Silent auction, bake sale will raise money for adult programs at library By John Campbell

News - Campbellford - Silence is golden in a library but now it’s taking on a new meaning. Staff at the Campbellford Branch Library are turning it into a fundraiser. Children’s librarian/assistant CEO Brianne Parr and summer student Lindsay Bateman have planned a silent auction and bake sale to raise money for the library’s adult and senior programming “As far as I know nothing’s been done like this before [at the library],â€? Parr said. Bids are now being accepted for the dozen baskets that will remain on display at the library right up to when the auction comes to an end August 18. Each basket has a theme, such as Date Night, Back to School, Pamper Your Pet, Movie Night, and Book Lovers. All the businesses in Campbellford were approached to help out and 25 agreed to donate items for the baskets, such as gift certiďŹ cates, movie passes, and a bottle of wine. “The response has been reChildren’s librarian/assistant CEO Brianne Parr, on the right, and summer student Lindsay Bateman have planned a silent auction and bake sale to raise money for the library’s ally positive,â€?

The bake sale and end of auction will take place the same day a magician, Magical Duda, will make a return visit to the library. “We thought, hopefully, there will be lots of trafďŹ câ€? to boost sale of the baked goods and garner more bids, Parr said. The magician will be coming from Barrie to put on a one-hour show for the children, starting at 3:30 p.m., to close out the library’s Summer Reading Program “with a bang!â€? she said. “We had him over March Break and it was insane here ‌ He’s coming back with a whole new performance at all three branches.â€? About 60 children signed up for the Summer Reading Program held at Campbellford, Hastings and Warkworth.

Trent Hills acquires key properties in downtown Campbellford

The Municipality of Trent Hills now owns the stretch of green space along the east side of the Trent River in downtown Campbellford that it has long maintained. Photo: John Campbell

News - Trent Hills - The municipality has purchased two vacant pieces of land in downtown Campbellford– one along the waterfront, the other at the corner of Bridge and Front streets–at a cost of $300,000. Council formally approved their purchase using money in reserves with the passage of two bylaws at a special meeting held July 23. The municipality agreed to pay Otto Feiden $175,000 as well as provide a receipt for

a $25,000 donation to acquire a valuable stretch of open space along the Trent River that starts at 12 Front Street South. For the last two years, the land has been part of the venue for the Incredible Edibles Festival. “We already maintain it with an agreement with Mr. Feiden anyway,” Mayor Hector Macmillan said. “Rather than end up with something on that property that perhaps would be not in keeping with the goals of beautifying the

Clarification Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan did not vote against a motion in support of Keep Hydro Public at county council, as reported in the July 23 edition of the Independent. He withheld his support by abstaining because, as he explained later, he’s “undecided” at this point whether selling 60 per cent of the Crown corporation is a good thing or a bad thing. “I’m unsure,” he said. “I haven’t seen any real, true facts and figures for either side.” He’s still looking for “evidence either way.”

waterfront, we thought it best at this time, [with] the price so reasonable, to acquire it as well.” Macmillan added “currently there are no plans for it, other than what’s there.” Councillor Rosemary KelleherMacLennan noted the area “is already booked solid with vendors and attractions” for the upcoming waterfront festival. “We’re going to put it to good use right out of the gate,” she said. The property at the town’s main intersection was obtained for $125,000 along with provision of a receipt showing a donation of $49,000 by the seller, Mehdy Tahery. Feiden used to own that property as well, until selling it around 2005. The spot has been “an issue” for years since the building that once sat

there burned down and “nothing was done” with the land, Macmillan said. “There’s this gaping hole” that greets motorists as they come over the bridge, and “although there have been attempts to beautify it, there’s still a lot more that could be done with it.” With Northumberland County and Trent Hills having agreed to expansion of the bridge, subject to final approval by the province, “that land is going to be needed for road widening purposes,” he said. “It just made sense that coun-

the BIA around that.” Development of the corner lot is one of three projects the municipality has submitted to the federal government for funding through its Canada 150 Community Infrastructure Program. Acting interim CAO Lynn Phillips said previously the project’s $150,000 estimate includes “significant landscaping” and the installation of signage for tourists showing attractions and a business directory. “It would be a real showpiece for that corner,” she said in an earlier interview.

Possibilities include incorporating “an attractive messaging system,” such as a board or sign, Macmillan said. “We don’t want it to become too commercial looking, we want something nice.

News - Havelock - News that a major sewer and watermain rehabilitation project on King Street in Havelock will receive nearly $1.4 million in federal and provincial funding was more than welcome. The $2,037,236 King Street project will receive funding support from the federal government’s Small Communities Fund (SCF), a joint partnership with the province of Ontario and municipalities based on a one-third cost sharing formula. Both the federal and provincial governments will contribute $679,078, for a total of $1,368,147, with HavelockBelmont-Methuen rounding out the balance of the cost with a $679,078 contribution. The project will include the replacement of existing watermains, main line valves, sanitary sewers, sanitary manholes, storm sewers, storm manholes and catch basins within the right-of-way as well as associated roadwork. Northumberland Quinte-West MP Rick Norlock and Peterborough MPP and Minister of Agriculture Food and Rural Affairs Jeff Leal were at the Havelock Fire Station on King Street to make the announcement as part of a wave of SCF announcements across the country including one later in the day in Norwood. Norlock said the government, through the SCF program, was “investing in priority infrastructure projects that have a strong impact on the quality of life of Ontario’s residents while helping job creation and economic growth.” The funding helps “address an urgent local need for reliable and sustainable water service,” Leal added. The Minister of Agriculture said the contribution is part of the largest infrastructure investment in Ontario’s his-

tory, more than $130 million over ten years. “Without this partnership the township would not have been able to proceed with this project,” Havelock-BelmontMethuen Mayor Ron Gerow said. Funding through programs like the SCF as well as the provincial Ontario Community Infrastructure Fund (OCIF) are critical to small rural communities if they have any hope of tackling prohibitively expensive, but necessary, projects like the one on King Street or the construction of a new treated water storage facility (standpipe) which has a price tag of just over $2 million. The OCIF covers 90 per cent of the cost of projects up to $2 million, leaving municipalities to make up the ten per

cent difference; in the case of the Havelock standpipe project the local bill is a much more manageable $202,400. “These grant projects don’t come around every year and to have two is [fortunate],” Deputy-mayor Jim Martin said during an earlier discussion on applying for funding assistance. “It would be nice to take a chance. It’s so costly.” Councillor Barry Pomeroy said it was simply “scary” to contemplate financing large costly projects without assistance from upper levels of government. “We have lots and lots of needs but we are going to try and put them in place where we get the biggest bang for our buck. That speaks to why we should get behind both applications,” Gerow said.

King Street rehab gets federal-provincial cash

Water softening project gets grant support By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - A water softening project in Norwood will receive a cash boost from the joint federal-provincial Small Communities Fund (SCF). The $1,016,148 reverse osmosis project at the Norwood water treatment plant will receive $677,432 in SCF dollars with the Township of AsphodelNorwood chipping in the remaining one-third balance of $338,716. The SCF program splits the cost of eligible infrastructure programs on a one-third sharing basis. The Norwood project will aim to soften water for village users by reducing calcium levels, a longstanding issue for current and past councils, water users and operators of the system. The installation of a new water softening system will prevent the interference of hard water in the carbon dioxide process. The new system will also help to prevent future leaks and flooding. Northumberland Quinte-West MP Rick Norlock and provincial counterpart MPP Jeff Leal, also the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, joined township councillors at the water treatment plant for the official announcement of the SCF grant. Asphodel-Norwood is now part of the “new” riding of Northumberland-Peterborough South that was created following the 2012 federal election. In the aftermath of the election Asphodel-Norwood

and Otonabee South-Monaghan were shifted to the new riding much to the displeasure of local officials and long-time voters. “We are very appreciative of the opportunity the federal and provincial governments have provided us with support from the SCF,” Asphodel-Norwood Mayor Terry Low said. “It is a testament to all levels of government working together to achieve the common goal of providing clean, safe drinking water to our residents.” The water softening project was something of a left field entry into the grant application process as Asphodel-Norwood mulled over priority projects for much-needed funding support. “We’ve already done two upgrades to the water plant and it’s not as efficient as it could be. It’s a treatment system,” John Seguire of the Ontario Clean Water Agency

told council of the day as it learned more about the reverse osmosis system. “The bottom line is to soften the water to enhance the carbon dioxide system that’s installed therefore help the whole system,” Seguire explained. The conventional treatment would be to add salt, estimated at 4,200 pounds a day, and that would just “compound the issue,” he added. “That’s why we’re looking at another option. It is a much more efficient system but it’s still a cost.” The $1 billion Small Communities Fund provides funding for priority public infrastructure projects that “deliver on local needs.” Both the federal and Ontario governments will provide $272 million to support projects in communities with fewer than 100,000 residents.

Public asked for help to prevent further advance of water soldier in Trent-Severn

News - Trent-Severn - The water soldier, an invasive plant from Eurasia, continues to cause harm to native vegetation along the Trent-Severn Waterway and limit opportunities for boating and swimming. A working group that includes members from the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, Lower Trent Conservation, Parks Canada, and Trent University was formed to combat the invasive species, first discovered in the waterway near the hamlet of Trent River in 2008. It remains the only known population of water soldier in all of North America. The plant can be easily differentiated from native vegetation by its bright green, serrated leaves that resemble the top of a pineapple. The working group’s plans to

R0013392796

combat the plant’s spread include extensive mapping of its population, mechanical harvesting, and herbicide treatment in the fall. The public is being asked to help in a number of ways: • Report new sightings to the Invading Species Hotline, 1-800563-7711, or <www.eddmaps.org/ Ontario>. • Avoid planting water soldier in your water garden and never release any plants in a natural water body. • Avoid boating in areas infested with water soldier as that might inadvertently assist in its spreading. Waterfront property owners can help by removing water soldier by hand or using a rake. It’s expensive and does not require a special licence but this method can be ineffective for larger patches. Mechanical harvesters are ef-

fective for controlling water soldier up to two metres in depth but are expensive, and not suitable for widespread control. Either method should not be undertaken after mid-summer, as it could contribute to the plants spreading. The harvested plants should be properly disposed of well away from any water body. Chemical control is effective at controlling large patches and can be conducted within a short period, but it is moderately expensive, and can be done only by licensed contractors. A permit is required from Parks Canada and the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change.

The projection now is for waste tipping fee revenue to fall short of estimates by $330,000 by year’s end. Moore said the decline was “a volume issueâ€? unrelated to changes in tipping fees last year. “From what we’ve seen anecdotally, we believe that’s a reection on the economy,â€? she said.

He bought some corn and then also put some money into the donation jar set up at the produce stand for the CMHA. “I don’t play hockey but I have nephews who play hockey.

With changes in the way Statistics Canada collects information, “a lot of the details just aren’t available,â€? she said. “We don’t need Stats Canada to tell us who’s coming into our landďŹ ll and transfer stations.â€? Macmillan responded. “Surely we can do that. I’d like to know why our customers aren’t using us any more. “I’m concerned about jobs, that’s all. I think it’s worthwhile chasing to ďŹ nd out what’s going on,â€? he said. Councillor Gil Brocanier, mayor of Cobourg, suggested the matter could be discussed at the next meet-

ing of the county’s chief administrative officers. He noted the value of construction going on in his municipality “is higher than the previous four years so there is more new construction going on.â€? Alnwick-Haldimand Township Mayor John Logel said “another thing that could be changing is recycling.â€? Mo Pannu, director of transportation and waste, said recycling volumes are up and added that staff can look at those numbers to provide a breakdown. Many of the variances in the ďŹ nancial review were related to the timing of projects, social services program spending, and pending grants, Moore explained. The shortfalls were largely offset by revenues being better than anticipated in other areas, such as money earned on investments, and savings in various programs, including social services and Ontario Works. Most of the county’s ten departments had spent close to half of their overall budgets by the six-month mark, “which is a good sign that we are on track,â€? Moore said.

OPINION

Turkey joins the war - sort of Partial sale of Hydro One not Editorial - Last Friday, Turkey joined the war against Islamic State (IS), the terrorist-run entity that now controls eastern Syria and western Iraq. After four years of leaving the border open for supplies and recruits to reach IS, the Turkish government sent planes to bomb three Gwynne Dyer IS targets in Syria. At the same time, Ankara ended a four-year ban on its anti-IS “coalition” allies using the huge Incirlik airbase near the Syrian border. There was rejoicing in Washington, since coalition aircraft (mostly American) will now be much closer to IS targets in Syria, and Turkey will also presumably close its border with Syria at last. But there may be less to this change than meets the eye. On Saturday, Turkey broke a two-year ceasefire with the PKK, a Kurdish revolutionary group that fought a 30-year war to establish a separate state in the Kurdish-majority southeast of Turkey. In fact, since then Turkey has carried out considerably more air strikes against the PKK than it has against IS. The Turkish army has even shelled territory controlled by the PYD, the Syrian branch of the PKK, although the PYD has managed to drive IS troops out of most of the Kurdish areas of northern Syria. So which war is President Recep Tayyip Erdogan really planning to fight, the one against Islamic State or his own private war with the Kurds? And why now? The only person who knows the answers is Erdogan, and he’s not saying. But you can work it out if you try. Erdogan has spent more than a decade subverting a secular and democratic system and establishing his own unchallengeable power. At first he was responding to real popular demands for equal civil rights for religious people and for an improvement in living standards. He delivered on his promises, and won three successive elections by increasing majorities. But he reduced the once-free mass media to subservience, undermined the independence of the judiciary, and staged show trials of his opponents. He also allowed his own political associates to engage in massive corruption. As his power grew, moreover, he began to indulge his obsessions. He is a deeply conservative Sunni Muslim who shares the widespread Sunni belief that Shia Muslims are not just heretics, but heretics whose power is a growing threat.

From the start of the Syrian civil war in 2011, therefore, Erdogan supported the Sunni rebels against the regime of Bashar al Assad, which is dominated by the country’s Alawite (Shia) minority–and he didn’t much mind if the Sunni rebels were head-cutting extremists like Islamic State or not. That’s why the Turkish-Syrian border stayed open, and the coalition didn’t get access to Turkish airbases. At the same time, Erdogan opened peace negotiations with the PKK, because conservative Kurds who voted for his party on religious grounds were an important part of his electoral base. But then his party lost its majority in parliament in last month’s election. What cost him his majority was the new People’s Democratic Party (HDP), which seduced most of his Kurdish voters away. It’s liberal, pluralistic, all the things that Erdogan isn’t. But conservative Kurds had already got the religious freedoms they wanted, and the HDP was also advocating equal political rights for the Kurdish minority. Of course they switched their votes. So now, if Erdogan wants to form a coalition government (or even win a new election), he needs the support of the hard right–but they are ultranationalists who loathe his willingness to make deals with the Kurds. To win them over, therefore, he has started bombing the PKK. He might be re-starting a Turkish-Kurdish civil war (the last one killed 40,000 people), but that’s a risk he’s willing to take. And on the side he has dropped a few bombs on Islamic State to make the Americans happy. Erdogan’s problem with Washington was that it finally had the goods on him. A U.S. Special Forces raid in Syria last May killed Abu Sayyaf, the IS official in charge of selling black-market oil from IS-controlled wells into Turkey. The American troops came away with hundreds of flash drives and documents that proved that Turkish officials were deeply involved in the trade, which has been IS’s main source of revenue. Turkey has now bombed a few IS targets to show willing–but if you look at the videos, the Turkish planes are launching missiles at single buildings out in open fields, not exactly where you’d expect IS to have weapons stores and command centres. It’s as if the Turkish forces were ordered to hit targets that wouldn’t do any real damage. But least the coalition gets to use Incirlik. Is Erdogan still in cahoots with IS? Maybe. Is he actively supporting the other big Islamist group, the Nusra Front, which dominates the battle in western Syria? Yes he is, quite openly, and the difference between these two terrorist groups is only skin-deep. So if you’re expecting a radical change in the military situation in Syria–don’t. Assad is still losing slowly, the Islamist extremists are still winning, and Turkey is still playing a double game.

an automatic panacea for what ails utility By John Campbell

Editorial - It’s a curious thing, this clamour to keep Hydro One out of the hands of the private sector. The Crown corporation has earned a great deal of notoriety for underwhelming customer service and high prices that are certain to continue rising, so you would think the public would welcome being rid of the government-owned utility, in hopes that whoever ends up controlling its destiny can do a better job. But that’s not the case. There’s widespread resistance to the Liberals’ plan to sell 60 per cent of Hydro One on the stock market in stages, with the initial public offering for 15 per cent likely to take place before the end of the year. Polls show a majority of Ontarians are opposed to privatizing a majority stake in Hydro One, even though the government estimates the sale of shares could bring in a total of $9 billion, which it would use to pay down $5 billion of the utility’s debt, as well as spend $4 billion on transportation projects. Protests against the sale have come from many quarters. In addition to predictable denunciations by the NDP and the Canadian Union of Public Employees, eight independent officers of the Ontario legislature, including the ombudsman and auditor general, voiced their opposition in a joint letter two months ago. They warned “their ability to assess [Hydro One’s] value and quality of service, among other matters, would be eliminated.” The auditor general, for example, wouldn’t be able to conduct performance audits, or the ombudsman investigate public complaints. The same ombudsman, remember, who blasted the province’s largest electricity transmission and distribution company earlier this year for “outrageously bad customer service” which resulted in his office receiving 10,700 pleas for help from irate Hydro One ratepayers. The corporation “reacted in the worst way possible, with deflection and deception,” when customers reported billing problems, Andre Marin said. “It minimized the issue, misled its overseers, relied on public relations spin and put its customers last.” He called for an “overhaul [of] its corporate culture,” to one that pays more attention to the needs of customers and is transparent in its operations. Nowhere did he suggest those two goals could be achieved through a partial sale.

Premier Kathleen Wynn and Deputy Premier Deb Matthews insist Hydro One, in its new guise, will be subject to oversight by other means, such as through the Ontario Securities Commission, and that there will be a Hydro One ombudsman. How much authority the new officer would be able to exercise, to identify problems and effect change, is a matter for conjecture, without real hope that everyone’s concerns would be satisfied. Another foe of the proposal, a coalition calling itself Keep Hydro Public, is soliciting support for its position from municipalities. Many area councils have given it, sharing the group’s concern that electricity prices will inevitably increase while accountability to customers is likely to suffer under a new hybrid model. Critics aren’t convinced that introducing a private sector component will necessarily serve as a catalyst to the utility becoming more efficient. History is littered with large companies that fail as a result of their own incompetence so going private (in part) doesn’t automatically ensure Hydro One will be run more efficiently. And an entity motivated to generate profits would have yet another reason to support raising rates in addition to whatever other arguments have been used before to justify higher bills. There is a problem with how Hydro One is being managed, although the rebuke delivered by the ombudsman has shocked it into improving service. The Liberals are prepared to go one step further but their reasons for substantive change have more to do with divesting assets to raise money for projects the government wants done than it is to install a new corporate ethos sensitive to industry and ratepayers reeling from high electricity rates. What if, instead, the Crown corporation were to be turned into a co-operative? Is that even possible? As defined by the Co-operative Group, the UK’s largest mutual business, a “co-operative is a group of people acting together to meet the common needs and aspirations of its members, sharing ownership and making decisions democratically.” It’s not about “making big profits for shareholders, but creating value for customers,” it states. Logistics and legalities might render the suggestion impracticable, even nonsensical, but there’s no denying the guiding principle of a cooperative would find strong support among Hydro One’s 1.4 million customers.

Show at Capers features work of artist who paints crows onto panoramic landscapes By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Hand-painted crows soaring in a variety of landscapes are what make the work of Warkworth artist Christopher Thorpe alluring and fun. His paintings are on display in Capers Restaurant in Campbellford until August 11. A reception to open his show was held recently and Thorpe’s wife decided to bake some gingerbread crows covered with a black glaze for guests who dropped in for the launch. “It was fun, People got the chance to eat crow,� Thorpe said jokingly. He is known as a bit of a prankster which seems appropriate when it comes to his subject, crows. “The thing is crows themselves are pranksters. They’re very smart and up to all kinds of things,� said Thorpe with a grin. Crows are known to pick up objects and hide them. Some reports indicate this is related to their search for food and the desire to hide it for retrieval later. “A crow collects things but he will Presenting wide panoramas with multiple vanishing points Warkworth artist Christopher Thorpe, right, paints crows on his photographs which have been printed on archival canvas providing an return things too,� said Thorpe with a alluring series now on display at Capers Restaurant in Campbellford thanks to collaboration with chuckle. “There’s really a owner Ron Csenar, left.

trying to get a picture that really looks the way that people see things,â€? he added. “Like any artist I like experimenting. It’s always a search for me when painting and here I was trying to put my head into the head of a crow ‌ and I’m a bit of a prankster myself so it all fits,â€? he said with another grin. Thorpe does all of his own photography of the landscapes then has them printed on archival canvas and then paints the crow or crows onto the scene. He protects the finished product with an ultraviolet coating and adds a shadow frame. “You can wipe them clean but please don’t wipe the crows because they are acrylic,â€? he tells customers. And he has many fans of his work. Thorpe hopes other businesses and establishments in town will think about hanging the work of local artists. “It’s a collaboration that’s good for business and a good message to the public that they are supporting local artists.â€?

They’re really quite personal. I’m just trying to put a smile on people’s faces.� Thorpe is a mixed media landscape artist with a distinguished career in the broad field of design with an arts education from Nova Scotia College of Art & Design (NSCAD). His artwork in the past has been both two- and three-dimensional and is in collections across Canada. His paintings can be found in Eclectic Mix in Warkworth and at the Ganaraska Art and Framing in Port Hope. At one point in his life he designed performance sailboats “so the whole thing was to try and improve on the last one and improve on anybody else’s so you are constantly experimenting with something like that so you’re dealing with science and art.

Help Us…Raise the Barn! Peterborough County exists today largely due to our agricultural roots. Communities were formed over 150 years ago to serve the needs of the agricultural residents in the area. The Peterborough County Agricultural Heritage Building, to be built at Lang Pioneer Village Museum, will pay homage to the families, farms and advancements that have assisted in creating a culture of ambitious and dedicated agricultural leaders, respected by their peers throughout the community, the province and the world. This project is the creation and construction of a new facility at Lang Pioneer Village Museum: “The Peterborough County Agricultural Heritage Building.” The building will be

built in “circa 1910” barn style to honour our historical routes, celebrate one of the last great symbols of agriculture and act as a stepping stone for the Village to evolve into the 20th century. The Peterborough County Agricultural Heritage Building will provide a number of opportunities for individuals, families and corporations to become a partner at various levels. The support of the community is an integral part of seeing this project through to completion. For more information on ways you can support the new building, please contact Karen Jopling at raisethebarn@county. peterborough.on.ca.

News - Campbellford - The Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit is continuing its investigation into an unusual skin infection after preliminary laboratory results indicate the infections are being caused by Mycobacterium marinum (M marinum). The Health Unit has investigated five of six cases of the infection with people from the Campbellford area, and all seem to be associated with handling shrimp grown at a local shrimp farm. The Health Unit is working with the shrimp farmer and a local grocery store that sells the shrimp to provide information to customers to ensure they wear waterproof gloves when handling

the raw shrimp and wash their hands thoroughly with soap and water. The M marinum is a slow growing mycobacterium found in salt water and fresh water. Infections produce red, painful sores on hands and arms. It is most commonly found among aquarium cleaners, fishermen and seafood handlers, but it has also been associated with handling raw fish/seafood during food preparation. There is no known risk of M marinum infection from eating fish or seafood and it cannot be spread from person-to-person. “The shrimp farmer has been extremely co-operative during this investigation and is working

closely with the Health Unit to determine what, if any, steps can be taken to eliminate this naturally occurring bacterium from the shrimp and to provide public education materials safe practices when handling the raw shrimp,” stated Anne Marie Holt, director, communicable disease control, epidemiology and evaluation, for the Health Unit. Anyone who may have developed red, painful sores on their hands and arms after handling raw shrimp is asked to contact the Health Unit and their health care provider for assessment and treatment. The Health Unit is also working with neighbouring health units in this investigation.

Wall of Fame inductees include two dairy farmers from Trent Hills

News - Trent Hills - Eleven people, including three couples, will be added to the Quinte Agricultural Wall of Fame in September. Three of the inductees are from Northumberland County– Gene and Helen Brahaney, and Lew Dunk. Gene Brahaney, a dairy farmer for 35 years who now grows corn and soybeans as cash crops on the couple’s Hastings-area farm, served as president of Northumberland Junior Farmers, Northumberland Holstein Club and the Campbellford-Seymour Agricultural Society. He also was a member of the Junior Farmers’ Association of Ontario executive and a provincial director with the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, representing Northumberland County. Like her husband, Helen Brahaney, who worked 40 years as a nurse at hospitals in Campbellford and Peterborough, has toiled for the fair board for many years, serving various roles, including secretary of the agricul-

tural society and president of different divisions. She was also president of a local Women’s Institute, and both were involved with the Kinsmen and Kinette clubs. Gene Brahaney is a life member. “They have been very, very heavily involved in the Campbellford Fair and 4-H shows and the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto,� said Jim Dalrymple, longtime chair of the Wall of Fame committee that selects the inductees and organizes the ceremony. Gene Brahaney’s resume also includes being a Trent Hills councillor for 12 years, serving as an adjuster and director of Hamilton Township Mutual Insurance Company for 21 years, with two years as chair. He has been a member of the Campbellford Memorial Hospital board of directors, Trent Hills Police Services Board, and the executive of the Campbellford Rebels junior hockey team. Brahaney has received Distinguished Achievement award from the Holstein club, and an Agricultural Societies of Ontario

Agricultural Service Award. Dunk started out working for a local farmer at age 11 before purchasing a farm at 25. He served as president of the Northumberland Holstein Club and two terms as head of the Warkworth fair board and the Warkworth Community Service Club. What stands out are his “major contributions� to 4-H, spanning more than 20 years, Dalrymple said. “Lew was able to bring out the leadership potential and speaking skills in all his members.� In 1986, Dunk was named a Holstein Master Breeder by Holstein Canada–the organization’s most prestigious award, recognizing breeders who have the best ratio for breeding cows that have high production as well as high proficiency in reproduction, health and longevity. Both Dunk and Gene Brahaney also served as school board trustees. The other inductees, from Hastings, Prince Edward, and Lennox-Addington counties are: J. Donald Baxter, a prominent canning factory operator and

dairy farmer who once served as MPP; dairy farmer Ted Ray, founder of Maple Dale Cheese, an Eastern Breeders director and 4-H supporter; Allan and Phyllis Lott, dairy farmers and founding members of the Hastings Farm Show, who are active in many farm and community organizations; Wilma and Carman Huffman prominent dairy farmers who are active in 4-H, Quinte Exhibition, and St. Marks United Church, and John Ray, the first president of the Hastings County Agricultural Museum, owner of Stirling Machine Shop, and a New Holland machinery dealer. He’s a prominent member of many local organizations. The 11 inductees will push the number of people who have been honoured with a spot on the Wall of Fame to in excess of 60 people. All of them, this year’s group and those from the past, are “just A-one people who have made a contribution to the well-being of agriculture, the community, and neighbours,� Dalrymple said. “It’s amazing how many� of them said they got their start in

ing installed as part of the $1,343,232 project, the street will be six metres wide, 600 millimetres narrower than the old travelled portion of the road. It’s an issue Waldon says the township knew about before the project started and one that was discussed at the public meeting held to inform area residents about the project. Mayor Low raised the specific issue of parking in front of St. Paul School, something that’s been raised in the past. “We’ve got to do something about the parking there because it’s really congested,� he said. “If we have an event on that street, some sort of celebration, we have to find some way to control it. This is something council has to think about. How do we want to address parking on that street to address the new sidewalk?� Low said the municipality may hold a public meeting on the issue.

“The sooner we get the word out that we are thinking about parking [the better] to get feedback,� he added. Deputy-mayor Rodger Bonneau wondered if “alternate parking� on opposite sides of the street might work because of the narrowness. Appropriate signage will be needed to remind drivers of restrictions, he added. Waldon said he’s certainly going to put signage up reminding big vehicles that parking is restrictive. The Spring Street project, he added, is a good catalyst to “open up� the township’s parking bylaw for discussion. “There have been a few other issues around the township regarding parking.� On the project itself, Waldon says the new watermain is “up and running� between County Road 45 and Pine Street, Pine Street included, and passed pressure testing with “flying colours.� The temporary water bypass is in place during the second Please see “Parking� on page 17

Studio for actors and newcomers to theatre to open in September

By John Campbell

News - Colborne - If you’re an actor who would like to get better at your craft or someone who has never acted but is eager to learn how, Process Theatre is the place that could make both happen. The studio currently taking shape at 15 King Street East is the brainchild of Michael J. Gellman and Deborah Ann Smith, a husbandand-wife team who have worked in theatre for more than 40 years. A writer, teacher and actor who has written two full-length plays, Smith has performed in films and television, and worked at major theatres in Chicago and Toronto. She was also the founder and first artistic director of The St. Lawrence Shakespeare Festival in Prescott. Gellman’s background includes a lengthy affiliation with Second City, where he began as an actor in Chicago in both its touring company and resident company. He later served as artistic director of both Toronto Second City and the Toronto Training Centre, where he remains a senior faculty member, and was the resident director for Second City International from 1984 to 2000, directing more than 22 shows in both the United States and Canada. Since 1976 he has taught at universities, acting centres and festivals around the world and is currently teaching in New York and working as a freelance teacher, director and actor. During his 45 years in the busi-

ness Gellman has directed, taught and/or acted with Tina Fey, Steve Carrell, John Candy, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Chris Farley, Steven Colbert, George Wendt and many others. When the pair decided to “semiretireâ€? and move back to Canada, they chose to make their home a small cottage in Castleton which Smith had purchased as a retreat. The decision to launch a studio to teach others what they have learned came next. The 1,700-square-foot space they’re leasing is big enough to carry out their plans to “create theatreâ€? and “workshop new plays,â€? Smith said, with seating for up to 50 people. Smith envisions it becoming “a creative hub, an artistic home ‌ that doesn’t require federal funding,â€? but supports itself. Although Gellman said their decision to start Process Theatre in a small community is “absolutely terrifying,â€? the couple are committed to making their endeavour a success, “with a lot of hard work and [for] the right reasons, which is to pass the craft on,â€? Smith said. That’s what she was taught at The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts in England where she graduated from the postgraduate program. The school “goes right back to Shakespeare’s theatre, [and] I was told it was my duty when I graduated to create work for other people ‌ If we don’t create theatre then

the craft dies. For those already working as actors professionally (or even in amateur productions), the classes and workshops will help them “get the joy back in their performance,� Gellman said, and “rejuvenate their excitement.� While working in Chicago he started developing a technique that became known as long-form improvisation which challenged actors to create a character and sustain it for “an extended period of time onstage.� The work he continues to do on behalf of Second City is his “day job, [his] passionate work is to develop new theatre, develop new plays,� Gellman said. Although Process Theatre will not officially open until October 23, the three-hour classes will begin September 9 and run for six weeks or more. Gellman will teach classes on improvisation, where participants will be encouraged “to find freedom of expression and to tap into their inner actor.� There’s even a class for “people with life experience�–seniors–who have always wanted to learn improvisation. Gellman will also lead workshops on story telling, which involves turning a good idea into a good story and then employing techniques “to tell that story well.� Smith will teach the fundamentals of film and stage acting for teens 14 to 17 as well as for adults.

They also have in mind three-day storytelling festivals and writers workshops. To learn more about the couple’s studio, visit <www.processtheatre.ca>.

Deborah Ann Smith and her husband Michael J. Gellman are busy getting their Process Theatre studio ready for classes they will begin teaching September 9. The veteran actors have more than 40 years of experience in theatre. Gellman, will teach improvisation and storytelling while Smith will teach separate acting classes for teens and adults. Smith said the studio will be a home for people already in theatre as well as those who have never had the opportunity to act but wish to learn now, whatever their age. Photo: John Campbell

phase of the work between Pine and Oak Streets. Asphalt and curb has been removed from that section and Waldon says it’s timed perfectly because school is out. There has been a “minor alignment change� to move the watermain five feet away from the gas main, he said. The storm sewer work has been “very tolerable�

with “no extra geotechnical work needed to be done at this point� even with the wet excavation conditions. “Most of what I’ve been hearing are a lot of concerns about the street width,� he said. The road was narrowed by 600 millimetres so they could install a “proper standard sidewalk.� “I think once it’s paved it will be better to look at. We knew it was going to be tight.�

The two-inch gas service has been severed three times during the project something Waldon says should not happen. “It’s kind of careless when it’s a repetitive mistake like this. I don’t see a whole lot of excuse for this. If you’re careful it shouldn’t happen.� He has recommended that the fire department bill the contractor for the time crews had to spend at the scene.

Farmers’ market at Codrington officially opened

News - Codrington - Already a regular stop in many people’s Sunday schedule, the Farmers’ Market in Codrington was officially opened with a recent ribbon cutting. Vendors began selling their products the Victoria Day long weekend and have been back every Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. For customers it’s an opportunity to meet the people who grew the food, ask them questions or get advice, knowing that what they are purchasing is as fresh as possible. Adding to the market’s atmo-

The Codrington Farmers’ Market is a project of the Codrington Community Association spearheaded by local resident Liana Palmer. â€œThe community has proven that they want a Farmers’ Market by shopping here each week. And we are just thrilled by the quality products our vendors bring here to sell,â€? Palmer said in a news release. “Plus, the market just gets

Big acts bring big crowds to Great Canadian Empire Rockfest

By Stephen Petrick

Entertainment - Belleville - It was hot, it was cold, it was wet. It was fun, it was loud and it was Canadian. The ninth edition of Empire Rockfest is in the books and the “experiment” of branding this year’s outdoor festival as “The Great Canadian Empire Rockfest” Tom Cochrane belts out a tune at the Great Canadian Empire Rockfest in Downtown Belleville on Saturday, July 25. Thousands seemed to work, a promoter said. The combined attendance for the attended the show, despite a rainstorm.

three-day event was about 8,000 with more than 2,500 attending the parking lot-turned rock venue each night to hear roaring guitar riffs, loud vocals and banging drums, all from Canadian acts. The only hitch over the weekend was a rain storm on Saturday night that pushed Tom Cochrane’s stage time an hour back. Yet over the weekend there were seemingly no complaints from the fans, nor performers. “We’ve had singular nights that had a larger audience, but we’ve never had a triple bill that was so consistent with its numbers and so consistent with the audience reaction,” said Andy Forgie, the Empire Theatre’s promotions manager. “Call it that Canadian thing; there were no rock stars, there were no divas. Everything was so down home. Everyone was so wonderful.” Hedley was the headline act on Thursday and the band’s frontman Jacob Hoggard energized the audience, which was notably younger compared to the two other nights. Scott Helman and Ria Mae opened the show. On Friday, the seated area was a sell out for performances by Alan Doyle and Blue Rodeo. Doyle, the former frontman of Great Big Sea, got the audience buzzing before the legendary Canadian band took the stage to play hits that got the crowd sign-

ing along. On Saturday, up and comer Beth Moore started the show with a short set under a blue sky. Next Big Sugar took the stage to play their unmistakable style of music that blends hard, bluesy rock with reggae. By the time lead singer and guitarist Gordie Johnson closed the set with an electric version of O Canada, rain was pouring onto the stage. The storm delayed the start of a short set by former Glass Tiger singer Alan Frew, but he soldiered on even as the rain continued. By the time Tom Cochrane hit the stage it was 10:30 p.m. His long set, pushed the boundaries of the midnight noise curfew, but no concert goers seemed to mind. Forgie and Empire Theatre owner Mark Rashotte joined Cochrane on stage toward the end for arguably his most famous song, Life Is A Highway. The three know each other well, from being involved in Canadian bands in the 1970s. Cochrane in fact once sang vocals on a track recorded by Forgie and Rashotte’s band Photograph. “He’s so passionate about his songs,” Forgie said of Cochrane, his old friend who’s turned into one of Canada’s most famous songwriters. “He talks about them and he takes you through it. It’s really neat.”

Among the many classic vehicles on display during the Wings and Wheels Car Show were, from right, a red 1930 Ford Model A Tudor owned by John and Helen Skillen of Trenton, a blue 1939 Chevrolet Master DeLuxe belonging to Carol Osborne of Foxboro and a 1947 Studebaker truck owned by Kevin Parks of Napanee. They were parked next to the National Air Force Museum of Canada’s Canucks Unlimited C-47 Dakota.

News - Trenton - There were no trains, but there were plenty of planes and automobiles at the first-ever Wings and Wheels Car Show on Sunday, July 26. The event, held in the outdoor air park at the National Air Force Museum of Canada in Trenton, was a joint fundraiser for the NAFMC Foundation and the Quinte Humane Society. By all accounts, it was a big hit with spectators and exhibitors alike. “I’m very, very pleased at the wonderful turnout and the positive comments we’re getting,” said museum executive director Chris Colton. “From a museum perspective, this has been a wonderful day for us.” Colton said many people came for the cars and outdoor air park, and stayed to tour the museum’s many indoor exhibits as well. For many, it was their first visit to the museum. While the show happened to coincide with another car show in Centennial Park over the weekend, that wasn’t necessarily a negative thing, said NAFMC Foundation Board Chairman Rod Wartman. “We’re going to take a look at de-conflicting on the weekend, but we’ve had a lot of people come up from the other one,” Wartman said. Having the third week in July

set aside as “car show week” in Quinte West might actually be a good idea for the future, he suggested, since the unplanned coincidence this year drew a lot of spectators who were able to see two shows. “In some ways, having more than one [car] show on the same weekend was a help,” he said. “It’s been a great event, and we fully intend to have it next year as well and make it an annual event.” One of this year’s exhibitors, Brian Milroy of Belleville, brought his 1955 Dodge Canadian Army truck. “I’ve never taken it to a car show before,” said Milroy, who was the Commanding Officer of the Hastings Prince Edward Regiment from 1981 to 1984. He said this vehicle was one of the few that included a heater, and was intended to serve in Norway during the Cold War. “This was the only truck that could fit in the back of a C-119 Boxcar,” he said, and still have room for its trailer, soldiers and kit.

The truck was parked next to a CF-104 Starfighter which served in Germany during the same era as part of Canada’s commitment to NATO. Many of the vehicles in the show were parked next to aircraft from the same era, such as the 1930 Ford Model A Tudor and 1939 Chevrolet Master DeLuxe that were beside the museum’s Canucks Unlimited C-47 Dakota. Visitors were able to go inside the Dakota and experience what it was like to be inside this durable cargo plane on a hot day. “It was built in 1939 in the United States and it was handed over to the British, who flew it with Canadian squadrons in Burma,” said museum volunteer Harry Nash. “Just think of the Canadians loading this thing up in 40-degree temperatures.” Many of the cars on display brought back memories for visitors. Jeff Plane of Belleville admired a 1954 Buick Century owned by Ron Lavigne of Yarker, Ontario. “My first car was a 1975 Buick Century,” Plane recalled.

Belleville a great place for boating Poker Run

“The bay is a beautiful piece of water,” he said. “It’s the diversity; there’s so many places you can go.” Steacy, of Carleton Place, was one of a small number of powerboaters who came to the region on Saturday, July 25, for the Bay of Quinte Poker Run. The event, run by Powerboating Canada, has boaters travel to different sites along the bay to pick up playing cards. The boater with the best poker hand after collecting five cards wins the event. This way, the event is a game of chance, rather than a timed race. But it’s also a spectacle for boat lovers. The big boats that compete are fine examples of power and craftsmanship. Some are more than 30 feet long and they make quite a roar as they rip through the water. Their costs range in the high six-digit area to upwards of $1 million, sources say. Poker runs are also exciting events for those with an interest in economic development. There’s always hope that owners of expensive boats will also have a few dollars to spend at local hotels, restaurants and stores as they make pit stops in the region. Steacy said he believes the city of Belleville understands that, as he always feels welcome when he’s here. This marked his fourth time competing in the Bay of Quinte Poker Run, an event that starts and ends at Meyers Pier in downtown Belleville, but has boater stops in Deseronto, Picton and A young spectator watches owners of a power- Quinte West during the day. “We love boat get ready for the Bay of Quinte Poker Run. coming here,” he said, with a smile, Large powerboats took off from Meyers Pier in while eating breakfast at the newly Downtown Belleville on Saturday morning. renovated Pier Patio.

News - Belleville - Jason Steacy has no reservations about bringing his powerboat to Belleville, which is more than he can say about some other nearby cities. In Montreal, they price gouge you, he says, making boaters pay three-digit numbers to dock for a night. And in Gananoque he feels the town isn’t doing enough to promote its waterways, as docking, he says, is difficult and the downtown, he senses, is in decline. But in Belleville, he said, docking is affordable, the atmosphere is friendly and the scenery along the Bay of Quinte is amazing.

they’re just for powerboat owners. The event is officially marketed as a “Poker Run and Rendezvous.” The “rendezvous” implies that it’s open for smaller boats, too. This way entire families can come out and enjoy the competition. Steacy said he competed in one recent event, where the owner of a jetski won. Ultimately, Poker Run and Rendezvous events are about getting tonnes of people out to enjoy the water. And it offers powerboaters a chance to show their pride and joy to spectators. “It’s to get together with friends,” Steacy said. “And it’s a blast seeing spectators come out to look at your boat. It’s kind of Jason Steacy, a competitor in the Bay of Quinte Poker Run event last weekend, looks at a map of the Bay of Quinte posted at the Pier Patio at Meyers Pier in Belleville. like being a mini-rock star.”

OPG Cougars take silver at Ontario finals

By Bill Freeman

Sports - Cobourg - The Campbellford OPG Midget Cougars walked away with the silver medal at the OASA provincial championships in Cobourg this past weekend and further ratcheted up their rivalry with the Hamburg Heat who took gold. Campbellford and New Hamburg are both heading to the Canadian U-18 championships in Fredericton so the rivalry travels east with the Cougars hoping to settle some unfinished business against the talented Heat. Campbellford went 1 - 2 against New Hamburg at Legion Park losing 5 - 1 then edging them 1 - 0 before losing in the final game 13 - 0 after leaving six men on base. Earlier the Cougars knocked off Tavistock 7 - 0 and beat Grand Valley twice, 7 - 6 and 13 - 3. At the Ontario elimination tourney in Tavistock the Heat and Cougars delivered outstanding performances with the team’s splitting games. During both tournaments Campbellford advanced to the final round needing two wins over New Hamburg to win gold but could only come up with one win. In their 1 - 0 thriller, Stewart Battman led off the sixth inning with a double setting the plate for Cam Heffernan who doubled to cash in Battman. In the third inning, Campbellford missed a glorious chance to score some runs with Connor Petherick doubling to open things fol-

lowed by two walks to load the bases. A long flyball by Battman was hauled in squelching a grand slam shot. Pitcher Ben Broek tripled in the fourth but was left at third. Broek fanned ten and yielded two hits and four walks. The 1 - 0 win was the Cougars’ third game in a row starting Sunday morning. Campbellford mercied Tavistock 7 - 0 to start the tourney with 12 runners going to the plate in a seven-run second inning that started with a Battman walk, followed by a double from Heffernan and singles by Bailey Fife, Zac Klein and Broek. Broek pitched a two hitter with six strikeouts. Campbellford out-duelled explosive Grand Valley 7 - 6 with Ty Tebo leading the way with a home run and single; Battman slapped out two doubles and Petherick added two singles. Fife had a double with singles to Heffernan, Broek and Colin Doyle. Battman sent down 11 batters and gave up five hits. In the undefeated game New Hamburg tagged Broek for nine hits in their 5 - 1 win. Battman had a double and single while Nate Broek doubled. Broek added a single and fanned nine batters. The defeat put the Cougars on the loss side of the tourney where they polished off Grand Valley 13 - 3 with Broek pitching a seven hitter behind nine strikeouts.

Austin Fry had a home run, double and single with Heffernan adding two doubles and a single, Tebo had two doubles and a single while Ben Broek had three singles; Battman, Nate Broek, Petherick and Jake McCaw had two singles each. Campbellford then faced New Hamburg in the final needing two wins for the title.

Brilliant wines from the Canadian Shield

By Brett Mann

R0013391091

News - Sulphide - A visitor completing a visit to the Potter Settlement Wines vineyard might have difficulty deciding which is the more remarkable: the vineyard itself, perched on the edge of the Canadian Shield, the wines produced there, or the founder/vintner Sandor Johnson. Johnson, a noted television actor and model, explains that because of the scepticism bordering on ridicule that met his plans to create a winery in Hastings County on the Canadian Shield, he could not afford to make a bad wine. A tasting of several reds and a late harvest white on a recent Saturday morning confirms he succeeded in his quest for quality. Potter Settlement wines have received universal praise including that of U.S. President Barak Obama who sampled some at a fundraising dinner. The winery sits on thick beds of mineral-rich glacial till. In the reshaping of the terrain for the vineyard over 50,000 truckloads of sand were removed and used for building local roads. From a granite ridge on the south side one looks down on the neatly laid out vines in the valley below bordered on the north by forest-covered hills. Wildlife abounds, including today a grey heron and otters playing in two large “ponds” (one of which is 100 feet deep) with elk, bear, deer and moose as frequent visitors. At the northeast corner sits the winery itself, a large building holding stainless steel fermentation vats worth tens of thousands of dollars each and a large wine cave dug into the solid rock guarded by thick “bombproof” doors made of eastern hemlock. The winery is the result of 15 years of effort and millions of dollars invested. The key to success was finding grape varietals which would thrive in the northern climate and produce top-quality wines, and in his lengthy and meticulous search, Johnson was greatly aided by the

Sandor Johnson, founder/owner of Potter Settlement Wines offers a tasting in the gazebo-like tasting room overlooking the vineyards. Mr. Johnson’s wines have won wide acclaim, including the praise of American President Barak Obama.

expertise of his brother Robin who holds a graduate degree in wine-making and is also a chef. “That’s half of the battle,” observes Johnson listing the grape varieties he grows for reds: “Marquette, Frontenac Rouge, Cabernet franc and pinot noir.

For my whites I have a Vidal and a Frontenac Gris–that’s a late harvest wine. You can’t call it an ice-wine because of LCBO rules, even though it is. “Whites do amazing in Canada, Niagara, the county, because of our naturally acidic soil. The reds are a

challenge because we don’t have the sun like in California and Italy, but they have the opposite problem … the trick in making a red in Canada is you have to get the acid out, from the high acid soils. You have to do what they call a malolactic fermentation or something

called a carbonic maceration.” Another method uses yeast and Johnson reports that as far as he knows, his is the only winery in Canada using “a foreign yeast that eats eighty per cent of the acid … it’s magical.” Please see “Canadian” on page B3

Where’s the beef? It’s plentiful in Hastings County the summer for beef farmers to kick back and celebrate, given how hard they work. “We’re working from daylight to dusk this time of year and that’s all we do,” said Darrell Russett, the president of the Beef Farmers of Hastings County. “We farm all the time because it’s what we want to do … On most days we’re starting at 6 a.m. It’s not dusk until 9:30, so we don’t quit until 9:30. If you think you’re caught up, you’re not looking hard enough.” Despite the inherent hard work that comes with farming, the beef industry appears to be healthy in Hastings County, Russett said. The Beef Farmers of Hastings County has nearly 50 members in the association. Those members work to ensure their Twin 13-year-old brothers Hunter and Hayden Allen, from Marlbank, help themselves to some roast industry is promoted and in good place been being served at the Beef Farmers of Hastings County Twilight Potluck Supper at Vos Vegas Farms on Thursday, July 23.

The Beef Farmers also work closely with the 4-H Club, an organization that provides agriculturalrelated program for youth. While the annual Twilight Supper program is a casual event, in which people line up dozens at a time to try food brought by guests, there is some business to the meeting, Russet said. Motions are made at the end to discuss the group’s expenses and other points of order. “We get together and talk about the price of cattle and hay; it’s a community thing,” he said. “The pot luck helps bring people in.” Russett said that now’s a challenging time to work as a beef farmer. The Canadian dollar is at one of its lowest

marks, compared to the American dollar, in several years, which is not good, considering that a lot of equipment needed for beef farming comes from the United States. This puts Canadian farmers at a disadvantage to American farmers, who can also usually purchase cattle cheaper. But Russett encourages Canadians to purchase Canadian-made meat regardless of the price. Those who do are supporting home-grown farm operations and contributing to a better economy. And he argues, they’re also making a choice that’s healthier for their families. “Locally we know how our beef is raised,” Russett said, explaining that Canadian beef farmers are subject to rigorous standards to ensure the safety of the meat. “But when it’s imported, you don’t know what the medical protocol is [from the country from which it’s imported].”

burgeoning Peterborough County Agricultural Wall of Fame at Lang Pioneer Village Museum. Norwood Agricultural Society icon and president and former Member of Parliament G.A. Brethen and Ron Warner, who established the award-

winning Ronbeth herd, will be part of a distinguished Class of 2015 that includes nineteenth century pioneer farmer David Fife of Red Fife wheat fame, James A. Gifford, the first president of the Peterborough County Federation of Agriculture and farming innovator and Milking Shorthorn breeder Joseph Sullivan. The Wall of Fame will become part of the new $1-million Agricultural Heritage Building at Lang, a barn-styled facility modelled on the barns that dotted the county’s landscape around 1910. The building will be completed in time for the museum’s 50th anniversary celebrations in 2017. The Agricultural Wall of Fame recognizes people who’ve made an outstanding contribution to the area’s agricultural industry. The inaugural list of inductees spans the generations stretching from the county’s earliest farming days in the 1840s to the present. The ceremony will take place August 30 at Lang.

1968) was the president of the Norwood Agricultural Society from 1943-1958 and his Hillcrest dairy herd produced the first cow in Canada to produce 29,000 pounds of milk in one year. Brethen was the first vice president of the United Farmers of Ontario in 1914 and was active in many local farm organizations in addition to serving as a Member of Parliament from 1921 to 1925. He was an active supporter of 4-H, served his church for many years and contributed to many other boards and community activities. In 1985 he was inducted into the Ontario Agricultural Hall of Fame. Brethen was nominated by John and Suzanne McMillan. Ron Warner was born in

1926 and developed one of the country’s finest herds of Holsteins. Along with his service to the community, Warner was also the president of the Norwood Agricultural Society from 1984-1985. The Ronbeth herd has been recognized worldwide with breeding stock and embryos sold in more than 20 countries. Ronbeth has received several All-Canadian and AllAmerican nominations and has been a Premier Breeder and Premier Exhibitor at the county level as well as receiving the prestigious Master Breeder Shield from Holstein Canada. Warner has been a community leader in minor hockey, in his church including the choir, Sunday School Superintendent, Clerk of Session and Board of

Directors. He was nominated by John and Colleen Terpstra. Plans for the new building include a display barn where artefacts will be housed along with a restoration workshop where staff and volunteers will demonstrate how machinery, like steam engines, thrashers and tractors ran. The heritage barn will also include the Peter Hamilton agricultural collection; agricultural implements and equipment for display and operation demonstrations; a conservation lab with viewing window; multipurpose space with full technical capabilities for workshops, theatre, live music and an education centre, a commercial kitchen with multi-purpose use and an outdoor courtyard. There will also be sponsor recognition throughout the facility.

originally settled by his mother’s family in 1836. He is clearly a man of many parts who played a recurring role in the TV show All My Children for two years and holds an Honours B.A. in English and a Master’s Degree in journalism and communication. “I worked a bit for the Ottawa Citizen and

CNN Tokyo, on the finance desk, but I made the most money in the fashion business.” Johnson attended high school in Madoc and has lifelong ties to Tweed. “I’m grateful to the local people who were patient and gave me a quiet thumbs-up. I want to do Tweed proud.”

Wormwood

The Good Earth:

Dan Clost Lifestyles - Artemisia is a perennial that is global in genus and regional in species. Most Gentle Readers will be familiar with two forms: the soft feathery Artemisia schmidtiana “Silver Mound” and the broader leafed species mentioned below. Depending on which genus and which species, artemisia is also known as tarragon, mugwort, green ginger, dusty miller (often confused with the annual of the same name) absinthe and sage brush. This chappie gets around. This is a plant with many uses but it can spread so one should be a titch circumspect when including it in the garden plan. A few years ago I planted some Valerie Finnis artemisia. It had the descriptor of being less aggressive than other rhizomatous varieties in the Ludoviciana species so I thought I was safe. Well, GR, turns out that while “less aggressive than …” might be accurate it is definitely a relative reckoning. This lovely lassie spread rampant through our honeysuck-

le garden completely overwhelming its companions. I finally dug up the entire bed, fortunately a rather small one, to remove all the roots. Even so, it was still a few years before volunteer Vals ceased poking their tips above the ground. By the way, Valerie Finnis is a very important person in horticulture in terms of not only the advancement of gardening and photography but perhaps mostly so in firmly establishing a female presence in the discipline. No wonder she had such a tenacious and lovely cultivar named in her honour. Research also shows “wormwood” to have biblical roots (with many, many interpretations) as well as homeopathic uses, e.g. Iraqi folk medicine employed it as a management tool for diabetes mellitus; the English used it in bedding to deter fleas and other little bitey things, it is used in Vermouth and it is the source of the liqueur absinthe. (Caveat: Van Gogh favoured the latter and some believe it assisted in his unique

perceptions.) A second caveat comes from The Allergy-Fighting Garden by Tom Ogren, in which artemisia ranks in the upper category of allergenic reactions because of its pollen. So, since they are relatively insignificant, just nick off the flower scapes as they form to avoid that issue. Yesterday, I returned Val’s cousin, Silver Brocade, (Artemisia stellariana “Silver Brocade” which can also be referenced by its original name “Broughton Silver”) to the same little garden. There is something about the soft grey colouring of the petals that attracts me. Silver Brocade will max out between six and 12 inches but can be kept lower if desired. You can do the hedge clipper thing after flowering and return the plant to its lower limits. My intent here is that this cultivar will eventually completely fill in this bed, as did Val; but under my management. (I originally used the word “control” as opposed to management when I first wrote that sentence

but I have learned that control is merely an illusion.) I want to try an experiment where this hardy perennial will provide an effective groundcover (cool soil, moisture retention, weed inhibitor) and a contrasting backdrop to plants of darker hue. I’m thinking of Mondo grass, violas, and coral bells for a start. It will take a few years for this to happen but it should be fun. In the meantime I’ll pop in annuals such as black-leafed varieties of potato vine and coleus. Closing Notes: Our neighbourhood is changing and we are saying goodbye to three families who have become good friends over the years, all with gardening connections. One is the Bishops, with their famed magnolia tree. Darryl did his best one hot Friday evening to get me over to look at this tree while eldest daughter and future son-in-law were circling the block with a Father’s Day present (barbeque) in the back of a truck waiting for me to be distracted. The

second is the LeBlancs, who were our back yard neighbours since day one. Jack, in hort circles, is regarded as one of the best “from seed” propagators in our region and kept me supplied with his seedlings for almost three decades. Liz provided tremendous community support in her volunteer work with VON. The third is the Simpsons who, unknowingly, were my test subjects when I was trialling Proven Winner plants. PW would send two of each new introduction and I would slide one over to Susan (not Paul) to grow. It didn’t work out so well because her good English gardening genes meant everything I gave grew to its potential. Our children grew up together; our families grew together. We are look forward to meeting new neighbours but we regret saying farewell to people who are important to us and who were important to our community. May the road rise up to meet you, friends.

PanAm Games a “big deal”

Lifestyles - Much of the talk this particular summer has been about the Toronto area’s hosting of the PanAm Games from July 10 to 26 and the Parapan Games from August 7 to 15. Well, by the time that you read this, the 2015 PanAm Games will be history and the Parapan Games will be just about to begin. It has been a “big

deal” to host this particular spectacle, for more than 7,600 athletes from the Americas and the Caribbean have or will have competed in over 30 different venues throughout southern Ontario, making this multi-sport international event one of the largest held anywhere at any time. My wife and I decided to attend this event, of course,

after listening to a PanAm and Parapan Am promotional talk several months ago, and we immediately decided to try to get tickets to the gold medal baseball game. After all, it would take place in Ajax, near our one son’s home, so it made perfect sense to us. Besides, Ajax meant for an easier drive, on this side of Toronto, and we’re both Please see “What” on page B5

Games have been held here in Ontario, and I’m certainly glad that I was there. For more information <www.toronto2015.org>.

baseball fans to boot. Well, on the actual day of the event, we discovered that the drive to Ajax was certainly busier than usual, so the traffic was somewhat of a problem. However, we arrived at our son’s home in plenty of time for some chat and food before the evening game, and then we were all off to the ball park. We wanted to arrive early, for although we had tickets, the seating was on a first-come, first-served basis, and this particular final game was a sold-out event. With Canada and the U.S. both in the final, there was a lot of interest, and the crowd soon swelled. If you followed the PanAm Games, then you already know that Canada won this game in an extra inning, in the bottom of the tenth, after a very intense, dramatic, exciting, nail-biting championship game. However, to actually be there to witness the unfolding of this particular piece of sporting history was, indeed, both entertaining and special. When the ninth inning ended in a 4 - 4 tie, the “international tie breaker” rules came into play, and this meant that the tenth inning began with runners on first and second base and the manager’s batter of choice at the plate. That first batter would then attempt to bunt the runners over into scoring position, which the Americans did perfectly. Then the next batter hit away, successfully, driving in two runs, and giving the U.S. team a 6 - 4 lead before the Canadians ended the onslaught. When the Canadians tried to do the same bunting strategy in the bottom of the tenth, our batter fouled out, so it didn’t look good for us at all. However, the next batter did get a single, and one run scored, and we again had runners on first and second, with one out. The American pitcher then decided to try to pick off the Canadian player who was leading off of first base, and the throw went wild, allowing a Canadian ball player to score all the way from second base, tying the game again. Then the American fielder who retrieved that errant ball decided to pick off the Canadian runner who was trying to advance all the way from first to third on that same play. The throw was again off target, a second error on the same play, and our player then hustled in from third base and slid home with the winning run. It was pandemonium and shock, for this was certainly a sudden and unexpected turn of events. The Canadian team had suddenly gone from a position where they seemed to be barely hanging on by their fingertips to suddenly, miraculously being victorious. This was, of course, immediately followed by a massive heap of Canadian players celebrating at home plate, amid the loud, joyful cheers of the largely partisan Canadian crowd. I talked about this particular ballgame in some detail, for it was my special memory of these PanAm Games. Others would, of course, fondly remember other special moments from the PanAm Games, or even look forward with eager anticipation to specific events about to take place in the

Also new this year is the Xtreme Cowboy Competition in the show ring, all day Sunday. The Xtreme Cowboy competition is an event that challenges both horse and rider to manoeuvre through a series of trail and farm-based obstacles demonstrating both horsemanship and speed. And last but not least is the Grass Hogs Lawn Tractor Races. This will be their first time at the Campbellford Fair,

however, folks may have seen them at the Norwood Fair in the past. The races will take place Sunday starting at 1 p.m. Preston Simmons is a member of the local Grass Hogs club which has members from Ottawa to Brooklin. “My uncle started racing years ago in western Ontario. He got my dad [Greg] interested and he built one about two years ago and still races. We follow the fairs a lot and race in Kingston, Parham and at Norwood,” he said. His children, Sarah Grace, age nine and Meghan, age 14, enjoy the sport too. His girlfriend’s son Curtis Graham, Preston Simmons of Trent Hills, centre driver, competed in the open class of the Grass Hogs Lawn Tractor race at the Norwood Fair and he is helpage 12, started racing last year. “My two girls absolutely love it and ing bring the event to the Campbellford Fair, something new for fairgoers race just as hard as the boys do,” said here.

Learn to Hike Safe with Quinte Conservation at the Frink Centre Events - Belleville - Quinte Conservation education staff will be hosting a “Hike Safe” program for children and families at the HR Frink Outdoor Education Centre and Conservation Area on Thursday, August 6, from 5 to 7 p.m. While on the hike, staff will help participants learn hiking safety tips and how to enjoy the natural world around them safely. After the one-hour hike there will be a campfire. The event is free of charge.
 “This should be a great event for families and people of all ages,” says Maya Navrot, Conservation Education Co-ordinator. “The one-hour interactive hike and learn program is designed to teach children how to stay safe in the woods and what to do if they are lost. It will be a good refresher for parents and adults, too. We will round out the evening with a campfire where people can talk about their hiking and outdoor experiences.” Participants are encouraged to wear long pants, long-sleeved shirts and close-toed shoes to protect against ticks and mosquitos. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

music for audiences of all ages. “We’re excited everything’s moving ahead,” Boileau said. Helping to make it possible for festival organizers to book a greater variety of acts is $50,000 in funding over two years from the Canada Arts Presentation Fund, which Northumberland-Quinte West MP Rick Norlock announced last week at the Henkel Family Lavender Farm near Colborne where the festival is held. “It would be difficult to survive without it, definitely,” Boileau said. “Ticket sales cover a large portion of our budget,” but with the extra funding, “we’re able to bring in musicians who have slightly bigger names,” and provide “a fair wage [which] is difficult for them sometimes to get.” Three of the acts have performed at Shelter Valley before. Canadian roots music legend Ken Whitely, whose achievements include a Canadian Folk Music Award and Lifetime Achievement recognition from Folk Music Ontario, has been nominated for seven JUNO awards and 14 Maple Blues Awards. His musical career has encompassed jug band, folk, swing, blues, gospel and children’s music. Darlene Darlyena performed the first two years the festival was held. Digging Roots, the husband-and-wife songwriting team of Raven Kanatakta and ShoShona Kish, who will be making a second appearance, won a 2010 JUNO award for their album, We Are. Workshops at the festival include teaching people square dancing and how to “play their instruments well together,” Boileau said. “This year we’re trying to

Entertainment - Colborne - The lineup for the 12th annual Shelter Valley Folk Festival is all set with 16 acts set to perform on the Labour Day weekend but several months ago its future was in doubt. “It was a rough winter for our community, at one point it looked like the festival wasn’t going to happen,” said Leslie Marie Boileau, the festival’s artistic director. “We’ve had some changeover [and] lost momentum but we’re hoping to really amp that back up this year.” Boileau attributed the “huge turnover … in everything” to “natural growing pains within the organization … [which] every organization goes through” at some point. “We were eleven years in so it was bound to happen,” she said. “A lot of people are very passionate about our festival and passions sometimes rise.” Now that everything has been sorted out, the seven-member board of directors and the seven-member operating committee are focused on hosting another outdoor festival that gives ticket holders access to “amazing events and activities that are representative of Canadian culture,” Boileau said. At the centre of it all are established and emerging Canadian and international artists who perform folk, roots and world

Making memories at O’Hara Mill Homestead By Diane Sherman

Events - Madoc Township - Not only do visitors have the chance to remember how their ancestors first lived in North America, but they have the opportunity to create memories for their own future. For special events, like Heritage Day, July 26, and the Corn Boil, coming up August 19, O’Hara Mill Homestead volunteers go all out bringing in demonstrators of pioneer skills, machine operators, artisans and livestock handlers. Taking a buckboard ride over

the back trail behind a team of Belgian horses is sure to result in stories told for a long time around the kitchen table. Perhaps learning to make corn husk dolls or candles from scratch will be the impetus for a return to a simpler lifestyle. Throughout the day, one could catch pieces of stories on “how my father did it” or “I’m building a log house … ” and sometimes, a simple “I want to try that.” The 85-acre conservation ground just northwest of Madoc

was a vibrant logging mill in earlier days. The mill and dam have been restored with a new stone dam and covered bridge. Five original buildings are refurbished with six new structures complementing the authenticity of the era. With another portion of the original land recently purchased from the neighbouring resident, Quinte Conservation and O’Hara Mill volunteers hope to expand activities to include horse field activities, like plowing, planting and fencing.

In spite of the hot weather Sunday, Lorena and Ian Sinclair kept the home fires burning in the hearth of the replica log cabin, serving up “shanty loaves” cooked in cast iron pots. But that was only a tasty dessert with samplings for visitors; in the hearth cooked a pot of beans, a chicken and all the trimmings. The Sinclairs repeatedly explained the contents to those who passed through. Continued on page B11

O’Hara Mill Homestead memories Continued from page B10

The newer house saw a steady stream of folks viewing how the O’Haras lived in the early 1900s. The home, now a museum, is found with contents in place, food on the wood stove and a spinning wheel in the living room, with settees around the old piano. It’s a true step back in time. Maintaining the homestead is done by volunteers who raise funds to

carry on with their goals. On special event days a $5 entry fee is charged and the food booth sells goods. Marketing volunteer Fred Bendell said they wanted to thank Madoc Home Hardware, Foodland, One Stop Butcher Shop and the Hidden Goldmine Bakery for ongoing contributions for these days. This year five quilts and other goodies were raffled off. The tally on the event has not yet been done, though Bendell thinks it was “a good day for all with Pioneer women were not expected to do hard labour dressed like Nancy Moorcroft, but lots of memories made ….” as Deirdre Reitav demonstrated at O’Hara Mill July 26, women could step up adequately when the job fell to them.

Vivian & Peter Smallwood

If I were a poet or a soloist I might express my thanks and appreciation for all the parties and best wishes to celebrate my 100th birthday, but I’m not. So I’ll just thank you who came from far and near with a great big THANK YOU in this way. I also would like to express my appreciation to Van Horne Manor as well as my cousins who organized it all. It was a wonderful time which will leave me with many happy memories. Thanks again and again. God Bless. Lilyan (McLaughlin) Flinn

Aged 61 died peacefully and at rest July 21, 2015 at Emmanuel House in Hamilton, Ontario. He is survived by his Mother Ethel, Sister Debra, Brother Pastor Dan, Extended Family Ellie and Macy, Uncles Boyd (Marie), John, Charlie (Rose), Aunt Bev (Ron), Daughter Tonya and her family. In respect of Bob’s wishes there will be no service; however, those who would like to honour his memory may do so by making a contribution to Emmanual House. A special thank you goes out to Grace for her support and friendship over the last few months. We would also like to express our gratitude to the sixth floor staff of St. Joseph’s Hospital, and especially everyone at Emmanuel House. Their genuine compassion, and the care they provided, made it possible for Bob to be comfortable in a loving environment. Your path in life was long and hard, Seldom paved or straight, And now you’ve walked the final yard, And entered heaven’s gate. For those of us you’ve left behind, It’s hard to let you go. But our souls will forever be entwined, Because we loved you so.
