem,” he said. “We need to engage the community.” NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING An increase in impaired driving is related to more RIDE checks being taken To seek input with regards to parkland improvements in Sidney Ward with the use of Sidney Ward Reserve which drives the numbers up.

cial rate. “We’re quite happy with this,” Tovell said. Don O’Neill asked why auto thefts were down. Tovell said they have identified a small group that was responsible for the thefts and worked with Belleville police to apprehend the criminals. O’Neill said fraud with the elderly is quite common. He suggested the police deliver information to homes through the VON Meals on Wheels program. “Some are easily victimized,” he said. Tovell said this is a great opportunity to work with partners. “We can’t do it alone,” Tovell said. He noted it has been phenomenal working with various departments in the city to talk about issues, such as problems in the parks. Sergeant Jamie Sullivan reported that the traffic platoon is active and now includes geo-mapping to pinpoint problem areas and put together a traffic action plan. Tovell said this will reduce collisions in intersections. He also noted that distracted driving is still a big factor. The weather has been an issue but now that the roads are drier they should see a reduction. Chair Jim Alyea added that in March the roads were bad seven days a week in slippery condition. The prevalence of 911 hang-up calls is causing considerable pressure on resources. Tovell said it takes two officers about 45 minutes to respond to a 911 call even if there is no emergency. Sally Freeman asked if this spiked when kids are out of school between 3 and 5 p.m. Tovell said it could just be people getting out of work too. Freeman noted that even younger kids are getting cell phones now. Don O’Neill asked if the majority of calls were from cell phones. Tovell said yes, which is a problem trying to locate the caller. “It takes two cars on the back roads off the tower,” he said. “On a landline we know where it is.” Sergeant Sullivan noted that all 911 calls have to be investigated even if the caller says it is not an emergency. Jim Alyea commented that if they ignore the call it could be something serious. Tovell said they are accountable to the community.

Editorial - “What’s emerging is what we need, which is a comprehensive plan, going after the criminal gangs, going after the traffickers, going after the owners of the boats … and stabilising the countries from which these people are coming.” And when you finished “stabilisGwynne Dyer have ing” Syria, Somalia and Libya, overthrowing the Eritrean dictatorship, and ending poverty in West Africa, could you drop by and fix my plumbing? Oh, and Yemen. Fix Yemen too. “These people” are the 1,300 refugees who drowned in the Mediterranean in the past two weeks, the 30,000 who will drown by the end of this year while trying to cross if nothing more is done–and of course, the estimated half million who will make it safely to Italy, Malta or Greece. The speaker was Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron, but he was just one voice in the European Union choir The EU’s leaders were meeting in emergency session because of a public outcry over all the refugees drowning on the crossing between Libya and Italy. These same leaders were responsible for most of the deaths, because last year they ended a very effective Italian Navy search-and-rescue operation and “replaced” it with an EU operation that had a third of the resources and was not supposed to operate more than 50 kilometres off the Italian coast. So now they had to fix it somehow, but they were all aware that their electorates at home still don’t want millions of migrants flooding into the EU, refugees or not. So they did what politicians do in circumstances like these. They came up with a displacement activity. The problem, it turns out, is not refugees fleeing from places like war-torn Syria and Somalia, from cruel dictatorships like Eritrea, and from impoverished parts of West Africa. It is the evil traffickers–the new slave-traders, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi called them–who lure the migrants away from their homes and charge them $2,000 per person for a place on a leaky boat to Europe. Well, of course. Why would anybody want to leave a nice, safe place like Syria or Somalia unless they had been tricked into it by unscrupulous people-smugglers? So if we just break up those criminal gangs, maybe even go into Libyan territorial waters and destroy their boats before they leave the coast, then the

demand for their services will vanish. Everybody will stay home, and the problem will go away. Wait, sorry, we forgot. We have to “stabilise” their countries too. But THEN the problem really will go away, and we’ll all live happily ever after. Are any of the 28 EU national leaders so naive that they believe this garbage? Of course not. So why are they saying it? Because they, like the people who voted for or against them, are torn between a distaste for seeing innocent people die, and a determination that millions of those innocent people cannot come and live in their countries. So they want to hide what the policy is really about, and displace the blame for its bad effects (namely a lot of people drowning) on somebody else. Racist and hypocritical, you say, with a bit of Islamophobia thrown in. You’re right about the hypocrisy, but for a lot of Europeans the problem really is the numbers. There are millions of people living within 1,500 kilometres of the European Union’s borders who would move there tomorrow if they had the chance, and that’s just the desperate ones who are trying to escape from wars, violent anarchy and extreme repression. Count in all the others who would just like a chance to make a decent living in a place where corruption is relatively low and the law is usually enforced, and you are probably into tens of millions of potential migrants. Most of them are not desperate enough to risk the transMediterranean route. Make it easier and safer, however, and lots of them would come too. There are now close to one billion people living within 2,000 kilometres of the EU’s borders. Thanks to some of the world’s highest population growth rates, that will double in the next 30 years, which virtually guarantees that there will be more civil wars, more failed states and even more refugees. And that’s before you factor in the impact of climate change in the subtropics. The EU’s own population is about 650 million, and it is not growing. So there is deep concern among EU leaders (though many of them don’t want to say it in public) that in ten or twenty years they will be facing illegal migration so massive that it would fundamentally change the cultural identity of European countries. They want to get the new, much tougher policy towards refugees in place now, before the refugees taking the sea route to Europe start coming in even greater numbers, but they don’t want to take responsibility for the deaths that will happen as a result. How to shift the blame? Try this. “It’s not our fault that all those poor people are dying at sea; it’s the fault of the evil people-smugglers.”

It’s tax time. Stop complaining and just pay ’em By Stephen Petrick
 Editorial - April is over. Have you filed your income taxes yet?
If you’re like my wife and I the answer is either “Just got ’em done” or “no.” In an era where most adults have evolving careers and changing families, filing taxes has become complicated. As we head into spring, we’re almost always looking for more than one T4 from various employers we’ve had over the past year, trying to track education-related expenses and figuring out where we stored various miscellaneous receipts.
 Then we think about the perplexing questions to ask our tax guy: Can I write off guitar strings if I was hired to give private lessons? Do tickets to a Toopey and Binoo show count as child care? If I’m writing a Master’s thesis on human misery, can I claim my Toronto Maple Leafs tickets as a research expense?
 I’m no expert on taxes, but my advice to others, based on experience, is to ask your employer to overtax you through the year just to be safe, be anal about keeping receipts and just pay a professional to do your taxes. That way you’re more than likely to get a return at the end. (Unless you’re a rich business tycoon). This world is challenging and cruel so no one should feel guilty about cutting every corner they possibly can to keep as much of their hard-earned money.
 But, when it’s all said and done, I’m also a big believer in refraining from whining about taxes all year long. While I wouldn’t turn down a tax cut if it’s offered to me, I also accept that they’re necessary and our progressive system of taxing people based on what they can afford to pay, makes us one

of the greatest countries in the world.
I’ve always been creeped out by think-tanks like the Fraser Institute which want to privatize everything, and those signs you see on some country roads that say “this land is my land, back off government.” Our tax dollars pay for the roads we drive to work every day, for the schools that raise our children and for the hospitals where our loved ones receive care. And based on the parking fees you have to pay to enter these hospitals, evidently our tax dollars aren’t covering enough.
 It’s somewhat fitting that both the federal and provincial governments released their yearly budgets last week, just days before the deadline for most people to file their income tax. The federal government announced it had finally achieved a balanced budget, meaning that a deficit once as high as $50 billion no longer exists. The Ontario government took measures to reduce its deficit, but it still exists, at around the $10.9 billion mark.
One could argue–well, I suppose a lot of people argue– that these deficits are the result of poor fiscal management. But they also suggest that in recent years, the tax dollars we’ve collectively paid, have not nearly equalled the cost of the types of government services we’ve come to expect.
 It’s been said that in life there are two certain things: death and taxes. (Or wait, maybe it’s three things; the third being the Leafs not winning the Stanley Cup.) But the death of our tax system would mean the death of the society we know. When tax season rolls around,
it’s best to shut up and pay them, no matter how complicated or frustrating they’ve become.

Duncan Armstrong asked about lighting at the docks. Grills said the facilities manager and electrical contractor will be putting beacons at the end. Armstrong asked about the website. Grills said the city website will have a link to <trentportmarina.ca>. Jamie Fellows asked if there are any alternative facilities. Grills said Bob Forder is contracting temporary trailers with lounge areas. Fellows asked about charging rates. Grills said most preregistered boaters have paid in full. The costs will be prorated. Fellows asked if the facility is not open until July, would they be given it free? Mayor Jim Harrison said they are not giving anything away for free. Fellows also asked about security. Grills said the electrical contractor is taking care of that by May 16. Mayor Harrison conďŹ rmed there are penalty clauses with the contractors for the building.

News - Quinte West - Lisa Grills, supervisor of tourism and special events, gave an update on the marina to the Economic Development and Revitalization Committee. She said the next step after installing the docks is electrical and plumbing. “The building is somewhat delayed,â€? she added. “It is not progressing as well as we had hoped.â€? She said a contingency plan is to offer temporary services to the boaters so their immediate needs, washrooms, lounge, etc. are met. The building will be fenced off but access to the docks will be available to the boaters. The grand opening scheduled for June 20 will be delayed. They want to make sure it is completely ďŹ nished until it is showcased to the public. No date has been chosen. She said the website is performing well and shows increase in users. “People are interested,â€? she said.

Marina docks are in after long, windy journey By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - The weather could not have been worse. The docks for the Trent Port Marina were brought by tugboat from Gananoque but the wind and high waves made it slow going. They finally arrived late April 20. “They’re being installed today,� said tourism supervisor Lisa Grills on April 21. “People can put their boat in on the long weekend of May 15.� She said as soon as the docks are in, services with electrical and plumbing will be added. The building will not yet be completed so temporary services will be installed. “This is so exiting,� Grills said. “I can look out my window at city hall and see the marina. It’s

huge!� She said staff come and take a look to watch the progress. “It’s really neat,� she said with a smile. Grills added that contrary to some rumours, no one has cancelled their bookings. There are currently 120 bookings for the season which is at 70 per cent capacity. “That’s very positive,� she said. CAO Charlie Murphy said there have been delays working with the contractor on the building and an amended schedule for completion has been worked out with city hall. A temporary operations centre has been set up for a limited time. “The main problem has been the weather,� he said. “That’s obvious.� He guaranteed the marina would be completed “this year.�

Marina operator Craig Carter is constantly watching the progress. He was the Fraser Park Marina operator for 16 years with his wife Sandra. “Everything is fine,â€? he said, watching the progress at the marina. “The docks are in today. That’s the main thing. That’s what the boaters want.â€? He noted that Robert Patrick Marina is permanently closed now to make way for a wakeboarding site and Fraser Park will be operated by summer students for refuelling and pumpouts. “We can’t have three marinas,â€? he said. The website at <trentportmarina.ca> details some of the problems with installing the docks. Following a meeting with Kehoe Marine, the primary contractor Work continues on the building at the Trent Port Marina which has been delayed for two months. Photo: Kate Everson for the construction of the floating docks and breakwaters, the city was presented with a revised schedule. The schedule of all 212 slips is still on track for full installation and all dock services before the May long weekend. The south breakwater will also be completely installed by the May holiday weekend to provide protection to boats. Recent design alterations on the north and east breakwaters has delayed casting of the concrete modules, and both of these breakwaters will now be installed by the end of June. While this is a delay of approximately six weeks for the installation of these breakwaters, the design changes were required in order to satisfy the city that the structural integrity of the breakwater units was sufficient for the location. Both contractor Kehoe Marine and the city’s engineer have confirmed that the marina can be operational with only the south breakwater installed. Docks D and F will offer adequate protection until breakwater installation is complete. The boaters assigned to outside slips on Docks D and F will temporarily be assigned an alternative interior slip with identical services until the east breakwater is installed in June.Â

Upstairs was the Quinte Women’s Show with 25 vendors showcasing products geared toward women. It even included a fashion show and demonstrations of bellydancing and Zumba. Little Hammers were busy building birdhouses, thanks to Rona and Property Guys. Ben and Isaac Snider volunteered to show the children how to hammer a nail without banging their fingers! Jennifer Rushlow was busy promoting the city with her extensive booth on everything happening in Quinte West. Robin Pilon had lots of people eyeing her bright kayaks, while paddler Harold Tripp was busy promoting the Kiwanis Club in the front lobby. “I would rather be paddling,” Tripp said. “The water is smooth as glass today.” Ivan Demine and Ashleigh Wiersma had company at the Trenton Pet Hospital booth. Ruslan, a King Charles spaniel was happy to be there and so was the tiny Mila, a pet rescue spaniel. “She was rescued from life in a cage,” Wiersma explained. “A client adopted her. She is so happy to be around people now. It has been quite a difference.” Chamber president Dave Fairfield was at one of the entrances selling admission tickets for $3 and a chance to win the $1,000 Home Show Bucks along with many other great prizes. “Take my picture!” he said with a smile.

Trenton Rowing and Paddling Club had a display of kayaks with members Gwen Broomfield, Darren Cole, Robin Pilon and James McMullen. Little Hammers’ Joy Radke had help from Pam Snider in making a bird house.

Ivan Demine and Ashleigh Wiersma at the Trenton Pet Hospital booth had Ruslan and Mila for company.

Trent Severn Waterway changes highlighted

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - A presentation to the Economic Development and Revitalization Committee was made by Jewell Cunningham, director of Ontario Waterways. “We are focusing on increasing revenue,� Cunningham said. “Revenue from boat traffic on the Trent Severn Waterway [TSW] will be reinvested in the system.� She said they are looking for ways to increase visits along the waterway such as encouraging new markets and motorized and non-motorized vessels. She noted that they have increased the hours

the locks are open, after a reduction in 2012. “We have put the 112 hours back,� she said. “We are encouraging boaters to come back.� She noted that lockmasters and dedicated staff will be at each lock station, cancelling the need for mobile crews to go from lock to lock. Cunningham said there will be a series of announcements from MPs on extra funding in the TSW and Rideau Canal. “There are a number of projects over the next five years,� she added. “One project is to refurbish

the Healey Falls station with new hydraulics. Maintenance at lock stations will be completed. There is also a new ‘two for one’ promotion to increase boater visits and kick-start spring.� Cunningham noted that the Rideau has a business with boat tour operators that includes overnight stays in a full facility tent on the lock station grounds. They are also working with private companies to provide ice and firewood for campers. “We recognize the Trent Severn as an attraction,� she said. “It is a national historic site and gives us the opportunity to work

together.� Mayor Jim Harrison asked if the system includes the Murray Canal. Cunningham said that is part of the Trent Severn. Harrison asked if there would be any consideration for the two-lane bridge over the Murray Canal at County Road 64. Last year Parks Canada had proposed replacing it with a one-lane bridge. Cunningham said there has been a lot of feedback here about the bridge. “I am optimistic we will hear further information in the next two weeks,� she said.

Harrison said the city has put funds in the budget for the entranceway on both sides of the bridge. Cunningham said there is a limitation in funding and she is not sure of the future of the bridge. Doug Whitney asked if there will be anything done with lock stations in this area. Cunningham said they have identified some work to be done. The Trenton Lock Station will be reopened with tourist information. Duncan Armstrong said boater traffic decreased last year with the

cutbacks at the locks. He asked if public pressure had swayed Parks Canada to change direction. Cunningham said the outcry certainly helped. She said Parks Canada is trying to be sustainable, but recognizes that now it is time to turn in a positive direction. It will be managed differently. Glenn Kozak asked if the committee is satisfied with the report. He noted that the $12-million marina is an investment dependent on boating traffic. “Flying lockmasters are not quite tenable,� he said.

Volunteers will also be busy at Centennial Park on Canada Day and the ScottishIrish festival in September. “We have new members signing up daily,� he said. “There are a lot of drop-ins too. We give out maps of the city.� He said members of the office staff also do downtown walkabouts every day. Crime Watch is busy patrolling 824 kilometres of roads in Quinte West. Volunteers also participate in the Lock-It-Or-Lose-It campaign.

Trumley said they have put up posters about the 211 calls with information on how it should be used instead of 911 for non-emergencies. Jim Alyea said he is glad they have a lot of new recruits. Tovell said it is nice to see volunteers reporting in. “It’s a great partnership,� he said. Chuck O’Malley commented, “Community Policing has cranked it up a notch. This is a team effort. It will help with our goals and objectives.�

News - Quinte West - The OPP detachment is working with its partners in the Auxiliary Unit as well as Community Policing. “Quinte West OPP Auxiliary Unit contributed 220 volunteer hours in the first quarter of 2015,� reported Staff Sergeant Dave Tovell at the Police Services Board. He said they have been patrolling the community on foot educating the public about the provincial Lock-It-Or-Lose-It campaign. This is about leaving vehicles unlocked. “Thefts from vehicles are crimes of opportunity,� Tovell said. “This can easily be prevented by locking vehicles.� The auxiliary has been speaking with shoppers and leaving campaign brochures on windshields of those they identify as being at risk of being entered. The auxiliary has ten members and is looking for four more. Interested applicants can apply online at <opp.ca> with the next testing this summer. Bill Trumley, president of Community Policing, said their volunteers have also been very busy. Ten schools are signed up for Bike Rodeos starting in May. “It’s the same old seniors doing them,� he added.

News - Quinte West - A request from Kotsovos Group to relocate three to five docks from the vacant Robert Patrick Marina to RiverFront Square is being considered by staff. “These docks would be in place for the 2016 boating season,” noted Linda Lisle, manager of Economic Development and Tourism Services. Fred Kuypers asked why they would allow free docking that competes with the Trent Port Marina. He pointed out there are no more free docks at the Fraser Park Marina so why would they be allowed here?

Molly Brant an unexpected Canadian heroine for a book

Peggy Dymond Leavey has just had her book on Molly Brant published. Photo: Kate Everson By Kate Everson

Lifestyles - Quinte West - Peggy Dymond Leavey has just published her 13th book. Molly Brant, Mohawk Loyalist and Dip-

lomat is a Quest Biography published by Dundurn in Toronto. “Molly was the oldest sister of Joseph Brant,â€? Peggy explains from her Quinte West home. “She was instrumental in keeping her people on the side of the British during the American Revolution.â€? Molly Brant was a Mohawk, born in 1736 in the province of New York. She became the consort of Sir William Johnson, of Anglo-Irish descent and one of the wealthiest men in America at the time. “She must have been very beautiful,â€? Peggy notes. She adds there are no photographs of Molly, just a statue of her in Kingston where she lived with her eight children after she ed the United States, going ďŹ rst to Niagara. Peggy had to imagine what she looked like. “I envisioned her with a very regal bearing,â€? she said. All she has are some letters written by Molly. She researched the Lennox and Addington museum archives and at Queen’s University. She also met the

archeologist who dug up the site where Molly lived in the Mohawk Valley in New York state. Molly wore Mohawk garb most of the time and was a very gracious host for events held by Sir William Johnson. Visitors called her “Brown Lady Johnson.� All of her eight children married into the upper class of society and did very well in life. She had two sons and six daughters. Her oldest son was killed in the American Revolution. “They celebrated Molly Brant Day in Kingston in 1996 on the 200th anniversary of her death,� Peggy said. “It was a Native celebration with a tobacco burning ceremony. This all started 200 years later.� Peggy said she has learned a lot about the plight of the aboriginals from her research on Molly Brant. She took a oneday-a-week course for several weeks at Loyalist College on Aboriginal Awareness and a has a lot of respect for the First Nations people. “I love the way they don’t brag and they don’t butt in,� she said. “They are very

considerate.â€? She has included some of their healing medicines and sacred ceremonies in the book. Peggy has also written books on Mary Pickford and Laura Secord as part of the Quest Biography series. She chose Molly Brant off a list of possible story ideas provided by Dundurn publishing. Peggy has written many children’s books, ďŹ rst published by Napoleon which

was later purchased by Dundurn. A book launch will be held May 2 at Lighthouse Books in Brighton from noon to 2 p.m. “It’s a chance to meet the author and have a book signed,� she said. “Molly Brant� will also be available at J&B Books in Trenton, Chapters in Belleville and online through <dundurn. com> or order it from Amazon. Peggy is on Facebook both as an author and connection for family and friends.

News - Quinte West - Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board is excited about the facility renewal advancements being made to create outstanding learning environments in our district. This is to provide an update on construction of the new Trenton elementary school. It will bring together students from Breadner Elementary School, College Street Public School and Queen Elizabeth Public School. “We are very fortunate to have a new, modern learning facility being built in the Trenton community. Our new Trenton elementary school, Kindergarten to Grade 8, will be a state-of-the-art learning environment for students, families, employees and our community partners,� said Mandy Savery-Whiteway, Director of Education. The new Trenton elementary school will be built on the exact location of the existing Queen Elizabeth Public School. In order for that to happen, Queen Elizabeth Public School will close as of June 30, 2015. The school will be demolished during July and August 2015. Construction is scheduled to begin in September 2015. The proposed opening date for the new Trenton elementary school is January 2017. The following changes will be in place for September 2015.

where their money is going. Despite the new form, the camp will, in many ways, have the same feel as a Bulls-operated camp. Former Bulls Adam Bignell, Justin Lemcke and Nick Pageau are committed to return and act as instructors, Grimes said. While having active Bulls players involved was a key selling point in the past, Grimes sees this and future camps as an opportunity to bring Bulls alumni back into town and keep the team’s legacy alive in the city. Grimes first announced that the camps would continue via a message on the Bulls website, <www.bellevillebulls.com>. He spoke about how he and his wife Kim, who also has extensive experience in the business of hockey, are connected to the community, and want to remain in Belleville. Their son, Dixon, is also connected to the community, as he’s a goalie with Quinte Red Devils AAA Peewee team. While the past few months, have been an emotional time for his family, they’re committed to keeping the camps going. “We love what the hockey camps offer young hockey players,” Grimes wrote on the website. “They improve in every aspect of the game, work with professional coaches, Belleville Bulls alumni/players and young hockey leaders in our community, and they leave camp completely ready to start their season loving

the game of hockey.” As for Grimes’ coaching future, he hopes to remain involved in the OHL. Former Bulls head coach and general manager George Burnett recently accepted an offer to resume the same role in Hamilton, but no decisions have been made on the role of assistant coaches, a delay that likely has something to do with the domino effect of teams moving. (The Bulls were purchased by a Hamilton businessman who was losing the American Hockey League’s Hamilton Bulldogs to relocation.) Grimes said he’s keeping an eye on opportunities that may arise, not just in Hamilton, but anywhere in the league and may end up doing a fair bit of commuting next year, as his family will still be in Belleville. “This is a very unique situation,” Grimes said. “I have to have faith that whatever happens will happen.” But he says the opportunity to take over the Bulls camps has been a “very pleasant distraction” at an uncertain time. He also feels it’s a nice story for the community, still reeling from the loss of the franchise. “We just want to get this one completed and we’ll see where it goes from there,” Grimes said. “It’s nice to know this is one aspect that we’re not losing.” More information on the camps can be found at <www. bellevillebulls.com>.

to say now that, with support from the city and the outgoing ownership group, the camps are being prepared just as they always have. But, obviously, if they are to remain in Belleville over the long term–as he hopes–they’ll take place in a different form. “I know that the community didn’t want to see these camps go, based on the co-operation I’ve received,” said Grimes. The camps planned for this year take place over three weeks. They include: August 3 to 7: A camp for AAA goalies run by Sebastien Farrese; a new camp for AAA defencemen run by Grimes. August 10 to 14: A Tyke learnto play camp; a full-day goalie camp run by Farrese; an adult camp for recreational players 19 and over.

Hike for a cause, hike for Hospice

Events - Belleville - On May 3, thousands of Canadians from across the country will walk in celebration and remembrance to kick off National Hospice Palliative Care Week, a one-week national campaign focused on raising awareness about hospice palliative care, and recognizing the achievements of hospices in Canada. Hospice Quinte invites the public to come out to Hike for Hospice at West Zwick’s Island Park and enjoy a barbecue lunch, great music and fun family activities while hiking for a great cause from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. People are encouraged to gather

their friends, family, church group or social club and walk up to five kilometres through the waterfront trail. Registrations can be gathered online or by downloading our pledge form at <www.hospice-quinte.ca>. Pledge forms can also be picked up at the Hospice Quinte Centre at 225 Dundas Street East in Belleville. “On behalf of the entire staff I invite the community to come together on May 3 to celebrate the incredible work done by Hospice Quinte,” says Community Relations and Fund Development Co-ordinator Rachel Pearsall. Pearsall continued, “One hundred per cent of the funds raised

through this event will remain local and will go toward further enhancing our programs and services so we can reach more people in need of support.” Dr. Jennifer Webster says, “Hospice Quinte provides support for those with a life-limiting illness and their families, and I am immensely proud of the work we do. I am thrilled to be the honorary chair for Hike for Hospice and extend an enthusiastic welcome to all who wish to join us in a fun, active, day in support of our hospice!” In the last fiscal year, The Regional Hospice of Quinte provided

13,000 hours of hospice care in the community. The volunteer-based organization has 135 volunteers and offers a wide range of programing including children’s grief and bereavement programs and a day program for members living with a life-altering illness. Hospice Quinte has approximately 400 clients in the community who depend on the service it provides, all at no charge to the patient or the family. Hike for Hospice Quinte will help provide high-quality, hospice palliative care and support for people living with life-threatening illness, and their loved ones, at no charge.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Thoughtless people ruin it for the rest of us Enough with the useless MP flyers

Dear Editor, Re: Dog dirt in Centennial Park. I totally agree with Mrs. Marsh. It is ridiculous that some people are so thoughtless about picking up after their dogs. Some use the excuse that there are no garbage cans around

the park. There are garbage cans at the parking lot entrances and I don’t feel it’s a great imposition to carry a bag with your animal droppings to where a can is located. As always, a few ruin it for the many. I have personally confronted people if I see

their dog has relieved itself and they have no intention of picking it up. I always carry extra “poop” bags and offer them one if they use another favourite excuse of not having a bag with them. This is not always met with appreciation and I have been told

what to do with myself or to mind my own business but I will continue to confront these people. We have a beautiful park and it should be able to be enjoyed by everyone. Patricia DesCote, Carrying Place

Dear Editor, Finally something that all Brighton citizens can support. A lobby group called Our TMH (Trenton Memorial Hospital) has been formed to try and retain services at our local hospital. Emergency services are essential and must be maintained. Residents who do not have a family doctor have little choice but to use the emergency services since after-hours clinics are no longer available. Health funding issues are both complex and political. Funding from the Ontario Ministry of Health goes to

the southeast LHIN. This body decides how much is transferred to the Quinte Health Care board. This board then allocates how the money is divided among the four Quinte hospitals. Since the opening of TMH in 1951, the town of Brighton, numerous service clubs and many individuals have donated very, very generously to improve this facility. We do not want to lose it now. Our TMH NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT. Find us on Facebook or visit us <infn@ourtmh. com>. Doug Cheer, Brighton

Dear Editor, I agree whole-heartedly with Ken Leavens, in his “Dear Member of Parliament” letter. These stupid, almost weekly, opinion-seeking brochures are a blatant waste of taxpayers’ dollars. If the MPs were doing a good job, they wouldn’t need constant affirmation that they are “on the right track.” What I’d like to know is how many thousands of these informationseeking brochures are

Dear Editor, In the past four years I have had to access our medical system four times for both scheduled and unscheduled surgery. On all occasions, from the Brighton Family Health Team, to Trenton Memorial Hospital, to Belleville General and the hospitals in Kingston, the care has been of the highest professionalism, quality and compassion. There are, of course, places for criticism and opportunities for improvements, some of which I have experienced. However, sometimes we

need to give thanks for what works right. On the whole, we are blessed to live in an amazing country. My most recent need for health care began in the early hours of Wednesday, April 15, and my family and I would like to extend a special thanks to the staff at TMH, especially the ER for their knowledgeable and compassionate care. I never would have made it to Belleville. Without that hospital and its ER where it is, I would probably be dead. Peter Stewart, Brighton

Former Brighton Highlander now the piper for sentries at war memorial By John Campbell

News - Ottawa - Every hour between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. the two sentries at the National War Memorial in Ottawa leave their post, and another pair takes their place. The sentries “reinforce Canada’s commitment to remember and honour all of those who have served,” says Lieutenant David Lewis, public affairs officer for the National Sentry Program at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The tomb, which holds the remains an unidentified Canadian soldier who died in France during World War I, “is our most iconic and visible reminder of the service and sacrifice of members of our military.” The ceremonial changing of the sentries is accompanied by the playing of marches on the bagpipes. That duty is currently being handled by a former member of the award-winning Brighton Legion Highlanders, Corporal Conor Cooper, who’s now a member of The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders of Canada. “I joined the military to serve Canada and as a musician to play an important ceremonial role within the army,” Cooper said in an article prepared by Lewis for local distribution. Being able to represent his regiment at the National War Memorial in Ottawa “is a great honour. “This experience has really helped me gain a deeper respect and admiration for those who have served and sacrificed for this country.” Members of the Royal Canadian Navy, the Canadian Army, and the Royal Canadian Air Force are selected to be sentries for a four-week rotation, Lewis said in an interview, but “pipers Corporal Conor Cooper, of Brighton, has been piping in and out sentries at the National War Memorial in Ottawa since the National Sentry Program resumed operations earlier this month. Here he escorts are on a little different schedule.” the changing of the sentries at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Photo: Lieutenant David Lewis

“Think twice before you flush” message of student proposal

By John Campbell

News - Brighton - The next time you’re about to toss some crumpled up facial tissue or paper towel in the toilet, reconsider. “Think twice before you flush,” says Holly Tetzlaff. “Toilets are not garbage cans.” But that’s how people use them, said the Grade 9 student at East Northumberland Secondary School, sending cat litter, medicine, dental floss, and grease down the tube, along with facial tissue and paper towels. Personal wipes alone are costing Canadian taxpayers $250 million a year because they clog the sewers, according to the Municipal Enforcement Sewer Use Group. “Human waste and toilet paper are the only items that should be flushed,” said Tetzlaff, who has made it her goal “to develop good lifelong flushing habits” among children in primary grades that will also set a good example for families to follow at home. The five people judging the fifth annual Caring For Our Watersheds competition thought so highly of her proposed educational campaign they awarded her

first place among the six finalists and the top prize of $1,000. Tetzlaff said she planned to make a red fish logo, signifying the link between household wastewater, treatment plants and the watershed, as a reminder to people to think before they flush. She included a video in her presentation at the competition final held April 22 at the Timber Ridge Golf Course that showed how quickly toilet tissue disintegrates in water, unlike the other paper products and dental floss. A total of 38 proposals from 82 students were received from six participating schools: Kent Public School, St. Mary’s Catholic Elementary School, Brighton Public School, Murray Centennial Public School, Roseneath Centennial Public School, and ENSS. The competition was sponsored by Lower Trent Conservation and Agrium Inc., which again provided the funding for prize money as well $10,000 to implement the student finalists’ ideas. The students’ schools also received money that matched what they won. Others to place in the top six were: second - Alyssa West, Josee Stephens, St. Mary’s, $900; third - Mason Demczyna,

Max Towers, Murray Centennial, $800; fourth - Kole Tromp, Murray Centennial, $700; fifth - Mindy Morrison, Scarlett Cole, Murray Centennial, $600; sixth Melissa Lajoie, Makayla Mior, Chloe Weidenborner, Murray Centennial, $500. Lower Trent CAO Glenda Rodgers explained Caring For Our Watersheds is an international program where students from Canada, the United States, Argentina and Australia research their local watershed, identify environmental concerns, and come up with realistic solutions that can be implemented. Agrium, which produces and distributes fertilizers and agricultural products worldwide, sponsors the youth education program because it understands “that taking care of the world requires more than simply talking about it; it calls for stewardship and a lighter footprint.” Campbellford native Mike Wilson was president and CEO of Agrium when he asked Lower Trent to introduce the program locally, cutting a personal cheque for $50,000 to run it for four years. He donated another $15,000 “so that we could run the program again this year and has offered matching funds for any funding we can raise to run the program for two

more years,” Rodgers said. “Hopefully after that, we will be self-sufficient. We have initiated a fundraising program, so please spread the word.” Student proposals that have been implemented in the past include battery

drop off boxes and recycling cans in Brighton, shoreline planting in Hastings, and dog waste bag dispensers across the watershed. “We’ve seen less dog waste around so they are working,” Rodgers said.

Sentry program in its second year Continued from page B1

Some remain for the summer while others, like the 23-yearold Cooper, are there for just a month. This is the second year for the National Sentry Program, which officially started last August. Cooper, who graduated from East Northumberland Secondary School in 2009, went to Brock University and then University of Western Ontario for graduate studies in music performance. He joined the reserves two years ago, after passing an audition. He learned the basics of being a soldier and was then assigned a ceremonial guard

role. “It’s a very important duty, escorting sentries to the tomb,” he said. “There’s so much piping history in the military, from the Victoria Cross winners to pipers who have led troops into battle. It’s obviously a great privilege to be a part of it.” Cooper, the son of Gary and Lori Cooper in Brighton, said the experience has been “very enjoyable” and he’s met a lot of people. He will continue with the military for the summer; after that, it’s on to “the great job hunt.” Lewis said there’s been no change in the sentries’ routine

since last October 22 when Corporal Nathan Cirillo, 24, was fatally shot while on honorary guard at the National War Memorial. Cirillo was also a reservist with the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. His killer, Michael ZehafBibeau, was shot to death hours later in an exchange of gunfire inside the main Parliament building. Lewis said stanchions like those seen in a bank have been added “to keep the public back a little bit” and the Ottawa police force does “have a presence on the plaza where the memorial” is that it didn’t have before.

Campbellford Lioness Club hosts 15th annual community health forum services the organization provides. Based in Peterborough the centre is one of 14 CCACs that work in communities across Ontario to connect people with quality in-home and community-based health care. “We make sure our patients receive the care they need when they need it,” she said. “The best gift you can give your family is to let them know what you would like … your life can change on a dime,” she added. The Central East CCAC has seven branches including one in Campbellford. The third speaker was Kim Barry, regional manager for Central East and Thunder Bay family support services with ALS Canada. Travelling from Oshawa for the forum she talked about the emotional and financial stressors people face when coping with ALS. “There are 17 clients in this community,” she noted. “We provide support for those clients on their journey.” Barry talked about the ALS fundraising walk to be held in Peterborough on May 9. “Fifty per cent of our walk money goes to client services,” she said. These services include providing critical medical equipment that can cost thousands of dollars.

“Our goal is that ALS is no longer a terminal illness but a treatable illness,” she said. “When you get a disease like this all your choices are taken away from you. We want to give people hope.” A question and answer session followed. Eileen Perkins, whose first husband Alan Cole died of the disease at the age of 51, less than four years after his diagnosis, asked about concussions as a contributing factor. Her husband was a cyclist who represented Canada in the Commonwealth Games in Vancouver. Dr. Finlayson replied that concussions might be a risk factor but other factors also include military service and exposure to pesticides. “Concussions may have some association with ALS but it is not very strong,” she said A highlight was a $500 cheque presentation to ALS by the Lioness Club. Linda Milne, whose sister-in-law Marlene Milne died of ALS, was included in the ceremony and she will be participating in the ALS walk. The cheque was presented in memory of Marlene Milne and Bryce Chrysler, who also died recently of ALS and whose family was also in the audience. “Bryce raised a lot of money for ALS,” said his mom, Doreen Holmden.

News - Campbellford - A rare disease that was the focus of the fundraising “ice bucket challenge” which went viral last year and resulted in an unexpected $17.1 million windfall for ALS Canada, was the subject of the 15th annual community health forum hosted recently by the Campbellford Lioness Club. Fifty-two people attended the evening event which featured three guest speakers who talked about amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), often referred to as Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Dr. Olga Finlayson, a neurologist at Peterborough Regional Health Centre for the past two years, was the keynote speaker. In a PowerPoint presentation she provided information about the disease, symptoms and progression, diagnosis and treatment. The prevalence of ALS is four in 100,000 population, noted Finlayson. “I have made, unfortunately, several diagnoses of ALS,” Finlayson told the Trent Hills Independent. “This disease is not very common but it is pretty devastating so it is good to make people familiar with this and give them information.” Sheri McKeen, community education and outreach representative with the Central East Community Care Access Centre (CECCAC), talked about the

The Good Earth: A cedar by another name

Dan Clost By Dan Clost

Lifestyles - When is a cedar not a cedar? When it’s a thuja (thoo yah), of course. We just call it a cedar. Here is the Oxford Dictionary’s definition of a thuja: An evergreen coniferous tree of a genus that includes the western red cedar. Dirr’s Manual of Woody Landscape Plants has an extensive explanation of the genus as well as a very long list of cultivars. While “cedar” is the most commonly used term, e.g. black cedar, white cedar, most architectural drawings, nursery order sheets, etc. will use

the term “thuja.” There are six genera, two native to North America and four to eastern Asia. The story goes that when our forebears arrived on this continent, thuja was completely unknown to them so they named it after the plant they thought it most resembled, cedar. We can handle that idea fairly easily, Gentle Reader, but it is what has happened over the years that has caused many a mix-up. We understand that white cedar is really not a cedar and we can easily wrap our minds around the idea that western red cedar is, also, not a cedar. In fact, it is Thuja plicata. What do you think is the specific epithet for eastern red cedar? If you thought T. rubra I’d give you bonus points but you’d be wrong. It actually is Juniperus virginiana. Yep, it is not a cedar, it is not even a thuja, it is a juniper! It’s a wonder that our forebears didn’t call crows, ravens, starlings and blackbirds, all blackbirds. I have one more bit of confusing information to toss into the mix. Eastern white cedar is Thuja “occidentalis.” We

have that cleared up; but, “occident” is the Latin word for “west.” So how come western red cedar isn’t called T. occidentalis? A long time ago, somebody asked me how I could remember all of those incredibly long “Latin” names for the plants. While most of the naming boffins will take umbrage with me for this because they believe the taxonomy makes perfect sense (to them), I confess that I learned each name individually in self-defense. Whatever we want to call them, thujas are the most popular choice for a coniferous hedge. T. occidentalis, white cedar, prefers shallow moist soils usually with a limestone base and, oddly enough, sphagnum bogs. “Oddly enough” because the latter is acidic and limestone is at the other end of the pH spectrum. That noted, this adaptable chappie will grow just about anywhere it is planted as long as it has enough water and food. Farrar’s book, Trees In Canada, lists companion trees as silver maple, eastern white pine, eastern hemlock, black ash, yellow birch and

white elm. (Yes I did note the five colours mentioned in those names but if you think I’m going to discuss them now, you’ve got another think coming, GR!) This is one of the most useful aspects of Trees in Canada. By looking at the companion plants you get a compatible ensemble to fill out a design. Not only does this tell you which plants perform well in the same conditions, it allows you to design for a particular environment, which ultimately husbands natural resources. When properties were much larger than most are now, there was plenty of room for a white cedar hedge. As a species, these trees would top 60 feet and spread out 15 feet. Modernday conditions, urban or suburban environment, compacted and lifeless soils, and city pollution, has knocked them down a titch to about 45 feet. Over the past decades, two cultivars have gained prominence. Thuja occidentalis “Nigra,” with its darker colouring, and which tops out around 25 feet and

between five and ten feet wide, is slowly replacing the old standby–at least on the plant lists of designers. T. occidentalis “Pyramidalis” does stretch up to 30 feet but only grows around six feet wide. Both are excellent substitutions for old whitey. However, with property lots becoming much smaller, especially in the situation of attached units with “bull pens” instead of backyards, there are an additional two cultivars to consider. “Holmstrup” is the more affordable, with a height and spread of eight feet by three feet. Degroot’s spire will squeeze into a nine-foot by two-foot space (without pruning), has very interesting fern-like leaves but does have sticker shock. However, it’s like buying tools where the maxim is, “Buy the best you can afford.” Degroot’s is the best. Emerald cedars, T.occidentalis “Smaragd,” aka emerald cedar, should be considered a specimen tree at best with requirements similar to a Japanese maple. It is easily the most overused and misused thuja.

Crawford: Family of Champions book launch and movie screening to be held at Empire Theatre

The Crawford family, seen in this 1964 family photo, is the subject of Crawford: Family of Champions, a film and book produced by Aaron Bell. Photo: Submitted

Entertainment - Belleville For more than half a century, the Crawford family name has been synonymous with the City

of Belleville. Floyd Crawford helped put Belleville on the international hockey map when he captained the Belleville

McFarlands to the World Hockey Championship in 1959. Three of his nine children went on to play in the National Hockey League and all of them made significant contributions to the city on and off the ice. Crawford: Family of Champions is the book and DVD written and produced by local author and filmmaker Aaron Bell. It tells the story of the Crawford family, including Marc Crawford’s incredible Stanley Cup win with the Colorado Avalanche and Lou Crawford guiding his hometown Belleville Bulls to their only Ontario Hockey League championship. The book and DVD will be officially released during a special screening event at the Empire

Theatre in downtown Belleville on Thursday, May 14, starting at 7:30 p.m. Several members of the Crawford family will be in attendance at the event and will participate in a question and answer session after the viewing of the film. “This is a great opportunity for us to celebrate the Crawford family and the many contributions that they have made to our community,” Bell said. “I’m very proud to have been given the opportunity to help tell their remarkable story and how they helped shape the spirit of our community.” Crawford: Family of Champions was originally produced to be screened at Belleville’s Downtown

DocFest in February. The screening at the Belleville Library was completely full and many people were turned away at the door. “We knew then that we needed to show the movie again–ideally at the Empire Theatre, where everyone that wanted to enjoy the film would be able to,” Bell said. “This event will allow us to do that as well as officially launch the book and DVD.” The screening and DVD will include an updated version of the movie from the one that was screened at Downtown DocFest. There is an additional 20 minutes of interviews and footage in this edition that will provide viewers with even more insight into the incredible story

of the Crawford family. The book includes many additional stories that aren’t in the film. Pre-orders of the book and DVD are available for $50 online at <www. familyofchampions.ca> and anyone that pre-orders their copy by May 11 will receive two free tickets to the book launch and movie screening event at the Empire Theatre on Thursday, May 14. Pre-orders can also be made at the Belleville Club during their business hours or by contacting Aaron Bell. Remaining tickets for the book launch and movie screening will be available at the door at the Empire Theatre on Thursday, May 14. Tickets are $10.50 for adults and $8 for seniors and children.

TRAVEL

My inspirational, touching encounter with Johnny Cash’s youngest sister

At the graveside of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash in the Hendersonville Memory Gardens. By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - I recently returned from a press trip to Tennessee, where I was gathering materials for future travel pieces. One of the “special moments” on this particular trip was a visit to the Hendersonville Memory Gardens, where I visited the gravesites of Johnny and June Carter Cash; I learned the two of them passed away just four months apart. I also met his youngest sister there, Joanne Cash Yates, and I thought it was so gracious and touching of her to meet us at the gravesite. She told us some background information about her “Big Brother” who she loved so much and who “always took care” of her. As we listened, she confessed that both she and Johnny went through

some very “dark days” in their early years, including marriages that ended in divorces, and struggles with addiction problems. However, she confided that “they both finally got it right with the Lord,” and it turned their lives around. She said June Carter Cash was instrumental in “setting Johnny on the right path,” and he finally got up the courage to propose to her while on stage in Canada (in London, Ontario). They were married in Franklin, Kentucky, in 1968. He also rediscovered his Christian faith, taking an “altar call” in a small church in the Nashville area where the pastor was the Reverend Jimmie Rodgers Snow, son of Canadian country music superstar Hank Snow. Joanne went on to tell us that she “gave her

heart to Jesus” in 1970, and she began her brand new life. She discovered her musical calling, got involved in singing at church, and then sang at the Grand Ole Opry. She met Dr. Harry Yates, a pastor, and they married in 1971, and they dedicated their lives to full-time preaching and gospel singing as they travelled throughout North America for about the next 15 years. I met Joanne’s husband, too, and when I gave my usual answer to this American about where I lived in Canada, “just east of Toronto,” he asked me if I meant Whitby or Ajax or Oshawa, so he was certainly knowledgeable about this area of our province; I told him I was from the Belleville area, and he said that they had been there on one of their preaching tours several years ago, and that they had liked the area very much. After all those years on the road, Joanne and Harry returned to the Nashville area and began the Nashville Cowboy Church, which features lots of country gospel music. Joanne is one of the singers at every Sunday morning service, and her husband fits in a “seven-minute sermon” during this fastpaced, interdenominational service. It’s held in Nashville’s Texas Troubadour Theatre, which is located directly across from the Opryland Hotel. It’s also broadcast into 110 countries via WSM Radio, Sirius/XM Satellite

Radio, and WWCR (World Wide Country Radio). Both Joanne and Harry were proudly wearing Johnny Cash T-shirts as they stood by the grave that amazing day, and Joanne then sang a song about “losing a friend” as she gazed down at Johnny’s grave. She then had us join in on the singing of one of her and Johnny’s favourite gospel songs, Amazing Grace, and it was, indeed, a “special” moment. It seemed very meaningful and genuine. We then went to lunch together at the Chocolate Covered Strawberry Café in nearby Gallatin, Tennessee, where we learned of the many gospel albums Joanne has recorded, as well as receiving even more tidbits about their early childhood years. Joanne told us the Cash family originally lived in Arkansas, and there were seven children. She said John began working in the cotton fields at the age of five, where he apparently loved to sing while working. I was

also told that some floods in this area inspired Johnny to eventually write the song Five Feet High and Rising. She also remembered they had a batterypowered radio in their home, and they spent many hours listening to gospel music. One of the travel writers in our group asked Joanne about her opinion about the film about Johnny entitled Walk the Line, and she said she thought it was quite good, but that Hollywood had

made her dad seem crueler than he was. Joanne said, “Daddy wasn’t mean like that.” After this intriguing, informative visit with Joanne and Harry, I was now determined to find out even more about Johnny Cash, so I checked out the Johnny Cash Museum and the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, both located in downtown Nashville. Johnny, “The Man in Black,” would traditionally stroll onto the stage and begin a performance by simply saying “Hello, I’m Johnny Cash.” He’d then begin singing some of his well-known hits, including Folsom Prison Blues, Man in Black, Ring of Fire and I Walk the Line. I also learned he’d appeared in several movies and had his own television show. Indeed, there was lots of information available about Johnny Cash. If you’re planning a trip to Nashville, you might want to check these out for yourself. You might even decide to visit the Nashville Cowboy Church or the Hendersonville Memory Gardens, too.

Prince Edward County duo take talent title

Prince Edward County band Instant Rivalry (Caleb and Megan Hutton) took the grand championship at the Next Country Music Star Talent Search and will appear on stage at this summer’s 26th annual Havelock Country Jamboree. By Bill Freeman

Entertainment - Havelock - They were the first band to advance through the opening round of the Next Country Music Start Talent

Search and when the final chord was played on grand championship night at The Ranch Resort in Bethany the dynamic Prince Edward County

brother and sister duo Instant Rivalry walked away with the crown. The victory gives Caleb and Megan Hutton a showcase spot on stage at the 26th annual Havelock Country Jamboree along with the second- and third-place finishers Henry Norwood and the James Barker Band. The Next Country Music Start Talent Search was a joint effort between The Ranch Resort and the Havelock Country Jamboree and brought together 32 outstanding performers over a series of weeks with winners and wild cards advancing to a semi-final round and eventually a grand championship night featuring six groups. Also appearing on stage in the finals were Jamie Stever, Kaitlin Kozell and Kansas Stone along with special guest performances by Jamie Spurvey, Cameron VanCreigem and Jessica Wedden. A panel of notable industry names– Bruce Good of The Good Brothers, Tony Tarleton, manager of Maple Music Recordings/Fontana North, Mike Denny, president of MDM Records and Trevor Lamas, national promotions manager for Sony Music Canada–had a tough but musically enjoyable night ahead of them. “It was the best show yet,” said Jennifer Goheen of the Havelock Country Jamboree, who had a stint on the judge’s panel earlier in the competition. “There were so many talented acts each night. It truly was very difficult to determine the winners. We had to let so many go; it was a very tough decision.” Goheen said the record label judge’s

comments were “outstanding. “They said it was the best run and best talent show they had ever come across of this nature,” she said. Instant Rivalry will take the Jamboree stage on August 14; Henry Norwood, a 16-year-old out of Perth, Ontario, who wowed judges and spectators with his acoustic guitar traditional country solo stylings, will be on stage August 16 just before Grammy Award winner Rhonda Vincent; the James Barker Band was the first band to get called back for an encore performance during the preliminary rounds, will be on stage August 14 before Instant Rivalry. Caleb and Megan started playing together as Instant Rivalry (IR) while attending high school. The Highway, a song off their first album, spent nine weeks on the independent charts reaching number two on the

international charts and receiving international radio play. The duo has toured Canada opening for big names like The Trews, Jefferson Starship, Honeymoon Suite and Sarah Cripps. They have spent time in Nashville and are members of the Nashville Song-writing Association International. Instant Rivalry also wins a TW JF Tanglewood Java Series guitar from The Guitar Boutique. Prizes also include mentoring time with industry professionals, professional photo packages, and a one-day studio session worth $5,000 at Metalworks Recording Studio . The second- and third-place winners will also appear at the Marmora Fall Jamboree and the RPM Recreation and Performance Motor Show.

Competition over, concert to come By Richard Turtle

Entertainment - Stirling The 65th Annual Stirling Festival of Sacred Praise wrapped up on Tuesday at St. Paul’s United Church with several top performers scheduled to return to the stage for the upcoming Stars of the Festival concert. Featuring classes primarily for children and youth, the multi-disciplinary competition provides opportunities for musicians and orators of all ages to practise their skills in front of an audience and for a professional adjudicator. Organized by the Stirling Festival Committee in conjunction with the Official Board of St. Paul’s United

Church, the competition’s stated objective “is not to gain a prize, but to promote a love of Sacred Praise, especially among boys, girls and young people.” For nearly two weeks, beginning on April 19, classes were held at both St. Paul’s and the Stirling Festival Theatre in various disciplines including voice, piano, violin and scripture as well as categories for bands and choirs. Adjudicators assigned to the different classes are all specialists in their fields and provided encouragement, advice and comments to competitors following each section. They were also responsible for marking and ranking the

performers. On the recommendation of the adjudicator, performers may also be eligible for provincial competition as a result of their performances. As well, several participants who placed at the top of their class have been invited to perform for the public again in the Stars of the Festival concert on Friday, May 8, at 7 p.m. at St. Paul’s. Admission is $3 for adults and 50 cents for children.

Friends of Ferris to host free walking tours again from nearby Brighton, and Trenton, and countries such as Germany, England and the U.S. Whether from nearby or from far away, visitors want to see the progress being made on the dry stone wall restoration project or to find out if the osprey and chimney swifts have returned to take up residence in their respective platforms and towers. The volunteers work hard every year to ensure the park has plenty of activities and events that keep it a popular destination spot. “If you have lived in Campbellford all your life or if you are new to the area, these guided walks are a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature which is so close. It’s like being in your own back yard,” said Robertson. Rain or shine the walks will be held. “Once last year it was pouring rain … sure enough a friend showed up. We dithered a bit about whether we should start out but we were both dressed for it so off we went,” Robertson commented. “It was a unique experience

By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Dust off your sneakers, dig out your walking gear and even bring your Nordic poles because the Friends of Ferris (FofF)will be hosting the first of its guided walks on May 5. This will be the sixth year for these free tours. “For the last several years Friends of Ferris volunteers have offered free guided tours in the Park [Ferris Provincial Park],” said Carol Robertson, vice president. She has been organizing the walks for many years and is a staunch supporter of this non-profit energetic group of volunteers. “If you are interested in learning more about the park and all the wonders of nature that can be found there, join us every Tuesday at 9 a.m. at the east end of the Suspension Bridge,” she said inviting participation in this season’s weekly event. The free guided walks attract regular walkers from the neighbouring towns of Hastings, Stirling, Havelock and Marmara as well as visitors

because we got to see, smell and feel the park in an entirely different condition.” The trails are maintained by park staff and a crew of volunteers. No matter what the weather the trails are navigable; guided tours will continue every Tuesday until December 8. Robertson noted that the Spring Nature Walk, formerly the Trillium Walk, is in hiatus this year, “so the Tuesdays in May will be perfect for seeing the spring wild flowers in all their glory.” The goal is to get people into the park, she explained. “When people visit the park they see the efforts of park staff, Friends of Ferris volunteers and the results of donations. They witness the value of money well spent. “The guided walks are free if you walk in. If you choose to drive in then you pay at the gate entrance off County Road 8,” she concluded.

Sounds and music at Arts Centre Hastings By Diane Sherman

Entertainment - Madoc - How an audience hears a performing artist is the limiting factor to their success; if the sound is not right, the performance is not right. Saturday, April 25, 12 individuals, all involved with music, theatre or stage presentation in some way, attended a workshop, Sound System 101, at Arts Centre Hastings in Madoc, to learn the basics of setting up a public address system. The workshop was spearheaded by James Reid of BV Amazing Music, well known for keeping the Amazing Jam Session going after it dissolved from its origins at Amazing Coffee in Madoc. Participants from Norwood, Belleville, Tweed, Campbellford and beyond signed up for the course through links sent out by Reid to members on the Amazing mailing list. Instructor Martin Comeau is well known for his role as stage manager for the Blue Skies Music Festival held each long weekend of August in Clarendon, Ontario. The festival has been on-going for 35 years, the same as Comeau’s work history in the field. After their workshop and a supper break, the doors were opened to the public for a free show highlighting participants and drop-in musicians, while participants applied their technical skills

with guidance from Comeau. Refreshments were served by Madoc’s own Hidden Goldmine Bakery and the sound was perfect. Local singer/songwriter Kyle Mitchell was the feature artist, often sitting in on sound with Comeau. Tony Long, the originator of Amazing Coffee in Madoc, was on hand. Long said he misses the music and the people who passed through his shop over the years. “I just had to come out and enjoy this night,” he said. He was not disappointed. The talent was impressive. The quality of sound and production was at its best, giving each artist individual attention. Comeau demonstrated how a show could become recording-ready. Sixteen-year-old Owen Wright from Norwood is producing his own soundtracks and wanted to learn all he could about setting a stage and controlling sound. The same with Michael McNamara, who began pursuing his music career only three years ago. On the slate was KAZ, whose guitar style and unique voice captured the audience. Peter Schilling followed with a blues flare. Carol King from Marmora enchanted with her a cappella of Ella Fitzgerald, Bill Milligan presented his unique sense of humour, Paul King with JP Copeland combined their talents, and

Michael McNamara has a flare for the folk/blues music of the legendary Lead Belly and proved it on stage. Photo: Diane Sherman

Deb Chatreau stomped the stage with her upbeat ukelele rendition of Daddy was a Rolling Stone. Chatreau works with Blue Skies in the Community to bring music into the schools. As a teacher at Madoc Township Public School, Chatreau knows the value of encouraging youth to pursue musical

interests. The hat was passed after her performance to help support the outreach program. The sentiment at the end of the day was the event was a unanimous success. You can see the show on YouTube at CHTV Madoc, and find The Blue Skies Festival links on the Internet.

Alderville First Nation outlines consultation protocol

By Dominik Wisniewski, Northumberland News

lumbia. “One of our people got shot in Ipperwash in 1995 and that was to do with lack of consultation,” he said, pointing to the day that the OPP shot and killed Dudley George at Ipperwash Provincial Park. “The bands there had given land to the government during the war time and want to get this land back, but it was never returned to them.” Simpson said that all it would have taken back then was to sit down and “talk about this situation with the government and the people. “It could diffuse a whole lot of problems and issues,” he added.

R0013252621

News - Alderville - Representatives from the Alderville First Nation (AFN) have outlined a new duty-to-consult protocol to Northumberland County officials, with the hope of working together on any proposed developments on their territory. According to AFN lands and resources co-ordinator Dave Simpson, the protocol spells out what is expected of a proponent when it comes to consulting the First Nation. During a recent presentation at the regular session of county council, he said the protocol was created based on a 2004 Supreme Court decision in British Co-

Looking back on the AFN’s long history in Ontario–dating back centuries through migrations to the Great Lakes and southern Ontario–Simpson said it was through treaties, land cessions and land being taken away, that Alderville “ended up on a small parcel of land at the north end of Northumberland County.” In addition to this land, the AFN still has their treaty area, the Williams Treaties First Nations which are comprised in part by the Mississaugas of Alderville First

Nation, he said. “It’s not just Alderville First Nation that you have to consult with. Depending on the project you may have to consult several other First Nations,” he told council. In addition to being stewards of the land for generations, Simpson said the AFN has traditional knowledge and wisdom from its elders that it can share through the protocol. “If you sit down in the planning stages

and talk with us we can have valued input on your projects,” he said. “We’re not enemies, we’re not against progress and we’re not against projects, but we would like to work together.” Before passing a motion to receive the protocol, Northumberland County Warden Marc Coombs thanked the Alderville First Nation delegation–which included Chief Jim Bob Marsden–who attended the meeting to also participate in the flagraising ceremony.

Quinte Christian High School stages spring musical Ernest in Love

Entertainment - Belleville - Quinte Christian High School students are getting ready to stage their spring musical, Ernest in Love. The show is a witty jaunt through the dreadfully complicated social scene of upper class Londoners. Based on Oscar Wilde’s The Impor-

tance of Being Earnest, this musical adaptation written by Anne Croswell and scored by Lee Pockriss takes us back to the late Victorian age when manners, money and marriage were all that really mattered. The show runs May 7 to 9 at 7 p.m. each night. Tickets are $15

for adults, $10 for seniors and are available at the door. Quinte Christian High School is at 138 Wallbridge-Loyalist Road. Come enjoy a farcical comedy with love and white lies in the air, when the characters are earnest only when they’re not Ernest.
