Fewer students entering Grade 9 at CDHS

By John Campbell

News - Campbellford - Scores of Grade 9 students, along with parents, dropped by Campbellford District High School August 28 to prepare for their ďŹ rst day of school in a much larger setting. About 110 are making the move from Grade 8, much fewer than the 150 who made the transition from public school last year. “Everyone’s down across the province,â€? CDHS principal Doug Birch said. With fewer Grade 9 students coming in, the school’s projected student enrollment has been lowered to 510, down from 550.

Orientation Day included a tour of the school led by peer mentor groups, meetings with teachers and senior staff, and a student council barbecue at the end. The event, which was optional for students to attend, was held “to make the transition as smooth as possible,� said Birch, who joked: “In my day they tried to scare the crap out of you. It was like how much intimidation can we heap on you in one day, whereas now the feeling is [that only causes] anxiety and stress.� The transition actually began last November when Grade 8 students were brought into the school and it continued

throughout the school year, including a night to review with parents their children’s non-compulsory course options. “We try to make lots of connections with [the students],� Birch said. He said it’s important that parents, if possible, join their teenage students at Orientation Day because entering high school is a “major transition in their life, one of the rites of passage� to a whole new environment. “So they’re brought in multiple times over the year as guests to various things,� Birch said, so that they feel comfortable when the school year begins.

Re-use facility could be built cheaper in-house By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - It would be less costly to build a re-use structure in-house, Public Works and Environmental Services Manager Jeff Waldon told council after revealing that the sole tender for the project at the transfer station came in at more than twice their budget. The municipality had budgeted

$30,000 for the 25-foot by 40-foot structure and hoped to have it competed in 2014. With a bid of $62,658, Waldon recommends that public works do some more research and explore the in-house option using the new storage building at the community centre as a template because of its similar design. The smaller 18-foot by 30-foot com-

munity centre building came in under its $14,500 budget. It was built in-house, Waldon noted. The cost would be around $27 per square foot, Waldon said. “The staff recommendation is that we let this go this year and research doing in-house much like the storage facility at Please see “Re-use� on page 2

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. Interested persons may review this document and provide comments to the Municipality. Subject to comments received as a result of this Notice, funding opportunities, and the receipt of necessary approvals, the Municipality may then proceed with the works.

The Schedule ‘B’ Report is available for review beginning provided herein). If no request is received within 30 days of the initial posting on August 28, 2014. The Executive Summary will be posted of the Schedule ‘B’ Report, the Municipality intends to proceed towards to the Municipality’s website (www.trenthills.ca) and a copy implementation. of the complete Report will be available at the following Minister of the Environment, Ontario location: 77 Wellesley Street West Municipality of Trent Hills 11th Floor, Ferguson Block 66 Front Street South Toronto ON M7A 2T5 Campbellford, ON K0L 1L0 This Notice issued the 28th day of August, 2014. Telephone: (705) 653-1900 Monday to Friday, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Please send any comments by September 27, 2014 to: Mr. Scott White General Manager of Infrastructure Renewal and Public Works Administration Municipality of Trent Hills 66 Front Street South P.O. Box 1030 Campbellford, ON, K0L 1L0 Facsimile: (705) 653-5904 Electronic-mail: scott.white@trenthills.ca Comments Any information collected during the review period will be managed in accordance with the Freedom of Information and Protection Act.

If concerns arise regarding the Schedule ‘B’ Report, which cannot be resolved in discussion with the Municipality, a person or party may request that the Minister of the Environment make an Order for the project to comply with Part II of the Environmental Assessment Act (referred to as a Part II Order), which addresses individual environmental assessments. Requests must be received by the Minister at the address below within 30 calendar days of the first day of posting of the Schedule ‘B’ Report (up to and including September 27, 2014).

New business started to keep cat care program in operation By John Campbell

Business - Campbellford Great mews, Cat’s Cradle New to You Boutique held its ofďŹ cial opening last Friday. The business, at 8 Bridge Street West, was launched to

provide a steady source of income for the Cat Care Spay Neuter Initiative (CCSNI) so it can continue its efforts to reduce the number of abandoned, unwanted cats by rendering them incapable of re-

producing. The boutique is stocked with donations by “people who have been very generous,� and staffed by volunteers, said CCSNI co-founder Suzanne Hart.

Its wares include clothes, shoes, furniture, antiques, books, and collectibles—“everything and anything.â€? The shop’s hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, but it might stay open later on Fridays, depending on the availability of volunteers. For the past two years the organization has been spaying and neutering feral cats as well as rescuing as many as it can accommodate; the latter effort is limited by the number of foster homes it has to take in abandoned cats while a home is found for them. “We’re really excited about this venture and hope that we can be here for a long time,â€? Hart said. “It’s been my dream ever since we started [the initiative] to do it. We just didn’t think we’d ever be able to afford it, and the landlord gave us a really wonderful deal for rent.â€? Having a business to generate revenue is “very important because our fund raisers don’t bring in enough money to help as many cats as we’d like to help,â€? she said. “Right now we have about 75 cats and kittens, and I get calls every day, people wanting us to take more, and we just don’t have the resources to do that.â€? The cats are placed temporarily with foster homes because CCSNI doesn’t have a shelter. “We’re deďŹ nitely reducing the numbers with the amount of kittens that we’ve been rescuing and the parents that we’ve been spaying and neutering, but people are still abandoning cats every day,â€? Hart said. “It’s never-

CMH training future healthcare providers News - Campbellford - It’s a busy night at Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) and Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree program student Rebecca Butler is gaining some valuable hands-on experience caring for patients in the hospital’s special care unit. Butler is in her second last semester as a nursing student at the Trent/Fleming School of Nursing based at Trent University in Peterborough. To gain her degree in Nursing, she must complete a 300-hour placement that gives her, under the guidance of a preceptor, an opportunity to integrate, synthesize and evaluate nursing knowledge and skills in a real setting. “Mentorship is hugely valuable in nursing and is one of the most important aspects in learning how to be a nurse,� said Butler. “Nothing replaces having the

ability to ask questions in the moment as things unfold, and having people support me in building my conďŹ dence in making decisions and having the conďŹ dence to make clinical decisions that are in the best interests of our patients. This is not something you learn reading in a book,â€? she added. Butler is particularly appreciative of the investment of time and expertise her preceptor Jennifer Woods, a Registered Nurse at CMH, is making in her future. “The nursing team here works very hard. I am grateful for the time Jennifer and the other nurses are taking to teach me when they already have full schedules. They are helping me to learn so I can be a better nurse,â€? she said. Butler also values the breadth and depth of experience she is gaining by working in a smaller, team-oriented environment offered

by Campbellford, where everyone pitches in to support each other and patients. “There are a lot of beneďŹ ts of being in a smaller hospital. It is a more personal environment. You get to know people better, do more and see more. People are very welcoming at Campbellford. People seek me out when there is something different happening so I can experience new things. I also appreciate the opportunity to support others and contribute when things get a little crazy,â€? she commented. For Woods, the experience is equally gratifying. “I know how important it is to have a good experience as a student. As a preceptor, we learn a lot about ourselves. We understand what our strengths are and we are also challenged by the questions they ask,â€? she commented.

Jan Raine, chief nursing ofďŹ cer at CMH, talked about the partnership. “I am really proud of our nursing team members, like Jennifer, who are taking the extra time and making an effort to give back or ‘pay it forward.’ We are a compassionate profession and it is heartening to see that compassion extend to each other as well as our patients with this kind of partnership and mentoring.â€? A small hospital also offers the student a chance to work with a variety of patients. Cyndi Gilmer, assistant professor at Trent/Fleming School of Nursing commented too. “Our partnership with CMH is one of many we have with hospitals providing clinical experience for nursing students who are re- Nursing student Rebecca Butler, left, is completing her nursing preceptor quired to have a certain number of credit at Campbellford Memorial Hospital under the mentorship of Jennifer clinical hours before graduation.â€?

Council defers decision on beautification funding request By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - Township council has deferred a request from the Asphodel-Norwood BeautiďŹ cation Committee to increase its budget from $1,000 to $5,000. “When I saw the letter it was news to me,â€? Mayor Doug Pearcy said of the funding request that was included in a letter to council that also asked the municipality to take on some of the committee’s maintenance tasks. Many of those maintenance items are already being tended to by municipal staff, councillors were told.

Mayor Pearcy is a member of the BeautiďŹ cation Committee and said he was “not part of the discussionâ€? that recommended the funding increase. “I think they better be prepared to explain the request,â€? Pearcy said. “When the municipal budget does come forward that change should be highlighted so that council of the day picks up that they’re asking for a $4,000 increase.â€? “We’re just going to take over all this stuff and increase their budget?â€? Councillor Mary Hay wondered aloud. “Do they really need that $5,000 budget to do the

PETE’S AUTO & TRUCK REPAIR Seniors Summer 10% Discount Check-Up (PARTS ONLY) starting at $74.95

things that are left?â€? In asking for the budget increase, the BeautiďŹ cation Committee said it would “alleviate some of the need to fund raise continuously.â€? “The township has acquired in the last ďŹ ve years by community fund raising and volunteer efforts a splash pad, a large playground, a Breathing Forest trail and BeautiďŹ cation Committee projects that take time and effort,â€? said Hay. “So we’ve got new things that have come into the township; I’m not saying they’re not good things, they are; but what people forget is the residual cost of keeping them going. I think

we’ve already identiďŹ ed the ongoing costs of the splash pad; there will be one for the playground and Breathing Forest and Railside Rest. “[We] have to remember these ongoing costs; so, too, the taxpayers need to remember the costs,â€? Hay said. In a report by CAO Joe van Koeverden on the BeautiďŹ cation letter the Breathing Forest trail is mentioned as needing some maintenance work by parks staff. Councillor Hay pointed out that the Breathing Forest project is spearheaded by the Millpond Committee not the BeautiďŹ cation Committee although the Railside

Rest, a BeautiďŹ cation project, is at the millpond and includes a trail. “The Breathing Forest has moved forward very little this year,â€? said van Koeverden. “If it were to be put in a useable state public works or parks would have to take an active role in that. I have talked to the committee chair about that and he said to hold off on any changes there and they’ll discuss it amongst themselves as to how much work they can do.â€? “Committees like that are good at designing projects but when it comes to cutting trails they will fall back on us if they’re going to

move that forward,â€? he added. Councillor Roy Millett said he wanted to know the costs of the items the BeautiďŹ cation Committee suggested should be handed over the municipality before he approved anything. “I’m not against what they’ve done,â€? Millett stressed. “We keep hearing that we have to cut back and all we do is add costs.â€? “The crux of the problem is what is going to happen in the future,â€? Pearcy added. He acknowledged that watering plants is “labour intensive. “But if you want to have things looking good in our town you have to pay for them.â€?

OPINION

The Kagame Dilemma

Editorial - “Whoever betrays the country will pay the price, I assure you,” Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame told a rally soon after the country’s former intelligence chief, Patrick Karegeya, was found strangled in a South African hotel room last January. Karegeya had quit the government and become a leading opponent of the regime, which President Kagame would certainly see as a betrayal of the country. It’s not unusual for dictators to see their own interests and those of the country they rule as one and the same thing. It’s not even uncommon for dictators to have people killed. What’s really rare is a dictator who has had quite a lot of people killed, but is congratulated by other countries for his excellent administration and showered with foreign aid. That is the happy lot of President Paul Kagame. Fewer than half of Rwanda’s 12 million people have personal memories of the terrible genocide 20 years ago, but the country as a whole is still haunted by it. Kagame has ruled Rwanda for all of that time, and he is convinced that only he can stop it from happening again. It’s only a small step from there to believing that he has the duty to maintain his rule by any means necessary, including even murder. All the murders are officially denied, but nobody believes it. Last week four not very competent assassins, one Rwandan and three Tanzanians, were found guilty by a South African court of trying to kill the former Rwandan army chief of staff, Faustin Kayumba Nyamwasa, in Johannesburg in 2010. They shot him in the stomach, but he survived after months in intensive care—and they didn’t get away. The South African judge, Stanley Mkhair, said diplomatically that the plot to kill Nyamwasa came from “a certain group of people from Rwanda.” The South African authorities even know how much the assassins were paid: 80,000 rand ($7,500). But it was just not worth naming Kagame. Last March, when South African Justice Minister Jeff Radebe warned Rwanda to stop after another attempt on Nyamwasa’s life, the two countries went through a ritual round of tit-for-tat expulsions of diplomats. Once a year is enough, but at least South Africa complains occasionally.

Most other African countries look the other way when Kagame’s hit squads turn up, people like Tony Blair accept lifts in his private jet, and the aid agencies don’t even flinch.

United Way’s back packs for kids a big hit

By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - Free back packs with school supplies are being snapped up by Hastings Public School parents happy to have one less expense and worry on their back-to-school shopping list. For the first time, the Northumberland United Way’s “Back Pack for Kids� program included Hastings Public School with the organization providing 50 bags and a host of supplies to the school. The backpacks covered all grades, from kindergarten to intermediate divisions, with supplies matching the grade levels. Businesses like Staples and Walmart, 24 in all along with service clubs and other partners, were among those making dona-

tions to the program “It’s definitely helping our community,� HPS principal Sara Rogers told The Trent Hills Independent. Rogers said the United Way phoned the school in early spring asking them if they would be interested in the program to help get students “started for school.� “We said absolutely; we could use some,� she said. The United Way delivered providing the school with 50 back packs and supplies, everything from lunch bags and water bottles to notebooks, pencils and calculators. “A nice variety,� says Rogers. To her knowledge, Hastings Public has never before participated in the United

Way’s back pack program. Back-to-school time can be an expensive and challenging time for many parents and this program takes some of that stress away, says Rogers. “I know this has definitely relieved the parents from worrying about the essentials they love to have.� The school sent out a general email to parents telling them that they had received back packs and if they needed one they could visit the school. The day after that email was sent 12 parents came in to pick up back packs. They were also fielding telephone calls. It is a nice boost to start the school year, said Rogers. The Northumberland United Way is celebrating its tenth anniversary for Back Packs for Kids and expects to distribute over 1,600 back packs this year putting them over the 13,000 mark for the past decade. The back packs will be distributed through 29 agencies and schools throughout the county. Twenty per cent will be given out in Trent Hills.

Council News

A Look Inside Our August 2014 Newsletter Northumberland County Cycling Master Plan on a roll The Northumberland County Cycling Master Plan is rolling ahead. Adopted in June 2012, this 20-year plan sets out guidelines for building and promoting cycling routes across the County in order to increase cycle tourism and, in turn, support local businesses and communities. Over the last two years, important work has been done by the County and member municipalities to lay the foundation for a network of cycling routes throughout Northumberland.

With the work done to date, we are well on our way to creating a safe and effective County-wide cycling network that will make Northumberland a unique cycling destination of choice, said Councillor Gil Brocanier. (Read more about milestones reached, and plans to improve local cycling experiences.)

Election ballots filling up as deadline approaches By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - With one week left until nominations ofďŹ cially close for the October 27 municipal election it looks like voters in HavelockBelmont-Methuen and AsphodelNorwood will have some decisions to make even though there are two positions that, as of press time, will be ďŹ lled by acclamation. Long-time Asphodel-Norwood Mayor Doug Pearcy will be facing former township Deputy-reeve Terry Low who lost by one vote in the last election in a stunning ballot recount that put Joe Crowley into the deputymayor’s seat. Low, who has continued his work with the board of the Otonabee Region Conservation Authority, most recently as chair, will try to unseat Pearcy who has been the township’s mayor since it amalgamated with the former Asphodel Township and before that the reeve of the Village of Norwood. Deputy-mayor Crowley is being challenged by former Norwood Lions Club president Rodger Bonneau. The winner of that seat will also represent the municipality on County Council. There is a full slate of candidates running for the three councillor positions with one incumbent, Roy Millett, throwing his hat into the race once again. Seeking ďŹ rst-time council seats are Bianca Barrett, Royal Ca-

Butter tart fest will sweeten your day By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - The Hastings Amateur Butter Tart contest was a success last year and will be even sweeter the second time out. The second annual amateur competition will fill the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 106 on September 27 and will build on last year’s entertaining inaugural event. Once again there will be three categories: traditional, freestyle and gluten-free with prizes for the top three entries in each category of $50, $25 and $10. Last year a small group of butter tart makers entered the event with butter tart fanciers tasting and adding their own assessments for a people’s choice winner. Three judges under the supervision of local expert Carol Darling of Campbellford graded the three categories. “This is certainly worth doing again because it’s been a lot of fun to organize,” organizer Skye Morrison said during last year’s event. Butter tarts were common in pioneer Canadian cooking and are considered one of the few recipes of genuinely Canadian origin. Last year’s freestyle winner Melissa Gruntz of Corbyville enjoyed herself.

“It’s definitely worthwhile, I encourage more people to do it; young and old can do it,” Gruntz said. “You get better as you go; each batch gets better until you master it.” “You like them sort of custardy, not too gooey,” Carol Darling said. “Eye appeal is the first thing.” Darling is a long-time judge of baking, preserves, knitting, crafts and sewing at fairs across Ontario. The entry fee for participants is $10 plus one dozen tarts at the door; the entry fee includes two tickets for tea and tarts.

Canadian Tire joins Ice Bucket Challenge By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Talk about throwing cold water on an idea and watching it go viral. Powered by social media the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge has gone viral, an idea that has become a social phenomenon and million-dollar fund raiser. Canadian Tire in Campbellford joined the challenge which is global in scope now with its own Ice Bucket Challenge event. “Myself and several of my employees will be participating in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge as we were challenged by the Cobourg Canadian Tire,” explained Aaron Macanuel, Canadian Tire Associate Dealer in Campbellford, prior to the big soakdown last week. The day of the challenge it was one of the hotter days this summer, with temperatures reaching close to 30 degrees, without the humidity. The staff gathered for the challenge wearing their Canadian

Tire uniforms. “There are 13 staff members including myself and my son Wyatt who is five years old,” said Macanuel before the event. His daughter Emily who is three later decided to do it too. “I don’t think he knows what he is volunteering for,” he added laughing. Wyatt however seemed to know just what he had volunteered to do. In fact after it was over he was shouting, “I want to do it again! I want to do it again” None of the staff or Macanuel or his wife Sarah Lewis seemed to be expressing the same sentiment. “I have never heard of anything like this before,” said Macanuel, for whom the challenge had special meaning. “My grandmother died of ALS,” he said quietly. “She suffered for about three years with the disease,” he added.

Macanuel saw what it did first hand. “It’s an unfortunate disease because your body starts shutting down and your mind doesn’t. You are almost trapped in your own body,” he commented. Macanuel was a student at the University of Waterloo at the time and he remembers it like it was yesterday. That’s why he accepted the challenge. “At the end of the day the Ice Bucket Challenge is not about promoting Canadian Tire … Really all we are doing is trying to create awareness about ALS,” he commented. The staff and Macanuel and his wife raised $409.20 in 24 hours before the event. Reports by media online indicate $100 million has been raised in only one month. From business mogul Donald Trump to Mission: Impossible star Tom Cruise who accepted Australian actor Hugh Jackman’s

“The more awareness the better for this important cause” said Aaron Macanuel, Canadian Tire Associate Dealer in Campbellford, prior to the big soakdown last week as he and several of his staff accepted the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge from staff at the Cobourg store. Photo: Sue Dickens

According to the association, on its web site, it leads the way in research, care services, public education, and public policy, giving help and hope to those facing

the disease. The windfall of donations has given the association pause to think about where best to spend the money. “The ALS Association is incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support from people all over the world. We thank you for participating in the Ice Bucket Challenge and for making donations to support our fight against this disease,” it said online.

What’s next? “We are going to challenge the Peterborough North Store on Chemong Road and the Canadian Tire store in Fenelon Falls … they are friends of mine … kind of store rivalry,” said Macanuel with a grin.

DID YOU KNOW... #9 The main tool Realtors use to help homeowners determine the best asking price for their property and to help attract serious Buyers is the Comparative Market Analysis (CMA). The scope and complexity of a CMA depends on the business practice of each Realtor and may indicate the level of effort a Realtor will put forward when selling your home. A comprehensive CMA report compares a subject house with similar homes in age, size, location and features. The CMA is necessary to provide the Seller with enough information for pricing the house, to identify the competition (Active listings) and the house’s Market Value (Sold listings). Expired listings may also provide information for correctly pricing a home. The CMA is fundamental in helping homeowners make an informed decision about how to successfully price and sell their property.

News - Warkworth - A grandmother herself, Carole Ellis is co-chairing the very popular Trent Hills Grannies for Africa Pre-loved Jewellery Sale again this year. “Because I am a grandmother and I can relate to what the grandmothers are going through in Africa,” she told the Trent Hills Independent. The day of the interview she was joined by many other volunteers at her home who were busy sorting and pricing the jewellery. She’s been doing this for about five years. Bonnie Russell is co-chair too and a grandmother as well, although that is not a criterion for joining the organization. “I am a grandmother and I realize what it takes to look after your grandchildren and those women have no resources,” she commented. “I like to give locally and globally. I have a passion about it,” she added, while about 20 volunteers continued sorting downstairs at the Ellis home near Campbellford, a scene repeated several times throughout the year in preparation for the event.

“We’ve been collecting donations probably since the day of the last fund raiser. Today is about sorting and pricing, bagging it and displaying it,” Russell explained. “Carole is very organized and over the years we have learned what works.” The work of the group is inspiring to say the least, but what is even more heartening is the fact that Ellis’s granddaughter Samantha Robson, 16, is helping. She will be joining the volunteers on the day of the sale. For Ellis the reality of what the fund raiser is all about hit home when she travelled to South Africa “on a humanitarian mission,” not once but twice. She wasn’t involved with Grandmothers for Africa at the time but joined the group soon after. “It was just such a life-changing experience to see the kids there that have nothing … but they smile and are happy. They don’t expect a lot. It was just amazing,” she commented. With four grandchildren of her own, she knows how demanding the role can be. “When you have your own grandchildren you love to have them around … but they go home after. These grandmothers The Hastings Village Market offered up a special gift basket treat to a lucky Labour Day weekend visitor. The basket included items from all of the vendors at the Village Market.

in Africa are raising not just one or two grandchildren, they could be raising ten or twelve,” she noted. “And the kids are grieving because of the loss of their parents while the grandmothers are grieving because they lost their children. And they are still trying to cope and raise these kids with practically nothing,” she said. “Grandmothers for Africa and the work the organization does just kind of hits close to your heart,” she added. The sale used to include vendors. That was changed a few years ago when the group realized they had so much jewellery donated they could hold the event without vendors. “We found we had so much stuff we could not display it all,” said Russell.

Another group of graduates help restore the dry stone wall network

News - Campbellford - Another group of graduates is taking home their new-found skills learned at the dry stone wall workshop facilitated by Friends of Ferris Provincial Park (FofF). “I tried it last year and had some fun and I wanted to get some more practice,” said Fraser Raney of Campbellford. He joined the dozen or so students for the two-day event which was a collaboration between FofF, Ontario Parks and the Dry Stone Wall Association of Canada. “It’s a lot of fun,” added Raney, who is also with the Association. Bill Jeffers, director and treasurer of the Dry Stone Wall Association of Canada, was on site for the restoration. “I am an amateur waller. I really just do it for a hobby,” he said. “This is an excellent project.

The plan is to keep going so we have a number of years of wall ahead of us,” he said as he pointed to the portion of the wall being torn down in preparation for the rebuild. “This wall is six feet wide and it’s huge. It is called a consumption wall, more decorative than built to last. We are rebuilding it so it is about two feet wide. We will be using the bigger stones and the smaller stuff is the ‘hearting,’ our version of mortar,” he explained. “The general walling rules say that you put the long part of the stone into the wall, not lengthwise as these were done,” he added. The project is very labour intensive. “There are professional wallers out there and for some reason it seems people take this on as a second career. Others like me have a project at my house I wanted to

do,” he added with a grin. “It’s almost therapeutic when working on a wall by yourself.” This was the sixth workshop and so far two sections of the wall have been restored. Approximately, seven kilometres of dry stone walls can be found at Ferris Park today but they are in trouble. Over the years, the walls have suffered neglect, many have been obscured by vegetation and other sections have been pillaged. “Our short-term goal in 2014 is to continue work on the portion of the wall which can be seen near the playground,” said Carol Robertson, a longtime member of Friends of Ferris who chaired the event. “Our long-term goal is to show visitors that the walls are being taken care of, to help them appreciate this part of our cultural heritage and to encourage everyone to maintain our local

historical past. The more registrants for the workshops, the sooner we reach our goal,” she added. Two Campbellford District High School students were on site as well to record the restoration. Alex Cartwright, 15, and her brother Dawson, 14, set up a camera on a tripod and snapped a photo every ten minutes. Fraser Raney of Campbellford, with the Dry Stone Wall Association of Canada, (carrying the large The finished stone) liked the dry stone wall workshop he attended last year so much that he participated again product will be this year.

Inside Camp X author on the way for reading By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - Author’s nights in Hastings continue to bring remarkable writers to the Hub of the Trent and this fall’s appearance by historian and raconteur Lynn Philip Hodgson continues a fine tradition established by the Friends of the Hastings Library. This time the Friends have partnered with the Hastings Historical Society to welcome the bestselling author of the acclaimed and thrilling Inside Camp X, a riveting telling of the history of the World War II top secret agent training school that was tucked away in unassuming Whitby. Hodgson has been instrumental in elevating the training facility from little-known obscurity to its proper place in the history of World War II espionage and intelligence which had people like Ian Fleming, a naval intelligence officer and the creator of James Bond, training there. “And it’s right on our door

step which is the beauty of it,� says Friends of the Library member Joyce Higgs, who knew nothing about Canada’s role as a World War II secret agent training ground until she read an article about Hodgson and Camp X. Hodgson has spent the past 38 years researching Camp X and is a much sought after speaker who will be at the site of Camp X for Durham Region’s Doors Open celebration where he will be giving guided tours. The Friends of the Library and Historical Society are excited to be following up last year’s appearance by renowned author Jane Urquhart who often uses history in a character-like fashion in her award winning novels. Focusing on the story of Camp X fits in with the Friends attempt to offer a broad spectrum of writers at their readings. The group has also welcomed Drew Hayden Taylor, bond market expert Hank Cunningham and a collective

of Trent Hills and Hastings-based writers. “Every year we’ve been lucky because we’ve had such a diversity of writers,� says Higgs. “History is very important to everyone. So many of the stories out of the war are just not told; whether it’s because they were sworn to secrecy [or] it wasn’t a culture of sharing things like that.� Hodgson has blown the dust away from an intriguing part of Canadian history. “I’m not too sure too many people knew about it,� said Higgs. “It was so important to the allied

News - Norwood - The Asphodel-Norwood Fire Department will look at other options in an effort to renovate the Norwood fire station’s roof. The municipality issued a tender for the replacement of the roof with two bids coming back “considerably more� than budgeted for the project. An earlier report to council had estimated the renovation cost at $65,000. The two recent bids came in at $93,066 and $139,600. That has Fire Chief Daryl Payne looking at two other possible options: the township providing all the material supplies and tendering out the labour costs or contributing to reserves to allow the municipality to complete the project at a future date.

“It has been deteriorating and is in extremely poor condition and is jeopardizing the structural integrity and environmental conditions of the building,� CAO Joe van Koeverden told council at an earlier meeting which outlined plans to move the fire department’s administrative office to the public works building, a move that’s taken place. “The roof could be replaced over the truck bay and some other minor renovations that would extend the life of the building or position it for re-sale,� van Koeverden said at the time. “If you don’t fix the roof it’s going to be a problem for a while,� he told councillors. “This roof is a real problem. If you don’t fix it, it will stay a problem for a while.� The department has done some

“stop gapâ€? work on the roof but that’s just putting off the necessity of repairing the roof. The roof issue had Councillor Rick Kloosterman wondering if it wasn’t time to take another look at moving all Norwood fire hall services to the public works yard “rather than invest more money in that hall which is the wrong spot in my opinion.â€? “We’ve moved all the administration out there; if we could move the rest of it out there we could sell the building and pay for part [of the building costs],â€? Kloosterman suggested. “We have a good area up there with lots of parking ‌ rather than spending $100,000 on a building that’s old. That’s my opinion.â€? The fire department still uses the second storey room at the Norwood station for training,

the design as currently shown,� he stated, but the Cramahe Skate Park Committee, which would have to raise money for the project to proceed, suggested other options be considered to lower the cost. Those options include pre-cast modular which could be 40 per cent less to build than a poured-in-place concrete park or a steel hybrid park, which could be 25 per cent less,

says Chief Payne. Chief Payne says they’ve had a couple of meetings at the public works building but most are still held at the Norwood fire hall. In a report prepared for council by former fire chief and facilities manager Chuck Pedersen on various scenarios involving public buildings in the township it was noted that fire response times would increase if the Norwood fire hall’s trucks were stationed at a new facility at the public works yard. There would be an average of one minute added to firefighter’s driving time to attend a call at the public works site, the report said. There were also concerns about safe access on and off Highway #7. Chief Payne will review the options in more detail and report back to council.

News - Norwood - The Norwood Lions Tuesday night concert series will likely return next summer despite a 2014 season plagued by Mother Nature’s bad weather blues which sometimes discouraged music fans. Just two of this summer’s ten shows took place outside with the remaining concerts shifted to the floor of the Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre. “There were nights when the crowds were disappointing but when it pours rain when people are about to arrive [what can you do],� Lion Ron Scott, a member of the organizing committee and performer with The Donegal Fiddlers Orchestra said. “We are hoping that another year will be better.� “Weather dictates things so much,� he admitted while praising the fact that there was a comfortable nearby indoor venue for entertainers and audiences so that no performances were cancelled. “The two that we had outside were really good crowds.� Concertgoers, sponsors and performers were once again generous in supporting the Lions splashpad project. Scott says donations and sales from the nightly barbecue generated well over $5,000 for the splashpad. “The Lioness selling sweet treats and the Beautification Committee selling sweet corn added to the overall experience for sure,� said Scott. “It’s pretty hard to pry people away from their comfortable [homes]. We hope that we can get people to think automatically about coming out Tuesday nights.� Even though the Lions should have

as Cobourg the Dreamcatchers has made its mark well beyond Norwood, McGriskin noted. “It’s a regional feature and for minor ball to be associated with that and Norwood in general, I think it’s a great program.� Mirielle was surprised by the presentation and said it was “very overwhelming. “I’m so thankful and appreciative of the award,� she said. The Dreamcatchers has become a kind of extended family for Mirielle and her own children and have been very supportive, especially this summer which saw the largest turnout ever. “There seem to be a few new ones each year and each summer the same families are coming back which is very nice to see,� she said. “It’s nice to see how much we’ve grown and to see the support workers and buddies come out because they really enjoy being with the kids.� “I think it’s a really great experience for everyone just to get involved with kids and young adults with special needs. It broadens their horizons.� She’s especially pleased to see

their seventh season. McGriskin started coaching with Glenn eight years ago during his second season with minor ball. The coaching duo guided the girls team to an Ontario Rural Softball Association (ORSA) championship. “I quite enjoyed working with Glenn; he was a different character, I’m kind of hard-nosed and he was more of a pat-on-the-back guy so it was a real nice blend of characters.� When McGriskin was on the NDMSA executive Mirielle approached him about using J.J. Stewart Field for a local Dreamcatchers program. “I brought it to the attention of the executive and it was unanimously voted for,� said McGriskin. “They’ve done a wonderful job, both Glenn and Mirielle, across the years of giving an outlet to these kids and the amount of joy and pleasure it brings them. It’s probably more important than what we’re doing in minor ball when you break it down.� With children and young adults coming from as far away

Sports - Norwood - You don’t create a program as wonderful as the Norwood Dreamcatchers with public recognition in mind but it is more than fitting that Mirielle McArthur and her late husband Glenn are the recipients of Norwood Minor Softball’s prestigious Hall-Fife Award. The award honours the McArthurs for establishing the ball program for special needs children and young adults as well as Glenn’s work as a minor softball coach. Glenn lost his life in a tragic single-vehicle accident while driving to work last year and minor softball president Pat McGriskin regrets the award came a year too late noting that the McArthurs name had come forward the past three or four years when the executive discussed prospective HallFife recipients. “They’re more than worthy with the amount of work and effort it takes to run this program as well as the amount of time Glenn Pat McGriskin of the Norwood Minor Softball Association presents Mirielle spent coaching minor ball,� McArthur with this year’s Hall-Fife Award. The award honours Mirielle and McGriskin told The Trent Hills her late husband Glenn for their outstanding contributions to softball in Independent during the DreamNorwood and the surrounding area.

and poetry by a roster of acclaimed writers that will help raise funds for the Dana Fund which honours the memory of Dana Tkachenko. The fund was established in 2010 at the Haliburton Kawartha Pine Ridge branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association (CAMHA). The book is published by the Hidden Book Press and includes an introduction by local artist Gord Langill along with a preface by Pflug. The cover is designed by Christiane Pflug. The book delves into the “profound complexity of blood and clan.” John B. Lee, poet laureate of Brantford, says this of the book: “none of the mushy sentimentality, false memory and treacly greeting-card nostalgia for these writers-no, these writers are interested in the healing truths we tell when writers are writing their way out of sadness for the sake of love. Herein they tell the entire grumble of the story, sometimes in memoir, sometimes in fiction, sometimes in a poem, but never in the candy-coated dithyrambs that populate the pages of those ‘chicken soup for the soul’ books. This anthology is filled with serious truth, the kind that goes deep and heals from well within the wound.” Continued on page 21

Fibre workshop leaves powerful impression

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.” “You go in there and do it and see what happens and each 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,” Corinne Patterson of Warkworth and Diane Csenar of Hastings show off some of the pieces they made at the Human Marks Csenar said. “I’m right into all of this textile workshop they attended at Lang Pioneer Village Museum. World-renowned Hastings textile artist Dorothy Caldwell led the three-day workshop. Photo: Bill Freeman fabric and stitching now.”

Anthology, book launch a fund raiser for Dana Fund

Continued from page 20

Langill says Dana “inspired many people through her own experiences of struggling against tremendous obstacles and succeeding in creating a stable and fulfilling life for herself and her family. “Dana’s memory,” Langill writes, “is honoured through the Dana Fund, by dedicating donations to the cause of supporting young women and families in transition, experiencing similar challenges, which could benefit from some help along the way.” They Have To Take Them In includes work by internationally published writers as well as writers appearing in print for the first time. The September 11 reading will include some of those writers offering selections from their work. The event runs from 7 to 9 p.m. Admission is $15 with each audience member receiving a copy of They Have to Take Them In which retails at $19.95.

Sports - Campbellford - After grabbing a silver medal at the Canadian Bantam softball championships in Fredericton, New Brunswick, the Campbellford OPG Cougars added a provincial OASA silver medal to their 2014 collection. The Cougars, defending OASA

Bantam A champs, ran up against their nemesis from Wellesley in a make-up game for the Ontario title that was originally supposed to be part of the provincial tourney Campbellford hosted last month. The “A” final game had to be called because of inclement weather and was played in its entirety at a neu-

tral field in Stouffville. The Cougars were stymied by the superb pitching performance of the Wildcats’ Dylan Lybold in a 4 - 0 loss. The Wildcats also got the better of the Cougars in the national final with a see-saw 5 - 4 victory that saw Campbellford jump out to a 3 - 1 lead into the top of the fourth

inning before Wellesley replied with three runs to inch in front. With silver medal showings at the national and provincial championships, the Cougars were the toast of the town and the special guests at the Flourish beef barbecue where they received special certificates from Trent Hills Mayor Hector

Macmillan and were welcomed by Murray and Rose MacLennan. The team was treated to a colourful homecoming when their bus arrived back from Fredericton; the Canadian Tire parking lot was filled with family and fans and they were given a fire truck salute on their national silver medal performance.

The Cougars have now set their sights on winning the Stirling Men’s League championship after polishing off the Bac40 Powersports two games straight. They take on Thompson’s Plumbing in the best-of-five final with game two and three set for September 8 and 10 at 7 p.m.

Saito said. “Eventually I’d like to get field lights,” so rugby, football and soccer games could be played at night, and not just by high school teams. It would make for “a better atmosphere,” he said, and “more parents could come watch their kids play, too.” Although bolted to a concrete pad, the bleachers can be moved to the area behind the school where the graduation ceremony is held ev-

ery June. “Quite often we have to borrow chairs from other schools,” school principal Doug Birch said. The new bleachers will give parents “a better view.” In other news, Saito said the senior football team will play six a side for the second year in a row but the junior squad will play with just 10 players on the field for the first time, and not 12, because of declining enrollment.

That means two fewer players on the line, he said. It’s still not known for certain how many teams Campbellford will face on the gridiron. “I’ve heard so far that it’s Lakefield, us, Norwood, Haliburton and Fenelon Falls,” he said, playing an eight-game schedule of home and away games. The girls’ junior and senior rugby program “is going to be very popular,” with Canada having reached the final of the women’s World Cup final last month, earning silver in a 21 - 9 loss to England. “We’ve had really strong girls teams lately,” Saito said, with the junior rugby team winning the Kawartha championship last season. With student numbers dropping, “we’re in flux just like a lot

of schools,” as to which teams will be put together for different sports, he said. “You can’t run everything

but you want to run stuff that involves a lot of students or a lot of athletes [to] get maximum participation.”

Fans can now sit on bleachers to watch Flames play at home

Sports - Campbellford - Spectators at outdoor games played at Campbellford District High School are no longer limited to sitting on the side of a hill. Kawartha, Pine Ridge District School Board has installed aluminum bleachers along the east side of the football field at a cost of about $12,000. “It just makes the facility look even better,” phys ed teacher Seijo

Sky’s the limit for these acrobatic dogs

News - Norwood - Call it canine hang time! There was certainly plenty of aerial wizardry at the first-ever Hyperflite Skyhoundz local championship hosted by the Hot Diggity Dogs Flyball Club at Norwood District High School over the weekend. Dogs competed in toss and fetch and accuracy and freestyle. It was quite a show. “It amazes me when dogs can do this and people can throw that far,” organizer Natalie Cornel said in a shout-out to the extreme disc stars. In the fetch event, handlers and dogs had one minute and one disc to pile up points based on catches in zones down the field. The dogs had to return the disc to the handler each time. Freestyle lived up to its name; think half-pipe excitement at the Olympics. “It takes a lot of training and focus but it’s wonderful when you see the dogs jumping and catching the discs in the air,” said Cornel. Although there was a small turnout, the show was up against a number of other dog events, Cornel and the club were “very happy” with the event which drew competitors from Barrie, Burlington, Cambridge, and closer to home in Colborne and Peterborough. “I think we’ll do it again but take it up a level,” she said. That would mean hosting a Skyhoundz qualifier. The Norwood meet was a local championship; a qualifier would allow the top two finishers to advance into other championships. “This year the worlds are in Atlanta and right now there are people in Ontario trying to do last-minute qualifiers. Next year if we do a qualifier we will fill this field.” Cornel and the Trenton-area club praised the school board, Norwood Please see “Up” on page B3

Decline in monarch population a concern to Presqu’ile’s citizen scientist By John Campbell

News - Brighton - Monarch butterflies are well on the way to being dethroned. Their numbers have been falling over the past decade, “with significant drops in the population in each of the last three years,� says Chip Taylor, a University of Kansas professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, and founder and director of Monarch Watch. Last winter, the total number of trees and area occupied by monarchs in Mexico’s Oyamel fir forests was less than a hectare, “an all-time low,� he said in newsletter put out by his organization. “This decline has given rise to a great deal of concern about the future of the monarch migration�—a trek the Monarch Butterfly Fund describes as “the most spectacular two-way migration

carried out by an insect,� covering 2,500 miles, and involving several hundred million eastern North America monarch butterflies. Researchers cite several environmental factors to explain the decline in monarch numbers: loss of milkweed its caterpillars need to grow and develop; drought conditions; insecticide and herbicide use, and habitat loss, owing to development and illegal logging. Taylor said the United States government has responded to the growing problem by directing federal agencies “to devote resources to offset the decline in monarchs and pollinators,� and his organization manages various programs to protect the butterfly and milkweed. Much larger projects are needed, such as large-scale habitat restoration,

Taylor said, and tagging monarchs is an important tool “as a way of monitoring their numbers and tracking any shifts in the origins of monarchs that reach Mexico.� Citizen scientist Don Davis has been performing that role for decades at Presqu’ile Provincial Park during its annual Monarchs and Migrants Weekend. The event, which includes bird banding demonstrations, guided walks and children’s programs, celebrated its 30th anniversary last weekend and Davis was there as always to explain migration theories and to provide hands-on experiences in tagging and releasing butterflies. “It’s been good fun,� Davis said of his annual participation in the special Please see “Monarch� on page B9

Pioneer Days a step back to the past By Kate Everson

Events - Ameliasburgh Pioneer Days at Ameliasburgh Historical Museum and Pioneer Village on August 31 was a reminder that old things are sometimes better than new ones. “A lot of people came out today to enjoy the museum,” said curator Janice Hubbs with her husband Rob at the Grimm Sap Shanty in the historical park. There were volunteers at each of the sites giving demonstrations or explaining how

things worked in the good old days. While the 1802 Station Masters from Stockdale performed in the park, Elizabeth Rolston from Belleville and Jan Nightingale from Ameliasburgh were inside the church knitting and spinning wool. “You have to shear the sheep, wash the wool, card it, spin it and then you can knit with it,” explained Jan. “People these days have no concept of time. Pioneers took so long to accomplish anything.”

Elizabeth added that pioneers would normally just have two sets of clothes, one for work and one for church on Sunday. “It was all wool,” she added. “There were no cotton mills yet.” The huge barn loom behind her is not in operation, just for display as it needs some work. Elizabeth said in pioneer days weavers would come in once a year and use the loom in the barn.

“They would live in the barn and were mostly drunk.” “They would live in the barn and were mostly drunk,” she said with a laugh. The ladies are members of the Ameliasburgh Knitters who meet at the town hall every Wednesday from 2 to 4 p.m. There are about 16 in the group now and anyone is welcome to join. “There is no membership fee,” Elizabeth added. “Just a donation to help various projects—and pay for the tea.” She said they are making doll clothes now for the third Christmas in the Village on the December 6, where events take place throughout the village. Meanwhile inside the 1860 log cabin, Jana Busse from Friends of Ameliasburgh was carding wool to make draw strings for clothes. The fire was burning on the hearth and the cabin was warm and cozy for visitors. Outside in the park, Leonard Bedford demonstrated how to make rope the oldfashioned way. A couple of curious children, Monique Vanberkel from Carrying Place and Lily Schaafsma from Stirling helped out. In the Carpenter building, Bjorn Ja-

kobsen from Quinte West demonstrated the old tools. “Many carpentry tools have not changed that much,” he said. “We still have planes, saws and drills.” You just can’t plug them in. The pioneer village also had hot corn on the cob, tea and treats in Amelia’s Tea Room, a blacksmith shop, bee-keeping house, general store, sap shanty, display The 1802 Station Masters from Stockdale entertained in the pioneer village.

TRAVEL

The St. Jacobs Farmers’ Market: fire and recovery

A sign I found in the enclosed market area.

Lifestyles - I’m quite certain that many of my readers have ventured, at some time in the past, to the St. Jacobs Farmers’ Market, located just north of Kitchener and Waterloo. After all, it’s said to be “Canada’s largest yearround farmers’ market,” and our area has many bus tours going to this destination each year. Well, you may remember that its largest building was destroyed by fire last September, on Labour Day, so I decided to take a visit there now, just about a year later, to check out what has happened and what is happening. It was on Monday, September 2, 2013, at about 2 a.m., that firefighters were called to the St. Jacobs Farmers’ Market, where the main two-storey building, housing about 60 vendors, was engulfed in flames. No one was injured in the blaze, but the building was totally destroyed, leaving only a blackened frame. Therefore, some kind of emergency planning had to take place immediately, to accommodate both the vendors and the customers. For the customers, miraculously, not a single market day was missed! The Tuesday market operates only during the summer season, and the outdoor vendors were back in operation again for both the Thursday and Saturday markets that very week. However, this left many of the indoor vendors without a home, so a fund for these vendors who would suffer financial losses was immediately set up by the Kitchener and Waterloo Community Foundation. Some of the food vendors were accommodated, temporarily, in the adjacent Ped-

dler’s Village building, and it was very quickly decided to build a temporary housing structure for all the burnt-out vendors. This temporary facility was actually built and opened before Christmas that same year, and that, indeed, seems to be very fitting for this particular community, amid the barn-raising spirit of its Mennonite inhabitants. The on-site investigation was completed very quickly, and the charred remains of the building were then turned back over to its owners, the Mercedes Corp, and demolition began almost immediately. Work on the temporary housing structure also started very quickly, and the new fabric-on-steel 15,600-squarefoot, dome-shaped building, with both heat and electricity, affectionately referred to as the “Harvest Barn,” was opened in a mere three months. I met with Jenny Shantz, of St. Jacobs Country Tourism, <www.stjacobs.com>, and she told me that this temporary structure may actually play an important role for years to come: “It could last as long as twenty years, so it’s more than just a tent. We’re probably going to continue to use it even after we build the permanent building.” I also talked to Marcus Shantz, President of Mercedes Corp, and he was very pleased with how quickly this replacement building went up. He explained how “the new permanent building will not only help to revive the market but will also actually help the market to expand.” He told me the new building should be completed next spring, and this 34,000-square-foot building will be about 40 per

cent larger than the old space. Much of this will be dedicated to customer space, with wider aisles, etc. However, it will also provide additional space for even more vendors, so Canada’s largest yearround farmers’ market will actually get even larger. The devastating fire did, indeed, hurt certain vendors, and it caused some customers to stay away, too. However, the crowds I experienced there on my recent visit were a clear demonstration that the place is bouncing back and beginning to thrive once again. I was a witness to this new structure just beginning its birth, for the foundation is being installed at this time. Mar-

cus told me this new permanent building will incorporate the heavy wooden beams that characterized the previous structure, “giving it a barn-like esthetic that’s intended as a tribute to the region’s agricultural heritage”. While in St. Jacobs, I stayed right in the heart of the village, at DH Food Inside the newly built temporary structure. & Lodging, a refurbished 1852 country inn, at 1430 King Street North, and while there I was told that its bar top was actually made from the charred remains of one of the Farmers’ Market’s burned COACH & TOURS building’s beams. Like the St. Jacobs Farmers’ Market itself, out of the ashes of the old, the new arises, phoenix-like. Life goes on.

The Good Earth:

How Do I Garden?

Lifestyles - How do I garden? For older folk, that was never a question we had to ask. We grew up at a time when most everyone had a garden of some sort and agriculture was one of our country’s main employers. We had an imbedded “horti”-culture; an intimate understanding of what food was and how to produce it. The same principals were inherently applied to flowers and shrubs. We understood, to a basic extent, the relationship between growing plants and their nutritional and environmental needs. That doesn’t mean we were all gardeners, but, not to sound like a skipping record, we were all in tune. With the invention of the suburbs, as opposed to houses being built on the edge of town, a lot of oldstyle gardening disappeared and a switch to what I call the “facade” of gardening took hold. The focus was to decorate the house and property according to the convention of the day and landscape designs were drawn up in accordance with the fashionable magazines of the day. It was also the dawn of miracle chemicals and fertilisers that let us modify (the most benign word I could use) the cultural environment in a man-

the staircase one step at a time—no riding on an escalator. Here is Dan’s advice for a new gardener: Plant a vegetable garden. It could be in a squared-off plot, a container, or mixed throughout the flowerbeds on your estate. Plant only what you want to eat. Don’t like beets? Don’t plant them. This will give you freedom from all of the “you musts” that you have heard about vegetables. (It will also give you freedom from beets, an added bonus.) Understand that plants are living things with very specific needs. Learn what they like and then determine whether or not the environment on your bit of this good earth can provide those needs—possibly with a little help from you. To everything there is a season. All you have to do is learn the seasons of your estate. There is a time when the bad bugs show up, there is a time feeding is not a good thing, there is a time when weeds invite themselves over, and there is a time phenology is a good word to learn. Simply put, it is a study of what happens in nature in relationship to the climate. Along with reacquainting yourself with the rhythms of nature, you will be able to undertake certain activities at the best time. The result will be that the work you do will happen at the best time for the plant, you will do less work and have more time to enjoy the garden, and you will also learn what not to do. The next abbreviation is IPM (integrated pest management). Control is an illusion, management is a plausible delusion. IPM means you look at your gardens often (monitor), make note of bugs or weeds, determine what would happen if you did nothing, determine your comfort level (threshold) before you intervene and then decide how you will respond to your observations. Can you see how this goes hand in hand with phenology? The final bit of advice: it is your garden not Martha Stewart’s. You can do anything you like that the law, your pocketbook and time permits. Eventually, your style will emerge and people will start to ask you questions.

ner that led us astray from some basic principles. The most important two would be 1. feed the soil, and 2. the right plant in the right place. Whatever we tried to do, there was a product that would allow us to get away with it for a few decades or so. Yes, that comes across as a titch cynical but it is fair to say that the 1950s and 1960s were not the most naturally beneficial years for gardening. So, what brought up the opening question, “How do I garden? The next generation of homeowners are coming into the garden centres and nurseries. They’ve just purchased their first home, at 1234 Ramblingrosebriarpatch Lane in Muskeg Meadows (that’s the subdivision in the old swamp lands south of town) and they’re excited about plants. They have a clear idea of what they want to accomplish but only vague notions on how to do it. These folks are full of energy, they are intelligent, they are curious and they want to know everything before they make a decision. We love ’em. It is a treat to see someone else excited about our passions and they are fun to talk with. Sometimes, forgive me all you knowledgeable folks who have been tilling the soil for eleventyeleven years, it is a pleasure to leave behind all of the in-depth technical stuff and just talk about simple things. (Did you know my co-workers say that simple stuff best describes me, too?) As soon as someone asks that question, then they have already taken the first step. The rest is simply climbing

Monarch population a concern

weekend. He’s tagged as many as 400 butterflies during his visits to Presqu’ile, and as few as 60, as happened last year. “It was very disappointing,” Da-

Elizabeth Kellogg, a volunteer with The Friends of Presqu’ile Park, helped park visitor Marylou Dziuban, of Consecon, identify a bird, during Presqu’ile’s annual Monarchs and Migrants Weekend. Kellogg’s role was demonstrate how birds are banded so they can be tracked. Photo: John Campbell

vis said, but he drew encouragement from the numbers this time around, about 150, which, while “not great … are certainly improving.” Park naturalist David Bree said 2013 “was a disastrous season” for monarchs, “with populations at an all-time low,” but it looks like they “have recovered somewhat.” “The miracle of migration is one of the great nature wonders of the world,” he said in a news release, “and Presqu’ile is one of the great places in the world to experience some part of that miracle.” Davis, who’s chair of the nonprofit Monarch Butterfly Fund, urged people to plant milkweed, the butterfly’s sole food plant, as monarch way stations. “But we’re going to have to think bigger than that,” he said, such as doing less “large-scale mowing” on side roads where it isn’t necessary, to “allow milkweed and other flowering plants to grow to benefit not only the monarchs but other wildlife.” Davis said he’s “concerned” by the decline in the monarch population. “I’m hoping they’re going to bounce back but it’s really too early to tell,” he said.

Originally from the Colborne area and now a Children’s Aid Society of Toronto worker, Davis has been interested in monarchs since he was in high school. What he and other citizen scientists do adds data to a long-term project to save them by indicating survival rates and identifying pathways the butterflies take to Mexico. He’s delighted a southern butterfly, giant swallowtail, is now being sighted in the park. “Presqu’ile offers a real area for protection of wildlife,” Davis said. Celian Vandenheuvel, of Peterborough, was given the opportunity of releasing a monarch after the butterfly had been tagged. Photo: John Campbell

Citizen scientist Don Davis has been a mainstay at the annual Monarchs and Migrants Weekend held at Presqu’ile Provincial Park. He’s chair of the Monarch Butterfly Fund, which is dedicated to fostering the conservation of monarch butterflies in North America. Davis explained how tagging the butterflies helps in efforts to preserve habitats the monarch needs to survive. He recently met Mexico’s minister of environment at a meeting in Yellowknife and was presented with a silk tie emblazoned with monarchs for his conservation work on behalf of the butterfly.

Steam engine highlights pioneer days displays

By Kate Everson

Events - Ameliasburgh - One of the largest steam engines in Canada now stands at the Ameliasburgh Pioneer Museum. The 18-foot 550-horsepower Goldie Corliss flywheel was built in Galt in 1910 and named after its inventor George Henry Corliss. “It stood on three floors at the Hancock Lumber Company in Toronto,” said James Bosma, son of Owen Bosma. “It sawed logs, planed and sanded them for hardwood floors.” The steam engine lay in the grass in Ameliasburgh for 18 years before Owen Bosma spearheaded a project to get it assembled and working again in 1985 to 1988. “I used to play on it when I was a child,” James said. The steam engine has been an active part of the museum ever since, operating during summer activities and fairs. James had a miniature steam engine on display during Pioneer Days on August 31 to demonstrate how a steam engine works. He explained that the fire boils water in a tank to make steam which makes the valves open with a power stroke in each direction. “Every revolution of the flywheel has two power strokes,” he noted. A plaque is dedicated to James Watt who invented the two-stroke steam engine in 1787.

James Bosma demonstrates how steam works in front of the Goldie Corliss Flywheel Steam Engine. The 1909 Case steam tractor does not work any more but is a fine example of the use of steam; it’s shown here by James Bosma. Photo: Kate Everson Photo: Kate Everson

“I kinda like steam,” James said with a smile. “I grew up with it as a child. My father was into old engines.” In the barn at the museum was a 1909 Case 30-horsepower steam tractor that he used to drive around the grounds during activities. Now it needs work and sits idle. The eagle design is prominent on the old tractor a proud symbol of the Case company which still makes farm equipment today.

UR O Y T E L DON’ T SE A E L E L VEHIC N. W O D U O CHAIN Y T. U O T S U B

“This would have been used to plow or bale hay,” James said. He showed where the farmer could keep an eye on the sight glass to let him know there was still water in the boiler. “You have to make sure there is enough water, or it goes boom and a bunch of people are dead,” he added. “This happened in the United States not long ago.”

He said the steam machinery is perfectly safe for a competent operator, “or it’s a ticking time bomb.” “It’s very hot,” he said. “The boiling point is 212 degrees [Fahrenheit].” The tractor has a 200-gallon tank. James operated the tractor in 1995 until it broke. “It wouldn’t pass the safety check now,” he said. The tractor was donated to the mu-

seum by the late Joseph Hugh McKibbon in the 1970s. “Joe did an awesome job setting it up,” James says. He stood on the back of the tractor to show how one person would steer while another would feed the boiler with wood or straw depending on what was available. “In the prairies they used straw left on the fields. We have more trees here,” he said.
