Macmillan recovering from surgery that removed tumour in pancreas By John Campbell
Trent Hills – Confident he has won one battle, this one for his life, Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan is determined to wage another - with Ontario’s health-care system when he returns home from Germany. Macmillan is currently recovering from a four-hour operation at a hospital in Stralsund Oct. 6 that removed a cancerous tumour from his pancreas. His surgeon told the feisty mayor “it couldn’t have gone better, it met his total expectations,” Macmillan said in a telephone interview from his hospital bed Oct. 8. The life-saving operation he underwent, NanoKnife irreversible electroporation (IRE), is not available to Ontarians with pancreatic cancer, and Ontario Health Insurance Plan officials told Macmillan he was not eligible for out-of-country funding to have it done elsewhere. A fundraising campaign mounted by friends generated roughly $60,000 to help cover his costs to be treated in Germany. Macmillan will remain there with his wife Sandy before flying home Oct. 28. The couple are staying longer “because they want you to hang around for a couple of weeks after you get out, just in case you have any trouble,” he said.
“We’re going to talk about chemotherapy when I’m more up to it ... I just got to look after myself and do a little bit of healing here, get back into shape, and [then] get home and back to work.” In the weeks leading up to his going overseas, Macmillan vowed to fight for changes upon his return, saying the health-care system was “rigged” against patients like him, and he accused the the provincial government of “murdering people” because of its intransigence. “I have every intention of coming back from Germany and picking up exactly where I left off,” Macmillan told council members Sept. 20. “OHIP has not heard the end of this yet, nor has the Health Services Review board [which handled his appeal], or Cancer Care Ontario [which was to provide expert witnesses opposing his application for funding]. They’re all in my sights.” He told council half of the 2,000 Ontarians diagnosed each year with pancreatic cancer are “IRE candidates, and we’re all just being left out to die. That’s not acceptable.” “There’s no reason why this thing shouldn’t be available at home,” he said from Germany. Macmillan said he’s had a “huge” response from people who support what he’s doing. “People are so pissed off to find out that there’s alternatives out there and
our government is just too cheap to pay for it,” he said. “Their arrogance is unbelievable, too.” He’s also upset he has never heard from the Canadian Cancer Society or Pancreatic Cancer Canada. “Where
are these guys in all of this?” he asked. “We would be able to join our resources together [to bring about change].” Macmillan said the care he has received at the German hospital is “absolutely wonderful” but he stressed
he has always found the “front-line service” provided Ontario hospitals “to be good as well.” “I’m not bashing for what we have, I’m bashing for what we don’t have,” he said.
Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan gives the thumbs up after having surgery to remove a cancerous tumour from his pancreas. The operation, considered experimental in Ontario, was performed at a hospital in Germany Oct. 6. Draping his bed is the Royal Flag of Scotland, also known as the battle flag. Photo submitted.

Scarecrows and soup to celebrate fall harvest in Campbellford By Sue Dickens
Campbellford – An invitation to celebrate the fall harvest with handmade scarecrows and homemade soup has been made public through Facebook and flyers posted by volunteers of the Campbellford Community Edibles Garden. “It’s mainly to bring awareness and educate people as to how produce is grown,” said Julie Owens, a very active volunteer with the group. “We’ve sent flyers to local schools and invited local businesses to make a scarecrow and promote their business at our event.” The harvest garden soup day will be held Saturday, Oct. 15, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and will feature homemade soups prepared by the volunteers with everything edible from the garden that is in season, including potato and kale soup, butternut squash soup, cabbage soup, both non-tomato and tomato based vegetable soup, carrot soup and a special beet
borscht. “We’re hoping some of our business sponsors we’ve had for the garden can come and try some of the harvest vegetables,” Owens said. Scarecrow contest entries are welcome the day of the event. When it is all over, the creators can take them home or donate them to the garden on Doxsee Avenue North for others to enjoy. “We’re also having a colouring contest for the kids, and a table will be set up. We will have a rope and clothespins to hang up some of their work,” Owens said. The community edibles garden volunteers have seeded and weeded and watered all summer. On “pick day,” which is once a week, any vegetables left over are donated to the local food bank. “Last Sunday, we donated to St. John’s United Church for their community meal,” said Owens. Nothing goes to waste. Plans are in the works to dehydrate some of the herbs that are left in the garden.

MPP sympathetic to mayor’s “challenging” situation By John Campbell
Hastings -- NorthumberlandQuinte West MPP Lou Rinaldi rejects Mayor Hector Macmillan’s claims the provincial government is “trying to kill him” but he understands the mayor’s “frustration” in making those accusations. In allocating health-care resources, “we leave those decisions to the experts [who]
have the best knowledge of what’s available to treat anything today, tomorrow and the next day,” Rinaldi said, during a breakfast meeting of the Trent Hills and District Chamber of Commerce held Sept. 30 in Hastings. Although the operation Macmillan underwent in Germany is also done in the United States and other countries, Rinaldi pointed out “no province in Canada
has approved that particular procedure.” The surgery is considered experimental and outside the scope of care currently being offered through the provincial health-care system. Macmillan is “a good friend” facing a “challenging” situation who “has lost confidence in the health-care system,” Rinaldi said. “If I were in his shoes I’d probably feel the same way.”

OPP bust operation in Marmora, Stirling Marmora – Various specialized units from Ontario Provincial Police and Central Hastings OPP detachment officers raided residents in Marmora and on Springbrook Road, seizing cocaine, pot and weapons. Police said they executed search warrants on homes on Madoc Street in Marmora and on Springbrook Road at about 5 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 5, arresting four people and seizing $17,000 worth of drugs. Police said a handgun, ammunition, drugs and cash were seized in the raids. Charged were Konstantine Marianos, 23, of Marmora; Spiros Merianos, 76, of Marmora; Amanda Taylor, 26, and Quinn Bolton, 19, both of Stirling. All face a raft of charges including possession of drugs, a restricted handgun and possession of proceeds from crime. All were released from custody to appear in court Oct. 27. Central Hastings OPP, in holding a press conference Thursday, said the investigation had been ongoing for “a period of time, but all came together in the last two weeks. At the press conference, bags of drugs and a weapon seized in the raids were displayed for reporters. It’s the start of a crackdown on drugs as they target those with
addictions, said police. Detachment Commander Staff Sgt. Scott Semple said in an interview with Central Hastings/Trent Hills News police are ramping up the war on drugs in small, rural communities where addictions are a growing problem. “The message we really want to send is that drug dealers prey on people with addictions in our community and our role is to take away the supply of the illegal addictive substances,� said Semple. “We are aggressively going after those predators and encourage those who have an addictions problem to contact Addictions and Mental Health Services for support. “This is just the start,� warned Semple. “We want drug dealers in Centre Hastings put on notice - we are coming for you.�  “It’s a North-American wide problem,� said the detachment commander, noting OPP “worked with Belleville City Police and Tyendinaga Police as a joint effort and will continue to be how we do things. “This isn’t just a Central Hastings area problem; we need to work collaboratively with other services and that’s what we intend to do. We need to share information to getting to the bottom of the drug problem.�

OPINION
Water woes continue unabated
The problem with referendums President Juan Manuel Santos was not obliged to hold a referendum to ratify the deal to end sixty years of war between the Colombian government and FARC (the RevoGwynne Dyer lutionary Armed Forces of Colombia). It was held because both Santos and the FARC leaders thought a referendum victory would make it harder for any later government to break the deal – but they lost the referendum. In Sunday’s referendum, slightly more than a third of qualified Colombian voters (37 percent) actually bothered to cast a ballot – and the ‘No’ side won by a sliver-thin majority of 50.2 percent. The ‘Yes’ side, however, got large majorities in the more rural parts of the country that had been devastated by the long war. In the war zones, most people just wanted the killing to stop, but in the safer urban areas people had the luxury of wondering whether it was morally justifiable to grant an amnesty to rebels who had killed so many people. And as in most referendums, lots of people seized the chance to make a protest vote against the government in general. So the peace deal was lost. There is no Plan B. “If the public says ‘No,’ the process stops and there will be no result,” chief government negotiator Humberto de la Calle told Colombia’s El Tiempo newspaper. “The consequence of ‘No’ winning is war,” said former President Cesar Gaviria, who led the campaign for the ‘Yes’ vote. That may be too pessimistic, for FARC’s leaders really do want to end the war. “If ‘No’ wins, it wouldn’t mean that the process has to fall apart,” guerrilla negotiator Carlos Antonio Lozada said in late June. “We aren’t required by law to decide to continue such a painful war.” But without the legal protection of the peace deal, many of FARC’s 5,000 fighters will be reluctant to lay down their weapons and come out of the jungle. Why did Santos take the risk of a referendum? Neither the Colombian constitution nor any other country’s says that peace agreements ending civil wars must be ratified by a referendum. (National constitutions do not even consider the possibility of a civil war.) And when civil wars do end, most

governments recognise that emotions are still too raw to put necessary concessions like an amnesty for all the combatants to a popular vote. At the end of the anti-apartheid struggle in South Africa, Nelson Mandela won the country’s first one-person-one-vote election, but he did not hold a referendum asking the voters to approve the agreement he had negotiated with the white minority regime. Instead he created the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, where those who had committed atrocities were asked to admit their crimes, but were not punished. There was no referendum held to ratify the Good Friday Agreement of 1998 that effectively ended the 30-year civil war in Northern Ireland. Nobody asked the Lebanese people to approve the diplomatic Taif Agreement of 1989 that led to an end of the fifteen-year civil war there, and it was the Lebanese parliament, not a referendum, that passed the amnesty law. A referendum is a very blunt instrument even when the question at issue is less tangled and emotional than a civil war. In the recent referendum on British membership in the European Union, for example, most of the 51.9 percent who voted to leave were really voting against mass immigration (half of which does not come from the EU) and against the impact of globalisation on their living standards. It might as well have read: “Do you want to abandon Hungarian sovereignty and let the EU resettle terrorists here?” Ultranationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orban wanted a ‘No’, and he got it: 98 percent of those who voted said ‘No’. (But more than half of the electorate didn’t vote at all, possibly out of contempt for Orban’s blatant attempt to manipulate public opinion.) Then there was the Greek referendum of July last year, when Prime Minister Tsipras asked the public if it accepted the tough conditions of an EU offer to bail Greece out of a debt crisis once more. He wanted a ‘No’ and he got it (61 percent ‘No’, 39 percent ‘Yes) – but ten days later he ignored the result and agreed to an even harsher offer from the EU. And got away with it. Referendums are usually “advisory” and do not have the force of law. They rarely have an outcome that could not be achieved by a simple vote in an elected parliament at a hundredth of the cost. And a democratically elected parliament does a much better job of asking and answering the right question.

Editorial by Chris Malette
Some weeks back, we warned in this space that there needed to be some serious efforts by all of us in the region to save water. Now, it’s more dire than earlier in summer, if one looks at the totality of the problem of drought in the region. Farmers know well the damage – loss of as much as 50 per cent of some crops, corn, soybeans, grains … it’s one of the history books. But, now as the Trent River basin and the Moira River regions struggle with Level 2 and Level 3 low water conditions, respectively, municipalities are starting to sound the claxons. A Level 3 Low Water Condition was declared by Quinte Conservation due to lack of rainfall and low flows in local rivers and streams on August 4. The Quinte Conservation watersheds have been experiencing low water conditions since the beginning of June. Late last month, Quinte Conservatin underscored the low water statement, saying it is still in effect. As we reported this past week, Stirling-Rawdon’s Environmental Committee voted on Tuesday, Oct. 4, to invoke a part of the Township’s water bylaw that regulates usage. Instead of the voluntary reduction enacted earlier this summer due to the drought, residents will be required to cut their usage by 50 per cent, and all non-essential water use has been banned outright. That includes lawn-watering, car-washing and filling swimming pools, hot tubs and the like. Matthew Richmond, the township’s Chief Operator of Water and Wastewater, said the water level in the town’s wells has dropped significantly. “We are a ground water system with shallow ground water wells,” he explained. “They’re not really deep wells, so when the aquifers drop, the water level drops as well.” Overall, Quinte Conservation’s experts are warning the effects of the drought are lingering and more and more people are trucking in water for their homes, farms and businesses with each passing week. Water Resources Manager Christine McClure sums up the hard-to-understand scenario for the layperson. “We are getting a lot of questions recently about how much rain we need to bring the area out of this severe low water condition. The situation is not as clear-cut as being able to say a particular amount of rain will help. Our water levels and flows are so
low now that it is important for the area to receive a steady amount of rain over a number days. The recent rainfall caused a small increase in stream and river flows, but those are already declining. Individual rainfall events are not having a significant impact on the situation.” McClure added on the Quinte Conservation website quinteconservation.ca, “We are getting new reports of people with wells going dry. Under normal conditions our groundwater levels would decline through to October. This year it will be worse. People on private wells will need to be careful with their water use and monitor their wells in case they should go dry.” Quinte Conservation is continuing to ask residents and businesses to reduce their water use by 50 per cent until the water supply has been replenished. In Stirling, meanwhile, the area has received only 60 per cent of the average rainfall during the period from April to September. That has led to the aquifer not being replenished as it normally would be. Richmond said recent rainfalls have not been enough to restore the aquifer, and that meteorologists are predicting a dry fall, so the problem is not likely to be resolved quickly. The problem also is being felt by rural residents who rely on their own private wells. “My well went dry about a week and a half ago,” Richmond said. “It’s not just a town problem. It’s the whole aquifer.” He said this is the lowest water level recorded since Stirling’s first municipal well was dug in 1958. “Historically, we haven’t had water levels this low to my knowledge,” he said. As noted, the problem is not confined to StirlingRawdon, either. Tweed, Madoc and Havelock all use wells to provide their towns with water, and all are experiencing low water levels. In larger municipal areas like Belleville and Trenton the scenario may not seem as dire, but the simple truth is we all have to do our part. Do you do a load of laundry every day? Stop. Just stop the washer, now. If you have a large family, do a load every three to four days, even longer if you can. Do you throw on a dishwasher with a half load? Stop. Wait until the machine is full. Simple things. It all adds up when aquifers are being sucked dry and relief is nowhere in sight.w

Madoc—The board of Centre Hastings Public Library approved and accepted a new logo design for the library at their regular meeting on Tuesday, Oct.4, which they will unveil during Library Week, Oct.16-22. Librarian Tammie Adams had contemplated updating the current logo to reflect more clearly what the library has to offer. “Libraries are so much more than books these days.” she said. “Though we provide local information, history, and a selection of reading material, we also offer a wealth of information from across the globe via the internet.” Adams purchased the logo some time ago for another project. She said one day, driving to work, it came to her ,”That logo is perfect to reflect our library”. She said local libraries are places where everyone knows each other, where patrons get friendly, personal service, but can also research the world through internet access, read newspapers, ebooks and find resources. The Madoc library has always promoted local artists and authors, and works with local agencies and resources to update historical data and bring in books for rural patrons. Library Week also is a time of forgiveness of fines for those with overdue books, or those who
News Release
The Trent Hills Fire Prevention Team Urges Homeowners to Make Smart Choices when Installing Smoke Alarms Throughout Their Home Working smoke alarms throughout the home increases the chances of surviving a fire In an effort to reduce the number of fatalities in home fires, the Trent Hills Fire Prevention Team is recommending that homeowners make sure they have the appropriate number of working smoke alarms in their homes, and to make sure they are installed for proper operation and maximum efficiency. Smart Choices for Smoke Alarm Placement, an education initiative supported nationally by the International Association of Fire Chiefs, encourages homeowners to understand smoke alarms and think strategically about their placement. “Smoke alarms have been proven to increase the chances of survivor by giving the residents additional time to get out of the house,” explained Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake. “However, many residents do not have the appropriate number of working smoke alarms in their home which leaves them under protected. This is a major issue as the home is the place you are most likely to die in a fire as 85 percent of all fatal fires occur in a residence. Installing smoke alarms throughout the home increases the chances of surviving a fire, added Brad Patfield. Additionally, installing alarms strategically enables residents to maximize the benefits of different alarm features and reduce nuisance alarms that can temp people to forgo protection. On average, families have less than three minutes from the time the first smoke alarm sounds to escape a fire. The sooner an alarm is heard, the more time there is to respond. “The most important thing is to ensure that there are working smoke alarms on every floor of the home, in hallways, in living areas, inside bedrooms and outside of sleeping areas,” explained Brad Patfield. “It is also important to remember that smoke alarms do not last forever. Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years and tested monthly.” Homeowners should especially make sure they have alarms every bedroom or just outside the bedroom in the hallway. According to a recent report: • More than half (55 percent) of all home fire fatalities occur in the bedroom. • More than a third (35 percent) of the victims were asleep at the time of the fire. • Half of all home fire fatalities occur between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m., when most people are asleep. • Placing smoke alarms in bedrooms as well as in hallways could increase a family’s escape time by up to 15 minutes, according to the National Institute of Standards and Technology.

Madoc accessibility project gets boost from Parrott Foundation
By Diane Sherman Date: September 20, 2016
forgot to return something in the past. To conclude the week, author Steve Glover will return to his roots in Madoc to present his book, Madoc and Township Soldiers of the Great War: 1914 - 1918, on Saturday morning, Oct. 22, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m.. Glover is always willing to receive new information, so, if you have family records, feel free to bring them along to share.
Madoc - A drive to raise $50,000 to qualify for a federal grant from the Enabling Accessibility Fund got a significant boost from the John M. & Bernice Parrott Foundation, in the amount of $40,000. Charles Gordon, Centre Hastings park ambassador and member of the parks committee, made the application. Receipt of the Parrott donation was announced Sept. 21 at a special park and recreation meeting to plan for Canada 150 events. At the same time, committee members received $1,080 from the Moira Lake Property Owners Association golf tournament and $100 from the Central Hastings Support Network. The Madoc Lions Club announced the $1,080 they raised through the golf tournament shared with the MLPOA is earmarked for purchase of an additional piece of accessible play equipment for the park.
Parks and Recreation coordinator Jeff Bitton said there is still no guarantee some, or any, of the federal funding will be approved, “so there is still the need to push forward with local fundraising”. Mayor Tom Deline and wife Kim hosted a concert on Sunday, Oct. 2, featuring William “Elvis” Young, Madoc’s own Elvis impersonator, at the Arts Centre, raising nearly $400. They are considering another event in the future. Restructuring to meet accessibility goals is estimated at $140,000 to pave the pathways and parking lot, make accessible parking spaces and add accessible play structures. The committee raised slightly over $6,000 with events this summer, and members are hoping for additional corporate support in the future. Though the initial goal was $50,000, Bitton says, “We ideally hope to raise $70-75,000, leaving the municipality $15-20,000 to cover through in-kind services.”
To meet accessibility requirements, Centre Hastings Park needs renovations totaling $140,000. A boost from the Parrott Foundation brings them closer to their funding goal. Diane Sherman/Metroland

seminar on the topic on Thursday, Sept. 29, in Ivanhoe to a very small audience. They said one does not have to leave the farm to be informed or make an appeal, but computer skills can be helpful. By creating an account, using the role number, farmers can access details of their property, how it is assessed and compare the assessment with others. The Wrights explained that farms are assessed differently from residential properties. They are classified by land type, with “one” being prime land and “six” being unsuitable. If a farmer stops using a portion for profit, or if tan area is developed for profit, values change. There is a farm forestry exemption for up to 20 acres of wooded area. If land is taken over by brush or wetland, or has lost its potential, values change, and if you find a portion of your farm still classified as residential, you can alter that, they said. If your details are not current, you need to update them. These are the changes that MPAC wants to hear about. They recommended asking yourself if you could have sold your property for the assessed value on Jan. 2016, and reviewing the website to compare similar properties. Assessments go to the municipality, who set your tax rate. Updating information is beneficial, since farms are taxed 25 per cent less. They said that if you have issues with your assessment, contact MPAC and file a RFR. The cost is $75. If that doesn’t satisfy your concerns, you have a right to appeal. The goal is to get issues taken care of within 120 days, because it is this assessment which will determine your tax share over the next four years.

Campbellford Hospital facing challenge of increased patient volumes By Sue Dickens
Campbellford – The ebb and flow of patient volumes is a constant at Campbellford Memorial Hospital, but mechanisms are in place to help staff cope with the ever-increasing numbers. The statistics are in, and they show just how much of an increase staff has had to deal with during July and August, as tourists and children out of school added to the numbers of people who showed up at the emergency department. Increases also are being recorded annually. “Patient numbers are increasing,” said Sue Robinson, manager of the emergency department and ambulatory clinics, pharmacy and dietary. She has been manager for about five years, having worked the frontline in emergency for approximately 34 years. The emergency department sees on average, 67 patients daily. “This past August, we saw 77 patients in 24 hours,” said Robinson. That’s up from 65 for the same month last year. Stats show that, in the first quarter of this hospital year, April through August, there were 9,512 patients treated in the emergency department. That compares to 9,326 patients for the same period in 2015, an increase of 186 patients. Staff also are also seeing patients with more complex health issues. “Looking at the first quarter, April 2014 to March 2015 . . . looking at different categories on the acuity scale, compared to April 2015 to March 2016, we’ve had an increase of 200 patients in the emergent category for the year, and the urgents are up 300,” Robinson explained. “The acuity is going up, which means we’re seeing sicker patients, which takes longer and requires more investigations.” There also are more patients with dementia, she said. “We live in an area with a lot of seniors,” Robinson said. “We’re dealing with it, but as a result, we have had a lot of patients that are ‘behaviour’ patients, so we have security and nurses here for that.” The hospital has several methods to help mitigate the increasing demand on resources. “We brought in the nurse practitioner program,” said Robinson. “It’s a godsend.” Nurse practitioners work seven
days a week during peak times, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. “We’re looking for a third nurse practitioner, part-time, to provide vacation relief,” she noted. The second solution, she said, is “a lot of medical directors that allow nurses to go ahead and start things like getting blood
work done, X-rays or giving some types of pain medication.” The third is to ensure good communication between the first floor (for patients admitted), and the emergency department. When there are no hospital beds available, the stretchers in the emergency department are used to take the overflow.
These are some of the registered nurses in the frontline staff at the emergency department of Campbellford Memorial Hospital: Sue Robinson, centre, department manager; on her left, Marion Tinson and Carol Kerr (unit clerk); on her right Teri-Lynn Brown and Katelyn Lewis.

well was dug in 1958. “Historically, we haven’t had water levels this low to my knowledge,” he said. Richmond said the problem is not confined to Stirling-Rawdon, either. Tweed, Madoc and Havelock all use wells to provide their towns with water, and all are experiencing low water levels. Meanwhile, the Township is cancelling its fall hydrant flush and will probably go to annual flushing, he said, and is using its “audible listener” equipment to search for any small leaks in water mains. While the new bylaw will be difficult to enforce except when someone is caught watering their lawn or otherwise wasting water, Richmond said the point is to make people aware of the seriousness of the situation. “A lot of this is public education,” he said. “People have to realize (water) is not an endless resource. “Are we out of water right now? No. We’re trying to get the message out that we need to conserve.”
displeased with the new liability insurance requirements. “We appreciate the funding we get from the municipality (which owns all of the hamlet halls),” she said. “They tell us it wouldn’t be possible to run the halls without volunteers. The Thomasburg Hall is not there to make money. We just try to cover our costs.” There were times when the hall was rented constantly during the summer, she said, but they have only had one rental since the new insurance requirements came into effect. The Snells reflected on the role of volunteers and mentioned the key role of the late Al Anderson and his wife Eve, former Thomasburg residents. “He did a hell of a lot; he was the guy that got it together,” Peter observed. Carol added, “He was a very nice fellow. He seemed infinitely patient. There’s a plaque in the hall commemorating his contribution. Eve did the job of booking the hall before I did.” Currently, the Hall Committee and the Beautification Committee are collaborating on plans for events in the hamlet to celebrate Canada’s 150th anniversary next year and they are encouraging anyone with ideas or the time and energy to step up and help out.
Thomasburg – A few years ago, residents of Thomasburg and surrounding area learned that they would no longer be able to access drinking water from a spring in the hamlet, which had been in use for generations. New provincial drinking water regulations meant that Tweed members of council would have been personally financially responsible for any liabilities arising from the use of the spring if they did not close it to the public. It is a risk few elected officials would be willing to take on. Residents responded with imagination and energy and the Beautification Committee turned the spring property into an attractive small park. Now the Thomasburg Hall Committee is faced with a new challenge arising from new regulations. The committee has been informed that it will have to pay $162 for insurance for each use of the hall in which alcohol is served. The new burden already has seriously affected hall rentals, an important source of funds for the committee. “For the first time, we had a bit of a (financial) shortfall — not a lot, just a few hundred dollars, because hall rentals have dropped off,” said Carol Snell, who is secretary of the Hall Committee while her husband Peter is the chair. She stressed that they do not rent out the hall for “buck and doe” type events, which can become boisterous, but people do rent it for Chairperson Peter and Secretary Carol Snell wedding receptions and have served on the Thomasburg Hall Committee similar events at which alcohol is served.

Syrian refugee family celebrates first Thanksgiving By Sue Dickens
Trent Hills – Celebrating their first Thanksgiving, a Syrian refugee family who arrived in Canada just three weeks ago has many reasons to be grateful after fleeing for their lives from their war-torn country in the Middle East. “I am very happy. I’m thinking about this moment and I am very happy,” said Anna Kilisly, who with her husband Kalil and their two sons, Zain, age 4 ½ and Sam, 10 months, are staying at their temporary home in Hastings, thanks to the generosity of Emmanuelle and Dr. Brendan Keogh. Sitting in the kitchen, the Keoghs talked about why they decided to help. “We heard of the terrible humanitarian crisis (in Syria) and I was feeling so bad and wondered, what can we do?” said Emmanuelle. She said opening up their home to the refugee family brought here through the efforts of the Trent Hills Community Refugee Initiative was an easy decision. The Kilisly family is from Damascus, the capital of Syria and the second largest city in the country, and their main language is Arabic. Learning English is a priority. They are able to speak the language slightly and, with the use of an app on their cell phone, can get a translation quickly for words that they don’t understand, but it’s not enough. “The last few weeks have been a
blur and very busy getting the family organized, getting Zain into school and arranging for them to attend English as a Second Language (ESL) classes, which will probably be in Cobourg and, at the same time, we’re trying to find accommodation,” said Emmanuelle. Kalil worked as an interior designer in Damascus and Anna is a journalist and wrote for a newspaper. They are both eager to find work here. “What they need first, though, is to learn English,” commented Sonny Lennon, co-chair of the Trent Hills Community Refugee Initiative. “Until there is a proficiency in English, it becomes a huge problem first of all with health and safety regulations and more.” Another task of the Initiative’s settlement committee is to find a twobedroom house or apartment for the family to live in. They are working with a limited budget. “We’d like to have them live in Campbellford because Zain is in school there and everything is in walking distance for all intents and purposes . . .and the hospital is there too,” Lennon explained. All of this is bittersweet for Anna and Kalil, who have family in Damascus, but they are determined to move forward here. “We need to say thank you to all of the community in Trent Hills because so many people are helping us and my family and children to have a new life,”
said Anna. Trudeau who made changes to make it go to: https://www.facebook.com/ “And we want to thank the government better for us.” Trent-Hills-Community-Refugeeespecially (Prime Minister Pierre) To follow the family on Facebook, Initiative-1510071869290041

Magnificent pipe organ concert coming to St. John’s United Church in Tweed By Brett Mann
Tweed – The impressive pipe organ at St. John’s United Church in Tweed will be 100 years old this year, and the church is celebrating with an organ recital at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 30. Guest performers will include Reverend John Utley, an organist at St. Michael’s Church in Belleville, and Tibor Csaszar, organist at St. Peter’s Church in Trenton. The grand pipe organ was purchased in November 1916 from the Canada Pipe Organ Company in St. Hyacinthe, Quebec, and re-tubed in 1954 by the firm of Casavant Freres, which continues to service it. The original purchase price was $2,150. “There’s none other in the village or in the area that can compare to it,” said Evan Morton, Curator of the Tweed Heritage Centre and himself an accomplished organist. St. John’s Council member Evelyn Millar noted that, as at a previous recital in 2014, the program will include a variety of music, including classical, sacred as well as popular and show tunes. Millar was
happy with the audience turnout for the last recital. “Last time we did okay,” Millar said. “A lot of people who attended wanted to know when were going to do it again, so that’s a good sign.” Millar explained that a short history of the acquisition of the organ was found in a small booklet, “A History of St. John’s United Church, 1857-1967” written by church member Grace Porritt as a Canadian centenary project. “Council decided to re-print the booklet next year in honour of the 160th anniversary of St. John’s,” said Millar. She said the recital will be a little bit over an hour long, with a break for refreshments. The pipe organ remains in use in St. John’s weekly services, often with church member Shirley Sills at keyboard. Reverend Utley, as well as serving as one of two organists at St. Michael’s Catholic Church in Belleville, was also the organist at Christ Church. Tibor Casczar was organist and choir director at St. John’s in Tweed before his move to Trenton. “Music has always been a big part of our congregation,” Millar said.
St. John’s United Church Council members Jean McMaster and Evelyn Millar, with granddaughter Emma, stand in front of the 100 year-old pipe organ St. John’s purchased in 1916 for $2,150. The church is holding a pipe organ recital on Sunday, Oct. 30, at 1:30 pm. An admission fee of $10 will go toward the maintenance of the organ. Brett Mann/Metroland

Warkworth – The annual vintage and costume jewellery show and sale held by the Trent Hills Grannies for Africa (THGFA) was a record-setting event this year, said Lyn De La Cour. “The Grannies are excited to report that the recent fundraising show was an overwhelming success,” she said. “It is astonishing that $7,000, a record, was raised in our small village, which can be attributed mostly to the continuing encouragement and generosity of donors who raid their keepsake boxes each year . . . for without your contributions, this event simply could not, would not, exist.” The show and sale raises money for The Stephen Lewis Foundation’s work in subSaharan Africa, where grandmothers are raising children of their children as well as orphans whose parents have died of HIV/ AIDS. “Support for the Trent Hills Grannies is expressed in other ways too, and it is with gratitude the Grannies thank those who helped on the day, setting up tables,
running to the store, baking an enormous bag of dinner rolls, waiting tables,” said De La Cour. “Your helpfulness ensured that the day ran smoothly. Thanks as well to our own Brenda Partridge for managing the excellent community information email. All of these acts of kindness helped make the 2016 jewellery show and sale so wonderfully successful.” For De La Cour and the other Grannies, the support of their customers and friends “who always know where a bargain is to be found,” she said, is something they appreciate. She described them as, “happy, cheerful and gleeful gem hunters who appreciate the beautifully displayed treasures,” on the many tables. “Where would we be without you?” she commented. “The Trent Hills Grannies for Africa salute you.” The Grannies already are thinking about next year’s trove of vintage and costume jewels and accessories. De La Cour said that gently used handbags were a big hit when they were first introduced, offering styles “from the designer to the fun and fanciful,” as part of the collection of items.

COBOURG -- Cobourg is slated to be home of a cookie manufacturer. Currently manufacturing in Warkworth, the Sprucewood Handmade Cookie Company has plans to build a 4,608-square-foot location at Ontario and McGuire streets in Cobourg, said Mark Pollard, founder and owner of Sprucewood. Recent success, including being named official cookie for the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Games, has meant a growth phase for the company, Pollard said at the Sept. 19 Cobourg council meeting. “We have outgrown our current space,” he said. Once the new facility is built, the company plans to hire eight to 10 people in full-time jobs, he said. The building will include baking space and a retail outlet store. Pollard hopes the business can become an agrifood destination. Councillors were generally in favour of the new building. “I am glad you picked our community,” said Councillor Brian Darling. “I think this is going to be an asset to the community.” The plan submitted includes the construction of a two-storey building at the northeast corner of Ontario and McGuire. The ground floor will be used for an artisan bakery and accessory showroom/sales space, and a residential apartment unit is on the second floor. Plans are in the works for developing a glutenfree line of cookies, which will be manufactured on the second floor, replacing the apartment at a later date, said Abel Branco, architect for the building. Council approved the site plan application at the Sept. 19 meeting. Construction began on Oct. 3.

Quinte Conservation experts “very happy” with the state of Stoco Lake
Tweed – There is good news about Stoco Lake this month. “Our results find that the lake is warm and very healthy,” said Tim Trustham, ecologist and planner with Quinte Conservation. Trustham along with Brad McNevin, Manager of Watershed Science and Monitoring recently reported on the findings of a study of Stoco Lake at a meeting of a lake planning group.
Friends of Stoco Lake, Quinte Conservation and the Municipality of Tweed are partners in the project to monitor and improve the quality of the lake. The study was carried out between May and August of this year, and consisted of sampling wetland plants, monitoring tributary water chemistry, trapnet fishing, studies of bird and amphibian breeding populations and studying benthic invertebrates. These, Trustham said, are tiny
creatures in the sediment which eat zoo plankton and “tell you quickly whether you have good or bad water quality.” All these indicators suggested a healthy lake, they reported. Seventeen species of fish and 37 types of wetland plant life were observed, as well as a “tremendous number of frogs, turtles and marsh obligate birds,” said Trustham. Because of arsenic depositions from upstream in Deloro, Stoco Lake has had more intense water sampling than anywhere else in the area, but the heavy metal sinks to the bottom and is covered by newer sediment and does not pose a risk unless it is disturbed. Cadmium, another heavy metal, was found in larger quantities at the inlet and outlets of Stoco Lake, but these substances occur naturally in the bedrock and leach out into watercourses. Phosphorus levels were within acceptable ranges. These fluctuate
and reflect organic matter entering the water from farmers’ fields, septic systems, overflow from storm drains and sewage lagoons as well as wildlife. Trustham noted that four Canada geese equal one cow in their capacity to pollute the water. When nitrous oxide from air pollution is added, phosphorus becomes a driver of dangerous blue-green algae blooms. Community Development Manager Rachelle Hardesty attended the meeting and reported with satisfaction, “Our beach was not closed down once this year.” Invasive species were included in the study. “Globally, we do not have pristine ecosystems, because humans have monkeyed around with every corner,” Trustham said. Typically, non-native invasive species such as zebra mussels show explosive growth initially, then exhaust the resources they need and their numbers collapse,
bringing them into balance with other species. The authors of the study concluded, “This sampling was a ‘snap-shot,’ but no parameters triggered major concerns.” Vicky McCulloch of Friends of Stoco Lake was pleased with the results. “This was the first reporting on the state of the lake,” McCulloch said. “Next, we’ll take all the information we’ve collected over the past year and develop a direct plan. We hope to have a public version of that plan out in the spring sometime, then finalize the plan in the summer and move into implementing the actions.” Some of these actions, such as shore line restoration, already have begun. The study results encourage McCulloch and her group that they are on the right track. “Overall, it was a pretty goodnews story,” she said.

Drought impacts Campbellford pumpkin contest By Sue Dickens
Campbellford – Drought conditions in the region impacted the annual pumpkin contest held in Campbellford on Saturday, Oct. 8. Especially hard-hit was the category for heaviest pumpkin. First prize this year went to John Osterlee’s entry, which weighed in at only 74 pounds. Osterlee had the winning entry last year with a pumpkin that weighed 143 pounds. Winning pumpkins weighed much more in years when rain was plentiful. The first place prize in 2011 went to David Dudley whose pumpkin weighed in at 1,125.5 pounds. “We didn’t know if we would have anything because of the drought,” commented Lois Bennett. “We didn’t expect to have any large pumpkins at all.” She and her husband, Glenn, have been organizing the contest since it started in 1984. The Osterlee family took the top three prizes this year, with Abe Osterlee earning second place with a 62-pound pumpkin and Suzanne Osterlee winning third with a 54-pound pumpkin. With scarecrows, sunflower heads, zucchini, squash and painted, decorated and carved pumpkins, the contest continue to have its appeal for all ages, and has grown in popularity thanks to the efforts of the Campbellford and District Horticultural Society. “We have 30 to 35 entries this year,” said Lois, who watched as the judges sampled the entries in the pie category. Paul Martin donned a chef ’s hat and joined Julie and Steve Adams for the official pie tasting, savouring every delicious Payton Greenly hugs her painted pumpkin after winning first prize in the ages 3 to 6 cat- moment. egory at the annual pumpkin contest presented by the Campbellford and District HortiFirst prize for the best tasting cultural Society and Sharpe’s Food Market on Saturday, Oct. 8. Sue Dickens/Metroland pie went to Michelle Watson and
second prize to her 9-year-old daughter Hannah. The family also won first prize in the individual scarecrow category (all ages), a fun family project. Even dad Dan Watson took home second prize in the best decorated pumpkin category (ages 14+). Suzanne Osterlee beat him out taking first prize. The Gallant family of Campbellford took home a number of prizes, too. Connor Gallant won second place for his carved pumpkin and third prize in the painted pumpkin category, both in the ages 7 to 9 category. In the ages 3-6 division, Sam Gallant won second prize for his painted pumpkin while Jason Gallant won third prize. Other winners included Payton Greenly (first prize, painted pumpkin, ages 3 to 6); Wade Rowe (first prize, painted pumpkin, ages 7 to 9); Madison James (first prize, painted pumpkin, ages 10 to 13) and Suzanne Osterlee (first prize, painted pumpkin, ages 14 and over). “We are forever thankful for Sharpe’s Food Market help in sponsoring this fun event,” said Lois. Sharpe’s provided a loonie for each child under 14. “We were also thankful for the expertise shown by Adam Haley of Stirling with his ongoing demonstration of sculpturing a pumpkin. And of course a special thank you to all who participated in spite of the showers.

Be My Guest hosts annual Thanksgiving charity dinner By Sue Dickens
Campbellford - Thanksgiving Monday was a special day at Be My Guest Family Restaurant in Campbellford, as the owners hosted their seventh annual charity dinner. Money raised will go to The Bridge Hospice in Warkworth.
Each year, the Papaioannou family, which owns the restaurant, chooses a different organization to raise money for. Last year it was shared between the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation (for the digital mammography unit) and The Bridge Hospice in Warkworth.
Andrew Papaioannou (front left) and his older brother Kostas had help serving their restaurant’s seventh annual Thanksgiving charity dinner from members of the Campbellford Lions Club and the Masonic Lodge, Campbellford. Sue Dickens/Metroland
“Every year, we give to different charities,� said Kostas Papaioannou. “We want to do something for the community.� He co-owns the restaurant with his younger brother Andrew and father Phil. “We like to do something to say thank you,� Papaioannou added. The owners and staff prepared the dinner, greeted guests, and received help from volunteers to make the event a success. Close to 600 pounds of turkey was prepared for the occasion. The hot turkey dinners were served at 11 a.m. and the event continued throughout the day. Some years, the family has served as many as 500 meals and raised as much as $3,000. This year the money was earmarked for Community Living Campbellford/Brighton’s Outcomes Sponsorship Fund. “Today wouldn’t have been possible without the support of local businesses, including Giant Tiger, Sharpe’s Food Market, Dooher’s Bakery (and) Findley Foods,� said Papaioannou. The final total raised by the dinner was not available by press time.

Havelock – Volunteers in Havelock and Norwood are gearing up for Meet Your Needs Day. The Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Community Centre will play host on Tuesday, Oct. 25, and St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Norwood opens its doors Wednesday, Oct. 26, for the free events, which offer a selection of clothing items for children and adults and other household products. The events run from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m.. In the past, the event has drawn large crowds. Partners for the local events include Havelock-Belmont-Methuen and Asphodel-Norwood, as well as the United Way of Peterborough, Peterborough Public Health, Peterborough County and the City of Peterborough’s Social Services Division. People will be able to pick up free children’s and adult clothing, shoes and boots, household items, personal hygiene products, toys and other free products. Local Meet Your Needs organizers first partnered with the Community Social Plan and Kawartha Food Share in 2013, shifting their events from Saturday to mid-week. They were rewarded by heavy traffic through venues in both communities. Havelock’s Meets Your Needs Day
was originally held in the Havelock Baptist Church basement. “It has helped with the fact that we have new stuff to give away and extra used stuff, too,� Havelock organizer Connie Benjamin said at the time. “It surprised me the amount of people who came on Wednesday.� To make a donation in Norwood, call Mary at 705-639-8956; in Havelock, call Connie 705-778-5162.

Warkworth fire station repairs cost $14,005 more than expected By John Campbell
Trent Hills – The municipality will spend $14,005 more than it had planned to repair damage to the fire hall in Warkworth caused when a pumper truck struck the east wall. Insurance will pay $14,604 of the overall cost of $48,609. The municipality will redirect $20,000 it had earmarked for a command centre trailer in its 2016 fire department capital budget to cover the cost of the deductible, and it will use $14,005 in the department’s reserve to increase the width of the door from 12 feet to 14 feet. Fire Chief Tim Blake said in his report to council that widening the entrance and “securing the front of the building to the roofing component

with steel posts and a solid beam” are safety measures “that will mitigate future damage from vehicles, as well as allow for growth of the station.” The additional work is a change to the original building and therefore not covered by insurance, he said. However, Trent Hills will spend far less than expected to update a road needs study last done in 2009. It had budgeted $55,000 for the work, but the winning, and only, bid by Greer Galloway Engineers was for $15,320. Assistant public works manager Chris Tye said in a report that an update on road conditions is needed. “(Without it) it is more difficult for staff to administer an effective road repair and re-construction program, the ability to obtain funding will be diminished, and a document will not be available to defend budgeting decisions,” Tye stated. The original assessment cost $120,000, so all the basic work is done, public works manager Neil Allanson said recently in explaining to council why the cost was much cheaper this time around. Mayor Hector Macmillan said the number one complaint he gets about gravel roads is spring breakup. “This is a way of life to a certain extent,” he said. “We can’t surface treat every road in the municipality, but we do look at them and add them to the inventory as time goes on (and) where it absolutely makes financial sense to do it. “There are opportunities where we can tar and chip specific parts of roads without having to do all of them.” The municipality is “moving that way with the road needs study and asset management plan,” Allanson said. He said the study and the service delivery review his department has started is expected to provide valuable information for council to consider.

HBM ward system stays for 2018 election “I’ve had a lot of conversations with people,” he said. “My only concern is, (is) the community allowed to be engaged?” Since last fall’s public meeting, they really “haven’t heard a lot,” he said. “Maybe that’s because the subject hasn’t come to the surface.” The major village ward complaint is they can’t vote for township ward candidates and vice versa, Gerow said. “I caught a lot of flak from village ward residents,” he said. “Why aren’t they here telling us this? I’m confused. I don’t have a
Havelock – There will be no changes to the Havelock-Belmont-Methuen ward system for the 2018 election. Councillors voted 3-1 to retain the ward system as currently configured. HBM has a Havelock and Township ward with one councillor elected from each, plus three members elected at-large: mayor, deputy-mayor and councillor-atlarge. In the 2014 election, there were 7,548 registered voters – 6,613 in the township ward and 935 in the village. Last fall, council held a public meeting on the ward system. It generated lively discussion and a variety of opinions. Council deferred any decisions and, after this summer’s cottage association meetings, there appears to be no desire to make changes. “Our system is not broke; we work very well together,” said Village Ward Councillor Barry Pomeroy who tabled the motion to retain the current system. Pomeroy noted that, in Peterborough County, only Asphodel-Norwood has eliminated the ward system. “It works throughout the rest of the county, except for AsphodelNorwood,” Pomeroy said. “The city has a ward system. Can you see anything wrong with it?” Township Ward Councillor David Gerow doesn’t feel that way. Gerow, who voted against the motion, said the vast majority of people he has spoken to want a change. He said some thought they were being discriminated against because they couldn’t vote for other candidates. Mayor Ron Gerow says he’s heard Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Township Ward Councillor David Gerow varying comments from residents. voted against a motion to retain the current ward system.

clue what people in HBM want. My position today is, I don’t have enough information to make a decision.” Gerow didn’t vote on the motion. “A lot of it is education,” said Deputy-Mayor Jim Martin. “We all take part in the whole of the township, and I think you’re getting pretty good representation. I don’t think we need to talk about it anymore this term.” “A lot of people who complained basically don’t like the result of the last election,” added councillor-atlarge Hart Webb.

Havelock mayor optimistic about Miles of Memories solution By Bill Freeman
Havelock – Havelock-BelmontMethuen Mayor Ron Gerow is “very optimistic” an alternative parking area will be ready on Miles of Memories Road for next year’s Belmont Lake boating season. Parking congestion along the road leading to Belmont Lake and a public boat launch and swim area has reached potentially dangerous levels. This is particularly noticeable on holiday weekends, as the road has become an increasingly busy township destination. The municipality is in the process of preparing an enforceable parking bylaw for Miles of Memories Road and will also designate restricted parking areas, with the bylaw giving officials the power to tow away illegally parked cars. Some residents point to cottagers with island properties as being perennial offenders when it comes to leaving vehicles and trailers parked along the road. In an effort to ease the problem, the municipality would like to find prop-
erty that can be converted into offroad private parking for vehicles and boat trailers. A recent meeting with Gerow, township officials and some area residents interested in finding an off-road parking solution went well, Gerow said. He said they have identified an area “that we’re looking at in the future.” He wasn’t prepared to identify the individuals or the exact location, but said there will be another meeting as soon as the leaves are off the trees so they can take a closer look at the potential site. “I’m very optimistic we’ll have something in place as an alternative parking area,” he said. “It looks good.” If things turn out positively, the property will be prepared and ready for parking next summer. Meanwhile, public works manager Brian McMillan continues to work on restricted parking for Miles of Memories Road. Lowering the speed limit on the road from the posted 80 kph is also something council has discussed. They are also working with the OPP.
Havelock council seeks interest on reviving HBM youth committee By Bill Freeman
Havelock – Is there interest in reviving a youth committee in HavelockBelmont-Methuen? That’s a question councillors asked while discussing after-hours community use of Havelock Belmont Public School by non-profit groups. Billed as free for non-profits, an insurance fee is still required for groups that don’t have coverage and that puzzled council. If council were to appoint youth committee, insurance coverage would fall under the umbrella of the municipality’s policy. The other alternative, as council has learned, is for a non-profit group to use a credit card to cover the approximately $20 insurance fee. The KPR’s Community Use of Schools Program is promoted as free for non-profit groups. “It’s still not free,” Mayor Ron Gerow said after learning of the $20 charge. The school board will provide all sorts of equipment to groups who want to use the school after hours, township CAO Pat Kemp says, but is clear about the insurance. “It just shocks me that you have to pay insurance every time you use it,” said Kemp. A township-sanctioned youth com-
mittee would avoid that charge because it would fall under the municipality’s insurance policy. When the previous youth committee dissolved, it left $3,703 in reserve, said Kemp. Gerow said he would love to see a youth group formed, but that it shouldn’t be left to council. “That should not happen,” he said. “Council should not be driving a youth committee. It should be parents and people interested in extracurricular activities for kids. If there’s a group in the community, we’d be more than willing to work with them. ‘We’ll do our part, (but)we’ve got far more on our plate now than before.” “I think these organizations are better off kept at arm’s length from council,” added Councillor Hart Webb. “Let them do their thing and, if they need our help, let them come here.” If council gets into the business of forming a youth committee it means they’re “not paying attention to the things they should be paying attention to,” said Webb. Deputy Mayor Jim Martin was involved in the last youth committee. If a committee is created he hopes the reserve money is spent wisely. A lot of work went into raising funds, he said. “It was for the kids, and that’s the big point,” the Mayor said.
NOTICE OF STUDY COMMENCEMENT Detail Design for the Replacement of the Rawdon Creek Bridge Highway 62 (G.W.P. 4044-10-00) THE PROJECT The Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO) and McIntosh Perry Consulting Engineers Ltd. (MPCE) are preparing detail design and class environmental assessment study for the replacement of Rawdon Creek Bridge and Highway 62 improvements in the Municipality of Centre Hastings within Hastings County as shown on the key map below. The project includes the replacement of Rawdon Creek Bridge, realignment of approximately 800m of Highway 62 and pavement rehabilitation, culvert improvements and roadside safety improvements within the Highway 62 corridor from Wilson Road to north of the Ridge/Moira Rd. intersection. BACKGROUND The Rawdon Creek Bridge replacement and Highway 62 realignment project is part of a larger study to improve the operational and safety conditions of the intersection of Highway 62 and Moira/ Ridge Road. A Transportation Environmental Study Report (TESR) was prepared as part of the preliminary design process and placed on public review for a 30-day period (December, 2014). As a result, the MTO was granted Environmental Clearance for the technically preferred solution to be carried out in two phases. Phase 1, which is being addressed under the current project, includes the Rawdon Creek Bridge replacement and Highway 62 improvements from Wilson Road to north of the Ridge/Moira Road Intersection. Phase 2 of the project, to be carried out at a later date, will include Highway 62 and Ridge/Moira Road intersection improvements. THE PROCESS This detail design is following an approved planning process for a Group “B” project under the Class Environmental Assessment for Provincial Transportation Facilities (2000). This will include an assessment of potential impacts of the bridge replacement and highway improvements on the local environment and address any concerns raised during the consultation process. A Design and Construction Report will be prepared detailing the existing biophysical and socio-economic environment, design features, potential impacts of the undertaking, and required mitigation measures. Construction is anticipated to take place in the 2017 construction season funding dependant.

Why Should I Have My
Wisdom teeth, so-called because they are the last teeth to emerge after childhood, usually erupt from ages 16 to 18, when people are considered “wiser” or more mature. Located at the back of the jaw, wisdom teeth are also referred to as the “third molars”. It is often advised that wisdom teeth are removed. Impacted or sideways wisdom teeth can be painful and cause infection as they try to erupt into the mouth. Cysts can sometimes form around impacted wisdom teeth, putting bone and the jaw at risk. Wisdom teeth may also only partially erupt, irritating gums and making proper cleaning difficult.

Campbellford – Running in the Toronto Waterfront Marathon this Sunday, Oct. 16, two dedicated employees are going the extra miles to raise money for Community Living Campbellford/Brighton. Melissa Gillespie, supervisor of support and services, will be joining planning and intake coordinator Jill Thurston for this annual event, which allows participants to register and raise money for any of the dozens of charities listed, one of which is Community Living. “We knew the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon was happening because we had received some information on it,” said Thurston. “And all the funds we raise will stay here.” She said there are other Community Living teams from other areas participating as well. The two women have never done anything like this before, so it will be
“All the funds we raise will stay here.” a new challenge for them. The women will be doing the 5-km run. “We’re going to give it a good try,” said Thurston. “Melissa has actually done the half marathon before. Each of us has a personal goal to try to raise $100, but we are aiming for $500 overall. We are always looking for ways to fundraise, and this is a great opportunity to do just that.” The money will go to the Community Living Campbellford/Brighton outcome sponsorship fund. “People can apply to this fund if they need financial assistance to achieve their personal outcomes and realize their goals,” Thurston explained. To donate, call 705-653-1821, ext 231.

Norwood Nemesis’ search for elusive first win continues By Bill Freeman
Norwood – It was a tough Thanksgiving weekend for the Norwood J.J. Stewart Nemesis as they continued their search for their first Canadian Premier Junior Hockey League win. The Nemesis (0-6-0) fell 8-1 in Maxville to the Glengarry Highlanders (4-2-0) on Oct. 8 then ran out of gas against the Easter Division leading O-Town Rebels (5-1-0) at the AsphodelNorwood Community Centre losing 9-3. The short-staffed Nemesis were outshot 60-21 on home ice but actually knotted the score at 3-3 with a 42-second flurry of offence early in the second period that produced three goals from Kyle Thomson, Kyle Ross and Owen Walsh with assists to Norwood’s leading scorer Garrett Ouellette and Ross.
The visiting Rebels with 14 skaters on the bench seized control in the final 11 minutes of the second firing in a trio of goals. They added three more in the third to make it 9-3. Jordan Legros led the Rebels with a hat trick. Colin Husovic and Liam Austin shared the goaltending for Norwood. The hometown Sharpshooters jumped out to a 2-0 first period lead then fired in six in the second before Ouellette broke the shutout. The CPJHL’s leading scorer Felix Stephen led the Sharpshooters with three goals. The Nemesis will continue to look for that elusive first win Oct. 16 when they host the Jr. Sharpshooters. They travel to Ottawa Oct. 22.
Campbellford Rebels’ losing streak Walsh tops A flight in final for Oak Hills ladies golf stretches to six games to open season The Oak Hills ladies golf league recently wrapped up its 2016 season with a scramble and awards dinner. The Shirley Baldwin Award for Most Improved Player was won by Greta Groves for an eight-stroke improvement in her handicap. Honourable mention went to Bernadette McInroy, Carol Muir, Jane Mott and Sandra Shaw for carding the best score (32) in the closeout scramble.
By John Campbell
Warkworth – Wins are proving elusive for the Campbellford Rebels, as they dropped their sixth straight game, losing 13-2 at home to the Napanee Raiders on Saturday, Oct. 8 in Empire B Junior C Hockey League play. It was the team’s worst drubbing of the young season, surrendering 70 shots while managing only 21 in reply. Riley Steeves scored twice and added five assists to lead the visitors to an easy win. The seven-point outburst propelled him into second place in scoring, with 17 points in the Provincial Junior Hockey League’s East Conference. Cam O’Rourke and Andrew White-Copego scored for Campbellford, which now has been outscored 48-9. A week earlier, the Rebels dropped a 5-1 decision to the Gananoque Islanders. Going 0-for-5 on the power play didn’t help their cause, nor did giving up two goals while playing shorthanded on nine occasions. Austin Vallier scored unassisted as the lone Rebel to make it on the score sheet. Brandon Soucy stopped 37 shots, the same number as his counterpart in the Islander net. No Rebel found the back of the net in the team’s 4-0 loss at Picton Sept. 29, as Campbellford was held to 16 shots while the home team was peppering Soucy with 39, including 21 in the first period when the Rebels managed only three in reply. Remarkably, the period ended in

but are ALL your ducks in a row?
a scoreless draw. Picton broke through for two goals in the second and two more in the third. Again, a lack of success on the power play proved Campbellford’s undoing, as the team failed in six opportunities. Picton scored once in four tries while holding the man advantage. Campbellford sits last in the conference’s Tod Division, while the Napanee Raiders and the Port Hope Panthers lead the the pack with identical records of 7-0-0 and 14 points. The Rebels host the Amherstview Jets this Saturday. Game time is 7:30 p.m.

Allen named president and CEO of YMCA of CEO By Chris Malette
Gone for good is the title ‘interim CEO’ for Dave Allen. Friday, the YMCA of Central East Ontario made it official – Allen is the Y’s choice for president and chief executive officer of the YMCA of CEO, as it’s known. Calling the official appointment a privilege and an honour, Allen was himself lauded by the chairman of the board of the charitable organization – which counts YMCA facilities in Belleville, Quinte West and Peterborough under its administrative wing – and a long list of staffers who gathered for the announcement. “David’s leadership, his ability to create strong community relationships, his commitment and dedication to the YMCA and this community, as well as his operational expertise, has been key to the success of our YMCA,” said board chair John Mastorakos. Allen had been acting as president and CEO of the region’s YMCAs since 2015 when former CEO Bob Gallagher, working out of the Peterborough YMCA, was promoted to Ottawa to head the National Capital Region division of YMCA. He relished the role, but said the last several weeks while a search was on to replace Gallagher had been a “pressure cooker.” Mastorakos said it was not a slam dunk that the Y board, locally, was going to automatically choose Allen as the successor, but noted that Allen had been selected in a ranked, vetted process that heard from applicants from across the YMCA community, nationally. “The YMCA staff,” said an effusive Allen addressing the ceremony Friday, “are the people who make me look
good. They’re the ones who make this place run.” Allen took a moment to praise not only staff and volunteers at the Y – a constant mantra for a man whose professional career has been shaped in the Y organization since his early days in 1981 as a camp counsellor in Peterborough – but to issue a “gold membership – the first ever” to tireless Y member, board member, fundraiser and volunteer Bill Yeotes. As staff took the floor to praise Allen, one by one at Friday’s announcement, it was summed by YMCA Quinte West general manager Rod Riddel, who said “There are few people as dedicated to the YMCA mission as Dave Allen.” Allen said while continuing to strive for increasing and improving on the record of charitable inclusion for the less fortunate to enjoy all that the Y offers, he is making the construction of a new YMCA in Belleville his priority. “There is no question, this city needs a new YMCA and it will be our mission to ensure we build one that this city and its people deserve,” said Allen in closing. Though a site selection process and capital campaign have yet to begin, Allen has been busily working behind the scenes to scope out both. Seven years ago, Quinte West built a state-of-the-art YMCA near Highway 401 off Glen Miller Road and its operation is shared – to great success, noted Mayor Jim Harrison – with the municipality. A couple years prior to that, YMCA Peterborough embarked on a massive capital campaign to build a modern, spacious Y for that city, as well and Allen sees the only natural completion of the troika to be a new YMCA for Belleville. “We’ll get it done,” he vowed.
Dave Allen was named president and CEO of YMCA for East CantralOntario Friday, Oct. 7, encompassing YMCAs in Peterborough, Quinte West and Belleville. Chris Malette/Metroland
Allen, a Peterborough native, began his career there, but moved on to hold various management positions with the YMCA in Ottawa while continuing his education there, later becoming the CEO at the YMCA in
Sault Ste. Marie and served 12 years as regional director for the YMCA of Belleville and Quinte, before assuming the role of vice president of operations for YMCA of Central East Ontario in 2012 under Gallagher.
Having lived in Belleville and integrated himself into the community, Allen said he and his family will continue to reside here, as well, making the Belleville YMCA his home base of operations for the region.

Suicide Bereavement Group is a place for healing and understanding By Terry McNamee
Belleville - Evan Hill was a typical, outgoing teenager. He played sports, had a girlfriend, was popular, was happy and seemed to be having a great life — until one day he hanged himself from a hydro tower. “He was only 17 years old,” said his mother, Shelley. “He had his whole life (awaiting him).” His father, Jayme, says it’s not always the kid you think is at risk who becomes suicidal. Sometimes the happy, outgoing ones are that way because they are really good at hiding feelings that make them think the only solution is to end it all. It’s difficult for parents to accept that they missed seeing that their child was in so much pain, but those who have joined Belleville’s Suicide Bereavement Support Group soon come to realize that it is not their fault, and that the signs may not have been there for them or anyone else to see. Sharing their stories with others who have lost a family member to suicide helps them cope, helps them find ways of dealing with their terrible loss and helps them realize that they do not have to shoulder the burden alone. “It’s a place where you can go and talk, and people know what you mean,” said Rob Dafoe. He and his wife, Jennifer, lost their son, Brock, to suicide. Talking about their loss is hard — not because these families don’t want to talk about it, but because friends don’t want to listen. “They feel that they have to say something,” said Glen Brooks. He said people don’t know what to say, so they say nothing and avoid the subject altogether. “They just ignore you and tune you out,” he said. “If you happen to mention it, they change the subject.” “Some people won’t even talk to you,” said his wife, Shelley. The Brooks lost their son as well. This group, which is hosted by the Hastings and Prince Edward Branch of the Canadian
Mental Health Association, meets regularly in Belleville. All agreed it has been an enormous help to meet with other families who have suffered the same kind of loss. “We need this group because it’s safe here,” said Linda Phillips, whose husband committed suicide. “We can be ourselves.” They all find things in common, but also learn from each other. They find out how other people have dealt with their loss, whether it’s by visiting the place where the person died or finally realizing that their child or husband is no longer in pain. “I’m at peace with what my son did, because I know he is at peace,” said Brock’s mother. Like some of the others, she has felt the presence of her son on occasion. “It comforts me,” she said quietly. They all agreed that the best part of the group is having people who will listen and who are supportive. Just knowing the group is there is a comfort, and meeting regularly gives them strength, especially when they are having a bad People who have lost a family member or close friend to suicide are finding comfort and day. Meetings can be sad, but there is much healing at the Suicide Bereavement Support Group, which meets regularly in Belleville. laughter, too, as they tell stories of those they Some of those who attended the Sept. 27 meeting included, from left, Jennifer Dafoe, have lost. Glen Brooks, Rob Dafoe, Shelley and Jayme Hill and Marilyn Brooks. “We’ve all got broken hearts, but but there’s Terry McNamee/Metroland always laughter,” said Marilyn. “When you lose a child, it’s one heck of a long time before you can laugh.” The Suicide Bereavement program lasts eight weeks and includes three facilitators. After the formal program is ended, reunions are held monthly at 41 Octavia St. in Belleville. It is open only to family members or close friends of the person who died.

Child protection discussed at County Council By Jack Evans
Purple is the colour for October, Children’s Aid Society officials are promoting. In a presentation to Hastings County Council Thursday, Teri- Ann MacDonald of the Highland Shores CAS outlined how the agency is trying to promote purple as the colour of focus during October, which is also being designated as Child Abuse Prevention Month. Other events include Go Purple Day on Oct. 19, with colourful purple ribbons available to wear on that day and purple hockey games across the agency’s three counties on specific dates, listed on its website. She said the society continues to combat a public perception that a call to the CAS leads to family breakup. Instead, she argued, “a call to Chil-
dren’s Aid will lead to an offer of help that can often make all the difference to children, youth and families.” “ Children,” she said , “remain with families in 97 per cent of CAS investigations. Early intervention by the CAS can include counselling, parenting programs and substance abuse treatment. A call can lead to a family being put in touch with community partners and many support services.” Warden Rick Phillips noted he is personally very supportive of the CAS as when he was six years old he became one of their wards and it was the best thing that ever happened to him. Council passed resolutions to proclaim all of the agency’s October programs - Child Abuse Prevention Month, October, National Foster Family Week, Oct. 16-22 and November as” Adoption Awareness Month.”

Low water conditions continue for Trent River valley By Erin Stewart
Trenton – Below normal rainfall over the past 6 months continues to impact the Trent River valley and bring very dry conditions. A level 2 Low Water Condition continues to remain in effect for most of the watershed region, including Trenton, Brighton, Grafton, Roseneath, Warkworth and Campbellford. A level 3 Low Water Condition remains in effect for the Township of Stirling-Rawdon and the Municipality of Centre Hastings. “September, October and November are typically the wettest months of the year. We need above normal precipitation through the rest of the fall to replen-
ish stream flows and groundwater levels,” said Janet Noyes, Manager – Watershed Science & Services, in a press release. Based on data from Environment Canada’s Trenton station, the average precipitation totals for April through September was 60 per cent of normal. August was the only month the region received above normal precipitation. The other five months have received between 30 and 60 per cent of normal monthly totals. “We continue to receive new reports from people with wells going dry,” said Noyes. “We urge individuals with low well water levels to investigate alternate water systems, such as a temporary outdoor storage tanks or permanent underground cisterns.” Levels of streams and creeks con-

tinue to be well below normal with the most severe low flows being re-
corded on Squires/Hoards, Rawdon, and Butler Creeks, ranging from 15 to 49 per cent of normal respectively. For the Townships of Stirling-Rawdon and Centre Hastings, residents in these level 3 areas are asked to reduce water use by 50 per cent. Under the level 2 conditions, residents, businesses, industries, and municipalities are asked to continue to reduce water use by at least 20 per cent. To assist with tracking the impacts of the drought, Lower Trent Conservation is encouraging individuals or businesses who are experiencing problems or hardships as a result of the dry conditions to contact them at 613-

Fosters present ‘More Stories From the Wild’
Noted filmmakers John and Janet Foster present More Stories from the Wild Oct. 17, hosted by the Friends of the Salmon River at the group’s AGM in Roblin. For more than 40 years, John and Janet Foster have been telling visual stories about Canada. Their filming assignments for CBC, TVOntario, and the Discovery Channel have taken them from coast to coast and into the High Arctic. Through their films and slide shows they have always shared their own passion for Canada’s wild places and the diversity of our wildlife. In this presentation, John and Janet share more stories, including wildlife adventures on their old farm and new discoveries they have made this year in Hastings County. According to organizers, these are local tales everyone can relate to, including funny and endearing rendezvous with wild turkeys, deer, a barred owl, and many others with whom they share a rich rural habitat. “In Prince Edward County, travel with us through dramatic snow squalls,
wintering swans and geese, and icy lakeshores. You will see a video of sunrise, mist, and swans at Wellington Harbour on a cold, -20C January morning and learn how the Fosters captured the very images they had envisioned,” said a release promoting the event. The Fosters have directed and hosted many nature and wildlife programs for television, including the CBC series To the Wild Country and Wild Canada. For photography buffs, there will be opportunities to discover nuances of technique from these seasoned experts. John Foster says, “One of the secrets we have learned for filming and photography is knowing exactly when to be there.” More Stories from the Wild will be followed by the Friends of Salmon River AGM on Monday, October 17 at 6:30 pm at Roblin Wesleyan Church, 3100 County Road 41, in Roblin. Entry is free for current FSR members or $5 for non-members. For information, contact Susan at susan@moorepartners. ca or 613-379-5958. Also see friendsofsalmonriver.ca

Crystals, herbs, readings – all at wellness show Oct. 22 Batawa – Healing is something that most people don’t talk about, but everybody wants. “We all need some kind of healing in our lives,” says Rob Petho, coorganizer of the Healing Light Wellness and Crystal Show to be held October 22, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Batawa Community Centre. “Whether it’s for an aching body, a stressed mind or just a boost for the spirit, healing can make us feel better.” The show will have 23 practitioners and vendors at the centre offering various types of mini-readings and healing sessions for a small fee. Admission to the event is free and there will be lunch offered for sale by Batawa Seniors Unlimited. There will also be several vendors with stones, minerals and crystals to help with the healing process. “Stones have a unique vibration.” Petho adds. “They are great healers.” The vendors come from a wide area including Quinte West, Belleville, Stirling, Tweed, Marmora and Bancroft. One vendor, Ellen Williams, recently held a “Wellness By the Water” show at the Tweed Pavilion and was delighted with the turnout. “We had a great show,” she smiled. “People are really interested in finding out about various healing methods.” Some of the mini-sessions avail-
able at the Batawa show include crystal Reiki by Alexandria Barker of Quinte West, numerology by Wendy Newman-Stille of Belleville, spiritual healing and medium readings by Shirley Moy of Belleville, intuitive art and portraits by Rebecca Drake of Marmora, and meditation and intuitive healing by Vikki Langelier of Quinte West. Monique Allore from Tweed offers a twist on the healing sessions by combining her natural attunement to shamanic work. As well as being a counsellor, she can tune into the an-
cient shamans and offer their magical insight wherever needed. Sonia Landry from Quinte West is a life coach and also makes beautiful smudging tools to clear out negativity from people, places and things. Alissa Brennan, also from Quinte West, brings her handmade essential oils, each to soothe a type of illness. Vendors offering their specialty in stones are George Thompson from Stirling and Erin Thomas from Belleville with their amazing knowledge of the hidden healing power of stones, rocks and minerals. George has been
a rock hound for years and has a table at many of the shows, as well as operating his dairy farm and skiing in Batawa with his son. Erin has also been studying the stones and has investigated their hidden properties for healing of body, mind and spirit. Practitioners are coming from all over, including Reverend Janice Chrysler from Marmora (spiritual coach, intuitive psychic), Janice Gannon (Shiatsu) from Stirling, and Reverend Rita Marie Browning from Bancroft (spirit reading and Tarot.) John Syme from Belleville will be of-
fering Matrix healing, Chuck Lane will offer mini-Reiki sessions, Jordanna DeHond has magical “Wands and Whimsy” with stones and crystals, Maia Heissler from Stockdale has her nature collections and Tracie Watson from Belleville will do teacup readings. Reverend Darcelle Runciman is from the Infinity Centre and Leigh Nash from Marmora offers Tarot and yoga. “It’s going to be a great show, especially for this area,” Petho adds. “We hope people just come and enjoy it.”
Sprague Foods lentil soup cracks major retail markets with help of Greenbelt Fund Belleville – Belleville-based Sprague Foods Ltd. received a $79,000 grant from the Greenbelt Fund in spring 2016 to invest in a new packaging machine and increase capacity. With the new system in place, Sprague is launching a new Organic Lentil Vegetable soup, made with Ontario ingredients. Best news for the near-centuryold company is its recent inclusion in product lines available at major retailers across Canada. The launch of the new organics line, and the Sprague Brand Organic
Lentil Vegetable Soup is in line with Sprague’s commitment to supporting local agriculture and Ontario’s economy, said the company in a release. Sprague applied to the Greenbelt Fund for support to help increase capacity to meet growing demand for nutritious, locally processed soups and beans. The investment has allowed Sprague to ramp up production by 100% and launch seven new projects. The project will increase local food sales by $1.6 million by 2017, a significant boost to the economy in Belleville and Prince Edward County.
“This is the biggest launch of any new product we’ve had in 91 years,” says Rick Sprague, president at Sprague Foods. Sprague is the fourth generation in the Sprague family to lead the business, specializing in 100% Canadian products. “We’ve had our first truckloads leave the facility and the new soup is now on the shelves.” The increased capacity at Sprague is bringing new growers to market as Sprague emphasizes the local flavour of its products. Sprague sources as many ingredients as possible from
Ontario, including from nearby Prince Edward County, where Sprague Foods began decades ago. “We’re thrilled to see Sprague reach this milestone,” said Burkhard Mausberg, CEO of the Greenbelt Fund. “Ontarians looking to support their local farmers and processors now have more options on the shelves to choose from, which is good for Ontario’s economy and rural communities.” The new Organic Lentil Vegetable Soup is now available in Costco stores across Canada.

My wife and I recently went on our very first river cruise, with AmaWaterways, and it was an incredible experience! Many of our friends had already told us about what a great experience a luxury river cruise was, so we decided to check it out for ourselves – and we’re certainly pleased that we did. We decided to choose AmaWaterway’s cruise on the Seine River from Paris to Normandy for this first river cruise, for I particularly wanted to visit Normandy so that I could get material for a “Remembrance Day” article (and that specific travel piece will follow next month). And AmaWaterways gave me the option of visiting either the American or Canadian landing beaches, so that choice was a real bonus for my research into Canada’s involvement and contribution on D-Day. Yet another reason that we decided to travel with AmaWaterways was learning that it was the only river cruise line inducted into La Chaine des Rotisseurs, a prestigious culinary organization, so this meant that we would be having great food during the voyage.
A luxury river cruise in France Indeed, we did! Not only were there delectable daily specials offered, but there were also wine pairings available at lunch and dinner – and these drinks were included at no additional cost (as were beer and soft drinks). Even caviar was served sometimes, too. You may say that French cuisine is tough to beat anyway, but these meals seemed particularly ‘special’. And if these choices weren’t enough to satisfy you, there was also another extraordinary dining option available, for you could decide to sign up for the “Chef’s Table” for the evening meal, served in a separate dining room, and here you could experience a great variety of tastings, with explanations by the chef himself. We, of course, had to sample that option one evening, as well as check out the captain’s “Gala Dinner” on another night. I also liked the fact that AmaWaterways offered a variety of levels of tours so that the individual passenger could choose his/her preferred pace (and these were all included at no extra charge). I also enjoyed the onboard entertainment, walking track, fitness room, television, free Wi-Fi, and

Our cruiseship was 110 metres long and 11 metres wide. the pampering massage service! Our actual cruise began in Paris, and we were whisked from the airport to the AmaLegro, our ship, via limousine (part of the service). That first evening, we actually cruised past the brightly lit Eiffel Tower, Paris’s renowned landmark, and then began our journey westward. Our first stop was at Vernon, where a short bus ride took us from the port to the quaint little village of Giverny. Here we toured artist Claude Monet’s garden and home. Monet lived and painted here for over 40 years, and his gardens appeared in more than 500 of his paintings (I was so impressed by this destination that I plan to write an entire article about this in a future travel piece). Our next stop was at Caudebec-en-Caux, the westernmost

1. Heating & Ventilation - Examine your fireplace and chimney system to ensure that no soot or creosote has collected. Any cracks or voids could potentially cause a fire. Before you turn the furnace or boiler on, replace the air filter and hire a professional to inspect the unit more thoroughly. These steps will improve the efficiency and life of your furnace and will ensure stable indoor air quality. 2. Seal Windows and Doors - If not properly sealed, windows and doors can be a major culprit for heat loss. To keep the warm air inside, inspect the weather-stripping around your home’s windows and doors for leaks, rot or decay. Repair or replace structural framing, and caulk inside and out, if necessary. 3. Insulate well - One of the easiest and most effective defenses against heat loss is proper insulation. Prevent cold drafts from entering and the loss of heated air through basement headers, which, when left exposed, can make your furnace work harder. Look for a moisture-resistant product offering high thermal performance, such as Roxul

Comfortbatt insulation. This type of mineral wool insulation makes installation simple. All that’s needed is a serrated blade or bread knife. Cut the batt to fit the cavity and press into place. The insulation will help improve energy efficiency as soon as it’s in place and provide savings over the lifetime of your home. Comfortbatt can also be used to top or replace old attic insulation. Aim for an R-50 or a depth of 16 inches. 4. Backyard Care - Save your property from potential damage by trimming overgrown trees and shrubs to prevent ice-laden branches from thrashing against electrical wires and your home’s exterior. Drain/shut off any exterior faucets and sprinkler systems to prevent freezing. Ensure rain or snow drains away from the house to avoid foundation problems. 5. Roof and Gutters - Inspect your roof for shingles that are warped, damaged or even missing to prevent a future leak. Use roofing cement and a caulking gun to seal joints where water could penetrate, such as around the chimney, skylights or vent pipes. Make sure that your gutters and downspouts are securely fastened. Downspouts should extend at least five feet away from the home to prevent flooding. When it comes to preventative maintenance, a little time and effort can save thousands in energy costs and repair bills over the lifetime of your home.

The Good Earth
Dan Clost Gentle Reader, I had the pleasure and honour to be included in the inaugural Speakers Series at the Quinte Botanical Gardens. (www.thegardenplace.ca) Folks, this is a massive project that will significantly change the tourist map in our area. Deanna Groves and John Reidl are the indefatigable duo (with the assistance of enthusiastic employees) behind the project. The next two columns will be a condensation of that presentation which focuses on gardening as we get older. Deanna is a sensitive soul and tampered with my original title, changing it to “Seniors Can Garden Too.” I much preferred, “Old People, Can You Dig It?” Hello seniors, we are gathered here on the day before National Seniors’ Day to talk about gardening;
Quinte Botanical Gardens, Part 1
but, we have a problem. Gardening hasn’t changed one whit since time was first measured and many of you look like you started gardening on the second tick of the clock meaning there’s not much new to cover. However, a few of us have changed just a titch over the decades and upon this happy thought hinges today’s conversation. That’s a deliberately chosen word (a pun for eldest daughter Ellyn.) The more we chat, the more we will get from our visit here today. I want to learn as much about oldster gardening as I can so that when I finally get old as you are, I’ll be prepared. I feel a bit like the preacher who has the need to demonstrate a classic education by trotting out an erudite quote to illustrate their knowledge. Over the years, while sitting in the pews, I recognized a few that were plucked, seemingly indiscriminately, from Bartlett’s Quotations but today, they’re more likely to come from the first on-line site that popped up on Google. Here is mine: Henry David Thoreau commented, “None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm.” And on that basis alone, which is sufficient, I’m happy to say that I don’t see any old people here today. We gathered here because we all love to garden- and look around at
where we are gathering- this is more than just a beautiful garden in the making, we are right smack dab in the middle of a beautiful dream. How exhilarating is that? Now that we’re all feeling good we do have to acknowledge while our gardening paradigm hasn’t shifted down to park, the clutch is slipping just a titch. I’m not in favour of terms like “down-sizing” or “cutting back”unless we’re talking about pruning. I’m not overly fond of terms like “easy” but I can wrap my mind around “simplify” because that’s almost Zen. I have two mottoes that I use daily. The practical one is, “What comes next?” No matter what it is that I am doing, something will follow. How can make what I am doing now fit “next”; next job, next person, next generation. A good example would be, “If I plant a bulb

what comes next?”Will it be a beautiful flower in the spring or will it be a squirrel as soon as I walk away? The second one is “Think, think again.” That’s why every garden should have a thinking bench- and it is helpful if the bench is situated about halfway from wherever it is you are to wherever it is you are going, especially if you’re carrying something. At the moment, the thinking exercise might focus on our love of gardening. Why do we do it? What do we

get from it? What would we miss the most if we had to stop? Conversely, what do we dislike about gardening? A simple thing like weeding might top some lists, others might include heavy tools, physical exertion, and time. Some will make both lists, e.g., pruning, dividing perennials and diggingin compost.

Fundraising for Belleville’s new MRI machine begins By Erin Stewart
Belleville – Fundraising arms from all four Quinte Health Care hospitals are working together to drum up more than $1 million for the refurbishment of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Machine to service the region. The Belleville General Hospital Foundation (BGHF), Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation (TMHF), Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital Foundation (PECMHF), and the North Hastings
Fund Development Committee (NHFDC) have launched the joint initiative - through the new Re-Imagine Campaign that will keep the vital diagnostic service in Belleville available. The existing BGH MRI machine had reached the end of its lifespan and all of its working parts, including the computer and software, must be replaced excluding the magnet, which will be re-installed resulting in a significant cost saving. “Our only goal is to make care the best it can be for

everyone who needs the services available at BGH,” BGHF Chair, Peter Knudsen said in a media release. “We are very pleased to join QHC’s other funding partners to provide the hospital with the new MRI. As business people we applaud the decision to reuse the existing magnet and save $1 million. As health care users we are excited about the many improvements to care the new MRI will make possible.”

Originally installed in 2008 and purchased through the Tri-County Healthcare Foundation’s Imagine Campaign, the MRI took over 9,290 images last year. The wait times to access QHC’s MRI machine are among the best in the province at nine days while the provincial target is 28, stated the release. Unlike many medical costs, the government does not fund equipment. It is expected the community finances the replacement of medical equipment through the work of hospital Foundations. “TMHF is committed to funding tomorrow’s health care today. In our ongoing support of the area’s MRI, the TMH Foundation is pleased to assist financially in the upgrade of this valuable diagnostic tool,” stated Phil Wild, chair of the TMH Foundation in the release. The Foundations are reaching out to patients and their families to pull out all the stops to raise just over $1 million for the replacement. BGHF’s fundraising goal is $481,000 or 47.35%, TMHF’s is $324,000 or 31.90% and the PECMHF’s goal is $170,000 or 16.79%. The NHFDC will use unrestricted funds to pay for its $40,000 or 3.96% share. Each portion was determined on a percentage of the number of patients in each catchment area who use the MRI. The Foundations rely on support for medical equipment needs at Belleville, Trenton, Prince Edward County and North Hastings Hospitals through gifts from community members.

Quinte Conservation fears future drought By Jack Evans
The end of summer does not necessarily mean the end of critical drought problems, Quinte Conservation officials agreed at its latest meeting. The meeting heard reports from staffer Christine McClure and General Manager Terry Murphy outlining continuing threats from the past hot, dry summer and speculating that things could become even worse next year. Murphy described his report as “what if ” and that included a similar situation from lack of ground and stream flow water, still at near record low levels. His recommendation, which readily carried in a vote, was to make a formal appeal to all municipal councils in the agency’s area to assign their staffs to prepare a drought emergency plan in preparation for a repeat or even potential continuation of the problems of the current year. Rainfall totals for July, August and even the current September are all sharply below normal at record or near-record low. Groundwater resources are critically low. Stream flows are the same. “We haven’ generated any power at the McCleod dam for the past three months,” said Murphy. “And it also costs us $15,000 per month to keep it operating properly.”(Normally, the dam generates enough electricity to
power some 400 typical homes.) He reviewed how municipal councils responded to the authority’s call for reduction of unnecessary water usage by 50 per cent. He noted that some went overboard. He got calls from farmers who were not allowed to water their livestock . “I sent letters to some councils advising them that livestock watering is part of essential use,” he reported. In her report, McClure did extensive research on rainfall and stream flow records for as far back as she could find. Rainfall records go back more than 100 years and Eastern Ontario was definitely in the near record if not record category. Stream flows received some help with a few rainfalls but the data indicates clearly a near record low flow. The one exception, Murphy noted, is the Napanee River. Back in 1959, a group of municipal politicians, realizing a drought problem at that time, acted to expropriate 3,000 acres of land north of Napanee and create a series of dams and the Depot Lakes to provide water storage. That is continuing to save the river and the area to this day, he said. Elsewhere though, wells are going dry and some farmers and other businesses are closing down. Questioned about what form an

emergency plan might take, Murphy said authority staff and Ministry of Environment officials should be able to contribute some support and suggestions. One member said an additional
threat from the low groundwater is a harsh winter and freezing going down deeper than normal, affecting underground infrastructure . Members also received a presentation from Murphy showing a po-
tential addition to the present office headquarters and a new storage facility for boats and equipment, replacing the existing barn. Murphy asked for no action at this point pending further efforts to find suitable funding.
