By Dave Scott Life kinda’ has a way of getting back to the place it started. Sometimes our plans seem to stray for a bit before they get back on course. Local artist, Vic Gibbons, thought way back in 1981 he would like to have a studio at his home‌ little did he know it would take this long. Last fall, Vic told me he was closing The Olde Town Gallery in Simcoe‌ he had decided to move his studio to his home. It was time for a change and it would give Vic an opportunity to enjoy his home a little more.
Last time I visited Vic he was just finishing up at the store. He looked tired and I could tell the move was taking a toll on him. Last week I drove out to Vic’s home. It is nestled out on the 8th Concession, West of Simcoe. Pulling in his lane, it is easy to see how Vic gets inspired to paint‌ the setting is perfect and when you walk in the studio you are in the right frame of mind to enjoy browsing through Vic’s many works. Visiting Vic at his new studio‌ he seemed to have that vigour back‌ and yet he seemed very relaxed‌ we sat and chatted about the change and it was not long before a couple of customers
3
came in and Vic was off helping them with their needs. It was great to see Vic smiling as he chatted with the customers explaining some of his works. I asked how business was, Vic said it had been steady; folks that stop by are buying pieces‌ like I said earlier when you pull into the lane‌ you instantly get a better understanding of the man and his work‌ it all comes together‌ you know it might have taken a while for Vic to make it home‌ but this is the right fit‌ the smile on Vic’s face says it all. Give Vic a call and head out for a visit‌ 519-428-1329.

oberto, age 32, single with no dependants, is buying his first house. The bank offers him mortgage insurance to cover his mortgage balance in the event of his death, which at first Roberto declines. After all, he doesn’t David Pass, have any dependants Financial Advisor if anything happens to him. He reconsiders and decides he doesn’t want to burden his family with selling the house to pay off the mortgage. So, Roberto decides to purchase mortgage insurance. Over the next few years, Roberto gets married, finances a new car and contributes to his Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP). After their two children arrive, Roberto and Gabriela put money away to save for their education. As the children, grow they decide to move their family into a bigger house. They fall in love with a house in a neighbourhood that is perfect for raising children, and need to refinance the original mortgage. Once again, the bank offers them mortgage insurance to cover the new mortgage. But this time, with their additional debt and dependants, they wonder if mortgage insurance is really the right choice. As part of their research, Roberto and Gabriela consult their advisor. They are a little confused when he suggests a personally owned term insurance policy is a better solution. After all, Roberto already has adequate life insurance,

rotect More T han Just Your Mortgage or so he thought. Their advisor explains that although Roberto has insurance coverage, they should protect their family from the additional debt load they would assume. Personally owned term insurance not only protects their family, but also offers some additional benefits. Let’s examine the differences between mortgage and term insurance. Mortgage insurance is offered by most banks and lending institutions. They’ll offer it to you when you get a mortgage or refinance your existing one. It’s an insurance policy that pays the balance of your mortgage to the lending institution if you, the person listed on the mortgage, pass away. Mortgage insurance provides a life insurance amount equal to your remaining debt. As your mortgage decreases, so does the payout you receive. The cost of the insurance is based on the mortgage amount and your age at the onset of the mortgage, and the payments remain constant through the life of the policy. Essentially, you’re paying the same monthly premiums for a reducing amount of coverage as you pay down your mortgage. And mortgage insurance is great for the lender because it is listed as the beneficiary of your policy. Term life insurance provides protection for a specified period of time. A death benefit is paid to your beneficiary if you die while the policy is still in force. When you purchase a term life policy, you are covered for the full amount of your mortgage, not just the outstanding balance, for the life of the policy. That means you have a constant level of coverage for the whole term. It’s

by presenting them with the Carolinian Canada Conservation Awards. “Although many people could receive these awards, today’s award winners are very deserving recipients,” said Caroline Biribauer, a CCC director. Among the winners were Dave Reid, Harry Barrett and the Long Point Causeway Improvement Project. CCC Director Scott Peck presented the award to Dave Reid and said, “Dave is a committed, forwardthinking conservation leader in Norfolk County. He has worked for the Ministry of Natural Resources for 36 years and has been involved
in dozens of projects that have contributed to the Carolinian Canada landscape ranging from the reintroduction of the wild turkey in 1984 to, most recently, the successful Norfolk ALUS Pilot Project. He manages a 50-acre Carolinian Canada woodlot. Through years of dedication and strong vision, Dave has involved countless farm families across Norfolk in undertaking beneficial stewardship projects from wetland drain restoration projects to habitat creation projects. As you drive around Norfolk County you can see many sites that Dave has been involved in.”
Dave Reid received a conservation award at the Carolinian Canada Coalition annual general meeting last week. The Long Point Causeway Improvement Project received an honourable mention in the group category. Begun in 2006, the project is a community-based effort to revitalize the 3.5 kilometre-long causeway between the mainland and the Long Point peninsula. Rick Levick, who accepted the award on behalf of the project, said, “In three years we have reduced reptile road kill by more than 50 per cent on the causeway and species-at-risk reptile road mortality is down by more than 60 per cent.” CCC Board member Brian Craig introduced Lifetime Achievement

award winner Harry Barrett by saying it was impossible to sum up Harry’s contributions in just a few paragraphs. “Harry has touched my life by his writing and by his involvement in local organizations. He is past Founding President of both the Norfolk Field Naturalists and the Dover Mills Heritage Association. He was the founding chairman of the Long Point Foundation for Conservation and served as a director of the Federation of Ontario Naturalists. In 1986 he was appointed to the Ontario Heritage Foundation where he chaired the Niagara Escarpment Committee and served on the Carolinian Canada Committee and the Natural Heritage Committee.” In accepting his award, Harry Barrett commended the Carolinian Canada Coalition for all they do in this area. “My first contact with CCC was in 1986 when I was appointed to the Ontario Heritage Foundation. At the time we were given $25 million to enhance the Niagara escarpment and the Bruce Trail and I think we spent it wisely as
participate in activities such as swimming, softball, bowling and floor hockey to name a few. The dinner was served… which was very delicious. The volunteers were honoured and the athletes chanted Shirley Shaw’s name when it was her turn to go up. Next it was time to congratulate the athletes
the Bruce Trail is thriving today. We also developed a stewardship program that brought a lot of people in to protect Carolinian property for all time. I’ve met a lot of people committed to preserving Carolinian nature in this area. It’s been a great experience for a simple farm boy from Woodhouse Township.” Other recipients of the awards included Deanna Lindblad, Port Colborne (Individual), Robert Bateman High School, Burlington (Youth), Waynco, Cambridge (Group), Bert Miller Nature Club, Fort Erie (Group), and George Francis, Waterloo (Lifetime Achievement).

Simcoe Special Olympics Athletes on their year’s work. Every single athlete was honoured and each time an athlete went up all the other participants would cheer them on. It is great to witness the enthusiasm for each other… the camaraderie of this tight knit group is that of a true team. Near the end of the evening the Stan & Doris Sheil Spirit Award was handed out to one female and male athlete… and the winners
were Trevor Holden and Anne Pritchard. After all the awards were completed, the DJ cranked up the tunes and the dance floor exploded with athletes kicking up a storm. I’ve got to say that these folks sure know how to throw a banquet… it was by far the most moving one I had been to in a long time… congrats to all the athletes, volunteers and coaches. Great job!

haron and the Strawberries
By Dave Scott Did you know that at the Judd farm (Meadow Lynn Farms) on Decou Road, they grow twelve different types of Strawberries and did you know that in a few short weeks the Strawberry patch will be ready for you to stop by and start picking? I stopped by the farm and caught up with Sharon Judd who was busy making trails through the path for folks to walk on. Sharon explained that the Judd family has been growing Strawberries as far back as the 1940’s and Sharon and her husband have carried on the tradition since 1984. This year five and a half acres are planted which is a whopping 42,000 plants… and so far the crop is looking fantastic. The plants are in full bud and for every flower a strawberry will grow. It is estimated that around two million berries could be picked this year.
Sharon Judd of Meadow Lynn Farms The planting took place May 22, 23, 24, and 25 and Sharon, like a mother hen, has been minding her Strawberries ever since A couple of our local restaurants use the Meadow Lynn Farms’ berries, The Blue Elephant and The Belworth House… so when you order that delicious Strawberry treat… you can bet they are from our local fields. Last year was a tough year for strawberries with a shortened season… but this year looks fabulous. Make sure you follow Sharon on facebook or twitter so that you can be one of the first to stop by and pick your strawberries (Meadow Lynn farms). I cannot begin to appreciate the dedication Sharon has towards her Strawberries. She works day and night to ensure the best product possible… years of experience and her expertise all come into play… making sure the strawberries won’t be picked until the absolute best time.
It won’t be long now so… load up the car with the kids, call grandma and grandpa and get those berries picked… make a day of it out in the sun… enjoying the fresh air… and the taste of some local fresh strawberries. Well it was time to leave the farm, Sharon was busy heading off to gather some freezees for the staff who were busy weeding around the strawberries… and as I drove away all I could think about was stopping back out in a week or so and enjoying some Strawberries.

in excess of $16 million has been raised. Since the Law Enforcement Torch Run began its partnership with Special Olympics Ontario, the number of registered athletes has grown from under 4,000 to greater than 17,000 athletes. Currently we have 131 athletes, 30 coaches and 7 general volunteers registered with Simcoe Special Olympics. Current sports our athletes participate in are Five and ten Pin Bowling witnessing their trials and tribulations, all of which involve men. SHOUT! is a magazine in which Oliver Holmes writes an advice column. The main characters write into Mr. Holmes, asking advice on relationships and life direction. The director of this musical was Jim Carroll, who was also assisted by several student volunteers. The music was fantastic, which was to be expected considering Mark Rapley was the bandleader.

The second cast consisted of: Brooke Mesley, Hayley Baskerville, Cortney Cunningham, Emma Carroll, and Katie Borgehse. The narrator for both casts was Jacob Frieser. The acting was very comical, and these young ladies fit in perfectly with their character’s persona. I expect to see this young talent involved in other plays around the community in years to come.

Working together, we can personalize your TFSA with investments that are tailored to meet these needs. *In Quebec, our financial advisors are known as investment advisors.
Call or visit today to personalize your TFSA.

The EOS is here! Let the Summer Fun B egin!! Form meets function meets totally irrational desire.
The 2012 Eos is more than a convertible. It’s a sophisticated, four-season vehicle that’s airtight and ultra-quiet
at any speed. Not to mention it’s the only hardtop with a built-in panoramic sunroof. So whether it’s rain or shine, you get the perfect climate at the touch of a button. Now that’s hard to top.
