Editorials, sometimes they are easy to write and sometimes they are not. This month’s editorial has been a challenge. I am told Uxbridge is quiet in July but I don’t see it. There is so much to do, it is a fantastic time to meet people, walk the sidewalks and hike the trails, to name a few. I find it a particularly friendly time. Lets face it most of us love to get out in the summer air, whether we shop, jog, cycle, walk, swim or skateboard, everyone loves to be outside. It is really quite amazing that this happens, lets face it we are Canadian, we know what snow is, in fact many of us love it (not me). So why is it that we almost hibernate in the winter? We don’t stroll downtown, our trip to any store is run in and run out, snow seems to make us want to rush home, curl up in front of the fire and stay warm. Now I bet you are wondering why I am talking about snow when we had such a long winter, especially when it is finally summer. Well let me share. When you spend as much time as I do speaking with people, you get a feel for what is happening and the general thought is Uxbridge is quiet in the summer, but why??? There is so much going on, we have camps, we have art shows, we have the trails. The historical train runs, you can go fishing, you can hang out having an ice cream, you can enjoy the menus and atmosphere on the patio of the many restaurants in town. So why is it quiet? Or is it? We hibernate in the winter then summer is quiet, I don’t believe it!!!! For fun I am going to photograph all the things you can do in Uxbridge in July, so check out what I come up with, I will share with you on our one line version, my photographic journal of life in Uxbridge in July. You may be surprised and hopefully you may consider staying in Uxbridge and enjoying all it has to offer. Try to vacation at home, it is much cheaper and goes a long way in boosting your local economy. This will be an introduction to our online version of Uxbridge Town Talk. We will have a few extra pages for those who read online, but those that don’t please don’t panic, our printed copy will be the same, nothing will change and we will continue to offer our articles, recipes, calendar and story filled version mailed right to your home.

My name is Chelsea Kerstens and I am a 26 year old Uxbridge native that is faced with the stigma and challenges associated with living with Epilepsy. I suffered my first seizure at the age of 14 and went undiagnosed for nearly 4 years. After my diagnosis, I was put on medication to try and control my seizures. I went through a grueling trial and error process with medication for the next 6 years until my doctor finally found the appropriate combination of medication to help control my Epilepsy. The physical toll my seizures take on my body is immense; with every seizure I lose consciousness, fall to the ground, and have intense muscle contractions. I wake up confused, tired, and feeling as if my body is broken. Because of my seizures, I have broken a cheekbone, dislocated both shoulders multiple times, and fractured my wrist. I have fallen down a flight of stairs, woken up with extensive memory loss, suffered many concussions, and lost months of my life to a hospital bed. As horrible as the toll of my illness is to me mentally and physically, it is equally matched emotionally. When my seizures became a regular occurrence in high school, I quickly became the girl that students and teachers alike did not want to have in their class. Normal life consisted of hospital visits, ambulance rides, recovery from injuries, as well as suffering a feeling of isolation from the life I formally enjoyed. I was a risk, a disruption, and an inconvenience. Simply put, with every seizure came devastation. It was when my seizures were at their worst that I reached a very defining moment in my life. With the incredible support system that I have in my family and very close friends, I was able to see that I needed to stand up and be heard and become an advocate for myself. I realized that there were clearly two roads in my life to choose from; one in which I could let this disease, that was completely beyond my control, deteriorate me, and the other being that I could accept what was going on, move forward, and refuse to let Epilepsy define me as a person. From that point on, I have lived my life to the fullest and without limitation. I surround myself with positive thoughts and positive people and have now been seizure free for two and a half years. I also volunteer with Epilepsy Durham Region (EDR) and I am an E-Action leader, advocating for myself and others living with Epilepsy. In hopes of eradicating stigma associated with this disease, and building education and awareness for Epilepsy, I have recently committed to EDR’s Epic Climb of the Grand Canyon this coming October. When I heard about this campaign, one single thought ran through my head – I need to do this. I need to do this to shine a light on a disorder that is so often ignored and misunder-

youthful notions

stood. I need to do this for the people who have lost their life to a seizure. I need to do this for the people living with Epilepsy who are unable to have a voice and advocate for themselves. I need to do this for the families of people living with Epilepsy so that they can see that “family”extends beyond the walls of their home and into the community. I need to do this for myself, to reaffirm my strength and abilities and all of the positive accomplishments in my life. I have faced many uphill battles in my life and the Grand Canyon is next! It surprises people to know that 1 in 100 people in Canada live with Epilepsy. Do you know 100 people? We live in the shadows, we live in isolation, and we live with a lack of compassion and understanding. With every word I write, I hope to create a change. Epilepsy is a disease that I have, but it does not define who I am, and it is my aim that through my journey this message will resonate not only with others living with Epilepsy, but with the entire community. To help me with my goal of educating our community about the struggles faced by people living with Epilepsy, please visit www.epicclimb.ca and www.epilepsydurham.com.

faces of uxbridge

| allan mcgillivray |

BY ELAINE LEIGH

Allan McGillivray is a historian, musician and artist and we are excited to profile him this month in “Faces of Uxbridge”. Allan and his wife Caroline were gracious enough to invite me into their unique home and share not only its beauty, but some wonderful stories about living life in a church. The McGillivray’s raised their children Bethany and Matthew in Zephyr, in what was at one time home to St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church. This historic church was built in 1881 and has a notable history; former Pastor Ewan MacDonald, was Lucy Maud Montgomery’s husband. There was many a Sunday when Lucy Maud herself, taught local children their Sunday school lessons. Some of the original pews still reside in the McGillivray’s Church home, and the pulpit is in its original location, but is now surrounded by books and Allan’s amazing art. Allan began his career as a teacher with the Toronto school board, teaching in the North Regent Park area of Toronto, and eventually moving to Ajax. As we all know Uxbridge is not an easy town to leave and the desire to return is common. No exception, Allan returned to his home area after a few short years in Ajax to continue his teaching career at Scott Central in Sandford. Allan and I chatted about his time as a teacher and the beginning of his passion for all things historical. It was a college project on the history of Mount Albert, and the discovery of the one-room schoolhouse registers that sparked his interest and “Allan the historian” was born. His first historical document reads as an incredible account of the oneroom schoolhouses within the Uxbridge area. Allan’s writing did not stop there; he is the author of several books that pertain to the History of Uxbridge, positioning him as a local expert on Uxbridge past. Allan has accomplished more than being a local historian, he was voted Citizen of the year in 1987, he won the Grumbacher Art Award in 1983, and he is a talented speaker and an expert genealogist to boot. Allan’s latest project is helping the Mt. Albert fire department recover and chronicle their history. In 1971 Allan joined the Uxbridge Historical Society, a natural progression given his love of History, later to become the Curator of the Uxbridge Museum. His time as Curator had him actively involved in many major projects, from relocating significant historic buildings to the site, to presenting the street names in Uxbridge’s new residential developments. Many of the street names in Uxbridge have historical significance and were named with Allan’s assistance. Genealogy is also a huge part of Allan’s expertise, and a past time he seems to really enjoy. Genealogy is the study of families and tracing their lineages and history. Allan has spent many years assisting Uxbridge with it’s Geneology Collection which is an excellent resource to assist people in their search for their past. Many of you may not know that Allan is a talented artist, working magic with oil paint, and a talented musician. He shared with me his

musical talent, demonstrating the fiddle, Mandolin and spoons. Music to my ears, and he truly has fun performing. Allan continues with his speaking engagements, genealogy research and historical documentation with his expertise sought from Pickering to Beaverton, and beyond. He is truly a talented speaker and his knowledge of the history of our Community is unparalleled. I thank both Allan and Caroline for their time and warm welcome into their home and for sharing with me Allan’s knowledge and love for the history of this wonderful community.

In 1974 Uxbridge Township amalgamated with the Town of Uxbridge and Scott Township, this created the larger Township of Uxbridge. The water pollution plant was opened in 1978. In 1991 Uxbridge Township had a population of 14,092, according to the 2011 census Uxbridge Township’s population was 20,623.

I decided this month would be a good month to talk about Uxbridge and it’s interesting history. With this month’s Historically Speaking I will share some interesting facts about the town we all call home. The Town of Uxbridge was surveyed in 1804 – 1805 and was originally 9 square miles (23.3 square km). The area grew in 1806 with the arrival of twelve Quaker families. Today Uxbridge is 162.41 square miles. (420.65 square km.) Uxbridge is twinned with Catawissa, Pennsylvania; many of the original settlers were from there. Uxbridge’s oldest building is “Uxbridge Friends Meeting House”, built in 1820.

The York Durham Heritage Railway, opened in 1996, is a tourist train operating between Stouffville and Uxbridge. The train is pulled by first generation diesel locomotives, which directly replaced the steam locomotives.

peacefully productive

| authenticity and completion trump perfection |

One good idea seen through to completion is worth more than one hundred strokes of genius that never see the light of day. -Me Do you have a head full of great ideas? Precious Moleskines of halffinished lyrics? A hard-drive full of potential plot outlines for that novel you’ve never started? Leather-bound sketchbooks filled with interesting, penciled in concepts and plans for ambitious paintings? These are all great things to have, but they don’t mean much if they stay in that embryonic state. Like a closet full of left-foot stilettos, half-baked creative projects take up a lot of space, and aren’t worth much to anyone on their own. And it’s not just physical space they take up. Unfinished projects take up a lot of mental and spiritual space, too. It can be really stifling to your creativity to have loads of incomplete work lying around. Then the old mental tennis match begins, bouncing back and forth between “I really want to start that new abstract acrylic series” and “not until I finished those watercolour daisies for nan that I sketched out last summer.” There are boatloads of reasons why old projects don’t get finished. Let’s look at some of the most prominent ones.

1. New ideas are exciting and shiny, old ideas smell stale like Uncle Artie’s creepy attic. Let’s get real straight off the top here: New ideas are more fun. They seem limitless and unbound. No one’s had the chance to knock the wind out of their sails yet. They’re untested, so they seem invincible and almost guaranteed to be fulfilling. This is the honeymoon phase of a creative endeavor. We’ve all known someone who’s visited an exotic place on vacation for a week or two, and come back determined to move there. Being the good friends that we are, we gently point out that maybe day-to-day life in that spot isn’t quite as desirable as their recent 14 days of spas, bottomless daiquiris and room-serviced beds with daily, organic chocolatetopped pillowcases. Wherever you go, there you are, as they say. Sadly, if you’ve got tons of unfinished projects that started off as great ideas, another new idea isn’t the solution. 2. Old projects need work, new projects just need daydreaming. For a lot of creative people, the early stages are what we like the best. It’s what most creative people are wired for. Many of us like to generate ideas, not necessarily implement them. When something

exists only in our heads, it’s not really limited by boring stuff like budgets, time, endless revisions or (gasp!) our potential lack of skill in a certain area. It doesn’t take any elbow grease to be inspired by a stunning sunset. It does take some to hike back to your car, get out your camera and struggle through the often humbling act of trying to find the right f-stop, angle, shutter speed, white balance, iso setting, etc. But at the end of the day, that little bit of hard work can pay off with an image that you may cherish for a lifetime. The thought you had about running back to the car and grabbing your camera, which you second guessed? Not really so valuable. 3. An unfinished project can’t be judged. I believe this is the fundamental reason why we so often resist finishing our creative projects. If we don’t actually complete a piece of work, it never has to face the judgement of others. And what could be more terrifying than the judgement of others? When a work is still in the ‘revision stage,’ there remains that little flicker of hope that something external will magically come along and make it perfect. We think we can avoid our book being deemed a failure if we just pretend we’re still in the process of editing it. But I would argue that as adults, what we’ve called ‘failure’ is often just a rest-stop on the road to authentic success. The ones who avoid the unmarked territory and keep within their comfort zones will probably end up relatively OK, kind-of happy, in the ‘burbs, with a reasonable mortgage, maybe some kids, a reliable mini-van and some really nice neighbours, if they’re lucky. But are they inspired? Do they wake up with that spark, that fire in the belly? It’s the rare ones who persevere through those rough, uncomfortable parts of the journey that find a special paradise on the other side. The ones who have the insight to know when the work needs to be done, and then the will-power to do it. The ones who have the courage to put a piece out into the world, even if it’s not quite ‘perfect’, knowing that this won’t be their final song, that there will be more paintings to create, and that the experience and feedback they get from THIS finished work will make the NEXT one that much better. Those are the people that make a difference with their art. Let’s be them. So here’s to authenticity and creative completion over perfection. Keep those Tuesday Horn-Toots coming, and have an awesome July. Shoot me a line, and let me know what creative projects you’re going to commit to completing this month. And for all you songwriters, musicians and music lovers out there: I’m hosting an Open Mic at Colonel McGrady’s Pub & Grill every Sunday at 6:30pm, starting July 6th. I hope to see you there!

guest column

| encouraging reading, one book at a time |

“Take a book. Return a book.” It’s an idea that has people reading around the corner, and around the world. What began as a personal remembrance sparked the imagination of a neighbourhood. In five years, a community literacy project has become a global movement. Todd Bol created a memorial to his mother, a school teacher and avid reader. He built a miniature one-room schoolhouse, secured it to a PLANKS LANE LFL post, and filled it with his mother’s favourite books. A sign encouraged passersby to take a book, or leave one for others. The Little Free Library was born - no card required, no due dates, no overdue fines. Bol teamed up with Rick Brooks, a community development educator, and Amish carpenter Henry Miller, who used wood from a 100 year-old barn destroyed by a tornado for building materials. Their dream to make more little libraries than Carnegie Libraries (there are 2,506) came true in just three years! Now there are over 15,000 LFLs in over forty countries, on every continent except Antarctica. The goal of the LFL organization is to spread the love of reading. Little libraries build a sense of community through the shared experience. However, Brooks is quick to point out, “Don’t think of this as a way to get rid of books. Little libraries are not a dustbin for a reader’s discards: they’re a place to share your favourite books.” Uxbridge has three little libraries. Mine is on Planks Lane, just down the street from the high school and Joseph Gould PS. Tom Huehn built my book house. He felt his rural property was too remote and asked if he could install it on my corner lot, where there’s more foot traffic. He also provided several boxes of books: it’s a roaring success. Moms pushing strollers help their children choose from the kids’ shelf. “The books are always changing. We’ve FIRST AVENUE LFL

read a lot more since it’s been here. We just love it,” one commented. It’s also a destination for seniors on an evening stroll, who said, “There was a whole series by my favourite author left here. We grabbed the lot and are returning them one by one, as my wife and I finish them. This is a great addition to the street. Thanks so much.” Another LFL sits on First Avenue, across from Trinity United Church, SECOND AVENUE LFL maintained by Blue Heron Books’ former owner Barb Pratt. The third is on Second Avenue near. A memorial LFL to Christopher Skinner is in Sandford. All are popular destinations and people visit at all hours. Skinner’s sister, Taryn, remarked, “Dad goes to work very early, and in the winter it’s still really dark. He has to be extra careful leaving the driveway because even then someone may be using the library.” LFLs are maintained by their owners, volunteer ‘stewards’ who check the collection regularly to be sure everything’s in order. It’s up to the individual to supply the initial collection. Once the neighbourhood SANDFORD LFL knows it’s there, it looks after itself. More information is available at www.littlefreelibrary.org. There are building plans with assembly and installation tips. You can buy a do-it-yourself kit or a completely finished structure. Photos show many colourful and intriguing examples to spark decorating ideas. There’s a place to register new little libraries to ensure they receive their official designation and get on their worldwide map. A phrase from the movie, ‘Field of Dreams’, is appropriate: “If you build it, they will come”, to which is added, “...to take a book or leave a book.” With Uxbridge Public Library closing for renovations, a little library is the perfect project!

Nancy Melcher became a “real” writer in 2006. She’s become more proficient at separating the nub of her stories from the blather. Creative non-fiction trumps every other genre, but she’s had a poem published, along side her award-winning photographs! Town Talk is the 22nd publication to feature her writing.

What started as a fun idea amongst a group of friends is quickly becoming one of the most exciting and must-see events of the summer. The group of five including, Richard Evans, Leo Gallard, Mark Givelas, Mike Koziuk and Brett Simmonds noticed an abundance of local talent and dreamt of a way to get them to be featured on a larger scale. The dream became a reality last year with the creation of the Uxbridge Music and Arts Festival. The festival is now entering it’s second year in Elgin Park on July 12th from Noon until 10:00 pm. Set in the scenic park the festival is a showcase of local talent and features over 10 local bands

and solo acts. Bands and artists such as Mumbai Standstill, Air Marshall Landing, Juice, 1985, King Tut, Julien Kelland, Matt Gunn and many more will be performing. Throughout the day there will be interactive art shows, games, a delicious BBQ and a thirst quenching beer tent. Artists will be featured throughout the park and will have paintings, photography and sculptures available for purchase. Looking to give back to the community The Uxbridge Music and Arts Festival donates some proceeds to local charities in The Ryan Waters Foundation and Africycle, raising $800 in its inaugural year. Tickets can be bought for $10 in advance, $15 at the door or by bringing an old usable or non-usable bike to donate to Africycle and get in FREE. With such success in its first year the event promises to be even bigger and better than last year and is an exciting addition to the towns other great summer events. Come support your local talent July 12th and enjoy everything this great town has to offer.

Looking for something to do on your Canada Day holiday? Why not spend the day with your family at Elgin Park. Register for the FREE PanAm themed family activities during the day! Limited spots so sign up soon! There will be many activities such as: • Family Archery 9:15am or 10:15am- Elgin Park • Family Canoeing 1:00pm or 2:00pm - Elgin Pond • Family Flag Football 1:00pm or 2:00pm - Elgin Park • Family Dance Lesson & Dance Party 1:00pm or 2:00pm Then the Elgin Park Gates will open again later in the evening at 5p.m. There will be live music with “Whatever Sticks”, Zoo to You,

BY SAHAR YOUNES

Some people come for a session of Reiki, whether it be a free mini

session that I offer from time to time, or for a regular paid session and simply state when they’re done that they really enjoyed it; they knew it would help them, but they simply can’t afford it. While Reiki is covered by some insurance plans, most people do pay out of pocket for this as well as for most Complementary Alternative Medicine treatments (CAM). It’s time to take a look at your health and well being and money. While we do have free healthcare in this country it is one kind of health care and in truth, it is not preventative, but reactionary – sick care really. Please don’t misunderstand me, it is absolutely necessary and a blessing for us and I am truly grateful for it, but it leaves out many of the wonderful therapies that focus on being well, on prevention, and on staying healthy. More and more people are opting for Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM) for both treatment and prevention, yet the vast majority of these services are out of pocket. My goal here is not to argue to have them covered (this is a political debate that I will stay out of), but to help you take a look at the feasibility of using these services for your health and well being. Many of us are good at budgeting for large purchases whether it be a vacation or your new cell phone. The cost is there and you work around what you have to make it happen. We should be looking at our health care in the same way. If you are interested in some form of CAM, whether it be Reiki therapy, Naturopathy, Acupuncture, Chiropractic care or others, make an appointment with a practitioner to discuss treatments and costs. Let’s look at the numbers. Visiting me for 12, monthly Reiki treatments will cost about $800 and a more structured, prescribed

regiment about $900-$1300. A whole year of chiropractic can be about $900 and visiting a Naturopath once a month after an initial visit will cost about the same. (Please keep in mind these figures are very rough for this illustration – actual costs will obviously depend on the plans recommended by the practitioners in each person’s individual case). This seems like a lot, but let’s look at some of our regular purchases that we sometimes also don’t budget for. Buying your lunch at $7.50 a day will cost you $1875 for the year (I accounted here for two weeks vacation too). Your morning latte may cost up to $1,400 a year – do you see where this is going? That Michael Kors bag, you know the one that is not reducing your stress level, not helping you get your hormones in balance and not supporting your posture – that’s about four or five Reiki treatments right there. What about that big screen T.V. or (insert any electronics here)? I am not judging anyone’s choices at all and I hope I have not offended anyone as we all make these types of purchases all the time without really thinking about the choices or alternatives. I’m merely trying and hoping to increase your awareness of what you are spending your money on and what it is doing for you and perhaps taking this moment to reprioritize your health and well being. Move it a few notches up on your list of priorities. Intend it, plan for it and be healthy.

Our volunteer group this month is an amazing group. The volunteer team responsible for the continued success of the Lucy Maud Montgomery Manse. These ladies all belong to a not for profit group “The Lucy Maud Montgomery Society of Ontario”. Their fundraising efforts enabled them to maintain the Manse it has also enabled them to purchase the Historic Leaskdale Church. This is a huge accomplishment. So next time you are all visiting the Manse, or attending one of the famous tea’s, please remember without this incredible group of volunteers the Manse would not be what it is today. We at Uxbridge Town Talk would like to congratulate all volunteers who make the Lucy Maud Montgomery Manse what it is today and also for preserving such an amazing and interesting part of our history. I have shared a photo with you of these incredible volunteers:
