Clive VanderBurgh plays a song from his new album, Hair Between His Toes.
Producer makes music for Creemore By Trina Berlo Clive VanderBurgh’s new album is his gift to children. “I wanted to make a contribution to the community using the talents that I have,” said VanderBurgh. “My joy is creating media for children, especially in the three- to eight-year age range.” The title track from Hair Between
His Toes is about a musical pig who takes a hissy fit while strolling through Creemore and eats most of the town “except The Bank Café, Affairs and Cardboard Castles”. VanderBurgh worked in children’s media for CBC and TVO on Today’s Special, Sesame Street, Math Patrol, Math Makers, Cucumber, Roots and
Wings and McCabe Mysteries. He spent four decades producing and teaching children’s media. He has worked as a producer, director, writer, musical director, and has written more than 1,000 songs. This was in the heyday of children’s media, said VanderBurgh, when (See “Album” on page 3)
By Trina Berlo Eight new stop signs will be installed in Creemore in response to residents’ concerns about speeding and pedestrian safety. Clearview council agreed to several actions Monday to address traffic concerns voiced by a number of residents
living on Creemore’s east side. Jeremy Ray, Linda Coulter, Doug Mills and Caitlin Sumner spoke in support of Deputy Mayor Barry Burton’s motion to create community safety zones, doubling fines for speeding, on Mill Street, from County Road 9 to George Street, and on George Street, from
Concession 3 to Mill Street. Council also agreed to add stop signs along Mary Street, creating four-way stops at Edward Street East and George Street, and another at Library Street and Elizabeth Street East, and a three-way stop at Francis Street East and Mary. (See “Community” on page 3)

by Trina Berlo A seven-year-old boy was killed in a house fire last Thursday on Highway 26, near County Road 10 in Clearview Township. “Despite rescue efforts by first responders and persons at scene, the victim could not make it out and died in the house fire,” said police. Emergency crews were called to attend to the fire just before 9 p.m. to find four occupants had escaped and the house was fully engulfed in flames. Emergency crews were advised that one occupant, the seven-year-old boy, was still trapped inside. Media reports identified the boy as Dominic Denesiuk-Smith. Two single fathers, three children, an 18-year-old and two dogs were living at the house, according to an online fundraising page set up by Karla Amy. She said, “This family is in need of everything and any donations would be greatly appreciated. They did not have house insurance so starting from the bottom is not easy… Please let’s come together and help this family.” Two Creemore flower shops sold flowers and donated all of the proceeds to the family. Kelsey Rowbotham of the Cut Flower Co. said she had flowers left over from a wedding so she made them into bouquets and sold them, contributing all proceeds to the fundraising campaign. She has a farm near Sunnidale Corners and heard the sirens. “Once I knew what had happened I couldn’t get the sound out of my head,” said Rowbotham. (See “Donors” on page 3)

this?,” he asked. “Do they really want big words painted on the asphalt? I don’t live there so I only have to see it a few times a year.” He and Connie Leishman agreed that making traffic stop more may cause more noise but Burton said, the issue is not about noise, it’s about speed. Councillor Robert Walker was opposed to the plan. He said putting up signs won’t solve anything without enforcement and police aren’t in the area because they don’t have data to support the claim there is a speeding problem and that adding signs may create more of a hazard. “It may sound like I don’t care but I do care…” said Walker. “I cannot support all these signs being thrown up.” “We have an obligation to represent the people who live there,” said Burton. He said residents are looking for a solution to a Creemore specific problem, to make the neighbourhood safer. The motion’s seven actions were voted on separately with varying levels of support but they all passed.

(Continued from page 1) Council also agreed to paint ‘SLOW DOWN’ on the pavement at the end of Mill Street and on the east end of George Street and the north end of Collingwood Street. The stop signs and painting are estimated to cost $5,600. A group of concerned citizens, many of whom were represented at the meeting, began advocating for reduced speed limits and additional stop signs last year, especially in the areas without sidewalks. They circulated a petition and gathered more than 100 signatures. “The 100 people who signed the petition can’t be wrong,” said Ray. Residents said with narrow streets, a lack of sidewalks, and very little police enforcement, traffic is a concern even if the evidence doesn’t support their claims. Coulter said there are specific concerns around the nursing home on Mary Street, which is an unhindered route in and out of town. Councillor Shawn Davidson said council was facing a “political decision” in that Burton’s motion is in response to a community concern. “Has anyone talked to the BIA about

Album set to release at Children's Festival (Continued from page 1) television was based on new research into the cognitive development of children. He was part of a group of experts who explored the possibilities of the media and produced the forerunners of educational television. VanderBurgh said each script was scrutinized by several levels of producers, advisors and education experts before being filmed. Some shows were specifically designed to teach the approved curriculum. “I always joke, I have written more songs about triangles that anyone else in the world,” said VanderBurgh. Some of the songs on the album are favourites from the past and some are very new. The album includes silly songs, lullabies, songs with social messages of safety, acceptance and coping. The track On This Day, for instance, has an anti-bullying theme.
The self-produced album is a project VanderBurgh undertook without any commercial aspirations in mind. He simply wanted to put his talents to work to produce something for children. So, he pulled together some world-class talent and using only the best musicians, studio techs, illustrator and art director to collaborate on a wholly Canadian project. “There are a lot of well meaning people in children’s media, people who are very smart, they don’t get the opportunity to work with the best “I have found the world to be quite unsettled in the last five to six years. Demands on children and families are enormous,” said VanderBurgh, adding the album is designed to bring comfort, joy, laughter, dance and silliness. “We have always needed that and it seems to be we need that desperately now.”
Donors support online fundraiser (Continued from page 1) She kept thinking about the family and decided to do what she could to contribute. Marcy Stewart of Flowers by Ms Design, also sold flowers Saturday during Creemore Valley Classics car show and is donating all of the money to the campaign. She said she always sells $15 bouquets around town on Saturdays and decided to divert that money to the family. “A lot of people didn’t even take the flowers, they just wanted to donate,” said Stewart. “I was thinking, with the number of people in town, there’s got to be a way to raise money.”
A customer brought the fire to her attention and she was seeing it in the media. “I thought it would be a nice way to do our part. You know, small town, big heart,” said Stewart. “Also, we had a house fire (10 years ago) so I know how it feels to lose everything you have. I can’t even fathom what it would be like to lose a child.” Together they contributed about $400 to the cause. As of presstime, the Go Fund Me campaign had raised almost $30,000.

Sip and fidget at log cabin
Clearview Public Library is inviting you to join us at the Creemore Log Cabin to have a complimentary “cuppa of coffee” with us in support of the Alzheimer’s Society of Simcoe County on Saturday, Michele McKENZIE July 22 between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. At this time, we will also be giving away Twiddlemuffs. And you may wonder - what is a Twiddlemuff? A Twiddlemuff is a knitted or crocheted muff with bits and bobs attached to it to occupy fidgety, anxious hands to encourage movement and soothes agitation. For those with Alzheimer’s, Dementia or Autism, this tactile therapy is proving popular. We will have 24 Twiddlemuffs to give away and we will be working on others by demonstrating the pioneer crafts of crocheting, knitting and sewing during this coffee break. At this time, we will also happily accept donations of yarn, buttons, pieces of costume jewellery and keys that we can use to decorate our Twiddlemuffs as this will be an ongoing library outreach project.
LIBRARY NEWS
With my backyard composter out of order temporarily I have come to realize just how much organic waste is being diverted from my regular household garbage. I have always used my green bin for dryer lint, paper coffee cups, meat and bones, and whatever else could attract animals to my backyard, but everything else goes in the compost pile. With the composter being in a state of redesign (or should I say under a pile of dirt next to a big hole that will be a new septic system), I have been using my green bin to dispose of all my organic waste. So my large green bin will be brimming when it goes to the curb and I can clearly measure exactly how much is not going into the garbage bin. Studies show that 65 per cent of Simcoe County residents use their green bin, but that 40 per cent of the materials being placed in the garbage should be going in the green bin instead. You may be surprised to learn that wax paper, tissues, paper towels, napkins, and all paper materials used for food such as paper plates or used pizza boxes, plants, and small wooden items contaminated with food, such as bamboo skewers and stir sticks, should be going in the green bin also. Keeping organics out of garbage reduces harmful greenhouse gas production in landfills. The organics are made into compost and fertilizer and keeping them out of the landfill helps protect our groundwater resources. There are no plans to open any new landfill sites so there is a big push towards waste diversion. There are however plans to expand the green bin program with the future organics processing facility that is in the planning stages. Hopefully in the future we will also be able to divert kitty litter and other compostables out of the landfill. I am a believer in carefully sorting waste at home in order to make the process more efficient at the other end. In order to promote green bin usage and raise awareness about what goes in which bin, the County of Simcoe is holding a #GreenBintoWin contest running until August 21: The social media contest offers green bin “feeders” a chance to win prize packs and a grand prize consisting of a weekend for two adults and two children at Fern Resort in Orillia. Simply take a photo showing “How You Feed Your Green Bin”. Post it using the hashtag #GreenBintoWin, follow and tag @ SimcoeCounty on Twitter and/or @CountyofSimcoe on Facebook. For full contest rules, information and eligibility requirements please visit: www.simcoe.ca/ greenbintowin. Visit www.simcoe.ca/greenbin to learn more about the green bin program. There you’ll find an excellent tool to direct people exactly what goes where.

United Way funds youth centre by Trina Berlo Clearview Youth Centre is getting a financial boost from United Way Simcoe Muskoka. The agency has agreed to fund the youth centre to the tune of $38,250 over two years, with the possibility of a third year of funding. United Way Simcoe Muskoka CEO Dale Biddell was before council Monday to address the finalization of the funding, which has been in negotiation for almost two years, since the initial talks about starting the youth centre in Stayner began. She said the youth centre is a very valuable resource for Clearview Township. Biddell said the funds are not from the United Way’s traditional community fund, but comes from other funding sources, including private donors. The project meets the intention of a UWSM special initiative,” states a business case prepared for the United Way Simcoe Muskoka finance and audit committee. “It seeks to meet an identified need through a project
that will provide solutions and it has multiple funders and supporters that will allow UWSM’s contribution to be leveraged to greater impact. These projects have the capacity to interest individual donors who want to give locally and see an impact. Donations to the Centre will flow through UWSM and be allocated to the project – essentially a donor designation that is already a common practice in workplace campaigns. Where a project has particularly strong appeal it may have the capacity to generate substantial gifts.” The money is to help cover the youth centre’s operating expenses. Shortly after approving the funding agreement, council considered spending $18,000 on wages to extend the youth centre coordinator position until the end of the year and to increase the hours, going from 30 to 40 hours per week. Councillor Deborah Bronée opposed the funding agreement and the contract extension, keeping with her position that the youth centre is outside the mandate of the

municipality. She and fellow councillor Doug Measures reiterated concerns about the employment status of the youth coordinator because the employee reports to the committee and is not considered a municipal employee. Mayor Christopher Vanderkruys asked for better reporting from the youth centre. Councillor Robert Walker, who sits on the youth centre committee, said comprehensive reporting, which goes beyond basic attendance, is not a problem and will be forthcoming. Michael Fish has been hired as the coordinator. Until last month, when an employment contract was signed, Fish filled the role as a volunteer. Fish graduated from a social service worker program and has volunteered with a number of youth programs in the area. He has also been a vocal advocate for youth mental health resources. Also new to the youth centre, Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Georgian Triangle has joined the list of outside agencies offering programs.
Hospital board appoints new president, CEO Collingwood General & Marine Hospital (CGMH) board of trustees has appointed Norah Holder as president and CEO, effective August 1. “The board of trustees is very confident in Mrs. Holder’s ability to lead the hospital during this most important, exciting and challenging period of its 130th year. Norah has served as the vice president of patient services and the chief nursing executive since 2009, and currently holds the position of interim CEO. As demonstrated through her hospital accomplishments and as a leader among our healthcare community partners, she is the voice of the patient. We are fortunate to be able to make this seamless transition to a new president and CEO from within the CGMH organization,” said board chair Thom Paterson. During her eight year tenure, Holder has managed a portfolio which has included the entire nursing team (See “Norah” on page 10)

If Roses Grow in Heaven by Dolores M. Garcia
If roses grow in heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me, Place them in my Grandmother’s arms and tell her they’re from me. Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile. Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, but there’s an ache within my heart that will never go away. She is always in our hearts.
