By Katherine Grant For NewsNow The new “temple” being constructed on the grounds of the heritage tree stand on Grand Avenue is beginning to take shape. While it is not nearly as large and imposing as the original Methodist temple, it will serve its own role in the history of Grimsby Beach. The temple will serve, not as a place of worship as did the original built in 1888, but as an in-

formation kiosk. The project has been several years in the making, says Sharon Porter, vicepresident of the Grimsby Heritage Advisory Committee. It was Porter and her friend and coworker Andrea Eby, who came up with the concept. The plan includes a community garden planted with native species and trails in the heritage tree stand located behind Grand Avenue Hall. See TEMPLE, Page 3

Fundraiser set for paralyzed Grimsby woman Everything can change in the blink of an eye. This past July 20, everything changed for Grimsby’s Vallary Halladay when the 23-year-old became paralyzed after breaking her neck in a swimming pool accident in Niagara Falls. Vallary is now quadriplegic and was recently moved out of intensive care at Hamilton General Hospital into a step-down unit. “They are waiting to see

ture of her injuries, how her breathing is, there is concern her mom says her spirits are pretty about her lungs,” said her mom good “although Kathy Halladay, she has her moments.” from her daughter’s bedside. “She’s feisty,” said Kathy.

There are some great prizes including a spa package, a vacation package and much more. “We are just looking for people to come out and support her,” said Kathy.

TEMPLE

A postcard depicts the original Methodist temple in Grimsby Beach in 1888 in what is now Auditorium Circle.

From Page 1 It was the loss of a 350-year-old oak tree as well as a number of other centuries-old trees in the heritage-designated tree lot during a 2010 storm that was the catalyst for the project, said Porter. “The storm just demolished the tree stand,” she added. Although Porter has been a member of the Heritage Advisory Committee for several years, she and Eby came up with the concept on their own. They then presented the idea to the advisory committee and Town of Grimsby’s Recreation Services committee. The proposal included a learning garden and trail as well as the information kiosk. The temple-shaped building is being constructed from lumber

that came from the trees lost during the 2010 storm. One fallen tree remains part of the landscape, however. “We asked that the tree remain there,” said Porter. It will serve as a learning component, to teach about the life cycle of trees. Grimsby business, Original Greenscapes was tasked with taking the lumber from the old trees and recreating a smaller version of the temple. The Grimsby Museum was consulted and photos examined. The original structure, a project

undertaken by Noah Phelps more than 125 years ago, stood 30 meters high and could seat 3,000. In the 1920s, the temple building was demolished. It was in poor shape by then as it had had a leaky roof for many years, according to reports of the day. The mini temple will be the same onion-like shape although some licence has been taken with the design to rework it as a kiosk, and it will stand about 23 feet in height when it is complete, said Rob West, of Greenscapes.

The $50,000 cocktail party “When the working day is done. Girls they want to have fun. Oh girls just want to have fun.” Cindi Lauper would be proud of party girls 25-year-old Lilia Ratmanski from Whitby, Ontario and 26-yearold Milana Muzikante from Vaughan. Man, did those girls want to have fun or what?!? Last week these two wild and crazy chicks boarded a Sunwing charter fight in Toronto bound for Cuba and mistook the “Vacant” sign on the washroom door for “Vacation!” Sometime after takeoff, with the click of a dead bolt, Lilia and Milana turned a rear section washroom into a small but hoppin’ little nightclub. Oh yeah, the all-girl spring break party was on! Fun, fun, fun long before they would reach the Cuban sun meant drinking most of their duty-free alcohol in the plane’s bathroom, straight from the bottle. Imagine a meeting of the Mile

WILLIAM THOMAS High Club sponsored by Smirnoff. These two friends and nurses may have gotten away with the cocktail party in the can except the cigarette they were smoking set off the smoke detectors drawing the attention of both passengers and flight crew. Good lord, drinkin’ and smokin’ on a charter airplane! Who do these two think they are, Justin Bieber and his Dad?!? Athough the party was pretty much over once the two tipsy travellers were escorted back to their seats, the inflight entertainment was just about to begin. Nobody is saying what triggered the next event – maybe

Party From Page 4 they had their sights set on the same cute flight attendant or one of them forgot to bring snacks and party favours into the toilet. In front of several hundred passengers, Lilia and Milana got into a hair-pulling, eye-gouging brawl. At some point the Sunwing crew intervened and broke up this screaming, cursing catfight much to the dismay of a few guys in the back who normally have to pay a cover charge to watch this kind of girl-on-girl roughhousing. Consequently the Sunwing pilot, Captain Peter Partypooper alerted South Carolina air traffic control who passed the

complaint on to DEN (Domestic Event Network) who in turn alerted NORAD (the Northern American Aerospace Command) who scrambled two CF-18 fighter jets out of Quebec at a cost of $16,750 per hour to accompany the charter plane back to Pearson Airport in Toronto. So what started as vodka shooters in a cramped toilet quickly became a military operation involving two nations with jet fighters running interference between the Sunwing plane and tall buildings. Then one of the women made a threat against the airline. Besides mischief and uttering threats, these two nurses face charges of endangering the safety of an aircraft which carries a maximum sentence of

life in prison. Yeah, that’ll sober you up in a hurry. Both party girls were released on $5,000 bail which I’m guessing was posted by Charlie Sheen. The total cost of the nurses’ night out could be as high as $50,000 and a spokesperson for Sunwing has already said they will be going after the culprits for damages. This could have been worse. Unlike American passenger planes that since 9/11 carry armed sky marshals on board ready to end such disturbances with head shots and death certificates, Canada does not. Had they flown out of Buffalo instead of Toronto, Drunk and Drunker may have found themselves coming home in their own luggage.

A HAND ALONG THE WAY through grief A Community Bereavement Support Program

A HAND ALONG THE WAY is a self help/mutual aid Bereavement Support Program designed to help you acknowledge and eventually come to terms with your grief. At a time when you might be questioning your own sanity, it is helpful to know that what you are and will be experiencing is normal. During eight evening sessions, we will explore relevant topics that affect your grief. There will be time for questions and an opportunity to talk about your grief with others who have some understanding of your pain and confusion. We invite all those who are presently dealing with the death of a loved one, recent or otherwise, to meet people in an informal setting, who try not to offer advice, but are willing to share similar experiences and feelings. The Fall program will commence Thursday, Sept. 18th Shalom Manor – Conference Room, 12 Bartlett Avenue, Grimsby For more information please call Rose Cottage Visiting Volunteers 905-650-8756 Between 9 a.m. – 8 p.m. daily

Ballots for the bike draws have been sent out to all the schools in Grimsby, Lincoln and West Lincoln and also to the home-schooling associations to distribute to students. All they need to do to enter the draw and gain free admittance to the fair is to come to the gate with a paid-admission adult and hand in their ballot. “The bike draws are a tradition the fair board has done for a number of years,” said Capell. If the bike doesn’t quite fit the rider, often a gift recipt is provided and the bike can be exchanged.

Grimsby Festival of Art shines this weekend

Mike Corcoran of Apple Lane Wood Craft is among this year’s artists.

The 48th edition of the Grimsby Festival of Art is set for this weekend at Blessed Trinity Secondary School on Livingston Avenue. For the first time, the festival will take place over two days, Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 6-7 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. New Grimsby resident Mike Corcoran is among those who will be exhibiting and selling his wares. Corcoran creates wood-turned bowls and vases.

With 25 years behind him, he has perfected his art. Working with a variety of woods, he brings out the inner beauty hidden in each object. His bowls are functional but serve as well as display pieces. He made furniture and toys before discovering woodturning. “I love working with wood,” he said. Beneficiaries of the event are Community Living of Grimsby, Lincoln and West Lincoln, Grimsby

Rotary and also this year, Grimsby Minor Hockey. Musical entertainment will be provided and the Lincoln Leapers will be doing their very popular shows. There will also be tables and food trucks set up on the east side of the high school. The cost of admission has increased to $7 (those under 16 are admitted free) but there is a $2 off coupon at: grimsby-festival-arts. com.

Reader: Don’t cut through woodlot to extend road Dear Editor, I have many concerns regarding the cutting of the woodlot and the extension of Livingston Avenue to Oakes Road. The continuation of Livingston will not change the flow of traffic along the avenue to Casablanca to the QEW. If anything it will make it more difficult to access the QEW from Oakes Road as there is no direct ramp on either the north or south side of the QEW from this road. Too much of our fruit and food land, our view of Lake Ontario and most importantly the beauty of our “old” Grimsby have-

Letter disappeared. Perhaps council and the region should improve Hwy 8, the wine route which is such a unique ride in any season. Finally, I strongly believe that this extension will only benefit the developer who bought the land west of Hunter Road and east of the railroad track. The extension will be a ready made route to the QEW for more subdivisions on the tract of land. More destruction to our environment! Marthe Hunneault

See what the fuss is about While this Saturday is the official open house for Ja Irish’s Hunter Road woodlot, which may be severed if a Niagara Region proposal to put through an extension to Livingston Avenue, many have already gone through property. Since NewsNow broke the story, Irish tells us this week he has had a steady flow of visitors from all over and has had “Save The Woodlot” signs requested from as far away as Jordan. From 10 a.m.-2 p.m. this Saturday, Sept. 6, local residents can go see what the fuss is about. It is a pristine, nearly untouched property stewarded by the Irish family for generations. Impacting this property is a serious enough issue on its own and the timing of it coming up before a municipal election could be a blessing, but it is hoped it does not simply become an easy motherhood issue on which to bandwagon jump. Residents and potential election candidates – for or against the extension – make informed decisions here. Don’t assume. M.W.

Bring on the new “grubs” So much to say and so little space... Well let’s start with something with some matters of social correctness. Don’t you find it odd that as society changes and vocabulary changes, some things are ok and others become blasphemous to others. There is no better example than gay. Now, I was not around for the days when gay was a darn good thing to be –– happy, joyous and such. Not that it isn’t good a thing to be today – not that there is anything wrong with that (right, Seinfeld?) – just a wholly different meaning. In my day, high school in particular, I went to Central Huron Secondary School, home of the Redmen. This moniker was something we viewed with pride. Similar to the Washington Redskins, we had an Indian logo. To us the meaning had changed, just as vocabulary does change. Redmen was something good, strong, powerful, respectful, honourable and tenacious. With Native Indian populations all along the Lake Huron lakeshore, we never heard boo about our school handle being demeaning or offensive. That would be because it wasn’t. Regardless, school board administrators not wanting to be on anyone’s radar for any reason, the moniker was changed to the Phoenix...there’s an attention grabber. Now us Redmen, we must have been a heinous lot because as part of our Grade 9 initiation program

MIKE WILLISCRAFT a Slave Day was held each September. Yep, Slave Day. Not going to defend that one for a second. Unlike the Redmen or Redskins, there was nothing positive or honourable about slavery. Horrific through and through. That said, it was still a lot of fun. Every Grade 8 kid who was going to move on to CHSS was nervous about it,which was the point. Grade 9 kids were brought up on stage and bought for the school day by seniors who could have the “grubs” (as the newbies were dubbed) carry their books to class, get their lunch, and things like that. All the funds raised went to school projects. Having two siblings precede me in high school, one sporty and one academic, I was of interest to a wide cross-section seniors and ended up bringing in the most dough. It was something in the range of $25, which was big money for a high school kid in 1977. This whole conversation came up on the weekend with my little guy, well, not so little anymore, going into Grade 9. I told him

how easy he was getting it since schools have sanitized initiation to little more than a tour around the facilities these days. It’s too bad. No, we don’t need to bring back the slavery connotation or anything that could legitimize bullying, but there should be a middle ground. Times are going to change whether I like it or not. My kids laugh at me when I proclaim my views on the insane level with which teens live on their e-devices. Heck, I’m bad enough myself and I have no use for the contraptions. I bet everyone out there could think of 10 words which have had a double meaning in their lifetime. How about: rad; dog(g); dope; gnarley (narley); busted; tight; sick; bounce; bomb; and kicks. How’s that? Do you know what these words mean today? ****** After nearly five decades, the Grimsby Festival of Art is heading for cover. The last couple of years have not gotten the best which Mother Nature has to offer. That is for certain. So, the Rotary Club of Grimsby has sought shelter for the venerable event in the form of Blessed Trinity Catholic Secondary School. The two-day juried show runs Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Admission is $7, kids 16 and under are free of charge. All proceeds support Rotary and Community Living programs, so check out the show and check out the new digs.

The Greatest Gospel Truth! When Jesus died on the Cross, He redeemed the whole human race. He paid the entire sin debt of the world – ONCE, FOR ALL TIME! How did Jesus do this? As a perfect sacrifice, the Bible says He took the sin of the world upon Himself. In fact, He actually BECAME sin FOR US! The Bible says that sin was “nailed to the Cross”. Jesus was resurrected, but sin was not. SIN DIED ON THE CROSS!

Why do Churches work tirelessly to keep “dead sin” alive in our minds?

Like pumping helium into an “empty sin balloon”, pastors, teachers and leaders raise worry, guilt, fear, shame, remorse, judgment and even death, over our heads. Regrettably, by propping up “dead sin” the leaders gain obedience, control and money from members.

Sin died on the Cross in Jesus – ONCE, FOR ALL TIME!
