ASHLEY KULP akulp@metroland.com A barn has been destroyed and livestock, including approximately 40 goats, have perished in a fire in Toledo.

Elizabethtown-Kitley Fire Department received the 911 call for a barn on fire on Baker Road, just after 3 p.m. on Tuesday, July 17, said fire chief Jim Donovan.

Upon arrival, the barn was fully engulfed, with Donovan noting he could see the smoke from Forthton.

"When we arrived, there were two different grass fires on the east and west side (of the barn) and an old rail fence had fallen down," he explained at the scene.

The township's station 1 (Lyn), station 2 (New Dublin) and station 3 (Frankville) were dispatched to the scene and mutual aid was sought from the Merrickville-Wolford and Athens deSee ANIMALS, page 4

It's hard to believe the new school year is just over a month away with many parents and children preparing for the big day!

With the success of last year's backpack drive, our local 3M Canada Perth plants are once again stepping up with United Way Lanark County (UWLC) to run the 3M Backpack Drive, from now until Aug. 17 to collect school supplies and donations for local youth in Lanark County.

Sadly, many families in our community are unable to afford the traditional school supplies needed to kick off a new school year, which sees kids still returning without the supplies they require to achieve their full potential.

"Over the past three years, we have seen great support from 3M and the community with our backpack drive," stated Amy Elsner, community partnership development officer for UWLC. "With their generosity, we were able to fill 50 backpacks last year, distributed to students through the youth centres in Lanark County and Smiths Falls. This year we hope to continue to meet this need, helping children and youth in our community start the school year on a positive note. 3M and its employees continue to show enthusiasm and drive to help those in need in our community, and we are so grateful for their support and willingness to bring awareness to local issues. As both a longtime and one of our largest supporters through corporate and employee donations, 3M exemplifies true community spirit and an organization dedicated to social responsibility."

3M employees will be busy collecting and donating supplies and cash to the drive, and invite members of our community to participate and donate as well.

"At 3M we are proud to be part of this community initiative. We are honoured to participate in such a worthwhile event," said Allyson McIntyre, human resources manager at 3M Perth.

Submitted/UWLC United Way Lanark County is teaming up with 3M Perth to offer the 3M Backpack Drive to provide local students with school supplies to ready them for the school year. Donations are being accepted from now until Aug. 17.

What to donate?

The focus of the backpack drive will continue to centre on collecting school supplies for children and youth in grades 7 to 12. The back to school kits will specifically include: backpacks, pencil crayons with sharpener (24-pack), markers (12-pack), pencils, blue pens, 1.5-inch binders, highlighters, lined paper, large glue sticks, scientific calculators and lunch bags. We also appreciate cash or gift cards to local stores, which we will use to complete the kits with the necessary items.

Drop-off locations UWLC and 3M, along with community partners will welcome new backpacks and unopened items from the community until Aug. 17 at the following locations during their regular opening hours: • 3M Perth (2 Craig St., Perth): Inside building 301, Monday to Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.

• United Way Lanark County: (15 Bates Dr., Carleton Place), Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

• Mississippi Mills Youth Centre: (134 Main St. E., Almonte), Tuesday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

• WAK c/o Big Brothers Big Sisters: (18 William St. E., Smiths Falls), Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

• Lanark Highlands Youth Centre (61 Princess St., Lanark): Monday, Tuesday, Friday, 3 to 8 p.m., and Wednesday to Thursday, 3 to 6 p.m.

• YAK Youth Services (1 Sherbrooke St. E., Perth): Monday to Friday, 2 to 7 p.m.

• Carleton Place Youth Centre (Edmund St., Carleton Place): Monday, Tuesday, Friday, 2 to 7 p.m.; Wednesday, 2 to 6:30 p.m. and Friday, 2 to 7:30 p.m.

In addition to this 3M Backpack Drive, Connections (a program of Lanark Community Programs which is part of Lanark Renfrew Health & Community Services) supports families in the healthy growth and development of young children through co-operative efforts involving families, services and communities, and will continue to collect requests and referrals from other organizations and individuals throughout Lanark County for younger children.

Connections' program will, on average, supply more than 300 backpacks each year to children in the community. The 3M Backpack Drive will share any supplies donated for that age group with the Connections program. Help our youth start their school year off confident and ready to learn!

For more information, please contact the United Way Lanark County office at 613-253-9074 or Amy Elsner via email at aelsner@unitedwaylanarkcounty.ca.

RIDEAU VALLEY CONSERVATION AUTHORITY REPORTS MODERATE LOW WATER CONDITIONS The Rideau Valley Conservation Authority is advising there is a low water status in the Rideau River watershed is now at moderate severity as of July 19.

Rainfall in the last 90 days, measured at climate stations in and around the watershed, is about 60 per cent of the normal amount for the time of year which is the threshold for moderate severity low water.

Rain presently forecast for much of next week will be welcome but is not expected to have a significant impact. Longer range forecasts indicate temperatures above normal and precipitation below normal through the rest of the summer and into the fall.

Although daytime highs greater than 30 degrees appear to be passing, it will still be warm enough for evaporation to continue to reduce water levels on all lakes and streams.

Levels and streamflows

are below normal for the time of year but are still above critical thresholds.

Flows in smaller streams will be raised briefly if the short range weather forecasts prove to be accurate.

Rideau Canal reservoir lakes are at levels typical of later into September.

However, there have been no reports of insufficient draft on the Rideau Canal system relayed to the conservation authority.

Conditions are expected to decline generally.

Conservation authority staff continue to monitor conditions and communicate with water managers throughout the watershed.

Updates to this message will be issued as conditions warrant.

Water conservation is recommended for everyone within the Rideau River watershed including residents on private wells inside the City of Ottawa boundary. Those who have

permits for taking water from surface or groundwater sources are encouraged to reduce their actual taking as much as possible. Residents on private well systems are also urged to use water conservatively. Using rain barrels to capture any rain to water lawns and gardens.

Avoid using pressure washers to clean houses, driveways, decks and fences. All these actions contribute to the conservation of our water resources.

Municipalities may have invoked water restrictions so check your municipal website for applicable bylaws.

BUDGET APPROVAL FOR CATHOLIC SCHOOL BOARD FOR NEXT YEAR The Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario's board of trustees has approved an operating budget of $181.9 million, and a capital budget of $7.5 million for the 2018-2019 school year.

All expenditure areas were carefully reviewed for efficiencies and to ensure excellence in Catholic program delivery for students across eastern Ontario.

"The board is required to present a balanced budget for compliance to the Ministry of Education.

The 2018-2019 budget, totalling $189.4 million, is compliant with all enveloping provisions required on board administration, special education, Indigenous education per-pupil amount, school renewal expenditures, school condition improvement, program leadership allocation, and library staff," Ashley Hutchinson, manager of finance, said.

Legislative grants make up $150.4 million and local taxation includes $19.8 million. Other revenue totals $2.5 million and includes tuition fees from the international and personal support worker programs, other grants from outside of the grants for student needs (GSN) including the

math strategy, mental health workers in schools, and the OYAP (Ontario Youth Apprenticeship Program), and revenue to offset the amortization expense on the board's capital assets. The board anticipates additional funding as part of the education programs (EPO): EPO grants which are yet to be announced by the Ministry of Education.

"The most significant change you will notice between our original and revised budget is that we are seeing a significant increase in transportation costs, which is creating a cost pressure," noted Hutchinson. "With funds transferred from the internally appropriated accumulated surplus, we are left with a small operating deficit for the 2018-2019 fiscal year of $25,500."

Trustees approved the budget at the board meeting held June 19, 2018.

Board chair Todd Lalonde thanked the group for all of their work in preparing the budget.

Certificates of Appreciation 2018 Each year, the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario (CDSBEO) honours deserving stu-

dents and staff through the presentation of certificates of appreciation. Awarded to remarkable persons with outstanding successes, the certificates were presented to 18 students at the June 19 board meeting. The following are this year's award recipients in Lanark County and area.

• Brooklyn Jordan, St. John Catholic Elementary School After participating in the St. John Catholic High School's annual Relay for Life in May, and being so touched by the experience, Brooklyn felt that she wanted to do more to help. Brooklyn took on her own initiative to make and sell bracelets, with all proceeds going to Relay for Life. Brooklyn is a very caring person who makes a difference among her peers and within her school community.

• Victoria Nichols, Notre Dame Catholic High School Victoria has been a dedicated highland dancer from a very young age. This year, Victoria placed seventh in the Scottish Open Championship in Dunoon, Scotland; placed in the top six in the Commonwealth Championship in Stirling, Scotland; won first place at the Loch Norman

Carolinas Open Championship in Charlotte, North Carolina, and represented Canada in the Basel Tattoo musical event in Switzerland, as part of the Canadiana Celtic national dance team.

• Charlotte and Jaclyn Stewart, St. John Catholic High School Charlotte and Jaclyn are two sisters that have been dedicated dancers from a very young age.

Both compete at the national and international level in highland dance. Charlotte placed third overall, and Jaclyn placed fourth overall for their respective age groups at the 2018 Ontario Closed Championship. Charlotte placed first at the Ottawa Highland Dance Association Championship, fifth at the Commonwealth Championship, seventh at the Cowal World Championship, and fifth at the Bute Highland Championship, all of which were held in Scotland. Jaclyn won the Commonwealth Championship in Stirling, Scotland, and placed fifth at the Juvenile World Championship in Cowal, Scotland. In addition to dance, Jaclyn has also played the lead role in the short film From Sarajevo, which won numerous awards at the South Academy

Arts and Film Festival.

• Maggie Shaw, St. John Catholic Elementary School For the last four years Maggie Shaw has been inspired to help others and to give back to her community. In doing so, she has raised $5,000 that has been dispersed to various families in need or community organizations that support families. Three years ago, she helped to organize a school wide skating party to raise money for a fellow student who was terminally ill. Last year, Maggie organized a church and school parish event to support a former student of St. John elementary who was battling cancer. This year, another fundraiser was organized that saw the proceeds go directly to Ronald McDonald House.

• Isabelle Georgeadis, St. John Catholic Elementary School Isabelle is a Grade 6 student who recently raised $1,200 to shave off her long hair. She generously donated the funds to the Children's Wish Foundation of Ontario, and to the cadets association to which she belongs. Congratulations Isabelle on making a difference and demonstrating to your classmates how important it is to give back to others.See the full list of recipients on www.insideottawavalley.com.

No, it's not a typo! Willm Shaksper, a new adaptation of an old play about the most famous writer of the English language, is coming to Perth's Full Circle Theatre beginning Aug. 10 and it's a show that is full of surprises, comedy, drama and excitement.

A little over a hundred years ago, Harold Rubinstein and Clifford Bax created a "play in five episodes" that looked at the life of William Shakespeare through the light of what few facts were known about him at the time. Their "William Shakespeare" was respected among scholars but never really received much notice outside of academia at the time.

Since then, however, hundreds, if not thousands of tidbits of information about

Shakespeare have been unearthed, from facts about his business dealings, to his family life, to his life as a playwright in London. We now even have a number of pages of original manuscript from the play, Sir Thomas More, which are in his own handwriting. This new version of the play has been crafted to incorporate that new information and uses it to help examine the nature of The Bard of Avon.

Willm Shaksper looks at five fictional episodes in Shakespeare's life, beginning in 1592, when he was just becoming known as a playwright and moving through his successful career, his difficult family relations, his possible love life and ending in 1616, just

Productions doesn't do dryas-toast theatre. The show is fast, full of surprises, full of laughs and as rough-andtumble as Shakespeare's London was.

Oh, and that title? We have, currently, six authentic William Shakespeare signatures, only one of which is spelled "William Shakespeare." Three of them, however, are spelled "Willm Shaksper." We just went with the majority.

Willm Shaksper runs Aug. 10 through Aug. 26 at 7:30 p.m., Thursdays through Saturdays and 1:30 p.m. Sundays. All performances are at the air-conditioned, ground-level, barrier-free Full Circle Theatre, 26 Craig St., Perth, near Last Duel Park. Tickets are just $20 reserved; $22 at the door.

To reserve, simply call 613267-1884. No credit cards are needed; cash at the performance is requested.

weeks prior to his death. Although the episodes are fiction, the history behind them is factual and it gives credence to the possible explanations of what and why Shakespeare was as a man.

BarnDoor Productions' cast of eight take on the 19 characters in the show, all of them real people who were, at various times, a part of Shakespeare's life. From neighbours, to land ladies, to wife and daughters, to actors and theatre owners, the people around Shakespeare were every bit as interesting as he was.

Willm Shaksper puts William Shakespeare into his time: He wrote plays that reflected the times he lived in, even the current events around him and yet, unlike most of his fellow 16th century playwrights, his plays surmounted their time and remain important today. The why of that has to do with the why of the man.

If all of that sounds dry as toast, don't worry, it's far from it. After 23 seasons and more than 120 productions (including more than a dozen by Shakespeare himself), it's safe to say that BarnDoor

NEW BBBS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR HAPPY WITH ROLE IN COMMUNITY LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com Gail Logan is a new executive director at the helm of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County, and she has hit the ground running.

"I'm thrilled to be selected to lead this exceptional organization and look forward to meeting volunteers and stakeholders in the coming months," she said Friday, July 20, after her first full week in her new position. "I'm thankful of the confidence of the board to hire me, and I'm excited to go out and shout about BBBS (Big Brothers Big Sisters)."

There were 35 applications received by the board, according to chair Sue Cavanaugh. "Gail has worked primarily in the charitable and not-for-profit sector throughout her very successful career and is an award-winning association professional (who) will bring new ideas for growth in programming and revenues to

BBBSLC," she said.

Logan said she's appreciative of former executive director Jennifer Miller's help in getting transitioned into her new position. "She has assembled a very dedicated and competent volunteer and staff team and we will continue to build on her successes; doing great things for children and youth in Lanark County," Logan said.

Logan has had success in her career as well, being named one of Ottawa's Top 10 Most Influential Women, and one of Ottawa's Top 100 Most Influential People.

She also earned the Queen's Golden Jubilee Medal for her work.

NEW LANGUAGE Fundraising drives programming, and programming drives fundraising, Logan said.

"The two are really intertwined. I want to look at our capacity for growth and I want to work with our staff ... and fun-

growth is. For specific opportunities we can create long-lasting partnerships."

She will discover this by working with her team, and currently, she's having one-on-one visits with them.

ON THE PERSONAL SIDE

Laurie Weir/Metroland Gail Logan is the new executive director at Lanark County Big Brothers Big Sisters, replacing Jennifer Miller who left the position in June, 2018. draise around that."

Logan said she's looking at changing the fundraising language to something more all-en-

compassing.

"Instead of going to someone and asking if they'd consider making a major donation to Big Brothers Big Sisters, I would really like to be able to go to them, (and say) 'Here's a new program that we want to offer, would you be willing to make a program commitment,' and that way we can deliver the program. They could get involved in the planning so it becomes as part of their DNA as it is ours," she said.

Then the next time BBBS seeks funding may be easier, as donors become more involved in the process and programming, and they want to stay involved and connected, Logan explained.

"We welcome donations at any time, but to really take advantage of sources that are out there, they have to know about us, and if (donating) meets their corporate responsibility over their own desire, it's longer lasting."

If people wonder why they should support BBBS, Logan said she could give them a litany of reasons, but "I want to ask, what inspires you, what excited you in the community, or what gives you goosebumps when you donate or you see something that you really like?"

This way, Logan said, she'd have a better understanding from potential donors if they are the right fit for each other's needs.

"We want them to be just as passionate and as excited about Big Brothers Big Sisters as we are," she said. "That's my approach ... and it will come with understanding of what the gaps are, and what our capacity for

Logan and her husband, Warren Miney, who is the executive director at the Lanark Highlands Youth Centre, have a lake home in Lanark Highlands where they have lived for the past dozen years. She said she doesn't mind the scenic commute to Smiths Falls, as she is used to driving to Ottawa.

She has worked for the United Way Ottawa and Renfrew County, as well as various chambers of commerce and tourism bureaus throughout Ontario. Hailing from Burlington, Logan retired from the Ottawa Chamber of Commerce in 1997. She and her husband, a 30-year scout leader, started a consulting business, Changes R Us, specializing in services for not-for-profits and charities.

Logan has fundraised for Carleton University, OneChange, and Habitat for Humanity in the National Capital Region, and the Canadian Pain Summit.

Logan has a son Greg, who is in information technology in Ottawa, and Miney has two sons: James who is in health care in Toronto, and Michael, who is in the music industry and lives in Fredericton, NB. All three young men are in their 20s.

"We are all getting together over the long weekend in August," she said, referring to their sons, girlfriends, and friends of the family.

Logan and Miney have been married four years, Aug. 3 and following their wedding, which happened at their property, they jumped in the lake - literally.

"That's just us," she said. "We're pretty laid back people, and we love to have fun. We're really looking forward to having everybody here," she said. "It will be very relaxed."

Together, the couple enjoys music, summer fun on the water, their pets (two chocolate labs and a pair of tabby cats), and riding motorcycles.

Logan said her door at BBBS is always open, and she welcomes input from the community.

"I can't wait to get out into the community," she said. "I am just so thrilled to be here."

CONFEDERATE FLAG IS SYMBOL FOR RACISM, NOT RURAL PRIDE THE RACIST ROOTS OF THE FLAG CAN'T BE IGNORED, WRITES EVELYN HARFORD After moving to Lanark County, I've seen three Confederate flags: one in Lanark Highlands, one in Rideau Lakes, and one in Smiths Falls. Coming from Toronto, I'd never seen the Confederate flag on display by anyone - let alone out front of someone's home or business.

Shocked by their presence, I asked around about why people would want to fly such a flag with deep history, rooted in hate.

I'm told that for those who fly the "rebel flag" in Canada, it's largely seen as a symbol of rural pride and resistance to big government. But its critics, including my-

EVELYN HARFORD Column

self, maintain that while the flag might symbolize those things for some people, at its core the Confederate flag points to dark, racist roots.

According to Public Religion Research Institute based in Washington, 60 per cent of white Americans see the Confederate flag as a symbol of southern pride, a view shared by just 15 per cent of black Americans.

The historical context of the flag south of the border has its roots tied to systemic racism, including slavery and slavery's lasting legacies.

The flag was flown by the Confederacy during the American Civil War. The flag represents the fight to uphold slavery and oppose civil rights advances.

While Canadians in rural On-

tario, including right here, may have co-opted the flag as a symbol to show off their rural pride, they can't divorce the realities of the flag's history. People may want to debate in semantics about what the flag means to them. But, the racist roots of the flag can't be ignored.

As an area welcoming tourists, including international ones, I think we need to think about what message flying the Confederate flag might send. We cannot be complacent. Inequality, systemic oppression, and discrimination depend on people not speaking up.

We can be better.

Racism is not dead in our society. Rather, the contrary.

Just last month, I covered a Smiths Falls family's story where they expressed their hurt over being targeted in a racist incident at Lower Reach Park.

A grandmother this newspaper that she and her grandson were told to leave the park because of the colour of their skin. This type

HEAT, HUMIDITY PRESENTS CHALLENGES THIS YEAR

SCORCHING TEMPERATURES FORCE TOO MUCH TIME INDOORS, JEFF MAGUIRE WRITES

After the past winter I swore I wouldn't complain if the summer of 2018 turned out to be extremely hot and humid. After all we were still in the grips of winter in midApril and by the time the first decent spring day rolled around most of us were desperate for some sunshine and warmth.

It took a while, but once this summer heated up - well, it hasn't stopped has it. By the beginning of last week the words of complaint I swore I wouldn't utter were curling

JEFF MAGUIRE Column

my lips and sticking to the end of my tongue. I somehow managed to choke them back, supported in that effort by memories of falling flat on my butt on ice back on April 16.

My wife Kathleen was born and raised in Chatham, Ont. a small city in the heart of Ontario's banana belt. In those parts the heat and humidity arrives in early May and it doesn't release its sultry grip until the end of September.

My wife has always claimed that her southwestern Ontario upbringing has made her far less susceptible to heat and humidity. It used to annoy me no end when af-

ter a long drive, under a boiling sun in a vehicle with no air conditioning - we didn't have AC in a car until the late 1980s - I would unleash a plethora of complaints about the temperature only to hear Kathy reply, "Oh, it's not that bad for goodness sakes!" That was usually enough to make me do a fast - not a slow - burn!

I follow the news closely and I feel so badly for anyone, of any age who doesn't have a cool place to escape the heat wave we've experienced for so long.

I know that many people, especially the elderly and those with chronic medical conditions have died either directly or indirectly as a result of the relentless heat and humidity.

I also feel for the agricultural community in our region and other areas of Canada impacted by the

of intolerance and bigotry cannot be tolerated.

The Confederate flag is a symbol for this type of hate.

And, while the people flying the Confederate flag may not be racist or hateful towards people of colour, we cannot forget the flag's origins.

It's important for those who choose to fly the flag to think critically about its origins before proudly displaying it.

They need to think less about themselves and more about what that flag may represent for someone else and what flying that flag may make others think of them.

The flag has also been co-opted by organizations and people who are hate-filled and racist. These people understand what the flag's history is and fly it proudly to express their own racist views.

Drought is now gripping some places and seriously threatening others in several provinces, not just Ontario and Quebec.

With little rainfall forest fires are a serious threat in some regions and burn bans were in effect across several provinces last week.

If there's an upside to the sunshine it is that many people's summer holiday plans have received a big boost.

For me the most frustrating thing about this weather is having to spend so much time indoors.

Our curtains and blinds are shut and I take my daily walk at Walmart.

In our part of Canada the reality is that weather extremes are the rule not the exception.

So you have to know this particular weather anomaly won't last much longer.

Then I really will have something to complain about!

FRIENDS OF LANARK COUNTY RESPOND TO COUNTY'S 2018 SPRAY PROGRAM Dear Editor, Lanark County used herbicides for a third year in an effort to control wild parsnip.

The small ad in the local newspaper still left residents in the dark. The opt-out options were not advertised and those who signed onerous opt-out contracts last year were not notified that a renewal was necessary.

An organic farmer who opted out last year, had their property sprayed without their knowledge.

Forty-five kilometres of guardrails were also sprayed, many adjacent to water and wetlands during turtle nesting season, without notice. Most had no wild parsnip or poison ivy.

Eileen Barbeau, a member of the Friends of Bolingbroke Road Adopt a Road Group, commented, "In the recent press release by Lanark County, no mention is made of the labourintensive manual control program that is being undertaken by numerous volunteers.

The Adopt-A-Road program involves residents who provided and are still providing many hours of labour in this regard.

They are the ones using the alternative management strategies that protect our water and our pollinators."

Lanark County's Vegetative Management Plan is needs to be guided by a mission statement based on true environmental protection.

Residents must use the opportunity this upcoming elections to vote for candidates ready to defend our environment.

KATHRYN WILLIAMS ON BEHALF OF FRIENDS OF LANARK COUNTY

WARDEN CONCERNED WITH THREATS IN LANARK HIGHLANDS Dear Editor, It is with both concern and sadness that I read the press release from the Township of Lanark Highlands informing citizens that, following verbal threats to herself and her family, Clerk Administrator Allison

Vereyken resigned.

A benchmark of a civilized society is the ability for all citizens to speak freely and engage in rigorous debate, safe in the knowledge that, although not always agreeing with each other, citizens will walk away from that debate respecting each others' options.

The threats against made Ms. Vereken were simply reprehensible.

The person or persons who made these threats, in the darkness of anonymity, are cowards, and they are criminals.

I fully expect the OPP will arrest and charge those responsible and they will be prosecuted.

In the meantime, I wish to say to Ms. Vereyken that your work as Lanark Highlands Clerk Administrator was exceptional and your volunteer work in the community was greatly appreciated.

OPINION

JOHN FENIK WARDEN OF LANARK COUNTY

READER: BEER FRIDGE MAKES 'ZERO SENSE' The following is in response to the letter by Wm Bruce ('Beer welcomes after fighting fire') which appeared in our July 12 edition.

DEAR EDITOR: First and foremost, let me say that I respect and admire the profession of firefighter.

However, I wonder where Mr. Stewart and Mr. Antonakos, our mayor (the only vote in favour), would like us to draw the line.

How about a police officer or a paramedic who constantly deal with tragedy?

Or perhaps the overworked nurse or doctor.

Let's face it most people would love a cold beer after work but certainly not at their place of employment.

Simply from the legal aspect it makes zero sense.

As for Mr. Stewart's claim that either the chief or someone of authority always checked them out is quite frankly ridiculous.

Unless these authoritative people did a blood test orbreathalyzer on you then this assessment was useless in the eyes of the law.

Times have changed people.

Lanark County council accepted the 2017 audited financial statements following a presentation at the corporate services committee of the whole meeting Howard Allan of Allan and Partners LLP Chartered Professional Accountants.

"Overall, all of the financial indicators for the county are good," he said, adding 2017 was a good year.

"The balance sheet is in good shape. Council and staff have also been sensitive to increases in taxation."

The acquisition of the Ottawa Valley Recreation Trail land as a capital asset creates a "stunning" surplus, he said, adding net financial assets increased in 2017 by about $3.52 million.

"Financial administration at the county is good; they are paying attention to numbers during the year."

He said expenditures and revenues were in the $80-million range and very close to budget.

"The county spent less on social services than budgeted, and in operations there was a surplus of about $4 million."

He said the province has introduced a new financial indicator that measures a ratio of operating surplus to total revenues.

"I'm interested in this because you have to raise money to spend money on capital. It can make us more self-sufficient and less dependent on the province."

For more information, contact Jennie Bingley, treasurer, at 1888-9-LANARK, ext. 1320.

Submitted/Cheryl Colford The Smiths Falls Community Theatre will launch its summer production, 'The Secret Garden', an adaptation of the classic children's novel, Aug. 17 at the Station Theatre. Pictured, Mary Lennox (Addison Brown) has just met Misselthwaite's gardener Ben Weatherstaff (Stef Robar) and wants to know more about the gardens.

WALK THROUGH 'THE SECRET GARDEN' AT THE STATION THEATRE THIS SUMMER

Smiths Falls Community Theatre has a summer tradition: Pick a classic story, add singing and dancing and a whole lot of youngsters and you have our August play.

It's a tradition that is very close to director Lynda Daniluk's heart. She believes that the children of today, are the theatre's future of tomorrow. She wants to welcome as many kids who might be interested in participating as possible. Putting on a show incorporating kids often gives those kids their first taste of theatre. A surprising number come back year after year. And by telling classic stories featuring children, it welcomes more youngsters to attend a theatrical performance something they might not do otherwise.

This version of the play, by Miriam Raiken-Kolb is based on the classic children's novel, The Secret Garden, by Frances Hodgson Burnett which was published in 1911. One might think a book written that long ago couldn't be relevant in this day and age, but as Daniluk states "I'm drawn to stories that contain a little magic and have positive messages of love, hope, transformation and triumph. This story has all this, along with a lovely and memorable score." And really, who couldn't use some hope and love in this moment in history. This retelling has all of the essential elements of Hodgson Burnett's origi-

nal story.

The cast of 22, with the youngest player at age eight (we won't divulge the oldest's age) tells the story of young Mary Lennox, who is left an orphan when a cholera epidemic sweeps her home in India. She must move to England to live with a seemingly unfeeling uncle, who has his own pains to deal with.

Young Mary is left to her own devices and doesn't know what to do with herself, being used to being waited on and slightly spoiled.

The story, with the help of some very catchy songs that move the story along well, blossoms into a story about friendship and positivity, as Mary finds a secret garden that has been neglected for ten years and a little boy who has been kept upstairs for about the same amount of time. Mary and her new friends work to bring a pained family back together so that they can focus on positive memories instead of dwelling on loss.

When asked if it's a challenge to have such a large cast, Daniluk states that the biggest issue in the summer is availability, but she manages. "The best part is watching so many, who in the beginning don't all know each other - come together almost like a family to tell a story." There is a camaraderie that is formed when all involved have the same goal, and that, too, can be magical.

Why a musical? As Daniluk ex-

plains, "In my opinion, adding music to a story can enhance the artistry. The spoken word is nice, but when thoughts, experience and emotion are put into music, it touches us in a different way."

Think of how many song lyrics you remember from your far distant past. Now tell me a speech that you wrote in fifth grade. Music has a special effect on us. And this play will have that same effect on the audience. There is even a part of the story that asks the audience to help bring the magic. It also has some great gardening tips. One even helped bring Daniluk's rose, which was in dire shape, back to life!

So don't miss this uplifting story, The Secret Garden, running Friday and Saturday, Aug. 17 and 18 at 7:30 p.m. and a matinee show Sunday, Aug. 19 at 2 p.m. The second weekend runs Thursday to Saturday, Aug. 23 to 25 at 7:30 p.m. and finishes up with a matinee on Sunday, Aug. 26 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $20 for adults, $10 for students and can be purchased with cash at Special Greetings, 8 Russell St., Smiths Falls; online or by phone (613-283-0300) with credit card. If tickets are still available, they can be purchased a half-hour before showtime, at the door, with cash.

filled tribute to the war brides who arrived in Perth after the Second World War is a family-friendly show that enlivens the sidewalks and alleyways next to Perth's award-winning architectural facades. Indeed, they turn loading docks and assorted alleyways and courtyards into impromptu stages for dance numbers like Oh How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning, a comic song that many a soldier applauded when thinking of the dreaded early bugle calls in the armed services.

raid sirens, and long waits for letters home that were often cut up by the military censors. Young people who had to cut short their teenage years and assume adult responsibilities embraced one last opportunity to be kids again, and that exu-

berance comes through in Far From Home.

The show will appeal especially to fans of swing music and dancing, with songs like I've Got a Gal in Kalamazoo, In the Mood, For Me and My Gal, and Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree (With Anyone Else But Me) given vivacious renditions by the talented troupe that also performs the morning walking play, The Prisoner of Petawawa: Mallory Brumm, Katie Irvine, Connor Lyon, and Connor Williamson. The show was directed by Joanna McAuley Treffers.

Playwright Laurel Smith notes that war brides often found that their adjustment to new lives was not as easy as one would think, given that there were still significant cultural and linguistic differences between Britain and Cana-

da. Those differences make for some very funny moments, while tender renditions of torch songs like White Cliffs of Dover bring to life the heartfelt emotion that made putting a nickel into the jukebox at the Perth Tea Rooms such a romantic moment.

The Classic Theatre Festival is in the meantime continuing to run Mrs. Warren's Profession on its mainstage; the play shows the gradual reveal of a family secret. The Classic Theatre Festival is also planning the final mainstage show of the season, Angel Street (a.k.a. Gaslight), a riveting psychological thriller.

Tickets to all festival shows are available at www.classictheatre.ca or 1877-283-1283.

It's not every day that the streets of Perth turn into a scene from a classic musical like Singing in the Rain or On the Town, but that's exactly what happens this summer, every Thursday and Friday from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. with the Classic Theatre Festival production of Far From Home.

Passersby and drivers alike have done double takes as they see individuals wearing 1940s costumes singing and dancing their way down Gore Street. Far From Home is set in 1945 as the war winds down and people try to adjust to the major changes they experience in civilian life.

NEW LOOK, BETTER ACCESS FROM LANARK TRANSPORTATION Big changes have happened at Lanark Transportation, and it means more rides for more people in Lanark County.

The not-for-profit organization has expanded its ability to serve more clients in more ways. While it originally launched in 2001 as a transport service provider to Ontario Works and Ontario Disability Support Program clients to help them get to medical appointments, Lanark Transportation's mandate has shifted to bring more transportation opportunities to the public.

"In the past, many Lanark County residents believed that they would not qualify for Lanark Transportation's services, but we want residents to know

that we will do all we can to tell the client 'Yes, we can do that'," says Lanark Transportation executive director Marilyn Bird.

"Isolation is a health risk for many people in rural settings. But as our reach continues to grow, we're doing our part to eliminate some of this risk and give back to the community."

Not only can Lanark Transportation drive clients to and from their medical appointments, they can also get seniors to and from their long-term care facility, drive toddlers to daycare each morning, bring students to afterschool programs, drive residents to local food banks, connect job seekers to their job interviews, and other life enhancing ap-

pointments and services.

Lanark Transportation is also offering rural residents living in Lanark Highlands a weekly trip into town for shopping.

And the response is growing. While before, many people were unaware of Lanark Transportation's services, today Lanark Transportation has lots of clients all over Lanark County. Just last year, Lanark Transportation gave more than 24,000 rides.

"The program is a wonderful way of doing something that contributes to the community and to the health of the community as a whole," says Bird. "Now that we're broadening our reach, we're able to serve so many more people

across Lanark County."

Subsidizing Ride Fares for Better Access A big change at Lanark Transportation lies with subsidizing the fare costs so that more residents can access the services using a subsidy framework dependent on the client's income.

If the client's annual family income is less than $15,000, then the cost of the ride is free. If the client's family income is between $15,000 and $20,000, the ride may cost between $4 and $12 depending on the destination. After that, the base cost increases by $2 for every $5,000 increment in the client's household salary.

The cost is a flat fee, and could cover a trip as far as Ottawa or Kingston.

To qualify for Lanark

Transportation's services, the client needs to verify their family income, which would be through their tax notice of assessment.

"Even if a client cannot provide documentation right away, we will not deny their services," says Bird. "A client can get their first trip without documentation if they do not have immediate proof of income."

Lanark Transportation also now has a computeraided dispatch system.

With this, it is better equipped to handle lastminute appointments, and offer rides more efficiently.

New Look, Better Access Lanark Transportation's extended service has been highlighted through a major rebrand exercise, led by the local company Smiling Cat Inc. The orga-

nization created a new logo, marketing materials and vehicle graphics that dress up the fleet, giving it a distinct and professional look. As well, the relaunched website is more user-friendly for its clients - allowing them to book rides online.

"The rebranding was important to increase our profile in the community.

We're so happy to have worked with Tracy Noonan of Smiling Cat to showcase exactly who we are and what we do," says Bird.

"Our goal is to make transportation an accessible avenue for our community, and we're living out our goal one ride at a time."

For further information or to book a trip, phone 1877-445-5777.

wise to make sure you and your vacation crew get on the road in time.

Don't assume your regular shop can get you in with little warning. A myriad of circumstances can conspire to ruin almost any plan (remember Murphy's law). Repair shops, just like many other facilities run on reduced staff in the summer months due to vacation absences. And as it's becoming harder and harder for all service departments to attract and maintain qualified and licensed staff, the idea of bringing on temp techs to fill gaps is pretty much a pipe dream.

Specialty work such as airconditioning and transmission repairs can make this even worse, as not every

BRIAN TURNER Column

technician is qualified or licensed to do certain jobs. A good rule of thumb is to at least double the amount of warning that your regular shop needs when arranging summer repairs.

If your plans involve towing a trailer of some type and either the trailer or vehicle is new to this summer's excursions, make sure you have the correct hookup hardware and wiring connections.

Even if you're using the same vehicle/trailer setup as in past years, take the time to do a complete

checkup on all the lights, electric brakes (if equipped), tire condition and air pressure, and of course the spare tire and jack and tools. Check your trailer's wheel bearings to see if they require seasonal maintenance, or if that service is due. A 12-volt plugin air compressor is a great tool to keep on hand, not just for tire emergencies but to inflate air mattresses and beach toys.

If your ride develops any type of symptom to worry you, call your shop as soon as it arises to get the best chance to obtain a repair. You can imagine the response you might get from a service consultant when you tell him or her that mysterious noise

started a few weeks back and you're just calling about it now, two days before your trip.

The Ontario government announced on July 11 that it's ending the rebate plan for electric and hybrid vehicle purchases or leases. This is sure to put a damper on the sales of alternative powered vehicles. Whether or not you thought it was a wise use of provincial funds to give $14,000 to a vehicle owner who could afford an $80,000 electric luxury vehicle, this move will reduce the ability of those who want to lower their carbon footprint. Perhaps the U.S. model was better as they reduced and eventually eliminated their subsidies based on electric vehicle sales. As models became more popular, the rebates

went down. This was all agreed to in advance to give automakers a chance to adjust their marketing and pricing to capture enough sales to create a critical mass for efficient production.

OPINION

MOTHER ALWAYS KNEW THE CURE FOR MARY'S BOREDOM KNITTING HATED DISHCLOTHS WAS A TASK TO AVOID, COLUMNIST RECALLS

knitting a dishcloth was one I loathed, so I thought long and hard before I ever said to Mother I was bored and there was nothing to do!

If my sister was too busy to play with me, or I couldn't talk my friend Velma into coming over to play, or it was too hot, or for some other reason, I was bored and couldn't think of a thing to do, the result of complaining to Mother was far worse than sitting in the swing in the grape arbour twiddling my thumbs.

So that meant I had to dream up something in a hurry, or Mother would go to the cupboard for me and haul down the ball of string and the knitting needles.

Sometimes I would drag all my dolls out to the grape arbour, and set them down in rows and pretend I was Miss Crosby from the Northcote School.

Of course, one had to be bad Marguirite, and I wasn't

Never ever, did I say to Mother, "I'm bored, and there's nothing to do" without her casting her eyes toward the back wall cupboard. All she had to do was look at it, and I knew what was in store for me. Only too well I knew she would say: "Get the string and knit a dishcloth."

How I hated knitting dishcloths! First of all, I couldn't knit well. Not like my sister Audrey who could whip up a dishcloth in the blink of an eye, or knit a pair of socks in a couple of evenings. For me, the job of

above taking my ruler and slapping the little hand on the doll, which gave me great satisfaction. But talking to dolls who didn't answer me soon caused me to lose interest in playing school. So, unfortunately, I tired of pretending the grape arbour was a school, and I would gather up my dolls and head back into the house, being awfully careful not to let out a big sigh passing Mother because of the threat of her curing me of my boredom!

Playing jacks on the cement at the pump wasn't nearly as much fun playing alone, as it would be with a friend, but that helped fill in the time for a bit. Then the day I lost the little red ball down the pump hole made me especially careful, and leery about the whole idea of going out and spending a bit of time playing jacks at the pump.

I could always go find my pet chicken, but she did lit-

tle to amuse me. She was an odd one all right. There wasn't a feather on her body ... as bald as a badger she was. My brother Emerson said she was a freak, but that made me love her more dearly. As soon as I picked her up, she would fall dead asleep, so other than stroke her warm, bare body, there wasn't much fun there.

My sister Audrey and I often lay out on the grass when there were soft tufts of clouds in the sky and we would try to figure out what shape they were, or what they would turn into as they floated above us. Audrey was much smarter than I was at it though, so watching clouds alone held no interest for me at all.

And then there was Scruff the old barn cat.

She'd be good for a spell of something to do, but she was a cagey one all right, and ever since I dressed her up in some of my dolls' clothes, and scared the life

out of her, she ran and hid when she saw me coming.

Soon I would feel sorry for myself. There was Velma with a house full of sisters and brothers ... no time for her to be bored. And my other little friend Joyce ... she had a playhouse! Imagine! A playhouse! If I had one of those, I could spend hours pretending to bake cakes or sitting in the tiny little chair rocking my dolls to sleep. Just thinking of either Joyce or Velma only added to my misery.

That's when I would drag myself back into the kitchen. And it didn't take Mother all day to figure out I was bored, and couldn't find anything to help pass away the afternoon. All she

had to do was look at me, cast her eyes toward the cupboard, and without even saying a word, I didn't need her to tell me to go fetch the ball of string and start knitting another hateful dishcloth.

Next month, Smiths Falls Pride will host their inaugural Pride Festival in town.

On Aug. 18, at 5 p.m., the Pride parade will depart from town hall to Centennial Park, where festival goers will be treated to a potluck dinner supported by Smiths falls Trinity United Church and the Local Immigration Partnership program, which will be followed by a dance. The next morning, a brunch will be hosted. The location for this has yet to be determined.

"Being different sometimes makes a person feel very depressed because they assume they are the only one like it," said James Perkins, of Smiths Falls Pride, during his delegation to council on Monday, July 16. "As such, a mass public gathering to show that there's plenty of people sharing your (differences) serves a purpose of showing to all those who are alike that they aren't alone."

Perkins confronted a recent question posed to him: "I'm all for people being different but why do you need a parade?"

Perkins, in a heartfelt response, explained that straight people don't need a parade.

SMITHS FALLS SKATE PARK OFFICIALLY NAMED THE CHIEF LARRY HARDY MEMORIAL SKATEBOARD PARK EVELYN HARFORD ehar ford@metroland.com Smiths Falls' skate park has been officially named the Chief Larry Hardy Memorial Skateboard Park.

The unveiling of the new sign was made on Tuesday, July 17. Larry Hardy, the former Smiths Falls police chief, who passed away last April after a valiant battle with lung disease with his devoted wife Khris, and their daughter Khristal by his side, was integral to the development and construction of the skate park that was ultimately opened in 2006. Hardy, along with former Smiths Falls mayor Dennis Staples and others, consulted with local youth about what they'd like to see in town. At the top of their list was a skate park.

And so, Hardy made that a reality.

Staples and former town councillor, Jack Traynor, brought the idea forward to rename the skate park in honour of Hardy after Hardy's passing.

Council agreed.

"This (the skate park) wouldn't be here without

him," said Traynor. "He worked hard for this."

Hardy's widow Khris spoke with tears in her eyes at the unveiling.

Smiths Falls police Chief Mark MacGillivray unveils the new sign for the Chief Larry Hardy Memorial Skateboard Park on Tuesday, July 17, alongside Smiths Falls Mayor Shawn Pankow. - Evelyn Harford/ Metroland "He would be very proud," she said of her late husband. "We miss him, but we know he's here."

Smiths Falls Mayor Shawn Pankow called the dedication to Hardy, who spent the last 22 years of his nearly four decades of policing in Smiths Falls, a "very fitting and permanent legacy."

Since the skate park was built, area youth have gotten good use out of the asset that gives them an outlet and place to gather.

"These skate parks are awesome," said Smiths Falls police officer, Const.

Tyler Brett. "They (the young skateboarders) might not know it now, but it (skateboarding) teaches

you patience."

Skateboarders try over and over and over again to complete new tricks and achieve their goals. Brett himself grew up skateboarding as a teen in Gananoque. Brett said he didn't have a skate park to go to back then, instead using the streets and curbs.

"A lot of people go here because they have nowhere else to go," said Logan Seguin, 16, who skateboards at the park.

Skateboarders make good use out of Smiths Falls' skate park - now named the Chief Larry Hardy Memorial Skateboard Park. The park was formally dedicated to the former Smiths Falls police chief on Tuesday, July 17. - Evelyn Harford/Metroland Skateboarding is an individual sport that fosters community. And, thanks to Hardy, the youth of Smiths Falls have a skate park where they can meet up, skate and learn perseverance and patience.

"It's a good place to go," echoed another skateboarder, Connor Kelly. "Everyone fits in here."

Ray Healey, founder of Healey Transportation, passed away peacefully at his home on Friday, July 13, at age 97.

Smiths Falls Mayor Shawn Pankow recognized Healey's many contributions to the community at their council meeting on Monday, July 16.

"Anybody in the community who's been here for their school years would have ridden one of Ray's buses probably for years and maybe thousands of times," said Pankow. "Ray was a very well respected and well-loved man."

Healey was born on Connaught Hill, Toledo in 1921. He grew up on the family farm at Connaught Hill, near Toledo and was educated at Mitchell School and Athens High School. Ray worked on the family farm until he was 18 years old. He was instrumental in having hydro installed at the farm and was one of the first farms to receive it.

Healey and his first wife Donna Burns worked tirelessly, along with Monsignor O'Hearn and many families, to see the first Catholic school, St. Joseph's Catholic School, in Toledo come to fruition.

Healey was the inaugural chair of the school.

Healey was an active member of the Elvin Lockwood's Orchestra for some 20 years or more. He played the saxophone, fiddle, and piano in the musical group and entertained at many dances and marriages throughout the former Lanark, Leeds & Grenville counties.

In the following years, Healey turned his attention to working at a cheese factory for five years in Plum Hollow. In addition, Ray and his first wife Donna ran a mail route in To-

partments for tankers and manpower. In all, seven tankers hauled water to the scene.

After about two hours, the fire was under control and G. Tackaberry & Sons were contracted to break down the structure so firefighters could quickly extinguish any hot spots.

Loss of livestock Sharon and Edward Cavanagh have owned the property since 1995. Sharon was outside doing yard work when she smelled smoke.

"I came around the house and the front part of the roof was in flames," she said. She immediately called 911.

She said the main barn

was a stone structure approximately 100 feet with a smaller one connected by a walkway, and a large hay mow.

Much of the family's herd of show goats were in a back field at the time of the fire, but she stated approximately 40 goats, a horse and a cow were lost.

A llama also suffered injuries.

"Our goats are show animals that we show competitively," Sharon explained. "They are $400 to $500 a head, so they are high quality goats."

Some trailers and a tractor were also destroyed in the blaze.

It was unknown at press time what caused the fire.

"To put up a barn of that size again, it would proba-

bly be about half a million dollars," Sharon said, noting the family does have insurance.

She praised the efforts of the fire department, who also ran a line from a tanker to give the herd of goats drinking water, and thanked friends and neighbours for their support.

"The fire department has been excellent and the neighbours have been outstanding. We've had neighbours offering pastures, barns and help moving animals," she remarked. " ...

And we have friends who came down from Napanee with their trailer asking us what they could do."

The fire department remained on scene until after 6:30 p.m.

The Town of Smiths Falls will try again to lobby province for canna-biz in town. The town is waiting on a reply from the province as to whether or not they'll be able to make a formal delegation at the Association of Ontario Municipalities (AMO) conference in August to advocate for a cannabis retail site within the municipality.

The town had lobbied the province before to allow for a retail store at Tweed's production facility in town. However, the former Liberal government denied the request.

Under the current framework, Ontario will open 40 Ontario Cannabis Stores (OCS) in 2018, growing to 80 by 2019, and up to 150 standalone cannabis stores by the end of 2020.

Stores will be complemented by an online channel that would provide all Ontarians with a safe and secure way to legally purchase cannabis following federal legalization.

Smiths Falls was not among the initial munici-

palities chosen to have an OCS. However, with a change in government, there is hope there might be a shift from the original denial the town received this spring. The province's newly elected premier, Doug Ford, has signalled he'd like to see a more "free market" approach to cannabis sales. Although Ford has indicated that the province will proceed with the OCS model at the outset of cannabis legalization, he's left the door open for other options. Cannabis will be legal in Canada on Oct. 17.

The town's chief administrative officer, Malcolm Morris, reported that the town has not yet received a response from the province about the requested AMO delegation.

"We will be advocating for a store on the Tweed campus," said Morris, in an emailed response to the Smiths Falls Record News.

"Signals from Premier Ford suggest they may be open to considering retail outlets beyond the OCS(s), so our pitch, in conjunction with Tweed, may get

more traction."

The minister's offices usually respond 10 to 14 days before the conference, which is scheduled to be held Aug. 19 to 22.

Cannabis tourism Caitlin O'Hara, communications specialist at Canopy Growth Corp, said that the company's goal is to establish their facility and Smiths Falls as a soughtafter cannabis tourism destination.

"Much like other tourist destinations where you 'exit through the gift shop' we hope to one day offer our products directly to our guests and visitors onsite," she said in an emailed response to this newspaper.

"Our ultimate goal is to provide the full experience at our Visitors Centre from exploring the history of the cannabis plant to witnessing the growth and development process and finishing with the opportunity to purchase product onsite."

O'Hara explained that whether the retail store is in the form of private retail or an OCS store depends on the new provincial government's legislation.

NEWS

OPEN AIR BURN BAN CONTINUES

TOWN REQUESTS PEOPLE TO REDUCE WATER USE The Town of Smiths Falls, along with numerous municipalities, are working with the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA) to monitor water levels in the Rideau River.

These monitoring activities have been initiated due to the significant decrease in flows in the overall watershed. The watershed is now at a moderate severity low water condition (Level 2) due to the lack of rainfall, which is only 60 per cent of the normal amount to date.

In a press release issued on Friday, July 20, the

Town of Smiths Falls asked residents and businesses to voluntarily reduce water consumption in areas of lawn watering and vehicle washing, along with being aware of water use during this seasonal challenge.

Significant rainfall over an extended duration is needed to impact the diminished watershed reserves. RVCA staff will continue to monitor conditions and communicate with water managers throughout the watershed via the Rideau Valley Water Response Team.

Residents and businesses can monitor conditions through local media and the Town of Smiths Falls website www.smithsfalls.ca and the RVCA website www.rvca.ca.

Meeting Schedule During the summer months Council holds one regular meeting per month, and working sessions are held as needed. Regular meetings will be held Monday July 16th and Monday August 13th; beginning at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers, 6544 New Dublin Road.

Members of the public are invited to attend all meetings.

News & Events Best Management Practices for Drinking Water Threats: Handling Hazardous Waste You have an important role to play in helping keep contaminants out of drinking water sources. To keep our community safe, always handle and dispose of hazardous wastes properly.

Hazardous liquids may be in products you use regularly, for example: • Paints, stains and coatings, nail polish removers, batteries, printing inks, cleaning and degreasing products, and pesticides.

A spill or leak from the handling or improper storage of hazardous liquids: • Could contaminate our drinking water sources.

• Is difficult and costly to clean up – complete cleanup is considered impossible.

• Could cause short and long term health effects.

To prevent a spill or leak, hazardous liquids should be stored in sealed containers with secure lids.

There are many product lines that are safer for your health and the environment. Look for products containing naturally occurring or plant-based materials.

• If alternative products cannot be found, only buy the amount you need. Do not dispose of hazardous liquids in your garbage.

The Smiths Falls Fire Department is continuing with a ban on open air burning, due to the continued dry conditions. The department released the reminder on Thursday, July 19.

The ban remains into effect and applies to all properties within Smiths Falls until further notice.

"No authorization to burn will be permitted during the burn ban," the department says."This is about fire prevention. The forecast shows the generally dry conditions are continuing, with little precipitation predicted for the area, so there is a higher risk of fire. If the current conditions continue, a complete burn ban will remain in place."

Smith Falls Fire Department would like to remind citizens of the following: . Remove all vegetation and other material that could spread the fire. . Never leave a fire unattended. . Keep your fire on a non-combustible surface and away from structures. . Have an adequate supply of water available to extinguish or control the fire. . Pay attention to wind conditions, smoke and potential spark hazards. . To be cautious when disposing of smoking materials.

As weather conditions and fire risk change, Smiths Falls Fire Department will continue to update the status of this open air burn ban.

COUNCIL

CUMMINGS WILL NOT SEEK RE-ELECTION EVELYN HARFORD ehar ford@metroland.com

Chris Cummings/Submitted Coun. Chris Cummings. couple of months of taking office "an unforeseen and rather shocking turn of events occurred." Hershey announced that they were shutting their factory in Smiths Falls, a loss that was compounded by the departure of Stanley's and the previously announced closure of the Regional Centre.

"The massive job loss the community experienced impacted so many families but there was also a devastating ripple effect that went through our business community," he said. "Our retail, manufacturing, hospitality, tourism and service industries were dramatically impacted as several other businesses closed or downsized."

Cummings said it was at this point he realized that his experience as a business banker and financial planner would be of value to the town. As a member of a team that included past

and present councils and town staff, Cummings said he encouraged long-term strategic planning.

"I knew we had to focus on economic development, tourism and arts and culture. I believe the dynamic turnaround we are experiencing today is a result of a number of council-lead initiatives and I was glad to be an active participant," he said. "With the return of jobs along with residential, commercial and industrial growth, the Town of Smiths Falls is in fantastic shape.

Our economic prospects have never been better. We have sound asset management and strategic plans that will carry us into the future."

But, said Cummings, of course, it isn't all rosy and subsequent councils will need to be mindful of the challenges that can come from dramatic change and the tremendous growth that Smiths Falls will experience.

"My hope is that every member of council will understand that they will need to be progressive when they make decisions," he said. "Our professional staff is second to none and they will need to consult with them and have an open mind as they present solutions to manage this community that is clearly 'on the rise.'"

Variety of pre-authorized plans are available.

Reminder that all penalties together with all 2017 and prior years’ taxes must be paid by December 31, 2018.

Longtime Smiths Falls Coun. Chris Cummings will not seek re-election in the next municipal election being held this October.

Cummings made the announcement at the town's council meeting on Monday, July 16.

"I put a great deal of thought into this and it was not an easy decision but in consultation with my family, I've come to conclusion that is time for me to step back," he said in a statement obtained by the Record News prior to his official announcement. "It has been both a pleasure and a privilege to serve the community as an elected official for the last 12 years. I have made a number of friends and gotten to know so many good people. I have a new understanding of municipal government and politics and have experienced a great deal of personal growth."

Cummings said that when he first decided to run for council, he considered it a natural progression from the work that he'd been doing as a community volunteer.

Cummings said he only expected to stay on council for one term since he never envisioned becoming a career politician, but within a

MUNICIPAL HERITAGE COMMITTEE IDENTIFIES MORE PROPERTIES OF INTEREST EVELYN HARFORD ehar ford@metroland.com Smiths Falls' municipal heritage committee is taking steps to protect historically significant properties in town. The heritage committee has identified more properties of interest, which they presented to council at their committee of the whole meeting on Monday, July 16, to make the case to add the selected properties in the town's downtown core and on Brockville Street to the eight properties of interested already listed in town.Listing properties of interest doesn't offer legal protection under the Ontario Heritage Act. However, listing a property does increase the time a municipality has to process a demolition permit from 10 to 60 days, to provide pause before taking down

a building identified as having historical value.

"Once they're gone, they're gone," said Chris McGuire, of the municipal heritage committee.

McGuire explained that listing properties is an important step to protecting properties of value in the community.

The four properties on Brockville Street are located between Lombard Street/Jasper Avenue and Elm Street, which are among some of the oldest properties in town.

PROPERTIES OF INTEREST ON BROCKVILLE STREET • The William Simpson House, 81 Brockville St. Nestled on the corner of Jasper Avenue and Brockville Street, William Simpson built this regency style villa around 1840. Simp-

son owned an extensive network of farms and was noted in 1847 for being one of the leading progressive farmers in the area. With his partner, Abel Russell Ward, he developed Smiths Falls as a village and milling centre. In 1833, Simpson worked with Ward to survey the town, subdividing 400 acres and laying out the wide Beckwith and Main streets in anticipation of future development.

This villa was built with Tuscan windows, twin verandas, large low French windows at the front of the house and a curving stone fence.

• The Adam Foster House, 84 Brockville St. Closer to the end of the 19th century, Adam Foster, owned and operated several mills on Jason Island with his partner, John B. Ward. By 1881 woollen, carding, saw and plaining mills were established on the island. By 1895 the roller mill could produce a capacity of 75 barrels of flour a day.

Foster also had a wharf on the island, where he sold coal and ran a steamboat.

In 1886, Foster was contracted to put a system of water pipes below Beckwith Street to provide water for the CPR yards. Over the next ten years he expanded the waterworks, selling the network to the town in 1899. Adam Foster was also the general manager of the Electric Light Company.

The combined lock in the heart of Smiths Falls is known as Foster's lock.

• The Matthew Ryan House, 102 Brockville St. This red brick house and carriage house was built in 1899 with Italianate features.

Matthew Ryan, was a major developer in the mid-1870s and led the housing boom after the arrival of the CPR yards. Ryan built the fire hall, the public market on Market and William streets, and the Carleton Place Town Hall.

Architecturally, the house displays several Italianate features, including the detailing around the windows, the ornate bracket style cornices under the eaves, the tall, narrow, segmentallyarched windows symmetrically paired on the second storey, the dichromatic brick trim, and the original tin roof. The veranda, which was added around 1900 is more Victorian in style.

• The John B. Ward House, 110 Brockville St. John B. Ward, was the son of Abel Russell Ward, one of the founders of Smiths Falls and the partner of Adam Foster.

Built in the late 1870s the house

Collage of various properties of interest identified by the Smiths Falls Municipal Heritage Committee presented at Smiths Falls town council on Monday, July 16.

Photos courtesy of the Municipal Heritage Committee is neo-classical and was constructed of brown cut sandstone.

It originally sat proudly on five acres of land. The house features an elegant front fac?ade with a double doorway. Some of the original decorated coloured glass around the doorway still exists, in the transom and the right panel.

In 1885 the property was purchased by Dr. J.S. McCallum, who reportedly owned the first residential telephone in Smiths Falls which connected with his surgery. He subdivided the property which resulted in the creation of Abel Street and Aberdeen Avenue.

DOWNTOWN PROPERTIES • The Washburn Block, southwest corner of Beckwith Street and Main Street This block features an Italianate commercial three-storey brick building, constructed from the late 1850s to early 1860s. The building on the corner is a great example of Italianate architecture as it was applied to commercial buildings. The fac?ade displays a motif which repeats several times across the building.

The repetitive cast-iron window cornices lend a fabricated, almost artificial style. These massproduced architectural elements provided a great quantity of details which were easily applied around windows and doors. The building also features double tiered brick corbelling and dichromatic quoins.

• The Alexander Clark House, 7 Main St. E. Alexander Clark came to Canada from Scotland in 1829. His business career spanned the years 1840 to 1876. In 1840 he established a wholesale and retail business in partnership with Archibald McArthur. In 1844 the prestige of Clark's business was raised considerably when he married into two of the oldest and settled families in Smiths Falls. Mary Bankier Maitland was the daughter of James Maitland, the wellknown magistrate and postmaster at Kilmarnock, and Rebecca Sly.

Alexander Clark built the substantial stone building at 17 Beckwith St. S. in the mid 1800s. Clark was one of the most prosperous and respected residents of Smiths Falls. Clark was a member of the first elected municipal council in 1854, and also served as the second reeve of Smiths Falls.

• The J.M. Clark Hardware Store, southeast corner of Beckwith Street and Main Street.

In 1871 his son, James M. Clark began work on the "granite block." The hardware store was constructed in the French Second Empire style.

The building features a mansard roof punctuated by dormers, an exterior enriched with classical mouldings and detail around the doors and large windows, and formal symmetrically balanced elements.

Cultural heritage value also lies in the association of this property with several generations of the Clark family.

• The Rideau Theatre, 1 Chambers St. Built in 1912 by Bert Soper, the Rideau was the first theatre built in Smiths Falls, and the only theatre to escape demolition. The theatre offered live performances and movies. Later renamed the Capitol Theatre, it closed in December 1949 and the equipment was moved to the newly built Soper Theatre on Main Street.

The Rideau Theatre was also the first flatiron shaped building constructed in Smiths Falls. Designed by architect J.M. McLennan of Brockville, it had a seating capacity of 850 and was designed for blockbuster releases that were previously available in the city. There were dressing rooms and baths in the basement, along with an orchestra pit.

Listing the property doesn't require owners to go through the heritage committee to obtain permission from the owners to list the properties. Listing a property doesn't mean that the owner would have to require permission to make renovations to their property or obtain council approval before making alteration.

SMITHS FALLS FIRE DEPARTMENT GETS HELP TO REDUCE FIRE AND CARBON MONOXIDE DEATHS THROUGH PROJECT ZERO Enbridge Gas Distribution, the Fire Marshal's Public Fire Safety Council and Smiths Falls Fire Department announced they are partnering to improve home safety and bring fire and carbon monoxide-related deaths down to zero on Monday, July 9.

Smiths Falls Fire Department received 120 combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms through Project Zero - a public education campaign that is providing more than 6,600 alarms to residents in 30 Ontario municipalities.

This year, Enbridge invested $200,000 in Project Zero.

"Each year we see the tragedy across Ontario from carbon monoxide poisoning," says fire Chief Rick Chesebrough. "By participating in Project Zero, and in partnership with the Fire Marshal's Public Fire Safety Council and Enbridge, our goal is to eliminate fatalities caused by carbon monoxide.

Smiths Falls Fire Department is committed to ensuring all residents and visitors are informed and are aware of the dangers."

"We appreciate the support from Enbridge and the Fire Marshal's Public Fire Safety Council in helping to keep our citizens safe.

We know these alarms save lives and having these units free for people in

Smiths Falls will give all of us comfort that so many more homes and so many more children are better prepared for the unexpected," says Smiths Falls Mayor Shawn Pankow.

Since 2009, 34,384 alarms have been provided to Ontario fire departments as part of Project Zero.

When properly installed and maintained, combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms help provide the early warning that is needed to safely escape from a house fire or carbon monoxide exposure.

Carbon monoxide is a toxic, odourless gas that is a byproduct of incomplete combustion of many types of common fuels. It is important that all fuel-burn-

ing equipment be properly maintained to prevent carbon monoxide buildup.

Carbon monoxide alarms are recommended as a second line of defence to protect against the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning.

"We have proof that prevention saves lives. Knowing this, we remain committed to educating our customers about the importance of installing a combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarm, as well as properly maintaining fuel-burning equipment," says Debra Donovan, Enbridge Gas Distribution.

"It is essential that Ontarians protect themselves and their families from carbon monoxide poisoning,"

says Ross Nichols, Ontario Fire Marshal and Chair of the Fire Marshal's Public Fire Safety Council. "By installing carbon monoxide alarms in their home on every level and adjacent to sleeping areas - residents can help prevent needless tragedies. Project Zero is an invaluable program that helps fire departments educate residents in their community about carbon monoxide alarms."

VALLEY CUSTOM CUTTING CELEBRATES TWO YEARS IN BUSINESS IN SMITHS FALLS EVELYN HARFORD ehar ford@metroland.com Valley Custom Cutting in Smiths Falls celebrated their second anniversary over the weekend - hosting an anniversary bash at their location on Lombard Street on Saturday, July 14, with local vendors and a barbecue on tap outside, and special instore deals inside.

Owners Angie and Dan Hoysted first opened two years ago, filling an important gap created by the closure of Rideau Meats in 2016. By opening Valley Custom Cutting owners Angie and Dan Hoysted were hoping to help fill that gap and help local customers and producers in the process.

Opening the business "has been everything we thought it would be and more," said Angie.

Since opening, they've noticed that people care about sourcing local meat products.

"People are definitely asking more questions," said Dan, who explained that they've noticed people are more concerned with

Evelyn Harford/Metroland Valley Custom Cutting in Smiths Falls celebrated their second anniversary on Saturday, July 14, 2018. Pictured here, owners Angie and Dan Hoysted stand behind the counter at their store on Lombard Street. The anniversary bash also showcased local vendors in the parking lot and special in-store deals. how the meat was raised, who raised it and where it was raised.

Right now, the company has over 40 local producers' products on offer. And, it's not just meat.

The store features many different locally made and harvested products such as milk, cheese, eggs, sauces, oils and vegetables in the summer. Angie said by offering local products, they're helping customers get access to what they want - including cus-

tom work such as butchery, as their name would suggest, and packaging."More and more people are realizing we do custom work," said Dan. "People have been asking for things they haven't been able to find."If a customer has a question or is looking for something specific - the couple encourages them to ask.

"If it's possible, let's make it happen," Dan said.

COMMUNITY

THERAPEUTIC CENTRE OPENS SENIOR DAY PROGRAM PEPOA's programs from Perth to Smiths Falls, made possible with funds from our very generous donors. We look forward to seeing their new program succeed."

The Smiths Falls Senior's Day program will run every Thursday from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 91 Cornelia St. W, Cornelia Court, Suite 110, Smiths Falls.

The Smiths Falls program will mirror the already successful program being offered in Perth, four days a week. PEP offers a therapy centred program for its participants which includes socialization, physical and cognitive therapy and activities which will improve function and emotional stimulation.

Participants receive a midmorning snack, and a hot lunch each day they are at the program for the cost of $35.00 per day.

The day program has two primary goals directed toward the enrichment of the lives of both the participants and their caregivers: (1) To enhance and/or maintain the functioning level (physi-

cal, social, emotional and cognitive) of older adults on an individual basis in concert with input from their health-care providers and family.

(2) To provide respite, encouragement and education for family/caregivers of our participants.

"The board and staff of PEP are very excited about introducing our senior day programming to the Smiths Falls and area community.

“We value the support we are able to offer our clients but also the support that we are able to give the caregivers of our participants, stated Pauline Fitchett, executive director, PEP. A huge thank - you to United Way Lanark County for their support of this new program.

If you would like to learn more about our programming please give us a call, visit our website at www.morepep.ca or stop by to say hello at either our Smiths Falls or Perth location.

The Perth Enrichment Program for Older Adults is pleased to announce that they will be offering a Thursday Senior Day Program in Smiths Falls.

The successful Perth Enrichment Program (PEP) Senior Day Program has been offered in Perth for over four years.

PEP has continued to grow to meet the needs of seniors in the Perth community while striving to support their desire to stay at home longer.

The Smiths Falls day program is supported in part by United Way Lanark County.

"One of United Way Lanark County's priority goals - successful aging - is to help ensure seniors are able to stay in their homes and remain engaged in the community, while all caregivers feel supported," notes advisory council chair Helen McIntosh.

"Programs like the one run by the Perth Enrichment Program for Older Adults (PEPOA) helps those seniors in need within our community. The United Way is excited about the expansion of
