Council approves $675,000 municipal drain expansion By Aryn Strickland MAPLETON - Council approved the repair and expansion of a municipal drain south of Moorefield stretching from Concession Road 6 to 8 along Wellington Road 10 during a council meeting on Aug. 13. The total estimated cost of the project is $675,000. Construction alone is estimated to cost about $400,000. Township engineer Tom Pridham called it “a large project,� and stated that the drain needed some “major
overhauls,� during a previous council meeting on July 9. The project will include the installation of 2,658 metres of closed drain, six road crossings, 21 catchbasins and 376 metres of open drain clean out. Eleven properties will be impacted by the improvement project with a projected total net cost of $230,074.

Perfect day for plowing at county match in Mapleton By Patrick Raftis MAPLETON – Perfect weather, plenty of competition and a great local venue added up to a successful day at the 2019 Wellington County Plowing Match on Aug. 15. “It was a fantastic day. The facilities were tremendous and the crowd was just very nice,� said Wellington County Plowmen’s Association president Ron Faulkner. Faulkner said he was pleased to see four competitors in the horse-drawn plow category. “That’s a very good number. That’s a skill that’s fast disappearing,� he noted. The match featured over 30 competitors in various tractor-drawn categories. There were seven competi-
tors in the celebrity plowing competition and two in a special OPP officers and spouses category. Faulkner said 2018-19 Ontario Queen of the Furrow Derika Nauta was on hand at the event helping Wellington County Queen of the Furrow Heidi Frey with ceremonial duties. Faulkner had high praise for both volunteers and the match venue. “The volunteers were great. I think we were cleaned up in less than an hour after the last competitor finished,� he said, adding that “Peg Scheick and the Drayton United Church ladies just served a super lunch.� The match was held on the Drayton-area farm of Neil Driscoll and family.

Auditor declares town’s books in good financial order MINTO – An annual independent audit has found the Town of Minto’s books to be in good financial order. “It was a clean audit. There’s no issues. You’ve got a good staff and they take care of the books,� Ryan Deyell of Ward and Uptigrove told council on Aug. 7. Deyell said the “key paragraph� in the audit report states, “In our opinion, the consolidated financial state-
ments present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Corporation of the Town of Minto as at December 31, 2018, and its results of its operations, changes in net financial assets, and its cash flows for the year then ended December 31, 2018 in accordance with Canadian Public Sector Accounting Standards.� “The big picture? This is a strong statement,� said Deyell.

He noted the town has over $11.8 million in current financial assets, an increase of about $1.2 million from the previous year. “All the receivables are collectible and you’re doing a good job with that,� he noted. The auditor pointed out the town’s total financial assets increased by about $1.8 million, from $13.1 million in 2017 to $14.9 million in 2018, while current liabilities, including payables, deferred revenues and employee ben-
efits, totaled about $1.97 million. “When you compare that to your current assets, you’re in really good shape there,� he explained. Deyell noted the town recorded a surplus of $3.56 million in 2018, up slightly from the previous year. “Your tangible capital assets have also increased – lots of investment in infrastructure and capital additions,� he stated. “It’s all been done well

and budgeted for and I commend everybody for that.� Treasurer Gordon Duff noted “2018 was a little unique in that one project (downtown road reconstruction in Clifford) pretty much dominated. “That was really a $4.7-million project and for us that’s huge,� said Duff. He pointed out the project would not have been possible without funding from other levels of government, including $1 million in provincial
Connecting Link cash. “A municipality the size of Minto can’t do this size of project without the help of upper levels of government,� stated Duff. Deputy mayor Dave Turton, who chairs the town’s finance committee, concurred with Deyell’s assessment of Minto’s treasury department. “Gord and his staff, they do a great job, and he’s been doing a great job for a long time,� Turton stated.

Student Start Up program launches youth entrepreneurs By Patrick Raftis CLIFFORD - The establishment of 40 new youth-run businesses in the region was celebrated with a barbecue at Rotary Park here on Aug. 14. The support for local youth entrepreneurs came through Saugeen Connects, an economic development partnership that includes Minto, Wellington North, Brockton, Hanover, West Grey and the Saugeen Economic Development Corporation (SEDC). Students from Grades 6 to 12 who successfully pitched their ideas to the Saugeen Connects team under the Saugeen Student Start-up Program (SSUP) received start-up funding and extensive training while operating their own businesses this summer. For the involved, Saugeen SSUP included a meet-and-
greet with sponsors, workshop training, start-up funding and an opportunity to earn bonus cash through active participation in SSUP initiatives. Sponsors contribute In addition to a grant from the Rural Economic Development fund through the provincial Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, the member municipalities acquired private-sector sponsors to contribute to the funding. Businesses launched vary from lawn care and dog walking to balloon art and designing a mental health app. At the celebration, Minto economic development and business manager Belinda Wick-Graham said the SSUP program was based on a national award-winning program originally developed by Norfolk County. “We thought, why not
bring something like this here for our youth in our region?” said Wick Graham. “And we’re really excited to have such a great response from our youth in our community who are running their business, and also from the sponsors that have allowed us to offer this program.” SEDC board chair Lloyd Love said the non-profit corporation aims to promote business and entrepreneurship in the local region. Perfect fit “The Student Start Up Program fits perfectly into our mandate and focuses on promoting entrepreneurship to our communities’ youth,” said Love. “I hope to see the students involved in this program continue to pursue entrepreneurship with a passion and help keep our business community strong and diverse for future generations.”

Wellington historical society makes visit to Harriston The HARRISTON Wellington County Historical Society executive traveled to Harriston for its Aug. 15 meeting. Seven members were hosted by the Harriston Historical Society, which has display rooms on the third floor of the Carnegie library building there. “We’re trying to start a tradition, where we as a board visit other societies to see what they do rather than just hear about it in emails or reports,” said one member of the county group. This is the second time the county board has been hosted by Harriston for a summer meeting. After the meeting, the seven-member team viewed various displays in the Harriston Society’s John Webb Room, and the three-room exhibit, in the art gallery, of artifacts and memorabilia depicting the 160 years of the Harriston Fall Fair. The county group was amazed at the numerous collections accumulated for this two-month display. The Harriston group is very fortunate to have both a permanent display room plus storage area. As one visitor put it, “you have all this, and all we have is a few totes in a corner of a storage room at the museum”. All were particularly impressed with the creativity and layout of the fall fair display, which has little niches mimicking the vari-
ous categories of a real fair. The Harriston Society was presented with a donation from the county group. This represents part of the society’s mandate of fostering public awareness of the history and heritage of Wellington County. “With the hundreds of 8x10 pictures you have on display, and the inordinate amount of printer ink and photo paper you have gone through, this will help defray your stationery expenses,” said Wellington society treasurer Kathy Bouma as she
presented a cheque for $100 to Harriston society co-chair Willa Wick. The gathering concluded with a jaunt around town where the group saw the murals, sidewalk stencils, vintage-themed store window displays, and many of the original buildings as portrayed on the new brochure Downtown Harriston Historical Tour - a self-guided walking tour, and a summer project of the historical society with support from the Town of Minto and the Harriston Rising Committee.

Plowing on As more and more of our entertainment and social activity moves online and indoors, it’s great to see long-time rural traditions such as local fairs and plowing matches remain popular. Such events bring area residents together and provide opportunities for the type of interaction and competition that builds familiarity and community. The recent Drayton Fair drew good crowds and featured an amazing array of events as illustrated in photographs in the Community News both last issue and again this week. On Aug. 15, the Wellington County Plowing Match was held in Mapleton and was, by all accounts a successful day, attracting plenty of competitors and spectators. Wellington County Plowmen’s Association president Ron Faulkner was effusive in his praise for all involved. “A great crowd which attended the plowing match were treated to great weather, amazing facilities courtesy of Neil and Barb Driscol, a delicious lunch served by Peg Schieck and the United Church Ladies, to high level skills in the field by competent plowers,” stated Faulkner in a press release issued following the match. “Many of these plowers have competed at the world class level including Wellington’s own Carmen Weppler. Plowmen from far and wide competed coming from place such as Orillia, Toronto, Cambridge and beyond, showing the skills it takes to be a world class competitor,” he added. Organizers estimated the match drew about 100 people in addition to competitors and volunteers. They were treated to an ever-rarer display of certain skills, such as horse-powered plowing and the fun and camaraderie that flows from participation in such iconic rural traditions.

6 | THE COMMUNITY NEWS | AUGUST 22, 2019
By Rev. Calvin Brown
It’s here now and it promises to be fuller in the future. I’ve just returned from a three-week tenting holiday. I marvel at the beauty that is seen and sensed everywhere in creation and which is found not only on what now is observed but which is in the promise of greater things that will be shown us. Now we see buds that promise blooms and we see blooms that promise fruit that is good for eating. But not only is the fruit beautiful but the luscious greens of the spring leaves, and the blooms are both promise and fulfillment that offer joy. They are enjoyed in the observation but they are also enjoyed in the
memory. Think of all the beauty around us that touch our every sense. The gurgling brook, the splashing water falls, the sweet water, the lapping waves, the gentle rain and the dramatic thunderstorm. Consider the grand height of mountains and the chiseled valleys, the grass sea of the prairies and the chilling glaciers with the refreshing breezes, and the variety of trees in the boreal forest. I have barely begun to describe even a few of the wonders I saw. I have not spoken of the comic chipmunks or the hard working beavers, the graceful deer, or the soaring large raptors. Why was all this made? Creation is meant to remind us of God and His
ways. Each thing reveals something of the glory and beauty of God. St Paul explains to the Romans: “What can be known about God is plain to people, because God has made it plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.” While most people understood this connection there are some who refuse to acknowledge it and pretend that science contradicts this assertion. The truth is that true science doesn’t even address the question. Science is largely limited to dealing with the material aspects of the earth not the supernatu-
ral. Science, as long as it remains authentic will never be able to answer the question of God’s existence (in spite of what they call the newly discovered God particle). It is true creation points to a creator but while it may enable a philosophical or theological argument science is another realm of study altogether. There is more than one kind of knowing and science in creation may point to a source but it can never prove it one way or another. I recognize the limitations of every kind of knowing but I also embrace knowing the moves on a different plane than science. This is the knowing that I experienced this summer when I observed the heavens, and the wonder of nature and believed there was a maker behind
it. The knowledge that says there has got to be more that brought all this into being than mere chance scientific mechanics and it must have more meaning to human life and creation than soulless organism and energies. I’m not the only one to reach this conclusion. Many people over the centuries have looked to the skies and creation and concluded the same. Even hundreds of years before Jesus walked on the earth the Psalmist said: Psalm 8:3-6 New International Version (NIV) 3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, 4 what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for
them? 5 You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honour. 6 You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet. Not only are we part of something bigger and more important than some science suggests but we have responsibility to be good stewards of the creation. We need to admit we have not been doing a great job (global warming, decimation of species, pollution of air and water). But the creation is still there (even if in tatters) to remind us that the “Earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof and those who dwell in it.” If we turn to the creator there is still time to be saved.

up their 2018 Jeep Wrangler American Fastback Badlands vehicle complete with a ladder to reach the living quarters on the roof. Only three were built in Canada for the show circuit and Marvin and his son own two. By 8:30pm, Lexie Wormington was finished singing and playing her guitar, DJ Devine Chelsea Zurbrigg was finished spinning the oldies, and it was time for speeches and draws. Emcee Dan Bieman welcomed all and shared his appreciation for the overwhelming number of vehicles and spectators who arrived for this tenth anniversary celebration. Howick Reeve Doug Harding is proud of the show and the many people who organize the cruise nights. Huron-Bruce MPP Lisa Thompson couldn’t believe
the variety of vehicles noting enthusiasm for classics is growing. Draws were made for the 50/50 draw in support of the Legion, for cases of oil, hats and water bottles, and a custom car cleaning won by Phyllis Ireland. Throughout the evening, hundreds of hamburgers, sausage on a bun, and hotdogs were barbecued by Nana Helen Park, Ron Harkness, and Werner Frey. Alyssa Bonneville, Dayden Frey, and Coulton Frey helped Lisa Frey sell cold beverages, and Adrianna Frey sold all the Rheo Thompson mint smoothies in her basket. All of the food proceeds will support Camp Maple Leaf. Everyone is welcomed back for the season’s end Cruise Night to be held Sept. 13.

North Wellington Youth Spotlight focuses on positive stories about young people in local communities. The features are provided by Erin Raftis, municipal youth intern for Minto, Mapleton, and Wellington North – #positivityFromYouthForYouth. MINTO Garrett Schouten, a 10-year-old youth from Clifford, is among 40 youths in the Saugeen Student Start-Up Program (SSUP), which provides funding to young entrepreneurs to help them start their own businesses this summer. This budding businessman is a balloon twister “not a clown” for his startup “Chuckles’ Balloons.” Schouten explains that he “can be hired for events and people can buy [his] balloon creations through [his] Facebook page.” His mother helps him run the page and she was also the inspiration for the youth to start selling his balloon creations because she said “they were awesome and [he] needed an audience.” This job opportunity has provided the entrepreneur with new connections in his community, as he attends local events, and has been hired by local businesses, as well as the Town of Minto. He has also spent his time and balloons volunteering at
GARRETT SCHOUTEN nursing homes and kids day camps. He states that “it’s important to give back to my community. “Recently I have donated 20 new stuffed animals to two local hospital ER’s for patients who need a cuddly buddy.” Not only has his business provided him a network, he is also learning a lot about how to run a business, which

includes both the technological side, such as upkeep of his Facebook and Instagram pages, as well as learning about customer services and finances. In the future, Garrett intends to “continue to do [his] best at school” because he loves school, as well as continuing to run Chuckles’ Balloons by attending more events. He would like to start a merchandise line to sell items with his “slogan and punny phrases” including reusable book bags, T-shirts, and more. He aspires to “learn to entertain with a half-hour show” which would include “music, magic, riddles, and jokes, and of course balloons!” Schouten is “excited that [his] Facebook page is growing.” He has recently included a new item called “Balloon Candy Cups” for five dollars each. He urges everyone to check out his page because he is practicing “balloon art every day and [is] always learning new twists.” Contact Garrett through his Facebook page @chucklesballoonart, or on instagram @chucklesballoons_. You can message him about an event or to place an order. Balloon pickups are available in Clifford or through local delivery for a small fee.
