News - Campbellford - Sceptics of a $33-million recreation/wellness centre ever being built in town were presented a sign last week that the project will indeed come to pass some day. The sign, unveiled in a special ceremony held May 30 at the Campbellford fairgrounds, identified the future site of the combined arena/aquatics centre, as well as solicited donations from the community to help make it

The occasion was “not only a meaningful and important milestone for all of us in Trent Hills but for many of our neighbours for miles around [who] are really anxious to see us succeed at this project,” Trent Hills Councillor Rosemary Kelleher-MacLennan told those present. Getting to that point has been a “very long process,” about ten years since the commu-

nity made it clear in public consultations what sort of large-scale project it wanted undertaken, Mayor Hector Macmillan said. It was the community that “dreamed their dream” but it was left up to the municipality to put together the business case that says it can be done, he said. “For all the naysayers out there, we can show you the numbers, that we have the money to afford our share of this facility,” he said. The numbers, read out by KelleherMacLennan, show Trent Hills will raise its one-third share of the costs, $11 million, a variety of ways. Half of it will be paid for by loan or debenture, the remainder by means of $2,475,000 set aside in reserves, a donation of $2 million from the Campbellford-Seymour Community Foundation, and $1 million in fund raising through Flourish, the Trent Hills Wellness Campaign. Repayment of the debt will be achieved using the $450,000 annual tax levy that was established to build up the reserve. The subsequent operating costs of the new and renovated facilities (which includes a field house in Hastings and an addition onto the Warkworth arena) will be covered by the $569,000 Trent Hills paid annually to operate three arenas and an outdoor swimming pool. The mayor surprised everyone by saying he will propose the municipality also take $50,000 of the $160,000 it earns each year in free power rights from the federal government and add it to the $450,000 that will be col-

lected annually for recreational redevelopment. Macmillan also urged residents “to put the heat on the candidates” in the provincial election to pledge their support for provincial funding, and to do the same with their federal MP. NDP candidate Kira Mees, who has been involved in the Flourish campaign, was present for the ceremony and restated her support for the project. Kelleher-MacLennan said the municipality is counting on the community to show its support through donations. So far $176,515 has been raised.

The municipality negotiated a land exchange with the Campbellford-Seymour Agricultural Society to secure a site for a new centre at the fairgrounds. Fair board president Brian Redden said the project is “also a chance to revitalize the fairgrounds” and the agricultural society was “very pleased” to reach an agreement with the municipality to “make this work.” Redden said there is “still quite a bit more work to do as to where things are going to be exactly positioned and so on but we hope to have that nailed

down in the next couple of months.” Kelleher-MacLennan said, “It’s a proven fact … happier communities” have facilities and programs that help young and old stay active and keep fit, which puts “less of a strain” on health-care resources. “Today we are showing our community and our neighbours that we are proactive, not reactive, by taking on this great initiative, and [are] committed to seeing it [succeed] to the betterment of all of us, our children, our grandchildren, and their children.”

NOTICE OF PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE MUNICIPALITY OF TRENT HILLS Schedule ‘B’ Class Environmental Assessment

CAMPBELLFORD WATER SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM UPGRADES The Municipality of Trent Hills (the Municipality) is undertaking a planning process to assess the Campbellford Water Supply and Distribution System for the Campbellford service area (referenced herein as the Campbellford Water System). The Municipality has identified that the community’s water storage tank is in need of interior and exterior rehabilitation, which will require it to be out of service for approximately 8 to 12 weeks, during which time the Campbellford Water System will require provisions to maintain service and reduce risks associated with current treated water storage volumes. This need, coupled with the existing reliability and redundancy of the existing potable water treatment plant, has led the Municipality to consider permanent upgrades to the water system that will not only service the Campbellford community during the standpipe rehabilitation, but also ensure the continued provision of safe drinking water well into the future.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Public consultation is a key component to this Study. The proposed consultation plan provides for a single Public Meeting to review the future servicing alternatives that are being considered as part of this project. This Public Information Centre will identify existing system constraints and potential alternative solutions. The ‘preferred alternative’ currently being considered envisions additional storage capacity and upgraded high lift pumping near the existing Water Treatment Plant facility, located at 58 Saskatoon Ave in Campbellford, ON. The Public Information Centre is scheduled as follows: Date: Wednesday, June 11, 2014 Time: Open House from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m. Location: The Campbellford Cultural Centre Address: 36 Front Street South, Campbellford, ON All those interested in the project are urged to attend.

velop a policy with council and staff,� says ATV Club president Phil Higgins, who admits the club has been “skirting around� the issue the past half-dozen years and that now might be the “appropriate time to begin the work.� The Havelock and District ATV Club has worked with the Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance and successfully linked to the EOTA’s huge 2,400-kilometre trail system, Higgins noted. “The trail is a recreational and economic asset to the community,� he says that can produce $250 a day per visitor in “spinoff revenues.� The Club has produced a draft map identifying areas that

could be good candidates for development if council were to develop a municipal trails policy. “This is proposed, not written in stone,� Higgins emphasized, “but you can see its potential. It would have been nice five years ago to do all these links but here we are still working at it. In the end, I think it would be an awesome investment in the community.� Higgins told council that he’s used a “model policy� from Grey-Bruce as a starting point “cutting and pasting where appropriate� in an attempt to draft a template that would work for Havelock-Belmont-Methuen.

Well, you might be surprised to learn the extent of what really goes on during your regular check-up. In addition to cleaning and polishing all the visible and hidden surfaces of your teeth, we also check for many potential problems. Tooth decay, oral cancer and periodontal (gum) disease are just a few examples of problems that can have serious consequences if left undetected. We recommend that our patients visit our office at least twice each year to ensure their optimal oral health and to help avoid serious and costly problems. In certain cases, we may even recommend 3 or 4 visits per year in order to properly treat conditions that require more regular attention. Maintaining a regular dental appointment schedule isn’t just good for your teeth, it’s an important part of your overall health.

added, was a “really good foundation to begin with.� It’s “critical,� he said, that the club and the municipality begin to create a defined policy. “The club’s existing and proposed routes have relied on its good partnership with the township to connect to the EOTA trail, both in the south at County Road 50 and in the north at the Gut Conservation Area linking to Coe Hill. Future development and growth of this asset to the community will grow best in partnership with the municipality.� There is currently no agreement between the club and township for use of municipal property and unopened road allowances. “It is imperative to the success of the club’s summer season that permission be given to use certain areas of such properties in a timely manner,� Higgins said. They need to begin talking about something that’s going to “advance the economic and recreational advantages� to the community. The municipality and county must think seriously about “developing that side of [this] tourism asset we have in our community,� said Higgins. “Part of the policy and council’s buy-in to the organization of trails would be determining where the road allowances are,� he said. “Our work would be ensuring that we know where the boundaries are. The ideal spot for a trail like we’re doing is public land not private. Private land use agreements can be withdrawn and you can lose a big chunk of trail in a hurry.� Council welcomed Higgins’ presentation. Deputy-mayor Andy Sharpe acknowledged that it’s “small steps that had taken a while.� “Our community has taken the lead in working with the ATV Club where other communities have shied away from ATVs,� added Councillor Larry Ellis. “We appreciate the potential economic spinoffs.�

Tagging for Community Care

News - Norwood - Long-time Community Care volunteer Doreen Clarke was at her familiar post near the Norwood Library during Community Care tag day last Friday. The tag days are one of Community Care Norwood’s top fund raisers and garnered $500 last year. The volunteer organization is gearing up for its nineteenth annual walk-a-thon on June 7. The walk-a-thon is the office’s largest fund raiser and organizers hope to top last year’s total of $1,500. Local restaurant Wrap It Up & Go has signed on as a sponsor and will donate lunch prizes to the top fund raisers. Community Care program staff leader Kelly Small says she’s “excited� by the sponsor help “because it’s a nice way to give a little something back to those who work so hard to raise funds for Community Care and also because it demonstrates support between local businesses and services.�

Shop Asphodel-Norwood will return in 2015

News - Norwood - Township Council has given the go-ahead to start planning next year’s Shop AsphodelNorwood trade fair at the community centre. CAO Joe van Koeverden asked for council’s permission to start working toward a second Victoria Day Saturday event during a report on the municipality’s economic advisory committee which was part of a “Phase 1” marketing

initiative that also included the release of a brochure promoting the township as a destination for families, entrepreneurs and seniors. The cost of both the brochure and the trade fair was recovered fully through sponsorships and advertising, van Koeverden noted. Shop Asphodel-Norwood attracted over 600 visitors with 25 booths inside the community centre and foodrelated displays in the Mil-

lennium Room. “It was very well-received,” van Koeverden said. “All the vendors I talked to were quite happy with the response they got.” He added that Celebrate Havelock drew 1,200 people to their event the week before and has been in the game for eight years.

News - Norwood - Township staff and Peterborough Economic Development will work together on a feasibility study that will report on the prospects of developing industrial-specific sites within the municipality. The initiative stems from an economic development advisory committee update report prepared for council by CAO Joe van Koeverden which suggested that the joint AsphodelNorwood-PED study focus on a 21-acre parcel of land on Industrial Drive and the possibility of buying the property and developing five-acre serviced lots at the site. Mr. van Koeverden explained to council that he had talked to PED staffers Jamey Coughlin and Lorne Kelsey about “what we need to do in this community to create more jobs.” “They suggested to having serviced industrial lots of about five acres would be the best thing to do to attract [ventures] of some sort to the community,” he said. “We

discussed if we were in position to create an industrial park at all.” From that conversation it was suggested a business plan or feasibility study be done. That focus was rejected by council as too narrow and restrictive. They also felt that a discussion about industrial site development should take place at the council level and not an economic advisory committee level. “Those kinds of discussions belong with council in terms of long-term planning for a community; they don’t belong at the economic development committee,” Councillor Mary Hay said. Hay wanted the feasibility study to look at all possible industrial sites within the township and not just Industrial Drive off County Road 45. “I’m uncomfortable talking about developing a property that isn’t ours,” she said. Mr. van Koeverden said two other unnamed sites have also been raised as possible industrial development locations.

“Do we take a look at that as far as economic development activity to create more jobs?” van Koeverden asked. “I have no problem if we work with PED to study and report to council on the feasibility for industrial development within the township,” Hay said. “It’s broad; it’s not a particular parcel or site. Let’s look around and find out what’s possible.” Deputy-mayor Joe Crowley thought an industrial park was a “good idea” but was against the concept of five-acre sites. “I think we should leave it open-end-

ed,” Crowley said. He said a prospective developer might want more than five acres. “Some people demand a lot more acreage than five,” Crowley said citing Peterborough’s Industrial Park and the expansive McCloskey’s production site in Otonabee-South Monaghan. The municipality should look at potential industrial sites in broader terms and “work hard in encouraging people to come to our municipality.” The township should be prepared to cater to the particular needs of an industrial developer, said Crowley.

Dear Editor, A certain level of sympathy might be given to Don and Teresa Iwacha (“Less government, not more” May 29, 2014). Their observation for need of vision, leadership and apparent lack of performance from elected officials would be their major “beefs.” I do NOT, however, get the impression to reduce government size would solve the deep seated economic problems haunting Ontario today. Globalization (in our case the passing of NAFTA by the Mulroney government having partly to do with it) spelled a major change in our economy, away from manufacturing and much more toward a service U.S. oriented economy

giving us less independence and power; unionized production here was discouraged and manufacturing moved off shore where the worker receives lesser pay and political control. While Canada has become a Tim Horton economy, the shareholder/investor (mostly the one per cent group), now reaps too much of the economic donut, the little guy being left with the tidbits. Not good for the rich and powerful to eat all that gooey cake! Call it an imbalanced economy that weakens the efficiency and working strength of an elected government no matter how big or small or right or left wing it may be. None of this is rocket science.

Folks like the Iwachas would do well to keep in mind politicians who listen more to corporations than they do to citizenry are much inclined to “promise anything” before elections. (Not the first time this!) Their hands are tied more than ever now, and privatization economics unfortunately cooks today’s donut batch—a Reagan era economic idea currently popular among the rich. The best thing we can do under this rather grim situation is to get out and vote and contact your local representative to show how fed up we are with the lump of economic cholesterol we have been dealt.

Dear Editor, What all those politicians who talk about jobs for Ontario seem to forget is the reason we are no longer the industrial power we once were, is not because of any action or lack of action by any of the Ontario governments, but rather, the negotiation of Free Trade with the U.S. by the Mulroney government. The auto industry, once the lynchpin of our economy has lost perhaps 50,000 good paying jobs in addition to the six to seven related spinoff jobs. This was due to the loss of the Auto Pact when so-called Free Trade came into effect. Also, because much of the industry in Ontario consisted of American branch plants, these companies took advantage of Free Trade to rationalize their man-

ufacturing by moving production to their U.S. plants that had excess capacity, resulting in the closure of a broad range of manufacturing plants over the years, including those that made steel, machine tools, agriculture implements, furniture, major appliances, textiles and so on. What Free Trade did was destroy good paying jobs and vastly increase corporate profits of Canadian companies, mostly service, financial and a little manufacturing, to heights never before seen in our history, while at the same time savaging wages and benefits not just for Ontario, but all Canadian workers. Unless and until we get back to fair trade agreements rather than free trade agreements nothing will change much. Gerry Michaud, Roslin

Egypt’s man of destiny – for a while

Editorial - To the vast surprise of absolutely nobody, Field Marshal Abdel Fatah al-Sisi won the Egyptian presidential election last week. Moreover, he won it with a majority that would pass for a resounding triumph in most countries. But it is a disarmingly modest majority for an Arab Man of Destiny. Not for Sisi the implausible margins of victory claimed by Men of Destiny in other Arab countries, like the 96.3 Gwynne Dyer per cent that Egypt’s last dictator, Hosni Mubarak, claimed in his first election 21 years ago, or the spectacular 100 per cent that Iraq’s Saddam Hussein allegedly got in his last election in 2002. No, Sisi just claimed 93.3 per cent of the votes, a number low enough that it might actually be true. Sisi’s real problem is that even with the media cowed and the full resources of the state behind him, only 46 per cent of eligible Egyptians turned out to vote. He had confidently predicted an 80 per cent turnout. As an aspiring dictator who overthrew the country’s first democratically elected president, Mohamed Morsi, only one year ago, Sisi needed a big turnout. At least 1,500 protesters have been shot dead in the streets, and a minimum of 16,000 political dissidents are in jail. Sisi has shut down a popular revolution and he needed to demonstrate massive public support for what he did. He didn’t get it. Towards the end of the scheduled two days of the election, the people around him panicked. The interim prime minister, Ibrahim Mahlab, let slip that barely 30 per cent had voted so far—and the regime abruptly announced that there would be a third day of voting. An unscheduled public holiday was declared, and non-voters were threatened with a large fine. In the end, Sisi’s officials claimed a 46 per cent turnout, although journalists reported that many polling booths were almost empty on the third day. But let’s be generous and assume that 40 per cent of eligible Egyptians did vote. If 93.3 per cent of those people truly did vote for Sisi, then he has the support of just over one-third of Egyptians. Other Arab dictators have ruled their countries for decades with no more popular support than that, but it will probably not sustain Sisi through the hard times that are coming. Too many Egyptians are struggling just to feed their families. Egypt’s economy is running on fumes, and there would not

even be enough bread for people to eat—Egypt is the world’s largest importer of wheat—if Sisi were not getting massive infusions of aid from Saudi Arabia and most of the smaller Gulf states, which are very happy that he is killing off the Egyptian revolution. But even the great wealth of the Gulf kingdoms cannot win Sisi more than a breathing space: all of them together have only about a third of Egypt’s population. And there is no good reason to believe the Egyptian army, which is now effectively in charge, has the skill to resolve the country’s grave economic problems. Indeed, its highest priority will be to protect its own massive business empire. Sisi talks about how Egyptians “must work, day and night, without rest” to restore the economy after three years of revolutionary chaos, and his budget plan calls for slashing energy subsidies by 22 per cent in one year. Austerity is not going to win him any thanks from Egypt’s poor, however, and his political honeymoon will not last long. What will happen after that can be predicted from the results of Egypt’s only fully free election two years ago. Mohamed Morsi and another Islamist candidate got a total of 42 per cent of the votes in the first round of that election, while the leftist candidate, Hamdeen Sabahi, got 21 per cent. (Morsi won in the second round, when Sabahi and two other candidates had dropped out.) We can safely presume that few Islamist supporters voted at all in last week’s election. It’s clear that most of Sabahi’s former supporters also abstained: he was the only candidate who dared to run against Sisi, but he only got 3 per cent this time. Islamists and leftists therefore make up the majority of the 55-60 per cent who did not vote for Sisi this time—and that is good news for him, because the two groups have very little in common. Those who did vote for Sisi were mostly people with no strong ideological convictions who were simply exhausted by the turmoil of the past three years. They voted for “stability”, and believed Sisi’s promise that he could deliver it. So as long as they go on believing that, a deeply divided opposition poses little threat to him. But most of the people who voted for Sisi thought that when he said “stability”, he really meant an improvement in their living standards, and it’s most unlikely that he can deliver that. When they lose faith in Sisi, the opposition will achieve critical mass, and it probably won’t take more than two years. The Egyptian revolution is not over yet.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Liberals simply ignore the debt crisis

Dear Editor, The province of Ontario is deeper in debt than any other jurisdiction in North America yet the Liberals’ major platform admits it will spend even more taxpayer dollars which will inevitably bankrupt the government coffers. Liberals scoff at Conservative leader Tim Hudak’s intention of producing thousands of new jobs, saying he will actually eliminate jobs, yet the Liberals are the party that has significantly reduced the job market with extreme business regulations and ridiculously high hydro rates. Hundreds of good businesses have decided to leave Ontario in order to survive. Although they are hesitant to admit, Premier Kathleen Wynne and her Liberal buddies have swung so far left, they are now even more extreme socialists than the NDP. Just remember when you go the polls to cast your ballot,

if this Liberal government was a family with annual income of $50,000, each of you would have $112,500 in credit card debt and would be adding $5,000 to the credit card bill every year. Does that sound like Wynne and her socialists know what they’re doing? Plagued with scandals that add up to billions of dollars the Liberals have stolen from the taxpayers, how can the presiding government have the basic gall to try to make you believe otherwise? The modus operandi is to continue to lie as they attempt to cling to power. Isn’t it about time to send these Liberals a strong message that you shouldn’t be rewarded for being basically dishonest for the past decade?

Singing the blues By Terry Bush

Editorial - It’s a dream come true for NHL commissioner Gary Bettman. The dust has settled and the Stanley Cup finals are under way with both coasts of the USA represented in the final showdown. Not only are both coasts highlighted but the country’s two premier cities will be showcased as well, New York City and Los Angeles. I’m sure Bettman’s pillow is soaked each and every night from the drool creeping out of the corners of his perma-smile. And the best part for Gary is of course there are none of those darn Canadian teams involved that might dissuade American viewers from tuning in to NBC. Bettman may even escape a few of the usual boos that rain down on him every year when he presents the cup. But then again, that has become a Stanley Cup tradition especially for the fans present who have some knowledge of the goings on in Bettman’s quest to Americanize the product. It will be a Stanley Cup final for the ages. There will be countless celebrities within camera range in both arenas wanting to be seen and possibly heard. Some may even know a little bit about hockey. But I’m a little bitter about the outcome myself. I was really hoping for a Chicago/Montreal finale but alas, it was not to be. I would have had a hard time picking a team to cheer for in that scenario anyway. I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for the Chicago Blackhawks and that’s also the team my wife Mare was cheering for, though she doesn’t pronounce the word Blackhawks the same way I do. I think that’s a woman thing. Two much emphasis on the “k” after the “c”. By cheering for, I mean occasionally asking if the Hawks were winning as she walked past the TV on her way to check her email. She’s pretty much lost interest since her man Jerome Iginla was eliminated when Boston bit the dust. Mare just loves Jerome, not for his hockey skills so much but because he has a nice smile and she thinks he’s a friendly guy. I liked the Hawks because I loved them as a kid in the 60s when Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita were at their zeniths and I was one card shy of a full set of Chicago hockey cards. I’d love to have them back along with my Beatles cards but both are sadly in the Stirling dump after someone decided to clean out the basement. I was also cheering for the Blackhawks because Belleville boy Andrew Shaw is on the squad and you’ve got to support your local talent especially a gamer like Shaw. Same deal with the Habs. Loved the way Dustin Tokarski stepped in and basically stood on his head to give the Canadiens a chance at the final after Carey Price was injured. And the fact that PK Subban used to play for the Belleville Bulls was certainly taken into consideration. But it wasn’t to be and even more disappointing than my teams being eliminated is the fact that two of my favourite anthem singers won’t be singing in the Stanley Cup final. Is there anyone who wasn’t inspired by Ginette Reno’s singing of our national anthem? Sure, most of it was in French and many of us have long since forgotten the words we learned in school but Ms. Reno’s no-nonsense approach was appreciated by the fans and players. No fist pumping, thumbs up, winks or any distractions, just an awesome performance followed by a couple of handshakes with players on the bench. I could swear Ginette flew her tanned self in from Florida each week for the occasion. In contrast, Rene Rancourt’s dye job and fist pumping just didn’t do it for me during the Bruins’ series. He must be an acquired taste. Same thing with the Rangers’ John Amirante. Not a great singer and not a great rug. He’s a New York tradition obviously and they’ll keep him around as long as he can still sing but The Big Apple is home to Broadway after all so it’s not as if there’s nobody with better chops waiting in the wings to take his place. The Chicago Blackhawks have one of the best anthem singers in the NHL in Jim Cornelison. When he gets going on the Star Spangled Banner, I always feel a strange compulsion to enlist in the U.S. Army for some reason and it’s not because a couple of veterans past and present are standing nearby. There’s something about the way he sings it full throttle that’s almost inspiring, not quite inspiring enough to make it to the final but it did take the Hawks to game 7 and then to overtime. On another note, has anyone else noticed that there always seems to be guns involved during the singing of the U.S. anthem? Just not quite sure what weapons have to do with a hockey game other than the fact that games are often referred to as battles. We don’t see that on a regular basis in Canada but then again, vive la différence. The closest we’ve come was seeing Lyndon Slewidge in his OPP uniform. Another great anthem singer but I could do without the wink and thumbs up silliness. Finish the song and smile at a job well done Lyndon. One of these decades, you might just make it to the finals too.

News - Hastings - Much more than the power of Oz brought the Emerald City to Hastings. The acclaimed Hastings Public School production of the Wizard of Oz succeeded because of a huge assist from a small army of parent and community volunteers who worked their magic backstage and front of house. “It absolutely helped the play happen and be possible,� HPS principal Sarah Rogers told The Independent during an informal volunteer appreciation tea last week following the school’s big talent show. Rogers directed and nurtured the play from its beginnings to its colourful one-week run and she says she is indebted to the volunteers who assisted with everything from props and lights to makeup, costumes and program design. “A lot of schools do not have nearly as many volunteers as there are at Hastings,� says Rogers. “In my previous school I had very few volunteers.�

Coming to a school where she can call upon scores of parents for help or names of people who could help with an event is deeply gratifying, says Rogers. “[When people] are gung ho to help me it really makes a difference in my life too. I appreciate it.� And what is most amazing, Rogers adds, is that many of the HPS volunteers are involved in multiple other activities around the village and beyond. “A lot of them are absolutely everywhere in the community.� Rogers says that students at HPS notice that and can be inspired by the work adult volunteers do around the school and the wider community. “Volunteers make such a difference in communities as a whole,� she said, whether it’s at a nursing home or a Scout group. “Within the school board itself we are trying to encourage the kids.� The 40 hours of mandatory volunteer time high school students must complete before graduation is a small way of reminding young adults that the extra things they can do with their lives has a positive impact on the world around them. The parent volunteers HPS students see around the school set good examples for them, says Rogers. “Our volunteers help provide our kids with more opportunities and activities.� HPS parent volunteers do everything from scribing during EQAO testing to planting flowers and chaperoning class trips. “The kids get to know the parent volunteers as well,� Rogers said. “They start to connect with other people in their community and they can go to them because they know them through the safe environment of the school. If outside the school there are issues they are comfortable enough approaching them as adults.� The school’s lovely front garden is a parent volunteer effort, Rogers points out. “That has made a huge difference in the presentation of the school.�

News - Campbellford - The annual advancement ceremony for the Guiding groups in Campbellford was held here last week with the Sparks, Guides, Pathfinders and Rangers and their leaders celebrating another exciting year. It was an emotional evening as family gathered to watch the ceremony and leaders congratulated the girls on achieving their goals. Third-year Girl Guide Hailey Snarr received the highest award a Guide can earn, the Lady Baden Powell Award which was presented by her leader Karen Carmichael. Earning this award involves completing the Guide Program as well as extra initiative in the areas of community service and volunteering, while learning about the life and work of World Chief Guide, Lady Olave Baden-Powell.

a variety of Guiding moments as part of the ceremony. First Campbellford Pathfinders Taylor Polich and Sydney Wade received their Canada Cord, the highest award a Pathfinder can earn. “Girls that received the Canada Cord earn it for completing the program areas in Pathfinders, as well as a community service component, leadership components and citizenship components. It is the highest honour award to these girls,” said Pathfinder leader Jessica Hudson. The Award is a pin that is worn to ceremonial occasions on a red ribbon around the neck. The pin itself may also be worn on the Pathfinder or Ranger Pin Tab. As well Tiana Barker, a Ranger, received the Chief Commissioner Silver Award. She has plans to become a leader when she turns 18 this summer and carry on the traditions of Guiding. As Rangers work to complete the Ranger Program, they may earn the Bronze, Silver, and Gold levels of the Chief Commissioner’s Award. Each award is a pin. “A fun little tidbit that shows ‘community mindedness’: Sarah Fields (Pathfinder leader) and I were both Guides with Vivian (Smallwood) as young girls, and part of Rangers with Ranger leader Karen Glenn,” said Hudson. “This just emphasizes the mission of Girl Guides, empowering young girls to make a difference in their community and to share in the sisterhood of guiding. We are also all volunteers,” she added. Interesting things the girls have done this year include celebrating Thinking Day on February 22. “Brownies/Guides completed Granada Twinning Challenge and Pathfinders attended Great Wolf Lodge, where they completed the National Service project called Operation Earth Action, and hit a unit record for cookie selling, 150 cases this year,” said Hudson. Brownies, Guides, Pathfinders and Rangers headed to Rally Day last weekend, to join Guiding groups from all over Ontario and Nunavut to celebrate and share in the sisterhood of guiding. Activities included national service projects for children in need, finding their inner “katniss” at archery activities, rock wall climbing, bucket drumming, dancing and more.

The 1st Havelock Scout leaders join Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Councillor Larry Ellis and Deputymayor Andy Sharpe in a photo during the group’s 100th anniversary potluck last week. In the photo are (front row, left to right) Larry Ellis, June Keating, Debbie Ottley, Alan Keating, Brooke Wrightly and Lorne Benjamin; in the back, left to right, are Terri Rourke, Julie Kimball, Kayla Hamilton and Joe McGowan.

Scouting’s founders would be pleased to know the group thrives 100 years later. “Scouting has gotten away from some of the original stuff but the connection with nature is still there and still important,” he says. “It would have been very different [100 years ago],” says Mrs. Keating. “It

was all boys and very strict with uniforms. It was probably a lot more outdoors and very structured.” Certificates marking the milestone were received from Premier Kathleen Wynne, MP Dean Del Mastro and HBM council.

along in February. “This is bigger,” said Mrs. Keating. The “progressive celebration” will include something around Canada Day. “It’s a community effort to support youth,” she says, applauding the sponsoring Lions Club, township council and the Royal Canadian Legion. “I’m happy to be a part of this,” her husband Alan said. “I started out as a parent-volunteer and figured I’d be only there for a year and I’m still doing it.” That was 23 years ago and it’s “still as fresh as it was then. “It does become a family affair. I see that in other towns,” Keating said. “Our success right now is that we’ve got parents with kids who want to get involved.” Scouting, he says, provides a “non-athletic and socially inclined” alternative to children of different age groups. “We have leaders who are willing to take the time to do stuff like that. I know in a lot of communities all people want to do is volunteer for sports.” Having the “good support” of the Lions, township and Legion also makes things possible. Where some Scout groups have church sponsorship the Havelock group is “more diversified” but, like other organizations, they are “shrinking in size. Which is to be expected.” Keating thinks Havelock

from St. Luke’s when they realized three groups within Kawartha Waterways would be celebrating 100th anniversaries within a short time period. It started in Lakefield and was carried to St. Luke’s in 2012, much like an Olympic torch. The distance to Havelock prevented a torch-like relay but the paddles were in attendance and passed from members and eventually from the group’s Lions sponsor to Scout leader Alan Keating. The paddles are symbolic because the 1st Lakefield Sea Scouts are one of the few sea scout groups in Canada and Peterborough is home to Brownsea Base which teaches watercraft skills to Kawartha Waterway members. “It is quite an achievement,” says Scout leader June Keating. “You look around and Scouting has started to diminish. We seem to be holding a healthy number so that’s good. We’ve got really good leaders.” “There are so many groups that should have made it to 100 but they’re not there anymore. There are a lot in Peterborough,” she noted. “You look back on the history of Peterborough and almost every church had a group. Now it’s few and far between.” Mrs. Keating is “proud to be part of this. “Hopefully we’ll carry on after we finish with it.” The group began their anniversary celebrations “really low-key” with a guitar sing-

SATURDAY MAY 4, 12:30 - 2:00 PM

In our continuing Buyer’s Market (more properties than buyers), homeowners will increase their chances of attracting serious Buyers by standing out from the competition when selling by: 1. Making sure that their home is in substantially better condition than similar homes in the same price range; 2. Positioning their home very competitively right from the beginning by setting the listing price very close to market value. Remember, the above factors can make the difference between a long and painful selling process, and a successful one.

Watch for more practical tips next week!

Adam Doherty leadership award and it has to be a student who models those qualities day in and day out,” she explained. The award is presented each year during Catholic Education Week. For Doherty it came as a complete surprise. “I didn’t know I had been nominated,” he said. “I was told about the award by my teacher, my principal [Virginia Marini] and my mother [Amy-Jo Doherty] who is a kindergarten teacher here,” he added with a grin. Humble about receiving the award he said, “I was lost for words basically when I was told I won.” He is very serious about his win. “I take it as a big responsibility,” he commented. He believes in standing up for what he believes. “I have dyslexia so I think it’s important to stand up for the kids with learning disabilities,” he said. When he’s not helping others he likes to participate in many of the school activities. I’m involved with the band and I do just about every sport but my favourite is the shot put,” he said. He takes is love of music home and has learned to play the guitar. “I used to play piano,” he added. He has already signed up for the mu-

sic program at Campbellford District High School which he will be attending this fall. He has also performed in school plays, the most recent being Annie Jr.

This summer he will be helping his grandfather on his farm but he also hopes to earn his Bronze medallion at the swimming pool in Campbellford.

thrilled to see younger visitors because “they appreciate what they do.” “They are very excited to see them.” MapleView currently has around 60 residents from a “wide variety” of backgrounds

“I would really like to thank the school principal Virginia Marini; special education teacher Peggy O’Connor; former principal Stephen Egan; my Grade 3-4 teacher Bill McGuinness, and Ashlea Fitzgerald, my Grade 8 teacher.” Last year’s recipient of this award was Liam Ingram who now attends CDHS.

MapleView applauds community volunteers News - Norwood - It was a time to say thanks to the scores of volunteers who help out at MapleView Retirement Centre in Norwood. Approximately 45 volunteers attended a special lunch last week where they were applauded and serenaded by the popular Kitchen Kuties. It “enriches their lives” to have volunteers visit and help with various activities, says MapleView activity co-ordinator Kim Wakeling. “We really appreciate everything they provide us.” Wakeling says they have volunteers from “all walks of life” and ages, some as young as ten and others who are generational peers of the residents. “A lot of the residents are familiar with the volunteers because they come from the community,” she adds. “They grew up in Norwood or surrounding communities and really got to know the residents. Some [residents] have known them since they were very young. It’s a very tight-knit community. They are very excited to see them.” Wakeling says the volunteers are a “huge asset” to her. “I’m just one activity co-ordinator and it makes my job so much easier when I have the help that I have,” she says. “A lot of the volunteers know what the residents like or don’t like and it makes my job a lot easier.” Volunteers help MapleView staff with trips, birthday parties and other big events and also provide one-on-one time with residents. Wakeling is particularly pleased to see young people volunteer at Mapleview. “We have a couple of young ladies and they are doing it purely as an enjoyment thing and that’s a good thing to see. It really reflects on the younger generation and what they are providing for an older generation. It’s nice to see the different mix of ages provide different levels of enjoyment for the residents.” Residents certainly like to see volunteers they have known in the community but Wakeling says they are equally

“I have also been thinking about getting my refer credentials,” he added with a grin. Doherty said he couldn’t have won the award without the help of his teachers. “I feel it’s an honour to get the award and I feel as if people here have helped me. The teachers including the principal have helped a lot,” he said.

and Wakeling says the retirement centre always welcomes volunteers. She would be happy to talk to anyone who might be interested in becoming a MapleView volunteer in whatever capacity they would like.

News - Campbellford - The Catholic Student Leadership Award is presented annually to a deserving student and this year Adam Doherty, a Grade 8 student at St. Mary Catholic Elementary School, is one of the recipients. “I always try to do random acts of kindness so to speak. Every time someone is feeling bad I try to cheer them up,” Doherty told The Trent Hills Independent. He also likes to “help around the house.” Doherty is one of 37 students to win this award given by the Peterborough Victoria Northumberland and Clarington Catholic District School Board, in recognition of student excellence. One student representative is selected from each elementary and secondary school each year. Each student receives a special medallion. Ashlea Fitzgerald who is teaching Grades 7/8 this year, nominated Doherty. “The student is nominated based on our Catholic Graduate Expectations,” she said. “So there’s a series of expectations that we go by that everyone teaches in the schools such as a collaborative contributor, caring family member, a responsible citizen, all of those things

Entertainment - Campbellford Westben began its 15th season by celebrating the many volunteers who make the festival happen year after year. A special ceremony was held Saturday at the Clock Tower Cultural Centre. Two new special awards were presented in memory of two key volunteers. Milton Jewell received an award in recognition of the contributions of his late wife Marion, and Gord Reid received the Ron Vogan award. “I was totally blindsided and delightfully so … I had no idea I was going to receive this,” Reid told the Trent Hills Independent. He has been a volunteer with Westben since it started in the late 1990s. “It’s very fulfilling when a show is completed … you just have a feeling of accomplishment plus you enjoy such incredible music. And the camaraderie, we have a lot of fun out there, we do a lot of work but we enjoy each other’s company and it’s always a lot of fun,” he added. “Ron was an amazing volunteer who co-ordinated all the lights and spent numerous hours in the Barn, many times by himself setting up lights, designing the shows and keeping things running,” said CoFounder and Marketing Director Donna Bennett. . “Ron passed away suddenly with cancer in 2012 and is greatly missed,” she added. “Reid, also an amazing volunteer worked closely with Ron and is key to Westben’s stage lighting and many other areas of production in Westben currently,” said Bennett. Awards were also presented to the following volunteers:
500 Hour Awards - Joan Filip, Adam Finley, Judy Kaufmann, Diane Menzies, Diane Reid, Norah Watson. 250 Hour Awards - Barb Cooper, Lance Cooper, Diana Ballard, Mollie Clarke, Bodil Jorgensen, Liana Palmer, Gord Rigby, Ken & Bobbe Robertson 100 Hour Awards - Delaney Cameron, MacKenzie Cameron, Nancy Coulter, Edna Findlay, Marie Glover, Terry Hodgins, Deborah Holt, Timma Holt, Pat Johnston, Rob Lawrie, Jane Lisson, Doris Meier, Grant McLean, Lorraine McLean Scott Moddle, Rosemarie Peikes, David Pollock, Michael Tumpane, Anne Westcott Volunteer Co-ordinator Marilyn Keene said, “I have been involved with Westben since its inception and have seen and often played a small part in so many wonderful events over the last 15 years. I have had the opportunity to work with and get to know literally hundreds of talented and interesting fellow volunteers who have shared a part of their lives with me and with our shared project.” “Our friend, Joy Finch, who lost her battle with cancer this year used to say that people told her Westben volunteers just sat around and enjoyed the shows. We certainly do that but there is so much more than just what you would witness when you attend one the shows,” said

Do you have an opinion you’d like to share? Write the editor tbush@metroland.com Keene. The Volunteer Committee includes Sandy Robertson, Anne Vogan, Karen MacGinnis, Lance Cooper, Barb Cooper and Anne Westcott. “The Westben Barn opens its doors June 6 to its 15th anniversary season and its sustainability

and ability to celebrate the joy of music and life is due in a large part to these wonderful volunteers,” said Co-Founder and Marketing Director Donna Bennett. “Volunteers are an integral and vital part of the Westben family,” Bennett added.

News - Norwood - Fourteen more trees have been planted at the Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre adding another lovely green accent to the “jewel in the crown” of the municipality. A short dedication ceremony was held last week lauding the tree’s donors and celebrating the names attached to many of the red oak, sugar maple and red maple trees now planted along the walking trail that encircles the Free to be Children Park adjacent to the community centre. Several of the trees were planted in memory of family loved ones continuing a tradition that stretches back to 2009 when the program began. Since 2009, 69 trees have been planted on the Norwood Fairgrounds and Community Centre. “We’ve got orders for next year already,” says Beautification Committee member Jennifer Holden. “We’re very happy with how it’s going. Our big problem is going to be finding places to plant them in the future.”

Holden says the committee figures there will be enough space for one more planting at the community centre. “But after that we don’t know.” The trees must be planted on municipal property not on private land, she added. Asphodel-Norwood Mayor Doug Pearcy called the community centre the “jewel in the crown” of the township and applauded the committee’s initiative in launching the tree planting program five years ago. Mayor Pearcy also thanked

all those who donated a tree. With a splashpad set to open July 1 and the skateboard park, playground and walking track the area will be an extremely busy place during Canada Day celebrations. “Whoever you planted a tree in memory of will be watching over the proceedings that day,” Pearcy said. “I absolutely thank you all for doing so much for the community.” In 2009, Holden says the committee wasn’t too sure how the program would be received but says they are “extremely happy” with the outcome. The trees are all healthy with only a few slightly damaged during the recent ice storm. “If a tree doesn’t survive we’ll replace it. We haven’t

had the situation where we’ve had a dozen or so damaged by a storm,” says Holden. The entranceway to the community centre where the first trees were planted has been gorgeously enhanced by their presence, she says. “You can really see how they’ve flourished. Even the ones planted a couple of years ago; the new growth coming on them is just wonderful to see. The driver who delivered the trees from Lindsay said how wonderful this whole facility is. He said there was nothing like it in Lindsay [and] couldn’t get over how wellmaintained it was and what we’re doing to improve it. “Now with the concerts in the park it’s even nicer to know the trees are going to be there.”

Spring Street project will give street “brand new” makeover couple of years; obviously the watermain is fragile and it will just get worse if it isn’t done.” “The sewers are fine so we’ll work around those,” he added. There will be new pavement, new gutters, new curbs, new sidewalks and new water pipes, van Koeverden said. “It will look like a brand new street.” The 65-year-old Spring Street water mains are cast iron and its sidewalks have been identified as a “trip hazard” by inspectors. A major break this past winter left area residents without water for some time while public works crews tackled the repair. That incident was a reminder of the urgent need for infrastructure upgrades along the street. With the expansion of St. Paul’s Catholic Elementary School and its busy residential make-up, Spring Street has been earmarked as needing watermain and road upgrades. The project targets Spring as well as Oak and Pine Streets and will include a new storm water system. G.D. Jewell Engineering Inc. is looking after the project design and they’ll tender the project. Mr. van Koeverden says the Ministry of Environment approval process “will be our

slowest thing” at around nine months. “That means it will take all winter to get the approvals,” he said. They hope construction can begin sometime late next spring. “It’s all up to the contractor and the engineers,” said van Koeverden. He concedes there’ll be some “inconveniences” for nearby residents during the project. “It’s great that they’re showing an interest and looking at the plans.” “It is a funded project so there are some project milestones associated with the funding,” added Dan Fencott, Jewell’s eastern regional manager. “The funding allows them to go until the end of next year. “We’re not going to put a specific timeframe on 2014 but the township has the ability to carry it over to next year. I think that’s what we’ll do,” Fencott said. “The watermains and the storm sewer definitely need to be replaced,” he said. Fencott couldn’t say how the contractors will approach the project. “Whoever gets the job will decide how they want to construct it. They know how they are most efficient in their opera- Festival founder David Rollins, right, selected a photo of a lilac bud by Norma Keith of Baltimore called “Bursting at the Seams” tions.” for the Founder’s Award.

News - Norwood - The shovels won’t be in the ground for a while but there’s an eagerness surrounding the much-anticipated $1,343,232 Spring Street construction project. “It’s our oldest piece of infrastructure in the village so it’s a big item to get done and fixed properly,” Asphodel-Norwood CAO Joe van Koeverden said during a public information session last week. The municipality received $1,208,908 from the provincial government’s Small Rural and Northern Municipal Infrastructure Capital Program (SRNMIF) covering 90 per cent of the project’s cost. The SRNMIF offers a maximum of 90 per cent funding for projects of up to $2 million. Asphodel-Norwood committed $132,000 in its 2014 budget for the Spring Street project with the hope of securing the provincial money. “In our asset management program we have put together this year fixing the problem takes a million dollars’ worth of problems out of the books and replaces it with an updated system,” van Koeverden told The Independent. “It’s really a great thing for us to have it done and repaired. We had two watermain breaks on that street in the last

PET of the WEEK! Meet Oliver Charles (Charlie)

Oliver Charles (Charlie) is one of four gorgeous orange Tabbies with ambercoloured eyes. Unlike his larger brother, Ozzy, this fella has a patch of snowy~white softness on his chest matched by his dipped~in~white paws. Oliver Charles would like us humans to believe that he’s a shy guy, however when given a good rub under the chin and around his cheeks he’s been known to purr like the best of ‘em. Certainly when left to play with his brothers, Oliver Charles holds his own with the rambunctious goings-on! Loves his fellow felines, he does. Oliver Charles was in a foster home with children, other cats and a dog. He is now in a foster home with other cats. foster homes needed Please don’t forget kitten season is here and we need loving foster homes so we can rescue some of the helpless ones still out there and find them loving forever homes. Without foster homes we are unable to rescue and the cats and kittens will have to be returned to an undeserved life outside without the love and care they should have. Barns, outbuildings needed We are also looking for barns, out buildings or very patient accepting homes for feral cats that

need to be relocated. They are spayed/neutered. We will trap them and bring to you. We do not charge an adoption fee but ask for a donation. Thank you for your consideration We have an adoption process which includes an application and contract. Our adoption fees are $75. for kittens and $50. for cats. which includes spay/neuter, first, vaccines, deworm and deflea. Thanks for supporting CCSNI which is an all volunteer organization.

That’s all I can hope for at the OFSAA meet,â€? she added. Herfst will be competing in the shot put event on Saturday.

Hastings FC takes brings Barca style to pitch By Bill Freeman

The Hastings FC U-10’s were wearing the new club colours and logo during their dominant season-opening win over Castleton #2 at Fowlds Millennium Park. The football club has patterned its colours, logo and style of play after the great FC Barcelona. Photo: Bill Freeman

Sports - Hastings - The swift elegance of Lionel Messi’s FC Barcelona has taken over Fowlds Millennium Park in Hastings. The Hastings soccer club has cast off its old Thunder Herons name and replaced it with the classic and traditional Hastings FC with uniform accents, sweater badge and style of play similar to the great Spanish football club led by the incomparable Argentinian Lionel Messi. “Since I’ve been involved in the club I’ve tried to emphasize that we play a short passing game,” Hastings FC president and Tri-County Soccer League president Graham Sanders told The Independent. “I’ve stressed with the coaches that when we simply kick the ball down the field we give up possession of the ball and then we have to go and get it again so why don’t we just keep control of the ball and work it up the field and try to do the passing thing.” Sanders said he tried that with the 2012 U-16 side and they had a “fabulous outcome” winning all their games. The quest to be like Barca not only reflects Sander’s own passion for the perennial Champion’s League superpower but the general desire of the club’s board to drop the Thunder Herons name and take on something that represents the traditional sport of football. They also wanted a new “attractive logo.” Hastings’ players wore red and blue a few years ago and Sanders was impressed with what he saw during the club’s first home games of the season last week. “Whether they be 18 or ten they look good in their outfits,” he said.

The Trent Hills Regional News published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!

“They’re in Barcelona colours so let’s try to play like Barcelona. It’s coming. It’s a good way to start the year.” Sanders says the Tri-County Soccer League has decided to

“retain the playing structure it has used in the recent past. “We continue to play 11-a-side for the Under 12 and older age groups. We have opted to adapt our mini-soccer fields closer

in line with the Ontario Soccer Association’s Long-Term Player Development dimensions.” Hastings FC will field ten teams, from U-6 to U-18, this season.

NDHS athletes stymied at regional finals with a time of 43.8. Norwood’s other 300-metre hurdler Gavin Woodburn placed seventeenth with a time of 51.8, improving on his 58.45 COSSA time. COSSA midget javelin champ Saarah Rivera placed thirteenth with a throw of 20.94 well off the 29.33 mark she nailed the week before in Belleville. Rivera’s COSSA throw would have been good enough to win the Eastern Regional event which was won by Brianne Bedard of St. Francis Xavier High School in Hammond with a throw of 27.92. The fourth and final qualifier for OFSAA, Chloe Wilson of Carleton Place, recorded a throw of 25.75 metres. Hayden Baptie topped his

Sports - Ottawa - There will be no athletes from Norwood District High School at this year’s OFSAA track and field championships. The Knights were shut out in their bid to qualify at last week’s Eastern Regional finals at the Terry Fox Athletic Centre in Ottawa with Colin Van Den Hurk turning in the team’s best effort with a tenth-place finish in the midget 300-metre hurdles. Van Den Hurk posted a speedy time at 49.2 but would have needed a sub-44 second time to crack the top four. Taking first was Kurtis Gardiner of Arnprior with a swift 43.4. COSSA champions Murdock Siegner of East Northumberland finished fourth

COSSA time of 17.64 seconds in the midget hurdles posting a time of 17.3 in his heat but failed to advance to the final. Ryland Clarke of Napanee took gold with a time of 14.7. Owen Wright placed twelfth in the junior high jump with a cleared height of 1.65 metres besting his fourth place COSSA jump of 1.60 metres. Justin McDermott of General Panet High School in Petawawa won the event with a 1.80 metre jump. Mike Yarema placed eleventh in the senior shot put with a throw of 11.80 metres, well short of his fourth place COSSA distance of 12.30 metres. COSSA silver medallist Jeff Radford of Moira took gold with a throw of 13.85 metres.

Vintage motorcycles descend on Shannonville

By Stephen Petrick

Sports - Shannonville - The sound of classic motorcycle engines revving echoed throughout Shannonville Motorsport Park’s sun-soaked stadium bleachers last weekend. Meanwhile, enthusiasts camped out in trailers and tents, brought out tool kits to fix their bikes, snapped photos and swapped stories, all in celebration of a unique hobby and style of racing. The three-day event, hosted by the Vintage Road Racing Association, brought out about 140 racers and dozens more spectators to the park located east of Belleville, off Highway 2. There were 22 different classes of bikes, explained Shannonville’s race director Chris Chapelle. Most of the motorcycles racing, he said, were models from 1989, or earlier. Generally, a bike has to be 25 years or older to be considered vintage. And while the racing was competitive, most racers, Chapelle said, were just there for a good time. The campsite seemed just as active as the track itself, with tonnes of bikers out and about, enjoying a perfect spring weekend and a gentle breeze. “It’s an interesting following because it’s just club racing for vintage bikes,” Chapelle said. “It’s pretty relaxed. They don’t take it too seriously. “It’s a hobby for them. They pick up an old bike and get in ready to go vintage racing.” Please see “Shannonville” on page B3

Entertainment – Belleville Do characters in Grimm’s fairy tales really ‘live happily ever after’? The musical comedy, Into the Woods, by Stephen Sondheim is the last production for this season by Belleville Theatre Guild. It premiers on May 29 and runs until June 14 at Pinnacle Playhouse in Belleville. Tickets cost $25 a piece. (Seniors $22, students $10) Into the Woods explores some of possibilities of what happens to fairy tale characters in the next chapter of their lives. Act 1, introduces fairy tale favourites Cinderella, Rapunzel, and their princes, Little Red Riding Hood, the Baker and his wife, Jack, the giant killer, and his mother; the wicked wolf and the ubiquitous scheming witch. In Act II, things start to get grimmer as those who got their heart’s desire in the first act discover that the quest was more exciting than the prize and those who were

wronged come back to seek their revenge, including the giant’s homicidal wife. The play is alternately hilarious and thought provoking. The play is directed by Steve Forrester with musical direction by David Farmer, and choreography by AmyLyn Van Londersele. Dave Henderson is the producer; Darren Cole, stage manager;. Dave Alexander, set design: Sean Scully. set construction and props; Beth Callwell, costumes and Donna Douglas, rehearsal pianist. Forrester said that although there are several veteran actors from the Theatre Guild Roster, the production is predominantly young actors and actresses who are still in school or in their twenties. Among the veterans are Al Zaback as the baker, Moira Nikander-Forrester as the baker’s wife, Nancy Garrod playing a variety of roles including, Cinderella’s mother, Red Riding Hood’s

Among the veteran young actors are Braelyn Guppy (Cinderella), Eric Lucas (Jack the Giant Killer) John Ross Parks, (Cinderella’s Prince Charming) and Katie Gordon (Rapunzel) and Alison Brant (the wicked witch) who are familiar faces on the Pinnacle stage. Newer youth performers include Cooper Gazley, Repunzel’s prince, Jaime Kristal Lott as Red Riding Hood. and the ugly step sisters, Cassandra Bateman and Danielle Dettinger. Three young teens, Kenzie McGuire, Natasha Mullens and Brayah Pickard play wood elves and set movers. Forrester describes Stephen Sondheim’s music as complicated but brilliant.” It has some of the wittiest lyrics I’ve ever heard.” Into the Woods has a special meaning for Forrester himself, who suffered serious injuries at the theatre during the winter when he fell off a ladder, he has struggled hard with his own personal quest to get back on his feet and mobile enough to take the responsibilities of directing the play. In fact, he has fared far better in his quest, than a number of characters in the play who don’t make it to the finale.

Two men pay a total of $4,000 for elk hunting offences suspension for making a false statement to a conservation officer. Court heard that on September 16, 2013, the opening day of the elk season, Ramsay and Carinci were part of a hunting party that had a licence to hunt cow elk. One of the members of their hunting party shot and killed a bull elk. When checked by Ministry of Natural Resources conservation officers, Ramsay, Carinci and other members R0012738810

Meyers farm demolished but Frank is holding on

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Frank Meyers is hanging on, despite his farm being demolished in front of his eyes. “I’m as good as can be,� he said, the day after demolition crews started knocking down his barns on May 28. “It’s hard to see the government destroying prime farmland,� he added. “There’s not enough food to go around.� He said Harper is blasting Putin for terrorism when he’s doing the same thing in his own country with pencil and paper “It’s bullying,� Frank added. “All I ever wanted was farmland.� Frank said a lot of people showed up at the site the day the crews started tearing down his buildings. Now there was

just one supporter, Daryl from Ottawa who saw it on Facebook. “I’m just here for Frank,â€? Daryl said. “I want to make sure he’s okay.â€? Meanwhile, military police parked across the tracks, making sure no one interfered with the demolition, which is making way for a Joint Task Force 2, an expansion to CFB Trenton. “I stood near the tracks and they were ready, with their hands on their guns,â€? Frank said. “They were ready for a ďŹ ght. They were going to shoot me!â€? Frank said it’s a shame they don’t recycle some of the material, the steel at least, from the barns. “It’s a waste,â€? he said. He added there are 3,000 bales of hay and straw in that barn that is no good now. They also stopped access to his 60 acres of corn that he couldn’t get off in

the fall because of the wet weather. Frank plans to stay at his home, across from his seized property, with his wife Marjorie, and he will keep farming on what he has left. “I have 30 acres of workable land,� he said. “And a shed.� He built the shed last fall for his tractor but he needs somewhere to store the rest of his farm equipment. Asked if he could use the promised $3.3 million from the government to build a new barn, he said he did not have

the money. “I don’t know where it is,â€? he said. “It was returned on February 4, 2014. I don’t have it.â€? Frank has rented land all over that he can continue to farm, with help from his son. But he has a lot of anger inside against the government for destroying his barns and taking his land. “I spent all my life here,â€? he said. “And my father before me. I was raised here. We have had this land since 1798 ‌ my forefathers given this property

forever.â€? He said he hated to watch them tear down his barn, knowing there were barn swallows nesting in there. “That’s an endangered species!“ he said. He added there are four creeks running through the property and they were probably going to get polluted now. “They don’t care for the pickerel ďŹ shing, they don’t care about the barn swallows,â€? he said. “They just want to show the country they’ve got power.â€?

All the typical brands of motorcycles were present: Yamahas, Hondas and Kawasakis. However, the event was graced with the presence of a few interesting and rare motorcycles. Chapelle said there were two “Rudgesâ€? at the event on Saturday. A Rudge is a type of motorcycle that’s often black and low to the ground. They were generally made in the 1920s and 1930s and, thus today, are an extremely rare ďŹ nd. “They’re extremely valuable,â€? said Chapelle. Most of the motorcycles racing, he said, were models from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Despite their age, they can still be patched up to race quite well. In fact, he said, some might argue that their parts are more suitable for racing than today’s newer models, which are made from lighter parts. “Some of these bikes are older,

heavier and solidly put together,â€? he said. The event started with qualifying races Friday and Saturday. By the time the ďŹ nal heats took place Sunday, a few hundred people had packed the grandstand. The racers and fans came from across the region, Chapelle said, and included a large contingent from Quebec and small groups from New York State and other pockets of Ontario. More are expected this weekend when the track hosts the 50th annual Mopar Canadian Superbike Championships, from Friday to Sunday. About 100 motorcyclists from across the country are expected to descend on the track to race in a number of different classes. The event will start with practice runs Friday and Saturday morning, leading to qualifying runs Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. By Sunday afternoon, the motorcyclists will be competing for trophies.

Victims of sexual assault seeking help earlier than older generation By John Campbell

News - Campbellford About 70 per cent of the people who sought out help at the Kawartha Sexual Assault Centre last year were survivors of sexual assaults in their childhood.

Now adults, they were “trying to make their way in the world and having a hard time [doing] that,” said Karen Basciano, the centre’s public education and special events co-ordinator. People who have been sex-

ually assaulted are seeking support earlier these days, which is “more helpful” to their recovery “than waiting 20 or 30 years when the impacts are so embedded in their lives,” said Suzie Compeau, a counsellor. Basciano and Compeau were in town May 31 hosting an outdoor Dessert Fest, the fourth and final event in a series of fund raisers the centre held during Sexual Assault Prevention Month throughout the four counties it serves. One of every two women and one of every five men “will be sexually assaulted at some point,” Basciano said. The assaults can range from inappropriate touching to penetration. The public has the misconception that most sexual assaults are committed by strangers whose victims are attacked while they are in vulnerable situations, such as “walking alone at night,” Compeau said. But the majority of cases, 85 to 90 per cent, involve someone they know, she said, including family members, coaches, church figures or Scout leaders, for example. More adults are stepping forward with tales of sexual abuse years after the fact because of efforts to educate the public that victims were not at fault for what took place, in order to bring the problem out in the open, she said. “We see a lot of older clients, in their 50s and 60s.”

They kept silent about the abuse they suffered while a child because it wasn’t talked about back then “what happened in the home or within families,” Compeau said. “Sex education wasn’t a really big thing,” but today, “our society has become more sexualized,” which has created its own set of problems, including easy access to pornography over the Internet to children as young as eight years old, and the rise of sexting, in which young people send risque photos of themselves or others and “think nothing of it,” Compeau said. “They watch Miley Cyrus half-naked on videos,” Basciano said. “The media seems to make sexuality or sexual assault acceptable.” The result is a generation “desensitized” to sexual assaults, Compeau added. “It’s become very normalized [to look upon] this rape culture [as being] cool.” Basciano said she’s had “numerous calls from high schools” asking her to come talk to the students because “they talk about rape like it’s game.” Their lingo includes such phrases as “I raped that test,” she said. She’s been with the centre 14 years. “You almost feel like a hamster in a wheel sometimes, you’re just keeping up” with the problems caused by changes taking place in society that are not all

for the better, she said. The centre’s mission is “to support those effected by sexual violence and to impact social change within our community.” It currently has a caseload of about 70 individuals receiving individual counselling. Services include a 24-hour

Strut for Strays event should be doggone good time By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - A big fundraising event in Belleville this Saturday should provide some tailwagging fun. Fixed Fur Life is holding its ninth annual Strut for Strays at Zwicks Island Park, from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. The event raises funds for the registered charity so it can pay for spaying and neutering of dogs and cats. Fixed Fur Life also helps lowincome families pay for large, unexpected vet bills. Since the organization formed about ten years ago, it has helped co-ordinate the spaying and neutering of more than 16,000 animals in the Belleville/Quinte

West region, said founder Darlene Quinsey. “We keep growing,” she said. Strut for Strays is the organization’s biggest fund raiser of the year. Last year the event raised $40,000 and Quinsey hopes to top that mark this year. The event starts at 9:30 a.m. with a walk along the riverfront trail. The walkers will have gathered pledges to participate. After the walk, Zwicks Island will be alive with activity. The Ultimate Air Dogs of Canada will be there to put on a show. There will also be more than 70 vendors selling products. Dog owners are encouraged to bring their pets, as veterinarians

will be on hand to offer checks and microchipping services. There will also be a pet costume and an ice cream eating contest for dogs. While Strut for Strays is a fun, family oriented event, the funds it raises will go toward a serious problem. Quinsey said that controlling dog and cat population is always a struggle, especially for cats which can give birth to large litters several times a year. She founded Fixed Fur Life after touring shelters in other parts of Ontario and learning that there were few programs available to help pet owners pay for spaying and neutering. She says about 80 per cent of the

cats her organization has fixed have been female. This will hopefully, in time, lead to fewer stray cats in the area. She believes the work is already making a difference, given that she has not received as many calls to have cats fixed this year than she has in recent years. Despite this, there’s still a high demand for the organization’s services, she said. And there will never be a surplus of money for all the spaying and neutering costs needed to serve a community. “If we made five million dollars tomorrow, there’d still be that need,” she said.

Brussels’ “Ommegang Festival” takes place next month

Stilt fighters in the show.

I attended last year’s Ommegang Festival, and I witnessed the spectacular procession and magnificent show from my very own reserved seat in Grand Place’s grandstand (especially erected for this event), and I soon discovered that this event brings to life, at least for a brief time, an intriguing, bygone historical era. It was fascinating to see all the incredible costumes—and I watched, spellbound, as the crossbowmen entered the square, along with the flag-bearers and the medieval representatives of the court, guilds, guards, and soldiers. Many of the costumed participants arrived by foot, while others came on horseback—and then the royal guests (including Charles V) arrived by horse and carriage— and took their seats in the viewing stand. They then watched the spectacle along with the rest of us, which included a great deal of music and frivolity and a mesmerizing display of flag waving, horsemanship, medieval games (including fencers and stilt fighters), dancing, flame throwing, and fireworks. It was quite the show and went on for about three hours. Along with the magnificence of the overall spectacle itself, I was particularly impressed by the young stilt fighters, who fought with one another during the games to try to be the last stilt fighter standing! The cobblestones were rather wet (as it had rained) and, therefore, slippery, but these courageous participants fought bravely on and received a great ovation from the appreciative crowd. There’s a cost to get one of the reserved seats in the

Lifestyles - The “Ommegang Festival” will be celebrated in Brussels, Belgium, from July 1 until 3 this summer. This annual colourful event, now part of the “Carolus V Festival,” is a re-enactment of the medieval celebration that honoured the coming of Charles V to Brussels in 1549. The main objectives of the original festival were to welcome Charles V and to show off, in a way, the grandeur and prosperity of the country at that time, and this tradition has been continued throughout the centuries. Today’s Ommegang Festival offers a kind of overview of Belgium’s culture, arts, and history. It’s quite a spectacle, with over a thousand 16th century costumed participants in a lavish parade that begins in Grand Sablon and ends up at Grand Place, followed by an elaborate display of pageantry that’s held right in this renowned square. Victor Hugo once described Brussels’ Grand Place as “the most beautiful square in Europe,” so it’s definitely a very appropriate setting for this special event. This square is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it contains a variety of styles. The Town Hall (Hotel de Ville) is a Gothic masterpiece dating from the early 15th century, and its spire is topped by the Archangel St. Michael, the Patron Saint of Brussels. The Brussels City Museum, devoted to the history of Brussels, is also located on the square (in the King’s House on Grand Place), and it’s also well worth a visit to learn more about the history of both this city and this festival. I even found a Entering Coudenberg Palace, the former Palace of Brussels (now underground). nice restaurant at Grand Place that was appropriately named “Brasserie de l’Ommegang.”

These costumed participants are ready for the show to begin.

grandstand (from 37.50 euro to 77.50 euro), but anyone can stand along the parade route and watch it for free. Also, all are able to go to a free medieval village that’s set up in Place du Grand Sablon during this festival, to watch the ongoing tournament, including knights in combat on both foot and horse. One of the groups of crossbowmen that partake in the annual Ommegang Festival is the Saint Georges Crossbowmen of Brussels, and I learned more about this particular organization by visiting this club’s guildhall. It’s tucked away behind Place Royale, on the Impasse du Borgendael, and its cellar is filled with memorabilia and its shooting ranges. After all, this particular crossbow guild has been serving the city of Brussels since 1381, and weekly traditional crossbow shooting practices are still held here weekly. I discovered even more information about this particular festival by visiting the museum housed in Halle Gate, which was once a city gate, for it now contains works of art, masks and costumes connected to the Ommegang Festival. Yet another important connection with this festival is the former residence of Charles V in Brussels, Coudenburg Palace, located by Place Royale, and I actually visited the underground remains of this site and even dined down there. Our 16th century menu, especially designed to complement the Ommegang Festival, included stuffed apples with mincemeat, along with a great variety of other appropriate dishes concocted by the Centre for Historical Gastronomy. I simply strolled from table to table, in the underground archaeological digs, and sampled the foods that were offered while exploring the ruins themselves. Some historians believe the Ommegang Festival actually began as a religious ritual back in the 14th century, but it has celebrated the arrival of Emperor Charles V since 1549, and it’s still attracting tourists to Brussels today!

Family tree research unearths murder buried in the past

By Sue Dickens

Dan Buchanan, of Brighton, a computer consultant and genealogist, kept the members of the Trent Hills Probus Club spellbound as he told his tale of notorious murderer Dr. William Henry King, who, as he discovered, is a cousin who lived in the mid 1850s on the family farm north of Codrington where he grew up.

News - Campbellford - Researching his family tree, a local genealogist discovered a cousin who made front page news with a tale of intrigue and murder in the late 1850s. “The only person ever executed in Northumberland County was a cousin of mine … not only is he in my family tree but he lived on the family farm north of Codrington where I grew up.” Those are the words of Dan Buchanan of Brighton, who brought the facts of his discovery together for a presentation to the Trent Hills Probus Club. A computer consultant and self-proclaimed “geek” who enjoys research, his interest in genealogy is well documented online on his web site and information of his “notorious” murderous cousin can be found there. “I have the family trees of most of the families around Brighton from the earliest settlement and all of these stories have come out of that,” he explained. “You can pick your friends but not your relatives,” he told the audience as he began a one-hour PowerPoint show with a storyline of the events that led up to a public hanging of Dr. William Henry King, convicted of murdering his wife Sarah Ann Lawson, in 1859. “The story I uncovered is about the brutal murder of an innocent young woman,” he said as he provided details of the dastardly deed of long ago that he found buried in archival records. It was a story of how King studied for a degree from a homeopathic medical college and how he used his knowl-

trip that his mother-in-law decided to stop by his house and check the pockets of a coat he had left behind. She “found a likeness” [photograph] of Melinda there.” Suspicious of all that had happened leading up to Lawson’s death, her family eventually was able to get an autopsy done and the truth that Sarah had been poisoned with arsenic was made known. A jury of 12 men convicted Dr. King. “At the hanging 10,000 people crowded around to watch,” said storyteller Buchanan.

News - Quinte West - New cameras installed in OPP cruisers will be able to detect suspended drivers. “All the officers are trained on this new technology,” said Staff Sergeant Dave Tovell at the Police Services Board. There will be an Automated Licence Plate Recognition Program (ALPR) camera installed on the front and back of the cruiser. The scanned licence plates go into a software program that checks for anything wrong, such as a non-validated tag, suspended driver or unqualified driver. It sets off an alarm when the

OPP drives by the vehicle. The close up on the licence plate is verified with Ministry of Transportation of Ontario (MTO) and the driver is pulled over. “It’s a valuable tool,” Tovell said. He noted the camera can read up to two plates a second. The Quinte West detachment currently has one vehicle equipped with the cameras, added this past month. It will share the technology with the Prince Edward County OPP and Centre Hastings OPP detachments. “We are the host detachment,” Tovell added. “We are one of the first police de-

partments to have this on the road.” The OPP has added 27 ALPR equipped vehicles to its existing fleet. The OPP are the first police service in Ontario and one of the first in Canada to target suspended drivers with this program. “It will get people off the streets,” Tovell said. “These people should not be driving. It’s a great tool. Very impressive.” Dick Button asked if it could read a licence if the paint is peeling off. Tovell said it is impressive even with different angles how accurate it is.

The tale of the infamous Dr. King reappeared in the Cobourg Star in the 1970s and in the Brighton Independent in 1994. Buchanan is considering writing a book about the tale. For more information go to: <www.treesbydan.com/p35. htm#i1351>. The Trent Hills Probus Club meets the second Wednesday of each month at 9:30 a.m. at St. John’s United Church.

edge to give doses of arsenic to his pregnant wife, later adding opium and chloroform to the deadly mix. Flirtatious by nature, Dr. King’s fated trip to the gallows was sealed when he met “Melinda,” a friend of his wife’s. “She was beautiful, well educated, social and outgoing … the contrast between Melinda and Sarah was stark,” said Buchanan as he unravelled the mystery of the crime. Keeping his wife isolated from her family, it was only when Dr. King went away on a business

Will history repeat itself?

By Diane Sherman

News - Madoc - The Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre for Holocaust Studies is hoping they can “empower people to raise their voices and take action against hate to make the world a better place.” To fulfill that purpose, the Wiesenthal Centre (FSWC) invested in an innovative mobile “Tolerance Education Centre,” a multi-media theatre on wheels, able to bring educational programs to schools and communities beyond Toronto. The Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board has included the program as part of their history course. The big white tour bus boldly displays the title, Tour for Humanity, with large faces from diverse cultures emblazoned

on the sides, a vehicle meant to draw attention, seating 30 people a showing. The tour has been to Loyalist and Quinte secondary schools since it took to the road in 2013, and presented to community leaders, educators, and front-line workers on topics of diversity, democracy, responsibility and Canadian civic rights. Wednesday, May 13, it arrived at Centre Hastings Secondary School where class groups of Grade 11 and 12 students took turns viewing the 45- minute presentation facilitated by Laura Dantsis of the FSWC, and Sherri Browning, department head for Canadian and World Studies at CHSS. Browning says CHSS has a strong connection with the centre.

“Four years ago we partnered with FSWC. We can take courses and made a visit to the Toronto centre.” Browning says she took an intensive two-day program at the Los Angeles centre. Students are scheduled to attend the Toronto centre again September 23, Freedom Day, when they will hear Wab Kinew, aboriginal rights activist, rapper, media star and panelist for CBC’s Canada Reads choice awards. Gold medal hockey winner Meaghan Mikkelson, and Travis Price, co-founder of Pink Shirt Day (anti-hate movement) will also speak from their perspectives. The program, Dantsis explained, began through benefactors in support of Simon Wiesenthal’s movement to edu-

(Above and right) FSWC tour facilitator Laura Dantsis explained Canada is not exempt from crimes against humanity, making reference to First Nations and Japanese Canadians throughout history, the fight for gay rights and the current trend of cyber-bullying. Photo: Diane Sherman

Students sat quietly during the presentation, listening to sordid, historic, details of decisions made by Fathers of Confederation, commercial developers, war departments, religious factions and governing bodies across Canada. Response to questions was made gingerly on the sensitive topic. It was a time for reflection. Students across Canada, in Grades 11 and 12, may apply for an educational scholarship from FSWC designed to recognize those “who have demonstrated strong commitment to further Wiesenthal’s legacy of promoting tolerance, social justice and human rights.” For further information contact FSWC at <www.fswc.ca> or phone 416-864-9735.

Laura Dantsis introduced CHSS students to the history of Simon Wiesenthal, and the establishment of the Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Centre which now provides a mobile education centre for schools and communities outside the GTA. Photo: Diane Sherman

News - The Belleville Association of the Deaf (B.A.D.) will be holding a fund raising event Saturday June 7th at the Metro store on North Front St. in Belleville. Washing cars and selling off slightly used items at a yard sale will be the focus for the day, with more to come in the near future! The goal this time around is to up the ante and raise $1,500! B.A.D. is working toward establishing a Belleville centre for the deaf, with the same focus as many other cultural centres in the area enjoy - a common meeting place where people of the same language and customs can get together. A lot more work will be needed to reach the ambitious goal, as the long term plans for this project will run around the $300,000 mark. If you would like to learn more about the deaf community, check out our website at www.bellevilleassociationofthedeaf.org. ASL classes (American Sign Language) are routinely available through the Canadian Hearing Society, with an office at the Bayview Mall in Belleville. Loyalist College routinely offers classes as well. Anyone wishing to help make this happen can volunteer or simply make a donation. For more information about the future Belleville Deaf Centre – contact Sarah Colbeck (BDC chairperson) at bellevilledeafcentre2014@gmail. com

cate about the slaughter of 11 million people under Hitler’s Nazi regime, six million of those killed were Jews. Wiesenthal was a survivor of the concentration camps. “Though the centre was started to educate people on the realities of the Holocaust, there are many cases of mass slaughter and cultural genocide. Most people don’t know Canada played a part. It’s not often given attention.” Scheduled for the day was “The Canadian Experience,” a slide show focusing on historical events, such as the history of Aboriginal Residential schools and treatment of Japanese Canadians during World War II. It also addresses the timely topic of cyber-bullying.

The Good Earth: Plant a row

Lifestyles - Each year, I resubmit the following article to try and encourage you to help out. I hope, someday, that the need for such a column will no longer exist. Unfortunately, the pressure to feed our friends and neighbours in the community continues to grow. This year’s growing season is off to a bit of a slower start as soil temperatures have just reached good values. This means a lot of you have recently finished or will soon start your veggie patch. Gentle Reader, I grew up on a farm. I was never hungry unless some youthful exuberance necessitated heading off to bed without supper. In my life, I can’t remember going without food and I can’t imagine what that would be like. We live in one of the most bounteous countries on this good earth and people, our neighbours, know what hunger is. That’s not right. A cynic might say that, truth be told, our flower gardens are merely affectations of the well-to-do. If this

seems harsh to read, especially in a gardening column, consider this: those of us who can spend time gardening have a.) stewardship of our own bit of this good earth; b.) the monetary resources to purchase the plants and tools needed; c.) the luxury of the time to do it; and d.) a lifestyle that allows for the time to even contemplate such a venture unencumbered by the daily need to merely provide for our families. 
By the standards of our society, we have worked hard to be able to do this and there should be no negative connotations assumed for doing so.
However, there is a certain fragility about our comfort that needs to be acknowledged.
We know too well that there are folks in our country, in our own communities, who do not enjoy such luxury. These people are not indigent bums who leach off of us. The majority are hard working, proud, valuable members of our community who are astonished to find themselves in such need. All it

takes is a factory closure or temporary shutdown to jeopardise many a family’s finances.

Visit your local food bank, ask any social service agency about child poverty, talk to the Sally Ann about the desperate need some of our neighbours have to deal with every day. Ask them specifically about food. There is no excuse that allows people to go hungry in our land of plenty.

There is a way to affect some tangible good with our gardens. It is so simple, grow some extra vegetables or fruits for donation. Plant a Row Grow a Row is a movement that began in the United States and has spread across North America. Folks are asked to set aside a patch of their own land specifically for other people. The produce is brought to a central collection place such as the food bank or a community run greenhouse or garden plots. Depending on the nature of the crop and the immediate need, the food is distributed where it can do the most good. In fact, by inquiring before

The Good Earth:

you plant in the spring, you can sow the veggies most needed even if it is broccoli or cauliflower (or the dreaded beet). 

In Canada, the “seed� organisation is the Composting Council of Canada. They have all of the promotional material, planning guidelines and an amazing network of connections that you can access: <www.compost.org>. Anyone can initiate such a program but it takes the community to bring it to fruition.

Here’s the beauty of it. All of the qualities that impart joy, contentment and relaxation to you through gardening will be realised with your participation in this campaign. You lose nothing and gain everything. Better yet, this will not detract or take away from any other initiatives; it will only augment them. You don’t actually have to be a part of any official organisation. You can do this on your own and, for those who are not fond of the spotlight, relatively anonymously. My suggestion is that you call your local food bank and ask

Dan Clost

them what you can grow, you might be surprised to learn that there is more to a food bank grocery list than root crops. As well, you may find yourself with a bounteous harvest of food with a short shelf life such as strawberries. Help out if you can, Gentle Reader. We’re all sustained by the same good earth; we just need to fine tune the distribution.

New date with a surprise venue for Westben annual fund raiser

Photo: Sue Dickens

Entertainment - Warkworth Imagine a hilltop garden where musicians are performing and artists are painting, where appetizers and refreshments are being served and the backdrop

is a million-dollar view. Stop imagining ‌ it’s all very real. It’s the setting of a major fund raiser for Westben Arts Festival Theatre, an event that is being given new life

Artisans and alpacas come together

News - Batawa - Local crafters and artisans arrive once more in Batawa during the annual Craft Fusion Sale & Showcase, scheduled for Saturday, June 7, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Batawa Community Centre. New this year, live alpacas will be visiting; they’re sure to keep the kids entertained while mom and dad browse the wide selection of items for sale. A live demonstration of alpaca fleece skirting will be offered for people to learn about what raw fleece looks like when it comes off the animals, and the process of transforming it into a finished product. Local alpaca fleece products will be on hand for sale. This is a “handmade� craft sale, which ensures that each item available will be unique and locally made. Everything from handmade jewellery to embroidery, woodwork to painted art will be showcased. Even the digital arts will be showcased by a vendor who turns your photographs, videos or digital images into digital film. A bake table and lunch counter will also be on hand for hungry patrons. Living Primal of Belleville will also be in attendance with their “Primal Crunch� granola—a grain-free, gluten-free product that is produced and sold in Quinte Region as a healthy alternative to traditional breakfast cereal. “We love supporting local artisans in Batawa and the larger community,� says Judi Clark, Community Development Co-ordinator of the Batawa Development Corporation, which organizes the twiceyearly event. “There is a wide variety of crafts for sale this year from throughout the area, from Belleville to Colborne, and Trenton to Havelock. This event makes buying locally owned very easy.� Every visitor gets a passport that guides them through each vendor. After visiting each booth, they are eligible to win a gift basket that features an item from each vendor. Kids particularly like to receive a passport and go on their own treasure hunt for stamps at each booth. Batawa is a town steeped in history, and

with a bright future. It remembers how Canada welcomed the Bata Shoe Factory and its first workers in 1939. Many of those first factory employees, and Batawa residents, came to this country from

Czechoslovakia to start a new life in Canada. The majority became Canadian citizens and continued to improve their home by building a school, bank, and clearing the way for the Batawa Ski Club. Today,

the shoe factory is undergoing a transformation into condominiums as part of the Batawa Development Corporation’s trailblazing work in sustainable community development.

performers. As well, Tina Moore, chef and owner of On the Side Gourmet will be creating appetizers. Members of Westben’s Teen Chorus will be serving. There are 150 tickets available and they are going fast. They can be purchased at the Westben box office, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., now located in the recently renovated Clock Tower Cultural Centre,

36 Front Street South in Campbellford. “It’s so wonderful to have that building just buzzing with arts and culture right in the heart of Campbellford,� said Bennett. The “Here Comes the Sun Gala� fund raiser will take place on the summer solstice, June 21 from 2 to 4:30 p.m. A silent auction will also be held.

it was always fingers crossed we hope this is going to do it. Now this way we will know and we can pace ourselves,â€? Graham explained. The location is a secret, revealed to ticket holders only when they buy their $65 (tax included) ticket. A supporter of Westben both as a business owner (with his partner Wayne Sabados) and personally, Graham expects the spring event will be a sellout. “We want it to be a surprise ‌ people won’t be disappointed,â€? Graham said as he offered this writer a tour of the garden as a preview of the venue. Donna Bennett, Westben co-founder and advancement and marketing director, agrees. “The venue is a great way to be close to an artist as well as the musicians. It will be very intimate because you will be wandering the gardens and they will be right there,â€? she said. They want the performers to be a surprise too but did offer some information as “a teaserâ€? to the special afternoon.

with a change of venue and a change, moving from the traditional fall date to the spring. “Personally I’ve always had this thing about gardens and music and how beautiful they can be together,â€? said Neil Graham, vice-chair of the Westben board who is heading up the fund-raising committee this year. It was at his suggestion that the fall fund raiser of seasons past be moved to the start of the summer’s performances, an idea that gained momentum quickly. “It’s something I had been thinking about, because as much as the fall fund raiser is a great way to finish off the season, I think it’s great to get people at the beginning of the festival season and get them excited about it,â€? Graham told the Trent Hills Independent. “And spring is such a lovely time of year when you can get people excited about the summer performances,â€? he added. There is another benefit to hosting the fund raiser in the spring. “In terms of fund raising, waiting until the end of the season to see how we are going to do financially, because that’s when we have our biggest event ‌ well there is a budget for fund raising and so

Mixed Doubles combines song, dance and comedy

Debbie Collins and Dean Hollin rehearse for upcoming performances of Mixed Doubles, which returns to the Stirling Festival Theatre next Thursday with some of entertainment’s most memorable duos. By Richard Turtle

Entertainment - Stirling - Debbie Collins and Dean Hollin have been bringing their acting talents to the Stirling Festival Theatre stage since shortly after the doors reopened, and the duo have returned to revive a show that was first performed here in 2001. Mixed Doubles, explains Hollin, is a tribute to some of entertainment’s most iconic duos and duets and is a blend of stage and screen history, music and comedy, with heavy emphasis on the comedy. “It was actually 13 years ago we started working on the show,” Hollin says, adding it grew out of their performances in the 2000 production of Swing, which featured, among other numbers, the pair’s rendition of You Has Jazz. There was a definite stage

chemistry between the pair, the actors say, and the show’s director, Caroline Smith, was one of many who took notice. “After that, Caroline said, ‘Let’s figure out something for you to do,’” Hollins says. “The idea was to look at the world’s greatest duos … and take a vaudeville approach.” So audiences can expect to see Fred and Ginger, Donnie and Marie, Archie and Edith, Sonny and Cher, Lucy and Ethel and a host of others. The show features familiar songs and comedy routines from the past that, he says, will undoubtedly appeal to all generations. There is even a brief appearance from Adam and Eve. And there is plenty of theatre magic as well, Hollin says, with the show centred around a giant trunk containing a seemingly endless supply of props and

costumes. And while the bulk of the material originated decades ago, it remains timeless and accessible to audiences today. So the inclusion of Abbot and Costello’s Who’s on First, Hollin says, was a no-brainer. And to bring the show back to Stirling where it first started, the performers say, is a treat. But there have been some script changes since the show was first staged and plenty of material was left by the wayside in development. Collins admits there was a lot to choose from when creating the show, and deciding what to leave out was just as difficult as deciding what to include. The original production, Hollin says, featured a scene originally involving Lucy announcing her pregnancy to Ricky but that was later replaced by the outrageous chocolate factory scene where Lucy and best friend Ethel struggle to keep up with an assembly line of desserts. Eventually, too, that scene was axed primarily because of the technical and logistical difficulties encountered during live performances, and there was a hole to fill. But Ethel and Lucy couldn’t be ignored, Hollin and Collins say, so another memorable scene has been adapted for the show. Exactly which one, they aren’t saying, but they are promising laughs. “You’ll have to come and see for yourself,” Hollin says. Following their two weeks in Stirling, Collins and Hollin will be destined for Orillia where the play is scheduled to run for five more weeks through June and July. Mixed Doubles opened last night in Stirling, with matinee and evening performances today (Thursday) returning

next week from June 12 to 14. Tickets Theatre box office or by calling 613are available at the Stirling Festival 395-2100.

Music and comedy are at the core of Mixed Doubles, featuring Dean Hollin and Debbie Collins. The show, which was first performed at the Stirling Festival Theatre in 2001, returned this week for a two-week run.

ParaSport Games a huge success in Northumberland

By John Campbell

Sports - Brighton - From start to finish, the 2014 Ontario ParaSport Games held across Northumberland County last weekend proved a winning combination for all concerned: organizers, athletes and volunteers. “It’s been from all reports a successful weekend,” Northumberland’s Director of Economic Development and Tourism Dan Borowec said Sunday morning, while the handcycling race was in progress. “The weather has been on our side, attendance at the various events has been pretty good … [and the county received] really, really good, positive comments from the athletes about Northumberland,” he said. “It’s been a great event.” About 300 of them showed up to take part in four national training camps or to vie for medals in one of the eight parasport competitions: handcycling, wheelchair basketball, wheelchair rugby, amputee golf, blind golf, sledge hockey, para-equestrian, and boccia. “It’s been well worth doing,” Borowec said of the county’s efforts to host the games, which started taking shape two years ago and involved the training of 250 volunteers for the three-day event. The games entrants, with varying degrees of disabilities ranging from blindness to loss of use of limbs, gained public recognition for their athleticism and competitiveness, and the county, in turn, raised its profile among them, Borowec said.

Our ability to eat and chew different types of food is dependent on a whole system of events that breaks down food into pieces that we can swallow. It involves much more than just our teeth. One of the most important aspects of our chewing system is our jaw joint, more specifically the temporomandibular joint. For simplicity sake, let’s refer to this joint as the TM joint. When people experience problems with their TM joint, the condition is known as temporomandibular dysfunction or TMD. Here are some of the signs and symptoms of TMD: 1. Clicking sounds from joint during opening and closing

2. Pain during opening or closing or while eating 3. Locking of jaw joint

4. Grinding or clenching habits

5. Limited opening of the mouth 6. Headaches 7. Pain in the shoulder and back To determine whether you have TMD and what types of treatment would be appropriate for you, it is important that you see your dentist for a thorough examination of your jaw joint. Your dentist can also take various radiographs (x-rays) and examine your occlusion or bite, in order to help determine the cause of your TMD. Once a diagnosis of TMD has been established, treatment can begin. Here are some treatment options for patients with TMD: 1. Oral appliance therapy (oral orthotics) 2. Bite adjustment or alteration 3. Medications 4. Surgery Because TMD can be such a debilitating condition that affects so many aspects of daily life especially eating and sleeping, it is important that you visit your dentist to determine if you have TMD and to find out what treatment options are appropriate for you.

Officials with the national camps—sitting volleyball, parasoccer, paracycling and paratriathalon—“started talking to us” about holding their camps here each year “because of the facilities and the reception they received,” he said. “Our next step is, having established relationships with some of the heads of the various parasport organizations, to start that dialogue and see what we can do on an ongoing basis.” The handcycling race was held in Brighton Sunday morning with the start and finish line outside the front entrance of East Northumberland Secondary School. The course out into the countryside was slightly more than ten kilometres long and racers went around it two or three times depending on their category. The time trials were held a day earlier at Colborne.

Pull for Kids event should be a busload of fun

By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - Why on Earth would anyone want to pull a 13-tonne object? Well, to raise money for asthma research, to support The Lung Association and the kids it helps, and to have a busload of good fun, that’s why. Participants and supporters for the

upcoming Pull for Kids event gathered at Montana’s last Tuesday for a captain’s rally. The rally was a chance for teams to meet and mingle and ask questions, leading up to the event on Saturday, June 14. The event takes place in the parking lot of Best Buy, at 202 Bell Boulevard. Registration begins at 9:30 a.m. and the opening ceremonies start at 10:45 a.m. The pulls begin at 11 a.m. and should continue up to the end of the finals at around 1:30 p.m. It’s a fun, but not exactly easy event. The Pull for Kids matches teams against each other to see who can pull a large coach bus 100 feet in the least amount of time. Teams may consist of eight men or 12 women. Co-ed teams consist of ten people. So what’s the

secret to completing such a demanding challenge? “Ignore the pain, just go with everything you got,” said Shawn Waite, a member of the three-time champion Property Guys team. Waite, was at the captain’s rally Tuesday, because he and his teammates have signed up for an attempt to defend their title. But winning the event isn’t the most important thing, he said. “It’s mainly for the fun and to support the kids,” he said, when asked why his team keeps coming out; this will be the Property Guys team’s fifth time in the competition. “It’s a great day and we love pulling around a 13-tonne bus.” Lola McMurter, a special events co-ordinator for the Hastings-Prince Edward chapter of The Lung Association, said this marks the tenth year the event will be held in Belleville. Many other Lung Association chapters have stopped holding the event, but this one has continued thanks to the support it has received here. The event has raised $195,000 over the last nine years and organizers hope to top $10,000 this year. They also hope this year’s event will bring out a few dads, because it’s Father’s Day weekend.

Although the event is titled Pull for Kids, it’s also very much an event for adults, McMurter noted. While many people associate asthma as a breathing condition that affects children, one in ten adults over age 40 suffer from asthma, she said. However, it often goes undetected. “Most people put it off as something else, when in fact it’s asthma.” Nonetheless, research and support for asthma sufferers is needed, especially children who, generally, do not have the opportunity to participate in sports, if their asthma is not treated. “Experts say if asthma is controlled they can participate in sports,” said McMurter. “They don’t have to sit on the sidelines.” Several teams had representatives at the captain’s rally Tuesday, but there’s still time for new teams to register. They can do so by visiting <www. on.lung.ca> or contacting McMurter at 613-969-0323 or <lmcmurter@ on.lung.ca>.

It is all part of their ongoing educational crime prevention program in the communities of Trent Hills. The trio had also been to Hastings. “The good news is 95 per cent of the vehicles have been locked,” said Vickers. Photo: Sue Dickens

SARTY: H. Ruth (nee Hood) Passed away peacefully on Saturday, May 31st after a long and happy life at the age of 95. Born in New Glasgow, N. S. in 1918 to Gladys (Reed) Hood and Thomas Lindsay Hood, she was raised in Nova Scotia, but spent the last 60 years in Ontario in the Trenton Brighton area. Ruth was, in her early years, active in the Women's Guild and in later years in Community Care. Ruth was predeceased by her husband of 66 years, Rodney Alvin Sarty and by her brothers Kenneth, Harold and Charles Hood. Ruth is survived by her daughters Florence Crandall, Grace Best, Phyllis Maxwell, Iris (Pat) Gibbs, Lois Tracey, and Deborah Sarty. Ruth also leaves behind 9 grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren and 2 great, great grandchildren, as well as her brother John(Jack) Hood and her sister Phyllis Stevens. Ruth was known for her lively sense of humour and zest for life, for her generosity and devotion to family. She was a good wife and mother and valued neighbour, someone who deeply touched all who knew her. The world was a better place with Ruth in it and her passing leaves a hole that will be hard to fill. Ruth will be sadly missed by all her friends in Brighton and Trenton, but especially missed by her family, but who are comforted to know that she is already busy in heaven keeping the angels laughing. As per Ruth's wishes cremation has already taken place. At the request of family, there will be no visitation and a private family funeral will be held at a later date. In lieu of cards or flowers, donations can be made to the Alzheimer society or the charity of your choice. Arrangements in care of the Brighton Funeral Home. www.rushnellfamilyservices.com CL449961

Hicks, George Morton Peacefully in Cobourg, Ontario on May 15, 2014. Born in Toronto on June 21, 1921, beloved son of the late Louisa & David John Hicks, he was the oldest of seven children, the late Cecil, David, Bill, Helen and Fred, and survived by sister Eileen of Calgary. Dear husband of the late Hazel Gertrude (nee Hunt), loving father of Allan Hicks & Diane Fagan, Grandfather of Adam Fagan & Ashley Fagan (Garth Robichaud), and adored great Grandpa of Hayley Lin (2 ½) and Peyton Diane (5 months). “Number One” Father In Law to Allan Fagan. George joined The Imperial Life as a member of the Printing Unit after graduation from Danforth Technical School. In 1940, he enlisted in the R.C.N.V.R., where, in the next 5 years, he would see plenty of action. George’s first ship was the Royal Navy cruiser Voltaire on convoy duty. Subsequently, he served on the corvettes Pictou, Calgary and Alberni and finally on the frigate Charlottetown. While on the Alberni he was in on the invasion of North Africa. George was lucky, in that he just got off ships in time, since three of the five he served on were eventually sunk or damaged by enemy action. George returned to The Imperial Life in 1945 when the war ended, rejoining the Printing Unit, where he ultimately was appointed Printing and Purchasing Manager. Over the years, George enjoyed his summers with the family at the cottage in Brighton, Ontario, and winters with Hazel in Punta Gorda, Florida. His later years were spent in Cobourg, Ontario. He spent many an afternoon playing some intense cribbage matches with Jimmy Baker, where he ultimately won... one way or another. Many thanks to the staff at Legion Village, Cobourg, Ontario, Northumberland Hills Hospital staff, and Dr. Kirk Haunts. The family is asking that donations be made in George’s memory to the Canadian Diabetes Association. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Arrangements in care of the Brighton Funeral Home. www.rushnellfamilyservices.com CL449962

Javafest finale thrills (Right) Cameron Pederson and Megan Wilson perform during Norwood District High School’s final Javafest of the year. Eleven performers, including both the guitar class and guitar club, took the stage before a full house. (Far right) Jackson Lean, the son of Norwood District High School guitar class teacher Jason Lean, became the youngest performer to ever grace the stage at the school’s regular Javafest concerts. Jackson sat in with the NDHS guitar club during their three-song performance.

“One summer day, in 2011, friends Jenn K, Lori and Jen P sat around in the backyard, watching their boys all playing, talking about their Relay for Life team for 2012. But that team was never meant to be. In April 2012, Lori’s life was turned upside down when she found out that she had leukemia. Lori never gave up the fight, but on May 19th 2013, her body did.

Jenn Kilsdonk, Lori Cormier and Jen Peacock

“Now, its our turn to not give up. Last year, a couple weeks before Relay, Jenn & I threw together a team in her memory and raised over $1600. This year, our goal is to double that!!”
