News - Trent Hills - A donation of 100 blankets represents “another piece of the puzzle� for the Trent Hills Fire Department as it works with local nursing and long-term-care homes to meet changes in provincial regulations affecting “vulnerable occupants,� says Fire Chief Tim Blake. “It’s really good timing for us,� he commented, following the donation of Insurance Brokers Association of Ontario blankets by Reg Ward Insurance Services Ltd. last week. The blankets will keep the frail and elderly warm “until we arrange transportation� elsewhere should they ever need to be evacuated, he said. It’s an emergency scenario retirement and nursing homes need to be prepared for as part of the amended Fire Code, which sets deadlines for compliance in areas such as sprinklers, smoke alarms, fire drills and yearly inspections. The regulations also apply to some types of group homes and supportive housing situations. The fire department has a store of blankets but the ones received last week are “a little better� in quality, will provide more warmth, and “give us a standard look,� Blake said. “We’re very thankful.� The large fleece blankets can be used to comfort those in any kind of emergency, including vehicle collisions, Reg Ward’s Brenda Bullock noted.

Fire prevention officer Brad Patfield said there are five sites in Campbellford and Warkworth where inspections have to be done and fire drills witnessed by members of the fire department before the end of the year. “It’s the law now,” Blake said. He applauded the fire prevention committee for having taken on the challenge he had given it. Its members set “performance objectives [and they’re] meeting them.” The new regulations have been needed for years and the provincial government has “finally given us the tools” to ensure facilities with vulnerable occupants have the necessary

fire safety devices and practices in place, including automatic door closers (by January 1, 2016), early warning systems and sprinklers (January 1, 2019). “Time is of the essence” in emergencies, Blake said, and the Fire Marshal’s Office has laid out “really good parameters” for nursing and long-term-care homes to follow. Some have made “good headway” in having the necessary infrastructure installed, and in a recent meeting he had with their representatives, all recognized “they have to do it,” Blake said. The response was “very good,” it was a case of wanting to know how they can implement what needs to be done in a timely and “costeffective manner.”

News - Havelock - HavelockBelmont-Methuen Mayor Ron Gerow says it’s “hard to put into words” the impact Don Cassan has had on the community through his volunteer involvement with the Havelock Lions Club, Community Care and Havelock Minor Hockey. Cassan, one of two living charter members of the Havelock Lions, was presented with the Ontario Senior Achievement Award by Lieutenant-Governor Elizabeth Dowdeswell joining 19 other recipients at a gala ceremony at Queen’s Park. It was an honour that thoroughly surprised the s o o n - t o - b e - 9 0 - y e a r- o l d who is also a life member of Havelock Minor Hockey where he held several
executive positions, including president, and coached. In 1976 he introduced the Don Cassan Award which is presented to players in each division who exemplify sportsmanship and ability. “Whatever the need is in the community Don has been there and continues to be there,” Mayor Gerow said in a recent interview. “My advice to younger folk is to go and talk to Don if you think you’d like to volunteer. He could give you lots of ideas on why [you should],” Gerow said. “It’s mostly because you want to be part of the community. He doesn’t expect any recognition and that speaks volumes about where this volunteering comes from, it comes from the heart. Our community is so much better for all of the

volunteering. We are very fortunate that we have someone like Don who has given back to the community over and over again and still going at it, and that’s the thing that’s so neat and unique.” Cassan retired from 3M at age 55 then embarked on a new career as arena manager for HBM, a position he held for ten years all the while immersing himself in Lions Club activities where the two-time president has been a member for 56 years sharing charter status with Alf Cooper. He also volunteered with Community Care for 20 years as a driver and with Meals on Wheels. “I never thought I was doing anything special,” the modest Cassan said. The gala, which he enjoyed with his second wife Ellie, was a “new experience,” he admitted. “It was beautiful, everything was perfect.” His work with the Lions has been richly satisfying, he says. “I wouldn’t have missed it for the world. It was a good education for me. We’ve got a lot of new members and that’s a good thing.” “Don has definitely shown great leadership,” added Brian Grattan, the township’s deputy-clerk and economic development officer and a 16-year Lions member. Grattan first met Cassan when he was a youth playing for the Havelock Hawks; he would go on to be the organization’s president and looked to Cassan as a role model. “I look at him as a builder of that organization,” he said. The same can be said about Cassan and Cooper and their presence with the Lions. “They are exemplary members that the club is very proud of. They built that organization from the bottom up and it’s a privilege to have them in the club.” Cassan got involved with minor hockey when two young players asked him to coach. There would be no teams if there was no coach. He said yes even though he had never coached before. “It’s for the kids.”

Plenty of skilled trades, technology options, students told By Bill Freeman
News - Hastings - There are plenty of skilled trades and technology career options for students who are beginning to mull over the pathway they’d like to take as they consider high school and the world after secondary education. That was one of the messages Hastings Public School Grade 7 and 8 students heard during a presentation by Nicola MacDonald of Skills Ontario. There are over 150 different skilled trades and thousands of technologies covering a range of fields and college and apprenticeship programs, says MacDonald who did quick surveys of construction, industrial, motive power and service trades and offered a look at hands-on technologies in areas like media arts, robotics, marine survey and forestry. “It’s all about who you are and the type of learning skills that are strong in you,” she said. “Not that any one is better than the other.” There is a shortage of skilled tradespeople and a multiplicity of opportunities for eager youth, says MacDonald, noting that university might not be the best pathway for all students. College programs that offer a balance between classroom study and field work and apprenticeships that allow students to “learn while doing” are exciting options. “Take what your interests are and follow that as part of your career; you can do anything,” she says. “There are so many different interests and things that kids are doing these days. You can actually take the things you enjoy

doing and get paid for it in the future.” MacDonald says they’re winning over hearts and minds in the campaign to encourage young people to consider trades and technology. “The biggest barriers are the stereotypes around the skilled trades. Kids are told that you get your grades and if you’re smart you go to university. What we’re trying to show kids is that there are options.” A lot of people, she says, are “kinesthetic learners,” those who thrive in hands-on, tactile tasks. “A lot of people want to work with their hands and may not even realize it and our goal is to let them know that there are options. Once they see what’s out there and try different things, they’ll see the trades on their own.” Skills Ontario offers summer trades and technology day camps for Grade 7 and 8 students, hosts the Ontario Technology Skills Competition which attracts 2,000 students each year competing in
65 different contests, runs cardboard boat competitions, has a young women’s initiative program and another that engages the aboriginal community. All of these things supplement classroom presentations that MacDonald, who covers five school boards, and her colleagues do. She says the specialist high skills major programs in secondary schools have had an impact. “They’re getting students ahead in the game and giving them steps in the right direction. There are so many things out there in schools now.” Teachers are also doing an “excellent job” at talking to parents about the different options, she says. The “Young Women’s Initiative,” a dinner evening that introduces girls to female mentors, is also doing a good job of encouraging young women to think about skilled trades and technology. “We are making breakthroughs.”
Cause of apartment fire determined
The man was taken to Campbellford Memorial Hospital across the street and then airlifted to Toronto for treatment of “major burns,” Blake said. He has since returned to Campbellford and is now living with his mother. He dropped by the fire station and “thanked the guys” for having rescued him, the fire chief said. “He wouldn’t have got out on his own.” Blake estimated damage from the fire and water to the upstairs unit and the one below was around $150,000. Police released few deCORRECTION NOTICE tails at the time because ONTARIO FORD DEALERS We regret to inform our Ontario customers that the Trent it was unclear what had Hills Indepenent ran the incorrect Ontario Ford Dealers taken place. “Swap Your Ride” ad in their November 13, 2014 issue.

News - Campbellford - A fire that badly damaged an apartment building on Isabella Street in Campbellford in late August “has been ruled not suspicious,” Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake says. The cause was a grease fire which the male tenant tried to put out with water. The splash knocked him backward and he struck his head on a table, Blake said. When firefighters found him, he was “very groggy” and had to be helped out of the building. A rumour he had jumped out a second-storey window is “untrue.”

scene,” Blake said, but “we did the investigation” and determined such speculation had been unfounded. More involved in Movember With twice as many firefighters taking part in Movember this year, the Trent Hills Fire Department will be looking to double what it raised in 2013 for cancer research. About 20 firefighters grew moustaches last year as part of the month-long international campaign, raising $1,600 in total. James Fudge collected the most through pledges and Doug Irvine was the consensus choice for having the most stylish ’stache. Fire Chief Tim Blake estimated at least 40 volunteers will be growing hair on their upper lips, although “there are guys that may have to tape some on, but they’re giving it a go.”
Plenty of treasure to be found in play are enabling them to improve in what they’re doing. One of the things I really love about drama is that it is the ultimate team sport; you really do have to work together.” Even prior to The Wizard of Oz, HPS students showed their flair for the arts, says Teese. “Dancing is very popular here” and so are school assemblies. “Any opportunity they have to act they really jump on it,” Teese said. For a director one of the great satisfactions is standing back and watching as the cast begins to click together on stage and everything falls into rhythm. “We’ve worked very hard to Hastings Public School students rehearse the “desert scene” from the play Treasure Island which they will present next month. get to those moments.” Photo: Bill Freeman
Davidson Bridge work completed By Bill Freeman
News - Westwood - The rehabilitation of the 51-yearold Davidson Bridge on County Road 2 just south of Westwood has been completed and that means no more detours through the hamlet and along the Third Line of Asphodel. The work was done by Stoney Creek-based Carlington Construction Incorporated which was the successful low bid for the project. Carlington submitted a bid of $767,795; Peterborough County budgeted $963,000 for the project which entailed rehabilitating the bridge’s deck, railings and abutments and converting to “semi-integral abutments.” Both a detailed bridge deck condition survey and municipal bridge appraisal done in 2013 identified Davidson Bridge as needing to be rehabilitated. Replacing the bridge entirely was ruled out as unnecessary, costly and would produce significant environmental and traffic impacts. The rehabilitation project will extend the life of the bridge, reduce maintenance costs and also reduce water infiltration because the current deck lacks a water-proofing system, consultants Greer Galloway said in a report to Peterborough County council. Carlington Construction completed the $989,584 Brown’s Bridge rehabilitation project in Havelock-BelmontMethuen southwest of Cordova in 2009 and the Alma Street Bridge reconstruction in Asphodel-Norwood in 2011 which cost $460,916 and included the reconstruc-

tion of the deck ends, the installation of a pre-cast deck beam, new architectural parapet walls, waterproofing and new approach slabs. Traffic through the hamlet of Westwood and along the Third Line of Asphodel was heavy during the construction period and did cause concerns about the safety of pedestrians using the Centre Line through Westwood. Speed limits were reduced and the Peterborough County OPP did do traffic enforcement at times in the affected areas. Asphodel-Norwood council discussed the traffic issue several times in the lead-up to the project and hoped that signage would be placed along Highway 7 encouraging drivers travelling to Hastings to drive east to Norwood then south down County Road 45 rather than cutting south along County Road 38 and then using the detour through Westwood.

It is a play that Teese directed at a previous school with much success and with that in mind thought that the dramatic talents of Hastings students would play to great affect in the show. “I thought it might be fun to do here,” she said following a rehearsal. The show is “not as elaborate” as the Wizard of Oz and will be given one community performance December 17 with two more that day for HPS students and guests from other schools. Teese, like HPS principal Sarah Rogers, is thrilled that drama has taken off at the school. “It’s very exciting,” she says. “Kids are building skills that

Galvanized by last year’s tremendously success production of The Wizard of Oz, the young HPS thespians are back at it this time with a festive season offering of one of the literary world’s most enduring adventure tales, Treasure Island. The show is being directed by teacher Caroline Teese with a cast of junior and intermediate students (Grades 4 to 8) bringing to life the rollicking pirate world of Long John Silver, Billy Bones, Jim Hawkins and Captain Smollett.

costsâ&#x20AC;? for Ontario residents even though energy costs are decreasing in the United States. A recent report issued by the Fraser Institute makes several reasonable recommendations to alleviate Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s energy dilemma They make too much sense for the Liberals to even consider, however. The report seeks a moratorium on all new renewable energy initiatives, pursuit of regulatory and legislative options to reduce operating renewable capacity, keeping available for restart four of 12 coal-burning units and exploring the option of large-scale imports of power from Hydro Quebec to bridge the interval for nuclear power plant refurbishment and careful scrutiny of nuclear refurbishment investment value. If mayor-elect John Tory wants to do something constructive for Toronto taxpayers and everyone else in Ontario he should be speaking to the Wynne government to do something for the citizens instead of the unions. And maybe MPP Lou Rinaldi, in his new parliamentary assistant capacity, could ask for a green energy review that would make it easier for everybody to pay their Hydro bills. But donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hold your breath. Rolly Ethier, Campbellford

unions as long as their favourite party remained in charge to protect their financial power and big pensions. For the most part the media did not hold the Liberal government accountable, many of them agreeing that green energy is a wonderful addition and taxpayers should be willing to shoulder the burden. This despite forcing fixed income seniors barely surviving in the face of rising food and gas costs to pay the highest hydro costs of any jurisdiction in North America. Whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on the right or the left, this green strategy was unconscionably wrong. Experts have repeatedly warned the public exactly why it was wrong from the outset only to have it fall on deaf ears. Now your Hydro bills include a new charge called â&#x20AC;&#x153;global adjustmentâ&#x20AC;? which compensates for the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desire to close the coal-fired plants in favour of continuing into longterm contracts with renewable energy companies.

Dear Editor, The Liberal provincial government, originally under Dalton McGuinty and then under Kathleen Wynne, have intentionally doubled the energy costs for Ontario citizens. In what could be described as a criminal initiative, the Grits enacted the Green Energy Act, forcing taxpayers to subsidize wind turbines and solar activities, knowing full well it couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t possibly provide the needed power generation to keep costs reasonable. Much of the reason the government has been able to escape with relatively little condemnation for the hoax is that most of the mainstream media and their subordinates have simply looked the other way. The unions of this province also deserve a lot of credit for high energy costs for the consumer by helping get the Liberals re-elected come hell or high water despite a string of scandals that cost the taxpayers billions. But that was okay with the
OPINION
A meeting of the minds
Breakthrough on climate change Editorial - When news got out that U.S. President Barack Obama and China’s President Xi Jinping had reached an agreement on climate change, the American blogosphere lit up with negative comments. “The problem is, Obama probably means it,” wrote Jazz Shaw of the major conservative political blog Hot Air, “while China is almost certainly just yanking the world’s collective chain yet again with a bit of lip service as they seek better trade arrangements.” But Jazz Shaw has got it exactly backwards. It’s the United States that cannot be trusted to keep its commitments, because the American political system is mired in a perpetual civil war and at the moment it is the climate-change deniers who have the upper hand. Whereas the Chinese will probably keep their word, because there are no denialists in China and the government is genuinely terrified of climate change. The Obama-Xi deal is not wonderful, but it is the first step in the right direction that the world’s two biggest emitters of carbon dioxide have taken together. Obama promised that the U.S. will reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to at least 26 per cent below the 2005 level by 2025. Xi promised more vaguely that China’s emission would peak by 2030 or earlier (and, by implication, then start to decline). That looks a bit lopsided, of course, but any deal that takes account of current realities is bound to look like that. China is still a poor country, and it is racing to grow its economy fast enough to preserve political stability. That means it has to generate a lot more energy fast. China is installing a great deal of clean power (around half the world’s new solar energy plants last year, for example), but just to keep the lights on it has to go on building lots of fossil-fuel plants as well—and most of them burn the dirtiest fuel, coal. Official policy is driving the number of new coal-fired plants down, however, which is one reason why Xi thinks he can keep his promise that emissions will stop growing by 2030. Obama, by contrast, presides over an economy that is already very rich. The average American citizen still consumes twice as much energy as the average Chinese, but total U.S. energy consumption stopped rising years ago. Making 26 per cent cuts in

American energy use over the next ten years is not a huge challenge; it requires a reduction of only about 2.6 per cent a year. So the American and Chinese commitments in the new deal, while asymmetrical, are not unequal in terms of the political and economic burdens they impose. The real difference lies in the likelihood that the two sides will stick to the deal over the next 10 to 15 years as they have promised. China probably will. The United States probably won’t. The Chinese regime knows what global warming will do to the country if it is not contained. A study commissioned by the World Bank about a decade ago, but never published (quite likely at China’s insistence), concluded that if the average global temperature rises by 2 degrees C, China will lose about 38 per cent of its food production. As in all predictions of this sort, that number may be wrong by five or even ten percentage points, but that doesn’t really matter. Even a 28 per cent loss of food production would mean semi-permanent famine in China. The regime would not survive that, and much of the growth that has been achieved by great sacrifice in the past three decades would be lost. Beijing takes climate change VERY seriously. Even though the regime must also keep the economic growth going if it wishes to survive, it knows that it must start making real concessions on emissions in order to facilitate a global deal. Xi did not set this target of capping Chinese emissions by 2030 without a great deal of discussion and debate within the regime. Having made the promise, he will keep it. So will his successors, at least so long as the Communist Party goes on ruling China. Whereas Obama will be gone in two years, and cannot bind his successors to keep his promise in any way. Indeed, even in the past six years he has never got any legislation on climate change through the Republican-dominated House of Representatives. Instead, he had to resort to issuing executive orders through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to make even modest improvements like raising the fuel efficiency of U.S.-made cars. Now the House has voted to repeal the EPA’s authority to regulate greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act, which would strip even that power from him. The new Republican majority in the Senate will probably do the same. Obama could veto such a law, but all the Republicans have to do is attach it to the budget and they would set up a confrontation that would shut the U.S. government down again. The Chinese know this, of course, but they are so desperate to get matters moving on the climate front that they are willing to take a chance that the deal will survive.

By Terry Bush Editorial - While my wife, Mare, and I may have a difference of opinion when it comes to watching or participating in sports, I think she’s finally coming around, slowly but surely. I used to really enjoy cycling but haven’t had much luck getting motivated in recent years because Mare refuses to go. She doesn’t do hills she says because she can’t shift gears. Considering the woman has driven a standard truck and car for going on 30 years, has had a couple of motorcycles and can find her way around a semi-automatic ATV, her lack of knowledge when it comes to a simple thumb shift on a bicycle is quite baffling. She blames it on her Dutch heritage saying, “There are no hills in Holland,” so I guess somehow that must make some sense in some way to somebody. I can only speak for my half of the population, the part that comes from Mars, not Venus so I think her excuses might really be girlspeak for something else. We went downhill skiing in the eastern townships of Quebec on our honeymoon or more accurately I went downhill skiing while she cried and walked down the hill after falling. That was the end of that adventure. We played squash in Campbellford when we were dating. At least I was playing squash. She got upset and told me I was hitting the ball too hard because it kept hitting the back wall. My squash racket died an early death in the dirt floor basement of our old house. Not that she shuns physical activity. She spent years trying to convince me that aerobics was a sport and I’m still not buying it. Same as I don’t listen when told that walking is a sport even if you walk seven or eight klicks a day. Walking is not a sport unless we’re talking about a speed walking competition. For this guy, a sport must involve winners and losers and most folks I know would take being the former over the latter any day. Sports are about competition. So I now find it rather encouraging and perplexing that Mare will occasionally sit down with me to watch part of a Leafs game. Not that I tune in too often. And at our place the Leafs usually don’t make an appearance on the television until the second or third period after Mare starts getting ready for bed. The reason for her newfound hockey enjoyment definitely isn’t George Stroumboulopoulus. Can I get a, “Bring back Ron McLean as host, please.” As much as I’d like to think otherwise,

the real reason Mare will occasionally sit down and watch a period with me really has nothing to do with sports at all. Fall just doesn’t bring hockey into our home, it also brings the cluster flies. Or to put it in Mare’s giddy parlance, “Look, it’s hockey fly.” She watches the Leafs games so she can watch that darn fly bounce around the screen while laughing her guts out. If the fly’s not there, neither is she unless she wants to fall asleep. Now don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a good hockey fly the same as the next guy. And the one who makes his presence known on our set can certainly skate. I, myself, was in awe a couple of times recently. As the Leafs broke out of their own end and headed to centre ice, hockey fly not only kept up the pace but he actually put them offside a couple of times entering the zone ahead of the puck. Funny how the refs missed that one but considering he wasn’t wearing a sweater, I guess we can let that one slide. And the little guy definitely isn’t a one-way player, he backchecked his ass off and a couple of times flew right past the Sabres as the camera panned back to the Leafs zone. He skates so effortlessly, it often looks like he’s standing still and the ice is moving under him a la Paul Coffey. But still, as a hockey fan, I have to say that while I enjoy seeing my wife take an interest in the game, it does get a little distracting at times. On a couple of occasions, I thought the Leafs had scored only to realize that hockey fly must have been pushed into the net. Bummer for me as I usually try to announce the goals before the play-by-play man. That started a few years back when I was getting more than a little frustrated with Bob Cole and his late calls. And despite the fact that I enjoy Mare’s intermittent company during the game, I feel hockey fly has taken advantage of my situation and I am not feeling the love anymore when two or three of his friends join him on the ice. Aside from the fact that the games have become too confusing to watch, I think the whole situation has gotten out of control and the refs aren’t calling it. But still, if I had a choice between watching hockey fly or George Strombo, I think the fly may get the nod. After all, when hockey fly was perched on George’s forehead the other night, my eyes were drawn to him and not George. That should tell the executives at Rogers something about their current host.

News - Peterborough - The Ministry of Environment has approved the Trent Source Protection Plan. The plan, effective January 1, 2015, sets out policies to protect the sources for 46 municipal drinking water systems located within the Trent Conservation Coalition Source Protection Region. The plan is a requirement of Ontario’s Clean Water Act which was passed in response to the province’s inquiry following the Walkerton drinking water tragedy. The Trent Source Protection Plan was developed over several years and is based
Trent source water protection plan approved with our municipal partners and the province has enabled us to produce these comprehensive documents which will serve to reduce risk to municipal drinking water systems through the introduction of policies designed to protect sources of municipal water supplies. “The process is collaborative and science-based and will provide ongoing protection for municipal sources of drinking water by minimizing the risks to water supplies from land use activities,” Hunt said. “We look forward to working with

our partners into the future in our efforts to protect existing and future sources of drinking water.” The Otonabee-Peterborough Source Protection Area (O-P SPA) is one of five source protection areas in the Trent Conservation Coalition covering approximately 3,365 square kilometres and includes portions of 12 municipalities. The municipal drinking water systems in the O-P SPA include three surface water systems, Peterborough, Lakefield and Hastings, and nine groundwater systems: Norwood, Millbrook, Fraserville (planned), Keene Heights Subdivision, Crystal Springs, Buckhorn Lake Estates, Pinewood, Alpine Village and Birchpoint Estates. “Staff at the Otonabee Region Conservation are working with municipalities in the protection area to ensure a smooth transition to the implementation phase of the source protection planning process and will provide ongoing support to assist municipalities in meeting their responsibilities under the Clean Water Act,” says Andy Mitchell, chairs of both Otonabee Conservation (ORCA) and the OtonabeePeterborough Source Protection Authority. “ORCA has entered into agreements with seven municipalities to provide assistance with municipal implementation and enforcement of the Trent Source Protection Plan,” says ORCA Chief Administrative Officer Dan Marinigh. Those municipalities include the Asphodel-Norwood, Cavan Monaghan, DouroDummer, Otonabee-South Monaghan, Selwyn, Trent Lakes and Peterborough.

Everyone is invited to attend the event which will include public health nurse Diane Lockman and medical officer of health Dr. Rosana Pellizzari of the Peterborough County-City Health Unit. The presentation will cover birth control, sexually transmitted infections, vaccines and healthy relationships. The talk will be “fun and participatory to make it easier to discuss what can be a touchy subject,” says public health nurse Leisa Baker. “Talking with your teen about sex can be a challenge and we want parents to know there’s lots of support out there for them,” says Dr. Pellizzari. “We hope to make this evening fun and interactive so parents gain knowledge and approaches they need to make sexuality conversations feel more natural.” The free presentation takes place November 25 at the Peterborough Public Library from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Light refreshments will be provided. For more information call 705-743-1000.

It is an activity that brings the News - Havelock - Grade 8 youngsters in far-away lands students at Havelock Belmont after packing up shoe boxes realities of global poverty and need Public School will leave their for this year’s Operation into Brenda Leeming’s classroom and her students have embraced the effort of collecting goodies that will bring some Christmas cheer to children whose lives are so much different from those living in HBM. By Bill Freeman
“The students use this very worthwhile charity as a means of not only understanding the importance of giving back to the global community but also as an opportunity to garner marks in the curriculum areas of media literacy, oral communication as well as mathematics,” says Leeming, in her final year of teaching.
The class made a shopping trip to The Amazing Dollar Store on Ottawa Street and filled nine boxes with a “plethora of goodies” for children two to 14 years of age. In all, staff and students at HBPS filled 22 shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. “It was indeed a worthwhile venture and an awesome way for
everyone involved to get into the spirit of giving as the season of Christmas approaches,” Leeming said. In 2013, there were 664,066 gift boxes collected in Canada; worldwide, Operation Christmas Child distributed over 10 million boxes in more than 100 countries.

News - Campbellford - The recent tragic deaths of Corporal Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent were not far from the minds of the students and special guests at this year’s Remembrance Day assembly at Campbellford District High School (CDHS). “In the wake of recent tragic events involving Canadian Armed Forces members that took place in St-Jean-surRichelieu and at the National War Memorial, it is important that we all reflect on the sacrifices made by our military personnel serving every day, whether it be at home or abroad. Let us stand in solidarity with them as they continue to fight for our freedom and democratic rights,” said CAF member Sub-Lieutenant Brent Laver, Royal Canadian Navy, a uniformed reservist, who was the special guest speaker. He is also a law teacher at the school. He was there as part of a general assembly held on Remembrance Day, after which students walked to the Cenotaph to pay their respects. “I’d like to talk to you today about why it is so important to remember the sacrifices made by the men and women of our nation’s military over the years,” said Laver. He talked about the more than half a million Canadians who served in Canada’s military, noting one in every ten was killed, while more than one in four was wounded. “For CDHS that would mean roughly 50 of your peers killed and 125 badly wounded or disfigured,” he said. He also talked about Canada’s veterans and the importance of Veterans’ Week and the importance of remembering emphasizing the phrase “Lest We Forget” throughout his speech.
Students at CDHS, Jill Ruisendaal and Brian Cunningham, spoke at their Remembrance Day assembly about their trip to France with other students to mark the 70th anniversary of D-Day, and talked about how the deaths on home soil of Corporal Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, impacted them.

Laver is also a go over to France and we got to see the teacher at the school. Photo: Sue Dickens
“Lest We Forget is a warning of the danger in forgetting lessons learned during the First World War and all of the struggles and conflicts since,” he told the students. “It is a warning for us to keep a careful watch over our hard-won freedoms, a warning to be prepared to defend our freedoms … to avoid suffering the same deadly consequences yet again,” he added. “This is why Canada is marking the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the First World War this year. Because, even though no vet-
erans of that war remain alive today, we must never forget the terrible price they paid for the freedoms we enjoy today.” For students Brian Cunningham and Jill Ruisendaal, who spoke about the trip to France they made with other students, to mark the 70th anniversary of D-Day, the deaths on home soil had an impact. “It definitely had an impact as their deaths happened on Canadian soil. The kids here are more aware because of this and it happened so close

actual fighting ground,” she added. “I think Remembrance Day is an important day because you remember all the soldiers’ lives lost trying to protect our freedom. It’s important to know what they sacrificed for us,” said Cunningham. CDHS principal Doug Birch also spoke to the students about the deaths of Cirillo and Vincent. “Very recently Canada lost two of its soldiers in circumstances that can at best be described as tragic,” he said. “Many of you, or your friends, will likely have family members either immediate or in the past that have served in our country and for whom you have special thoughts and a reason to remember.”

lar spot during the display,” adds Tim Holt, a retired Campbellford District High School art teacher who has made several Nativity scenes over the years. This year he’s created a new section of intricate 3-D paper creches. Madeleine Charlesworth, Debbie Holt’s mother, was the original contributor to the international display area, with a Chinese camphor wood triptych, purchased from a local fair trade co-op that ensures artisans get a fair price for their work. Interest in this type of display has been growing each year, with people lending Nativities from coun-
tries such as Afghanistan, Israel, China, and Kenya, made of materials that include felt, cork, olive wood, wire, and handmade glass beads. The three-day display concludes with a musical presentation, “Let The Season In!” December 7 at 6 p.m. Admission is free, with donations to the food bank welcome. Light refreshments, including hot chocolate, apple cider, and treats will be provided. Nativities from previous years are welcome back, along with new contributions.

Hustle comes an end, OR bustle continues to rise By John Campbell
News - Campbellford - The Hilker Hustle has come to a halt. Brad Hilker, CEO and president of Campbellford Memorial Hospital, told board members he had achieved
his target of completing more than 500 kilometres in various runs throughout Ontario this year. He was following in the footsteps of Dr. Joe Barbero who entered 13 halfmarathons in 2013 in a bid to raise

from Maine, who will begin work at the hospital next summer and be mentored by Sue-Chue-Lam during the year they will work together, Raine said. “That was part of our succession plan and Dr. Sue has been instrumental in making sure this is the right fit for the community,” she said, adding there will be “a little bit more variety of general surgery” when the transition is completed. Raine also noted that use of the operating room, which had been on the decline more than a year
ago, has been steadily rising, with requests pouring in from out-of-town specialists wanting to book times for operations. “We’ve been really lucky, we’re getting to the point now that when someone asks, looking for privileges, [staff] really have to sit down and look at the bookings in the OR, … and see where to fit them in,” she said. Whereas a year-and-half ago, “we would say, sure, just come and we’ll find a space. We’re quite proud of all the recruiting … that’s going on.”
Holiday season Angels of Care fund raiser
Vehicles will be sold on an “AS IS WHERE IS BASIS” Bids will be received on a Specified Bid Form that can be obtained from the Municipal Office or from the Municipal Website www.hbmtwp.ca.

$13,000 for the purchase of hospital equipment. Hilker set a more modest goal of $2,000. Although he ran the distance he planned, there was still “a little bit of a gap” in his fund raising of “a few hundred dollars” that remained to be closed so he was still taking pledges online, at <www.http://givetocmh. ca>. Chief nursing officer Jan Raine reported a general surgeon has been found to take the place of Dr. Jerry Sue-Chue-Lam when he retires “eventually.” He’s Dr. Samar Sbayi

TD Canada Trust plans to Don’t need to be a superhero close branch to be a super friend to those in need
The TD Canada Trust Bank on Forsythe Street at Highway 7 in Marmora is planning to close its doors in spring/summer of 2015. The town of Marmora has not been without a banking institution since 1908. “100 Years of Banking in Marmora” was celebrated in 2008.
News - Marmora - Meaghan Thomas, Manager, Corporate and Public Affairs of the TD Canada Trust Head Office, has advised that the branch in Marmora will indeed be transferring its operation to 40 Ottawa Street West in Havelock next year. “After a thorough business review, we have made the difficult decision to move our branch in Marmora, Ontario, to Havelock, Ontario.” “In terms of the merger, the decision was made to move the branch to Havelock based on current customer traffic. However customers can bank at whichever branch they prefer, whether it’s Madoc or Havelock.” “Customers will be able to continue to access accounts through Green Machine ATM, phone and Internet banking, or any other branch. TD Canada Trust will work individually with customers and businesses to address their specific concerns.” Ms. Thomas advised that notification letters will be sent to customers later this month to inform them about the merger. This will be followed by a planned information session to talk about the merger, and how the bank will be able to assist clients with their ongoing banking needs. Telephone and Internet banking are options, but many in the older category of consumer or less able economically, might not find it as convenient to use those avenues. The two current ATM machines available in Marmora other than the bank itself are not TD based, so each transaction is charged extra. The ATM at the Valu Mart is not bank based at all, so there is an additional surcharge for its use no matter what your banking preference. The ATM at the Mac’s Convenience Store is CIBC based, so TD Canada Trust customers have to pay an additional charge there as well. Marmora and area businesses who presently deal with TD Canada
Trust in Marmora will find themselves having to travel a distance to make their daily deposits or other daily/ weekly transactions. Another statement from TD Canada Trust Head Office reads, “Branch mergers are never an easy decision, and it was after considering a number of factors that we arrived at this decision after careful business evaluation.” Marmora’s banking history
began in 1908, with the establishment of a bank by A. W. Carscallen at 52 Forsythe Street, now the location of the Marmora Historical Society. This was followed by the Sovereign Bank, and then in 1951, the Toronto Dominion Bank was opened in the “new” building at the corner of Forsythe Street and Highway 7. The TD Bank in Marmora is slated to close some time during the spring/ summer of 2015.
Batman (Campbellford District High School Grade 12 student Nick Carson) and Superman (teacher Brian Wood) made an appearance at a special assembly last week urging students to support efforts to help the homeless and others in dire circumstances. The school’s Justice League held its second “Cold Hands, Warm Hands” event November 19 at the corner of Front and Bridge Streets in Campbellford. Students accepted donations of food, clothing and money to the local food bank and Salvation Army. Photo: John Campbell

occurrence, it’s never going to turn out well, it’s already too late, it’s already a tragedy,” Stutt said. The worst was when he was summoned to recover the bodies of five men who had drowned when their boat sank in Lake Huron. “It was just a bizarre circumstance to have five people go like that, that quickly,” he said. Even more heart-rending were the deaths of children, who fell into wells or cisterns. One he remembers vividly was of a child who went missing from a village in southwestern Ontario. The father ruled out the well on the property, saying the water was only two inches deep. The military was called in to assist in a thorough search of the area that lasted days. When the search yielded nothing, they went back and checked the well and found the boy; the well had about eight feet of water in it, Stutt said. On another occasion, he was called upon to recover the bodies of two men who had driven six miles onto the ice on Lake St. Clair to go fishing only to have their car plunge through the ice. Stutt and another diver entered the freezing water and found themselves in total darkness—“you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face”—but they managed to locate the car with the door open. “We never did find them,” he said. Their bodies were found that summer by a private diving club. “They’re all tragic but it was part of the turf, it just went along with the job,” Stutt said. “I was proud of being a police officer, [and] I would do it again.” Memories of those early years came to mind when he recently received word the OPP was celebrating the unit’s 50th anniversary by issuing special coins commemorating the milestone, and that he as a former member would be receiving one. “It’s nice to be recognized,” he said. “It’s a service that we provided and I’m glad [to have been a] part of it.” There was “no room for panic in that role, absolutely none,” he said of his

diving in all sorts of conditions. “That’s a one-way trip if you panic under those circumstances.” Stutt recalled only instance where his life was at peril, and it happened while he was off-duty, when he and a friend were exploring a wreck in Georgian Bay at Tobermory. Water began leaking into his air hose 40 feet down and he “shot to the surface” until he remembered at the last second the boat was overhead and he arched his back to avoid colliding with it. If he had hit it head on, “we wouldn’t be here talking to you, it would have knocked me silly,” he said. Stutt estimates he made at least 25 police dives before leaving the unit in 1970. He remained with the OPP until his retirement after 30 years of service. He and his wife Catherine moved to their home in Hilton in 1999. Stutt keeps busy working with wood, cherry and walnut being his favourites, making furniture, urns, clocks, blanket boxes, shelves, and other pieces.
Insulin pump helping student cope with Type 1 diabetes

to Belleville General Hospital where blood tests revealed his blood sugar levels were â&#x20AC;&#x153;extremely high.â&#x20AC;? Jaimen had Type 1 diabetes, a non-preventable autoimmune disease that stops the pancreas from producing insulin. He remained at the hospital for a week and made weekly trips after that, during which learned to give himself insulin injections five to seven times a day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When he was first diagnosed they told us itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only going to take a year and then youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to regulate it,â&#x20AC;? Carley said. The entire family completely switched its diet to bring it more in line with Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Food Guide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re eating very healthy in our house,â&#x20AC;? Carley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very hard because most of my favourite foods have a lot of carbohydrates in them,â&#x20AC;? Jaimen said. But his was â&#x20AC;&#x153;such an aggressive formâ&#x20AC;? of Type 1 diabetes, that the hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best efforts to bring the disease under control proved unsuccessful and he kept getting sick, missing 65 days of school and going to the hospital a dozen times last year. So last month at Sick Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital in Toronto Jaimen was outfitted with a portable $7,000 insulin pump that delivers a steady dosage of insulin into his system. Additional insulin is administered before every meal and Jaimen has to check his blood every

His blood sugar level also has to be checked at 2 a.m. because it can drop â&#x20AC;&#x153;really lowâ&#x20AC;? in the middle of the night and â&#x20AC;&#x153;send him into a coma.â&#x20AC;? she said. If the reading is low, Jaimen is given a juice box to drink. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nerve-wracking as a parent,â&#x20AC;? Davis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a minute that goes by that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not thinking howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jaimen doing.â&#x20AC;? But her son has been able to remain active, playing ball hockey and house league hockey at the peewee level, riding his bike, snowboarding and going hunting. The Davis family received funding for the purchase of the insulin pump but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsible for buying many of the supplies that are needed. There was also the expense of travelling back and forth to Sick Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. They were helped out with their costs last summer by a special benefit barbecue organized by friends and family, which included bands playing and draws being held for prizes donated by local businesses and organizations. They also received proceeds from a fishing derby. The support they were given was â&#x20AC;&#x153;unbelievable,â&#x20AC;? Carley said. Keeping Jaimenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blood sugar levels under control â&#x20AC;&#x153;is a challenge â&#x20AC;Ś thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much involved,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything in moderation, that is the key.â&#x20AC;?

News - Brighton - When her eight-yearold son Jaimen began drinking an excessive amount of waterâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;24 bottles in one dayâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; Carley Davis thought it was â&#x20AC;&#x153;because it was so hot out.â&#x20AC;? That was two summers ago.

World War II veteran receives special honour from French government
News - Brighton - November 11, 2014, was a very special day for a Brighton resident who fought in World War II and was one of 14,000 Canadian soldiers to storm the Normandy beaches on DDay. After taking part in the Remembrance Day service at Memorial Park, Wilf Pound, 94, was officially awarded the rank of Knight of the French National Order of the Legion of Honour in a special noon-hour ceremony held at Branch 100 of the Royal Canadian Legion. The award expressed the government’s “profound gratitude” for his “contribution to the combat that led to the liberation” of France from German occupying forces, said its ambassador to Canada, Philippe Zeller, in a letter read out by Colonel Patrick Kelly, former commanding officer of the Cameron Highlanders in which Pound once served. And in another special tribute, held at the Legion that night, Northumberland-
Quinte West MP Rick Norlock presented Pound with a service bar and pin recognizing his 75 years as a member of the local branch, where he served as president in 1953. Pound accepted the Légion d’Honneur medal of distinction from Kelly on behalf of himself, his family “and the boys that did not come back” from the war. They and others who have since died “without this recognition” occupy a special place in his heart, but her grandfather also holds dear those who have fought in any war, or are “still fighting to protect us, to keep peace,” said his granddaughter, Paige Paz. “Grampa, we are all very proud of you.” Pound, the subject of a special profile that appeared in the November 8 issue of the Brighton Independent, was with the Ottawa regiment when it landed on Juno Beach June 6, 1944, and proceeded to make its way inland. His job as a truck driver was to de-

Mayor Rodney Cooney and Councillors Bob Mullin, Grant Hagerman and Jeremy Solmes will all be returning
when the new council is installed next month and all had kind words for their colleague, Shier, who described his term as deputy-mayor as “an honour.” Along with thanking residents, fellow councillors and staff, Shier praised the efforts of all those who work for the municipality. “I enjoyed working with the staff here,” he noted, adding, “they made me look pretty good some days.”

liver ammunition, rations and supplies to the front lines, “a very, very precarious job” and “one of the most dangerous things to do,” Legion first vice-president Ian Douglas told the 130 people who attended the dinner. Douglas narrated a slide presentation of Pound’s military career and subsequent life as a civilian, which included his being a barber before joining the post office in 1952. He became postmaster in 1957 and held the position until his retirement in 1978. “The Legion of Honour is a decoration that not many people around the world or in France for that matter have the privilege of wearing,” said Norlock, who expressed his government’s own “tremendous gratitude” for the service Pound has rendered. “You make us all not only proud but we are humbled by your presence here today,” he said. Similar congratulations were also offered by MPP Lou Rinaldi and Brighton Mayor Mark Walas. One anecdote related by Douglas was of Pound using the enamel saucer issued soldiers to write a message to his family and tossing it out the window of his train as it sped through Brighton en route from Saint John to Niagara-on-the-Lake. Soldiers weren’t allowed to tell anyone where they were going but Pound decided to let his family know all was well with him and the other Brighton recruits and that he hoped to see them soon. “Legend tells us it barely missed the station master who found it in the grass and took it to Wilf’s mother,” Douglas said. The plate was on display at the back of the hall. Pound said the slide presentation put together by Legion member Dave Wyndham brought tears to his eyes, and at the end of the evening, he said he was “amazed and overwhelmed” by what had been “a very beautiful day” for him.

Shier was met by a round of applause from the gallery, which included councillors’ families and supporters, before Mayor Cooney presented flowers to Nancy Shier, Shirley Mullin and Lisa Cooney and acknowledging their support, both past and present. In his address, Cooney also thanked staff for their time and dedication, singling out several individuals for specific contributions. Among them was longtime municipal employee Howard Jeffs who recently announced his intention to leave the position of landfill operator. Newly elected Councillor Dean Graff, who will replace Shier, was also in attendance for the meeting. In its regular business, council approved the minutes of recent committee meetings and reviewed completed projects as well as those in progress and in the planning stages. Remedial work is required on the municipality’s salt domes with the Stirling structure requiring new shingles and repairs needed in Spring Brook. Cooney anticipates the reshingling will cost $40,000 to $50,000 and the early replacement is the result, he says, of the wrong shingles being used in 2006. Council also agreed to reduce the speed limit from 80 to 50 kilometres an hour on the first kilometre of St. Mark’s Road and later passed a bylaw to that effect. Continued on page 23

NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN
PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE #1 Northumberland County has completed the First Phase of the long-range strategic Transportation Master Plan. Since the commencement of the study in May 2014, the project team has worked to assess the existing transportation conditions in the County, prepared a summary of relevant policies and plans, and undertaken an initial investigation of current trends and opportunities. Because of the significant long-term social and economic effects transportation management solutions could have on local residents, stakeholders and interest groups, the project team is looking to the public and stakeholder representatives to provide their input on initial study outcomes as well as future opportunities and improvements. Information will be presented on November 24th, 27th and December 1st at the first round of Public Information Center (PIC) / open houses at the locations indicated below.

Now if something happens and the Foundation has to relocate, much of their material is available online thanks to countless hours of scanning and uploading by Philpot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once I had 4,000 or 5,000 scans I started thinking we should be posting this on Facebook and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where this all started,â&#x20AC;? she explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It got us a lot of attention. All of a sudden a lot of people were talking about the Marmora Historical Foundation â&#x20AC;Ś and then I started to find it too limiting and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when the idea of a web site came into play, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;cause we have stuff not just photos; we also have stories,â&#x20AC;? she added. And so Bennett designed the web site so that with the click of mouse or a touch of the pad on a laptop visitors can contribute their own stories to the mix of historic memorabilia. In fact her own grandfather, Gordon Bennett, was one of the original directors of the Foundation which was formed back in the early 1980s. It was Philpotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband Andre, an author and historian along with Bennett and the Reverend Armstrong who started the Foundation. As curator, Jones has the enviable job of checking out donations to the Foundation which can be set up at the office and, if possible, scanned and uploaded to the site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I decide what content is going up in

Poverty Challenge gives Loyalist students new perspective of the challenges that come with navigating our social system. They had to file real paperwork and some had to carry around dolls, representing the number of children their character cares for. Student Chantal McDougall said the experience gave her a much greater understanding of the challenges faced by people living in poverty. She was assigned a character who was a single mother to four children. While this person was educated, she was unemployed and receiving income through Ontario Works. One of McDougall’s challenges was to speak to people at the Ontario Works office and find a way they could keep her hydro on, as it was at risk of being turned off. She also had to find a way to pay for glasses for her child. Not surprisingly, she didn’t meet all those challenges by the end of the day, as some of the agencies she needed to visit closed early. “It was a very real experience and the frustrations were real,” said McDougall. “It’s not necessarily the system’s fault, but the demand is just so high. I felt like I was just a number.” Lisa Shunock, a co-ordinator in the child and youth worker program, helped put on

News - Belleville - Bum, low-life and lazy. These were among the words some Loyalist College students came up with in a morning exercise in which they were asked to list words they associate with people living in poverty. Later in the day, the exercise was repeated and new words that came up included strong, courageous and brave. That’s the power of Poverty Challenge, a day-long activity in which about 150 Loyalist child and youth worker students participated on campus recently. About 75 second-year students were each given a piece of paper which outlined a character they would play for a day and a set of challenges they would have to overcome. Those challenges required them to visit fictional service agencies that were set up around the college and operated by thirdyear students. The second years had to fill out complex paperwork at various different places and make it to all of them in a limited time. The activity is meant to give students a realistic experience on what it’s like to be poor for a day and a greater awareness

the exercise, along with fellow faculty member Rosie Reid. Shunock said she was pleased that the exercise led to a shift in the students’ perspective on poverty. “I love this day because you can firmly see the empathy being raised,” she said. “Our students are going to become more caring and less judgmental as they become service providers.” Shunock said this year’s event marked the second time Loyalist had conducted a Poverty Challenge for child and youth worker students. The activity was modelled after a similar activity hosted by the United Way in Kingston. It’s a massive exercise that requires significant planning and co-operation from staff at several local social agencies,
who work with Loyalist faculty to ensure the experiences are realistic. At the end, students can write comments on a “graffiti” mural, which allows them to creatively vent frustrations or share their thoughts. A “think-tank” exercise is also held, Shunock said, so the students can share ideas on how our social services system can be improved for the clients it serves. Students can also meet the “poverty experts” whose lives they were mimicking. McDougall said she was surprised to learn that her character’s challenges were based on the challenges faced by a real person in the community. She was grateful for the opportunity to meet that person afterwards. “[The Poverty Challenge] gives you a very real per-

Sports - Quinte West - After nine straight wins, the Trenton Golden Hawks were surprised Friday night by the strength of their opponents, the Kingston Voyageurs. Both teams kept the game exciting with a fierce competitive spirit. After a 3 - 3 tie, despite two overtimes, the Hawks were proud to say they still haven’t lost a game.
With 568 in attendance at the Duncan McDonald Memorial Arena in Trenton, the game provided a total of two hours and 26 minutes of exciting play. In the first period Kevin Lavoie scored assisted by Danny Liscio and Tyler Donaldson. In the second period Robert Smythe potted one for Trenton with helpers coming from Kevin Lavoie and Nick Santoro. In period three it was
Hunter Fargey on a powerplay bulging the twine with assists from Danny Liscio and Luke Hincenbergs. Trenton stars of the night were Kevin Lavoie and Danny Liscio. The next game for the Hawks in Trenton will be Friday, November 28, against the Orangeville Flyers and Sunday, November 30, against the Hamilton Red Wings.

Norwood (0-6-0) had to fend off 26-shot barrages in the first and third periods and still emerged deadlocked at 4 - 4 after 40 minutes and actually led the game 4 - 3 with seven minutes left in the second frame. They had no answer for the ever-dangerous MacKellar who scored the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first two goals and accounted for two more in the third to ice the win for Norwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s archrivals.

del-Norwood Community Centre and the Vipers and their fans helped raise nearly $400 for the Canadian Cancer Society. Vipers veteran Jordan Freeland and his wife Lindsay have welcomed the arrival of their lovely daughter Hudson. Norwood hosts the first place Stoney Creek Generals (5-3-0) November 23 at the A-N Centre. The new Vipersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; goalie played his junior hockey in the QuĂŠbec Junior Hockey League
playing with Valleyfield and Longueil College-Francais. He played two games with the Montreal Juniors of the QMHL. He joined the Vipers team after a stint in the Southern Professional Hockey League with the Louisiana Ice Gators. McNevan is a Vipers veteran who was a big part of the team that reached the league championship final in 2011 against the Dundas Real McCoys, a series that went seven games.
Rebels send message to frontrunners by splitting weekend series By John Campbell
Sports - Campbellford The Rebels proved theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a match for the top team in the Empire B Junior C Hockey League last weekend, defeating the Port Hope Panthers 4 - 1 at home Saturday and then erasing a 3 - 1 deficit Sunday before losing 4 - 3 in overtime at Port Hope. Jeremiah Dohertyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unassisted power play goal at 13:22 of the third period knotted the score. Mike Smith got the winner for the Panthers 3:24 into the extra session, beating Cole Mahoney with his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 35th shot of the contest. Campbellford managed only 23 in reply. Grant Fry cut the Panthersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lead in half with his marker at 16:25 of the first, only to have the home team restore its two-goal margin a minute later. Andrew Doxtator had the other Campbellford goal. Koel Newton recorded two assists. Port Hope opened the
scoring on a power play midway through the second period in Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s match. Doherty tied it and added an empty netter in the third when Newton scored the eventual winner at 2:41 and Travis Bennett added an insurance goal less than four minutes later. Mahoney stopped 38 of 39 shots. Campbellford directed 31 in the other direction. Doherty is now tied for second in league scoring, with 14 goals and nine assists, three points behind Port Hopeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jacob Spicer (six goals, 20 assists) Port Hope (14-2-1) now has 29 points, six more than the Napanee Raiders and ten up on the Rebels (9-7-1), who have sole possession of third place. Campbellford will hope to pull closer when it travels to Napanee November 18 and then plays two more on the weekend, at home against the Picton Pirates Saturday at 7:30 p.m. and at Amherstview Sunday.

Strong weekend for Midget AE Hornets
By Bill Freeman
Sports - Norwood - The Norwood Midget AE Hornets picked up their fourth tie in five games but also edged the Tweed Hawks 4 - 3 before falling 3 - 1 to the Ennismore Eagles in league action over the weekend. The tie was a 3 - 3 saw-off with the Campbellford Colts, a result the two teams have settled for in the past. The 4 - 3 win over the Hawks was the Hornets most complete game of the season
with the team showing real resilience in bouncing back from two-goal and one-goal deficits and winning with a dominant third period that produced two goals and none against. They also killed off a two-man penalty near the end of the game and faced six Tweed skaters after the goalie was pulled for an additional attacker. Goalie Jake Krabbe was outstanding in defending the lead. Cody Barrons, coming back after a five-
week layoff with a knee injury, had the hot stick firing in a hat trick for Norwood with Brandon Kerber adding the other Hornets goal unassisted. Picking up two helpers each were Barrons and Jacob MacDonald with single assists going to Tyler Atkinson, Kerber, Brad Smale and Eric Sicker. Scoring for Tweed were Dylan Franks, Shawn Whyte and Jarod Lough. A shorthanded goal by Jacob Outred at the 7:07 mark of the third period ensured the Campbellford Colts of a 3 - 3 tie with
Norwood. Scoring for the Hornets were Atkinson, Smale and MacDonald with Nick Carson adding two for the Colts. Picking up Norwood assists were Sicker (2), Brandon Forsyth, and Smale; earning assists for Campbellford were Kyle Hudson, Davis Ward and Walkon Morningstar. The Hornets had trouble finishing off scoring chances in Ennismore and fell 3 - 1 with Barrons picking up the lone goal on a powerplay late in the second period. Brad Smale picked up the assist.
Bulls face strong Oshawa team on Friday night By Stephen Petrick
Sports - Belleville - The Belleville Bulls will look to make up some ground on the team they’re chasing in the Ontario Hockey League’s East Division this weekend. The Bulls will head west to face the Oshawa Generals on Friday night, before returning home for two games at the Yardmen Arena. The Bulls host the Owen Sound Attack at 7:05 p.m. on Saturday night. They then host the Barrie Colts on Sunday at 4 p.m. Friday’s game features the two top teams in the East Division. Oshawa ended last weekend well ahead in first place, with a 16-2-1-0 record. Belleville ended the weekend at 12-7-1-1. While scoring hasn’t been a big problem for Belleville for most of the year, it was last weekend as they mustered just two goals in a pair of losses.
On Friday, they travelled to Ottawa to face the division rival 67’s. Jordan Subban scored his 11th goal of the season (which puts him first in the league among defenceman) to give the Bulls a 1 - 0 first-period lead, but the 67’s scored once in the second and three times in the third to win the game 4 - 1. Charlie Graham, who missed some action the previous weekend because of an injury, was back in goal. He took the loss despite making 32 saves. On Saturday, the Bulls took on the defending league-champion Guelph Storm and again took an early 1 - 0 lead, as Adam Laishram scored in the first period. But two late third-period goals by Guelph gave the Storm a 2 1 win, to the disappointment of the Yardmen Arena crowd, which was announced at 2,425. Graham was again the losing goaltender, despite a 50-save performance.
It was a much better result for the Storm following the two teams’ first meeting of the year; a 6 - 0 win for Belleville in the season opener in Guelph. The Connor McDavid show won’t come to Belleville The well-publicized injury to junior hockey phenom Connor McDavid is bad news for Belleville hockey fans. McDavid, the 17year-old forward with the Erie Otters, injured his hand in a fight last week and the team announced he won’t likely play again until after Christmas. That means he won’t play in the Otters’ lone game in Belleville this
year on Saturday, December 6. McDavid is highly expected to be selected first overall in the 2015 National Hockey League entry draft. He currently leads the OHL in scoring, with 16 goals and 35 assists in just 18 games. It’s not clear whether he’ll be ready to play for Canada in the World Junior Championship tournament over the holidays.
Goalie not an insurance agent … yet On page 26 of the November 13 edition, the Trent Hills Independent ran a photo with the wrong caption. It was Norwood Atom goalie Devin Creasey (not Bob Bullock) trying out the new goaltending equipment Norwood District Minor Sports received from the Insurance Brokers Association of Ontario’s Goalie Assist Program. Trent Hills Independent regrets the error.

Operation â&#x20AC;&#x153;Skilled Sustainerâ&#x20AC;? touches down By Bill Freeman
Garrison Petawawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2 Service Battalion rumbled into Asphodel-Norwood for four days as part of Exercise Skilled Sustainer. The logistics unit is part of the 2 Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group. Photo: Bill
News - Norwood - Asphodel-Norwood got a rare chance to see how a topflight Canadian Armed Forces logistics unit goes to work supporting troops in the field when 277 members of 2 Service Battalion, with 150 vehicles in tow, set up camp in the township for Exercise Skilled Sustainer. 2 Service Battalion is a unit within the 2 Mechanized Canadian Brigade Group stationed in Petawawa and they rumbled into Norwood with their military pattern logistics vehicles and armoured vehicles late last week and established three encampments, one in the village at the Norwood Fairgrounds, another west of Norwood near a gravel pit on the Sand Road and another east of Norwood along Highway 7. The main base, with its operation centre, was at the fairgrounds. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The larger the move the harder the organization and it tests the unit,â&#x20AC;? said Lieutenant-Colonel Carla Harding, Commanding Officer of 2 Service Battalion. The 15-day exercise included in Asphodel-Norwood, Beeton and Bancroft. Every fall, soldiers from the battalion hit the road for a training exercise giving them a chance to deploy their equipment and work on the different skills that would be required in both domestic and international situations. The battalion provides things like warehousing support, distribution support and maintenance to all the equipment at Garrison Petawawa. They have the â&#x20AC;&#x153;deployment capability to support whatever element goes overseas and we also support things on the base,â&#x20AC;? Lieutenant Colonel Harding added. Key to the exercise was working in a populated area and that included foot and vehicle patrols in Norwood.

Battalion is entirely self-contained
“We go into towns and villages because it’s the way we do operations,” she said. “Quite frankly, we’ve never gone into the trees when we go overseas. Even for a domestic operation we would never go set up in a treeline. “We are trained in soldier skills but our primary role is as technicians: cooks, mechanics, transportation, ammunition, warehousing, finance, postal, mobile support. Our role is the
real work of getting [troops] to the point where they can actually shoot something.” “We’ve got the full spectrum of training.” The “side benefit” to Exercise Skilled Sustainer is that it gives soldiers a chance to “engage the public,” Lieutenant Colonel Harding said. “As simple as it sounds, when we go overseas a lot of our skill set comes from working with what local businesses have to offer, local procurement.”
The battalion is entirely self-contained with its own generators, heaters, laundry, showers, portable washrooms, water, kitchen, mess, etc. With its large maintenance shelters, sea containers and 20,000-ton trucks the battalion “needs pavement and gravel,” Lieutenant Colonel Harding noted. “One of the things we need to train on is the movement between locations and how you actually park your vehicles. They have to
be parked and grouped in certain ways so we can do the function we’re trained to do.” Harding said they were excited to be in Norwood. They entertained students from
Norwood District High School and Hucklebug Daycare, hosted councillors and Legion members at a mess dinner and opened their sites to the public Saturday morning. Some of the troops
visited the Legion’s military museum. “We’re ridiculously proud of our guys. They are exceptional technicians as well as great soldiers.”

their 15-day training exercise. “It’s a tremendous opportunity,” said Pearcy who himself was a weapons instructor for the Canadian Armed Forces and helped train Canadian soldiers deployed to the Belgian Congo as part of a United Nations force. “It’s good for people to be exposed to the military,” he said. “The more we know about the military the more we are apt to support them. We’ve just come off Remembrance Day so people should at least have that in their minds.” Pearcy found the battalion’s equipment “really interesting. “They transformed the fairgrounds into a little city in a matter of hours,” he said. “It’s enlightening. I hope people took advantage and went over and took a look and saw the trucks and different pieces of equipment, the field kitchen. The whole idea [of the exercise] is that it is something that move if they’re in a battle condition and they move the front line ahead then they’d move this little town ahead.” And while the unit can be deployed to support fighting troops it is also Asphodel-Norwood CAO Joe van Koeverden and Mayor Doug Pearcy welcome 2 Service Battalion Commanding Officer Lieu- can be used for things like disaster tenant Colonel Carla Harding, Sergeant Major Chief Warrant Officer Dan Dubuc and Captain Katie Chute during Exercise Skil- relief here and abroad. “If these guys are needed it’s led Sustainer.

The unit has seen action in places like Haiti, Afghanistan, the former Yugoslavia, the
Persian Gulf, the Manitoba floods and eastern Canada’s ice storm. “There could be more and more catastrophic weather events [and] that’s scary. It’s important to have the military in place to do their job. The way things have been going we’ll probably be supporting them a lot more than we have; we’ve got to have these guys.”

Christmas coming to Farmtown Park By Richard Turtle
Events - Stirling - While the local museum is closed for the season, staff and volunteers at Farmtown Park have been working behind the scenes in preparation for a pair of popular Christmas events that begin tonight, November 20. Manager Margaret Grotek says Christmas in Heritage Village, the annual celebration hosted in the museum’s reconstructed streetscape, has seen the building transformed into the Enchanted Forest, and starting at 4 p.m., visitors are invited to check out the numerous items up for raffle. Grotek says that, as in previous years, volunteers have been out shopping and gathering together countless seasonal items to create dozens of themed Christmas trees, swags, wreaths and other decorative items. And for the next four days,
she says, the special event will feature plenty of decorating ideas, provide numerous opportunities to win prizes and offer entertainment and refreshments as well as provide much needed funding for the ongoing operation of Farmtown Park. Each year the special events bring hundreds of visitors to the museum, and Grotek says they have proven to be highly successful fund raisers in the past. Each year in the weeks leading up to the late fall reopening, the creative skills of volunteers and supporters are put to the test as they shed a little light on some seasonal decorating ideas. Although the planning and preparation is a massive undertaking, she notes, there have been many experienced volunteers available to contribute to the success of the event and once again ex-
pectations are high attendance will continue to grow. Admission to the Enchanted Forest is $5 per person with raffle tickets available onsite. Beginning today from 4 to 9 p.m., Christmas at Farmtown Park continues Friday (11 a.m. to 1 p.m.) and Saturday (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) before the final day on Sunday from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. when all of the draws will be held. Today also marks the annual Starlite House Tour where five area residences, as well as Farmtown Park, are welcoming visitors throughout the afternoon and evening. Tickets for the tour, which runs from 4 to 8 p.m. today, are $20 each and can be purchased at Rustic Routes, Vintage Junction, The Apple Store, Stirling Dental Clinic or by calling Farmtown Park at 613-395-0015.

own image of beauty. As soon as the first hint of melting snow is in the air, you are in the stores. In the gardening world, summer is not really that important. Perhaps this surprises you, Gentle Reader, but consider that, unless you are embarking on a major landscaping project, there’s not much to do except fertilise and water. The rest of the time is devoted to the times of rest. The onset of fall causes us to change from human beings to human doings. Harvesting bounty, planting everything from bulbs to trees and preparing for winter keeps us active and engaged on our land. You folk are the most happy during this time: you’ve either reconciled horticultural disappointments and have a plan to make next year better or you’re revelling in a fantastic year of successes. Christmas, of course, is Christmas. (As an aside, I do wish convention allowed us to use a lower case “c”, e.g. christmas, when referring to the secular activities associated with this Holy Day). We started talking about the three main selling seasons; now, let me chat about the three busy seasons. They actually have the same name, transition, and they mark the changeover between each of the selling bits. It is true that the spring season is, physically, the busiest and toughest time throughout its course. There is lots of activity taking place which wears us down but more debilitating is the great deal of thinking that is also needed. It is the thinking bit that does me in. The easiest transition is from Christmas to spring. All we have to do is take down the decorations, grind up a few left over bits of greenery and fine tune the
as all of the plants and hard goods are already on site. We just have to advertise the fall sales, rearrange some of the displays to highlight fall activities and prepare for the busiest transition time, fall to Christmas. Some of my colleagues may disagree with me, but I find this to be a very demanding time of the year. Everything is in transition, including our mindset. In the yard, plants are prepared for the winter (pruning, wrapping and spraying for rodent protection, moving perennials and shrubs to hoop houses) putting plastic on the hoop houses, installing rabbit fences, bringing in and displaying almost 1,000 Christmas trees plus all the bits necessary to package them. The store is transformed into a wonderland of displays and treasures sure to put smiles on shoppers’ faces. Transformation is an all-hands evolution with preparation beginning in mid-October. Once transition is complete, all we have to do is maintain everything. This is one of the best times for me, which I find surprising because I’m busy selling people dead plant stuff such as cut trees, wreaths, boughs, colourful twigs and so on which is not what I imagine my calling to be. However, it
Dan Clost is fun to interact with the families and watch the children enjoying themselves. I take great pleasure in filling in the gaps in their understanding of the lore of this time. For example, we have a pond just chock full of large Christmas fish which Santa uses in the tropics. Didn’t know that did you GR? Winter time is split between three main activities. At our location, we have a tropical house and gift shop that is open year round so retail continues. The other two tasks are analysis with, preparations for next year based on those figures and satisfying the needs of compliance with all acts and laws that regulate our industry. You folk aren’t really involved so this time doesn’t count as a “season” unless we appropriate the Bard’s moniker as “the season of our discontent.”

From the Andes to Tweed (and back)
By Brett Mann
News - Tweed - â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to see snow again.â&#x20AC;? Father Maurice (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Moâ&#x20AC;?) Schroeder may have been the only Tweed resident to be enthused at a recent dreary wet November snowfall. The Oblate priest is filling in at St. Carthaghâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and St. Edmundâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Churches for Father Mark Ruckpaul who is on sabbatical study leave at the Vatican. Originally from Elrose, Saskatchewan, Father Schroeder has spent most of his recent life working in Peru. He was ordained in 1962 and graduated from the University of Calgary Faculty of Medicine in 1976. He became a medical doctor on completing an internship in family practice in Texas. In the fall of 1977 he went to Peru. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I first went to Peru I was at this town here called Aucayacu,â&#x20AC;? says Father Schroeder, pointing to a map of the interior of Peru in the high Amazon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was there for five years in a very rural village training rural health workers.â&#x20AC;? This was followed by studies at the Antwerp Tropical Medicine School and three years working with leprosy patients
in Haiti, coinciding with the last three years of the dictatorial JeanClaude Duvalier regime, Father Schroeder notes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In 1986 I came back to Peru to Santa Clotilde on the Napo River in the extreme northeast of Peru. It is a tributary of the Amazon near the city of Iquitos. Iquitos is the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest land-locked city in the sense that the only access is by water or air. There are no roads into Iquitos.â&#x20AC;? When Father Schroeder first came to Santa Clotilde it was the chief medical centre apart from the hospital in Iquitos, three days journey distant. With the help of an American priest, Father Jack McCarthy, he established a health care system on the river. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were the first resident doctors,â&#x20AC;? Father Schroeder reports although an existing dispensary had been run by nursing nuns from Lennoxville, Quebec. There was little or no government sponsored medical services. Government ministries gradually â&#x20AC;&#x153;grafted intoâ&#x20AC;? the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s medical infrastructure and currently medical services and education are provided under a
â&#x20AC;&#x153;convenioâ&#x20AC;? or formal agreement between the local bishop and government ministries. From its humble beginnings Santa Clotilde now has an officially recognized functioning 30-bed hospital with a jurisdiction extending 400 kilometres along the Napo riverâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x153;like taking a motor boat from Tweed to Montrealâ&#x20AC;? Father Schroeder remarks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have 12 different medical posts on that stretch and we have some medical professionals there. We have lots of volunteers. We have 50 people working in the hospital and another 20 at the river posts.â&#x20AC;? Two-thirds of staff are employed by the Peruvian Ministry of Health and the remainder by a â&#x20AC;&#x153;civil associationâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;an NGOâ&#x20AC;? named PANGO, the native word for a common food. Under Peruvian government policies, young professionals such as doctors and dentists must work for one year in rural areas and â&#x20AC;&#x153;weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had the benefits of their service from the earliest years,â&#x20AC;? says Father Schroeder. This area of Peru at one time had the highest incidence of a particular form of malaria any-
where in Latin America. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a scourge.â&#x20AC;? Through the help of Global Fund, a charity supported by Bill Gates, thousands of insecticide-treated bed nets were supplied along with immediate treatment, crucial for containing malaria outbreaks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are the reservoir for the disease, not mosquitoes,â&#x20AC;? observes Father Schroeder.â&#x20AC;? Other aid provided by Global Fund addressed many non-malarial needs and included a satellite WiFi communications system which has made the region more enticing to visiting medical personnel. On leaving Tweed at the end of November Father Schroeder will visit Saskatchewan and return to his work in Peru which now consists mainly of fund raising and community liaison. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tweed is a lovely town with lovely parishes,â&#x20AC;? he remarks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a visitor here and it has given me a Oblate Father Maurice â&#x20AC;&#x153;Moâ&#x20AC;?

Events - Trenton - Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation is hosting its first ever Christmas Vendors Sale on December 5. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is our first time doing this sale,â&#x20AC;? says organizer Laura-Lee Hogan. â&#x20AC;&#x153; We hope it will be a good start for an annual event.â&#x20AC;? The sale will run from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and parking is free with every purchase. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have representatives from Scentsy, Epicure, Pampered Chef, Arbonne, Younique/3D Mascara, Thirty-One Gifts, Steeped Tea, Splash Natural Bath and Body as well as a few others to be confirmed,â&#x20AC;? she adds. A number of independent consultants will have a wide range of product lines from across the region set up and have cash and carry, as well as opportunities to order additional items, with a portion of sales going to TMHF. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am co-ordinating the vendors and setting up for the event,â&#x20AC;?

We wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know the amount raised until the end of the day, as it is a portion of sales, but we hope to have some great sales and traffic through the booths that day!â&#x20AC;? Hogan notes that the Holly Bazaar being held on November 21, from noon to 4 p.m. is also raising funds for the hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The difference between the Holly Bazaar and this is that the auxiliary host the bazaar and it has many items, both new and gently used, for sale by the auxiliary members themselves,â&#x20AC;? Hogan explains.

Enjoying the Night Watchman’s Tour in Rothenburg, Germany
By John M. Smith
Lifestyles - Rothenburg ob der Tauber (Red Fort on the River Tauber) is one of Europe’s best preserved and most beautiful walled medieval towns, and it’s located near the north end of Germany’s so-called “Romantic Road,” a popular tourist magnet in the southern provinces of Baden-Wurttemberg and Bavaria. This enticing destination was at one time an important crossroads of trade routes and more populated than such modern metropolises as nearby Nuremburg, Frankfurt, or Munich. However, it went into a serious decline after the Thirty Years War (1618-1648), for it was badly damaged by invaders at that time, and then it was further destroyed by the arrival of the Black Death. The area remained in a kind of “sleep mode” for about 250 years after that disturbing time period, but it has since re-emerged as a popular tourist destination. There are its walkable massive walls that surround the town, its enormous town gates, enticing church spires, picturesque redroofed buildings, and popular attractions, including a year-round Christmas Village, Doll & Toy Museum, Medieval Crime Museum, Imperial City Museum (housed in a former Dominican nunnery), and historic Town Hall (with its dungeons, clock, councillor’s tavern, and lookout tower). This Town Hall now houses the tourism office, too. I discovered that one of the very best ways to explore this particular destination, and to learn of Rothenburg’s intriguing history, was to join the Night

Watchman’s Tour, available in the Market Square, right next to the Town Hall, each night at 8 (from mid-March until Christmas). Not only was this tour in English, it was also both very informative and very entertaining. George, the Night Watchman, was dressed in a broad-brimmed hat, wore a large black cape over his clothes, and carried a lantern. He made his grand entrance into the square and immediately began to entertain our large tour group with his humorous and colourful anecdotes. He told us of the Night Watchman’s important function here in the early part of the 20th century, for he’d walk through the fortified city, making certain that “all was well.” Since most of the good citizens were in bed early, and he made his rounds between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m., he primarily met the drunks and thieves. Therefore, he carried a weapon for COACH & TOURS protection, a hellebarde. He also wore a horn on a chain around his neck, in case he had to warn the sleeping citizens of a fire, for “this was EXPERIENCE THE ROAD TO the greatest danger in a city of EXCELLENCE wooden houses in pre-fire hydrant days.” He told us the job Watertown Shopping - Saturday, November 29/14 of “making the rounds” was Alight at Night, Upper Canada Village - Saturday, December 6/14 much easier and safer now, on Festival of Lights - Niagara Falls - December 7-9/14 Florida Sunshine Clearwater Beach - February 5 -19/15 this arranged tour, “for you’re Toronto Sportsman Show - Saturday, February 7/15 all going with me.” He went Winterlude - February 14/15 on to tell us that, at one time, Spring Fling Myrtle Beach - February 26 to March 13/15 in the early 20th century (up Charleston, Beaufort SC & Savannah GA - April 16-22/15 to 1920), there were six Night Arizona Desert in Bloom - April 22 to May 14/15 Watchmen in Rothenburg ob Toronto Premium Outlets - Saturday, May 2/15 der Tauber, but he confided Blue Jays vs Red Sox - Saturday, May 9/15 that he “had to eventually get Ottawa Tulip Festival - Wednesday, May 13/15 rid of the other five in order to Amish Indiana - June 1-5/15 make a living.” Ontario Summer Adventure - July 6-11/15 As he led us through the Call us for your group transportation needs.

Entrance through this smaller door was accompanied by rather rough treatment, plus a fine. However, at least you’d then be safely inside the city walls. I was also told that most of the old houses within Rothenburg contained hooks up by the attics, for food and goods were regularly stored up here, in case of a “lockdown” because of a threatened invasion. Going through this city gate brought us out into the Castle Gardens, and from here we could look down into the Tauber Valley far below and see Toppler’s Little Castle (former home of a mayor) and the 14th century Kobolzeller Church. While in this area, George gave us some of the details of Rothenburg’s history, including the destructive Thirty Years War and the onset of the plague. As George confessed, these weren’t really “the good old days,” for disease and poverty became rampant. He said it was finally concluded, after these “dark days”, that “if you didn’t have money, you should at least have a good idea.” He continued this train of thought by saying “by the way, that’s I walked on the medieval wall that still encircles Rothenburg ob der Tauhow I became a Night Watchman.” ber. This led me to be impressed by this young man as an entrepreneur, for he certainly seemed to have a “good idea” going here. After all, the tour seemed to be very popular and successful, attracting large crowds of paying customers (7 EUR for adult; 4 EUR for students; free under 12). The tour took about an hour, and he did it daily, at 8 p.m. in English and again at 9:30 p.m. in German, and he concluded each tour with an opportunity for the purchasing of postcards/photos based on this tour and/ or a DVD, narrated by George himself, of “The History of Rothenburg ob der Tauber.” As the Night Watchman led us back inside the walled, fortified city near the end of our tour, we passed a medieval tavern named Hoell (Hell). He confided that he “had once been told to ‘go to Hell’” and it wasn’t so bad.” In fact, he admitted, This small door within the big door served as an entrance to the fortified “I rather liked it.” town after curfew.

didly told the Trent Hills Independent. “We had to memorize the seating chart for the MPPs, where they were from, names, faces and everything about them. It was really challenging.” But for this Grade 8 student at St. Mary’s Catholic Elementary School in Campbellford, it was an experience she will never forget. Her mom, Tina Stephens, who worked for (former) MPP Rob Milligan as constituency assistant from 2011 to this last election, had encouraged her to apply. “I went to Rob’s swearing in at Queen’s Park. That’s when I decided I really liked it there,” said Josée. As part of the application process she had to write a 750-word essay, show participation in extracurricular activities and have a minimum academic average of 80 per cent. As well she had to have a letter of recommendation from her principal. There were more than 500 applications for this session so competition was intense. A total of 24 Pages were in the 41st session with her, all of whom she got to know very well.

The group is already planning a reunion. “The most fun about the program was being up there and meeting and making new friends. I miss them a lot,” she said. “I still talk to at least one of them every day and we all keep in touch, we have a contact list.” While there as a Page she worked in the Legislative Chamber, performing many duties for the Speaker of the House, MPPs and the Officers of the House. She would collect and distribute official documents, deliver important messages to and from MPPs and their assistants, and deliver glasses of water. As a Page she also delivered messages from the Chamber to other legislative offices. While at Queen’s Park, she attended class, learned about the legislative process, and was tutored in mathematics. “Our teacher was Miss [Erin] Tedford. She’s the co-ordinator of the program.” Pages participated in special educational activities and field trips once a
week as well. During her time as a Page, Josée got to meet former MPP Milligan, who is teaching again at Campbellford District High School. He brought a class of students to Queen’s Park while she was there. She also met MPP Lou Rinaldi. When asked if she had a career in politics in mind Josée said, “I would like to be an aide.” But she has a couple of other options up her sleeve. “I like criminology and forensics too.” Her third option is journalism, “because I like to write.” But for now she is back in school with her classmates and has returned to her usual routine of bowling, playing volleyball and soccer at school, and going to the Hastings-Prince Edward Cadet (2777) meetings every week … but she hasn’t forgotten her time as a Page nor the friends she made. “My main memory from this is the friends I made … and many people have said this will open a lot of doors for me,” she said with a grin.

Events - Hastings - It will be an elegant, rustic, colourful, inventive and certainly festive event as the Hastings Waterfront Festival hosts its first annual Christmas House Tour November 29 with seven very different
homes featured and an invitation also to visit the Hastings Legion’s popular “Last Chance” craft bazaar. The proceeds from the house tour will benefit the Hastings Waterfront Festival which ran into bad luck with weather this
past August with half the event rained out. “Planning started last year to put on this fun event to bring visitors to Hastings and its businesses when we thought the bridge would be closed after Christmas,” Waterfront Festival

chair Erin Farley said. At that time, Farley says they had no idea where they’d earmark proceeds but wet weather meant the 2014 festival was not able to make any profits so they’ve decided to channel proceeds from the house tour into next year’s waterfront festival for start-up costs. They also picked a tour date in the later summer of 2013 so it could be featured in 2014 municipal tourism guides and they chose November 29 so it wouldn’t
conflict with the Branch 106 craft bazaar; they had no idea Santa Claus parades would take place in Campbellford, Norwood, Cordova Mines and Warsaw on that day. Happily, the Legion decided to move its bazaar so that it coincides with the house tour so it could become an added attraction for tour visitors. If they’d known of the parades they wouldn’t have picked November 29, says Farley. If they organize a house tour next year they’ll

shift to some time in December. “Other Christmas house tours in Trent Hills [have been] well attended and this seemed to be a good way to bring visitors to Hastings before the previously planned bridge closure,” says Farley. The tour offers a delightful variety of homes to browse, everything from circa 1850 Gothic and a red cedar British Columbia-fashioned log house to contemporary and the eye-catching “Stonegate” built in 1935 as a summer residence for a family from Virginia. Farley is both excited and nervous about the showcase and hopes local residents and visitors take advantage of what they have to offer. She also encourages them to visit Legion Branch 106 to browse and to support local businesses who’ve been encouraged to decorate their stores and storefronts. The Waterfront Festival itself is responsible for the window display in the empty space next to the Ultimate Bait Shop on Front Street. Denise Richardson and friends have brought their talents to bear on the windows. “The empty building on Bridge Street next to the Water Lily will be decorated by the owner and of course the seven homeowners are doing a lot of decorating to make their places look wonderful for visitors,” adds Farley. The tour runs from noon until 5 p.m. A tour passport is $20 and must be shown to the greeter at each home. Passports are available at The Water Lily in Hastings, Trent Hills & District Chamber of Commerce, Bridgewater Café in Hastings and Legion Branch 106. For more information call 705696-1697.

Petty speaks of broadcasting and beyond
News - Quinte West - She is a helicopter pilot and a filmmaker, an author and public speaker and has hosted her own television show, jumped out of airplanes and earned certification as a scuba diver. And if there is one thing Dini Petty has learned over the course of a well-travelled career and life, that has also involved numerous firsts, it is the knowledge that “there is a lot more than this.” Petty spoke at Johnstown Church last weekend as part of the fund-raising series in support of the Roy Bonisteel Tribute Garden, offering a little insight into the world of broadcasting and beyond. She also acknowledged Bonisteel’s exceptional career and his contribution to Canadian journalism. In his introduction, event organizer Brian Weston welcomed the crowd of about two dozen, noting that in light of the fact that the series is paying tribute to an iconic Canadian broadcaster, it was only fitting to have another broadcasting icon included. Petty, who continues to travel and speak to groups about her life and work, was an obvious choice, he says. And the guest speaker provided plenty of food for thought along with her collection of anecdotes that ranged from interviewing experiences to inexplicable occurrences that were both death defying and otherworldly. The daughter of Canada’s first talent agent, Molly Petty, she eagerly volunteered for her first stage performance at the age of five and “the parade of beautiful men and
women … began when I was 11 years old.” And while the experience she recounts was admittedly an intimidating one, Petty says, “I got to understand beauty.” Not many years later, she forged her mother’s signature to go skydiving, and she says, that eventually led to 5,000 hours at the controls of a pink media helicopter. And while much of her flying experience was mundane, she says, it also included some life-altering moments. Her television career started at CityTV before she went on to CTV and her own show. And in that time she conducted more than 20,000 interviews, with many of them memorable she says, but adds it was the connection she made with comedian Red Skelton that was truly special. Tongue-tied at their first meeting, Petty says the two became very close. In the ensuing years, Skelton gave her one of his paintings as a birthday present. In concluding her presentation, Petty read a letter he penned in 1994. “I’ve never met anyone like that,” she says. To close, she read from her children’s book The Queen, The Bear and the Bumblebee, which is currently being adapted for the stage and Petty is hopeful will come to Toronto in the near future. As the series continues, Weston and partner Lesley Bonisteel are also hosting an Opera Cocktail Party, featuring teen singing sensation Roanna Lee Kitchen, on November 22 as well as a reading of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol on December 6.

New artist shares her talent teaching free classes News - Campbellford - Newcomer to town, Jeanette Campbell has brought her artistic talents with her to Trent Hills where she is sharing her creative abilities, teaching others how to paint. “I am an artist and have been teaching all my life,” she told the Trent Hills Independent.
This newspaper caught up to her at the Forrest Dennis Seniors Centre in Campbellford where she has been instructing a group of art enthusiasts. Her class has grown these past several weeks and about 20 attend. And it’s free thanks to sponsorship by Hillside Haven Retirement Residence in partnership with the Campbellford Senior Citizens’ Club. “I offered my services and they thought it was a good idea,” said Campbell, as she moved from student to student answering any questions they might have such as how to mix paints to achieve a specific colour or where to place the brush stroke for a special effect. C a m p b e l l ’s teaching style is one she has fine tuned over the years. “I would say I really like my stuROSSMORE dents to develop 613-966-6656 their own style,” she commented.

“I don’t like to have them all copying what I do so my biggest challenge is to guide them and direct them to develop their own style and to really enjoy what they are doing,” she explained. “I have been painting all my life. Had my first show when I was 13 and have been teaching since my early 20s,” she added. Growing up in Toronto, she moved to New Liskeard for a while to be closer to her mother who had moved there. She raised her three daughters but spent a lot of time travelling back and forth to Toronto for her career as an artist. Her work has been shown at the White Castle Gallery and she still has a lot of her paintings at Studio Two in Hamilton. Having studied art at McMaster University she has developed quite a portfolio. “I did a lot of portrait work,” she noted. “Right now I am working mostly in acrylics and watercolours but I mostly painted in oils for ten years.” Through word of mouth her class of adults here has grown during the past several weeks. “We are working with acrylics and watercolours … people here are working with both mediums, some are beginners some have painted before or maybe haven’t painted for a while and are back at it,” she said.
Adult classes in art are being offer free at the Forrest Dennis Seniors Centre in Campbellford thanks to sponsorship by Hillside Haven Retirement Residence in partnership with the Campbellford Senior Citizens’ Club.

One of her students is Norma Moran, who at the young age of 96 years, joined the group to continue to enjoy her love of painting. She has been a member of the seniors’ club for 20 years or more. “I like to do oil painting, scenes, birds, animals,” she said. Her work hangs in the hallways of the apartment building she lives in across the road from the centre. “I love to paint, it is my only hobby,” she said. Sandy Moody is another taking the art classes. “I enjoy it because it’s ful-
filling. There’s a creative part in us all and Jeanette is able to bring it out,” she said. “She is a wonderful artist I love her work and would love to be able to paint like her.” Cheryl Easterbrook finds the classes very enjoyable. “I like it because it is very therapeutic and relaxing,” she noted. The classes take place very Tuesday from 10 a.m. to noon at the centre. If interest continues Campbell hopes to teach another series in January 2015.

Any community is made up from the sum of its parts, and when you participate within it, you support local business and the people and the population in more ways than you can know. For the past 26 plus years,Inova Opticians has been serving Belleville, Ontario with pride and wants you to be aware of the buy local proposition. When you buy from an independent, locally-owned business, rather than nationally-owned businesses and even big box stores, significantly more of your money is used to make purchases from other local business, service providers and even farms, continuing to strengthen the economic base of the community. Support community groups; where we shop, where we eat and have fun – all of it makes your community home. One-of-a-kind independent businesses are an integral part of the distinctive character of any neighborhood. Locally owned businesses can make more local purchases requiring less transportation and generally set up shop in town or city centres as opposed to developing on the fringe. This generally means contributing less to urban sprawl, congestion, habitat loss and, of course – pollution. Statistically, small local businesses are often the largest employer and in your community, provide the most jobs to residents. Furthermore, they often hire people with a better understanding of the products they are selling and take more time to get to know customers. Local businesses are owned by people who live in this community, are less likely to leave, and are more invested in your district’s future. Considering all of that, make an appointment with a reputable local eye care specialist like Inova Opticians. Conveniently located at 150 Sidney Street in Belleville. Your one-stop destination for professional eye examinations, modern fashionable eyewear and consultations to ensure the health of you and your family’s eyes. “Like” us on Facebook. Call (613) 968-8846 today; it’s time to make an appointment to put your vision into perspective – and to begin to see things more clearly.

News - Warkworth - Building on past success the third annual Warkworth Health and Wellness Fair will again be offering a myriad of vendors with products and services to make folks feel better and live better. Money raised at this event will go toward the Flourish Campaign which has a goal of $7 million to be raised over the next ďŹ ve years, toward health and wellness projects that will beneďŹ t the entire Trent Hills community. In Warkworth the campaign will use some of its money to build a one-storey addition to the arena. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This time around I am doing the fair in memory of my father Alvin Greenly who is a former Kinsmen and he passed away in May of cancer,â&#x20AC;? said the fairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organizer Cherie Whalen, for whom the event is all about giving back. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kinsmen built the initial arena so I thought it would be ďŹ tting,â&#x20AC;? she added. The ďŹ rst year the fair was held proceeds were donated to St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s United Church in Warkworth. The second year the money went to help one family in particular, Chris and Krista Gutteridge and their three children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;[Chris] has some serious health issues that [have] put him into the hospital for quite an amount of time â&#x20AC;Ś so things were really tight with them ďŹ nancially,â&#x20AC;? said Whalen.

That is what the Whalens do â&#x20AC;Ś they volunteer their time and energy to their community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always been a volunteering family,â&#x20AC;? noted Whalen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In 2008 my husband and I started a charity, The Warkworth Family Feud.

Hockey legend Theo Fleury to speak about abuse News - Belleville - One of Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest hockey stars from the 1990s and early 2000s is coming to Belleville next month to speak about his new book, which takes an insightful and honest look at healing and recovering from trauma and abuse. The Belleville Public Library will host the book talk and signing by Olympic and Stanley Cup champion Theo Fleury and world-renowned therapist Kim Barthel, authors of Conversations with a Rattlesnake. The event takes place on Tuesday, December 9, from 5 to 8 p.m. Conversations with a Rattlesnake provides real accounts from Theoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal story and the science behind human behaviour. This story makes this difďŹ cult topic, and the knowledge it shares, accessible to everyone. Books will be available for pur-
chase and both authors will be available for signing. No registration is required for this free event. Fleury played 16 seasons in the National Hockey League, with the Calgary Flames, New York Rangers, Colorado Avalanche and Chicago Blackhawks. He was part of the Flamesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 1988-1989 Stanley Cup winning team and a member of the gold-medal winning Canadian Olympic team from 2002. But he walked away from hockey suddenly in 2003 and has since devoted his life to raising awareness of abuse. He is also the author of Playing with Fire, an autobiography in which he acknowledged suffering abuse from his junior hockey coach and how the trauma affected his personal life. For more details on this event call 613-968-6731 ext. 2237.

Mom exuded compassion, dealt with everything head-on and was known to wipe away tears with the hem of her ever present apron and a smile that made you feel like you were the only one who ever needed her. Mom, you are now free of the disease that took so much away from you and Dad. You are together again and we know that you are both looking down on us: the whisper of the rustling leaves in the trees, the sun that warms us when we are cold, and the invisible hand that we can feel in ours when we need it most. Saying goodbye is never easy and is made much more difficult when it is to someone who is such a big part of one’s life. We love you and will miss you. “Can’t you see that all of me is inside of you. Though I’m gone, I’m like a song that sings and sighs and coos.” Cremation has taken place with a Celebration of Life to be held Saturday, November 22, 2014 at 1:30 with a service at 2:30 at Brighton Funeral Home, 130 Main Street, Brighton, On.

Corner Gas star coming to Empire Theatre Entertainment - Belleville - One of Canada’s most famous comedians is coming to Belleville. Brent Butt will return to the Empire Theatre for a show on Thursday, January 15, at 8 p.m. Born in Tisdale, Saskatchewan, Brent discovered early that being funny was a good way to get attention. Brent honed his comedy in school and at the age of 20 moved to the city to pursue a career in stand-up. Within months he was headlining top clubs in Toronto, and within a couple of years he was touring internationally and appearing at major festivals. His television specials quickly secured his reputation as one of the funniest people in the country, but he was also busy creating his own TV series, the sitcom Corner Gas. It became an instant hit with unprecedented ratings and numerous accolades including an International Emmy Award nomination, and was named “Funniest Show on TV” by TV Guide readers. Corner Gas is now shown in over 26 countries including the U.S. The final episode of the series was “the highest [rated] on record for a Canadian scripted series since it began keeping track in 1994.” Brent’s follow-up series HICCUPS ran for two seasons. In 2013 Brent was honoured with a Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for his contributions to community and country. Tickets are $39.50 plus HST and the ticket service fee.
