News - Norwood - It had a summer carnival-like feel with plenty to keep families happy and active at a community fund raiser hosted by Norwood’s Cornergate Foodland in support of local school breakfast programs.

It was an impressive display of community engagement in aid of a program that plays a vital role in all three of Norwood’s schools. “This is absolutely amazing,� said Chris McCarthy, school community co-ordinator for the Food for Kids Peterborough and County Student Nutrition Program which operates in 46 schools and with its 1,000-strong volunteer team serves over 11,000 meals a day.

In 2012-2013 alone it served 1.9 million healthy breakfasts and snacks.

McCarthy was blown away by the way people and businesses like Norwood Foodland rallied around the volunteer program which is a key part of the township’s two elementary schools and high school. “It takes a community to run a breakfast program, not only the volunteers but also the community running it together,� she told The Independent. “I love to see this. This is fantastic because it is also part of local food week so what a great way to celebrate local food and the local community.�

nutrition programs. There are at least 180 local partners who donate food, funding, supplies, space or other things to the program. “It is such a great program for students,� says McCarthy.

With so many students in Asphodel-Norwood bused into their schools some arrive without having a complete breakfast for one reason or another or they’ve eaten hours earlier. “Now they know they can get good nutritious food when they arrive at school,� says McCarthy. “All our programs feature fresh produce every day, this is something students are getting every day, fresh fruits and vegetables,� she said. “One of the initiatives with Food for Kids is [increasing] the amount of local food and we’ve partnered with the YWCA and they’ve partnered with farmers and we’ve brought local produce into schools.� “You never get enough in your funding and we’re just glad to help out,� Foodland owner Chad Jolicoeur added. “There’s a big need; it’s just really great to be able to put on an event like this and hope we raise a lot of money, it goes to the kids and a great cause.� “The partnership between the store and the community has always been there, it’s very important that we work together,� he said.

News - Campbellford - Five years and several studies later, with hundreds of thousands of additional dollars having been spent on consultants, Trent Hills council has once again voted in favour of a river crossing being built between Alma and Second Street.

Unlike in 2009, Mayor Hector Macmillan didn’t need to break a 3 - 3 tie

with his vote last week; council members overwhelmingly supported the Alma-Second bridge option recommended by IBI Group, with only Councillor Kim MacNeil being opposed.

She tried to persuade council to hold off making a decision, saying the environmental assessment process begun by other consultants and ďŹ nished by IBI contained “faultyâ€? premises, “some

of which were unsupported or at least not yet defensible,� based on the data provided.

MacNeil cast doubt on trafďŹ c and population growth projections as well as tcost estimates for the project, and said more information was needed, some of which could be provided through the transportation study Northumberland County is to undertake this year.

As the owner of Campbellford’s main bridge that will need to be replaced in 30 to 35 years, the county will be the one to decide whether to go along with a two-lane Alma-Second crossing or a modiďŹ ed three-lane structure that’s also been proposed, at the current location.

It was the county who asked

for a closer look at the feasibility of building a second bridge where one now stands after opposition was raised to the support Trent Hills had given the alternative originally.

The matter will be on county’s agenda next week when it meets June 18.

Alnwick-Haldimand councillor Sandra Walls seeks same role in Trent Hills

By John Campbell

News - Trent Hills - Currently a councillor in Alnwick-Haldimand, Sandra Walls hopes to continue in municipal politics after the election in the fall—but as a representative for Ward 2 (Percy) on Trent Hills council.

A change in address has necessitated the change. Walls moved from Grafton to Warkworth last December to be closer to her children and grandchildren.

She lived in the village for 13 years, after moving there from Whitby in 1989 to raise her two daughters.

The retired Canada Post employee who currently operates a residential cleaning business said she likes being a councillor—“I really do enjoy it”— and wants to continue in that role in her new place of residence.

“This is where I’m going to retire,” she said, so she has an interest in being “a part of making the community a good place” to live.

Her first step was to join the Warkworth Community Service Club.

Her goals are to “support the enhancement of Warkworth’s Main Street, reinforce sources of tourism,

promote heritage protection, encourage good stewardship of both the land and the environment, [and] advocate for the continued success of our local farming operations.”

Walls said having a woman on council “is paramount in that women represent at least half the population” and she recognizes “the importance of respect and communications” between council members, staff and residents.

Not everyone will agree with what council decides but if you “make all the information available” that was

used to reach a conclusion, people “can at least understand why you’ve made the decision,” she said.

In order to complete her current term in office, Walls rented a place in Alnwick-Haldimand.

As a member of its council, Walls has been heavily involved in organizing community events, such as the Polar Bear Plunge and the Canada Day and Santa Claus parades.

“It’s sad to leave some of those projects behind … that I started,” she said, “but I’ll just do the same thing here” and come up with new projects

“I’m pretty big on trying to think of unique ideas to stimulate fund raising,” to avoid having to use tax dollars, she said.

Walls described herself as “a hard worker … a roll-up-your-sleeves kind” of councillor who lets “staff do their job’” and doesn’t “micro-manage” which “demeans what they do.”

Having lived outside Warkworth for a time and then returned has given her “a broader sense of what’s going on in the county as a whole and where we fit in as Trent Hills,” she said.

Local school breakfast programs get big boost

Continued from page 1

Paul Catholic Elementary School, said she was “astounded� by the Foodland fundraising gesture. “The support we’ve had from Chad at Foodland is unmatched,� Graham said.

While they receive financial and material support from Food for Kids, Graham says the “need far surpasses the funding that’s available so we have to depend more now on outsourcing our funds.�

She praised Food for Kids. “Having a source of funding like this available to us helps ensure that no child in the community would go hungry.�

Local organizations like the Lions, Lioness, Catholic Women’s League and IODE also chip in, Graham said.

They feed 200 students a day at St. Paul with a hot meal breakfast, nutritional snacks and lunch for students who have forgotten them. “It’s 25 per cent more expensive to eat David Moore whips up some candy floss during the well-attended family healthy and we’re trying to make sure kids carnival hosted by Norwood Cornergate Foodland to help raise funds for breakfast programs in all three of Norwood’s schools.

Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation supports the Municipality of Trent Hills goal to raise $1 Million for new recreational projects

Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan strongly argued in favour of another crossing over the Trent River in Campbellford being built between Alma and Second streets. Photo: John Campbell

second bridge,� said Crate, who represents the village of Hastings, which is scheduled to have its lone crossing, a swing bridge, closed to traffic next winter while a new one is put in place. “It’s going to devastate that community,� he said, and the same would happen to downtown Campbellford during construction, if a second bridge were to be built beside the existing one and then the main

bridge was later replaced at the end of its service life.

Jones said the bridge issue, like the river itself, has divided the town and “is really holding this community hostage.â€? The recommended option “provides a great opportunityâ€? for the chamber of commerce, BIA and the municipality to work together “to form a new vision of Campbellford,â€? which has been “stuck in a rut ‌ for a long time.â€?

MacNeil told council and roughly 80 audience members that “the jury is still out� on whether a second bridge is needed to handle traffic flow through the downtown, because a “key piece of information is missing�— what are the municipality’s plans for future development in Campbellford.

Mayor Hector Macmillan and Councillors Bill Thompson and Rosemary Kelleher-MacLennan voted the same way as they did in 2009, for the Second-Alma bridge.

Macmillan offered the most comprehensive argument in favour of this alternative.

He pointed out that twinning the bridge, because of the proposed design, would actually remove use of a virtual centre lane that fire trucks and ambulances now have available to cross the river in an emergency; eliminating that is “a risk we can’t afford to take,� he said. “To lose that centre lane is the primary reason I will not support the three-lane corridor.�

It’s “a very expensive Band-Aid [that carries] a lot of risks� with no guarantee that it’s even “constructible� because of its “complicated design,� Macmillan said.

A bridge between Alma and Second, on the other hand, wouldn’t require the elimination of 20 to 40 parking spots downtown.

More important, it would remove trucks and through traffic from the downtown core “so people can stop being injured,� even killed, in that corridor, as happened to his sister-in-law, he said, his voice rising.

Macmillan said “the best thing� that could ever happen in Campbellford is that it “get another bridge� and the only place it can be built� is where engineers have recommended. “It makes me sick the dollars we have spent on consulting fees,� said KelleherMacLennan who insisted a decision be made that night. “What we have to do is look at more of the positive and not the negative.�

Councillor Gene Brahaney voted against the option the first time around but not last week, although he said he still had “a lot of sensitivity� for the residents who would be impacted by a bridge that would create a major transportation corridor through a residential neighbourhood. “There’s been a lot of verbal diarrhea on both sides of the question here,� he said.

Deputy-mayor Bob Crate and Councillor Meirion Jones, who weren’t on council when the bridge issue was raised the first time, also supported building a second river crossing 400 metres south of the existing span. “I would give my eye teeth to have a

Why is the Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) Foundation partnering in Flourish - The Trent Hills Wellness Campaign – specifically the plans to build a new multi-use Recreation Facility in Campbellford?

The CMH Foundation supports the Flourish Campaign for many reasons, most importantly improving year-round access to programs & services that provide opportunities to be physically active. Chief of Staff Dr. Celeste Collins puts it best. “As an advocate for patient health, it is always a concern for me that my advice is practical.

There is simply no point in asking people to do the impossible and holding up an ideal that is non-existent. The end product envisioned by this Campaign makes healthy living possible and will put the necessary tools to that end within reach of everyone in our community. Science and research have proven many times over that exercise improves our health, in many different ways, and prolongs our lives.

Unfortunately, we often find that those who need the exercise most are physically unable to do it as there are not enough options available. The goal of the Flourish Campaign is to provide members of this community with options. It is worthy of our effort and finances; and a worthy legacy to the next generation.� – Dr. Celeste Collins, CMH Chief of Staff.

Flourish, The Trent Hills Wellness Campaign is an initiative that will contribute to the overall health, wellness and development of our community. This is an exciting and unprecedented venture that will enshrine wellness for all as a community priority in Trent Hills. The Flourish Campaign is a partnership between the Municipality of Trent Hills, the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation and the Campbellford/Seymour Community Foundation with a combined goal to raise $7 million. www.flourishcampaign.ca www.facebook.com/flourishcampaign 705-653-2005

Art for the environment’s sake Cruikshank after signing up; they discussed the theme and then took on the task of coming up with designs for the 16 garbage cans; one of the barrels was set aside for primary students to stamp their handprints on it. “We promised to be here,� said Asselstine. “The descriptive paintings they are putting on are amazing,� she said. “They’re really good little artists.

They’ve put a lot of thought into it.

They’re using our litterbug theme of

don’t litter our waterways, don’t litter our village.� “These guys are very passionate. A couple of the students came to council with us.�

Asselstine recently appeared before Trent Hills Council to talk about the littering situation in Hastings and says she’s still waiting to see some action on the municipality’s part, particularly lids on garbage cans and better placement of cans.

That being said, Asselstine notes that

Gabrielle Vaillancourt, in Grade 7 at Hastings Public School, paints a garbage bin during a volunteer work bee last week at the school. The colourful barrels will be placed around the village for would-be litterbugs to use.

News - Hastings - It’s art for the environment’s sake.

Hastings Public School’s garbage barrel painting work-bee was a festival of colour and creativity but it was most of all a “be kind to the environment� message wrapped up in a vivid package.

Twenty-three students in Grades 4 to 7 volunteered for the initiative organized by Sarah Cruikshank and supported by local environmental activists Shirley Asselstine and Wendy Baggs, who had visited the school recently and talked about their anti-littering

campaign. “It’s awesome. The quality is excellent,� Cruikshank said in an interview. “They are putting their art into it and all those kids doing it chose to do it.�

The young artists are “passionate about what they’re doing and what it represents,� she said.

It’s art but it’s also an environmental message, Cruikshank added. “It’s a lot of good things mixed into one. I’m proud of them.�

Most of the students involved in the project are from the HPS Leadership Hanna Wright, in Grade 7 at Hastings Public School was one of 23 students involved. Photo: Bill Freeman Group and met with

Megan Edwards, a Grade 6 student at Hastings Public School, added a Sesame Street touch to the colourful garbage can she painted. Photo: Bill Freeman

people seem to be a “little more mindful. “I think they know that people are watching them and what they’re doing with household garbage.�

She and Baggs do a weekly “walkabout� and Asselstine says the amount of fishing litter has decreased somewhat. “It seems like there’s less garbage along the shorelines which we’re really happy about so we keep plodding around, slowly and steady.�

The youth at HPS understand what she and Baggs are talking about and they take “pride� in their detailed work which will enhance the village’s downtown core.

She hopes some of the barrels end up on the bridge. “That’s where they need to be. They will be seen on the bridge by passersby and they’ll say ‘this town is really working together.’�

The paint and barrels were donated by the municipality.

Township will review ball park field conditions

By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - There will be no reduction in the $20-per-game fee charged to the Havelock Mixed Baseball League but council has asked staff to bring back a report on the condition of the grounds at the George Street ball park.

In a letter to council, the league sought a decrease in a fee that hasn’t changed in 14 years but also raised concerns about conditions in the infield and outfield. “We are not trying to be difficult as an organization but would like for all players to be as safe as possible to enjoy a good ball year,� league treasurer Shelley Vandenberg wrote. She also

asked council to consider a “more reasonable� per-game fee or a flat rate for the entire season.

The organization says Marmora charges $12 per game and Norwood $972 for a season which includes lining the diamond and placement of bases.

The Havelock Mixed league plays three games a week and does its own lining. “The infield is in poor condition and the outfield is just as bad,� says Vandenberg. “There are dips in the outfield that do pose a tripping hazard for players trying to field a ball.� “If there are issues that somebody could get hurt we need to look at that for sure,� Mayor Ron Gerow said. “Right

now we don’t have money in the budget to deal with that. The first step would be to get a report.�

Any field work, other than rolling, would have to wait until late fall because major repairs would prevent any kind of play, said Councillor Jim Martin. “It would be substantial if council opted to make any levelling [in the outfield] or the infield for that matter,� treasurer Val Nesbitt said. “To my knowledge it [field repairs] was not put into any budget forecast,� she said. “I know they do some work on the infield on an annual basis but there are no notations as far as I know about any repairs to the outfield.�

“If it’s significant work, it’s significant dollars,� Gerow agreed, saying he’d like to see a plan with recommendations from staff. “I think we have to look at this,� he said.

Nesbitt says the fee has remained the same for 14 years. “Where do you get entertainment for $1?� asked Councillor Barry Pomeroy.

Twenty players at a game works out to $1 each.

Mayor Gerow says he appreciates that all organizations are “trying to find ways financially� to reduce costs.

He also said it was probably time for council to “take a hard look at

our policies of usage [and] the cost associated with all of these things. “We did ask the soccer club for a substantial amount of money to help develop the fields. I know that the diamond is a little different because it is part of our park [but] down the road we’re going to have to look at these policies so there’s some consistency. As far as the ball field, I didn’t know there were issues there of a substantive nature until I read the letter.�

Martin suggested inviting the league to talk to council following their season to give a “wrap up of how things went.� “It would help us.�

Schoolhouse Gardens one of many venues in the Doors Open event

By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford/Warkworth Doors Open, a salute to Northumberland’s Heritage, featured 20 cultural and historic venues such as theatres, gardens, churches, mills and even a jail, all of which opened to the public for free.

In Trent Hills Dennis Gebhardt and Tom Harris, welcomed visitors to their home in the country, a sanctuary known as Schoolhouse Gardens, located just outside Warkworth.

Schoolhouse #6 was built circa 1850, won a beautification award in 1942 and closed in 1961. Since 1987 Gebhardt and Harris have transformed the fouracre site and created manicured gardens featuring award-winning peonies, day lilies, and hostas, herb gardens and a vegetable patch and much much more.

Schoolhouse Gardens has been showcased in the 2010 book Private Gardens of Northumberland.

The couple has opened their gardens before to host fund-raising tours to raise money for The Bridge Hospice.

As well in Trent Hills, Westben Arts Festival Theatre opened its doors and invited visitors and those familiar with the outdoor site to stop by and view the primary performance venue, a custombuilt, 400-seat timber-frame barn.

Located just outside Campbellford, the performances attract a loyal audience throughout the summer.

On sunny days from June to August massive walls and doors roll away allowing concerts and performances to fill the surrounding hillsides with the sounds of music from bands, orches-

tras, choirs, world-renowned soloists and more.

In Hastings St. George’s Anglican Church, an example of “Arts and Crafts architecture” featuring stained glass windows by the Robert McCausland Ltd. studios in Toronto, (the oldest stained glass company in the western hemisphere) opened its doors during the Doors Open weekend, June 7 and 8.

The present church was built in 1908 to replace an earlier 1862 frame building.

The Doors Open concept was a simple one: buildings of architectural and historical significance, many of which are not normally open to the public, opened their doors to visitors for a day or the weekend.

Many provided guided tours, special

exhibits, displays or performances.

“This year’s event focused on four new themes,” said Rick Brooks, chair of Doors Open Northumberland.

“Visitors can discover Northumberland’s strong industrial heritage; celebrate the diverse architectural styles of select churches; experience how our early settlers lived; and tour sites that pay tribute to legendary Canadians who served during World War I.” From Port Hope to Grafton, to Cobourg and Brighton, the weekend venues provided plenty for visitors and locals to see.

The Doors Open Northumberland event was a result of collaboration between Northumberland County’s tourism department and the Northumberland Heritage Alliance.

Schoolhouse Gardens was one of the venues open to visitors during the recent Doors Open Northumberland weekend. One of the owners, Tom Harris, spent time with Samantha and Alan Bland of Campbellford who dropped in to see Schoolhouse #6 which was built circa 1850 and the manicured gardens created by Harris and his partner Dennis Gebhardt.

a river crossing “is a monumental and historical blunder for the future of Campbellford.” A week earlier the heritage committee restated its position that the proposed location “will have a severe detrimental effect on the heritage character of a historic residential neighbourhood.”

Conacher said a bridge there will “forever alter people’s perception of Campbellford as a town that cares about its heritage” and it runs counter to policies set out in the municipality’s own official plan.

Lawyer Paul Smith said “there’s no guarantee” that Campbellford will get a second bridge, after one is built at Second and Alma within ten years and it comes time to replace the existing span in 30 or so years.

“This is a very serious matter,” he said. “We will probably only have one bridge location.”

If another one is needed in future it will likely be outside town, he said.

The lone person to speak in favour of the recommended option, Bonnie Wilson, brought with her a copy of the

Our neighbour and a friend at work just changed their furnace and got an A/C unit installed through an outfit called Access HVAC.. We both heard that name before. My husband and I decided that it was time...time for a NEW Heating System and if the price is right, let’s get an A/C unit in our home as well. We called Access HVAC out of Belleville. Boy! Did we get a deal; not only did we get an efficient Furnace, we also arranged to get the A/C unit at half price and they offered us a choice of a WiFI Thermostat, Humidifier or a Media Air Filter for FREE. YES, WE SAID FREE. Just the **WiFi Thermostat is worth $399. Imagine, we now can actually monitor our system using our cell phone; even when we are down south during the winter or from the cottage.

No monitoring fee. Furthermore, we even qualified for another $650 “OPA” rebate program and the manufacturer’s rebate up to $1,350. That’s another savings of $2,000 as well as up to $1,650 for the A/C Unit. The system is AMAZING.

“to conserve community heritage will ensure a lasting legacy for future generations.”

She expressed concern that the environmental process has failed to take into account that “the long-term implications are the strangulation of the downtown of Campbellford hemmed in by two bridges and lost businesses.”

Janice Bell, a contractor who specializes in historic renovations and the recipient of a civic award for architectural conservation, warned of the detrimental impact construction activity and heavy vehicular traffic could have on historic homes along the Alma-Second transportation corridor.

She urged council members to turn down the consultants’ recommendation “or you are voting in favour of condemning our heritage homes to ruin.”

Des Conacher, a member of Trent Hills Heritage Advisory Committee, submitted his resignation, saying council’s “erroneous choice” for

rejected Boyd’s assertion a bypass be built outside town, saying no realistic option has emerged in more than six years of study.

“If you have a viable location that you can prove will work outside of town, by all means I will support it and I would encourage you to send it to Northumberland County so that they can be made aware of it,” he said.

BIA president Tom Kerr said council has in its grasp “the catalyst that could revitalize the entire downtown Campbellford yet you would rather preserve buildings that the owners want to sell and destroy a neighbourhood that wants to stay alive.”

Most merchants want the current bridge location improved and expanded, he said.

because of traffic diversion and warned the creation of two shopping areas “is not in the best interest of the business community.”

Members, according to a survey the chamber conducted, also said business development along Second and Alma “would detract from filling the spaces that are already available in Campbellford”—12 in the downtown area alone.

Twinning the bridge, on the other hand, “will spark a downtown renewal that will engage the business community,” Hamilton said.

Local businessman Dwight Boyd, who’s running for council, said “it is a fact” that wherever a large bridge lands “the area around it becomes slummerized or run down.”

This will create “two shabby areas” in Campbellford, with empty storefronts and fewer merchants around, “struggling to survive because we put a truck bypass through a heritage residential community,” he said.

It would sound “a death knell for the downtown corridor and indeed ultimately Campbellford as a whole.”

News - Campbellford - Opposition to a bridge being built over the Trent River at Alma and Second Streets has been consistent and insistent throughout the public phase of the environmental assessment process.

When the environmental study report’s recommendation came up for a vote at council June 3, opponents to the preferred alternative were once again out in full force to deliver an array of arguments against the consultants’ recommendation the river crossing be at Alma and Second Streets.

Nine of the ten delegations spoke against the proposal, saying the alternative, a modified three-lane bridge downtown where the current structure stands, makes more sense.

Jeff Hamilton, president of the Trent Hills and District Chamber of Commerce, said most of the organization’s members fear a loss of business

Kids and cops enjoy a day of fishing

Photo: Sue Dickens

By Sue Dickens

Sports - Campbellford - A hook, line and sinker was all that was needed at the annual Seymour Family Fishing Day … and maybe a bobber and worm or two.

“We had about 100 people, adults and children, here on Sunday. It was a beautiful day for fishing. Twelve

fishing rod and reel kits were given away and a few rainbow trout were caught along with lots of rock bass,” said Marilyn Bucholtz, communication and outreach coordinator for Lower Trent Conservation which hosted the outdoor event at the Seymour Conservation area.

The quarry had been

the water as well, hoping to catch the “big one.”

He was there with his mom Cyndi. “We’ve been coming here for about five years,” she said.

“Caleb just loves to fish; we fish all over the area.

When I was younger we used to swim here, we had a big raft,” she added.

“It’s fun. You get to catch a bunch of fish,” said her son while he concentrated on the bobber which was disappearing from view as a fish grabbed the worm on the hook at the end of his line.

“So far we’re just catching some little ones,” he commented casually.

“We caught a whole bunch last year,” he added, as he reeled in the line to make sure his bait was still there.

“We brought two dozen worms, so we’ll have plenty.”

According to Bob Izumi, chair of Fishing Forever, there is nothing that puts a smile on a kid’s face faster than catching a fish. “That’s why I love to create opportunities for children and families to go fishing,” states Izumi.

“Fishing is one of the very best ways for parents and other adults to establish productive and healthy relationships with children.”

(for “her notable achievement and commitment” to the vision, mission and values of Girl Guides of Canada).

Russell was the lone Ranger of Warkworth Guiding for three years, as there was no other girl in her unit. She worked with a Guide leader by email and telephone to complete projects and she helped out the Brownie unit as a junior leader.

There were 17 girls in Brownies, the largest of the five units; Sparks had three, Guides eight and Pathfinders two.

Girls who volunteered at the sugar bush for the Warkworth Maple Syrup Festival received certificates. Those who sold seven or more cases of cookies were also recognized.

There was a short presentation where girls advanced to the next level of Guiding.

Maddi, age five, and her dad, Damien, enjoyed a day together fishing at the annual Seymour Family Fishing Day. This was their first time at the event and their first time fishing. Northumberland OPP Auxiliary Constable Drew Sanderson, from Cobourg added his own words of encouragement.

stocked with 500 rainbow trout provided by the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) - Peterborough District Lower Trent Conservation joined forces again this year with the Kids, Cops and Canadian Tire program.

“Canadian Tire donated the prizes, rods and reel kits for our draws,” said Bucholtz.

Bob Izumi, host of the Real Fishing Show, created this program in partnership with the Police Association of Ontario and Canadian Tire to encourage youngsters to enjoy the benefits of recreational fishing. The event is sponsored by Izumi’s Fishing Forever, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to funding worthwhile fishing, conservation and education projects.

“The Ontario Police Association gets involved with this to bridge that gap between the officers and youth and bring them together in a fun and enjoyable environment,” said Bucholtz.

“The purpose of the program is to provide opportunities for young people to get out and fish,” she added.

And that’s just what Maddi, age five, did with her dad, Damien, by her side.

“We’re from Campbellford and this is our first time here and our first time fishing,” he said.

“I want to catch some fish,” said his daughter as she raised her rod and cast her fishing line and gear into the quarry where the day-long event was held.

“I only saw one fish and it swam away,” she added with a grin.

Auxiliary Constable Drew Sanderson, from Cobourg, was nearby adding his words of encouragement.

Vladimir Putin in Normandy

Editorial – The presence of President Vladimir Putin on the Normandy beaches on the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings was planned long before the current conflict over Ukraine, but it is a useful reminder of the fact that Russia is not some Asiatic tyranny on Europe’s eastern borders. It is a European country that has played a major role in the continent’s affairs for centuries.

Not only were the Russians on the same Gwynne Dyer side as the “Western” allies in the Second World War, they did most of the heavy lifting in the war against Nazi Germany, and they paid by far the highest price.

While 850,000 American, British and Canadian troops were landing on the French coast in June of 1944, six million soldiers of the Soviet army were fighting massive battles with the German army in eastern Europe. The land war on the Eastern Front was already three years old, and by June of 1944 the Russians had won: the Germans had already begun the long retreat that ended above Hitler’s bunker in Berlin 11 months later.

The price the Russians paid for their victory over Nazi Germany was huge: at least 11 million military dead (compared to fewer than one million dead for the Western allies). No other country in history has lost so many soldiers, but in the end it was the Red Army that destroyed Hitler’s Wehrmacht: 80 percent of Germany’s six million military dead were killed on the Eastern Front.

The main strategic significance of the Normandy landings, therefore, was not the defeat of Germany, which was already assured. It was the fact that Moscow had to accept that Europe would be divided between the victors down the middle of Germany, rather than along some line further west that ran down the Franco-German border, or even down the English Channel.

President Putin, who began his career as a KGB agent working in Soviet-dominated East Germany, was certainly aware of the irony that he was commemorating a military operation whose main result was to contain Soviet power. And his presence reminded all the other participants that the Second World War was not really fought to defend democracy from tyranny.

Hitler never intended to conquer Britain, and was surprised when his armed forces overran France in 1940. He was certainly not out to “conquer the world”, a preposterous ambition for a country of only 80 million people. His real target was Russia: the “Jewish-Bolshevik” Soviet Union. And he couldn’t even

By Terry Bush

conquer that.

Unlike previous great-power wars, the two world wars had to be represented as moral crusades against evil because new wealth and technology turned them into total wars that required mass participation. If people are going to be asked to sacrifice vast numbers of their children in a war, they must be told that it has some higher purpose than the traditional one of settling disputes among the great powers.

The people who lived through the First World War were fed that lie, but we no longer believe it now. To a remarkable extent, the countries that fought on the Allied side in the Second World War still believe that it was a moral crusade, because Hitler was a very evil man.

So he was, but almost nobody in the countries that were fighting him knew about the death camps until the war was over.

Moreover, the country that was carrying the heaviest burden in the war against Nazi Germany was a monstrous tyranny led by Joseph Stalin, a man who certainly rivalled Hitler in terms of how many millions of people he murdered.

It seems churlish to insist that the Second World War was just another great-power conflict on the day when the last survivors of the generation who fought in it are gathering, probably for the last time, to honour those who died on the beaches of Normandy. But there is no other time when people will actually pause to listen to such an assertion, and it is important that they understand it.

If the world wars were moral crusades against evil, then our only hope of avoiding more such tragedies in the future (probably fought with nuclear weapons) would be to extinguish evil in the world. Whereas if they were actually traditional greatpower wars, lightly disguised, then we might hope to stop them just by changing the way that the international system works.

That was the real conclusion of the governments on the winning side in both world wars. It’s why they created the League of Nations after the first one, and the United Nations after the second. Both organizations were designed to break the cycle of great-power wars by criminalizing those who start wars and taking the profit out of victory (because nobody will ever recognise your conquests even if you win).

The League of Nations failed, as first attempts often do, but the United Nations did not. There has been no Third World War, and no great power has fought any other for the past 69 years.

Putin’s presence in Normandy was an embarrassment precisely because he broke the UN rules by forcibly annexing Crimea, but the enterprise is still, on the whole, a success. So far, so good.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

We might have to take the bridge Dear Editor, The narrowing of the Murray Canal bridge to one lane debate goes on and, unfortunately, it looks like we may be losing the battle. Our MP says that he’s looked under every rock to find the extra money required to pay for a two lane bridge, but it is extremely difficult in a government that has promised to balance the budget and where every department has been cut back ten percent. May I remind this MP that it was his government that put us into the deficit when they didn’t see the recession coming and they blew the surplus they inherited to prevent that from happening. Contrary to what we’re being told by the government, most economists say that the budget has already been balanced and all the government is doing now is building up a war chest so they can have a spending orgy just in time for next year’s election. Well, in our view, the election campaign has already started and we want the money to pay for the wider bridge NOW. I never thought that I’d say this, but it appears that what we need to get our government’s attention is a little bit of civil

disobedience. Therefore, I propose we attack and capture the bridge. We’ll march right up there with our card tables and folding chairs and, once we secure the area, we’ll hold one heck of a big Duplicate Bridge tournament. We can block off the approaches to the bridge with Larry’s Septic Tank Cleaning trucks and get the Canal Variety Chip Wagon to do the catering.

We’ll even make it a family affair and set up a mini fishing tournament for the kids. Businesses in the area like the Brighton Speedway and the Barcovan Golf Club will be approached and asked to donate prizes.

I predict that in no time at all we’ll be on CNN and, once we start to get international television coverage, our MP should be able to get the big guy’s attention. We all know the PM can’t resist a photo op no matter what the cost and, when he sees us on international television, he’ll just get his little butt down here with a great big cheque to pay for that double lane bridge.

Sometimes I just amaze myself with my problem solving abilities.

Editorial - After what seemed to be a longer than normal work week which included a day-long training session at our head office in Smiths Falls, I was really looking forward to a bit of downtime last weekend.

Alas, it just wasn’t to be.

I’m quite confident when I say others have probably had the same deluded thoughts that have crossed my mind recently. Those thoughts and rationalizations being, if I work like a crazy man now, I’ll get to take some time off later in the summer.

While one may consider this as forward thinking, it really isn’t. At the moment, many of us are busy firing up the lawnmowers and weed whackers trying to keep ahead of our rapidly growing grass. With muchneeded rain in the forecast, it’s good to be ahead of the game. In the back of my mind I know I’ll still be pushing that mower around the place come August. I just won’t be cutting much grass. Instead, I’ll be knocking the tops off the plantain and chicory that will be growing when the grass isn’t. And in the summer months, cutting the lawn will certainly be more difficult than it is now because I won’t be able to ascertain where I’ve cut and where I haven’t. Nothing more frustrating than realizing you’ve just covered the same ground you just mowed on the last lap and the one before that.

At the moment, the place looks pretty good ...except for the missing snow bars on the garage roof and smashed eavestrough courtesy of the spring thaw that released the snow and ice combo which came crashing down on my truck the day after we returned from our latest trip. That’s got to be fixed.

There’s a nice pile of wood waiting to be stacked by the side door and another by the side of the garage that is apt to eventually sprain someone’s ankle as they walk over it searching for things that turn out to be somewhere else. There are bushes to be pruned and shrubs to be planted, if we ever figure out what that shrub is on the west side of the front porch whose counterpart died on the east side two years ago.

So there’s always lots to do if you own your own place and your lot isn’t the size of a postage stamp.

My problem right now isn’t that I’m looking through rose-coloured glasses, it’s that I’m spending most of my time looking through mesh.

While people at work complain that blackflies are still making their kids’ lives miserable, we’ve moved past that in our little paradise north of seven. The mosquitoes are here in full force and the deerflies have quickly followed on their tails. On the plus side, we’re also overrun with dragonflies. Can’t say that we’ve ever had such a bumper crop. So while I walk around the perimeter of the grounds wearing my 20 buck Canadian Tire bug jacket, I’m training a crew of dragonflies to follow me around. Some of them stick pretty close by and I’ve developed a very close working relationship with a few of them. So close in fact that while cutting the lawn on Saturday, a couple saw fit to ride shotgun on my shoulders eliminating the need to screen in my head.

At one point, with hundreds buzzing around, I was even tempted to shed the bug jacket and my shirt, a definite no-no in these parts at this time of year. So while I know the bug jacket will still be a requirement when doing outside work for the next two months because I’m just so darned tasty, I’m really enjoying bragging about my dragonflies at work.

Nobody else seems to have many yet.

Which leads me to think that there actually may be a market for them down south of seven. I don’t know how I’ll catch them yet. Being kind of delicate, even one pound monofilament line would be overkill. While a spool of thread might work, I don’t think a lasso made of thread would throw very far and dragonflies are certainly quick. Most bugs end up as splats on the windshield but some dragonflies can easily get out of the way of a car travelling at 80 klicks.

So with that in mind, a butterfly net is pretty much the only way to go and even that would be iffy at best. Then I’d have to fit them with collars and leashes which of course you could remove once your new pets know their boundaries. So, I’m thinking, maybe 50 cents a dragonfly would be a pretty fair price for all the work I would have to do to fill even the smallest order. A dozen regular size for five bucks or a half dozen of the bigger black and white monsters that munch on deerflies for ten. The big ones would be much harder to catch and would require using myself as bait to lure in the deerflies and then the dragonflies.

And that process would require a capital investment making it more expensive. Without the bug jacket, I’d need some double-sided carpet tape to put on my hat and a tube of Tanglefoot to put on the tape. Deerflies always go for the highest point first on a person and you’d be surprised how many deerflies you can catch with a little Tanglefoot on your head. That advice is free. The dragonflies definitely won’t be.

Trails Day Festival a showcase for Breathing Forest

By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - Being included in local International Trail Festival celebrations has given Norwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s burgeoning Breathing Forest and Millpond trail system a welcome boost. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy with this,â&#x20AC;? said Terry Low, past chair of the Otonabee Region Conservation board and member of the Norwood Millpond Committee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s starting to unfold now that we have some work done,â&#x20AC;? Low told The Independent after guiding a group of Grade 8 students through the diverse trail system that wends its way through the Norwood Conservation Area north of the village; the property is situated above a series of underground caves and connected to an ancient esker, the bed of a river that flowed along the bottom of a kilometre-thick span of ice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are very unique things here,â&#x20AC;? added Ron Scott, tour organizer and the man responsible for introducing the Breathing Forest program which has rejuvenated a pine stand that acts as one gateway to the trail system. Grade 5 students from St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Catholic Elementary School have adopted trees in the forest with Norwood District High School forestry students providing woodlot management.

Scott is also a former conservation authority and foundation board chair honoured for his environmental stewardship work at the site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can see the interest from this age group,â&#x20AC;? Scott said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think that will develop, especially if they become trail guides and leaders of groups up here.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The base trail is very easy,â&#x20AC;? says Scott. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The big thing will be accessibility, that base trail is what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really hoping for.â&#x20AC;?

The Millpond Committee has plans for educational signage, a picnic area near a stunning lookout point, and trail grooming for the base trail to allow wheelchair access. Additional trails branch off the main path, the most challenging takes hikers to a â&#x20AC;&#x153;summitâ&#x20AC;? that provides a stunning view of the pond and village.

Scott believes the trail system probably started with the gravel trucks that took aggregate out of the area â&#x20AC;&#x153;and then people walking up and taking side trips. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been going on for 50 or 60 years.â&#x20AC;?

Both Scott and Low preach a gradual approach to trail development. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to blow it up until weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sure,â&#x20AC;? says Scott. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we can get this base trail going it will really help. We definitely donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to rush into it. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to put a big sign up saying â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;enter hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; until weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready. We want to gradually get people familiar with it.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got some groups that are really interested in cleaning this up,â&#x20AC;? says Low. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The rest is starting to materialize; we can actually see things being done.

I think that once we establish that first leg [to the picnic area] that will draw more interest from the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a good promotion here with the kids,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got the next generation coming along with this.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to get better. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on the right track.

Splashpad committee chair and Donegal Fiddler Ron Scott says the aim is to make the evenings a “complete experience” for all ages.

This year’s ten-show series kicks off June 17 with the alwayspopular Donegal Fiddlers Orchestra and will be followed on June 24 by Millbrook’s delightfully folk-funky Relic’s Boat which turned in a bravura performance last year serving up everything

from George Gershwin and Gord Downie to traditional nineteenth century Canadiana.

The Canada Day show will begin at 4 p.m. with a variety of activities before high-energy local band Candy Mountain hits the stage at 6:30 p.m. The evening will end with the Asphodel-Norwood Fire and Rescue Service’s traditional July 1 fireworks extravaganza.

News - Peterborough - Students from local elementary schools immersed themselves in the many sides of water during the 13th annual Children’s Water Festival at the Riverview Park and Zoo in Peterborough.

The two-day festival drew 1,400 students in Grades 2 to 5 from 24 schools in Peterborough city and county and beyond who had a chance to explore 34 interactive learning stations.

“The Children’s Water Festival helps foster increased awareness and healthy attitudes in our youth about our most precious resource, water,” organizing committee chair Patricia Skopelianos said.

With the 13th festival, Skopelianos says they would have reached more than 17,000 children from across the area since its launch in 2001.

Through a series of hands-on activity centres students explored the concepts of water conservation, water attitudes, technology, protection and science. Popular stations like Otterly Amazing, Inspector H20, Tapping the Source and Royal Flush were set up throughout the grounds of the park and zoo.

Peterborough’s Children’s Water Festival is one of a network of 26 festivals that will take place across Ontario this year, says Skopelianos.

“We are very fortunate to have tremendous community support for the festival and each year we take some time during the event to thank the many businesses and organizations who help make this festival a reality,” she said.

In 2014, 37 business, agencies and organizations made a financial or inkind donation to the Children’s Water Festival.

Member agencies of the Peterborough Children’s Water Festival organizing committee include Peterborough Utilities Commission, Riverview Park and Zoo, the City of Peterborough, Green-up, Otonabee Conservation, Trent University and the Ontario Water Power Association.

The Peterborough Children’s Water Festival is a member of the Children’s Water Education Council.

Debbie Drummond takes the stage July 29 and you can be certain there will be a generous helping of Patsy Cline on the musical menu.

Country Cousins, Ken Church and his buddy Everett Chamberlain, will deliver some real old time country music on August 5.

The Cat Sass Showcase was a big hit last year and returns August 12 with its offering of outstanding local performers from their popular open microphone nights. And like last year, the concert will also feature a savoury corn roast.

Tim’s Camp Day a triumph in Havelock

By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - Two local youngsters will get the camp experience of a lifetime thanks to Camp Day supporters who flocked to Tim Hortons in Havelock last week.

Donations, bids on some fabulous silent auction items and other contributions all added up to nearly $8,000 in a campaign that never fails to amaze organizers who enjoy the fun and games but know that helping kids is the big pay-off.

“It’s a day of fun. A day to help kids do something they’ve never been able to do before,” said Tim Hortons staffer Christine Ferguson, one of the driving forces behind the annual Camp Day

extravaganza in Havelock.

The children will attend one of the Tim Horton Foundation summer camps.

“We pull together as a team and the community does so much,” said Ferguson who booked a day of work so she could volunteer at the event.

The festivities included a dunk tank, a pie-in-the-face throw, a silent auction that included four Havelock Country Jamboree tickets, Timbit races, a sucker pull, balloon pop and drive-through window washing courtesy of Grade 8 volunteers from Havelock Belmont Public School.

“Like no other, this township is a community that drives everything,” restaurant owner Chris Smith said. “It goes

above and beyond each and every year. We’re very lucky, very fortunate to be here.”

Camp Day is a “wonderful opportunity to help out the community and help out two local children,” Smith said.

“The nice part is that it just breathes vibrancy into the restaurant and into the community.”

Smith was one of the dunk tank victims and also took a pie in the face for the cause.

“It’s really nice to see the volunteers come out; a number of people put in a ton of effort and they do this every year. It’s those people who make the big difference,” he said.

“This is one of the highlights for the team here every year, they drive this and they look forward to it. It’s just great to see people pulling together donating time, money and material.”

Firefighters donate to emergency fund

By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Donations to the Campbellford-Seymour Emergency and Disaster Fund are heating up once more with the recent presentation of a $5,700 cheque by the Campbellford-Seymour Firefighters Association.

“Since 1989, we’ve been looking after this fund,” said Paula Meier who recalls starting the fund after a fire in a building on the corner of Bridge Street across from Old Mill Park destroyed apartments.

She was with a group of residents who had gathered in the park and suggested they collect donations to help those affected by the blaze.

“There were twenty people or so who lost their apartments,” she commented.

“So we canvassed people that night and they gave us $1,400 so we decided why not make this an actual fund so we gave all the money away to those who needed it and after that people who had heard about that nasty fire started

sending their cheques to us … so we had enough to start a fund,” she explained.

Over the years the fund has been used for many worthwhile causes with oversight from the disaster fund committee which includes Meier, Cathy Redden and Kim Blake.

Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake is consulted before any funds are dispersed.

The money is raised each year by the firefighters, their families and friends with a bridge toll, car wash and barbecue.

“The Sharpe’s boys [owners of Sharpe’s Food Market] sponsor all the foods and condiments every year,” said Chief Blake, after the cheque presentation.

The Sharpes were among those gathered in the park the day of that fateful fire in 1989.

“We like to work with the volunteer fire department, they are a wonderful organization,” Steve Sharpe told the Trent Hills Independent.

“What we do is provide them with product and they add the

sweat equity and prepare it and cook it for their fund-raising barbecue … they add value to it,” he explained.

“It’s a way for us to work with the fire department,” he added.

Meier estimates there is about $51,000 in the fund right now.

“The amount we have managed to accumulate, while it sounds healthy, it’s not huge. If we had a flood [like the disastrous flood of 2008] it would go very quickly to the community,” she said.

“If somebody has a fire Kim would give me a call and so if we needed to we would put the people up in a local motel, buy new clothes for them, whatever they needed,” she added.

“Giant Tiger has been awesome doubling what we buy,” she noted.

Chief Blake pointed out that they didn’t have to use a lot of the fund this year, “which is a really good thing.”

On average $5,000 to $6,000 is raised annually by the firefighters.

Lioness Club’s giant yard sale a popular fund-raiser Just ask one of the charter members, Marilyn Pollock. “It’s been going on for about 40 years,” she said.

The club itself was started 47 years ago and several years after that the members decided to hold a “toy and book” sale, to raise money. The event morphed into a yard sale, then, at Pollock’s suggestion, it was moved from a number of downtown venues to the Lions Club Park on the Trent River where it is has remained ever since.

From homemade baking to Christmas decorations to plants, lamps, crafts, children’s toys, sports equipment, books and more, the tables were filled with items for the sale.

Early bird yard sale enthusiast Diane Mack drove from Havelock to check out the deals. “I come here every year to support the Lioness Club,” she said.

“I enjoy garden sales and yard sales; it’s where you find the bargains,” she added with a grin, before moving on to the next table.

Carol Greven, a Lioness member, who had just finished pricing some of the items, was nearby, helping to set up.

She chaired the event this year. More LiFay Thompson, left, and Linda Sallans joined the many yard sale oness members helped keep things runenthusiasts. Maureen Dikun of the Lioness Club was one of the ning smoothly.

It was just one of the many interesting items for sale which had everything from this birdhouse to homemade baking and more: from left, charter member Maureen Dikun; Lioness Club President Jan Bastedo; and charter member Marilyn Pollock.

were among the many yard sale enthusiasts who arrived early to get the best deals.

“I live just around the corner and come here a lot. It’s a great sale, a big one and I love it,” she said. “Look we found plants, gloves, a planter and more,” she said with excitement.

The Lioness Club has about 22 members now who raise money for the community. They have donated to the Flourish campaign and supported many other projects.

“We support a lot of the other clubs,” commented Bastedo.

“We also give emergency funds to all of the schools. If there are children in need they will approach us and say this youngster needs winter clothing or eyeglasses, whatever,” she explained.

The Campbellford Lions Club members were on site as well to help with any heaving lifting and to sell their rain barrels.

The giant yard sale raises about $800 annually.

News - Norwood - The Norwood skateboard park has a new location at the community centre.

The skate park has been shifted from its spot next to the McNeil-Metcalfe Playground to a bigger site in the northeast corner of the park next to the gravel parking lot. The equipment is now in place on the brand-new concrete surface which should please skateboarders.

“It’s beautiful. They did an excellent job pouring the smooth concrete,” said Asphodel-Norwood CAO Joe van Koeverden. “The skateboarders are excited.”

The new splash pad is being built where the original skate park was located which produced a cost saving in terms of preparation work for the new water facility.

A decision to cut down the size of the out-building that will be part of the splashpad facility produced savings that allowed for the relocation of the skateboard park.

“We were able to fit it into our budget,” said van Koeverden.

“No trees were cut down in the process. It was just a spot that was available.”

Police find stolen car News - Trent Hills - After receiving a report of a stolen vehicle being driven in Campbellford June 14, Northumberland OPP located it on County Road 25 south of County Road 35 around 7 p.m.

Two males were inside the 2006 Hyundai Elantra that had been reported stolen in Lakefield June 1.

Jess John Brandon Moore, 19, Peterborough, was charged with possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000, failing to comply with a disposition, and four counts of failing to comply with a probation order.

A 17-year-old youth, who cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, was charged with possession of property obtained by crime.

makes for the perfect summer treat

Ice cream is synonymous with summer, when rising temperatures and vacations from school and work call for some refreshing celebration. Those who want to experiment with homemade ice cream may want to consider the following recipe for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dulce de Leche Ice Creamâ&#x20AC;? from Lou Seibert Pappasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ice Creams and Sorbetsâ&#x20AC;? (Chronicle Books).

Dulce de Leche Ice Cream Makes about 1 quart 2 cups half-and-half or milk 4 large egg yolks 1/2 cup sugar 12 ounces butterscotch chips, divided 1 cup heavy whipping cream 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Prepare a large bowl or pan of ice water.

In the top of a double boiler, heat the half-and-half over simmering water until steaming. In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks until blended, then whisk in the sugar. Whisk in about half of the hot half-and-half and pour the yolk mixture into the pan of half-and-half. Stir with a silicone spatula or spoon and cook over simmering water for about 8 minutes. Stir in 1 cup of the chips and continue stirring until blended in and the custard coats the back of the spatula, about 2 minutes more. Immediately place the custard pan in the ice bath and stir the custard occasionally until it cools to room temperature. Transfer to a container and stir in the cream and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, about 3 hours.

Freeze in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s instructions.

When the ice cream is almost frozen, add the remaining 1 cup chips and churn until blended in, about 15 seconds more. Transfer to a container, cover and freeze until firm, about 2 hours

Enjoy!

A natural consequence of our local Buyer’s Market (see Tip #3) is a smaller increase in real estate prices.

In a Seller’s market (e.g., much of the GTA), multiple offers on a listing are not uncommon, driving real estate prices up. In a Buyer’s market such as ours, listings remain on the market an average of 3 months before selling. This has a significant impact on the price of real estate; in the Brighton area, average property prices between 2012 and 2013 appreciated no more than 2% (Quinte Association of Realtors).

Remember to keep your local market in perspective when looking to sell; homes need to be competitively priced right from the start!

St. Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fabulous Doors Open host

By Bill Freeman

(Left) The beautiful interior of St. Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Anglican Church in Hastings has a deliberately ship-like feeling and it was on display over the weekend during Doors Open Northumberland. Photo: Bill Freeman (Bottom left) The majestic stained glass installation in the sacristy of St. Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Anglican Church was unveiled December 14, 1910, by the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Auxiliary in memory of member and benefactor Henry Johnston.

working,â&#x20AC;? she said. Morrison noted the stencilling which many people might not consider but â&#x20AC;&#x153;somebody handpainted and pointed all the brick to accent the architecture.â&#x20AC;?

That kind of â&#x20AC;&#x153;architectural detailingâ&#x20AC;? stands out but is â&#x20AC;&#x153;not over the top,â&#x20AC;?

Morrison said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done a great job of maintaining the church but their biggest problem is the problem with all churches, dwindling congregations and the fact that there are not enough young people.â&#x20AC;?

Our Lady of Mount Carmel Roman Catholic Church on Albert Street is also â&#x20AC;&#x153;very beautiful,â&#x20AC;? says Morrison, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but it is completely different; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very large and regal.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Apparently, St. Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s has something to do with the inside of a ship. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s symbolic and very beautiful.â&#x20AC;?

A building like St. Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s might be commonplace in Toronto, says Morrison, but â&#x20AC;&#x153;here weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very lucky to have the craftwork of this quality;

News - Hastings - The marvellous artistry and pioneer spirit of St. Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Anglican Church in Hastings made it a perfect Doors Open Northumberland host over the weekend. The elegant harp music provided by well-known Trent River trobairitz Angelica Ottewell was an added and graceful touch to the two-day showcase.

The 150-year-old church (the current building on Bridge Street was built in 1908) was one of 20 featured throughout Northumberland County. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It brings people inside [and] until you come inside you really donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand. It just looks like a nice sort of turn-of-the-century building but inside itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really exceptional,â&#x20AC;? said Hastings scholar-artist Skye Morrison, a member of the CampbellfordSeymour Heritage Committee and Hastings Historical Society which joined church members as Doors Open hosts in Hastings.

The original wood-framed church was built in 1862-1863 at the corner of Water and Church Street for the sum of $1,200 following the pattern of St. James in Roseneath. It was bricked over in 1877 using 17,000 bricks shipped in from Norwood.

Faced with mounting repairs, in 1906 the congregation decided to build a new church. Land was purchased from the Fowlds family for $250 with parishioner Henry Johnston making a substantial donation of $2,500 with the congregation adding a further $1,000. A deliberate effort was made to use as much material from the old church as possible.

The original St. Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s was demolished in April, 1908, and the â&#x20AC;&#x153;newâ&#x20AC;? St. Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s held its ďŹ rst service May 11, 1908.

Stained glass by McCausland of Toronto, the oldest continuously operating glass studio in North America, is a striking feature of the church with the ďŹ rst majestic triptych erected by the Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Auxiliary and unveiled December 4, 1910, in memory of Johnston.

Morrison called St. Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the â&#x20AC;&#x153;ďŹ&#x201A;agship church in this village celebrating the nineteenth century. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has the most appropriate scale and very beautiful examples of wood-

NDHS Try Day right on target News - Norwood - Norwood District High Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Try Day was right on target, literally.

The high schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s athletic department has added colourful Target Toss boards to its inventory of sports equipment thanks to a $700 Try Day grant from the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA).

Try Day is an OFSAA initiative that helps schools expand their array of athletic opportunities and often in non-traditional ways so that more students from all grades and abilities take part in active games. The goal is to attract students who are not already involved in school sports and those who are interested in trying nontraditional activities.

It also provides a leadership opportunity for students who are involved in the presentation and organization of the Try Day activity and that was

certainly the case at NDHS with students selecting the graphics that adorn the target toss board and helping to paint them on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something different and something I thought would be worthwhile,â&#x20AC;? athletics department head Linda Coons said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We play it in the summer; a lot of people play it at the cottage or the trailer.â&#x20AC;?

The boards are set on an incline and at a distance with partners at opposite ends attempting to toss a onepound corn-ďŹ lled beanbag into the circular target thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cut into the board. Much like horseshoes, teams square off side-by-side with three points scored if you put the bean bag into the hole. The game runs to a maximum of 21 points. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a little bit of ďŹ ne motor skills,â&#x20AC;? says Coons.

When the students ďŹ rst started throwing the bean bags â&#x20AC;&#x153;they were all over

News - Warkworth - Pieces of furniture that have lost their appeal over time are given new life in the hands of Justine Vikse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big demand for people who have a lot of pieces theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve acquired for sentimental reasons â&#x20AC;Ś [which] theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve relegated to the basement, because they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like the way that they look,â&#x20AC;? says the owner of Serendipitous Old Stuff. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to get rid of them because they were Grandmaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s or an auntâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s [so] theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll bring to me and I give a new pristine glory to them by redeďŹ ning them.â&#x20AC;?

As the acronym derived from the name of her business, S.O.S., suggests, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I rescue old furniture,â&#x20AC;? she says.

And with the â&#x20AC;&#x153;different lookâ&#x20AC;? the pieces are given, they rejoin the upstairs decor and â&#x20AC;&#x153;become a new focal point in the family. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love what I do, I have an absolute passion for it,â&#x20AC;?

Vikse says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like each piece speaks to me, as though I understand by looking at it how it should be reinvented, which is kind of fun.â&#x20AC;?

Her tools of transformation include a high-velocity, low-pressure sprayerâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x153;the equivalent of what you would

use to detail a car,â&#x20AC;? with a spray that is â&#x20AC;&#x153;much more delicate.â&#x20AC;?

Vikse also has numerous pieces of furniture at her store on Main Street, which held its grand opening May 29. She acquires the pieces at auctions, based on what she feels â&#x20AC;&#x153;the public generally wants or needs,â&#x20AC;? and which she believes â&#x20AC;&#x153;would be functional in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s households.â&#x20AC;?

They include dining room suites, buffets, hutches, end tables, beds, chests, and drawers.

Vikse specializes in Scandinavian and French country painted furniture, which she replicates from an earlier time with muted colours, etchings and â&#x20AC;&#x153;dirty wax,â&#x20AC;? an application she uses â&#x20AC;&#x153;to make it look as if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s old but new.â&#x20AC;?

The former psychotherapy counsellor began Serendipitous Old Stuff while living in Port Perry and when she decided to relocate, she chose Warkworth because of its reputation as â&#x20AC;&#x153;an artisan community.â&#x20AC;?

The village â&#x20AC;&#x153;is a really good ďŹ tâ&#x20AC;? for the single mom and her three daughtersâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; Hunter, 15, Skyler, 12, and Peyton, 10â&#x20AC;&#x201D;who work in the store and are a big help.

The basics of atrial fibrillation contract blood into the ventricles. The result is an irregular, fast heartbeat that may range in 300 to 600 beats per minute at rest.

There is no one cause of AF, which has been linked to a number of different heart conditions. These include, but are not limited to, hypertension, coronary artery disease, heart valve disease, cardiomyopathy, congenital heart disease, and pulmonary embolism. Hyperthyroidism and excessive alcohol consumption as well as pneumonia and certain lung conditions also may contribute to AF. The Mayo Clinic says the older a person is, the greater his or her risk for atrial fibrillation. Around 8 percent of the United States population over the age of 80 has AF. In many cases, AF exhibits no symptoms and a person may not realize that the heart is beating erratically. Fainting, chest pain, lightheadedness, con-

fusion, and shortness of breath may be symptoms of AF. Others with AF have reported palpitations, which are the sensation of a racing heartbeat that almost seems like the heart is flopping in the chest. Very often people spend several years with AF without knowing it.

A doctor will diagnose AF through a variety of different tests. An electrocardiogram, or ECG, graphs an image of the electrical impulses traveling through the heart. This is one of the more common ways to diagnose AF. A monitor may be worn for a few days to continuously record the heart rhythm.

Oftentimes a person can live with AF without any problems. However, there are some dangers in letting AF go untreated. Because the heart is beating irregularly, blood flow can be compromised and not pump efficiently. This can make the heart weaken and lead to heart failure. When the atria are not

Drugs used to keep the heart rate normal and prevent future episodes of AF include sotalol, dronedarone, dofetilide, and amiodarone.

AF may recur even when treatment is effective. It may take some time to get the right balance of treatment to prevent future bouts of AF, but there is no guarantee it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come back.

Working in concert with a qualified doctor can make the process go more smoothly, and treatment with medication may need to continue throughout a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life.

beating correctly, blood will not flow through them as quickly. This may cause blood to pool in the upper chambers and contribute to clot formation. If a clot dislodges and gets pumped into the brain, it can cause a stroke. The Cleveland Clinic says those with AFare five to seven times more likely to have a stroke than those without AF. Treating AF may require a series of medications to prevent clots and reset the rhythm of the heart. Resetting the rhythm is known as cardioversion, which can be done with medication or through a brief electrical shock under sedation. Blood-thinning medications, such as Warfarin, may be prescribed.

Such medications help the blood stay thin and prevent clotting. Routine checkups may be needed while taking a blood-thinner because small cuts can result in significant blood loss.

When working properly, the human heart is a wonder. The heartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two upper chambers work in conjunction with the two lower chambers to deliver blood and oxygen to every area of the body. Sometimes the heart may beat irregularly and rapidly, in which a person is experiencing atrial fibrillation, commonly shortened to AF or â&#x20AC;&#x153;afib.â&#x20AC;?

When a person is healthy, the atria (upper chambers) of his or her heart contract, followed by the ventricles (lower chambers) in a normal sinus rhythm. When timed perfectly, this beating enables the efficient flow of blood throughout the body. Normally, the heart beats at a rate of 60 to 100 times per minute at rest. When atrial fibrillation occurs, the electrical rhythm of the heart is not orderly and many different impulses fire rapidly at once, causing a chaotic rhythm in the atria, which can no longer effectively

Proposed Natural Gas pipeline gets public feedback News - Quinte West - Public feedback was invited at an open house at the Batawa Community Centre on June 4 as part of the expansion of the Natural Gas TransCanada Pipeline project.

“The new pipeline will stretch 350 kilometres from Markham to Iroquois,” said External Communications Specialist Sharon Kaur. “It will be increasing capacity.”

The TransCanada Eastern Mainline Project will include the addition of

compressor facilities at five existing sites. The pipeline itself will be 36 inches in diameter and follow the existing route where TransCanada currently operates two natural gas pipelines.

“The compressor units help push the gas along,” Kaur explained.

The open house was to get feedback from people who live along the route, expressing concerns with safety and adjacent land uses on their property.

The final route will be determined after an environmental assessment and

engineering and route analysis, with a decision made through the regulator, the National Energy Board, with an application to be filed in August, 2014.

“There will be a second round of open houses,” she added.

Open houses were being held at 12 locations across Ontario. The one in Batawa was the second, with people being asked to fill out comment forms.

The actual construction of the new pipeline is expected to start in 2016 and be completed in three or four months.

“It means thousands of local jobs,” Kaur said. “Local spending, and taxes for the municipalities are also part of the plan.”

She ensured that natural gas prices won’t go up after the new pipeline goes in.

What the open house did not reveal was how many natural gas explosions have occurred across the country with the TransCanada pipeline. This 36-inch line is larger than the 20-inch or 24-inch lines already in place. How safe are

natural gas pipelines?

“There’s a problem,” said nearby Glen Miller resident Robert Petho.

“They are putting in new technologies, but there is a history of explosions along the TransCanada pipelines. I am very concerned.”

The middle line of a three gas line section of the TransCanada ruptured in 2011 at Beardmore in Northern Ontario.

The line built in 1956 was said to have undergone regular maintenance. In Peace River, Alberta, a section of the TransCanada mainline exploded near the Dene First Nations Reservation in 2009. A CBC News investigation said the National Energy Board criticized TransCanada for inadequate field inspections and ineffective management.

Information on the explosion was just obtained from the National Energy Board in 2014 through an Access-toInformation request from CBC. Mike Harroun with TransCanada Pipeline at the open house said there is new pipeline safety and integrity testing.

“We have a fleet of helicopters that patrol the line,” he said.

Integrity engineer Trent Van Egmond said they have a tool that checks the inside of the pipe with sensors and a 3-D picture to check for corrosion. If there is a problem they dig it up and repair it.

He had a display of a pipeline inspection gauge (PIG), a smaller version of what would actually fit inside the 36-inch pipe.

The first round of open houses for the project commenced on May 27 and will end on June 19, 2014, said Sharan Kaur.

“Once completed this project will become part of the integrated Canadian Mainline system and will transport natural gas,” Kaur said. “Pipelines are the safest method to transport natural gas across considerable distances.

TransCanada’s pipelines are designed, built and operated to ensure safety and protection of local communities and the environment. We work to meet or exceed industry, government and regulatory standards to ensure public safety.”

Kaur said the pipeline will be monitored 24 hours a day by highly trained staff from a state-of-the-art control centre.

“The addition of this new natural gas transmission infrastructure will provide businesses, homes, schools and hospitals in Ontario and Quebec with access to a safe and diverse source of natural gas,” Kaur said.

TransCanada Pipeline’s $7-billion proposal to extend their lines through the United States in the Keystone XL project is still in limbo and under environmental review.

News - Brighton - Brighton’s eighth annual Relay for Life finished well past the $46,000 fund-raising goal its fund-raisers had set.

The 12-hour event, held June 6 and 7 at the King Edward Park Community Centre, raised $63,625, Karen White, president of the Canadian Cancer Society’s Hastings-Prince Edward County Unit, said Monday.

“We were just blown away by the response of the community,” she said. The 30 teams and 245 participants, along with the 16 members of the relay’s organizing committee, “really outdid themselves.”

White praised the committee for putting together “an amazing event” that was “very meaningful but fun,” featuring all kinds of activities that kept the teams engaged throughout the night. They included zumba sessions, a tug of war, and special laps (including New Year’s Eve, and Support Our Troops).

There were also solemn moments, such as the Survivors Lap for people who have got the better of cancer, and a luminary ceremony, led by the relay committee’s honorary chair Lou Rinaldi, in tribute to those who have succumbed to the disease. The silent lap that followed “was just breathtaking,” White said. “You could have heard a pin drop.”

Eight hundred luminaries were lined up around the track. “We had to go out and buy more candles,” she said.

In her opening remarks Friday night White spoke of the Canadian Cancer Society’s mission, to eradicate cancer and enhance the quality of life of people living with the disease, through prevention, advocacy, research, information and support services.

“Advocacy is very important,” White said, pointing out the organization works with all levels of government to provide for a healthy environment.

“This year we’re working on a youth smoking prevention program,” she said.

The guest speaker representing the survivors in attendance was Judy Murtha, a retired nurse who founded Community Care Brighton and worked there for 25 years.

She’s a 14-year survivor of breast cancer but she didn’t manage it on her own.

“Much like all of you, I had a wonderful support group” of friends and family, Murtha said. Their drives, and “an ear to listen and a shoulder to cry on is what got me through.”

Seeing all the people taking part in the Relay for Life, “supporting and reaching out to those they don’t even know is, without a doubt, most inspiring,” she said. “We are here tonight either because we personally have experienced cancer or know of someone who has. We have lost friends and family to the disease and we have celebrated when there was an all-clear report.”

To all those present, “I am confident that you are making a difference and with each dollar raised we are closer to a cure,” Murtha said.

“Cancer does not define who we are, although there are times when we were going through the treatments it is all consuming. But it cannot take the essences of who we are.

We are strong and this disease will be beaten.”

Spirit Week - lowering stress levels before writing exams News - Campbellford - Organizing Spirit Week events at Campbellford District High School has traditionally been left up to the teachers but this year, for the first time, the school’s 29 Grade 11 and 12

business leadership students took on the task as a project.

It was complicated at first, with everyone contributing ideas, “but we got it all figured out and pulled it together in a month,” said Kasey Everden.

“We put a lot of work into it,” Bethany Spiers said. “Everybody is having a good time.”

Which is good, because “everyone is so stressed” getting ready for exams, Everden said.

Business graduate “lost argument with God” and became Anglican priest News - Campbellford - After earning a bachelor’s degree in business administration, the Reverend Bryce Sangster didn’t figure on becoming a priest.

But then he wasn’t too sure what he was going to do with his life while in his early 20s. Born and raised in Quebec, he attended a church camp operated by the Anglican Church in the late 1970s, “to find a place [where he could] fit” and decide how to make the best use of the education he had acquired.

“I didn’t picture myself … leading services, preaching and doing all that stuff,” he says.

His idea was to work for a charity or church and toil away in the background.

It didn’t happen.

“I had an argument with God and I lost,” Sangster says. He became a priest instead, starting out in Belleville in 1986. He subsequently spent nine years in Prince Edward County before

returning to his home province where he remained until recently, when he became the priest in charge at Christ Church.

“I love the leading of services and preaching,” Sangster says, as well as doing pastoral work, and getting to know people.

Unfortunately, there’s more and more administrative work these days “so my business degree helps.”

He divides his time between Christ Church (four Sunday services a month at 9 a.m.) and St George’s in Hastings and St. James in Roseneath (each twice a month, at 11 a.m.). A combined service is held at one of the three churches whenever there’s a fifth Sunday in the month.

“It’s the reality of the situation now, unfortunately,” he says, because of reduced financial resources which afflicts many churches these days. It was a shortage of funds at his last parish in Quebec—it could only pay him 60

per cent of his stipend—that led him to look for a vacant position elsewhere.

One opened up in Campbellford following the Reverend Christine Watt’s retirement.

He and his wife Janet, who have been married 24 years, are “happy here, it’s a good fit.”

Sangster says the Anglican Church is “in a period of transition,” and it’s happening “all over the place.”

The population is aging and with it church congregations, “and it’s tougher to replace” members when they go.

Since the “heyday” of churches in the 1950s, “there’s been a slow decline in membership, in participation,” Sangster says.

“There is a connection between affluence and church attendance,” he says. The richer you are, “the less you need God [and] the church begins to get marginalized.

“We’re at a point where we can’t keep doing the same things we’ve been doing, they’re not work-

ing, they’re not reaching a younger age,” he says. “We’re not responding to their needs.”

Young families are busy and don’t have a lot of time, energy and financial means to commit to the church, Sangster says. Consequently, “it’s becoming more and more difficult” to fill positions needed to keep the church going.

“That’s the bad news,” he says. The good news is that when “Mammon and materialism and capitalism” start losing their “veneer,” people will look to the church “for something else to provide meaning for their lives, and, hopefully, we can … find a different way of doing that.”

Social media offers potential and “could pay dividends,” Sangster says.

With all the challenges the church faces, “it’s an exciting” time to be a member but also “scary,” he admits.

Key to rebuilding church congregations will be to create an atmosphere that makes newcomers feel welcome, he says.

Claudia is a lovingly affectionate cat who likes to have the humans all to herself. She is considering, however, sharing her humans with a dog. She is happy to allow other cats and dogs (but not too many) in her space as long as they leave her to her naps and her sleeping areas. She is a young spayed adult cat who is looking for that special home - a home where she can relax her life away in peace and love, with a sweet summer breeze as she slumbers on a window sill safe from the dangers that brought her to Cat Care S/N Initiative.

Please don’t forget KITTEN SEASON is here and we need loving FOSTER HOMES so we can rescue some of the helpless ones and find them loving forever homes. Without foster homes we are unable to rescue and the cats and kittens will have to be returned to an undeserved life outside without the love and care they should have.

We are also looking for barns, out buildings or very patient accepting homes for feral cats that need to be relocated.They are spayed/neutered.

We will trap them and bring to you. We do not charge an adoption fee but ask for a donation.

Thank you for your consideration

Girls rugby team wins OFSAA gold, dedicates victory to coach were hugging each other with gold medals around their necks.

The Tigers won the provincial championship with a 41 - 0 victory over Beamsville in the final game of a three-day tournament, played June 2 to 4 at Mary-Anne Sills Park.

With the game so close to home, hundreds of Tigers fans packed the sidelines and cheered their team to a completely dominant win.

Winning the title in front of a home crowd was sweet on its own, players and coaches said. But the victory was even more special because the Tigers had made it to the OFSAA AA final game the past two years, only to leave with silver.

“It’s awesome,” Tigers captains Danielle Brazeau and Tanya Hasenberger said at the same time, following the game.

“We’re finally getting it,” said Hasenberger.

“We worked so hard,” said Brazeau.

They both acknowledged that they were playing with a heavy heart throughout the whole tournament, given the recent passing of their coach.

But, when the final game started, they had to calm their nerves. They had no idea the game would be a rout.

“We came out flying,” said Hasenberger. “That was our game plan to just come out with all the pace we possibly could and make a mark from the beginning.”

The plan worked. The home squad scored tries early and often. Beamsville rarely put the ball into the Tigers’ end of the field The Tigers opened the tournament on the Monday with a 51 - 0 victory over Twin Lakes and followed it up with a 22 - 5 victory over Paris on Tuesday. They advanced Morgan Walker jumps on Toni Kennedy as the Trenton Tigers celebrate win- to the final with a 53 - 0 win over St. Anne.

Sports - Belleville - Razor would have loved this one.

The Trenton High School Tigers girls rugby team won OFSAA AA gold last week and dedicated their win to their late coach. Ray “Razor” Hanley was

a long-time Tigers rugby coach who built the girls program in the 1980s. He lost a battle with cancer last November.

“He’d be so proud of the girls,” said Tigers coach Brian Meindl, amid a field full of Tigers fans and players, who

Players pose for the traditional celebratory team photo after winning OFSAA rugby gold. Photo: Stephen Petrick

“The most incredible thing about our team is that our backup players would be starters on any other team. We get subbed off, they get subbed on and we still score points.”

Meindl said the team was focused and determined heading into the final.

“Last year we lost on the last play of the game, so the girls were quite nervous today going to a gold medal match. The way they started this match, no team was going to beat them.”

“They were hard working, and, as always, the hard work pays off.”

The Tigers team was also made up of Harleigh Baker, Lauryn Bons, Brianna Brake, Danielle Brazeau, Abigail Clements, Jocelyn Desautels, Janessa Duffy, Danielle Farrington, Karin Fritz-Hazell, Jessica Genereaux, Victoria Harmond, Faith Hickey, Antoinette Kennedy, Amanda Lajoie, Jenna Lajoie, Sarah Locke, Paton Manzara, Logan McGilvray, Taryn McLachlan,

Historic “Drumhead Service” hosted by Legion

Leading the parade prior to the “Drumhead Service” and laying of the wreath at the Cenotaph was the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 30 Pipes and Drums followed by the Zone F-2 Colour Party, then Campbellford Legion Branch 103 colour party.

By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Unable to worship or pray in chapels or churches during war, soldiers held a “Drumhead Service” led by their Padre, at a temporary altar in the field, with military drums which they would drape with the regimental or national flags.

That special service came to Campbellford last Sunday and was hosted by the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 103.

This honour occurs here every ten years, as it rotates through the Legion branches of Zone F-2.

“Many many years ago, in early wars, a tradition going back several centuries started by soldiers in the field without chapels or churches, on a Sunday would find their drums … they would be consecrated and they would lay their

standards upon those drums and their colours would become the altar for their service that day,” Zone F2 Commander Don Ramsey told the crowd.

Veterans, Legion members, family and friends gathered at Old Mill Park for the public ceremony which paid tribute to the many who have made the “ultimate sacrifice.”

Campbellford Legion President Sharon Hay welcomed everyone including Deputy District Commander Buck Buchanan and Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan.

The guest speaker was Lieutenant Colonel William Adcock, who has served 44 years “of a very distinguished service,” with many tours and deployments overseas.

“This is a very emotional weekend as we celebrate the 70th anniversary of D-Day and

realize that those young men and women died for us,” Adcock said.

“Today I am here to thank the Legion … for all of your hard work, your determination to continue to serve your veterans and their families, to continue to engage the Remembrance services for all personnel, past and present,” he added.

He focused on the challenges facing Legions today.

“We need to take a look and ensure that the increasing numbers of veterans with physical and psychological injuries are looked after,” he said.

“We need to watch that we don’t close too many of the Veterans Affairs [Canada] district offices … And make sure that the veterans have access to the information that they need,” he Guest speaker Lieutenant-Colonel William Adcock OMM CD talked about the added.

Wanted: physicians to fill gaps at hospital

By John Campbell

News - Campbellford - More physicians are needed to cover shifts in the emergency department and to attend to in-patients at Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH), according to the latest update of the hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s professional staff resource plan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This process is a best educated guess process,â&#x20AC;? Dr. Bob Henderson told CMH board members June 5.

The emergency department has one full-time staff member and needs the equivalent of seven more full-time physicians. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always a challenge,â&#x20AC;? Henderson said, noting that the hospital has three to four doctors who work regular shifts

in emergency and â&#x20AC;&#x153;a whole herd of people [who] come in once in a while.

Even with that we run into scheduling difďŹ culties where emerge shifts may not be ďŹ lled.â&#x20AC;?

He said the scheduler for the department, Laurie Smith, is â&#x20AC;&#x153;pulling her hair out trying to get August covered.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really very difďŹ cult, particularly in the summer.â&#x20AC;?

Board member Derek Nice asked â&#x20AC;&#x153;what would happenâ&#x20AC;? if there was a shift that couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be covered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have come very close over the years [but] weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never actually closed down the emerge,â&#x20AC;? in the 35 years heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been practising locally, Henderson replied. There is a contingency plan for

closure but â&#x20AC;&#x153;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an exceedingly difďŹ cult thing to do, and dangerous. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like to think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to happen this August,â&#x20AC;? he added, because two things usually come into play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One is physicians really donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want that to happen and feel a responsibility to their community or to their position or to their colleagues, and generally you can twist somebodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arm hard enough that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll come.â&#x20AC;?

The other option is to pay â&#x20AC;&#x153;a signiďŹ cant premiumâ&#x20AC;? to have physicians â&#x20AC;&#x153;ďŹ ll the gap,â&#x20AC;? which is â&#x20AC;&#x153;a whole lot betterâ&#x20AC;? than having someone come to the hospital for emergency treatment â&#x20AC;&#x153;and die outside your hospital,â&#x20AC;? Henderson said.

The hospital is also in need of more family physicians who are active in the hospital. Ten Date: March 19, 2014

are required but at present there are only seven who fulďŹ ll this role. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are a number of physicians whose patients we look after in hospital, who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t themselves come to hospital, so that increases the load,â&#x20AC;? Henderson explained.

The non-staff physicians include doctors â&#x20AC;&#x153;who have been out of the hospital for so long thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no way they would consider coming back,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hospital work is always the hardest, riskiest part of our job,â&#x20AC;? which explains in part â&#x20AC;&#x153;why some people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do it.â&#x20AC;?

Other considerations have to do with a doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comfort level working â&#x20AC;&#x153;in this environment and/or the acuity of the patients that we deal with,â&#x20AC;? Henderson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also a lifestyle choice.â&#x20AC;?

Another factor is, if you have to drive 25 to 30 minutes to see two patients

ward-Hastings were delighted to receive a cheque in the amount of $5,000 from the Royal Bank of Canada Foundation.

The cheque is as a result of a grant that was written and funds that were allocated through the partnership with the Royal Bank of Canada Foundation and Habitat for Humanity Canada.

Habitat for Humanity-PEH will use 100% of these funds to refurbish a Habitat home to be sold to a new Habitat family. Habitat will work alongside employees of the local RBC Branches to make the dream of home ownership a reality for yet another deserving family in the community through a Royal Bank of Canada Build Day. This donation will help bring Habitat one step closer to its goal of eradicating poverty housing from the Prince Edward & Hastings counties.

The Prince Edward-Hastings Habitat for Humanity afďŹ liate has built 14 homes helping 15 families and is an independent, not for proďŹ t faith based housing program dedicated to the elimination of poverty housing by building homes in partnership with families in need.

Habitat for Humanity â&#x20AC;&#x201C; PEH is currently seeking a family for its 16th home that will be built in Quinte West.

It is seeking a family from the Quinte West area looking for the opportunity to own their own home with an interestfree mortgage and who is willing to contribute 500 hours of â&#x20AC;&#x153;sweat equity.â&#x20AC;?

Historic “Drumhead Service” hosted by Legion in the new charter: financial instability and decreased standards of living especially for permanently disabled veterans, limitation to vocational rehabilitation and assistance and insufficient family support,” he said.

“We must continually ensure that the charter remains a living document by demanding a review every two years to ensure it continually improves to meet the evolving needs of veterans and their families.”

Following the closing ceremonies, refreshments were served at the Legion. (below) The Royal Canadian Legion Campbellford Branch 103 colour party marched in the parade from the Cenotaph then to Old Mill Park where the “Drumhead Service” was hosted by the branch last Sunday. Photo: Sue Dickens

OFA takes active stance before election

By Diane Sherman

News - Ivanhoe - Across Ontario, member chapters of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture joined in a movement to bring their concerns to local provincial candidates through a strategic campaign, engaging politicians to hear their concerns, and make a commitment to work for farmers.

On June 4 the Hastings Federation of Agriculture hosted a moderated debate at the Huntingdon Veterans Community Hall in Ivanhoe. Tweed farmer and vicepresident of the association Mark Slack sat in the moderatorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chair.

Close to 70 local residents attended the evening meeting to address four key issues set out by the OFA in their Growing Ontario campaign (GrowingOntario. ofa.on.ca).

Merrill Stewart for the NDP, Anita Payne of the Green Party, Liberal candidate Georgina Thompson and incumbent Todd Smith were given equal time to respond to questions Those key issues addressed were â&#x20AC;&#x153;competitively priced energy for rural Ontario, property assessment and taxation, food literacy and agri-skills training.â&#x20AC;?

Farmers say the cost of hydro and fuel is â&#x20AC;&#x153;putting them out of business.â&#x20AC;? They want the province to move forward with expanding infrastructure for natural gas services into rural regions, stating it is half the price of hydro and a third less than propane.

They are asking the province provide â&#x20AC;&#x153;adequate funding transfers to municipalitiesâ&#x20AC;? to support rural communities,

Special guests at Bijoux

asking that taxes from farmers go to improve infrastructure used by farmers (roads, bridges, land drainage and policing), not for services â&#x20AC;&#x153;used by people,â&#x20AC;? such as recreation centres, local pools and other services found in rural towns, and similarly, that a â&#x20AC;&#x153;fairâ&#x20AC;? property assessment be made based on this separation of services.

Federation members want the Ministry of Education to bring back the study of food, nutrition and preparation, into the curriculum at all levels of education.

The OFA has partnered with the Ontario Home Economics Association to educate Ontarians on where their food comes from, and how to use it to make healthy meals from scratch, stating the economic health of the agri-food industry depends on how well consumers are informed on how to use fresh foods. The

new term for that movement is called â&#x20AC;&#x153;food-literacy.â&#x20AC;?

Statistics given by the OFA indicate jobs in the agricultural industry outnumber graduates from agricultural studies and encourage provincial support of agricultural education.

The bottom line of the debate was that each candidate committed to follow up on these key issues, if elected.

The ways and means by which they would accomplish that goal differed according to party policy. Those in attendance will have made their choices by now, based on what they heard that evening, and, their personal interpretation.

Closing of the Kemptville College was an issue, layers of bureaucracy throughout provincial ministries, rising hydro rates and the Green Energy Act came up for discussion. Though the Local Food Act is praised by the OFA,

support for ongoing training in the agricultural industry, they say, needs immediate attention.

There are over 37,000 family farms in Ontario. Good farmland is being affected by other industry as was expressed in the opening question posed

by Susan Munro from Melrose Road, Shannonville. â&#x20AC;&#x153;How will your party change the Aggregate Resource Act â&#x20AC;Ś to protect farmland and source water regions â&#x20AC;Ś from the detrimental effects of pits and quarries and other developments that negatively impact agriculture and fresh water sources?â&#x20AC;?

Near the end of the debate Munro rose again to say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;My original topic has come full circle, we still need to protect agricultural land and do what needs to be done to keep agriculture alive.â&#x20AC;?

Big rocking chair emphasizes giant long-term care problem

By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - A giant rocking chair was placed in downtown Belleville last Tuesday to emphasize a giant problem with the way our most elderly citizens are treated.

The chair was placed on Front Street across from City Hall by volunteers with the Ontario Health Coalition to raise awareness of the shortages of longterm-care spots across the province. The event also allowed workers in long-term homes to express problems within the industry, most notably that staff are overworked and now rarely have the time to give residents the care and attention they deserve. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard a lot of horror stories,â&#x20AC;? said Peter Boyle, a volunteer with the coalition, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been touring the province Peter Boyle, a volunteer with the Ontario Health Coaliwith the chair for the last three weeks to tion, speaks to union leaders and concerned citizens raise awareness of the issues.

Entertainment - Stirling - Debbie Collins and Dean Hollin will be up to some of their favourite tricks again this weekend when they return to the Stirling Festival Theatre to wrap up their run of Mixed Doubles.

The comedy and musical revue, which opened last week to highly appreciative crowds, pays tribute to some of entertainment’s most memorable duos, from Sonny and Cher to Abbott and Costello, with Hollin and Collins skillfully portraying a host of characters, often requiring lightning-fast costume changes, either on or offstage, and nimbly switching between genres and decades. It all takes some pretty fancy footwork and Hollin and Collins prove they’re entirely capable of that too.

The show was conceived by the two Stirling theatre regulars more than a decade ago and provides ample opportunity for them to show off their considerable singing talents, as well as offer a tip of the hat to dozens of musical and comic pairings that have entertained generations.

Both Collins and Hollin have played leading roles in several past SFT productions, appeared in solo shows using song in combination with storytelling to explore the lives of iconic figures including Billy Bishop and Judy Garland, and are regularly featured in the annual Christmas Panto. And each has spent time in the recording studio, later releas-

ing CDs covering some of the best-known songs of their favourite artists. As well, they share a comfort for performing and a musical chemistry that makes Mixed Doubles a compelling and entertaining journey through the pages of theatrical history.

But this is more than a simple list of well-performed classic musical numbers and comedy routines, as the show is often in the transitions. Throughout the production, the duo tirelessly switches characters and costumes, unloads a bottomless

trunk full of props and appears between the pages of an oversized book and on the screen of a giant television. Behind the scenes, Assistant Stage Manager Barbara Hodge kept up with the onstage music and mayhem, constantly and invisibly restocking the trunk and offering a curtain call wave at the end of a frantic evening.

Equally up to the task were featured musicians Michael Mulrooney, Bob Hewus and Don Reid.

The show’s creators admit that there was plenty of material that had to be cut in order to arrive at the final script but, they say, there may be room for it all yet. After the show wraps up in Stirling this weekend, Hollin and Collins are off to Orillia for a five-week run with perhaps more performances on the horizon. And they haven’t ruled out the possibility of a Mixed Doubles sequel, featuring more material drawn from stage and screen performances of the past.

Tickets and show times for Thursday, Friday and Saturday are available by contacting the box office at 613-3952100.

TRAVEL

A visit to the nearby Primrose Donkey Sanctuary

By John M. Smith

R0012738885

Lifestyles - I often write about far away, exotic places in my weekly travel column, but I know that some of you prefer to stick closer to home. Therefore, if you’re simply out for a pleasant Sunday afternoon drive, you might be interested in checking out the Primrose Donkey Sanctuary near Roseneath, just north of Cobourg, as I recently did. I found it to In the foreground is Primrose, the donkey that started it all. be a very special place with a very dedicated owner and great volunteers.

I met Sheila Burns, the founder, and she told me how she got her first donkey while living on a farm near Georgetown.

She had told a friend that she wanted to FACTORY OUTLET STORE OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK! get some animals, and her friend told her that she knew of a pregnant donkey with a foal that needed a good home and that was Sheila’s introduction to the wonderful s#HOC BULK OLATE # world of donkey care.

she also cares for goats, sheep, mules, and miniature horses.

She also has a dog, potbellied pig and about 25 cats. At the moment, she also has a raccoon in the barn but she’d certainly like that particular pest to go away!

Sadly, many of the animals that Sheila has received over the years have been abused and some of these stories will

melt your heart. For example, I met Simon, a donkey that had its tail yanked and broken by its owner, trying to force the animal into a trailer to take it to auction. I also met Joey, who was tied to a tree and actually beaten with a baseball bat and Patsy, who is blind. Some of these animals arrive at the sanctuary in a very weakened and scared state, so it takes a

lot of work and patience to break down those barriers Rehabilitation is an important part of the sanctuary’s work, and Sheila says it gives her a lot of personal satisfaction when an abused animal begins to trust humans again. For example, Virgil, a miniature mule who was badly abused in the first year of his life, is now feeling quite at ease in his new home and he’s even allowing visiting children to pet his back!

Some of the animals are eventually adopted, but Sheila never sells them, for she insists on keeping control so that if something isn’t right, the animal can always return to the sanctuary. Sheila also does inspections at their new residences to ensure that her former charges are still happy and healthy.

All of the animals are named and known to Sheila and the volunteers. I met one of these dedicated volunteers, Vivian, and she introduced me to even more of the animals and she pointed out Primrose, that original donkey, to me. She’s still going strong. Vivian told me that Primrose used to pull a cart at Black Creek Pioneer Village until 1989. She’ll be having her 40th birthday this summer and a big celebration is planned at the sanctuary on August 24.

Another upcoming event is “Teatime with the Donkeys”, to be held on June 22 and it’s hoped that a lot of money will be raised at this special event. The cost is $10 and there’ll be live music and a silent auction too. Sheila has no large corporate sponsors, so she admits that she has to do a lot of fund raising. She confided that, “I survive strictly on donations and my pension.” After all, the animals must be fed and cared for, including hooves trimmed, medications, etc.

The sanctuary is open every Thursday and Sunday afternoon from 1-4 p.m.

There’s no cost to visit this amazing place, but donations are greatly appreciated. It’s a registered charity, so tax receipts are available and Sheila does have a real need for more funds. In fact, Sheila’s dream is to expand the facility for she has a mere six acres for all her animals, and there’s an opportunity now to grow her sanctuary.

However, it would take a lot of money to purchase more land so that she could build a new barn and grow her own feed.

She says that a needed expansion is a real issue at this time, and she hopes that her dream will come true. Until that happens, she’ll continue to rescue, protect, and rehabilitate as best as she can. She says that, “This is my passion. I simply feel that it’s right to do this.”

Happy Birthday Chuck

The family of the late Bob Bronson wish to thank each and everyone in Dads’ life for their kindness and friendship over his 87 years. From these friendships came his stories and in his last few years, his frequent visits with each of you made up a large part of his life. There are too many to thank individually but I do know that Dad would have been surprised by the number of people who showed up to honour him.

He probably would have said that he didn’t know he had that many friends, then he would have laughed, tipped his hat, and added ‘if you know what I mean’. All of his children thank him for his time with us and wish him a wonderful Father’s Day. CL446018

PATRICK, Darrin – July 15, 1965 - June 14, 2009 God saw him getting tired, A cure was not to be.

He wrapped him in His loving arms, And whispered “Come with Me” He suffered much in silence, His spirit did not bend.

He faced his pain with courage, Until the very end.

He tried so hard to stay with us, But his fight was not in vain.

God took him to His loving home, And freed him from his pain.

Always in our hearts, Mom and Dad Curtis, Suz, Michael, Molly, Sandy, Jay, Quincy, Paige and Brooke

Hughes, Adam James In loving memory of my boyfriend, my best friend who passed away June 15th, 2013 They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason Will change the way I feel, For no-one knows the heartache That lies behind my smile, No-one knows how many times I have broken down and cried.

I want to tell you something So there won't be any doubt, You're so wonderful to think of But so hard to live without.

FOR SALE

CL449868

July 11, 1941- June 13, 2013 I remember the day I met you, and the day God made you mine.

I remember the day God took you, and will to the end of time.

We made our vows together, until death do we part.

But the day God took you from me, my whole world fell apart.

Sometimes I think I am dreaming, I can’t believe it’s true, that I can go on living when I no longer have you.

And the memories of the happy years when we were together The joys, the tears, the love, the fears, will stay with me forever.

And when I’m sad and lonely, and when everything goes wrong, I seem to hear you whisper “cheer up and carry on”.

Each time I see your picture, you seem to smile and say, Don’t cry I’m only sleeping, we’ll meet again some day.

I am so thankful for the children that we created, and they will remain apart of you.

I will love you through all eternity.

News - Warkworth - Since 2003, the Stephen Lewis Foundation has funded more than 1,100 initiatives and partnered with 300 community-based organizations in 15 African countries to provide care and support to women, orphaned children, grandmothers and people living with HIV and AIDS. Together they are turning the tide against an AIDS epidemic that has claimed more than 20 million lives in Africa; today nearly one in every 20 adults live with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa.

Millions of children orphaned by the disease are being raised by their grandmothers. The Stephen Lewis Foundation helps them through its Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign, which has raised $19.5 million in support of grassroots organizations that provide food, educational supplies, uniforms, medical care, housing, counselling, and testing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We cannot yet cure AIDS but we know how to prolong the lives of those who are HIV positive and increase the quality of their lives,â&#x20AC;? Gwen Sherry, president of the Trent Hills Grannies, told members and guests last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have enough resources in the world for the children and the grandmothers left behind by AIDS once we decide in the world community that is what we want to do. We know how to create a world where girls and women have economic power and self-esteem necessary to speak out for their own safety and human rights, and where men and boys know that to be a man is more about respect and equality than about conquest.â&#x20AC;?

Helping to bring about the necessary changes are people such as Ida Nambeya Mukaka, a full-time ďŹ eld representative for the Stephen Lewis Foundation in Africa. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She has been called the face, the hands and the heart of the foundation,â&#x20AC;?

Sherry said, by way of introducing the eveningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guest speaker who was there to talk about her personal journey and professional experience.

Mukaka operates on the front lines â&#x20AC;&#x153;combating HIV/AIDS and attendant problems at the community level,â&#x20AC;? Sher-

ry said, working with â&#x20AC;&#x153;great skill and dedication to build trust, partnerships and accountability for projects funded by the foundation.â&#x20AC;? She â&#x20AC;&#x153;represents the strength and the resilience of these African women as they move to empower themselves and their communities.â&#x20AC;?

Mukaka, who lost both her husband and her brother to AIDS in 2000, told the Grannies: â&#x20AC;&#x153;You wonder where does your money go, you should look at me,â&#x20AC;? to see what impact their fund raising is having on the lives of those who receive assistance.

She got a good job with the foundation and was able to raise two daughters an adopted son, and has been able to provide a quality education for her children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So thank you very much for the work that you do,â&#x20AC;? Mukaka said.

With the aid of photos, she described her work as a ďŹ eld representative to evaluate the programs being funded by Canadian grandmothers. Feeding programs, for example, are giving â&#x20AC;&#x153;conďŹ dence to the childrenâ&#x20AC;? and allowing them to focus on learning while at school.

The money Canadian grandmothers have raised â&#x20AC;&#x153;is bringing a lot of changesâ&#x20AC;? and helping to rebuild communities, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is good work being done.â&#x20AC;?

When she saw that poor housing â&#x20AC;&#x153;defeats us,â&#x20AC;? the foundation began partnering with local organizations to provide better accommodations for grandmothers and their grandchildren.

The foundation is helping to change attitudes, as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Grandmothers are becoming advocates of their own rights,â&#x20AC;? Mukaka said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When HIV and AIDS came to Africa, it traumatized all of us,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It made us lose conďŹ dence â&#x20AC;Ś Nobody stood up and said we needed treatment because we thought it was our fault to have this disease, so everybody was watching everybody dying.â&#x20AC;?

The foundation â&#x20AC;&#x153;can never go the political wayâ&#x20AC;? to bring about change but the work that it is doing is giving people the conďŹ dence â&#x20AC;&#x153;to create a new community,â&#x20AC;? that recognizes life is precious and to be celebrated every day, Mukaka said.

Madoc woman takes national poetry award

By Diane Sherman

Madoc Township resident Deidre Reitav has plowed into the field of Canadian poetry with her first entry.

Reitavâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poem, The Rooster, took first place in the Dr. William Henry Drummond national poetry contest, the oldest, non-governmental contest dedicated to Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s First National Poet. Photo: Diane Sherman

The William Henry Drummond Award bears the name of Deidre Reitav as the 2014 winner of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest National Poetry Contest.

News - Madoc Township - Deidre Reitav was raised on a farm without television.

She did a lot of reading and learned to live off the land as her Swedish ancestors did.

At eight years of age she started writing poetry, and though she excelled in high school, graduating with the four top honours for academic achievement, including the Governor-Generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Medal, her studies at Centre Hastings Secondary School did not focus on literature.

Reitav graduated with a bio-chemistry degree in 2001 from the University of Toronto and a bio-technician degree from Loyalist College in 2004.

On Friday, May 30, the young mother stepped before seasoned poets at the library in Cobalt, Ontario, to accept the Dr. William Henry Drummond Award.

Members of The League of Canadian Poets, Ontario Poetry Society, the Canadian Poetry Association and former winners of the prestigious award had never heard her name, or, read her work.

Her poem, The Rooster, which she says â&#x20AC;&#x153;grew out of life experience on the farm,â&#x20AC;? was chosen from 223 submissions, the largest number received since the contest began (1970) in memory of Dr. Drummond, who became known as Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s First National Poet, for his often humorous depiction of life in rural Quebec.

He served as the first doctor in Cobalt in 1905 and with his brothers operated the silver mine. The Drummond award is made of a stone from his fireplace.

The contest is the longest running, â&#x20AC;&#x153;nongovernmental national poetry contestâ&#x20AC;? in Canada.

Finalists were selected through a â&#x20AC;&#x153;blind judgingâ&#x20AC;? process by Allan Briesmaster, a poet, publisher, literary consultant and free-

lance editor, specializing in poetry and non-fiction work.

Reitav said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was a rarity. Everyone there had a long history in literature, with arts or literary degrees. They were surprised. I came out of no where.â&#x20AC;?

She noted when Briesmaster introduced her, he made that reference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here is a name we have never heard before, but, I stand by my original comment.â&#x20AC;?

She said he read aloud from the small booklet which contained 19 winning poems with hers in first place. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Rooster may seem an odd

choice for the winner, but, what rich language and imagery it has in abundance, and poise and flair, sustained through to a strong close.â&#x20AC;?

It was Briesmasterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third year to judge the contest. His written comment was summarized with, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel fortunate to have been involved in a very special contest â&#x20AC;Ś.â&#x20AC;?

Awards are presented annually during the 12-day Spring Pulse Poetry Festival in Cobalt.

References to the history of the contest and how to order a copy of the booklet of poetry can be found on line through their web site.

Deidre said her goal was to be

recognized and published. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I certainly did not expect to place first.â&#x20AC;?

She has returned to her farm in Madoc Township and continues to work the land, her saw mill, and raise her daughter while working a regular job, writing, and preparing entries for both national and international poetry competitions.

In less than ten months, since she read her poems at an open microphone session in Norwood, and received encouragement from friends and family, she has moved into the class of a recognized Canadian National Poet.
