A fitting 100th birthday for Mr. Norwood By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - It was a one-hundredth birthday celebration few will forget and a ďŹ tting tribute to J.J. Stewart, Mr. Norwood, a “bedrockâ€? member of the township for generations and a stalwart leader of the local and regionwide business community. Over 1,000 people streamed into J.J. Stewart Motors to honour Stewart who was born August 23, 1914. The lineup to shake his hand snaked outside the showroom and seemed to never end. Outside, there was a festive party featuring classic cars, a barbecue, face painting and a bouncy castle. It all started with a birthday breakfast that was a replication of a gathering Stewart and a clutch of friends, including Asphodel-Norwood Mayor Doug Pearcy, enjoy every month. This time the guest list increased 100-fold to match the 100 years. “We have been very close friends over all those years and I’m very proud of that friendship. It’s nice to know people like him,â€? Mayor Pearcy said, recalling his arrival in Norwood in 1969 to

start a business and an early conversation with Stewart. “He said ‘I’ll support you’ and he never let me down,â€? Pearcy. “It’s a pretty important occasion and Jack Stewart has been a supporter of this community; he has done so much for us. I felt I should lead this thing up. It’s just been a wonderful thing, a beautiful thing,â€? he said. Pearcy said Stewart’s “sense of communityâ€? was remarkable. “That’s been his whole life and that’s why everyone calls him Mr. Norwood. He deserves it.â€? The breakfast included scores of Shriners and Masons, local friends and political heavyweights like Peterborough City Mayor Daryl Bennett and County Warden J. Murray Jones. A splendid framed birthday certiďŹ cate and photo from Queen Elizabeth II was also on display. Bennett said Stewart was “admired as the bedrock of the local business community in addition to [his] commitment to the social and cultural wellbeing of the community.â€?

Wisdom teeth, so-called because they are the last teeth to emerge after childhood, usually erupt from ages 16 to 18, when people are considered “wiser� or more mature. Located at the back of the jaw, wisdom teeth are also referred to as the “third molars�. It is often advised that wisdom teeth are removed. Impacted or sideways wisdom teeth can be painful and cause infection as they try to erupt into the mouth. Cysts can sometimes form around impacted wisdom teeth, putting bone and the jaw at risk. Wisdom teeth may also only partially erupt, irritating gums and making proper cleaning difficult.

called Stewart a “cornerstone of the community. “He’s lived 100 years and he hasn’t wasted any days,� Del Mastro said, noting that Stewart still spent time at the office every day. Del Mastro said Stewart has lived his life by “seizing each day, making the most of it and making a contribution.� Things have certainly changed since the days of hand-cranked cars, grist mills, cheese box factories and

cattle wandering into front lawns, Stewart admitted. “Over the last 100 years I have been very fortunate to have met so many good friends,� he said. Many of the people he grew up with have passed

on but the turnout at the Millennium Room and dealership showed that Stewart “still had a lot of good friends.� And as one breakfastgoer noted “a good man has good friends.�

NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETINGS COMMITTEE OF ADJUSTMENT / COUNCIL

NOTICE OF FILING OF SCHEDULE ‘B’ REPORT MUNICIPALITY OF TRENT HILLS Schedule ‘B’ Class Environmental Assessment

CAMPBELLFORD POTABLE WATER SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM UPGRADES The Study The Municipality of Trent Hills (the Municipality) is undertaking a planning process to assess the Campbellford Potable Water Supply and Distribution System for the Campbellford service area (referenced herein as the Campbellford Potable Water System). The Municipality has identified that the community’s water storage tank is in need of interior and exterior rehabilitation, which will require it to be out of service for approximately 8 to 12 weeks, during which time the Campbellford Potable Water System will require provisions to maintain service and reduce risks associated with current treated water storage volumes. This need, coupled with the existing reliability and redundancy of the existing potable water treatment plant, has led the Municipality to consider permanent upgrades to the water system that will not only service the Campbellford community during the standpipe rehabilitation, but also ensure the continued provision of safe drinking water well into the future. Recommended Servicing Alternative Following a Public Information Centre that was held on Wednesday, June 11, 2014, the preferred servicing alternative was confirmed to be the addition of storage capacity and a new high lift pumping station near the existing Water Treatment Plant facility, located at 58 Saskatoon Ave in Campbellford, ON. A Schedule ‘B’ Report has been completed containing details of the proposed upgrades, in addition to potential project scheduling and opinions of probable costs. By this Notice, the Schedule ‘B’ Report is being placed on public record for a thirty (30) day review period in accordance with the requirements of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment process.

Water soldier battle continues in Trent River

By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - The battle against the invasive fast-spreading water soldier continues along a short stretch of the Trent River east of Hastings. Field specialists have wrapped up a monitoring program for the destructive plant which likely made its way into the river as a discarded water garden or aquarium plant and are in the process of devising control measures in an attempt to arrest its spread. The section of the Trent River between County Road 30 near the hamlet of Trent River and County Road 50 has the dubious distinction of being the only known wild population in North America. Water soldier is a perennial aquatic plant native to Europe and northwest Asia. “It’s been there since 2008. We did some monitoring in 2011 when we thought there were 22,000 plants; now it’s just way over that,” says Christine Brennan, a member of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters Invasive Species Outreach team which has partnered with the Ministry of Natural Resources, the Lower Trent Conservation

Authority, the Ministry of Environment and Parks Canada to tackle the problem. “It looks like an aloe plant or the top of a pineapple with bright green sharp serrated edges,” Brennan said. “It just creates these dense mats that nothing can live in. Other plants can’t live in it, you can’t boat through it, and you can’t swim through it.” It was so thick monitoring crews couldn’t canoe through it. “We had to go around the patches,” Brennan said. “What we’re trying to do is figure out some control measures to stop it from spreading through the whole Trent Severn waterway. We were hoping we wouldn’t find it over Healey Falls but it has spread a little bit over.” “Somebody probably released it from an aquarium or garden. That’s how invasive species get here; people buy them, don’t want them and dump their aquariums. It only takes a few plants to create a problem.” It is a major problem and not just for waterfront residents who’ve had their shorelines overrun putting an end to

swimming, boating and fishing. “If it spreads through the entire Trent Severn it will just kill all the species,” says Brennan. “They won’t have room to live or enough food to eat. Aquatic plants will die. There would be no room for fishing [because] boats couldn’t get through. It won’t be useable.” Water soldier covers most of the shoreline between County Roads 30 and 50 because it “really only likes depths of up to five metres. “Anything more than that it doesn’t really grow in but it has buoyant leaves so in the summer it sticks up when new leaves and new growth come in,” Brenna explained. In the winter the plants get “waterlogged and sink down in the water” but survive because they’re “cold tolerant.” Along with finding controls, the team also wants the general public to know more about water soldier and invasive species. “A lot of people really don’t know about it. The people who are really concerned live on the Trent. It’s taking over.” “The biggest thing you can do is

County Council tackling rural issues and challenges at

Association of Municipalities of Ontario Conference Some Peterborough County Councillors recently attended the AMO (Association of Municipalities of Ontario) Conference in London, Ontario. AMO is an association that represents the interests of Ontario municipalities. This annual event allows an opportunity for us to make delegations to provincial ministries on issues and topics that affect municipal government and the local taxpayer. It also provides our municipal leaders the opportunity to learn about municipal best practices, changing legislation and garner further education on a myriad of topics, This year, County Councillors and staff spoke to the Ministry of Economic Development, Employment and Infrastructure regarding the budget announcement of long term, sustainable funding for infrastructure, something we have been requesting for years. The County of Peterborough is very excited about the next round of the Provincial/Federal Build Canada program. We were not fortunate to have our project applications selected in the previous two rounds but look forward to applying for the upcoming round. With over $150 million of road and bridge infrastructure needs, we are in a desperate position for funding assistance and valued the opportunity to discuss our concerns related to the criteria that the ministry will establish for selecting the successful municipal projects. Roads are our life lines – moving people and commodities back and forth. Did you know that the cost to repair one km. of road in rural Ontario is shared by just five homes, while in urban areas in Ontario, that cost is shared by an average 25 homes. The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care delegation included a discussion around current case mix formula and cut backs to long term care funding. We are requesting a review of the present formula to avoid anticipated deficits at present funding levels. We also met with Peterborough MPP & Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs to discuss future plans for a Peterborough County Agricultural Hall of Fame facility as well as to discuss the new Local Food Act and the recent positive budget investment in agricultural and food processing sectors. Through venues such as AMO, the County is able to access provincial and federal political leaders to bring forward concerns and issues specific to our County. Past opportunities such as these have brought forward changes to legislation and funding to our region. We not only work to bring issues forward, but to propose solutions that would benefit our rural areas. Our tag line this year for the Eastern Ontario Wardens’ Caucus is #Partners4Progress. We hope that our work these few days has brought forward ideas and solutions to our Provincial leaders, as we continue to work to improve life in rural Ontario.

Unimin “evaluates” modernization plan for Blue Mountain operation By Bill Freeman

Christine Brennan, a member of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters and Lower Trent Conservation Authority’s Invasive Species Outreach team, has been helping to monitor the invasive water soldier which has infested a section of the Trent River near the hamlet of Trent River.

News - Havelock - Unimin Canada says it is in the “evaluation stage” of a modernization plan for its mining operations in the area that would lead to a four- to six-year plan to modernize its Canadian Nepheline operation at Blue Mountain and the “anticipated” closure of its nearby Nephton plant. “We anticipate a long process ahead that includes planning, internal approvals, consultation, permitting and construction over the next four to six years,” says regional general manager Carl Horvat. “Between now and then Unimin will continue to work proactively with its unions.” The company, with around 200 employees at the plants, says the implementation of the “proposed modernization” will reduce Unimin’s “overall environmental footprint and make its Canadian Nepheline operations more sustainable.” Included in the plan will be the use of “state-of-the-art noise reduction technology,” reduced energy consumption and water usage. Horvat says once the modernization plans are approved and implemented Unimin will be in a position to “better serve our customers and remain a leader in a very competitive marketplace while we continue to be a good neighbour to the communities in which we operate.” The company met last week with Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Mayor Ron Gerow and Peterborough County Warden J. Murray Jones to discuss their modernization plans.

The township is excited to hear that Unimin is planning to modernize its plant to reduce the overall environmental footprint to make its operation more environmentally friendly and sustainable, says Gerow. “Unimin is a valuable member of our community. We are pleased that they have the confidence in our municipality for long-term investment,” he said. “The plan will make Unimin a sustainable operation for the global market.” Canadian nepheline is processed without toxic chemicals making the process environmentally friendly, says sustainability communications manager Todd Kramasz. Its characteristics make it the “ideal building block” for many household and industrial products “common to everyday life” including plastics, fibreglass and ceramic. It is an “integral component” in paint because it “adds durability while helping manufacturers reduce the use of volatile organic components.” Nepheline is used in the manufacture of glass bottles because it allows for “improved strength and clarity.” The modernization plan “will ensure Unimin’s dedication to the area in the near future,” Kramasz added. “Unimin will provide updates on the plan as various milestones are reached,” he added. Unimin Corporation is part of the Sibelco Group, one of North America’s leading producers and distributors of non-metallic industrial materials. Its products are the “essential raw materials for every manufacturing process.”


Mayoral race heats up By John Campbell

News - Trent Hills - The race to become mayor of Trent Hills for the next four years is proving quite challenging for the three candidates. Incumbent Hector Macmillan challenged his two rivals, Jim Peeling and Dwight Boyd, to take part in two debates he had arranged where they would go at it head-to-head-to-head. They refused. Then Peeling issued a challenge of his own: take part in the Ice Bucket Challenge that has spread like wildfire around the globe raising money for research to combat Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Peeling got the ball rolling by having his son-in-law and grandson pour water and ice over his head Sunday afternoon and he dared his opponents to perform the same stunt for charity, while matching his donation of $100 to the ALS Society. They accepted. Sort of. And while the gauntlet was be-

ing tossed down more than once, a lot of words ended up being tossed about like “chicken” and “bully,” making plain the campaign is turning nasty. Why didn’t Boyd and Peeling accept Macmillan’s invitation? “I’m not going to let him dictate to me,” Peeling said. “I’m happy to debate him any time but, rightly or wrongly, I just think he’s trying to pull the strings … he’s trying to bully his way.” Boyd was equally put off being “summon[ed]” by the mayor to take part in an exercise where he sets the rules and chooses the moderator, Belleville Mayor Neil Ellis. “I’m not prepared to participate in one of his dog-and-pony shows,” Boyd said. Both men pointed out there are three all-candidates meetings and a mayoral debate already scheduled that have been organized by community organizations, including the Chamber of Commerce, which they will attend.

“I’m looking forward to debating him on those four occasions,” Boyd said. If the mayor feels the need to rebut claims by his opponents he says are unfounded, “he’s got four chances to do that,” Peeling said. Macmillan said his rivals were “being chicken turning down the opportunity to engage the public.” He still intends to go ahead in their absence with the two dates he scheduled. The first will take place at the Campbellford Legion September 10 when he will make “a public presentation” and then answer questions from the floor as well as listen to what residents’ “burning concerns” are. “I had it in my mind all along that if they didn’t want to accept my invitation that I still wanted to engage the public directly anyway.” Macmillan lamented his opponents will “continue to spread

misinformation … [when] this was an opportunity to clear that up early in the campaign.” As for the Ice Bucket Challenge, Boyd joked that if he “could get out of it by paying a hundred bucks,” he will. But “if I can raise a goodly amount of money, then I’ll take the dunking,” he said. Macmillan said he has already been challenged by others in the community and it’s their challenges that he intends to accept. “I’m just looking for some innovative way to do it,” he said, the way others have done. Macmillan later added he was “upping the ante to $300 each donating to ALS” in response to a challenge from Rick English, who’s running for council in Ward 2. “It’s for ALS [amyotrophic lateral sclerosis]; it’s really got nothing to do with politics,” Peeling said. “I just happened to challenge the other two guys who are running for mayor, that’s all.”

Fire at apartment building in Campbellford News - Campbellford - Firefighters were called to an apartment building on Isabella Street Monday morning to put out a fire. One of the occupants, a male, was taken to Campbellford Memorial Hospital across the street for medical attention. The Ontario Fire Marshal’s Office was called in to investigate. An OPP media relations officer said a news release would be issued but no details had been given out as of early Tuesday morning before press time. “The scene is being held” and an investigation by Northumberland OPP and the

A Campbellford resident was on his way to the hospital for an appointment when he and his mother spotted “white smoke billowing out” of the apartment building around 11:15 a.m. “Mum, she decided to run in and take a look and see

within “a couple of minutes.” The man said there was a woman downstairs who got out on her own and there was a man upstairs who firefighters helped out. “He seems to be okay,” the man said. Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake deferred all questions to the OPP.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor, The beheading of a journalist in the Middle East has raised a lot of strong words from a number of world leaders calling the action “barbaric” among other descriptions. It should be noted here that Saudi Arabia in the first three weeks of the same month executed 19 prisoners by the same method, none of whom had killed anyone. The Saudis are

Pot calling the kettle “barbaric”

considered friends since they buy an awful lot of high-tech expensive weapons from the North American industrial complex. They also still use the dollar as a reserve currency and for payment in oil transactions and allow U.S. bases on their soil.

the murder of Mr. Foley. Which brings us full circle. So back to what is considered barbaric: how about a guy sitting at a desk in Virginia pressing a button and sending hellfire missiles into a building in Pakistan etc., which has a possible enemy of the USA inside, along with several family members who should know better than to hang with this guy. The result is politely termed “bug splat” and when neighbours do what you might expect, rush to help any wounded out of the rubble, a second hit adds to the toll. A short time later a funeral procession may also be hit. Is this barbaric? Beheading was reserved for the gentry when Henry was king of England, riff raff were simply hung on the gallows at Tyburn. The French perfected the art with

a machine allowing large numbers of victims to be “processed” in a single day. In the last decade, the U.S. has brought civilization toAfghanistan, Iraq, and through its proxy the UN, Libya and Syria. Let’s be clear here, this has nothing to do with oil. The U.S. also provides the means to prop up a junta in Egypt. Let’s not forget another overthrow of a democratically elected government in Haiti, for the third time. Oh yes, they were “elected” afterwards but only with a total ban on the popular opposition taking part. Looking homeward, the growth industry Homeland Security keeps track of all emails, text messages, phone calls and monitors web sites visited (25,000 of the security industry’s one million employees had their accounts hacked today).

In some states 45 per cent of Americans now live in poverty. Infrastructure corrodes, cities declare bankruptcy, 50 per cent of all personal bankruptcies in the USA are the result of medical bills. Yet a new generation of nuclear weapons and delivery systems are in the works, BMW cars are flying off the shelves and a vehicle I had no idea was still made “Bentley” had its best year ever. Children trying to escape the failed war on drugs are to be deported back to chaotic violence in Latin America. Land and water aquifers are being sacrificed in the greed for energy profits. Is this barbaric? In Gaza destruction is colossal, lives are lost as Hamas lobs its puny rockets over the wall rather than give up, while Israel bombs at will. Tanks and warships fire into the largest prison in the world.

There are no bomb shelters. The civilians huddled in UN camps in schools and hospitals are still killed and maimed. Is this barbarism? How much of this is our accepted culture? On the occasion when I pass the TV, it is not unusual to see extreme gratuitous violence as part of the movie formula. The African Queen would never have been made today, two people in a boat for near two hours with not even a breast showing. Growing up in the UK in the 1940s and 1950s, some words were considered too coarse for prime time, belly button and bum spring to mind. Look up Flanders and Swan. Having two children, I am familiar with the aforementioned parts now. Paul Whittaker, Gilmour

Most Israelis are not Semites

Dear Editor, The term anti-Semite has been discussed by a couple of writers in your paper recently. It is really a misleading term used against those who criticize Israel. Well, you can criticize the U.S., Argentina and Sweden without being called names, so why not Israel? And who is a Semite? Semites are the descendants of Shem, whose descendant is Abraham, the seed of Hebrews and Arabs according to the Bible. So Arabs, including Palestinians are Semites. The Jews, who can trace their origin to the Middle East

are Sephardic Jews; they have lived among the Arabs in the Middle East and North Africa. In appearance they are similar to other peoples in the Middle East and North Africa. There is a contingent in Iran, where they are guaranteed representation in parliament as are other minorities. Most of the people who live in Israel today are not Semites. When religions were decided on in about the year 800, most of Europe went Catholic. Most of Russia and Serbia adopted Orthodox Christianity, represented by a Pope in Byzantium, which later became Tzargrad, then

Constantinople and now Istanbul. I believe the Russian Orthodox church is now separate from the Greek church. A Russian tribe, the ksazars, that lived in the area north and east of the Black Sea choose to adopt Judaism and invited rabbis to teach them the religion. They are white in appearance. Most of the people in Israel and most of those who practice Judaism today are from this tribe. They cannot trace their origin to biblical Israel and they are not Semites. Peter Simonsen, Hastings

Triage works at Campbellford hospital Dear Editor, On Sunday, August 20, I had the misfortune to have to make a visit to the CMH Emergency Room. I was in a great deal of pain. I am sure it showed. The triage nurse did the standard test and asked questions on my condition. She at once ushered me to a treatment room. Within 20 minutes, Dr. Macklen came to see me. He advised as to what he thought my problem was. He ordered an IV for my pain

and stated blood work would be done as well. This was all done within the next 20 minutes. He also sent me for an x-ray which confirmed his diagnosis. He arranged for a CT scan which was completed on Tuesday, August 22, to get a clearer view of the problem. Dr. Macklen called me at home on Friday morning, August 25, to let me know the exact cause of my pain. I was then referred to a specialist for treatment.

I was at the hospital for no more than four hours. The point I am trying to make here is people have to understand the meaning of triage. It means the serious cases are dealt with first with no exception. I am proof this works. Thank you Dr. Macklen and staff. Murray Hamelin Hastings

OPINION

The United States of Tatooine

Editorial - “Tatooine” is, you will surely agree, a pretty stupid name for a planet, but there are so many Star Wars fans that some unfortunate world is bound to end up being called exactly that. Let’s just hope that its inhabitants, if there are any, never find out. On the whole, though, giving Gwynne Dyer more user-friendly names to newly found planets orbiting other stars is a good idea. There is, for example, a potentially habitable “exoplanet” only 16 light years from here that is currently known only as Gliese 832c. As any real estate agent could tell you, it would attract a lot more attention if you renamed it “Nirvana.” There are gazillions of stars, and only around 300 have proper names (Antares, Procyon, Sirius) in any language. Some of the other bright ones are named after the constellation they are in, with a Greek letter or a number to indicate which one they are (Alpha Centauri, 61 Cygni). But most are just a number in a star catalogue. Jerome Lalande’s, published in 1801, had 47,390 stars, Henry Draper’s, published in 1918, listed 225,300. Gliese 832 was named in a list of 3,803 “nearby” stars (up to 72 light years away) first published by Wilhelm Gliese in 1957, and updated several times since. The “c” was added when Gliese 832 was discovered to have planets two months ago. All very sensible and orderly, but not very romantic. So the International Astronomical Union called in the consultants, and the result was (pause for trumpet flourish) a competition!! The NameExoWorlds contest, announced last year, will give the global public an opportunity to give more exciting or at least more memorable names to about 300 planets circling other stars. Starting next month, a site will open on which astronomy clubs and other non-profit organisations can register with the IAU, and in October they will be asked to pick 25 or 30 of these planets for the first round of naming. Starting in December, these clubs and organisations can propose names for the planets and their host stars (only one planet per group), and in March the general public can rank the proposals in an online vote. They’re expecting more than a million votes. The winning names will be announced at the IAU General Assembly in Honolulu a year from now—and Tatooine will certainly be one of the winners, provided that George Lucas gives his permission. (There might be a copyright issue.) But Vulcan will not be one of the names (sorry, Trekkies) because he was a Roman god, and

names of religious figures aren’t allowed. The IAU’s naming rules are the most interesting part of the exercise. Names may not be longer than 16 characters, they should only be one word, and they must be pronounceable in some known language (though not necessarily yours). They shouldn’t be rude, they must not be of a commercial nature, and the names of pets are not acceptable. Most important, they cannot be the names of living individuals, nor the names of individuals, places or events principally known for political, military or religious activities. Which would have caused a lot of problems if the rule had already been in force during the last big round of naming places. Imagine that the IAU’s rule had been in force in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, when European sailors and settlers were sprinkling names on all the “new lands” in the Americas and Australasia. No New England, no Melbourne, and certainly no El Salvador. No Sao Paulo, no Los Angeles, and no Sydney. The southernmost Australians dealt with the problem in 1856 by changing their island’s name from Van Diemen’s Land (he was a former governor of the Dutch East Indies) to Tasmania (Abel Tasman was simply an explorer, and safely dead by then). But New Zealand would not pass muster on the word count, and New South Wales is simply ridiculous. Waterloo in Canada will have to go, as will Washington (both the city and the state) in the United States, and they’ll have to do something about Bolivia too. But the biggest problem will be what to do about the Americas: two entire continents called after an individual who was still alive when they were named. Amerigo Vespucci, originally from Florence, moved to Spain in 1492 and subsequently became involved in organising various voyages of exploration to the “New World” for the kings of both Spain and Portugal. In 1507 he was credited by the German geographer Martin Waldseemuller with discovering that these lands were not part of Asia, as Columbus had originally believed, but a huge separate land mass between Europe and Asia. On his world map of that same year, therefore, Waldseemuller named that land mass “America,” after the Latin version (Americus) of Vespucci’s first name. But Amerigo Vespucci was still alive—he didn’t die until 1512. The name caught on, as it happened, but Waldseemuller broke the IAU rules. It’s never too late to fix a mistake, but what shall we call the place instead? I know. How about the continents of North Tatooine and South Tatooine? And, of course, the United States of Tatooine.

Sometimes things are black and white By Terry Bush Editorial - It’s funny sometimes, the ideas that stick in your head. While watching Humphrey Bogart in The Maltese Falcon the other night, right away I thought about my grandmother. Not that she looked like Bogey in any way, he was skinny and she was “fleshy” as she used to say, but The Maltese Falcon was filmed in the 1940s and for some crazy reason, memories of my grandmother are well rooted in the black and white era as well. When I look at old family photos, the bulk of them aren’t in colour and the ones that are have a bit of a psychedelic 1960s feel to them mainly due to the shifting of colours. The majority of the shots of my grandmother and grandfather are in black and white and even when I photographed my grandmother while I was taking courses at Loyalist, they were always done in shades of grey as well. Memories of my grandfather usually include him working around the farm at the end of our road wearing dark colours in the snow going in and out of a grey wooden barn feeding the young cattle (Holsteins of course). As kids, we’d go to my grandparents’ house to watch television on Saturdays because they had a working antenna and we’d often stay until close to 4 p.m. watching Abbott and Costello, The Mummy or one of the many Frankenstein movies. When I see movies from the ’20s and ’30s, I wonder what it was like to live in the era of Spanky and Our Gang like my grandparents did. A simpler time for sure and perhaps a better time as well. Things were much more black and white back then and most people knew the difference between right and wrong. If your neighbour was in trouble, you automatically helped out. That was the way farmers and neighbours did things back in the day. My grandparents have been gone for a long time now but their community-minded farming spirit lives on. People ask why I try to get to the Hastings County Plowing Match every year and it’s sometimes hard to explain. It’s been probably 35 years since I hooked a plow to a tractor or cultivated a field but that really has no bearing on anything. I go to the Plowing Match because it feels like a giant get together and that’s exactly what it is; a big old shindig put together by farmers for farmers with a few city slickers thrown in for good measure. It’s a place where you run into people you don’t usually see throughout the busy year, but wish you did.

This year after looking at the sky one too many times on Wednesday morning, I finally got into the truck and headed to the show. I was barely out of the door when I ran into someone I knew. By the time I made it to the entrance gate, I’d already had a half dozen conversations. As soon as I passed through the gate, I saw one of the hosts, Larry Forestell, talking to a group of people. Without missing a beat, Larry looked my way, smiled and said hello and went back to his conversation. School bus buddies from way back. From then on it was walk ten steps, run into another farmer you know. Walk another ten steps and someone would yell out, “Hey Bushy, are you being snobby today?” and I’d stop again. Politics was on everyone’s minds both municipal and federal, so a few group discussions were in order. It was the perfect place to play devil’s advocate too by mentioning now and then that I have no particular use for Stephen Harper. Farmers as a rule, especially older ones, are Tory blue through and through, so a bit of teasing is always good for a laugh. I never mention the fact that I agreed with some of Mike Harris’ policies and have voted for every political party at one time or another because that wouldn’t spark a discussion in a somewhat partisan crowd. With three hours of walking under my belt, I had travelled down a total of three streets at the match before it started to get a little damp. In that period of time, I had probably spoken to close to 60 people and enjoyed every minute of it. I almost thought I was going to miss the one person I seem to run into at every plowing match but as I turned to head home, he crossed right in front of me. With smiles on both our faces, Ron Hadley and I stood in the rain for 20 minutes catching up for another year and ended up both saying the same old thing, see you next year. Hadley is a name most older Hastings County farmers know well. While this farmer’s kid didn’t have a farming career in the cards because of allergies and asthma, I sure didn’t feel out of place walking through the ultimate farming show. It was old home week once again and the whole place had a feeling of community that’s hard to come by these days; one that harkens back to a time when you knew and cared about your neighbours. My grandparents would have been proud to see things haven’t completely changed in the farming community. Farmers still rock.

Local country cover band RufBukl will perform at the Warkworth Fair By Sue Dickens

News - Warkworth - The band RufBukl has got it covered—country cover(ed)— that is. These local musicians have made a name for themselves and their popularity is a well-known fact in these parts of rural Ontario. Folks will be able to hear them perform on stage at the Warkworth Fair. “We do country covers, everything from rock and roll to classic rock and new rock. We’re a cover band,” said Matt Peloquin, drummer and lead vocalist, from Warkworth. The others in the band include Steve Elliott, lead guitar, from Cobourg; Greg “Hop” McEwan, rhythm guitar and lead vocalist, also from Warkworth; Dirk van der Sleen, bass guitar, from Ajax; Bruce Brown, special percussions, Warkworth; and the newest addition to the group, Cindy McCredie, who plays banjo, acoustic guitar, and does vocals, from Trent River. “RufBukl [rough buckle] was formed over three years ago in the tack room of my horse barn in rural Warkworth,” Peloquin told The Trent Hills Independent. “It was the only space

we could find to rehearse at the time. Our first show was at the Norwood fair, where just Hop, Bruce and myself played. Dirk then joined the band to add the bass we needed so badly. Steve joined two years ago when we realized a lead guitarist was in need to round out our sound,” he added. “Cindy is our newest member. She’s been with us for a year and a half. Her talents on the banjo and vocals have brought RufBukl to a whole new level.” The band played recently at Ribfest in Cobourg, a venue they have going to since the group began. It’s their love of music that brought them together and keeps them together. The members of the band have day jobs while they continue to play their music at local fairs, bars, pubs and arenas, wherever they can. This will be their first appearance at the Warkworth Fair and they are looking forward to the gig. Peloquin works for Allen Insurance while van der Sleen and “Hop” are both retired. Elliott is a truck driver out of Cobourg and McCredie is a teacher in Havelock while Brown works at Precision Wood Products, a pallet factory in Campbellford.

“Of course anyone who knows Bruce Brown, knows Warkworth and RufBukl. His commitment to the band is second to none and he is our biggest promoter,” Peloquin commented. “He volunteers his time to most, if not all the events in the Warkworth community [Fair Board, Long Lunch, Rodeo, Maple Syrup Festival etc.] and can be found chatting with the local business owners on a daily basis, offering to help out in any way he can. A lifelong resident of Warkworth and an upstanding citizen,” he added. “People have seen us everywhere from Belleville to Havelock, all through Northumberland County,” said Peloquin. “And we always have a lot of

fun. We get along really well. All our spouses know each other and we’ve become close friends attending each other’s functions from birthdays to weddings,” he added. For the band, performing at the Warkworth Fair, “is a big deal.” “We’re strong supporters of our community, all of us, and this gives us the chance to be part of this popular annual event.” RufBukl will be appearing on stage on Saturday, September 6, at 2 p.m. RufBukl can be found on YouTube and Facebook or to book the band call 905-396-8492.

News - Warkworth - Baking, sewing, knitting, crafts and quilting are some of the categories that bring exhibitors together to participate in the Warkworth Fair. Dedicated to showcasing agriculture, the community

of Warkworth and Percy Township area through celebration, education and participation, the fair is all about family and the focus of the Percy Agricultural Society’s fair. The Homecrafts are a major attraction to not only

exhibitors but fair-goers too. “It’s a way for people to show off their handicrafts at a friendly competition,” said Janet Torrance, chair of the event. She has been doing this for about five years and talked with The Trent Hills Independent about what is new this year. She looks after the adult division of the Homecraft section. Apparently Wendy Mahoney is the one to beat when it comes to baking. “She usually wins the most points in the Homecraft section. She does a lot of baking,” said Torrance. “We have a new novice division for ages 16 to 19 years, in our adult division,” she noted. “It’s a special section for young people so they won’t have to compete against more experienced exhibitors,” she explained. Photography and art are also included in the Homecraft section. The goal is to bring more young people into the fair and have them start exhibiting. “It’s a way of highlighting their talents and handicrafts and showing what they’ve got … that’s kind of what the fair is all about,” said Torrance. She noted there are close to 60 exhibitors that enter each year. “We get a real mix of people, all ages but we need to encourage the younger ones to get involved,” she commented. For Torrance it’s all about “seeing the tradition of the fair carried on.” Another dedicated volunteer with the fair board is Tracy Russell, the secretary, but she also looks after the junior section of the Homecraft competition, for young people age 15

and under. “The youngest exhibitor is usually about three years old,” said Russell, with a grin. In fact her daughter Jessica, who is now 18, started exhibiting at the fair at the age of four. “When she first entered she won overall and she’s been entering the fair ever since,” said Russell. Of course now her daughter enters in the adult division categories. Russell also believes it is important to get youngsters involved so they will continue to keep the fair going. “The kids enjoy it even though it’s a little bit of work ahead of time. At fair time they can come and see how they did with their entries and hopefully they will have earned some prize money too,” she commented. “You have to start them young to keep them entering. “If they didn’t the fair wouldn’t be successful and hopefully they will continue to enter exhibits as adults,” she added. “If they are entering they are participating; they keep the fair growing.” A new category to encourage youngsters is the Abundance Project, a vegetable growing contest in which students at Percy Centennial Public School are participating. First prize is $10. This year there will be an entry fee of $8 per exhibitor, which will get them into the fair with a one-day pass. Exhibitors can bring their entries to the arena at the fairgrounds Thursday, September 4, from 6 to 8:30 p.m. or Friday, September 5, from 8 a.m. to noon.

Cancer survivor encourages support for the Trent Hills Relay for Life News - Campbellford - Cancer survivor Earline Armstrong will be participating in the survivor walk this year at the Trent Hills Relay for Life fund raiser here in Campbellford. She has participated in the past as a member of the Warkworth Community Service Club team and is a big supporter of the event. It was back in 1988 that her cancer was discovered, after a biopsy was done. “I have had needles in before in my breast to drain and it was nothing. This time blood came out and my doctor told me he didn’t like that so a biopsy was done ‌ it was cancer,â€? she told the Trent Hills Independent. The impact of the statement that she had cancer hit her hard. “It was a shock,â€? she said remembering the day she was told she had the disease. She was 47 years old at the time. “So they operated and took the right breast off ‌ they said they got it all,â€? she said. Because she was born with only one kidney she was sent to a specialist in Oshawa. “The doctor put me through numerous tests to see that there was no cancer in the bowel. He said there was none but since I had only one kidney he wanted me to go through six months of chemotherapy,â€? she explained.

“I did and that was the hardest six months of my life,â€? she said as she talked about how the drug made her sick to her stomach and she lost all her hair. “That was pretty hard to take so I wore a wig ‌ but on hot days I didn’t wear one,â€? she added grinning, her courage and sense of humour shining through. The good news is the cancer has not returned. Armstrong came away from her experience with some advice for others who might be going through the same frightening time. “Listen to what the doctor tells you. Get checked, get a mammogram and do a self exam. I know a lot of women don’t like the mammogram; it’s uncomfortable but a lot better than having to go through chemotherapy,â€? she said. So Armstrong continues to show her support for the Cancer Society and the work it does by participating in various fund-raising events. “I’ve been to Cobourg and done the relay there and been to Peterborough and done the relay there too,â€? she said. Her participation in the Trent Hills Relay for Life is well known. Her other bit of advice to folks who read this is, “support the Relay for Life.â€? The goal this year is $99,500 and to date $20,183.79 has been raised. The relay takes place at the fairgrounds in Campbellford on Friday, September 5,

HBM will develop its own tower siting protocol News - Havelock - Township council has given the go-ahead to staff to develop a made in Havelock-BelmontMethuen protocol for the siting of telecommunication towers and antennas. “I think we need a process of our own and follow the ones that are already out there,� said Councillor Jim Martin. Municipalities have only recently been given the authority to seek input from residents on tower siting and have in the past relied entirely on the protocol set out by Industry Canada which still remains the final decisionmaking authority in the application process. Currently, Rogers Communications has applied for two locations in the township; one is for a 106-metrehigh tower at 62 Bowen Road which council disapproves or, the other one, which council has endorsed, is for a smaller tower at the West Kosh transfer station. “I think we need a policy of our own, a consistent policy,� Mayor Ron Gerow agreed. “Radio tower communication systems, including supporting towers, are a matter of exclusive federal jurisdiction,� HBM CAO Pat Kemp

noted. The final decision rests with Industry Canada which has developed a protocol that municipalities have followed in the past. “Although it is a matter of federal jurisdiction Industry Canada has procedures in place to address reasonable and relevant concerns of the local land use authority,� Kemp said. “The main object is to facilitate and open a transparent process that allows local input into antenna siting decisions.� That being said, Kemp noted that the Federation of Canadian Municipalities and the Canadian

Wireless Telecommunications Association have developed a “template� that allows municipalities to develop their own “customized procedures.� “Municipalities have the authority to develop [a] telecommunication tower-antenna facilities protocol if they don’t want to rely on [the] Industry Canada process,� she said. Both Selwyn Township and CavanMonaghan Township have adopted their own protocol and Kemp says they can use those two policy examples when drafted one for HBM. “I agree. I think we need a voice,� Councillor Larry Ellis added.

Big things ahead for Cold Creek County By Bill Freeman

Entertainment - Hastings There are big things ahead for popular local band Cold Creek County. Coming off a powerhouse set at the Havelock Country Jamboree where they opened for Alan Jackson and wowed the Friday afternoon crowd, Cold Creek County is headed back into the studio to finish off an album that will open up whole new musical worlds. “There’s all sorts of big things coming out about this group. It’s all kind of hush-hush right now but great things are coming,” says founder and lead singer Brandon Scott of Brighton. Scott, a former Havelock Country Showdown runner-up, has teamed up with My Darkest Days drummer Doug Oliver of Hastings with the band solidifying around Trevor MacLeod of Stratford, who also played guitar for MDD, and brothers Josh and Justin Lester of Trenton. They deliver a powerful, dynamic sound that’s already captured a sizeable fan base. Playing the Jamboree was

a highlight and they feel privileged to have received the invitation. “It was mind-boggling. It was a lot of fun,” Scott said. “I’ve been coming to the Jamboree for years so to finally get on that stage was a lifetime dream come true.” Canadian country superstar Johnny Reid felt the same way after camping out at the Jamboree as a fan and years later headlining two evening shows. The band in its present form has been together for about a year building momentum along the way while laying down tracks for an album. Five songs are done. “It’s been going sky-high. It’s been great,” says Scott. “Every show we pick up a few more fans and we just love the response we’ve been getting. Everywhere we go we seem to pick up people and they love what we’re doing and we love having them on board. We’re really outgoing guys and we love to talk and meet everybody and let people know we’re around.” Cold Creek County blends

The Trent Hills Regional News published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!

country and rock in a way that works well. “It’s our roots,” says Scott. “We grew up with rock and country and we put it together and that’s coming out now.” “We sat in the studio all win-

ter long and got the five songs done and now we’re going to progress into a full length which is exciting,” says Oliver who has built a studio in his home. “We’re trying to play festivals here and there while we’re get-

ting it going.” Oliver says “it’s not much of a transition at all” going from rock to country. “I’m actually playing a lot more rock drumming now.” Scott and Oliver hand-picked the band and couldn’t be happier with how it’s turned out. The dynamic, he says, has been “amazing.” “We’re very lucky.” “A lot of bands I talk to say it takes a long time to figure out the proper members of your band and that’s the most important thing; you’ve got to have the chemistry. Everyday we’re killing it and bringing to the table; everyone knows what they have to do and they’re doing it. It’s awesome.” The Jamboree was “kind of the cap of the summer,” says Scott. “We’ll go back into the studio and finish the record and head on to the road.”

Bike helmets are essential for injury prevention News - Hastings - There is no excuse for not wearing a bike helmet, especially if you’re a youth or child. With head injuries accounting for up to 40 per cent of all cycling injuries, parents who allow their kids to bike helmet-free are being recklessly careless and negligent. Better that they wear helmets themselves to set a safe example and to underscore their position as role models. “All ages should be wearing helmets,� says Shelley Shaughnessy, a public health nurse with the Haliburton Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health Unit. That includes toddlers on tricycles, Shaughnessy stressed.

“Not all people are aware of that,� she said during a visit to the Ontario Early Years Centre in Hastings where she had a display and lots of literature on helmets and public safety. There was also a draw for two helmets. “It does protect your brain and your brain is very important to take care of. Bike helmets are a necessary thing. Parents and families need to be good role models.� There should be no second thoughts about parents outfitting their children with CSA approved, up-to-date and undamaged helmets. Statistics from studies reviewed by the Canadian Paediatric Society bear out the importance of protective head gear for cyclists,

particularly children and youth. Looking at hospitalizations alone, head injuries represent approximately 50 per cent of all bicycling injuries in children and youth, the CPS says. They represent the most severe injuries that occur. Bicycling injuries of all kinds are the fifth leading cause of child and youth hospitalization. One study the CPS reviewed indicated that helmet use reduced head and brain injuries by 69 per cent, severe brain injuries by 74 per cent and facial injuries by 65 per cent. The CPS also strongly advocates for all-ages mandatory helmet use. It says helmet use is greatest where all-

ages legislation exists such as in Nova Scotia and British Columbia. The HKPR Health Unit notes that the human skull is only five millimetres thick (the width of a pencil) and helmets can reduce injury significantly. The health unit encourages the “helmet habit� that should start with the child’s first ride on a tricycle. They also encourage parents to involve their children in the purchase of the helmet and praise them for wearing it while riding. Cyclists should wear helmets designed specifically for bicycling and they should meet Canadian safety standards and be fitted and worn properly. Children should not wear baseball caps or things like large hairclips

or headphones under their helmets. “Anything can change the way your child’s helmet fits,� the HKPR says. “It should be fitted properly,� says Shaughnessy. “Parents should follow the instructions. The chin strap should be tight enough that one finger fits underneath.� There should also be two finger widths between the eyebrows and helmet. The straps should be flat against the face and side straps should meet just below the ear to make a V-shape under the ear lobe. Helmets should be replaced every five years or if they were involved in a crash where a cyclist hit their head. After five years the plastics dry out and may become brittle. R0012748784

Township wants waterfront input on proposed septic inspection program owner, said CAO Pat Kemp. The township has yet to receive an exact number from the health unit on the inspection cost although a figure of $150 has been mentioned. The HBMLA suggested a flat fee could be added to the waterfront property owner’s tax bill and that cost be divided over five years. It’s crucial that the municipality establish exactly what the inspection cost will be and define what the program entails in any mail-out to lakefront owners, Mayor Ron Gerow emphasized. “We need to be clear with residents: yes, you are paying the bill,� Mayor Gerow said. “I think it’s important that we take all of the time to get all the feedback. “We have to hear from the majority before we make a decision,� he added,

sharing council’s concerns about the number of property owners who will respond to a mail-out. “I want to see that message, the wording, before I approve anything,� Gerow added. “I think this first stage is important, to see what kind of response we get,� said Councillor Jim Martin. “I’ve heard a lot of mixed stuff, people are scared of it. There is going to have to be a lot of thought go into this to make sure we do it right.� “This needs to be done. We need to know what people want and they need to get the right information,� Martin agreed. Councillors have attended lake and cottage asso-

for splashpad patrons. When the final design was being discussed by the splashpad committee they agreed there was no need to build a large change room facility on site. The washrooms are open daily from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. which has produced some extra costs for supplies and staff time for cleaning, Hartwick says. Plant readings are done daily while the screens which stop debris from entering the system are cleaned weekly, he said. Staff is on site at night to lock up. He estimates that there is an additional one and one-half hours of costs to be factored in.

News - Norwood - Norwood’s new splashpad is on target to meet its operational budget forecasts, says community centre manager Greg Hartwick. “It has been very well attended and well received by the community as a whole,� Hartwick said of the facility which was officially turned on July 1 as part of the township’s Canada Day celebrations. Water consumption for the period of June 30 to July 31 was 238.8 cubic metres with the bulk of that water used for the splashpad itself, Hartwick said. Some water, he added, was used for the grass and flowers in the immediate vicinity of the pad. When the municipality was first costing and budgeting for splashpad operations, with a 92-day open-forbusiness period, they reviewed the Trent Hills splashpad to determine operating expenses. At that time, Hartwick noted, staff costs were estimated at $3,288, with $700 for chemicals, $1,500 for hydro and $250 for water. After 30 full days of operation, he says they’re forecasting a $2,900 cost for staff time, $550 for chemicals and $370 for water with hydro costs to be factored in after the next billing from Peterborough Utilities Services. “These costs have been absorbed into the current budget with a few maintenance items for the community centre deferred until 2015 to hopefully cover off the additional expenses,� Hartwick said. One item they hadn’t considered as part of the budget was the use of the community centre washrooms

ciation meetings and talked about the septic inspection program as part of the “educational process,� Gerow noted. “It’s important that all the people get the same information.� Sharpe said he also wanted to hear what property owners not living on lakes think about the proposed program but Mayor Gerow stressed that the mailout and program is directed to lakefront owners only “not the whole township.� “This is the lakes we’re talking about.� “One of the things that is going to help here is the support we get from the Lake Associations themselves,� added Councillor Larry Ellis.

as possible. Certainly we ask the cottage associations for their input,� said Deputy-mayor Andy Sharpe. “We’re going to have to send out something that’s postage-paid to get a bigger return,� he added. The proposed program would have two phases. The first would be a review of septic permit records and a visual inspection by the health unit. Property owners would complete a questionnaire to supplement information already held by the PCCHU. If a problem is identified during phase one the health unit would do a more detailed inspection. The cost of the phase one inspection and any follow-up inspections as well as associated repairs or system replacements would be borne by the property

News - Havelock - The municipality will sound out waterfront residents on a proposed septic inspection program. The proposed program would be administered by the Peterborough County-City Health Unit and cover waterfront property owners only. It’s aimed at systems older than ten years. Input from lakefront owners is critical, councillors say, in order to determine if ratepayers support the initiative or not. The inspection program has been discussed at two previous meetings; both included representation from the Havelock Belmont Methuen Lakes Association (HBMLA). A special council meeting also included officials from the health unit. “I think it’s clear that council wants to hear from as many affected people

to the direction and relationship of the committee and public works in these projects.� The committee would like public works to take over the signs and entranceways to the township, garbage cans, Christmas decorations, the township map, benches and watering hanging baskets; parks and the community centre would look after the gardens at the entrance to the community centre, the gardens near the splashpad and playground, the Flora Street garden

and the Railside Rest park. The committee will continue to be responsible for a number of things including community theme ideas, the sale of hanging baskets, the pumpkin contest, Christmas window contest, the co-ordination of tree planting, the garden tour, corn sales at the Lions concerts, the cookbook and bulb sales. The parks department also needs to maintain the Breathing Forest trail network to make sure they are useable.

positioning to increase your chances of being seen by other motorists. As a motorist sharing the road with motorcyclists, you need to maintain a keen awareness of your surroundings and always be on watch for motorcycles, especially in blind spots before changing lanes. Myth: Motorcyclists are at far greater risk of crashing when riding on wet roads. Fact: While true that riding on wet roads places an additional risk on riders, 158 of the 175 motorcyclists who have died between 2008 and

2014 (to date) were riding on dry roads. Other facts relating to the 175 OPP-investigated motorcycle fatalities from 2008 to 2014 (as of August 18): 168 of the victims were the driver, seven were passengers. 156 of the victims were men, 19 were women. Top contributing factors on the part of the motorcyclist and/or other driver(s) involved in the collision are speed, loss of control, alcohol, failing to yield and inattention.

the law,â€? said OPP Deputy-commissioner Brad Blair, Provincial Commander, TrafďŹ c Safety and Operational Support. (The following data reect motorcycle fatalities within OPP jurisdiction): Myth: Young, inexperienced motorcyclists are the most vulnerable, at-risk riders and account for the largest number of victims who die in motorcycle crashes in Ontario. Fact: From 2008 to 2014 (as of August 18), only 16 of the 175 motorcyclists who have died on Ontario roads were under the age of 25. The age group with the highest rate of fatality is the 45-54 year group, which comprises 48 of the 175 victims. The second highest age group is the 55-64 year group, with 39 victims in that category. Combined, these two age groups account for almost half of the fatalities (87). Myth: Those who die in motorcycle crashes are doing something wrong at the time of the incident. Like other drivers, motorcyclists can avoid crashes if they drive properly and within the law. Fact: Between 2008 and 2014, for 50 of the 175 motorcycle victims, the driver of the motorcycle was driving properly at the time. Far too often, the actions of another driver are a causal factor in motorcycle crashes. Motorcycles are much harder to see than other vehicles. As a rider, it is important to wear high visibility equipment and put yourself in the proper lane

OPP share myths and facts about motorcycle deaths News - Orillia - With 26 motorcycle fatalities on record so far this year and at least two more months of the motorcycle season remaining, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) is concerned that 2014 motorcycle deaths could reach a seven-year high. Twenty-ďŹ ve motorcyclists and one passenger have died in motorcycle crashes within OPP jurisdiction this year as of as of August 18. The high number has prompted the OPP to share some facts and dispel some myths relating to the fatal motorcycle collisions it investigates in an effort to raise awareness about motorcycle safety. Earlier this month, OPP Aircraft Enforcement Patrol (AEP) clocked a motorcyclist travelling at 210 kilometres per hour, charging him under Ontario’s stunt driving law. The AEP airplane conducts patrols throughout the province and is highly effective at spotting motorcycles and other vehicles travelling at high rates of speed. “Other than a careless few that we come across during our enforcement operations, the OPP believes Ontario motorcyclists in general recognize that they are a vulnerable road user and demonstrate safe, defensive driving. We are relying on motorcyclists and the motoring public to work with us and join in our efforts to keep motorcycling safe. The solution is simple: ride and drive within

News - Norwood - The AsphodelNorwood BeautiďŹ cation Committee wants public works and parks staff to take over responsibility for some of the projects it has initiated over the years. The volunteer group is also asking council to increase its budget to $5,000 from $1,000 so the group is not forced into a constant fundraising mode. “The BeautiďŹ cation Committee has initiated many projects to enhance the image of the township with a focus on the village of Norwood. At this time we need to review and understand which can be maintained by the committee and/ or the public works department,â€? says Committee co-chair Doreen Allen-Bell in a letter to council. Allen-Bell notes that many committee members are retirees and volunteer with other service groups, organizations and events that take place throughout the township. “As our committee ages and we experience volunteer burn-out we are ďŹ nding that our ability to physically maintain these projects is diminishing,â€? she said. “The projects either need to be wound down or

maintained by the public works department to ensure they are kept at the level intended.â€? Allen-Bell said the committee is “happy to work alongside councilâ€? and help implement any new projects the township or committee launch. With that in mind, the committee is asking council for a boost in its budget to $5,000 in order to “alleviate some of the need to fund raise continuously.â€? “There are a number of spots around the village that could use a garbage can, the Christmas lights will need upgrading and we assume there will be other projects that will be brought to our attention,â€? she said. The committee’s last project was the Railside Rest parkade and trail, a development along the southwest shore of the Norwood Millpond off County Road 40. The Norwood Lions Club assisted the committee which also received funding support from the Horticultural Society. The BeautiďŹ cation Committee wants to review the “ongoing maintenance requirementsâ€? of the projects they listed for the municipality and “develop an understanding, to be approved by council, as

especially when life jackets or PFDs are used. Having a PFD available on your boat is not simply enough—you need to be wearing it at all times,� says Chief Superintendent John Tod, regional commander of the OPP Central Region. With the last official long weekend of the summer quickly approaching, the OPP want everyone to keep their heads above the water and wearing a PFD will allow you to float until help arrives in the event of an unexpected water related incident.

In one such occurrence where a PFD was worn this summer, an operator of personal watercraft was rendered unconscious after a collision with another vessel. Responding officers determined that the outcome could have been fatal if a PFD had not been used. Chief Superintendent John Tod says, “Our message to boaters in Central Region is simple: please wear your PFD and by doing so, you will be contributing and responsibly doing your part in making our waterways safer for all those who use them.�

Fibre workshop leaves powerful impression By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - Two local artists have found new inspiration after taking part in a fibre workshop at Lang Pioneer Village Museum led by world-renowned Hastings textile artist Dorothy Caldwell. “Dorothy’s just a wonderful person to work with; she’s always uplifting you,” says Corinne Patterson of Warkworth. “The encouragement was wonderful, inspirational.” She and Hastings artist Dianne Csenar were part of Caldwell’s three-day “Human Marks” workshop at Lang which has offered a series of textile classes this summer and fall. “They are marks that we make and what they represent and how we show our feelings for the moment,” said Patterson. She said they started with “a kind of finger-painting” and using ink on larger pieces of paper as well as brush strokes. “We were provided with a large and small pen to make little marks and we practised a little bit then we’d do a whole page of marks. Eventually these pages we were working

on became our books.” They also did a variety of stitching patterns working with various fibres. “You’re working with shapes, filling the space or having negative space and you’d get different patterns happening throughout that,” said Patterson. “It was just a very open and fun concept. “It was great working outside and it was perfect weather. We were with other textile artists and some who were not. Working with the other women who were there and being out in nature. Just being at Lang was beautiful with sheep beside us,” she said. “People who were visiting the village were always coming to see what we were doing. We were kind of part of the whole visitation event for them which was kind of fun.” Patterson called it a “really great, inspiring workshop. “We all wished it would have been a bit longer. I would encourage anyone to participate in these events. It’s wonderful, even if you don’t have the background you just go and see what your creativity will bring you.”

“Being outside was so conducive to the creativity,” adds Csenar. “Dorothy is so inspirational. She sees the possibilities in everything whereas you don’t always see the possibilities,” she said. Csenar is a painter and admits that the “kind of freedom [Caldwell] was trying to promote is a struggle for me.” “I loosened up a lot,” she added. “It was a class where Dorothy did not want you to have expectations and expectations, as an artist, stifle the creativity.” Csenar said they did a series of exercises “where you couldn’t see the outcome and as the class evolved you could see where it might be going.” One of the exercises she really enjoyed was “blind stitching.” Corinne Patterson of Warkworth and Diane Csenar of Hastings show off some of the pieces they made at the Human Marks “You go in there and do it textile workshop they attended at Lang Pioneer Village Museum. World-renowned Hastings textile artist Dorothy Caldwell led and see what happens and each the three-day workshop. Photo: Bill Freeman mark you make helps you to decide how you may go further. You just can’t predict the outcome.” “I was totally stoked and happy,” Csenar said. “I’m right into all of this fabric and stitching now.”

Sports - Campbellford - The Campbellford Rebels opened their main camp last week and the team that ultimately emerges from the winnowing process will have a much different look from last season’s Junior C squad. “We made 14 changes last year [and] thought we were in pretty good shape [heading into this season],â€? general manager Mark Burrowes said. But the team is now faced with the prospect of losing about seven of its players who have made the cut at Junior B teams, he said. “It’s a compliment to the coaches and organization that eight, nine guys have moved to another level in the last two years, which is pretty good,â€? Burrowes said. Thirty players were invited to the main camp which continues this week in Brighton before exhibition play begins. Ten played for the Rebels last year. “We’re probably going to have a pretty good nucleus this year of local players,â€? Burrowes said. “There’s going to be quite a few from Campbellford, Norwood as it looks right now.â€? The second-year GM said all six teams in the Empire B Junior C Hockey League “are in the same boatâ€? and will have a large phalanx of new players to incorporate into their lineups. “We’re going to be young again but we’ll be competitive,â€? he said. “The league in general is going to be pretty tight.â€? Departing Rebels include the team’s top two leading scorers Ryan Crowley (over age) and Jordan Boutilier, as well as forwards Joshua Leavey and TJ Patterson. However, the team’s top sniper, Jeremiah Doherty, who scored 21 goals in 39 games, will be coming back along with “three pretty goodâ€? defencemen, Grant Fry, Andy Doxtator and Brad Jacklin. Kenny Chesher, who played pro hockey for a short time, has moved up from assistant coach to coach, taking the place of Bart Crashley who will continue to work with the team in a different capacity. “We’ll probably be more of an attacking team,â€? Burrowes said. The GM said the league is bringing back the all-star game, which hasn’t been held in three years—“they’re still bouncing around who’s going to host itâ€?—and teams will play three skaters in overtime, not four as in years past. Campbellford squeaked into the playoffs last season, ďŹ nishing in fourth spot one point ahead of Napanee but just one in back of both Amherstview and Port Hope. Picton towered over the others, losing just four times, twice after regulation play, en route to a 74-point season. The Rebels will host the Kawartha Knights this Friday in Brighton at 8:30 p.m. and then travel to Apsley for a return match Saturday for a 7:30 p.m. tilt. The Knights are a new franchise that

Thousands arrive for annual farm show By Richard Turtle

John Boldrick of Tweed operates an old corn/straw cutter during the antique equipment demonstrations at the Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show. The annual event celebrated its 26th anniversary this year.

News - Stirling - For the 26th year in a row, thousands of agriculturalists gathered on a local farm to celebrate and showcase the industry and provide a little education along the way. For two days last week Forestell Hay Farms, operated by brothers Jim and Larry Forestell, was home of the Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show, transformed into a tented city with demonstrations, displays and activities onsite along with various plowing competitions with classes for both tractors and horses. An estimated 9,000 visitors attended the first day of the show last Wednesday with significantly smaller numbers on the rain-soaked Thursday, but show hosts, organizers and volunteers were all smiles despite the showers. During opening ceremonies Hastings County Warden Rick Phillips provided a brief lesson in local history before turning his attention to “the dedicated men and women who put on the Hastings County Plowing Match.â€? And in his own welcoming address, host Larry Forestell also recalled his personal history with past shows noting, “Jim and I plowed in it when we were teenagers.â€? Stirling-Rawdon Mayor Rodney Cooney also spoke of the rich agricultural history here and the good fortune that the township has had in its numerous hostings of the annual event. Cooney also commended the work done by organizers to hold the event and thanked municipal staff for their extra efforts to accommodate the additional traffic. “It’s hard to believe,â€? he said, “that you can take a field on Sunday ‌ to this and it’s back to a field again on Saturday.â€? Show Committee President Jim Gunning was also among the opening ceremony speakers, offering words of Please see “Hastingsâ€? on page 2

Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show celebrates 26 years Continued from page B1

thanks to the many volunteers and participants as well as welcoming visitors before 2013-2014 Queen of the Furrow Rebecca Haan officially opened what has become eastern Ontario’s largest outdoor farm show. Throughout the two-day show numerous activities, workshops and presentations were held in

various locations on the Farm Show site with exhibitors displaying new equipment, technology and services often with ongoing demonstrations. Antique tractors paraded through the tent city each day, returning to the antique displays where early 20th century equipment, with plenty of huffing and puffing, was put

back to work. And in a field just out of range of the smoke and steam from the early farming machines, were demonstrations of some of the latest developments by equipment manufacturers. In the fields staked for plowing, competitors used tractors of all descriptions, including an Please see “Plowing” on page B3

The horse classes saw a slight decline from previous years, says Horse Plowing Chair Jeanne Hadwen, with about a dozen competing teams in this year’s match, but the animals and the old ways continue to attract plenty of attention. The BMO Team, in conjunction with the Ontario Plowmen’s Association, was also on hand to recognize the local recipients of the Ontario Farm Family Awards, which, this year, were handed out to 26 families across Ontario.

there was the auction for the remaining “best seats.” Russell estimated they raised between $6,000 and $7,000 with the VIP passes alone. “People want to be supportive and it’s worked out very well for us,” he said. Several best seats winners were “repeats,” added Catherine Holt, the foundation’s donor relations and communications officer. “It was a real treat for us at the foundation to connect with them and they appreciated the VIP treatment,” Holt said. The funds will be used for lab equipment associated with the digital mammography unit now installed and in use at the hospital, said Russell. It was Russell’s second best seats event and he was again thrilled to work with Leslie and Chopik and Jamboree staff and volunteers. “I’m really impressed with how [the Jamboree] is operated,” he said. “From the Jamboree’s perspective, they know they bring a lot of people into the area,” Russell said. The Jamboree has “excellent medical care on site” but during the event “the hospital is on alert,” he noted. “CMH is their hospital and there is extra staff on and on-call in case emergencies come up.

Cycling to the abbeys and city centre of Leuven, Belgium

centre’s University Library. While in the city centre, we also checked out St. Peter’s Church (UNESCO World Heritage Site), Museum M (an art museum), and Munstraat (the popular, narrow, cozy street that’s totally lined with restaurants and bars). The cycling route to the four abbeys that’s laid out in the Leuven tourist office’s brochure is relatively flat and easy, and it first takes you to Saint-Geertrui Abbey, founded in the 13th century. Like the other abbeys on this route, this one is now leased by the city. However, in the early part of the 20th century, this one was restored and used by Benedictine nuns for university education for girls, until 1978 when the nuns relocated. Keizersberg Abbey, a Benedictine monastery, is the second one visited on this route, and it’s located on a hill known as Caesar’s Hill or Emperor’s Hill. One of its resident monks, Dom Bruno, gained notoriety for hiding many Jewish children from the Nazis during World War II. Vlierbeek Abbey, the next stop, was founded in the 12th century, and its abbot’s residence and church are still standing. There’s a relatively small, white church, cemetery, farmland, and a statue of the Virgin Mary here. Park Abbey was the next and final stop on this two-wheeled abbey tour, and it was my favourite. It’s now undergoing major renovations, and the plans are to make it look as it did back in the 18th century. It will become a precious heritage site, with several restored buildings, including a barn, working mill, church, library, dormitory, and a museum of religious relics. The walled abbey has several entrances and gates—and lakes. It was actually founded here in the 12th

century on land that had been used as the Duke of Brabant’s hunting grounds, and it has housed Norbertine monks ever since. You’ll find beautiful stained glass windows and well preserved cloisters here. Since at one time this abbey fed and cared for the poor, it’s rather reassuring that, at the present time, the abbey’s garden is now being used and maintained by the handicapped; they sell the produce

to the public once a week and keep the profits. You’ll find separate bike paths or lanes for much of this route, and you’ll also find other suggested cycling routes at the Leuven Tourist Office. However, I found this particular route, the shortest, provided a great overview of Leuven and I’d recommend it. For more information <www.visitflanders.us>.

Lifestyles - While in Leuven, Belgium, located about 25 kilometres east of Brussels, I participated in a circuit bike ride that took me to four abbeys and to the city centre. The map for this 13-kilometre route was available free from the Leuven Tourist Office <www. visitleuven.be>, and this proved to be a great way to see many of the city’s main tourist attractions. I was staying next to the train station, at the Park Inn by Radisson, so it was very convenient for me to pick up a bicycle at the nearby bicycle rental The 15th century Old Town Hall, in the city centre. garage and begin/end my ride at Martelarenplein (Station Square), which is said to be “the public gateway to Leuven.” I was joined on my ride by tour guide Guido Claessen, and since he was a local, we did some “detours” and “add-ons” along the way to see even more of the sights. For example, we cycled to a new sportsplex, with its skatepark, tennis courts, swimming pools, etc. We passed by the large Stella Artois Brewery and the small Domus brewery. We also visThe blending of old and new architectural styles in the old monastery and ited the very beautiful 15th century Old Town Hall, located in the city new university library. centre and then, for contrast, rode past the much more modern (and dull) new Town Hall. Near this latter structure was Provincehouse, a modern skyscraper with a high, black wall with no windows but with one strange-looking balcony protruding out of the building, high above the ground. Guido told me the architect intended this as a smokers’ balcony so the office workers here didn’t have to leave the building to enjoy a smoke Continued from page B4 during the day. they want to give back.” Since Leuven is a university town, The auction also gives Russell and his associates a with many university students, there’s chance to talk about the hospital. a constant demand here for more stu“There are a lot of people from out of the area so they dent housing, and many of the old, don’t necessarily know what CMH does so we talk to historic buildings are now being used people about what our small rural hospital does on a dai- by the university.

The Good Earth:

Trees and gardens in Barrie

Lifestyles - This past weekend, Betty and I were touring the Barrie area. A few years ago, we had occasion to spend a bit of time in that oldest of cities, and, unfortunately, we were not at all impressed. This time we thought we would stay over for a few days and get to know the town. The first day was a washout in terms of improving our regard. We weren’t really aware of it but we came in on the busiest approach road, drove through town on the busiest road and stayed at a hotel near the busiest intersection on the planet. Okay, I know Toronto folk will dispute that but I would argue, with the exception of the Don Valley and 401, there isn’t any place busier than Bayfield and 400—at the north end. It is important to note that this was a Saturday and Barrie is sort of a hub for Torontonians heading off to Wasaga Beach or the Muskokas—which means 42 per cent of all Toronto scooted past our hotel that evening. We set aside Sunday for touring through the town. We drove around in the old residential neighbourhoods and found Collier United Church with open doors, so we went in. Very nice, engaging set of folks. After services, we found ourselves at Heritage Park on the bay.

Now Jack LeBlanc and the splash park crew would be envious of this splash park; the water came up in fountains but also through massive boulders. There was also a very wide and long man-made creek running through the park with several waterfalls. The water was fast moving, crystal clear and made just the right “babbling brook” sound. The Serendipity Princess was at the docks, so we boarded her for a two-hour cruise along the shores of Kempenfelt Bay. We did see some mansions and resorts that only a robber baron could afford and they were spectacular. Then it was time to walk through the neighbourhoods and drive through a few others. We are glad we did because once you get into the residential areas; the nature of the town comes through. The very first thing we noticed was the trees. The streets, old and new, are very wide with lots of boulevard space. In one section, eastern end of Grove Street East, there was a run of almost 20 Globe Maples. I’d like to comment that it appears there is active thought given to creating and maintaining a tree scape in the city. Lots of variety and well pruned. On city boulevards and roadsides we saw many Ivory Silk lilac, some

catalpa, weeping willow, ironwood, the ubiquitous Colorado blue spruce, many firs and Scots pine— very few white pine—but far and way the most common was the sugar maple. For a town established in 1833 (20 years before Trenton), it makes sense that one of our oldest hardwoods is the preferred tree. For trees, Barrie is among the best I’ve seen. Gardens are another matter. Yes, there are some beautiful gardens that stopped us in our tracks, but on the grand scheme of things, we did not see gardening to the extent we see in the Quinte area. Before you say, well, of course because it is much, much colder there, let me tell you that I have also never seen so many Roses of Sharon in so many gardens as in Barrie. Mature butterfly bushes were also in prominence. Most gardens contained coniferous foundation shrubs with hydrangeas, ornamental grasses, and a few of the more common perennials such as coneflower, rudbeckia and lots of summer phlox to dress them up. Annuals were used sparingly except in the city parks—massive waves of pink petunias everywhere. Interestingly, after cedar, the

Entertainment - Rednersville Al Purdy is returning in several guises to the Active Arts Studio this weekend in support of the writers in residence program at the Purdy A-Frame in Ameliasburgh. Purdy, the celebrated Canadian poet and novelist who passed away in 2000, is still being remembered through music and theatre and continues to inspire emerging writers and artists. And several will be on hand at the converted church in Rednersville on Saturday, August 30, beginning at

3 p.m. for an evening of entertainment and literature. And beer. The schedule opens with a performance of Al Purdy at the Quinte Hotel, by Dave Carley and featuring the poems of Al Purdy. Richard Turtle will play the role of Purdy with musical accompaniment by Andy Thompson. Katherine Leyton, the Aframe’s first writer in residence, will present a video of her summer work How Pedestrian before the Gerry Shatford Trio performs the original jazz suite When I Sat

Down to Play the Piano, based on the poetry of Al Purdy. Food and refreshments, including a complimentary serving of Barley Days Brewery’s Sensitive Man ale will also be available. Tickets are $50 per person and are available in advance online at <www.activeartsstudio.com>. Proceeds go toward the A-frame residency program. “This is going to be a tremendous evening,” says event organizer Lindi Pierce.

Purdy poems taking the stage

two most commonly seen hedging or dividing plants were quince (chaenomeles) and some taller varieties of miscanthus—usually Silver Feather or a taller variety. Quince can be trimmed hard and easily shaped; the grass needs a lot of space. With all of the tall trees, shaded gardens were everywhere with hydrangea being the flowering shrub of choice. Annabelle and PeeGee were the mainstays with nary a

blue nor red to be seen. The grass was great! Which proves the maxim: if you want good grass, plant a tree. Barrie showed itself very well in terms of municipal gardens. I’d like to close by going back to Collier Street United Church and the gardens surrounding it. There was an abundance of Roses of Sharon and tea roses- not what you expect up “north” but, then, we also saw a Community in Blooms plaque.

was pretty amazing, it’s never happened before. The social media have really helped this year. It’s made a huge, huge difference.” This year’s Elvis festival almost didn’t happen. Organizers failed to receive supportive provincial government grants they had in previous years but last-minute efforts by organizers helped by MPP Todd Smith succeeded in obtaining corporate sponsorships. “We ended up with sponsorship from two different banks. TD [Toronto Dominion] was gotten by Todd Smith, and we got sponsorships from Scotiabank, and of course Moira Place [long-term-care facility],

That worked out quite well.” The weather was again co-operative for the festival with rain holding off for the Friday and Saturday performances and skies becoming pleasantly sunny on Sunday. Twenty-nine Elvis Tribute Artists (ETAs) had paid the $100 registration fee for the festival but two of them

were unable to make it to Tweed and had to cancel on short notice. The competition is divided into non-pro and professional classes and judged by five experienced judges, based on each song, on the criteria of voice, appearance, presence and overall performance. Master of Ceremonies duties were shared by Freddy Vette, Scott Pettigrew, Paul Eros and Francis Woodcock. New vendors were in evidence at this year’s festival offering a varied selection of foods and jewellery, embroidered clothing, crafts and novelties and the services and products of “Reiki on Wheels,” a Belleville based enterprise. Beyond ranked prizes in each category, pro and non-pro, a Fan’s Choice award was presented, and festivalgoers had a chance to win a 50/50 draw (close to $600) and other prizes. The overall first place winners were James Gibb of Harrow, Ontario, in the pro contest, and Anthony Carbone in the non-pro division. Winners receive a weekend at the Heartbreak Hotel in Memphis, platinum passes to Graceland, and a cash award. Most significantly, the winner goes on to represent Tweed at the next Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist contest in Memphis. Commenting on the mood of this year’s festival and the many positive observations and compliments, Ms. LeSage expresses satisfaction. “I’m hearing a lot of that [compliments] and it’s making me really happy and proud of our volunteers. If it’s calm, people enjoy it a lot more. Trying to keep it calm and have fun and yes, deal with issues quickly, makes it less stressful for the volunteers. And I think that also comes with having done it before. And we had amazing ETAs this year. I’ll go through the entrants and go to You Tube and looking at what they’re like if they’re somebody I don’t know. I’ll Bruce Andrew Stewart carries on Elvis’ military look at the new ones and go ‘wow.’ This tradition. This year’s festival was themed GI year there were a lot of ‘wows.’” Blues.

On behalf of our family and most importantly our son Jaimen, we would like to take the time to thank everyone who took a part in the “Jam for Jaimen”. As some of you may know we have been faced with the challenging disease of juvenile diabetes, otherwise known as Type 1 diabetes. We have been admitted to many hospitals over the past two years dealing with difficult and uncontrollable blood sugar levels and are now making regular trips to Sick Kids, in Toronto in hopes to get an insulin pump to help with better control. The love, strength and support we have received from our community, friends and family this past summer has been so remarkable and encouraging during such a stressful time. A genuine thank you goes to Cindy at Rock, Paper, Scissors, Tammy from Out on a Limb, Nicky and family at Pixie Hill Studio, Susan at Love Em Pets, Debbie and the girls at Sally’s Hair Studio in Trenton, Mel at Juniors Café and to the members of Brighton Rotary Club. Thanks to Mrs. B’s Country Candy, Lola’s Coffee House, Off the Hook, Eco Kids, Casa Dea Winery, Brighton Speedway, G&G Handcraft, Beaufort Pub in Belleville, Presqu’ile Bay Outfitters, Tracy’s Creative Hair Design, Rosie’s Family Restaurant, Timber Ridge Golf Course, Mike and Lori’s No Frills, and the Happy Quilters of Brighton. A heartfelt thank you goes out to Chicky, the “Mother of all Things” and all her “Things”. And thank you to all the golfers at Hagen’s annual golf tournament. Thank you to Brian Pierce, his loving family, his band friends and the “Osmos” for coming all the way out of town to perform for us while the event was taking place. A huge thank you to Adam Wilson, who also travelled a long way, for his awesome guitar playing and amazing vocals! Thank you to Mary Francis for your beautifully talented singing. Thank you to Jin for taking some amazing photos. Thank you to Gramma and Papa Semple for hosting the event at your home. Thanks to Papa Ray for the use of your truck and being the go-to during all the planning and putting together. To Slow-Poke-Dan for making us the BEST lemonade-stand ever! Thanks to Uncle Andy and Uncle Kevin for cooking up a storm! A big thanks to Aunt Mel, Auntie Amy, Aunt Ange and Aunt Laura for everything you helped put together. And many more thanks goes to the rest of our family and friends for their generous donations and ongoing support. Last but defiantly not least we would like to send a huge thanks to Jaimen’s amazing and special Gramma’s; Gramma Kate and Gramma Cindy. The two of you have done so much for us and supported us greatly. You have been our strength through this all and without you ladies in our lives we would be lost. Type 1 Diabetes is a lifelong journey and the support from all of you helps to give us the hope and strength we need to keep moving forward! Thanks ever so much! ~ The Davis’ Family

Sills crowned Queen of the Furrow well as several other gifts. Sills says she is thrilled to be taking on the role and is very much looking forward to the year ahead. Currently at home on the family farm and well-versed in issues of agriculture, Sills is now in Grade 12 and plans to attend post-secondary school next year to pursue a career in the health care field. But before that there will be parades and functions and special events the Queen of the Furrow will attend to educated and enlighten others on the industry.

Rebecca Haan, the 20132014 Queen and a resident of Marysville, says her past year has provided “memories to last a lifetime,” and an opportunity to participate in several educational events with young students. “Their eyes light up when they get to meet a real live queen,” she says. Typically, the Queen of the Furrow attends a variety of agricultural events throughout the year-long reign as well as Christmas parades and community celebrations. And while the number of competitors

changes each year, organizers are hopeful the program will continue to attract interest from young women with an interest in agriculture. Speaking on behalf of this year’s 4-H Plowing Club another former queen, Brianna Dracup, said with the large contingent of girls in this year’s group there are many potential contestants waiting in the wings to vie for future titles. Anyone interested in participating next year can contact Natalie Doornbos (613-969-0802) or find further information on the Internet at <plowingmatch.org>.

Hastings County Queen of the Furrow Rebecca Haan (2013-2014) takes to the fields during last week’s Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show held at Forestell Hay Farms in Stirling-Rawdon. By Richard Turtle

News - Stirling - Jessica Sills has been crowned Hastings County Queen of the Furrow and will spend the next year as an agricultural ambassador while completing her studies at St. Theresa Secondary School in Belleville. Sills was one of two competitors for the 2014-2015 crown, along with Stirling resident Stephanie Stuart; they vied for the crown during the Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show last week. Queen of the Furrow Co-ordinator Natalie Doornbos, a former Queen herself, explains that the selection process requires participants to compete in a plowing demonstration, participate in an interview with the judges and present a speech in front of the Plowing Match crowds. With the competition’s required elements completed, Sills and Stuart nervously awaited the judges’ decision during a short musical interlude provided by Wrought Iron Roots. With the announcement of this year’s winner, a beaming Sills took the stage and was Rebecca Haan crowns Jessica Sills as the 2014-2015 Hastings County Queen presented with the sash and crown as of the Furrow.
