Creemore welcomes the classics

by Trina Berlo Creemore’s annual “un-car show”, organized by Corey Finkelstein for 10 years, is back this year with a new name and a new date.

Creemore Valley Classics, coming up this Saturday, has branched off from Copper Kettle Festival because it was popular enough to be a standalone event.

It’s the un-car show because it’s different from the others. The trophies are unique and locally handcrafted and there is something for everyone, even people who don’t like to talk about cars.

Finkelstein is expecting about 600 classic vehicles to line the main street, from George to Wellington and over to the Legion. Cars will also be on display on Caroline St. East, between Mill and Library and a portion of Francis

St. East.

The village makes an ideal backdrop for the car show and he decided on the date to add one more large event to showcase the village in July.

“It’s really not about the car show, it’s all about the town. The only reason I do the show is to support the town, to showcase the shops, the storeowners and the restaurants,” said Finkelstein.

“It brings a huge crowd.”

He said an average of two people come with every car, plus the spectators, which can add up to 3,000 to 5,000 or more visitors for the show.

For Finkelstein, it’s more about the stories behind the cars than the cars themselves.

To celebrate Canada 150, he put out a call for VIP registrants. People were asked to share a photo and a story about

Grain bin safety a priority for Collwest

by Trina Berlo Collwest Grain is making an effort to raise awareness about farm safety, specifically with regards to grain storage and farm machinery safety.

Owner John Taylor held a fullday seminar geared to farmers, grain industry personnel and first responders July 6, when, with Dekalb, they donated a cofferdam to the Clearview Fire Department.

A cofferdam is not a common piece of rescue equipment but it can be an important one for fire departments that serve an agricultural community, said Taylor.

He said he attended a similar meeting a couple of years ago.

“I thought it was well done and I decided I wanted to put one on in this area. There are more and more grain bins going up, more grain storage in the area and for residents to be aware of the risks and hazards involved with storing grain and how to properly store and keep grain in condition,” said Taylor.

“There are a lot of accidents and deaths on farms every year and I just want to make sure to bring safety to their attention.”

A cofferdam, is a fairly simple piece of equipment that is made out of metal panels, which are pieced together around someone who is trapped in a grain bin.

If a person becomes trapped in grain it is used to create a dam around them so they don’t get further engulfed. The grain is extracted from around them to get them out.

“Someone could become trapped if they go into a bin while an auger is running, they can get sucked into the grain or if someone is in the bin working and if the grain is not in good condition it’ll stand up and if it lets go, the person could become entrapped and suffocate,” said Taylor. “They are not very common and it’s something you hope you never use.”

For the seminar, several experts were booked to speak, including Emergency Services Rescue Training (ESRT) directors Carol Jones and Wayne Bauer. ESRT is a not-for-profit agency that develops and delivers agricultural safety and health programs and agricultural emergency response training in the United States and Canada.

They told The Echo, grain in a storage bin can be like quicksand.

“When someone is buried in grain they can’t get themselves out. The forces of the grain on the body are too much,” said Jones. “Without something to hold on to you can’t get yourself out even if you are buried up to your knees. If you are buried up to your waist it’s about 800 pounds of force, if you are up to over your waist it’s about 1,600 pounds of force.”

The cofferdam is used to surround the person so rescuers can scoop or vacuum the grain out from around them to relieve the force and get the person out.

Proper storage of grain helps prevent accidents. When grain has gone out of condition – meaning it has moulded or gone clumpy – it won’t go through the auger in the bottom of the bin properly.

“So somebody goes in to figure out what the problem is and all of a sudden it starts to flow, or the grain is stuck to the wall and it lets loose and covers them like an avalanche,” said Jones, “Or there is a crust of grain and you’ve unloaded everything from under it into the auger and the guy goes in to see why more isn’t coming out. He steps in thinking it’s solid grain and it’s not and he breaks through and it comes down on top of him. That’s almost always a fatality.”

There is an average of 104 people who die in farm accidents every year in Canada “Incident rates for fatalities on farms are six to seven times higher than general industry so we see a lot of deaths on farms,” said Bauer.

The focus of the seminar was on

Area mosquito pool tests positive for West Nile virus The Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit is reporting that mosquitoes collected from a trap in Collingwood tested positive for the West Nile virus (WNv) making for the first lab confirmed evidence of the virus in Simcoe Muskoka this year.

“Finding positive mosquitoes is a reminder that we need to continue to take appropriate measures to protect ourselves against West Nile virus at this time of year,” said Lori Holmes, the health unit’s vector-borne disease coordinator. “The best way for the public to protect themselves is to prevent mosquito bites and remove standing water from their properties to prevent mosquito breeding.”

The health unit recommends using an approved mosquito repellent;

wearing light-coloured clothing and cover up in areas where mosquitoes are present, staying indoors when possible at dusk and dawn, when mosquitoes are most active.

Although most people will not become sick if bitten by an infected mosquito, WNv can cause severe illness in some people. Symptoms of WNv include fever, muscle weakness, stiff neck, confusion, severe headache and a sudden sensitivity to light. In very rare cases, the virus may cause serious neurological illness.

Those experiencing symptoms should seek medical advice.

The health unit will continue its surveillance for the virus in the area as well as throughout Simcoe Muskoka.

The device is used to aid in a grain bin rescue. grain entrapment but farm machinery accidents are the primary cause of farm deaths, with manure pits, large animals and a number of other hazards being factors.

“A lot of emergency responders don’t know how to conduct themselves when they are called to respond to an incident on a farm…” said Bauer. “Unless they

have a real strong ag background they don’t have the faintest idea how to conduct themselves when dealing with those types of things.”

The ESRT is advocating for safer bins and better practices, starting with staying out of the bin when possible, don’t go in alone and have a plan for when something goes wrong.

The way we were

Be on the lookout Creemore is usually a quiet and peaceful village but it has its fair share of vandals and mischiefs.

There are times when public property is defaced or stolen and it’s always hard to know how to deal with it. Giving these incidents too much media coverage can exacerbate the situation but it is important for the community to know what is going on.

Over this past weekend, two particular incidents prompted people to contact The Echo.

While guests were enjoying the festivities at a wedding at Station on the Green Saturday, thieves were rummaging through the unlocked cars and a number of items were stolen. Police were able to question those responsible and recover a number of stolen items and a wallet was later recovered after it was deposited into the library drop box.

On Monday morning daycare providers at Teddy Bears Picnic arrived at work to find the hose had been running for who knows how long and bottles had been smashed in the toddler playground area at the side of the building. Staff had to fish broken glass out of the wood chips.

These are serious examples of mischief causing personal grief and posing a danger to people. There are other less severe examples of defacing public property, when mischief results in an unwanted expense for volunteers and shop owners.

In Creemore, where there isn’t a big police presence, it is important for people to keep an eye out for suspicious behavior. Chances are someone saw uninvited guests at the Station on the night of the wedding or hanging around in the playground at Teddy Bears Picnic.

Thefts from unlocked cars are a big problem in this area.

Local police are always warning people to “lock it or lose it”.

We are so used to feeling secure that it is sometimes hard to remember to remove valuables from vehicles and lock the doors, until something is taken. It is our understanding that thieves aren’t interested in breaking into the car, they just move on to find one that isn’t locked.

Often the things left in cars are the most valuable to us and the most important – prescription glasses, cell phones, wallets. It can be very costly to replace those things. Replacing a wallet is a huge expense, not to mention a pain in the butt.

We all need to be a little more vigilant in the protection in our own property and that of others.

We don’t know if it is always youth who are causing disturbances in the village but chances are boredom plays a role in some of incidents. Anyone who grows up in a small town, where there is very little for teenagers to do, knows that circumstance can lead to trouble and this is where parents must be responsible for knowing the whereabouts of their children.

These things happen everywhere and Creemore is better than most for keeping the peace but please be on the lookout for suspicious behavior and report incidents to the police.

Mosquitoes, ticks in Simcoe Muskoka The resorts and campsites are kicking into full gear and people are glad to get outside. And the mosquitoes and ticks are eager to welcome visitors and local residents alike to the outdoors.

While most of these little creatures are simply an annoyance, some may be carrying diseases that can be debilitating. Both West Nile virus, carried by some types of mosquitoes, and Lyme disease, carried by blacklegged ticks, were detected in Simcoe Muskoka last year.

“We still encourage people to get outside and enjoy the outdoors,” said Lori Holmes, the vectorborne disease program coordinator with the Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit. “We just need to make sure to take the right precautions to avoid being bitten.”

For mosquitoes and ticks, the precautions are similar. Wear light-coloured, long-sleeved clothing, and use bug spray with DEET or Icaridin. When hiking it also helps to wear closed-toe shoes, tuck pants into socks and stay on the centre of trails and paths.

After a day in the outdoors, do a full body check of yourself and children, and shower or bathe as soon as you can to wash away any loose ticks. If you find a tick attached to the skin, remove it right away, since an infected tick has to be on your skin

for more than 24 hours before the disease can spread.

Use fine-tipped tweezers to grasp the tick as close to the skin as possible, and pull it straight away. Ticks can be kept in screw-top bottles or plastic bags and taken to a health unit office or health care provider, where it will be sent for analysis.

The health unit has resumed monitoring for both diseases. For West Nile virus, both adult and larval mosquitoes are being collected to determine if they are the species that can carry the disease and if so, to get them tested for the virus. For Lyme disease, the health unit continues to collect ticks submitted by the public.

“Simcoe Muskoka is listed as a low-risk region for Lyme disease, however blacklegged ticks are present in our area and a few have tested positive for the bacteria that causes Lyme disease,” said health hazards program manager Marina Whelan. National and provincial monitoring are showing the insects and the disease are spreading. A warming climate is making it easier for the ticks to survive winters farther north, Whelan noted.

For more information about Lyme disease and West Nile virus, visit the health unit’s website at www.simcoemuskokahealth.org, or call Health Connection at 705-721-7520 or 1-877-721-7520 weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Claverleigh celebrates historical significance

by Trina Berlo The historical significance of Claverleigh was celebrated July 8 with an elegant garden party, held in the fashion of the day.

With gardens at their peak and blessed with beautiful weather, about 140 guests attended the official unveiling of a plaque to be installed at the home of Meg and Greg Young, located just outside of Creemore. Their weekend and summer getaway was originally built as the rectory for Creemore’s St. Luke’s Anglican Church.

Although formally recognized as a historic site in 1990, Parks Canada and the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada have been holding a number of plaque unveilings this year in celebration of Canada’s sesquicentennial.

“Built in 1871 as a parish rectory, this charming house is a significant example of a Gothic Revival villa in Victorian Canada,” reads the plaque. “With its board-and-batten siding and lively elevations featuring steep gabled roofs, pointed arches, decorative chimney stacks and varied projections, the dwelling blends harmoniously with its natural setting in accordance with 19th century ideals of the picturesque. The projecting porch, bay window, second floor balcony and verandah act as transitional spaces between the house and the surrounding park like grounds, reflecting a life of rural calm and agrarian gentility.”

Parks Canada and the Historic Sites and Monuments Board of Canada proposed an online unveiling through social media but the Youngs had something more traditional in mind. They decided to host an event “to replicate the parties of Rev. and Mrs. Forster held for the congregation,” said Meg. “Except we served wine and they most likely would have served tea and biscuits.”

The house was built as the parish rectory in 1871

by St. Luke’s Church Rev. William Forster, who emigrated from England in 1850. It was designed by his brother, Richard Forster, an architect in England who also designed St. Luke’s. It is believed the

Terry Grant of High River, Alberta and Shannon and Tom Kirk, of Longview, Alberta, were recipients of a Canada 150 Medal for Service June 28 awarded to Ambassadors of the Community in the Municipal District of Foothills, Alberta.

Mantracker awarded Canada 150 service medal Two people with connections to Avening – Terry Grant of High River, Alberta, and Shannon Kirk, along with her husband Tom Kirk, of Longview, Alberta – were recipients of a Canada 150 Medal for Service awarded to Ambassadors of the Community in the Municipal District of Foothills, Alberta.

The medals were presented by local MP John Barlow at a ceremony held in High River, Alberta on June 28.

Terry Grant, also known as Mantracker has put High River on the international map due to filming six seasons of his show which has been televised in dozens of countries around the world.

His name was submitted as he is very humble and most people do not know how much time he volunteers at charity events each year.

Grant has trained British soldiers on how to track in hopes of preventing injuries from land mines in Afghanistan.

For the past four years he has been a role model for Canadian children in his role as Chief Scout for the Boy Scouts of Canada.

Grant also donates his time to Alberta Hunters Education Association running a women’s week every year. He was with Foothills Search and Rescue for many years, assisted Turner Valley police with man searches and wrote a textbook that is being used by Calgary City Police mounted patrol.

Shannon and Tom Kirk have many

achievements on top of already owning the Longview Jerky Shop.

Both Tom and Shannon are volunteer firefighters and were instrumental in helping people escape the 2013 floods.

They worked non-stop to ensure the people of Black Diamond had clean drinking water and came up with an ingenious way to get 911 communications to the town of Black Diamond.

Today, they continue to volunteer day or night responding to fires, vehicle accidents and extreme weather incidents.

When the Kirks aren’t working or responding to fire calls they can be found helping with community barbecues, parades and just about anything else the community needs.

Each recipient was chosen by a panel of judges, from a nomination package which required letters from a nominator, a letter from a seconder, the nominee’s resume and supporting materials consisting of photos and newspaper articles. Nominees could not be nominated by a spouse, member of immediate family, nor awarded posthumously.

Terry Grant is the son of the late Sylvia (Grant) Gale of Avening and Warren Gale of Arnprior.

S h a n n o n K i r k i s t h e G a l e ’s granddaughter and daughter of Shannon Grant-Sosnoski.

– Submitted by Laurie Rowe

Volunteers still needed for car show (Continued from page 1) market, beer garden and will be serving food through the day beginning with breakfast from 6 a.m. During the day there will be an automotive related auction at the Legion.

Big Heart Seniors We sent good wishes to Mercedes Veinot and Alma Seifert both in hospital, get well soon.

Thank you to Lucy Young for a large bag of candy.

Thirty-nine members Evelyn were out for cards and 50/50 Warden draws were won by Melvin Lougheed, Marcia Cameron, Dave Smith, Carol Tymchuk, Alinda Bishop, Bob McNicol and Wayne Brownridge.

Four Moon Shots were played by James Ferguson, Dave Smith, Marcia Cameron and visitor Keith Tippin received the travel prize.

Winners for cards were Keith Tippin, 315; James Ferguson, 288; Corrine Brownridge, 279; and low went to Melvin Lougheed, 144. No one was in the lucky chair.

Karen was the mother of a three year old boy, found out she was to give birth to a daughter and tried to prepare Micheal for a sibling. He would sing to his sister through his mother’s tummy. The song was “You Are My Sunshine” which we all know. Day after day he would sing to his sister. However during delivery there were complications and the baby was in distress and was rushed to a intensive care unit where she continued to deteriorate.

Michael insisted he wanted to sing to his sister but children were not allowed in intensive care. As the baby got worse Karen decided to take Michael to sing to his sister, and when met by a bossy head nurse who demanded she get the kid out of there, normally mild mannered Karen said, “He is going to sing to his sister”. As he sang the baby began to respond, her pulse became steady and her breath became smooth.

By this time, tears were streaming down the face of the head nurse. A day or two later the baby was going home.

Woman’s Day called it the miracle of a brother’s song but the medical staff just called it a miracle.

Remember: As in the story above the power of love is incredible.

Thank you, thank you to all the friends and relatives who came from near and far, to celebrate my birthday at St. Luke’s Hall. It was wonderful to see you and to revisit so many happy memories. We had a lot of laughs over the delicious tea treats. Thank you for coming early and staying late, the perfect way to visit. Thank you also for all those beautiful gifts, cards and well-wishes that I received and for best wishes on Creemore’s main street and the phone calls received before the event. Of course, many hugs and kisses go out to my loving family who did all the work to make this such a special day for me: my daughter Margaret and Craig, granddaughters Michelle and Brandon, Kristine and Justin, and Leah, great-grans Brinley and Fiona who kept us entertained with their table tricks and son Andrew with Nicole, who put together a not-too-embarrassing show of pictures. I was overwhelmed and loved every minute. Imagine not being allowed to organize one thing! What a wonderful day! I love you all.
