Council offers $1,000 reward to put an end to graffiti By John Campbell
What it lacked in looks Jhislain Malletteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boat made up in buoyancy.

News - Campbellford - The re-emergence of grafďŹ ti in Campbellford has Mayor Hector Macmillan talking tough about what needs to be done to curtail it. The ďŹ rst step is to ďŹ nd out whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsible and he persuaded council to ante up a $1,000 reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) who defaced several businesses on Front Street North overnight May 26. Northumberland OPP are already looking for witnesses who can assist them with their investigation of a report that two â&#x20AC;&#x153;suspicious personsâ&#x20AC;? were seen in the area. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Campbellford detachment at 705-653-3300 or toll-free 1-888-310-1122, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, to remain anonymous and not have to appear in court (there is a cash reward of $2,000 for eligible tipsters). Macmillan proposed an additional ďŹ nancial incentive be offered to loosen tongues, the same as he and a former council member, Dean Peters, did in 2010 when grafďŹ ti was proving to be a problem. The reward was never claimed but convictions were obtained that led to offenders winding up on the â&#x20AC;&#x153;mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chain gangâ&#x20AC;? where they had to perform community service as their punishment. The work included cleaning up grafďŹ ti using scrapers, wire brushes and chemicals, and painting over where necessary. Being â&#x20AC;&#x153;exposed in front of their peers â&#x20AC;Ś [was] quite an embarrassmentâ&#x20AC;? and proved effective as a deterrent, Macmillan said.

Nappan Island subdivision proposal raises concerns By John Campbell
News - Trent Hills - People living on or near Nappan Island aren’t happy with the prospect of a 70-lot subdivision being built there that would increase its population by up to 150 people. Nine of them strode to the microphone June 2 to argue against the proposal by an Ontario numbered company, with origins in Israel, to create a huge neighbourhood of one-acre lots. Gerard Grimm, a seasonal resident for 31 years, was the first to speak out against Gerard Grimm, a long-time seasonal resident on the proposal, saying it would triple the Nappan Island, raised several issues when the pub- island’s population, “substantially affect lic was invited to comment on a subdivision that’s the environment,” increase traffic and noise on the island and on the water, and been proposed for the island. Photo: John Campbell diminish the quality of life of people
who live there now. “Everything’s fine, there are no problems on the island right now,” he said. The current residents “want to enjoy their properties and not live in a subdivision that we’ve tried to avoid” by moving out of Toronto. His sentiments were shared by others who voiced their concerns at the meeting that was held to receive comment and to invite questions on an Official Plan amendment that’s required for the project to proceed. The proponent’s consultant, planner Bob Clark, said approximately half of the property’s 315 acres is considered environmentally significant, which he has proposed be protected “in perpetuity”

along with the shoreline through “designated land trusts.” Three locations for public water access will be provided for kayaking, canoeing, “that sort of thing,” Clark said. “It’s not the intention to have large docking facilities.” A small convenience-type store is planned for near the bridge that connects the island to the mainland to meet “the day-to-day needs” of residents as well as provide a gateway for the trail system and “recreational opportunities.” Studies carried out to date concluded the access road is “adequate to support” the island’s future development and there is a “sufficient supply” of quality water in the north part that can be tapped with wells. In the “lowyielding area” along Puff Ball Inn Road, the plan is for a privately operated communal system to be constructed to treat and distribute water drawn from the river, Clark said. “We are looking at early retirement as the principal market for this type of development but that wouldn’t preclude families,” he said. The homes would be built by contractors. * localEchoing what Grimm had to say, Joan McCulloch, * whose family has farmed on the 12th Line since the 1830s, said the proposed

amendment “is not just a minor deviation from [the Official Plan] but a really big one.” Her concerns included the loss of water, as many of her neighbours’ wells have gone dry periodically over the last ten years, “and with the way climate change is happening, this is a serious consideration.” Increasing traffic on the road “really changes” the residents’ way of life and there is risk that sewage from septic systems will filter into the Trent River and contaminate what is “a treasure for all of the province.” Other residents spoke about runoff from the development, the impact on wildlife, and the loss of trees during construction. Clark said Lower Trent Conservation was consulted in putting together the proposal but it has yet to provide “official comments” in response. Mayor Hector Macmillan said population is increasing around the world and “Trent Hills isn’t going to be any exception to that.” Playing devil’s advocate, he told the residents that “what’s being proposed is exactly what a lot of you already have.” To expect vacant land to remain undeveloped forever “is an unreasonable” expectation. “One of the things I’ve learned [is that] nothing stays the same forever,” he said. Macmillan said no council members at this point are “prepared to say they’re for or against the application” as more information is needed. “This is a ways from a decision,” he said, and the public can still submit comments to the planning department. The studies that were done are available for viewing on the municipality’s website. Director of planning Jim Peters said staff will put together an information package in consultation with the developer that answers questions raised by the public and council.

The latest acts of vandalism are “very poor imitations of gang-like symbols,” he said. “They’re not only ridiculous, they certainly don’t instill any fear in my mind.” Macmillan urged council to act immediately, to make culprits worry they could be betrayed by their friends. “The last thing I want to see happen is this graffiti thing become another trend [and] escalates any worse than it already is,” he said. “It needs to be dealt with right away.” Macmillan said it would give him “the greatest of pleasure” to see the person responsible for the vandalism “ratted out” by a friend for the reward. The last time, “we actually had people give us information [because they] were so pleased we were interested in keeping our downtowns clean of this type of activity.” Why it has returned now could be because the vandals aren’t aware what happened before or “they have forgotten about it,” he said later. “It’s time to send that message again.”

Messing about in boats … cardboard boats that is By John Campbell
News - Campbellford - The challenge was simple enough: build a cardboard boat capable of crossing the width of the Trent Canal and back, without sinking or tipping over. It proved more of a challenge than some had anticipated as not every craft built by the Grade 12 Campbellford District High School students managed to complete the short trip. It’s an end-of-year assignment CDHS teacher Scott Thibeau has handed out often, to test his students’ ability to design and construct a boat, making the requisite calculations. The assignment included an in-class presentation and a direct sales pitch to the teacher. Most of the ten boats “were pretty good,” Thibeau said, but “obviously the one [by Rowan Moran] was extremely well done.” It skimmed across the surface of the canal.
Connor Petherick, Katie Pye and Rachel Spencer showed good teamwork.
Rowan Moran sped across the water in his sleek craft.

Beehive celebrates 25 years of providing licensed day care By John Campbell
News - Campbellford - Brenda Battman, administrator at Beehive Daycare, has “seen a lot of changes” take place in the 25 years she has worked at the only licensed day care in Trent Hills. “At the time you don’t think [they’re] for the good but generally most of them have been,” she said. They include the introduction of new regulations, full-day Kindergarten and a “learn through play” curriculum for child-care centres, and the establishment of a college for early child educators (ECEs). Full-day Kindergarten “had a very big impact,” Battman said. “When it first rolled out here in Campbellford we did have to do some layoffs”–two staff were let go–while others had their hours “cut a fair bit.” Now, the room designated for Kindergarten students sits empty
during the school day, but some of those children are looked after before and after classes. “Right now we’re doing quite well,” Battman said, but there is capacity to accommodate more in each of the age groups: toddlers, pre-schoolers, Kindergarten and school-age; each group has its own room. Beehive is licensed for 56 children; it averaged 43 in May. Numbers tail off in the winter but pick up in the spring when parents of young children who will begin school in the fall begin thinking they “need to start getting them out socially.” The new curriculum is intended to “build on whatever their interests are … in all areas of development,” Battman said. “They just think they’re playing but little do they know that we have a plan behind that,” she adds with a laugh.
All ECEs must register with the college; the provincial government wants them to be seen more as professionals “and not just babysitters,” Battman said. There’s also “a continuous learning plan for us” that’s currently selfgoverned but will become mandatory, with “a certain amount of criteria we would have to meet yearly,” Battman said. Beehive, which celebrated its 25th anniversary last Saturday with cake and tours, was born when a group of citizens formed an ad hoc committee to find a site for a day care after the two that had been operating in town closed. The late Hector Macmillan Sr., who was then mayor, stepped in to help by purchasing the convent adjacent St. Mary’s School. “He held it for us until all the red
tape and paperwork had been done to secure it for the daycare,” with funding provided by the province, Battman said. What he did was “extremely” important, because “here we are 25 years later and still going strong,” she said. “It was a service the community needed and [he] took a big chance … waiting for the ministry to purchase it from him.” Beehive works with a budget of about $400,000, with roughly $125,000 of that coming from the province through Northumberland County. The rest of the money it requires is raised through child-care fees. Additional funding is received through grants, including those provided by the CampbellfordSeymour Community Foundation in recent years for student help during the summer, and one-time donations,
such as the $3,500 Dart Cup gave for the purchase of equipment and supplies. Beehive is looking for volunteers to serve on its board, which is now down to four members. “We struggle to keep board members,” Battman said. One, however, Jeanne Ann Maxwell, a teacher at Hillcrest Public School, has served 14 years. Premier Kathleen Wynne recently announced a dollar an hour increase for registered early childhood educators who work in child care to narrow the wage gap between them and those who work in full-day Kindergarten; the entry level wage is $16 an hour. At least one-third of the wages paid at Beehive is covered by the province. It employs six full-time and two parttime ECEs, as well as a cook.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor, So we are enduring an election campaign expected to continue for another five or six months. Huge amounts of money will be spent telling us how untrustworthy the other candidates are, most of it at taxpayers’ expense, and most not counted in the election spending limits. He with the most gold has a distinct advantage. Along with the “unfair elections act” designed to keep much of the riff raff away from the voting booths (since they tend to not vote for the Conservatives anyway), this is shaping up to be the worst example of how democracy is supposed to work in Canada.
The longest election campaign
The prime minister has opted for debates in friendly territory, stopping short of demanding it be held in the Fraser Institute. This would be akin to Mulcair suggesting they be held in the Broadbent Institute. The PM has ignored parliament when making major announcements, he appears to feel more at home in the corporate world when declaring another Action Plan even if it has not yet made it through the house: “My word is your command.” In this riding Mr. Kramp already has a campaign office with election signs posted, and will be certain to keep those taxpayer funded flyers coming with inane slogans collecting voter data for
the boys in the back room to play with. We can expect the robo calls to follow along. Canada will continue its “bombs are us” mission somewhere, Iraq, Syria, Libya perhaps Yemen. Each smart bomb dropped sends another $100,000 of tax money to the arms dealers. Being at war is expected to bring the patriotic population behind the government, voting them back in. Canada has hooked up its war chariots to the USA whose game plan changes day to day. Islamic militant groups are moved from the bad guys column to the good guys side depending on who their main target is each day. Our good
friends, Saudi Arabia, are heading for a beheading record this year looking for a few extra executioners; around 90 villains have been dispatched so far for foul crimes such as insulting the king or driving while female etc. Canada knows whom its friends are, selling 15 billion in arms to Saudi. Business is business after all; can’t let human rights get in the way of profit. The most decorated American soldier General Smedley Butler served 33 years and four months in the U.S. army, said this: “War is a racket; most American soldiers died fighting foes who posed no threat to the United States. Our soldiers died for secret agendas of which they
knew nothing. Capitalists hid their selfinterests behind the flag, and our boys died for the one per cent’s bottom line.” The general spent most of his career overthrowing governments in South America and the Caribbean, making sure their replacements were attuned to U.S. interests. Many have finally broken free of the American yoke, or at least loosened its hold. There will be more millions of tax dollars tossed at Canadians before the election, the age-old concept of buying votes with our own money; seems like the rabbit just keeps going and going. Paul Whittaker RR#1, Gilmour.
Voters beware of change for the sake of change Dear Editor, Change for the sake of change is an asinine concept. Change should happen only after considerable thought and most importantly fully understanding the repercussions of change. As things start to heat up for the October federal election voters must get beyond personalities and focus on performance records.
Take for example Canada’s position on the world stage where Canada is the envy of the world being the only country in the G7 with a balanced budget. Canada is a participant in the effort to thwart a very dangerous jihadist organization by standing with our allies to defeat ISIL not a mere bystander willing only to ship a few supplies to the Middle East. These are but two of many facts that support
Canada’s global position achieved by the Conservative Government under the leadership of Stephen Harper. Either of the opposition parties will most certainly derail Canada’s global position purely because of political ideology particularly as it relates to money. Yes folks it’s all about the money. As we know the “big three” political parties are Conservatives who are about
ec
ue
With all of this in mind then do you really want change putting Canada at risk of losing global position, reverting to huge deficits, ending up with less money in your pocket? Voters Beware! Do you want the country to be in ruin like our Liberal governed province is? A Liberal is a Liberal, spend, spend, spend and we’ll worry about it later. As far as NDP is concerned all I have to say is remember Bob Rae and the NDP in Ontario a few years back. Wow people wanted change and look what they got. Only time will tell if there is voter regret in Alberta (my guess it will happen very soon). So I say one more time change for the sake of change is asinine. As Elmer Fudd says, “Be afwaid, be vewy, vewy afwaid”! A very concerned voter, SD Smith, Belleville

lower taxes, limited government, fiscal responsibility (spend money only when they know where it’s coming from) and people are capable of running their own lives where Liberals more readily raise taxes, are pro bigger government (we know best how to run your lives), implement programs first and worry about where the money is coming from next. Finally the NDP are mostly concerned with Canada’s social (note not fiscal) safety net, generally favour higher tax rates, have strong ties to unions (who really runs the Priz NDP?) and true to es it’s socialist roots takes “rob from Peter to pay Paul” to the extreme.

OPINION
Greece: The never-ending crisis Editorial - “The Greek government would be well-advised to act quickly– for the Greek banks, it is five minutes to midnight,” said Andreas Dombret, an executive board member of the German central bank, last weekend. And everybody whose memory extends back a few years Gwynne Dyer goes: “That again? Somebody has been saying that every three months or so since 2010. Why should we believe it this time?” The answer is that you probably shouldn’t. The ability of the European Union to dodge the issue and kick the can down the road another few months is unparalleled. But it’s the wrong question. The right one is: why is this crisis still going on five years after it began? Normally, when a country spends itself into near-bankruptcy like Greece did, the whole cycle of crisis, default (or a tough International Monetary Fund bail-out), and recovery takes much less time than that. Whereas there’s still no end in sight for Greece, although its economy has shrunk by a quarter since 2010. But then, Greece is not a normal country. It’s a member of the European Union. When an independent country runs out of money to pay its debts and cannot borrow any more, it has normally has two options. One is to make a deal with the IMF: in return for IMF loans to tide it over, the government promises to restructure the economy (stop subsidising favoured groups and businesses), balance the budget (collect more taxes and cut spending) and, above all, devalue the currency. Greece has done all of that–except that it cannot devalue its currency, because it does not control it. It is locked into membership of the pan-European currency, the euro, which means that its costs stay high and foreign investment doesn’t flow in as it would after a devaluation. There is another route out of the trap: default. If the government cannot possibly pay back all its debts, just repudiate them. You’ll be locked out of the international markets for some years, but you can only borrow at an exorbitant interest rate already, so what have you lost? So long as the government can still raise enough in taxes to cover its own domestic spending commitments, it’s still in business. And after some years, you offer to pay all the creditors you stiffed

ten cents on the dollar, they take the deal because something is better than nothing, and you can start borrowing internationally again. A default is not necessarily a disaster. Greece has defaulted seven times before in its history, and almost every default was accompanied by a devaluation that put the economy on the road to recovery. But it has not defaulted this time, because that would almost certainly mean giving up the euro, which Greeks see as proof that they are a serious member of the mainstream European community. Greece should never have been allowed to join the euro in the first place, but the Greek government concealed the scale of its debts and the European Union turned a blind eye to them. Then subsequent Greek governments, equally corrupt and irresponsible, exploited their euro membership to borrow a great deal more. European banks, especially German and French ones, recklessly ignored the risk in lending to a country that was so obviously living beyond its means, because they reckoned that the central banks would bail Greece out rather than let a member of the eurozone default. There’s plenty of blame to go around, and the debt-fuelled binge went on for years, until the crash of 2008 brought the party to an end. Greece’s debt now amounts to 175 per cent of Gross Domestic Product. No other developed country has ever reached that level of debt in peacetime without eventually defaulting. But the EU goes on feeding Greece just enough money to prevent a default–and 90 per cent of that money goes straight back to German, French and other European banks in debt repayments. There is no way that Greece can ever repay its debts. Either its creditors cancel at least half its debt, or it must eventually default. Anything else is simply stretching Greece’s agony out. Indeed the Greek economy is already so badly damaged that there is some question as to whether the government could now raise enough income from domestic sources to maintain essential services after a default. The Greeks have suffered a great deal of hardship already to stay in the euro, and they seem prepared to suffer some more. The European Union is prepared to cut them enough slack to keep them from defaulting, because its members fear the future of the euro itself if it becomes clear that countries can actually leave. However, the EU will not make enough concessions to put Greece on the road to recovery. So this unbearable status quo will continue for a while–and eventually the Greeks will say “enough.” But it will still be five minutes to midnight for some months, and quite possibly even into next year.

I’m a fan of the CFL’s Michael Sam By Stephen Petrick Editorial - The start of the Canadian Football League season is upon us and while I’ve struggled to take a strong interest in the league since the demise of my once-beloved Ottawa Rough Riders, I’m looking forward to this year’s campaign. I know here in Ontario it’s taboo to say you love the CFL, but anyone who gives three-down football a chance knows it’s higher scoring and moves at a quicker pace than American football. And, as a recent event has shown, it’s still more inclusive than its American counterpart, the NFL. A few weeks ago the Montreal Alouettes made headlines by signing Michael Sam, who will become the first known openly gay player in professional football and one of the first in all of North American men’s professional team sports. (The NBA’s Jason Collins played part of the 2013-2014 season after revealing his sexuality in a Sports Illustrated article, but he was at the tail end of his career at the time.) At a press conference to announce the signing last month, Sam said he didn’t think he should be compared to Jackie Robinson, but the link is obviously there. Robinson is famous for breaking baseball’s colour barrier, when he became the first modern African American man to play in Major League Baseball. Before debuting with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947, he spent a year playing for the Dodgers’ minor-league affiliate, the Montreal Royals. Montreal fans embraced Robinson, allowing him to transition to the big leagues and eventually become an important figure in the civil rights movement and the symbol of a changing America. Likewise, Sam is an important person to an entire demographic of people and if he has a successful career, hopefully more people will be inclined to break down stereotypes and rid themselves of homophobia. I’m sure some people are asking why such a big deal is being made of the signing of just another import player. As most Americans in the CFL, Sam’s here because he couldn’t land a deal with an NFL team. That’s a fair question, but this signing

is highly newsworthy because the sporting world is one of the last frontiers for gay people. We have plenty of openly gay people in politics (Kathleen Wynne) and entertainment (Neil Patrick Harris) but few in the macho world of men’s team sports. However, once the season starts, I predict the hype will die down and Sam will be just another player, albeit a good one. If he’s treated irregularly, that would probably be a bad sign for everybody. But here’s what I like best about Sam joining the CFL. The league has long been a place for good football players who didn’t get a chance in the NFL because of some sort of bias. Quarterback Warren Moon was at first overlooked by the NFL because of the colour of his skin. But then, after six years of dominating the CFL with the Edmonton Eskimos up to 1983, he was given an opportunity in the NFL where he did the same. Pint-sized quarterback Doug Flutie wasn’t given much of a chance in the NFL owing to his height, but after eight years of dominating the CFL, he returned to the NFL and found success. Sam may become another player who dominates the CFL because he really should be in the NFL. I’m not convinced the macho-world of American football was ready to give an openly gay man a chance. Sam was drafted by the not-very-good St. Louis Rams in the seventh round (249th overall) of the 2014 NFL draft, but he was cut by the Rams and later signed as a practice roster player for the Dallas Cowboys, who also let him go. But other players with similar resumes have found their way to NFL rosters quicker. Sam was a standout in college with the NCAA’s Missouri Tigers and was named the Southeastern Conference Defensive Player of the Year in 2013. Of the ten athletes who won the same award before him, only one was drafted outside the top 33 picks in the NFL draft. As in the case of Moon and Flutie, the NFL’s loss will be the CFL’s gain. I’ll be rooting for Michael Sam this summer and reacquainting my love for the Canadian game.

Senior governments should be involved in hospice campaign By Bill Freeman
News - Norwood - Senior levels of government should be involved in the capital building campaign for Hospice Peterboroughâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposed new 19,000square-foot care centre, Asphodel-Norwood council said during a visit by Bill Lockington of the Every Moment Matters fundraising campaign team. The $6.5-million campaign will transform the former Langton House replacing their current 3,000-square-foot facility where
end-of-life care and over 20 support programs are provided. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;bricks and mortarâ&#x20AC;? cost of the new building is $4.8 million with every dollar of the $6.5million total coming from the community, said Lockington. Hospice Peterborough has an operating budget of $900,000 a year with the Central East Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) providing $435,000. The balance is raised annually by volunteers. The new facility will have ten hospice beds and an operating
budget of $1.3 million a year with the LHIN contributing $900,000. The organization has never had a deficit since opening in 1988. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a model of sustainability and financial wellness,â&#x20AC;? Lockington said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is no capital money from either [senior] level of government to do this project,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All the capital must come from the community. We must raise an extra $300,000 in operating plus the $400,000 we already raise.â&#x20AC;? The campaign team is hopeful of contributions from the city and

county. Visiting local township councils is â&#x20AC;&#x153;part of an educational process.â&#x20AC;? The stop in AsphodelNorwood was their first. They appeared in Havelock-BelmontMethuen as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The province and federal governments should be involved in this project,â&#x20AC;? said Lockington. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If they arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t this becomes a partnership between the community, city, county and volunteers. This is one of the best public, private partnerships youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll ever find.â&#x20AC;? Along with the ten new beds, the facility will expand on the programs Hospice already offers. The beds will be housed in a 10,000-squarefoot â&#x20AC;&#x153;family friendly settingâ&#x20AC;? portion of the new site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a beautiful site, perfectly suited for the design,â&#x20AC;? said Lockington. Right now, Hospice runs out of a former church manse and is â&#x20AC;&#x153;feeling the crunch of space.â&#x20AC;? Since 1988, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve provided end-of-life care and grievance support for over 135,000 people; in 2014 there were 22,000 client interactions and 800 referrals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hospice is a very valued community asset to people who have experienced programs but to those who havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Hospice is a somewhat low profile operation,â&#x20AC;?
Lockington admitted. Hospice is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;number of things,â&#x20AC;? he said, including a â&#x20AC;&#x153;philosophyâ&#x20AC;? and an â&#x20AC;&#x153;approachâ&#x20AC;? to end-of-life care. The focus is on improving the quality of life for patients and those affected. It also helps families navigate the â&#x20AC;&#x153;very difficultâ&#x20AC;? pathways of health care during stressful times. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is where Hospice plays a very distinct roleâ&#x20AC;? working with groups across the â&#x20AC;&#x153;care spectrum.â&#x20AC;? A community-based hospice is â&#x20AC;&#x153;quite differentâ&#x20AC;? than hospitalbased palliative care, he emphasized. Peterborough Regional Health Centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s palliative care unit is excellent but has just 15 beds in service of its original 25. The new Hospice beds will bring things â&#x20AC;&#x153;back up to capacityâ&#x20AC;? in the community. Lockington pointed to a recent provincial health quality report that says there should be 1,100 hospice beds in Ontario; there are just 271 and another 270 palliative care bedsâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;a mere 20 per cent of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needed. At the same time the province is shifting its focus toward community-centred care. The Hospice project is â&#x20AC;&#x153;directly aligned with that shift,â&#x20AC;? says
Bill Lockington
Lockington. Asphodel-Norwood wants the province and federal government to be more involved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remarkable that in a country like Canada we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have adequate access to end-oflife palliative care,â&#x20AC;? Councillor Debbie Lynch said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Is there anything communities can do to get governments to step up to the plate with adequate funding?â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like pushing a bus up the side of a mountain; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not easy,â&#x20AC;? admitted campaign team member Jim Devlin. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;more awareness [politicians] haveâ&#x20AC;? of Hospiceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s services the better, he added.

Fresh start for Hastings Revitalization Happy Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day to All Our Customers, Friends And Families a restaurateur and entrepreneur who operates Banjoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Grill, would like to see the HRA become a â&#x20AC;&#x153;networking vehicleâ&#x20AC;? for other organizations. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just the HRA thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had trouble attracting volunteers and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just Hastings, he stressed. One of the building blocks of any successful group is creating a strong communication platform and the HRA plans to place emphasis on making sure messages are conveyed clearly and that social media is used effectively so there is a good, clear dialogue amongst volunteers, residents and other community organizations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to find that communication to make sure people know what is happening,â&#x20AC;? Metcalf said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think this is a good first step. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a while since weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had this many people [together],â&#x20AC;? Metcalf said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope we get some positive enthusiasm [from it]. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone likes positivity and to have something new and to see something actually happen within the community and even to have a little bit of initiative to be part of it,â&#x20AC;? he said afterward. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully people all go
away with some commitment and thinking something good is going to happen from this and even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something small itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth being involved.â&#x20AC;? Metcalf reiterated the value of communication. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letting people know is huge. If people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help.â&#x20AC;? Metcalf also wants people to understand that volunteering can be done on a small scale and doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to require an enormous investment in personal time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone is so busy these days with work, family and other commitments; if they have a small amount of time and they want to come out and relax and do something nice for the community [weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re here],â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people giving a little bit of time is just as good as a few people giving a lot of time.â&#x20AC;? The groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next meeting is July 9 and Metcalf says theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll spend time talking about the organization of the HRA, other community organizations and how they can be involved as well as events. They will also touch on committees and subcommittees and some tasks and objectives they might pursue.

News - Hastings - The Hastings Revitalization Association (HRA) has given itself a fresh start with new faces at the helm and a strong emphasis on communication and tapping into the villageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volunteer base. The newly incarnated association, with Mike Metcalf as chair, treasurer Danica Donald and secretary Shannon Lawrence got off to a strong beginning with an informal â&#x20AC;&#x153;round tableâ&#x20AC;? brainstorming session that drew close to 30 people to the Hastings Civic Centre representing a diversity of ideas and aspirations. The meeting touched on volunteers and organizations, events, fundraising and improvements and was deliberately informal, something Metcalf said was key in generating ideas and thoughts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The other meetings will have more structure,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a good start.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully this organization will be a vehicle to bring other organizations together and give them a common voice; different organizations that are also dependent on a volunteer base,â&#x20AC;? he said. Among other things, Metcalf,

Neighbouring councils want more info on solar requests By Bill Freeman
News - Havelock - Councils in Havelock-Belmont-Methuen and AsphodelNorwood want more information about two proposed ground mount solar projects in their townships before they consider renewing â&#x20AC;&#x153;priority pointsâ&#x20AC;? support resolutions. Peter Triassi of Soventix Canada Inc. appeared before both councils seeking renewal of support resolutions the company received in 2013 for the Small FIT (Feed-in Tariff) ground mount projects theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve proposed on private lands. The projects didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the contract cut during the last call for proposals and Soventix wants to reapply to the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) during the next round for applications which closes at the end of July. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;quite modestâ&#x20AC;? 600 kW project in HBM would be built on eight acres of â&#x20AC;&#x153;sub-primeâ&#x20AC;? land on Highway 7 east of Havelock currently zoned rural residential; in Asphodel-Norwood a 500 kW project would be sited on ďŹ ve acres of agricultural land at 2135 Cameron Line. The projects have not â&#x20AC;&#x153;changed in any material way,â&#x20AC;? Triassi said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is strictly a renewal of that existing resolution.â&#x20AC;? The â&#x20AC;&#x153;sole purposeâ&#x20AC;? for the resolution is so the application can gain priority points as it moves forward, he said. Applications with municipal support
resolutions carry more â&#x20AC;&#x153;cloutâ&#x20AC;? with the IESO, he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are a lot of hurdles involved and this is one of many,â&#x20AC;? Triassi said. A support resolution doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t guarantee a projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The program is highly competitive. The industry success rate is approximately 15 per cent. The vast majority never see the light of day,â&#x20AC;? Triassi told A-N council. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Part of our job is dealing with disappointment.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;[Contracts] are guaranteed for 20 years and the yield per acre is much higher than any agricultural crop,â&#x20AC;? Triassi added. Both projects are set back more than 300 metres from road allowances. At the Cameron Line site thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existing visual screening to the east but Soventix will have to provide screening on the other sides. In HBM thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s visual buffering to the east and west. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any line of site from a dwelling or open road allowance must be blocked off,â&#x20AC;? Triassi said. Asphodel-Norwood council expressed concern about the fact that the project is earmarked for agricultural land thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being brought back into crop production. They want to take a closer look at land classiďŹ cation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We prize every piece of agricultural land we can put back into production,â&#x20AC;? Mayor Terry Low said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Give us a chance to research it, especially the class
of land; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being rejuvenated.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The land in the last couple of years has been brought back into some agricultural crop production. It is productive land out there,â&#x20AC;? said Councillor Bernadette Vanderhorst. â&#x20AC;&#x153;[We] canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have precedents and have solar projects on land zoned agriculture.â&#x20AC;? Under provincial regulation, projects canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be built on prime agricultural land (Class 1-3) or organic soils. The Cameron Line facility is
â&#x20AC;&#x153;nowhere near those classiďŹ cations,â&#x20AC;? Triassi said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That is a ďŹ eld that has grass or hay on it so you would be taking a viable piece of farmland out of commission,â&#x20AC;? said Councillor Debbie Lynch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are working that ďŹ eld up right now,â&#x20AC;? Mayor Low added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like the opportunity to really take a look at this. There are a lot of unknowns. Bear with us.â&#x20AC;? In HBM, Councillor Barry Pomeroy
said it would only be â&#x20AC;&#x153;fairâ&#x20AC;? that any resolution be from the new council and not an endorsement of one approved by the previous council. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a big thing but everybody here has an obligation to the taxpayers to be able to answer those questions.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a new ask for this council,â&#x20AC;? Mayor Ron Gerow said requesting Triassi provide more information and contact details of other Soventix locations in Ontario.
Paramedics honour Campbellford man for rescuing mother, child News - Northumberland County A Campbellford man who rescued an injured mother and her ďŹ ve-month-old infant from a burning minivan has received a Northumberland Paramedics Community Award for his heroic actions. Garneth Fry was driving north on County Road 30 in February, headed to Crowe Lake for an ice ďŹ shing trip, when he observed a southbound minivan crash into the ditch, hitting a number of trees. He immediately pulled over to see if he could help, and saw that the front end of the van was on ďŹ re. Fry called out to the driver, not
realizing there was an infant in a car seat as well. The mother had broken both her ankles and was unable to get out on her own. Fry helped both mother and baby out of the vehicle before the ďŹ re spread to the vanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passenger compartment. The Community Award, presented at Cobourg during Paramedic Week (May 24 to 30), recognizes individuals, or organizations, who contribute to the success of paramedics, such as assisting at a hospital or the scene of an emergency, or by promoting and supporting paramedicine through newspaper, radio or television.
The six recipients included Brian Blimkie, a long-serving member of the OPP who was a sergeant at the Campbellford detachment for many years. One of the Northumberland Paramedics working in Campbellford said Blimkie â&#x20AC;&#x153;consistently demonstrated professionalism and courtesyâ&#x20AC;? toward paramedics, ďŹ re crews, and members of the public at emergency scenes, Northumberland County said in a news release. He â&#x20AC;&#x153;was an ideal partner who would not hesitate to become involved in any patient care that was required of himâ&#x20AC;? to support paramedics on site.

Each of the windows that run along either side of the sanctuary includes a large circle at the bottom containing the subject matter and a smaller circle at the top representing the individuals or group for whom the windows were dedicated.

Heritage Centre â&#x20AC;&#x153;fabulousâ&#x20AC;? addition to township By Bill Freeman
The impressive Asphodel-Norwood Heritage Centre in Westwood was officially opened Saturday during a drop-in celebration that included a ribbon cutting by (l-r) township Councillor Debbie Lynch, Asphodel-Norwood Historical Society members Doris Stephens, Brenda Bullock, Jesse Brown, Jim Chaplin, president Judy Chaplin and Terry Stephens. Doris, Brenda, Jesse and Terry are founding members of the 23-year-old organization. Photo: Bill Freeman
Guests look at some of the displays at the new Asphodel-Norwood Heritage Centre in Westwood. The centre, located in the Township of Asphodelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former municipal building, will tentatively be open Tuesday to Thursday from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. or by appointment. Photo: Bill Freeman
News - Westwood - Admiration, awe and delight were the predominant emotions percolating through the crowd that ďŹ lled the Asphodel-Norwood Heritage Centre during its grand opening Saturday in Westwood. The long dreamed of home of the 23-year-old Asphodel-Norwood Historical Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vast and impressive collection has found a permanent site in the former Asphodel Township municipal office; it now has the potential to draw local history buffs to Westwood making the quaint historic hamlet a heritage destination. The reaction of guests was uniformly praiseworthy and affirmed the aspirations of Historical Society members who have assiduously preserved their growing collection, sometimes against difficult odds, since establishing the group in 1992. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s absolutely fabulous. There couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a better use for this building,â&#x20AC;? said artist Katherine Helmer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Someone can come and just spend time here and learn about the community. The heritage is right here. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s full of treasures.â&#x20AC;? Founding member Jesse Brown was visibly moved by what she saw. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just great. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe we had all of this stuff in different places. It really needed a home. I just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t
Car, truck and bike show sure to draw a crowd
News - Havelock - Classic cars, trucks and motorcycles will light up Havelock June 19 during a showcase of classic vehicles along Oak Street just off Highway 7. The show is being organized by the Havelock-BelmontMethuen Economic Development Advisory Committee and will feature prizes, music, barbecue fare, a 50-50 draw and much more. It will run from 5 to 9 p.m. The committee decided at their April meeting that they would like to host an event that would draw people to the community, HavelockBelmont-Methuen Economic Development OfďŹ cer Brian Grattan said. They chose a Friday evening in the hope that would not be competing with other neighbouring events. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The committee hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t decided if this will be a one-time event or whether it may be repeated on an annual basis or monthly basis during the summer,â&#x20AC;? said Grattan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will certainly evaluate the success of this event and see if there is support to carry the event on.â&#x20AC;?

believe we had this much,â&#x20AC;? Brown said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to add a great deal to the whole district because we have so much information and now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easily accessible.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think of enough adjectives to describe this,â&#x20AC;? said Rob Gordon, a local author and guiding force behind the Norwood Legionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military museum. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is the most progressive thing that has happened in this township this year.â&#x20AC;? Gordon, also a Historical Society member, remembers meetings held in the empty municipal building and lamenting that it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t being put to better use. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To see it restored and put to use as a heritage centre is wonderful,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to come many times because you learn something new every time you come here.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;You couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t imagine anything better than whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s here,â&#x20AC;? said Jim Coveney, a member of the Hastings Historical Society which is currently homeless. Coveney called it a â&#x20AC;&#x153;phenomenal effort. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has been the efforts of many years and good people. This is an inspiration to any historical society.â&#x20AC;? Township Councillor Debbie Lynch, another society member, says that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;quite shockingâ&#x20AC;? when you see the collection gathered and
displayed in one dedicated space. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think people have no idea as to our history. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so important that before this is lost that we preserve what we can. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m impressed today by the people who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe [how many artefacts the society has collected].â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a real eye-opener of what they might hold in their own homes and their families,â&#x20AC;? Lynch said, adding that the society is hopeful they can secure grant funds to pursue a digitization project. That would be a â&#x20AC;&#x153;great serviceâ&#x20AC;? to the public â&#x20AC;&#x153;that we can document it, store it appropriately and share.â&#x20AC;? Historical Society president Judy Chaplin was â&#x20AC;&#x153;thrilledâ&#x20AC;? with the turnout and the â&#x20AC;&#x153;positive reaction.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope people will come and make use of it. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be some exciting things happen in the future too,â&#x20AC;? she added. Chaplin praised the societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s founders as well as the municipality for offering the space and assistance in moving items from the public works building where some had been stored. She invited people to â&#x20AC;&#x153;sit down and explore our history. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a story behind everything.â&#x20AC;? The centre will be open Tuesday to Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. or by appointment.

59th annual Donnybrook Sale and Auction just around the corner News - Warkworth - The Warkworth Community Service Club will celebrate the 59th anniversary of its annual Donnybrook Sale and Auction Saturday, June 20. As is customary, people who arrive at the fairgrounds at 5 p.m. will be able to fill a box for $3 with books, clothing and toys at the Red Barn located near the entrance to the fairgrounds. The main event starts at 7 p.m. in the Warkworth Arena when all new, used and unwanted treasures donated by Warkworth-area residents will come under the hammer of ten auctioneers.
The doors open at 6:30 p.m. for a preview of the furniture, electronics, household goods, antiques, sporting goods, tools, and lawn and garden items. There is no registration or auction numbers. Payment is made as an item is sold. Members of the service club and community volunteers will pick up sale and auction items in Trent Hills (RR1 only), Percy Ward and Warkworth areas (postal code K0K 3K0) Thursday evening, June 18. Check your basement, garage and clothes closets for good quality items
that you no longer need and place them by the curb. Pickup starts about 5 p.m. You can also drop usable items off at the arena from 5 to 9 p.m. on Thursday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday, June 19. There are no drop-offs on Saturday. By government regulation, the service club cannot pick up any hazardous materials (paints, oil, pesticides/herbicides, propane tanks or batteries), mattresses or box springs, childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car seats, baby cribs or baby walkers. It will also not accept tires, refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners or any items with Freon.
Donnybrook organizers request that any electronics and electrical appliances be in good working order, and that any furniture donations be of good quality. Items that do not work or are in need of repair will be rejected. Every year the club must pay for the disposal of dozens of torn, broken, and dilapidated sofas and armchairs that cannot reasonably be sold. The disposal costs are growing and directly reduce the amount of money the club is able to reinvest in the community. The club has once again partnered with the Ontario Electronic Steward-
ship program which pays for all unsold electronics, thus reducing what is taken to the landfill and increasing the amount of money given back to the community. The Percy Minor Hockey Association will be selling hot dogs, hamburgers, French fries and cold drinks. Be sure to bring the family, as there is something for everyone, and be part of Northumberlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest Reduce, Recycle, and Reuse event. For more information or to arrange for a special pickup call 705-9241877.
OPP announces new detachment commander for Northumberland News - Northumberland County Lisa Darling, currently acting inspector and acting manager of corporate communications and executive services, has been named the new detachment commander of Northumberland OPP. Chief Superintendent John Tod,
the regional commander of the OPPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Central Region and the communities of Northumberland County, announced Darlingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s promotion to inspector and position of detachment commander in a news release. Darling, who takes over from Inspector Doug Borton, who retired
as detachment commander last year, joined the OPP in 1995 with postings at the Chatham and Lambton detachments. She was promoted to the rank of sergeant in 2007 and has held a series of progressively responsible cross command positions in the First Nations and Municipal Policing Bureau, the Provincial Commanders Office and the Business Management Bu-
reau. In 2011, she was promoted to the rank of staff sergeant as executive officer to the Deputy Commissioner of Traffic Safety and Operational Support. Darling holds a bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in political science and sociology and a post-graduate diploma in business administration from Wilfrid Laurier University. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am looking forward to engaging
with the community leaders, stakeholders, policing partners and the men and women of the Northumberland OPP as we continue to build a collaborative and focused approach to public safety for the County of Northumberland,â&#x20AC;? Darling said in a statement. Police services boards for Port Hope, Brighton, Trent Hills, Hamilton Township, Alnwick-Haldimand and Cramahe Township assisted in the selection process.

Admission is free to the Kids, Cops and Canadian Tire event but donations are accepted in support of habitat restoration projects at the conservation area. This year 96 adults and children turned out for the catch-and-keep event held June 6, but the fish can still be caught for the rest of the summer, before they die off in the warm closed environment.

Camp Day rallies support in Havelock By Bill Freeman
News - Havelock - “It makes me smile,” Christine Ferguson says of the children Tim Hortons in Havelock has been able to send to summer camp. Staff and customers at the busy Highway 7 restaurant were in full Camp Day mode June 3 as they helped raise funds that will be used to support local children and their dream of spending time at summer camp. Camp Day is Tim Hortons largest fundraiser of the year with 100 per cent of the proceeds from coffee sales going to the Tim Hortons Foundation; additional money was raised in Havelock through a large silent auction and drivethrough squeegee volunteers. There was even a $100 donation from Canadians who winter at the Superstition Sunrise Resort in Mesa, Arizona, courtesy of Norwood snowbirds Kathy and Harold Tibbits. Last year, Tim Hortons
raised $11.8 million for the foundation and sent over 17,000 children to summer camp. “It’s a lot of work and a lot of dedication and a lot of hours but it’s a lot of fun,” says Ferguson who spearheads the campaign for staff in Havelock. “It just makes the kids happy. They [the children] come in and to see their faces light up and when they come back from camp and they’re trying to tell their parents everything it makes me cry.” This year, they concentrated on the silent auction and squeegee donations; the auction featured some big ticket items like an autographed photo of the 2012 Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings and $1,200 worth of Havelock Jamboree tickets (a double weekend pass and two, single weekend passes). “The community donates generously every year,” says Ferguson. “I can’t thank them
enough. It’s amazing. The community is happy to help because they know it’s for the kids. “It’s been a good year.” “It’s an amazing opportunity for us in the community to be here and support kids going to camp,” restaurant owner-operator Chris Smith said. “The community rallies behind it and drives things forward. The staff does a terrific job of organizing things and running Tim Hortons Havelock owner-operator Chris Smith and his son Benjamin, two, accept a $100 donation from Harold Tibbits of events to raise funds.

Photo: Bill Freeman all year long they look forward to; there’s a buildup for it,” said Smith. “It’s something different they don’t get to do every year.” Smith said they have one youth who is in the fifth year attending camp and will be there this season as a leader. “It’s building that confidence and giving them that summer camp experience they normally might not be able to have.”

Phillips said the $150,000 estimate, which doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t include the price of the lotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purchaseâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;work can be done with the ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s permissionâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;is for â&#x20AC;&#x153;significant landscapingâ&#x20AC;? and the installation of signage for tourists showing attractions and a business directory. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It would be a real showpiece for that corner,â&#x20AC;? she said in an interview.
The municipality had also been poised to carry out improvements to the facade and structure of the Heritage Barn more than three years ago but the quotes it received for the plans that had been drawn up â&#x20AC;&#x153;were beyond what we had anticipated,â&#x20AC;? director of planning Jim Peters told the Independent. The proposed work will make the second floor, where a working model railroad layout of the area is on display, more accessible to the public.
Friends of Library get ready for book, trunk sale News - Hastings - The Friends of the Hastings Library are looking ahead to a summer event that will delight readers and treasure-hunters everywhere. The Friends will host their annual book sale on July 4 but have added a nice summer twist to the occasion by offering up space to vendors to sell things from the trunks of their cars. The Book and Trunk sale will take place in the Hastings Civic Centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parking lot from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Trunk space is available at $10 per parking space. If you are interested in booking space for the sale call Joyce Higgs at 705-696-3473 or contact any member of the Hastings Public Libraryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s staff during regular operating hours at 705-696-2111. The summer book sale is perhaps the biggest fundraiser of the year for the Friends of the Library,
a volunteer group that supports and promotes the Hastings branch of the Trent Hills Public Library. The Friends of the Library host an authorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s night every fall and are in the process of organizing this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s much-anticipated event September 25 featuring Brighton writer and historian Dan Buchanan whose book Murder in the Family will be released July 25. The book tells the true-crime story of Dr. William H. King who poisoned his wife Sarah Ann in 1858 and became the only person to be executed in Northumberland County. Recent guests have included Lynn Phillip Hodgson, author of the bestselling Inside Camp X, Governor-General Award winner Jane Urquhart, Drew Hayden Taylor and popular business writer and commentator Hank Cunningham.

town project would be Campbellfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so we saw this as an opportunity to accomplish that,â&#x20AC;? he said. Mayor Hector Macmillan said council has â&#x20AC;&#x153;been pouring money into both Hastings and Warkworth for a number of years now, and Campbellford has sat backâ&#x20AC;? waiting its turn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are those who very eloquently point out that two-thirds of the tax dollars come out of the Campbellford-Seymour ward, and they want some money spent there,â&#x20AC;? he said. A new ball diamond had been in the works until council was forced to defer the idea in 2013 when tenders came in considerably higher than had been estimated. The million-dollar price tag now attached to the project reflects the higher cost. Councillor Bill Thompson said a new ball diamond â&#x20AC;&#x153;is the most important thingâ&#x20AC;? on the list, having donated land on County Road 38 for its construction. The value of the donated land was estimated at $100,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a shame that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not moving on trying to do something with it,â&#x20AC;? he said. Others on council agreed, in voting to make it number one among the three applications. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s past due,â&#x20AC;? Deputy-mayor Bob Crate said. The municipality has $150,000 in reserves for the project, and additional funds are available through Trent Hillsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ongoing recreation centre redevelopment program. Converting the vacant lot at the corner of Front and Bridge streets into a town square was second on the list. Councillor Rosemary Kelleher-MacLennan saw it as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a key component to helping downtown Campbellfordâ&#x20AC;? by turning the space that has been used by

Volunteers making a difference to bring cat population under control News - Trent Hills - “Under new management,” the Cat Care Initiative is committed to helping Trent Hills with its feline problem, says Irene Lawson, who took over as president after the group’s co-founder Suzanne Hart resigned May 1. Campbellford “is being overrun” by cats, Lawson said. “There are cats in town everywhere.” It’s “not unusual” to collect ten or more cats at one location, using humane traps that are watched by volunteers and never left unattended. Whether it’s cats accustomed to living in the wild or pets that have been abandoned, CCI volunteers will do their best to see the animals get the attention they need, which begins with their being spayed or neutered. “They breed every four months, [so] you want to get those females and males done as quickly as possible to reduce the numbers,” Lawson said. Otherwise, the problem “just escalates.” “The numbers are just outrageous right now. I don’t think people understand how many are out there that need to be done,” she said. “The ones that are multiplying in the colonies are the ones we really want to focus on because those … are the ones that will produce huge numbers.” CCI volunteers have “definitely made a big difference,” as “well over 400” cats have been spayed or neutered in the last two years. Feral cats are returned to the wild, with one ear clipped to show they’re no longer capable of reproducing. Abandoned cats and kittens are placed in foster homes temporarily until permanent homes can be found for them. Since opening the Cat’s Cradle New to You Boutique last August, the not-for-profit corporation has found homes for 43 of the 106 cats that came into its care. The store on Bridge Street West
“has been fantastic for adoptions,” Lawson said. “The kittens go fairly quickly.” They’re not given away until they reach the age of eight weeks. “We want to make sure they’re good and healthy,” Lawson said. The organization relies on donations to the store and the revenue they generate in sales to keep going. This year its operations were given a boost with a $10,000 grant from the Municipality of Trent Hills. The organization keeps a list of people seeking help with cats. It waits until it has enough money on hand to pay a vet’s bill before taking them in for spaying and
neutering. “We’re trying not to say no to anybody,” Lawson said. “We tell them when we have the funds we will definitely come and help.” CCI can also assist catowners with the cost of spaying or neutering their pet. It will arrange for its vet to spay and neuter at a reduced rate, $100, instead of $350, Lawson said. If you need help with a cat problem, would like to volunteer, or have items to donate, email <trenthillscatcare@gmail.com>. CCI is often in need as well of people with carpentry skills to make “cat condos” for feral colonies.
Irene Lawson, president of the Cat Care Initiative, says the not-for-profit organization’s used goods store on Bridge Street West in Campbellford “has been fantastic for adoptions. The kittens go fairly quickly.” Photo: John Campbell

Millpond trail system an “untapped jewel” By Bill Freeman
News - Norwood - The trail network that wends its way through the Norwood Conservation Area is an “untapped jewel” begging for serious development, says Ron Scott who played host again to another International Trails Festival program at the site north of Norwood. The fourth annual international trails festival was promoted by the Otonabee Region Conservation Authority and invited hikers, naturalists and other outdoor enthusiasts to explore the rich variety of trails in Peterborough County and City. For a second year the Norwood Conservation Area’s trail system which stretches out beyond the Breathing Forest plantation and encircles the millpond was included on the list. Elementary and high school students were given guided tours Wednesday by Scott, a former chair of both the conservation authority and its foundation, and other volunteers. Scott was also part of the Norwood Millpond Committee which has made some inroads into developing the
trails. “It’s definitely an untapped jewel but it is going to take somebody to take it on,” Scott told The Independent. “The basics are under way but we’re out of manpower with people who have the time to do something.” There was no trail marking done the past year so overgrowth was prominent but the trails remain distinctive and rise as far as the summit that overlooks the millpond and village. Guides showed off the Breathing Forest which has sprung to new life thanks to a partnership between St. Paul Catholic Elementary School Grade 5 students, the Otonabee Region Conservation Foundation and Norwood District High School’s Forestry program; guides also talked about landmarks such as Flat Rock Falls, an old barn foundation, an ancient underground river and its various entrances. Flat Rock Falls, an old barn foundation, an ancient underground river and its various entrances. “If the trails could be developed fully it would make Norwood a destination,” said Scott,
“especially if we could [have this] designated wheel chair accessible then it would definitely be a destination for all. People have come from other places and they’ve certainly been impressed and they probably haven’t seen the highlights.” The Kawartha Trail Association visited the site recently and Scott said they were “impressed by what a nice spot it was.” The network is based on trails people have used over the years walking the site. When gravel was being taken out of the property roads were also built and now nature has taken them back. There is a “big problem” with poison ivy, Scott acknowledges, along with current concerns about black ticks and Lyme disease. On the poison ivy, Scott and the guides point out patches to visitors. “It’s hard to know how to get rid of it safely,” he says. He’s not sure if there is a black tick problem or not but reminds all hikers that they should dress properly and use DEET spray no matter where they’re walking. “I’ve never had anyone get
The Trent Hills Regional News published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!
Lyme disease out of here but they say it’s coming back pretty strong [but] people can’t stay indoors in the off chance they might see a tick.” Scott’s happy ORCA is involved in promoting the trails festival but acknowledges that they don’t have the staff to take on a trails development project in Norwood. “It’s nice to see that the municipality knows that it’s important enough to take part,” he added. Grade 5 students from Norwood District Public School walk through the Breathing Forest at the Norwood Conservation Area during the fourth international trails festival which showcased trails around Peterborough County and the City of Peterborough. Asphodel-Norwood Councillor Bernadette Vanderhorst leads Norwood District Public School on a tour of the Norwood Conservation Area’s trail system during an International Trails Festival event.

Kindergarten students tally their “Loose Change for Chickens” project By Sue Dickens
News - Campbellford - When the Kindergarten students at Hillcrest Public School embarked on the collection of “Loose Change for Chickens,” they got very excited about where that money would go. Their efforts were featured in the Independent as they talked about the chicks in their classroom brought there by a local dairy farmer Jerry McKelvie. Recently the tally of the loose change made it possible for the students to move forward with their plans. “Our Kindergarten students created a great deal of excitement in our school and
inspired students to contribute a total of $546.24,” said their teacher Joy Petherick. “My favourite part was holding them [the chicks] and feeding them and looking after them,” said Kindergarten student Ella Watson. The project began when the students were told the story of a West African boy named Kojo, in the book called One Hen: How One Small Loan Made a Big Difference. “When Mr. McKelvie [Jerry] heard that we were collecting Loose Change for Chickens he made a donation [$16] on toonie day, a toonie for each of our chicks we helped him raise. He thanked us and
was pleased to help us out,” Petherick added. The students spent time deciding where their money would go and as a result checked out the Plan Canada Gifts of Hope website. “We purchased eight gift sets of baby chicks, a farm load of animals, clean water for families, a goat plus three hens and a rooster for a grand total of $556,” noted Petherick. “The students were so proud of their efforts and delighted to help others,” she added. “I’m happy we can help another family in Africa,” said Kindergarten student Chase Villeneuve.

SPORTS Sports - High School Track and Field OFSAA Championships Varsity Stadium, Toronto June 4 to 6 East Northumberland Secondary School (ENSS) Blue Dragons’ Ben Snider counted for their first Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) track and field medal since 2009: mining bronze with a 13.10-metre leap in the junior boys triple jump event. Snider also made it to the school’s “OFSAA top eight” register with a fifth-place showing in junior boys long jump. As well,
Brighton Scoreboard Katie Larry was added to the list with her seventh-place finish in midget girls triple jump. Notably, Larry tied her own school record with a jump of 10.66 metres. Another school record was set by the senior boys 4x100-metre relay team with a 44.55-second run. In the “oh-so-close” category, ENSS junior boys 100-metre hurdles competitor Murdock Siegner missed the finals by a mere 0.18 seconds in his preliminary heat, while Katie Falla was edged out of the senior girls 400-metre hurdles final by 0.42 seconds. The contingent of 23 athletes from the local high school was

the largest ever to qualify for the OFSAA finals and, says coach Anne Falla, the entire coaching staff is “proud of the efforts that allowed these athletes to earn their spots at the provincial championship. I love to watch them try their hardest to run, jump or throw their best and I respect these students for their hard work and their commitment to our team.” Along with Falla, this year’s coaches included Suzanne Doornbos, Julie Lange, Rebecca Turner, Thano Adam and Tim Larry.

June 5 The ENSS Adventure Relay Team, the only high school team participating in the 29th annual event, placed fourth overall of 59 teams competing, marking the second year in a row the team has achieved the feat. The 60-kilometre race involves running, cycling, canoeing and swimming, followed by more running and cycling. Of note, Andrew Brown, who completed three legs of the eight-part race, had to borrow (with permission) another team’s mountain bike to complete the required run and maintain his squad’s time and position. “He was the hero of the team,” says coach Harold Kuschnik. The ENSS roster included Graiden Maynard (7.6-kilometre trail run); Cole Bond and Andrew Brown (four-kilometre canoe); CFB Trenton Surf and Turf Harold Kuschnik (25-kilometre Relay road bike); Andrew Brown (fivekilometre crosscountry run); Andrew Brown (nine-kilometre mountain bike); Garrett Hynes (7.5kilometre road run); Harold Kuschnik (500-metre pool swim); Anjoli Vanderkuur (3.5kilometre run).

Champlain’s voyage through Trent Valley a tantalizing mystery By Bill Freeman
News - Hastings - Grade 3 social studies and geography classes had a powerful impact on Stewart Richardson. As a youngster growing up in Hastings it was “drummed into” Richardson that Samuel de Champlain and his great army of Huron and Algonquin warriors travelled through Little Bobakaijmin (present day Hastings) on their way south to Lake Ontario and what is now New York State to fight their nemesis the Iroquois. That “historical fact” fuelled daydreams and sparked all kinds of canoeing fun for Richardson and his friends as they re-enacted courier de bois escapades. Fifty years later those daydreams are the foundation and impetus for continued historical research to confirm whether Champlain’s journey in September 1615 included his hometown. Richardson was the special guest of the Hastings Historical Society’s June meeting where he talked about Champlain’s possible canoeing routes and his own theory
that the great explorer and “Father of New France” did in fact travel to the east end of Rice Lake and down the Trent River. He directly challenged the hypothesis of former Ontario Premier Leslie Frost whose 1973 book Forgotten Pathways of the Trent suggests Champlain would have taken the Ganaraska route with a portage beginning near present-day Bewdley rather than two portage routes off the Trent River that took travellers to Percy Landing. Richardson also looked at the invaluable and definitive Percy Portage study a group of Trent University students produced in 1973 as well on the well-used portage route. He admits that both books provide compelling arguments against Champlain using the full Trent River route east through Hastings which would have required a 500-strong fighting force dealing with a drop of over 220 feet through Healey Falls, Middle Falls and Rainey Falls and the Percy Landing rapids. When Richardson first read
those two books he was “surprised” and disappointed to learn that Champlain might not have come through Hastings. “It was pretty obvious,” he said. But his own research has involved close reading of some of the valuable maps that have been produced by early surveyors including an 1817 map by Captain F.W. Owen. When he magnified a section of this map he discovered a “little entry which says Indian path to Robinsons” located along the Trent River east of Hastings. Robinson was an early European settler to the area. The entry suggested that this Indian path existed in the seventeenth century much like the Percy Portage did and that Champlain could still pass through Hastings and use this route to bypass the three falls and Percy rapids south of Campbellford and arrive at Percy Landing, and nearby salt springs, and continue on towards the Bay of Quinte. “It is important to note
that this portage is three miles shorter than the Percy Portage,” Richardson says. He also notes that the Trent River falls only 12 feet between Rice Lake and Healey Falls and would be “manageable” by the experienced canoeists. “The rapids in Hastings would have been easily passable in September,” he added. “My conclusion is that Champlain and his forces didn’t turn right and head west as they entered Rice Lake; they turned left and came into the Trent River.” As to which portage they took, Richardson says that’s “yet to be determined. “I hope somebody in the future will determine this and solve this little mystery. The good news is that all the daydreaming I did has not been for naught. I still think they came through Hastings.”
Local historian Stewart Richardson provided a fascinating talk on Samuel de Champlain’s possible travel routes through the Trent Region in 1615 with a warrior force of 500 Huron and Algonquin allies. Richardson maintains that it’s very possible that Champlain’s force journeyed east along the Trent River through what is now the Village of Hastings before heading south towards Lake Ontario. His work will be included in the book Finding Champlain’s Dream: Reflections on Champlain, First Nations and French Culture in Central Ontario since 1615, by Ellwood Jones, Peter Adams and Alan Brunger.

News - Campbellford Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) has stepped up the fight against hospital acquired infections thanks to the support of a local women’s group. The Seymour West Women’s Institute has donated $5,367.50 to the hospital for the purchase of a Nocospray Disinfection System. June 1 eight members
of the institute met with Joanne Oliver from AMG Medical Inc. and RN Marilyn Petherick, the Infection Control lead for CMH, to learn more about the new system and how it is now enhancing patient care at the hospital. The Nocospray has been used in Europe for a decade and is now recognized in North America as a highly effective and portable
system to help keep people safe from infection. It disperses Nocolyse, throughout a room in a gas form. Nocolyse is a hydrogen peroxide-based biodisinfectant that breaks down into water and oxygen and is ready for use. It is not corrosive and does not create germ resistance. It is precalibrated to ensure optimal coverage of all hard surfaces. The Nocospray System is easy to use and enables the hospital to enhance the efforts of staff (because of all the germs that cannot be seen), and ease time constraints thereby helping to protect patients. It is 99.99 per cent effective on Norovirus, MRSA, C. difficile and other pathogens. RN Marilyn Petherick said she was thrilled when she learned that the Seymour West Women’s Institute was going to fund the full purchase of the Nocospray. “Knowing the dedication of these women to helping patient care through the many generous donations they have made over the years to our foundation, it was an honour to bring them in to see how much impact their gift will have,” she stated.a “We thank them sincerely for helping us to bring patient safety to a whole new level.”

“Amazing” Aron is still around five years after being on the verge of closing By John Campbell
News - Campbellford - The success story that is Aron Theatre Co-operative Inc. was celebrated last Saturday when it held its annual general meeting and looked back on five years of achievements. The Aron Cinema “was on the verge of going out of business” until “the community came together” to save it by forming a co-operative to operate the theatre as a not-for-profit business run by volunteers, president Mark White told members. “How amazing it is that the Aron is actually still around,” he said, because “the entire Hollywood movie industry changed in 2012, just after we got up and running.” It decided to go digital, which was “a huge hurdle” to clear for a tiny, one-screen theatre, because the equipment is extremely expensive, but the co-operative met the challenge, with the help of its community partners, White said. “That’s probably one of our biggest accomplishments … [which] allowed us to stay in business, keep the doors open.” Its first digital offering, The Hunger Games, sold out. “We got just swamped with young people and it’s gone from there,” White said. Youth “are using our theatre … and enjoying it, which is incredible.” Their ongoing support is “critical” to the theatre’s success continuing into the future. Retaining members and adding new ones is also vitally important. “The Aron’s survival depends on membership,” White said. The revenue it generates covers half of the theatre’s basic expenses. There are currently 300, but “over the course of the Aron’s five years we’ve had over 1,300 members in total,” which means a thousand members “have drifted away.” The organization must make people understand that while the theatre was kept open, it needs members “to make sure it stays here because it would be a shame to lose it after all the work that went into saving it,” White said. Last year, Aron “made an operating surplus [$3,250] … for the first time,” reported Russ Christianson, founding president and chair of the finance committee. “We’re selling more tickets and we’re controlling expenses,” he said. “Everybody is making an effort to make this thing work.” Almost 12,000 movie tickets were sold in 2014; more than 5,800 were sold in the first five months
Russ Christianson, chair of the finance committee, said the Aron made money on its operations last year for the first time in its five-year existence. Photo: John Campbell
of this year, before the busy summer season had even begun. “We used to have two big nights a week, we now have four big nights a week and one slow night a week, but they’re all pretty good,” White said. “We are also renting out the theatre quite a bit more than we used to, [for] private groups, birthday parties, annual general meetings,” Christianson said. “That’s a real help.” Aron’s five-year bonds come due this year but “we’d like people who are willing to renew to flip them over for another five years,” he said, because of the repairs that need to be done, including replacing the roof and heating system. Once completed, they will add to the list of accomplishments that have included installing barrier-free doors and energy efficient lighting (the marquee consumes five per cent of the power it once used), building an accessible washroom, and replacing the seats and air conditioning. White expressed pride in Aron providing parttime jobs for young people, giving them “a taste for work” while “learning public service” at the same time.
Aron Theatre Co-operative Inc. president Mark White thanked Theresa Aldcroft for all the work she does as operations manager, which includes ensuring the theatre is well maintained and mentoring student staff. Photo: John Campbell B4 Section B - Thursday, June 11, 2015
TRAVEL
Belleville couple goes on four-month around-the-world cruise
Lifestyles - I expect many of my regular readers have concluded that I do quite a lot of travelling in order to write this column. However, today I’m going to write about a Belleville couple, John and Jill Morralee, who spent this entire winter, 112 days, on an around-the-world cruise, and none of my adventure treks have been that long. John and Jill have actually participated in this “trip of a lifetime” twice; they first did an around-the-world cruise in the winter of 2011, and then they decided
level as they crossed the Atlantic Ocean, so all was not “as smooth as silk” on this particular voyage. The seasickness and the development of a serious cough (known as “the Cunard cough”) led to visits from the ship’s doctor, but both remarked about “the excellent medical care” received onboard. John summed up this around-the-world cruise by saying that “travel broadens the mind,” so even these difficulties were a relevant part of the experience, and the trip itself, with its myriad adventures, was definitely worthwhile. He fondly

to do it again this past winter. Jill told me that “the itinerary included several different destinations this time,” and the previous winter had been so long, cold, and snowy that she thought that “it would be a perfect time to escape to several warm destinations.” Besides, she wouldn’t have to cook for four months; all their meals would be included aboard the Queen Elizabeth, where they would be pampered, entertained, and live in luxury. Their first around-the-world cruise had been “incredibly smooth,” for the weather had been very co-operative, and that was another major factor that led them to decide to do this extraordinary trip once again. However, they encountered very rough weather and seas this time, which led to some serious bouts of seasickness, particularly for Jill. John told me about his standing on the ship’s fifth balcony and watching the enormous waves crashing over the railing at that high
One of the many mosques seen on their travels.
recollected some of the trip’s highlights, including the entrance into the harbour at Sydney, Australia, with its renowned City Bridge and Opera House in full view, and that first glimpse at the opulence of Dubai. John said he was particularly impressed by the beauty of New Zealand, the cleanliness of Singapore, the hustle and bustle of Mumbai, India, and the uniqueness of Istanbul, Turkey.
John further stated that one of the disappointments on this cruise was that so many of the city harbours now look so similar, with their many modern skyscrapers: “Many of these arrivals seemed like a visit to Miami!” There were about 2,000 passengers and The Queen Elizabeth arrives in Australia. 1,000 crew aboard the Cunard line’s Such a long and remarkable trip would Queen Elizabeth, and about 500 of not be cheap, of course, and I learned that these passengers were true “around- the least expensive interior cabin would the-worlders”; the trip was divided into set each passenger back about $17,000. segments, so some passengers would The prices would then go up from there, travel a single segment, such as across for a window view, or a balcony, or a suite. the Atlantic from Southampton, England, John said there was one particular man to San Francisco in North America, and aboard for whom money was apparently then depart. For John, this “coming and not an issue at all, so he purchased two going” of people was one of the most of the most expensive suites, one for fascinating aspects of the cruise; he said himself, and one for his servant and the there was such an interesting and varied luggage. Yes, some people are very “well group of people aboard, and this changed off,” indeed. from segment to segment. For example, The Morralees explained that the he said many Australian passengers got true “around-the-worlders” were given off at the end of one segment and were some special cocktail parties and events replaced by many Japanese, and this exclusively for them, so these made them changed the “chemistry” of the ship. He feel particularly “special.” One lavish remarked on how “regimented” the Japanese group was, for example, always following their guide and staying together as a unit on the day trips away from the ship itself.
event that stood out to them as a highlight was a palace party in Abu Dhabi. They also fondly remembered a special memorial service aboard their ship which commemorated the World War I battle in the Dardanelles, for it was held on the 100th anniversary of this event. Other highlights included their welcome to the Hawaiian islands, witnessing the whirling dervishes in Turkey (a traditional dance ceremony), a swim above the Barrier Reef, a visit to rice paddies in Vietnam, and a trip through a city of canals in China. They both agreed that, despite some problems along the way, this aroundthe-world cruise was, indeed, a very worthwhile and memorable experience.

well-know brand–also works in the same sprayer. 0&S#3 How Come you don’t sell this product? This is a common and simple question but the answer is not as simple as you might think. A store shelf is a store shelf, whether it is inside a large department store or flat on the ground with the label “Shrub Bed #4.” What goes on that shelf is what the customer will buy and not necessarily what the retailer wants to sell. Sometimes we have a product we think is a sure fire seller; win-win for purchaser and vendor alike. Canadian developed Nincompoop fits that category. Simply put, in my opinion, it is the best composting, top dressing, garden enhancing soil amendment on the market. Also, in my opinion, it smells like growing up on the farm. I’m accustomed to the odour of manure but many of today’s urbanised population are not. Our store stocked it; we couldn’t sell it in the amounts needed to justify it filling up “shelf” space. Bottom line: it doesn’t matter how good it is, if the customers won’t buy it there’s no point having it. My
understanding is that Home Hardware can bring it in if requested. By the way, Gentle Reader, you might want to check out Myke, before it disappears from the retail inventory. Another aspect to this question is the need for each store to differentiate itself from its competitor. We can’t all sell the same product and we want to make sure we have something the other folk do not. Let’s use roses as an example. There are some exceptional collections such as the David Austen series and the excellent Canadian bred Explorer and Morden groups. If we just look at pink shrub roses, at one time our landscape nursery offered up 64 different cultivars of pink shrub roses alone. Our competitors in the area had similar numbers (combined). This was pointless- how many do you really need? For my money if you have a Bonica, a Morden Blush, a Glenora (Rambling Rose Nursery in The County) and a rugosa, you have what you need. O&S#4 Yes Sox is Alive! Last week’s column about Barks By the Bay in which Sox, our pup, returns to the printed page
was very popular. It seems that many of you had followed the cheerful canine as he began his maturation from puppy to adolescent to a mature member of the Clost Clan. His ab-
sence from the column, apparently, cause some unexpressed concerns on your part as to his health. Alas, he is older, much bigger, but still a puppy. He doesn’t plan on growing up.

O&S #1 Frost and tomatoes and peppers and squash and etc. The hard frost really did a number on quite a few veggie gardens in this newspaper’s catchment. We know that because many folk have been scrounging around the garden centre looking for replacements. In my part of Trenton, we also had frost on the ground but we didn’t lose any of our garden plants. I use straw as a heavy mulch. I rake it aside to expose bare ground for planting and, when finished, cover up the bare soil. Only the tops of the plants are exposed to the air and sun. When a frost warning is given, I simply cover up those tops with a bit of straw; it doesn’t take much. A few tomato tips did blacken but a week later, new green growth has replaced it. I know that doesn’t help much at the moment but, perhaps, next year it might make a difference. If this doesn’t appeal to you, then check out the calendar for the last full moon at the end of May or beginning of June and wait until after that day to put
out bedding plants. (Sowing seeds has a totally different timetable.) O&S#2 Feeding your Flowers Our store began selling hanging baskets in early May. Those plants have just about exhausted their food supply and are ready for a top up. You have two options for applying fertilizer: granular or water soluble. The granular can be a straight uncoated fertilizer that you sprinkle over the soil not the plant; lift the foliage. There is also the option of coated prills (a bit of fertilizer with a coating of a polymer or sulphur) which, in essence, release the fertilizer at a controlled rate. You can purchase specialised hanging basket coated fertilizer where each dose will last the entire season. Very simple and certainly the most expensive way of feeding your flowers. In many cases the time savings and the “do it once” convenience far outweighs the cost. The second method of water soluble fertilizer works very well and, thanks to decades of aggressive marketing, well known to many. What you might not know is that other water soluble fertilisers–gosh darn if they’re almost identical to the

Hundreds enjoy OPA Festival
Events - Belleville - The old phrase: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all Greek to meâ&#x20AC;? applied to literally hundreds of people for the second annual OPA Festival at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church Saturday. Sunny, seasonal weather beamed on the partiers, dancers and diners as the Greek community drew friends and neighbours of all faiths from across the region for traditional Greek food treats, tours of the colourful church and Greek dancing. The dancing was one of the main highlights as one of the announcers described how Greeks LOVE to dance. Colourful Twenty-month-old Mariana Najera from Massachusetts couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t resist joining in a dance performed by members of the local Greek costumes sparkled as young people from the local community community during the Quinte Greek OPA Festival held at the Greek Hall in Belleville on Saturday, June 6.

displayed their skills at traditional dances, graceful, stately in most cases. Sometimes they started with a slow rhythm, gradually increasing the speed to a whirling pace, usually in counterclockwise circles, the girls waving blue kerchiefs and sporting impressive manes of long, rich hair. In yet another dance, a type of warrior dance by the boys, wild leaps and threatening gestures were featured. While the local group were mainly youth, a second group from Toronto were young adults and provided a more sophisticated show during the afternoon. The menu included the traditional souvlaki (barbecued pork or chicken pieces in a bun or on a plate with rice), also moussaka, hamburg layered in egg custard and potatoes. Also popular were grape leaves stuffed with rice in a lemon sauce and of course, Greek sweets, rich in honey, like baklava. The bar offered Prince Edward County beers and wines plus liquor. And throughout, popular Greek tunes played over loudspeakers. In once dance, the famous one from Zorba the Greek movie, large numbers of the audience got up to join the frantic, friendly circle. Tours of the church drew substantial interest with its large display of beautiful and colourful icon paintings, illustrating Christian teachings and beliefs from a time before common literacy. A large wheeled cart, ornately carved, represented a tomb for the body of Christ on Good Friday, guides explained. The sprawling church parking lot was a hive of activity for people of all ages from mid-morning until late in the evening, with tents for ticket sales as well as sales and display booths. The modest $5 entry fee plus generous portions for food items seemed popular for people straggling in at all hours.

Max’s Big Ride will visit Tweed By Brett Mann
News - Tweed - On Wednesday, June 24, residents of Tweed are invited to come out to Tweed Memorial Park in support of Max’s Big Ride. Max is the four-year-old son of Andrew Sedmihradsky who has been diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), a progressive genetic disorder that gradually weakens the body’s muscles. DMD is considered the most severe form of muscular dystrophy. It
affects one in 35,000 boys and most children diagnosed with the condition will require a wheel chair by the age of 12. To gain support for Jesse’s Journey, a registered charity which raises funds for research into DMD, Mr. Sedmihradsky will be biking with Max 600 kilometres along the Canada Trail from Ottawa to his home in the Hamilton area, covering about 50 kilometres a day and stopping in eight communities along the way, including
Tweed. The pair will ride a European vision.” He terms the event at the cargo bike with Max riding in the park “a community hug.” large basket on the front. Mr. Lindsay remarks that this Tweed resident Chris Lindsay event may not be of the same has a cousin in Burlington who has magnitude as troops from Petawawa a nephew with muscular dystrophy. passing through town but Tweed Chris’ cousin is involved with marks the half-way point of Max’s organizing Max’s Big Ride and Big Ride and he hopes local when he heard of the project Mr. supporters will give the father and Lindsay decided to organize some son team encouragement to complete local support for the visit. the second half. “It’s a way to say “In my vision it’s a group of ‘we’re behind you,’” he explains. people down there [Tweed Park] Support is already growing for the with open arms when this father ride locally, and accommodations and son ride off the trail into town. have been donated for Mr. We’ve seen the people lining the Sedmihradsky and Max at Trudeau’s streets when the troops were going resort. The municipality is “one to Afghanistan, and it’s that type of hundred per cent” behind the project
with Community Development Manager Rachelle Hardesty helping with organizing and contacting service clubs for support, Lindsay reports. He notes that the ride has already raised $23,000 for research before its start. “We’ve always tried to promote kindness in our kids. This is about a father who will do absolutely anything for his son. I’d like to think that if I were in that position people would be supportive.” In a telephone conversation with Central Hastings News, Andrew Sedmihradsky reported “We’re very busy–in a good way–getting organized. Today we spent part
of the afternoon at a ball hockey tournament where they donated money from a raffle.” He adds that Jesse’s Journey began 20 years ago when John Davidson walked his son in a wheelchair “across Ontario” to raise awareness and funds for DMD research. Mr. Sedmihradsky has “passed through” Tweed and is looking forward to seeing it again. “It’s absolutely amazing to have such support from Tweed,” he comments. Mr. Lindsay concurs. “When the chips are down, this town responds like no other.” The June 24 “community hug” for Max and Andrew is scheduled for 3 p.m.
Andrew Sedmihradsky and his son Max will be riding the Canada Trail from Ottawa to Hamilton and stopping through Tweed on June 24. Max has been diagnosed with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a rare and severe condition which sees most sufferers in wheelchairs by the age of 12. A “community hug” is being arranged at Tweed Park to greet Max and his dad.

their gratitude for all of the support following Doug’s passing. Thank you to Quinte Access, Belleville Dialysis and Trenton Memorial Hospital for the care Doug received. Doug Rushnell, Jean and staff of Rushnell Family Services, you went above and beyond at a difficult time. We know that Doug was always considered family by the Rushnells. To the staff of the Community Gardens, thank you for allowing us to honour and remember Doug in his “church.” Reverend Brian Carswell, your words of comfort and encouragement were heartfelt and greatly appreciated. For the honour guard by The Quinte West Fire Service and The Junior A Golden Hawks, as well as the escort from the Quinte West OPP, we thank you. It was a touching tribute. Mayor Jim Harrison, Councillors and city staff, you did not hesitate in your support and offered to do anything that was needed. Thank you for honouring Doug’s contributions to the community and for providing the reception after the service. To the many friends, family and members of the community, your condolences and shared memories continue to bring us comfort. Doug, we love you and miss you.

Lorna Jean Hood
Our beloved Lorna Jean Hood (nee Alexander) passed into the arms of her ancestors May 28, 2015 at Victoria Hospice with her daughter Robin and niece Margaret Crombie at her side. Lorna was born in Terrebonne, Quebec on January 31, 1924. She was the youngest daughter of Lillian Dixon Job and Herbert Richard James Alexander. Lorna was predeceased by her parents and her three siblings: brothers, Ivan and Alfred Alexander and her older sister, Dorothy Crombie. Lorna met the dashing young Scot, Walter Henderson Hood at Montreal High School when she was 13, they were married after the war on May 22, 1948, in Montreal. During the war, Lorna bravely embraced new roles, including teaching in a one-room school house and working for a life insurance company. Lorna was proud to be a Nurse with the Royal Victoria Hospital in Montreal. She adored gardens, especially flowers, becoming a Master Gardener in her sixties. Also an avid knitter and seamstress, she created many much-loved pieces for her daughters and grandchildren. Lorna grew up on the family farm in Terrebonne and carried her love of farms, animals and healthy food for the rest of her life. Lorna and Walter lived in Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, and Cordova Mines, spending many wonderful years on Belmont Lake, enchanting the many friends who enjoyed Lornaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s famous pies and Walterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pit smoked salmon. Lorna and Walter moved to Victoria B.C. in 2004, and were fond of their condo on Rockland Avenue. Lorna was an enthusiastic blackberry and raspberry picker and an inspired cook. She made lasting friendships across the country and transferred her nursing skills to her familial and social lives, caring for those in need wherever she went. Lornaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family was her pride and joy. She leaves her dear husband of 67 years, Walter Hood, her daughters Barbara Hegenbart (John), Ellsworth, Maine; Rosemary Hood, Winnipeg; Robin June Hood (John Shields), Victoria; and Beverly Meyers of Campbellford. Her grandchildren; Amy Tunney, Erik Hegenbart, Owen Meyers, Alice Meyers, Alexander DeMarsh, Andrew DeMarsh, Stephen DeMarsh and Nicola Sanchez-Hood; her great grandchildren; Ewan Tunney and Nathan DeMarsh and her nieces and nephews; Gail, Jack and Margaret Crombie, Fred, Marilyn and Joyce Alexander, Bert Alexander, Tammy and Trixie Hood, Ron, Linda and Joanne Aspinall and Walter, Heather, Jani and Jill Dorken. And her beloved sisters in law, Muriel Alexander and Jean Dorken. Lornaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dear friends and family can be found across the country, from Belmont Lake, to Montreal, to Victoria - she adored all those around her and in turn was adored by all - she will be greatly missed.

News - Trent Hills - For more than a century, Canada pursued a policy of “cultural genocide” against Aboriginal people by eliminating their governments, ignoring their rights, stripping them of their identity, and terminating treaties, says the chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. The country also turned a blind eye to the horrific abuses that went on at residential schools where 150,000 Aboriginal children were sent not to be educated but to have their link to their culture and identity severed, Justice Murray Sinclair stated in the 381-page summary of the Commission’s final report released last week. What the children taken from their homes often experienced were beatings, rapes and emotional abuse, along with malnutrition and disease, as hundreds of Aboriginal former students testified in hearings conducted by the commission. That these atrocities were committed in Canada was more than Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan could bear. “For me personally it’s a sad day to be a Canadian,” he told
council June 2. “I’m ashamed and embarrassed what our past governments have done and in some cases not done.” Macmillan said he was so upset by what the report had to say that he called Alderville First Nations Chief Jim Bob Marsden earlier in the day to tell him how he felt. “I can’t believe that Canadians did this to people on our own soil,” he said. “I’m really ashamed.” The report contains 94 recommendations, including full adoption and implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and re-affirmation of the nation-to-nation relationship between Aboriginal peoples and the Crown. They also cover areas such as education, health, justice, child welfare, language and culture. Macmillan said he hoped “all levels of government” will immediately begin working on putting the recommendations into effect. “It’s a matter of moving from apology to action, to change what has been done, because the course of history for Aboriginal Canadians was dramatically altered by the actions of our government,” he said. “There’s a lot of things
that need to be done to heal those wounds.” One place to start would be to honour the treaties that were signed. “We should be living up to them, a deal’s a deal,” he said in an interview. Macmillan said “it’s just amazing” the number of Aboriginal communities that have had boil water advisories for years, “and yet municipalities are forced to spend vast amounts to make sure our water systems are safe for the users. “Where’s the policing to make sure that the federal government does the same thing [for Aboriginals]?” he asked. “It’s hypocrisy.” He added in an email: “It continues to boggle my mind how we as Canadians continue to stand on the world stage and dole out massive amounts of our Federal tax dollars to other countries when our own sins of the past AND current issues of poverty have yet to be resolved. I don’t begrudge other nations in need but I would like to see our own backyard issues and problems resolved once and for all.”
