New heritage centre brings township history to life “It’s wonderful. We’re really grateful that council saw the need and helped to get us here. They’ve been more than helpful, anything we’ve asked for they’ve said yes,” society president Judy Chaplin said while arranging material and displays at the centre. The former council chamber has been transformed into a brightly lit gallery featuring a myriad of displays and a prominent home for the society’s sizeable collection of family genealogies. Adjacent rooms also have displays and storage; even the bathroom follows a heritage theme. The historic community of nearby Welbeck is also remembered with a dedicated display. They’ve been able to pull things out of people’s homes and bring them to Westwood. For the past ten years Chaplin herself has stored a large collection of newspapers and family histories. With a permanent site, it’s now easier for the society to solicit material that may still be stored in attics and basements or discovered at auctions. “If you don’t have a place to display stuff people are wondering what are you doing with it. Now that we do have a place they can come and see what they have donated. We have just about everything other than the texThe new Asphodel-Norwood Heritage Centre will officially open on June tiles on display.” Chaplin says the short journey to 6.

The new Asphodel-Norwood Heritage Centre has long been a dream of local history buffs and now in the historic hamlet of Westwood the story of the township’s rich, dynamic and enduring history can be told through a diverse collection of artefacts, documents, photographs, textiles, family trees and memorabilia. Housed in the former Township of Asphodel municipal building in West-

wood, the new centre, set to officially open June 6, provides a permanent home and showcase for the Asphodel-Norwood Historical Society’s vast collection and archive which had been spread between members’ homes and the public works building where some of the material had been shifted following a move from the cramped Pine Street Centre. Township council’s decision to allow the society to use a portion of the nearly empty space has been rightly lauded.

“I think that when people come to see it they will be quite surprised. There is stuff here that even our members haven’t seen and it’s for the people.” The name Asphodel-Norwood Heritage Centre is appropriate, Chaplin adds. “I think it reflects what this is about. I think we’ll get lots of

people visiting.” Having a permanent site will also make things easier for researchers. The society’s objective is always to preserve local heritage for future generations and celebrate the contributions forebears have made in settling, developing and establishing a

Theories about Champlain in Hastings will get airing at civic centre

By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - To a young boy growing up in Hastings Stewart Richardson was steeped in the stories of the great Samuel de Champlain and his frequent sailing expeditions across the Atlantic Ocean and into the heart of New France. The belief that the great explorer might have paddled through waters near the village in 1615 with a band of 500 Huron and Algonquin warriors on his way to confront their Iroquois nemesis across Lake Onondagas (Lake Ontario) was an electrifying thought to someone who frequently canoed along the Trent River near Hastings playing at being courier de bois with his

friends. Now living in Cobourg, Richardson remains mightily intrigued by speculations and theories regarding Champlain’s route southward to engage the Iroquois in what is now upper New York State. It is 400 years later and there are anniversary publications set to be released that celebrate the redoubtable French navigator, explorer, adventurer and “Father of New France” and his final trip through the Trent region. Over the course of 34 years, Champlain made 41 Atlantic crossings, an astonishing feat. Richardson, a member of the Hastings Historical Society and author of a

well-received biography of NHL hockey star Dit Clapper, has used the May edition of the Heritage Gazette of Trent Valley to lay out some of his thoughts on Champlain’s itinerary and those of a few other notable researchers who have pored over eighteenth and early nineteenth century maps, information on local topography, portage routes, water levels and Champlain’s own comments in his book Voyages and Expeditions. He will revisit this fascinating subject during the June 3 (7 p.m.) meeting of the Hastings Historical Society at the Hastings Civic Centre. “The big story is that this is the four-hundredth anniversary of Chaplain’s 1615 trek in our region and more

importantly for us through Hastings,” says Richardson. His article will be included in a book retired Trent University Professor Ellwood Jones is editing with Peter Adams and Alan Brunger on Champlain’s visit to the area. The book, Finding Champlain’s Dream: Reflections on Champlain, First Nations and French Culture in Central Ontario since 1615, includes 20 chapters and a significant

number of maps and illustrations; it will be published this August with an “official” launch September 5 at the Trent Valley Archives open house. “The bottom line is that most of us think Champlain came through Hastings but two books that came out in 1973 say otherwise,” Richardson said. Richardson says his talk on June 3 will present both theories and a “new idea.”

Hastings fieldhouse dome is inflated

Refreshed Hastings Revitalization Association makes comeback News - Hastings - The Hastings Revitalization Association (HRA) has refreshed itself and is set to make a comeback with an open meeting on June 4 at the Civic Centre. “The HRA is going through some restructuring and redeveloping to create a strong community association where individuals can be involved and volunteer time as they are able,” says chair Mike Metcalf. Metcalf, of Banjo’s Restaurant, a Trent Hills Chamber of Commerce business excellence award winner this year, and also the Hastings Environmental Group, says the HRA wants to “bring fresh faces into the association to help make Hastings the great place that it is.” “The HRA is going through some restructuring and redeveloping to create a strong community association where individuals can be involved and volunteer time

as they are able,” he says. The June 4 meeting will be “informal” with “brainstorming and round-table discussions on events, improvements, organizations and fundraising opportunities for the village.” Metcalf says the “redeveloped HRA will strive to unite organizations” in the village through a “common group where organizations can share their strengths and weaknesses to gain knowledge from one another.” Sub-committees will be formed to “give volunteer support an opportunity to flourish. “A strong line of communication will be maintained and improved through the use of databases, social and traditional media,” says Metcalf. Anyone interested in volunteering some time, any amount of time, should attend the meeting and get involved in the community, he added. For more information call 905-269-7819.

There is still interior work to be finished and yard work to be completed but Hastings area residents watching the progress of the 4,891.31-square-metre multi-purpose field house at Fowlds Millennium Park got a good sense of what the completed structure will look like when the dome was inflated last week. The dome arrived in sections, was then laid out and seamed together before it was inflated. The $4.8-million facility includes a 200-metre walking track, 98.4-foot by 196.9-foot soccer field, an extended court area featuring an interlocking sport floor that can be used for a variety of sports and non-sporting activities, and support building with change rooms, wash rooms, an office, lobby and viewing area. The golf range will have ten mats and an optional putting green. A new $500,000 regulation outdoor soccer pitch is also being developed as part of the project. Photo: Submitted

have witnessed the de-industrialisation of Canada. In pursuit of ever-increasing profit, Canada’s corporations have moved manufacturing operations and the resulting jobs to countries with vast amounts of cheap labour. And Canadians suffer the effects. Corporations are richer, Canadians are poorer. Corporate Canada runs this country, not the elected government. They are the ones with the money and therefore the power to dictate to government. Canada now has a service industry as a basis for our economy, not a manufacturing one. We are selling off our natural resources at bargain basement prices. That’s how we attract investors. Canada is for sale. What a waste … and what a shame. Ray Clark, Tweed

The growing tendency in our corpocracy (my word) is for various groups, including corporations to raise money for charitable groups, who then donate money raised to societies and individuals in need, our less fortunate fellow humans. It all seems well and good to help each other, especially at this time of joblessness. But where does the responsibility lie for our current lack of meaningful jobs? Our government is too busy protecting us from terrorists, and cutting taxes for their supporters in high places to really bring back the jobs.

Dear Editor, In a volunteer society such as ours, where government does not spend adequate tax monies on societal basic needs, charity has to fill the gap. For example, the question asked at the grocery store and other retail outlets, “Would you like to donate to such and such organisation?” This request happens when one is about to pay for goods at the checkout. It is audacious, impolite, impertinent and rude to make such a request, and in full public view. If and when one chooses to donate money, it is a personal and private matter. Many people are embarrassed at being put on the spot. The cheeky question is also an embarrassment to the cashier having to ask. The companies involved have created a completely un-

The LRP is a competitive process for procuring large renewable energy projects generally larger than 500 kilowatts. At the conclusion of the LRP, the IESO may award contracts for successful projects up to the specified procurement targets for each renewable fuel: 300 megawatts (MW) for wind, 140 MW for solar, 75 MW for waterpower, and 50 MW for bioenergy. This notice is being distributed to notify members of the public of a public community meeting that has been scheduled to discuss the Large Renewable Project proposal. Information regarding the proponent, the Large Renewable Project proposal, and the meeting details are described below.

OPINION

This and that

Syria: The last chance saloon Editorial - The fall of Ramadi to Islamic State troops on Wednesday was not a big deal. The city was deep inside ISheld territory, IS fighters had controlled 80 per cent of it since March, and we already knew that the Iraqi army can’t fight. Even so, Gwynne Dyer Islamic State is not going to take much more of Iraq. What it doesn’t already hold is either Shia or just not Arab at all (Kurdistan), and that is not fertile ground for Sunni Arab fanatics. The fall of Palmyra on Friday was a very big deal, because it was clear evidence that the Syrian army’s morale is starting to crumble. It was doing quite well until last summer and even regaining ground from the insurgents, but the tide has now turned. After every defeat and retreat, it gives up more easily at the next stop. It may be too late already, but at best the Syrian regime is now in the Last Chance Saloon. The Syrian army is very tired and short of manpower after four years of war, but what is really making the difference is that the insurgents are now united in two powerful groups rather than being split into dozens of bickering fragments. Unfortunately, both of those groups are Islamist fanatics. The Al Nusra Front had to fight very hard for Irbid, the northwestern provincial capital, in March, but Islamic State met little resistance when it took over the Damascus suburb of Yarmouk in April. And Palmyra and the adjacent gas fields, which the regime fought for months to defend last year, fell to Islamic State this month after just four days. It’s never possible to say when a hard-pressed army will actually collapse, but the Syrian army is now in zone. If the Assad regime does go under, Islamic State and the Nusra Front will take over all of Syria. What happens next would be very ugly. Islamic State and the Nusra Front are both “takfiri” groups who believe that Muslims who do not follow their own extreme version of Sunni Islam are “apostates,” not real Muslims, and that they deserve to be killed. Around one-third of Syria’s population is “apostates” by this definition– Alawites, other Shias, and Druze–and they are all at great risk. True, the Nusra Front has been less outspoken

about its intentions than Islamic State, but that’s just a question of timing and tactics. The basic ideology is the same, and the Nusra Front in power would be committed by its own religious beliefs to exactly the same murderous “cleansing” of the population. When religious fanatics tell you they intend to do something, it is wise to take them seriously. An Islamist victory in Syria could entail the death of millions. It would also cause panic in the neighbouring Arab countries, Lebanon, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Yet no nearby Arab country will put troops into Syria to stop the looming disaster, because they cannot imagine fighting fellow Sunnis in Syria, however extreme their doctrine, in order to save the Shia regime of Bashar al Assad. You don’t get the choices you would like to have. You only get the choices that are on the table, even if you are the president of the world’s only superpower. At this point Barack Obama has only two options: save the Syrian regime, or let it go under and live with the consequences. It’s not even clear that he can save it. He cannot and should not put American troops on the ground in Syria, but he could provide military and economic aid to the Syrian regime and, more importantly, put U.S. airpower at the service of the Syrian army. Even that might not save Assad’s regime, but it would certainly help the morale of the army and the two-thirds of the population that still lives under his rule. With more and better weapons and U.S. air support, the Syrian army might be able to catch its breath and regain its balance. It would be a gamble, and if Obama did that he would be alienating two major allies, Turkey and Saudi Arabia. But if he doesn’t do it, very bad things may follow. U.S. planes are already bombing Islamic State (and the Nusra Front too, in practice) all over northern Syria, but they did not bomb the IS troops attacking Palmyra. That was a deliberate decision, not an oversight, even though Palmyra would probably not have fallen if Obama had given the order. Obama didn’t do that because he is still stuck in the fantasy-land of an American-trained “third force” that will defeat both Islamic State and the Assad regime in a couple of years’ time. Saving the Syrian regime is a deeply unattractive choice, because it is a brutally repressive dictatorship. Its only redeeming virtues are that it is not genocidal, and does not threaten all of the neighbours. Obama may have as little as a couple of months to come to terms with reality and make a decision. Waiting until the Syrian regime is already falling to intervene is not a good option; decision time is now. His reluctance to decide is entirely understandable, but rescuing Assad is the least bad option.

Editorial - When is the news not news ... when it’s about Hydro One. It’s certainly not surprising that Ontario Ombudsman Andre Marin’s recent report slams Hydro One for their billing practices and disastrous customer service. What’s remarkable is the fact that close to 11,000 people have complained to Marin’s office about the province’s largest utility’s billing issues. This sets a record of sorts for the office of the Ombudsman in dealing with complaints, a record the province definitely shouldn’t be crowing about A public company that habitually ignores the public’s complaints loses all credibility with its customers and that too should come as no surprise to anyone. Screw-ups by our provincial governments are also to blame whether it’s giving away the farm in contract negotiations or guaranteeing outrageous sums for green energy suppliers and passing that on to consumers. We’ve been paying for someone else’s mistakes for years now with the debt retirement charge, which is for some unknown reason based on your level of consumption. We’re all equally responsible for the mess that Hydro’s is in, the government says but some folks, it seems, are more responsible than others. Those of us who reside in rural areas take the brunt of the BS from our electrical utility in the form of higher charges for our rural lowdensity geographical designations. Most of us would be heating our homes with natural gas if we had our druthers but the only people who have access to gas either live in town or are lucky enough to be along a line that runs to town. Our options are limited but this Hydro One customer will soon be lowering his Hydro bill the old-fashioned way by sending our electric furnace and water heater to the curb and embracing propane. With what we’ve spent in the past five years to heat the place, we could have chucked our electric furnace and paid for a new one by now. Now if we could just find a way to stop subsidizing Ontario electrical workers’ pension plans at a five or four to one ratio, we’d be all set. The government is solely to blame for this one. Considering neither my wife or I will see a pension ourselves, it just doesn’t seem right that we should be paying for someone else’s at such an exorbitant rate through our taxes ... especially considering

the average Hydro One worker makes basically what my wife and I make together. On another note, is this not some of the best playoff hockey you’ve seen in awhile? One-goal games one night and crazy wideopen, high scoring games the next. Considering some of the best goalies in the world are involved, it’s just nuts that someone like Henrik Lundqvist, king of the 2-1 win, could allow five or more goals on consecutive nights. At our place, I’m firmly in Tampa Bay’s corner, mainly because I love cheering for the underdog, in this case the diminutive Tyler Johnson, who wasn’t drafted because of his small stature, only to end up the leading goal scorer in the playoffs. My wife Mare, however, is cheering for the Rangers, not because she likes the Rangers, but because Henrik Lundqvist is dreamy. Funny, but she almost seems to have a sixth sense when it comes to Hank. When there’s a close up or interview with him, she magically appears and when they cut back to the game, she disappears ... well, unless she really wants to go to sleep. Then she stares at the game until the yawns start and then she heads to bed. The best part of any hockey game for Mare is the music before each faceoff. She happily sings along in the background before fading away with each puck drop. There is one other highlight of an NHL evening for both of us and that’s the commercials. While the women’s FIFA commercials are well done, you just can’t beat the latest GoDaddy spot. Some of you are smiling right now and you’re the ones watching playoff hockey, I’m sure. I’m talking about the “Stick it” commercial with the mild-mannered woman telling everyone who didn’t believe in her to “Stick it” when her venture became successful. Man, who wouldn’t want to be able to say that to a few people they’ve crossed paths with over the years. The more I watch it, the more I laugh especially when she wakes up Nana and blows out the candle by the urn. If you haven’t seen it, Google it. I’m thinking “Stick it” would be a perfect title for my farewell column when I eventually retire though that does sound a little harsh. Until then, I’ll just have to be satisfied with yelling it up the driveway as I wave to my electric furnace heading to the scrap heap.

Historical Society “thrilled” Act of heroism by county honour honoured by county By Bill Freeman

TICO#50007364

News - Peterborough County - In saving the life of a fellow card player, Marg Perry was doing what a long career in nursing had trained her to do. “When you’ve nursed for fifty-some years it automatically clicks in I guess,” a humbled Perry said during the 22nd annual Peterborough County Recognition Awards in Buckhorn where she received an Act of Heroism Award. “I’m just glad I had the skills,” she said. Last November Perry was attending an Asphodel-Norwood Seniors Friendship Club euchre party in the Millennium Room at the community centre when one of the card players disappeared into the washroom. As the next round was about to begin the card player had not returned and Perry went to check, calling her name but not hearing any response. An emergency nurse in Peterborough and Campbellford for many years, Perry went into “life-saving mode” calling for a cane to open the door where she found her fellow card player without vital signs. She called someone to go and fetch the AED from the arena lobby; fortunately as well there were paramedics in the facility because of a hockey tourney. In the meantime Perry administered CPR compressions and was able to find a light pulse as the paramedics arrived and took over. The victim was well on her way to the hospital before she remembered anything. She was hospitalized for one week and is recovering well. “Luckily my skills came through,” Perry said. “I am really honoured that somebody submitted my name. I don’t like these types of things [awards ceremonies], that’s why I was a bit hesitant. I shy away from cameras.”

She added that in accepting the award she was, in one sense, accepting the award on behalf of the nursing profession and the acts of heroism they and other emergency services workers perform every day largely unnoticed. Sharon Scott nominated Perry for the award.

“Marg is always ready to help. She readily offers help at her church, anyone in need in the community. She is a very quiet and reserved person. In mentioning what she did she will says that’s what I did all my nursing life; she doesn’t want anyone to make a fuss over her.”

News - Peterborough County - The Asphodel-Norwood Historical Society has built up its reputation over the past 23 years, collecting, archiving, researching and encouraging residents to preserve local heritage. Their efforts have been mostly quiet, although intensely dedicated. On Friday night the organization was presented with a Peterborough County Recognition Award for heritage preservation during a gala event at the Buckhorn Community Centre. The society was both thrilled and a little chagrined by the award and the limelight that shone down on them that evening. “It’s terrific. We’ve done a lot of work,” said former president Terry Stephens, a founding member of the society 23 years ago. “There are things that we would never have got but for the organization. There would have been things that would have been gone forever if we hadn’t kept

them. “We’ve enjoyed it,” Stephens added. “It’s so nice to have a place to bring things; it used to be in our houses, spread all over,” his wife Doris, long-time society secretary, noted, thankful that the organization now has a permanent home in the former Asphodel Township municipal building. “People can see us and know we are here. The reason we are there is so people can bring things and you want to preserve things. It’s always good that people can see us,” she said. “We’re getting more and more things all the time so people know we’re there. “Some people are relieved to get rid of their stuff.” With their permanent home, Stephens said people now have an increased sense of comfort that their heritage treasures will be well-preserved and displayed while helping to teach others about the history of the township.

nor has contributed $320,000 to the project which Pearcy noted is the largest single donation given to the campaign outside of those by the federal and provincial governments which each chipped in 20 per cent of the total cost. It was originally believed the funding model would follow the standard formula of one-third contributions by the province, federal government and municipality. With the federal government prepared to match Ontario’s contribution the province refused to budge on the 20 per cent despite lobbying by municipal officials and Action 2000. The unexpected change in funding formula posed a significant challenge to Action 2000 which did not want the integrity of the design compromised in a way that would produce an inferior facility. Pearcy said the donor made a commitment to him around the turn of the century saying that “if Continued on page 10

The food and drink was provided by businesses in Campbellford, Brighton and Colborne. “If it’s not donated it’s been given to us at a really good price,� Brown said. Board members, staff and community volunteers prepared the sandwiches and other food in advance of the Grade 5/6 students showing up to pack the bags. “It is such a positive thing for the kids

to be involved,� she said. “They were excited to come so that they can help people achieve their dreams,� Muldoon said. “This year was kind of special because we had staff from Community Living come to talk to our class about the programs that they run and the support that they offer for people with disabilities,� he said. That gave his students “a really good understanding about how this community resource helps people.�

News - Campbellford - Spirits were high among the volunteers and participants on what was a perfect day for Kite Day this year, according to organizers with Friends of Ferris. Warm and windy weather provided the perfect setting for the more than 220 people who were there to enjoy the day; there was even a birthday party celebration that took place in the ďŹ eld where all the action was happening. There were so many kite enthusiasts who stayed for lunch that they cleared out the cook tent, say organizers. “We had the best volunteers helping out,â€? said Anne Kidd, a director with Friends of Ferris. There were 18 ofďŹ cial volunteers, plus “a couple of great peopleâ€? helping in the ďŹ eld, she

added. Many of the volunteers stayed much longer than scheduled to ďŹ ll in where needed because there were so many people attending this year. “I can’t say enough about how awesome the volunteers all were,â€? said Kidd. A draw from the list of people who volunteered was held and the volunteer prize of two tickets to a Westben show for the 2015 season was won by Dawson Cartwright who is a long-time Kite Day volunteer.

Trio part of Guinness world record head shaving

Guinness Book of World Records adjudicator Amanda Mochan joins NDHS students Tyler Churcher, Susan Charchuk and Simon Dubeau and teacher Diane Graham following the world-record shattering mass head shaving at Peterborough Airport that helped raise money for pediatric cancer research. Photo: Submitted By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - It was a “natural” thing to do, says Susan Charchuk of her experience as part of a Guinness World Record beating head shaving extravaganza in the Loomex Hanger at Peterborough Airport. The high-spirited affair

spearheaded by the Pedal for Hope cycling team brought together 267 people of all ages and raised more money for pediatric cancer research. The old record of 212 was held by the American Cancer Society and Guinness Book adjudicator Amanda Mochan

was there to authenticate the event. Susan, a Grade 9 student at Norwood District High School, was joined by Simon Dubeau and Tyler Churcher and together they raised $681. “I’ve done it five or six times before so it just seemed natural to do it again,” said Susan. “One of the main reasons is so they can find a cure for many types of cancer in the future [so] if I have children that cure will be there.” It was a boisterous event but every head shaved was carefully and meticulously accounted for by Mochan so it could become an official record. “It was loud, there were a lot of people and a lot of bald people,” said Susan. “It was just natural.” Susan had no second thoughts when she was asked if she’d be interested in participating. “As soon as they called me and asked I said, ‘let’s go do that.’” “I’m not a big fan of crowds but it was pretty heart-warming to see that so many people had come out to help in any way possible,” Simon added. “It was

something I would most definitely do again.” Like Susan, Simon jumped at the opportunity to take part and represent the school at a major regional event. “When I lived in Kingston a friend’s mother had cancer and she was able to beat it and I couldn’t think of a reason not to shave my head.” Susan says she’s getting compliments from schoolmates about her “new do.” Simon, a member of the Knights track team says the “chrome dome is pretty good” but says he’ll have to be careful about the sun during daylong track and field meets. NDHS teacher Diane Graham joined the trio and their families at the mass head shaving. It was an exhilarating experience, Graham said. “I’m so proud of them, they exemplified the spirit of giving,” she said of the NDHS students. Each participant had to raise a minimum of $100. The NDHS student council sponsored the trio by covering

their $30 registration fee. “It was a real good feeling, everybody working towards the same goal,” said Graham. There could have been more NDHS students but Graham says the event was on a Saturday and there were

work conflicts. She praised Havelock Home Hardware for allowing one of the students to take time off work to participate. “That’s the community saying this is important. That makes one feel good.”

Speech month emphasizes importance of strong communication skills

By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - Reading aloud to your child is the single most important factor in helping them develop skills they will need to achieve a high level of reading success, speech and language experts say, and that’s one of the points that’s being emphasized throughout speech, language and hearing month. Exposure to books and communication in general is critically important, says Kate Wentzel a speech and language pathologist with the Five Counties Children’s Centre. “Read to your kids; talk to your kids,” Wentzel said during one of her regular drop-ins at the Hastings Ontario Early Years Centre. The more words a child hears as a baby and toddler the larger their vocabulary will be by school age, adds Leisa Baker a public health nurse with the Peterborough County-City Health Unit.

“Some parents may ignore these warning signs thinking the problem will fix itself,” said Baker. “Parents shouldn’t delay and should address any speech and language issues.” “If they have any concerns parents are encouraged to call us,” adds Wentzel. “Usually parents know; they have an idea that there’s something going on.” It could be a hearing problem and hearing tests are something they recommend “right off the bat,” she says. Wentzel and her colleagues work with children of all ages but it’s usually around age one that parents begin to see that their child is not understanding what they are saying or are very quiet. “There is so much information out there and parents are very aware of what their kids should be doing.” One thing they can do as well is reassure

parents who might be overanxious about an issue. “Late to get going talking is a very common issue; often [the child] understands what’s being said but they’re not expressing themselves. We see a lot of late-talkers. Sometimes there are bigger issues where kids don’t understand what’s being said to them. We try to make referrals to anyone who may be able to help with that [if there are] underlying issues.” At Five Counties they do an assessment and “create some goals with the family around what their needs are; we do blocks of speech therapy there; sometimes it’s

just monitoring them and providing tips to families on communication skills.” The number of children needing help now throughout the Five Counties catchment area is quite large, Wentzel says. “They go through waves. Sometimes you get a ton of referrals at once. There’s a definite need; there’s never a shortage.” A good way for parents to assess a child’s communication ability is by using the Ontario government’s speech and language milestones for children up to the age of five years. The milestones and other resources are available at <www. kidtalk.on.ca>.

“Every word counts when it comes to a child’s speech skills,” says Baker. “Parents and caregivers need to play, talk, listen and read with children to encourage speech and language development.” Approximately one in ten Ontario preschool children will experience a communication delay, says Baker, a “discovery that can be a surprise to parents and caregivers.” Some parents think their child is “just quieter than other children” or that their “frustration with words” will rectify itself over time. But these might be indicators of speech and language problems, she says. Other warning signs to watch for include difficulty following directions, having a hard time being understood, relying on gestures to communicate and not pronouncing words clearly.

Campbellford Lions Club asks mayor for ways to invest in the municipality

News - Campbellford - The Campbellford Lions Club is again looking to “give back” and so an invitation was issued to Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan to attend their recent dinner meeting with a list of suggestions. “I understand you want to spend some money,” Macmillan said with a grin. “That’s what I was told … you are looking to make an investment again into the municipality.” This isn’t the first time the club has decided to donate to the community but it is the first time they invited the mayor to one of their regular

meetings for input about what the municipality needs. “We just wondered if the mayor had any ideas for us,” said club president Don May. “We invest in the community but this is the first time we’ve had the mayor here … it was kind of on a whim and we’re very appreciative that he took the time to come to talk to us,” May added. Club members and guests filled the Odd Fellows Hall, 243 Victoria Street, where the meetings are held twice monthly. “I’ll tell you what I’ve thought of,” said the mayor as he provided a list of ideas, which began with helping

with the cost of a new command centre for the Trent Hills Fire department as “the current command centre the guys built themselves has reached the end of its lifespan.” The mayor also noted that Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake, who is the Northumberland County co-ordinator, hopes to get municipalities involved to help with the cost. “Something else that is hot off the press this morning, and the fire chief is really behind this smaller project, is a proposal to train all or some of the firefighters as ham radio operators,” said Macmillan. He explained that during a state of emergency this would be a way to provide backup communications. “The local ham radio operators would train the firefighters for free,” he noted. The ham radios, smaller than the current walkie talkies, cost about $70. The infrastructure that would be needed on the new fire tower for this would cost $10,000.

The mayor had many other ideas he put on the table such as redevelopment of recreational centres, including the one in Campbellford. Asked by the Independent if he receives many offers like this from local clubs and organizations who want to donate to the municipality for a project or a piece of equipment the mayor commented: “It’s rare, although without listing them all, it is rare. But, very much appreciated when it does occur. “It’s fabulous to see our residents and organizations take part and ownership of making their dreams come true, rather than just demanding the municipality do it for them,” he added. The Campbellford Lions Club has given back to the community in a number of ways. For example they donated $10,000 to the Campbellford Memorial Hospital to renovate the emergency room. To fundraise they hold events such as their barbecue at Chrome on the Canal (July 4). As well the club hosts Melodies

consuming,” he added. What will occur, Raby said, will be the building of a temporary structure north of the bridge and temporarily realigning the highway to the north to “accommodate two lanes of traffic at all times during the construction.” There will be one lane of traffic on the temporary bridge and one lane will always stay on the existing bridge, he said. “We’ll build half and half.” The temporary bridge will not be used during the winter with traffic being diverted back onto half of the new bridge for the winter, he said. There would still be two lanes. “By not diverting the traffic off the highway we have addressed the vast majority of comments we’ve received,” he said.

which will be available for public comment; later this summer they will submit a design-build package for tender with the successful bidder completing the final detailed design and building the bridge. The design would be completed over the winter with construction on the two-year project beginning in the spring of 2016, Raby said. “We’re looking to wrap his project up this year from a preliminary design [standpoint],” he said. The bridge is in “overall poor to fair” condition at this stage. Raby said the company’s economic analysis “significantly” favoured replacing rather than rehabilitating the bridge. The bridge’s “hydraulic clearance” does not meet current design standards and that “further pushed” the replacement versus rehabilitation alternative.

Hello, NASA, students at Hillcrest want to know about planet hopping By John Campbell

News - Campbellford - Who better to call when learning about space than the people who make their living exploring it, the experts at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Students at Hillcrest Public School were able to get the information they needed for their studies in an online video conference that took place last week between Patrick Muldoon’s Grade 6 class and the manager of NASA’s Digital Learning Network

based at the Langley Research Centre in Virginia. The one-hour interactive educational presentation, or webinar, was arranged by KarenLiu Crosby, a teacher candidate who is gaining practical experience in her chosen profession during a five-week practicum at Hillcrest. “She wanted to use some technology to help the kids go through a science unit” on space, and she found this resource at NASA, Muldoon said. His class used a Smart Board,

laptops and tablets to connect to the space agency May 14 and bring the material the students were studying “a little more alive than it normally would be out of an outdated textbook,” he said. “It’s amazing. I was really surprised it was a free resource and that they do it outside of the U.S.” One of the activities the 19 students engaged in was to determine how high they could jump on the other planets, given the difference in gravity. The next day Grade 5 students

Because it’s “quite low” it would lead to flooding on the highway during a major storm event, Raby said. The existing bridge is 11.5 metres wide with “relatively narrow shoulders.” The new bridge will be 14.5 metres wide with three-metre-wide shoulders. The bridge will be built on a new alignment, shifted

approximately 4.2 metres south of the existing bridge. “There will be no more narrowing of the highway at this section. It will match the highway approach,” said Raby. Although there will be no detours, there will be some traffic impacts at the Third Line of Asphodel for a two-week period during the later stages of the project, he said. Studies reveal the need to do

some minor excavation down the centre of the highway and that will impact traffic entering and exiting the Third Line. Traffic will be forced to go only right from both the north and south. Raby and project manager Mike de Lugt of the MTO said advanced signage and additional notification through mail-outs and council during that construction stage will remind residents about the Third Line impacts.

connected to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida for a webinar on states of matter. Crosby said she was looking for something that was “engaging and motivating” for the students when she began planning her unit lessons and she found it on the NASA website. The module about “planet hopping in the solar system” was a nice match for the students who “were really excited” to learn from the experts. It’s a unique experience they will remember, she said. The Peterborough resident, who taught Kindergarten on-and-off for 14 years in Taiwan, is nearing the end of a one-year program to earn her teaching certificate at Trent University, which will allow her to teach up to Grade 6. “One of the exciting things about having [student teachers] is that they bring new ideas … and technology,” Muldoon said, which he incorporates into his own teaching. “You’re teaching them and you’re learning from them at the same time; it’s a real good partnership,” he said. “All of us benefit” from teacher candidates, principal Connie Hodson

now, and the job prospects are fairly slim,” he said. “It’s very competitive. They have to start on supply teacher lists and work their way up into contract positions. It takes a while.” Hodson said “it’s also a lot of work for the teachers in the classroom,” because their “professional reputation” is on the line and they are still “answerable to the parents, regardless of who does the teaching.”

Team captain of the “Believers� encourages support for Trent Hills Relay For Life 2015

She and 14 others, family members and friends, will be participating in the Trent Hills Relay For Life 2015. “Our son has been ďŹ ghting cancer for over two years,â€? she said. “Jason and his wife Jeannette will be in the relay,â€? she added. Within days of announcing she was participating in this year’s fundraiser, “We had all kinds of money coming in,â€? she noted. “All the money we have raised, it has all been donations from all other family members and friends,â€? she added with excitement. To date her team has raised $6,600.

“My daughter-in-law went last year to the relay but didn’t fundraise. This year two of our close circle of friends were diagnosed with cancer and are currently undergoing treatment too so that is why I said maybe we should start a team. Within two days we had 14 members,â€? she explained. Her husband Garth will be there cheering her on along their other son Vernon and “a number of our neighbours.â€?

fundraising specialist with the Peterborough & District Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society. She talked about this year’s overall goal. “We are working toward raising $110,000. This is a big target but communities in Trent Hills have been very supportive and generous in the past,� she said. “The money goes to support the best cancer research in Ontario and to support the programs and services that run right in Trent Hills, such as our Wheels of Hope transportation service, our toll free Cancer Information Service, Smokers’ Helpline, Peer Support and Cancer Connection.ca,� she added. On average, 524 Canadians will be diagnosed with cancer every

At the time of this interview 14 teams had signed up for this year’s Trent Hills Relay For Life which will take place on Friday, June 19, from 6 p.m. to midnight, at the fairgrounds. “People can register up to bank night on June 17,â€? said Vassiliadis. “We are really looking forward to relay this year with hopes of no rain.

Public meeting in Campbellford about poverty reduction raises many concerns By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - The faces of poverty were missing but the reality of those living with it was not as the final in a series of public, communitybased meetings was held here last week. Campbellford was the last stop in an information gathering process which began in Port Hope, moved to Cobourg then Brighton and finally to Campbellford as part of a provincial poverty reduction strategy process. The “town hall meetings” were co-hosted by Northumberland County and United Way Northumberland County Community and Social Services Department Direc- Northumberland and modertor Mark Darroch helped host a public meeting held in Campbellford, the ated by Theresa Dostaler, a confinal in a series on poverty reduction strategies. Theresa Dostaler, a consul- sultant hired by the county. tant hired by the county, was the facilitator. Photo: Sue Dickens “It’s exploratory. We’re thinking big picture and so there

are some trends but also some very specific things that are coming up in each community that are interesting and probably need more investigation,” Dostaler told the Independent prior to the event. The room at the Campbellford Resource Centre filled quickly as approximately 60 people showed up to offer their suggestions and experiences; most represented agencies servicing the area. “My goal today is to let people know about the poverty reduction strategy and then look at community suggestions around challenges and potential solutions to eliminate poverty,” Dostaler explained.

Department agreed, “Today is for gathering information about what people are experiencing living in poverty.” He acknowledged that most in attendance “are agency reps.” “People in poverty are proud and they have dignity and we have to respect that. That doesn’t mean they failed,” he added. Darroch noted there has been a “reasonable turnout at each of the meetings, with very solid and direct observations about poverty.” About 35 attended in Brighton, 55 in Cobourg and 42 in Port Hope. Food security, transportation, education, employment, health care and mental health addictions were among the issues raised. “I am involved at the provincial level too and the same types of issues are in downtown Toronto,” Darroch noted. Among those in the audience here was Russ Christianson, a business consultant who lives in Campbellford and was the NDP candidate in the last several provincial elections. He commented on the correlation between poverty and health. “As a person who is middle class I feel upset … if you have any compassion as a human being … I don’t see why we can’t just increase welfare rates, employment insurance, CPP [Canada Pension Plan] all that kind of stuff … why can’t we just take care of each other, so that’s what upsets

me.” Christianson also spoke of how people living on fixed incomes do not have enough money to keep up with rising housing costs including hydro. The meeting topics included everything from “What does poverty look like in your community?” to “What are some of the challenges?” to “What does homelessness look like?” and more. Topics touched on affordable housing, child care, youth services, recreational programs, emergency services and more. Dostaler outlined the Ontario Poverty Reduction Strategy (2014) and how it has moved into the second phase. “The five-year strategy by the Ontario government is to reduce poverty by 25 per cent,” she commented. A total of $50 million in funding is being made available to agencies for program proposals. Darroch announced that a community forum will be hosted by the county on June 18 at 2 p.m. at the Aron Theatre where agencies will provide information about the resources and services they offer to the people of Trent Hills. “Our biggest challenge is communication and education. The more we introduce ourselves to the community the more they get to know we do have services here,” he said.

James” experiences at coffee shops big and small across the province and beyond. Even The Huffington Post’s Canadian edition, one of the online world’s biggest reads, picked up on the story adding the phrase “beautiful legacy” to its headline. James, 35, was killed in a tragic snowmobile accident February 19 when his machine collided with a car on County Road 45 north of Cobourg. He left behind his wife Brooke, daughter Maggie, 12, and sons Jesse, eight, and Griffin, five. “It means so much to keep James’ spirit alive by making this world a little bit nicer,” his wife Brooke says of “One For James” while thanking everyone for “sharing and supporting” the simple act of kindness. Even her daughter Maggie received a “One For James” coffee and her mother shared the photo with the growing “One For James” Facebook page community which had well over 2,200 “Likes” as of this writing. “He was an incredible man/father/

husband and more; please carry on his legacy “buy one for James,” one supporter posted. “James would always buy a coffee for the next person in the drive through and make someone’s day in a small way,” said friend and Three Days Grace lead singer Matt Walst. “I’m so happy to play a small part in such a huge amazing thing,” said Cassandra Wrightly. “Sharing is caring,” added another Facebook poster. And from the “One For James” site itself this post: “Finding a person at Tims that hasn’t heard of us yet is like finding a Yeti riding a Unicorn petting a Leprechaun. Cherish your ability to educate.” James had a lively sense of humour and would have appreciated the smiling sense of larkiness in that comment. How about doing your part to brighten up someone’s day by adding a little grace note of civility to the pell-mell, rush-rush of our daily lives. Buy “One For James.”

News - Warkworth - Experiencing life on the Serengeti was an outdoor adventure the Girl Guides of Warkworth will never forget. “We had 40 members from Warkworth Guiding, 31 girls and nine leaders, participate in the Toronto Zoo’s Serengeti Bush Camp,â€? explained Guide leader Tracy Russell. This was a first for many of the Guides but for Russell and some of the others it was a return visit. The Toronto Zoo’s Serengeti Bush Camp is one of the activities available there and it offers people the chance to experience the wildlife of the African Savanna and Rainforest Pavilion, enjoy evening activities, campfire tales and the chance to sleep under the stars in authentic African tents. The Girl Guides arrived at the zoo and were whisked away in a Zoomobile that took them to the bush camp site. “We experienced many behindthe-scenes opportunities in the African Savanna area. Everyone was thrilled with ‌ the two giraffes where we not only learned a lot and were up close, but everyone was able to feed these magnificent creatures,â€? Russell said. The adventure unfolded with dinner the night of their arrival at the Simba Safari Lodge Restaurant which overlooks the grassland animal habitat of the rhinoceros. After the girls participated in an active scavenger hunt through the African Savanna, it was time for “smoresâ€? at the campfire. â€œWe could hear the lions roaring and the hyenas laughing,â€?

Since the new program began several weeks ago the prognosis for its success is good. “The volunteers themselves seem to really enjoy it and staff says it is a good idea,â€? said Toms. The hospital has about 20 volunteers who carry out a variety of tasks such as getting water jugs to the patients in the morning, transporting patients to the lab or X-ray if need be, delivering reports for the different departments, delivering mail and so on. “We have some volunteers dedicated to the Ontario breast screening program and restor-

Defending champions starting from scratch after undefeated season By John Campbell

Quarterback Kieran Hannigan reeled off several long runs to lead his team to victory. Photo: John Campbell

Sports - Campbellford – After winning the Belleville Minor Football League championship in 2014 by going undefeated, the Trent Hills Titans are back at square one. They lost three straight to open the season before edging Scott’s Haulage/Diamond Electric Falcons 27-24 on May 21 at home It’s “a rebuilding year,” says coach Tom Stephens, as almost half of his 37 players are in Grade 6, making for a young, undersized team, and there are fewer than a dozen players from last season’s triumphant crew to provide experience. Just one member of the offensive squad is in Grade 8. “We lost a lot of great players,” Stephens said, including the league’s MVP in running back Matt Sherwin. “We basically had to start

from scratch. We had to rebuild the whole offence.” He also had to come with a new defensive line. However there are several siblings of former Titans, which has Stephens optimistic he has the foundation for a winning team. “The good thing is a lot of them has been exposed to football for quite some time because of their older brothers playing for us,” Stephens said. “So these kids aren’t exactly new [to the sport], they have a good

familiarity with the game as such, and what it takes [to win].” They’re “a real exciting team ... [and] a very talented group of young players,” he said. “Each week they get just that little bit better and better.” An encouraging sign was the Titans’ first win, playing before family and friends at Campbellford District High School. Kieran Hannigan, Julian Masters, Kevin Hoy and Dawson Baptie scored touchdowns to pace the attack.

I don’t other events this season in- know about the Olympics, cluding the Kawartha cham- but that would be cool.” She has tickets to watch pionships which qualified athletes for the provincial the Pan Am archery competition this summer in Toronto festival. “I had no idea how large where Embury will also be a it was becoming,” said judge. “I like the travelling and Coons. “When we were at the Kawartha competition the mental requirements for I had no idea we were the it,” Zoe says of the sport. “It’s

mously important in the sport, Zoe says. Blocking out distractions and the competitors next to you are critical. In the second round athletes are usually paired side-byside with the competitor they’re closest to in points. “Visualization is a big part of the sport. I read articles on visualization and visualize myself shooting.” Coons was impressed with how cool the athletes are under pressure. “If you’re shooting against a lefty and you’re a righty you’re face-to-face with each other. It’s not for everybody but it’s something that people who aren’t traditional athletes pick up and really excel at.” “You just focus on the arrows,” Zoe said. “You just think about what you’re doing and it usually goes as planned.”

Campbellford Rotary urgently in need of host families for exchange program News - Campbellford - The Campbellford Rotary Club is seeking two additional host families in the Campbellford area to participate in hosting a 16-yearold boy from Chile during the coming 2015/2016 school year. Hosting is “a tremendous experience in which you can share in a young person’s hopes and dreams and develop a lifelong connection with a student and family from another country,” said George Pyke, a parent whose daughter will be heading to Finland as part of the exchange program. He and his family will be hosting an exchange student here for part of their stay here. The student will live with more than one family and is required to attend high school regularly as a full-time student. Host families in the youth exchange program can be Rotarians or non-Rotarians, and can be homes with young children, older children, or no children at all. Each year about 8,000 students from

B

b ar

over 100 countries participate in exchanges through the Rotary Youth Exchange program. Inbound long-term exchange is open to students ages 16 to 17 and it usually lasts from 10 to 11 months. “Hosting a student can be an extremely rewarding experience for everyone in the family, yet it is a role that requires a lot of responsibility,” said Pyke. Host families are screened, selected and supported by their respective Rotary Club and district. “As a host family, you would meet, be in close contact with, and have the support of members of the local Rotary Club and district,” he explained. Anyone interested in learning more about becoming a Rotary Youth Exchange host family, please contact Kimberly at <emilyville@windswept.ca> or 705-632-9419 or George at 705-6532030. As this is an urgent need for the 2015-2016 school year, please respond by May 31.

Golden day for Saarah at COSSA

By Bill Freeman

Sports - Belleville - It was a golden day for Saarah Rivera at the COSAA track and field championships in Belleville. The Norwood District High School Knights junior javelin thrower avenged last year’s sub-par performance with the track day of her life and a first-place finish nailing the event’s best throw with a distance of 27.51 metres, still two metres shy of the throw she had to win this year’s Kawartha championship. Teammate Jacob Bennett also earned a medal with a third-place finish in the senior shot put with a throw of 11.93 metres. Bennett also placed fourth in the javelin with a personal best of 35.99 metres. The top five finishers at COSSA move on to the Eastern Regionals at Thousand Islands Secondary School in Brockville where they’ll try to qualify for the provincial (OFSAA) finals at the University of Toronto. The Knights, with 31 athletes in 55 events at COSSA, will have five individual athletes and the midget girl’s 400-metre relay team competing in Brockville. Saarah admits that she was disappointed with last year’s COSSA result and used her 2014 outing as motivation for this year’s competition. “I knew what I had to do to improve for this year and it was pretty much all about using that to compete better,” she said. “It was going to be tough after not making it as far as I wanted to last year.” Much of her preparation was about “focussing on what I was doing at the moment [and] not thinking about what’s ahead.” It was a big and competitive field and Saarah said that after a “bit of calming down and relaxing” she was ready to get into the groove and hit the gold-medal distance on her second last attempt of the day. “There’s definitely room for improvement so I’ll be looking for some good practices.” Saarah also competes in discus and shot put which are “totally different throws” from javelin. She likes javelin because it’s “fun and competi-

tive at the same time.” Also qualifying for the Eastern Regionals are fourth-place finishers Emma Beavis with a 20.27metre throw in the midget javelin; Shannon Scriver with a personal best throw of 19.80 metres in the midget discus and the 40-metre girls relay team of Cassie Armstrong, Ashton Gee, Melissa Benvenete and Alexa Vanderhorst with a time of 58.92. The top eight athletes at COSSA received awards. Placing eighth were Ashton Gee, long jump; Jack Wilson, 100-metre hurdles; senior boy’s relay team of Alex Barrett, Travis Bennett, Jacob Bennett and Mike Burtt. In seventh place were Travis Bennett, javelin; Nic Buchanan, 100-metre hurdles and Alexa Vanderhorst, 80-metre hurdles. In sixth place were Nic Buchanan, javelin and Simon Dubeau, midget 300-metre hurdles.

Danielle ďŹ nished with a time of 12.91 seconds in the midget girls class at Belleville May 21 and Robin with a time of 13.5 in junior girls. Danielle also collected a silver in the junior shot put with a toss of 11.07 metres and a bronze in the discus throw, and both girls earned silver as members of the high school’s junior 100-metre relay team. The other members of the team were Kristien Duff and Daniella Ruisendaal, who also collected a silver for placing second in the

women’s 100-metre dash (midget class) with a time of 13.55 seconds. Ruisendaal ďŹ lled in for Miranda Macklin who was injured and unable to take her spot on the relay team. Seven CDHS students qualiďŹ ed to compete at the East Regional championships that begin May 28 in Brockville. The others are silver medallists Kristen Doyle (midget girls discus, with a toss of 20.89 metres) and Faith Culp (midget girls javelin throw, 21.95 metres). Dylan Blackwood, who placed ďŹ fth in the senior boys 100-metre dash,

Danielle Herfst bettered last year’s single silver medal performance at COSSA, and hopes to do the same at East Regionals, where she failed to snag a medal. She admitted to being “nervousâ€? but added: “I think we have a good chance.â€? Giving her conďŹ dence was the

The sisters train almost every night after school at the fairgrounds, and “sometimes on weekends we’ll practise sprinting [and] shot put techniques,â€? Danielle said. Robin placed ďŹ fth in the midget girls shot put. Ruisendaal is conďŹ dent she will do well. “I like running,â€? it’s among her favourite sports and the one “she’s best at,â€? said the Grade 9 student.

Chainsaws roar during the Chainsaw Challenge By Brett Mann

The effort of using a cross-cut saw is evident on the face of Natasha Bardy as she competes in the Obstacle Course competition at the Wyatt Davis Memorial Chainsaw Challenge.

News - Marlbank - The Marlbank ball field echoed with the roar of chainsaws recently at the 15th annual Wyatt Davis Memorial Chainsaw Challenge. Men and women, youth and adults, some from as far away as Perth and Kemptville watched or participated in the 23 classes of competition. Wyatt “Bud” Davis was a Grade 8 student from Marlbank who tragically lost his life in 2000 in a logging accident. The Chainsaw Challenge is held yearly in his memory. Chainsaw competitions include supplied (by manufacturers Stihl and Husky), stock classes and modified “nitro-burning” saws. “Specialty classes” offer a series of practical and imaginative contests such as obstacle course, where competitors race through tasks involving log rolling and throwing and crosscut sawing. Other contests involve water boiling, axe throwing, nail driving, chainsaw throwing, chair carving and the physically challenging “underhand chop” competition. A new feature this year is the “cookie stacking” contest where entrants attempt to stack wooden pieces using the blade of a running chainsaw. A total of over $2,000 in cash and prizes are up for grabs at the Chainsaw Challenge. “It’s an awesome day,” said organizer Bill Langridge. “This year we’ve got four or five new competitors. The newest competition is cookie stacking. We’re just going to try it this year and see how it works out. It’s really, really hard.” Langridge estimates there are 30 to 35 competitors participating this year, noting that some come from “Kemptville, Peterborough, Bancroft, Oxford Mills, Perth, Kingston … they’re kind of from all over.” Langridge “gets things set up and then others help out. It’s all free for anybody watching and competitors Please see “Marlbank” on page B5

haviour,â€? Mayor Hector Macmillan said. After November 30, “we’ll be evaluating how it went ‌ It’s not going to be an automatic renewal.â€? Operating ATVs on municipal roads “is a privilege,â€? he said. Application has been made to Northumberland County to allow ATVs on several of its roads (24, 29, 30, 38 and 45) and bridges (in Campbellford and Hastings). Trent Hills will also seek permission from the federal government for its swing bridges in the two centres, and Ontario Power Genera-

Kelleher-MacLennan also asked about penalties for people who violate the bylaw. “The police are going to enforce it so all the offences and ďŹ nes would be according to the Highway TrafďŹ c Act,â€? replied Neil Allanson, manager of roads and urban services. The bylaw was amended at Mayor Hector Macmillan’s insistence to specify that only all-terrain-vehicles with stock factory exhaust systems will be permitted, to keep their noise to a minimum. “If they’ve got modiďŹ cations, they’re not allowed on the road, plain and simple,â€? he said. Eleven signs, at $300 apiece, will be posted at entrances to Trent Hills saying ATV use is now allowed on municipal roads but at the statutory speed for the vehicles (20 kilometres an hour in 50 kilometre-an-hour zones, and 50 kilometres an hour if the speed limit is more than 50 kilometres an hour). Allanson said letters will be sent to the Northumberland District ATV Riders and the local Trent Hills ATV association ofďŹ cially informing of the bylaw’s passage and reminding them of the speed limits in effect. Only one member of the public spoke out against the bylaw. Ted Stillman asked council why ATV operators were given “blanket approval to run all municipal roads,â€? when it could drive up the municipality’s insurance costs. “Most of you don’t live in the rural area, so you don’t have to worry about them,â€? he said. “It’s all roads, not just rural,â€? Macmillan responded. Kelleher-MacLennan added that “once you identify certain roads then the liability is even greater.â€? Stillman then wanted to know why Please see “ATVsâ€? on page B3

council members were “catering to all these people that live outside the community and not listening to the people inside the community,â€? and he insisted the bylaw would not be for a trial period. Macmillan pointed out the “room was full of people from Trent Hillsâ€? who showed support for a bylaw when the issue was discussed at previous council meetings. And “if there have been difďŹ culties or problems that can’t be overcome, then that will be the end of the bylaw,â€? he said.

He called it a “sad chapter in our history.â€? “There has been lots of time for reection [and the feeling] that you are not alone,â€? said Etherington, born into the Treaty 9 Moose Cree First Nation in the James Bay region and a survivor of the St. Anne’s Residential School in Fort Albany. The group has been on the road since leaving Cochrane April 8 and billeted in various churches along the route including the United Church in Havelock and the community’s ministerial association. The conversations along the journey “have been good,â€? says Etherington. The message they want to deliver in Ottawa, says Etherington, is that “something did happen in residential schools. “It’s real; it’s the truth,â€? he said. “After that they’re talking about reconciliation and that’s hard, big work that needs to be done.â€? “We need to move to another dialogue and begin to understand more about it but at

the same time we need to have input about into how and on the other side have access to what it is we’re talking about to begin to create that dialogue.� Etherington is buoyed by the response from First Nations’ youth. “They recognize the description of what the truth is and its impacts. Maybe they’re even feeling it in a way that they are part of it because they remember certain issues that affected them through their parents. “They are really serious about it and say they will help and [they say] the way The Oshapawishak Truth and Reconciliation Walkers stopped in Havelock on their long journey from they are going to help is to Cochrane to Ottawa where they will participate in the closing events of the national Truth and Recmake sure that my dad and onciliation Commission on Indian Residential Schools.

ďŹ rst court-ordered commission to be established with a reach that goes back 150 years when the ďŹ rst church-run residential schools were opened with the goal of trying to “kill the Indian in the child.â€? Over 130 residential schools existed, the last closed 1996. More than 150,000 First Nations, Metis and Inuit children were taken from their families and communities and placed in the schools with the intention of breaking the bond between child, family and community, forbidding many to speak their native language or practise their culture.

Friends of Ferris requesting submissions for their new “Memory Book” project By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Capturing the memories of Ferris Provincial Park for posterity is the focus of the latest project of Friends of Ferris (FofF) a non-profit group of volunteers dedicated to keeping this remarkable place alive for generations to come. The group is requesting submissions from residents and visitors describing their experiences at the park. “We’re hoping to find descendants of the land that was settled and now is part of the

park but we’d like to expand the project to include other memorable stories about people enjoying their time in the park, families or individuals who use the park, stories about family reunions and happy experiences there,” said Carol Robertson, a longtime FoF volunteer whose participation in the park and its programs is legendary. “There’s so much history in the park we don’t even know about. So many families owned land where the park is today. I thought I would ask

for submissions and appeal through the paper and keep it on the website so it is visual so people can see the stories,” she explained. Friends of Ferris already has had help from descendants of two of the families who settled the land in the 1800s. “One of the two stories we’ve gathered is the history of the [Nathan] Grills family and Joan Sheppard has helped

me with that,” Robertson said. “Mason and Elizabeth Grills purchased property along the river in 1871 and they farmed for three generations then sold to William Scott in 1934 as pasture,” she commented. “Nathan Grills is my great-greatgrandfather,” Sheppard told the Independent. “It has been fascinating learning more about the history of the Grills family and how long they have been in this area,” she said. “I learned that the gravel used to put the roads in Ferris Park came from my grandfather, Harry Grills’ farm, which is just down the road and where I grew up. I was able to purchase that farm about 15 years ago and return to my roots.” The stone foundation of the Grills cabin remains a part of the park’s landscape. Barb Hogan, president of FoF is also a descendant of the Grills family. The second story is about the Robert Cock family. “To start the project I found an article written by James Currie about his ancestors from England who immigrated to Canada in 1834,” said Robertson. Robert and Elizabeth (née Currie) Cock farmed 200 acres of land that has a five-generation history in the Ferris Park, she explained. The book Gleanings published by the Campbellford-Seymour Heritage Society references three generations of the Cock family who farmed the land from 1835 to 1943. “At that time a fourth generation daughter Margaret married Oscar Rannie and they and their four children continued the farming tradition,” said Robertson.

Friends of Ferris is requesting submissions for their “Memory Book.” Ted Grills and his niece Joan Sheppard, front, are descendants of the Grills family, early pioneers on the land in the 1800s. They are holding a photo featuring Sheppard’s great-great-grandfather Nathan Grills (in the centre). Barb Hogan, standing, president of Friends of Ferris, is also a descendant of the Grills family. Photo: Submitted

“It has been said that we don’t know where we are going unless we know where we have been. This is our chance to learn about other historical experiences in the park and to get a glimpse of our future as a community,” Robertson said. “We plan on keeping a re-

cord of all the submissions we receive and collate them in a three-ring binder to be kept at the park office for posterity as a historic record.” Submissions can be emailed to <info@friendsofferris.ca> or mailed to Friends of Ferris, P.O. Box 504, Campbellford, K0L 1L0.

pay a small fee, $2 to $20 per event. Because we have such good sponsorship we can keep the entry fee down.” He notes that there are “a lot of local sponsors from Tweed, Belleville, Napanee” as well as more distant ones. The wood used is in the form of eight inch square poplar logs supplied by Chisholm’s Lumber. DeVries Log Homes donate the Competitors race to be the first to bring a can of water to a boil in the Water wood for the chair carving event. “All Boil event. A stiff breeze made fire lighting tricky but most entrants produced the wood is donated and that helps us boiling water in less than five minutes.

immensely,” says Mr. Langridge. “The competition chains are very fine and any hardwood would just break the chains.” The water boiling event is perennially popular and this year gusting breezes threatened to make lighting fires difficult. Nonetheless most competitors managed to bring their coffee cans full of water to a boil quickly, in under four or five minutes. One member of the two-person teams concentrates on lighting the fire (paper and matches) while

another rapidly splits small lengths of dry cedar to stack under and around the cans. Modified nitro-burning “hot saws” are a highlight of the Chainsaw Challenge. A visitor is cautioned not to stand in front of the running saws because of the chance that the high compression and speeds of the machines might break chains. “Modified” is a broad category. Langridge uses two saws running tanks

full of nito-methane in 250cc two-stroke motorcycle engines. Mr. Langridge and his son have a June show coming up at “Hillbilly Heaven” in Napanee where they will be doing chair carving. He is enthusiastic at the ongoing success of the Chainsaw Challenge. “Seems like it’s going as strong as ever. We’ll keep it going as long as we can, with thanks to all our sponsors.”

TRAVEL By John M. Smith

British Columbia’s awesome Rogers Pass

Lifestyles - The Rogers Pass, a National Historic Site of Canada, is in the heart of British Columbia’s Glacier National Park, and it’s the most direct route to get between Calgary and Kamloops. It’s the Trans Canada Highway (#1) route, and it was also the rail route built by the Canadian Pacific Railway. I’ve driven through this narrow valley that’s surrounded by spectacular mountain peaks more than once, and I’ve even cycled through this awesome mountain pass. The Rogers Pass was discovered in 1881 by Major Albert Bowman Rogers, who was employed as a surveyor for the Canadian Pacific Railway. The rail route was built through this pass in 1884, and the road route was completed many years later in 1962. These routes provided a shortcut between Revelstoke and Golden, but they also caused serious engineering challenges. This area is particularly well known for its heavy winter snowfall (up to 20 metres), which has led to several terrifying and destructive avalanches. Therefore, the rail line had to build the eight-kilometre-long Connaught Tunnel, in 1916, under the pass; at the time, it was the longest railway tunnel in North America. Later, the 14.7-kilometre Mount MacDonald Tunnel was built and it’s now the longest railway tunnel; a series of rail loops to deal with the steepness of the pass were also constructed. Both the rail line and the Trans Canada Highway had to build several snow sheds along their routes,

too. The Rogers Pass has an elevation of 1,380 metres, and while you’re at its summit, you should check out the Rogers Pass Discovery Centre. It’s a replica of a historic railroad snow shed, and it’s an information centre

that Explore magazine once referred to as “the best national park museum in Canada.” It’s a great place to learn more about the history of Canada’s transcontinental railway. Glacier National Park offers some incredible hiking opportu-

nities, and I’d strongly recommend checking out some of these while in this area. For example, the Abandoned Rail Interpretive Trail is said to be “Canada’s shortest rail trail”; the 1.2-kilometre stretch was once a part of the original rail line, but it was replaced when the Connaught Tunnel was completed. There’s also an uphill climb of 3.2 kilometres one way to Marion Lake, and from here it’s just a short side trip to a spectacular lookout above the Trans Canada Highway, where there’s a great view of trains entering and exiting the Connaught Tunnel. I’d also recommend exploring the Great Glacier Trail (3.6 kilometres one way), the Avalanche Crest Trail (5 kilometres one way), the Asulkan Valley Trail (6.9

The Memorial Arch at the summit of the Rogers Pass.

kilometres one way), and the shorter (1.6-kilometre round-trip) Loop Brook Trail. This park has three campgrounds (the largest is Illecillewaet) and five designated backcountry camping areas. None of these are maintained during the winter season, but the road is kept open, and backcountry cross-country skiing is available. Check at the Rogers Pass Discovery Centre for the latest trail conditions and avalanche bulletins. My most recent trip through this mountain pass was by automobile in May, and there was still quite a bit of snow to be seen along the road. In fact, I discovered that COACH & TOURS many of the area’s campgrounds were still closed because of the snow, and several of the lakes were still covered in ice. As I drove up the pass itself, I stopped at the very summit to see the Memorial Arch displayed EXPERIENCE THE ROAD TO there, commemorating the completion of the Trans Canada Highway over this pass, EXCELLENCE and I couldn’t help but wonder how I’d St. Jacobs - Saturday, June 6/15 & Saturday, September 12/15 managed to cycle through this very treachAfrican Lion Safari - Tuesday, July 7/15 erous, challenging terrain many years ago.

The Good Earth:

Not my customer?

Dan Clost Lifestyles - Gentle Reader, this will be a unique column in terms of garden writer offerings. It needs to be presented with tact and delicacy, which, if you know me, provides a bit of a challenge. There are two easily distinguishable groups of customers cluttering up the aisles of garden centres and nurseries. Group 1 are those who are purchasing plants for their own use; the retail crowd. Group 2 are tradespersons, usually landscapers, purchasing plants to be installed on someone else’s property for which they will receive payment; the trade group. Retail customers expect and should receive full attention and service. A retail customer is not expected to know about plants, soil conditions, feeding, pH levels etc. Many do but some do not. It is the salesperson’s responsibility to determine that knowledge set and help the customer make a good decision. Often, stores will offer warranties to let the customer know they are willing to back up their suggestions and their plants. Retail customers have two primary concerns: can I get them in the colours I want and how do I refrain from impulse buying? (Here are two answers for the latter. A money-grubbing shop owner might counter with the question, “Why would I want to prevent impulse buying? It’s a store; I want you to give me all of your money.” A wiser person, more interested in building a lasting relationship, will offer up three suggestions: 1 - Make a list and a budget; 2 - Stick to both; 3 - Buy the non-glamour items, e.g. manure, soil, digging fork first, then go for the eye-candy. You

can always come back tomorrow, next week or next year with a new list and a new budget. Retail customers are very easy to define. The second category of trade is not as homogenous as you might think. There are two subgroups within the larger bracket. The largest is the more familiar: guys and gals in the horticulture trades. I like to use the term “hortulan” because it describes the business precisely and is much easier to say than horticulturalist. Hortulans are the gardeners, garden designers, landscape designers, planters, architects, arborists, carpenters, stone masons, growers of trees, flowers and sod, garden centres and landscape nurseries. The easiest way to define them is to say that the products they purchase are re-sold to their clients. These are the individuals or companies who merit a wholesale pricing structure. This is usually a bare-bones pricing system which looks only at the cost of the plant and not the other bits that are peculiar to retail such as plant warranties, one-on-one discussion, and other attendant services. A hortulan has a plant list, they come and get it, they pay money and they go. The smaller set is the tradespeople not normally engaged in the green industry. For example, a plumber might need to install a water line. In order to accomplish that task, they might need to dig up a hedge or a tree. When they are done, they replace those plants. Their purchases are meant to complete a job and are not purchased as part of the original reason for which they were hired, to install plumbing. Some outlets will offer a “contractor” discount. All of this makes perfect sense and fits into a well-defined green universe, doesn’t it? GR, there is no universe which doesn’t include things that go bump in the night. Here’s the bump: while there are two easily identifiable groups there is a less obvious third set. These good folk, e.g. the Smiths, are those

who retained the services of a hortulan. They hired ABC Hortulan Inc. to design and install a landscape of varying scope. They are customers of ABC. Yes, the plants for their home will come from the garden centre but they will not be paying the garden centre or landscape nursery for them. They will pay ABC. The rub comes when the Smiths arrive at the store and ask for someone to walk around and help choose plants for them, with lots of discussions about options. They are expecting retail service. This is the delicate part, GR. One can reasonably argue that they are the reason that ABC will be buying plants from the company; usually a significant amount of coin is involved. They should receive full customer service. One can also present the viewpoint that this exercise is the responsibility of ABC to their customer. In this scenario, ABC is the customer of the landscape nursery and the Smiths are their customer. Why should a nursery provide retail level of service knowing they will only receive wholesale level payments? Here is what happens in reality. Many garden centres don’t offer wholesale pricing or, if they do, it is minimal. That way, the cost of retail services is covered in all transactions. Some will accompany the Smiths and provide full services and chalk it up as the cost of doing business. The result will be increased pricing to cover those costs. Some nurseries will have a chat with ABC and make the distinction between customer and client. The full package of services will be offered to the Smiths but ABC will pay full retail costs. The Smiths find themselves in a unique, and surprising, category. It is the responsibility of us hortulans to make sure they aren’t. And, certainly, there will be many dissenting viewpoints on this matter but any good argument needs a reasonable (Ellyn’s pun) foundation.

Lifestyles - Madoc Township - The O’Hara Mill Homestead and Conservation area officially opened Victoria Day weekend. It is a “local treasure” commemorating early settlement history in Ontario, located north of Madoc between Toronto and Ottawa, just west of the junction of the original Hastings Trail, now Highway 62, and Highway 7, the Trans Canada Highway.

The O’Hara family set down roots there in 1823, with the last direct descendant passing on in 1932. The property remained in the family until it was sold to the Quinte Conservation Authority in 1954. In 1965 it was designated a park and conservation reserve, with five original buildings being declared heritage sites. Over the years those buildings, the farmhouse, carriage-house, sawmill, shed and woodworking shop, have been re-

stored. The original log cabin, built when the O’Haras arrived, has been reconstructed according to historic records. A log cabin schoolhouse was moved onto the grounds, and recently the mill dam was reconstructed with a covered bridge and walkway installed. The park offers miles of wilderness walking trails, geocaching sites, and is available for special events or tour groups. The first big event of this season is scheduled for July 26, Heritage Day, when visitors can see pioneer activities by a blacksmith, wood workers and a cooper making a wagon wheel, and taste a meal cooked on the open hearth by volunteers in period costume. Marketing and promotions director, Fred Bendell, said there is much going on at the homestead this year. “We have many more projects planned for the future to restore the rest of the property.” Renovation projects are funded by free will donations deposited in collection boxes on the grounds and fundraising projects. This year Bendell says local quilters are donating quilts to be raffled off. Each weekend attendants will be on hand to escort visitors throughout historic buildings and maintain the visitors centre. August 19 is the annual corn boil festival when, once again, visitors can see pioneer equipment at work and children rally to build old-fashioned scarecrows. Visitors will find the sawmill in action during both the July and August events. Sleigh rides and hot cider welcome visitors for Christmas at the Mill each year, and now, in March, volunteers are hosting a Maple Syrup festival, demonstrating how it was done in the old days.

News - Colborne - A few changes have been made to broaden the appeal of the Apple Blossom Tyme Festival, which takes place this weekend. Vendors, for example, will set up in Victoria Square rather than on the street, to spare them having to relocate to make way for the Classic Car Show Sunday. “In the past we’ve had some vendors that have struggled with [that],� festival committee chair Clinton Breau said. With the new arrangement, “it’s logistically less of a headache� for them, he said, and the result is that “we’ve had a number of vendors sign up for the first

time. “We’re constantly trying to address “We’ve been fielding phone calls suggestions from the community [and daily, I have no doubt we will pack that get] random feedback from those who park.â€? are visiting the festival,â€?

A Kids Fun Zone will be set up in front of St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, where youngsters can play laser tag and have their faces painted for free, as well as try out an obstacle course for soapboxes and pet animals. Sawmill Road “was a big success� at the Keeler Centre last year so the band has been asked to take the stage again Saturday night. Also scheduled are customary favourites such as pie-eating, baking and baby contests, a spelling bee, and Irish bowling. There’s also a strong man competition as well as tractor parade and a Show ’n’ Shine for motorcycles.

Once again there will be midway rides, and the plan is to offer children more choices than in years past, Breau said. To view all the events, visit <www. appleblossomtyme.com>. Breau praised “an incredible group� of about 15 volunteers for the time and energy they have put into growing the festival, which is celebrating its 27th year. Although the festival doesn’t officially start until Saturday, the fun begins for the family Friday night with a free showing of Big Hero 6 on the ice pad at the Keeler Centre, starting at 8 p.m.

Thank You

Our family would like to Thank You for all your kind words, hugs, messages and donations for the late Helen Farrow. Mom was a long time resident of Brighton. a member of Trinity St. Andrews Church for over 67 years and served as an elder. Mom and Dad were founding members of Brighton Curling Club and loved to curl. In her earlier years she belonged to the Ladies Bowling League. She tried GolďŹ ng once with Dad but she was a little too noisy, hollering at friends on another tee. That ended her golďŹ ng. She worked in retail over 50 years. In the 50’s for Keene’s Grocery, the 60’s for Stedmans and in the 70’s & 80’s the Hardware Store. She loved her church and the ladies in her unit. Along time member of the Rebeccah Lodge, she received the prestigious “Decoration of Chilvaryâ€?. She loved to quilt, donating many to her church, lodge and hospital. She loved to entertain and play cards. A long time conservative she worked in many elections. She will be missed by many, all having great stories to tell about their Aunt Helen, their Nana, and their friend Helen. Thank you to the staff at Maplewood Longterm Care. She was very proud of her family, her grandchildren and great grandchildren. Most of all she will be missed by her family. A ďŹ nal “Who Hoo!â€? Thank you for being part of her life. “Her Familyâ€?.

IN MEMORIAM

Jan. 3, 1939 – May 31, 2009

Lily Griffiths (5 March, 1935 – 22 May, 2015) We lovingly remember Lily Griffiths (nĂŠe Leech), a woman of strong values and devoted faith who has left us to join her husband, Ken, in the presence of the Lord. She passed away peacefully at Campbellford Memorial Hospital on Friday, May 22, 2015, with loved ones at her side. Lily was born in Edgehill, Liverpool, England on March 5th 1935 and it was there where she met and married Kenneth Griffiths on March 5th 1955. Shortly afterwards, they moved to Scarborough, Ontario where they began a family, eventually leaving Scarborough and settling on a farm in Warkworth, bringing up their family of four children. Throughout her adult life, Lily was greatly involved in many aspects of community and church, generously offering her abilities in baking, knitting, sewing, crafts and supporting people, all with great enthusiasm and energy. For almost 40 years, she was a member of the UCW at St. Paul’s United Church in Warkworth. For fifteen years, Lily also operated her own arts and crafts business, the “Calico Catâ€?, first out of their home and then at a storefront in Warkworth. As she was winding down that business, she became involved with Northumberland continuing education in programs for First Nations in business, as well as studies and work as a librarian. After retirement, Lily and Ken spent a great deal of time volunteering to support school programs, the church auxiliary, the church choir, the Cancer Foundation and palliative care programs at the Campbellford Hospital. Lily was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother and sister. She is predeceased by the love of her life, her husband, Kenneth (1932 – 2011). She is survived by her four children Eric (Anne), Lynn, John (Heather) and Elaine (Dave); 12 grandchildren, 25 greatgrandchildren, her sister Jessie and her niece. While she has left us, loving memories remain. We like to remember Lil now, dancing with Ken as they did, clearing the dance floor, dancing as smoothly as birds swooping across the sand and water and sky – as if they were one person. For all of us who loved her, our joys will be greater, our love will be deeper and our lives will be fuller, because we shared her life. A service will be held Friday, May 29, 2015 at St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, 17 Ranney Street, in Campbellford, beginning at 2 p.m. Donations may be made in Lily’s memory to the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation.

Humane society prepared to expand role in Trent Hills Animals, NHS “is legally responsible for animal cruelty investigations in Northumberland County,â€? Lennan said. “We’re here a few times a week for investigations.â€? More than 300 complaints were investigated in the county last year, most of them involving dogs (153), followed by cats (53), horses (51) and other (51, such as rabbits, lizards and chickens). No charges were laid as the humane society was “able to correctâ€? what it found, Lennan said. The organization found homes for 232 animals last year; six were returned to their owners, six were transferred out, and seven were euthanized. NHS also offers education and programs that promote the well-being of animals, and runs a pet food bank for residents “who are encountering temporary difďŹ culty providing food for

their pets,â€? Lennan said. It provides a minimum two-week supply to help families get through a difďŹ cult time to “ensure their pets do not suffer.â€? Lennan said many people don’t realize the humane society offers as well temporary boarding for owners in need of assistance, to keep “pets safe during a time of crisis until a permanent solution can be found.â€? Crises include a house ďŹ re or ooding, a sudden medical emergency, individuals entering a recovery program or rehab centre, and situations involving domestic violence. The program is “utilized at least a dozen times throughout the year,â€? she said. NHS president Fred Emmons said it was “high timeâ€? for the

organization to make its work better known throughout Northumberland. “You’re going to see a lot more changes� put into effect by a “fairly new board� that’s considerably “more proactive� than its predecessor, he said. “We’ve been analyzing our current operations and ways we can better serve the community [by] developing new programs,� Lennan said. Mayor Hector Macmillan expressed interest in the humane society’s animal control services. “That would be stray pickup and housing,� Lennan replied. When pressed by Macmillan, she said it

could include enforcement. “We’d have to look at bringing in another agent,� because the one now employed is “quite busy with animal investigations,� but the organization is prepared to “have that conversation,� she said. “Put something together so we can look at it,� the mayor said. NHS receives no support from government and relies on monetary donations, community fundraising events, sales at its thrift shop, and generous bequests to provide its services.

News - Trent Hills - The Northumberland Humane Society says it’s “eager and ready to expand its roleâ€? in Trent Hills. In a presentation to council May 19, general manager Kate Lennan said the Port Hope-based charitable organization “would welcome the chanceâ€? to provide animal control services for the municipality “should the opportunity arise in the future.â€? This would be in addition to animal cruelty investigations it already conducts in Trent Hills as part of its county-wide mission, which includes providing shelter and comfort to animals in need, and promoting the adoption and “rehoming [of] abused, neglected, and unwanted companion animals.â€?
