EMC Events Campbellford - The 18th annual Campbellford BIA Waterfront Festival enjoyed fine weather for a day of ice cream eating, belly flopping, canoe, tube and cardboard boat racing, games of all kinds, and volleyball playing, topped off by a fireworks at night. “This year was successful because I heard it in the laughter and giggles of the participants,� said BIA member Rose-Marie Kerr,

whose husband Tom, president of the BIA, was also chair of the festival committee. “I saw it in the glow and wonder on the faces of the kids and parents throughout the day and I heard it in the ahhs! and wows! as they looked skyward to the dazzle of the fireworks that night.�

Ball diamond will be in place by spring

By John Campbell

EMC News - Campbellford - The tenders will be opened August 14 for construction of a new ball diamond in Campbellford.

It’s taken two years to get to this point but there are more details to iron out before work can begin on the County Road 38 site, north of Brian Runions Memorial Ball Diamond. “We’re getting close,� said Trent Hills CAO Mike Rutter. “We haven’t dotted the i’s and crossed the t’s [on an

Rutter said. “So, hopefully, this will allow them, once this is constructed ‌ to get those largerscale tournaments.â€?

The CAO said “it wasn’t the acquisition of the property that took so long� but trying to reach agreements with the

The existing ball diamond built by the Campbellford Kinsmen will remain in use until the land is needed for the new recreation and wellness centre thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been proposed.

Trent Hills has set aside money over two years for a new ball diamond, which should be ready for use by the spring of 2014. It will no longer need to use the ball diamond at Hillcrest Public School.

The municipality began making plans

“We’ve been two years pretty much trying to define what area we could use … [to come up

with a design] that is satisfactory to Lower Trent Conservation,” he said.

The municipality’s call for tenders includes parking but not a canteen.

“That will all be down

Rutter said there is enough room on the new site to build a second full-sized diamond

Gary Torrance, who has represented the Campbellford Minor Softball Association in its dealings with the municipality to secure another ball diamond,

said he was “amazed in a way” that it now will get done, “because it’s been so long since they said, yes, it’s a good idea … I’m glad to see it’s finally [happening].”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The challenges are enormous, the rewards amazing neglected, they have been abused both emotionally and physically, they have been made to feel that they are worthless, unwanted, and unloved. Often when placed into care they make life as difďŹ cult as they possibly can. The familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience has been that most of these kids eventually can become fully functioning members of the family.

MP opposes legalizing marijuana or legalization if presented with studies supporting this. His background in law enforcement should also serve to show that his governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approach is wrong-headed and there are many in law enforcement now who would agree.

While it is valiant to want to create a drug-free society and to do everything possible to help people who abuse drugs (that means alcohol too), and to educate our young people with the truth, burying our

heads in the sand and thinking that we can end this problem through prohibition is not really â&#x20AC;&#x153;thinking hardâ&#x20AC;? on the issue. A recent poll says that nearly 70 per cent of Canadians support either decriminalizing or legalizing marijuana. A party that wants to get re-elected in 2015 would be wise not to say that this opinion is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;knee-jerkâ&#x20AC;? reaction.

Dear Editor, Rick Norlockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response to the Liberal party policy of legalizing marijuana serves to demonstrate the approach to policy the Conservative party takes on many contentious issues. Policy is determined in a top-down manner with any ideas that might be controversial being ignored or censured by the party brass starting with the prime minister. Then they set about attacking the spokesperson behind the opposing idea using emotional terms such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;simplisticâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;naive,â&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;lacking in judgment.â&#x20AC;? Or they will present some inaccurate facts not based on evidence (e.g. Mr. Norlock says that â&#x20AC;&#x153;we have a huge problem with impaired drivingâ&#x20AC;? whereas Statistics Canada reports, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The rate of impaired driving causing death dropped 29 per cent in 2011, reaching its lowest point in over 25 years.â&#x20AC;?) or even suggest that there is no evidence. (What about the LeDaine Commission report?)

This approach is highly cynical and frustrating to people who believe government should be listening to new ideas and at least considering them through informed debate at their party conventions and eventually in the House of Commons.

The Liberal policy which appears to be well-researched and well-thought out is an example of how progressive and realistic they are in attempting to deal with the failed â&#x20AC;&#x153;war on drugsâ&#x20AC;? and a continuation of outdated thinking on the part of the Conservative party.

This Conservative government gained power by appearing to want to improve democracy, end corruption, be ďŹ scally responsible, and listen to Canadians of all backgrounds. Once in power, they usurped the democracy at all levels and have emerged as the complete antithesisâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a party with top-down rule, where members are forced to swallow their pride, toe the line, and spout the rhetoric of the party leader. Continuing this â&#x20AC;&#x153;war on drugsâ&#x20AC;? with the over $1.5 billion spent on law enforcement, court costs, and the penal system â&#x20AC;&#x153;makes no senseâ&#x20AC;? either and is not ďŹ scally responsible.

Looking at Mr. Norlockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comments, I see some hope that he might actually be softening his stand on the marijuana issue when he says he would be prepared to really seriously consider decriminalization

rules!

The experience of watching my son and daughter with children in their care is that there are a lot of appointments with various health professionals, there are the obligatory visits with birth parents and grandparents, and the CAS social workers, but always my daughter-in-law made it possible to arrange for the kids to go to camp, to the cottage, to play hockey, to have birthday parties, to come visit their â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nana and Grandpaâ&#x20AC;? for sleepovers.

(We would stuff them in the house somehow, under the dining room table, in the spare room). They rowed on the pond, paddled in the stream, explored the woods in summer and slid down snowy hills on tin trays in the winter. In short experiencing the very same lifestyle as my grandsons.

Has the experience of growing

up with foster kids affected my three grandsons negatively?

Possibly. The life lessons learned from their shared experience has impacted each of them differently. I believe that their daily involvement, interaction, playtime, and helping to care for those babies and kids placed in their home over the years has brought them the wisdom to appreciate how lucky they are, an empathy for those less fortunate and a clear understanding that despite the colour of skin, of creed, or ethnicity, we all have the right to a safe home, free from fear and bigotry.

My grandsons, now age 18 to 23, have witnessed the huge difference their parents have made in the lives of these children and young adults. They now share a deep bond with their adult â&#x20AC;&#x153;sistersâ&#x20AC;? who have achieved successful lives

and careers of their own; sisters in everything but blood. The girls all keep in touch, come home for all the special holidays and phone or drop in regularly, often with families of their own.

The boys are also aware that not every child can be helped. That heartbreak happens. And this is perhaps, for the extended family, the hardest truth to bear.

My grandsons have observed that with love, respect and kindness a lot is achievable. That if you have a strong back and the determination to affect change as their parents do, it is possible to save a child at risk.

The challenges are enormous. The rewards are to be found at family gatherings where the strong bond between them all is self evident in the laughter, joking, and kidding around!

If God made it, it has to be good thrives on even the most marginal of soils with nowhere near the fertilizer needed to grow corn. It actually fixes nitrogen into the soil as it grows and so makes a great rotational crop. If used for paper-making it takes huge amounts of carbon dioxide out of the air in its four-month growing season and could stop humans from cutting down all of the forests God clothed his planet with in the Beginning.

Or, did their God create this plant so some politically powerful men could build prisons and throw young people into little cages for many years because they grew a few of these amazing plants? Did their God create this situation so that corrupt officials and gangsters could become fabulously wealthy because of prohibition? Perhaps God was creating police, prison guard, lawyer and judge jobs by locking up over one million Americans for possessing this plant? Despite the obscenely high ratio of African American and Hispanic pot possessors in the vast U.S. prison system I did not bother asking if they thought their God was racist in any way.

But, back to Canada ... recently Justin Trudeau had the political courage to publicly call for the legalization of cannabis in Canada.

He made his public statements in British Columbia where, just across the border in Washington State, along with Colorado, enlightened Americans have legalized cannabis already. Justinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Liberals would legalize, regulate and tax cannabis.

itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our

Money would flow to taxpayers instead of organized crime. Our kids would be safer as the dealers on the street would disappear, along with the meth, cocaine and heroin they offer to kids who come looking for a bit of pot.

And then we have the Harper Government approach to cannabis.

Despite all evidence on the incredible values of this plant and the fact not one person has ever died from inhaling, compared to the unbelievable costs of the 40-year-old, total failure of Nixonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;War on Drugs,â&#x20AC;? Harper & Co. reiterate all of the old propaganda which is nothing more than a pack of lies. As usual the Harperites are in their ideological black box where evidence-based policies will never see the light of day.

Conservative MP Rick Norlock had his ignorance of the topic on full display last week. Scaring people is his conservative-approved tactic.

People will start smoking marijuana and driving! We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need that!

Earth to Rick: Those drivers are already out there along with the other irresponsible louts who drink too much alcohol, work double shifts with no sleep and then drive home or consume nasty combinations of legally prescribed drugs some doctor gave them for pain or depression. The standing joke is that a pot smoking driver is much less dangerous because he is more likely to be sitting at a stop sign waiting for it to turn green than he is to be running it.

Here is the real wake up call for Canadians.

One Trudeau enough in a lifetime Dear Editor, Take it from Alan Coxwell that Justin Trudeau, a socialist facsimile of his own father, will make a better Prime Minister than Stephen Harper.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because Justin has so much experience in the political sphere.

In reality, his election would take Canada on the road to economic disaster but then the Liberalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; major objective is to have the inmates run the asylum.

One Trudeau in a lifetime should be enough for one country to digest.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re barely recovering from the Marxist agenda of Pierre so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m predicting the death knell for Canada if another Trudeau, especially a spoiled

millionaire with only socialist ideas dancing in his head, gets elected.

My prediction is that a Trudeau-led government will have the same impact as Barack Obama has had in the United States. Our friends south of the border have been going downhill both economically and on the world stage in the Obama era. You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect someone with a limited knowledge of the political system or a naĂŻve response to terrorism and tainted by a far-left agenda to be a good custodian.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have a tough time electing Justin to the top job in any of our own regional municipal councils let alone making him the national leader. The U.S. is $17 trillion in debt, much of it since Obama took over. Expect more of the same under a Trudeau Liberal regime.

As for Alan Coxwellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s letter, he should know, as a former newspaper publisher, that people are generally innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. But it would seem Mr. Coxwell is far wiser than any court system because he has already concluded that everyone involved in the Duffy affair is guilty without the facts.

On the other hand Justin Trudeau was merely doing what comes naturally (being a capitalist only for his own greed) when he took time out of his parliamentary duties to charge lavish speaking fees for doing what he should be expected to do as part of being an MP. The only reason he has become the latest Liberal leader is because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cute, cuddly and his â&#x20AC;&#x153;charismaâ&#x20AC;? shines throughâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;something it seems almost a must to be successful in politics these days. It also helps that his father, Pierre, was a former prime minister, elected even though he was always a closet Communist.

But â&#x20AC;&#x153;we the peopleâ&#x20AC;? know where the truth lies. Locking people up for growing this plant is a highly immoral act. It is time we quit following the Americanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lead and became intelligent, courageous and compassionate leaders in our own right.

Dear Editor, Sometimes when Jehovahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Witnesses knock on my front door I politely take time to talk with them. From different witnesses I have learned that drinking alcoholic beverages is okay within their belief system but drunkenness is frowned upon. When I ask them what they think of using marijuana they simply say it is illegal and they have been told it is bad stuff. When I ask them if they also believe God created everything in Heaven and on Earth they say the Bible told them so. Continuing with my logic I point out that according to their beliefs God must therefore have designed and built the cannabis plant.

Then I ask them why they think God put the cannabis plant on His Earth.

I usually get a perplexed look in return. So, I continue with my questioning by asking if they think their God made different strains of the hemp plant to provide humanity with a plant capable of creating materials for clothing, paper, building materials, fuel from both pressing of its seeds and distilling ethanol from its stocks, a host of medicines for the ill, the highest protein seeds (next to soybeans) for our food, resins from which we can make plastics, paints, etc. etc. The list could go on, but they get the picture. To bolster this list I add this plant is the only plant I know of which will grow in all climates anywhere around Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s planet and perhaps most encouraging of all we do not need to spray hemp with pesticides or herbicides and it

The most important hamburger You just can’t make this stuff up

EMC Editorial - The most important hamburger in the history of the world was cooked (but only half-eaten) in London on Monday. It was grown in a lab, not cut from a cow, and it tasted—well, not quite good enough to fool the experts, but then they forgot the ketchup, mustard, cheese, onion, bacon, tomato and lettuce. Not to mention the fries.

“I miss the fat, there’s a leanness to it,” said food writer Josh Schonwald, “but the general bite feels like a hamburger.”

Gwynne Dyer Austrian food critic Hanni Ruetzler agreed: “It’s not that juicy, but the consistency is perfect. This is meat to me. It’s not falling apart; it’s really something to bite on.”

Even in a blind tasting, she added, she would say that it was real meat and not a soya copy.

Of course she would. It was real meat, grown from a cow’s stem cells just like the flesh of its own body. It tasted lean because the stem cells the experimenters used were only programmed to make muscle tissue, not fat. (They’re working on that.) The real test was whether tens of billions of lab-grown muscle cells could be organised into something with the consistency of proper meat, not mush, and the lab-burger passed that test with flying colours.

But why would anybody want to pass that test? What’s wrong with just eating cows—and sheep and pigs and chickens? Far beyond the objections of vegetarians and animal-rights activists, what’s wrong with eating “natural” meat is that there are too many of us, eating too much of it, and we’re running out of land to grow it on.

“Right now, we are using 70 per cent of all our agricultural capacity to grow meat through livestock,” Professor Mark Post, the lead researcher, told The Independent at a conference in Vancouver last year. “You are going to need alternatives. If we don’t do anything, meat will become a luxury food and will become very expensive ….”

“Livestock also contributes a lot to greenhouse gas emissions, more so than our entire transport system,” explained Post, a medical physiologist at Maastricht University in the Netherlands.

“Livestock produces 39 per cent of global methane, 5 per cent of the CO2, and 40 per cent of the nitrous oxide. Eventually, we will have an eco-tax on meat.” On meat raised in the open air, that is.

Whereas meat grown in the lab is a potentially inexhaustible resource, and it does far less environmental damage. According to an Oxford University study published in 2011, a tonne of “cultured” beef would require 99 per cent less land and between

82 and 96 per cent less water than its “natural” rival, and would produce between 78 and 95 per cent less greenhouse gas. It would also use 45 per cent less energy.

These are seriously impressive numbers. If Post’s process can scale up successfully, then in ten or twenty years we could be producing enough meat for a growing global population even though many people are eating more meat per capita as their incomes rise. Moreover, we would be able to turn most of that 70 per cent of agricultural land back into forest and prairie, or switch it to growing grain for human consumption.

“There are basically three things that can happen going forward,” said Google co-founder Sergey Brin, who bankrolled Post’s research. “One is that we can all become vegetarian. I don’t think that’s really likely. The second is we ignore the issues, and that leads to continued environmental harm. The third option is we do something new.”

“Some people think this is science fiction. I actually think that’s a good thing. If what you’re doing is not seen by some people as science fiction, it’s probably not transformative enough … We’re trying to create the first cultured beef hamburger. From there I’m optimistic we can really scale [up] by leaps and bounds.”

You probably can. Post’s technique involves extracting stem cells from cow muscle tissue and growing them “in vitro” for three weeks, providing nutrients and growth-promoting chemicals.

Then the mass of new cells is transferred to smaller dishes where they find themselves between two electrodes—and self-organise into strips of muscle tissue.

Then you give the new muscle tissue some exercise (to bulk it up) by applying small shocks that make it contract. And then it’s hamburger meat, ready to be cooked. Growing an actual steak would be more complex, but in theory it could be done by getting the strips of muscle tissue to take shape on a biodegradable lattice that includes artificial blood vessels to deliver nutrients and oxygen to the interior of the steak.

So let’s assume you can produce this beef in industrial quantities, complete with fat cells so that it tastes just like the meat that comes from the slaughterhouse. Could you get people to buy it?

No problem. Just price it about 20 per cent cheaper than the “real thing.” Those of us who are keeping up with the Joneses will buy the premium product; the rest of us will buy the one that’s just as good but costs less.

Oh, and why didn’t they eat the whole hamburger on Monday?

Because there was no way that you could share out what was left equally between so many journalists, and they sometimes get quite nasty if they’re thwarted. So Mark Post said he’d take it home to his children.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

No praise for Hydro One from this resident

Dear Editor, I recently read Mr. Ralph Blom’s letter praising Hydro One for its “conscience, dedication and kindness” in their negotiations regarding a new hydro line to Brighton.

I can only conclude that Hydro One is better at dealing with new clients and than old ones.

Last fall (September 2012) a gentleman from the forestry division of Hydro One came in preparation for clearing of the line on our property. I explained that we had planted the cedar hedge to provide some privacy from the road and discourage intruders on the trails we had cut through the property. He assured me that they were safe and that the most that would be done, if needed, was to trim the tops since they were still several feet from the hydro line. He later marked the trees to be cut with a red H. On the day that Hydro One came to do the work, my brother went done the road and spoke with a supervisor who assured him that his instructions were to leave the cedars. You can imagine my reaction later in the day when I returned home to discover that almost all the cedars had been cut and we no longer had a hedge. Indeed we had lost over 200 trees It has become obvious to me over the months following the

loss of our trees that it is very much a gamble totally dependent on the crew that arrives on the day. Our neighbour has asked Hydro One to remove the very old trees that run along his fields.

In the last year at least three of those trees have fallen and taken out the hydro line. As a result we have been without hydro for several days over the last year. The rest of the those trees remain to fall at some time in the future.

Once they have cut the trees there is no recourse. Hydro One under pressure to extricate itself from responsibility is now claiming that an unregistered easement from 1986 allows them to clear whatever they wish. It took them three months to find the easement.

Why then did Hydro One send a representative to discuss what they would cut if they had no intention of following his recommendations nor feel any responsibility for the damage caused by their crew?

Why is one supervisor allowed to ignore written orders and clear cut our trees when others obviously cut more judiciously?

Is Hydro not responsible for the damage he caused?

EMC Editorial - Shades of George Dubya.

As most people are aware, on Friday the United States issued a terrorism alert saying once again that they had reason to believe that Al Qaeda was about to pull off another major attack.

They didn’t say where the attack would take place. They didn’t say when the attack would take place, only that they had reason to believe it would happen in the next month.

So to be on the safe side, the U.S. issued a travel warning to its citizens advising them that maybe boarding an aircraft and landing in a country other than the U.S., might not be in their best interests. They then proceeded to close 21 foreign embassies and consulates just in case. Canada’s Foreign Minister John Baird followed suit closing our embassy in Bangladesh. We are after all, close allies of the U.S. and Israel and are now tarred with the same brush throughout most of the Muslim world. But one has to question the timing of this latest warning.

Think back just a few years ago to the era of George W Bush. When his poll numbers plummeted, terrorist threat warnings magically increased. When he ran for re-election, terrorist activity warnings flowed freely from Capital Hill. When he successfully scared his country’s citizens enough to get re-elected, the threat of a terrorist attack and the warnings abruptly stopped. It appears the masterminds at Al Qaeda really loved good old George, so much so that they helped his re-election campaign.

Now we have a U.S. government falling in the polls, plagued by revelations of snooping on its own citizens as well as other countries around the world. This isn’t going over well, as one would expect in the land of the free. Most Americans take their Constitution very seriously and consider the intrusive actions of the National Security Agency (NSA) a crime against their freedoms.

A majority of Americans also believe Edward Snowden is a whistleblower and not a traitor. At one point in time President Obama thought the country needed more whistle blowers; a quick perusal of his speeches during his election campaign will bear this out. Transparent government he promised, sounding very much like our own prime minister when he was out on the hustings.

So why the terrorist alert last week?

On the heels of a too-close-for-comfort vote on an amendment to the defence appropriations bill that would have defunded the NSA’s collection of email and phone data, the White House had to do something to divert the public’s attention.

Considering more members of his own

party voted for the amendment than against it, Obama had his back up against the wall. A majority of Republicans saved his bacon. And on Sunday, the usual suspects showed up on television to crow that the NSA had once again saved the day.

Throw in last week’s news that Russia had granted temporary asylum to leaker Edward Snowden despite the U.S.’s threats and Obama was looking like a major wimp. Evidently Vladimir Putin wasn’t really too concerned with Obama’s threat not to show up at a scheduled meeting later this year. Considering the U.S. government has ignored repeated requests to extradite criminals to Russia, Russia’s response can be explained as tit for tat.

But why would Al Qaeda want to kill U.S. citizens at this time? After all, didn’t the U.S. just agree to send weapons to the Syrian rebels who include Al Qaeda and jihadists from around the world. They already were through their proxies in Qatar, Turkey and Saudi Arabia but this time it was all above board. Talk about Al Qaeda looking a gift horse in the mouth.

If we’re looking for terrorism suspects, one might think that the citizens of Iraq would be a little more peeved than Al Qaeda at the moment considering the devastation the Yanks and Brits inflicted on their country. Just last month almost 1,000 people were killed in sectarian violence in that failed state though you wouldn’t know that from following North American news.

Anew Iranian president was inaugurated on Saturday, more moderate than all the other candidates on the ballot, but before he was even sworn in having won on a platform of engaging the west, the U.S. put new sanctions on the country. That might make somebody a little upset. While the Grand Ayatollah still holds the real power in the country, at least Rouhani has more pull than most Iranians as he is recognized as one of the fathers of the revolution.

Engagement might be a thought instead of more crippling sanctions.

Another Monday night headline had the U.S. threatening Pakistan with sanctions because that country and Iran have a much-needed pipeline deal to pump natural gas from Iran to Pakistan. At the moment Pakistan is energy starved and its economy is in tatters. When you consider the U.S. has only around a ten per cent approval rating in Pakistan because of its incessant drone strikes, there are probably more candidates out there with an axe to grind than just Al Qaeda.

Let’s hope this is just another case of the Oval Office ruling by fear and not a real terrorist threat. U.S. meddling throughout the world certainly isn’t making it any friends.

Baby loon rescue has happy ending

By Bill Freeman

EMC News - Hastings - Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a story with a happy ending that almost ended in tragedy.

A baby loon entangled in ďŹ shing line and a bobber spent a frantic day-

long life and death struggle in front of a Hastings cottage before unidentiďŹ ed good Samaritans were able to come to the rescue of the young bird as its mother called out in fearful panic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Listening to the mother calling, it

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused our valued customers.

was just frantic, it [just] broke your heart and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what we listened to all day, the mother trying to save her baby,â&#x20AC;? said Wendy Asselstine, a riverside resident who ďŹ rst spotted the entangled loon early one morning.

It was a baby loon Asselstine and neighbouring cottagers had watched â&#x20AC;&#x153;being parented from the moment it was bornâ&#x20AC;? and as she watched it that day she noticed that a bobber was wrapped around its wing.

She and a neighbour went out in a boat to see if they could net and catch the bird but â&#x20AC;&#x153;really didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any luck. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every time we would get close to him the mother loon would call out and it would dive and when the baby came back up it would have the bobber all entangled with weeds.â&#x20AC;?

They decided the best thing to do was leave it alone because they feared it would continue to dive away and get tangled up and not come back to the surface.

At that point, Asselstine began to call â&#x20AC;&#x153;every government wildlife agency [she] could possibly think ofâ&#x20AC;? looking for assistance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I got the runaround most of the morning.â&#x20AC;?

The only organization that â&#x20AC;&#x153;showed concern,â&#x20AC;? she said, was the Sandy Pines Wildlife Centre in Napanee but because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entirely funded through donations it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a budget to go out and do rescues but they were willing to take the loon if it could be caught and was in danger of not being able to be released.

Other than that it was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;circle of sorry there is nothing we can do,â&#x20AC;?

Asselstine said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just kept watching it during the course of the day and for a period of time lost sight of it but I could see the mother loon going up and down the shoreline crying out for its baby.â&#x20AC;?

Nearby cottagers were aware that something untoward was happening; they were also familiar with the loon family.

The water is very shallow near Asselstineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cottage and only accessible by pontoon boat but the cottagers had a pontoon boat and came to the rescue with Asselstine guiding them between the mother and baby.

able to net the baby and painstakingly disentangled the frightened bird. When it realized it was liberated it joyfully ďŹ&#x201A;ew away. Asselstine says the loon family has moved to secluded island one and a-half kilometres away. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like us to be around them and we really tormented them trying to catch the baby,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know

theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re there because we hear them.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The point I want to make is that living on the water is not always a pretty sight when you see a baby loon struggling for its life.â&#x20AC;?

To the heroic cottagers she has this to say: â&#x20AC;&#x153;They saved that baby. I wish I had their names but they know who they are.â&#x20AC;?

Flourish campaign keen to start community phase

By Bill Freeman

EMC News - Hastings - The ďŹ&#x201A;ourishing Trent Hills Wellness Campaign, already over the $1-million mark, is gearing up for its community phase, says campaign co-ordinator Tonya Smith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been in a kind of quiet phase and now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting ready to announce it to the whole community and get everybody involved,â&#x20AC;? Smith said.

The community phase of the two-year, $7-million campaign will include town hall meetings in Hastings, Warkworth and Campbellford.

The â&#x20AC;&#x153;uniqueâ&#x20AC;? campaign involves the Municipality of Trent Hills, the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation and Campbellford-Seymour Foundation; each has established fundraising targets and projects.

The Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goal is $4 million to acquire essential diagnostic equipment including a digital mammography unit, colonoscopes and gastroscopes and additional cancer care equipment.

The municipality wants to raise $1 million as part of its ambitious community recreation and wellness centre with â&#x20AC;&#x153;campusesâ&#x20AC;? in Campbellford, Hastings and Warkworth. The Campbellford facility will include an arena, aquatic centre, indoor walking track and multipurpose room with kitchen.

Hastings will get an indoor, heated multi-sport ďŹ eld house that will accommodate everything from soccer to an indoor golf driving range. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very state-of-the-art, very innovative,â&#x20AC;? Smith said of the planned ďŹ eld house at Fowlds Millennium Park. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Very exciting things.â&#x20AC;?

In Warkworth there will be an accessible, single-storey addition to the arena as well as multi-purpose rooms and more dressing rooms, are envisaged.

The total project cost for three facilities is $33 million. The municipality will apply for federal and provincial infrastructure money they hope will

cover two-thirds, or $22 million, of the total project cost.

The $11-million balance will come from the municipality and the general public with Trent Hills contributing $10 million by tapping into available municipal funds and carrying a loan.

The remaining $1 million will be raised within the community.

The Campbellford-Seymour Foundation aims to raise $2 million in order to establish â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smart Caring Fundsâ&#x20AC;? for both Hastings and Warkworth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their focus is now only Campbellford and Seymour and they want to branch out and have some money to enable Warkworth and Hastings to access grants,â&#x20AC;? says Smith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now the Foundation canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t grant to Hastings projects but when they raise $2 million we have the ability to access $1 million for our grants. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just moving it to the two communities.â&#x20AC;?

Speaking of the Hastings ďŹ eld house, Smith, a Hastings resident, said it will beneďŹ t the village â&#x20AC;&#x153;greatly by providing a facility we can use year round, especially with soccer being so popular.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel the [campaign] is very important for all of Trent Hills especially as someone with a young family who has chosen to stay here; my roots are here, my children are growing up here. Everything from the hospital to the recreation centre is necessary [and] important to families here.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very unique campaign,â&#x20AC;? Smith added.

Donors can earmark their contribution to a speciďŹ c project component or to the campaign in general. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d really like Hastings to mirror what they did for the playground,â&#x20AC;? Smith said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is kind of the same thing and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like Hastings to shine as great as it did with the playground. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would like people talking about it, raving about it and getting the word out as once town fund raisers come up.â&#x20AC;?

Retired history teacher keeps hospital in the spotlight

By Sue Dickens

EMC News - Campbellford - â&#x20AC;&#x153;It has always been an interest of mine,â&#x20AC;? said Ann Rowe, who taught history to Grades 7/8 students in Campbellford for 32 years.

That interest led to her active involvement with the CampbellfordSeymour Heritage Society which in turn led to her interest in the Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH), which is now celebrating its 60th anniversary.

Rowe knows all about the hospital

and the decades of care its professionals have provided to the communities it serves.

Tractors pull their weight for War Amps

By Bill Freeman

EMC News - South Dummer Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a South Dummer tradition that stretches across the region.

The Andy Calder Antique Tractor Pull and Show wrapped up a 13th anniversary competition Saturday and gave the War Amps of

Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s child amputee program another signiďŹ cant boost of $3,000 pushing the 13-year total to nearly $30,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been running 13 years and that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to raise over $26,000 [through 2012],â&#x20AC;? Denise Calder said as

long-time tractor buffs did some last-minute ďŹ ne tuning as they prepared to haul concrete blocks down the track.

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event drew around 80 tractors going head-to-head in several weight and wheel rim size categories.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The drivers look forward to this day,â&#x20AC;? Calder said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing to see the people under the trees,â&#x20AC;? she said noting the throng of loyal spectators who show up every year and enjoy the view from under the shade trees. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the crowd wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t watching why

would you put a show on? It all depends on the crowd.â&#x20AC;?

And it is certainly a showcase for the antique tractors and a show for the drivers, Calder admits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is more of a show. There is a bit of competition but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deďŹ nitely for fun.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very much a social time, she added.

Her son Evan is a beneďŹ ciary of War Amps programs for child amputees; heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also a diehard tractor fan who competes and ďŹ ts right in with the old-timers who have spent generations around the machines.

His mother is unstinting in her praise and admiration for the War Amps. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is our charity because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been so good to us.

Any time you need anything you give them a call and someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right there to answer any questions. When Evan got arms there was no cost to us; everything was right there when needed.â&#x20AC;?

She says the War Amps go about their business modestly and very effectively. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just like anything else, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually there until you need to use it and then itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s available.â&#x20AC;?

Calder adds that there are local families that utilize The War Amps programs.

Events like the Calder tractor pull raise public awareness about The War Amps and remind people of the services it offers.

Coping with Pet Loss...Grieving the Death

of a Dog or Cat and Moving On

Understanding grief after the loss of a pet

For many people a pet is not “just a dog” or “just a cat.” Pets are beloved members of the family and, when they die, you feel a significant, even traumatic loss. The level of grief depends on factors such as your age and personality, the age of your pet, and the circumstances of their death. Generally, the more significant the loss, the more intense the grief you’ll feel.

Grief can be complicated by the role the animal played in your life. For example, if your pet was a working dog or a helper animal such as a guide dog, then you’ll not only be grieving the loss of a companion but also the loss of a coworker or the loss of your independence.

If you cared for your pet through a protracted illness, you likely grew to love him even more. If you lived alone and the pet was your only companion, coming to terms with his loss can be even harder.

If you were unable to afford expensive veterinary treatment to prolong the life of your pet, you may even feel a profound sense of guilt.

Everyone grieves differently

sound, or a special anniversary can spark memories that trigger a strong sense of grief.

The grieving process happens only gradually. It can’t be forced or hurried— and there is no “normal” timetable for grieving. Some people start to feel better in weeks or months; others, it is measured in years. Be patient with yourself and allow the process to naturally unfold.

Feeling sad, frightened, or lonely is a normal reaction to the loss of a beloved pet. Exhibiting these feelings doesn’t mean you are weak, so you shouldn’t feel ashamed.

Trying to ignore your pain or keep it from surfacing will only make it worse in the long run. For real healing, it is necessary to face your grief and actively deal with it. By expressing your grief, you’ll likely need less time to heal than if you withhold or “bottle up” your feelings.

Dealing with the loss of a pet when others devalue your loss

One aspect that can make grieving for the loss of a pet so difficult is that pet loss is not appreciated by everyone. Friends and family may ask “What’s the big deal?

It’s just a pet!” Some people assume that pet loss shouldn’t hurt as much as human loss, or that it is somehow inappropriate to grieve for an animal. They may not understand because they don’t have a pet of their own, or because they are unable to appreciate the companionship and love that a pet can provide.

Don’t argue with others about whether your grief is appropriate or not.

Accept the fact that the best support for your grief may come from outside your usual circle of friends and family members. Seek out others who have lost pets; those who can appreciate the magnitude of your loss, and may be able to suggest ways of getting through the grieving process.

Grieving is a personal and highly individual experience. Some people find grief comes in stages, where they experience different feelings such as denial, anger, guilt, depression, and eventually acceptance and resolution. Others find that grief is more cyclical, coming in waves, or a series of highs and lows. The Tips for coping with the grief of pet lows are likely to be deeper and longer at loss the beginning and then gradually become Sorrow and grief are normal and natushorter and less intense as time goes by. ral responses to death. Like grief for huStill, even years after a loss, a sight, a mans, grief for animal companions can

only be dealt with over time, but there are healthy ways to cope with the pain. Here are some suggestions: Don’t let anyone tell you how to feel, and don’t tell yourself how to feel either.

Your grief is your own, and no one else can tell you when it’s time to “move on” or “get over it.” Let yourself feel whatever you feel; be angry, to cry or not cry, laugh and find moments of joy, and to let go when you’re ready.

Rituals can help healing. A funeral can help you and your family members openly express your feelings. Ignore people who think it’s inappropriate to hold a funeral for a pet, and do what feels right for you.

Create a legacy. Preparing a memorial, planting a tree in memory of your pet, compiling a photo album or scrapbook, or otherwise sharing the memories you enjoyed with your pet, can create a legacy to celebrate the life of your animal companion.

Look after yourself. The stress of losing a pet can quickly deplete your energy and emotional reserves. Looking after your physical and emotional needs will help you get through this difficult time.

Eat a healthy diet, get plenty of sleep, and exercise regularly to release endorphins and help boost your mood.

If you have other pets, try to maintain your normal routine. Surviving pets can also experience loss when a pet dies, or they may become distressed by your sorrow. Maintaining their daily routines, or even increasing exercise and play times, will not only benefit the surviving pets but may also help to elevate your outlook too.

Tips for seniors to cope with pet loss

As we age, we experience an increasing number of major life changes, including the loss of beloved friends, family members, and pets. The death of a pet can hit retired seniors even harder than younger adults who may be able to draw on the comfort of a close family, or distract themselves with the routine of work.

For older adults who live alone, the pet may be your sole companion, and taking care of the animal provided you with a

sense of purpose and self-worth.

Try to find new meaning anf joy in life. Caring for a pet previously occupied your time and boosted your morale and optimism. Try to fill that time by volunteering, picking up a long-neglected hobby, taking a class, helping friends care for their pets, or even by getting another pet when the time feels right.

Stay connected with friends. Pets, dogs especially, can help seniors meet new people or regularly connect with friends and neighbors while out on a walk or in the dog park, for example. Having lost your pet, it’s important that you don’t now spend day after day alone. Try to spend time with at least one person every day. Regular face-to-face contact can help you ward off depression and stay positive. Call up an old friend or neighbour for a lunch date or join a club.

Boost your vitality with excercise.

Pets help many older adults stay active and playful, which can boost your immune system and increase your energy.

It’s important to keep up your activity levels after the loss of your pet. Check with your doctor before starting an exercise program and then find an activity that you enjoy. Exercising in a group—by playing a sport such as tennis or golf, or taking an exercise or swimming class— can also help you connect with others.

Getting another dog or cat: Moving on after pet loss

There are many wonderful reasons to

once again share your life with a companion animal, but the decision of when to do so is a very personal one. It may be tempting to rush out and fill the void left by your pet’s death by immediately getting another pet. In most cases, it’s best to mourn the old pet first, and wait until you’re emotionally ready to open your heart and your home to a new animal.

Some retired seniors living alone, however, may find it hardest to adjust to life without a pet. If taking care of an animal provided you with a sense of purpose and self-worth as well as companionship, you may want to consider getting another pet at an earlier stage. Of course, seniors also need to consider their own health and life expectancy when deciding on a new pet.

Each animal is different, so trying to exactly duplicate your old pet will likely result only in frustration and disappointment. A new pet should be appreciated fully for its own sake, not as a direct replacement. That may mean choosing another type of pet or a different breed.

Whatever you decide, give yourself time to grieve the loss of your old friend and follow your instincts. You will know when it is right to bring a new animal companion into your life.

Given the intense bond most of us share with our animals, it’s natural to feel devastated by feelings of grief and sadness when a pet dies. While some people may not understand the depth of feeling we have for our pets, you should never feel guilty or ashamed about grieving for an animal friend. Instead, use these healthy ways to cope with the loss, comfort yourself and others, and begin the process of moving on.

Flyball mania takes over fairgrounds

By Bill Freeman

EMC News - Norwood - It was a Hot Diggity Dog kind of holiday weekend at the Norwood Fairgrounds.

Flyball dog teams from across Ontario, Quebec and even neighbouring Michigan travelled to Asphodel-Norwood filling Hot Diggity Dogs’ ninth annual competition to the limit.

In all, 36 teams raced at the venerable Brethen Coliseum with teams using the spacious fairgrounds to camp out.

“We had too many teams this year and had to turn one away,” Natalie Cornell of Hot Diggity Dogs said. “All of a sudden everyone wanted to come and we had too many, more than we’ve ever had.”

Norwood comes by its good reputation through hard work and all the “extra touches” volunteers lay on for visitors.

Event hospitality and the availability of the Norwood District High School grounds “to let dogs unwind” and play a little Frisbee are two other features that Cornell says visitors mention when they talk about the Norwood show.

The other thing, she adds, is that they allow competitors to set up their trailers starting Thursday night.

“They make a holiday out of it as we do. It’s a social sport.”

Hot Diggity Dogs is a regular guest at the Norwood Fair where its demo shows draw large crowds.

Cornell was thrilled that Spring Loaded from Michigan and Border Patrol from Hagersville were in Norwood for the first time and that the Peterborough Fly Ball Dog Club was making its competition debut.

“We’re so thrilled to see the Peterborough Club, there’s never been a North American Flyball Association club from Peterborough,” says Cornell.

In fact, the Peterborough Club benefited directly from Hot Diggity Dogs because founder Ross Jamieson spent

OPEN to o M nday y a d r Satu

a year with club before striking out on his own.

“He saw us [at a demo] and thought this would be something fun to do in Peterborough,” Cornell said.

Having Spring Loaded at the Coliseum was a real coup, she added.

The U.S. club brought its dazzling “15 second team,” the fastest four-dog unit in the world.

The quartet (Butters, Hype, Excel, Mission) clocks in at 15.158 seconds for a complete race which requires each dog to run down and back along a 51-foot-long track clearing four hurdles on the way then depositing a ball in a spring board at the halfway point.

Blink and you’d miss the action.

Cornell enjoys the sport as much as she did 13 years ago when she first began.

“I still have the freshness I had 14

years ago but I’m a lot smarter. I’ve learned a lot about training and running a club.”

The Frankford-area club has 16 members from 11 to 80 years of age and participates in seven to eight tourneys a year along with demo shows like this weekend’s appearances at Belleville Ribfest and the Campbellford Fair.

“We don’t do as many tourneys but we’re still out there and do have a full season,” says Cornell.

“I love welcoming the new members and dogs; give the dogs a couple of years of training and they’re ready to race. It’s so sweet.”

Natalie Cornell, founder of the Hot Diggity Dogs flyball club, holds Pollywog, a one-year-old miniature pinscher who is training to become a flyball competitor. The club hosted its ninth annual show at the Norwood Fairgrounds over the holiday weekend. Photo: Bill Freeman

Fate of trees not good in wake of emerald ash borer

By Bill Freeman

EMC News - Norwood - The fate of local ash trees is on the line as emerald ash borer beetles bear down on them.

“It’s not going to be a good thing for ash trees,” says Jeff Waldon, Asphodel-Norwood acting manager of public works and environmental services. Waldon attended a workshop hosted by Peterborough County and learned more about the Asian beetle which has killed tens of millions of ash trees since it was discovered in southeastern Michigan near Detroit in 2002.

In Ontario, the emerald ash borer was first detected in Windsor in 2004 and has since been confirmed in 30 counties; Roseneath has now been added to the growing list as has Durham region.

Scientists believe the exotic beetle arrived in the United States on solid wood packing material carried on cargo ships or airplanes originating from its native Asia.

“I haven’t driven around the town to see what we have for ash [but] I don’t think there’s many along the streets,” Waldon said.

Tracking done during the spring on the south side of Rice Lake turned up evidence of the emerald ash borer, Waldon said.

“Some of the photos they showed from Pickering and Oshawa were pretty bad for ash trees. It’s something that’s going to be a high pain for us when the bugs get through.”

Peterborough County is putting together a collaborative plan to deal with the invasion working closely with anybody who has concerns about

the beetle, he says.

“It starts as a larva in the top of the tree and works its way down,” Waldon said. “It might take a couple of years but it kills all the feeding of the trees down to the roots and they snap off at the ground.”

The adult beetles forage on the ash leaves but cause little damage; the larvae, in its immature stage, feed on the inner bark of the tree disrupting the tree’s ability to transport water and nutrients.

All species of ash are vulnerable to the emerald ash borer.

“As far as woodlots there’s not a great deal you can do about it; it’s a pretty expensive process to treat the trees,” says Waldon.

It costs about $8 an inch around the diameter of a tree so a 20 inch tree would cost $150 and the treatment

needs to be done every two years, he said.

One of the ironies of this developing tragedy, Waldon notes, is that many municipal forestry programs stricken

by Dutch Elm disease in the 1970s replaced those elm trees with ash.

Apart from controlled treatment, another way of limiting the spread of emerald ash borer is to be vigilant about how firewood is used.

On its own the beetle can’t travel very far, says the Canadian Food Inspection Agency, but it can hide in firewood.

“Moving untreated firewood, even just a few kilometres to or from a campground or a cottage, is a common way for invasive insects and diseases to spread,” the CFIA warns.

They encourage people to buy wood locally and to burn it on site.

EMC Sports - Cobourg - The Campbellford Ontario Power Generation Bantam Cougars are Ontario champs.

The team of ďŹ rst-year Bantams knocked off Tavistock 9 - 6 in the OASA provincial bantam â&#x20AC;&#x153;Aâ&#x20AC;? ďŹ nal at Legion Field in Cobourg to take the crown.

The ďŹ fth seeded Cougars are perhaps the ďŹ rst all-rookie team to win the OASA Bantam â&#x20AC;&#x153;Aâ&#x20AC;? title, tourney director Bruce Young said.

Campbellford headed to the provincial tourney as the ďŹ fth seed after the New Dundee elimination tourney in July and turned that seeding upside

down. They achieved their goal running through the preliminary round with an undefeated record after wins over Port Perry, Grand Valley and then Tavistock in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;undefeatedâ&#x20AC;? game with the winner punching a ticket to the OASA championship game.

The Cougars met Tavistock in the ďŹ nal but Tavistock needed two wins in the double-knockout format to claim the OASA title.

In the opener, Campbellford blanked Port Perry 6 - 0 with pitcher Ben Broek yielding three hits and fanning ten batters. Highlights at the plate included Stewart Battmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s double and Jake McCawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s triple and home plate steal

that scored two runs.

Campbellford then met top seeded Grand Valley and set them aside 6 - 2 with singles by Ty Tebo, Broek and Battman building up a 2 - 0 ďŹ rst-inning lead. The Cougars moved ahead 6 - 0 in the sixth with singles by Battman, Austin Fry, Dawson Whyte and Tebo helping out.

Broek was steady on the mound giving up six hits and striking out six batters including the ďŹ nal two of the game with two runners on base.

The win set up a huge game against Tavistock with the winner going directly into the ďŹ nal.

ER manager has a lengthy career in nursing

By Sue Dickens

EMC News - Campbellford - Celebrating its 60th anniversary, Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) has been like a second home to Sue Robinson, a Registered Nurse (RN).

“I was born in this building,” she said, talking about her 34-year career in nursing.

Attending elementary and high school here, she graduated from a twoyear nursing program at Loyalist College, Belleville, in 1979. Her first job: working as a part-time RN at CMH. She admits it was a different world back then.

“The first floor was a very active medical surgical floor with a four-bed special care unit. We saw a lot of pediatrics at that time, a lot of gall bladders, hysterectomies where patients would stay seven to ten days. We also saw a lot of diabetics. People stayed in the hospital longer in those days,” she said.

Infections that needed antibiotics were inpatient care then. Now the first dose is given in emerge (Emergency Department – ER) and the Community Care Access Centre follows up.”

In 1980-1981 she became “I have a great bunch of full-time. people to work with who a “I worked the first floor very supportive, including and learned a lot of skills and the administration,” she comin the special care unit getting mented. all my cardiac skills,” she For Robinson her career noted. choice was the right one.

Ladds will lead the ACH league this year

By Bill Freeman

EMC Sports - Cambridge - The former president of the Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) will lead the Allan Cup Hockey League (ACH) this season.

Brent Ladds’ appointment as commissioner of the ACH was made public during the association’s annual general meeting in Cambridge. He replaces Don Robertson, president of the Dundas Real McCoys, who was quick to assure the six ACH teams that the appointment of Ladds was a positive move for the league.

Ladds, a Life Member of the OHA, retired as president in 2012.

The Norwood Vipers are back in the ACH this year after a one-year hiatus joining Dundas, the Brantford Blast, Orillia Tundra, Whitby Dunlops and the Welland Whalers.

“Having Brent lead our league as the new commissioner this season is the right move to make,” Robertson said.

“This is a time when our league is going through an expansion process and with the 2014 Allan Cup championship in Dundas [his] 36 years in the game

But covering the balance of the costs is a priority. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are still appealing for funds not just from parishioners but from friends of St. Jerome as well.

The Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) which became law on June 13, 2005, is breaking down the barriers faced by people with disabilities.

There is a timeline for public places with the goal to make them accessible by 2025. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sooner or later every public building will have to have access for the disabled,â&#x20AC;? said Weilandt.

The church has a long history in the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In 2012 we had our 110th anniversary,â&#x20AC;? said Father Barol.

Fund raising continues with a golf tournament and dinner which will take place at Salt Creek Golf Course on Sunday, August 18. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For those who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t golf they can just come to the dinner,â&#x20AC;? said Father

Anyone wanting to donate can contact him at: 613-397-3189, or they can attend any of the two church services which are held 10 a.m. every Thursday and 4 p.m. Saturdays, and make a donation.

Father Barol also conducts services at Holy Angelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Church in Brighton and St. Alphonsus Church, Wooler.

A blessing of the ramp ceremony will be held upon completion.

EMC News - Campbellford For the second year in a row, a concert will be held in town to help orphaned, abandoned and abused children in Africa. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had such great success we decided to do it again this year,â&#x20AC;? said Roxanne Flagler, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organizing the August 24 concert at Old Mill Park to raise money for Mully Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Family.

ing this historic building.

He is spearheading a project on behalf of the approximately 40 families who are members of the congregation, a project that was a year in the making and is close to completion.

The project is an accessibility ramp to the front doors of the church. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We decided to move forward with this project after a long deliberation and initial major donation as a kickoff for the funds from one of the parishioners, actually from a family of parishioners one of whom is disabled,â&#x20AC;? explained Weilandt.

Their â&#x20AC;&#x153;sizableâ&#x20AC;? donation kick-started the project which is estimated to cost $17,000 to $18,000.

The congregation has raised $13,000 to date.

Weilandt created the initial design of the ramp and then a professional structural engineer from Norwood was hired to get the stamp of approval for the drawings so a building permit could be obtained.

Law dictates that a ramp cannot have an incline of more than one inch per linear foot which resulted in the structure being 60 feet in length. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We tried to make it have a minimum impact on the church itself so we tucked it away alongside the building,â&#x20AC;? commented Weilandt.

tion that was founded in 1989

by Charles Mulli, a successful businessman in Kenya who decided to devote his life to getting children off the street and placing them in a home where they receive food, clothing, shelter, medical care, education and skills training that will help make them self-sufficient.

More than 5,000 children have been saved through his efforts, and another 2,000-plus are under

the care of three homes and three community-based centres supported by the organization. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He does amazing work,â&#x20AC;? helping children â&#x20AC;&#x153;become really well-rounded peopleâ&#x20AC;? who â&#x20AC;&#x153;might not have had a chance in life at all,â&#x20AC;? Flagler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was blown away by the incredible faith this man has. All the children have benefitted because of it.â&#x20AC;?

help Mully Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Family by volunteering, raising awareness and generating funds for the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homes and capital projects.

Elaine Gerow, and her husband Doug, of Havelock, are among them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been my inspiration,â&#x20AC;? Flagler said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Elaineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just an incredible person â&#x20AC;Ś sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helped me out in so many ways.â&#x20AC;?

Flagler has been supporting people and worthy causes through her charity, Second Chance Ministries, since 2000 by staging concerts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For example, I went down to Trinidad to sing on tour and while I was there I donated a piano.â&#x20AC;?

She said â&#x20AC;&#x153;a lot of the artists here in the area have agreed

to come and donate their time and energy.â&#x20AC;?

She will be singing with a number of them, including Barbara Robbins, Diane Stanford, and her partner, Phil Smith.

The artistsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;who include Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two children, Lowell and Makeda, Rob Rapino, Dane Campbell, Jana Reid, Jeffrey Holmes, Les Scott (drummer with Candy Mountain, the band Flagler and Robbins sing background vocals for), James Hallett, Dorothy Ann Robbie, Ginny McIlmoyle, Dave Papple, and Larry Sullivanâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;will be performing pop, rock, jazz, folk, country and gospel music.

Over 100 bikes invade the Tweedsmuir Tavern

EMC News - Tweed - There was a lot of rumbling and roaring of motorcycle engines in the village on Sunday, August 4, as the Tweedsmuir Tavern held their annual Show and Shine; over 100 bikes filled the parking lot.

Peter Brown has been organizing the event for over ten years and said he was very pleased with this year’s turnout. There were visitors from as far away as Quebec and a good showing of every category for judges to look at.

“It’s great to see so many people coming and supporting this year’s fund raiser which is for minor hockey. We are very pleased to announce that we contributed close to $400 to Tweed Minor Hockey. Bikes have always been a passion of mine and over the years I have enjoyed the oppor-

tunity to help organize and emcee this event; it nice to rub elbows with fellow biker enthusiasts.”

Ken McKichan, president of minor hockey in Tweed said these monetary contributions will help keep the seasonal cost of hockey down The categories for judging were best custom, best decker, best paint, best sportster, best vintage, best ladies, longest distance and the people’s choice, which was won by Dave Hill.

During the Tweedsmuir Show and Shine, Hal Trites from the Tweed Legion showed up and announced that the Legion will be holding a Poker Run September 15 starting at 10 a.m. This will be followed by a Show and Shine and the Charlie Bird Band will perform at 1:30 that afternoon. This is a charity fund raiser for the Legion.

Tweed Minor Hockey President Ken McKichan and Tweedsmuir owner Lawrence Ramsay are seen here drawing the winning 50/50 ticket number as the winner of the draw netted $125 with the same amount going to minor hockey.

Log cabin homestead holds secrets of its pioneer past

The log cabin in Ameliasburgh Pioneer Village is a keeper of secrets from a long past. Photo: Kate Everson

By Kate Everson

EMC News - Ameliasburgh - A tiny log cabin in the Ameliasburgh Historical Museum and Pioneer Village holds secrets from its past.

Built in 1860 and moved to the museum in 1969, the stone used in the fireplace was from the original root cellar. The nearby smokehouse was used to cure and preserve meat for storage over the long winter months.

Step inside the cabin, but watch your head! These doors were built for smaller people. The hearth fireplace is ready for

cooking a pot of stew in its big black kettle. The wooden table is prepared for baking a pie, getting fresh ingredients from the garden just outside. A spinning wheel in the corner makes clothing for a family.

Take the steep stairs (but, again, watch your head!) and go upstairs to the tiny bedroom. The double bed is soft with straw and a homemade quilt. The tiny cot next to it is for the child. A chair with a hole in it is for going to the potty on a cold, winter night!

You can almost feel a presence in this cabin, that speaks of its many owners and

their own sadness. Mrs. White died of childbirth in this room in 1880. In 1909 the barn was struck by lightning. At least ten owners have claimed the cabin throughout its history, but it wasn’t until 1917 that the George Harris family brought the shouts and laughter of children to the house. The building was donated to the Ameliasburgh museum by its last owner, O’Hara, and it was dismantled, repaired and restored to its original glory.

The log cabin is just one building in the Ameliasburgh Museum and Pioneer Village located on County Road 19. It is open

from May through summer every day except Tuesdays and Wednesdays through to Pioneer Activity Day on September 1 and open again for the Ameliasburgh Country Fair on September 28 and 29.

The museum is home to an operational blacksmith shop, a maple sap shanty, beekeeping buildings, dairy display, carpenter’s shop, Amelia’s tea room (open on special occasions), church building gallery (Wesleyan Methodist Church 1868), pioneer barn, drive shed display, giant turbine, pea viner, tractor barn, corn crib and Goldie Corliss 18-foot flywheel.

Ameliasburgh museum is one of five sites on the Museums of Prince Edward County Memory Trail <www. countymemorytrail.ca> which includes Macaulay Heritage Park in Picton, Mariners Museum in South Bay, Rose House Museum in Waupoos, and the Wellington Heritage Museum.

The Ameliasburgh Museum also celebrates Christmas in the Village on December 7 from 1 to 4 p.m. Contact the museum at 613-968-9678 for more information or call the head curator at 613-476-2148 extension 258 during off-season.

Zombie Zone has 100 people signed up

the runners have to avoid the Zombies. If the Zombies get your flags you are infected with the Zombie virus and you lose!”

What is a Zombie? Connie says she doesn’t actually know. On the day of the race there will be a Zombie make-up tent and Zombie School.

“I expect they will look ripped and dirty, having just crawled out of the ground,” she said. “And they will probably have pretty gruesome make-up. The un-dead.”

Several Zombie fans have already signed up to be Zombies for the event. They have to be over 18 and follow the Zombie rules.

No contact. Just look really, really bad.

There is even a King of the Zombie.

“Only a few participants survive the race,” Connie said. “Those Zombies are good.”

She said the event is really about fun, but some can be quite competitive, especially in the five-kilometre race.

The races start at 10 a.m. for the Zombits, 11 a.m. for the Youth and 1 p.m. for adults five-kilometre run.

“People can register for next year’s race which will be on August 16, 2014,” Connie says. “Registration opens on August 11, 2013.There is a $10 discount for the survivors.”

She adds even the “infected” participants can also get a $5 discount if they register before October 31.

Connie notes that Batawa Ski Hill has been really good partnering with them on this project, co-ordinating through Morgan Casement.

The Quinte West Youth Centre is very busy this summer, Connie adds, with youth participating in various programs. Some are learning how to cook on a barbecue and others are building a garden shed outside the centre. A new program called Youth Link is starting in September with the emphasis on volunteering. For more information contact Connie at 613-392-6946. Check out the Making a garden shed with Ron Weeks are Jordan Keele, Michaela Grier, Zombie web site at <www.quintewestzombiezone2013.webs.com>.

EMC Lifestyles - Quinte West - Over 100 people have already signed up for the first annual Quinte Zombie Zone.

“There is quite a Zombie following in this area,” says Connie Nye-Kaley, manager of the Quinte West Youth Centre on Wooler Road.

“We hope to grow it next year to at least 200.”

She said the event will be held at Batawa Ski Hill on August 10, with entries for miniZombits (up to age nine) sponsored by Tim Hortons, Youth Zombie Zone from nine to 13 for the one-kilometre mud run, and adults for the five-kilometre trail race through zones of Zombies.

“My husband and I participated in a Zombie Zone in Toronto and loved it!” Connie said

with a laugh. “They have them all over the U.S. and Ontario but this is the first one in this area.”

She said the one in Toronto is well established with over 1,000 participants in a day.

Participants pay a fee to enter with all proceeds going to the Quinte West Youth Centre.

Registration has already closed online, but Connie says anyone can sign up on the day of the event if they just want to participate in the five-kilometre run.

“If they sign up on that day they won’t win any prizes or get T-shirts,” she adds. “But they can still have fun.”

Connie notes that the Zombies don’t actually touch anyone. They just grab their flags.

“With the Zombits the children just run to the Zombies who hold things out to them,” she adds. “With the older ones,

Farm Fest will bring together consumers, farmers

By John Campbell

EMC News - Port Hope - The Northumberland Federation of Agriculture and the county have joined forces with the Port Hope Agriculture Society to bridge the awareness gap that exists between urban consumers and farmers.

The organizations, along with the municipalities of Port Hope and Hamilton Township, and the Northumberland Cattlemen’s Association, will stage a free event for the family, Local Farm Fest, August 22 at the Fall Fair Centre in Port Hope’s Town Park Recreation Centre.

“Anyone’s welcome,” said Cam

Davidson, president of the Port Hope fair board.

The event is designed “to educate the urban consumer about local agriculture,” he said.

“People can learn how their food is produced.”

Davidson, a dairy farmer north of Cobourg, said “consumers are interested in food that’s produced locally, but at the same time, “there’s a lot of misconceptions about food” because “a lot of people are two, three generations removed from the farm.”

The event will give members of the public the opportunity to

ask questions about how food is produced by speaking directly to a farmer.

About 25 to 30 areas of farming will be represented, including beef and dairy farmers, and market vegetable growers.

“It’s like a Rural Ramble in one location,” said Davidson, referring the annual event that farmers in the county used to organize, in which people would drive to farms taking part in the tour to learn more about their operations first hand.

There will be a milking demonstration and a clinic on horse care, Davidson said.

TRAVEL

Barcelona’s panoramic city highlights tour with transfer

The unusual architecture of Barcelona’s Cassa Batillo.

By John M. Smith

EMC Lifestyles - I’ve previously written about how my wife and I partook in a Mediterranean cruise that began in Venice, Italy, and ended in Barcelona, Spain. Well, we then had to decide how we were getting from the cruise ship to the airport, for our eventual return to Canada, and we concluded that the best option for us was to simply add the “City Highlights Tour, With Transfer,” to our list of shore excursions.

After disembarking, we simply loaded our luggage onto our designated tour bus, and then our luggage was right with us at the end of the city tour: no fuss; no muss. The bus would take us directly to the airport, after a four-hour tour of the city or to one of the cruise line’s designated hotels for those who pre-booked and reserved a room and decided to delay their departure. This land tour would work only for cruise ship guests with an airline departure after 3:30 p.m. on the day of disembarkation.

This section of old Roman wall is located in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter.

We drove through Barcelona’s scenic port area (Spain’s largest) and along its best known boulevard, Passeig de Gracia, and we saw the Olympic rings from the 1992 Olympics and its towering Olympics cauldron which had been lit back then by shooting a fiery arrow up into it. We also passed by several sports complexes, a statue of Christopher Columbus, the National Palace of Barcelona now an art museum, and the Arenas de Barcelona a large outdoor arena where I witnessed some bull fighting many years ago—before it was banned in Barcelona. We also passed by several of architect Antoni Gaudi’s most intriguing, fascinating works, including Casa Batillo with its eye-popping broken ceramic tiles and Sagrada Familia a mammoth RC church.

This Sagrada Familia, a designated World Heritage Site, was of particular interest to me, for it was begun in 1882 and still isn’t completed! Therefore, several architects have worked on this

project, which has been delayed by such things as wars and its reliance on private donations. When architect Gaudi was alive and working on this church, he would answer questions about the length of time the project was taking by simply stating, “My client is not in a hurry.” Our tour guide suggested that we plan to “return in about 2035” to see the completed work!

Since this city was founded by the Romans about 2,000 years ago, one would expect to find lots of interesting architecture and historic sites here, particularly in the city’s Gothic Quarter, the oldest section. We actually got off the bus and did a walking tour through this area, and this was definitely a highlight. I was especially impressed by the Barcelona Cathedral (Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia), constructed from the 13th to the 15th centuries, and built on the very foundation of an even earlier church which, at that time (back in the 4th century), had faced the then exist-

ing Roman Forum of Barcelona. As I checked out this area, I witnessed some visible “reminders” of this earlier era, including a section of Roman wall. It was interesting, indeed, to see this combination of Roman ruins and medieval buildings now existing side by side!

We also ascended Barcelona’s Montjuic Hill, where a steep cliff provided us with a great view of the harbor and our docked ship. We also found some nice botanical gardens, fountains, and statues on this precipice, and learned that if we weren’t travelling by bus, we could also reach this panoramic lookout point via a funicular railway and a gondola lift.

Instead of going directly to the airport after our city tour, we were among those cruise ship passengers who were taken to a pre-selected hotel; our particular accommodations were at the Hesperia Tower Hotel. This five-star hotel, near the airport, is a member of Great Hotels of the World Luxury Collection,

<www.ghotw.com/hesperia-tower>, and we spent a night at this location before flying back to Canada the following day.

The hotel is away from the city centre, but close to a metro station, so it’s easy to go back and forth, if you wish. We decided to simply stay in that area for the remainder of the day, and we enjoyed our evening meal right there, too. Our room was on the 20th floor of the tower, so we certainly had quite a panoramic view right from our room!

I also liked the free Wi-Fi connection and airport shuttle provided by this hotel. Therefore, we were able to take in the tour of the city and relax our “sea legs” for a day before our return home.

Then we took the complimentary airport shuttle the next morning, and returned to Toronto, via Air Canada, on an 8.5-hour direct flight.

My wife was so relaxed and refreshed from our layover that she spent most of the flight watching movies instead of sleeping. She watched four!

LIFESTYLES

The Good Earth:

Dan Clost EMC Lifestyles - There are two types of geraniums: geraniums and another plant that many people call a geranium.

They stem from the same family (Ellynâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pun) and share many similar traits. In fact, it is easier to mention the most obvious difference between the two and that is the shape of the ďŹ&#x201A;ower. Geraniums (also called cranesbills because of the appearance of the seed capsule and

Vancouver Centennial Pelargonium

its stem) have a ďŹ ve-petal ďŹ&#x201A;ower in which all the petals are the same size.

Pelargoniums (also called storksbills if they originated in the Mediterranean part of the world and heronâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bill if they are native to the Americas, in which case they fall into the genus Erodium) have the same number of petals but the upper two are markedly smaller than the bottom three.

Are you still with me, Gentle Reader?

Really, all I wanted to do was to distinguish between what most of us call a perennial geranium and the pot-ďŹ llers we call annual geraniums. Mind you in the annuals alone, there are about seven or so different groups which include ivy, Royal and Zonal to name three of the more common ones.

All of this just to get to the point of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s column: the Stellar geranium called Vancouver Centennial.

Pelargonium x hortum â&#x20AC;&#x153;Vancouver Centennial,â&#x20AC;? a cultivar in the Stellar series. This is not a dominating plant in

spite of its colourful appearance. The pointedly palmate leaves are mainly brick red or ox-blood red with green edging and creamy white or yellow margins, sort of like pin-striping. The ďŹ&#x201A;owers are bright red, rising above the foliage a few inches. With a mature height and spread of about 12 inches, Vancouver Centennial (VC) needs to be carefully situated in order to achieve its best effects.

In our gardens, I planted it in two distinct settings. One is a patio container sharing space with an ivy geranium, Baltic ivy and some red ďŹ&#x201A;owering wax begonias. The planter is nice to look at because the colours blend and because it is a busy offering with much happening in terms of texture, leaf shapes, and the very different forms. One does have to look closely to separate out the individuals and the VC is almost lost. Next time, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try â&#x20AC;&#x153;smallerâ&#x20AC;? leafed plants such as Helichrysum petiolare (Licorice Plant) or one that has stronger

I wonder if porn will follow the same trajectory, because it has all the same ingredients. People think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cool. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a way to relax! Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s harmless.

And yet, drip by drip, little by little, researchers are starting to realize how destructive it can actually be, both to relationships and to the person using porn him or herself. Porn rewires the brain so that what becomes arousing isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a person; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an image. And pretty soon arousal requires that stimulus.

Being with a live human being isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough anymore.

In fact, sex and relationship counsellor Ian Kerner reports on a new term for thisâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Sexual Attention DeďŹ cit Disorder, or SADD. Consume enough porn, and not only do you ďŹ nd making love with a person boring; often men arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even able to function without the external stimulus.

Pornography actually works in the brain very similarly to the way cocaine doesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;except that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more addictive.

Using porn releases the naturally occurring â&#x20AC;&#x153;pleasureâ&#x20AC;? hormones dopamine, norepinephrine, oxytocin and serotonin in high levels. The dopamine spike in the brain from porn lasts even longer than regular sexâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;even longer than cocaine. So you go from craving a real relationship to craving porn, at an even greater intensity than drug users crave drugs.

And unlike other drugs, which do leave the system, those images are imprinted there. Once you see something, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to get it out. Even if you want to just be romantic and concentrate on your spouse, these pictures ďŹ&#x201A;ood back.

Those pictures give a dangerous message, too: sex is only about the physical, and never about an emotional

Reality Check: EMC Lifestyles - Plane rides as a young child were always ďŹ lled with trepidation for me. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t crashing that I was afraid of. It was being assigned the ďŹ rst row in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;no smokingâ&#x20AC;? sectionâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; meaning that the row right in front of you was lighting up. In the 1970s half the population smoked.

A few decades earlier King George VI was even told to smoke for his health. It would keep him less stressed, and would help his stuttering problem.

Unfortunately, he died in his ďŹ fties of complications from smoking.

It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t too long ago, then, that smoking was considered harmless, and even kings did it. It was cool, it was fun, and it helped you relax! Today if you smoke youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a pariah. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you care about your health?

Smoking was once cool and widespread, but now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in disfavour.

contrasts in petal and ďŹ&#x201A;ower colour such as Euphorbia graminea â&#x20AC;&#x153;Diamond Frost.â&#x20AC;?

The second location for VC is the southwest corner of our front walkway garden, a prominent viewing spot for all visitors coming onto the estate. In this location there is paving brick to the south, asphalt to the west, and the shade retreats until after 6 p.m. VC is not only thriving but is also remarkably showy.

Immediately behind the grouping of three, is a small terra cotta lady beetle peeking into an overturned cast iron urn. Above to the left are the soft azure needles of a globe blue spruce standard, and on the right is the chartreuse green of a Thundercloud Japanese pine.

Behind all of that are the aged red bricks of our century-plus home which brings the colour wheel full circle.

At our annual barbecue, it was the most commonly noted ďŹ&#x201A;ower by our visitors, many of whom soon lost interest in horticulture as the breeze

wafted smoky fragrances their way.

Vancouver Centennial will make a return visit in next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gardens.

Just to ďŹ ll in the geranium listings GR not yet mentioned, we do have Martha Washingtons sharing space with Key Lime heuchera, and some red ďŹ&#x201A;owering Pintos mingling with gazanias and marigolds. Also, seven or so different cranesbills tucked away in the shrub borders. New to us is the Biokovo cranesbill which is rapidly becoming the go-to geranium for local landscapers.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to close this column with an apology to some of our friends. We recently held our annual barbecue and there was a glitch in the emails that went out. We thought there was an unusual number of non-RSVPs but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realise it was a direct result of emails not being received. In church, this past week, conversations showed this to be a fact.

So, friends, I apologise. Next year, fer sure, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re invited.

Is porn the new smoking?

connection. I worry that people are losing the ability to make love, and all theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing is having sex, with porn videos running through their heads the entire time. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not loving someone; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s using someone.

Porn addiction is like any other addiction: eventually your body becomes accustomed to the stimulus, and you need more and more of it to achieve the same high. What started off as just watching women in bikinis can progress to watching violence, rape, and even child porn. Last month Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former deputy education minister, Benjamin Levin, who also worked on Premier Wynnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s transition team, was arrested on seven charges related to child pornography.

This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t something that affects only People who use porn are more likely the â&#x20AC;&#x153;seedy undersideâ&#x20AC;? of our society; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to be unfaithful in marriage; more likely the well-connected and wealthy, too. to start up an online â&#x20AC;&#x153;cyber affairâ&#x20AC;?; more likely to lose their jobs; more likely to go bankrupt; and more likely to become severely depressed. And so perhaps itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no surprise that, as Dr. Jill Manning Keeping the emergency kit in Preparedâ&#x20AC;? web site at <www. testiďŹ ed before the U.S. Senate, porn an accessible location, and in a getprepared.gc.ca>. use is now implicated in 56 per cent of handy carry bag, is advisable, Information on what to do divorces. especially if you were ordered during extended power outages Maybe you really think porn isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that to leave your home during an and in ďŹ&#x201A;ooding situations is also bad.

Sheila Wray Gregoire

People should make time to prepare for an emergency emergency, a good place to start is keeping an extra supply of food in your home. Readyto-eat, non-perishable items such as canned ham, tuna and salmon, energy bars, and dried foods are invaluable when electricity is knocked out and it may be impossible to cook or warm up food. During a power outage, keeping the refrigerator door closed to maintain the temperature inside is advisable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the power comes back on, check to see that food in the fridge is still safe to eat,â&#x20AC;? he notes.

A clean supply of water is also essential in an emergency.

If a power outage occurs, people may want to ďŹ ll as many containers as possible with water to ensure there is a supply on hand. Keeping bottled water at home to use in an emergency is also a good idea, but the water should be rotated and replaced prior to its best-before date. This precaution is very important in the event of a ďŹ&#x201A;ood, when

water from municipal systems or private wells may be contaminated and unsafe to use, he adds.

Another way to prepare for the unexpected is creating an emergency kit that contains short-term essentials such as clothing, bathroom supplies, fold-up blankets, ďŹ&#x201A;ashlights and batteries. An upto-date list of medication and emergency contacts should also be kept on hand.

EMC News - Campbellford - Be ready, whatever the weather. That is the advice of the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge (HKPR) District Health Unit, which is encouraging people to be prepared in the event of an emergency.

Summer can bring its share of extreme weather, including heavy rain, high wind and severe thunderstorms, and that can create havoc if electricity is knocked out to communities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whether a blackout or a severe storm, emergencies can occur suddenly and without notice, so that makes it very important to be prepared and expect the unexpected,â&#x20AC;? says Christopher Beveridge, director of environmental health with the HKPR District Health Unit. In the event of an emergency in a community, it may take emergency workers some time to reach people. That is why families and individuals should be prepared to take care of themselves for a minimum of 72 hours.

Reba, Trace and friends will make it quite a party

By Bill Freeman

EMC Entertainment - Havelock You could go out on a limb and say that the Reba McEntire and Trace Adkins party has already started in Havelock.

It took three years of trying but patience, good will and the right set of circumstances paid off for the Havelock Country Jamboree which welcomes Reba McEntire to its massive new stage Saturday night.

The four-day music party, its 24th, begins August 15 with award-winning Canadian singer and television star Tara Oram taking the stage after an aerial parachute exhibition by the Sky Hawks

and the national anthem by Brandon Scott of the hot Cold Creek Country band.

The Thursday night show, with Small Town Pistols (Amanda and Tyler Wilkinson), Kix Brooks, Charlie Daniels and Colt Harley, will set the pace for this year’s Jamboree which is clearly thrilled to host performances by the likes of Reba, Adkins, Wynonna Judd, Travis Tritt, Kathy Mattea, Gord Bamford and dozens more.

“Our fans are excited that we’ve gone back to our country roots which our show is built on,” says Jamboree marketing and event director Jennifer

Goheen.

“Our mature crowd is loving the lineup and we have some stuff in there for the kids too. It’s well-rounded,” Goheen said.

Friday’s lineup includes up-andcoming young Canadian singer Jess Moskaluke, the legendary Good Brothers, JT Hodges, Grammy award winners Wynonna, Travis Tritt and Canadian stars Ambush.

On Saturday, Peterborough’s Western Avenue starts things off followed by another bright young performer, Jada Dreyer, Bobby Wills, BR549, Josh Thompson, Trace Adkins, Reba

and highly regarded Canadian singer songwriter Dallas Smith.

Trinity opens things up Sunday followed by The Western Swing Authority, Bobby Bare, Grammy winner Kathy Mattea, the Slocan Ramblers and Coup de Ville.

“We’ve got some fun performers,” says Goheen.

Canadian Dallas Smith is carving out a critically acclaimed new career as a country singer after fronting west coast punk band Default and Goheen says the Jamboree is excited to bring him on stage after Reba’s Saturday gig.

Jada Dreyer and Bobby Wills are also

“right on the brink” of stardom.

It’s Kathy Mattea’s first appearance in Havelock and the “audience is very receptive to her coming in,” says Goheen.

“She’s been on our list for a long time. She wasn’t touring for a while and now she’s got new stuff out and is on the road again.”

All in all, the four-day program is nicely balanced, Goheen says.

“We’ve got two big classic guys every day and we’re ending with good Canadian acts and some up-and-coming bands. It’s a nice well-rounded show. I think our best lineup yet.”

Chart-topping singer Trace Adkins will rock the Havelock Country Jamboree’s stage August 17.

Reba McEntire makes her first appearance on the Havelock Country Jamboree’s new stage August 17.

Grammy award winning singer Travis Tritt will keep the party going when he hits the Havelock Country Jamboree’s new stage on August 16.

Massive new jamboree stage ready for stars

By Bill Freeman

EMC Entertainment - Havelock - Double in width, depth and height, the Havelock Country Jamboree’s massive new twin stage is ready to welcome superstars like Reba McEntire, Trace Adkins, Kix Brooks and dozens more to the 24th annual four-day party that starts August 15.

The new permanent stages, built by David Donald Construction of Campbellford and a crew of local labour and suppliers like Havelock Metal, will take a star turn of their own opening up a new world of entertainment possibilities in Havelock.

“It has been a quick year for us especially with the stages,” says Jennifer Goheen, Jamboree marketing and event director.

“We really had to do the change this year with increasing the size of the stage to get people like Trace and Reba,” Goheen said.

The move to modernizing and doubling the

size, while maintaining the unique twin stage concept that’s become a Jamboree signature, has been in the works for a while but 2013 was the right time to initiate the change, she added.

Fans and performers will enjoy what they see: each stage is 60 feet wide and 40 feet deep, with a height of 32 feet to the first beam; between the stages is a 12 foot wide room for sound crews and storage.

The total stage frontage is 132 feet long.

“With the size and the new roof structure we’re able to hang more lighting,” says Goheen.

The stage height will allow performers to hang some of their own screens.

There are changes to sound, lighting and the day video screens as well.

“The whole production,” Goheen said.

Metal Works, an industry leader in sound and production, will be in charge.

“That’s a big switch for us,” Goheen said.

Goheen says the company couldn’t wait to get on site and begin to set things up.

Entertainers demand what the Jamboree can now offer with the stage.

“Acts want that because they want their shows to be the best of what they have to offer technically so we have to be able to provide the platform for that,” says Goheen.

Surprisingly, they didn’t lose much backstage space which is a bonus, she said.

“The way it is set up we can unload and shunt a truck off and bring another one in.”

It was a “big project” and harsh winter weather meant an extended wait for the ground to thaw before work could begin on site.

That put things two-and-a-half-months behind schedule but once crews got to work they were able to make up considerable time and were

wrapping things up two weeks before show-time.

“Dave Donald and his crew have been fantastic to get things done,” said Goheen. “We were running three to four weeks behind but they closed that gap quite quickly.”

Everything was built on site except the prefabricated structure.

“We wanted to keep the same concept and look of the old stages because they were so successful and worked so well with our platform for years. It was really sad to take that down. We all had tears when the bulldozers came in and took the tops off them.”

What they’ve got now is exactly what owner Ed Leslie envisaged.

“It looks like the first drawing [but] to see a picture is one thing; to stand on them you see the vast change in the structure.”

“It’s Always Something”

EMC News - Campbellford The benefits of cannabis as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;legal medicineâ&#x20AC;? will be the focus of a booth at the new Wellness Expo being organized by Jane Fry for this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Campbellford fair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have met all the criteria for the expo and am just waiting to hear back about my application,â&#x20AC;? said Al Graham, a medical marijuana user who is a spokesperson and founder of People Advocating Cannabis Education (P.A.C.E.), â&#x20AC;&#x153;a local grassroots organization.â&#x20AC;?

Suffering from Crohnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease, a chronic (lifelong) illness, he uses cannabis for its medicinal benefits, with a doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prescription. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been taking it for seven years for Crohnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gone the whole time completely painkiller free without oxycontins or percocets,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My focus at the fair will be on education of cannabis and its use for medical purposes â&#x20AC;Ś and its use for commercial or industrial purposes. For example, hemp and cannabis can be made into clothing, creams etc.,â&#x20AC;? he said.

He will have P.A.C.E. brochures on hand to distribute as well as copies of the magazine Treating Yourself both of which are also available online.

The magazine builds awareness, generates interest, educates and provides readers (which include medical marijuana, alternative medicine users, members of the hemp community, their caregivers, professionals in this and related industries) â&#x20AC;&#x153;with conscientious, ethical, and reliable information to assist them with the management of their wide and varied health needs and

provide them with access to safe and reliable products.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have boxes of the magazine to give to people for free,â&#x20AC;? said Graham.

As well he will be providing educational information â&#x20AC;&#x153;about the old [government] program and the new program, about living as a medical user, whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s it like in society now, is its use accepted, are we accepted etc.,â&#x20AC;? he explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be touching on it all in order to bring cannabis medicine into the mainstream more.â&#x20AC;?

He has had a P.A.C.E. booth in Toronto at various venues including the National Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Show and the International Home and Garden Show. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will be the first time P.A.C.E. has done this in a small town Wellness Expo,â&#x20AC;? said Graham, explaining that the criteria included a $50 fee for the booth, providing a door prize and having $1 million liability insurance, something vendors are asked to provide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cannabis as a medical alternative is something people need to learn about because it is an option that they have.â&#x20AC;?

He will also talk about the changes the government is making.

The Honourable Leona Aglukkaq, Minister of Health, announced new regulations last month that will change the way Canadians access marijuana for medical purposes.

According to Health Canada since its introduction in 2001, its Marihuana Medical Access Program (MMAP) has grown exponentially, from under 500 authorized persons to over 30,000 today.

Under the new regulations, production will no longer take

place in homes â&#x20AC;&#x153;and municipal zoning laws will need to be respected, which will further enhance public safety.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;As of September 30, no patients will be allowed to apply for a licence to grow,â&#x20AC;? said Graham. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As well when this new program kicks in all the patients will have to tear down their gardens and destroy anything theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve grown, as of March 31, 2014,â&#x20AC;? he added.

Sea-to-Sea bike tour wheeling through Brighton Poverty Facts

By Ray Yurkowski

EMC News - Brighton - More than 200 cyclists are expected in Brighton next week as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sea-to-Seaâ&#x20AC;? bicycle tour, to raise awareness and funding to fight poverty worldwide, rolls through town.

Billed as the largest crosscontinental bicycle tour ever, this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s journey began on June 24 with a ceremonial dip of their back tires in the Pacific Ocean at Newport Beach, California, and, on August 24, will end with dipping their front tires in the Atlantic at Staten Island, New York City. The cyclists are travelling 6,178 kilometres through the Unites States and Canada with a goal to raise $3 million in support of alleviating poverty locally, nationally and internationally.

This is the second â&#x20AC;&#x153;cycling to end povertyâ&#x20AC;? tour for Brighton cyclist Local cyclists Sara Bakelaar, Pastor Jake Kuipers and Kaitlyn Kuipers pose Kaitlyn Kuipers. for a photo last weekend along the 6,178-kilometre Sea-to-Sea route, in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most people thought I was crazy at Grand Rapids, Michigan first,â&#x20AC;? she said, recalling when she told

friends about her plan to do it again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But when I explained the cause, they understood.â&#x20AC;?

Now a teacher, she sees the effect on children in the classroom every day. Now sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a champion for the cause. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe in the cause,â&#x20AC;? she said, in an interview last week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re raising awareness and the money we raise will go somewhere that will make a difference.â&#x20AC;? About 80 bikers are committed to riding the full distance and each raised a minimum of $10,000 in donations. So far, Kaitlyn has brought in more than $11,500.

Other local participants are Pastor Jake Kuipers (no relation) of Ebenezer Christian Reformed Church in Trenton and Sara Bakelaar of Carrying Place.

Pastor Jake and Saraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brother, Lawrence, rode the previous tour in 2008.

Kaitlyn is pedalling an average of 114 kilometres a day, six days a week, on the same bike she used on the last

Kaitlyn explains how thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sense of community among the cyclists. A support system includes two transport trucks: one full of gear, the other a travelling kitchen, along with a fulltime nurse.

Incredibly, Pastor Jake is still on the tour after he was airlifted to a Colorado medical centre to have two stents implanted in his heart.

While doctors say he has to slow down the pace, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s back and still pedalling.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was able to be discharged within 24 hours of the procedure,â&#x20AC;? he told the Ebenezer congregation in a Facebook post. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m thankful to be rejoined with the Sea-to-Sea group.â&#x20AC;?

The cyclists are set to arrive in Brighton at the Fellowship Christian Reformed Church (204 Main Street) on August 13, where, from noon until 4 p.m., theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be treated to refreshments, snacks and a special ice-cream sundae.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll also be time to meet the cyclists. Then itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s onward to Trenton Christian School (340 Second Dug Hill Road), the designated overnight stop for day two of week eight.

Northumberland shows steady growth through influx of retirees EMC News - Northumberland - Northumberland County was one of only two rural areas in the province to grow in population annually from 1996 to 2012, even though it recorded more deaths than births in each of those years.

The reason for the steady increase, according to the Rural Ontario Institute (ROI), based on census data collected

by Statistics Canada, is that more people moved to Northumberland and Muskoka than moved out.

And they were likely seniors.

The same two non-metro census divisions, Northumberland and Muskoka, saw the number of seniors in their populations grow annually at a rate of increase higher than the average for Ontario, 2.6 per cent, during the 16-year period.

In Northumberland it was 2.9 per cent, with Muskoka right behind at 2.8 per cent, prompting the institute to note in one of its Focus on Rural Ontario fact sheets that the two regions “appear to be attracting retirees,” which “implies an increase in the demand for services for seniors. These services range from specialized medical practitioners and residences for seniors to wheelchairfriendly grocery stores.”

Northumberland also led the province’s 27 non-metro census divisions in having immigrants make up ten per cent of its population (79,640) in 2011, compared to seven per cent on average for the others.

“But, generally speaking, rural Ontario as a whole is not attracting a lot of newcomers to Canada,” said Norman Ragetlie, the institute’s director of policy and stakeholder engagement, and the country needs more immigrants because that’s the only way it’s going to grow by 2030, according to another ROI fact sheet.

Northumberland, like most counties in the province, will see more Ontarians exiting the labour force in the next ten years than those entering it, “so we need new people to move in, and where are the new people going to come from?”

Ragetlie asked.

“If nothing else changes, labour shortages may become a limiting factor on economic success in many non-metro areas,” said Cathy Redden, a Campbellford resident who just completed her second year on ROI”s board of directors Ragetlie said the series of fact sheets being produced by the institute is aimed at “the powers to be [who] need to have a better appreciation and understanding of the trends that are going on in rural Ontario,” which are different from what’s happening generally in the province.

“It’s important to understand that diversity, so that policies that are made at Queen’s Park [and other levels of government] … reflect the different realities of the province.”

Attention should be paid to demographic changes because they will have “all sorts of ripple effects in the community,” Ragetlie said, such as fewer working age people to support seniors, and possibly school closings.

Dan Borowec, Northumberland’s director of economic development, said the institute’s fact sheets are “exceptionally useful” in providing solid research that supports anecdotal evidence of what is taking place in the county.

They also “give us a clearer direction

with council in terms of where we want to go in a strategic fashion or where we want to invest some of our dollars.”

One of its investments has been to create an online immigration portal to attract newcomers to Northumberland The data has always been available through Statistics Canada and other surveys but “it’s usually not packaged in a way you can see specifically what’s happening in rural areas compared to rural areas,” Ragetlie said. “What we’re trying to do is present the information in a way where people can more readily grasp what the trends are.”

“We’re not there to lobby, to push our agenda, we are there as a resource,” The Focus on Rural Ontario fact Redden said. “The information that we have is dead on, it’s accurate and it’s up sheets can be viewed online at <www. ruralontarioinstitute.ca>. to date.”

Cathy Redden joined the Rural Ontario Institute’s board of directors two years ago because she was “looking for something to do other than housework” and she was drawn to the organization because of the work it does. “It was something I was really interested in,” which is to build “a strong, vibrant rural Ontario,” she said, by giving its leaders and organizations “the tools to become better than what they are.” Photo: John Campbell

Hastings waterfront festival will be “bigger, better”

By Bill Freeman

EMC Events - Hastings - With a second evening concert added to the bill and the return of elegantly restored antique boats, the seventh annual Hastings Waterfront Festival will be “bigger and better” than ever with something for every interest, organizers say.

“Every year it’s better,” says Trent Hills Deputy-mayor and Hastings Councillor Bob Crate of the festival which runs August 16 to 18.

Crate, charmed by Jungle Cat World’s sociable 17-year-old ring-tailed lemur Guido, joined NorthumberlandQuinte West MP Rick Norlock, festival chair Erin Farley and other volunteers during a special kickoff morning at the

Hastings Village Marina that featured the announcement of a $5,400 federal Building Communities Through Arts and Heritage grant.

“Because of the money we’ve received over the years it has made a huge difference in the festival,” says Farley. “It’s bigger and better every year and we can promote it so more people know about it.”

“We’re very excited about this year’s festival,” said Farley.

Key this year is the return of the Trent Severn Antique and Classic Boat Association who missed last year because of a 100th anniversary re-enactment in the Muskokas.

Organizers have also added a Saturday

The seventh annual Hastings Waterfront Festival runs August 16-18 and last week NorthumberlandQuinte West MP Rick Norlock presented the waterfront festival committee with a cheque for $5,400 from the federal government’s Building Communities Through Arts and Heritage grant program.

The festival kicks off August 16 with a double header concert with two popular bands, Freddy Vette and the Flames (7 p.m.) and the Black Fly Band (10 p.m.) rocking the waterfront.

The weekend-long silent auction, beer tent and barbecue will also get under way Friday night.

The grant, Norlock said, is to “help celebrate and stimulate” the three-day festival. “We’re just so thrilled to be here,” he said.

The festival is “a great way to build community and attract tourists and expose Hastings [to the rest of the world].”

He conceded that $5,400 was “not a lot of money” but is still part of the federal government’s “commitment to the village of Hastings.

“There is so much good going on [in Hastings]; it’s alive and vibrant,” Norlock said.

“One of the ways in which communities come together is by celebrating events that highlight the uniqueness of our region.”

Saturday’s events also include artisans, crafters and vendors, craft and woodworking demonstrations, a heritage Trent Hills Deputy-mayor and Hastings Councillor Bob Crate was charmed by Guido, Jungle Cat World’s sports display by the Hastings Historical 17-year-old ring-tailed lemur, during a kickoff day for the seventh annual Hastings Waterfront FestiSociety, free pony rides and a petting zoo val which runs from August 16 to 18.
