Heels up, funds raised at annual Walk a Mile event By Stephen Petrick

Events - Belleville - Hairy man legs over hot, red high heels never looked so good. The sixth-annual Walk a Mile in Her Shoes event took place in downtown Belleville on Saturday, May 9, and the sunny spring weather made the shoes sparkle as a group, mostly of men, made its way down Front Street. Walk a Mile is an annual fundraiser put on by Royal LePage to benefit Three Oaks Foundation, a local organization that supports women and children fleeing abuse. It asks men to walk a mile wearing high heel shoes to raise awareness of domestic abuse. This year about 250 people took part in the walk, including men, women and even a few pets, said John-Ross Parks, a Royal LePage agent involved in the event. Those walkers helped to raise A group of participants make their way down Front Street during the Walk a Mile in Her Shoes event in downtown Belleville on Saturday, May 9. Many held signs denouncing domestic abuse. Photo: Stephen

Residents complain about park deal

By Jack Evans

News - Belleville - It’s not fair for Belleville to subsidize parks in one subdivision to a far greater extent than it does in other major subdivisions. That was the complaint of a deputation of two persons, one each from Settler’s Ridge north of Maitland and the Potter’s Creek subdivision at city council Monday evening. They pointed to a council decision a few weeks ago which amended its budget to provide for a new playground in the Canniff Mills subdivision at the east end of Maitland Drive, while similar playground hopes for their communities remain unfunded by council. They argued that their developers had set aside funds to create such parks but council has not kicked in any contribution so far while the ratio for the Canniff subdivision is 70 per cent city financing and 30 per cent by the community. Councillor Jackie Denyes said it was the locally generated community committee that raised funds and interest in their park, arranging a detailed design and working with city staff and council to get it approved. She and Councillor Mike Graham both suggested they form their own committees and get plans prepared, again working with city staff, and council should be sympathetic to their plans. Meana Altmadzai and Richard Wright said they knew of no such requirements, but argued that their own developer was the equivalent of such a committee, having made a budget and set aside a suitable area. They appeared to remain disappointed but thanked council for listening to their concerns and the advice of forming committees which they indicated they would act on.

Get tick smart

News - Belleville - Quinte Conservation is inviting the public to join Public Health Inspector Aptie Sookoo for a talk about ticks. Ticks are a reality for people who spend time outdoors, on their property, or at conservation areas and other trails. Some tick bites might result in Lyme Disease.
 The event takes place Tuesday, May 26, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at the Quinte Conservation Office, 2061 Old Highway 2 (corner of Old Highway 2 and Wallbridge-Loyalist Road). Admission is free, but donations will be taken for the building of an accessible trail. Quinte Conservation is a community-based environmental protection agency. It serves 18 municipalities in the watersheds of the Moira, Napanee and Salmon Rivers and Prince Edward County.

ingly dressed was Darryl Joudrey, a local businessman who owns Papa’s Kitchen Pizzeria. He wore a large red top-hat, red sunglasses and a fluffy red scarf to match his high heels. “I asked a lot of women [for] any advice, as I’m going to be wearing heels,” he said. “They said, ‘accessorize.’” Turning more serious, he said he had no qualms about wearing the heels because he knows how important the cause is. “When I was young my mom was in a women’s shelter,” he said. “And I like to support charities.” The walk began shortly before Belleville city Councillor Jack Miller got the crowd ready. Wearing high heel shoes himself, he took to a podium and declared why everyone was there. “Bottom line is everyone has to be aware that domestic violence has to stop,” he said, enthusiastically.

about $27,000 for the Royal LePage Shelter Foundation. “It was awesome,” he said. “We had a great turnout. We’re above and beyond happy.” In its six years, Walk a Mile has evolved from a simple walk to an all-day event based out of Empire Square, the parking lot between the Royal LePage building and the Empire Theatre. This year there was a garage sale inside the Royal LePage clearing house, which also contributed to the funds. There was also a classic car show in the parking lot. But the key moment still occurs at noon when the walkers, after getting especially made large-sized high heel shoes fitted–sometimes with the help of tape wound around the ankles–take to the start line and begin marching south toward city hall. Many dress in interesting clothing and hold signs, with anti-abuse slogans, as they walk. Among those interest-

Police station moves ahead a notch

News - Belleville - Within a few months, Belleville residents could have some idea of how a new police station may look. Council Monday approved a motion calling for a request for proposals for suitable architects

to create designs. At least one member, Councillor Mitch Panciuk, expressed the hope that designs could be prepared by “end of this summer.” The report, from CAO Rick Kester, specified sites for the building should focus on “city

owned properties on the fairgrounds and the Neil Britton Public Utilities Centre “and that council authorizes the CAO to undertake a process to retain the appropriate professional architectural firm to assist with site and building concepts as well as as-

sociated project cost estimates.” The motion drew some input from Mayor Taso Christopher who also wanted to include a parcel of city-owned land on Adam Street once purchased for a new fire hall. That drew concerns from Councillor Paul Carr that he

suitable,” he reported. That situation remains the same, said acting clerk Matt MacDonald, after reviewing more than 100 properties. But senior staff and perhaps even provincial regulations oppose waiving of regular fees. Council voted to allow its own grants committee to make a decision on the request once the agency makes a formal application. Belleville and District Chamber of Commerce plans a busy year, operating six major events on behalf of the city for a contract price. Chamber manager Bill Saunders addressed council at some length outlining the various events, include the annual Waterfront Festival and Santa Claus Parade. He also proudly displayed a new colourful city guidebook handout, prepared with the assistance of city staff. Council voted to approve the chamber’s request for assistance and refer it to staff.

Council also voted to accept a “requests for proposals reply” for design engineering for reconstruction of Herchimer Avenue from Dundas Street southerly. Councillor Egerton Boyce contributed a hope for a “multi-purpose pathway” instead of sidewalks if that could be accommodated as it would tie in with the Bayshore trail for bicycle and hiking use. Council also wrestled with a request from the international charity Habitat for Humanity to waive development fees totalling about $11,000 per lot for two lots the agency plans to build on on Golfdale Road. Councillor Jack Miller said council has long been a supporter of the agency having donated some building lots when it first came to the city. “We wanted to do more but could not find a city owned lot that was

Salvation Army hosting open houses May 14 News - Belleville - The Salvation Army is holding open houses at each of its three Belleville locations on Thursday, May 14, hoping it will give the community a chance to learn more about its always muchneeded humanitarian services. The open houses involve the church, located at 290 Bridge Street West, the Thrift Store, at 161 Bridge Street West and the Community and Family Services office at 295 Pinnacle Street. The open houses run from 10

a.m. to 6 p.m. “We are grateful for the support we receive from the community and we are opening our doors to allow people to come in and see what we do at each location,” said Abby Mills, the Director of Community and Family Services. The Thrift Store will be offering special open house sales on merchandise and will have entertainment for children. The Salvation Army’s Emergency and Disaster food truck will also be on site that day.

Those who visit the church may hear the Salvation Army’s brass band playing or see some of the church’s many programs in action. The open house at the church also provides members of the community the opportunity to meet Majors Wil and Catherine Brown-Ratcliffe, the church’s pastors, who were posted to Belleville last July and who give leadership to all of The Salvation Army’s programs in Belleville. As for the Community and Family Services office, it’s a

News - Belleville - A group of local residents is looking to form a new association to give the people of Belleville more voice and more input with their local government, and to lobby city council to lower taxes. An information meeting about Belleville’s first ratepayers association will take place Thursday, May 28, from 7 to 8 p.m. in the administration boardroom on the second floor of Quinte Mall. The room can be accessed by the stairs near the food court or through the Quinte Mall tower entrance on the northwest side of the mall.

The organizers are hoping to form a local group, such as those that exist in other communities, that will allow citizens to work with city hall and city councillors to make constructive and effective input into how the city is working, and to make a substantial difference in the community. In a press release, the group says such citizens groups have proven to be highly effective in other communities. One such example, it cites, is in Burlington in the early 1990s where municipal tax increases were more than eight per cent each year. A citizen

group called the Halton Taxpayers Coalition helped reverse this trend to the point where for years tax increases at the city of Burlington were zero per cent each year.
One of the founders of this group, Neil Howie, will explain what this group did and how they worked co-operatively with local governments. Among the issues to The Salvation Army Church, at 200 Bridge Street West, is one of the locations of the Salvation Army Open House in Belleville on be discussed that worked in Halton May. 14.

great place for people to visit if they wish to learn more about the vital role the Salvation Army plays for community members in need. “We often give individuals and small groups a tour of our facility and describe for them what we do and invariably the response is, ‘I had no idea you do so much,’” said Mills. “Our facility at 295 Pinnacle Street is where we provide our meal programs, an emergency

food bank, a Drop-in Centre, as well as a wide variety of programs to assist individuals and families. Anyone who has dropped money into a local Salvation Army Christmas Kettle or sent in a donation in response to our Christmas Letter Appeal has provided us with some of the funding that we use to provide these programs in Belleville. “We are holding the open house to give us the opportunity

to show the community how we use the funding that we receive and to create awareness of the many programs that we offer. Our regular programs will be operating during the open house and we hope everyone who donates to support our programs, or who has ever passed by our building and wondered what we do, will come to the open house for a behind-the-scenes look at the Salvation Army Community and Family Services.”

News - Belleville - Belleville firefighters had a busy day Tuesday, May 5, as they responded to two separate structure fires, which combined for about $400,000 in damage. At 1:49 a.m. on May 5, the Belleville Fire Department received a report of a structure fire at a Pine Street residence. Upon arrival crews quickly confirmed that the fire was in the basement of one unit. An aerosol extinguisher quickly smothered the fire temporarily to allow firefighters to gain entry and apply water to the remaining fire. Crews checked for fire extension into other portions of the structure including the attic. The fire was under control within the first 20 minutes and was contained to the basement and a small portion of wall on the main floor. Fire Inspector Tim Vanhecke was called to the scene to investigate. The cause of this fire is not suspicious in nature, the department says, but it did launch an investigation. Damage was estimated at approximately $150,000. Then, at about 6:05 p.m. on May 5,

LETTERS LIFESTYLES TO THE EDITOR

Thanks to everyone who helped make the ENSS reunion a success Dear Editor, A little over two weeks ago ENSS hosted the school’s 60th Anniversary Reunion. By all accounts and based on comments on Facebook, by alumni guests, and my own recollections, it was a wonderfully successful and nostalgic event. This letter is an attempt to sincerely thank all who helped make it happen: Brighton businesses who gave sponsor support and generous prizes; individuals (they will know how they helped) include Ron Waddling, Mark Peister, local schoolrelated artists for prizes, Gala performers, George Hamilton, Lions Club, ENSS staff, Jim Millar and arena staff, local media, Carm Herrington, Del and ENSS Culinary class, Gala sound crew, the Barking Spiders … the list goes on. Finally I must recognize the members of the ENSS 60th Anniversary Committee who worked with diligence and easy consensus

throughout the whole process: Connie Hall, Helen Bonisteel, Geneva Kinney (arena decorations); Rick Vandertoorn (athletics); Angie Young (graphics and Facebook work); Paul Hussey (Gala); Gerald Banting (library mural); Sue Hoffman-Moore (Gala decorations from ENSS productions); Nancy Wilson (website development); Scott Pennington (dance committee); Dan Thompson; Gail Todd (quiet room); Liz Payette (children’s activities); Sherry Hamilton (Chamber of Commerce) and Cathy Herrington (registration and the many other things she did). Last, I must recognize and thank ENSS Principal Jeff Kawzenuk for his loyal support, common sense counsel and his huge efforts toward focussing on the school that was so obvious throughout the weekend. Sincerely, Bob Bird, Chairperson ENSS 60th Reunion Committee

Just more hypocrisy from Chiarelli Dear Editor, We were always made to believe that elected politicians spoke truthfully and acted in the best interests of those who elected them. And if you listen to Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli he promises that “every step we take is designed first and foremost with the ratepayers in mind.” Unfortunately for the electorate, Chiarelli’s words are cheap and this Liberal government has become bankrupt and untrustworthy. It was Chiarelli and his merry men and women who ushered in the disastrous Green En-

ergy Act which has triggered in a cost of billions of dollars to Hydro One customers. Chiarelli claims three other provinces are paying more for their power than Ontario so according to his twisted logic this makes it quite palatable to have energy costs so high. He fails to mention that small businesses are being forced to leave the province and most seniors are cheering mightily for socialism as they turn down their thermostats a few more degrees. What makes it particularly difficult to understand is that while

Let’s get rid of MPs’ flyers and some MPs

Dear Editor, I totally agree with Ken Leavens and Leslie Woof re: the political flyers. Here in the Peterborough riding, we are very fortunate as once our MP quit so did the political mailouts. The average person will not notice any difference without an MP. In the next election we need an option of NONE. If we could get rid of even half of them think of the savings. Dave Harris, Havelock

the Liberals are charging consumers astronomical energy rates they are still facing a deficit higher than most other jurisdictions in North America. The Ontario Liberals prove why taxpayers have to be protected by enacting a balanced budget amendment. Chiarelli should revise his comment to “every step we take is designed first and foremost to bamboozle the public, keep the government in power and continue to deceive like we have from the outset.” Rolly Ethier, Peterborough

Thanks for your letter Paul MacDonald Dear Editor, RE: Paul MacDonald’s letter regarding “It’s tax time. Stop complaining and just pay them.” I would like to give a medal to Paul MacDonald, or at least shake his hand, for his very well-written letter blasting Stephen Petrick for his column in which Petrick told all of us to stop complaining and just pay our taxes. We need far more clear-thinking people like Paul MacDonald, and fewer who think like Stephen Petrick. Steve Kirby, Belleville

OPINION

Grandkids say the darndest things too

More anti-terrorism laws Editorial Left-wing, rightwing, it makes no difference. Almost every elected government, confronted with even the slightest “terrorist threat,” responds by attacking the civil liberties of its own citizens. And the citizens often cheer them on. Gwynne Dyer Last week, the French government passed a new bill through the National Assembly that vastly expanded the powers of the country’s intelligence services. French intelligence agents will now be free to plant cameras and recording devices in private homes and cars, intercept phone conversations without judicial oversight, even install “keylogger” devices that record every key stroke on a targeted computer in real time. It was allegedly a response to the “Charlie Hebdo” attacks that killed 17 people in Paris last January, but the security services were just waiting for an excuse. Indeed, Prime Minister Manuel Valls said that the law was needed to give a legal framework to intelligence agents who are already pursuing some of these practices illegally. France, he explained, has never “had to face this kind of terrorism in our history.” Meanwhile, over in Canada, Defence Minister Jason Kenney was justifying a similar overreaction by saying that “the threat of terrorism has never been greater.” Really? In all the time since 9/11 there had never been a terrorist attack in Canada until last October, when two Canadian soldiers were killed in separate incidents. Both were lowtech, “lone wolf” attacks by Canadian converts to Islam–in one, the murder weapon was simply a car–but the public (or at least the media) got so excited that the government felt the need to “do something.” The Anti-Terror Act, which has just passed the Canadian House of Commons, gives the Canadian Security Intelligence Service the right to make “preventive” arrests in Canada. It lets police arrest and detain individuals without charge for up to seven days. The bill’s prohibitions on speech that “promotes or glorifies terrorism” are so broad and vague that any extreme political opinion can be criminalised.

Belleville News P.O. Box 25009, Belleville, ON K8P 5E0 250 Sidney Street Phone: 613-966-2034 Fax: 613-966-8747 Published weekly by:

In short, it’s the usual smorgasbord of crowdpleasing measures that politicians throw out when they want to look tough. It won’t do much to stop terrorist attacks, but that doesn’t matter as the threat is pretty small anyway. France has 65,000,000 people, and it lost 17 of them to terrorism in the past year. Canada has 36,000,000 people, and it has lost precisely two of them to domestic terrorism in the past 20 years. In what way were those lives more valuable than those of the hundreds of people who die each year in France and Canada from less newsworthy crimes of violence like murder? Why haven’t they changed the law to stop more of those crimes? If you monitored everybody’s electronic communications all the time, and bugged their homes and cars, you could probably cut the murder rate in half. The price, of course, would be that you have to live in an Orwellian surveillance state, and we’re not willing to pay that price. Not just to cut the murder rate. The cruel truth is that we put a higher value on the lives of those killed in terrorist attacks because they get more publicity. That’s why, in an opinion poll last month, nearly two-thirds of French people were in favour of restricting freedoms in the name of fighting extremism–and the French parliament passed the new security law by 438 votes to 86. The government in France is Socialist, but the opposition centre-right supported the new law too. Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s Conservative government in Canada is seriously right-wing, but the centre-right Liberals were equally unwilling to risk unpopularity by opposing it. On the other hand, the centre-left New Democrats and the Greens voted against, and the vote was closer in Canada: 183 to 96. And the Canadian public, at the start 82 per cent in favour of the new law, had a rethink during the course of the debate. By the time the AntiTerror Act was passed in the House of Commons, 56 per cent of Canadians were against it. Among Canadians between 18 and 34 years old, fully three-quarters opposed it. Maybe the difference just reflects the smaller scale of the attacks in Canada, but full credit to Canadians for getting past the knee-jerk phase of their response to terrorism. Nevertheless, their parliament still passed the bill. So should we chalk all this up as two more victories for the terrorists, with an honourable mention for the Canadian public? No, not really. Islamic State, al-Qaeda, and all the other jihadis don’t give a damn if Western democracies mutilate their own freedoms, as it doesn’t significantly restrict their own operations. The only real winners are the security forces.

By Lewis Zandbergen Editorial - I’m putting on an old hat with a new name this week; how does House Grandpa sound? It’s been about 25 years or so since I’ve written about my own children and their antics; they’re all grown now with kids of their own. Yup, there’s a new generation in town and they’re every bit as much fun as Jennifer, Peter and Sarah were all those years ago. And although my children’s antics could drive us to distraction two and a-half decades ago, we’re much more tolerant of the grandchildren’s behaviours. I believe my parents behaved the same way to their grandchildren. Denise and I now have a total of six grandkids between us; I inherited two when she and I married, and she inherited four. Keaton, now 20 and a rising star in the music industry (check out Sound Affiliation on Youtube), and Nathaniel live in Kingston; Serena and Eli live in Chesapeake, Virginia, and Jordan and Victoria live in Belleville. Of course, we see more of Jordan and Victoria than we do of the others. If you can recall that old show from the late 1950s hosted by Art Linkletter, Kids Say the Darndest Things, this column may resonate with you. Although Linkletter tried several reincarnations of the show well into the 1990s, they weren’t as mainstream, so those of you born after 1970 can check out clips of the show online. Times change but stay the same and kids still say the darndest things; there’s no better proof than listening to your grandchildren. We oldsters have a few aches and pains and Denise mentioned one day that her knee was hurting again. She was within earshot of the precocious Victoria who will turn three this June. “You have got to be kidding me!” with perfect inflections and cadence came in that cute little voice and it sent Denise into gales of laughter; since laughter is the best medicine, I imagine her knee has been better since then; I wish she’d say the same thing about her back while Victoria listened and that it would result in similar pain easement. Then there was the time not long ago after some furniture had been moved, that the television wasn’t hooked up yet. Victoria’s dad, with his characteristic patience, explained that it wasn’t working because he still had to adjust a few things. She took on her best superhero persona (“downloaded” via her older brother) and declared, “I’ll fix it with my superpowers!”

She gesticulated and waved her little hands all over the place but the TV refused to co-operate. It just refused to come on and she was left to explain her superpower failure. Adopting a supremely confident pose, she simply said, “Okay, I’ll be back in a minute.” We’ve learned it’s one of her favourite cop-out moves and she never did re-address the non-co-operative television issue again that evening. She may eventually become a politician. There’s no way a grandparent can avoid comparisons between their children growing up and their grandkids as they go through the stages of infant, toddler to confident first grader, high schooler and on into adulthood. Jordan, from whom his little sister absorbs a lot, is an expert on all things superhero. He can quote chapter and verse about the Ninja Turtles, knows who Superman, Batman and all their associated villains are and shares his father’s childhood admiration for Spiderman. He can spend hours (if you let him) telling all about who’s who and what kinds of powers they have. And this fount of information doesn’t stop until sleep hits some time in the late evening. I think it’s a safe bet most six-year-olds have the same ability. Serena and Eli have spent a few weeks with us for a few summers now. They are equally knowledgeable about kid things and listening to them is just as rewarding. It must be a parent’s lot in life to appreciate grandchildren. And it’s not because they come to visit and then go home; Denise and I love every minute with them and often feel a little sadder when they go. But summer is coming and they’ll spend a few weeks with us out in the country. Each of our grandkids is individual and while Keaton’s music may not be to my liking, I have immense admiration for the young man, he is dedicated; while my childhood knowledge of the “superhero” world was limited to Superman, Eli and Jordan’s affinity for these characters reminds me of my other childhood pleasure watching cowboy shows; I enjoy the delight Frozen and its characters (especially Olaf) give Victoria and I imagine Serena is just as enthralled; Nathaniel is into video gaming and while it’s also not my forte I am amazed at his prowess with the gaming challenges. I know all grandparents are justifiably proud of their grandchildren. We cherish them and their ability to make us laugh and at times they fill our hearts to bursting.

Shimmy Mob celebrates World Belly Dancing Day By Terry McNamee

News - Trenton - There was a whole lot of shaking going on in Trenton on Saturday, and Elvis was nowhere to be seen. Visitors to Trenton’s Front Street Farmers’ Market discovered more than a dozen women performing as a “Shimmy Mob” in celebration of World Belly Dancing Day. Gems were glittering in the sun and rows of coins were jingling as the women danced in time to Middle Eastern music. Organizer Sara Jane Gregg of Trenton, who teaches belly dancing in Stirling and Brighton, said there were Shimmy Mobs dancing to the same choreography all around the world to celebrate the day. Overall, she said, there were Shimmy Mobs held in 181 different cities on May 9, including places as diverse as Australia, India, Scotland, the USA, and several countries in Europe, Africa and Central and South America. World-wide, there were 2,370 danc-

ers taking part this year, Gregg said. All participants wore Shimmy Mob shirts, with each group having their country’s flag across the backs of their shirts. “Dancing today [in Trenton] we have 14,” she said. “In classes, we have from high school age to 80 years.” The annual event is always held on the second Saturday in May, and it’s not just for fun. While it does promote belly dancing as a fun and beautiful artistic activity and a great way to get fit, it also helps promote a variety of charities. The Trenton event was used to make people aware of the work done by Three Oaks, which provides shelter and services for abused women and their children. Three Oaks serves a large area, including Quinte West, Belleville, Hastings County and Prince Edward County.

News - Belleville - Community Development Council of Quinte (CDC-Q) is getting ready to launch its 16th annual Good Baby Box Food Drive for its Good Baby Box program. The Good Baby Box program provides jarred baby food, formula, diapers, cereal and other baby care items at a reduced cost to anyone with a child who resides in Hastings and/or Prince Edward Counties. Our theme this year, “Celebrate Babies Celebrate Community” is based on the idea that healthy babies contribute to healthy communities. This year, the CDC has a goal of 5,000 jars of baby food, which represents a ten per cent increase over the number of jars that were distributed last year. “We would like to see our annual baby food drive provide the program with all the jarred baby food needed for the year,” states Bev Heuving, program co-ordinator. “As we know, the costs are only going to continue to go up

on diapers, formula, baby food, and having the jarred food provided for the year would help us to keep our costs down and also prevent us from having to increase the costs of the Baby Boxes to the families using the program.” In 2014, the Good Baby Box program distributed 4,373 good baby boxes to 853 families, representing 1,416 children. Anyone can participate in the Baby Food Drive. We are asking the community to get involved: businesses, the faith community, schools, neighbourhoods or family members. The food drive runs from Mother’s Day to Father’s Day, May 10 to June 21. Donations can be dropped off at the office located at 65 Station Street, entrance at the back. Monetary donations are also accepted which will give the CDC the opportunity to buy large quantities when on sale. If you need your donation picked up or would like more information, please contact Bev Heuving at our office at 613-968-2466.

20 verbal and written warnings were issued as a result. An offence under environmental health rules resulted in a health hazard charge against the Greek Community Banquet Hall on Harder Drive as a result of 417 foot premises inspections. There were also 91 rabies investigations, small and recreational

water premises samplings and 268 public complaints, inquiries and requests for information. The health unit also endorsed and is helping to promote the Belleville Bike Month program May 31 to June 6 in Quinte West and Belleville. That includes several special events such as a pancake breakfast, commuter challenge,

nighttime glow ride and a pedal festival. The board also reviewed its financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2014. Finishing touches for the new two-storey headquarters building continue with demolition having begun on the old one-storey building.

News - Belleville - Quinte Conservation helped get 2,000 seedlings into the ground this spring with its Shrubs for Shorelines program. It’s the second year for the program. Quinte Conservation Education Coordinator Maya Navrot says, “We offer shoreline tree and shrub seedlings free to all of our local lake associations. We reached waterfront property owners right across our watershed thanks to the information being shared among waterfront property owners.� Navrot adds, “We use this program to educate waterfront property owners on the benefits of a natural shoreline. A naturalized shoreline is generally considered the best approach to protecting a lake’s edge. Maintaining or planting a buffer zone of native plants along shorelines will slow erosion, provide food and shelter for fish and wildlife species, and protect the property. Best of all, natural shorelines mean less work and more time to enjoy the

News - Belleville - On Wednesday, May 6, McDonald’s restaurants in several communities, including Belleville, Madoc and Quinte West, raised $37,700 for the Quinte Children’s Foundation through its annual McHappy Day event. The funds raised will help send 188 children from these communities to camp. Customers contributed to these funds, as $1 for every Big Mac, Happy Meal or hot beverage purchased went to the fundraising total. Ken Schmidt, owner of McDonald’s in Quinte West and the current board chair with the Quinte Children’s Foundation, said, “A great big ‘thank-you’ goes out to all of our customers, for making this event a huge success. This is the 22nd McHappy Day in Canada and, with the amazing support from all of our communities, we will be able to send a lot of kids to camp this year.

News - Belleville - Despite threatening showers, Mayor Taso Christopher, members of city council, city staff and representatives of the Downtown Belleville Improvement Association, Chamber of Commerce and Corcoran Excavation held a sod turning for the reconstruction of the north end of Front Street Monday morning. The event took place near the intersection of Victoria Avenue and Front Street where the con-

tractor had dumped a large pile of sand over the pavement to accommodate a traditional sod turning with a gold-coloured spade. “�This has been a long day,� commented the mayor about the months of planning involved in the project. “This is a big day for the city.� For the Belleville Downtown Improvement Association, Karen Parker, executive director, said, “We are looking forward to this project.� Chamber of Commerce Presi-

dent Richard Courneyea also strongly supported the disruptive project. “We’re excited about this. We know the journey will be worth it.� The work will embrace new and enlarged underground services, pavement and sidewalk and decorative touches including new street lighting. Designated as Phase 1 construction in the downtown, the project is valued at $21 million and is scheduled to be completed early next year.

Meeting on Sidney Reserve Funds invites public input By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Sidney Ward parks were the topic of discussion at a special meeting at Tuckers Corners on May 5. Councillor Karen Sharpe said the public will help decide where to spend reserve funds dedicated to Sidney. With her were Councillors Don Kuntze, Allan DeWitt and Rob MacIntosh. Public Works director Chris Angelo and Parks supervisor Ryan Andrews also provided input. Andrews did a power point presentation outlining all the parks located in Sidney. Kuntze noted that reserve funds have been sitting there since 1998. “I’m afraid they will sit there for another twenty years,” he said. “I would like to see them put to good use.” Al DeWitt commented that Ghent Park needs play structures. “An empty park is not wanted,” he said. Ed Sherry said the park in Wallbridge needs to be maintained and has been allowed to grow wild with weeds and brambles. “The gravel stuff is the pits,”

he added. “Kids heave it at one another.” Bill Gray said there is one kilometre of the Lower Trent Trail that has yet to be completed at Glen Ross. Christine Janssen commented that it is not city owned property. Wayne Cowan said there are several low-lying parks that could make use of farmland drainage tiles, then be seeded over. He said the Batawa waterfront park needs some benches. He added that the city could lease the privately owned Owl Field for good use. Carl Hagerman said they need a fence around the outfield at the Pat and Marie Tracey Memorial Park, a parking area and an improved tennis area. Greg said they should put a basketball hoop somewhere other than in the parking lot and cut the grass more often. Alec McNaught said they should have more plaques designating historic areas such as the Old Sidney Town Hall. Dave Simpson said there is a fire pit at the top of the hill in one

park that could be dangerous. Brenda Ingram said she was confused about the purpose of this meeting. She thought it was supposed to be about where the reserves are spent but nobody had mentioned how much that was. Al DeWitt said there have been several projects identified, including improving the parks. He said they include lighting on Highway 2, a grant fund, improvement of parks and setting aside industrial land in Sidney. “We haven’t set a budget yet,” Councillors Rob MacIntosh, Don Kuntze, Karen Sharpe and Al DeWitt hosted the meeting in Sidney. Photo: Kate Everson he said. He added there is $2 million to be split into five projects. With public input they want to find out what is on people’s minds. Terry Cassidy suggested making the entrances of the city more attractive and connecting with Introducing the New Save.ca Mobile Cash-Back Feature. Communities in Bloom.

Farmtown Park opens this weekend News - Stirling - Museum volunteers and officials arrived at Farmtown Park last week for the annual spring cleaning before opening the doors to the public. Museum Manager Margaret Grotek says about 30 supporters arrived ready for a day of work recently and were assigned various jobs, both inside and out, at the multi-building complex located behind the Stirling arena. Farmtown Park opens for the season this Saturday, operating seven days per week until September. The museum, which was es-

tablished and grown through donations and public support, features numerous agricultural displays, demonstrations and the activity-filled Discovery Centre where visitors can participate in a variety of experiments, view locally made films and operate simple machines. New this season, Grotek says, is the planned move of the Whitehead’s Soda Shop from the main building to Heritage Village as well as an expanded Quinte Agricultural Wall of Fame display. The 2015 inductees will be honoured at a special ceremony on September 20.

Other dates and events to remember, Grotek notes, include the Strawberry Social on June 21, Fibre Fest on July 12, Cruise Nite on July 15 and Grandparents Day on September 13. Further information on all the year’s events is available by contacting the museum or visiting their website at <www.farmtownpark.ca>. Farmtown Park is open daily from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. from the Victoria Day weekend until September 30. Later events, including the Starlite House Tour and Village Christmas are scheduled after season’s end, in late November.

Programs and workshops at the John M. Parrott Art Gallery

By Susan Holland

Belleville - Did you know there are arts programs, free of charge, held monthly in the John M. Parrott Art Gallery? We encourage you to investigate and try your hand at one soon. On the second Tuesday of every month, from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m., you can come out and be creative in our Open Studio. This is a noninstructional, casual way to make art with others, to be inspired and to learn. We welcome artists at all levels of expertise as well as those

who just want to give it a try. Drop in with your art supplies for this free program. On the second Friday of each month, pianist Rick Penner presents “Musical Gifts.� Each performance is themed and Rick really researches the musicians he’s covering. Often there will be voice accompaniment to Rick’s piano playing and always there are amusing anecdotes, told by Rick, about the featured musicians. And don’t be surprised if a sing-along spontaneously occurs!

Motor vehicle collision with pedestrian News - Belleville - On May 11, at 8:34 p.m., police responded to Dundas Street East in front of the police station in regards to a motor vehicle striking a pedestrian. A 19-year-old female was transported to hospital via ambulance with minor injuries. There will be no charges as a result of the police investigation. May 12, at 1 a.m., police arrested a 39-year-old Belleville male who was wanted by Renfrew OPP on several outstanding warrants. He was later picked up by the Renfrew OPP and transported to their detachment pending a bail hearing.

Every third Thursday, from 2 – 4 p.m., we open the doors to “The Drawing Room.� This is a life drawing program featuring draped human models. Again, this is non-instructional, but there are always artists on hand to offer tips and support. We invite everyone to drop in for this open and casual studio. A suggested donation of $3 to help to pay the models is appreciated. And new this year is “The Doodle Group� which runs on the third Friday of each month from 10 a.m. to 12. Join artists Rachel Comeau and Lori St. Clair as they guide you through a meditative, calming sequence of exercises in which you create amazing illustrative imagery. This new program has been so well received, it has been extended to offer more sessions. The Belleville Art Association also hosts a mini workshop on the last Tuesday of the month from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Each session is focused on a technique or subject and is led by qualified instructors. Again, a suggested donation of $3 for the instructors is appreciated. Call the gallery at 613-968-6731 x 2240 for information about this month’s theme. In addition to our regular programming, we are pleased to offer special events, art talks and musical concerts from time to time. The next concert is the Annual Carpe Diem String Ensemble Spring Concert on Saturday

June 13 from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. The theme for this concert is “Carpe Diem all-time favourites.� Each member of the orchestra selected a piece they enjoyed most over the years. The result is an eclectic mix of musical gems, including Brahms’ Hungarian Dance #5, Get Me to the Church on Time

from My Fair Lady, a Chopin Prelude, the famous Flower Duet from Lakme and Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 3. Each piece will be introduced by the person who selected it. The arrangements feature some solos for voice, oboe, violin and trombone. Whether you are an experi-

enced artist or have never held a paint brush in your life, we hope you will join us in the gallery for a few hours very well spent. A huge thank-you goes out to the artists, musicians and facilitators who give of their time and talent to bring these free programs to the gallery for us to enjoy.

Second annual Grapes of Wrath Stomp and Romp Events - Hillier - There will still be mud, there will be more pain, and you will never be the same. Can you handle it? Registration is now open for the second annual Grapes of Wrath Stomp and Romp Survival Race hosted at Hillier Creek Estates Winery. Competitors are encouraged to secure their spots at the starting line prior to May 31 in order to register at an early bird discounted rate. The Canadian Cancer Society, Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation and Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital Foundation are proud to partner once again to present The Grapes of Wrath, a harrowing five-kilometre run complete with daunting obstacles sure to test your ability to have fun in the face of adversity. This event will take place on Saturday, August 29. In 2014, the course, which included 14 gruelling obstacles designed by Canadian military volunteers, challenged the strength, agility and stamina of more than 420 participants as they ran under and through grapevines and splashed through the winery’s namesake creek to finish with a polar dip and grape stomp. This year, there are going to be even more daunting obstacles. A number of the new obstacles are being constructed by local firefighters and will be replicas of actual equipment they use in their gruelling training exercises in order to further challenge those who dare to push their personal and physical limits while raising money for cancer care in our communities. “This race provides a per-

fect blend of camaraderie and charitable spirit as challengers come together to participate in this fun and inspiring event. Participants collect pledges knowing that their donations help local cancer patients in our communities by funding much-needed medical equipment for our hospitals, research

“The tremendous sense of community spirit for the area makes this race a pleasure to run, even through mud, sweat and tears.� to improve treatments and save lives, and local services such as peer support and free rides to treatment for patients,� said Amy Doyle, manager of the local office of The Canadian Cancer Society. An early bird registration fee has been set at $75 per participant, valid until May 31, 2015. After that date, registration will increase to $100 per participant. The race is open to individuals or teams of up to 20 and new registrations are already coming in every day. “We were thrilled to play a major role in this inaugural event that raised thousands of dollars for cancer care in our community. Through a lot of hard work and determination, we were able to surpass everyone’s expectations for a first year event,� said Wendy Warner, executive director of the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation. “Competitors,

both rookies and veterans, have given their stamps of approval and are now anxiously waiting this year’s run. We listened and this year there will be even more obstacles through the vines at Hillier. Do you have the Grapes to do it?� Obstacle runs are about personal accomplishment and teamwork. “In 2014, with obstacles such as a 14-foot wall climb, monkey bars and a culvert crawl, we saw competitors rely on each other to get up, over and through various obstacles and make it to the finish line together,� noted Kemp Stewart, proprietor of Hillier Creek Estates Winery and chair of the 2015 Grapes of Wrath committee. “The tremendous sense of community spirit for the area makes this race a pleasure to run, even through mud, sweat and tears,� said Tina-Marie Furmidge, a participant in the 2014 Grapes of Wrath and one of the first to register for 2015. Competitors must be 18 years or older on race day to be eligible to run. Racers will receive a dry-fit T-shirt and upon completion of the race, dog tags. More information and registration links can be found by visiting our website, <www.cancer.ca/grapesofwrathPEC> or on Facebook <https://www. facebook.com/GrapesofWrathCountyRace>.

Grade 2 class celebrates book launch By Stephen Petrick

News - Belleville - The students in Andrea Bird’s class at Harry J. Clarke Public School are only in Grade 2 but they’re already accomplished authors. On Thursday, May 7, the students hosted a special celebration at the Belleville Public Library to celebrate the release of non-fiction books they had written.

Each student created a book about a certain country. They had to research their country and create pages fitting for a non-fiction book, such as a table of contents and a glossary. They then wrote invitations to their parents for the book launch, where it was recommended they dress “fancy.� “We could have done this in the classroom, but this way it’s special,�

said Bird. The assignment allowed the kids to complete a strand of the Grade 2 literature curriculum that focuses on the text features of non-fiction books. The students agreed that it was a fun experience but it required a lot of hard work. “It took three weeks,� said student Tanner Higgins, who wrote a book about France.

“Fun’s over� when paramedic shows up at parties for young people By John Campbell

News - Brighton - Keith Barrett is the last person you want to see show up at your place when he’s working. “Thanks to drugs and alcohol I get invited to a lot of parties,� says the Northumberland County paramedic. But “the fun’s over, there’s usually a lot of crying, and a lot of panic when I get there.� Why? Because he’s likely there to treat a victim of alcohol poisoning. “I hate going to parties; I’d rather be doing something else,� he told the graduating class at East Northumberland SecondStudents in Andrea Bird’s Grade 2 class at Harry J.

The paramedic spoke about the dangers of using to excess “the most abused drug in Canada right now.� In a survey of Grade 12 students across Canada, 83 per cent said they consumed alcohol and almost half of that number admitted to binge drinking–five or more drinks in one session, he said. “Binge drinking can cause alcohol poisoning,� which “takes away your gag reflex� and increases the risk of choking on your vomit. Barrett told the students they

They could be fine when they lie down but find themselves in trouble as the body continues to absorb the alcohol they have consumed, Barrett said. Brighton fire prevention officer Ed Lemain advised the students to take note of their surroundings when they go to parties at bars and homes, to determine possible escape routes in the event of an emergency.

Student success teacher Darlene Davison said it was the ninth year the school has taken steps to prepare students for prom night. “We’ve always been very proactive,â€? in advising students to “think out a plan firstâ€? for that special evening to make sure they stay safe, she said. “We’ve had some students with alcohol poisoning where they had to go to the hospital,â€? Davison said, but there’s been “nothing majorâ€? happened. It marked the first time participants included the Northumberland Drug Action Committee, with members of the Port Hope Police Service talking about distracted driving. “It’s become the number one killer of teens in North America,â€? said Constable Bob Pitcher. “In Canada alone this year there will be 250 teens, novice drivers, killed by reckless and distracted driving ‌ roughly the size of the class that we spoke to today.â€?

There has always been distracted drivers, drinking coffee, reading, or putting on makeup, “but now it’s even worse because of these cellphones,â€? he said. The event held May 7 centred around choosing a ride for the prom, a night when “kids are feeling footloose and happy ‌ and bad things can happen.â€? Such as car crashes. Also taking part for the first time was the Brighton Fire Department which gave a demonstration of how a person is extricated from a vehicle involved in a collision. “It’s always sad when this happens,â€? Fire Chief Lloyd Hutchinson said, because there are taxis, and parents willing to collect their children at parties. He told his three sons growing up never to get into a vehicle being driven by someone they didn’t know or “under the influence of some type of substance. No questions. I’ll just come and get you and I’ll bring you home. “If things go south, I have to go get you someplace else anyways.â€?


Expressions art show on display this month at Parrott Gallery By Stephen Petrick

Arts - Belleville - The art scene is alive and well in the Quinte area and it’s on display this month at the John M. Parrott Art Gallery at the Belleville Public Library. A show called Expressions is on display in the third-floor gallery. It’s the Quinte Arts Council’s biannual juried visual art show and it features the works of artists throughout the region. This year, 59 artists had work selected for the show, said Carol Feeney, the executive director of the Quinte Arts Council. Those artists reflect a range of skill sets, from abstract painters, to realism painters, photographers and even wood-workers. “You’ll see how diverse it is,” Feeney said to potential viewers. “Expressions is not a themed show, so it allows every artist to put their best foot forward. It’s exciting for the public too. We have an amazing amount of talented artists in this area.” At an opening reception on Thursday, May 7, three artists were presented awards. Two artists received the Juror’s Choice Award. Lori St. Clair’s piece entitled Creative String Theory received high prise from the judges. Juror Marc Gagnon chose this piece, saying that it Ray Dearborn stands with his federal style walnut side table that won him has a “strong, unique vision … The the Ontario Craft Council Design Award on the opening night of the Expres- subtle three-dimensional composition sions art show at the John M.

the overall effect.” The other Juror’s Choice Award went to Marta Mouka for her fibre art piece entitled Plants Anatomy. Juror John Climenhage said it has “strong composition, use of colour and fabric detailing. It is an evocative abstract that

is a pleasure to keep looking at.” The Ontario Craft Council Design Award was presented to Ray Dearborn for his federal style walnut side table, as it demonstrates, in the judge’s words, “superb masterful craftsmanship. The details are

exactingly executed and delicate. The proportions, colours, finish, wood selection are all flawless, a feast for the eyes.” The Expressions show is on display in the gallery until May 28 and during that time viewers can vote on a People’s Choice award winner.

MFRC Invisible Ribbon Gala sets several records to begin its second decade By Ross Lees

News - Trenton - The 11th annual Military Family Resource Centre (MFRC) Invisible Ribbon Gala started its second decade on a number of high notes. For the first time ever, they sold out the event, selling 310 tickets and surpassing their 300-ticket goal for the event and they did it two weeks in advance of the evening. The MFRC was able to hold their first online auction prior to the event, thanks to the generosity of their many donors and supporters, many of whom donated more than one gift, which allowed the MFRC to proceed with the online auction and involve even more members of the Quinte community in their fundraising endeavours. The community also came on board like never before this year and that support resulted in the gala raising $87,000 through the event, the most ever raised in its 11-year history. Tamara Kleinschmidt, executive direc-

tor of the MFRC, was far from speechless concerning the tremendous success of this year’s event. “We owe so much of the success of this event to our sponsors, supporters and our many volunteers,” she noted in her speech and after the event. “They just mean so much to our organization.” But there were other reasons for the success of this year’s event. Funds from last year’s event allowed the MFRC to hire communications and development co-ordinator Devon Taylor, who has helped raise the profile of the organization through their new website <www. TrentonMFRC.ca> and by helping to keep the community informed of their activities and services. “Devon has been a wonderful and important addition to our staff,” Mrs. Kleinschmidt said. Mrs. Kleinschmidt herself has taken the feedback from the community to heart and has been getting out into the community and speaking about the pro-

grams and services they supply and addressing needs within the community. She hopes to keep that momentum going as this year progresses. Apart from the many remarkable and valuable items auctioned off at the gala, this year including a package from 8 Wing Commander, Colonel David Lowthian, called Execu-Trek, that allows the highest bidder to join “VIP Recruits” for a day in the life of a CAF member with high intensity activity training including flying operations with one of 8 Wing’s operational squadrons, the gala featured two other high profile guests this year. Guest speaker was Captain (Retired) Jane Foster, one of the first two women fighter pilots in
the world since World War II, and Terry Crossen wrote and performed The Invisible Ribbon song for the first time at the gala. Foster knew of the trials and tribulations which face military married couples and, while she had promised herself she would never marry someone form the military, that changed when she met her pilot hus-

band Richard. And that’s when Captain (Retired) Foster began to learn about the value of an organization like the MFRC. She said her speech at the gala was an homage to the military family. “There is no vocation more honourable than that of a soldier, for a soldier is prepared to lay down his life in the fight for democracy and accord,” she said. But when that soldier’s job requires that he be deployed on a mission somewhere in the world, there are many times when the military family needs the support of an organization like the MFRC, she noted. “Staffed by caring and dedicated vol-

unteers, they’re eager and relentless, yet still they strive to provide ever more and better services,” she said. “When you need them, they are there. That’s why this gala is so important and worthwhile.” Foster said families are encouraged not to bother deployed spouses with problems from home as much as possible, and that’s where the MFRC comes to the rescue, often supplying needed services, a helping hand and an interested ear during trying times. She said it is important to spouses and families at home to know that the MFRC is only a phone call way because the spouse is invariably away for birthdays, graduations, anniversaries, Please see “Invisible” on page 20

News - Quinte West - Reminders have gone out to dog owners to purchase their dog tags before the June 30 deadline. Last year, 2,111 dog tags were sold in the city. Councillor Don Kuntze asked if they would get more revenue if they had outlets where people could buy the tags. Currently, only Trenton Pet Valu sells the tags as well as city hall. He asked if the vendors could charge a commission as they do for garbage bag tags. David Clazie said Pet Valu does not charge a commission, but uses it to encourage customers to come into the store. Kuntze felt the city should

also be going door to door selling the bag tags as they have done in the past. “There are way more dogs than have tags,“ Kuntze said. Mayor Jim Harrison said he would like to see a report from staff on the actual number of tags sold. The Corporate Finance Committee voted down Kuntze’s motion to sell dog tags door to door. Kuntze said they could provide a commission to any business that wants to participate, as they do with bag tags. Sally Freeman commented they don’t sell as many dog tags as bag tags, so it’s not worth it.

Dougherty, family separation and reunion services with the MFRC, and Mr. Dougherty accompanied Mr. Crossen on the guitar as they performed the song for the first time at the gala. “The Trenton MFRC thanks their donors, sponsors, guests, and the entire community for their continued support of CFB Trenton’s military families through

Caleb DenOuden, manager of financial services, said the success rate of going door to door compared to the hourly wages to be paid makes it not worth it. Keith Reid felt they should leave well enough alone. “I’m not in favour of starting anything,” he said. Freeman said they should put it on the website to sell more tags. Kuntze said there is no information to people about why they are collecting for dog tags in the first place. He said there are 2,000 dogs in Sidney Ward alone. His motion to have more vendors selling dog tags was lost.

Retired astronaut visits school named in his honour News - Trenton - Retired astronaut Marc Garneau was the guest of honour as “his” school, École secondaire publique Marc-Garneau, celebrated its 20th anniversary on Saturday, May 9. Garneau, now a Liberal Member of Parliament for Westmount-Ville-Marie, expressed his delight at having a school named after him while he was still alive to appreciate it. “Usually, people are dead!” he quipped. “To have a school named after you is a very big deal.” The school is part of the French Public School Board of Eastern Ontario, which offers public education in the French language. Garneau, speaking mostly in French, said he has visited CFB Trenton many times, but was especially pleased to be here to celebrate the anniversary of “my school.” He spoke briefly about being selected to become a Canadian astronaut in 1983 and the relationship between the Canadian Space Agency and the American program, NASA. “It was a privilege to represent Canada in space,” and to see the beauty of the Blue Planet, he said. During his visit, Garneau signed a board showcasing the school’s new logo, and talked with many of the students, parents and staff. Garneau made three trips into space, logging more than 677 hours in orbit between 1984 and 2000. He said he no longer misses being in space, but added, “I have very fond memories–and I relive

it in my dreams.” School principal Tanja Morin said the name for the school was suggested by a Grade 8 student, and the Canadian Space Agency approved the request in 1995. Although Garneau’s duties at the CSA prevented him from attending the opening, he was able to visit the school in 1997. She said he has remained a big inspiration to students. Denis Chartrand, chairman of the French Public School Board of Eastern Ontario, called Garneau “a hero for this generation” and said he was thrilled that Garneau could be in attendance for the school’s anniversary. “I’m honoured that he came,” Chartrand said, noting that Garneau continues to follow the school on Twitter and social media. Chartrand said the school began very small, and gradually added grades until it became a fully fledged high school. “People said that it wouldn’t last, but it not only lasted, but it grew,” he said proudly. “It’s way more than surviving– it’s thriving.” Other special guests at the celebration included Quinte West Mayor Jim Harrison, Ward 1 Councillor Duncan Armstrong and Quinte West Federal Liberal candidate Neil Ellis. Also representing the French Public School Board were Director of Education Édith Dumont, Superintendent Martin Bertrand, Stéphane Vachon, Jean-Marc Emery and board members Rachel LaForest Retired Astronaut Marc Garneau, MP for Westmount-Ville-Marie, addressed the crowd on Saturday, May 9, during the 20th anniversary of the Trenton school named in his honour.

Community unites to help quake-shattered Nepal By Bill Freeman

News - Norwood - It’s almost too hard to imagine what it would be like to have Norwood, Havelock, Hastings, Westwood and rural farms in between swept off the face of the map in an earth-shattering instant but that’s what a group of residents did this week during a fundraiser for victims of the Nepali earthquake that has devastated that peaceful mountain nation. “Although that concept is hard, people do realize there is

a real need there,” said Betty Bennett who co-organized the fundraising evening at Norwood United Church with her husband John. The Bennetts travelled to the Katmandu Valley in November and presented a slide show that included images of sites no longer to be seen because they were destroyed by the magnitude 7.8 earthquake. Images of earthquake damage counterbalanced the Bennetts’ photo montage. Caroline Owen, of Wave-

lengths Yoga Studio, read from the journal she kept while travelling in Nepal in 2002. She, Tony Tavares of Norwood Holistic Centre and John Bennett read accounts from people on the ground and Betty, a member of the Peterborough Storytellers, told two classic Nepali stories. Brenda McCarrell, a volunteer with the Peterborough Red Cross, also made a presentation. Traditional Nepalese treats were served afterward. “I was trying to find a way into this for us,” said Bennett, with a traditional Sutra (prayer flag) draped in the background. She asked people to imagine an event that wiped out all local communities in this area and left roads impassable and left the only airport so damaged transports of material could not be delivered. The magnitude 7.8 earthquake has affected the lives of over eight million people,

killing over 7,500, injuring another 14,000 and has displaced two million. As of this week, 37,500 people who lost their homes are spread across 58 camps. “It’s devastating to see places where we stood; buildings have just fallen and they fell so suddenly and so resoundingly and became a great pile of dust,” said Bennett, deeply affected by the tragedy. “It is such a beautiful place with dramatic architecture, dramatic scenery and such kind people.” Not only do local residents have to deal with the massive loss of life, says Bennett, but in a deeply religious country the loss of places of worship will be terrible. “You think of all the people who lost family and are in despair [but] they’ve also lost their places of worship and that has to be a significant thing for them. They have not only lost homes but they have no place to go and gather as a community because large parts of their community have been swept away.” Bennett was stunned by the large turnout to the fundraiser. “I had no idea how this was going to go.” Her husband had already made a donation but Bennett thought they should do something more so she organized a program and spread the word through the church, Facebook, her exercise class and yoga. “I can hardly believe it. It is an amazingly giving community,” she said. “Because this is a small town I think people can relate to people in those communities [and]

what it would be like to see your community wiped off the face of the map.” “They appreciate it,” added McCarrell. “They don’t know where it comes from but it comes from people like you who have

stepped up to the plate and made this happen. “It strikes you right in the heart when they know these people are giving what they can for people they don’t even know,” she said. “This is a wonderful event.”

Exploring Alberta’s stunning Bow Valley Parkway

By John M. Smith

Hiking in Johnston Canyon. The Castle Mountain Internment Camp Memorial.

tions to be found along this route. One of my stops was at a monument and historical plaque at the base of Castle Mountain, but this wasn’t a particularly nice remembrance. It’s a reminder of the Castle Internment Camp that was built there in 1915, to house immigrants during World War I, primarily of Austrian, German, Hungarian, and Ukrainian descent, and these park prisoners had to work there, so they even helped to build the parkway. I next stopped at my favourite hiking spot along the parkway, at Johnston Canyon. I found many others on this popular trail that took me along a creek and on steel catwalks with railings that have been attached to the canyon walls, past sev-

eral enticing photo ops of the limestone canyon walls. A short walk (1.1 kilometre) brought me to the canyon’s Lower Falls, which is the final destination for much of the crowd. However, if you continue along this trail, another 1.6-kilometre walk will bring you to the Upper Falls, and three kilometres further will bring you to the Ink Pots, where a series of mineral springs are bubbling out of the ground. Other interesting hikes along the Bow Valley Parkway would include the 7.4kilometre round trip to Castle Lookout, the 1.8-kilometre round trip to Silverton Falls, and the shorter (.8-kilometre) round trip to Pilot Pond. The Bow Valley Parkway has several informative in-

terpretive displays along the way, and I stopped at several of these, including Sawback, to learn about controlled fires, used to stimulate plant/tree growth, and Muleshoe Pond, to learn how the wetlands were formed; both are located near the east entrance. I then eventually exited this awesome roadway, near the city of Banff, and as I drove into Banff, I discovered that several elk were grazing right there in the hospital’s front yard. The Bow Valley Parkway is meant to be a more leisurely route than the Trans Canada Highway, so slow down, relax, and enjoy.

This elk stops for a bite to eat next to the Bow Valley Parkway.

This bighorn sheep decides to hit the road.

Lifestyles - Alberta’s Bow Valley Parkway is a 48-kilometre secondary highway that’s located within Banff National Park, and it parallels the Trans Canada Highway between Lake Louise and Banff. The stunning scenery, points of interest, and plentiful opportunities for wildlife viewing that I found along this route are not to be missed, so if you happen to be exploring this Lake Louise-Banff area, be sure to add this slight detour to your travel plans. Indeed, I’d recommend doing the entire loop tour between these two popular tourist destinations, using both the Trans Canada Highway in one direction and the Bow Valley Parkway in the other. I began my drive at Lake Louise, and here I left the Trans Canada Highway (#1) for the Bow Valley Parkway (#1A) and headed east for Banff. This particular area is teeming with wildlife, so it’s not uncommon to see such awesome animals as bear, moose, deer, bighorn sheep, and/or elk along the route, and sometimes right on the route. For example, the park has “bear guardians” that travel along the parkway and post signs to tell drivers that there’s a wildlife sighting just ahead. The driver will probably know this anyway, for there’ll be a great number of parked vehicles, as tourists try to get a glimpse. Therefore, “wildlife jams” are quite common, for motor vehicles will suddenly stop along the parkway for “an up-close-and-personal view,” and there’ll suddenly be a plethora of camera-toting tourists. I’ve even seen elk, bighorn sheep, and bear directly on the road itself. To help protect the animals, fences have been placed along the Trans Canada Highway, and “wildlife crossings” have been built for their safe transport from side to side. In addition, a section of the Bow Valley Parkway is closed to motor vehicle traffic overnight during the spring season, from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m., for as the park superintendent explained, “This is a period of time when this area is very important for wildlife and particularly for sensitive species, such as grizzly bears and wolves, and by putting in a travel restriction overnight it allows those species to utilize this area in an undisturbed way.” Some scientists were concerned that the highway fences built in the park might block animals from breeding with others of their species on the other side of the highway, but a study has now shown that the fences have greatly reduced wildlife collisions (by 80 per cent), and wildlife is actually crossing from side to side, via the overpasses and underpasses that were built, for breeding purposes. For example, one male black bear followed in this study fathered at least 11 offspring while crossing back and forth to mate with at least five different females. Apart from the plentiful wildlife itself, there are several other attrac-

Marmora Curling Club second annual ATV Poker Run a great success By Margriet Kitchen

News - Marmora - ATV riders enjoyed excellent weather, and some great trails for the second annual Marmora Curling Club Poker Run on Saturday. By 10 a.m., over 100 bikes had been signed up with 120 poker hands at $25 each. The route covered 50 kilometres of trails, roads, mud and water. Each participant was to collect four playing cards at three trail stops, and one back at the arena. The top hand was awarded $150, second place, $100, and third $50. In addition a prize table was loaded with many items donated by local businesses and ATV sponsors. Additional fundraising activities included a 50/50 draw, and a $5 bike wash. Barbecued lunch was included in the entry fee. All proceeds will go to the Curling Club. Registering riders were required to provide insurance, and

a review was made at the entry tables of safety procedures. Paul Speight, president of the Marmora Curling Club, said, “The amount of hours and the work of the volunteers blows me away as we work each year to supplement the membership fees with fundraising to keep the Curling Club viable, as well as support worthwhile causes. We have almost 100 members, and after membership fees, the balance of funds needed to keep operating the annual budget comes to about $30,000. Events like this really help.” After the event, Tim Black of the Marmora Curling Club reported, “We had 124 participants in the second annual ATV Poker Run; the winning hand went to Amy Widdows of Foxboro with (three kings and a pair) and her husband Kirk Widdows came in second

with a straight. Brian Thompson took third place with three kings. We want to thank all of the participants and hope to see everyone and more at next year’s event. We would like to thank all of our sponsors for their generous donations supporting the event which were Possibilities, Bonter Marine, Dan’s Speed and Custom, Bay Marine, Dunfords of Havelock, Moto Sports of Trenton, Belleville Sport and Lawn, West City Honda, Doug Hunter Ford, Broadbent Home Hardware, Wallace Power Sports, Leo’s Sport Shop, The Cutting Corner, Flowers by Sue, The Iron Grill, Stirling Heritage Wine.’ Tim also stated that the Marmora Curling Club Facebook page features some excellent photos of the many trail “obstacles” and rest stops enjoyed dur- A number of the riders registered for the second annual Marmora Curling Club ATV Poker Run were ing the Poker Run. getting ready to head out on the 50-kilometre trek on Saturday.

Blanket access to municipal roads preferred option for ATV use By John Campbell

News - Trent Hills - Trent Hills staff will work with proponents of a bylaw to allow ATVs on municipal roads to determine where access across county roads will be needed. Staff asked for clarification of council’s intent after being instructed to prepare the bylaw at council’s April 21 meeting. The options included blanket access on all municipal roads, blanket access with exceptions (roads deemed to be unsafe or outside business districts in urban centres) or access on specified roads only, “perhaps connecting existing or new trail heads,” Chris Tye, assistant manager of roads and urban services, said in a report to council May 5. “We really do believe if council wishes to permit this activity on our roads that it be blanket access,” CAO Mike Rutter told council, saying “it’s very difficult” for staff to develop “evaluation criteria” for “a list of roads that aren’t necessarily appropriate.”

B8 Section B - Thursday, May 14, 2015

Rutter said Northumberland County “would prefer” to grant access on specific roads rather than in “certain areas,” as Councillor Cathy Redden put in in a question to the CAO. “It is going to be limited in what they will grant,” Mayor Hector Macmillan said. “That’s something we would need to develop with those who are proposing [blanket access] in Trent Hills.” Councillor Rosemary Kelleher-MacLennan, who had asked for a list of road exceptions from unfettered access, said she had “lost a little bit of sleep” over the issue of whether to allow offterrain vehicles on municipal roads. “I do see the pros and cons,” she said, but “I do worry about the safety of all the residents.” Kelleher-MacLennan said she looked to organizations such as the Northumberland and District ATV Riders, which has pushed for a bylaw for several years, “to help set examples” as well as “police” the behaviour of ATV operators.

The Riders want to establish a route through Trent Hills that includes trails on private land and stretches of municipal roads where necessary in order to link to a trail system that runs through eastern Ontario. Cramahe Township, Havelock-Belmont-Methuen and Stirling-Rawdon are three adjoining municipalities that permit ATVs on municipal roads. Rutter said there’s really only one trail now in Trent Hills but it’s divided by the Trent River and would need to be extended through Campbellford to become connected. Macmillan noted “there was far more opposition” previously to a trail system in Trent Hills than “if it was wide open.” One problem with a specified route, Redden added, “is getting onto it … without breaking the law,” if ATV owners in Trent Hills have to travel on nondesignated municipal roads to reach it. Councillor Ken Tully agreed, saying the idea is to enable them to “get to the

trail the shortest possible way, and keep off road as much as possible.” Macmillan said ATV users “don’t want to be on county roads, they don’t even want to be on our roads, but it’s necessary to get from point A to point B.” Access on municipal roads will be for a one-year trial period and restricted to dawn to dusk and for a limited period; it was extended from the original proposal, to run from mid-April until the end of hunting season. Council’s decision to further commit to a bylaw being drafted was greeted with applause by the dozens of ATV users in the public gallery. Dwight Boyd, president of the Trent Hills Ratepayers Association, didn’t join in. “Obviously we’re disappointed,” he said in an interview, as he again demanded a public meeting be held before the bylaw is passed because it will have “such a profound effect on the municipality overall. “They’re ramming this through at

breakneck speed,” he charged. “The only thing we can do at this point is ask our people to contact their councillors and push [for a public meeting].” Council members “seem to be ignoring some of the problems” that will arise, he said, including the “increased risk of accidents” and greater exposure to lawsuits. “How do you justify allowing [ATVs] on our dangerous roads [in certain areas], knowing full well this risk is there?” Boyd asked. “They’re gambling with other people’s lives.” Boyd also repeated skepticism that opening up Trent Hills to ATVs will generate tourist dollars, as the mayor and proponents have argued. “That’s driven by hyperbole,” Boyd said. Boyd said membership in the ratepayers association fluctuates, depending on what issue is current, but “a good average” for the past four years is around 150 people.

Tweed and Company Theatre season opens with All You Need Is Love By Brett Mann

Entertainment - Actinolite - All You Need Is Love–a Musical Celebration was the season-opening production of Tweed and Company Theatre at the Marble Arts Centre recently. A chance coffee shop encounter with the cast and crew shone some light on the production and the theatre company itself. Tricia Black, Joel MacMeekin, Danielle Leger and James King comprise the core four-actor cast, with Katie Marlin handling lighting and general technical duties. Tim Porter directs the company, as he did with its predecessor, the IANA Theatre Company. Tricia, who studied music and theatre at Mount Danielle Leger (c) gives a high-energy warm-up performance for All You Alison University in New Brunswick Need Is Love, a production of Tweed and Company Theatre. She is joined by also serves as artistic producer (a role fellow cast members Tricia Black, Joel MacMeekin and James King (r). shared with Joel.) Joel, Tim and James all studied theatre at St. Lawrence College in Brockville between 2007 and 2011. Danielle studied music and theatre at the Canadian College of Performing Arts in Victoria, British Columbia. “It’s sort of a musical, more like a musical revue, almost like a song cycle,â€? Tricia explained. The production was very much a collaboration, she notes. “Myself and Tim sat down and kind of came up with the idea for the show Tim Porter (c) onstage at the Marble Arts Centre with the cast of All You Need Is Love, the season-opening production of Tweed and then he and I wrote a basic script and Company Theatre, a “musical revueâ€? on the theme of love.

The hour-and-a-half show as its name indicates is based on the theme of love. “It’s all your favourite love songs, intertwined with love letters, famous love stories,â€? says Tricia. James adds, “We tell some famous love stories in the forms of radio dramas, we do skits from Romeo and Juliette or Pyramus and Thisbe, old, NEW old ancient love stories.â€? He points ! out that Pyramus and Thisbe “is one of the oldest love stories. In Midsummer Night’s Dream they do a play [within a play] of Pyramus and Thisbe.â€? Director Tim Porter was enthusiastic following the Tweed performance. “The show was almost sold out. It was one of our best shows yet ‌ we did re-brand [from the IANA Theatre Company] last fall and this was our first performance as Tweed and Company Theatre.â€? He is also excited to be participating in the Toronto Fringe Festival in July, his first entry into the annual event. Mr. Porter who lives in Toronto and says, “I’m an actor first and foremost,â€? stresses the original and collaborative nature of the group’s work as shown in I’ll Fly Away, a “new Canadian musicalâ€? written by Tricia Black opening in Tweed next October. He notes that Emily Mewett, properties and stage .COM manager who was not at this production is also a key part of the core team.

News - Warkworth - A long-time Warkworth resident’s remarkable contributions to The Bridge Hospice have received provincial honours from Hospice Palliative Care Ontario. Brenda Partridge was inducted to the prestigious June Callwood Circle of Outstanding Volunteers in April stated a press release from The Bridge Hospice. The award recognizes exceptional individuals who, like the late June Callwood, demonstrated extraordinary voluntarism and passion in hospice care. According to Dr. Bob Henderson, board chair, her efforts are immeasurable and she is one-of-a-kind. “Since the envisioning of our residential hospice, she has donated thousands of hours to maintaining our accounts, managing the business office, fundraising, and serving on committees. Her many contributions have been

pivotal to the hospice’s The Bridge Hospice success,” he stated. operation depends on many generous, talented volunteers. Even among this dedicated group, Dr. Henderson noted that Partridge’s passion for the hospice vision “continues to inspire others.” For Brenda, the award is both personally meaningful and a tribute to the tremendous collective efforts that have made residential hospice a real option for people in Northumberland County and region, said the release. “Because June Callwood has been a lifelong inspiration to my role as a volunteer in my community, I am deeply honoured. I accepted this special award on behalf of all of the volunteers of The Bridge Hospice who are making a difference in residential hospice care,” she stated. The Bridge Hospice in Warkworth provides compassionate endof-life care at no cost to residents or their families. For more about the Hospice go to <http://www. thebridgehospice. com>.


The Good Earth: Lifestyles - Gentle Reader, by now you’ve come across countless articles, blogs and other posts about the return of the gardening season; about all of the new wonderful must-have introductions; the descriptions of the botanical wonderlands created by the gardening column author, etc. etc. In fact, this green-ink-stained writer was guilty of such an article last year, entitled “The Clost Arboretum.” I did such a good job with my words that a local organisation asked me to be part of their garden tour. I had to decline. It is true that all of those trees do grow on our bit of this good earth and they are quite nice to look at. There were two reasons for my declining. The first is that they are quite young and not of the best form. I tend to bring home plants that have been returned by customers because they weren’t thriving. I enjoy the challenge of reviving them but it does take quite a while. However, the primary reason for

Not in my backyard passing on the request, which I was tickled to receive, is that the other bits of the estate just aren’t up to “tour” standards. When I retire, perhaps, there will be time to give our grounds the attention they are lacking. Until then, I shall be more circumspect when talking about our gardens. Given all of that, I thought it might be refreshing for you to read something a wee bit different, not what you would expect to find in such a space as this. Today’s title does not refer to the nimby mentality; rather, it speaks to the plants that will not grow in my backyard, for example, petunias. I like them but they don’t like me. Burpee’s sells Black Cat, which they advertise as the world’s only black petunia. Ball’s offering is called Black Magic, Thompson & Morgan sells the doubleflowered Black Night, the world’s only doubled flowering black petunia. I’m not sure if these folks live in different worlds,

I suspect only the advertising boffins have a skewed version of reality, but I stopped searching for all of the variations. I see them at the garden centre and sigh: they’re gorgeous but if they came home with me they would die. Even if they are in a hanging basket with other plants, they would die. I don’t get it. (A pun for Ellyn.) Alyssum is another little plant that fares poorly on our estate. Portulaca barely gets by, torenia withers away, and common impatiens (long before mildew became an issue) just sits there sulking. It won’t die but neither will it grow. You would think that I should be able to make these annual mainstays, these idiotproof offerings that garner eleventy-eleven gazillion dollars a year for their patent holders, live up to their fullest potential simply because of my profession. Alas, Gentle Reader, two green thumbs and eight brown fingers.

To be fair to me and to reassure you, especially those who don’t know me, there are some annuals with which I manage to succeed: cosmos, nasturtium, verbena, scaveola, snapdragons, balsam impatiens and euphorbia. This year, in several dry areas, I have gone all out with various sedum and spurges. I’ve done a mix and match thing using the red tinged Dragon’s Blood, the vibrant yellow Angelina, the changeable (orange, green, red) Coral Carpet, an all green, Green Ice and an all red, Red Carpet. A few years ago, in those areas subsequently termed “The Wastelands,” I tried Ice Flowers and yucca. As the soil dried up and blew away, reminiscent of the great Dust Bowl of the 1930s, the desiccated remains of said plants rode those winds to the far, far better compost resthome in the sky. I have also determined that the best way for me to grow nice grass is to plant a nice

tree. It makes a difference. On a slightly different note: for over five years I had been using corn gluten on our swards. One of the weeds that it seemed to control very well was plantain. Last year, I did not use the corn because I came across some buckshee fertiliser at the nursery. This year, our lawns are once again producing a serious crop of plantain. The other weed that has taken a hold is Yellow Avens. For the curious, dandelions are sunny happy visitors, not a weed; clover is a welcome mat of green, not a weed and Canada thistle is an early warning burglar alarm, not a weed. All of them grow quite happily in my backyard. Petunias do not.

Midnight Madness fishing returns to Hastings By Bill Freeman

Sports - Hastings - Anglers will line up along the bridge in Hastings Friday night waiting for the midnight whistle to sound as the seventh annual Midnight Madness fishing frenzy kicks off. Hastings has the only bridge in Ontario that is part of a conservation area that allows fishing from May until November and it

draws large summer crowds particularly on the eve of the seasonal launch. Midnight Madness is organized and hosted by the Hastings Historical Society and officials are hoping for a record-breaking turnout. For the third year in a row the HHS will promote the event using special banners that were purchased with funds received through the village’s 2012 World Fishing

Network Ultimate Fishing Town Canada grand championship prize. Hastings picked up $25,000 which was disbursed to four worthy projects through the Hastings Environmental Group. The banner project received $1,000. Community support for Midnight Madness is always strong with lots of raffle prizes given away during the evening; the Historical Society is grateful

to the Water Lily and the Ultimate Bait Shop which are selling tickets to the event: $2 each or three for $5. Banjo’s Restaurant is also providing entertainment for the occasion. People are encouraged to start gathering on the bridge for the “first night of fishing” party at 11 p.m. Along with the draw prizes there are a number of awards for first fish caught

including the first fish to be caught after midnight; the first fish to be caught by a woman after midnight; the first child under 14 to catch a fish after midnight. All fish must be between 14 and 19.5 inches long; all the fish are returned to the water after being measured and weighed. For more information call Skye Morrison at 705696-1382.
