2015 Trent Hills Relay For Life raises $56,805.99

By Sue Dickens

News – Campbellford – The ďŹ ght against cancer continued here with the 2015 Trent Hills Relay For life. “We had a wonderful night with 17 teams raising $56,805.99,â€? said Emily Vassiliadis, community fundraising specialist with the Peterborough & District Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society. “We had 143 participants and 50 survivors to walk the ďŹ rst lap.â€? Among the many teams that participated again this year the Campbellford Lioness team raised over $5,000 to become a Variety level team. “This is the third year in a row they have raised over $5,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society at Trent Hills Relay For Life,â€? said Vassiliadis. Fun theme laps, a silent auction and the Trent Hills ďŹ remen’s barbecue were all part of the evening. As well, “Four-year-old Autumn Thomson had her hair cut at Trent Hills Relay

For Life for the ďŹ rst time and it was to donate it for a wig to be made for a cancer patient,â€? commented Vassiliadis. Miranda Black, who helped kick off the fundraiser said, “We’re all here because cancer touched your life and I am no different. My uncle just passed away from stage four brain cancer.â€? “It’s amazing to see our community come together like this and see that Relay for Life really does save lives,â€? she added. Meghan Simmons, a Grade 8 student at Hillcrest Public School, read her winning speech that she had given about Relay for Life at a school and Legion public speaking competition telling everyone to celebrate, remember and ďŹ ght back. Her mom was diagnosed with breast cancer and is a survivor. “There is no ďŹ nish line until we ďŹ nd a cure,â€? she told participants. “I am a track walking, prevention talking, luminary The team “Breast Friendsâ€? includes many cancer survivors: front, from left, Brenda Morrison; Tammy Philp; Nancy Bauer; front lying down - Linda Milne; back from left, Nan Please see “Trentâ€? on page 5

Students, colleagues pay tribute to Kenny Wilford

By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood – Students and staff at Norwood District High remembered beloved head custodian Ken Wilford during a simple and moving memorial in front of the school. The tribute included the dedication of a tree planted by students and a bench donated by township residents Frank and Shelley Vandenberg and Donna Kelly in honour of the Norwood native who died in a car accident April 9 at the age of 61. His wife Christina joined daughters Andrea and Kendra, son-in-law Ryan, sister-in-law Lorraine and his brothers Dave and Bob attended the ceremony. The school’s guitar club played their version of Hurt, a song made famous by Johnny Cash. The birds perched in nearby trees seemed to cease their birdsong as the haunting chords were strummed in dirge-like fashion. “This man had a lesson to teach everyone,” said student council president Megan Wilson. “Not only was he a caretaker of this school he was a caregiver.” “Kenny gave everything he had to help individuals in the school and the community without accepting anything in return,” Megan said. “He had expectations that we should all have; expectations that everybody should be treated equal and shown the respect they deserve. “(He) believed everyone was special and everyone was gifted, that everyone deserved a chance, and everyone deserved a voice ... and if you couldn’t find a voice Kenny would be it.” Megan said students were always

happy to spend time with Wilford and enjoyed his sense of humour, honesty and sense of purpose. She wanted to thank him for “sharing his love of life, for teaching us how to smile and laugh while working to better ourselves. “We treasure the time we had with you and how you took life by the reins and were a role model and a friend. We will always have a little bit of the person you were in our hearts.” Wilford had a very close bond with the Learning Life Skills class and teacher Diane Graham called him a “working male role model for students” whether they were Co-Op or LLS. “At one time or another Kenny was your boss, supervisor and your men-

tor,” Graham said. “He treated everyone with the same energy and enthusiasm, just one of the reasons why we loved him. He had a knack for looking at each individual’s ability and not what a person cannot do but what they could do.” Graham said Wilford taught students that they needed to “be responsible for the tasks they were assigned and to be respectful of others.” His pride in the school was matchless, she said, and he reminded students that they could achieve great things after graduating from NDHS. Graham quoted from Leo Bennett’s poem You Can Start Here to underscore that point. “This is the starting point for any place in the world,” Bennett wrote.

Students and staff at Norwood District High School held their own moving memorial to head custodian Ken Wilford dedicating a tree in his honour and lauding the private donation of a bench by Frank Vandenberg, Donna Kelly and Shelley Vandenberg. Members of Ken’s family attended the open-air tribute which included a performance by the NDHS guitar club. In the photo are (front row, left to right) Andrea Wilford, Christina Wilford, Kendra Sedgwick. Back row, left to right, Ryan Sedgwick, Donna Kelly, Bob Wilford, Dave Wilford and Frank Vandenberg.

“We must start from where we are using what we have and launch out on our journey.” “He had immense pride in his job,” added teacher Rebecca Brinkman. “He set high expectations for those around him and believed everyone had the ability to live up to them,” Brinkman said. “He talked with enthusiasm about

the things in his life he cared about. (It’s) obvious that his caring manner extended well beyond the Norwood walls and included friends, family, colleagues and especially students.” “He would have been proud to see the beautification in front of the school he loved so much,” Principal Mary Lou Steinmann said. “We all know his heart was here.”

Events - Hastings – For the first time ever, there will be prizes for outstanding registered floats in the big Hastings Canada Day parade. Always a colourful highlight at the festive and entertaining July 1 party, this year’s parade will include $50 prizes for top entries in a handful of categories including best historical float, best children’s/youth float, most imaginative float and people’s choice. The day’s festivities are organized in part by the Hastings Historical Society (HHS) which has added the “new tradition” of judged floats. Spectators can register their “People’s Choice” votes at the Historical Society’s booth near the Murray Fenton Lions Gazebo. People can register their floats by contacting HHS president Pat Funk at 705-696-3988.

A highlight of the evening was the lighting of luminaries dedicated to remember and honour loved ones or friends who have experienced cancer. The funds raised go towards funding cancer research in Ontario and supporting the Canadian Cancer Society’s programs and services such as Wheels of Hope transportation service, Peer Support and Smokers’ Helpline.

Havelock classic car show a thrilling success By Bill Freeman

Entertainment - Havelock – For a first effort, Havelock’s Friday night classic car show was an unqualified success that exceeded all expectations and has organizers thinking about making it a regular event. Hosted by the recently-formed Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Economic Advisory Committee, the show was organized with a modest goal of attracting 20-30 classic cars to a closed off section of Quebec Street and encouraging visitors to stop by, view the cars, enjoy barbecue fare and shop at local businesses. In fact, over 60 cars filled the street spilling into a nearby municipal parking lot as well as the vacant space across from the HBM municipal office. An all-ages crowd walked amongst the polished finery, had some supper and picked up raffle booklets for in-store draws by sponsoring businesses. “I’d be dishonest if I said I wasn’t thrilled,� committee chair and township councillor, Hart Webb said as people strolled down Quebec Street

and classic 1950s and 60s music filled the air. “We didn’t plan for this many,� Webb admitted. “If we knew there was going to be this many cars next time we’ll have a lot more events and more businesses involved.� But the committee was helped along considerably by the Norwood Highway 7 Cruisers who offered valuable guidance. “They came over and showed me how the car show game works,� Webb said. “We’re very grateful to them; they really helped us with the set up and with how a good car show works.� “We’re very thrilled with how things have gone.� Previous car shows in the village have taken place in the parking area on the south side of Highway 7 and Webb said the committee didn’t want to do that because people viewing cars stay on that side of the highway because crossing the road is difficult. “We wanted the cars in the downtown area so that people could look at Havelock and see what Havelock has

to offer,� he said. The economic development committee was formed three months ago and the car show was its public “kick-off,� Webb says. “We said we wanted to get something going here in the summer. We wanted to have something here and I think this is a good start. It’s just a start, something to build on.� While thrilled with the turnout, Webb isn’t surprised that people in HBM threw their support behind the show. “The town of Havelock, when we have events like this, they tend to get behind it and we’re trying to create a nice atmosphere for businesses in the summertime drawing people from the area and outside; that’s why we had it on a Friday night.� Webb said he met people from Spring Brook, Madoc and Marmora and beyond as well as local residents and township cottagers at the show. “It’s nice that we can bring them in and show them what we have to offer in our community.�

Millpond, Hastings north beach “posted� after recent tests By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood – The Norwood Millpond Beach and the Hastings North Beach have been posted after recent water sample tests. The Peterborough County-City Health Unit (PCCHU) posted the Millpond Beach on June 10 and the Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health Unit (KPRDHU) posted the Hastings South Beach on June 19. The Hastings South Beach is open as are beaches at the Seymour Conservation Area and Crowe Bay Fun Park. According to the PCCHU, a public beach is “posted� when the level of E. coli in the water exceeds 100 E coli cfu per 100 ml. of water. When the level of E. coli exceeds that threshold the water is deemed unsafe for recreational use, including swimming. After the June 10 result signage was posted around the Millpond Beach to remind the public that bacterial counts were elevated and posed a potential health risk. When a beach tests positive it is re-sampled within one business day, the PCCHU says. If the levels return to acceptable levels the posting is removed. Continued on page 9


OPINION

The walking dead

Editorial - “There are examples of species all over the world that are essentially the walking dead,” said Stanford University professor Paul Ehrlich. “We are sawing off the limb that we are sitting on.” He was talking about the Sixth Extinction, the huge loss of species that is Gwynne Dyer underway right now. It has been discussed in public before, of course, but what Ehrlich and other scientists from Stanford and Princeton universities and the University of California Berkeley have done is to document it statistically. Animals and plants are always going extinct, usually to be replaced by rival species that exploit the same ecological niche more efficiently. But the normal turnover rate is quite slow, according to the fossil record: about one species of vertebrate per 10,000 species goes extinct each century. Ehrlich and his colleagues deliberately raised the bar, assuming that the normal extinction rate is twice as high as that – and still got an alarming result. In a study published this month in Science Advances, they report that vertebrates (animals with internal skeletons made of bone or cartilage – mammals, birds, reptiles and fish) are going extinct at a rate 114 times faster than normal. In a separate study last year, Professor Stuart Pimm of Duke University estimated that the loss rate may be as much as a thousand times higher than normal – and that includes plants as well as animals. “We are now entering the sixth great mass extinction event,” said Gerardo Ceballos of the Universidad Autonoma de Mexico, lead author of the Science Advances study. “If it is allowed to continue, life would take many millions of years to recover and our species itself would likely disappear early on.” Indeed, Harvard biologist E.O. Wilson has estimated that at the current rate of loss, half of Earth’s higher lifeforms will be extinct by 2100. The previous five mass extinctions, all during the past half-billion years, each wiped out at least half of the existing species of life. Four of them were probably caused by drastic warming of the planet due to massive, millennia-long volcanic eruptions. The warming eventually made the deep oceans oxygen-free, allowing sulfur bacteria to emerge from the muds. As they took over the oceans, they killed off all the oxygen-based life – and when

they finally reached the surface, they emitted vast quantities of hydrogen sulfide gas that destroyed the ozone layer and directly poisoned most landbased life as well. The fifth and most recent mass extinction, at the end of the Cretaceous era 65 million years ago, was different. It was caused by a giant asteroid that threw so much dust up when it hit Earth that the Sun was effectively hidden for years. First the plants died, and then the animals. But the cause of the sixth extinction is a single species: us. It’s fair to say that we are the victims of our own success, but so is the entire biosphere. There were one billion of us in 1800. We are now seven and a half billion, on our way to ten or eleven billion. We have appropriated the most biologically productive 40 percent of the planet’s land surface for our cities, farms and pastures, and there’s not much room left for the other species. They have been crowded out, hunted out, or poisoned by our chemical wastes. Their habitats have been destroyed. Even the oceans are being devastated as one commercial fish species after another is fished out. And still our population continues to grow, and our appetite for meat causes more land to be cleared to grow grain not for people, but for livestock. All this even before global warming really gets underway and starts to take huge bites out of the ecosphere. We are on the Highway to Hell, and it’s hard to see how we get off it. In a way, climate change is the easiest part of the problem to fix, because all we have to do is stop burning fossil fuels and reform the way we farm to cut carbon dioxide emissions. More easily said than done, as the history of the past thirty years amply demonstrates, but certainly not impossible if we take the task seriously. Maintaining the diversity of species (some of which we haven’t even identified yet) that provide essential “ecosystem services” is going to be far harder, because the web of interdependence among apparently unrelated species is very complex. At the very least, however, it is clear that we must restore around a quarter of our agricultural land to its original “wild” state and cut back drastically on fishing. It’s far from clear that we can do that in time and still go on feeding all of the human population, but the alternative is worse. James Lovelock put it very bluntly in his book “The Revenge of Gaia.” “If we continue business as usual, our species may never again enjoy the lush and verdant world we had only a hundred years ago,” he wrote. “What is most in danger is civilisation; humans are tough enough for breeding pairs to survive ... but if these huge changes do occur it seems likely that few of the teeming billions now alive will survive.”

What South Carolina can learn from Manitoba By Stephen Petrick Editorial - Can today’s problems be blamed on yesterday’s mistakes? That’s an interesting question to debate now, given two stories in the news over the past week, one on each side of the border. The United States is currently reeling from another race-related crime; the gunning down of nine innocent African Americans at a historic church in Charleston, South Carolina. The accused killer was apparently motivated by hate. His interest in the Confederate flag, which was seen in several photos of him that have surfaced, has renewed calls for the South Carolina to rid itself of it, on grounds that it symbolizes slavery and white supremacist ideology. This issue has seemingly nothing to do with news out west recently that the Manitoba government has officially apologized to its First Nations for what was known as the Sixties Scoop, a drive to remove Aboriginal children from their own communities and into white homes against their family members’ wishes. One story is about a correction that many are arguing needs to be made. Another is about a correction that has been made; that is if you consider a correction an acknowledgement that racism once was so severe in a region that efforts were made to wipe out a culture. The term “cultural genocide” has been used before in talking about the moving of First Nations children into white communities and residential schools. There are some who might argue that either type of correction is pointless. If South Carolina stops hanging the Confederate flag on government buildings, it probably won’t automatically stop hate crimes. The long history of tension between white and black America is based on much more than a simple flag. Likewise, I’d bet my life that there are more than a few Canadians muttering under their breath now, saying, “What is the point of an apology for something that happened several decades ago?” This apology, much like the one the federal government issued in 2008, won’t automatically solve

problems that are troubling First Nations communities, such of access to housing or safe drinking water. It certainly doesn’t change the fact that an Aboriginal woman is four times more likely to be murdered or go missing than a Canadian women of another race. To that I would argue, yes, corrections or apologizes don’t automatically solve problems … but, at least they’re a start. The Confederate flag, which wasn’t even lowered to half mass in the South Carolina State Capital in the wake of the shootings, has a long history in the United States. Different sources will tell you different things, but it’s generally accepted that it goes back to the United States Civil War and was hung by the Southern states that fought to preserve slavery. Some in the U.S. argue it simply symbolizes Southern heritage – and all those good things you hear about the south, like its great “southern hospitality.” But it’s also the flag used by the mega-racist group known as the Ku Klux Klan. And it certainly symbolized something unseemly in the mind of the accused Charleston shooter. When a flag with connections to racism (intentional or otherwise) is still highly visible, and even celebrated, it justifies the actions of the few who see racism as acceptable. And we can only imagine how the message of that flag manifested in the mind of the accused. For the sake of human dignity, the Confederate flag has to go. And now back to Manitoba. No, the apology doesn’t change everything for First Nations communities, but at least it shows that its leaders are aware of history and want to learn from the past. And hopefully this will give First Nations leaders some faith that politicians will work with them to improve quality of life. Canada and the US both have issues related to race, but these two stories show the stark contrast in how they’re being addressed. In Manitoba, attitudes appear to be changing. In South Carolina there’s still a ways to go. But this story isn’t over yet.

Millpond, Hastings north beach “posted” after recent tests sampled at least once in June, July and August. In the city, beaches at Roger’s Cove and Beavermead are sampled by the health unit every day. Residents can check the most recent public beach statuses online at <www. pcchu.ca> or by calling the health unit during regular office hours at 705-7431000. They can also follow regular updates throughout the summer on Twitter < @PCCHU >

The Township of Asphodel-Norwood has installed signs at all public recreation areas and parks in the municipality reminding people using facilities to exercise caution and that beaches are unsupervised and used at your own risk. While the health unit will always maintain its testing schedule there are events that may result in unsafe levels of bacteria between sampling periods including heavy rainfall, a large number of waterfowl, high winds or wave activity

and large numbers of swimmers. They urge people not to feed waterfowl, nor allow their children to swim in soiled diapers. Collecting garbage and cleaning up after dogs are also critical in helping to keep water safe. It takes approximately 24 hours for the health unit to received and analyze the water quality results from the lab. The Norwood Millpond was one of five beaches to be posted. No beaches reviewed by the health unit have been closed.

A beach is closed when a significant risk to human health and safety has been identified such as signs of hazardous or infectious material in the water or when there is a blue-green algae bloom, the PCCHU explains. “Swimming in the water is not permitted when a beach is closed and public access to the beach will be restricted or eliminated. The beach is re-opened when the risk to human health and safety has been eliminated.” W

Public beaches in the Peterborough City and County are regularly tested by health unit inspectors to ensure water quality conditions are safe for recreational use as are those in Northumberland by the KPRDHU. Public beaches in Peterborough County, including the Norwood Millpond, Douro and Warsaw Caves are tested weekly, except for Chandos Beach Quarry Bay Beach and White’s Beach which are

Entertainment - Norwood – The Norwood Lions free concert series returns for a third summer with a strong and eclectic line-up to help beguile away Tuesday evenings. The popular concert series started out as an innovative way to raise funds for the Norwood Lions Splashpad which has opened for a second season and organizers expect this year’s program to draw good crowds to the outdoor venue near the Archer Picnic Shelter. On rainy nights the show moves indoors to the spacious community centre floor. Last summer’s series was plagued by bad weather but organizers were pleased with the support the series generated. Overall, they Lions were able to add another $5,000 to the splashpad fund for enhancements to the facility and surrounding area. During its inaugural year, the series raised approximately $1,000 per concert in free-will donations for the splashpad. The Norwood Lions spearheaded a community fundraising campaign that raised over $150,000 locally towards the $300,000 project. The 2,575 square foot, $210,967 Vortex splashpad officially opened July 1, 2014 and has been a wellused addition to the Free to be Children Park adjacent to the community centre. Local response to the splashpad campaign was sensational and because of that the facility opened a full year earlier than the project committee expected it would.

Jim Hayward and Willowridge bring their popular country and bluegrass sound to the Norwood Lions Club free Tuesday night concert series on July 28 at the Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre.

“The Lions Club feels this (concert series) was well received in the community and that it adds to the overall appeal of the village so we would like to do it again,” says Club member Ron Scott who chaired the splashpad committee and also plays acoustic bass with the Donegal Fiddlers Orchestra who perform on August 4. Donations accepted during this year’s program will be shared between the performers and future Lions projects.

Scott is pleased the Club was able to put together a program this summer. The setting, he says, is ideal with the splashpad and playground nearby for children to enjoy while parents and grandparents socialize and listen to the music. The Lions operate a barbecue before and during shows and the Lioness Club provides desserts. The key, Scott adds, is providing a line-up that appeals to all ages and the club feels it’s done that

again. They’ve put together another “Kid’s Night” on July 14 featuring balloon animals by Razberry the Clown, Tim the Puppet Tamer, cast members from Norwood District High’s production of Grease and The New Seaboyer Band. The program is not quite “set in stone” but kicks off July 1 with The Candy Mountain Band and other Canada Day activities at the community centre. On July 7 the Dual Axylz Band featuring Westben member and

Tim the Puppet Tamer returns to Norwood for a Kid’s Night show July 14 as part of the free Norwood Lions Tuesday night concert series at the Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre. Photo: Bill Freeman

former Band of Gold singer Hop McEwan plays traditional rock and country music. July 14 is Kid’s Night and on July 21 Debbie Drummond returns with a new show. Jim Hayward and his popular country and bluegrass band Willowridge is on stage July 28. The Donegal Fiddlers Orchestra play August 4. New local band Crow’s Feet perform August 11. All shows begin at 6:30 p.m.

Thrift Store to mark Salvation Army milestone with special event July 2 ble that [because] some people can only give an hour a week.” More are needed for sorting, cleaning and preparing donations “to go out on the floor,” and if a handyman and someone with a truck were to come forward, that “would be wonderful,” she said. There’s painting to be done and “we have so many people calling [who] just don’t have [the means] to get donations here.” The Thrift Store is open Monday through Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. “Ideally we would love to have volunteers here open to close every day,” Preston said. To sign up, email her at Trish_Preston@can.salvationarmy.org. The Salvation Army used to have a church in Campbellford dating back to the 1880s but it closed more than a decade ago when it held its final service on January 18, 2004 in what is now Apollo’s restaurant. After that local members of the faith began travelling to Trenton for religious services there. Janey Leach has been employed as the lone family services worker in Campbellford since 2000. She looks after the Christmas, community lunch and summer day programs as well as the food bank and emergency services. The summer adventure camp for children six to 16 years of age is “amazing,” she says. Five children from the area get to spend a week at the Jackson Point facility on the shores of Lake Simcoe, where they swim, canoe, and do other things, and “have a great time,” Leach says. Subsidies are available for families that can’t afford the $250 fee. To learn more about the camp, and other programs, call her at 705-

653-4185 or email campbellfordcfs@ gmail.com. The Salvation Army’s food bank is more of a “cupboard or pantry” for “people who need help topping up” their groceries or have an emergency, she says. The free lunches it offers in tandem with the Free Methodist Church every Friday draws 30 to 35 people, while the one held the first Sunday of each month with St. John’s United Church serves 80 to 90 people. Lunches are also offered twice a month at the Hastings Civic Centre; they get between 50 and 70 people, she says. Leach said the Thrift Store “fills a real need” selling inexpensive clothing. “I clothed my kids from there when they were little,” she says. “Many, many people do.” The revenues it produces, along with the fundraising campaign at Christmas, “keeps us going year-round.”

Trish Preston, centre, runs the Salvation Army’s Thrift Store in Campbellford, with the help of people such as Sherry Ibey, on the left, and Kathy Morningstar. The faith-based organization, which says it “has grown to become the largest non-governmental direct provider of social services” in Canada, is celebrating 150 years of service internationally. To mark the milestone, a special event will be held at the store July 2 at 10 a.m. Photo: John Campbell

Repairing leaking roof will “open the floodgates” By John Campbell

News - Trent Hills – How much does it cost to open the floodgates to sundry expenses? As little as $2,900, it turns out. That’s what council approved to replace the shingles on the picnic shelter at the Warkworth ball diamond, over the objections of Mayor Hector Macmillan and Councillor Rosemary Kelleher-MacLennan. They sounded the alarm because the shelter doesn’t belong to the mu-

nicipality, it’s owned by the Percy Agricultural Society, which sets a precedent other community organizations needing to have repairs done will try to exploit. Kelleher-MacLennan told council June 16 she had a “problem” with the request from Warkworth Minor Baseball. “I have a concern that we might be opening a can of worms here by repairing another group’s building,” resulting in the municipality being inun-

dated with similar requests, she said. Macmillan said the question came up at the all-candidates meeting in Warkworth last year and he “made it clear then” it wasn’t a municipal structure. “I can’t tell you in history that we have ever gone to shingle someone else’s roof,” he said. A report to council by community services officer Scott Rose said he had been approached by a group of Please see “Repairing” on page 12

News - Campbellford - The Salvation Army is celebrating 150 years of service internationally and while it no longer has a church in Campbellford, it still has a strong presence in the community with its Thrift Store at 52 Bridge Street East and its family services programs. The store will hold a special celebration July 2 to highlight the services the Salvation Army extends to those in need around the world and in Trent Hills. Locally, it provides help through a food bank, community lunch program, emergency services and assistance for families at Christmas. Making it all possible is “an amazing community [that is] so supportive of us,” says Trish Preston, manager of the Thrift Store. Residents keep the store well stocked with donations of clothes, housewares, books, puzzles, some furniture and other goods, which generate revenue from their sale to support the services the Salvation Army has to offer. In the week leading up to the July 2 celebration at 10 a.m., sales of goods reduced in price by half to $1.50 will be held daily, with different items featured each day. There will also be an opportunity for the community to share Salvation Army stories in a memory book kept at the store, and if they wish, they can contribute them to the international #150reasons campaign to collect 150 stories from people describing how the Salvation Army has shaped, transformed or influenced lives. You can learn more about the campaign at <www.salvationarmy.org/ihq/150reasons>. The Thrift Store is also looking for help. “We’re really in need of volunteers,” says Preston, who currently has eight she can call upon. “I would love to dou-

Ferris Park gets photo boost from Hastings exhibition By Bill Freeman

Events - Hastings – Ferris Provincial Park near Campbellford is getting a photographic boost during a special exhibition in Hastings. The “Photos on Tour” exhibition is currently on display at the Hastings Public Library and Hastings Legion where three photos each are on view. There will be an additional stop at the Royal Bank and all six familythemed photos will be on display at The Captain’s Table Restaurant throughout August. The popular Photos on Tour exhibition has visited Havelock, Norwood and Marmora in previous years and will be in Stirling this fall, says Carol Robertson vice president of Friends of Ferris Park. “It’s a really good way to showcase and promote Ferris,” Robertson says. The exhibition is also an ideal way to promote the Friends of Ferris Park and the work the volunteer group does to help bring visitors to the beautiful provincial park and to educate and entertain them while they’re at the site.

The photos offer a delightful mosaic of the fun families have when they visit Ferris. The photo tour is a popular and appealing outreach venture, says Robertson, although it’s difficult to gauge whether it leads directly to visits to the park. The Friends leave plentiful visitor information at each of tour stop, including trail maps and activity brochures. “The places I’ve gone have been very receptive. The people who host the displays are very positive and impressed.” Over the years the exhibition has been displayed in businesses, restaurants, libraries, senior’s residences and banks. Choosing the photos was not easy, Robertson admits. “The value of the theme helps us separate and choose.” “In the past we’ve pretty much focused on the unique aspects of the park like the suspension bridge, Ranney Gorge, Ranney Falls, tree identification clusters and the playground; all things that are unique to Ferris so when people look at the picture there is

no mistaking, it’s Ferris and not Algonquin.” Over the past five years they’ve “pretty much identified those features (and the current tour) is pretty much recognizable that it’s the families of Ferris and not others.” While encouraging visitors to the local natural jewel is the paramount reason behind the tour, promoting the Friends is another aspect of the initiative. The group has ten “hard-core members” and could use some more, Robertson says. The Friends are the key to popular events like Kite Day and have been leading Tuesday morning tours for the past six years. “In the past we’ve done more activities but with fewer volunteers it’s hard to do that. We are looking to increase our membership and promote volunteerism to help us.” Recruiting volunteers is high on their 2015 “To Do” list as is the “Memories of Ferris Park” project, which asks visitors to submit their best memories of

Play day hi-jinks in Hastings Regan Forestell and Emily Fleming go under the limbo bar during an event at the annual Hastings Public School play day. Photo: Bill Freeman

Ferris. Those memories will be posted on the Friends of Ferris website and preserved in a special binder. As part of the Memory Project, they’ll have signage and storyboard information installed near two pioneer home foundations found on site belonging to early settler families. The Friends are very much involved in trails maintenance and the trails always have interesting things to see on it, says Robertson. Attendance at the Tuesday walks has increased as well. “Ontario Parks staff do a considerable amount of work to make it visually nice and practically nice and to maintain the rest of the park so visitors enjoy it.” “I think things like this display help a little bit too,” she adds.

volunteers last summer “about making some improvements to the Warkworth ball diamond that would make it functional for a higher level of baseball.” They included expanding the infield. The group hoped to have “some of the material donated to complete the work” and, in preparation, sod was removed from the diamond. “Unfortunately, this donation did not come through and we were forced to purchase $3,000 (approx.) worth of clay to make the diamond safe for play,” Rose wrote. The same group asked for additional repairs in the fall and staff were able to carry out most of the minor ones, he stated. As for putting new shingles on the picnic shelter, “we have been reluctant to undertake this work” in the past because the shelter is owned by the agricultural society, Rose continued. However, pricing was obtained, and a recommendation presented to council that it use funds in a recreation reserve, should it approve the expenditure.

He noted there was $5,000 in a Percy Recreation Reserve that pre-dated amalgamation. “Huge error,” Macmillan said after the vote was taken with Deputy Mayor Bob Crate and councillors Rick English and Ken Tully giving their consent to the expenditure, and KelleherMacLennan being opposed. Councillors Bill Thompson and Cathy Redden weren’t present. John Finlay, president of the Campbellford-Seymour Agricultural Society who was seated in the public gallery, found it “startling” that council had approved the project but recognized the opportunity it presented. “We need to shingle our Red Barn,” he said during question period. “And I expect your request to be right on this table, too,” Macmillan told him, “and all the rest of the organizations that have been asking for stuff for the last 10 years in Campbellford and [have] been turned down.” The three council members who voted in favour explained their decision when asked. English said people use the

shelter in conjunction with the ball park and he got Rose to acknowledge the municipality does “general maintenance” at the canteen, which is also owned by the Percy Agricultural Society. “We paint it once in a while, we’ll clean it up but we haven’t done a lot of effort, [or] spent a lot of resources on that building because it hasn’t been used as a canteen in years and years and years, just the bathroom,” Rose said. “That’s the only significant area of value for the community ... We haven’t put any real resources into that building at all.” Crate said, “there are exceptions” to rules and this was “something that should be probably maintained or saved,” and was “worthwhile in that part of the community.” Tully said the decision “doesn’t mean it’s precedent-setting.” The roof was “bit of an embarrassment” and its leaking “needed to be addressed [but] nobody was stepping forward.” Macmillan said the work not being budgeted was his “number one concern” but he also feared it “will open the floodgates.”

News - Hastings – “This is the ultimate fishing town and this is logical,” says Heather Bonsell of the annual “Kids, Cops and Canadian Tire” fishing derby that drew scores of people to the north shore of the Trent River in Hastings Saturday. In its eighth year in Hastings, the event runs in communities across Ontario and is sponsored by the Police Association of Ontario, Canadian Tire and Bob Izumi’s Fishing Forever Ontario Foundation. The free fishing derby is organized locally by the Trent Hills Community Policing Committee and its Hastings branch, with the Northumberland OPP also taking part. Over 30 youngsters cast out lines accompanied by family members. The committee also hosted a free barbecue. “We’ve been doing this for eight years now and every year it gets better, it’s more fun,” says Bonsell, secretary of the Trent Hills Community Policing Committee and also a member of its Hastings chapter. “This is the fun event. This is the time we get to meet everyone in the community,” she said. For the policing committee the event is all about “public education” and giving the general public, especially youth a chance to interact with police officers. It is also a way of promoting the committee itself, says Bonsell echoing the siren call of all volunteer organizations looking to find new members in order to keep fresh and viable. She says the Trent Hills Community Policing Committee has been lucky in drawing in volunteers and admits that they are lucky in that respect. “Volunteers are at a premium. As we get older we need to bring in younger people to fill in the gaps.” Bonsell remains a big booster of Hastings and says the derby is another reminder of why Hastings won the World Fishing Network’s Ultimate Fishing Town Canada title in 2012. “This is the ultimate fishing town and this is logical. We’ve got to come up with things to draw people here; sure it’s for people in the community but it does draw grandparents and other relatives from outside Hastings. It’s a draw.” Bonsell and other committee members have watched youngsters grow up with the event. This year they also had Hastings Scouts involved as volunteers, something Committee Chair Aileen Williams was pleased to see. “This is good and beneficial for the community,” Williams said. “It gets parents and grandparents out with their kids. We look forward to this every year and we watch kids grow. We’ve seen them little and now they’re in high school.” Fishing Forever deserves accolades too for promoting fishing as a family event, adds Bonsell. “This is a fun event and a lot of people enjoy it.”

OPG proposes to double production of hydroelectricity at Ranney Falls GS News - Campbellford - The proposed expansion of the Ranney Falls Generating Station will not only double the capacity of the Trent Drive plant to produce electricity, it will contribute more than $10 million to the local economy during construction. Ontario Power Generation estimates work on the project will take approximately 30 months and employ up to 80 workers at one time on the site, most of whom will be “drawn from the local and regional area.� The proposal, explained in an open house OPG held last week, is for a new power house to be built with a 10 MW (megawatt) turbine unit, which will produce as much electricity as the two units combined in the existing power house that were commissioned in 1922. “Ontario needs more electricity and OPG has been giv-

en a mandate from the Province of Ontario to develop and expand its hydroelectric capacity,� says the company that is wholly owned by the province. Ranney Falls is one of 26 small hydroelectric generating stations on the TrentSevern Waterway that, combined, generate close to 100 megawatts of power (1 megawatt can supply enough electricity for about 750 homes). In addition to construction of a second powerhouse, the project will require expansion of the existing forebay and construction of a new spillway to handle the flow of water into an expanded tailrace channel “for emergency situations.� A new electrical substation will be built to connect with the Hydro One local distribution lines on site. A secondary, or “Pup�, powerhouse, as it is known, built in 1926 with a turbine

News – Campbellford – David Pollack, who joined the Campbellford hospital board in 2013, is the co-chair of a charity ride known as Bike Up Northumberland. He was in attendance at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Campbellford Memorial Hospital and the hospital foundation held last evening here where Calvin Newman, chair of the foundation, announced his intention to participate in the event. Pollack who is a member of the Northumberland Hills Cycling Club is co-chairing the ride along with Stewart Richardson from the Cobourg

Cycling Club. According to Pollack people have to leave the community for their charity rides, which means that their donations leave the community too making this new event in Northumberland such an important initiative. “My goal is to do a charity ride once a year. I’ve done the Ride to Conquer Cancer and the Healing Ride. With Bike Up, I am able to ride in my home community, which means that the pledges I collect benefit my community as they are donated directly to my hospitals,� Pollack said. This new cycling initiative that will be held in the fall is

ment, because “the footprint’s really very small.� As with any project, there will be additional dust, noise and traffic, “but we’re committed to managing and mitigating them,� she said. “You can’t have zero impact.� The secondary powerhouse, although not a heritage building, will be left the way it is. “We want to leave the viewscape, what people are used to,� MacLeod said. “We are trying to be as least impactive as we can and respect what’s there.� She said an Ontario Parks superintendent checked out the work the utility had done on the turtles’ habitat and was “very pleased� by what he saw. “It’s all something we’re very proud of,� she said. MacLeod noted that increasing the capacity of the spillway – from 101 cubic

unit that produces less than a megawatt, will be decommissioned, having reached the end of its useful life. OPG has taken steps to enhance the habitat of the Northern Map Turtle and Eastern Snapping Turtle, as well as prevent their accessing the construction area by putting up fencing. Both species are designated as Special Concern federally and provincially. Iskander Boulos, senior manager with OPG, said it has taken “years of planning� to reach this stage but approvals and permits will have to be obtained and an environmental management plan submitted before construction can begin, either at the end of 2016 or early in 2017.

a charity ride in support of the hospital Foundation and Northumberland Hills Hospital Foundation (NHHF). Funds raised will be equally distributed to both foundations to support the purchase of priority medical equipment. “We are thrilled to be working together to bring a new and exciting cycling event to Northumberland. It sends a message to our residents that we are working together to enhance patient care across all regions that make up our great County,� stated John Russell, executive director of the Campbellford hospital Foundation. Brighton Mayor Mark Walas has already declared his participation in the ride during the event launch at County Council. The cycling route follows the scenic Waterfront Trail from Cobourg to Presqu’ile Park in Brighton. The ride is designed for riders of all ages and abilities. With varying return distances of 5km, 10km, 25km, 50km and 100km, participants can take advantage of this experience while raising funds to support their local hospital and at the same time benefit from a healthy, active lifestyle, say organizers.

Newman said he will be participating in the 100 km portion. To participate, riders must raise a minimum amount of funds. Each distance has its own minimum fundraising goal: 5 km (Family Ride) is $20 for adults or $50 for a family; 10 km is $100 per individual; 25 km is $150 per individual; 50 km is $250 per individual; 100 km is $500 per individual. Riders can create a team with their family, friends or colleagues to join or sign up as an individual. Once registered, riders will be able to create their own personal page to share their story, track their goals and invite donations to help reach their fundraising goals. All donations are tax deductible and will be equally distributed amongst the two hospital foundations. Registration opens on Monday, June 22 and can be done online at www. canadahelps.org/en/charities/northumberland-hills-hospital-foundation/bikeupnorthumberland/. The event is scheduled for Saturday, September 12 with a start time of 8 a.m. All routes for the ride will start and end at Donegan Park in Cobourg.

all the way to Afghanistan. “Nine of the cadet corps from my time were in Afghanistan with me in 2007, ’08, ’09, ‘10 and ’11,” he said. His lengthy career included serving with the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment as platoon commander and later as deputy task force movement officer with Op ATHENA travelling across Canada and throughout the Middle East. He was eventually deployed to Bosnia, then Afghanistan and later Cyprus. During the awards ceremony that followed the Top New Recruit Medal was presented to Cadet Alexander Tucker. The Lord Strathcona Medal was presented to Warrant Officer Autumn Ouellette for her outstanding performance and personal involvement in the community. It is the highest award a cadet can receive.

added. Ferguson is currently the Corp’s Regimental Sergeant Major. His job is the link between the Company Sergeant Major and platoon commanders. “He wants to join the Canadian army as an armored soldier and work his way up to the role of Regimental Sergeant Major,” said the Corps’ Commanding Officer Captain Clement Fitzgerald, who praised the cadets on their showing at the review. Reviewing Officer Lieutenant Colonel John Haylock, who was raised in the Peterborough/Belleville area and joined Cadets in 1987, also had high praise for the cadets. After conducting the formal inspection he spoke to the Corps and guests. “What an outstanding parade,” he said, as he talked about how his own journey began with cadets and took him

News – Campbellford –Chief Warrant Officer (CWO) Griffin Ferguson epitomizes what the 2777 Northumberland Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps is all about. He received the Most Outstanding Cadet award at the 50th Annual Ceremonial Review held last Sunday in Campbellford. Family and friends of the cadets attended along with local dignitaries, Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan and area Legion representatives. It was an afternoon of ceremony and celebration with the annual parade, “March on the Flags”, inspection, “March Past”, awards and more. Joining cadets six years ago, CWO Ferguson, of Warkworth, who is now 17, talked about what the Corps means to him. “I have a goal set for myself. I didn’t come into this, expecting awards. I’m here to lead the unit. I’m here to be a leader,” he said. “I was very surprised when I received the award. It is good to get recognized for it,” he added with a grin. His grandfather Ron Whitney, of Colborne, who was a member of the militia in Cobourg half a century ago, talked about his grandson with pride. “I think it’s wonderful. His grandmother was very proud of him,” he said. It was Ferguson’s grandfather who showed him a newspaper ad about cadets that started him on this path. “The Cadet Corps has been the one motivating factor in my life. It’s given me stability, it’s given me something to pursue,” Ferguson said. “There’s so much more to cadets than just being led into the armed forces. We learn self-discipline, respect, decency and honour. We learn things they don’t teach you in school,” he added. He will be leaving the Corps in another year to enroll in a welding fabrication program at Fleming College. “It is my fallback,” he noted. “Then I’ll apply to be a soldier,” he


Art show celebrates creative energy “It would be wonderful to do it every year,� she said. Staff at the school started to talk about holding a show over the winter and then formed a committee to oversee the effort. “The momentum behind it was incredible and the kids

got excited about it,� Merrin said. “It’s a celebration of all the children’s accomplishments in visual arts.� Some of the work was done early in the school year, some quite recently, other pieces were drawn from

News - Norwood – There was enough creative energy in the Norwood District Public School gymnasium to light up a small community. Every student from kindergarten to grade eight participated in an artistic showcase, which drew a large and steady crowd to the gym, nicely transformed into a gallery for the occasion.

“It’s just lovely to have it. To look back at the end of the school year and say ‘look what we’ve done, look what we can do and what can we do next?’� said teacher Pam Merrin who acted as the show’s curator. It’s been ten years since NDPS hosted an artistic showcase for students and Tomek Batko, a grade two student at Norwood District Public School, shows Merrin is keen to repeat the off the puppet he had on display at the school’s big art show, which feasuccess next year. tured work by every student in the school.

individual student portfolios and others were collaborative and group pieces, Merrin said. “It’s just a wonderful way to celebrate the importance of visual arts and to celebrate how amazing these kids are when they’re being creative.� One collaborative piece involved every single primary student at the school. “We know how important it is for children to have a voice through the arts

At the showcase, she said students were able to “celebrate what they can say through art that maybe they can’t say in another subject. “Some students might struggle with writing or being able to stand up in front of a class to give a speech but they can say and tell and share their stories through a painting or a sculpture. That’s wonderful.�

Yoga teacher grads attain 500-hour milestone

By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - A group of yoga practitioners have achieved a milestone after graduating from the advanced 500-hour teacher program at the Wavelengths studio in Norwood. The training has been going on since January, 2014, and all of the students had previously completed a yearlong training at Wavelengths before embarking on the advanced program which required each participant to undertake a “practicum” before graduation. “While the yoga industry minimum standard is a mere 200 hours of training to become a yoga instructor, though it’s common for people to teach yoga with even less training, graduates of this program have a minimum of 500 hours of formal training,” says instructor Caroline Owen of Wavelengths.

That being said, Owen notes that most committed yoga teachers continue training well beyond the 500-hour mark. Owen, who directs and teachers most of the teacher training at Wavelengths, has over 2,500 hours of formal training in yoga, yoga therapy, philosophy, Vedic chanting and Sanskrit. She’s also had many “less formal” hours of workshops, classes and retreats. Owen says the experiences her students gained through their practicums were deeply satisfying. “The students have found these opportunities to each in the community an invaluable part of their growth as a yoga teacher,” she said. In doing the practicums, the students were also providing a service to the community bringing yoga to various groups of people with special needs,

Owen says. They covered a wide range and included teaching yoga to a group of girls at Norwood District High School, teaching in the mental health units at both Peterborough Regional Health Centre and Campbellford Memorial Hospital, bringing yoga to inmates at Warkworth Penitentiary, teaching yoga at the Peterborough YMCA to help runners prevent injury and offering yoga for back care and to people with brain injuries. Wavelength’s next 200-hour yoga teacher training starts in September, 2015, and runs until June, 2016. The students meet one or two weekends a month with time in between for study and practice. Owen can be reached at <wavelengths@gmail.com> or through <www.wavelengthsyoga.com>.

History book, “huge” Canada Day event part of Canada 150 bid The digitization project could involve as many as 100,000 sheets of paper, says township treasurer Candace White. If the grant application is successful, the book would be available for sale to the general public when it is completed, White added. The municipality has received letters of support from the historical society, the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 300 and Mayor Terry Low representing council. The second application is for $100,000 at 50 per cent that would be used to make the Canada Day 2017 celebration in the township a “huge event.” This application is supported by letters of endorsement from the Norwood Lions, the 40th Northumberland Chapter IODE in Norwood as well as council. One stumbling block to the application was the need to have the township’s certificate of incorporation which could not be readily found. “We may have to submit it without and that may disqualify us,” said White. “We will automatically be disqualified if we don’t meet the deadline. I thought it would have been a document I could get my hands on right away.” In the end, all the documentation that was needed for the applications

was found and included with the Canada 150 paperwork, White said. The municipality’s contribution to the two projects would be spread over the 2016 and 2017 budgets, says White. More details on the respective initiatives will be forthcoming. In a side note to the Canada 150 applications, Deputy-Mayor Rodger Bonneau said that the Norwood Lions Club has discussed a 2017 that initiative involving improvements to the Norwood Town Hall. “This will be coming forward in the near future. The Lions will possibly take this on as a major project.” The project would involve upgrades to the kitchen, lighting, the floors and walls etc.

Events - Norwood – Asphodel-Norwood wants to join the rest of Canada in celebrating the 150th anniversary of Confederation in 2017 and is hoping to tap into some of the $210 million Canada 150 Fund to do so. Digitizing the Township of Asphodel-Norwood’s irreplaceable documents, a new book on the township and a huge “Canada Day 150 Blast” could be the beneficiary of Canada 150 funding if the municipality is successful in its application. The Canada 150 Fund will support both local and national initiatives “that bring Canadians together (and) honour the exceptional and give back to Canada by leaving lasting legacies.” Canadian municipalities and their institutions are among the eligible funding recipients and the Township of Asphodel-Norwood has decided to submit two applications. One is for $75,000, with the municipality contributing 67 per cent ($50,250) and the federal government’s Canada 150 Fund the remaining 33 per cent ($27,750) that would be used to produce a brand new Asphodel-Norwood history book and to undertake the digital scanning of all of Asphodel-Norwood’s documents allowing for easier access to its archives.

Lilac festival luncheon By Sue Dickens

News – Warkworth – Fashion and fragrances were the focus of the recent Warkworth Lilac Festival luncheon, one of three major fundraisers for the Millennium Lilac Trail. “The jazz concert, the lilac sales and the luncheon are the main fundraising events with proceeds going to the development and maintenance of the lilac beds on the trail,” said Janice Allen, who along with Judy Norlock, is co-chair of the festival. The luncheon was held on the Greystone estate, the home of Carole Dove. The 2.6 km trail, which begins at the lower end of Main Street takes walkers to Highway 29 along the Mill Creek and is a labour of love for the dozens of volunteers who do the maintenance. More than 300 plantings of more than 60 varieties of lilacs bloom in the spring. The theme of this year’s luncheon was “The Art of Fragrance,” noted Allen. “It was lots of excitement, everything that ladies and gentlemen love. It was a lovely fragrance and fashion experience,” she exclaimed. Ninety-five guests paid the $130 ticket price and it sold out quickly. “We have a group of ladies organized The Globe and Mail’s fashion columnist Nolan Bryant was a special guest by Linda Caldwell who come from Lakespeaker at the festival.

The Globe and Mail’s fashion columnist Nolan Bryant was a special guest speaker at the festival. “Everyone enjoyed his presentation on fashion,” said Allen. Fragrance and Fashion talks by a Jo Malone representative were also part of the afternoon. Guests enjoyed a gourmet three-course lunch including wines, created by local chef Tina Moorey of On the Side Gourmet.

one day and said it was “like Mother Teresa’s house,� he was so taken by the care he received. Moira Mooney, who handles the scheduling for the more than 60 volunteers who help out at the hospice, said “most people fear somebody dying� and hesitate to become a volunteer, but “it is not a fearful experience at all.� New volunteers “just have to come and find their niche, where they feel most comfortable,� Mooney said. They’ll find themselves among “a wonderful group of people� and learn that “it’s nice to work with like-minded people who are just so committed to something,� which is to help others at the end of “their journey,� and their family. Some of the residents were “extremely interesting� and it was “a pleasure to meet them,� Mooney said. “We’re there to be with them and [attend to] whatever their needs are,� she continued. “It’s been very, very heartwarming.� Mooney said she tries “to buddy up as much as possible� the volunteers so that there’s two people at the hospice all the time when there’s a resident to be taken care of, but that can be difficult for overnight stays, and “sometimes weekends are tricky.�

we went home that night. There was a trailer fire. A girl (whose father lives in Campbellford) was living in a trailer for the summer out at Fisherman’s Paradise (Resort) and the stove caught on fire so the fund was used the same day,� he explained. Kim Blake, Paul Meier and Cathy Redden are the volunteers who make up the fund’s committee.  “In the event of a situation where there are fire victims or emergency victims, we get our direction from Tim as to what the needs are whether it is accommodation or food etc.,� commented Meier. She acknowledged “Pretty much every year there is something, someone we need to help.� Acknowledging the efforts of the firefighters, Mayor Macmillan said, “The fund is important to the community. Many people probably don’t realize how often in a year’s time it is accessed.

“We’re fortunate we have the program. The firefighters maintain this . . . and the members on the committee help. It is a valuable service that is unfortunately needed.� Trent Hills CAO Mike Rutter agreed: “The fund reaches people at the time of their greatest need when they have no other option, nowhere else to go.  “Having volunteers that will be woken up in the middle of the night in the worst possible weather and the worst possible situations and they deal with people who are emotionally spent . . . to have their compassion and be able to help out with financing when people really have no other option, it’s really valuable.�  The fund currently has about $51,000, which as Meier pointed out, “In a major emergency it would be gone in a flash.� Anyone wishing to donate can contact Meier at 705-653-1606.


Campbellford high school students successfully create a sign for local businessman For the three students it was a learning curve they enjoyed. Tackling a project for a local business put added pressure on them to get it right. Much moreso than a classroom project, they agreed. “The sign became our priority,” said Dunkley as he explained the process. “We took the image of the diner’s logo and put it onto this com-

By Sue Dickens

News – Campbellford – In a couple of weeks, the hard work of three students at the local high school here will be on display for the world to see. Approached by a businessman in the area, three students at Campbellford District High School (CDHS) in the manufacturing technology course stepped up and responded to a request for a sign for his diner. “The students came together as a group and were in it right from the beginning,” said Brad Gay, who has been teaching at the school for the past 13 years. He was talking about Josh Dunkley, from Hoards Station, a Grade 12 student and Evan Curle, who is in Grade 9 and Riley McCredie, of Havelock, who is in Grade 11. The three students spent the past six to eight weeks in the classroom making a sign using the logo provided by Wayne Gorel, the owner of the Spring Brook Diner, which opened last December. “This is the same computer program the Canadian Mint used to design the Toonie,” commented Gay as he pointed to the equipment nearby in the classroom. It is a computer numerically controlled computer (CNC) which has a design program the students used to create the finished product. “I facilitated but for the most part the students did it on their own. The criteria here is to perfect the operation of this machine,” Gay commented. “Being able to run a machine like this is the most fun . . . just being able to run it and see all the interesting things it can do. We’re still finding out stuff we can do on this,” noted Dunkley with enthusiasm. The wood for the sign, which is made of cedar, was donated by Gorel. “My two boys went to school here,” the businessman said. “When I was cutting wood back then I took truckloads of lumber for the woodworking class. My son made a belt buckle,” he said. And so his decision to ask students to make a sign for his business was an easy one.

puter and ran a program through it,” he explained. “At first we did a smaller version for a test run.” After successfully creating a sample sign the students made the full-size version. “The most fun was watching it come together. You just see the computer create something from nothing. You take a chunk of wood and turn it into anything

you want,” commented McCredie as he held the finished product. “The most challenging part in the program design probably was that we had a couple of computer bugs,” said Curle. The sign now goes to a local paint shop where the colours of the diner’s logo will be incorporated into the finished product before it is installed on a post outside the diner.

Local singer songwriter organizing Gospel Sing, a free concert in Campbellford

Entertainment – Campbellford – Gospel Sing is a free concert to be held in Old Mill Park Campbellford thanks to the desire by local singer songwriter Roxanne Flagler Smith to share her passion for music with others. “It is a free concert, not a fundraiser. It’s just to bring the spirit of goodness into the community,” she said. “Seems like you have to pay

for everything these days . . .but this is one concert where that won’t happen,” she added, inviting everyone to bring a lawn chair and picnic lunch and enjoy the day. All of the artists will be performing for free. “It’s an offering of gospel music and all kinds of music styles from folk to bluegrass to country, secular and rap,” Flagler Smith said with excitement. She and her husband Phil Smith

have a band called Phoxy Music, so music is a big part of their lives. Last year the couple travelled to Nashville “to record a song that was our wedding vows,” which is on their latest CD “Cool Breeze”. Her desire to bring local entertainers to the community to perform is what inspired her to host Gospel Sing. Performers include Rop Rapino from Tweed, who sings contemporary gospel.

“He is a hairstylist too,” said Flagler Smith who recently opened her salon Roxy’s Hair Design Studio in Campbellford. “Ron has a beautiful male voice and will be singing gospel music as well as the music of Josh Groban and Carrie Underwood,” she said. “The duo “Hands” will also be performing. Heather and Safron are originally from Peterborough but are now living in Belleville,” said Flagler Smith. The two songwriters sing Christian and inspirational songs. “Cup of Cold Water” will be performing bluegrass, gospel and folk music. “They play and I help at the Lansdowne Christian Fellowship Church where the homeless are fed every Wednesday,” she noted. Becky Dupuis from Peterborough will be there offering something different, rap. “Mercy of God Worship Singers”, also from Peterborough, will be performing country gospel. “I’m trying to promote the talents of many artists in this area,” said Flagler Smith. All of the artists will be bringing their CDs to the event. “Second Chance Ministries is my charity and is sponsoring the event,” said Flagler Smith whose passion for music

began at a very young age when she starting by singing Christian music and had her first media experience at the age of eight on the TV show, Gospel Echoes. She recorded her first album with the southern gospel music group “The Master’s”, produced by the Oak Ridge Boys, Dwayne Allen and Joe Bonsall, in Nashville, Tennessee. She has appeared in concert at the Grand Ole-Opry in the Ryman Auditorium and has

won many awards with her music. “Gospel Sing is the same day as Chrome on the Canal so folks can wander up here to enjoy our music,” said Flagler Smith. It will be held on Saturday, July 4th from noon to 8 p.m. If it rains the concert will be held at Glad Tidings Pentecostal Church, 71 Bridge Street West. “We just wanted to do something for the community that is nice,” she concluded.


Retiring board members thanked for their contribution to Campellford hospital

News – Campellford – “I will miss you all,” said an emotional Jill Stewart who is among those retiring from the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Board. They were all acknowledged for their volunteer efforts at the hospital’s Annual General Meeting held Thursday evening.

Stewart is joining Norah McGowan, president of the Auxiliary to the Campbellford Memorial Hospital, David Carlaw and Patrick Sheridan in their retirement. “Jill has been on the board for 10 years and we got her to stay an extra year,” said board Chair Tim Chennette. “I can’t say how much I’ve learned from you,” he added as he presented her with a plaque and a jacket with the hospital logo. Stewart was board chair for two years, vice-chair for two years and past chair for one year. She recalls why she wanted to be a member of the volunteer board in the first place. “I had retired and was looking for something I truly believed in, had been on many other boards and volunteer committees and I just felt the hospital, because of my nursing background and health training, was really something I wanted to pursue,”

she said. Stewart was a nurse at the Campbellford hospital for many years. She said her retirement is bittersweet. “I will really, really miss the board, the people who are on it and the things we do for the hospital,” she said. “But I doubt this will be my last thing I will do for the hospital. I will probably get involved in other things that are hospital related.” She is looking forward to spending more time with her family. “I am extremely busy now with five grandchildren that I try to help and they are from Ottawa to Niagara Falls so I am on the road a lot looking after things when they need me,” she said with a big smile. Chennette also presented McGowan with

a plaque. “Nora you certainly added value to our meetings and we certainly appreciate all that you have done while you were with us,” he said during the presentation. The other two board members were not at the meeting. The incoming board members are: Nancy French, Kevin Huestis and Craig Hitchman.

Norah McGowan, president of the Auxiliary to the Campbellford Hospital is also retiring and was presented with a plaque for her work as a hospital board member. Chair Tim Chennette talked about her important contribution to the board. Photo: Sue Dickens

Hastings road toll tradition continues

The bright yellow Lions Club vests might be gone but the road toll tradition continues in Hastings thanks to Community Care Northumberland. Its local volunteers from Hastings and other parts of Trent Hills were stationed at the intersection of Front and Bridge Streets Friday evening and Saturday to raise funds and promote the services provided by the active and vital community organization. In the photo Diane Menzies, a volunteer driver from Community Care’s Trent Hills office in Campbellford, takes up her spot just north of the lights on Bridge Street. For years the road toll was run by the Hastings Lions Club, but with the club ending over 40 years of service to the community at the end of June, the club has passed the road toll torch to Community Care.

Once there was a Little Mouse who was busy when not sleepy Award-winning author and illustrator Kim Fernandes recently paid a visit to the Campbellford Library, where she read some of her books and then had children, such as Tyler Thompson, do a three-dimensional art project. It involved using plasticine to create pictures for inside a CD case. Both her parents are illustrators, and she worked with her mother, Eugenie Fernandes, on the Little Mouse series of children’s books. Her favourite medium is a plastic polymer that she uses to build scenes in layers, which are baked in an oven to harden, and then photographed. Photo: John Campbell

“Just wrong,” Mayor denounces planned Hydro One sell-off By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - You can add Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Mayor Ron Gerow’s voice to the chorus of anger and dissent the provincial government’s planned Hydro One privatization has unleashed. The passage of the Liberal government’s omnibus budget

Hydro Public, a coalition opposed to the privatization initiative which Premier Kathleen Wynne says will be used to help pay for infrastructure projects, particularly big ticket subway plans in Toronto and the provincial debt. Oversight of Hydro One by Continued on page 35

Cheese - tasty and full of essential nutrients As with all other milk products, cheese is a natural source of several essential nutrients. Cheddar, Mozzarella and Swiss cheeses contain as many as 9, including calcium, vitamin A, niacin and vitamin B12. Bone and tooth development, maintenance of night vision, normal growth, red blood cell formation... the list of benefits associated with the nutrients that can be found in cheese goes on and on.

While it’s important to make sure that we don’t consume too much fat, it’s equally important to get all the nutrients we need every day. Cheese can be a higher source of fat than other milk products. However, its high overall nutrient content makes it a valuable food that can be enjoyed in moderation. There’s a wide variety of cheeses on the market, with various levels of fat content.

independent officers of the legislature disappear with passage of the budget bill; that means the auditor general and the financial accountability officer will no longer be able to look at the utility’s books or its operations and consumers would no longer be able to appeal to the provincial ombudsman. No longer will people be able to apply for access to information about Hydro One through the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act nor would the salaries of top officials be publicly disclosed. The integrity commissioner would no longer be able to review Hydro One official’s expense accounts. “In other words, transparency and public accountability would end [and] Ontarians would truly be in the dark with respect to Hydro One operations,” says Katrina Miller of Keep Hydro Public. “Perhaps more significant is the simple fact that the provincial government has no mandate from the people of Ontario to make a sale of this magnitude,” Miller said. “This may explain why the government chose to put the Hydro One sale inside its 2015-2016 budget bill and push it through the legislature with minimal opportunity for public input.” “There are a huge number of questions here,” adds Gerow. “There were a whole bunch of things in that budget and there was no consultation and that’s wrong,” he said. “If we don’t speak back and give them the okay then we’re to blame. “I’m worried about hydro rates and where they’re going and not just where the power is going to come from,” he said. Mayor Gerow noted one conversation he had from a township resident who was pulling up stakes and moving to British Columbia and learned that one of the reasons for the move was the skyrocketing price of hydro in Ontario. “People are starting to look at these things,” he said. “They’re going to pay off the debt and rates are still geared to increase by 45 per cent. There is something not right there. If you’re going to pay the bill the cost should be going down.” To add “insult to injury” Gerow says Queen’s Park is going to use billions of dollars to pay for new transit infrastructure in Toronto. “How has eastern Ontario gained? There are huge issues here that the government doesn’t care about; they have not consulted with us and that’s the part that’s going to get them in deep trouble.” Ontarians are the real stakeholders in Hydro One and they have been ignored and dismissed, Gerow said. “That’s dead wrong.” Adds Miller of Keep Hydro Public: “If democracy means anything we must stop this sale.”

Warkworth Family Feud Committee donates to Percy school News – Warkworth – The Warworth Family Feud Committee levelled the playing field so to speak thanks to their recent donation to Percy Centennial Public School (PCPS). A cheque for $500 was presented to the school and it has been used to purchase much needed outdoor sports equipment. Dave Crawford, the school’s principal was joined by a number of students who greeted members of the committee on the front walkway of their school recently to thank them for the donation. “We needed to replenish the equipment and this incredible generosity from Family Feud, which I didn’t know about, is much appreciated,” said Crawford. He acknowledged the efforts of Jennifer Meades, a parent who is chair of the school council, who suggested how the money could best be used for the students. Family Feud committee mem-

bers Cherie Whelan and her husband Jake were there as well to see just what their dollars purchased. Thomas Cudmore, a Grade 6 student at Percy, who likes to play baseball and soccer commented, “I like this equipment a lot.” Gabe Whalen, also in Grade 6, who enjoys playing play football, hockey and soccer, agreed. “I think it’s fabulous,” he said. Classmate Rada Biaroza, who likes swimming and karate, concurred. “I might do some soccer this summer,” she added as she eyed the large bags of sports equipment on display. Fundraising is done by the committee in a variety of ways including a bowling tournament which is usually held the third weekend in April at Trent Valley Lanes in Campbellford. “We always leave it up to the winners of that tournament to decide where the money will go. This time it was the Fairman

family (Peter and Renee) and they chose Percy school,” she explained. The Warkworth Family Feud Committee was started in 2008 by the Whalens and soon after others joined the group. Today the committee is made up of the Whalens and John and Penny Semlitch. “We have organized euchre, bowling, golf, baseball and hockey tournaments over the years and we encourage the teams to be made up of family members,” noted Cherie. “Our most popular and successful events are the bowling and hockey. To date we have raised close to $20,000 which has all been donated to the community of Warkworth,” she explained. Recipients have included the Warkworth Skatepark, PCPS music program, the Warkworth Park, Percy Minor Hockey Association, Friends of the Warkworth Arena and more.

Trent Hills teenager signed by OHL’s Kingston Frontenacs ing whatever it takes [to make the team], I think I do have a chance,” Brahaney said. Getting a deal done “was really special” and it made him feel “honoured,” he said. “We’re thrilled,” said his mother, Julie. She and her husband Kevin will be sad to see their son leave home long before he would have to attend university, “but we are so happy for him, because it’s everything he’s worked so hard to do,” she said. Brahaney trains regularly in Peterborough and for the past two years he has worked with Tracy Tutton, a technical skating specialist who has been employed by a handful of NHL teams, including the Toronto Maple Leafs, to help their players become better. “She’s fantastic,” Julie Brahaney said. The Brahaneys have also been helped in preparing for their son’s future by a fam“It’s pretty cool to be in the OHL but to have [Hockey Hall of Famer] Doug Gilmour as ily adviser, Andrew Maloney, you’re first GM is cooler,” says Jakob Brahaney, who recently signed a contract with the whose sports management Kingston Frontenacs of the Ontario Hockey League.

“He sets us up with the people that we need,” Julie said. Lending Jakob a hand to pursue his dream of playing in the NHL has become almost a fulltime job for his parents, who have two other children. It’s put “a lot of miles on the car,” taken up a lot of their time, and cut into their social life but it was

all by choice, she said. “We enjoy it very much and it’s fun to see your kids do something that they’re really good at.” They’ve also seen their son grow as a person and acquire numerous skills that he can use outside hockey, such as managing time and handling inter-

views. “He’s learning a lot about life,” Julie said. Jakob is looking forward to proving he can fill one of the openings on the Frontenacs’ blueline corps when training camp opens. He’s already registered to attend classes at a high school in Kingston.

Three-on-three OT coming to ACH this season By Bill Freeman

Sports - Norwood – There will be some big changes this season in the Allan Cup Hockey (ACH) league which includes the Norwood J.J. Stewart Vipers. The changes, which include three-on-three overtime play, a balanced 24-game schedule and giving teams three points for a win, are designed to “reflect new energies being brought into the league to increase fan appeal and support.” The changes were announced by the ACH during the Ontario Hockey Association’s awards celebration in Hamilton where Norwood Vipers captain and star Darren Doherty was officially named the Ontario Hockey Association’s Senior Player of the Year. The balanced 2015-16 schedule is helped out by the addition of two new franchises in Hamilton and Thorold. The Hamilton franchise also announced that they will call themselves the Steelhawks, a nod to the former Hamilton Steelhawks OHL team which featured players like Keith Primeau, and will wear black and

gold, a tribute to the Hamilton Tigers, the last senior team to play in the mountain city from 1932 to 1954. Toe Blake, Art Child and Herbie Cain were former Tigers. During the upcoming season, teams will receive three points for a regulation time win; an overtime win will be worth two points with the overtime loser getting a single point. The three-on-three overtime format is completely new for the ACH but has been piloted by other leagues at times including the AHL. The overtime period will remain at five minutes with each team icing three skaters and goalies. If the extra frame ends in a tie there will be a shoot-out. The ACH has also decided to restructure its playoff format. The league voted to eliminate the seventh place team from the playoffs with the fifth and sixth place teams playing a one-game, sudden-victory game to decide who will play a best-of-three series against the regular season’s fourth place team. The winner of that series will then be classified as the fourth seed in the ACH semi-final.

ACH commissioner Brent Ladds was bullish on the changes. “They will do a great deal to enhance the image of the league as well as generate fan interest. During the awards gala, the new Steelhawks franchise revealed a little bit more about the club including the fact that its first player commitment is former NHL first round draft pick Jason Ward who also captained the Hamilton Bulldogs AHL team and was that league’s MVP. Ward has played in the ACH before, helping the Dundas Real McCoys to an Allan Cup championship. Another first round draft NHL draft, Jason Soules, will be behind the bench as coach and former Peterborough Pete and Hamilton native Brent Pope will be director of hockey operations. Soules was an original member of the OHL Steelhawks’ franchise and was drafted fifteenth by the Edmonton Oilers. The ACH will include defending champion Dundas, Brantford, Stoney Creek, Norwood, Hamilton, Thorold and Whitby.

She has fostered and fed not just her litter but some rescued kittens too. Dora is a very special easy going, pretty girl that was abandoned at a local home just north of town and yes she was pregnant. All but one of her kittens have been adopted and now this will be her last litter, Dora will be spayed and ready to go to her forever home. If you are looking for a cat that gets along with other cats and dogs, this is your girl. Let’s find this beautiful Calico a home to call her own.

Wet sleds – Watercross comes to Stoco

By Brett Mann

Sports - Stoco - Blue clouds of snowmobile exhaust and the un-muffled scream of two-stroke engines signalled the first Ontario Watercross Race on Stoco Lake last weekend. Seventy-six racers competed in a variety of classes on a sunny summer day at Trudeau’s Park. The race involves running pretty much standard snowmobiles around a water track about five hundred feet in diameter and getting the machines safely back to dry land. As three or four racers revved their motors on the beach and leapt out onto the water about two hundred spectators watched from the bleachers. It appeared that one machine out of each heat slipped beneath the surface and had to be towed back to shore as their riders treaded water. “We’re the only company in Ontario and there’s another small circuit in Quebec,” says Kelly Hall, race organizer and owner, with her husband Jason Bidan of Port Sydney-based Ontario Watercross Racing. “Some of the racers will be racing in upwards of three classes. We have an open amateur class, a semi-pro with 600cc machines and under, or an 800cc class. We’re also doing a women’s class, an open amateur.” The company runs four races per year and today at Trudeau’s Park is the season opener. Other races this season are scheduled for Midland, Penetanguishene and Gravenhurst. “We’ll also be doing demonstrations at the TORC boat races at Gull Lake and two demonstrations on July 1at Port Sydney and Bracebridge,” says Ms. Hall who has become a racer herself this year. She points out that the sport originated in the US about 35 years ago. The modifications to machines for watercross racing are not particularly extensive, but there’s a lot of tech.”

Wet sleds – Watercross comes to Stoco

Continued from page B1

Electrical systems and seats are removed and a flotation buoy must be attached to the handlebars to help locate sunken sleds. No flotation modifications are allowed. “from there it’s pretty much gearing and clutching,� notes Hall. She reports that a “few of the pros� help out as volunteers for the race and that today racers have come from as far away as New York State. Given that snowmobiles were not designed (intentionally) to fly across the surface of a lake it is not surprising that not all of them make it. “It’s very frequent to have to have machines hauled out,� says Hall. “We lose one on every four-person heat.�

These machines are “mostly� dedicated to racing and their owners will have regular sleds for winter snowmobiling. Racing rules require the use of bio-degradable chaincase oil, closed loop cooling systems and one-way venting valves on fuel tanks. “The course is 325 feet long and 500 feet across and the race is done within four or five minutes,� Hall explains. Cash prizes, sponsor prizes and certificates of participation are offered. This weekend is the first such competition in the area and Ms. Hall is impressed with Stoco Lake and surroundings. “Trudeau’s Park is fantastic. We want to thank them and two other sponsors, Parkinson’s Coach

Lines and Tru North Tile (her thank the town of Tweed for husband’s business.) I also welcoming us.�

Having to be hauled out of the water is a common and almost expected Modified snowmobiles have electrical systems and seats removed leaving “pretty much gearing and occurrence in watercross racing. clutching,� says race organizer Kelly Hall.

Barrel racing show in Warkworth will feature ‘the best of the best’ By John Campbell

Sports - Warkworth - The National Barrel Horse Association (NBHA), the largest barrel racing organization in the world, and the Ontario Barrel Racing Association (OBRA) are joining forces for this year’s Warkworth Western Weekend. “It’s a big deal, we’re pretty excited to get them here,” says Tina Spooner, organizer of the two-day event that will take place July 4-5 at the Warkworth Fairgrounds, with Percy Agricultural Society serving as the host. They “combined some shows together to make it a big show.” Entrants will be coming from across Ontario and Quebec, as well as the United States.

“They’re the best of the best,” Spooner said, and local riders will get a chance to compete against them. There are different classes, based on age, experience and performance, and some of those scheduled will offer up points that riders try accumulate over the course of a season in a bid to capture top spot in the NBHA/OBRA circuit. Spooner’s daughter, Amy Newman, 13, did that last year in her division and qualified for the NBHA Youth World Championships that will be held July 19-25 in Perry, Georgia. Admission to Warkworth Western Weekend is once again free, but there will be a charge to attend

PYNX’s Country Video Dance Saturday night in the arena, $15 at the door or $10 in advance. New this year, are youth versions of the big screen dance, which will run from 5 to 6:45 p.m. for youngsters 12 and under, and from 7 to 9 p.m. for teens 13 to 18. The tickets are $5 in advance or $7 at the door. All tickets can be purchased before the event at Newman Insurance & Styles by Tanya in Campbellford, Captain’s Table and Home Hardware in Hastings, and Teri and Co Salon & Spa, and Warkworth Farm Supply in Warkworth. The fair board will also hold a barbecue both days of the event as a fundraiser.

A visit to the world’s largest operating salt mine

Lifestyle – My wife and I recently spent a couple of days in the picturesque town of Goderich, which is located in western Ontario, north of Grand Bend and south of Kincardine on the shore of Lake Huron. We were drawn to this destination by its having the world’s largest operating salt mine. We soon found that it was, indeed, quite a sight to simply view the humungous surface storage silos and the blue elevator shafts that decorate much of Goderich’s harbour area. However, we didn’t find any mounds of salt, for the operation actually occurs far underground, at a depth of about 1800 feet, and the Sifto Canada mine, which is now a part of the American-owned Compass Minerals Company, apparently extends for more than two miles into Lake Huron and averages a width of more than a mile. To put this into perspective, the salt mine is about as deep as the CN Tower is high, and massive trucks carry the blasted rock salt through a series of large underground tunnels into crushing and screening operations before it’s then hoisted to the surface via customized skiffs. I hoped to get an up close and personal guided underground tour of the operation, but that was not to be. In fact, there are no tours available to the public, for the work continues nonstop, 24 hours every day, except when the lake freezes and shipments by the massive freighters become impossible. There’s, of course, a real concern with work stoppages and with liability, so the Compass Mineral Company doesn’t seem very anxious to get into the touring business. I talked with James Cox, Goderich’s Economic Development/Tourism Coordinator, and with tourism board member Kim Burgsma, and both agreed that even more should be done to celebrate the town’s renowned salt mine, and there are plans to initiate a “Salt Festival” in the future. There’s already a small piece of rock salt available as a memento, and it’s attached to a piece of cardboard that explains the importance of the salt mine to the community, for this mine produces “more than 45 per cent of all the rock salt mined in Canada”. I even suggested that they might also consider having some kind of salt statue, just as Sudbury has its well-known “Big Nickel” statue to recognize its nickel mining. I learned that Goderich’s salt was actually discovered purely by accident, for a local flour mill owner, Sam Platt, had begun to drill for oil in 1866, and what he actually found instead was an immense salt bed, North America’s first recorded one. Once the word got out, there was a salt rush in this area, and by 1867 there were 12 independent salt wells that dotted the Maitland River Valley. It was the late 1950s before Sifto Canada completed the construction of its first deep mineshaft

in Goderich, and others have been added here since. This gigantic mining operation is now the area’s major employer, and it’s estimated that about 23,000 tons of salt are produced here every day. Our area gets its road salt from this mine. Other items, including table salt, animal salt licks, water softener salt, and salt swimming pool sanitizers are all produced here, too (the impurities found in the coarser road salt are removed in the company’s large evaporators that are also located in Goderich). I found that I had a great view of the salt mining operation and the harbour area of Goderich when I walked along the town’s Tiger Dunlop Heritage Trail (this trail is named after the town’s founder) and crossed the Menesetung Walking Bridge. I also found other great views along Goderich’s waterfront and in Lighthouse Park. As we drove around the town that’s often referred to as “the prettiest town in Canada”, we soon discovered that there was much more to see here than just its mammoth salt mine. The downtown area is dominated by an octagonal traffic circle that’s referred to as “The Square” which, you may recall was severely damaged by a tornado in 2011, and its “spokes” will lead you through much of Goderich. We enjoyed the fact that the downtown parking was plentiful and free, and there’s a great variety of shops and restaurants. We were pleasantly surprised by our dining experiences at both West Street Willy’s at 42 West St. on the way to the beach and at “Thyme on 21” at 80 Hamilton St. across from the Visitors’ Centre. We stayed at a beautiful boutique

Goderich’s Menesetung Walking Bridge on the Tiger Dunlop Heritage Trail.

hotel, Samuels Hotel, which was located just across the Maitland River in Saltford, and we certainly took the time to check out some of Goderich’s other major points of interest, too, including its Livery Theatre (a big stage theatre in a small town setting), Marine Museum (on the Goderich Harbour), Huron Historic Gaol (where prisoners such as James Donnelly and Steven Truscott were incarcerated), and the Huron County Museum, where informative exhibits depict the early settlement and development of this area. We also enjoyed participating in the traditional sunset viewing by the

lake, for this is a very popular activity here. We soon discovered that we could view a double sunset by taking a photo of the sunset along the shore of Lake Huron and then quickly ascending the staircase (with its more than 200 steps) found at the southern end

of the waterfront roadway near Lioness Park to get yet another great sunset view from this much higher lookout point. It’s quite an experience! For More Information: <www.goderich.ca>; <www.compassminerals. com>.

Hadfield to officially open Hastings Field House July 3 By John Campbell

News - Hastings – Chris Hadfield, the Canadian astronaut who become an international icon while serving as commander of the International Space Station, will speak at the official opening of the Hastings Field House July 3. “I’m really looking forward” to being part of the ceremony, “knowing what it means to the community” to have a new recreational facility, Hadfield said in a telephone interview from Alberta. “I’ll have a long question and answer period as part of the presentation [and], hopefully, we’ll have a chance to meet as many people as possible.” He’ll also perform a song with 10 local schoolchildren. Hadfield agreed to be the guest of honour after being approached by Campbellford-Seymour Community Foundation executive director Martha Murphy who heard him speak at a Community Foundations of Canada confer-

ence in Calgary in early May. “We are so fortunate to have such a high profile speaker at the opening,” Trent Hills community development officer Lynn Phillips said. He’s “the perfect speaker to ‘launch’ the new Hastings Field House.” The event and his “inspirational words will promote both this facility as well as the community vision for further recreation facility initiatives.” The field house “is the first completed project in the [municipality’s] recreation redevelopment plans and it is important that the momentum continues,” she said. Admission is “pay what you can at the door” but with attendance limited to about 2,000, “we are encouraging people to preregister” at <www.trenthills. ca> or <http://flourishcampaign.ca>, Phillips said. Attendees are advised to bring folding lawn chairs but 200 reserved seats

are available for $125 apiece. The price includes a signed copy of Hadfield’s An Astronaut’s Guide to Life as well as a photo op and a chance to have the book “personalized” by Hadfield. Copies of his book will also be available for purchase. The event starts at 7 p.m but Phillips recommended arriving well before then to find a parking spot and to check out the new facility, which is now expected to open for public use sometime in August. Information will be provided on its services and fees. Chris Hadfield became an international icon in 2013 when he used social media awhile aboard the International Space Station to connect to people on Earth. The first Canadian to command a space station, the retired astronaut keeps busy in a variety of ways. He will be the guest of honour for the official opening of the Hastings Field House July 3.

Former astronaut says space flight has him ‘optimistic’ about Earth’s future music, show photos of Earth, and talk about life in a space station that caused his popularity to soar. His experiences led him to write two books that made the New York Times bestsellers list. The first one, An Astronaut’s Guide to Life on Earth, is now being turned into a pilot for a television show by Warner Brothers in Hollywood, he said. Now a part-time professor at the University of Waterloo as well as a member of Canada’s newly formed Space Advisory

News - Hastings - Since retiring from the Canadian Astronaut Corps in July 2013, Chris Hadfield has continued to circumnavigate the globe, albeit at a pace and elevation nowhere near that when he spent 144 days aboard the International Space Station. He completed more than 2,300 orbits around the planet and travelled almost 100 million kilometres. But it was his using social media to play

Board, Hadfield, 55, travels the world on one-man speaking tours. He’s also working on various documentaries as well as doing a YouTube series on the history of science. Hadfield, whose rendition of David Bowie’s Space Oddity has been viewed more than 25 million times on YouTube, has performed with the Windsor Symphony Orchestra and has a concert lined up with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra. An album of music he recorded on the space station is due to be released in early fall.

“I want to stay useful and productive,” Hadfield said in an interview to promote his talk at the official opening of the Hastings Field House July 3. “I enjoy what I’m up to.” But as busy as it sounds, it’s nowhere near as busy as when he was an astronaut for 21 years. “Most people don’t know how hard astronauts work, it’s relentless,” he said – seven days a week for decades, “working long hours. It’s just an immense amount of work to be able competently do the things astronauts are asked to do.” Hadfield said he was “extremely lucky to have been asked to do many things,” such as be Canada’s first space walker. To have that event commemorated on the back of the five-dollar bill “is surreal.” And to be the first Canadian to command a spaceship was “a huge ... responsibility but also a tremendous honour and thrill,” he said. The “realization of dreams,” which turned out to be “more difficult and infinitely more delightful than expected ... may be the most memorable part” of his having been an astronaut. Hadfield said “space flight has almost always been commercial,” but only now is it beginning to be “privatized” with wealthy citizens having the opportunity to go where only astronauts went before at government

expense. “I’m all for it,” he said. “It’s a natural progression” that’s been followed “in many other industries,” in which government does the initial research and development work and then turns it over to private enterprise when it becomes commercially viable. That will open the door to more people experiencing what he did, which he welcomes. “To go around the world that many times makes me optimistic and gives me a better sense of patience and perspective,” Hadfield said. “It’s easier to be myopic” when you’re land bound, and think that your “little square of the world is ... the only part that matters,” and you “tend to judge everything” based on a “particular set of cultural beliefs.” But when viewed from high above the Earth “the sacrosanct nature of life” is apparent and what divides people “disappears because it’s a completely artificial, self-generated barrier,” Hadfield said. A lot of what he is doing now is his “best attempt to express that,” to change people’s thinking and have them adopt a “global view.” To see the world “for what it truly is, I consider it a responsibility ... to do my best to let people perhaps see things a little more clearly through my eyes,” he said.

Percy student looking to become teen world champion barrel racer Sports - Warkworth – Just 13 years old, Amy Newman has a chance to make local history: be an international champion barrel racer. She gave herself the opportunity by piling up firsts and seconds on the National Barrel Horse Association (NBHA) tour last season, which qualified her for the World Youth Championships that will take place July 19-25 at Perry, Georgia. She’s been racing since age five, and years of competition and constant practice have turned her into an extremely good racer. It also helped to have a rodeo veteran, Krista Heffernan, be her mentor and a good partner in Chiclet Belly Stopping

Daisy, a quarter horse who’s “a brat” but also “very competitive. “I probably wouldn’t be as good as a rider and Chiclet be the horse she is,” without Heffernan, Newman said. The good working relationship she has with her mount was put in peril last winter when Chiclet took ill with the strangles, an infection that constricts a horse’s airways, but she recovered and appears to be her old self. The Grade 8 Percy Centennial Public School student was “really nervous” for their first show in 2015, but Newman “was surprised how well she came back from being sick. She was running top time. I was happy.” She wasn’t so happy soon after acquiring Chiclet three years ago. “She

went crazy,” Newman said. “It took me about a year to get her not crazy.” She rode her for pleasure before getting into the “really heavy running” last year when they “really clicked” and collected enough points on the tour to finish first for the season. Technically a pony, at just under 14.2 hands, the nine-year-old Chiclet is quicker than the other horses in moving around the barrels. “She’s probably the smallest one running out there,” said Newman’s mother, Tina Spooner. She can also be the most cantankerous at times. “Mares tend [to have a] very strong personality” and Chiclet has shown a foul disposition on occasion.

Documentary being filmed at Aron Theatre members, volunteers and community stakeholders. Canadian co-operatives provide goods and services to over 18 million members. By exploring the co-operative experience in Canada this film hopes to shine a light on the hopeful future of the co-op model. Aron Co-op President Mark White

“She’s bucked Amy off, and reared,” when she gets in a mood, Spooner said. She was prepared to return Chiclet to her owner “because she was psycho” but her daughter “cried and cried,” so she relented, and subsequently arranged for Heffernan to work with the two of

them. It paid off. Last year Spooner was offered $25,000 for Chiclet but “she’s worth way more” and the family isn’t interested in selling her. “We wouldn’t trade her for anything,” Spooner said.

said, “We are excited and proud to be part of this project. Our Aron has been the subject of university research, local, national and international media articles, and now a documentary movie. We know we have a special little theatre in our town, but honestly, I am amazed at how it is being touted far beyond our community.”

The Aron Theatre Co-operative will be showcased in the film. Smolski will be getting a local perspective on the theatre with interviews and filming of audiences and co-op members at Friday evening’s movie (SPY), and again when the Aron and Team Eagle present Buddy Holly Live! & The Rockabilly Riot concert Saturday evening. Behind the scenes shooting will be done with Aron board and committee

News - Tweed - On a June Friday that saw another major federal funding commitment to the Trent-Severn Waterway system, MP Daryl Kramp announced $610,000 in support of the Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance (EOTA). At an EOTA meeting in Tweed council chambers, Mr. Kramp reported that in the 2014 to 2016 time period, the federal government has committed $10 million across Canada for the National Trails Program.  â€œToday’s announcement is actually an additional funding, locally and regionally through the Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance, through the EODP (Eastern Ontario Development Program), a combination of funding directly through the National Trails Program and our local Community Futures and I cannot say enough about our local CFDCs,â€? said Mr. Kramp in his brief address. Of the announced $610,000 funding, $270,000 comes from the National Trails Program and $340,000 flows from the federal Eastern Ontario Development Program

Mr. Kramp noting that he travels the trails himself, and for years was involved with snowmobiling, cross country skiing and four wheeling. The one trail use he has not tried is horse riding. “Horses and I don’t see eye-to-eye,� said Kramp to chuckles from the assembled crowd.

through the Frontenac and North Hastings Community Futures Development Corporations.

“You folks have been very, very aggressive in stepping up to the plate to not only ensure you get a share of that money but to use it exceptionally well.  An accompanying press release notes that the funding will improve trail infrastructure, encourage job creation, link communities and increase recreational opportunities. Quoting JoAnne Farquhar, President of the National Trails Coalition Board, the press release states “... trail user groups can now apply for project funding to facilitate trail building, refurbishment and upgrade activities that will

 Kramp praised “local people making local decisions. People that know what they’re talking about.â€? Hastings County Warden Rick Phillips commented that the county has been a great supporter of the trail system and that he sees no reason why this will not continue.

be beneficial to the long term sustainability of all forms of trail-based activities across Canada.â€? David Gerow, Chair of EOTA told the group, “Our organization is extremely happy and thrilled to be receiving this amount of funding from the federal government to match the dollars that have been raised through our local municipalities and governments ... now that we have some new regs from the MTO for ATVs, side-by-sides and so on, that they’re going to be able to get on the trails, it’s going to be an-

other boost to our economics.â€? EOTA trails range from Algonquin Park to the Bay of Quinte. The Alliance estimates the trails draw 25,000 users and bring in $6 million to the economy annually.  â€œYou folks have been very, very aggressive in stepping up to the plate to not only ensure you get a share of that money but to use it exceptionally well. I’ve seen it on so many occasions,â€? said

Twilight track and field meet set for July 16

Help available for seniors with odd jobs around the house News – Campbellford – Community Care Northumberland (CCN) offers community-based home support services for seniors and adults who have special needs or are recovering from illness or injury and can no longer perform some basic household tasks. “Our Home Help and Maintenance program is designed to help maintain clients in their own homes in their own communities,� said Trish Baird,

CCN executive director. â€œOur brokered workers perform tasks for our clients to help them maintain both the interior and exterior of their homes.â€?

Sports - Brighton – If you can’t make it to the Pan-Am Games in Toronto, there’s still an opportunity to see a live track and field event this summer, and it’s happening right here in Brighton. Plans are in the works for the first-ever twilight meet at East Northumberland Secondary School (ENSS) and you’re invited: to watch from the stands or compete. The call went out by email early last week. School track and field coach Anne Falla advised how the Brighton Soccer Club is open to moving “their game from ENSS to KEP (King Edward Park), so we can go ahead and host a twilight meet.� But, she added, “I’m going to need a lot of help.� The reaction was swift and positive. By the end of the week, everyone replied. “It seems as though everybody is ready to step up and help out,� said Falla. A flyer was sent out to Bay of Quinte high schools as well as ENSS feeder schools and will soon be posted around town. “This is our first one and I don’t know how it will go,� she said. “But summer nights are a

home maintenance and repair jobs. This may be an occasional or one-time only job and may include yard work, odd jobs, and heavy housecleaning.  The brokered workers are reimbursed for their time by their clients at the rate of $14 per hour and are fully screened by CCN.   For more information contact the CCN office in Campbellford to discuss qualifying for this program at 705-6531411.

fee, athletes can compete in a number of events. Registration begins at 5 p.m. with events starting at 6:30 p.m. On the track, there’ll be women and men’s open competitions including steeplechase, hurdles, relays, 100-metre dash and 800-metre run. Field events will include shot put, triple jump and high jump. As well, a special free event, the 80-metre dash, will be run for kids aged 12 and under. Spectators can attend for free. “They can fill the bleachers or they can compete, whatever they want to do,� says Falla. Results will be posted throughout the meet and will be listed by event and birth years. “That way, people can work out how a 45-year-old beat them or if they beat out a 17-year-old kid,� said Falla, with a grin. The evening event will be capped with a community walk around the track, a tribute to the local support for the project. “The entire Brighton community made this event possible,� said Falla. For more information, log on to the school website <www.enss. ca> or email Anne Falla at <anne_ falla@kprdsb.ca>.

great time to be out and twilight meets bring a strong sense of community to the event. Its fun and it’s a pretty special feeling seeing these kids lighting up the track when they get to do relays under the lights.� “Right now there’s a lot of excitement,� she added while confirming OFSAA bronze medalist Ben Snider and senior girls’ athlete of the year Katie Falla will both be there along with a number of ENSS athletes. Falla then mentions a recent delivery at the school: $90,000 worth of track and field equipment, paid for by the John M. & Bernice Parrott Foundation. It turns out; former school physical education director Tim Larry submitted an application for funding to outfit the new track. The balance of the $125,000 grant will pay for a building to store the equipment when it’s not in use. “It’s such an impressive collection of equipment,� said Falla. “I thought this is a great opportunity for people in the community to see this stuff and for the kids to get some use out it.� The July 16 event is open to anyone and for a $5 registration
