Village Voice The Promoter reserves the right to edit Letters to the Editor for length and clarity. Please include your email or mailing address and daytime phone number (not for publication). All opinions expressed are those of the writer.

WILD RICE IS A HOT TOPIC

Editor’s Note: In our June 27 issue, we printed a letter from H.B. Walsh entitled “Defending the Walleye.” In the letter, Mr. Walsh referenced wild rice on Pigeon Lake that resulted in several responses from our readers. In response to H.B. Walsh’s recent letter in The Promoter, the accusation that planting and harvesting wild rice is about monetary gain and personal vendetta is problematic. First Nations have legitimate and lawful treaty rights to plant and harvest wild rice and it is an important element of maintaining culture and food security using traditional foods. Harvesting and processing wild rice is an incredibly labour intensive undertaking and Save Pigeon Lake’s position would make wild rice essentially unattainable as a food source for First Nations and Settlers alike. The statements made indicate a disregard for these treaty rights and a lack of understanding of the treaty responsibilities we all have, including a responsibility to respect the lands and waters of the Kawarthas. We must never forget that Indigenous people have been caretakers of the area for thousands of years but have allowed non-Indigenous people to live, visit, cottage, etc. on their traditional homeland. S. McMullen, Fenelon Falls

To add to H.B. Walsh’s input from June 27, scientific studies have indeed found that areas of a lake with wild rice growing in it have lower oxygen levels in water than similar areas in the same lake with other plant life. However, they have also determined that the total abundance of invertebrates and fish in wild rice areas of a lake is higher in early summer than in the non-wild rice areas of the same lake. By

August, both areas had comparable overall abundance of invertebrates and fish (MK Lowden, 2005; C.S. Lavergne, 2006 – both U of Manitoba). So, although counter-intuitive, these studies indicate that the lower oxygen levels have not impacted the abundance of fish in lakes. On the other hand, wild rice is a rich source of food and habitat for other creatures such as water fowl and muskrats and can be a healthy food for humans, too. Wild rice in our lakes is arguably more a natural part of local ecological evolution than human control of lake levels, shoreline clearing for homes and cottages and the use of pesticides, fertilizers and even motor boats and jet skis. S. Telford, Kawartha Lakes

I deeply regret the letter that I submitted to The Promoter on the wild rice issue, not because of anything I said but because of the letter that followed. After making what appears to be a number of rational arguments, H.B. Walsh ends with an unsubstantiated accusation that a First Nations harvester is somehow carrying out a personal vendetta. There are ideological differences between members of Save Pigeon Lake and First Nations harvesters with their many supporters. To make it personal is to pour gasoline on an already heated situation. In fact, I hesitate to submit this letter, lest it lead to more of the same. D. Milligan, Trent Lakes

ANOTHER NOVELIST

I was most interested to read your article in The Promoter of June 27th about L.A. Walker and the release of her first novel “ Seven Wolves of the Sun”. I wish her every success in her literary career. As a fellow writer I know full well how difficult it is to break into this field. Writing is not too hard, although it does require a certain amount of discipline. Getting the darned material published is a different kettle of fish. I wrote non-fiction for many years and was fortunate to get over 20 lengthy articles published in “The Journal of the Royal Artillery”, an internationally recognized bi-annual magazine published in the U.K. Actually my success in that area prompted me to re-visit some of the fiction that I had written years earlier and to write more. My first Western novel, “The Pinfire Lady”, was released in May of this year and a sequel is coming out at the end of July. In all I have had five novels written in the past 12 months and all have been accepted for publication. Not too bad for an 85-year-old writer, eh! P.J.Gallagher, Woodville

SERVICES WARNING

City Hall

By Kirk Winter

There’s more news from City Hall than there was space in the printed version of The Kawartha Promoter. Additional articles can be found on our website: www.thepromoter.ca. As promised to City of Kawartha Lakes residents, Council returned to three key by-laws/protocols that have been bedeviling the City since they were implemented as long ago as 2005. Recommendations were made about the direction the City should be going with regard to mandatory water connections, high water bill adjustments and maintenance of unassumed roads especially in the winter.

Mandatory Water Connections

Mr. Troy Karkoulas presented the reasons why he believes the mandatory hookup by-law should be scrapped. Karkoulas said it would cost almost $20,000 to connect his home to the City water and sewer infrastructure, even though his property has an excellent artesian well and functioning septic. He also said he doesn’t want his family exposed to the chemicals the City adds to the water to make it safe. Karkoulas told Council he finds it frustrating that he is being forced to pay for access to municipal water and sewage, and has no intention of ever using them. He concluded by stating that many of the 134 other homes in the City that have been forced to pay for the right to have municipal water connections have acquiesced and done so because they were told that the water fees were less than the cost of fighting CKL in court. Mr. Chad McGinty bought a home with a good well and functioning septic system, and has no interest in accessing the municipal infrastructure. McGinty, a general contractor, told Council that older homes are difficult and expensive to connect to modern day infrastructure that is almost exclusively designed for new builds. He believes the mandatory hook up order has made his home less valuable as a new owner could

be responsible for an actual hook up, if either the well or septic fails, rather than simply repairing the well or septic. McGinty believes the by-law, “is not Canadian, and violates his Charter Rights.” Many Councillors wanted to discuss the issues surrounding this by-law that forces individuals to pay a monthly surcharge if they have municipal water and sewer available at their property line, even if they have not hooked up to it. There are 134 properties in CKL that are currently paying this surcharge while remaining on well and septic. The by-law also says that if either the well or septic fails, the property owner is financially responsible for hooking up to municipal services within 30 days of failure. The City has tried to be sensitive to the needs of these individuals by slow rolling this by-law, and twice revising the by-law to make it less punitive. However, a group of Councillors led by Pat Dunn believe that forcing people to pay for a service they neither want nor need is simply unfair. Councillors Yeo, Dunn, O’Reilly, Ashmore, Deputy Mayor Elmslie and Mayor Letham parsed the by-law making many suggestions regarding the legislation. What seems likely is that when the final decision is made with staff input in late September, the by-law will remain to cover all new builds in the City, but the 134 homes currently being forced to pay the surcharge may be exempted from that payment from this point forward. There seems to be a critical mass on Council to amend rather than rescind the by-law.

Service on Seasonal Roads

Mr. Ellery Batula was in attendance representing the residents of 65 homes and cottages on North Shore Road which fronts Head Lake. Mr. Batula is very concerned with correspondence with his Councillor and the City about the road losing its grading, gravelling and winter maintenance services. Both Batula and Councillor Yeo were relieved to discover that the road in question is a private road, with an

annual service agreement with the City. As long as the Head Lake residents keep the road accessible for the City equipment to safely service the road, the contract will roll over into 2020 and service will not change. There are few issues in the City that cause more consternation than roads and road maintenance. There are three different kinds of roads in the City: fully assumed, unassumed and private. Fully assumed are the property of the City and are regularly maintained all year. Private roads are owned typically by cottage associations. In the winter, particularly, the cottage association has a service agreement with CKL that says as long as the road is safe for city trucks, City employees will plow the roads. The roads that are problematic for the City are unassumed roads. These are owned by the City, but the City provides no grading, gravelling or snow plowing. There are 135 miles of unassumed roads in varying state of repair that the City refuses to service. City staff have sought legal opinion about not servicing these roads, and have been told they are not legally liable for their upkeep now or in the future. The City claims there has been little negative feedback from citizens who live on these unassumed roads. Councillor Yeo wondered why Mink Alley and Foulson Crescent in Ward One, that had been receiving winter maintenance as unassumed roads, were now being struck off the list. Yeo wanted these two roads exempted. Deputy Mayor Elmslie wondered why, if the City had historically maintained a road, it would suddenly

be removed from the service schedule as one had in his ward. Elmslie felt that those kind of unilateral decisions were unfair to residents. Elmslie also seemed concerned that the City had not sought out a lawyer like Russell Christie, whose opinions on legal matters regarding roads and municipal liability are respected province wide. Staff responded that the advice they can now get from inhouse experts makes bringing someone else in for a legal opinion superfluous.

City staff are currently mapping the approximately 4,400 individual roads in CKL. They hope to have that project done in the next two years. Once the City has a complete handle on assumed, private and unassumed roads, CKL may revisit their policies on which specific roads receive what levels of maintenance. Councillor Yeo asked again that Mink Alley and Foulson Crescent be added back to the list of roads serviced, and that no further decision about their status be taken until the road mapping project is done. More discussion about the lack of service that unassumed roads received will be featured at the next regular council meeting.

High Water Bill Adjustment

This by-law, approved by Council in 2017, was put in place. It offers homeowners one-time relief on a water bill that was at least two times the normal consumption from the year previous, with no obvious reason for the sudden spike in consumption. The

increase in water consumption must be typically an error in reading the water meter, a malfunctioning water meter, an obvious or hidden leak or any other factor that may be unexplainable. Since the by-law was passed, 59 cases have been approved by the City refunding almost $35,000 to those individuals. To qualify for the refund on their water bill, the homeowners had to prove the repair of the problem had been made and the problem was rectified. Under the current by-law, the minimum adjustment that would be considered is $50 and the maximum adjustment was $5,000. City staff has suggested revising the by-law, making a few key changes. A proposed outline of the new bylaw may look something like this: • To qualify for a rebate, the water problem must be completely beyond the homeowner’s control. Leaking toilets and malfunctioning water softeners would be taken off the list of potential culprits for a high water adjustment; with leaking underground piping almost the only cause remaining that is acceptable. • All property types, not just single family homes, will be eligible for a one-time only high water adjustment. • The refund will only be for one billing cycle of three months. • There will be a $1,500 cap, and only one claim can be made from an individual property. Mayor Letham liked many of the components proposed and suggested that anyone with more than a $1,500 overage due to leaking pipes could come directly to Council for assistance. Much more discussion on this issue will occur when staff brings back a report in late September.

WASTE IN TRENT LAKES

In a Facebook post on July 17, the Municipality of Trent Lakes issued this statement: “Please be advised that at their Regular Council meeting held July 16, 2019, Council amended the Waste By-Law B2016-142 to suspend the quarterly restrictions for the current waste card, effective July 1 quarter onwards for a one-year trial.”

MAKING IT RIGHT FOR FARMERS’ MARKETS

By Deb Crossen

As many of you know, I am a huge supporter of local farmers’ markets. In our July 11 issue, we printed an article about safety of buying food at farmers’ markets. The content was taken from Health Canada’s website. Some of this content, we’ve learned, does not apply to Ontario markets. We received the information below from Kathy Martin of the Fenelon Falls Farmers’ Market. “No farmers market can sell chicken eggs without being government graded, or can any farm or farmers market sell any unpasteurized dairy products in Ontario. Beef and poultry both have to be government inspected, approved, stamped and labelled before they are sold to the public. All farmers markets in Ontario must abide by the rules, laws and regulations set out by Farmers Market Ontario and the Health and Safety Board.” We apologize to our local market organizers for any errors in the content we printed.

MIDNIGHT MADNESS 2019

One of the events that I look forward to every year is Bobcaygeon’s Midnight Madness. This year’s edition takes place Saturday, August 3. The fun starts at 7pm as local merchants and other vendors take to streets to help you with your retail therapy needs. But it’s not just about shopping. There’s a Kids’ Zone with inflatables and activities for all ages. This year, they include a Rock Climbing Wall, Inflatable Pirate Ship bouncer and Inflatable Ice Cream Truck Bouncer, face painting and, from the Bobcaygeon Curling Club, Street Curling. You can also enjoy live music on the patio at Stewart Morrison Insurance and in the parking lot between Pick ‘n’ Save and Godfather’s Pizza. As well, restaurants in the town will be open to help you rest between stops. Bolton Street will be closed for the event, but

there’s lots of parking on the side streets within easy walking distance of the action. Merchants along King and Main Streets are also participating, so don’t forget to take a stroll their way. The Bobcaygeon Midnight Madness (BMM) Committee is comprised of volunteers and local merchants that dedicate their time each year to plan and organize this historic event for the community and tourists to enjoy.

NOT SO PRETTY FLOWERS

By Maryon Allen

As a cyclist I enjoy the northern rail trail, from Lindsay toward Fenelon Falls. Recently, I noticed a new flower which was very widespread in the area of the trail past the bridge at Ken Reid. It was a pretty white flower, very tall and grew in clumps. Curious, I Googled it when I got home and found out it was Poison Hemlock, a non-native plant originally from Eurasia. It is extremely toxic when ingested. As well, skin and respiratory symptoms have been reported. Imagine my surprise when I saw clumps of it along the trail behind a neighbourhood on William St. N. in Lindsay. The City must have been aware of it and appear to have removed some of the clumps, but there are still some plants at the back of residents’ properties along the section north of Orchard Park Blvd. The plants resemble Queen Anne’s Lace, but can grow 6 to 10 feet tall. They have a smooth purplish streaked stem and toothed fern-like leaves. The flowers are small and white and arranged in umbrellashaped clusters on ends of branched stems. Queen Anne’s Lace flowers later, generally grows about 3 feet tall and has “hairy” stems. As well, there is usually one purple flower in the centre of the single flower head, one per stem. It is interesting to note that Queen Anne’s Lace is considered a non-native invasive species in North America, although it is benign.

GRAND OLE OPRY COMES TO BOBCAYGEON

By Leisa Way

To share the Opry’s history is to share the story of country music. What began as a simple radio broadcast in 1925 is today a live entertainment phenomenon. The Grand Ole Opry showcases a mix of country legends and the contemporary chart-toppers who have followed in their footsteps. You can see it live at Globus Theatre (The LAB) in Bobcaygeon from July 31 to August 10 (14 roof-raising performances). The Canadian songbird (that’s me, Leisa Way) and my phenomenally talented Wayward Wind Band have brought Canada many great shows, including last year’s Globus Theatre favourite, Across the Pond (The British Invasion). We have toured Canada with other shows including Sweet Dreams (Patsy Cline), Rhinestone Cowgirl (Dolly Parton) and our acclaimed Canada 150 show that toured to 44 cities across the country. This latest concert, Opry Gold, features the hottest country songs from the last few decades, highlighting

artists who have played the Opry stage, with our usual trademark that makes the shows so popular -- telling the stories of the songs. For tickets contact 705-738-2037 or www. globustheatre.com.

A MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S DREAM AT KSV

Driftwood Theatre, who bring live, outdoor theatre across Ontario with a contemporary Canadian take on Shakespeare, will celebrate their 25th Anniversary this summer in 22 cities across southern Ontario. Their tour will include a performance on August 2 at Kawartha Settlers’ Village. For their 25th season, Driftwood Theatre will present A (musical) Midsummer Night’s Dream, an a cappella slant on William Shakespeare’s most popular comedy. Shakespeare’s most popular comedy is the perfect outdoor summer theatre experience for the entire family. Originally created by Driftwood in 2004 and performed again in 2012, A (musical) Midsummer Night’s Dream is a colourful, upbeat, jazz-infused musical celebration of theatrical proportions; with everything performed live and entirely a cappella using the magical quality of voice. “It’s about community, companionship and love,” remarks Driftwood Artistic Director Jeremy Smith. “Dream reminds us of the importance of putting down our devices, stepping away from our screens, and making the kind of tangible connections which encourage empathy, understanding and respect.” The performance begins at 7:30pm and admission is by donation (a suggestion of $20 per person) to support the troupe.

Horoscopes

July 25 to August 7

Melodie McCullough

Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19) The small issues will soon be forgotten, Aquarius. Please don’t dwell on them for too long. Move on. Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20) NEVER be afraid to ask for help or advice, dear Pisces. There are many, many people who would gladly lend you their ear. Make good use of this. Aries (March 21 to April 20) “While we breathe, we will hope”: Barack Obama. It is often hard to believe there is any point in ‘hope’, when all seems lost. Yet, we must. Sometimes it is all we have. Taurus (April 21 to May 21) Don’t ever forget, Taurus, that ‘everyone has a story’. There are usually parts of a person’s life that we don’t know about – and these ‘parts’ can often be the reason for their curious behaviour. Show compassion. Gemini (May 22 to June 22) Positive thoughts lead to positive outcomes. Remember to ‘look on the bright side’, Gemini. A change in attitude can work wonders. Cancer (June 23 to July 23) The beginning of this phase may be difficult, Cancer, but by the end of the phase you won’t even remember your problems. So, keep looking ahead.

James Goodliff www.JamesGoodliff.ca

Leo (July 24 to Aug. 23) The eighth moon of Creation is the Thimbleberry Moon or Full Sturgeon Moon in Canada’s Indigenous people’s calendar. The Thimbleberry is connected to the Spirit World and allows us to also connect to it at this time. Take note, Leo. Virgo (Aug. 24 to Sept. 23) The colour green may play a significant role in your comings and goings during this phase, Virgo. But we predict good things will occur. Libra (Sept. 24 to Oct. 23) If you find yourself doubting your talents and abilities, Libra, we have one word for you – don’t! You only fail if you quit, so you must, of course, keep on going. Scorpio (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22) Things got you down, Scorpio? Feeling overwhelmed at work? Please do something just for YOU – whatever it is, it is not silly and it will be well-worth it. Start today. Sagittarius (Nov. 23 to Dec. 21) Time for a holiday, Sag! Maybe head home and get back to your roots – and surprise someone special at the same time. Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) You will have to put in some intense work, Capricorn, for a short while but it will pay off, and you will have plenty of time to relax in the aftermath.

Good Stories from Curve Lake First Nation

The Road and the Rez

As told by Doug Williams to Julie Kapyrka

I often think of how Curve Lake has changed over time, physically or geologically, based upon more modern ways of building and development – in particular, roads. Much care must be given when developing on the land, and it is important to consider such things as building near areas like wetlands. One of the interesting things that happened in the early days was on what is known today as the Lance Woods Park area, or the Pow Wow grounds. It used to be the site of the first cabins that the federal government built years ago to attract First Nation members who were travelling up and down the lakes. They were living in no specific spot, but were moving constantly, because that was their lifestyle and they were living off the land. After settlement occurred, the government decided to try and attract First Nations to one place and they built those cabins. There’s no more of those cabins there, they have since moved into the centre of the village, as it is known now, and they had surveyed a village style pattern and built other houses and more

modern homes. But the interesting part of the early cabins is that in that area they also built kilns that are still there, remnants of them. They processed limestone and made it into lime that would be powdered and could be used in a mixture of cement to make chinking to go between the logs of the cabins and also other buildings like barns and sheds. You can still see that today. There’s an old road as evidence there in that area, too. It’s kind of an interesting place. Another area I remember fondly that has really changed over time is about halfway down the peninsula. That is where, when I was a kid, there was a creek running in there pretty steady all the time, a beautiful little creek. And we called it MUSHKE’AATIK ZIIBINS – Tamarack Creek. Behind the creek was a swamp we called Tamarack Swamp, or MUSHKEEGO’AATIGAAK. One of the women, who happens to be M’Koons’ wife (remember M’Koons?), was a very spiritual person who would gather water from this creek as a healing water and used that water for years. She somehow determined that there was a special source where that water came from. So my guess would be that there is an old prehistoric bog sitting in that area that perhaps should be considered if there is to be future planning in that area. It is an interesting spiritual spot but I noticed that the creek doesn’t flow as much anymore. It almost seems to have dried up. There are other areas where creeks have dried up, too. These are the types of changes that occur over time and I’m not sure if it’s due to climate change or the changes on the land like the road and changes to the lake levels. We have got to give a lot of thought to protect our wetlands, our lowlands, and our creeks. Because these are very important areas where our medicines grow. This is what gives us healing and helped us to not be sick over so many years. Another area that has changed over time is the area around the entrance to the First Nation - near where the gas stations are today. In that area there was a wetland and every spring it would create a lake, flooding in that area. Since the road was built in Curve Lake in 1969 that flooding had stopped happening. But once in a while, it shows up and wants to flood that area. And this past year I noticed it was not so different. There were some parts of laneways under water and I think it is because these land formations were not given as much consideration as they should have when the road went in – and we therefore then pay the price of inconsideration. Much has changed in Curve Lake since the modern road was built. Life was much different when there was just a dirt road coming into the village. Life was much more intriguing when even dirt roads did not exist in Curve Lake…but that is another story.

REACH INTO HISTORY

Submitted by Bev Jeeves

Fenelon Live is a member of Kawartha Works Community Co-operative, Inc. Last year, Fenelon Live put on a Simcoe Day Event that was very successful with over 4,000 people attending. This year, they are dedicating the event and its success to Bob Pennock, who was event Chair until he passed away in April. Simcoe Days 2019 “Reach Into History”, held the August long weekend throughout Fenelon Falls and area, is a community event open to all. Organizers are expanding this year’s event profile and reach by promoting awareness of settlement of Fenelon Falls and Simcoe’s influence in Canadian history before, during and after his role as First Lieutenant Governor of Upper Canada. 2019 is the “UN Year of Indigenous Languages” and settlers to Upper Canada and Lord Simcoe would have met many First Nations peoples. In honour of that, there will be exhibits of Mississaugas of the great Anishnaabeg (uhnish-nahbe) Nation. Curve Lake will be doing KAIROS Blanket Exercises; Brian Charles will give demonstrations of Wampum Diplomacy Belts and Kawartha Lakes Gallery will have an interactive display of Spirit Bears and their meaning. There will be an Open Mic Stage at “the Coral” on Francis Street and storytelling at Fenelon Falls Public Library on Market Street. There are free wagon rides all day Saturday. A parking lot and shuttle bus will be set up off Helen St./Hwy #8 at Bass Street. The “Incorporated Militia of Upper Canada” will

again have an 1812 encampment that will operate and be set up at Lock 34 of the Trent Severn Waterway the evening of August 2. On August 3, there will be three 1812 re-enactments and cannon exhibition/firing to coincide with the Peterborough Concert Band’s playing of “Tchaikovsky 1812 Overture.” At the conclusion of each, there will be an opportunity for children to participate within the encampment. This year, the encampment will be open to visitors on Friday night to allow visitors to see and participate in setting up and living in an encampment of 1812. The Fleming College Varsity Lumberjack team will be putting on various displays in woodcarving, axe throwing, competitions and pole rolling both on Lock 34 Island and also at the beach at the end of Oak Street. There will also be exhibits and interactive activities throughout the region, including Kawartha Settlers’ Village, Maryboro Lodge: the Fenelon Museum, Minden Fur Harvesters, TSW Youth Group, and Lindsay Legion. There will be free ice-cream from Kawartha Dairy from 2 to 4pm; Apple Pressing and Bee Pollinating. The Fenelon Museum will be hosting an exhibit on renowned local artist Anne Langton and will have children’s activities. There is also a social media campaign called “Reach Into History” to collect and emphasize Fenelon’s rich cottage history on the water, cottaging and events. We would love to share your stories on social media on our Facebook page “Simcoe Days 2019, Reach Into History”.

MUSIC COUNCIL NOTES

By April Scott

Concerts in the Park in Bobcaygeon are now in full swing, and the children and the adults seem to be enjoying the evenings. As an added incentive to attend, the Lions Club has obtained permission from Parks Canada to set up and provide hamburgers and more to the audience and others during the concert time. We would like to thank all of the sponsors and advertisers for supporting the Concerts in the Park. Without them, we could not achieve this. We’d also like to thank the attendees for the generous contributions to the Yellow Buckets each week. There are flyers distributed around the village which list all of the concerts, performers, sponsors and advertisers. Please pick one up if you happen to see them. Children’s concerts begin at 5:30pm, with the adult concert following at 6:30pm every Thursday in the park by Lock 32. For those people who are not aware, we had a very successful music camp held in Settlers’ Village. Organized and run by Bev Tombler, over 70 students from Bobcaygeon and area attended this camp. They have instruction all week long on many instruments and choral singing, culminating on Friday afternoon with a wonderful concert, where the students had the opportunity to show off their skills. This camp runs every year and plans are already in place for next year. Visit our Facebook page for information and photos from the concerts and the music camp. We also have a website with information of what is to come plus applications to the Music Camp, Visit www.bobcaygeonmusic.com. Until next time….see you at the Locks.

GET WALKING

When my wife and I were looking for a new house in Lindsay, one of our hopes was that wherever we bought would still be within walking distance to our church, library and the rest of the downtown core as our old home had been. We were very fortunate to be able to find a home that matched our laundry list of requirements along

with possessing a central walking friendly location. Both my wife and I grew up in large urban areas where walking was possible, but not common place. One of the things we have both loved about Lindsay is how walkable the town is. Not only is walking good for the environment, and a way to save money by not filling up the family car, it is also a way to get and stay fit. ParticipAction says the following about walking for health: • Aim for 30 minutes of walking a day. • Walking with others turns walking into an enjoyable social occasion. • F or those over the age of 40, overweight or haven’t exercised in a long time, check with your doctor first and see whether you should gradually start and slowly increase the amount you walk. According to ParticipAction, the health benefits of walking are almost too good to be true and they are: • Increased cardiovascular health, stronger bones, reduced body fat and a boost in muscle power and endurance. • A reduction in heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis and some cancers. The best part about walking is that it is free, doesn’t require special equipment or any training. It is the ultimate low-impact sport, and you can set and determine your own pace. To cope with inclement weather many Canadians have become mall-walkers during the winter months, including right here in CKL. Some have taken walking one step further to also work on their upper body muscle mass and core by adding cross-country ski poles to their daily activities. This is called Nordic Walking, or pole walking. This different take on walking began as off-season training for cross country skiing in Finland and the use of poles helps with balance and definitely exercises the arms and shoulders. ParticipAction concludes its call to arms about the benefit of walking by stating that regular walking will, “Benefit you with a more focused mind, a stronger and fitter body and a more enjoyable life.” What are you waiting for? The CKL has miles of paved and well lit sidewalks and well-groomed trails awaiting your next good walk. Take your furry friend if you have one — they will enjoy it too.

NEW WELLNESS CENTRE IN COBOCONK – UPDATE

By Jennifer Wilson

We are very excited to announce that plans are moving forward to bring a new Wellness Centre to Coboconk! In early July, we hosted two Community Meetings at the Coboconk Train Station to give folks an update on the project and to hear their ideas, suggestions, and comments. We were so pleased to see a packed house for both meetings – close to 100 people shared their thoughts and helped to move this dream closer to fruition!

Local Businesses & Community Working Together. We Invite You To Be A Part Of It!

Join Today!

As you have probably already heard, the Chamber has been working hard on this initiative to build a Wellness Hub in Coboconk that will help to address the issues that have arisen from the closure of the Coboconk Medical Centre. The concept is to renovate and expand the Coboconk Train Station building, preserving that significant piece of Coboconk history, and building space for 2-3 doctors, walk-in clinic hours, a dentist, and other complementary practitioners such as seniors foot care, massage, physio and chiropractic care. Expanded space through new construction, new parking, and better road access are all part of the new plans. Want to get involved in a project that will help to serve the needs of the northern parts of Kawartha Lakes and bring more jobs and economic activity to our area? Email jwilson@coboconknorland.ca or call 705-454-1110. We would love to hear from you! COMING EVENTS July 28 – 2 to 4pm - Coboconk Train Station Open House The Train Station Restoration Committee is showcasing a carved model train donated by the Lindsay Seniors Carving Club. The Restoration Committee along with the Shedden Area Historical Society had a display cabinet built to display this work of art and they can’t wait to show it off to you! July 28 – 7pm - Boots of Hazard Concert The Kirkfield and District Historical Society is hosting this event at the Museum, 992 Portage Rd, Kirkfield. Find out more at www.kirkfieldhistoricalsociety.com.

You will be guided through the painting. The event is at 6pm at the Coboconk Lions Hall. Tickets are $45 and available at the Coboconk Chamber of Commerce (across from Shields Home Hardware in Coby). All proceeds will be going towards community beautification. Hope to see you there!

Definition and History

Aromatherapy is the art and science of using pure essential plant oils in treatment. It is a holistic therapy, taking into account the body, mind and spirit. It is a multifaceted treatment and philosophy used in medicine, skin care, spirituality and in combination with other holistic practices, most notably massage and reflexology. Its history is rich and ancient. Egyptians used aromatics almost 3,000 years before Christ, as medicine, cosmetics, deodorants, as well as embalming. They believed that the plants and their aromas had been given to humanity by the Gods.

Olfaction, the Sense of Smell

Aromas or scents are molecules floating in the air. Olfaction occurs in response to aroma molecules. The olfactory cortex is involved in the conscious perception of smell as well as the emotional response to aromas. Even with its ancient origins, aromatherapy is still at its embryo state of development. Although the mechanism of olfactory discrimination are not well known, recent studies point to the possibility that as many as 50 primary aromas are recorded within us as memory.

What are Essential Oils?

Essential oils are highly concentrated plant extracts which contain the vital life-force of the plant. They are considered to be vegetable hormones. Essential oils contain the oxygen element with natural ozone and ions found in nature. Thus, the use of essential oils aids in oxygenating, hydrating and detoxifying. Essential oils are balancing in their effects, helping the body to return form an imbalanced state, which leads to illness, to the ideal balance representing health and well-being. Essential oils exert a subtle influence on the mind, offering a truly holistic, gentle and natural therapy.

IN MEMORY in memory of claire davis

DADDY’S HANDS I remember Daddy’s hands working til they bled. Sacrificed unselfishly just to keep us fed. If I could do things over, I’d live my life again and never take for granted the love in Daddy’s hands. Daddy’s hands were soft and kind when I was crying; Daddy’s hands were hard as steel when I done wrong; Daddy’s hands weren’t always gentle but I’ve come to understand there was always love in Daddy’s hands.
