Campbellford Santa Claus parade 2014 By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Jolly old St. Nicholas and his eight reindeer, Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen plus, of course, Rudolph, delighted young and old at this year’s Campbellford Santa Claus parade. This year’s theme was “Holiday Melodies,â€? and there was plenty of music as the downtown streets ďŹ lled with parade-goers whose smiles followed the many oats and marching bands, the ďŹ re trucks and Trent Hills Town Crier as they spread their Christmas cheer, a great start to the holiday season. Even Sparky the Safety Dog perched himself atop one of the aerial ladders bringing a message of safety and prevention to everyone. Everyone was a winner in this year’s parade but special awards went to the following winners: The Lions Club of Campbellford won the best service club/organization oat; the Campbellford BIA won the best business oat; the Campbellford Colts won the best youth oat and the best business oat was the Aron Community Theatre. There were about 40 entries this year. Sponsorship was provided by Eastlink, Municipality of Trent Hills and Bemersyde IODE. Please see photos on page 17

Food bank remains solvent thanks to community support By Sue Dickens

eral meeting (AGM) held recently in Campbellford. In 2013-2014 there were 1,353 clients compared to 1,318 clients in 2012-2013. The number of client families has also increased from 239 to 254. President Lillian Adams spoke about the challenges faced by the food bank especially at this time of year. “The number of clients is up even more right now because people can’t pay for their fuel and feed their family over the winter months. The cost of heating their homes means more hardship and actually we’re finding people working are having to come to us because they just can’t manage on minimum wage,” she said. “We are getting The price you lots of single parsee is the price ents with children you pay! … and families,” she added.

cally links its data to the Ontario Association of Food Banks which in turn submits data to Food Banks Canada which puts together its annual report the “HungerCount.” The information is also shared with the 32 other food banks throughout Northumberland. The HungerCount report is the only comprehensive study of food bank use in Canada. It offers a snapshot of the people helped by food banks and other charitable food programs, looks at the causes of hunger and food insecurity, and offers recommendations to reduce hunger. Gary Raine, first vice president of the Campbellford food bank board, provided an update on the HungerCount alongside Campbellford’s statistics. Close to 275,000 individuals were assisted in Ontario this year and of that number 35 per cent were adults under the age of 18 which compares to Campbellford’s 36.47 per cent. Comparing numbers further the province’s food banks assisted 2.76 per cent of the population while here in Trent Hills, the number comes in at 4.97 per cent. “We have an older population and live in an area where the average income is lower than the province’s figures,” Raine noted. Examining the demographics, 11.1 per cent of those assisted here are over the age of 65 while the number of clients

who are families with children came in at 42.20 per cent, backing up what Adams said earlier. The average cost of food distributed per client per visit has increased to $78.80, up from $71.21 two years ago, however, the total estimated cost of distributed food for 2013-2014 is $107,408, down from $125,965 two years ago. “We had a lot more clients back then and we have changed the way we do things,” Raine explained. The summary of the year’s finances show that the food bank’s total income to date is $28,782.98 while total expenses are $27,994.37 leaving $788.61

in the bank. The biggest cost was for groceries in the amount of $12,465.71. Adams wrapped up the AGM with the comment, “I want to say thank you very much to all the volunteers because I think you do a great job … and to all the people here in Campbellford who are so generous, the schools who do all the collecting of food and more.” It should be noted the food bank is open every Wednesday from 9 a.m. to noon but as it will be closed on December 24 and 31, it will be open December 29, then returns to its regular scheduled January 7, 2015.

Hastings Christmas house tour a grand success By Bill Freeman

Lifestyles - Hastings - The first ever Hastings Waterfront Festival Christmas house tour was a sold-out success and organizers are already looking ahead to next year’s show. “There was a big rush on ticket sales from the day your story was in the Independent and we sold out,� said organizer Erin Farley, who also chairs the Hastings Waterfront Festival which is the big beneficiary of the event.

Farley said they rushed to print more tickets and then sold out of them and also had to make additional photocopies of the tour’s information brochure. That kind of success bodes well for next year’s Christmas tour even though it was a lot of work, says Farley. “Since my house was on the tour I know how much work it was getting the house ready and the waterfront committee is very grateful to the homeowners for opening their beautifully decorated

homes for visitors to view.� Seven homes were featured in the show which also shared the day with the Hastings Legion’s Last Chance Christmas bazaar. Three of the homes were on Front Street West, another on Homewood Avenue, the striking 1935 stone cottage house built by a doctor from Virginia in 1935, one on Bay Street and Farley’s house on Trent Street. “It was an exciting and fun day for

visitors and homeowners alike,� Farley said. “I was told restaurants and shops had lots of new customers and the Legion and their craft sale vendors had a busy and successful morning.� Farley says next year’s tour will include an entirely new set of homes for viewing. The tour featured some draws and the winners were Martha Kimball, Larry McConnell, Kathryn McConnell and Lily May Whaley.

The Bridgewater CafÊ on Front Street East welcomed guests who stopped in for warm refreshments and Christmas treats and to browse homemade gift ideas. Winning draws at Bridgewater were Sharon McMillan, Pat Johnston and Cindy McMillan. Winning draws as part of the Legion’s Last Chance passport partnership with downtown businesses were Pat Ellis of Hastings, Nancy Tait of Toronto and Lucille Lee of Norwood.

New HBM council faces “daunting task,� mayor says

By Bill Freeman

years of municipal council experience, says the new council, sworn in Monday morning, “will see the most challenging term we’ve seen in decades.�

It will be a “daunting task� to move the community forward, Gerow said in remarks to a crowded council that included Peterborough County Warden J. Murray Jones.

Mayor Gerow outlined some of those challenges starting with policing costs which are at “their highest level everâ€? and will escalate annually for the next four years. He called those costs “unsustainable and unprecedentedâ€? and promised a future request to consider a short-term contract with the OPP while council considers other options. The village of Havelock’s water system needs a new expensive standpipe which hopefully will be partially funded by senior levels of government but that would still leave the system’s users responsible for a portion of the cost. If the funding doesn’t come through they’ll face “a large cost to meet [the system’s needs].â€? Even though Mayor Gerow was acclaimed, he spent the election campaign talking to voters and he says he heard from many residents that they want the ward system eliminated. He vowed to undertake a public process to review the ward system. “If that’s what the community wants council will have to consider it.â€? A long-term-care facility remains a “high priorityâ€? and Gerow says he is “encouraged more than everâ€? that it will end positively. The township’s position as the Crowe Valley Conservation Authority’s largest municipal contributor will also bring ďŹ nancial pressures to bear as the CVCA struggles with its future needs, he warned. Mayor Gerow says he’ll “bring forward an aggressive approachâ€? to working with neighbouring municipalities and the county to explore ways to capitalize on joint efďŹ ciencies. “I believe there are many ways we can

save money and be more efďŹ cient.â€? Economic development will be a high priority and in early 2015 council will pursue a strategic planning process with public input to help lay out key municipal goals and ways to support existing business and attract new investment. “We continue to hear that we are in trouble [in regards] to economic development,â€? Gerow admitted. “A lot of people believe we haven’t moved the community forward as far and as quickly as we should have.â€? The municipality, like others across the province, will also face a “signiďŹ cant turnoverâ€? of senior staff owing to retirement over the term and that means ‘a lot of knowledge out the door.’â€?

“This will not be an easy term,â€? he reiterated, “[But] my expectation is that we will work together as a team for the common good.â€? Deputy-mayor Jim Martin is keen to see what ows from the strategic planning session. Council, he said, needs to work with businesses a more closely. Village Ward Councillor Barry Pomeroy cautioned against “getting the plate too fullâ€? because if you do “you don’t accomplish a lot.â€? “I’m the rookie in the room here so the ďŹ rst month will be a lot of learning,â€? Councillor-atlarge Hart Webb said. “I take it very seriously.â€? “I sit in a position of trust and I don’t take that lightly,â€? added Township Ward Councillor David Gerow, back on council after a one-term hiatus.

“In the beginning it was a little bit hard because I am in Grade 12 and I didn’t know anyone but I always went on trips with my host families and am involved with every club they have here at the school including the Justice League, Student Council, cross country and football so I got to know people,â€? he said. When asked what he liked the most about being here, he replied, “It’s the open-minded attitude of the people here ‌ at ďŹ rst I was really afraid of meeting people because I am a stranger but it is so wonderful here, it didn’t take long.â€? Moore explained that the selection process is carefully carried out and involves the student making an application accompanied by letters of commendation, an interview with parents and more. “There are rules, a lot of rules, but they are not unreasonable. The ďŹ rst

one is that you must attend school as a full-time student and then there’s the four Ds—no driving, no drugs, no drinking, no serious dating,â€? she said. Moore talked about the objectives of the program, who is eligible, how long the exchange is for (one school year), where students stay, the costs involved and more. “This exchange is meant to broaden your scope, so you can learn a new culture, learn a second language, meet people from different areas of the world and ďŹ nd out that you yourself can make a difference by being an ambassador for your country and a student involved in peace,â€? she said. Applications were provided to those students who wanted to take advantage of the program.

Public can weigh in on HBM draft budget

Time will be set aside on Havelock-Belmont-Methuen’s draft budNews - Havelock - The public will get get which proposes a municipal tax levy December 8 and December 15 for public comment on the at least two opportunities to weigh in on increase of 4.32 per cent. $7,001,979 draft budget which was given an overview by director of corporate servicestreasurer Valerie Nesbitt Monday morning following the installation of the new council. The 20-page document was “fairly comprehensive,â€? Nesbitt admitted, as she gave the newly installed council a look at some of the things driving the increase of $208,821. The municipality must raise $5,045,620 through taxation. Last year the HBM budget raised $4,836,799 through taxation. The tax rate raises 37 per cent of $208,821, Nesbitt said, with 42 per cent through changes in Current Value Assessment and 21 per cent through assessment growth. Nesbitt is estimating an increase in residential assessment at 2.9 per cent. An “illustrationâ€? incorporating the 2.9 per cent increase indicated that a property assessed at $250,000 would see a 1.54 per cent change in municipal taxation, or $16.28. “Assessment ďŹ gures will dictate changes in the tax rate,â€? she said. Looming large over the 2015 budget is the staggeringly large police services billing statement of $991,091 which is anticipated to rise to $1,165,730 in 2016 and $1,242,345 in 2017 thanks to the new OPP billing formula, that’s an increase of $345,597 from 2014 to 2017. In 2014, the township paid $896,748 for policing. By Bill Freeman

Campbellford’s club, which has been active since 1972, is one of 55 within the district which covers the area from Picton to west of Toronto and north to Alliston. Last year about 13 students within the district were accepted into the program but this year the organization expects to be able to send 15 or 16 so more spots have opened up and more countries are being added to the list of destinations. Those destinations already include Japan, Taiwan, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador and Chile. During the presentation Gontran Collin, who is a Rotary exchange student from Belgium currently attending CDHS, was there to answer questions. He spoke with the Independent about his experiences here to date.

News - Campbellford - Travelling to a foreign land, learning a different culture and living with host families are all part of the experience offered through the International Rotary Youth Exchange Program and students at Campbellford District High School are eligible. A presentation about the program was made at the school recently and a half dozen students showed up to listen to what Gael Moore, chair for Rotary District 7070 with Cobourg Rotary had to say. She was joined by Amy Widdows who is with The Rotary Club of Campbellford. Every year 8,000 students participate in the program, travelling to places they have never been, immersing themselves in the culture of that country and getting to know other students while attending school.

The OPP’s new billing formula utilizes a combination of calls for service (40 per cent) and a base service cost per property which has established a provincial average of $204; in HBM that per property cost is $284. Mayor Ron Gerow pointed out that costs do not include anticipated wage, salary and beneďŹ t increases which he says might be as high as 8.5 per cent. “It’s not sustainable,â€? he said of municipal policing costs in general and HBM speciďŹ cally. “We need to look at options.â€? Mayor Gerow says council needs take a serious look at a short-term contract of six months or a year “and ďŹ gure this out.â€? Other municipalities in Peterborough County are taking a sharp look at policing costs and what they might be able to do. Townships bordering the City of Peterborough could request an estimate from the city police force. It will also be a hot topic at Peterborough County council. “There may be another option completely.â€? “I think we’ve got to look at all the options [and] what’s reasonable,â€? he said. “The cost is just prohibitive.â€? The draft also proposes a $2 a month increase to the at rate water and sewer bill for both residential and commercial users bringing the at monthly water rate to $57 for residential customers and $67 for commercial customers and $59 and $78 respectively for sewer.

OPINION

How much money are we spending?

“Global” terrorism Editorial - “We will not be cowed by these sick terrorists,” said British Prime Minister David Cameron after ISIS produced a grisly video of the mass beheading of Syrian captives by foreign jihadis who allegedly included British fighters. “We will not be intimidated,” said Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper after the recent attacks in Montreal and Ottawa. As if the purpose of terrorist attacks in Western countries was to cow and intimidate them. You hear this sort of rhetoric from Western leaders all the time, but Harper went further and demonstrated exactly how they get it wrong. “[This] will lead us to … redouble our efforts to work with our allies around the world and fight against the terrorist organisations who brutalise those in other countries with the hope of bringing their savagery to our shores. They will have no safe haven.” Sound familiar? Sure enough, there are now half a dozen Canadian planes bombing ISIS jihadis in Iraq (although it’s unlikely that either of the Canadian attackers, both converts to radical Islam, had any contact with foreign terrorist organisations). But Harper has got the logic completely backward. The purpose of major terrorist activities directed at the West, from the 9/11 attacks to ISIS videos, is not to “cow” or “intimidate” Western countries. It is to get those countries to bomb Muslim countries or, better yet, invade them. The terrorists want to come to power in Muslim countries, not in Canada or Britain or the U.S. And the best way to establish your revolutionary credentials and recruit local supporters is to get the West to attack you. That’s what Osama bin Laden wanted in 2001. (He hoped for an American invasion of Afghanistan, but he got an unexpected bonus in the U.S. invasion of Iraq.) The ISIS videos of Western hostages being beheaded are intended to get Western countries involved in the fight against them, because that’s how you build local support. So far, the strategy is working just fine. The “Global Terrorism Index,” published annually by the Institute for Economics and Peace, reported last week that fatalities as a result of terrorism have risen fivefold in the 13 years since the 9/11 attacks, despite the U.S.-led “war on terror” that has spent $4.4 trillion on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and anti-terrorist operations elsewhere. But it’s not really

“despite” those wars. It’s largely because of them. The invasions, the drone strikes in Pakistan, Yemen and Africa, the whole lumbering apparatus of the “global war on terrorism” have not killed the terrorist beast. They have fed it, and the beast has grown very large: 3,361 people were killed by terrorism in 2000; 17,958 were killed by it last year. At least 80 per cent of these people were Muslims, and the vast majority of those who killed them were also Muslims: the terrorists of Islamic State (ISIS) in Iraq and Syria, Boko Haram in Nigeria, the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan, and al-Qaeda and its offspring in other parts of the world (like al-Shebab in northeast Africa). That is not to say that terrorism is a particularly Muslim technique. Its historical roots lie in European struggles against oppressive regimes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and it gained huge currency in liberation struggles against the European colonial empires after World War II. Even the Stern Gang in Israel and the Irish Republican Army can be seen as part of this wave. Later waves of fashion in terrorism included the European, Latin American and Japanese “urban terrorist” movements of the 1970s and 1980s— Baader-Meinhof Gang in Germany, Red Brigades in Italy, Montoneros in Argentina, Japanese Red Army and so on—none of which has any political success at all. Specifically “Islamic” terrorism really begins only in the 1990s, with the rise of radical, anachronistic forms of Sunni Islam. Only about five per cent of the victims of this latest wave of terrorism lived in developed countries, but it was their deaths, and their governments’ ignorant responses to them, that provided the fuel for the spectacular growth of jihadi extremism. So what can be done about it? The Global Terrorism Index has some useful observations to offer about that, too. It points out that a great many terrorist organisations have actually gone out of business in the past 45 years. Only ten per cent of them actually won, took power, and disbanded their terrorist wings. And only seven per cent were eliminated by the direct application of military force. Eighty per cent of them were ended by a combination of better policing and the creation of a political process that addressed the grievances of those who supported the terrorism. You don’t fix the problem by fighting poverty or raising educational levels; that kind of thing has almost nothing to do with the rise of terrorism. You have to deal with the particular grievances that obsess specific ethnic, religious or political groups. And above all, keep foreigners out of the process. Their interventions ALWAYS make matters worse. Which is why the terrorists love them so much.

By Terry Bush Editorial - So what’s the big secret? Considering the Harper government campaigned on transparency and accountability, we’ve yet to see either when it comes to our mission, or more accurately, the American mission we’ve joined against ISIL in Iraq and Syria. What are the cost estimates? Just what are we actually doing there? Will our aircraft be bombing Syria, a sovereign country? Would that not be considered an illegal invasion? Are we already there? Most Canadians are interested in what happens both in Canada and beyond our borders. We’re certainly not as insular as our neighbours to the south and our education system, at least when I went to school, was geared so we realized at a very young age that there was a world beyond our borders. Canadians know about the U.S. We know many things about Europe and we can also find Australia and New Zealand on a map. We’re a curious people and as such, most of us don’t enjoy being left in the dark about what our government is doing behind closed doors. The CBC reports that the Canadian military is ready to go into Syria if needed but there’s just one little problem. It would be considered illegal under our current laws and probably under international law as well. At a recent security forum in Halifax, the CBC reports that Defence Minister Rob Nicholson told the audience that, “the door is not closed” for Canadian jets to attack targets in Syria. Not to worry. Justice Minister Peter MacKay is on the job and is “working with other departments to examine certain scenarios.” What that means one could only guess but it sure sounds like our only option would be to emulate the Americans and change our laws to make it possible to attack a sovereign state. But given their recent track record in the Middle East, why would any country, other than Great Britain, think backing the Yanks in that part of the world will have a favourable outcome. If our air force bombed Syria, wouldn’t that make us the worst kind of hypocrites. After all, Prime Minister Stephen Harper recently called out Vladimir Putin at the G20 conference with something along the lines of, “I will shake your hand but get out of Ukraine.” Hopefully our PM said exactly the same thing to U.S. President Barrack Obama whose

country spent billions to overthrow the former Ukrainian government. But then again, as Obama trumpeted at West Point back in May, the U.S. is an indispensable and exceptional nation whose job it is to lead the world. Luckily most Canadians don’t suffer from this degree of hubris. So, just what is this mission costing us? Chief of the Defence Staff General Tom Lawson has provided the figures to the government. The U.S. has released their cost estimates to their citizens. So, when will our government let us know how many of our tax dollars have been spent, and will be spent in Iraq and potentially Syria. U.S. Senator and warmonger-in-chief John McCain attended the same Halifax forum calling our current strategy “delusional.” Whatever you think of McCain, his statement makes perfect sense considering there are no reliable “boots on the ground” other than the Syrian army. Bombing by itself does nothing, other than killing a few ISIS/ISIL members, while destroying some infrastructure and any civilians who happen to be in the area, a perfect recruiting tool for ISIL. If this strategy is not working, and it isn’t, how long will it be until we find ourselves sending in ground troops to support the aerial bombardment? It doesn’t take a military genius to realize that the two go hand in hand. Or do we even want to win this battle? Germany’s international broadcaster Deutsche Welle (DW) recently published a video report showing that ISIL’s supply line rolls into Syria virtually unimpeded through NATO member Turkey with hundreds of trucks crossing the border daily. Shouldn’t cutting off this supply route be the first thing on the to-do list of any serious military force if this really is the case. This whole ISIL, bombing missions only, vetting and arming the Syrian rebels scenario does seem to be a strange way of going about things if we’re seriously trying to demolish this terrorist group. Syrian regime change is definitely in the works. Just what else is going on behind the scenes? And will our government ever get around to telling us what it will cost? For my money, a few more Coast Guard ships to protect our borders and that long-promised Arctic deep-sea port would be money better spent. Or maybe on the veterans from wars already fought. Sure sounds like they’re being short-changed big time judging by recent reports.

Museum founder touched by photo donation By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - The Norwood Legion’s award-winning military museum has a trove of Canadian and British artefacts, even some from Germany, but until recently none from the United States, an anomaly that surprises founder Rob Gordon. Gordon, whose name is now attached to the museum in a special honour bestowed by Branch 300, was thrilled by a photo donation presented at the Community Care diner’s club by volunteer Doreen Clarke. The photograph is of Vera Allen, the sister of Donald E. Clarke, who was born and raised in Norwood but was a nurse in the United States Army serving at the Battle of Pearl Harbour. “This is a welcome addition to our museum,� said Gordon, a retired photographer and twice the Branch 300 Legionnaire of the Year. “It is an unusual one for us. Most of the photos and artefacts,

with a few exceptions like a German helmet, are all Canadian or British.� “The Americans were our allies so it’s very welcome,� said Gordon, who recently published his third book, Norwood Dressed in Khaki, and second directly related to Asphodel-Norwood’s military history. The book delves into letters sent to the Reverend Mansell Irwin by Norwood area soldiers during the Great War. The project commemorates the 100th anniversary of the start of World War I. The photo donation has piqued Gordon’s interest; he wants to find out more about Allen and how her life journey took her from Norwood to the United States Army. He wants to make sure a poppy is placed on her grave at the Norwood Cemetery where she was buried in 1977. “It would be interesting to know more about her.�

When Gordon was the Branch 300 youth education officer he often visited schools with veterans to talk about their service. With the passing of World War II veterans that is no longer possible. That sad fact is one of the motivations behind the creation of a museum that showcases the township’s rich military history for students and other visitors. It has been a well-received addition to the community. “But now I have a problem, I need more room,� says Gordon. During the lunch Gordon talked briefly about his life in England before he arrived in Canada in 1957. His wartime memory of Canadians in Britain is a fond one and began with he and his sister Ann’s rescue by Canadian troops during an air raid that hit Farnborough Hospital in Kent where his mother was taken to give birth to the family’s third child. Her son and daughter were placed in a nearby cottage

with eight beds in a room. “At night we slept under the bed with mattresses place alongside,� Gordon recalled. One night the hospital was hit but they were safely evacuated by Canadian troops stationed nearby. “The next morning I was able to see the hospital, a whole wing three stories high had been shattered.� In 1952, Gordon did his national service. Prior to being called up he’d done volunteer work with the British Red Cross at Queen Mary’s Hospital in Kent. Queen Mary’s had served as a Canadian military hospital during World War I specializing in facial reconstruction. During his service with the medical corps Gordon was stationed near Hannover in Germany where he worked closely with the 27th Canadian Infantry Brigade. “This association with Cana- Doreen Clarke presents a photo of Vera Allen to Rob Gordon of the Royal dians naturally influenced me to Canadian Legion Branch 300 in Norwood during a Community Care diner’s club gathering.

New council will address town hall accessibility issues News - Norwood - Decisions on accessibility options at the Norwood Town Hall will be left to the new municipal council and the 2015 budget process. Asphodel-Norwood council has discussed the province’s new accessibility legislation as it pertains to the town hall and has been given several options for work required by CAO Joe van Koeverden; one of those recommendations, a generator to provide backup power to the hall and municipal office, has just been completed. An initial recommendation that called for the redesign of the entrance to the front office by building an addition onto the asphalt area for better access has been accommodated by moving the reception desk back and “modifying� the counter to allow for wheelchair ac-

cessibility. This work was done at “no cost to the township,� says van Koeverden, and only an automatic door opener has to be installed. A comprehensive town hall plan had called for the repurposing of the current council chamber into three offices for better working conditions and more private space for senior staff but that option was “dropped� because of not being able to find a “reasonable alternative� for council meetings. Mr. van Koeverden says that staff has “adjusted to the space available.� The accessibility plan calls for the installation of automatic doors at various locations in the building: the front entrance, the administrative entrance and the council chamber entrance. There will also be renovations to the administrative washrooms to meet accessibility standards and van

New council will have to deal with NDHS sign By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - AsphodelNorwood’s new council will have to deal with the prospect of moving the new Norwood District High School electronic sign on Elm Street. The recently installed digital events sign has been assailed by Elm Street resident Shelley Gauthier whose house is directly across from the sign; she has

called it an “eyesore� and appealed to council to have the sign removed and has told the municipality she’s prepared to take legal action if necessary. A motion to have the sign moved off the municipal road allowance by Deputy-mayor Joe Crowley was not seconded and didn’t proceed to a vote. Deputy-mayor Crowley argued that the municipality was setting a “dangerous precedent�

by allowing the sign on a municipal road allowance. “I don’t care if it’s on the Tenth Line, or Third Line or at the high school. This will be used down the road,� Crowley said. “If you want the sign moved we will have to accept the cost to do it,� Mayor Doug Pearcy said. “I don’t know where we’d put it. The Fair Board has said they are willing to put it on Lot 19 on the other side of the fence or

March, 2014, and the municipality’s legal counsel ensured the township that the lease and the site location were legal, CAO Joe van Koeverden said. Following that Hydro One informed the municipality that the site location was too close to overhead wires and the site was re-located ten metres to the west. Mr. van Koeverden said [there was a] verbal agreement for the re-location to the new site and it was installed this past September; he told council during its last meeting that the municipality’s lawyer said the shift in location did satisfy the terms of use.

just leave it where it is and let the cards fall where they may.� “Wherever it is moved I don’t have a concern as long as it is not on a road allowance,� said Crowley, who added that he would favour the municipality picking up the cost of the move. Township council approved the sign project in September, 2013, and signed a letter of intent that outlined future liability and responsibility for complaints with respect to the operation of the sign. The letter of intent released the municipality from liability regarding the sign. A site lease was signed in

“I think you’re missing my point,� said Crowley. “This isn’t about [Mrs. Gauthier] or the high school; it’s about the road allowance.� Crowley reiterated his ongoing opposition to the sign’s location which he has maintained all along. A meeting with the property owner, the school and municipality did not resolve the issue. “If this is going to come back to the new council she has been told by somebody on the new council that the sign is going to be moved. Let the chips fall where they may.�

Thanks for the many positive comments received concerning my previous series of real estate tips presented earlier this year in The Independent under the title “DID YOU KNOW...” I am a firm believer that my responsibility as a Realtor acting on your behalf goes far beyond promoting myself through advertising my own listings. As a Realtor my aim is to provide a full service, part of which involves helping Buyers and Sellers understand the dynamics and trends of our local market. In our increasingly technological world, an over-abundance of information about any particular subject can be easily found. Real Estate is not the exception and although useful information can be found online, a lot may not be applicable to our local market. In this next series of real estate tips, I will be discussing many aspects involved in the sale of possibly your most important financial asset including common mistakes Buyers and Sellers make and how to avoid them. Stay tuned for these practical tips in upcoming editions of this paper!

Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus were the stars Saturday night when they took to the streets of Norwood for the annual AsphodelNorwood Fire Department parade which featured music, colourful floats, a treelighting by Pam Quinlan of Norwood and a spectacular fireworks display that lit up the sky thrilling the large crowd that congregated at the junction of Highway 7 and County Roads 40 and 45. Afterwards, Santa and Mrs. Claus greeted youngsters at the Norwood Town Hall.

The work remaining to be done is on the west side of the river north of the bridge. “We quit doing it ‌ to wait until the bridge thing was settled,â€? he said. “There wasn’t much sense in us doing a revitalization project and then having it torn up.â€? Northumberland County earlier this year voted in favour of a second major river crossing being built south of the existing bridge, between Alma and Second streets. The association’s membership consists of more than 100 business owners and tenants within a deďŹ ned area who pay a levy based on assessment that covers the association’s annual budget of $43,400. They, like taxpayers in general, “want value for their money, and we’re not seeing that,â€? Macmillan said. As the owner of a gas bar on Front Street North, he has his own ideas about the usefulness of the BIA to his business. “I believe that the money the BIA collects directly through the levy [as a result of] a forced membership ‌ could be spent more wisely,â€? he said.

News - Campbellford - Trent Hills has a new committee that will advise council on what should be done to revitalize Campbellford’s main business district. Mayor Hector Macmillan made the announcement at the inaugural meeting of the new council Monday morning when a bylaw was passed appointing members to various committees and boards. He explained afterward it “became very loud and clear through the election process ‌ that a lot of merchants in Campbellford want to see a revitalization of the downtown, and they’re looking to council for leadership. “Although it is a mandate of [the Campbellford Business Improvement Area (BIA) association] to be doing those things, it’s apparent they need help so we’re going to do that.â€? Both Warkworth and Hastings have long had committees in charge of revitalization efforts in their communities but “there was a misunderstanding [by the BIA as to] whose job it is to look after revitalizationâ€? in Campbellford, Macmillan said. The association has been invited to have a representative sit on the committee and BIA president Tom Kerr said in an interview later Monday he had submitted his name for the position. The committee “is an excellent idea,â€? he said. The BIA has been setting aside

Hastings Legion decks the halls at sale

I

have truly considered it an honour to be the Peterborough County Warden for these past years and to celebrate our wonderful County – its’ residents and businesses! As we move forward into 2015, it is appropriate to acknowledge some of the achievements and successes at the County of Peterborough in 2014:

Theo Van Will was one of the 18 vendors who transformed the Hastings Legion Branch 106 upstairs hall into a Santa’s den of crafty activity during the annual Last Chance craft bazaar and sale. Last Chance shoppers were also able to participate in a special downtown Hastings passport promotion that encouraged them to visit local establishments and become eligible for draw prizes from Water Lily, Ems #1 Dollar Plus, A Single Stitch and the village’s newest business Foot Prints Foot Care. Draw winners were Pat Ellis of Hastings, Nancy Tait of Toronto and Lucille Lee of Norwood who enjoyed the whole experience of visiting Hastings including the first-ever Hastings Waterfront Festival Christmas House Tour.

News - Campbellford Each year Community Care Northumberland (CCN) provides a special opportunity to the public to remember a loved one during the holiday season with its “Memory Tree.” “It is a simple ritual of remembrance to express the feelings of love we hold in our hearts for those who have died or a wish of strength to those who are struggling with illness,” stated Alicia Vandine, regional community relations co-ordinator, Community Care Northumberland. “Simply write the person’s name and your memory or wish for them on the ornaments that are provided and hang on it on the Memory Tree.” The Memory Tree locations, dates and times here include Campbellford Memorial Hospital, December 11, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.; Sharpe’s Food Market, December 17 from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Trent Hills Library, Campbellford Branch, on December 18 from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. “This year’s Memory Trees are sponsored by the Ian and Stella Tate Memorial Fund,” said Trish Baird, Executive Director of CCN. “The Tates were longtime hospice palliative care program supporters and believed that volunteers should be involved in visiting hospice programs.”

Donations are also appreciated and allow CCN to continue “the high quality” of Hospice Palliative Care services throughout Northumberland. Recognizing and honouring the person once again is a gentle way to include them in the holiday season, she said. Community Care Northumberland delivers a visiting hospice palliative care program that provides: compassionate and dignified care to individuals living with a life-threatening illness or end-of-life care; support to their family, friends and caregivers; support services are provided with accredited trained volunteers; support can be provided in various settings and can continue, following the client and family to whatever setting they go Services include oneto-one palliative, grief and bereavement support; caregiver/family respite; vigil support; support groups; memory boxes; special occasion sessions; infant memory boxes; library and resources; community education; information and training. For more information about this event or CCN’s Hospice Palliative Care program, contact Regional Hospice Co-ordinator Cheryl McFarlane at 905372-7356 or call CCN Campbellford office at 705653-0955.

Fleming College presentation showcases Mathison property News - Havelock - The Mathison conservation lands north of Havelock are ecologically rich and historically signiďŹ cant and could be a source of major educational and recreational experiences for visitors, say two Fleming College (Lindsay campus) ecosystem management students. Liam Pritchard and Jon Shaddock made several ďŹ eld trips to the 250-acre property,

which was bequeathed to the township in 2001, as part of their Credit for Product: Applied Projects course and presented a detailed report with recommendations on trail mapping, trail expansion, signage, maintenance, nature lookouts, environmental partnerships and an interpretive guide. It was just the kind of thought-provoking report the Mathison Ad Hoc Committee has been looking for, chair

Jim Martin said after the two students made their presentation which included a video and ďŹ nal document. “It’s really nice to see something move and we’ve been working so long to get something going,â€? said Martin. When the new committee is set up following the installation of the councilelect it will have some valuable information to review and interesting recommendations to consider, he said. “Now that we have something on paper you can physically look at it will help us get the vision out there. This is going to let people see what we’re looking at. Now we have something we can take to organizations like the school boards. This is just a start.â€? The Mathison property is one of the area’s jewels, says Martin, and the township is fortunate to have something like it so close to the village, the elementary school and within easy reach of Norwood District High School and those visiting the area. “Now we get to look at the physical picture,â€? he said of the Fleming report which included accurate GPS trail mapping and a recommended development of 2.7 kilometres of trails, 1.6 kilometres for multi-use, one kilometre strictly for walking and an additional 875 metres of new trail expansion. Council’s decision to build a toboggan hill on the property was “an easy way to get people over there,â€? Martin added. The students also proposed three lookout points over the “very signiďŹ cant wetlandsâ€? rather than the creation of a boardwalk which they said would be

Brunton said Hockey Day in Campbellford is also intended to remind people “just how much the arena is used and how much it means to the kids in the community.â€? The ďŹ rst game starts at 8 a.m. and the last one is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. All 160 or so players enrolled in minor hockey at the Tyke, Novice, Atom, Peewee, Bantam and Midget levels will be taking part. Teams from Stirling will provide most of the competition but Douro and Ennismore will also be represented. Flourish representatives will be present to answer questions about the campaign

very expensive and might have a negative impact on the wetland. “It’s a very important wetland and you just don’t want to disrupt that,â€? Pritchard said. “Not that the boardwalk couldn’t be done but we would recommend an environmental impact study be done [before any such decision].â€? The wetlands are a “valuable ecosystem,â€? helping with water ďŹ ltration and keeping the watershed “clean and healthy.â€? The duo noted the presence of trumpeter swans which are a “pretty unique sight.â€? The three lookout points recommended would provide extensive views of the wetland. During the mapping process they walked “every single trail they could ďŹ ndâ€? with a GPS unit and picked those they thought “were most suitable to be included in a trail system.â€? They eliminated those that were “either very short or went right off the property.â€? “All are very user-friendlyâ€? and not hilly with minimal maintenance. They recommend trail markers and blockades to prevent vehicles from accessing walking-only trails. They also recommended landowner agreements because “quite a bit of trailâ€? leaves the property. They discovered two hunting platforms which should be removed because it is a no-hunting zone. That’s a “huge liability,â€? Pritchard said. “There is a lot of potential with this property with time and effort.â€?

to raise $7 million for better recreation and leisure facilities, priority hospital equipment, and community development funding. Brunton said Mayor Hector Macmillan “is going be deejaying for the day ‌ and if it turns into a dance there that night that’s awesome.â€? There will be a prize table as well as 50/50 draws held each game, and the canteen operated by the hockey association’s Ladies Auxiliary will remain open throughout the day. Having “never done this before, we’re hoping it will build from here and continue on as a fund raiser for both Campbellford Minor Hockey and, hopefully, the Flourish campaign,â€? Brunton said. “Whether it turns into a new rec centre or refurbish the arena we have, it’s pretty important to us.â€? The association, which raised its registration fee per

player to $600 this season, up from $500 a year ago, is “doing [its] best to keep hockey as cheap as possible for kids in the community.� The fee was raised because “we just realized we were cutting it too close all the time,� Brunton said. Even with the increase, “registration for one kid doesn’t pay for their whole year. We have a great bank of sponsors that help us out.� The fee hike didn’t hurt registration. In fact, player numbers increased from around 130 and the association was able to put together two additional teams. “Campbellford Minor Hockey has a pretty good history in town and we want to keep it that way,� Brunton said. Admission is $2 per game for seniors and students, and $4 for adults. There is no charge for children under 12. A day pass is available for $6.

Long-time past presidents highlight service club fund-raising efforts

Fourteen past presidents who are still members of the Warkworth Community Service Club were honoured at a recent dinner meeting: front, from left, Bryce Allen (1973); John Ottewill (1986); George McCleary (1990); George Ryken (1997); Bob Sleeth (2000); back row from left, Dean Peters (2004), Martin Hare (2005); Kim McNeil (2007); Doug Harper (2009); Margaret Newman (2010); Tom Cunningham ( 2011/2012), Wayne Pearson (2003). Absent are: Elmer Laver (1962); Bill Osmond (2001); Sonny Lennon (2008/2013); Rick Norlock (1999). Photo: Mary Weilandt By Sue Dickens

News - Warkworth - “It’s been a very silent, powerful organization in the volunteer community here … well respected,” said Bryce Allen. He was talking about the Warkworth Community Service Club, (WCSC) and

was one of 14 past presidents who are still members, honoured at a recent dinner meeting. “It’s wonderful to be acknowledged by individuals in your community, but when it comes from your peer group it is even more special,” he said.

The club was started in 1947 by Allen’s father, Grant (insurance company owner), along with Bill Bowen (lumber company owner), and Archie O’Connor, a local bank manager. “It started originally as a Warkworth Businessmen’s Association and within a very short time it was opened up to everyone,” he explained. “The idea was to be of some benefit to the community,” he added. The group began by financially supporting the Guides, Scouts, Brownies and Cubs. When Allen came back home after graduating from college he went into business with his dad and it was a natural next step to join the club. “Belonging to the community was just one of those things you did,” he said. “When the community does well everyone does well and volunteering in a community is what sets our country apart from many other countries in the world … especially in rural Canada.” As part of the evening program four of

the past presidents spoke including Allen who talked about the years from 1947 to the 1970s. He spoke of the local health centre, built in 1973. The project leader was the WCSC which worked with local and provincial governments to get it built. John Ottewill, another past president, spoke about the 1980s and fund-raising events such as the Sandy Flat Maple Syrup Festival at which they raised money with pancake and sausage breakfast. Past President George McCleary spoke of the 1990s and Dean Peters spoke of their activities in the late 1990s and early 2000. During the time Peters was president WCSC adopted the recycling aspect of the Donnybook sale. It is a popular social event as well as a club fund raiser. It has also become Northumberland County’s largest Reduce, Recycle and Reuse event winning awards. Past President Kim MacNeil talked about what the club did for her when she moved to the community.

“She was one of the first females to join,” noted Allen. The comments by the past presidents highlighted much of the history of the club and its volunteer projects which now include everything from a Community Birthday Calendar to a fishing derby, golf tournament, lotteries and more. “You can set your tone or future by some of your history,” noted Allen. Current President Martin Hare also spoke the evening tribute to the club’s past presidents. “When our members saw these folks and what they’ve achieved by being involved with the club I hope it might encourage new members and those less reticent to take on responsibilities,” he said. Three other past presidents who are still members who were unable to attend are: Rick Norlock, Elmer Laver (a lifetime member who has been with the club for at least six decades) and Sonny Lennon.

Vipers’ epic losing streak ends with forfeit win By Bill Freeman

Sports - Norwood - The Norwood J.J. Stewart Vipers 26-game Allan Cup Hockey (ACH) Senior AAA losing streak is over after a forfeit win following the cancellation of their November 23 game against the ďŹ rst-place Stoney Creek Generals. Owing to a “miscommunicationâ€? between the Generals and their bus company, the team was not able to make the

trip to the Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre which left Vipers management scrambling to inform ticket holders and to deal with the fall-out from lost revenue and ice rental expenses. After a review of the incident and the ACH constitution the Generals were ďŹ ned for “failure to meet their scheduled requirement.â€? League commissioner Brent Ladds apologized to the Vipers and their fans

on behalf of the league and vowed to make sure a similar incident does not happen again. The Vipers were in the throes of a six-game losing streak to start the 2014 season after ďŹ nishing last season with a 20-game losing streak. The Vipers face the Allan Cup champion Dundas Real McCoys (4-3-0) December 7. Stoney Creek (6-5-0) remains in ďŹ rst place one point ahead of Whitby

(4-1-3) and two points ahead of Brantford (5-2-0). OHL veteran Shawn Snider (Sault Ste. Marie, Owen Sound, Sudbury) leads the Real McCoys in scoring, and is eighth in the ACH, with ďŹ ve goals and ďŹ ve assists. Stoney Creek’s Mike Ruberto (9-12-21) leads the league in scoring. Former league MVP Darren Doherty leads the Vipers in scoring with two

goals and four assists. The Vipers need to get a boost in special teams after going one for 33 on the powerplay. Their penalty kill has been the league’s best at 93.3 per cent. The December 7 game is turkey roll night for Vipers fans. Norwood travels to Whitby December 13 and Stoney Creek December 14 before ending 2014 with a home date against Whitby on December 21.

Sports - Campbellford - The Campbellford Curling Club was the setting last Saturday for the Zone 4 level of the Ontario Curling Association’s Tim Hortons Masters competition. The local team skipped by Barry Brown (Jack Mason, Dave MacDougall, Murray Fischer) competed alongside three others including Ivan Suddergaard’s team from the Cataraqui club, Barry Mitchell’s from the Loonie Sports Club (a rink just north of Kingston), and Mike Schneider’s from the Royal Kingston Curling Club.

The finals in the OCA’s Tim Hortons Master Men’s competition will be played at the Stirling Curling Club January 7 to January 11. The Campbellford club was also the site of the Pepsi Junior Men’s competition and four teams were on the ice, three from the Kingston area which included a team skipped by Joshua Henderson of Cataraqui, a rink led by skip Brady Lumley, also of Cataraqui, and a rink led by skip Adam Thompson, of the Garrison rink along with a rink skipped by Mac Calwell of the Quinte club. “A” winner was the Calwell

Rebels lose at home

Sports - Campbellford Four straight goals by the visitors proved the Campbellford Rebels’ undoing Saturday as they fell 5 - 2 to the Picton Pirates. An unassisted goal by Colin Doyle and a power-play marker by Eathan McDougall, with just 46 seconds left in the game, accounted for

the whole of Campbellford’s offence, which ranks third in the Empire B Junior C Hockey League – the same spot the team occupies in the standings, tied with the Napanee Raiders. Campbellford’s lone bright spot was the penalty kill; the Pirates were blanked seven times while holding the man advantage.

In the Pepsi Junior Women’s competition there were two teams, one from the Quinte club led by skip Lindsay Bell and one from the Stirling club led by skip Kayla Gray. The “A” winner was the Bell team. The “B” winner was the Gray team. The Junior Regionals will be held at the Quinte Curling Club in the next few weeks. The Campbellford Curling Club will again host the Fairfield Marriott Challenge and the Best Western Challenge both January 2 to 4, in the new year.

The visitors outshot the Rebels 31 26, and prevented Cole Mahoney from earning his tenth win in net. Reilly Dunn was in goal for Campbellford’s 9 - 4 lambasting of the Storm in Deseronto last Friday. Jeremiah Doherty scored twice and added two assists to lead the Rebels offence. Doyle had two goals and one assist. Also scoring were Austin Fry, Riley Reynolds, Jon Samis, Corey Lasko and Gerald Bilker. Etinene Pelleteir collected three assists. Doherty leads the league with 21 goals and is tied with two others, Port Hope’s Dan Lagrois and Jacob Spicer, for the most points at 32. Doyle is tied with Port Hope’s Tyler Davey for ninth spot, with eight goals and 15 assists. Campbellford won’t have to wait long to exact revenge for its tenth loss of the season, as it travels to Picton December 4. The Rebels play host to the Raiders on Saturday. Each team had 25 points to start out the week. Game time is 7:30 p.m.

Olympic skater and flag bearer shares passion with youth By Bill Freeman

Sports - Norwood - Few athletes get to carry their country’s flag into the Olympic stadium and those who do have a special place in their native land. Figure skater Tugba Karedemir was in that spotlight during the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, carrying the Al bayrak (red flag) of Turkey during the opening ceremonies and last week she shared her passion and skills with 30 young skaters from seven area clubs during the eighth annual On The Leading Edge clinic in Norwood. She was joined by fitness instructor Cait Lynch and physiotherapist who led off-ice sessions which complemented the skating. Now coaching junior and senior national and international level skaters at Barrie’s Mariposa School of Skating, Karedemir finds working with young, beginning skaters “really gratifying. “You see them fall in love with the sport; you see them do something they didn’t think they could do. Watching them fall in love with the sport I love is really cool. I see myself in their faces,” she said. “It’s a great thing for me to be able to give back a little bit because the sport has given me so much. I’ve

travelled around the world, met lots of people and seen cool things and now I live in Canada which is a huge deal.” Karedemir is a trail blazer in Turkey. When she was in kindergarten they opened the first skating rink in Ankara and she plunged into a sport which soon became her favourite. She would eventually represent Turkey at European World championships and then the Olympics moving to Canada for the world-class coaching available here. As a five-year-old she remembers embracing the “freedom” of skating. “I loved being able to dance on the ice. That was my thing. I did ballet and gymnastics at the same time but definitely skating was what caught my attention.” The 2006 and 2010 Olympics were “experiences I don’t think you can top,” she says. She admits to being “so nervous” in Torino. “I kind of didn’t feel I belonged. I was shocked and awed by the whole thing. It was a month of craziness.” She was much more comfortable in Vancouver especially because it was in Canada where she was now living. “It was the capstone of my career in

competitive figure skating.” She got to hang out with some of the world’s best athletes including the dream team hockey players who were real “celebrities.” At the Norwood clinic Karedemir offered “a little bit of everything,” from technical to the artistic. “You try to encourage them and give them something exciting to think about because it’s boring sometimes. You give them something new to work on and to look forward to. We’ll see what they discover about themselves. It’s a bit of an exploration of self as well.” There are plenty of life lessons to be gained through sport, Karedemir says. “It’s kind of a micro-library of life. You learn dedication, time-management, stick-to-it-iveness. You learn how to win and how to lose and how to work with other people and how to Two-time Olympic figure skater and flag bearer for Turkey in 2006, Tugba Karedemir was the on-ice be uncomfortable and be okay with instructor at the eighth annual On The Leading Edge clinic hosted by the Norwood and District Skatit.

YMCA Peace International Medallion presented By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Ellie Barker was surprised to be nominated for the YMCA International Peace Medallion which she accepted November 27 at the YMCA of the City of Quinte West. “I was surprised,” she said beaming. “And thanks to Marty for the song!” Last year’s recipient Marty Halloran sang a lively tune dedicated to Ellie who has been involved in the community for more than 60 years. “Andy Forgie was before me,” Halloran said. “Those were difficult shoes to fill and I don’t even play a guitar. But I have a song for you Ellie. I am privileged to work with you.” Ellie was accompanied at the reception by her daughter Mary Ann and son-in-law Cliff. Also in attendance was Bob Gallagher, president and CEO of the YMCA of Central East Ontario, Dave Allen, vice president of Operations, and Ron Riddell, general manager of the YMCA of Quinte West. Mayors John Williams and Neil Ellis were also present, along with Councillor Fred Kuypers, as well as several friends and well-wishers, including a medley of cheery pink-shirted Leaders-in-Training greeting everyone at the door. Refreshments were served as the ceremony took place looking out onto the pool. Dave Allen said the medallion is about reaching out and inviting everyone to act for peace. Martha Palm-Leis and Deirdre Cleveland from the YMCA sang a lovely, uplifting version of Leonard Cohen’s famous song Hallelujah. Allen noted that the YMCA of Quinte West’s Strong Kids Campaign has exceeded its goal this year, thanks to all the contributors. President Bob Gallagher said Peace Week has been celebrated by YMCAs around the globe for the past 30 years. It

is important to teach youth about peace. “Each person has a role to play to promote peace,� he said. Gallagher talked about the partnership in Nicaragua where volunteers work with youth in the community. “They have no wonderful building like us,� he said. “It’s just a clay or brick building with no windows or doors. It’s a different world.� He noted the YMCA in Nicaragua gives youth a respite from a world of violence, drugs and alcoholism just across the street from the centre. “We must see, act and pray to be peacemakers,� he said.

Partners unite to ease “staggering” medical transit bill By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - Two service organizations and Community Care have teamed up to help ease the “staggering” transportation costs a local resident will face while being treated for throat cancer. The Norwood Lions, the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 300 and Community Care Norwood have united in an effort to offer relief for a Branch 300 member as he braces for a sevenweek, five-days-a-week travel schedule to Kingston General Hospital for specialized chemotherapy. The Community Care client has already made journeys for specialist appointments and the dental work that must be done before the major treatment. The cost of each trip to Kingston is $120 which over the course of the seven-week treatment regime will reach at least $4,200 not counting trips that have already been made for preliminary appointments. The Lions and Legion each donated $500 and Community Care has been working with the Peterborough chapter of the Canadian Cancer Society for a twice-a-week travel subsidy of $111. The $111 is the cost of a bus pass from Peterborough to Kingston but must be paid up-front by the patient who’s facing financial struggles and has no family

in the area who could help with transportation. Kingston General has a fund that could provide up to $500 that would be paid directly to Community Care which is providing the transportation, says Kelly Small, a program support worker with Community Care. That Kingston funding source has approved one trip per week. The client is “facing a very big challenge,” says Small. “It is a staggering cost [and] he is not the only person we serve who faces this type of situation. “The service clubs stepping up and helping somebody like that is so wonderful and greatly appreciated by the client. It really is amazing,” Small said. The client was facing a situation where he couldn’t afford the transportation to receive the critical care he needs, she added, and will need at least 35 round-trip drives to Kingston not including the travelling he’s done for pre-treatment appointments. Legion Branch 300 service officer Doug Pearcy says their primary mandate is to make sure veterans are receiving the assistance they need but approved the request from a fellow member experiencing a medical crisis and financial challenge. “The most important part

ally need to be aware that these situations exist in our community and we may be asked for more help in the future because it’s a difficult thing.” Small hopes that in the future more of these sorts of treatments will be done closer to home so that long, expensive journeys are unKelly Small of Community Care Norwood thanked the Norwood Lions and Royal Canadian Legion necessary. “It would be a help, espe- Branch 300 for their $500 donations to help ease transportation expenses for a client facing an cially to those struggling.” extended travel schedule to Kingston for cancer treatment.

Legion planning annual visit to veterans at Sunnybrook Hospital By Sue Dickens

News - Warkworth - Christmas will come early for veterans at Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto when the members of Warkworth Legion Branch 380 continue their tradition of taking gifts for them to open. The largest veterans care facility in Canada working in close partnership with Veterans Affairs Canada, Sunnybrook offers long-term and complex hospital care to 500 veterans from World War II and the Korean War. Residents live as independently as possible in Kilgour wing, and in the George Hees wing within a supportive environment, when their needs can no longer be met in the community. The visits by Warkworth Legion

Ontario shoppers still love their flyers: new study

members are something to which the veterans really look forward each year. Their trips started in the late 1990s, inspired by past president Roger Brummell, who will be heading to the hospital sometime in the next week with several others from the branch. Trudy Nelson, membership chair at the Warkworth Legion for many years, “is the driving force behind the visits now,” noted Brummell. “We present gifts to a whole wing of veterans. Last year there were about 36,” he said. “We go door to door and meet the veterans and wish them a very Merry Christmas … but their smiles and responses are not over the gifts … they are just happy to have us visit them,” he added. The small group of Legion members takes not only gifts but bags of respect and admiration for the veterans who fought in the wars. “It’s all about the visit for

them,” Brummell said. He has many memories from the visits made over the years and tells a story of a veteran he met when visiting Sunnybrook who heard that Legion members from Warkworth were in his ward. This veteran knew the former druggist in town, Gordon Hutchinson. He was his captain in the war. “They stayed connected and lived beside each other on Little Lake Road,” said Brummell, remembering the tale. It’s moments like that and others which add special meaning to the trips to Sunnybrook for all involved. And one of those groups involved again this year is the 2nd Warkworth Brownies who spent two meetings making Christmas cards for the Christmas baskets the Legion distributes to the veterans at Sunnybrook. “This was the second year for the card making and the girls had a fun time creating their Christmas wishes. This

year the girls ended up with 52 cards,” said their leader Tracy Russell. “The children’s Christmas cards add a personal touch to the gift bags and is very much appreciated by the veterans, especially by those without families,” Brummell said. Donations by local businesses throughout Trent Hills and money from the Legion’s poppy fund help make it possible.

Where do you get ideas for the perfect holiday gift? From Pinterest to Instagram, the digital world is awash with places shoppers can go to discover unique and thoughtful gift ideas. But not all shoppers have rushed to source their gift ideas from the latest social media hotspot. A new study reveals that almost half of Ontario shoppers have used print flyers as a source of gift giving inspiration. The study also shows that while people may spend more time online than ever before, 97 per cent of Ontario shoppers still read and rely on printed flyers, and many of them—86 per cent—take the time to read their flyers on a weekly basis. “You may think that in our digital world print flyers would factor less in consumer decision making, but we found the exact opposite,” said Ian Oliver, president, Metroland Media. “Shoppers became quite emotional when we asked them how they use flyers. And as it turns out, flyers continue to play a significant role in how we decide what we want to purchase.” In the survey, Ontario shoppers revealed that they consider flyers to be a critical guide for finding deals and learning what products are out there when they need to make a purchase. While the most popular kinds of flyers are sent to customers from grocery and mass merchant chains, at least half of Ontario shoppers depend on the flyers they receive from department stores, fashion retailers, sporting goods and electronics stores.

Cancer Clinic named after Dr. MacIntosh

News - Belleville - The place Belleville cancer patients go to receive treatments now bears the name of one of the people who made such a clinic possible. Belleville General Hospital celebrated the opening of the Dr. Douglas A. MacIntosh Cancer Clinic on Saturday. Dozens of hospital supporters showed up for the event, which was a fitting

tribute to the local doctor’s forty-plus year commitment to health care, particularly the field of oncology. The bright and spacious clinic is just south of the hospital’s main Dundas Street East entrance and its doors are just past a hall which has photos of donors who made the clinic possible. Saturday’s ceremony came in the midst of Belleville

General Hospital Foundation’s $7-million fund-raising campaign for cancer care. The naming of the new clinic was meant to coincide with the achievement of the first $1 million being raised. The final $100,000 of that $1 million was raised at the recent fall gala. And probably no one is more impressed with the new facility than MacIntosh, who in a one-

on-one interview on Monday called it a “first-class set up” comparable to clinics at larger hospitals in Ottawa or Toronto. “It’s amazing, really,” MacIntosh said, when asked what it feels like to see his name on the wall. “It’s a real honour, believe me.” Sitting in a chair just outside the clinic, MacIntosh couldn’t go more than a couple of minutes without bumping into hospital staff he knew. He greeted several old colleagues with hugs and smiles. It’s a sign of the respect he’s earned since coming to Belleville General Hospital in 1966. He opened the hospital’s first oncology clinic in 1972, a move that allowed those living with tumourrelated cancers to receive chemotherapy treatments in Belleville, as opposed to travelling to Kingston or Toronto for treatments. In fact, in the 1960s, MacIntosh said, chemotherapy treatments were used only in hematology departments, for those being treated for cancers associated with the blood, such as lymphoma or leukemia. But new medical breakthroughs were allowing chemotherapy to work on tumour-related cancers, such as breast cancer or colon cancer, after the patients had received surgery. These advances excited MacIntosh over the course of his career. “Before, chemotherapy was like a shot gun,” said MacIntosh, explaining that

the treatments were once directed to several areas of the body. “Now, through the study of genetics, they’re able to determine, which cancer cells are more responsible to certain types of drugs.” MacIntosh worked steadily in the oncology clinic up until the early 1990s, when his own battle with prostate cancer caused him to reduce work hours. But the work of the clinic has continued with the leadership of Dr. Roger Levesque, who took over as the hospital’s head of oncology. MacIntosh says he has great respect for Dr. Levesque. “I call him the super doc,” he said. He also praised colleagues who were instrumental in starting the oncology clinic in the 1970s, including nurse Donna Holoway and auxiliary volunteers Sylvia Buskerd and Ruth Weber. 
 “When I wasn’t sure if I could go on, these three were pillars of strength,” MacIntosh said, reciting the speech he delivered Saturday. “They gave me courage.” He also praised the leadership of Dr. Bruce Cronk, a senior doctor at BGH who mentored MacIntosh when he was new on the scene. Now at age 83, MacIntosh has retired from practising health care, but he’s still a well-known face at BGH. His picture appears on promotional material that BGHF is using to encourage donations and a large poster of him is shown by the doors of the clinic. It asks potential

donors to “be a Christmas angel” and “join Dr. MacIntosh to make cancer better.” The decision to compare MacIntosh to an “angel” likely comes from his commitment to cancer patients. “If anybody came to me, I was eager to make the right diagnosis and get them on the right track,” MacIntosh said. “I was dedicated to staying with the patient, right to the bitter end.”

St. Thomas choirs present a Christmas festival.

Events - Belleville - The Choirs of St. Thomas Anglican Church, Belleville, will be presenting a Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols at St. Thomas Anglican Church on Sunday afternoon, December 21. The service will be presented in the traditional style of King’s College, Cambridge. The junior and senior choirs, conducted and accompanied by music directors Matthieu Latreille and Francine Nguyen-Savaria, will present Christmas carols and anthems. The congregation is also invited to join in singing some all-time favourites. “The idea of Christmas magic and enchantment is somewhat cliché and over-rated. And yet, magic happens during the Festival of Lessons and Carols. Whether we believe in God or not, the story of the Nativity, and the music it inspired are always moving,” said music director Matthieu Latreille. This Festival of Lessons and Carols holds a special place in the music directors’ hearts. They confess that this service is what first attracted them to the Anglican Church and something they have been dreaming of doing ever since they have discovered it. They have presented with success two editions of this event at St. Ambrose Episcopal Church in Claremont, California, and are thrilled to be able to offer the Festival of Lessons and Carols in Belleville. The Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols will start at 4:30 p.m. A reception will follow during which light refreshments will be served.

TRAVEL

Exploring South America’s Lima, Peru

By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - When my wife and I travelled to Peru with Indus Travels <http:// www.industravels.ca/>, we actually flew to Lima, the capital and largest city in Peru, with a population of more than 9 million. Since we arrived at about 2 a.m. and were departing again the very next morning, flying across the Andes to Cusco (the former capital of the Inca Empire and the oldest continuously inhabited city of the Western Hemisphere), we didn’t see much of the city at all—just an airport hotel, the Costa del Sol Ramada. However, when we returned to Lima at the end of our tour, we did find time to explore this fascinating city, and we checked out many of its major attractions. Lima is located in a valley and overlooks the Pacific Ocean. It’s at a much lower elevation than many of Peru’s other major tourist destinations, such as Machu Picchu, Cusco, and Lake Titicaca, so it’s a logical place to begin/ end a tour of the country, as there’s not any serious concern with altitude sickness here. Also, this city is often referred to as the “Gastronomical Capital of the Americas,” so what you can expect is a plethora of fine and varied dining opportunities. While touring this bustling

metropolis, we explored both its colonial and modern sections, and noticed a great variety of architectural styles. In particular, we discovered a lot of balconies, for they were apparently very popular here during the colonial period. We spent much of our time in the very centre of the historic district, at Plaza de Armas, for here we found a beautiful park-like square surrounded by several important buildings: the Archbishop’s Palace of Lima, Municipal Palace of Lima, Government Palace (residence of the President of Peru), and the Cathedral of Lima (with its chapel containing the remains of Francisco Pizarro, the founder of Lima). Just a block away is the San Francisco Church, where we were greeted by a multitude of pigeons clinging to its two exterior towers. It was rather entertaining to simply watch the throng of pigeons at play here and roosting. As we entered this particular church, we learned that Lima’s first cemetery was down below, in the church’s catacombs, and we were able to descend down here and actually see the piles of bones and skulls that line the narrow hallways underneath. It’s estimated more than 70,000 people were buried down here, and it’s a rather macabre display. Also nearby is the Torre Tagle Palace, with its carved

columns and two large, intricately designed wooden balconies (arguably the most beautiful balconies in the entire city). It’s presently used as the Peruvian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We also visited Lima’s renowned Larco Museum, which was founded in 1926, and it’s housed in a striking 18th century royal mansion that was, itself, built atop a 7th century pre-Columbian pyramid. It’s quite a setting, and it’s surrounded by beautiful gardens, so we had to spend some time checking these out, too. The museum itself displays over 3,000 years of development of Peruvian pre-Columbian history, in a series of chronologically sequenced galleries, and there’s a great gold and silver collection from Ancient Peru— and a famous and popular erotic archaeological collection, too. We even checked out the museum’s crammed storage rooms, for there are far more historically significant items stashed away for which there’s just not the space to display properly in the museum itself. To learn even more about Peruvian history, you might check out the Museum of the Nation, the Peruvian National Museum of Archaeology, Anthropology, and History, the Museum of the Inquisition and Congress, and the Gold of Peru Museum. You might also visit Lima’s City Walls Park, where sections of the 17th century colonial fortifications are still on display. Our half-day bus

The Miraflores district is a more upscale area of the city, so expect to find highend boutiques and restaurants, beautiful parks and beaches, modern skyscrapers, and expensive private homes. While exploring this intriguing city, we noticed some rather unusual situations, such as witnessing a dog walker on a bicycle, with eight leashed dogs walking along beside him. We also saw a vulture sitting atop one of the city’s statues, and a taxi driver, on a very warm day, with a cooling fan mounted on his dash and pointing directly at him. There may not have been any air conditioning for his passengers, but he was certainly going to keep cool.

They do have a box for overflow which already contains several baby sets. “There are some big-hearted people and we’re very excited about it. We want to give back to the community as best we can so this is the way we can do it by giving to the kids.”

News - Norwood - “Big-hearted” knitters have transformed the Norwood Post Office’s Christmas mitten tree. “It’s very overwhelming; we’ve had a lot of people drop things off,” says Joan Montgomery. This is the third year the post office has set up a tree and welcomed donations of hats and mittens and other knit-

ted wear which are then given to Norwood District Public School, St. Paul Catholic Elementary School and the Hucklebug Childcare Centre. Additional winter wear is given to the Norwood Lions Christmas hamper program. The Lions have a box at the post office for toy donations which will be collected December 16. Last year, the post office donated 11 dozen items and Montgomery says they hope to exceed that number this year. Montgomery says that people were asking about donations well before the tree went up a few weeks ago. “We want to go above that. We’ve done very well.” Montgomery says there are “some dedicated knitters” in the community who are eager to support the cause. One lady, she noted, dropped a full bag of mitts and hats as well

bouncing up and down with his renditions of favourite songs including some Christmas nuggets to welcome the season with traditional instruments along with his famous kitchen sink tuba and washboard. The Early Years Centre also had a clothing and book exchange as well as a craft corner.

The Royal Bank offered information on educational savings plans and the Salvation Army welcomed guests to their regular community luncheon. All in all a good time was had at the Hastings Civic Centre.

Seniors will bid sad farewell to bingo By Bill Freeman

News - Hastings - The Hastings Seniors will bid a sad farewell to their long-standing tradition of Monday night bingo on December 8. “It’s a sad day for all of us,” says bingo co-ordinator Alice Hall. “There are a lot of seniors who come and other people who don’t go anywhere else [and] this is the only entertainment for them. It’s a shame; I wish there was something we could do for them.” With crowds down and expenses up, the agonizing decision to end the bingo was made by the club. Seniors bingo in Hastings has been an institution since the club was formed in 1972, says Hall, who has been bingo co-ordinator for over a decade and recipient of a Trent Hills Seniors Award for her work with the club. “Attendance has been low all year round. The cost of doing bingo is quite expensive, people don’t realize how expensive.”

Over the last two years Hall says they’ve had 14 jackpot winners representing an outlay of $14,000 in prizes from those jackpots, a nice windfall for lucky players. Hall, long-time club secretary, has been a member for 15 years and active in bingo since her first year. In the early days she says it was “mostly food and stuff like that, not much money.” But it grew into a much-welcomed activity. Hall hopes that sometime in the future it might be revived. “I’ve been talking to a lot of people and they’re very disappointed, as much as I am. I put my heart and soul into it. I love what I do [but] it’s been a challenge.” Hall notes that low bingo attendance is not just a Hastings phenomenon and that other communities are struggling at the gate. At one time, Hastings was able to support three separate bingos: se-

niors, the Hastings Lions and Legion Branch 106. “Who knows how long [other communities] are going to be able to do it.” The Hastings Seniors still host popular euchre and bid euchre gatherings every week with a monthly tournament.

The band was also nominated for a 2013 Juno with their album My father and the Hunter. Joining the band on the gig will be Sam Cash and The Romantic Dogs.

IN MEMORIAM

In Memory Velma Dafoe My wife Velma for 51 years. The love of my life gone 5 years. I couldn’t have found a better aprtner and wife. We had the relationship and commitment few can achieve and the rest dream of. The 1st year in the army was tough financially, but it got better quickly. Through good jobs and investments we were able to do any and everything we ever dreamed of. We spent 50 years traveling the world at every opportunity. In 1985 my wife bought me a new Harley Davidson, we flew it to Europe on a 747 and toured Europe for the summer. The most important thing I ever said was our wedding vows - Love, Honour, and Cherish, and I practiced that every day. I was away many times in the army, Germany, Cyprus, Jerusalem, Beirut, and many other places for extended periods of time. And always engraved in my mind when I looked in the mirror were the words - Love, Honour and Cherish. One last word of advice... Hug your wife and tell her you love her daily, that chance may be gone in a heart beat. And if you smoke.... Quit. God gave man no greater reward after a life time of commitment then to spend your twilight years in each others arms watching the sun go down. John Dafoe CL442117

Lifestyles - For many folk, it makes sense that the Christmas tree becomes a permanent part of their estate after the holiday season. There is a bit of understanding and planning required to make this a successful exercise. According to Craig McKinley of NCSU, there are four primary reasons a holiday tree does not fare so well: 1) The tree species selected

diness after which it succumbs to freezing temperatures when planted outdoors. Here is a Q&A session on how to care for your live tree: What do I feed my tree? The short answer is you don’t; but, you do need to water it. Unlike a “free-range” tree, the roots can’t roam through the soil to take in moisture. If the rootball is small enough you can set the tree in a pail or laundry tub and completely immerse the rootball. Once the air bubbles stop rising to the surface, take away the water and let the rootball drain. Even if the tree is dormant, it will still need a good drink of water. Afterwards, you can slip the rootball, in its original container, into a large plastic bag to keep everything else clean and dry. Don’t tie the top of the bag, leave it open so the roots can breathe. By the way, never lift up the plant by its stem, lift the pot. How big can the live tree be? As small as you can live with per reason Number 2. For the tree itself, five feet tall is given as the best maximum height. So the answer now relates to your strength and whether or

as well buy it in the fall and plant it then. Keep it close by the celebration site, perhaps an unheated front porch or a back deck. At the right time, trundle it into the place of honour, said place should not be on top of the hot air register. Every home has a cold spot and that is the best place. If you can, bring it in on December 24 and slip it back outside on December 26. How do I transition to outdoors? If the rootball is still frozen, you can put it inside an unheated garden shed where it will get very little light or in a sheltered area (no wind, not full sun) in your yard. Spray with an anti-desiccant and use a light burlap wrap. Experienced planters will dig a hole long before the ground freezes and store the soil in a heated garage, basement or mudroom. They fill the hole with leaves or straw and cover with a piece of plywood. Planting is a simple process of uncovering the hole, removing the “fill,” and planting as per normal using the thawed soil, watering well, and using the filling as mulch. One stake on the windward side is a good idea.

not the tree/fridge dolly fits through the doorways. How long can it stay inside?” It depends upon the environment at the store where you bought the tree. If the tree has been kept inside in the warmth, it may stay inside as long as you want. It is just a big houseplant taking up a lot of space and taking up a lot of water. If it has been kept outside in the cold, or perhaps an unheated shed, then the tree will be in “season” with the environment. The challenge, when it comes into your warm home, is to not change that synchronicity. In other words, it is dormant and you want to keep it that way. Some knowledgeable nursery folk suggest seven to ten days indoors but that would be a maximum time, otherwise the tree will “awaken,” so to speak, and will need to be treated like a regular houseplant. When outdoor time arrives, you will need to harden it off before planting. So a good answer is: as short a period of time as possible. You do need to have it inside for all of the holiday purposes, otherwise you might just
