Trenton – It may have felt more like a summer afternoon instead of a crisp fall morning but fall was in the air nonetheless during the first ever downtown Trenton Fall Marketfest. An apple pie baking contest, scarecrow making, scavenger hunt, antique tractors, fall produce and pancake breakfast drew in large crowds to enjoy the fall event. Market vendor Donna Brickman said the event was a great idea. “I think it’s awesome, it helps everybody to get down here, to get people out to see what we do sell down here from May to the end of October,” she said. “We need more vendors and we would like to see more people down here to our market.” Derek Cox attended the event with his family and also family friends. The large group were completing the scavenger hunt which was based around the local vendors. “I wanted to come out today because it’s like summer weather again, it’s nice to be outside when it’s sunny and nice and we go to the Belleville Farmers’ Market all the time but our friends live in Trenton so we are checking it out today,” said Cox. He said the kids were having a lot of fun completing the scavenger hunt, which got them thinking about where the fruits and vegetables come from. “There’s lot of bee questions which the kids love, lots of bee questions and honey,” he said, and added that it’s im-

portant his children learn about where their produce comes from. “We grow a little bit of vegetables at home but it’s nice to come and see where everything comes from and the kids can pick and choose and talk to farmers, I really like that.” Councillor Sally Freeman, along with Councillor Fred Kuipers and MPP Northumberland-Quinte West Lou Rinaldi, had the tough job of
judging the apple pie contest and choosing a winner. “It’s a great event, a great idea,” she said. “There’s some really cool things down here, I think it’s wonderful, the whole market is really busy and it looks wonderful and full, I love a fall market.” Angeline Rae took home first place in the apple pie baking contest, which she said her daughter entered her into.
“It feels very good, I didn’t think I’d win, I’ve never done it before,” she said. “I’ve been baking since I was 12 and I’m 82,” Rae laughed, and said she didn’t know what was the secret that made her pies so good. “I just make them, I’ve been doing that all my life with the same pie, the same crust and everything, they seem to like it.”

Trenton Health Hub awaits Ministry of Health approval BY ERIN STEWART
Trenton – The fate of a Trenton Health Hub is in the hands of the Ministry of Health and LongTerm Care. Currently, multiple proposals for the hub are before the ministry. Sheila Braidek, executive director of the Belleville and Quinte West Community Health Centre (CHC), said CHC is planning to build its new building in Trenton as the first phase of construction of the hub. Moving the Quinte West location of the CHC, currently located on Murphy Street in Trenton, is long overdue, she said. “We need a permanent space, the facility that we have on Murphy Street is actually a series of temporary buildings, trailers, that are put together, so it was originally intended as a short-term, twoyear solution and it’s been close to seven years now,” she said. Building a new facility would allow CHC to proceed with its already approved building project and be the anchor for the Trenton Health Hub. Following that, other health and community services could be brought into the hub as part of Phase 2, said Braidek. A proposal has been submitted to the ministry for a decision on whether land owned by Quinte Health Care (QHC) on Catherine Street, next to Trenton Memorial
Hospital (TMH), is the appropriate site for the hub. “Part of the consideration of that is wanting to ensure that, if the hub goes there, that there’s still space for a future hospital development, if that comes to pass sometime in the next 20 years or so,” said Braidek. The QHC board has approved the donation of the land on Catherine Street in principle, providing certain conditions are met and the site is the confirmed location of the future Trenton Health Hub. An application for capital funding has also been submitted to the ministry, for the development of housing agencies not part of the CHC portion of the hub. Agencies currently planning to locate programs alongside CHC in the hub include: South East Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) Home and Community Care, Victorian Order of Nurses, Addictions and Mental Health Services – Hastings Prince Edward and the Brighton and Quinte West Family Health Team. If the proposals become approved, the next step in the process would be to create a detailed business plan, said Braidek. Locating primary health-care services and community care services under one roof is a step in the right direction to improve health care in the community, said Braidek.
“I think that’s the most exciting part of this whole hub initiative,” she said. “I think that there are some things we could do differently and together that would increase the volume of services that are offered in the community and just the ease of the experience, improve the individual client experience.” Having co-ordinated services would help people navigate the health system easier, said Braidek. “It’s one more step in an overall effort to better integrate and collaborate so that there is a more coherent systems approach to providing health care services in our communities,” she said. “It’s an exciting project, it’s slower going than I think everybody would like but everybody that’s involved is working very hard on it and I think it’s going to be a great outcome for the community.” The CHC has been designated STORE HOURS: as the lead agen-
cy for the Trenton Health Hub. The planning of the Trenton Health hub is based on a report from the Trenton Memorial Hospital Implementation Task Force. The task force, created by the South East LHIN, held its first meeting in January 2016 to address recommendations made in a report by the Brighton-Quinte West Health Services Advisory Committee, chaired by Glen Rainbird, also known as the Rainbird report. The Rainbird report had several
recommendations, including a recommendation to significantly enhance the degree of collaboration between local care providers and to co-locate local-health care services at TMH. Partners in the hub planning process have included: The South East LHIN, the Victorian Order of Nurses, Addictions and Mental Health Services‐Hastings Prince Edward, the Brighton Quinte West Family Health Team, Our TMH and the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation.

Trenton — Roundel Glen Golf Course assistant superintendent Wyatt Dever is one of 25 people chosen for the trip of a lifetime to work at the PGA Tour Championship in Atlanta, Georgia. The 24-year-old said it’s an opportunity he never thought he would have. “I’m pretty excited, obviously it’s an honour, I didn’t think it would ever happen. They only pick 25 of us, and I’ve only been in the business five years,” said Dever. “It’s the top 30 golfers in the world competing to see who’s the

Sizer said the opportunity is amazing for Dever. “I’m very excited for him to get an opportunity to see how it really works when you put an extreme amount of dedication into the turf, there won’t be anything missed, it’ll look vacuumed, it’ll just look incredible,” he said. “I think it’s something that could advance his career and represents almost Canada, there’s five guys going so I think it’s totally cool and a neat experience.” It is also very likely Dever will be able to meet the winner of the tournament, said Sizer. “Typically, they come down and hang out with the turf crew for about an hour after they win, so he will get his picture taken and all of that stuff,” he said.

Care and Share Food Bank annual food drive Sept. 30 Trenton – The Trenton Care and Share Food Bank is gearing up for its annual fall food drive and looking for the community’s support. The fall food drive will take place Saturday, Sept. 30 from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. To support the food drive, the Care and share Food Bank asks that a bag of non-perishable items be set on doorsteps by 8 a.m. A team of volunteers will come by and pick up the donated items. Some of the most needed non-perishable food items are: dry pasta and hamburger helper, canned pasta and tomato sauce, soups, juice packs, tea, coffee, canned fruits and vegetables, canned meats and fish, granola bars and cereal bars, baking sup-
plies, canned beans, dry cereal and oatmeal, peanut butter and cheese spread, crackers and cookies. Sarah Richardson, secretary of the Trenton Care and Share Food Bank board, said the annual event has been an important part of the food bank’s sustainability and success. “It’s rewarding to see our community join together and give back to others,” she said. “We are ever grateful for the support this community has shown the Care and Share Food bank over the years. With your continued help, we look forward to another successful drive on September 30.” To volunteer for the food drive, visit trentonfoodbank.ca for more information on how to get involved.
‘Pepper-spray’ incident prompts early closure of Quinte Mall
Sunday, September 24 | 1pm - 4pm Join us in our celebration of fall and experience our fine foods and entertainment!
Belleville – A six-week-old infant was among those treated by paramedics after police were called to the Quinte Mall Monday night, as a result of a “pepper spraying incident” that took place inside the Winners entrance. The incident prompted an early closure of the mall at 7:30 p.m., but no one was seriously injured, Belleville Police said in a statement Tuesday morning. Police and paramedics were called after a male was pepper sprayed by another male. The suspect then fled from the mall through
the Winners entrance. Paramedics treated mall visitors on scene, including the baby, who were cross contaminated by the spray. Two other visitors were transported to Belleville General Hospital where they were treated and released. Police are looking to identify the assailant who is described as a white male, 25-to 35 years of age. He was wearing a ball cap, a white sleeveless shirt, shorts, and flip flops. Anyone with information on the suspect is encouraged to call The Belleville Police Service at 613-966-0882.

OPINION
The Car Revolution France and the United Kingdom recently announced that they will ban the sales of gasoline and diesel-engined cars from 2040. The lower house of the Dutch parliament has passed a law banning such sales 2025. India says it Gwynne Dyer from will institute a similar ban by 2030. China, the world’s largest producer of cars – 28 million vehicles last year, more than the United States, Japan and Germany combined – is also planning to declare a ban soon, but is still working on the cut-off date. And in November the European Commission is going to debate a minimum annual quota of electric vehicles (EVs) for all European car producers. So if you were looking for a safe place for a long-term investment, would you choose the oil industry? Just over half of the 98 million barrels of oil produced in the world each day goes directly to making gasoline, used almost exclusively in motor vehicles. Another 15 percent goes to make “distillate fuel oil”, of which at least half is diesel fuel. So around 58 percent of total world oil production is being used in vehicles now. There may be almost none in 35 years’ time. That is certainly the intention of many governments. Britain, for example, is planning to allow only zero-emission vehicles on the road (apart form a few specially-licensed vintage cars) by 2050, only ten years after the ban on selling new cars with internal combustion engines comes into affect. So the production of gasoline- or dieselengined cars will already have collapsed by the late 2030s. In practice, if these deadlines are observed, the cars on sale will be almost entirely EVs by the mid-2030s. And what’s left of the oil industry will have a different shape. Countries that export most of their oil, like Russia and Saudi Arabia, will find their incomes crashing for two reasons: sheer lack of demand, and very low prices ($40 per barrel or less) due to the huge glut of productive capacity. There may also be follow-on political consequences. Countries with some oil production of their own, like the United States and China, may simply stop importing oil entirely. (The United States will remain in the last ditch federally so long as Donald Trump is president – he’s even trying to revive the coal industry – but eight states have already signed an agreement

Council approves Trent Port Marina price incentive at 2017 rates BY ERIN STEWART
Trenton — The price of slips at the Trent Port Marina will increase in 2018, but seasonal boaters who decide to buy early can get the 2017 rates. Quinte West city council approved the incentive on Monday, Sept. 11. “If you are a seasonal boater with us and want to stay for 2018, as long as you pay your $400 deposit by Oct. 31 and the balance of the fees by March 31 of next year, then you can stay with the 2017 rates,”
said David Clazie, director of corporate and financial services. Slips will go up in price in 2018. In 2017, the rates were $47.80 per foot for a 30-amp service and $49.40 per foot for a 50-amp service. In 2018, the rates will go up to $50.20 per foot for a 30-amp service and $51.90 per foot for a 50-amp service. Clazie said this is an incentive for boaters to stay at the marina and get a discount. “It also holds their slip for next year,” said Clazie. “They’ve been
here so they get a little break.” Coun. Karen Sharpe, member of the corporate and finance committee, said the recommendation for an incentive by Bob Forder, manager of building and facilities, is also a good way to bring in new boaters. “It’s to really support our existing seasonal boaters and to encourage new boaters that may want to get a slip prior to next year,” said Sharpe. “It’s a good idea because it recognizes our existing boaters in terms of their support for the marina and they’re able to plan ahead, as well it gives the operations an idea of the budget in terms of who we can expect the following year.” Sharpe said the excellent staff at the marina provide great

customer service and the facilities are state of the art. “We have great dock service, we have a beautiful club house that also supports Wi-Fi, excellent wash-
rooms and opportunities to access downtown services,” she said. “We provide, what I want to say, the best facility in the area for our boaters.”
Culture Day coming to Quinte West library BY ERIN STEWART
ADS HAVE CHANGED A LOT OVER THE YEARS, but one thing remains the same: truth in advertising matters. adstandards.ca
Truthful, Fair, and Accurate.
Trenton — The Quinte West Public Library invites community members to partake in Culture Day at the library on Saturday, Sept. 30 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The library will host about nine different activities, offering art, poetry, and music projects for community members to engage in. Activities include creating a graffiti mural, window poetry, art mashup posters, buttonmaking, origami, a singalong campfire, cardboard castle challenge, fairyland in a teacup, and papermaking. Krista Richardson, library information services assistant, said Ontario Culture Days is a perfect opportunity to bring people into the library. “The library is a great place to offer these sorts of events,” she said. “We have so many things to do with culture here; a part of our library mission is to provide an opportunity to provide lifelong learning, and events like Culture Days offer
these opportunities for the community.” Richardson said there will be something for everyone at the free event and the vast majority of the activities will be set up as stations so people can come in and out throughout the day based on their own schedule. “We’re really hoping with Culture Days that we get people interacting, meeting new people, moving around, and engaging with their neighbour,” she said. “You can engage with the community and with others; we’re trying to get the word out that we’re not just books at the library and we have a lot of interesting things going on.” According to culturedays.ca, Ontario Culture Days is an annual event, engaging community arts activities. It fosters engagement and support of a diverse arts and cultural community. The event is taking place in about 900 communities across Ontario to celebrate the eighth annual Culture Days.

QWFD’s Greg King takes earns medals, award at FireFit BY ERIN STEWART
Ottawa — It was a weekend full of accomplishments for Quinte West fire prevention officer Greg King at the FireFit Canadian National Finals in Ottawa on Sept. 9-10. King earned a gold medal in the Chief category, a bronze medal in the over-45 category and he was also awarded the Randy Kalan Camaraderie Award at the national event. “It feels great to put in all that hard work and training and have it pay off at the end of the year,” said King. “Thanks to my teammates who train hard with me and help push me to a better time.” Team captain of the Quinte West FireFit team, King said winning the Randy Kalan Camaraderie Award is special. “Randy is a longtime competitor; he shows a lot of enthusiasm and passion and tries to encourage other competitors. It’s an honour to get the award from a guy that I really look up to,” said King. “It’s hard to put into words, I have a lot of passion for the competition, I’ve made a lot of friends over the years and it just reaffirms that I’m in the right Quinte West senior fire prevention officer Greg King, 49, drags a 175 sport.”

Trenton — The 2017 Eastern Canada Cup All-Star Challenge will be held at the Duncan McDonald Memorial Gardens, home of the Trenton Golden Hawks. The Ontario Junior Hockey League, Trenton Golden Hawks and City of Quinte West announced their partnership for the event, taking place Nov. 13-15. Five Jr. A leagues will participate in the all-star tournament including: The Ontario Junior Hockey League (OJHL), Central Canada Junior Hockey League (CCHL), Northern Ontario Junior Hockey League (NOJHL), Quebec Junior Hockey League (QJHL) and Maritime Junior Hockey League (MHL). The event provides exposure for players in the five leagues, allowing them to play in front of scouts from all over the hockey world, said John McDonald, director of hockey operations.
“It keeps Trenton on the forefront of the hockey world,” said McDonald. “I think it keeps us in the forefront with Hockey Canada. We can host these events, we can do these things, and then when big international things come up and we go after it, then maybe Hockey Canada will say ‘Hey, Quinte West has got a real great success rate,” he said. It also serves as a player identification event for the coaching staff of Team Canada East in player selection for the yearly training camp and entry into the World Jr. A Challenge. “It’s bringing the calibre of hockey, you’re going to have 10 all-star teams so that means on those teams every player on that team is a standout, so people are going to see some outstanding hockey,” he said.

“I’m inspired by my teammates, especially Dave McCue, who is 68 years old and still gets out on the course and contributes to our relay team.” McCue said King got him involved in FireFit 15 years go. “He’s been one the Quinte West FireFit team since day one,” said McCue. “He encourages people to join, he knows everybody at all the events and everybody knows him, and he’s always in the top of whatever category he’s running in. He’s a good athlete and a good guy.” King is instrumental in the Quinte West FireFit team and a great recipient for the Randy Kalan Camaraderie Award, said McCue. “It’s amazing some of the runs that he does do,” he said. “I just have to show up and perform, which is hard to do. He’s right on top of us for training and everything else, he’s a great guy, great motivator.” Turning 50 in January, King said he will be in the over-50 category next year and he has no plans of slowing down. Known as the toughest two minutes in sports, the Scott FireFit competition is based on tasks commonly performed by firefighters in emergency situations.

The 49-yeard-old said he has done about 120 competitions over the last 16 years. “I still get nervous for every one of them, when you’re putting on the pack and the mask and you realize you’re going to be running as hard as you can,” he said. “It’s very demanding competition, but an hour later, you feel like a million dollars.” Having a team is the key to success in the sport, said King. The Quinte West FireFit national team consisted of Ryan McNaught, Taylor Wardhaugh, Keith Locklin, Coun. David McCue, Aaron Wade and team captain Greg King. The team competed in five regional events throughout the year and brought home eight gold medals, two silver and two bronze medals at regional events. King noted that Wardhaugh managed to knock 30 seconds off of her individual race time in an Oshawa regional event, running a personal best time of 2:44. “Teammates really are the key because you push each other to go train that little bit harder and get out on the days when you don’t feel like working out,” said King.
Future military leaders of the world visit CFB Trenton BY MAKALA CHAPMAN
CFB Trenton – Several of Canada’s future military leaders are getting a firsthand look at what goes on behind the scenes at Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Trenton. More than 140 students from the Canadian Forces College’s Joint Command and Staff Programme (JCSP) got the chance to take a tour of several of the Base’s different aircrafts, use desktop flight simulators and more when they visited 8 Wing Trenton on Sept. 18. The purpose of the tour was to highlight the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) and its capabilities, while giving the students the chance to learn through hands-on experiences. But those who are a part of JCSP aren’t just regular students, said the program’s curriculum development officer, Lieutenant-Commander (LCdr.) Joseph Kish. He explained that all 145 students who
were on the tour were all high-ranking military personnel who the military felt demonstrated potential to serve at a higher level. While most of the course is in-class learning, LCdr. Kish noted that a big component of the program was the Experiential Learning Visit (ELV) to places like CFB Trenton. “We show them the rest of the military,” he said, “not only the army, navy and air force, but also higher level thinking.” He added that the end goal of the 10-month program was to produce leaders who would be able to take on the tasks and responsibilities expected of them by Canada. “They’re the top of what they do but they only know more or less their trade or their environment,” he said, “but now we don’t want them to only do that, we want them to be able to command a squadron, a ship or a unit.”
Kish noted members of the navy and army don’t often get the chance to see the tools used by the RCAF up close, so the opportunity to do so was essential for the student’s overall learning experience. “It gives them an idea of the amount of time and effort it takes to keep one of those (aircrafts) in the air,” he said. “This is a good opportunity for everybody to get that appreciation.” While the college focuses its efforts on training Canadian military personnel, Canadian Forces College also has a handful of international students take part in the leadership program. Taking the chance to check out a CH146 Griffon helicopter and other static displays at Hangar 1 on the north side of the base was international student Major (Maj.) Elijah Mbithi with the Kenyan Army. He noted he had been enjoying learning about all the different components of the Canadian Armed Forces during his time in the program. “It’s good to see the kinds of security challenges Canada faces and how they handle them, as well as the air force capa-

bilities,” he said. “It’s a vast country but they are clearly very ready to face those challenges.” But Mbithi jokingly added that since he is from a country with a warmer climate, he wasn’t sure if he was going to enjoy when his class visits Yellowknife for more training in November. “I’m scared of winter,” he chuckled, adding that the last time he had seen snow was almost a decade ago when he visited

Veterans, community celebrated BY MAKALA CHAPMAN
Trenton – The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 110 in Quinte West once again celebrated local veterans with the annual Legion Week events. Longtime member and president of the local Legion, Douglas Duff, said last week he was excited for the festivities. “Legion Week is a fun and relaxed time,” he said, adding that it was the perfect opportunity to showcase some of the services and programs the organization offers. The non-profit group provides aid and assistance to veterans, to those currently serving, their families, and the community as a whole. “Medical appointments, clothing, housing, whatever they need,” said Duff, adding that they also host a bi-monthly breakfast for the less fortunate. “The money that this branch collects stays in the local area.” With approximately 1,100 active members, the Legion is also a big supporter of youth initiatives like the Scouts of Canada, Girl Guides of Canada, and more. “We help out the community as best as we can, as much as we can and as often as we can,” he said. “We’re a stepping stone for the young, but we’re also an easy chair for the old.” But Duff noted that everything from the programs offered to the planning of Legion Week itself would not have been possible without the countless volunteers who offer their time and services.

“The volunteers are paramount and are the backbone (of the Legion),” he said. “If we didn’t have volunteers, there are a lot of things we couldn’t do.” Legion Week kicked off Saturday at noon with a ribbon cutting and opening ceremony at the 19 Quinte St. branch in Trenton. A wine and cheese mingle with live entertainment was held on Sept. 17 and a special dinner was hosted for the veterans on Sept. 19. To thank the community’s

retired veterans, a special dinner will also be held for them on Sept. 19 at 5 p.m. Other events include talent night on Sept. 21. To wrap up the week, a luncheon to thank the currently serving members of the military will get underway at noon on Sept. 22 at the Legion. For those looking to become a member of the Legion, Duff said applications could be filled out and submitted for review at the Quinte West branch.
Belleville – It was news that could make anyone feel warm. Adopt A Child was announced as the next beneficiary of the 100+ Women Who Care Quinte group, at the end of its quarterly meeting, Wednesday, Sept. 6 at the Greek Hall. The program, run by regional police forces, helps provide winter clothing for kids in need. It’s preparing for a new year, with registration for families starting Wednesday, Sept. 13 at the Belleville Police, Madoc OPP and Stirling-Rawdon Police stations. Wednesday’s announcement means Adopt A Child will likely soon see a cheque for $10,000 or more from the 100+ Women group. Well over 100 women attended the meeting. Each member of the group is encouraged to donate $100 to the selected cause at the end of each meeting (and in some cases teams of four women pledge $25 each to collectively donate $100). At each meeting, representatives from three different non-profit organizations are invited to deliver a speech and plea for support. Attendees then vote on which of the three groups to support. The two other organizations at Wednesday’s meeting were Fixed Fur Life and the Belleville Pregnancy and Family Care Cen-
tre. The crowd was clearly wooed by a speech by Belleville Police officer Ann Earle-Dempsey who co-ordinates the Adopt A Child program. She said last year the program helped 1,250 children. In some years, it’s helped up to 1,500 kids. The program has come along way since it launched in 1987 and helped 113 kids. It now aims to get the winter coats out well ahead of the Christmas season, as by then it’s already cold. And to register, no one has to reveal what their income is. The programs requires a lot of work and Earle-Dempsey said she sometimes gets stressed and says “why am I doing it?” But, ultimately, the reward that comes from meeting kids and providing them a coat in person and seeing the smiles on their faces keep her going. “That is why I’m doing it,” she said. “We need to keep kids warm.” Adopt-A-Child will be the ninth organization to benefit from the 100+Women Who Care Quinte group. Last night’s meeting was a celebration of the group’s second anniversary. The eight previous meetings have collectively raised $120,310 for worthwhile causes. Tawnya Smith, who co-ordinates the group, said she continues to be amazed at the turnouts. “This is awesome,” she said. “We’re so happy.”

Invictus Games flag makes stop in Quinte West Taking his turn to hold the flag high into the air was Paul Trapper Cane, the national ambassador of the Canadian Army Veterans Motorcycle Organization (CAV). Having travelled all the way from New Brunswick by bike to be a part of the flag’s tour, Cane said he was honoured to have been part of the whole experience. Although a work-related injury ended his career as an infantry soldier back in the 1990s, the veteran said he was proud to honour his fellow veterans and Canada’s servicemen and women. “We’re here to support them and cheer them on every foot of the way,” he said. “The Invictus Games are going to bring all the nation’s warriors together, no matter how they were injured, to see them compete. That’s the most beautiful thing in the world.” As for his advice to the athletes competing, he said that perseverance would be key. “They know how to fight through the pain and the wall,” he said, “but when they’re at that wall and they feel
BY MAKALA CHAPMAN
Trenton – The Invictus Games National Flag Tour has almost finished it’s Canada-wide tour – but not before making a stop in Quinte West. A large crowd gathered at the Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial in Bain Park to welcome the flag and to rally support for the local athletes participating in next week’s competition. The Invictus Games, now in its third year, is an international sporting event for ill or injured servicemen, women and veterans. More than 550 competitors from 17 nations will compete in 12 adaptive sports such as archery, sitting volleyball, wheelchair basketball and more. To help celebrate the launch of this year’s Invictus Games, the ceremonial flag has been making its way across Canada over the course of the last 33 days with less than four days left in its national tour. Proudly waving the flag in Monday’s ceremony was local resident and veteran Lisa-Marie Garneau, as well as a small group of other designated flag bearers.
they haven’t got much left, all they have to do is open their ears and listen to the tens of thousands of people (cheering) for them.” CAV is a 4,000-member strong organization that raises funds for Canada’s first responders and military community. Also at Monday’s festivities was a strong presence from members of CFB Trenton. Taking to the podium to speak about the importance of the games was 8 Wing Commander Col. Mark Goulden. He jokingly noted that while the athletes might have hoped it was founder of the Invictus Games’ Prince Harry addressing them, he was proud to offer his support. “The Invictus Games serves a powerful reminder of the extraordinary courage and determination of those who have acquired physical or mental health injuries while serving our country,” he said. “We stand together to raise the awareness of the rehabilitative power of sports.” As for his words of encouragement

to the local athletes, he said he hoped that they would move forward in next week’s games knowing that their hometown would be rooting for them. “8 Wing is behind you,” he said.
“You continue to serve as an inspiration to all of us. Go Team Canada!” The Invictus Games will run from Sept. 23 – 30 and will be held in Toronto.

For the last three years, Quinte Access received $25,000 per year to cover 50 per cent of the cost for new access vans. “It’s been tremendous, because buses are quite expensive so we can put a lot of our capital into that to keep those on the road and up to date, it really helps with the vans which are greatly needed in the community,” she said. Wendy Warner, executive director of the TMH Foundation, and Phil Panelas, honorary lifetime director of the foundation, said the Kay Stafford fund has had a tremendous impact in the community.
Quinte Access unveiled two new accessible vans on Wednesday Sept. 6. Erin Stewart/Metroland
When Kay Stafford died in 1996 she left the TMH Foundation with a legacy gift of $1,129,733 in 1997. Since 2005, the TMH Foundation has awarded $1.2 million of the investment income from Stafford’s gift through the Kay Stafford Memorial Fund, with 75 per cent of the grants awarded to the community
and 25 per cent to staff at TMH. Over the years, Warner said the Kay Stafford fund has been able to help fund three access vans as well as a few access buses. “We’ve been able to enable numerous people, probably thousands of people, to be able to get to their medical appointments when needed,” she said. “For people that are in wheelchairs and have disabilities that need to get back and forth, we’ve been able to help Quinte Access help our entire community receive health care.” Panelas, who was a close friend of Kay Stafford’s, said Stafford wanted the foundation to use the interest from her gift of about $1 million to go toward health care for the hospital and community. “I think Kay Stafford would be very overwhelmed to think that her gift, which was substantial to begin with, has more than doubled and been able to assist the community in many, many ways,” said Warner. “Through defibrillators, stretchers, first aid kits, access vehicles, you name it.”
G-Hawks super fans excited for new season BY ERIN STEWART
Trenton — A three-month break from the Trenton Golden Hawks was too long for some fans that said they are excited for another season and possibly a “three-peat.” The Trenton Golden Hawks have exceptionally good attendance numbers in the Ontario Junior Hockey League and that’s because of devoted fans like Dan Everett, one of the people behind The Hanger, a page on Facebook devoted
to Hawks information and to facilitate hockey discussions. “I’ve been waiting. It’s hockey all the time for me; it’s like my second home here,” said Everett, who said he’s often at the Duncan McDonald Memorial Community Gardens to watch the minor hockey teams play as well. When asked what makes the GHawks special to him, Everett said the team is always supportive of the fans. “The players are always so nice, they
are always willing to stop and chat with the fans so we’re all looking forward to meeting this year’s new players,” he said. Everett made it to Cobourg last May to watch the G-Hawks compete for the RBC Cup and said he hopes this year’s team can go for a “three-peat” and win the Dudley-Hewitt Cup for the third year in a row. “Nobody has ever done a three-peat before, I think we all want that,” he said. Everett sits in section seven with a large group of devoted fans, some of whom made the long bus journey up to Kirkland Lake and back two seasons ago to watch the team win the DudleyHewitt Cup. John McDonald, director of hockey operations, did something special for the section this year and created a sign to recognize their contribution as super fans. “It says ‘section seven super fans’ and it’s got a picture of the Looney Tunes on it,” said Everett. “That was really nice of them, it’s nice to see teams care

Golden Hawks take home first win BY ERIN STEWART
Trenton — The Trenton Golden Hawks won their first game of the season in game three, beating the Whitby Fury 6-4 at home on Friday Sept. 15. The Jr. A team impressed the home crowd with a stellar first period, scoring three goals. Although the shots were even 9-9 in the first, the Hawks came out ahead as captain Mac Lewis put the first goal on the board four minutes in with a short-handed goal, assisted by Cal Walker and assistant captain Michael Silveri. Silveri scored the next goal seven minutes later, assisted by Lewis and Gage Stephney. Lewis scored his second goal of the period on the power play with 46 seconds remaining, assisted again by Silvery and assistant captain
Brandon Marinelli. Trenton kept it rolling in the second period and scored two quick goals. Caleb Boman scored the first on a power play just one minute into the period, assisted by Maz Ewart and Marinelli. Rex Moe scored his first of the game on the power play five minutes later, assisted by Ewart and Jake Behse. With Trenton up 5-0, Brock Welsh put the fury on the board almost nine minutes into the second, assisted by Austin Ramirez. Whitby finished the period on a high note with the team’s second goal, scored by Patrick Demaio and assisted by Ramirez and Noah Bull. Whitby’s Shane Bull kicked off the third period with a quick goal, assisted by Jeffrey Guald, bringing the score to 5-3 for the Hawks.
Moe scored Trenton’s sixth goal assisted by Zach Senecal halfway through the period and Whitby’s Riley McCutcheon scored the final goal of the game with 10 seconds remaining, bringing the final to 6-4 for the Hawks.

Food Trucks unite for the United Way Event helps towards $1.97M goal BY ERIN STEWART
Trenton – Food Trucks united people in support of the United Way Hastings and Prince Edward during the third annual event on Saturday Sept. 16. Presented by Hanon Systems, the annual event drew thousands of people out to enjoy some good food on a sunny afternoon in Centennial Park in Trenton. Jodi Cooper, director of marketing and digital communications for the United Way, said the event was bigger and better this year. “We’ve got more food trucks than ever, more vendors than ever, the local craft breweries, wine, cider, our kids zone is bigger and better than ever so we’re really excited about that, it really is a fantastic event and a great opportunity for us to get out into the community and showcase what we do,” she said. With a $2 admission fee, Food Trucks United is an event to help the United Way meet its recently announced 2017 campaign goal, set at $1,970,000. The United Way will financially assist about 37 community agencies,

which will help support about 40,000 individuals through 75 programs locally, said Cooper. “I think this event has a huge impact because it really is community focused, it’s open to everyone, family friendly, pet friendly, so everyone is out here and that has a huge impact on our whole fundraising campaign,” she said. The United Way fundraising campaign will run until the end of December. Boaters Maren and Christopher Boothby from New Hampshire were out to grab some food at the event after staying at the Trent Port Marina before making their way up the TrentSevern. “We thought we would stay here for an extra day and it worked out great, the food is wonderful, the weather is great,” said Christopher Boothby. Maren said their experience at the Trent Port Marina was amazing, prompting them to stay an extra day and explore the Front Street Farmers’ Market, Quinte West Doors Open event and the Food Trucks United event. “Everyone is super nice, the marina is a great location too because you can

began three years. “We didn’t know what to expect because we come from Toronto, we were skeptical at first to be honest but we came down here and the energy from people was amazing, they were just so nice, we loved it, we got a good response and now we’re back,” he said.
Jones said it was awesome to see so much support for a food trucks event and, with all the love and hard work he puts into his food, he said it’s nice to have such a positive response. Having done multiple United Way See ‘United Way’ Page B4

Agricultural Hall of Fame honours new inductees BY TERRY MCNAMEE
Stirling – Six new members joined the Quinte Agricultural Hall of Fame in a ceremony held Sunday at Farmtown Park in Stirling. The event, which began in 2006, honours people for their contributions to agriculture and the food industry in the counties of Hastings, Prince Edward, Northumberland and Lennox & Addington. The ceremony was held in the park’s Heritage Village. “(It was) a great day.” said emcee Wayne Martin. “Nominees for this year who didn’t make it are eligible to be re-nominated next year.” Norm McWaters of Belleville spent much of his career in the dairy industry with Agriculture Canada as a cheese grader and dairy products inspector in various parts of Ontario. After retiring to Belleville, he became secretary-treasurer of the Central Ontario Cheesemakers’ Association, and he still grades cheese for three eastern Ontario cheesemakers. A few years ago, a cheese he selected for Empire Cheese to enter in the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto won the Grand Champion title. His retirement hobby is beekeeping, and he is secretary of the Quinte Beekeepers Association and vice-president of the Ontario Beekeepers Association. McWaters also has a strong connection to Farmtown Park, where he was the first curator. He set up the cheese factory display and has donated many items to the museum. He also served as a municipal councillor in Thurlow prior to its amalgamation with Belleville. Keith and Marjorie Donnan of Hastings County bought their first farm in 1960-61 and were heavily involved in the dairy industry. Marjorie, who passed away in 2016, was involved in CANFARM, an early attempt by the government at creating a computerized farm records system, was secretary-treasurer of the Hastings County Holstein Club and served two four-

year terms as a member of the Ontario Farm Markets Marketing Commission. Keith served in several positions with both the local Holstein club, Dairy Herd Improvement and Holstein Canada, and has judged the breed all over the world. Their farm received a Master Breeders Award in 1989. The Donnans have hosted two Hastings County Ploughing Matches, several Holstein Twilight Meetings and 4-H. They also were heavily involved in church activities and mission work. Douglas Lyal Parks (1918-1992), born in Prince Edward County, was a farmer, scientist, writer and teacher whose life was spent on crop improvement.

After farming a short time, he worked as chief instructor and extension specialist in field husbandry at Kemptville Agricultural School, then was director of the soils and crops branch of the Ontario Department of Agriculture. After that, he served from 1963 to 1973 as Deputy Minister of Agriculture in the Nova Scotia Department of Agriculture, then moved back to Prince Edward County to farm. His book on crop production in eastern Canada was published by McClelland and Stewart in 1955. Parks received many awards and citations for his work as a soil and crop specialist and was inducted into the On-
tario Agricultural Hall of Fame in 1998. He and his wife Hazel were active in the United Church and the Rotary Club. At the ceremony, he was represented by John, one of their five sons. Thomas Glenfield (Glen) Cole (1908-1990), who was represented by his son Allan, was born in Northumberland County. He was involved with the Ontario Cream Producers’ Board and was a founding member of the Ontario Milk Marketing Board. After retiring from that board in 1971, he served on the board and later as president of the Dairy Farmers of Canada and for many years was a member of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture. For 20 years, Cole served on the Bewdley Public School Board and a term on the Hamilton Township Planning Board. He was choir director at Plainview United Church his whole adult life, taught Sunday school, sang in the barbershop choir in Port Hope and also sang in the Northumberland Philharmonic Choir in Cobourg. He was a recipient of the Ontario Bicentennial Medal. Eric S.J. Kaiser was raised in Prince Edward County and served four years in the Canadian Armed Forces. After that, he developed a poultry-crop operation in Adolphus Township at his Kaiser Lake Farms. He is recognized as an innovator in crop production, soil health and an early adopter of no-till cropping with an emphasis on drainage, erosion control and manure management. His farm has hosted many field days and experiments studying soil compaction, cover crop systems and related topics and is a noted speaker on these issues, both in Ontario and across Canada. He has chaired the L and A Soil and Crop Association, was director of the Innovative Farmers’ Association of Ontario and was named a Soil Champion for both Ontario and Canada. He was named a Paul Harris Fellow by the Napanee Rotary Club.
Avro Arrow test model found in water near PEC BY MAKALA CHAPMAN
Members of a Canadian search team are celebrating after achieving something many before have tried but failed to do — locate one of the original test models of the Avro Arrow. In a news conference held in Toronto Sept. 8, OEX Recovery Group’s Raise the Arrow expedition team unveiled a series of photos and videos captured from the bottom of Lake Ontario near Point Petre. Covered in hundreds of zebra mussels and other debris, the footage depicts the outline of a triangularly-shaped object resting peacefully on its backside. Expedition leader John Burzynski said once the crew’s remotely operated vehicle came across the object, they were 99 per cent certain they’d found what they had been looking for. Sonar imagery was sent down to investigate the one-eighth scale replica before confirming the find. “Discovering the first plane is one thing,” he said. “There was no guarantee that we would even find one.” Between 1954 and 1957, nine test models of the Avro Arrow were launched over Lake Ontario before the aviation program, supporting the construction of the aircraft, was cancelled. Now almost 60 years after the fact, the debated aircraft is back in the limelight. Burzynski added that with this discov-

ery, the hope of finding the other models becomes more realistic. “Now we know about the area that they would of all come raining down into the lake,” he said. “We are certainly right in the heart of the system right now
and that’s exactly where we were hoping to be.” In addition, the Avro enthusiast noted that the expedition has revealed a different and equally exciting find that he deemed a “discovery within a discovery.”

On top of the nine models resting in Lake Ontario, and the two that were tested in Virginia back in the 1950s, Burzynski said more test models had been fired than originally thought. “It turns out that they had some pretests to test the rockets and the rocket rigs, which had models on them as well,” he said. “We’re not sure how many, but there are more targets out there than what we were initially looking for.” He said if he were to guess, he imagined 15 additional models could be at the bottom of the lake due to the number of booster rockets and other debris the team have found. As for the expedition’s prized discovery, which still is currently on the floor of Lake Ontario, Burzynski said a team of divers will be sent down in the next two weeks to inspect it. “They’re going to cut away some of the zebra mussels as part of their investigation of it so they can figure out how to lift it and what condition it is in,” he said. “Ultimately we’ll know for sure once we bring it up to the surface.” Concrete plans for when the test model will be brought out of the water have not yet been made. Until then, the expedition team said they are in the process of continuing their search for other models and currently have around 200 objects of interest to investigate.

Low-cost rabies vaccinations a wise use of funds BY JOHN CAMPBELL
Northumberland County – There's more reason than usual to get pets vaccinated against rabies at clinics later this month: Ontario has seen a more than 10-fold increase in the number of rabies cases. Last year, 288 cases of rabies were confirmed in the province, compared to only 24 cases in 2015, and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency said there has been 88 rabies cases recorded in Ontario in 2017 through the end of July. “With the rapid rise in rabies cases found in wildlife certain parts of Ontario over the past
two years, it’s even more important to get your pets vaccinated,” Md Azad, a public health inspector with the The Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit, said in a news release. “Rabies is fatal, so getting pets vaccinated is an important part of caring for animals and being a responsible pet owner. In this area, it’s also mandatory for pet owners to get their cats and dogs vaccinated for rabies.” The health unit and local veterinarians are teaming up to provide low-cost rabies vaccination clinics on Saturday, Sept. 30, in Brighton, Campbellford, Cobourg and Port Hope. An
early clinic is also set for Saturday, September 23, in Perrytown. The cost is $30 per animal (cash only). No examination of the animal will take place at the clinic, and participating veterinarians ask that dogs be on leashes and cats in carriers. Hrushy Veterinary Housecall Services will hold a clinic at the Codrington Fire Hall (County Road 27) from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. English Line Veterinary Services will host a clinic at 527 County Road 38 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. In the Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge area, rabies were found last year only in three
bats, not domestic animals, Azad said in an interview. The annual clinics are having “a positive impact” because no domestic animals exposed to rabies showed signs of the disease when tested. About 2,000 cats and dogs are vaccinated each year in the district — 2,160 animals in 2014 and 1,926 animals in 2015. Azad noted that some municipalities require proof of vaccination before issuing licences to pet owners for their animals. For more information on the clinics or rabies prevention, call the health unit on 1-866-8884577 or visit www.hkpr.on.ca.

in May,” he said. “It’s a good charity, they’ve done a lot of things, it’s supporting the community and we feel like we want to put ourselves behind this because community is the number one thing and helping people is the number one thing, so it’s just a good thing for us to do.” Launching a food truck made sense to expand the Burger Revolution business, he said, which has now led to catering opportunities and events. “If people can’t come to Belleville at least we can go wherever they are and still deliver the same type of food we’re serving in Belleville,” he said, adding being part of the food truck culture is a positive experience. “We always knew that food trucks would blow up soon, it took a little longer than we thought it would for gourmet trucks but we’re happy to be a part of it because we know the stuff that we offer is along the same line of the food trucks from Toronto or Ottawa or Kingston.”

fundraising events in Toronto, Jones said it’s important to do things for others. “It’s nice to be doing something for someone else, it’s a nice thing to do and we feel good leaving from here,” he said. T Dot’s Naansense food truck will definitely be back next year, he said, as they look forward to the event every year. “We keep all of our other events to the side so we can come here, people call us and try to book us for this day but we have to say sorry, we already have an event,” he said. Belleville’s Burger Revolution attended the event for the first year after recently acquiring a food truck. Jeff Camacho, owner of Burger Revolution, said that he knew he always wanted to be a part of the event and was finally able to be involved this year. “This was the year, our food truck launched

Province ponies up $5.1 million Meeting to focus on bridging the distance for local homelessness BY JACK EVANS
A celebratory air dominated the Hastings County Council Chambers Sept. 12 as news of a provincial commitment of almost $5,100,000 was announced to address homeless issues in the county. The funds are under the province’s new “Home for Good” program, an attempt to eradicate homelessness in Ontario by 2025. Locally, the money will be directed to 40 supportive-housing units throughout the county. There was no indication where those units will be built or if they will be created in one or more locations. The spectator gallery was almost full in anticipation of the announcement, which the county’s joint Community and Human Services Committee first recommended for approval only a few weeks ago. The letter from Peter Milczyn, Minister of Housing, stated his office “received 46 strong proposals from service managers. I am pleased to advise you that the County of Hastings proposal was successful and has been approved for funding as indicated.” The amounts listed were $5,097, 607 for capital costs for the 40 units and about $1.5 million for the first three years of operation, part of a long term commitment for the province to pay fully for operations into the future. The county is expected to contribute up to $1.6 million toward the capital costs of creating the housing units. Warden Rodney Cooney, in making the announcement, said, “This is a great day for Hastings County.” He also recognized that the application’s success involved a co-operative effort by several county and community agencies. Cooney invited comments from representatives of those agencies, including Police Chief Ron Gignac, who testified that homelessness issues resulted in 826 calls for assistance to his department last year alone. He said it was a problem that had to be dealt with and something got done. “This is
a major step forward,” he concluded. Belleville Fire Chief Mark MacDonald said the urgency to address a serious homelessness issue here was touched off with the closure of the Bell Marine residence on Dundas Street East in Belleville. He said he was amazed by how county social services workers pulled together a team of various agencies in the community to cooperate on resolving the issue, and then followed through with a successful application for new supportive housing units. The key problem is a safe place for shelter, MacDonald stressed. Gary Laws from the Addictions Foundation also stressed that safe, adequate shelter is a key component in dealing with his type of problems. He said that in preparation for the new units, his agency will now start to hire and train specialized staff to work with residents of the new residences. County CAO Jim Pine reminded that “other communities today did not get the same kind of letter,” and said the new project is “a giant step forward.” He thought the key reason for the county’s success was the detailed preparation and the working together by so many different agencies and departments. To help cover early development costs, the committee also approved a recommendation to county council to apply for “seed funding” from the Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation. Funds of up to $50,000 are available as a non-repayable contribution under the program. There are no indications yet where any of the housing units will be built will actually be built. Erin Rivers, director of the Community and Human Services Department, asked about how many more units might be needed to solve the local homeless problem, said, “I don’t think we’ll ever have enough housing of this type, but this project will make a huge dint in the problem.”

The Poverty Roundtable of Hastings Prince Edward is hosting a public meeting next week to discuss local issues. The roundtable group formed in 2013 to look at things that can be done to address the causes of poverty and to broaden the community’s capacity to do so by working together. The group is made up of approximately 400 members from across Hastings and Prince Edward counties. Members come from social and health services, faith communities, business sectors, municipalities and community members interested in both ending poverty and improving prosperity for all. Quarterly, the Roundtable hosts public meetings to create opportunities to learn and to push for improvements to reduce poverty in our communities. The next public meeting is slated to take place from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on September 27, at St. Paul’s United Church, 1 Hastings Street, Bancroft.
The meeting will focus on bridging the distance – and building on rural and urban work and action to address inequality in Hastings and Prince Edward Counties. North Hastings Community Trust is hosting the roundtable. Recent census data indicates an increase in low incomes across much of Hastings and Prince Edward Counties. In 2015, 17.6 per cent were in low income, while in 2005, 14.7 per cent of persons in Belleville lived in low income. In 2015, 13.5 per cent were in low income, while in 2005, 12.7 per cent of the persons in Prince Edward County lived in low income2. In 2015, 25.4 per cent of the persons in Bancroft lived in low income. Provincially 14.4 per cent of the population is living in low income. The meeting is open to the public and the Poverty Roundtable HPE encourages all community members to attend. There is no cost to attend. Contact Tanya Dutton at tanya@povertyroundtablehpe.ca or (613) 779-7477.
CHILDHOOD CANCER ONGOING RESEARCH With the support of our generous donors, the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) has invested more than $50 million in research to help children fight and survive cancer over the last 15 years. Dr Sumit Gupta fromThe Hospital for Sick Children was awarded a CCS Quality of Life Research Grant in 2016. Currently Dr. Gupta is looking into the risk of mental health side effects as a result of childhood cancer. It’s devastating to learn that your child has been diagnosed with cancer. Cancer affects both the child and their family. Little is known about the long term impact of childhood cancer on the mental health of survivors and their families. Dr. Gupta is examining Ontario health records to assess whether childhood cancer survivors, their mothers and their siblings are more likely to experience mental health issues as adults, compared to the public. This work may identify groups of people at risk for mental health challenges and can inform the design of resources to help.
With the support of a CCS Prevention Research Grant awarded in 2014, Dr Rod Bremner from Mount Sinai Hospital is looking into preventing cancers caused by a defective gene. Some genes, known as tumour suppressors, play an important role in preventing cancer. When these tumour suppressor genes are defective, cancer can grow. RB1 is one of these genes – in nearly all cancers, RB1 is defective. Infants with this defective gene are prone to an eye cancer called retinoblastoma, and many other cancers later in life. Dr Bremner has identified drugs that counteract the cancer causing proteins that take advantage of defective RB1. He has developed an eyedrop to optimize drug delivery. His ongoing research is testing whether this eyedrop can block the development of retinoblastoma. Given the widespread importance of RB1, this research could lead to ways to prevent many other types of cancer.

At the 2017 World Crokinole Championship decided to host an annual World Crokinole Championship, to honour the area invention, and it takes place on the first Saturday of June each year. I decided to attend the event, held in the Tavistock & District Recreation Centre, and I was certainly surprised to find that the arena floor was packed with avid crokinole players. In fact, more than 450 players were there, and some spectators as well, and the event ran from 8:30 am well into the late evening. It’s a full day that escalates in tension as it goes on, culminating with the evening singles finals (and its $1,000 cash prize). For the past few years, the singles final has been a battle of young, highly ranked players, but this year saw an older veteran (Robert Bonnett of Wingham, Ont.) take the top prize. He defeated Jon Conrad of Milverton (a two-time World Champion) in a very close final. Robert humbly stated: “I think I was just lucky.” More than 80 competitors battled in the adult singles category. Pre-tournament favourite (and last year’s champion) Justin Slater was eliminated in the playoff round, but he still received the trophy for the most twenties (104). I spoke with Nathan Walsh, a committee member and promotions person for this year’s event - and a top player himself - and I asked him about any unusual tournament events that have taken place over the EXPERIENCE THE ROAD TO years.

As a youngster, I can remember playing this rather strange board game called Crokinole. My sister and parents would take turns shooting discs across the circular playing surface, trying to knock away opposing discs and having our discs land as close as possible to the board’s centre. As the years passed, my children and grandchildren would play this game, once in a while, with my mom or an aunt, and a crokinole board has remained in the family to this very day. It has not been used very often, but it’s still there as an option. This past spring, I just happened to read about the World Crokinole Championship that was to be held in Tavistock, and I decided that that would be a rather unique event to cover. Apparently craftsman Eckhardt Wettlaufer made the first crokinole board in 1876, near Tavistock, Ont., as a fifth birthday present for his son. That board is now to be found in Kitchener’s Joseph Schneider Haus Museum, a national historic site. Tavistock eventually

est competitor (89), and Rachel Beierling was the youngest (5). I met Sherill Calder at the registration desk on tournament day, and she was also able to provide me with some additional interesting facts about the big event. There were players in attendance from all across Canada, from Newfoundland to British Columbia, including a record number from PEI (11). There were also players from 8 states in the U.S. In the past, she said that competitors have also come from such countries as Germany, France, Scotland, England, Chile, and Australia. There were no international competitors this year, but she pointed out that a real positive this time was that a record setting “31 per cent of the players were new to the tournament this year.” Although the big event appears to be the adult singles category, there are several others, including intermediate, recreational, and junior singles. There are also cue singles and doubles (played with a short cue and a lazy susan-style crokinole board) and some regular crokinole doubles categories, too. I was
particularly interested in watching the doubles event, for I discovered that a father and son from Belleville, David and Matt Brown, were competing (and finished in a very respectable 8th place).
The Belleville Connection I learned that Belleville has a crokinole club, and it hosts an annual crokinole tournament each September. This year it will be held on Sept. 23 at the Quinte Sports & Wellness Centre, so here’s an opportunity to see some of these competitors in action. I also discovered that the Belleville stop is just one of several on the crokinole circuit, for these players compete in several Ontario destinations each year (including Owen Sound, London, St. Jacobs, and Hamilton).

Want to see more wildlife on your land? Since 2007, Forests Ontario has been helping landowners to attract more “nature” to their land with the 50 Million Tree Program. Over the life of this program, more than 22 million trees have been planted on private land, and most landowners have cited the attraction of wildlife as their prime reason for signing up with the program. Landowners with a minimum of 2.5 acres (one hectare) of plantable land may be eligible for this incentive program. “Many trees provide pollen and nectar for bees and other pollinators early in the spring before fruit trees and plants flower. Adding trees to my land was beneficial for my bees, and trees are also important because they provide homes for nesting birds and animals,” says Forests Ontario green leader, Karin Tomosky. Animals large and small can benefit from the presence of trees, which provide a potential food source, as well as protection from predators and severe weather. Expanding the tree cover on a property can create habitat for wildlife — and can quickly start to attract birds, small mammals and pollinators. As well, forested riparian (shoreline) areas are important for their combination of improving water quality, reducing streambank erosion and providing cover to a host of land and aquatic creatures. Through the 50 Million Tree Program, landowners are able to access funding support of up to 75 per cent of total planting costs as well as ongoing forest management assistance. A local planting partner — an experienced forestry professional — will work

with you to create a plan that suits your property’s unique needs and help improve the value of your land. Fall is prime time for the planting partners to visit landowners to evaluate their properties for the 50 Million Tree Program. Interested landowners should act now to set up a site visit. This allows time for site preparation before trees are planted in the spring. To submit an application, visit forestsontario.ca/50MTP. For additional questions, contact the forestry outreach co-ordinator, Suzanne Perry, at 1-877-646-1193 ext. 239 or at sperry@forestsontario.ca.

Definition needs to change: chamber BY JOHN CAMPBELL
Trent Hills – Trent Hills Chamber of Commerce doesn’t like the way the federal government defines small business. Its definition, 100 or fewer employees, “is too broad,” says THCC chair Jeff Hamilton. It’s businesses with one to 19 employees “that are vital to small towns and villages across rural Canada, and they create that smalltown community atmosphere within large urban centres,” he said in a news release. Those same businesses were responsible for 87.7 per cent of the change in net employment – 1.2 million jobs overall – that took place between 2005 and 2015, according to the Key Small Business Statistics Report published in June 2016.
A more accurate definition of what a small business is is important because members are telling the chamber how difficult it is to navigate government websites, regulations and legislation “without the human resources department that larger companies often have,” Hamilton said. “The current programming available for small business is very limited if you not an exporter, in the technology sector or conduct research and development. Creating a new focus and priority for this business category is key to making changes.” Trent Hills is working with other chambers in the area “to achieve our goal,” Hamilton said. “Our next step is for the Canadian
Chamber of Commerce (CCC) to adopt our policy as a resolution for advocacy.” THCC executive director Nancy Allanson said she will be attending the annual general meeting of the CCC in New Brunswick later this month to speak on behalf of the policy resolution. Getting the Northumberland Central, Port Hope and District, Brighton/Cramahe and Greater Peterborough chambers of commerce to co-sponsor the policy resolution “was key” in getting it “to this stage of the process,” she said. The Trent Hills chamber received an award to cover the entire cost to attend the AGM and conference “thanks to the generosity of conference sponsors.”
GET READY FOR FALL Judges Paul Garbett, left, and Steve Snider, flank first prize winner of $2,000, Judy Harper of Oshawa. Jack Evans/Metroland BY JACK EVANS
Dozens of people vied for cash rewards totalling several thousand dollars during the plein air painting festival earlier this month. From the nooks and corners throughout Belleville, local and visiting artists took part in the festival which ran Sept. 7-9. The festival was a Quinte Arts Council 50th anniversary project. At the wrap-up reception in the Parrott Gallery Sunday afternoon, competitors got to hear the professional judges render their verdicts, often adding some constructive critiques. The judges were Paul Garbett, Coopers Falls, and Steve Snider, who testified they had tough decisions to make and praised the high calibre of paintings entered. Quinte Arts Council officials said there were 27 artists in adult categories plus more than double that for student artists. With prizes at $2,000 for the first place open category winner, one of the luckiest entries was from a five-year-old girl who won the elementary age prize of $200.

“Her first painting and she got $200 for it,” quipped one of the judges. Arts council officials refused to reveal the girl’s full name in public. Judy Harper of Oshawa won the big prize with a painting of a section of rapids on the Moira River. Another water scene of water colours placed second for $1,500, by Dalibor Djancik of Toronto and third was a challenging oil and wax landscape of a vineyard by Andrew Csafordi of Bloomfield. Another category, supported by the Downtown Business Improvement Area, was won by Durban Castiguay, for a scenic shot of the lower bridge. A category for “chaos” to reflect the downtown construction, went to a large painting of a yellow backhoe on Bridge Street, by coincidence, in front of Gallery 121 art gallery. Judge Snider also commented on how plein air painting is so challenging, combatting unpleasant or cold weather conditions, pesky insects, curious and distracting spectators and a constantly moving sun.

Take it Outside
That backyard can be an oasis
By Carson Arthur
Useable space in the backyard is always top priority in every one of my designs. This may offend a few of the gardeners out there, but if you don’t have a spot to sit outside with family and friends and enjoy the roses, then those blooms are a wasted opportunity! When it comes to creating useable space, most homeowners go with either wood or stone. When it comes to costs, decks will always be the “less expensive option” in creating an outdoor living space when compared to patios. Even if you choose high-end materials, the labour required to install a deck is less, helping to reduce your overall cost. Installation is also a big benefit for choosing a deck. The way a deck is built allows you more creativity in location. Because the actual structure is built above the ground, tree roots, wet soil, even big slopes can be easily overcome. Even a DIY’er can have great success installing a simple deck structure with plenty of how-to videos available online. Unfortunately, wood decks don’t mix well with the elements as compared to some other outdoor materials like stone and concrete. Sun, snow, rain, ice and hail can all deteriorate
Now Hiring for the following positions:
unprotected wood, reducing its lifespan significantly. We are now seeing more products entering into the market that extend the life of your deck. Composites like Trex (www.Trex.com) mix plastics with wood, allowing you to have a deck that lasts up to 25 years. Even the traditional green pressuretreated wood is getting a facelift with new products like MicroPro Sienna (www.microprosienna.com), which is a rich brown toned wood that uses a stain with smaller molecules allowing for deeper penetration. The popularity of the patio makes a lot of sense. Canadians want lowmaintenance and there are few things that require less effort than stone. A properly installed patio with a good base and jointing sand can easily last 25 years. That’s one important reason to make sure you pick a stone that you will love the entire time you have the space. It also justifies the costs. Patios rank as one of the highest expenses for outdoor renovations but if you average the cost over the lifespan and the increased home-value of up to 12 per cent (Century21, Canada); patios are a smart investment. The evolution of the patio stone has come a long way from the two-foot by two-foot concrete slabs that I keep replacing in older backyards. With more colours, shapes and sizes available, choosing a patio is just like choosing flooring for a living room or a kitchen. When it comes to size or patterns, there
really is no single answer. I always tell homeowners to go and see products in an actual installation instead of just from a pamphlet before they commit. I personally choose stones that are in the grey or tan tones as they create a neutral backdrop for some dynamic furniture or art pieces. The biggest trends for 2015 are man-made stones designed to look natural. Wood grained patio stones in natural browns and greys has me the most excited of all the outdoor options. (Rinox.ca) Patios are built on the ground. This is very important for two reasons. The first, involves basement windows. Most decks need support structures built underneath them, often blocking the light and the view for basement spaces. A patio can be built much lower, allowing for more light and less obstruction. The second important reason has to do with privacy. Most urban homeowners struggle with privacy in the backyard from their neighbours. Traditionally, decks are elevated, making a privacy situation even worse. With a patio being lower in the yard, you naturally feel less on display. I always tell homeowners to never spend more than 12 percent of your home’s value when adding a deck or a patio. If you can stay within that amount, odds are, you’ll increase your home’s value by the same amount and you’ll get every penny back when it’s time to sell. Why spend money that you’re not going to get back?

Teachers donate to Quinte Conservation educational programs The International Honorary Organization for Women Educators has made a big splash with Quinte Conservation. The local Alpha Delta Kappa (ADK) Lambda chapter of the group made donations to support Quinte Conservation’s Wild About Wildlife events and educations programs, including Stream of Dreams and Yellow Fish Road. Their efforts help to make these educational events free for the public. ADK member Kathryn Crawford said, “The Wild About Wildlife event in July was a fabulous program for teaching children about
wildlife in our environment. Approximately 400 children had opportunity to learn about water drainage from Quinte Conservation’s enviroscape model, identify local bugs, and talk to experts while observing fascinating creatures like native snakes and birds of prey.” Crawford added, “ADK Lambda chapter is a local group of teachers whose main interest is to provide exciting educational opportunities to children. “During this coming school year, classes of students may participate in popular activities like Stream of Dreams,
where children can paint their own dream fish for their schools fence, and Yellow Fish Road where they learn to care for our natural water bodies like rivers, creeks, and lakes.” Quinte Conservation’s educational programs are open to school boards, camps, and organizations in the Quinte Conservation watershed. These popular programs book up fast. For more information or to book Stream of Dreams at your school, contact Maya Navrot, education and stewardship coordinator, at 613-9683434.
