From my perch

Everywhere I go these days, I hear folks moaning about the cold and snow. So many people, it seems, just don’t appreciate the delights of this most Canadian of seasons.

So gather round, friends. Dr. John will now share his secrets for learning to love winter.

1. Forget fashion (heaven knows I have). Rule number one is comfort. City folks chase fashion, and misery.

2. Snow is soft—so should your winter clothes be. Stretchy, fleecy pants and long underwear; cotton t-shirts and flannel shirts.

2. Mitts, not gloves; toques, not caps; moccasins, not cowboy boots.

These are all like sleeping bags for your hands, your head, your feet.

They should be cozy, so you feel you’re still in your warm bed when you’re out in the snow.

4. Don’t run out to the car in shirtsleeves and slippers. You’ll associate winter with being cold. Take time to slip into felt-lined boots and down coat, and pull on mitts and toque. Keep all thoughts of winter fire-place cozy.

5. The other day I came downstairs in a t-shirt. Hours later I realized I was avoiding going out because I was unconsciously feeling cold. I put the cozy clothes on and it changed my whole outlook.

6. Find a fun outdoor activity to keep you warm. I love to ski. You might like skating, sledding, snowshoeing, or just walking. And hey, bonus— no bugs.

7. Never stand around. This is a challenge for hockey parents, but keep moving, or shiver and be miserable. Winter is no time for spectator sports.

That’s all folks. Enjoy. editor@thepromoter.ca

Where is the editor’s compassion?

It is at least intellectually offensive to say, “let there be no mistake,” and then blithely offer mistaken ideas (Where is the compassion? Jan. 16, page 3). It is an offence to the heart to speak of compassion and offer not even cold comfort to people just days after the barbaric massacre in Paris.

One may support without needing to “heap praise on the cartoonists.” It is disingenuous to reduce them to one of “both sides” of an either/or position where the “or” is bullets.

Let there be no mistake on this: free speech that

offends no one needs no protection—there is no right not to be offended. Not offending others is the basis of good manners. But when fear of offending trumps critical thinking, free speech suffers.

If I may not mock and ridicule beliefs that deserve questioning, must I be muzzled?

May I insult only “the comfortable?”

May I not criticize those who see themselves as “afflicted?”

Sometimes prudence must take precedence over principle, but bullies must eventually be confronted, or violence rules, and then who will protect the victims of injustice?

Your claim (disclaimer?) of belief in freedom of speech is followed immediately by “but”—and your own idea of limiting it. Your condemnation of censorship, threats and murder is followed immediately by another “but”—and the implication that the cartoonists brought this on themselves.

Where is the compassion indeed?

Hypothetically speaking, if I claimed your article was offensive to my religious beliefs, would you retract it? Or, in my position of “white privilege,” would I not qualify for your compassion?

I attended the Trent Lakes Council meeting on Jan. 20. Mayor Bev Matthews presides over a positive professional meeting, with her past experience on council shining through. The whole council was engaged and through their actions the residents can expect positive representation of our opinions and presentations.

There are immediate rewards for all the work the constituents did to change council. A highlight was the immediate passing of their involvement in the concept of a Nogies Creek Waterway Park.

Rob Messervey from Kawartha Conservation and Principal Linda Skilton from Fleming College spoke about the uniqueness of this wonderful area in the Kawarthas. At the Ontario Municipal Board

hearing last summer for the Dewdney Quarry issue, all the good reasons that made this area special became quite apparent and the awareness grew. Hopefully there is still more good to come from the OMB.

From the Blandings Turtle to the Hognose Snake to the rare fauna and the wonderful waterways for canoeing, this area needs to be celebrated and we finally have a council in synch with the constituents.

The previous absence of the Pigeon Lake Management Study and the Blue Canoe program was put to rest as this council agreed to fund the modest expense to bring both of these to Pigeon, Big Bald and Little Bald via Kawartha Conservation.

I thank Kawartha Conservation and Fleming College for their foresight. I applaud Trent Lakes council members, who spoke of change during their campaigns. They were telling the truth; how refreshing is that.

The North Pigeon Lake Ratepayers Association applauds what we are seeing as true representation at council.

I even saw a bald eagle fly by my window the other day.

This rumour is garbage

There seems to have been an unfounded rumour swirling around Bobcaygeon that our newly elected councillor had the refuse container removed from in front of the post office.

This is just not true, and whoever has been promoting this unnecessary rumour, should stand in “the bad corner of shame” for a while.

The city removed the silver container because it was constantly overflowing and a person was hurt trying to clean up the debris.

Now, the city has green-wheeled containers stationed near the cedar trees at the post office front entrance.

Hopefully, citizens can now join hands once again striving for the betterment of our city in harmony.

The cost of political office

Recently both MP Barry Devolin and MPP Laurie Scott wrote to local newspapers criticizing the provincial Liberal Government for its spending and budget, giving the illusion to engaged citizens that a Conservative Government is the only fiscally responsible option.

Barry Devolin’s annual budget for his constituency offices is $327,620 (Parliament of Canada website). Laurie Scott spent $274,423 on office expenses in 2013-14 (Legislative Assembly of Ontario website). Does this sound “fiscally responsible” to your readers?

Does it really cost that much to run an office? Or is it money spent on calendars or communications that could easily be sent in an already distributed local paper?

Elizabeth May, leader of The Green Party and MP, posted her office and travel expenses at $23,684 for the year—and she lives on the other side of the country.

Don’t be fooled, there are fiscally responsible alternatives that care for more than just the elite.

Bobcaygeon would seem to be the winner by a nose in the City of Kawartha Lakes’ 2015 property tax sweepstakes.

CKL council has approved tax rates for the 2015 budget that would see Bobcaygeon’s rate increase by 1.1 percent. Fenelon Falls’ rate will grow by 1.43 percent, Oakwood’s by 1.47 percent, and Lindsay’s by 1.58 percent.

Your final tax bill, of course, will also depend on the assessed value of your property which may 14 20 ch 20 arch 25,, 2015 Mar y, da rs M , hu have changed from last year as the city is phasing in T ay sd ne d e W .. p.m :000 p.

expressed concern that rural transportation would end after the pilot project, and there is little time to implement a new service after the April deadline.

The three councillors said many people have come to rely on this service for work, education, medical appointments and social outings. It allows people from rural areas to use services in Lindsay.

Council supported Strangway’s follow-up motion to explore all viable options to continue rural transit after the pilot project ends.

Ward 12 Councillor Gord James, a long-time proponent of rural transportation, actually moved the motion to end the pilot project, but also proposed the taskforce. He said that “any transportation system takes five years to get rolling but this rural transit system needs improving.”

Mayor Andy Letham said he wants the service to be viable.

Darren Parberry of Métis Transportation offered council alternatives to improve rural transportation, which he said could be done at no cost to the taxpayer. He said rural service could include all of the city, and could be funded by fares and advertising by local businesses. The task force will consider his suggestions.

the motion saying that the holding tank actually “is part of a long-term plan” that will allow for development and will prevent overflow into Sturgeon Lake.

Staff agreed with Elmslie that the holding-tank solution is the first step of the long-term plan for waste-water management in Fenelon Falls.

City council has approved a proposal on the Fenelon Falls Waste Water Plant that would include a holding tank to store overflow effluent so it can be processed in non-peak-flow times.

Ward 7 Councillor Brian Junkin wanted to defer a decision because, he said, the holding tank is “a short-term solution.” He wanted staff to bring council a long-term plan for wastewater for Fenelon Falls.

Could CKL become a Blue Dot Community?

By Glenna Burns

City of Kawartha Lakes Mayor Andy Letham followed through, Jan. 20, on a promise he made to a Grade 3 class during the election campaign to bring the Blue Dot proposal on environmental rights to city council.

Leah Mathers, a Grade 3 teacher at Fenelon Falls’ Langton Public school had taught her students about the Blue Dot campaign last fall, and invited then-mayoral candidate Letham to her class so her students could tell him about the movement.

He promised the children that if elected, he would have council consider supporting the campaign. On Tuesday, he made good on his promise by bringing area residents Brian Smith and William MacCallum to council to make a presentation on the Blue Dot Movement that was pioneered by Dr.

David Suzuki and his foundation.

They explained to council that this is a growing national grassroots movement based on the idea that people have a basic human right to a healthy environment, including enjoying fresh water, clean air and safe food, that should be included in Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

Mathers’ students attended the council meeting to witness the presentation.

Through concerned citizens like Smith and MacCallum, the Suzuki Foundation is encouraging municipalities across the country to declare that their citizens do have a right to a healthy environment. The goal is that eventually all provinces and the federal government will make the same declaration.

Two days later, Smith and MacCallum, supported by Mathers and Susan and Michael Forrester, gave a longer presentation to the city’s Environmental Advisory Committee. The EAC voted to support the declaration in principle, pending further study and potential changes to the wording of the declaration.

Mayor Letham has given city staff until the end of March to study the issue.

If CKL does pass the motion it will join cities like Vancouver, Yellowknife, Montreal and The Pas that have already recently declared that their citizens do have a right to a healthy environment.

The proposed Nogies Creek Waterway Park may be a “dream come true” for local residents who have been fighting the proposed Dewdney Mountain mega quarry adjacent to Nogies Creek for years.

The Jan. 20 meeting of Trent Lakes Council buzzed with anticipation as Rob Messervey from Kawartha Region Conservation Authority presented the concept for the proposed park.

And after hearing the conservation authority’s proposal, council voted four to one in favour of the park concept.

This unique waterway, wetlands-system park will run from Bass Lake down Nogies Creek and into North Pigeon Lake. It will take in the shoreline areas of Nogies Creek and an adjacent property owned by Fleming College.

Linda Skilton, Dean of Frost Campus, Fleming College in Lindsay, explained how the college will be a major part of this new park where scientists can research water and wetlands habitat and students can develop their skills.

The Ministry of Natural Resources is also on board with plans to revitalize the Fish Sanctuary and Research Station infrastructure that is already on Nogies Creek.

Canoeists, kayakers and nature lovers of all stripes will have access to this “land between” region by water and on hiking trails.

Ontario Municipal Board hearings last summer around this quarry helped to focus attention on this very important area of the Kawartha Lakes.

The Fleming college park property sits right beside the proposed mega quarry property.

Rob Messervey, Chief Administrative Officer for Kawartha Conservation Authority, brought the Blue Canoe expansion proposal and request to Trent Lakes council on Tuesday, Jan. 20, and also offered an overview of the Pigeon Lake Management Plan (PLMP).

So far the PLMP has promoted intensive monitoring and sampling of Pigeon Lake waters and encouraged consultation with the many stakeholders in the watershed.

Mr. Messervey stressed the many reasons why a lake management plan makes sense. It provides a credible, science-based platform for studying issues like algae blooms, fish die offs, E-coli and other threats to the water and habitat. A healthy lake creates many economic spin-offs for tourism, fisheries and local communities.

The fisheries values for Pigeon Lake alone are estimated at between $20 million and $25 million annually, according to 2005 statistics from the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans.

More and more development is putting everincreasing pressure on water quality in our lakes, and increased public perception of poor water quality affects property values and discourages new investments.

The conflict over increased areas of wild rice is also an issue that will need to be resolved.

Lent, in the Christian tradition, starts on Wednesday, Feb. 18 this year. In many traditions it is preceded by Shrove Tuesday.

More southern and Catholic traditions call it Mardi Gras (French for Fat Tuesday), and have parades and street dances in places like New Orleans, Rio de Janeiro, Trinidad, and even Quebec City, before Lent’s more introspective period kicks in.

The British, being a little more restrained for various reasons, tend to settle for pancakes on Shrove Tuesday, and for the fourth year in a row, Bobcaygeon’s Village Baptist Church is offering a pancake breakfast to all comers at the Royal Canadian Legion in Bobcaygeon.

“It’s absolutely free, with no strings attached. We don’t even accept donations,” says event coordinator Peter Attard. Even the background music is a nice selection of country and western hits, he adds.

The breakfast is not just pancakes either, but will include sausages, fruit, juices and Tim Hortons coffee.

Members of the congregation will be serving from 8 am till noon.

Happy Valentines Hello young lovers, wherever you are

Lovers around the world mark Valentine’s Day each year on Feb. 14. But it really began as the Feast of Saint Valentine, a liturgical celebration of one or more early Christian saints named Valentinus.

Bring your sweetheart in for an awesome breakfast

Legend has it that Saint Valentine of Rome was imprisoned for performing weddings for soldiers and for ministering to Christians.

Roman Emperor Claudius II was impressed by Valentine and attempted to convert him to Roman paganism to save his life. Instead, Valentine tried to convert Claudius to Christianity. Because of this, he was executed.

In jail, Saint Valentine healed the jailer’s daughter, Julia and before his execution wrote her a farewell letter that he signed: “Your Valentine.”

Presto—the first Valentine’s Day card.

English medieval author Geoffrey Chaucer was the first person on record to associate the saint’s day with romantic love. In 1382, when the tradition of courtly love flourished, he wrote (modern English version):

Love Jack

“For this was on St. Valentine’s Day, when every bird cometh there to choose his mate.”

The earliest description of February 14 as an annual celebration of love appears in the Charter of the Court of Love, issued by Charles VI of France at Mantes-la-Jolie in 1400. It describes a feast, amorous song and poetry competitions, jousting and dancing. Amid these festivities, the attending ladies would hear and rule on disputes from lovers.

By the 18th-century, Valentine’s Day in England had evolved into an occasion when lovers presented one another with flowers, offered confectionery, and sent greeting cards (known as “valentines”).

In Europe, Saint Valentine’s Keys are given to lovers, a romantic symbol meant to unlock the recipient’s heart.

Valentine’s Day symbols today include the

heart-shaped outline—now best known as an emoticon used in texting on smart phones—doves and the figure of the winged Cupid.

And of course, since the 19th century, handwritten valentines have given way to massproduced greeting cards, plus chocolates and flowers galore.

Is there someone expecting a Valentine’s Day gift from you? Disappoint them at your peril.

You don’t need a paddle up these creeks

Why choose a river cruise? For a carefree getaway. To broaden your horizons. To see new sights. To be immersed in different cultures. To taste new flavours. To experience a different way to travel.

A river cruise offers a great vacation

value. Almost everything is included —deluxe accommodations, all onboard meals, regional wine and beer, daily shore excursions with knowledgeable, English-speaking guides, enrichment activities, complimentary touring bicycles, and entertainment that showcases local foods, performances and demonstrations.

Travel through the heart of Europe, Russia, Asia or Egypt, treated to an up-close, inspiring look at spectacular scenery and local cultures. Ships dock in the heart of historic cities and quaint villages, allowing you to conveniently disembark and enjoy local food and wine, sightseeing and shopping, especially in Europe’s popular Christmas Markets.

Your ship is comfortable and intimate, averaging just 150 guests, yet offers popular big-ship features: hair salon, fitness centre, library, Internet café and WiFi. These vessels offer fine dining with attentive service, including multi-course dinners prepared

by European chefs. Cabins are comfortable with European-style duvets and Egyptian cotton linens.

Their long, narrow, low design allows the ships to slip under the many bridges and squeeze into the numerous locks on the rivers they navigate. The interior of these ships will pleasantly surprise even the most discerning traveler with their elegance, panoramic views throughout and state-of-the art technology.

Attend the Avalon Information Session. Born and raised in the Netherlands, guest speaker, Mark Wismeijer, picked up a love of exploring the world with his backpack. Soon he became a Tour Guide working throughout the world. Mark joined Globus more than 10 years ago, conducting coach tours and river cruises throughout Europe.

We’ve Got The Goods!

The first in a series on Shopping Locally Let’s target local stores for shopping

It was “difficult news to hear,” said City of Kawartha Lakes Mayor Andy Letham about last month’s announcement that Target will be closing all its Canadian stores—Thank includes the one in Lindsay that replaced the town’s long-standing Zellers department store (it seems like only yesterday).

Even more difficult to hear, perhaps, was the news that the CEO, Gregg Steinhafel received the Canadian equivalent of over $76 million in severance from Target when he left the company last spring—partly because of his role in the disastrous decision to expand into Canada.

That’s actually more than the $70 million that Target is planning to pay as severance to all the rest of its 17,600 employees in Canada.

Not to mention that Target Canada now owes about $5 billion to creditors, making this one of the largest bankruptcies in Canadian retail industry history.

But this might be the best argument for supporting our local, home-grown retailers, instead of large multinationals like Target.

“We have many wonderful retailers who live and operate fascinating stores in our local communities like Lindsay, Bobcaygeon, Fenelon Falls, Coboconk and Norland,” says The Promoter’s Advertising Sales Manager Pat Thurston, who has visited nearly every business in the region in her years with the paper.

And she loves them all.

And taken all together, our locally owned stores offer as wide a range of goods as Target did—from electronics and furniture to hardware and sporting goods, to women’s and men’s fashions, to jewelry, pharmaceuticals and foods.

“Local is the way to go,” says Pat. “Support your neighbours, and they will support you by going the extra mile to give personal service, and by standing behind their products.”

Numbers tell all for Caygeon Chamber of Commerce events

By Bob Hughes, Secretary

This is shaping up to be the Year of the Numbers for the Bobcaygeon and Area Chamber of Commerce, as in—“Look at all the anniversaries we’re marking.”

The Chamber itself seems to be set to celebrate 35 years of activity (is there anyone out there who knows for sure?). Then we have the April Awards of Excellence (10 years), the May Canada-U.S. Walleye Tournament (35 years), the June warm-weatheropening Unlock the Summer (10 years), the August co-operative Midnight Madness event (25 years), and the September Cruisefest antique and classic vehicle show (20 years).

As well, the Kawartha Promoter, our host publication, will mark its 25th year of bringing local news and views to the area’s people.

Thanks to the enthusiasm of our directors and the other community-minded individuals who volunteer for their committees, this year’s events also promise to be top-notch.

For example, the 18 fishing enthusiasts who make up the walleye tournament committee started planning less than a month after the Chamber’s annual general meeting and continue to fine-tune the myriad details that make this stellar event a success.

One week recently featured the 16-person board of directors’ January monthly meeting plus three committee meetings—the first for Bobcaygeon Cruisefest, the first for Midnight Madness, and the fourth for the Walleye Tournament.

The first planning meeting for Awards of Excellence is already on the agenda and even the two-person Cornflower Social Committee—the Chamber’s Ruth-Anne Wilson and the Sheila Boyd Memorial Museum’s Barb McFadzen—have their plans for the July 15 Cornflower Social well in hand.

As always, these gatherings happen because volunteers from the community step forward to help out. That’s a broad hint that any interested parties should put these dates on their action calendars: • Awards of Excellence (April 25), • Canada-U.S. Walleye (May 22-23-24), • Midnight Madness (August 1) and • Cruisefest (September 13).

• Unlock the Summer’s date and plans will be announced shortly.

Churches offer 4 sessions on Islam at Caygeon library

These days all it takes is turning on your computer, TV or radio to hear a lot about Islam, usually associated with death, terrorist violence, war or harsh punishment.

But the followers of Islam are peaceful and law abiding. Their faith is distorted and widely misunderstood in our part of the world.

To understand our Muslim brothers and sisters better, Trinity United and Christ Church Anglican congregations are hosting a four-part series at the Bobcaygeon library on Thursdays from 2 to 3:30 pm, and starting on Feb. 19.

We will use a study document prepared by the United Church as background (preview at united-church.ca), which looks at the history and THINK SPRING Think of My Favourite Things first for your giftware, home décor & garden needs… visit us at 10 King St. E. Bobcaygeon, 738-9090

beliefs of Islam, one of three great world religions, which all acknowledge Abraham as a great leader.

The study will be led by Rev. Rodney-SmithMerkley and Rev. Bob Bettson. Bettson recently travelled to Jordan, the only peaceful Islamic country in the Middle East. He found a moderate religious climate, like Canada’s, where Christians and Muslims work together. Bettson also participated in a Muslim-Christian dialogue in Calgary from 2005 to 2007.

The sessions are open to the whole community.

There is no charge to attend.

Snowmobile Family Fun Ride for the Breakfast Club

The Kawartha Lakes Snowmobile Club is hosting a Snowmobile Family Fun Ride on Saturday, Feb. 14 to raise money for the Breakfast Club programs at local elementary public schools.

For a $15 registration fee you can sled along the area’s great trails to various checkpoints. There’s a lunch stop at the Kinmount Community Centre with the Ladies Auxiliary there offering a chili-andhot-dog lunch for $6.

The grand finale is set for the Burnt River Community Centre at 3 pm, where you can bid on silent-auction items and hob-nob over snacks with CKL Mayor Andy Letham and other councillors.

20 February 6, 2015 - The Kawartha Promoter

A Disney theme prevailed Jan. 10 as ladies from the Fenelon Falls curling club hosted their annual bonspiel—with teams in costume, songs, quizzes, talents, and even singing waiters.

Fenelon’s LeCraw team (the Minnie Mice) won, against competition from other local clubs, and teams from Toronto and Brampton. Congratulations to Heather LeCraw, Nancy Skopyk, June Sedore and Lynda Palmer— who all dressed as Minnie Mouse.

Thanks to all the sponsors, organizers, and volunteers who helped make the event a success and fun for all.

Health & Wellness Keep that baby smoke free

Quitting smoking isn’t any easier when you’re pregnant. But a new partnership between Peterborough County-City Health Unit and the Partners in Pregnancy Clinic is giving more options and support to area women who are pregnant or have young children.

The “Choose to Be…Smoke Free” quitsmoking program is tailored specifically for women, incorporating women’s knowledge of their community and lived experiences. It combines behavioural counselling and group support with access to free nicotine replacement therapy.

Other key program components include free transportation, help with childcare, positive smoke free resources, women-centred quit kits, opportunities for social networking, and incentives such as weekly gift cards for a grocery store or pharmacy.

“We find that women who are pregnant or just finished pregnancy are very motivated for healthy lifestyle changes,” said Dr. Joan Himann, Lead Physician with Partners in Pregnancy. “Pregnant women who are trying to quit smoking report feeling guilty, ashamed and alone,” adds Public Health Nurse Mary Pat Fasken.

Community Care expands its Fenelon Adult Day program

Beginning Feb. 9, Community Care City of Kawartha Lakes’ Adult Day program in Fenelon Falls will be offered on Mondays as well as the current Tuesdays and Fridays, all at the Fenelon Falls United Church.

The Adult Day program offers a safe, supportive environment where frail seniors, and people with memory impairment or physical disabilities can find a range of social, physical and recreational activities to meet their needs. That includes hobbies and crafts, exercise, games and activities, discussion groups, musical entertainment, sensory stimulation, special events and outings, and hot lunches and nutritional snacks.

The service also means that caregivers can get a break from their caregiving role, explains Joan Skelton, Director of Community Support Services.

The program runs from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm, and transportation support is also available through Community Care.

The organization also offers the Adult Day Bill Shosenberg (left), a client of Community Care’s Adult program three times a week in Bobcaygeon, twice a Day program, discusses plans to attend the additional week in Omemee and Lindsay (for individuals with weekly session in Fenelon Falls with Community Care dementia), and weekly in Little Britain.

Pity the poor nicotine addict as smoking ban widens

It is now illegal to smoke on or around children’s playgrounds, as well as publicly-owned sports surfaces such as ice rinks and swimming pools.

Smoking is also banned on all bar and restaurant patios at all times (whether covered or not), and the sale of tobacco products is banned on all university and college campuses in Ontario.

If some people can breathe a little easier in 2015, it is thanks to changes to the Smoke-Free Ontario Act that took effect Jan. 1.

The Smoke-Free Ontario Act first took effect on May 31, 2006, and rates of smoking have been declining ever since, notes Lorne Jordan, a Tobacco Control Officer with the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit.

Nearly one-quarter of all Ontarians smoked in 2000, but the rate had dropped to 18.1 per cent by 2013 says to the Ontario Ministry of Health.

People caught smoking or holding a lit tobacco product in a banned area can face a fine of at least $305, and up to $1,000. Restaurant owners, operators and managers can also be fined if people smoke on the patios of these establishments.

Tobacco-related illness costs Ontario’s healthcare system an estimated $2.2 billion in direct costs.

Rediscover the wonders of snow at Gamiing’s Winterlude

Gamiing Nature Centre is hosting its annual Winterlude on Monday, Feb. 16, which is Family Day.

All ages are welcome between 11 am and 4 pm for fun winter activities that will include

snowshoeing, cross country skiing, snow golf, trail bingo, guided trail walks, games and warm refreshments. There even may be ice fishing.

Bring your family and spend a fun filled day at Gamiing, 1884 Pigeon Lake Road (County Rd 17), 12 km south of Bobcaygeon and 19 km east of Lindsay.

The name comes from the Ojibway language, and means “by the shore.”

Please watch for signs marking the new entrance and parking lot with the three large solar panels.

This is north of the old entrance. Admission is by donation.

THE BENEFITS OF BETTER HEARING

A study conducted by the National Council on Aging showed that hearing loss left untreated has serious emotional and social consequences, which may help to dispel the notion that untreated hearing loss in older persons is a harmless condition. The researchers found that the happier and better-adjusted group had taken advantage of hearing instruments.

The hearing instrument users reported greater independence, improved mental health, and better relationships with their families than those who did not use a hearing instrument. Older non-users were more likely to agree with the statement “people get angry with me usually for no reason.” A hearing instrument can, indeed, liberate many older adults from the isolation and unhappiness of hearing loss.

If you believe you have a hearing loss, please call us. Our highly trained clinicians provide hearing healthcare in a manner that provides you with the information you need for a successful experience with your new hearing instruments. We are also well stocked in hearing aid accessories from batteries to hearing aids and represent many manufacturers.

Due to continuing research and advancements in audiology, new techniques and technologies are developing rapidly. We pride ourselves by keeping up to date with these advancements. .

P.S. The study mentioned above found that people who do not use hearing instruments are considerably less likely to participate in social activities.

$122,500 GRANT TO HELP BEAUTIFY NORLAND AND AREA

A new pergola in Riverside Park in Norland, new picnic tables for parks, and lots of new beautification projects, are all on tap for the Coboconk, Norland and Area Chamber of Commerce, thanks to a $122,500 grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation.

The new-last-year chamber of commerce announced the grant at its very first annual general meeting Jan. 19. The Coboconk, Norland and Area Chamber is the first new Chamber of Commerce in Ontario in 20 years—and already has over 100 enthusiastic members.

“We are grateful to the Ontario Trillium Foundation for their support of this community and our new Chamber of Commerce,” said chamber chair Ian Forster. “It is a real vote of confidence in the work we have undertaken. We will continue to work to strengthen our local economy and take on projects to positively impact our communities.”

The Coboconk, Norland and Area Chamber of Commerce (www.coboconknorland.ca) is a voluntary association of business and professional people committed to improve the social, civic, and business environment in Coboconk, Norland and area.

LOONIE AUCTION— ‘CAUSE IT’S ALL DOWN HILL FROM COBY

Coboconk’s annual Loonie Auction to raise money for the Fresh Water Summit Festival is set for Saturday, Feb. 7, beginning at 6:30 pm at the Coboconk Legion.

The Summit festival is held every June, and features live music, a boat parade, canoe race,

antique boat show, water-ski demonstrations, a pancake breakfast, and more—to celebrate the fact that Balsam Lake is the highest point in the world from which you can head off in two directions to sail around the world (in a seaworthy boat of course) without having to travel over land.

While there are two higher global navigable rivers (the Coon Rapids Dam on the Upper Mississippi River, and the Danube River at Kelheim, Bavaria, Germany), Balsam Lake is the only spot that gives the skipper the choice to go east to the Atlantic Ocean, west to the Pacific Ocean, south to the Caribbean Sea or north to the Arctic Ocean.

Organizers report that lots of interesting items have already been donated for the Loonie Auction, and more are expected—and invited. Tickets are $5 per person, and a light lunch is included, with a cash bar.

For more information or to donate items to the auction, contact Jennifer Wilson at: 705-454-1110.

RIDE BEHIND THE HORSES AT BALSAM LAKE PARK

Get your slide on Sunday, Feb. 15, when the Coboconk and District Lions offer a free afternoon of horse-drawn sleigh rides at Balsam Lake Provincial Park.

The sleigh rides run from 1 to 3 pm, and there will be free hot dogs and hot chocolate for one and all.

Donations to the food bank are not required, but will certainly be appreciated.

Horoscopes

Cancer (June 23 to July 23) It’s time to develop more confidence in your abilities, Cancer. You have great person-to-person skills, but you rarely focus on these when examining your strengths. Be assured— these are strong points in your character.

Feb. 6—Feb. 19, 2015 Melodie McCullough

Aquarius (Jan. 21 to Feb. 19) Did you know, Aquarius, that Groundhog Day (Feb. 2) marks the mid-point of winter? In earlier days, it was time to take stock, to make sure you still had half your hay, root crops and firewood left to comfortably make it through to spring. Perhaps it’s time you take stock, but of your feelings, rather than materials. Are you making it through winter okay? If not, find something to “shore you up” ’til spring.

Pisces (Feb. 20 to March 20) Hey, Pisces, what about a winter getaway? Maybe it’s time to take a trip? It can be far away with plenty of sun, or just around the corner with a lovely walk in the snow. It’s up to you—but do it.

Aries (March 21 to April 20) Looking for love, dear Aries? Many of us are. Remember that love blossoms in the strangest of gardens, so don’t be afraid to tiptoe through the tulips, and find what may be growing there.

Taurus (April 21 to May 21) “The mind is everything. What you think, you become”—Buddha. Do you believe in the power of your thoughts, Taurus? Buddha certainly did, and look what a reputation he has. So start thinking great things about yourself, and watch what happens.

Gemini (May 22 to June 22) It may be a good time in the coming weeks, to assess your career decisions. Are they moving ahead as planned, or have they stagnated? Only you know. Decide how to manage these questions, Gemini.

Leo (July 24 to Aug. 23) Leo the Lion, we hear you roaring. How can we miss it? You’re excited these days, and with good reason. Everything is falling nicely into place in your life right now, with lots more to look forward to.

Virgo (Aug. 24 to Sept. 23) Valentine’s Day is almost upon us. Bring on the romance. But please remember those who may not have as many loved ones in their lives as you do, and take a little time to make their day special, too.

Libra (Sept. 24 to Oct. 23) Money is always loaded with emotional baggage, it seems, dear Libra. You need to extricate yourself from ideas from the past about how to handle money and all the reactions that come with it. You’ll feel better.

Scorpio (Oct. 24 to Nov. 22) Here’s the bottom line, Scorpio: To feel good about yourself, don’t say “yes” when you want to say “no.” Learn to be assertive in situations, with firmness, directness and honesty. It is a behavior that can be learned.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23 to Dec. 21) We know these winter months can be tough to get through sometimes, dear Sag. But, as always, there are violets under the snow, and spring is only weeks away.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 20) Your generous nature is shining brightly right about now, Capricorn. Have no doubt—the people you are helping will be eternally grateful. They appreciate every move you make.

Dedicated to the memory of my husband and best friend Ed “Axeman” Macdonald A Man In A Tipi

Mary Ann Macdonald - Wednesday October 18, 2000

I met a man in a tipi, At that time my life was a shamble, On a future, I wouldn’t gamble.

I met a man in a tipi, A man so full of daring, To my family and me, so caring.

I met a man in a tipi, A silent mountain man With a rugged brown tan.

I met a man in a tipi, With him I can share my dreams, He doesn’t laugh at my schemes.

I met a man in a tipi, He showed me that life was dear.

Beside him, I had no fear.

I met a man in a tipi, I longed to become his wife And share his wonderful life.

I met a man in a tipi, He taught me about the woods, with him, I learned the “I coulds”

I met a man in a tipi, My longing did come true Now, I’m seldom blue.

I met a man in a tipi, He introduced me to fun, In fact, he bought me my first gun.

I met a man in a tipi, To him, I owe so much more, For he has made my heart soar.
