These five are switched on cyber seniors By Sue Dickens Campbellford – Wearing their caps and gowns, graduation was a time of celebration for five seniors who successfully embraced technology by completing the cyber seniors program, a joint project of Campbellford District High School (CDHS) and Island Park Retirement Residence. Whether it was learning to turn the computer on, figuring out the keyboard, setting up an email account or experiencing “facetime,” the eight-week course gave the seniors new skills and the students a chance to become teachers. “There is strong research that suggests learning computer skills can provide many physical and psychological health benefits for senior learners. This includes improvements in cognition, memory, and attention. It has also been shown to increase self-esteem and independence,” said Krista Hazlewood, lifestyle consultant with Island Park. “Cyber Seniors is more than
just teaching seniors about technology . . . it’s about creating friendship and making an impact on someone’s life. It teaches the importance of creating connections,” she added. The program was part of a high school course for Grade 11/12 students called “Human Development Through the Lifespan,” a prerequisite course at the university /college level (M). “The course is about human development from in utero right through to the end of life,” noted Pam Donnan, social science teacher at CDHS. For the five seniors who took the course, “the common thread was that they all ready wanted to stay in contact with their families. Nobody writes letters anymore. It’s all done online now. It’s all done through email,” Hazlewood commented. Island Park resident Helen Simpson agreed. “I want to do this because my children communicate with each other like this and they send pictures back and forth and I missed all that.” She added
Celebrating successfully completing the Cyber Seniors Program at Campbellford District High School, these residents from Island Park Retirement Residence donned cap and gown for the ceremony: Shirley Twigg, Mary Andrews, Norm Neshiem, Bert Greenhalgh. Absent is Helen Simpson. Photo submitted
grinning, “At my age, I’m 87, so I don’t know if I bit off more than I can chew.” Bert Greenhalgh, who will be 94 in August, said, “I have a lot of friends and family out west and I want to get in touch with them.” For the students it was a learning curve
as well. Sarah MacKenzie, Grade 12, said, “I thought this would be really neat because I am actually living with my grandparents right now so I am trying to teach them. I definitely have learned a lot of out of this.” Kristen Casserley, Grade 12, said, “I
think it’s really interesting to help teach, cause you never really know how much knowledge you have until you start teaching it to somebody else.” Island Park has purchased two iPads for residents and some have taken the initiative and bought their own.

Warkworth couple receive certificate of appreciation for breakfast program
Warkworth – It’s hard to fill a student’s mind with knowledge when there’s no food in the stomach to stoke the brain cells. Jim and Liz Law have been providing the fuel for learning for five years, organizing the breakfast program at Percy Centennial Public School. They got involved in school life when their son Cameron, who’s now in his third year at university, was in Grade 3. Liz Law served as chair of the school council for a few years and Jim helped out with the breakfast program before the two assumed respon-

sibility for its preparation three days a week. “We feed anywhere from 50 to 100 kids a day” -- all within 20 minutes, Liz said. “There’s a lot of happy bellies when they leave.” The fare includes scrambled eggs, the students’ favourite “as long as there‘s ketchup,” cereal, pancakes, muffins, ham and cheese wraps, apples, carrots, yogurt, apple juice and milk. The Laws were presented a certificate of appreciation recently from the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board for their volunteer work. The Accolades program honours community members whose “significant contributions have a positive impact on the quality of educational programs and/or the educational experience of students.” “It’s a great thing to be able to do,” Liz said, and “we work with great volunteers”: Pat Robinson, Nancy Honey, Dari Haddon, Estella Young, Pat Mills, Sandie Duthie,

The breakfast club receives funding through the province’s school nutrition program and is supported locally by St. Paul‘s United Church Women, St. Andrew‘s Presbyterian Church and the Warkworth Community Service Club. They also obtain food that‘s been donated and kept stored at the Food 4 All warehouse in Cobourg operated by Northumberland County.

Hastings Children’s Garden takes root again By Bill Freeman Hastings – The Hastings Children’s Garden will flourish again this summer. Volunteers with the Ontario Early Years Centre were at the garden Friday to put in plants and seeds in anticipation of another season of production, but also to offer youngsters a chance to learn more about nature by getting their hands dirty and watching plants grow. A 10 foot by 10 foot garden, west of the beach on the south side of the Trent River, has been in place since 2011 when the Hastings Environmental Group (HEG) created the garden as their first community project. It was adopted by the OEYC and named the Hastings Children’s Garden three years ago. “I think it’s a great project to be involved in,� Hastings OEYC supervisor Angie Nestoruk says. “It’s an ideal educational opportunity.� The children at the OEYC have been talking about plants and planted their own “magic beans,� she says, as a tie-in to a story-telling of Jack and the Beanstalk. “It’s a good spot [and] the community takes a bit of ownership,� she says. “There is so much to learn and then there is connecting with nature.� The Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health Unit donated seeds, and the HEG donated plants. The OEYC plans to have another scarecrow contest for the garden. “It’s more of a learning garden for the children,� adds Pat Stuckless of the health unit. The HKPR wants to “foster� an interest in planting and nurturing gardens and enjoying the end results.
Eli Whaley, two-and-a-half, was eager to help put plants in the Hastings Children’s Garden on Friday. Photo by Bill Freeman 6

OPINION
Universal basic income In a referendum on Sunday, Swiss voters rejected a proposal for a guaranteed annual income for everybody by an overwhelming 78 per cent to 22 per cent majority. But the idea was not crazy, and it is not going to go Gwynne Dyer away. The old argument in defence of technological change, that it creates more new jobs than it destroys, no longer holds water. In the 1980s, eight per cent of new jobs created in the developed economies were in entirely new occupations, from call-centres to computer programmers. In the 1990s, only 4.4 per cent of the new jobs involved newly invented occupations. In the 2000s, only half a per cent did. So full-time jobs with benefits have declined (only one-quarter of working-age Americans now have one) and the socalled “gigging economy” has not filled the gap. You may be able to stay afloat financially by doing a variety of “gigs,” low-paid, short-term, often part-time jobs, but you will never make ends meet, let alone get a mortgage. Industrial jobs were the first to be destroyed by automation, but it soon moved on to the less demanding clerical jobs as well. As somebody said: “Every ATM contains the ghosts of three bank tellers.” And now it’s moving on to the kinds of jobs that it once seemed impossible to automate. Driving, for example. The driverless vehicles that are now to be found meticulously observing the speed limit (and causing angry traffic jams behind them) on the roads of various major cities will soon be out of the experimental stage. At that point, the jobs of many millions of truck-drivers, bus-drivers and vandrivers will be in jeopardy. Yet this “problem” is actually a success story. Why would you see an economy that delivers excellent goods and services without requiring people to devote half their waking hours to work as a problem? The real problem is figuring out how to distribute the benefits of automation when

people’s work is no longer needed. And so to this relatively new idea: universal basic income. The core principle is that everybody gets a guaranteed income that is enough to live on, whether they are poor or rich, employed or not. They can earn as much more as they want, if they can find the work, but their basic needs are covered. The actual amounts did not get mentioned in the Swiss referendum, but the people who proposed it were thinking in terms of a monthly income of $2,500 for every adult, and an additional sum of $625 a month for every child. It would replace the usual humiliating jumble of welfare payments with a single fixed sum for everybody, so it has appeal for the right wing as well as the left. In the Swiss model (and in many others) the cost of a universal basic income is about 50 per cent higher than current expenditure on welfare payments, so taxes would be higher. But so would incomes, including those of high earners, since even they are getting the same flat annual payment of $30,000 per adult. As for the inevitable rise of the “gigging economy,” that then becomes just the way people top up their incomes in order to afford luxuries. If there is work available, then people would still want to do it, but if there is not, they would still have decent lives. About half the remaining traditional fulltime jobs in advanced economies will be eliminated by automation in the next 1020 years, so this is an idea whose time has come. Then why did the Swiss reject it by a 4-to-1 majority? Mainly because their deal with the European Union means that they have relatively open borders. Luzi Stamm, a member of parliament for the right-wing Swiss People’s Party, liked the idea in principal but opposed it in practice: “Theoretically, if Switzerland were an island, the answer is yes,” he told the BBC. “But with open borders, it’s a total impossibility. If you offered every individual [living here] a Swiss amount of money, you would have billions of people who would try to move into Switzerland.” Well, tens of millions anyway. But the solution to that is to control the borders, not to abandon the whole idea. And it will be back.

There goes Canada AM, there goes thousands of viewers Editorial - Chris Malette Okay, not so hard-hitting here this week, but the loss of a television show was much more than a soft story this past week for many of a, ahem, certain demographic. That is, many north of 50 years old who tuned in to the CTV morning show Canada AM – over, say, the mindless prattle of CP24 and others – were outraged, saddened and feeling abandoned after the network gassed former CJBQ news reporter Beverley Thomson and friends. (Disclaimer - I worked with Bev covering city hall, among other beats, back in the early 90s and can tell you she’s all that and a bag of chips in terms of news sense and a sharp noodle. Now, my wife jokes ‘Your girlfriend’s on TV…’ She wasn’t my GF, but I can tell you there was at least one local media guy so smitten with Bev he, at a daydrinking pub farewell session for Bev, dropped to his knees in a beery plea to ask her to stay in Belleville… but I digress.) The program has been billed as “Canada’s mostwatched national morning newsmagazine.” Pffft… fat load that mattered. Bell Media has said that Thomson will move to CTV News Channel while Marci Ien will develop new projects with Bell Media In-House Productions. Bev always was a newsie at heart and Ien leaned toward the entertainment aspects of the program. With Thomson’s news chops – she really is a good interviewer – and Ien’s sunny entertainment stuff, coupled with the weather and other features, it was a well-accepted, much-loved morning ritual for thousands. Social media exploded in outrage when CTV unceremoniously pulled the plug. Why, you could almost hear the dentures clacking in anger as we of a certain age vented online. Here’s one that pretty much sums it up, as it appeared on Facebook: “I don’t get this next generation B.S.?! You want to have seasoned reporters/anchors, they get so much better with time. CNN dumped Larry King and look what that got them! Also Hockey Night in Canada, why is George Snuffleappagus hosting? Ron Maclean knows everything about the sport, down to the local leagues. I am sad. The last thing I want to see is Ben Mulroney every morning!! Sincerely, Not so old guy” Never underestimate the frustration of the abovementioned viewers of a certain age – you know, Distribution Inquiries 613-966-2034 ext 508

the demographic often dismissed by advertisers who fail to grasp the fact that no amount of gerrymandering is going to lure young eyes in the cherished 25-45 demographic to watch morning television Monday to Friday. When the announcement inevitably came Monday, confirming reports that the impossibly-coiffed son of former prime minister, Brian Mulroney – scion, Ben Mulroney, will be taking over the show with co-host Anne-Marie Mediwake, the reception was underwhelming from most quarters. Let’s face it, the television media landscape, anymore, is largely a vapid wasteland of celebrity gossip and reality shows, interspersed with 24-hour news channels that run half-hour loops of news reports. The new brand of TV, if you let yourself be lulled by the hipsters who come up with this new shortattention-span viewer-based planning strategy, is short, snappy, happy entertainment dreck a la ETalk (where we’re told Mulroney will remain) interspersed with a quick short shot of news, sports and weather. The rest, for those who care, will be taken up with celebrity babble, hosts laughing and giggling at each others’ inanities and pictures of Kardashians in a bikini or evening gown. Jeff Hutchison, the former co-host from Canada AM who had announced he was retiring this September, regardless, had this to say to a CBC radio program last weekend. “I think you’re going to see a show that’s more entertainment/lifestyle, maybe a little less newsy,” said Hutcheson. “In this world, they’re following what they think is the next shift.” There you have it. The guy who’s been on the inside (even if his silly Internet segment was cat-video heavy and sometimes unwatchable) just gave you a coded message for what’s really happening to your TV viewing trends, geezers. The ‘they’ he is referring to are the people who care not a whit about you or your diminishing spending patterns – they think they’re going to lure kids back to morning television, a place the kids left a long, long, long time ago for tablets, laptops and smart phones. Adios, then Bev and friends. Those of us who will miss you will likely be lumped in with the people who bawled when Johnny Carson left the airwaves. Johnny who?

Cupcakes and cats, there is a connection When Patience Jonk heard about National Cupcake Day in support of animals, the Grade 4 Hillcrest Public School student thought it would be a good idea for her school to get involved. It did and the result two years in a row has been sales of about $170 in cupcakes on behalf of the Cat Care Initiative, a volunteer organization that helps homeless cats and feral colonies in Trent Hills. “It‘s tremendous to

have something like that,” Patience‘s mother, Jen said, because there are numerous feral cats in the area “and people don‘t always take care of their cats the way they should.” Their cat Coco was found in Ferris Provincial Park eight years ago. Local naturalists George Thomson and wife Elizabeth Churcher provided a fascinating tour of wetland plants, insects, amphibians and mammals at a recent Annual General Meeting of the Friends of Stoco Lake. Their presentation entitled “Life at the Edge” incorporated stunning nature photography by local photographer Jason King and held the close attention of about 20 attendees. The AGM also featured a progress report on the group’s activities including development of a Stoco Lake Stewardship Plan. Photo by Brett Mann

Plenty of local winners at Peterborough County awards gala
By Bill Freeman
Havelock – “We never expected this,” said Daniel Benjamin, preparing to accept a Peterborough County Recognition Award on behalf of the Norwood District High School team that presented a highly regarded production of the musical Grease last year. Daniel, a Havelock native, and castmate Brittany Stewart accepted the award in Havelock at the 23rd annual event. Thirty-seven awards in 10 categories were presented. The NDHS musical was honoured for leadership in arts and culture; Havelock’s Mid Week Jammers were
recognized as well in the arts category. In all, there were three winners from Havelock-Belmont-Methuen and Asphodel-Norwood including volunteers of the year Anne Carlow from Norwood and Marilyn Davison from HBM; Joe and Kathy McGriskin of Riskinbrook Holsteins of AsphodelNorwood for agricultural leadership and Rydan Manufacturing Inc. and Gliding Shelf Solutions of HBM for business leadership and entrepreneurial leadership. “Everybody was very excited,” Daniel said. “We never expected to get it so we’re just honoured. It’s amazing that NDHS is offering the
musical opportunity for students that a lot of bigger schools don’t even have. All the staff were open to it and they all like helping out with it.” Marilyn Davison has been a Havelock Community Care volunteer for seven years. Davison admits she was a little “embarrassed” and “blown over” when she found out she was being honoured. “It’s like one big family and how they chose one person and I’m the lucky one. I’m very honoured,” she said. “When I retired I saw their sign that said, ‘looking for volunteers’ and joined up. I love it and you can’t get
me out of there. I do get more out of it than I put into it at times. The joys and rewards are unbelievable.” “It’s a tremendous honour. “We’re so thrilled,” said Shirley Patterson of the six-year-old Jammers who’ve helped raise money for upgrades to Havelock’s historic town hall. “It’s been an amazing ride. Everyone agrees that town hall is well worth the saving. The acoustics are just so perfect.” “It makes me feel very good inside. I get a lot of enjoyment out of it,” added Anne Carlow, a regular volunteer at Pleasant Manor Nursing Home.

Friends of Ferris kite day gives everyone’s spirit a lift By Sue Dickens Campbellford – The wind gusts made the annual kite day hosted by Friends of Ferris (FoF) a lot of fun, giving everyone’s spirit a lift. “We had a 152 confirmed attendees this year … great turnout. Thankfully the predicted thunderstorm never manifested. It was a hot day with good gusting wind,” noted Anne Kidd, who was one of the members of the kite building team. “It was a very good turnout compared to the last five years, but not as big as last year when we had perfect weather.”
The fun day was a big attraction for families with children who came from not only Campbellford, but Stirling, Frankford, Belleville and Peterborough. Kite painting was a big hit with the participants. “Our new big tent was great for housing all the artists or catching some shade,” Kidd added. Others in her kite building team included Carol Robertson, Sandy Chapman, Barb Hogan, Marcia Perryman, Theresa Miller, Donna and Steve Wilson and Kevin, Josh and Brady McCarthy. Barb Hogan, president of the FoF, and her husband Bob helped prepare the site for the event and assisted with kite making and the barbecue. Other volunteers who pitched in included Sandy Chapman and Carol Robertson. Windrush Kites provided prizes for draws held during the event.
Friends of Ferris volunteers who made kite day fun for everyone include: Steve Wilson, Ted Shepherd, Chef Bob Hogan, Theresa Miller, Vanessa Bonanno, Donna Wilson, Sandy Chapman, Barb Hogan, Nancy Malcolm, Anne Kidd, Brady McCarthy, Dawson Cartwright, Skyla Cartwright and Josh McCarthy. Absent from photo who also helped make kite day a success are: Carol Robertson, Susan Lyght, John Knox and Marcia Perryman. Photo by Anne Kidd

Community Trees event held at Sticks and Stones in Stirling By Terry McNamee Stirling - People in need of a new tree or shrub to add to their landscaping were able to choose one for free on Saturday, thanks to Community Trees Program offered by the Hastings Stewardship Council. Held on May 14 at Sticks and Stones in Stirling, this event was the last of a series. Previous giveaways took place in Melrose, Tweed, Belleville and Marmora. “We do the free trees in partnership with the municipality,” said Louise Livingstone of the Sticks and Stones on Demorest Road in Stirling hosted the annual Community Trees event in partnership with the Hastings Stewardship Council. She said Stewardship Council on Saturday, May 14. Five hundred trees were given away to area residents. Pictured from left are Ken the municipality buys the trees Sinclair and Dale Grant from the Stewardship Council, Sticks and Stones owners Adam and Ashley Cooney and Stewardship to be given away, but since Council members Steve Tubb, co-ordinator Matt Carauna and Louise Livingstone. Photo by Terry McNamee the Municipality of Stirling-
Rawdon did not participate this year, Adam and Ashley Cooney from Sticks and Stones stepped in and bought the trees while offering their facility on Demorest Road to host the twohour giveaway. “It’s a great community event that gets people outside and planting trees,” said Ashley Cooney. All the trees were one or two years old and ready to plant. Livingstone said the Stirling event started with 800 trees, and nearly all were gone in the first hour. Overall, the entire program gave away 5,000 trees. A variety of species were offered to suit different soil types and conditions, including white and red pine, blue, Norway and
white spruce, red and bur oak, black walnut, sugar and silver maple, cedar, serviceberry, highbush cranberry and nannyberry. Donations were accepted in exchange for the trees, with all money going to the Hastings Stewardship Council‘s programs or to local service group assisting with tree seedling distribution. The Stewardship Council also runs other events during the year, including two “Know Your Plant” workshops scheduled for Thursday, June 9, and Sunday, June 12. For information on these and other events, email Hastings Stewardship Council Co-ordinator Matt Caruana at info@hastingsstewardship.ca.
Tim Hortons Camp Day soars in Havelock By Bill Freeman Havelock – Camp Day at Tim Hortons in Havelock was another great day of community support, organizers of the annual event say. “As you can see, this is what the community does for this event. It’s the entire town,” assistant manager Trisha Deshane said as she surveyed items donated for the silent auction the Havelock restaurant holds each year for Camp Day. Camp Day is Tim Hortons largest single fundraiser, with 100 per cent of coffee sales June 1 going to the Tim Hortons Children’s Foundation, which runs seven youth camps across Canada. Additional money was raised in Havelock through a silent auction and indi-
vidual donations, which will help send local children nine to 12 years to summer camp for 10 days with all costs, including transportation, food and lodging covered by the foundation. This year’s Camp Day was the foundation’s 25th anniversary event. “Local businesses are absolutely amazing in contributing. Staff is really excited [because] it’s one of those things we put into the community,” Deshane said of the Camp Day. It’s an event where the payoff is in youthful smiles and “I can’t believe this is happening’” looks, she says. “We all have the enjoyment of seeing the results because when the kids get picked up from the camp, they get picked up here, so we get

to see the excitement. We get a lot of pride out of doing this; everybody pulls together and they all want to help. Deshane says staff tip their collective hats to supporters not only in Havelock but in surrounding towns like Norwood and Hastings. “It’s not just our store. It takes all of these people to make it happen. It’s the entire area.” Last year, Camp Day raised $12.4 million in Canada and the United States and sent over 18,000 youngsters to summer camp. Over 25 years, it’s raised over $150 million and sent 237,000 children to camp. Darren Wrightly helps with the squeegee during Camp Day at Tim Hortons in Havelock. Photo by Bill Freeman

New partnership means well water samples can be dropped off in Havelock By Bill Freeman Havelock – Peterborough County residents can drop off well water samples in Havelock for testing now, rather than driving all the way to the city. The Peterborough County-City Health Unit, in partnership with the Peterborough Public Health Ontario Lab and Havelock-Belmont-Methuen, has launched a free well water courier service in Havelock starting June 6, which allows county residents to drop off samples in Havelock with no charge. They can also pick up kits in HBM. County residents can drop their samples at the Havelock-BelmontMethuen municipal office on Ottawa Street where they will be stored for next-day courier service to Peterborough. Previously, water testing kits were
only available at the health unit’s Peterborough location; people had to bring their samples to the lab on Hospital Drive. Now they’ll be able to do all of this in Havelock and residents will only need to call the public health lab’s interactive voice retrieval system (IVR) to get their results. “We are delighted to make it easier for county residents to pick up water testing kits and drop off their samples in Havelock,” says Atul Jain, manager of environmental health programs at the health unit. “Water quality changes over time. That’s why we recommend testing private wells three to four times a year to prevent health risks,” says Jain. “We hope that by making this testing service more accessible residents will test their well water more regularly.” The service is available to all residents and cottagers at no charge in Pe-
terborough County, he says. County residents will receive their water quality results through the mail or by calling the public health lab. The lab can be reached by phone at 1-877-723-3426. Jain says residents with any questions can call the health unit’s Safe Water Program at 705-743-1000 (ext. 232) for a free consultation. The well water samples are tested for bacterial contaminations like coliforms and E coli. This is important, Jain says, especially if E coli is found in the water and is ingested by the young, elderly or immune-compromised people because it can cause severe gastrointestinal illness. Residents can contact the health unit to find out how the water can be tested for other contaminants. The service runs Monday to Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
HBM will develop community improvement plan By Bill Freeman Havelock – Municipalities across Ontario use Community Improvement Plans (CIP) to help revitalize central business areas, stimulate economic development and encourage private sector investment, and Havelock-Belmont-Methuen hopes they’ll have the same success. Township council agreed to spend $26,857 to hire Meridian Planning Consultants of Vaughn to develop a community improvement plan after issuing a request for proposal. The township’s economic development committee recommended council consider developing a CIP. “I see this as a big opportunity,” says Mayor Ron Gerow. Traditionally through CIPs, municipalities offer grants or loans and sometimes tax incentives to eligible applicants for a broad range of rehabilitative or improvement initiatives within a designated area. “Council would decide during the
process what their allocation for the CIP would be,’” explained economic development officer Brian Grattan who brought the recommendation forward. The consultants, Grattan says, will “engage a lot of stakeholders” as they develop the plan. Beyond the initial expenditure to develop the plan there “shouldn’t be too much of a financial burden” on the municipality for the program, Webb
says. He sees the program as a progressive step towards encouraging investment. With the extension of the 407, Webb believes there’s “a major window of economic possibilities for this community. “We need to take advantage of it and not stagnate. We need to let people know we’re open for business and looking for investors in this community.”
Will speed bumps be the answer on Norwood’s Spring Street? By Bill Freeman Norwood – The Township of Asphodel-Norwood wants to find a way to prevent heavy trucks from using newly reconstructed Spring Street as a bypass and slow traffic down on the residential street and speed bumps may be an answer. Spring, Pine and Oak Streets were completely rebuilt last summer during a major underground infrastructure project and the smooth road is an invitation to speed for some drivers. Oak Street is also home the St. Paul Catholic Elementary School. “I’m amazed at the additional amount of traffic,” says Councillor Debbie Lynch. Lynch wants to see stepped up police monitoring as a start and temporary signage indicating heavy trucks shouldn’t use the road to bypass highway seven or cut from County Road 45 to the highway. During the construc-
tion project, council talked about removable speed bumps. Public works manager Jeff Waldon did some research. “I couldn’t find what I was envisioning,” Waldon said. What he hoped to find was a “permanent sleeve” that could be left in the road that would house a removable speed bump. “They’re just not out there,” he said. What is available are speed bumps anchored into the road with 14 inch spikes. That style of speed bump leaves “voids” in the pavement for water to enter, said Waldon, and during the winter when the speed bumps are removed the freezing and thawing cracks the asphalt. Waldon says the cracking usually travels to the next weak point or void, which can create a larger crack between all the anchor holes. As an example he showed photos of cracks around the removable speed
bumps at Peterborough Costco. Waldon says there are permanent speed bumps which are “plow friendly” used in a number of municipalities. “I’m in agreement with not ruining our new pavement,” said Deputy-Mayor Rodger Bonneau. Bonneau lives on Spring Street and says heavy trucks are “ducking down” the street to avoid the lights. He’d like police to “monitor” for rolling stops and speed at the intersection of Pine and Spring Streets. “Once the word gets out that police might be monitoring it will solve a lot of problems,” he said. He didn’t think they’d be able to enforce a permanent ban on heavy truck traffic. “What about sod truck? What about furniture trucks?” The municipality will continue to look at calming measures like permanent speed bumps.

Madoc Lions Club working toward accessible swing for park By Diane Sherman Madoc - The local Lions Club has been busy. So far this year, their contributions to the community include a recent donation of $500 to Adam’s Hope for autism awareness. On May 24, they were joined by MPP Todd Smith, Adam’s Hope executive Daniella Barsottie and Tom
James of Belleville at Arts Centre Hastings for the presentation. Their big project for 2016 is to purchase a swing set for physically handicapped patrons to enjoy at Centre Hastings Park, a project for which they are raising funds through a raffle for an ATV. The final draw is July 19. Club members have also volunteered to mow the

lawns for Heart of Hastings Hospice and will deliver hospice equipment freely to clients when needed. They have also assisted in the purchase and delivery of four electric scooters to residents with mobility limitations. Funds raised through numerous barbecues and dog tag sales, purchased an overhead projector for the arts centre, contributed to the Alzheimer’s Association, and helped out Foundations Youth Centre and Youth Unlimited. In addition, they sponsor the Community Care transit bus, Central Hastings Support Network transit system and the accessible washroom at the arena, and helped purchase equipment
for the Ivanhoe playground and donated to The Bookworm. Recently, a donation was made to the Fort MacMurray fire victims fund and they helped out three local families after two fires. They supply children’s prizes for Madoc classic cruise nights and proceeds from their concession at the show will assist building of Trinity Memorial Park. Besides keeping up with commitments of the Lions International code of practice, with eye glass collections, a community clean up and free vision and hearing screening in schools, the Lions Club of Madoc is making a positive impact on their own community.

Trent Hills – Some major projects, requiring design and engineering work to get started, have been approved by council. DM Wills Consulting Engineers will design upgrades to the Campbellford potable water storage system, and refurbishment of the town’s standpipe at a cost of $573,825. The standpipe, or cylindrical tank on top of the hill overlook-
ing Campbellford, is in critical need of internal relining and exterior re-coating. The upgrades will enhance the water treatment facility, including its high lift pumps, backwash area and disinfectant system. DM Wills was also chosen to design reconstruction of sanitary and storm sewers, traffic signals and the road on Doxsee Avenue and Park Street in Campbellford. The price tag is $49,725. The municipality’s request for
proposals received seven responses. “Having a project designed and in a tender ready state ... is beneficial when provincial and federal funding opportunities come forward,” general manager of infrastructure renewal and public works administration Scott White said in a report to council. The firm of Greer Galloway Consulting Engineers was chosen from eight submissions to
design the replacement of the Nappan Island bridge at a cost of $94,565. The actual construction isn’t expected to take place for another three to five years, to accommodate a housing development planned for the island. Council also approved hiring Davidson Violette to install video surveillance equipment at the Hastings Field House for $15,867. It was the lowest of six quotes received.
Local support helps Bookworm recoup after break-in The Friends of the Library suffered losses of over $1,000 as the result of a break-in late in March. On May 28, local artist/author Shawna Mathison donated $107 from sales of her work to the Friends’ bookstore, The Bookworm, in Madoc. Volunteer Kevin Cutts accepted the donation from Mathison with Marion Van Heukelom and Clara Hopkins. Shawna’s Scarborough-based event co-ordinator Donna McGinn was in town for the day.

Hastings cancer survivor staunch supporter of Relay for Life By John Campbell Hastings – Judy Frey considers herself fortunate. She survived breast cancer. Eight years ago she had a mastectomy. Her cancer was discovered “really early” as a result of a routine mammogram, “so I didn‘t even have to have chemo or radiation. I was so lucky.” Not so her husband Don. A tumour was discovered in his esophagus in October 2007 and he underwent radiation and chemotherapy over the next several months but the disease “was just too far advanced” and he died in June 2008. The Hastings resident will be taking part in her eighth Relay for Life in Trent Hills, June 11, when it‘s held for the first time in the village‘s new field house. Frey said, “people get really annoyed that they’re not finding a cure,” but until you have cancer, “you have no idea how much the cancer society really does” to help those with the disease. Frey had her operation two weeks after her diagnosis. She was given a choice of a mastectomy or 18 radiation treatments. She chose surgery because she was too busy dealing with her husband’s health problems. “It was the best decision I ever made,” she said. She‘s been cancer-free ever since, going in

Centre Hastings joins first National Youth Relay By Diane Sherman
not provide enough education on mental health. He questions whether teachers are getting enough training on the issue. The Ontario curriculum offers mental health studies only in Grade 11 physical education, which is an
elective. Not all students choose that course. He believes the topic should be “a priority considering the number of kids we’re losing. “We need to teach them coping mechanisms for life, for when they
leave school.” Centre Hastings rallied for the day, laying out a course and chocking up a number of students participating. O’Brien commented on the relay by Facebook. “Last year I chose Madoc as the number one small
community in Canada for supporting the foundation, and this year the school’s backing it up with their amazing participation in the first National Youth Relay. Madoc Rocks Perseverance!” See steveobrienfondation.com.
Madoc - After crossing Canada in 2015 on his WalkRunRoll campaign to keep students from dropping out of school, former Olympic contender Steve O’Brien spearheaded a movement, challenging schools to hold a day of relays, running or walking 100 metres. Centre Hastings Secondary School took part in that relay May 30, with Shawn Antoski filling in for O”Brien who was booked in Quebec. Antoski played in 183 NHL games from 1993 to 1997, until a car accident left him with a skull fracture, ending his career. Now living in Madoc, he is the president of the Belleville Minor Hockey Association and active in promoting mental health awareness for youth and adults. O’Brien and Antoski were introduced last year when O’Brien came to Madoc on his cross-Canada trek Sept 3, and stayed longer than expected. The two have joined forces to promote mental health and physical activity. Both encourage youth to stay in school and be physically active, and not to be afraid to talk about depression and mental health. “Everyone says, ‘healthy body, healthy mind.’ I think it’s the other way around,” Antoski told students. “We need a healthy mind to stay physically active.” He is concerned about the number of suicides over the past few years, Shawn Antoski is flanked by student organizers Ryley Nobes and Meghan Palmateer for the Steve O’Brien National Youth Relay, backed up by students from Dan Walsh’s science class and Tara Prance’s and believes school curriculum does English classes.

The Hastings knitters are back
By Bill Freeman
Hastings – The Hastings Knitters are back. After a four month sabbatical due to the closure of the Hastings swing bridge, the popular nine-year-old group has returned to the Civic Centre for its Thursday afternoon sessions eager to rekindle their social network and provide knitted wear for charities across the region. “We were anxious to see the bridge open,” the group’s leader Sweetie Thal said. The knitters were pleased the bridge opened nearly a month ahead of schedule, and Thal was impressed with the number of items members knitted at home following their last meeting on Dec. 17. The 25 members took donated wool home with them and kept at it, she said.

Thal said. They filled three tables with items the first day back. “They do beautiful work.” The award-winning group has members from around the region and supplies at least eight different charities including the Alderville Women’s Shelter, Alderville Health Services, nursing homes, schools, the YWCA, the food bank and Rotary International. “That bridge, it was a headache for everyone,” said Margaret Taylor of Hastings. Taylor, 98 this October, is an original member of group and calls the friendships she’s made “wonderful.” “They’re the reason I’m here. I just love doing things like this. I’ve been more or less laid up the last couple of years but I still come here. Everyone was glad to get back.”

Stirling Council told about new property assessments By Terry McNamee Stirling—There is now more data available than ever before about how properties are being assessed by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC), and on Monday, June 6, Catherine Barr of the MPAC visited Stirling Council to tell them how to access it. Barr said the latest assessments are effective as of January 2016 and will remain in effect for the taxation years of 2017 through 2020. These assessments determine the market value of each piece of property, which is required in order for a municipality to determine how much property tax is owed by each property owner. Barr said that all residential property assessments were mailed in May and owners should have them by now. Farm property assessments will be sent out in October, and other assessments will be mailed in late October, she said. Barr said the new notices feature a new design that is easier to understand and contains more relevant information. Property owners who feel their assessment is incorrect have 120 days to file a request for reconsideration. But increases will not become effective immediately. “Any increase in assessment is phased in over four years,” she told Council. She said assessments are based on many different
factors, among them the location of the property, the size of the lot, the size and age of the house and so on. She said people can go on-line at aboutmyproperty.ca to find both general assessment information and specific details about their own assessment. They also can compare their property with up to 100 others and check market trends. She said people should also check the information listed about their property to ensure that the data on file with the MPAC is correct. Help is available on-line at mpac.ca or at the MPAC office in Trenton. The website also has information that can be used by municipalities with regard to the community;s overall assessment and where areas of differing assessments are located. Barr said a typical home has gone up in value by $34,000 since the last assessment done in 2012. “Have you heard what farmland is going to do?” asked Mayor Rodney Cooney. “I’ve heard Northumberland has gone crazy.” Barr said farmland is going up in value rapidly. “Yes, there is an increase — there’s no doubt about that,” she said. However, she added, actual figures won’t be available until October. The Mayor said this is a big concern in StirlingRawdon, because the Township has the greatest percentage of farmland of any municipality in Hastings County. Nearly 70 per cent of land in this Township is farmland.
Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool partially in pan on wire rack. Slice partially cooled cake in half, making two layers. Place half of the strawberries on one layer and top with the other layer. Top with remaining strawberries and cover with the whipped cream.

Norwood students step up for OneMatch registry By Bill Freeman Norwood – Saving a life is as easy as registering for the OneMatch stem cell and marrow network and eligible students at Norwood District High School have answered the call. The Canadian Blood Services (CBS) OneMatch network was at NDHS recently in an attempt to expand the number of people on the registry, particularly in the core 17-35 age group which the CBS says is so critical. They’re the “optimal donors, particularly males,” said CBS territory manager Sharr Cairns. There are approximately 325,000 people on the registry and the CBS wants that to grow. They also want the registry to be more diverse. “The registry is mostly Caucasian and that’s not the face of Canada. We have to make sure we have potential donors of all cultures,” she says. The CBS is part of an international network
of registries with more than 11 million donors which means Canadian patients can be matched across the globe which significantly increases their odds of finding a match. Within a family there’s just a 25 per cent chance of finding a compatible donor so the rest will have to look to the OneMatch network for a donor. That’s why it’s so important they have as many 17-35-year-olds on the registry as they can, Cairns says. “Public awareness,” she notes, is critical. “The OneMatch program is one you might not be aware of until there is a need in your immediate circle. By raising awareness before that need there is hope that every patient will find that match.” “I’ve already donated and I just think it’s important other people do it,” added Grade 12 student Cian Ceranowicz. “The more people who donate the more opportunities to have that second chance in life when they need a stem cell.”

Lions’ town hall project will help Norwood food bank By Bill Freeman Norwood – A $6,000 building project at the Norwood Town Hall will improve the “functionality” of the Asphodel-Norwood Ministerial Food Bank. The Norwood Lions Club has taken on the special community project as a smaller less ambitious follow-up to the major splashpad campaign they last spearheaded. “This year we’ve committed funds to help improve the functionality of the food bank,” says special projects chair Peter Oord. The project entails moving all of the food bank’s storage from the town hall’s basement to the west wall of the north room on the main floor, Oord explained to AsphodelNorwood council. It will “ease the continual burden of rotation of stock and storage of the food bank’s supplies,” he said. The project, Oord added, will
“eliminate much of the lifting and carrying that is currently being done” and will make each food bank day easier to manage. The storage will consist of 18 feet of heavy-duty fixed shelving and 20 feet of rolling baker’s racks. Oord says it will be secure and made “visually pleasing by concealing everything with a suspended sliding door.” The food bank is in “full support” of the Lions’ plans. “In many ways, the project will make it easier for the food bank to operate. All our food will be on the main floor,” Food Bank Chair Reverend Roger Millar said. “We may lose some storage space because of the change but I think we will be able to work around that.” There are approximately 70 families who use the food bank on a regular basis; half of those people are single, the rest are couples with children or single parents.

Health unit launches new name: Peterborough Public Health
Peterborough County – It’s official. Peterborough Public Health is now the new name of the public health agency serving Peterborough County and City and Curve Lake and Hiawatha First Nations. The new name Peterborough Public Health was approved by the board of directors earlier in the year after an extended consultation period with the intention that June 1 would be the official launch date. “We’re proud of our new identity as Peterborough Public Health,” says Dr. Rosana Salvaterra, Medical Officer of Health. Previously, Dr. Salvaterra says she’d “find that people were sometimes confused about which piece of the health care pie was ours.

Norwood High’s Zoe Burnett defends Ontario archery title
By Bill Freeman Richmond Hill - Zoe Burnett was golden at the Ontario High School Archery Festival in Richmond Hill. The Norwood District High School recurve archery ace defended her Ontario title, calmly topping the field at
the huge OFSAA-sanctioned event at the Richmond Green Sports Centre. This year NDHS had three athletes in the competition, the culmination of a successful season for the budding archery program. Mike Burtt placed 15th out of 70 in the men’s compound and first-time ar-
cher Megan Wilson competed alongside Zoe. “It was nice to be part of a team,” Zoe said. Last year, NDHS did not have a formal team with only Nathan Ellwood joining Zoe in Richmond Hill. This year it was different with over 20 NDHS students participating in Kawartha League action at Saugeen Shafts. “We actually had three others who qualified but couldn’t make it on that day,”
coach Linda Coons said. Next year, she thinks NDHS could have as many as 12 athletes at the Ontario final and a good shot at picking up serious team points. “The reason it’s so successful this year and even more next year is we have archery equipment at the school and archery is part of the [physical education] classes,” she says. “That will really stimulate interest as well.” The NDHS team is a mix of avid hunters, who realize competitive archery sharpens their skills, and athletes like Zoe who’ve chosen archery as their sport. “It’s two kinds of a really different spectrum. It’s perfect,” says Coons.
“The atmosphere was great. I enjoyed it a lot,” Zoe, in Grade 11, said of the massive festival. In 2015, she battled a flu bug as well as the competition. This year it was straight shooting. “It was not quite as close as last year.” Last year two points separated first and second; this year it was around 10. Zoe’s thrilled to see the sport grow locally. “There’s lots of people, especially kids. It’s awesome for the sport.” Zoe wants to take archery as far as she can. “The Pan Ams would be fun. I’m not too sure about the Olympics.”

Four-legged, four-wheeled beasts against cancer at Pullin’ for a Cure By Stephen Petrick Belleville – Bonny Tanner would have loved this one. Hundreds of people packed the grandstand at the Quinte Exhibition & Raceway on Saturday, June 4 to watch horses and tractors pull large weights with all their might. Opposite the grandstand, on the other side of the track, dozens more people watched casually from pickup trucks, enjoying the show with friends and family until the sun set over the west-end Belleville sky. It was all for a good cause too, as proceeds from the $10 admission went to support the Canadian Cancer Society’s Wheels of Hope program. Pullin’ for a Cure was launched four years ago to honour Bonny Tanner, the mother of a Foxboro family who loved tractor and horse pulls and could often be found at such shows at area fall fairs. “If she was here she’d have a big smile on her face,” said Bonny’s daughter, Tandie Tanner. She added that the family-friendly nature of horse or tractor pulls is what attracted her mother to the events. “It’s something that families can do together,” Tandie said. Bonny died after a battle with brain cancer on March 13, 2011 in her 57th year. Not long after her death, family members and friends worked to set up the Pullin’ for a Cure event. In its first year, the event raised
money for research into brain cancer. In the second year, the program was set up to ensure all moneys raised would stay in the community. This year, organizers decided to have proceeds go to the Wheels of Hope, a program that allows volunteers to drive cancer patients to doctor’s appointments, often out of town. This program ensures patients don’t have the burden of losing money on transportation costs on top of their already stressful ordeals. Tandie said her family was happy to have an opportunity to contribute to Wheels for Hope this year, as she said it’s important to do “anything that makes it easier for families.” She said the time following her mother’s diagnosis was stressful and it now seems like a blur. So she appreciates how families battling cancer can really benefit from Wheels of Hope. At 6 p.m., shortly before 5,500-pound tractors were put to the test, an opening ceremony was held where two local cancer-surviving children were honoured. Carson McKenna was given an opportunity to ride a modified highway tractor. And moments later Carly Land, with help from Prince Edward-Hastings MPP Todd Smith, released yellow balloons into the air, to signal the start of another important cancer fundraising event.
Amy Doyle, the director of the reminded guests that funds raised CCS’s Hastings-Prince Edward for cancer programs makes a huge County and Brighton Community difference. Office, took the microphone and She said today the survival rate
for a child battling cancer is now 82 per cent, up significantly from the 1980s, when cancer fundraising took off.

The Good Earth:
Alternate hosts and rust
Dan Clost Rusts (there are quite a few of them) are caused be specific fungi (mostly Puccinia) with the adult or completed stage appearing quite similar: orange, brown or yellow “dust” on the leaves,
usually the underside, of infected plants. In the ornamental garden, rusts may be unsightly but seldom do they cause the death of the infected plant. Perhaps one of the most common is Hollyhock Rust caused by Puccinia malvacaerum. The lower leaves are usually the first to be covered by orange spots with the higher leaves being affected subsequently. Fungicides are not available to us home gardeners so cleanliness is the best management method. Leaves should be disposed of in the garbage not the compost pile; winter cleanup should include removal of all second year plants and all leafy material from first year plants. Some folks will place a relatively tall, 2-3’, perennial in front of their malva to hide the onset of rust. By the way, this fungal chappie will visit other members of the malva clan including hibiscus, tree and rose mallows
(Lavatera), and Prairie mallows (Sidalcea) so don’t neglect them in your cleanup. One of the fascinating aspects of rusts is that they don’t always hang around on just one plant; some of them like to visit other flora in the neighbourhood while they go through a certain phase of their life cycle. The “other plant” is called the alternate host. You might think grass rust would stick with other grasses, apple rust would stick with other apples etc. but that’s not always the case. In our apple growing area of the Quinte region, cedar-apple rust is well-known. We have all seen it on the apple trees as well as on serviceberry, hawthorn, quince and a few other Rose family members. Each is a different fungus but the common factor is that Eastern Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana) is the alternate host. We’ll usually notice it when we see drippy gobs of orange gelatinous goop “drip-
ping” from a juniper branch or in the palms of your ten-year old who has brought in something really cool to show you. There’s really not much you can do except to look for the galls on the juniper before they maturity into the gloopy mess and cut them out. If you live near an apple orchard perhaps a good-neighbour thing to do would be to choose a different, non-host juniper for your landscape. Again, the good news is that the tree will seldom die and cleanliness will greatly reduce the likeliness of infection in following years. A lesser known fungus with an alternate host is Cronartium ribicola and the rust actually has two names. If you’re growing a commercial crop of berries it is Currant rust and if you have a forest of Eastern White Pines (Pinus strobus) it is White Pine Blister Rust. Both plants are commonly found
as ornamentals in the landscape or as a non-commercial food source, e.g. gooseberry. And that is the problem, Gentle Reader. Which plant has the most value? What if I have currants and gooseberries (and I do) in my garden as an integral successive small fruit plan and my neighbour plants a pine tree? If the pathogen blows in on the breeze and sets up house on one of our properties, how would we resolve the issue? If I’m pine tree person, I might offer to replace the ribes with an alternative fruiting bush and supply my neighbour with currants until the new plant is producing. However, Ribes alpinum is a popular hedge plant because it performs well in sun and shade. A possible scenario now pits several hundred feet of hedge against a number of pine trees of equal value – which one gets removed? Btw, bring in a properly certified arborist to identify the pathogen.

Leverage the private sector to put patients first, chambers of commerce say
The Bay of Quinte Chambers of Commerce in partnership with the Ontario Chamber of Commerce, have released a new report, Prescription for Partnership, which points to the need for health care stakeholders, both public and private, to put patients first. This report takes a closer look at the role commissioning can play in re-orienting a system that too often operates in response to budgetary pressure, the chambers say. Commissioning allows public and private sector perspectives to
be in conversation much earlier in the decision-making process. The chambers cite commissioning as a way of focusing our system on outcomes for patients rather than inputs from providers. The report suggests, this kind of collaboration is a key enabler of innovations in access, quality, and cost. “The provincial government needs to work with the private sector in order to meet its goal of putting patients first,” said Suzanne Andrews, general manager of the Quinte West Chamber
of Commerce. “We need the public and private sectors to problem-solve together and leverage one another’s expertise throughout the decision making process.” Belleville Chamber CEO Bill Saunders added, “we are all well aware of health care concerns in our region. This approach will ensure that collaborative, well thought out solutions can be found to ensure the appropriate level of patient care.” The private sector has long been an active participant in Ontario’s
health care system. In fact, the level of private sector involvement in Canadian health care is slightly above the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) average – 12th highest overall, and greater than 22 other countries in the OECD. However, the current relationship between the public sector and private health vendors (both for-profit and non-profit) lacks a co-operative structure and culture. “Today, the public sector is largely

From the hamlet of Cooper to a world gold medal By Diane Sherman Madoc - Jordan Graham anticipates the day Muaythai becomes an Olympic sport, and hopes to qualify for Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) status. He just took the world gold in Sweden, May 28 in a final round against Mexico. As a member of Muaythai Canada, a team of 21, Jordan competed in the 63.5 kilogram weight class and his team earned two silver and five bronze medals. He is slight of build, but quick and powerful with his feet, hands, knees and elbows as required for the ancient sport of mauaythai, translated “boxing of Thailand.”
“It is known as the Art of Eight Limbs,” Jordan explained at his grandmother’s home in Madoc on June 4. The sport continues to grow worldwide through the International Federation of Muaythai Amateur (IFMA) with 130 member countries. Patronage of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) since 2008 has raised its profile as a potential Olympic sport. Jordan wants to represent Canada. He is a Cooper native, (north of Madoc), born to Mark and Tammy Graham 21 years ago. His early days were spent here until his family moved to Belleville after Grade 9. His teacher at Centennial Secondary School practiced martial arts and Muaythai.
“I played hockey with the Grizzlies when I was younger, but decided there wasn’t a future in that for me. I needed another sport.” When he found martial arts, he found his passion. His parents, sister and companion Carly Rutter went with him to Sweden. Travel expenses were not covered, so they had to save for the trip.
He also competes in mixed martial arts with a 5-0 record and stands at 33 wins and six losses in Muaythai. He started competing in 2013, while training at Loyalist Martial Arts Academy in Belleville, and has since fought in Thailand, Malaysia, Italy, Panama, USA, Canada and now Sweden. Tammy says he has long days,
working at his own business, Graham Utility Hydro Vac, then spends three hours training. Jordan is classified as amateur. He says when the IOC acknowledges Muaythai as an Olympic sport, he will be ready. See Team Canada on Facebook at Muaythai Canada or research the sport at muaythaicanada.org.
Jordan Graham took gold in the IFMA world finals in Sweden on May 28. Jordan along with parents Mark and Tammy met at grandmother Linda (Graham) Lavallee’s house, June 4, before heading up to Cooper for a family gathering. Photo by Diane Sherman

Stirling firefighters raise money for Alberta fire victims By Terry McNamee Stirling - Despite rainy weather, local firefighters were out in force recently to help victims of the forest fire that forced the complete evacuation of Fort McMurray, Alberta. Many of the members of the StirlingRawdon Fire Service spent part of Saturday, May 14, stopping traffic and asking people to donate to their Boot Drive. Most of those who stopped were happy to hand over spare change or even $5 and $10 bills for the cause. “We had a good turnout from our department,” said Fire Chief Derrick Little. “The guys really support this event.” Prior to the rain that day, the fire risk in this area had been at the highest level, making firefighters especially aware of the dangers faced out west. “It really hit home with a lot of us because of the amount of grass brush fires we had this season and the amount of resources and effort that is required to fight them,” the chief said. “We can‘t imagine what the residents of Fort Mac and all the men and women firefighters and emergency services have gone through in an almost unbelievable disaster, and the magnitude and scale of that fire and the tireless hours that they have endured over the past few weeks and weeks to come. Our hearts go out to them.” The Boot Drive raised $3,000 and has Stirling-Rawdon firefighters and some young volunteers held a Boot Drive in Stirling on Saturday, May 14, to raise money for the Red Cross Fort McMurray Relief Fund. Among them were, from left, Derrick been donated to the Red Cross Fort Mc- Morgan, Deputy Chief Bruce Farquhar and Matt Faulkner, with 8-year-old twins Ethan and Noah Morgan. Murray Relief Fund.

Belleville - A 51-year-old Madoc man, Darryll Slain, pleaded guilty to possession of child pornography and making child pornography available. He was sentenced to 18 months in jail after appearing in a Belleville court last week. Slain also pleaded guilty to one count of careless storage of a firearm. Slain was charged in 2015 after Sgt. Brian McDermott, of the OPP’s Child Sexual Exploitation Unit, tracked child pornography images to two IP addresses through two separate service providers to Slain’s home.
During their investigation, police found four guns in Slain’s home, one of which was unsecured. He was given a five-year weapon prohibition, a 10-year order to not go to parks, playgrounds, schools, not be in a position of trust or authority to anyone under 16-years-old and to have no Internet access except as may be required for employment. He will be also be listed on the sexual offender registry and was ordered to provide a DNA sample plus forfeit all items previously seized.

More than 1,200 charges laid in road safety campaign By Terry McNamee Stirling – Police across Hastings and Prince Edward counties stepped up traffic enforcement from May 17-23 for Canada Road Safety Week, resulting in 1,288 charges being laid against area drivers. Stirling-Rawdon Police Service Constable Scott Preston, spokesperson for the Quinte Region Media Traffic Coalition, said that 1,031 charges were for speeding and 51 involved seat belt violations. Other offenses included 43 charges for distracted driving, 12 for stunt driving and nine for impaired driving. The remaining 142 charges were for a variety of other Highway Traffic Act offenses. Preston said that, while the campaign is over,
the QRTC will continue to focus on the violations that are the major contributors to death and injury on Canada’s roads: speeding, distracted driving, impaired driving and improper or non-use of seat belts. “Most of the deaths and injuries that occur on our roadways are preventable,” Preston said. “We’re asking the public to choose safe behaviours while travelling on our roadways.” The Quinte Region Traffic Coalition (QRTC) is a partnership of Hastings Prince Edward Public Health, Belleville Police Service, Stirling-Rawdon Police Service, 21 Military Police Flight, Napanee Highway Safety Division and the Bancroft, Central Hastings, Napanee, Prince Edward County and Quinte West OPP detachments.
Sneezy Waters plays the Old Church June 18 The legendary performer and actor ‘Sneezy’ Waters is bringing his music to Quinte West’s Old Church Theatre, at 940 Bonisteel Rd. on June 18. Waters is probably best known for his live presentation in the title role in “Hank Williams: the Show He Never Gave,” premiering in 1977. After 300 live performances from 1977 to 1990, through Canada and the US as well as Europe, Sneezy was chosen for the movie adaptation of the same name. By all accounts it was a runaway hit and was nominated for best film at the 19th annual Academy of Country Music awards. (Robert Duval’s ‘Tender Mercies’ won). Sneezy
won the best actor award for the role at the international film festival in Grenoble, France. His musical credentials span more than 40 years and he has shared the stage with Bruce Cockburn, Joan Armatrading, Martin Mull, John Hammond Jr. and Roy Orbison. He has been featured on innumerable television and radio shows over the years. He plays all kinds of original folk and country music and will be appearing at the Old Church Theatre with well known Ottawa virtuoso guitarist Vince Halfhide.

Future of Madoc arena: costs versus puck passion By Diane Sherman Eldorado – Rarely does anyone attend Madoc Township council meetings, but it was obvious debates over the local arena have changed that. Karen Bailey, from the Bruce Lee House League hockey program and John Oke, president of the Centre Hastings Minor Hockey Association, appeared as delegations to council June 1. Executive members of both leagues attended, along with parents and young players. Retired pro players Steve Bancroft and Shawn Antoski talked with George Eastman, manager of the Bancroft arena, in the parking lot afterwards about the costs of arena operations. Bancroft thanked Eastman for “coming down.” The contingent of supporters gathered outside applauded Karen Bailey when she came out of the building. The bottom line of both Bailey’s and Oke’s address to council was stated by John Oke. “Our recommendation is to open communications with us [arena users]. We will work with you to keep the arena open.”
Bailey came prepared with financial comparisons, questioning where the township is using $181,294 budgeted for recreation this year, and why they cannot pull the $185,000 Centre Hastings is asking for from their $1.1 million reserve fund to avoid litigation. “Those who use the arena should have something to say. We can help find a solution. We should have been consulted.” Oke expressed concerns for the physical, social and mental health of young people, a primary concern with both delegations. That concern was also expressed in letters to council from Kent Howard, Matt MaCoy and Theresa BaileyDostalor. Reeve Bob Sager told Bailey, “We don’t want to close the arena, but we can’t keep up with the costs.” Deputy-Reeve Tom Bruce noted a quarter of a million was spent last year. “We have no control. The costs are scary.” Councillor Loyde Blackburn stated all municipalities need a significant reserve fund for emergencies, and fielded questions about former agreements. Sager said he and Mayor Tom Deline had had a conversation, and

Kiwanis chicken BBQ lights up west-end Belleville By Stephen Petrick Belleville – Mmmmm … chicken. Members of the Belleville Kiwanis Club are responsible for people in the west end saying that on at least one spring day every year. The annual Kiwanis BBQ Chicken event returned on Wednesday, June 1. Kiwanis members, with help from volunteers and several businesses, cooked about 1,730 birds over a large pit outside the Quinte Curling Club on Bridge Street West. The massive BBQ, a tradition that’s taken place for 36 years, sends smoke into the air and the smell often wafts through the west end, leading to great sales. “Everyone loves the taste of barbecue chicken,” said Jeff Tureski, president of the club. People who paid $12 in advance got a half chicken with a baked potato and salad. The cost was $15 at the door. Tureski said the event is the Kiwanis Club’s biggest fundraiser of the year. He was expecting the barbecue to raise about $13,500 this year – money the club will use on community programs, particularly programs that impact youth. The club has had talks about supporting a new mountain bike park being planned for West Riverside Park, Tureski said, so the funds may impact that project. Tureski said the chicken barbecue is a great event because it’s outdoors Cody Rizzo (right) and Jordan Wilson turn over chicken that was grilling on and it gives the club exposure, as it a pit outside the Quinte Curling Club on Wednesday, June 1. It was the Kihopes to bring in new members. wanis Club’s annual BBQ Chicken event. Photo by Stephen Petrick

Westben hospitality co-ordinator honoured for her years of service By John Campbell Campbellford – How’s this for gratitude: After serving 16 years as volunteer hospitality coordinator for Westben Festival Arts Theatre, Katherine Cochrane was given the boot by the theatre’s co-founder Brian Finley . In front of her fellow volunteers. To Cochrane’s delight. Finley’s gag gift, a container for holding flowers, was his humourous way of thanking her for all the work she did organizing meals for the many artists who come from around the world to perform at The Barn every summer. “It‘s amazing what this woman has done,” he said. Dubbed “the queen of the Westben kitchen” and “a force to be reckoned with” by Sandy Robertson, one of the theatre‘s two volunteer co-ordinators, Cochrane thanked Finley and his wife Donna Bennett for giving her the opportunity to be part of a “wonderful, warm, loving, zany group of people.” It‘s been “a fun ride” and the community “has been enriched” by the couple‘s realization of their shared dream to provide “the finest entertainment around,” she added. Cochrane, who‘s 74, said she “will continue to volunteer with whatever,” but no longer as hospitality co-ordinator which she explained in an interview was “getting to be too much” for her to
handle any longer. Robertson said Cochrane co-ordinated the servers and cooks who provided the food along with her, and she helped planned the menu. “Katherine never lost her cool, she always dealt with everything with grace and good humour, she was a stalwart,” she said. Cochrane, who also performed in productions, said being in charge of a collective effort to feed small and large groups of artists “was always a challenge but [she] just loved doing it.” “I‘m sorry I can‘t do it anymore,” she said. “I‘ve had some health issues that popped up, so I wouldn‘t have been able to do it this year anyway.” Cochrane was one of 30 volunteers honoured for their years of service at a special reception held at the Clock Tower Cultural Centre, with Marilyn Keene having contributed the most over the years, 3,000 hours. “We couldn‘t survive without the volunteers,” Bennett said. “It wouldn‘t work financially,” if the theatre couldn‘t rely on people to provide the manpower it needs, at no cost to the non-profit organization. Their duties include serving as ushers, taking tickets, catering, looking after parking, giving out programs, working backstage, handling sound and lighting, and cleaning The Barn. Bennett said Westben has 250 volunteers on its list, with 15 to 20 working each concert. “It‘s like a family,” she said.
Katherine Cochrane took getting the boot as Westben’s hospitality co-ordinator rather well, breaking out in laughter, as theatre co-founder Brian Finley hoped she would. “I‘ve just so much enjoyed my relationship here with all these wonderful people,” Cochrane said afterwards. “Everybody is just terrific,” and Finley and his wife, Donna Bennett, are “really the nicest people.” Photo by John Campbell

Hastings Historical Society visits the Marble Arts Centre
Actinolite – Bonnie Marentette, a board member of the Tweed and Area Arts Council, served as tour guide when the Hastings County Historical Society visited the Marble Arts Centre in Actinolite this month. Led by Bill Hunt, coorganizer of the bus tour, about 50 passengers disembarked from a highway coach to enter the former church, now an arts centre and theatre operated by TAAC. This is the first year the Historical Society has visited the MAC, said Marentette. Tour members are not necessarily members of the historical society, Marentette explains, “just anyone who wanted to buy a ticket to be on the bus. “They called us, asked could they do a tour and we said ‘of course, what better way to sell the building and promote what we’re doing here?’” The Marble Church has a long and interesting history and is unique in being the only church in Canada built of white marble, quarried
several hundred feet away to the north-east. “The community hall [across the road] which originally was one of the schools, is also from the same marble,” Marentette reported. “The church was built between 1864 and 1866,” noted Marentette. The church burned down on May 24, 1869, along with the majority of Bridgewater, as Actinolite was then known. At the time of the fire most of the town’s residents were in Madoc celebrating Queen Victoria’s birthday. Today the interior of the MAC has been fitted with comfortable theatre seating, air conditioning, a sound system and a proscenium stage which has seen numerous performances. Warming to the opportunity to share her enthusiasm for the Marble Church with a crowd, Marentette remarked, “I’ll tell them come on in, get comfortable, then I’ll do my little spiel and then I’ll tell them Bonnie Marentette, a board member of the Tweed and Area Arts Council, addresses a tour sponsored by the Hastings County Historical Society at the there’s washrooms out back and Marble Arts Centre. Built as a church between 1864 and 1866, the ‘Marble Church’ is believed to be the only church in Canada built of white marble. feel free to ring the bell and sign the Photo by Brett Mann guest book when they’re leaving.”

Belleville Theatre Guild captures the magic of “The Music Man” By Terry McNamee Belleville—If you have a couple of hours to spare in the next week or two, here’s a great way to spend it: see the Belleville Theatre Guild’s production of “The Music Man”. In a word, it is delightful. The musical tells the story of a film-flam man who calls himself Professor Harold Hill coming to a dusty little town in Iowa in 1912, hoping to fleece the residents out of their cash by telling them that their town is in trouble. He persuades them that the only way to save their boys from — gasp! —playing pool (which, he says, will lead them into gambling, smoking and who knows what other evils) is to create a boys’ band. And he is just the one to arrange for that to happen. In no time, townsfolk are signing up to buy instruments, uniforms and instruction books for their sons, while Hill plans a quick exit as soon as those items arrive. But Marian the Librarian sees through him, and does everything she can to thwart him. Needless to say, things do not go as planned for either of them, but the journey is marked by some of the most memorable songs ever written for a Broadway play — ‘Til There Was You, Gary Indiana, (Ya Got) Trouble and, of course, SeventySix Trombones. When dealing with Meredith Willson’s beloved musical, casting absolutely crucial, and the BTG
got it perfect with every role, with a cast ranging in age from 8 to 80-something. Prof. Hill is played to perfection by Timothy Fransky, who manages to show the innate good inside the character of a sneaky travelling salesman. Sally McCrae as Marian Paroo the librarian is the best singer in the show, and fearlessly takes on the signature songs made famous by actress Shirley Jones. Fransky and McCrae play off each other marvelously well, especially in the “Marian the Librarian” scene with the town’s teenagers aiding and abetting Hill’s courtship of Marian. Special mention must go to the two youngsters portraying Winthrop, Marian’s little brother. Kael Mestre and Max Archer share the role. Archer performed as Winthrop on opening night, and did a great job, especially in his big number of Gary, Indiana, while Dallin Whitford was wonderful as Tommy Djilas, the town’s “bad boy”. As for the rest of the cast of 40, from the town’s children to the ladies to the barbershop quartet, from the pit band to all the people behind the scenes, there is simply no weak link in this production. The Music Man, produced by Liz Marshall and directed by David Kidd, runs until June 18 at the Pinnacle Playhouse, 256 Pinnacle St., Belleville. For tickets or to subscribe, call the box office at 613-967-1442 or go to www.bellevillettheatreguild.ca

New director of Poverty Roundtable has wealth of experience By Stephen Petrick Belleville – A woman hired to lead the fight against poverty in the region has an incredible resume, with experience working on social projects in Europe and Africa. Christine Durant is the new director of the Hastings Prince Edward Poverty Roundtable. Durant will lead an initiative to address poverty by building on collaborations between various social agencies across the two counties. The new initiative “Creating Communities” is a three-year project funded by the Ontario Trillium Foundation. The Poverty Roundtable (PRT) was established in 2013 to see what could be done, or done differently to address poverty in our region. Members of the roundtable meet regularly throughout the year and at the last meeting, on Wednesday, June 1 at the Quinte Sports & Wellness Centre, Durant was
introduced to the group. “I’m glad to come home … to work on sustainable change,” said Durant, who was born and raised in the Quinte region. Details of Durant’s working past were revealed to the group. She has more than 20 years of experience working as an educator, community organizer and development consultant in Canada, Germany, and Malawi and holds a Masters in adult education with specialization in community development. There are currently nearly 180 organizations and individuals across Hastings and Prince Edward counties committed to working with the PRT to reduce poverty. New members are always welcome. More information about the Roundtable can be found on our website: www.povertyroundtablehpe.ca . Durant’s office will be located out of the Community Development Council of Quinte’s location at 65 Station St., Belleville.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Get ready for the Gaetane Harvey Memorial Walk
Dear Editor My name is Lisa McAuley. My Mother Gaetane Harvey passed away on January 30, 2006 after a brief but hard fought battle against breast cancer. Her passing fuelled my passion to fundraise. And after many years of participating in various events I decided to create my own event in memory of my Mom. The Gaetane Harvey Memorial Walk is a 53km walk throughout the streets of Belleville over the course of two days. This year’s walk will take place on the 24th and 25th of September. We will walk 1 kilometre for each year this earth was blessed with my mother’s love, laughter and kindness. The goal is to raise $15,000 for the Belleville General Hospital Foundation’s Cancer Care Campaign. But the walk isn’t just about her, as walkers register they bring their own stories; of loved ones lost, people in the midst of fighting this terrible disease and the joys of knowing a cancer survivor. The walk has become so much more and although my mom’s memory is at the heart of it, it has bloomed into something bigger. It is about a community of people coming together, strangers becoming friends, feet on pavement, kilometers logged, funds raised and making a difference no matter how big or small. When I began planning and organizing the first B4
Section B - Thursday, June 9, 2016
ever Gaetane Harvey Memorial Walk I thought it would be my sisters and I walking alongside a few friends. But it just naturally grew on its own. Last year was our first year and we had 14 walkers registered. Together we raised close to $9,000. This year I would love to have 30 to 40 walkers! Registration will close at the end of June or when I reach 40 walkers. I need your help! I need to get the Gaetane Harvey Memorial Walk noticed to get the word out to our community. Please help me spread the news about this 53km journey. And as I said to last years walkers, 53 km is no easy feat ... fighting cancer never is. So, take it one step at a time, one donation at a time and know that you are making a difference. People can register at bghf.ca (we are under the events section), they can also email me at geesgirls@hotmail.com for more information or like our Facebook page. Details on the routes will be made public later on. Thank you so much for your time, I look forward to hearing how you can help make the Gaetane Harvey Memorial Walk a huge success for 2016.

the real ‘star’ of this park, of course, for it’s the highest peak in North America (at 20,237 feet/6,168 m above sea level). It can even be argued that it’s the tallest vertical rise of any mountain peak in the world, for it begins much closer to sea level at its base than such higher mountains as Mount Everest. Mount Denali’s base to peak rise is about 18,000 feet/5,500 metres. I saw that it actually has two significant summits, with the South Summit being its highest. I also learned that Fly Denali often assists avid mountain climbers, trekkers, and sky divers by getting them to the Kahiltna Base Camp in the Alaska Range, in preparation for their particular extreme sport/endeavour. I previously stated that there was yet another top event on my particular flight, and that was, of course, the spectacular glacier landing itself! Just imagine the thrill of suddenly descending amid all those mountain peaks, after having just seen the highest mountain peak of all, and then having the powerful de Havilland
Turbine Beaver ski plane suddenly land and skid to a stop on a field of ice and snow. What a sled ride! We passengers then emerged from the plane and began to explore on foot. One individual even decided to make and throw a snowball! Most of us just stood in awe, breathed in the cool, fresh air, snapped a plethora of photos, and marvelled at the stunning scenery that surrounded us! We’d stepped into the Ice Age! We soon enough had to re-board the plane and return to the airport in Healy. Jim then drove me back to my accommodations, and we talked along the way. I learned that when the weather cooperates, there are scheduled flights at 8:30 a.m., noon, 3:15 p.m., and 6:15 p.m. I also learned that this extraordinary glacier landing adventure trek in Denali is said to be a “once in a lifetime experience” that this company offers on a daily basis: “We do once-in-a-lifetime every day.” For More Information: www.flydenali.com; phone: 1-877-770-2359.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Guilty until proven innocent? Dear Mr. Malette: I just finished reading your editorial about “online creeps” needing outing, and I must say that I am disappointed with your writing. I usually like your writing very much, but it is unworthy of you and of the Belleville News to use the language you used. Please don’t misunderstand - I believe that people arrested for child porn charges should be publicly named as much as you do. But I also
believe that they, like every other person arrested and charged with a crime, are innocent until proven guilty. Your sentence “... that snared so many online child porn creeps - sorry, alleged child porn creeps”, is playing word games at its worst. Your “guilty-until-proven-innocent” attitude has lost you some of my respect. Stephen Kirby Belleville
