‘Gentleman’s gentleman,’ business icon J.J. Stewart dies By Bill Freeman
Norwood – J.J. “Jack” Stewart is being remembered as a “gentleman’s gentleman,” a giving community leader, business stalwart, devoted family man and champion of old-fashioned courtesy. Considered “Mr. Norwood” by many, Stewart died Friday at the age of 102 just one month after helping the iconic business his father Fred acquired in 1918 celebrate its one-hundredth anniversary. His beloved wife Marguerite died in 2000. Stewart’s father Fred began to manage what was then the JJ Duffus garage in 1918 and purchased the business in 1926 with his son working there on weekends. He eventually joined his father in 1936 when it became Stewart Motors and a Dodge-Desoto-Chrysler dealership. It would become a fourth generation business operation with grandsons Dave and Mark joining their father John and grandfather. Over the next 80 years Stewart’s business prowess and penchant for customer service would help the business
expand into Peterborough and Campbellford; his reach within business circles was many times that and his reputation for civility and quiet community philanthropy would leave an indelible impression. “Much has been said about the enormous contributions Jack has made to his overall community [but] my thoughts instinctively reflected on Jack’s ability to treat everyone he met with respect and friendliness regardless of who they were,” Peterborough County J Murray Jones said. “I will always remember Jack as a man of warmth and caring [and] a man who was so proud of his community and his family,” Jones said. Fellow Norwood United churchgoer John Bennett remembered that in 1996 Stewart was the first to greet him as a newcomer to the church and Norwood. “He did that all the time and was always ready to greet a newcomer and make them feel welcome,” said Bennett. “My very first impression of him was how warm he made me feel towards the community. “J.J. in my mind was a gentleman’s
gentleman. He was a very generous soul who was always interested in the community.” Long-time friend and former township mayor Doug Pearcy called Stewart a “private person who displayed humility and showed true caring for his fellow man. “I witnessed many acts of kindness on behalf of the Stewart family,” Pearcy said. Pearcy joined Stewart and friends like Keith Brown, Don Clarke, Bob Jones and Bob Ough at informal monthly breakfasts sharing “jokes and laughter. “In his later year’s J.J. truly loved these events. I will miss a true friend and a man I truly respected.” Havelock-Belmont-Methuen Mayor Ron Gerow was also a good friend Please see “J.J.” on page 4
Jack Stewart was a dapper presence at J.J. Stewart Motors’ 100th anniversary celebrations last month at the Highway 7 Chrysler dealership that bore his name.

Campbellord – Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH) and the VON have partnered to offer the VON adult day program, which is designed to help people experiencing physical, social or cognitive challenges. Announcement of the program comes during World Alzheimer’s Month. The theme this year is Remember Me. “We’re pleased to partner with the VON to offer programs like this as part of our role as a Rural Health Hub, bringing together a variety of health service providers to support the needs of the aging population that defines our community,” said Jan Raine, chief nursing officer at CMH. “While much of our effort is focused on patients receiving acute care, we are working collaboratively with a growing network of health service and community service providers, like VON, to create a wraparound web of support for our growing senior community.” She said the goal of the partnership is to “enable seniors to maintain optimal health while they are hospitalized so they can return home or transition to the next level of care that best meets their needs.” The program is held Wednesdays and Fridays at the Campbellford Memorial Multicare Lodge, and is designed to offer engagement and relaxation in a secure and home-like setting. While the clients enjoy a day away from home, their caregivers enjoy a day of respite. Currently the VON operates eight adult day programs across the region in communities such as Campbellford, Cobourg, Curve Lake, Havelock, Lakefield, Peterborough, and Port Hope. Funding is provided in part by the Central East Local Health Integration Network (CE LHIN), community donations and a small daily client fee. The regular client fee for services is $19 per day, which includes refreshments, a meal and all activities. A fee subsidy is available where financial need is indicated. To become a client of the program, contact the respite service supervisor to learn more about the referral process by calling 1-866-654-9638 ext 6423 or 705-9155 ext 6423.

Tweed Studio Tour approaches 20th anniversary By Brett Mann
Greater Tweed Area – Brilliantly sunny and warm September weather helped make this year’s Tweed and Area Studio Tour one of the most successful yet. Pam Bailey-Brown, chair of the annual arts event reported that 19 artists spread across 15 studios, as well as in the Heritage Centre and the Marble Arts Centre, displayed their work this year. “I’ve gotten a lot of feedback, all positive,” said Bailey-Brown. “All the artists were pleased with the turnout [of visitors] and in some cases there were record numbers in attendance.” She estimates over 200 people came through her studio on Moneymore Road where her wheelthrown porcelain pottery was on display, as well as acrylic paintings by her son Jacob and stained glass works by local artist Linda Pauk.

Organizers offered free ‘passports’ to the studios as a means of keeping a rough track of the number of visitors. A tour of all the studios made for a ramble across a large part of the Tweed area, ranging from Crookston Road to Actinolite to the north, Roslin to the south and to the eastand over to a studio near Lime Lake in the Marlbank area. Five studios are located in the village of Tweed itself. Art media on display ranged from hand-made wooden bird houses to custom furniture and accessories, jewelry, quilts, textiles, oil, water colour and acrylic paintings as well as sculptures and photography. Suzanne Cavers is a noted local painter whose charming studio is located behind her home and fronted by a colourful and lovingly tended flower garden. Caver moved to Tweed in 2003 and works “mainly

in acrylics” in abstract and impressionistic styles. She noted that the Studio Tour was originally organized by Pam Bailey-Brown and Audrey Ross 19 years ago and is not a registered charitable group but a commercial endeavour as well as an artistic one. Brown reported that about 100 artists have participated over the years and that this year “sales were
great.” She said of the widespread exhibition, “everything was for sale.” Buoyed by the success of this year’s tour, the group will be holding its annual general meeting in October to plan for the 20th anniversary tour next year. “It will be special. We’re going to have a party and invite all the past members,” said Bailey-Brown.
J.J. Stewart dies at age 102 of its greatest supporters and community ambassadors. Jack has left a wonderful legacy and a mark on society that will last forever.” “The one thing that always struck me about Jack was that he always tried to do the right
thing,” friend and Norwood United church member Ron Scott said. “Little chats in his office led to decisions beneficial to his community,” Scott said. “He served as an example to all.” “Jack is definitely someone

who made a difference,” said Terry Stephens, a friend for over 50 years. “By crossing paths with him in so many ways through the church and organizations, I always found him to be a real gentleman, friendly and fair.” “He always impressed me because he seemed to have a knack to recall the name of everyone he ever met,” Stephens quipped.
“Jack is an icon in Norwood,” Norwood Agricultural Society secretary-manager Paul Quinlan said. “His example in the community was an example for all. He supported all community projects personally and financially. Everyone knew him, everyone treated him with respect. He always had time for a chat when you met him. “Jack’s presence in this town will be missed.”

Stirling and area knitters donate handmade gifts to Adopt-A-Child By Terry McNamee
Stirling—When women in Stirling start to knit, children are kept warm. Again this year, the Helping Hands knitters at St. Andrew’s
Presbyterian Church in Stirling worked hard to create knitted and crocheted hats, mittens, neck warmers and headbands for children of low-income working families and those on assistance. Overall, the Stirling group
donated 1,170 pieces this year, well up from last year’s total of just over 860. Also included in the total were 230 items created by three people from Belleville and the work of two Stirling residents who each made more than
160 hats. All of the knitted and crocheted items are made only from new wool, and the crafters make an effort to create items with bright, colourful designs. It is time-consuming work — it takes as long as eight hours to make one hat — but they love to do it. Thea Marriott of Stirling said Helping Hands has been knitting
and crocheting for various charitable groups for many years. “Our oldest member here is just turning 91,” she said. The group’s donation of knitted and crocheted winter items was picked up in person by Stirling-Rawdon Police Chief Dario Cecchin on Thursday, Sept. 22, for delivery to Adopt-A-Child. The program is organized by po-
lice from Stirling, Belleville and the Hastings and Prince Edward County OPP detachments to provide brand new winter outerwear to infants and children up to the age of 12. This year, another group at the church, the Presbees, donated $300 to Adopt-A-Child to help buy items such as winter jackets.

OPINION
Next Secretary-General: No Charisma Required It’s not an election, it’s a Selection. And although all the countries in the United Nations General Assembly have equal rights, some are more equal than others. Ban Ki-moon retires at the end of this year, and it’s time for the United Gwynne Dyer Nations to choose a new SecretaryGeneral. By the end of this year’s session of the General Assembly, in early October, we will know who it is. Which raises two questions: how do they make the choice, and why should anybody care? The secretary-general of the United Nations is, in some senses, the highest official on the planet, but the selection process is hardly democratic. In fact, it has traditionally been a process as shrouded in secrecy as a papal conclave. It is the Security Council’s fifteen members who pick the candidate, although all 192 members of the General Assembly then get to vote on their choice. And even on the Security Council, it’s only the views of the five permanent members (the P5) that really count, because each of the five great powers has a veto and the others don’t. This is why people with strong opinions and a record of taking decisive action don’t get the job. That sort of person would be bound to annoy one of the P5 great powers – Russia, Britain, China, France and the United States – or even all of them one after the other, so the entire system is designed to prevent a maverick with big ideas from slipping through. The secretary-general must never come from one of the great powers (that might give him access to enough resources to make a nuisance of himself), and the successful candidate should not be charismatic. The final choice is usually a “safe pair of hands”, some blameless diplomat from a middle or smaller power like the incumbent, a career diplomat from South Korea who ranks 32nd on the Forbes list of The World’s Most Powerful People. Candidates therefore tend to be relative unknowns. If you look through the current list of candidates, for example, the only two names you might recognise, even if you are a political junkie, are former New Zealand prime minister, Helen Clark, now Adminis-

trator of the United Nations Development Programme, and Antonio Guterres, former prime minister of Portugal and later UN High Commissioner for Refugees. But who is Irina Bokova, Natalia Gherman, or Igor Luksic? They are, in that order, a former acting foreign minister of Bulgaria, the current foreign minister of Moldova, and a former foreign minister of Montenegro. Well, all right, Bokova is also the current director-general of UNESCO, but you still didn’t know her name, did you? You might also ask why Eastern Europe is a whole separate region at all, given that its total population from Poland to Bulgaria is less than the population of Bangladesh, Brazil, Indonesia or Pakistan. Same reason: it used to be seen as a separate region because it was occupied by Soviet troops and most of its governments were ultimately controlled from Moscow. History looms very large at the UN. There is some progress. Half of this year’s candidates are female, and there is a strong feeling around the UN that it is high time for a woman to become secretary-general. There is also an attempt this time to make the process more “transparent”, but it is otherwise unchanged. The Security Council still comes up with a single candidate who doesn’t offend any of the great powers, and the General Assembly then rubber-stamps its choice. It’s basically a civil service job, suitable for persons of cautious disposition. How could it be otherwise? You only get what you pay for, and no great power is yet ready to pay the price in terms of its own sovereignty of having a powerful independent leader at the United Nations. What would be the point of choosing such a leader anyway, so long as the UN has no military forces or financial resources of its own? It would only lead to frustration: the secretary-general can’t act independently of the will of the great powers because they designed it that way. The job is still worth doing, and there is never a shortage of applicants. The secretarygeneral can speak out as the conscience of the world when there are massive violations of human rights, and once in a while she can actually organise a peace-keeping mission to stop the horrors (if all the great powers agree). And she becomes, by virtue of her position, the most striking symbol of that more cooperative, less violent world that most politicians, diplomats and ordinary citizens actually aspire to. But we are still a very long way from the promised land.

AHL announcement ends years of political drama Editorial by Stephen Petrick Belleville Mayor Taso Christopher is probably too polite to say it publicly, but I bet there’s a part of him that wants to call up Gord Simmonds and say, “how do you like us now?” Simmonds was the owner of the Belleville Bulls until he sold the Ontario Hockey League franchise to a Hamilton sports owner suddenly on a spring day in 2015. Simmonds had repeatedly said the city-owned Yardmen Arena was getting too old and needed to be upgraded or replaced for the team to be viable in Belleville long term. The status of the Yardmen and to what extent the city should work with Simmonds to keep the Bulls in Belleville then became a hot issue, leading up to the municipal election of 2014. From the moment Christopher was elected, the Bulls days were numbered. Simmonds and Christopher didn’t see eye to eye and, I suspect, had a deep-rooted dislike for each other. That became ridiculously obvious to me, following roughly 10 minutes of interviews I conducted with both of them upon hearing news of the Bulls sale in March of 2015. Christopher, rightly so, was upset that the team was yanked from Belleville suddenly and the city was given no opportunity by the OHL to respond to Simmonds’ Hamilton offer. One would think league officials would have given Belleville that chance, since it had been an OHL city or more than 30 years at that point. But, Simmonds insisted it didn’t matter. The team was destined to lose money year after year if the Yardmen wasn’t upgraded, he said, and there was no other potential owner looking to buy the team. Plus, he said, the city was about to let the Bulls’ lease on the Yardmen expire before entering into any discussion with him about a long-term investment in the arena. On that point, Christopher had an interesting
answer: “You can’t make an investment unless you have a solid relationship with the tenant,” said the mayor for an article published in these pages on March 19, 2015. So Simmonds, wherever he is today, must be stunned at the news that was announced Monday. City council had voted to spend roughly $20 million to upgrade and expand the Yardmen Arnea, so the Ottawa Senators can bring their American Hockey League affeliate team to the city for the 2017-18 season. It’s the type of announcement Simmonds wanted, but never got. It means one of two things (or maybe both). One, the city learned the hard way that, yes, it had to expand and upgrade the Yardmen Arena to keep competitive hockey in Belleville. And two, the city felt more comfortable making an investment with a completely new parter – Senators owner Eugene Melnyk – than it ever did with Simmonds. During the Bulls’ last two years, the community’s interest in the team and the once rowdy atmosphere at the Yardmen fizzled. By the time the Bulls were sold, the team had one of the poorest attendance rates in the OHL, with only about 2,500 per game. Was that the fault of the owner, the coaches and players (the Bulls were one of the poorer teams in the East in their two final years), or the fan base itself ? Hard to say – there’s good arguments to make both for and against in each of these cases. But we know that, for the AHL to succeed in Belleville, attendance rates must be way higher than what the Bulls saw in their final years. Fortunately, for hockey fans here, there’s an owner willing to bet Belleville can be a great hockey city again. And there’s a municipality willing to work with that owner to try and make it happen.

and how could the unique features or characteristics of Campbellford, as well as activities, be incorporated into the design. Participants came up with numerous proposals, involving such things as seating, trees, artistic panels, canopy structure, display box, fountain, archway, signage, game space, miniamphitheatre and special lighting. It will be left to consultants Brian Basterfield, president of Basterfield

Former president of Community Living remembered as a role model and pioneer By John Campbell
Campbellford – Jason Rae, who died suddenly Sept. 15, will be remembered for many things – his constant smile, his love of dancing, his joy in playing ball, and, most prominently, his mark in history when he became the first person with an intellectual disability to become president of a Community Living association in Ontario in 2003. All this and more of his life was celebrated at a special tribute held in his honour by Community Living Campbellford/Brighton at its community resource centre in Campbellford Sept. 21. So many attended that the Acorn Room was overflowing, and several hundred paid their respects the night before at the Weaver Family Funeral Home. “Jason’s journey in life has touched us all in different ways, and we’ve been blessed to have him in our lives,” executive director Nancy Brown said in an interview. “He will always be in our hearts and not forgotten. “What I found so amazing is that Jason had far more connections than any of us could imagine,” she said. “He brought us all together.” She said he did so by living a life of inclusion in the community, being a member of Rotary, working at the agency’s office supplies store, and playing in the Campbellford Men’s Friday Night 3-Pitch League, where he was affectionately known as J-Dog. “He was a role model, he was a pioneer, he was proof that your dreams can come true ... if you set your mind to it, even if people have told you it’s not possible over and over again,” said Dawn Lee, director of quality enhancement and community development. “That’s what I think a lot of people will remember about him.” Lee said Rae talked often about being bullied in school and being told what he would never be able to do, such as earning a driver’s licence or buying a car – two things he ended up doing.
“It scared him, but it also motivated him to want to prove them wrong, and he was proud (of what he accomplished),” she said. Rae had served on the agency’s board of directors six years before becoming its president, and he remained a board member until his death at age 41, possibly the result of a heart attack. “He always had a smile on his face, always had a good joke, and always had a story about his wife (Jennifer),” Lee said. “Being her husband was the most important thing to him.” The couple were married in 2008. Rae was also “an awesome dancer,”
Lee said. “He was always kicking up the dance floor.” “He was a kind individual ... (who) was always enthusiastic,” said Gary Wilson, president of the three-pitch league and Rae’s teammate. The league honoured Rae by raising $5,715 for Rae’s wife at its seasonending tournament. “It was wonderful how the whole town came together and supported our tournament,” Wilson said. J-Dog’s T-shirt was also on display “to show he was still there in spirit,” and players knelt together on the ball field as a show of respect. The tournament has been renamed
the J-Dog Memorial to commemorate general meeting, which observed a Rae, who was “the face of Community minute’s silence in recognition of Living,” Wilson said. “Jason thought Rae’s accomplishments, which includso much of the ball league.

the same time “address the issues that had been raised by the public.” They include higher boat traffic on the Trent River and with it shoreline erosion, noise and increased risks for swimmers, said Bob Hall, who lives a kilometre downstream from the trailer park. He will be making a presentation at the pre-hearing as a participant, rather than as an appellant.
“It’s changing the character of the river,” Hall said. “It was very gradual, initially, then boom, it got kind of out of control.” The treatment of wastewater onsite is another huge concern, he said. Peters said the municipality tried “to make the best of a bad situation. Not a good solution, not a bad solution, but it’s what we thought was a solution.”
With a site plan agreement in place, Trent Hills now has “a lot more ability to go back to court” and enforce its terms if there are any violations, he said. Hall isn’t impressed, saying, “The contents of the bylaw contravene a number of acts,” and the site plan agreement that council members approved gives the park owner much more than they were entitled to under the law.

Madoc and District Chamber host appreciation barbecue By Diane Sherman
Madoc - The Madoc and District Chamber of Commerce hosted an end of season barbecue for those who actively contributed to the betterment of economic growth in the district over the past year. The Madoc Lions Club was in charge of the barbecue, with additional goodies provided by the local Hidden Goldmine bakery for dessert. Chamber coordinator Leigh Anne Lavender shared accomplishments of the chamber to date, noting the ‘Why Madoc?’ campaign has been going well. It promotes local shops and encourages residents to shop locally with two draws this year for gift certifi-
cates from village businesses. The gathering was held in the newly built Trinity Memorial Park, a significant addition to the downtown core offering a pleasant resting area and location for events, such as entertainment during the classic cruise nights this past summer. The Chamber is now planning the Santa Claus Parade to be held Saturday, Nov. 26, their last event of the year before preparation for Canada 150 activities in 2017. The Chamber’s base in the library also serves as a satellite office for the Community Futures Development Corporation, which hosts workshops for businesses, both private and public, in website design, bookkeeping, social media, procuring business
start-up financing and other resources. The benefits of Chamber membership include social media marketing, discounts in data processing, postal deliveries, insurance, collective advertising and workshops geared to create a positive economic environment. The Chamber presented the Lions Club with a certificate of appreciation for their contribution to bettering the community through their work this year. Metroland Media was pleased to be acknowledged for their ongoing coverage of events and businesses in the area. For information or to join the Chamber of Commerce, contact Leigh Anne Lavender at 613-4731616.

C.O.P.E. announces closure of The Dough Box
By Diane Sherman
Madoc - The Dough Box bakery in Madoc has provided residents with delicious baked goods for nine years from their shop at the four corners of the village. Wednesday, Sept. 21, was their last day for sales. The shop is for rent and baking equipment will be up for sale, said executive director Beverly Lloyd. The bakery provided employment training to adults with developmental disabilities, shaping them to cope with life in a worka-day world, what Lloyd calls “transferable working skills”. Restructuring within the Madoc C.O.P.E. (Constructive Opportunities for Progressive Employment) corporation will lead to other opportunities for clients. “We see this not as loosing a program, but opening the doors to new options for our clients,” Lloyd said in an interview on Sept. 26. Eleven individuals worked at the bakery. Five have gone on to
contract positions with a local firm. Many will continue work at the Madoc car wash, another employment base managed by the agency. “We will be working with individuals and their families to find suitable positions for those who want to keep working,” she said. “This is an opportunity to build relations with local businesses.” Lloyd says a change is stimulating for both the agency and clients. “As with any change, there will be a transition period,” she said. “However, changes can make it possible for new initiatives to support those in the program.” The agency is a member of Community Living Ontario and serves an average of 60 clients from throughout Central Hastings, each active with in-house programs and community excursions. “We hope this will give our clients a chance to try new things, volunteer or find paid work in

Staffing agency opens doors for rural job seekers By Diane Sherman
Central Hastings - Residents in Eldorado, Tweed, Stirling, Madoc and Marmora have seen Central Hastings transit buses pass through their area, up Highway 62 for a special pick up in Eldorado, across Highway 7, down Highways 37 and 14 into Belleville, daily for the past few years. There are now 33 stops along the route, with a few whistle stops. It is this transit system which prompted Theresa Ayres, branch manager of KAS Staffing Limited, to open a satellite office at Central Hastings Support Network (CHSN), 151 St.
Lawrence Street East in Madoc. Ayres says she has employers wanting workers, but not enough workers to fill positions. “The biggest issue for rural residents has been transportation,” she said. “This transit system fills that gap for them and us.” CHSN director Jean McDonnell and transit board chair Tony Long worked with Ayres to set up the service. Long says the board is willing to vary bus schedules to accommodate shift work. “Our goal is to get people working, to lift them out of poverty,” Long said. “That
is the goal of CHSN.” Job seekers on social assistance can get help with transit costs from the Madoc office of Ontario Works. Job placement workers Diane DeJong and Lisa McEwan attended the opening on Wednesday, Sept. 21, to get details for their clients. They both feel KAS will open doors for many willing to work. A one-way trip from Madoc to Belleville costs $11. “If a benefactor was willing to donate $1 per rider, it would be $10,” Long said. A monthly pass is $200. KAS serves clients in
transportation, administration, manufacturing, logistics and skilled trades. Ayres has been with KAS for 15 years.The agency opened in 1987. The Belleville office is at 525A Dundas Street East. The Madoc office is open Wednesdays from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekly. Job seekers can use the transit system to bring in their resumes or email them to resumesbelleville@ kasstaffing.com, and set an appointment. For transit information contact CHSN at 613-4735255.

Bridge Hospice hires director of clinical services and operations Warkworth - Kerri-Anne Wilson is the new director of clinical services and operations at The Bridge Hospice. Chair Jill Hutcheon made the announcement in a recent press release. “The board of directors is thrilled to welcome Kerri-Anne,” said Hutcheon. “We look forward to her leadership and expertise, which will build on the existing excellence in care and compassion that The Bridge Hospice provides.” She said that, as director, Wilson will provide professional and practice leadership, ensuring safe, effective and caring quality of service, coordinating admissions and care delivery by Saint Elizabeth staff and hospice volunteers and managing operations. Wilson is a registered nurse with extensive experience in public health and providing leadership in a variety of health care positions. Most recently, she was director of primary health care at the Gateway Community Health Centre in Tweed. She has also been involved with the Palliative Care/End of Life working group for the Rural Hastings Health Link, where she focused on techniques to enhance the provision of quality palliative and end-of-life care within
that region. As well, she participated in the South East Local Health Integration Network (SE LHIN) on advance care planning. This is a homecoming of sorts for her, as she was among the first resident care volunteers when The Bridge Hospice opened in June 2013. “I am very excited for the opportunity to be back at The Bridge Hospice, to once again work alongside this exceptional team of volunteers and providers,” Wilson said. “It truly is a privilege to be able to give back to the community that I call home. “We have all witnessed how a small group of dedicated, passionate individuals inspired an entire community to come together in support of those who are nearing the end of their life’s journey. I look forward to leading the team in continuing to provide exceptional, quality care and support to our residents, families and friends, giving them the opportunity to live every moment to the end of life, in a warm, supportive home environment.”

Children learn about bee dancing, fire building and more By Sue Dickens
Campbellford – Joining in with a “frog symphony” composed of local frogs, participating in “bee dancing” and learning to use a hand drill bow to start a fire were just some of the fun activities planned for kids at the Campbellford branch of the Trent Hills library. Award-winning educator Jacob Rodenburg, executive director of Camp Kawartha, entertained children age six to 12 at the library recently with a goal to teach them to know more and care more for their local community and environment. “The program was awesome! The kids had a blast, learned a whole lot, and had lots of laughs. Jacob was amazing,” said Brianne Parr, children’s librarian. “We started upstairs in the library where Jacob taught the children various bird sounds and what times of day we hear
them, then we moved on to crickets. After a few activities we headed outside where he taught them about animal instincts and hunting.” The highlight of the morning was an optional “blanket toss” game during which kids were individually hoisted up in the air on a canvas parachute. “After that Jacob dressed up as a French huntsman and told the children a story about creating fire. He then demonstrated how this is done using a hand drill bow,” Parr explained. “And then we had fire. The children were amazed and each participated in blowing on the embers to get it started,” she exclaimed. “To end the program, Rodenburg took a huge bow drill and with all the children and help from some parents, attempted to make fire using the huge manmade bow drill. We got smoke, it was an incredible

program.” Rodenburg has taught in the field of outdoor education for more than 20 years. He recently spearheaded the construction of one of Canada’s most sustainable buildings at Trent University. This unique environment centre will be used to teach children and future teachers about sustainable living practices, alternative energy and conservation.
Alzheimer Society’s programs being offered again Campbellford - Family members and care partners of people with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias are once again being offered education programs in Campbellford in October and November. “We have our Care Essentials learning series for caregivers and family members of individuals with dementia as well as our First Steps learning series for both caregivers and the person with dementia to attend together,” explained Sarah Cook, public education co-ordinator with the Alzheimer Society of Peterborough, Kawartha Lake, Northumberland, Haliburton. “First Steps is a four-week learning series that will help you understand dementia and
the changes you are experiencing,” said Cook. These First Link learning series program launched in 2008 will be held here again on Wed., Oct. 5, 12, 19, 26 and Nov. 2 with Care Essentials in the morning and First Steps in the afternoon. “Research has shown that when people learn about dementia early in the illness, they manage better. At this series, you will learn about types of dementia and how changes in the brain affect day to day functioning. You will also identify coping strategies and begin to plan for the future.” Both of these series are free but people need to register and can do so by contacting Diana Primavesi, client support coordinator at the Peterborough Alzheimer Society office.
As well the Society is offering the MacQuarrie Education Series which will take place on Wed., Nov. 9 from 1 to 3 p.m., in Campbellford and the topic will be, The Long Goodbye: Understanding Ambiguous Loss and Grief in Dementia. “Ambiguous loss is a type of loss you experience when a person with dementia is physically here, but may not be mentally or emotionally present in the same way as before,” Cook explained. “This will be our fifth year holding our annual MacQuarrie Education series in Campbellford,” she added. This is also a free series and again people need to register by calling the Peterborough Alzheimer Society office at 705748-5131 or 1-800-561-2588.

Jitterbug Jive comes to Stirling Festival Theatre on Oct. 2
By Terry McNamee
Stirling — If you’ve never experienced the excitement of watching dancers doing the jive to the beat of a swinging big band, you are in for a treat this week. And if you have, you know that the Stirling Festival Theatre is definitely the place to be on Sunday! “Jitterbug Jive: A Swing Dance Showcase” will be at the theatre at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 2, with swing dancers recreating jumpin’ jives, two-steps,
tangos, cha-chas and much more. They will be dancing to the music of Andy Sparling and The Commodores Orchestra, Canada’s longest-operating big band. “In the heyday of the big bands, it was all about the dancing,” said Sparling. “The Commodores will be performing great hits of the big band era, with champion amateur dancers Eloise Magliocchetti and Leon Tsebo.” The show also will include vocalist Jeanette Arsenault,
who is making her big-band debut, and crooner Craig Parry performing Frank Sinatra hits. The Commodores are based in Belleville an have played with some of the greats, including a gig with pianist and bandleader Teddy Wilson. “A pair of Grammy-winning musicians —Boss Brass alumni Brian Barlow (drums) and Bob Leonard (saxophone) — perform with the band and contribute arrangements (Barlow), while Juno-nominated saxophonist Dan Bone provides one of Canada’s best tenor sax
swing and jazz sounds,” said Sparling. The band will celebrate its 90th anniversary in 2018, and Sparling is writing a book about the band. It will be published by the Hastings County Historical Society. “Ninety years is a lot of ground to cover, and I need
help,” Sparling said. “I’m looking for anyone who has memories, memorabilia, stories, or photos they’d care to share. Maybe there are a few attics in eastern Ontario that have some long-forgotten stuff in them that could help shed some light.” Tickets for Sunday’s show are $24 for Stirling Festival
Theatre members, $26 for seniors and $28 for non-members. They are available at the box office next to the theatre on Front Street in downtown Stirling, by phone at 613-395-2100 or on-line at www.stirlingfestivaltheatre.com. There are additional processing fees for phone and on-line orders.
The Commodores Orchestra from Belleville will be performing in a show called “Jitterbug Jive” this Sunday, Oct. 2, at the Stirling Festival Theatre.

New water tower rises over Havelock Havelock – Construction work on Havelock’s new elevated water storage tower is on track and on schedule and should be completed sometime in November, says Public Works manager Brian McMillan. “It should be up and running by the middle part of November or later November,” McMillan told township councillors.
“Everything you see now, all the big stuff, is done. The concrete pedestal is up, the elevated tank’s on the top. Now, all that’s going to take place is the watermain and all the stuff at the bottom of the pedestal, all the mechanical.” The old tower will be decommissioned in December. The project’s being done by Landmark Structures Company. McMillan says he’s impressed
with how the township’s logo stands out. The municipality is replacing it’s 58-year-old Havelock standpipe on Concession Street with a $2 million glass-fused elevated tank thanks to a $1,666,432 Ontario Community Infrastructure Fund grant. The municipality is contributing $185,000 drawing on its Ontario Municipal Partnership Fund allocation. The new tower is at the same loca-
tion but back about 10 metres. The aging water tower was last upgraded in 1985 and a recent consultant’s report indicated it faced upwards of $300,000 in repairs. McMillan says there will be no need for painting or sand-blasting every ten or 15 years. Along with reduced maintenance concerns and costs, the new tower will mean more water for fire protection and increased pressure in the

That’s what sets us apart from a professional house organizer.” Her presentation was a hands-on event. “I bring things for people to look at and everybody identifies with the stuff I’ve got,” O’Neil said. “It’s about getting people to think about starting to downsize and organize now and not wait for the family to deal with later.” Since downsizing can be overwhelming, so she tells people to do a little bit every day. Helping hoarders is one of her specialties. “I have certificates in chronic disorganize and extreme disorganize, which is hoarding, and I am a psychotherapy counsellor,” O’Neil said. “It’s never any one thing that causes this disorder, it’s usually a group of things, which is why it’s not easy.” People with disorders such

Without the OCIF grant, the township would just be able to do maintenance on the old tower, McMillan said at the time of the provincial funding announcement. “Now we’re able to get a bigger tower. For the (641 users) to come up with close to $2 million, we can’t raise the rates enough to cover that. It would not be affordable for residents.” “Certainly a lot of work has taken place over the summer,” Mayor Ron Gerow added, referring to both the new tower and King Street reconstruction project. “Once we get approvals for the long-term care home and other [things] we’re ready and set to go. There’s no excuses.”

Another year of progress at the Aron as its finances continue to improve By John Campbell
Campbellford – Aron Theatre Cooperative continues to make great strides in improving itself as a venue for people to enjoy movies, live shows and other cultural events together. In his final report as president of the not-for-profit business, Mark White cited the installation of a new boiler in the basement and long-awaited black sound and light insulation on the theatre walls as among the co-operative’s accomplishments for 2015. They were made possible with funding provided by the Ontario Trillium Foundation and the CampbellfordSeymour Community Foundation. The two funding bodies will assist in the completion of other major building renovations Aron has planned: repair of the roof, improvements to the facade, installation of new siding on the exterior walls, and refurbishment of the old washrooms. The cost of the work, including taxes, is $100,000. The organization also recorded its “first surplus from operations,” $3,844 (not including grants) in 2015, and retired its first and second mortgages, he said in his report the Aron‘s sixth annual general meeting Sept. 19. “That means we‘re doing well,” said the chair of the finance committee and founding member Russ Christianson, who pointed out that sales
revenue from films was up “pretty substantially,” climbing to $138,547 in 2015 from $125,983 the previous year. The theatre‘s “cash position continues to get stronger,” he said. The surplus was “really a testament to all the hard work” White had done. White said his years as president was “an incredible experience” and he promised to continue to volunteer at the Aron. Christianson also praised the many other volunteers who contribute so much of their time to keep the theatre running. He also commended Aron‘s new operations manager, Joe Donato, the former co-owner of the theatre in Trenton who came out of retirement to fill the position that had become vacant. “He‘s doing an excellent job,” Christianson said. The theatre tries to “get the best [movies] we think will fit the audiences here,” he said, “but we need other kinds of events,” that aren‘t screenings of Hollywood movies, such as live concerts or movies that “are special,” such as its annual selection of hits drawn from the Toronto International Film Festival. Aron‘s series begins its sixth season with a gala Oct. 5. Christianson said “it‘s exciting” to see so many young people “embracing the theatre” as their numbers have helped bolster attendance figures, enabling Aron to record a number of

sellouts over the summer months. The theatre had been “really in decline” before it became a co-operative, which installed a digital projector that enabled it to show movies upon release. Christianson got his wish to resign from the board when enough people put their names forward to serve as directors. He will remain involved, however, as an adviser.
Mark White said his time as president of Aron was “an incredible experience.” He and his wife, Elizabeth Renaud, one of the board‘s new members, were presented with life-time memberships in the co-operative at its annual general meeting. Photo by John Campbell
Marmora Turkey Shoot hits the mark By Margriet Kitchen
Marmora – There’s nothing quite like the camaraderie of a fund raising competition that includes all ages to bring smiles and laughter on a warm fall day. That was the case at the Marmora Fair Board Turkey shoot competition on Saturday the 24 September. Starting at 10:30 a.m. and well into the afternoon, the shooters did their best to make their best target shots to win a turkey, just in time for Thanksgiving. The shoot is held spring and fall,

with proceeds going to help support the annual fall fair. At $2 per shot, for ten rounds over 75 yards, those with a steady hand and good eye turned in some impressive results. Winners names and number of turkeys won were, Bill Clay, 2; Todd Booth, 2; Steven Bedore, 1; Ken Nelson, 2; Dave McKinnon, 2. The last and the youngest winner of the day was seven year old Chance Marley with 1. This was Chance’s third turkey shoot experience. His efforts were rewarded through the patient coaching of one of the seniors at the event, Jim Cuddy. “Jim would show Chance to line up the sights properly, and to squeeze the trigger ever so gently, and the result was that he hit the target consistently, with the last shot right near the centre” said Jim’s wife, Suzan. The day was a success for everyone, with sandwiches, snacks and drinks available at the shooting location, a naturally hilly, well managed activity field just south of Marmora.

Drumming Circle brings peace, meditation, and quiet reflection By Margriet Kitchen
Marmora – Janice Chrysler of Mindful Journey in Marmora hosted a drumming circle at the Marmora Dam park area on the evening of Tuesday, Sept. 20. Women from Marmora, Madoc, Cordova and Havelock all gathered to enjoy the natural setting near the rushing water of the spillway which had served the original mill of the 1820. Stone and cement pieces of the remaining structure partly encircle the grassy lawn, and into this setting the participants enjoyed the quiet ‘Journey’ that Chrysler introduced through rhythmic drumming, with others joining in on their own hand made drums and other instruments such as the rainmaker. This is a length of bamboo closed at both ends and filled with seeds, which make a pleasant water-like noise as the pipe is
tipped back and forth. The ceremony was begun in a traditional native fashion, with each woman being cleansed with the essence of a sage smudge in preparation for quiet meditation. Recognition of the importance of the four points of the compass, the heavens above and the earth below was expressed by the group, as the elements of ancestors, personal strength, the gift of nature and so on were named. The group was carrying on a tradition started long before recorded history, as people, usually women, have always searched for a time and place to bring quiet and renewal into their lives. The evening contained common threads of respect, peace and of course, meditation and personal introspection. “I’m metaphysical, I’m open to everything,” Chrysler explained in her opening remarks. “Tonight we will take a journey,
and each of you will be able to take part intuitively. Here, the water element brings negative ions, a positive impact for negative presence around the individual.” Throughout the quiet, insistent, soothing heartbeat of the drum, those present were drawn into their own place of reflection and introspection with Chrysler as the guide, taking each through a journey with her drumbeat steadily sounding like a heart-beat, increasing in tempo and intensity and volume. The sound eventually blended with the sounds of the rushing water nearby. Slowly the beat decreased until almost silent, and only the rushing water could be heard as darkness fell and stars appeared in the clear sky. As the ceremony came to an Janice Chrysler, leader of the drumming circle held at Marmora dam, prepared each parend, the women enjoyed some ticipant with a cleansing smudge of sage wafted with a feather fan to cleanse the negaquiet moments to visit before re- tive aura and bring a soothing sense of quiet for the evening’s meditation.

Centre Hastings discusses public forum results By Diane Sherman
TICO#50007364
Madoc - In a special council meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 20, Mayor Tom Deline with Deputy Mayor Shelby Kramp-Neuman and Councillors Bob Hadley, Mike Kerby and Eric Sandford, assisted by staff, concluded three immediate plans of action as a result of data from two public forums held June 20 and 23. The first is increased communication with constituents, available through written reports and social media. The second is to tender competitive proposals from other benefit package providers for all employees. The third is to have another public forum in a central location, to present the results of the June meetings and stimulate further discussion.
A communication issue, expressed by a resident at the Moira Hall meeting, was that the lower sector of the municipality does not get the same newspaper, thus they are not abreast of municipal activity. It was agreed that, with two tax bills going out per year, a news-letter could be included, and updates should be available on social media. However, time used by staff to do these things became an issue of cost. That will be discussed later. Kramp-Neuman said residents deserve the facts to be presented clearly, so no assumptions are made, “And that,” she said, “takes communication.” Sandford supports shopping around for better rates on employee benefit packages. Hadley said he had to pay half of his benefits when work-

ing with the government. “I was amazed to see us paying 100 per cent of benefits,” he said. He said he believes employees appreciate a benefit package and would be willing to contribute just to have it. Council agreed new employees will be subject to partial payment of their benefits, and agencies will be called for proposals. Sandford said the next forum should be held in the middle of the municipality. “Holding two meetings just increases the division between residents,” he said. Sandford is an advocate for uniting residents of north and south Centre Hastings. Since amalgamation, the division has been evident. Former Hunting-
don Township residents feel they are being taxed for services they don’t use. A Fuller Road resident said he had never used the arena, park, medical centre or swimming pool. Residents in the south tend to use Stirling recreational facilities, for which Centre Hasting pays a share. There are still many gaps in reaching the goal of a sustainable plan for the future of Centre Hastings, but council sees these as first steps toward a unified plan.

New York Times best-selling author coming to Hastings By Bill Freeman
Hastings – It’s a hot date every September at the Hastings Public Library. The annual Friends of the Hastings Library author’s night returns Friday, Sept. 30, and organizers have hit another grand slam with New York Times author Susanna Kearsley on stage at the Civic Centre. The Brantford, ON, native is one of the luminaries of historical and modern gothic fiction. Her work consistently finds places on international bestseller lists and Romance Writers award citations. The former museum curator said she “fell in love with stories” at age 2. She has now published 12 novels: 11 as Susanna Kearsley and one, Every Secret Thing, under her “alter ego” Emma Cole. Her latest, A Desperate Fortune, was published in 2015 and has garnered strong reviews and accolades. A 13th book, Bellwether, is expected next spring. Kearsley’s appearance in Hastings follows a string of successes
New York Times bestselling writer Susanna Kearsley will be featured at this year’s Friends of the Hastings Library Author’s Night on Friday, Sept. 30.

for the Friends, who have welcomed an outstanding and diverse pool of writers over the years, including Jane Urquhart, Drew Hayden Taylor and Camp X bestseller Lynn Phillip Hodgson. The Toronto Star has called Kearsley a “master storyteller.” “[It is] smart historical fiction which isn’t afraid to assume the best of its readers,” Robert J. Wiersema writes of A Desperate Fortune. Wiersema called the book “a propulsive, powerful read, absorbing and affirming.” “A Desperate Fortune educates and entertains and manages to be wonderfully romantic at the same time,” adds Globe and Mail reviewer Marissa Stapley. Kearsley has always loved writing, but never thought it was something she could do for a living, so she followed a pathway into museums. “But then I finished my first novel, and that feeling was like nothing else,” she said. “I realized writing was the thing that I was meant to do, the thing that made me happiest.” It took persistence and four long years for the book, Undertow, to get published but it opened the door to possibilities. Her second novel, Mariana, won the ₤10,000 Transworld Publishers Catherine Cookson Fiction competition. The event starts at 7:30 p.m. Admission is free, but donations are appreciated.
Johanne Maddison and the Dream Angels ready for Run for the Cure By Bill Freeman
Havelock – It’s a milestone CIBC Run for the Cure for Havelock’s Johanne Maddison and her Dream Angels team. The team with members from around the region will top the $250,000 mark for funds raised over 16 years with the $20,000 they expect to raise for the Oct. 2 event. “I am happy. We raise good money [and] my team is always strong,” said Maddison, a team coordinator for the event at Peterborough’s Del Crary Park that will feature at least 16 teams in a fundraising effort for the Canadian Breast
Cancer Foundation (CBCF). Maddison has been called an “inspiring changemaker” for her 17-year association with the event as a fundraiser and volunteer. She first participated event in 2000, and the following year launched the Dream Angels as a tribute to all those women, like her mother and aunt, who battled cancer. Her mother lost her battle to brain and lung cancer in 2000 and her aunt passed away in 2005 after conquering breast cancer for five years. In their first year, the Dream Angels raised $6,000. Last year, they collected $33,000, bringing their 15-year total to $239,007. An estimated 25,000 women and 220 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer this year, and Maddison said events like Run for the Cure have helped researchers in vital ways.

common cancer diagnosis in women worldwide. One-third of women who are diagnosed will eventually die from the disease. Since 1986, the CBCF has invested more than $360-million in breast cancer research. Mortality rates have dropped 44 per cent since their peak in the mid-nineties. The CIBC run is a very public way of reminding people of the importance of prevention and early detection, Maddison said, and that’s why she’s happy to see more young women participating in the event. “I’m glad to see young women 18 to 20 on board, because when you’re 20, they feel they’re invincible. It’s important that the young ones learn about their breasts. It’s important to learn about that.” Maddison is also pleased to see so many more survivors participating in the event. “With all the research and treatments it’s so much better than it was,” she said.

Nemesis settling in, need sponsor, billets By Bill Freeman
Norwood – With J.J. Stewart Motors onside as a key team sponsor, the Norwood Nemesis were pumped up for last weekend’s Canadian Premier Junior Hockey League opener Sunday night against the Almonte Jr. Stars. They lost the opener, but are settling into routine in Norwood with the home opener out of the way. The club kicked off CPJHL action Saturday in Maxville against the Glengarry Highlanders, taking a 9-2 thumping in that game. The nine-team CPJHL is in its inaugural season as a “developmental” program for junior age players. “It’s been challenging and exciting, too, for all the kids who have been there and working hard,” head coach and general manager Chad Birkhof said during a casual press conference at Stewart Motors, where he introduced team leaders Connor Sikma and Garrett Ouellette.
It’s no secret that Birkhof has been working overtime trying to recruit players, with a short window to put together a roster heading into opening weekend, but he has 12 players signed with a couple more on board this weekend. He’s even prepared to dress assistant GM Tyler Kelsh if necessary. And he continues to look for players. “The effort the group has done to try to get them out is incredible,” he said. “We’re literally six months behind the eight ball. We’ve literally gone from four players signed to 12 in basically three weeks, which is pretty good. We’ve got some good skill players, some veteran players and a lot of speed.” Birkhof would like to have more local kids, but said it’s been hard because they’re committed to playing midget or juvenile. He remains optimistic, but will not beg for players. “If they see we have a program and it’s going to be successful they’ll jump on board.” He’d like to add a couple more play-
ers to the active roster and four or five to the non-active roster. “We want to make sure we have a competitive product on the ice at all times,” he said. “Goaltending is not a problem. If we could have signed goalies, we would have had two teams! “We may not be the most skilled team but I think structure, discipline and hard work can overcome (that).” The club is still looking for sponsors and billets. “I’m excited about it,” Oshawa minor Generals grad Garrett Ouellette said. “It looks like good hockey. They have a strong organization.” The offensive-minded defenseman has played in the Greater Metro Junior League, another independent developmental league. He wants to bring leadership to the Nemesis dressing room. Steve Stamkos is his favourite player. “I like the way he relaxes and controls the play and thinks the game through,” Ouellette said. “I’m getting antsy and ready to go,”
Newcastle native Connor Sikma added. “I’m extremely excited to see what the level of play’s going to be.” The big defenseman played for the Haliburton Wolves of the GMHL last year and prides himself on two-way play and a style modelled after Scott Stevens and Drew Doughty. “Never back down, go into the corners, grit and grind,” he said. “When Chad approached us, we were certainly on board in some manner,” Dave Stewart said. “We do like to sponsor sports teams, and hockey is dear to our hearts,” the former Norwood Vipers owner and captain said. “It’s been a bit of a rush for (Chad). He’s certainly behind the eight-ball as far as recruiting and time line. It’s nice to have something like this in town. Maybe some of our old Vipers fans will go down and support them. “This is a hockey town; it has been for a long, long time and will continue to be so.”

Nemesis drop home opener 5-3
By Bill Freeman
Norwood – They probably deserved a better fate but the feisty Norwood J.J. Stewart Motors Nemesis dropped their home opener 5-3 to the Almonte Jr. Sharpshooters in Canadian Premier Junior Hockey League action. The short-staffed Nemesis were coming off a 9-2 loss in Maxville to the Glengarry Highlanders in opening weekend action for the newly-minted CPJHL, an independent junior-age development league. The Nemesis fought back from a 3-1 deficit to tie the game 3-3 on a gritty stick-to-it play by Kyle Ross with seven minutes left in the game. The goal was Ross’s second of the night and it lifted the Nemesis who seemed to capture momentum from the bigger, swifter Sharpshooters but they failed to find the go-ahead marker. It was Almonte that finally got the upper hand with Andy Williamson cashing in a powerplay with 59 seconds left in the third to edge in front. Riley Degray added an empty netter with 12 seconds remaining in the period. Norwood goalie Colin Husovic
shook off an early goal and kept his team in the hunt with a sharp game. With many of Norwood’s hockey fans attending a visitation for the legendary J.J. Stewart, the opening night crowd at the AsphodelNorwood Community Centre was smaller than expected but they were treated to some entertainingly fastpaced if sometimes sloppy action. Nemesis coach-general manager Chad Birkhof liked what he saw from his team. “I thought the team played incredible; from the goalie out it was an excellent effort,” Birkhof said. “Almonte’s been together for a while now with a full roster and we haven’t had a practice with ten players. I though we really had the better scoring chances.” Williamson’s powerplay winner was a perfect deflection that Husovic had no chance on. “The boys executed exactly what we asked them do. That was a squeaker goal, a bad bounce. We couldn’t have asked for more. We’re not a skilled team so we have to beat them with hard work and structure.” Charlie Rice scored the other Nemesis goal.
PET of ThE WEEK! Mosley
Sweet Mosley has unfortunately suffered some trauma in his short life. He was returned to us from his “forever” home after he developed autoimmune problems and his owner elected not to pursue veterinary treatment. But this special boy bounced back, has had some surgery with us, and is now patiently waiting for a new family at the Cat’s Cradle. Mosley is just over a year old and friendly with cats, dogs, and people. He’s a little shy at first but quickly becomes a lap cat with anyone who shows him attention. Drop by to meet Mosley and see if he’s The One!

Rebels badly outshot in three losses to open the season By John Campbell
Campbellford – The Campbellford Rebels are still looking for their first win of the season and, judging by the lopsided scores in two of their three losses thus far, the search won’t be an easy one. The team fell 9-1 to the reigning league champions, the Port Hope Panthers, in the season opener, blew a one-goal third period lead in a 6-4 loss to the Amherstview Jets at Warkworth Sept. 24, and then got crushed 11-1 by the Napanee Raiders the next day on the road. Campbellford was badly outshot in all three matches, allowing 67 by Port Hope, 58 by Amherstview and 53 by Napanee. Matthew Tarbutt scored Campbellford’s lone goal in the defeat at Port Hope, one of
just 15 shots in total for the team. Tarbutt gave his club a 4-3 a lead with a minute left in the second period of last Saturday’s match, but the Rebels fell apart in the third, managing only two shots while giving up 18 to the visitors, who scored on three of them to win by two goals. Kurtis Giles, Jeremiah Doherty and Austin Vallier had the other Campbellford goals. Andrew White-Copegog thwarted Raider netminder Kyle Martell’s bid for a shutout on Sunday. The Rebels play in Picton on Thursday, Sept. 29, and hosts the Raiders this Saturday in Campbellford. Game time is 7:30 p.m. Picton is also winless in the Tod division of the Provincial Junior Hockey League’s Campbellford’s Mack Pattison (No. 18) keeps a close check on Jet forward Hunter Eastern Conference, but does have a tie, 2-2, Chapman in first period action Sept. 24.

Trent Hills teens playing key roles with the Kingston Frontenacs By John Campbell
Kingston – Campbellford’s Nathan Dunkley made his debut in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) by being named third star in the home opener of the Kingston Frontenacs at the Rogers K-Rock Centre Sept. 23. He was held scoreless but won 11 of 17 faceoffs against the Barrie Colts and finished even in the plus/minus column in a game won 2-1 by the visitors.The 16-year-old centre potted his first goal in the OHL in his next match Sept. 24 against the Hamilton Bulldogs, but it was a 7-2 Kingston loss. Dunkley, who scored six times in four preseason games after being drafted 17tth overall in
April, won 10 of 16 faceoffs and was again even on the score sheet. He had four of Kingston’s 35 shots. Trent Hills’ Jakob Brahaney, a 6’ 1” defenceman who started out with the Frontenacs last season before being sent to the Kingston Voyageurs of the Ontario Junior Hockey League, is back with the team. The team’s second round pick in 2015 is one of three 17-year-old defenders who are being counted on to fill important roles this season. “All three will play in key situations and be given the opportunity to develop in a wide range of circumstances,” said Frontenacs head coach Paul McFarland in an interview for the OHL’s 20 in 20 Spotlight series.

season where he got a lot of ice time was the right decision, he said, because he has returned with more “confidence in his game and had a great pre-season,” he said. “He’s a smart player who has that pro
approach every day he comes to the rink, and he works really hard in practice. One of the really noticeable things about Jakob’s game is that he communicates well with his D-partner, which is a nice trait to see in such a young player.”

Bikes roll to raise $200K for Wounded Warriors
Trenton - This past weekend, nearly 200 cyclists, many of them military veterans and active service members, embarked on a two-day bike ride from Trenton, Ontario right into the heart of Toronto at Queen’s Park during the inaugural Wounded Warriors Canada Highway of Heroes Bike Ride. Participants were required to raise a minimum of $1,000 in funds to support ill and injured Canadian Armed Forces members,
Veterans, First Responders and their families, living with operational stress injuries like Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. To date the ride has raised a total of $200,000. This year, in true maverick form, Wounded Warriors Canada was cheered on by long-time partners, distiller Glenfiddich as they rode along a 170-kilometre stretch of Ontario’s Highway of Heroes, Macdonald-Cartier Freeway
(better known as Highway 401). The route has been designated the “Highway of Heroes” to reflect its use for funeral convoys carrying fallen Canadian Armed Forces service men and women. “Since 2013, our partners at Glenfiddich have supported us in raising a tremendous amount of money through the sale of their 15-Year-Old Solera Reserve (scotch whisky),” said Scott Maxwell, Executive Director,
Wounded Warriors Canada. “Our mission is to support our ill and injured Canadian Armed Forces members, Veterans, First Responders and their families by funding innovative mental health programs across the country. We simply couldn’t do this without the support of our partners and the generous Canadians that donate their time and hard earned dollars to our cause.” Participants began their ride
from the Afghanistan Repatriation Memorial in Trenton at 9:30 a.m. Along the way, they witnessed the unveiling of two LAV III Monuments, visited the Wounded Warriors Park of Reflection in North Whitby, enjoyed a Glenfiddich victory toast at the team dinner, and experienced three commemorative services. For more information about the ride, visit http://woundedwarriors. ca/highway-of-heroes-ride/home/

Childcare centres receive new playground equipment through Healthy Kids Challenge By Stephen Petrick
Outdoor playtime at several local childcare centres is going to be super fun now – and healthy too. Eighteen different childcare centres recently had new outdoor natural play equipment installed in their yards. This equipment was purchased by the Healthy Kids Community Challenge Hastings Prince Edward as a part of its first theme, Run. Jump. Play. Everyday, which focused on the importance of physical activity for kids through a mix of structured and unstructured activities. The provincial government recently granted Hastings County up to $375,000, to be spent from 2016 to 2018, for participating in the challenge.
The money is being spent on projects that will help kids live healthier lifestyles, such as the installing of new playground equipment. Earlier this year, the funds helped train elementary school teachers on how to provide more engaging activities to young children in phys ed. But the money for the playground equipment is the latest project. “When children are outside, they move more, sit less, and play longer,” said Emma Pillsworth, project manager for the Healthy Kids Community Challenge. “This equipment will encourage children to move in new and creative ways, and make it easier for local Early Childhood Educators Allie, a toddler at the Belleville YMCA daycare, carries what looks to be a large stick, but to engage children in outdoor, active play from a is actually new playground equipment. The equipment, provided to the Y by a company called Nature’s Instruments, is intended to get kids excited about nature. The equipment young age.” Continued on page 3

The news was announced by Prince EdwardHastings MPP Todd Smith on Friday, Sept. 23. His office provided breakdowns of how the money will be split by Belleville, Prince Edward County and Hastings County’s 14 rural municipalities, over a four-year period from 2016 to 2019. The City of Belleville is expected to receive the biggest sum, with about $7.6 million committed

to the city over the next four years, starting with a $744,355 in 2016. The city is expected to receive $1,496,593 in 2017, $2,116,067 in 18 and 3,215,691 in 2019. Centre Hastings is expected to receive a total of $460,394 over four years, while Stirling-Rawdon is expected to receive $196,842 in the same time span. Tweed is expected to receive $298,486 over the same four years and Marmora and Lake is expected to receive $241,599. The remaining Hastings County municipalities are each expecting similar sized six-figure investments. Hastings County itself is expected to receive $175,000 over the four years for projects it can spread out between its 14 municipalities. Meanwhile, Prince Edward County is earmarked to receive over $2.7 million over the four years. The news is exciting for Smith.

Low-cost rabies vaccination clinics offered on Oct. 1
The annual low-cost rabies vaccination clinics for cats and dogs will be taking place on Saturday, Oct. 1 at various locations throughout Hastings and Prince Edward counties, the health unit has announced. At the clinics, rabies vaccine will be offered at the reduced cost of $25 per cat or dog. The clinics are offered annually through an ongoing partnership between local veterinarians and Hastings Prince Edward Public Health. In the 17 years since the clinics started in 1999, these clinics have administered more than 75,000 rabies vaccinations to cats and dogs in Hastings and Prince Edward Counties. Rabies vaccination is the best way to reduce the occurrence of rabies in pets, as well as prevent the transmission of rabies to humans. “The goal of these clinics is to make it easier for animal owners to prevent
rabies in their pets,” says Dave Dodgson, Program Manager for Hastings Prince Edward Public Health. “By keeping pets protected, we also protect people from getting infected with the rabies virus.” The recent outbreak of rabies in Hamilton, Ontario, shows the importance of remaining vigilant with rabies vaccinations for pets. Rabies is still prevalent in many parts of the world which is why the World Health Organization has declared September 28 as World Rabies Day to help raise awareness about the importance of vaccination in preventing the spread of this disease. To protect your pets and your community from the risk of rabies, find a low-cost vaccination clinic near you. Information about the vaccination clinics is available in the Clinics and Classes section of the HPEPH website. For additional information, contact HPEPH at 613-966-5500.

LIFESTYLES
The Good Earth:
Now’s the time to get busy in the garden
Dan Clost Now is, indeed, the time Gentle Reader. It is time to get busy in your piece of this good earth. Experience gardeners will know that “getting busy” doesn’t always mean physical exertion. The first part of getting busy
is determining what needs your busy-ness. So take a pad and paper and have a seat on your thinking bench. If you don’t have a thinking bench then that is the first item to jot down. A thinking bench (could be an Adirondack chair, a rustic birch log settee or even a chaise lounge) is an integral part of any properly designed landscape. Simply defined it is a place where you can sit and enjoy your estate; a place where you can watch the seasons play out; a place where you go to relax, perhaps listen to a favourite piece of music. (It is not a coincidence that I am listening to Neil Diamond’s Kyrie Gloria from his Jonathan Livingstone Seagull sound track as I write this.) Now that you’re in the proper frame of mind, start making notes. I suggest that write down how you felt at the height of this summer’s double whammy of heat and drouth. I know I was trying to convince myself that all
would be well but deep down I thought almost everything was gone. (And thanks to Sharon for sharing that she felt that way, too.) Once your Gloomy Gus persona has had the opportunity to smudge your entries with negativity, turn the page. The next notes might focus on all that is good on your estate. At Clost Commons the zinnias and dragon wing begonias are in spectacular bloom; the Siskiyou guara (think butterflies) are dancing on the end of their long stems; the butternut squash are finally getting some size; the pole beans have taken over not only the cucumber tower but also the tomato strings, the backyard fence and the broom corn; and, the glads have finally decided it is time for them to bloom. Most of the lawn has returned to mostly green grass, and only two plants (Blue Muffin viburnum standard, Bloodgood Japanese Maple) actually succumbed although we have a few young
trees that will need some tlc to make it through the winter. You should be feeling relieved with a true gardener’s optimism fully restored. Your observations will now be positively critical, accompanied with actions/solutions. At this point, physical activity attends the notes. For example, “overseed and top dress bare spots on the lawn.” Here is a list of my fall activities: 1. Overseed and top dress bare spots on the lawn. 2. Empty out the composters using the finished compost for top dressing. 3. Plant Bulbs. If I happen to dig up bulbs I planted before, then I will move those old bulbs to a backyard holding area. 4. Collect fallen leaves and hold them for covering tender perennials after the first hard frost with the remainder being used to make leaf mould.
5. Plant a pear tree where the ancient (25 years old) dwarf Paula Red apple tree is hanging on for one final fall. 6. Find places for about 30 pots of perennials- mostly astilbe with a few ferns (Maidenhair, Red Lady and Barnes) and Sibirica iris. I could heel them into the unused part of the veggie garden but then I’d have to move them again in the spring. I’ll likely spend a few extra minutes on the thinking bench figuring out how to minimize that extra work. 7. Continue to dig up old shrubs and perennials from under the black walnut treeyes, the same tree that pulled apart our fence. Over the winter, we’ll come up with a garden plan for the new space. 8. Take time to be grateful we have a garden and the opportunity to enjoy it.

A dozen of the U.S.A.’s best national parks
By John M. Smith
This past summer, I wrote an article in which I briefly talked about a dozen of Canada’s best National Parks, for next year, as part of our 150th birthday celebrations, entrance to our national parks will be free. However, the U.S. is celebrating the centennial celebrations of the National Park Service this very year, so I thought that it would only be fitting to list a dozen of their very best, too: Acadia: If you want to catch that first sunrise in the country’s most easterly national park, then I’d suggest a visit to Maine’s Cadillac Mountain, the highest point along the nation’s eastern coast, located on Mount Desert Island. While in this beautiful park, enjoy travelling on its historic carriage roads. Arches: Utah’s Arches National Park, located just outside of Moab, has the world’s largest concentration of natural sandstone arches. More than 2,000 arches, along with many other fascinating geological formations, are to be found in here, and it’s, therefore, a photographer’s delight. Be sure to check out Delicate Arch, Double Arch, Landscape Arch, Balanced Rock, Fiery Furnace, and the Devil’s Garden. Bryce Canyon: This Utah park would be my choice for the most beautiful U.S. national park, for its awesome horseshoe-shaped amphitheatre, majestic red rock spires, pillars, domes, and its plethora of eye-popping hoodoos make this park like no other. Many of its best lookout points are located near the
park entrance, as is the incredible Navajo Loop Trail, which will take you from the rim of the canyon to the floor and back. It’s a stunning adventure trek! Denali: There’s only one main road into the interior of this Alaskan park, and it’s narrow, with many twists and treacherous curves. Therefore, individuals are not allowed to drive their own vehicles past mile 15 on the Denali Park Road, at the Savage River Check Station, and bus drivers must pass a stringent driving test that includes being able to drive backwards around those dangerous curves. This is simply because the buses often meet along the narrow road, so one must back up and give way to the other, and this is particularly challenging when the two large vehicles meet on a hairpin turn high above the valley floor! The high point of the 8-hour bus tour, both literally and figuratively, is over Polychrome Pass, and from up here there’s a fantastic view of the Plains of Murie that stretch all the way to the Alaska Range. Glacier: The best way to get an overview of this spectacular park, located in Montana, is to simply drive across its cliff-hugging Going-to-theSun Road (but it’s only open between late June and early September because of the heavy snowfall). Another great way to explore the park is on its trail system, for the park offers more than 1,000 km. of hiking trails. I’d visit soon, though, for global warming is playing havoc with its glaciers. Grand Canyon: This one is probably on most tourists’ ‘bucket lists’. It’s mammoth, and it’s Arizona’s
most distinguishable landmark. This awesome gorge is usually considered to be one of the “Seven Natural Wonders of the World”. It stretches for well over 200 miles from end to end, and it’s over 200 miles by road from the South Rim to the North Rim. Great Smokey Mountains National Park: This is the most visited national park of them all. It’s divided between North Carolina and Tennessee, covers an area of more than half a million acres, and is located within a day’s drive of about a third of the nation’s entire population. It was the Cherokee who described these ancient mountains as “shaconage”, meaning “blue, like smoke” (hence the name of the park). Haleakala: One of my fondest memories is watching a sunrise on Maui’s Haleakala. “Haleakala” means “House of the Sun”, and I find it difficult to find the right words to convey to you the special feeling that I had on that summit (at over 10,000 feet) in the stark blackness of the night – and then to witness those first rays of light in the sky as the sun was about to emerge – and then to see the sudden bursting forth of that bright yellow ball of light! Then, to top it off, I descended this volcano by bicycle. It was awesome! Rocky Mountain National Park: I find this Colorado park’s Alpine Visitor Centre particularly appealing, for it’s the highest one in the country’s entire National Park Service, and it offers extraordinary alpine tundra views. On one occasion, I ascended a trail here and saw a herd of elk in the valley below!
Yellowstone National Park: Most of this exquisite park, the U.S.’s first national park, is in the northwest corner of Wyoming, but it also spills over into a bit of Idaho and Montana. If I had to choose one U.S. national park as my favourite, it would be this one, for it has such spectacular and varied terrain and abundance of wildlife. I’ve never been in this park without seeing wildlife – and check out its thermal pools, canyons, and geysers, too. Yosemite: California’s Yosemite Valley, the most popular part of this park, includes such spectacular
granite monoliths as Half Dome and El Capitan (both very popular with rock climbers), such magnificent waterfalls as the Bridalveil Falls, Vernal Falls, and Yosemite Falls, and such incredible outlook points as those found at Valley View and Tunnel View. Zion: My favourite stop along the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive by shuttle bus was at the Temple of Sinawava, for here I found the River Walk, and this led to the Narrows. This is an opportunity to walk in Utah’s Virgin River, into a very narrow canyon, surrounded by towering cliffs, and it’s a real adrenaline rush.

Protein’s important for Salvation Army Mark De Jong stacks packages of pork inside the Salvation Army kitchen while Doug Farrell looks on Friday, Sept. 16. Both were representatives of the Northumberland Quinte Pork Producers, who stopped by the Salvation Army’s downtown Belleville location to deliver a large donation of pork. The packages spread across the table, represent the donation of one rougly 235-pound hog. It marked the first time the Pork Producers had donated to the Salvation Army Belleville and it was a much needed supply, said Community and Family Services Director Abby Mills. The number of people accessing Salvation Army Belleville food programs this year is up 13 per cent from last year, which means more than 2,000 extra meals to serve this year. Mills said the Salvation Army appreciates meat donations, because the organization wants to provide clients, with healthy, balanced meals.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
October is an all-important month for cancer awareness, especially for women Dear Editor, At the Canadian Cancer Society, October is about more than just raising awareness for breast cancer, it’s about taking action to save lives. Women over 50 account for more than 80% of breast cancer cases in Ontario yet only 61% have regular mammograms. We need to change this. Regular mammograms are the most reliable way to find breast cancer early – when it’s most treatable. I’m doing my part by volunteering with the Canadian Cancer Society as a Women to Women Ambassador to promote

screening in my community. I lead by example and get a mammogram every two years. I also fundraise to help the Society support 76 clinical trials and world-class breast cancer research. Early detection and increased screening rates combined with better treatment therapies have resulted in a 44% decrease in breast cancer death rates since the 1980s. This month folks in Hastings, Prince Edward and Brighton can take action against breast cancer by buying a pink ribbon, volunteering to sell pink ribbons or joining the Women to Women movement.
Monitor to aid in endoscopy procedures monitor that will improve the observation of sedated patients The endoscopy department at undergoing a colonoscopy or Prince Edward County Memorial gastroscopy procedure. Pictured Hospital is now home to a new here is a GE B850 Monitor that By Briar Boyce
was required for our hospital under new health care standards for patients undergoing sedation. This replacement will result in greater patient safety as the
screen has a wide viewing angle so the medical staff can easily read critical data right at the bedside. It is a high tech monitor with functions to help staff assess the tolerability of anesthesia in the operating room. The B850 Monitor will help our staff get accurate medical information, when and where they need it. Prince Edward County Memorial is the low risk endoscopic centre for this region, performing 3,139 scopes in 2015. The ongoing replacement of scopes and equipment for this department is needed to keep the service efficient and of high calibre in the County. Medical equipment is expensive and has a short lifespan. Unlike many medical costs, equipment is not funded by the government; it expected that the community finances the replacement of medical equipment. The PECM Hospital
Foundation was able to purchase this much needed monitor through the generosity of the Stark Family Fund. The grant, administered by a local selection committee including Tim and Linda Beatty and family, is overseen by the Community Foundation for Kingston and Area and helped offset the cost of this $30,437 monitor. This monitor is part of the Foundation’s LIFE SAVER II Campaign for replacement equipment. Phase II of the LIFE SAVER Campaign focuses on acquiring medical equipment for the Endoscopy and Pharmacy Departments at PECMH at a cost of $201,022. Again, the Foundation is asking for the community’s generous support to help us equip our local hospital and thanks all those who have already stepped forward with their commitment to quality health care for the patients at PECM Hospital.
We’ve been delivering SERVICE

When MacEwen Petroleum was founded in August 1976, we were confident that a company based on integrity, reliability and personal service would succeed. And we were right. Over the years, we’ve grown into one of Canada’s leading independent petroleum products companies. Thank you for making all this possible. We look forward to serving your needs for many more years to come.

NAFMCF gala will be ‘Out of This World’ By Ross Lees
When the National Air Force Museum of Canada Foundation (NAFMCF) named their semiformal annual gala “Out of this World, Astronaut Portrait Gala,” they weren’t just launching baking soda rockets. Their gala event on Oct. 21 will feature two very well-known Canadian personalities – renowned Canadian artist Cyril Leeper and Colonel Chris Hadfield, a former Canadian astronaut and the first Canadian Commander of the International Space Station. So when the NAFMCF says it is “out of this world stuff,” they kid you not. Cyril Leeper is well known for painting portraits of members of the Royal Family, senior military officers, government officials and business leaders. More recently, Leeper created a portrait of Col. Hadfield, which will be unveiled and presented to the museum by Leeper and Col. Hadfield at the gala. “We are very excited about this year’s gala,’ said development coordinator Brigitte Frances. “It’s going to be a special evening where those in attendance will have the good fortune to hear from an artist
whose talents are known across the country. Everyone will also be able to meet and listen to Col. Hadfield.” Tickets for this event are being sold for $150, and can be purchased at the NAFMC, the Chamber of Commerce in Belleville and Trenton as well as Smylies Your Independent Grocer. Doors will open at 6 p.m. for cocktails, followed by dinner, portrait unveiling, live auction and a dance. Money raised from the event will go towards supporting the NAFMCF and the Theatre campaign, an effort by the NAFMCF to build an educational theater within their space that will benefit Quinte West and the surrounding communities. “8 Wing remains committed to the National Air Force Museum of Canada Foundation and its efforts to support the museum,” explained 8 Wing Commander, Col. Colin Keiver. “The yearly gala is one of the great ways our Foundation is able to present something special to the community, while at the same time raising money needed to help further the important stories of the amazing men and women in the RCAF in new and exciting ways.” Col. Chris Hadield, a former Canadian astronaut and the first Canadian Commander of the International For those who have questions Space Station shown here in an appearance in Belleville in 2014, will be on hand at the NAFMCF gala on Oct. please contact nafmcftickets@ 21 to unveil and present his portrait painted by renowned Canadian artist Cyril Leeper. gmail.com or 613.965.7314.

Syrian benefit concert a treat of stuff, nonsense By Jack Evans

“Stuff and Nonsense” was a solid title for the benefit concert in aid of Syrian refugees by Command Performance recently at Holloway Street Church. The nonsense was aplenty and the “stuff ” was non-stop, with swing dancers, chests of treasures and dozens of old-fashioned props, not to mention old-fashioned songs. Some might say even “antique” songs. But, with some jazzy contemporary numbers and arrangers like Dr. Leslie Bell and a complete cantata based on the nonsense poems of Victorian era Brit, Edward Lear, it all came together.
The Picton-based community choir has a knack for finding programs that really works with almost any audience. This concert was no exception. The several dance numbers by Carla and Jerry McCoy added an extra attraction to songs like “Choo Choo Ch Boogie,” “Flat Foot Floogie” and “Blue Skies.” Emerson Pringle on drums, Greg Garrett on electric bass and Samantha Hirst on keyboard helped keep the chorus on track. Getting back to the cantata, it was written by American musician and composer Vergil Thomson, using contemporary styles with Lear’s inane poetry, such as “The Owl and the Pussycat,””The

Jumblies,” and “The Pelican Chorus.” Challenging music to sing, but a delight to the audience. Members of the choir were quick and unanimous to respond to the benefit concert challenge to help raise funds for some of the Syrian refugees already here to bring over some of their other family members. Command Performance, while based at Bloomfield, draws members from across the county and a good number from the Belleville community. It launched its new fall season as of Monday, Sept. 17 in Bloomfield Hall from 7:30 to 9:30. Interested singers may contact Moira Forrester at 9685049 or Greg Garrett, at 476- 4148.
He has devoted several books to life in Algonquin Park and especially artist, Tom Thomson. His most recent book, Canoe Country: The Making of Canada for Random House in 2015 has been hugely successful. The recipient of multiple awards for his writing, he won the prestigious Rutstrum Award, given every five years to the best book on wilderness writing in North America in 2001 for his memoirs on his father, A Life in the Bush. Also described as “the Wayne Gretzky of hockey writing” his sports writing has garnered him inclusion in several hockey and sports halls of fames. In addition he is a multiple winner of national magazine awards, national newspaper awards and twice has been awarded the ACTRA “Nellie” as Canada’s top television dramatist. In 2005 Roy MacGregor was named an Officer in the Order of Canada. He promises to be an most interesting speaker at the HCHS banquet, and how he connects the bumblebee and maple leaves will surprise you. The banquet is at the Travelodge on Saturday, October 22. It will begin with a social hour at 6 p.m. and dinner follows at 7:15 p.m. This year in response to several requests over the last few years, there will be a choice of main course entree: salmon or chicken, rather than the traditional prime rib. Tickets at $65 are available at Quinte Arts Council and by calling Mary-Lynne Morgan (613-961-7091) or Richard Hughes (613-961-7772).

Rummaging in the forest: A fall field day Have you ever rummaged through your closet and found those favourite, comfy old shoes? When you rummage through your woodlot, you find treasures too. Come to the Fall Forest Field Day in Tamworth (north of Napanee) and see the forest through the eyes of the experts. On Oct. 1, the Ontario Woodlot Association (Quinte and Limestone Chapters) is offering a Saturday morning of forest activity – including field tours and games - in a unique location: the Kennedy Field Station just north of Tamworth on the Salmon River. Everyone is welcome, from 9am to 1pm. What’s in a woodlot? A morning walking tour will examine pine plantations, mixed hardwoods, and the shoreline of the Salmon River with guides discussing tree and plant species, plantation management, and general forest health. The Kingston Field Naturalists will explain a “bio-blitz,” a comprehensive inventory of species, and Friends of the Salmon River will give advice about healthy shorelines. Whatever your question: tree health, invasive species, horse logging, or something else forest-related, come out and talk to the experts. A friendly competition will test your knowledge of species and forest
health; there are rumours of prizes of unbelievable value! A light lunch is provided and there are optional afternoon activities. The Kennedy Field Station is a very distinctive place north of Tamworth at 669 County Road 15. Recently
entrusted to Queen’s University, it is now used as a site for ground water studies. Join us and learn the history of the site and the current Queen’s program. Come and rummage in a splendid forest. Registration is required.
OWA members are free; the cost for non-members is $10 (including lunch). To register, contact Dave at sexsmithd@ gmail.com (613-373-9334), or Susan at susan@moorepartners.ca (613-3795958). Also visit www.ontariowoodlot. com.
This event is the first in an educational series called “The Full Value of Woodlots,” offered by the Ontario Woodlot Association in concert with Friends of the Salmon River and the Lennox & Addington Stewardship Council.

Important to know importance of grasslands An Alvar and Grassland Stewardship Workshop took place on Tuesday, September 20 at Roblin Wesleyan Church in Roblin, Ontario, hosted by the Napanee Plain Initiative group. The Workshop was very well attended. About 75 participants learned the relevance of the unique plants and specific wildlife that live in this habitat. Specialists from Wildlife Preservation Canada, Canadian Wildlife Service, Ontario Soil and Crop Improvement, and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry explained the programs that support alvar and grassland conservation.
Land management for grassland birds (such as the Shrike, Bobolink and Eastern Meadowlark) and provincial grassland initiatives for farmers and landowners were well examined. The field trip was a big hit as everyone explored three local alvar sites in Roblin, Newburgh and Odessa. At Newburgh, this was a good opportunity to view an actual stewardship project – shrike protection - by local landowners. For more information, contact Susan Moore from the Lennox & Addington Stewardship Council at 613-379-5958 or lastewardship@ gmail.com
