Tweed man hopes to kick butt in Italy at Worlds By Brett Mann

Tweed – A Tweed kick boxer will be representing his community and Canada at the World Kickboxing Federation Championships in Italy. James Georgiou will be travelling to Andria, Italy, for the November 7 to 12 competition with his team mate Zack Baldwin to join the Canadian team, which includes 20 athletes and three coaches. Georgiou currently holds a Canadian championship in his weight class, 132 pounds, in the sport which is also known as Thai boxing or Mauy Thai. He has been studying Thai boxing for the last three years at the Loyalist Martial Arts Academy. “I’ve been training at the gym since about 2013,”said Georgiou. “One of my friends’ dads just told me I should try out boxing, so I went to the gym and tried out some boxing and really liked it, and I kind of moved from

boxing over to Mauy Thai.” The 19-year-old Georgiou has travelled to Thailand twice to compete. “I fought in Canada and the United States, and I fought in Thailand,” he said. “I went there about two years ago and I got back for my second trip in March. It was amazing. It’s pretty cool to just experience the culture and see how life is different on the other side of the planet. Getting to compete over there is not something a lot of people get to do, so that’s really special.” Georgiou said that the sport is “pretty big in Asia and Europe and Australia, too.” Fighters wear 10-ounce gloves. Shin pads and head gear are often optional. “Normally, if it’s just a single fight, I’ll just wear gloves and no gear,” he said. In Italy, he will be competing in two to six fights, each composed of two three-minute rounds. Asked about injuries in the

sport, he said there are “a lot of broken ribs, hands, feet, chipped bones in their shins. “Some guys like to fight in the clinch and throw elbows and knees. Some guys like to keep it on the outside and throw punches and kicks. It kind of depends on who you are and how you like to fight.” The Tweedsmuir Tavern is a sponsor for Georgiou’s trip, and will be holding a fundraising evening on Saturday, Oct. 8, from 8 to 10 p.m. with the music of Northern Voodoo. Other sponsors also have donated cash and time to Georgiou’s endeavour.

Tweed resident James Georgiou holds a Canadian Championship in Mauy Thai (Thai kickboxing) and will be heading to the world competitions in Andria, Italy, next month to compete as a member of the Canadian team. Brett Mann/Metroland

Celebrity chefs big food trip comes to Roseneath

By Sue Dickens

Roseneath – The television cameras were rolling recently at Tamarack Farms near Roseneath, where celebrity chefs Paul Rankin of Northern Ireland and Nick Nairn of Scotland brought “Paul and Nick’s Big Food Trip” to Canada. Nancy and Richard Self, the owners of the farm, were interviewed last year when they won first prize at the Royal Winter Fair for their maple syrup, which stacked up very well against a field of 23 entries. “The chefs were charming,” said Nancy. “They stayed after all the TV people left and we ate tomatoes, lettuce picked fresh out of the garden. They said it was the nicest meal they had in Canada.” The couple raises sheep, so lamb seasoned with rosemary was the highlight of the menu.

“They got our name from John Horne, executive chef at Canoe Restaurant in Toronto,” she explained. “They were looking for people who had a connection back to Ireland and Scotland, and my grandparents emigrated from Ireland and I still have a cousin in southern Ireland.” Her husband Richard’s family connections are to Scotland. The chefs’ culinary journey, which has taken them along the coasts of their homelands to find out more about their Ulster-Scots roots, is entering its fifth season, with the latest filming in the Oshawa, Warkworth, Toronto, Hamilton and Niagara areas, as well as Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. “Tamarack Farms hit the spot on several counts,” said Daniel Crozier, freelance producer/director and video editor currently with Waddell Media. “They have a really good va-

riety of produce . . . We really like their ethos when it comes to raising their livestock and their humane attitude to the slaughter process. “Our chefs travelled to farmers and food producers in the area, checking out the very best in local meat, poultry, seafood, fruit, vegetables, dairy produce . . . and then use that produce to prepare a threecourse meal,” he added. Crozier has worked on dozens of shows, “many of which you won’t have heard of, because they’ve been transmitted only in Europe,” he said. Such is the case with this locallyfilmed series. “It will be broadcast initially by UTV in Ireland and STV in Scotland,” Crozier explained. “They may then sell it on to other broadcasters elsewhere.” The eight half-hour shows are expected to air in 2017.

Madoc Lions show appreciation for community support By Diane Sherman

Madoc—In their fourth year of membership with Lions International, the fledgling Madoc Lions Club logged 9,000 man-hours and donated $11,000 back to the community. The club supported the purchase and delivery of five electric scooters and a mobile device for residents, groomed a widow’s yard on Labour Day and regularly manicure lawns and deliver equipment for the Heart of Hastings Hospice. They brought in the Harlem Ambassadors for a frolicking night at the high school, and hosted the Military Jam musical event at the Arts Centre, known as The Lions’ Den. They also are on a mission to purchase a handicapped-accessible swing for Centre Hastings Park, and donated to install a teeter-totter at the Ivanhoe playground.

In an effort to reflect the latest information, the National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) Educational Messages Advisory Committee (EMAC) recently modified its messaging around sleeping with a door closed. The updated message for sleeping with the door closed states, “A closed door may slow the spread of smoke, heat and fire. Install smoke alarms in every sleeping room and outside each separate sleeping area. For the best protection, make sure all smoke alarms are interconnected.” Previous messaging stated that if you sleep with the bedroom door closed, to install smoke alarms inside and outside the bedroom, and for the best protection, to make sure all smoke alarms are interconnected. “NFPA and others have long acknowledged that closing a door can impact the spread of fire, but the primary message has been and continues to be to make sure you have working smoke alarms in your home, giving you early warning of a fire,” said Captain Randy Dunkley. According to Captain Dunkley, new research shows that fires burn faster today as a result of the way newer homes are built and the contents in homes. This led the committee to re-examine messaging around sleeping with doors closed. “While there are so many variables to where a fire starts and how it spreads, anything that can potentially give you more time to get out should be considered,” said Captain Dunkley, emphasizing that you may have as little as two minutes to escape a home fire, compared to seven to eight minutes years ago. “Today’s furnishings and open floor plans create scenarios that burn much more quickly than previous structures and their contents.” “We are constantly reviewing our messages to make sure they reflect the latest knowledge in fire safety and we’ll continue to do so,” said Captain Dunkley. “Given that the majority of fire deaths happen in homes with no smoke alarms or no working smoke alarms, we cannot stress enough the importance of making sure you have adequate protection from these life-saving devices.” Central Hastings Trent Hills News - Thursday, October 6, 2016 7

OPINION

Headed for an antibiotic apocalypse I have never advocated that people who routinely feed low doses of antibiotics to livestock should be executed without trial. That would be too harsh, too irrevocable. There Gwynne Dyer should be fair trials, and fines for a first offence, and prison for a second. Only habitual offenders should face the death penalty. But first, there has to be a law. At the moment, it isn’t even illegal in most countries. At the United Nations last week, every single member country signed a declaration that recognises the rise in antibiotic resistance as a threat to the entire enterprise of modern medicine. It’s a start, but that’s all it is – and time is running out. “The emergence of bacterial resistance is outpacing the world’s capacity for antibiotic discovery,” World Health Organisation director-general Margaret Chan warned the meeting. “With few replacement products in the pipeline, the world is heading toward a post-antibiotic era in which common infections will once again kill.” The declaration urges countries to cut back on the use of existing antibiotics in order to preserve their effectiveness, to make better use of vaccines instead, and to spend more money on developing new antibiotics. It doesn’t put any actual money on the table, however, and it doesn’t even make it illegal to pump “sub-therapeutic” doses of antibiotics into farm animals. (It can’t. Governments have to do that.) I was not really recommending the death penalty for feeding antibiotics to livestock. That was just for dramatic effect. But the reckless misuse of antibiotics is rapidly destroying their effectiveness. The same goes for communicable diseases. In the 19th century tuberculosis was the biggest killer of young and middle-aged adults in Europe and America. With the discovery of streptomycin in 1944, isoniazid in 1952, and rifamptin in the 1970s it ceased to be a major health problem. But now the drug resistance has grown so great that at least 190,000 people worldwide died of tuberculosis last year. The problem of bacterial resistance has been understood for a long time. If the antibiotic kills all the harmful bacteria it tar-

gets in the person or animal it is given to, then no resistance develops. But if it only kills off the weaker ones because it was a very low dosage, or because the course of drugs was not finished, then the surviving bacteria will be the most resistant ones. They will pass their resistance on to all their descendants, who will undergo similar episodes of winnowing out the less resistant ones many more times, and gradually the resistance grows. The only way to keep antibiotics effective, therefore, is to use them as rarely as possible, and to make sure that they kill off all the target bacteria when they are used. We are not doing this. Doctors overprescribe antibiotics, often giving them to people who do not have bacterial infections just to get them out of their offices (and sometimes getting a kickback from drug companies for each prescription they write). And nobody makes sure that patients complete the course of treatment even though they already feel better. Much worse is the widespread practice of giving regular low doses of antibiotics to cattle, pigs and chickens, partly as a means of controlling the spread of disease in their cramped and insanitary living conditions, but mostly because it makes them put weight on more quickly. Getting them to the slaughterhouse a week or two faster is money in the hand. This greedy and reckless practice is now banned in the European Union, but it is still commonplace in China and the United States. In fact, 80 percent of American antibiotic production goes to farm animals who are not ill, and as intensive farming methods spread to developing countries so does antibiotic use in agriculture. This has to stop. So does over-prescribing by doctors in developed countries, and the over-the-counter sale of antibiotics without prescriptions that is so normal in many developing countries. “We are now staring at overwhelming evidence of rampant antibiotic resistance, across all ages, all over the country,” said Dr Vinod Paul, head of pediatrics at the All-India Institute of Medical Sciences in Delhi. We also need a whole new generation of antibiotics to replace those that are hopelessly compromised, which requires persuading large pharaceutical companies to change their research priorities. (They make more money by developing new drugs that address the chronic health problems of the affluent, so we’ll have to subsidise them.)

Give `em heck, Hec, and other things that bristle Editorial by Chris Malette

A smattering of things from a cluttered editor’s desk: Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan is, as of this writing, in Germany for what he hopes will be life-saving surgery for the pancreatic cancer that doctors here tell him will likely kill him. To hear the feisty Macmillan tell it, it’s the provincial health ministry that was likely to kill him, however, by refusing to approve a $300,000 expenditure to travel to Kentucky for a procedure known as ‘nano knife’ treatment. There were a lot of headlines, a lot of TV time on Toronto news stations and a national TV news bit done on his plight. At least one Toronto newspaper hack took ‘Mayor Hec’ on as his celebrity cause du jour, upon whose back to ride to increasingly sensational headlines and cringe-worthy purple prose. (Sample: “If Hec does not make it, I plan to lay a complaint to the OPP’s Homicide Squad because I have two letters from doctors saying he is healthy enough for this surgery…” ) There are, however, some who think Macmillan has got far more than his fair share of publicity. A caller to the editor’s desk said on the weekend “I don’t know why, when so many other cancer patients suffer in silence and don’t get headlines, that Mayor Macmillan should get such a disproportionate amount of news coverage…” The caller went on to say he has sat bedside vigils for family members who died without having a Go Fund Me page set up for them, etc., and felt the plight of so many others deserve some ink as well. Fair enough. We all know someone who has died or battled cancer, but Macmillan’s case, while arguably morbidly overblown by some, as the above-mentioned hack illustrates, is unique in that a) he’s a fairly high-profile elected official – at least in the smallpond state of the phrase – and it’s not unusual when well-known people battling cancer get headlines. (Recall, if you will, Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk getting a liver transplant only six days after a very public appeal went forth for donors.) We wish Hec Macmillan well, looking forward to seeing him hale and hardy on his recovery in Campbellford. But, we will welcome, too, the time when the overwrought circus of his plight leaves town. *** We were struck this past week by the almost farcical news that the province is looking into possibly tearing down what appears to be a perfectly good, safe, relatively new (as these structures go) bridge over the Bay of Quinte.

No, not the Skyway Bridge near Deseronto that, frankly, has always been scarily high and seeming ready to topple onto the gill netters, er, anglers below at any minute. We’re talking here of the Norris Whitney Bridge – commonly referred to in the Belleville area as the Bay Bridge – and it’s apparently in such a state the province is about to embark on a study to either heavily repair or replace the bridge. From the official website outlining the study: “The Ontario Ministry of Transportation has retained MMM Group to undertake the Preliminary Design and Class Environmental Assessment Study (Class EA) for the rehabilitation and/or replacement of Norris Whitney Bridge... This study will examine alternatives for facilitating rehabilitation of the bridge as well as alternatives for increasing the traffic capacity of the bridge, including the future widening, twinning, or replacement of the structure.” This bridge was built in the `80s. Not the 1880s, 1983 to be exact. Now they’re thinking it’s out of date and might need replacing? It’s a sad statement on the disposable nature of buildings, vehicles, monuments and institurions when we have to tear things down every couple of decades because it wasn’t done right in the first place. Anyone who’s ever walked the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, strolled the Champs-Élysées in Paris or gazed in wonder at the pyramids of Egypt would either weep at the ineptitude of today’s engineers and builders or laugh hysterically at the waste we taxpayers swallow whenever anyone tells us this grand structure is ‘built to last.’ *** Finally, I see our old buddy Krampy has thrown his hat back in the ring for another round of campaigning and scrapping for a seat – this time at Queen’s Park. We’re sure Daryl, after two gorounds in Ottawa, thinks he has plenty more to give as a provincial MPP now that Tories can smell blood in the water and are lining up for a whack at Kathleen Wynne in the next election – two years from now. Good luck then to the popular Krampy (in Madoc, anyway), Bancroft councillor Tracy McGibbon and the sure-to-follow hordes who think a nice four-year gig at about $120,000 per annum would be just swell. It should be a fun nomination meeting whenever it comes about.

Campbellford is goose central for the fall migration

On Saturday, Oct. 1, the Trent River dam, north of Campbellford looked like an international avian airport, or perhaps the Canada goose equivalent of an international air show, as hundreds of geese converged on the shallow water to prepare for their autumn migration to sunnier climates. Montserrat Alverado of Campbellford brought her six-month granddaughter, Mia Viernes-Pereira, for her first experience admiring the beautiful sight as flock after flock coasted in over the trees, following an intricate flight course to finally land like skidding airplanes on the smooth water.

Award presented at Crowe Valley Conservation Authority Annual Meeting By Margriet Kitchen

Marmora – The CVCA Annual Meeting held Thursday, Sept 22, encompassed issues that have been under discussion for the past year, as well as current and upcoming concerns to be addressed. The ongoing work to partner with another conservation authority to boost service capabilities was discussed at length. The CVCA covers a large geographical area of watershed, including 10 municipalities, all of which are represented on the board. In spite of the size of the area in question, the population base is not sufficient to be able to support the full services that are required in today’s need for research and monitoring of the waterways. As a result, the Quinte Conservation Authority had originally been consulted to determine what services/staff might be shared and at what cost to CVCA. This is an ongoing process, with other avenues being explored as well. Ron Gerow, mayor of Havelock-Belmont Methuen, thanked Tim Pidduck and the authority staff for work well done for the past year. Rich Smith, president of the Crowe Lake Waterways Association, presented a letter to the board stating the concern of the CLWA regarding planned future commercial development on Crowe Lake. The CLWA consists of about 200 members, cottagers

and all season homeowners. “We are all active members, and we all are concerned about the development called Crowe Hill Estates,” Smith said. “There are a lot of rumours and that has prompted this letter. We are not opposed to development, we just want it to be done correctly.” Smith also has addressed Marmora & Lake Council asking that the association be included in plans, proposals, or reports that might concern the future of the lake. The board thanked Smith for his presentation, and the chairman assured him that the CVCA is “on the side of the environment.” General manager Tim Pidduck advised that a hunting group that has been given access to the Gut area for many years works well with the CVCA in maintaining their responsibilities as outlined, and the relationship will be ongoing. In the matter of security, and reported incidents at the Callahan’s Rapids conservation site, there will be options investigated to discourage possible destruction to sensitive environmental areas by such activities as the running of all-terrain vehicles through the conservation areas rather than on the established EOTA (Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance) trail. Four-wheelers are not allowed in the conservation area. In addition, illegal campers, dumping of residential garbage, and de-

structive party groups leaving broken bottles and debris are ongoing concerns. Options of more regular policing, involvement of trails groups, and other alternatives were discussed. Staff member Neil McConkey was presented with a 25 year service certificate of appreciation at the meeting. McConkey started out as an assistant water resource technician and for the past 15 years has worked in the capacity of water resource technician. Pidduck stated that McConkey, who resides CVCA chairperson Suzanne Partridge presented Neil McConkey with his 25th anniverin Consecon, is sary award at the CVCA Board meeting that took place on Thursday, Sept. 22.

Hastings County looks to OPP, votes to ‘get in line’ By Jack Evans

With policing costs continuing to represent a major burden on rural taxpayers, Hastings County Council Thursday voted to apply for a single OPP contract to serve the entire county. The process is a long one, CAO Jim Pine warned. There is a line up of municipal studies under way and it will take at least a full year, perhaps two or even more, for the county to see any action. But the consensus of most members was to write a letter and “get in line.” That action was one of three

offered by staff as choices. The second one was to defer a decision until after the report now under way for Stirling-Rawdon, expected next year; third choice was to hold off any action until there is a better deal for rural policing available from the province, which is under pressure from the AMO and other municipal groups to put something on the table. Pine’s report came after policing costs became a bone of contention months ago for the county’s 14 member municipalities after recent changes in OPP costing which placed the burden

on property owners, plus per-service charges, making figures of $800 to $900 per taxpayer for policing costs alone. Warden Rick Phillips and a couple of other members favoured the latter option but were over-voted. Pine noted in this report that the OPP already provides service for 13 of the county’s 14 members and any significant saving that might result from a single contract is unlikely unless there is a new formula. He also suggested that writing the application letter might be “prudent and beneficial, allowing us to continue to research and advocate for substan-

tial change during that period.” Council also reviewed a letter from the Ontario Ministry of Infrastructure and the Clean Water and Wastewater Fund, announcing a grant available to rural Ontario of up to $75.000 for such projects. Most members of council regarded the news as a joke verging on an insult and are expecting a later announcement with increased amounts. They will express thanks for the ministry’s assistance but make it clear that it is hardly a suitable amount to deal with water and sewer projects in today’s construction costs.

MPP says government is moving towards stable hydro bills By John Campbell

Hastings – Energy costs, worker shortages, job training programs, the province’s fresh water supply and pensions were among the areas covered in a wide-ranging breakfast meeting that Northumberland-Quinte West MPP Lou Rinaldi attended Friday, Sept. 30, at the request of the Trent Hills and District Chamber of Commerce. Rinaldi said he has been a strong advocate within his government that it “do something about the cost of energy,” and that the government has made some movement towards balanced, stable hydro bills with two recent initiatives. The first was to permanently remove the province’s share of the HST tacked onto hydro bills, or 8 per cent, with an additional reduction of 12 per cent for “truly rural” Hydro One cus-

tomers. The government also announced last week it was scrapping plans to sign another $3.8-billion in renewable energy contracts because the province’s Independent Electricity System Operator has determined for the next “few years that Ontario has enough capacity [in] electricity that we really don’t need any more,” Rinaldi said. He pointed out this summer was the warmest and muggiest in history, but there was not one smog day, compared to 50 in 2005 when coal-fired power plants were still operating before the Liberals closed them. There have been about 4,000 fewer children with breathing issues in the last five years because of the government’s action, he said, but it’s high hydro bills “we all feel” in the pocketbook. “We got here because we wanted to make cleaner air that we breathe,” he

said. Rinaldi added that Ontario’s green energy industry employs more than 20,000 people and between 80 and 90 per cent of what they produce is for export. “Today, generating energy by solar is just as cheap as generating electricity with (natural) gas,” he said. “That’s how far we’ve come.” Rinaldi spoke about the hundreds of jobs that government investments have helped create in the area, but chamber president Jeff Hamilton said there is a shortage of workers for positions that go unfilled now, so “where are these people going to come from?” Rinaldi said his government is addressing the issue by making tuition for university, college and training programs free for students from families with incomes of $50,000 or less, and more affordable for middle-class

families. “We’re trying to create those opportunities,” he said. “It takes time to build that cycle.” Pointing out the drought much of Ontario has experienced this summer, Perry Melzack raised the issue of Nestlé wanting to renew its permit to take up to 3.6 million litres a day from its well in Aberfoyle for another 10 years. It currently pays just $3.71 for every one million litres it takes. Premier Kathleen Wynne “has expressed outrage ... (but) I’ve no doubt that a contract will be extended very quietly on a Friday afternoon,” Melzack said. “Why are we giving away our precious resource to a foreign ... company so they can basically rape us by selling it back to us in a bottle (which) we’re not charging, by the way, to recycle?” Rinaldi said his government is taking the matter “very, very seriously” and has “gone back to the drawing board” before it will make a decision. There are wards being fought around the world over fossil fuels, “can you imagine (what will happen) when we run out of water,” Rinaldi

Northumberland-Quinte West MPP Lou Rinaldi had a breakfast meeting with 20 members of the Trent Hills and District Chamber of Commerce in Hastings on Sept. 30, answering questions ranging from hydro costs to worker shortages. John Campbell/Metroland

said. “(It’s) a natural resource we can’t afford to squander.”

Highest turnout for toy ride in its four years By John Campbell

Campbellford -- The fourth annual Trent Hills Fire Department/Community Living Motorcycle and Classic Car Toy Ride took place Sunday, Sept. 25, with 47 motorcycles and 12 cars making up the procession that left in staggered starts from the Canadian Tire parking lot. Fire Chief Tim Blake said 150 people took part in the event, which raised $2,679 and collected 25 toys. “That’s the best turnout we’ve had

yet,” he said. “It was just a great day.” The money will make it possible to purchase gifts for children who otherwise would receive little this Christmas owing to family circumstances. Blake offered special thanks to Community Living Campbellford/ Brighton director Sean Clare and local resident Paul Stewart for helping out the firefighters with the fundraiser. The public will be invited to donate gifts when boxes are distributed throughout the community in October.

Campbellford Lions to host a cabaret to raise funds for community work By John Campbell

Campbellford – No one likes dirty dishes, but you probably will after you hear them perform. Dirty Dishes is a trio of talented women who play washboard, fiddle, guitar and ukulele and sing country, bluegrass and gospel songs. They’re one of four acts that will be taking the stage for Cabaret, a fundraiser the Lions Club of Campbellford is producing in collaboration with Ontario Street Theatre. The Thursday, Oct. 20, event at the Masonic Hall also features an area group, Bay City Trio, as well as Two Ladies Six Divas (Frances Townend and Stephanie Herrera taking on the personalities of Marilyn Monroe and Liza Minnelli, among others) and bluegrass musicians The Whaley Brothers.

The $65 cost of admission includes a three-course dinner, which a Lion member, chef Emilio Ojeda, will prepare. All the money raised will be used to support the service club’s work in the community, such as the screening it does for vision and hearing problems in senior kindergarten and Grade 1 students in Campbellford. “Last year, about half the children we tested had a hearing problem and about 40 per cent of the children had vision problems,” said Elaine May, a Campbellford Lion who is chair of the screening programs in Zone 43. “We’re not doctors. We send a letter home advising the parents that there may be a problem and to take their child to the doctor.” May said the vision program is very important to her because her mother went blind. May said Cabaret is “going to be

fun with excellent food — (Ojeda) is a great cook. “We want it to be a success and for people to thorough enjoy themselves,” she added. “(There’s) going to be a lot going on onstage. That’s what makes us really happy to be doing this,” said Ojeda, who came up with the idea for a cabaret. “We are presenting something that is very dynamic.” “(There are) very few venues where you have four acts like that in an evening,” said May’s husband, Don, a past president of Lions. “It’s going to be very entertaining. You’re going to find something you really like.” The show begins at 7:15 p.m., following dinner at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are available at The Wine Shop in Campbellford, Our Lucky Star Cafe in Warkworth, and www. eventbrite.com.

Chef Emilio Ojeda, on the right, suggested the Campbellford Lions stage Cabaret as a fundraiser and fellow service club members Elaine and Don May embraced the idea. The event takes place Oct. 20 at the Masonic Hall. John Campbell/Metroland

The night of entertainment is also intended to drum up interest in the Campbellford Lions, which currently has about two dozen members. “We just love it,” Don May said. “You get to meet a lot of nice people

... (who are) like-minded” and “wanting to help other people,” Elaine May said. The Lions meet the second and fourth Wednesday of each month. For more information, call the Mays at 705-947-2107.

Campbellford club hosts Hook-In on the Canal By Sue Dickens

Campbellford - Dozens of rug hookers took part in the fifth annual Hook-In on the Canal hosted by the Campbellford Rug Hookers Club, sharing their expertise during the day-long outdoor event. The rug hookers also displayed their finished rugs while working on their current creations and demonstrating their craft to those who dropped by Old Mill Park. A notice was sent to the Ontario Rug Hooking Craft Guild (OHCG) and to other rug-hooking groups around Ontario. In the past, members have travelled from as far away as Gananoque and Kingston areas, Belleville, Cobourg, Bethany and

some from the Peterborough area. This year’s recent hook-in included hookers from Cobourg, Harrowsmith, Kingston and Trenton. “Our club has a membership of 72 hookers,” said Marilyn Pollock, who has been president since 2008. “We started in 1981.” “It’s an opportunity to just be together with our fellow hookers and hooker friends,” she explained. Pollock said that, at 83 years of age, she is the oldest rug hooker in the group. “I would say the average age of our members is about 40,” she said. Pollock got involved with rug hooking when a girlfriend from Toronto visited and said she wanted to learn, so they took a

course together at Loyalist College. That was in 1995 “I kept hooking; she didn’t!” Pollock said. Rug hooking requires patience and takes practice, she noted, adding, “Anyone that wants to learn how to hook, we will show them.” Those in the club enjoy rug hooking but, that is not the only reason they come. “It’s for the friendship,” said Pollock. “That’s why we’re involved,” The group of women meets every Monday afternoon at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Campbellford. On the last Monday of the month there is an all-day hooking event.

The Campbellford Rug Hooking Club hosted its fifth annual Hook-in on the Canal recently. From left are Mary Anne White of Trenton, Gayle Chambers of Campbellford, Elaine May of Campbellford, Marilyn Pollock, president of the Campbellford club, and Monique Yearwood of Havelock.

No parking zones, tough bylaw coming to Miles of Memories By Bill Freeman

[leading to the water] is a big concern. It’s bad on both sides of the hill for parking.” McMillan suggests clearly marked parking zones; any vehicle parked elsewhere be tagged and towed after the bylaw comes into force. There will also be a sign at the junction of County Road 48 and Miles of Memories Road indicating that parking is prohibited outside of the designated zones which include angled parking along the west side from the boat launch up to where the residential area begins.

McMillan agrees the municipality needs to talk to landowners to see if there’s property that can be converted to parking to get vehicles off the road, especially those connected to island residents. “[Because of public safety] we really need to move forward with this sooner than later,” Gerow said. “All of council has witnessed it. It’s very much a safety issue for citizens especially for people walking around the area.” “Education is key,” said McMillan.

Jitterbug Jive draws a crowd to the Stirling Festival Theatre By Terry McNamee

During “Jitterbug Jive” at the Stirling Festival Theatre on Sunday, Oct. 2, singer Craig Parry performed hits made famous by Frank Sinatra.

Terry McNamee/Metroland

Stirling—Music from the golden era of the big bands filled the Stirling Festival Theatre on Sunday, Oct. 2, for a swing dance showcase powered by The Commodores Orchestra of Belleville. Led by Andy Sparling, the Commodores featured many of the hits of bandleaders such as Benny Goodman and Jelly Roll Morton. A highlight of the afternoon was a medley from Goodman’s first show at Carnegie Hall in 1938. The concert is still considered a landmark event in jazz music. The Commodores did justice to the medley, which featured Bob Leonard on clarinet, and received a great response from the large crowd on hand Sunday. Vocalists for the afternoon were crooner Craig Parry performing Frank Sinatra hits and local singer Jeanette Arsenault, making her big-band debut. Champion dancers Eloise Magliocchetti and Leon Tsebo performed a variety of dances from the jive to the bossa nova. The Commodores Orchestra is Canada’s longest-operating big band, and Champion dancers Eloise Magliocchetti and Leon Tsebo performed with the Commowill be celebrating its 90th anniversary dores Orchestra at the Stirling Festival Theatre on Sunday, Oct. 2.

Moira Lake trestle bridge declared unsafe

By Diane Sherman

Madoc - Members of Centre Hastings municipal council have agreed unanimously to decommission and dismantle the historic trestle bridge spanning the narrow water passage between upper and lower Moira Lake. The trestle, which predates 1900, originally was built as a train bridge when railroad was primary transport for Hastings County residents. An assessment of the bridge by the consulting engineers, the Greer Galloway Group, was submitted by letter to the public works superintendent, dated Sept. 14, stated that a visual inspection was done Sept.1, in accordance with Ontario standards. Findings showed the trestle structure is entirely made of creosote timber and in poor condition overall, with several supporting piles completely deteriorated and no longer supporting the structure. The remaining ones have deteriorated by 50 to 90 per cent.

The investigation follows a 2014 recommendation the bridge be closed or replaced. The results are the same in this assessment: that the structure be closed to all traffic (trail and water) immediately until the structure is completely replaced or demolished. The estimated replacement cost was set at $2.5 million. The bridge is known as a ‘trail bridge’, part of the Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance on the Trail of Two Lakes through Madoc. After reviewing both the 2014 report and the most recent one, council agreed on Wednesday, Sept. 28, to immediately post signage and block off the bridge, but opted to post “use at your own risk” signs in the water passage because there are still boaters who need to use the passage to take boats out for the winter. Councillor Eric Sandford voted against this choice, preferring to prevent all traffic from being near the bridge. Public works will place signs immediately and tender for a demolition crew.

Local author’s book a Canadian best seller

By Sue Dickens

Campbellford – Local author Ann Preston seems to have found a recipe for success with her book The No Grainer Baker, which was released four years ago and has now become a Canadian best-seller. Her own digestive problems are what started her on this path to giving up all grains in her foods. When she wrote the book in 2012, she did it to offer recipes for celiac disease sufferers. However, her original target group of people soon grew to include folks wanting to lower carbohydrates or increase fibre in their meals. “I soon realized these recipes were now targeting a large group of people who were pre-diabetic, diabetic or had heart disease,” she commented.

Her next challenge was convincing her husband that the change of diet would be beneficial for his health. He loved breads, cakes, cookies, muffins and pie — “A true carboholic,” she said, noting that her husband’s blood pressure and cholesterol and weight were all creeping higher. It was then that she created the noa-bran bran muffins. Not only were they much like the original, she noted, “My husband said they were even better.” She knew then that replacing other favourite foods with no-grain baking was the key to a healthier lifestyle. Preston tested her recipes multiple times and gave them to friends and family to taste. “When I started giving out samples, the feedback was so positive

that I wanted to share the recipes with others,” she said. She took to the road and provided samples of her baking at her book signings, which took her from Kingston to Kenora. As a result, her book The No Grainer Baker has been sold coast to coast in Canada as well as in the USA, UK, and Australia. For more information, go to: www.thenograinerbaker.com

Local baker, writer and fitness enthusiast Ann Preston has found the recipe for success with her cookbook “The No Grainer Baker” which she released four years ago in Trent Hills when this photo was taken. This month, it became a Canadian best seller. Sue Dickens/Metroland

Tweed youth, local constables and dispatcher awarded OPP commendations By Brett Mann

Tweed – Last April local teen Graham Fowler helped save his brother’s life when his sibling’s kayak overturned in the frigid, fast-flowing waters of the Moira River. Fowler was able to quickly contact the Central Hastings OPP and with the help of two constables, save his younger brother who was clinging to a tree branch in the river. At an OPP ceremony in Ottawa, Fowler was awarded the Commissioners Commendation for Life-Saving, as

was Central Hastings Constable Jesse Cassidy. Constable Brad Croghan and Dispatcher Emily Nicholas were each awarded a Commissioners Commendation for Exemplary Performance of Duty. Nicholas has worked as a civilian employee for the OPP out of the Smith Falls Detachment for five years. The 27 year-old reports, “I am a call taker for 911 and a dispatcher for the Eastern Region. I moved to Tweed when I was in Grade 7 when my father, Peter Valiquette, got a promotion to detachment commander in

Graham Fowler and responding OPP Constable Jesse Cassidy recently were awarded the Commissioners Commendation for Life-Saving at a ceremony in Ottawa while Constable Brad Croghan and Dispatcher Emily Nicholas received commendations for Exemplary Performance of Duty in an incident on the Moira River in April when Fowler’s brother’s kayak overturned.

I went to St. Carthagh’s Elementary School and St. Theresa’s Secondary School in Madoc.” She worked at Valu Mart for 9 years before returning to school to study social work at Loyalist College. “And now I work for the OPP,” she says with a note of pride. Guiding the responding officers to the accident site was somewhat difficult from such a distance away, but Nicholas was able to do so in time to prevent a tragedy. “I was able to speak to the brother and question him about the number of bridges he had passed and get him to check out the area for landmarks such as barns and silos … I do believe it is a wooded area there. This is the first call like this I have personally taken.” This was also the first award ceremony she has attended, said Nicholas. “Not a lot of communi-

cators get recognized for their work, as we’re usually not really seen. It was nice to be acknowledged for my part in the ordeal.” Shifting the focus back to the actual rescuers, Nicholas commented,

“I really hope you are able to focus on the boys and the great work that they did together.” Neither Fowler nor Constables Cassidy or Croghan could be reached for comment.

With Love, From Me To You. I want to reach out to the future and know that I am making it better.

Public upset by last-minute cancellation of library board meeting By Terry McNamee

Stirling—The regular meeting of the Stirling Library Board, scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 20, was cancelled by board chairman Councillor Dean Graff more than five minutes after the meeting was scheduled to begin. More than a dozen people were in attendance, but the only board member who showed up was Pat Anderson, who left as soon as assistant librarian There-

sa Brennan announced the news. While people waited and wondered where the rest of the board was, Brennan received a call from Graff at the library, and came in to announce that the meeting was cancelled. “He said, because there is no designated board, that there was no scheduled meeting,” Brennan said. “He did say he would notify us for the next scheduled meeting.” The news did not sit well with

members of the public who had come for the meeting, especially since Stirling-Rawdon Council had appointed three new members to the board the day before. Council held a special council meeting on Monday afternoon, Sept. 19, to select the three new members from among 14 applicants. During that evening’s regular council meeting, they passed a bylaw confirming the appointment of the three new members, effective immediately upon pass-

ing, so there was, in fact, a full board in place the day before the library board was to meet. There was no mention Monday night of any cancellation. “I think it’s another sign that the Council doesn’t want the public participating in decisionmaking,” said John Rock, one of the crowd who showed up Tuesday night. “I’m totally disappointed,” said former board member and former chair Denyse Mouck.

Storytellers stroll through Asphodel Park By Bill Freeman

Westwood – The Peterborough Storytellers led families on a stroll to the “Hobbity Castle” of Asphodel Park on Saturday, Sept. 24. Four members of the storytelling troupe used the park’s natural space and Ken Arndt’s castellated tree carving as the centrepiece of their delightful short performance, which was followed by additional entertainment under the park’s shelter by harpist-trobairitz Angelique Ottewill and Rita Grimaldi. The group approached the Asphodel-Norwood Public Library in the spring about doing a show and was particularly interested in developing a session around the new carving which Arndt unveiled last year. “The library board was fully behind it,” said acting head librarian Lori Burtt. ““It’s all them. We just sponsored them and helped bring them here.” The motivating factor was the Hobbity Castle, sto-

ryteller Betty Bennett says. “Ever since I saw the photo of (the carving) in the newspaper we’ve wanted to do a storytelling here,” Bennett said. “It was just a matter of finding a story that involved a castle.” They found it in the tale of The Foolish Man, with children introduced to the beautiful lady of the castle, a dead tree on the river bank and the wise old man of the woods. “It’s interesting doing a story walking around,” Bennett said. The troupe has done performances for children in libraries many times, but this was different, she said. For World Storytelling Day, Bennett said, they animated a story, with different members of the troupe taking a part, “So it was like a dramatization. “We’ve been trying to mix it up and do a few different things for a change, instead of a straight narrative, because it does make it more interesting. This natural space is perfect.”

Canada 150 win for Hastings Revitalization Hastings – Hastings will be abloom with red and white tulips next spring, thanks to a big Canada 150 win by the Hastings Revitalization Association (HRA). The HRA will receive 1,000 bulbs — 500 red and 500 white — after a the association’s beautification committee successfully applied for a Canada 150 initiative sponsored by Vesey’s Bulbs in partnership with Canada Post, the Canadian Nursery Landscaping Association and the Niagara Parks Commission. In all, 150,000 red and white tulip bulbs will be delivered to Canadian communities in celebration of the 150th anniversary of Canada. Hastings is one of 63 Ontario communities selected and the only one in Northumberland County. Belleville, Tweed and Keene are the three closest communities to be chosen. “The tulip is an international symbol of friendship and of spring,” the company stated. “For Canadians especially, the tulip is a symbol of our national ethos of kindness and friendship witnessed, in particular, by our providing refuge to the Dutch Royal family during the Second World War.” Vesey’s was founded in Prince Edward Island in 1939 on the eve of World War II. HRA secretary Shannon Lawrence

said it is exciting and a privilege to be selected. Lawrence praised beautification committee member Elke VanMeer ,who found out about the program and did all the application legwork on behalf of the HRA. “This is a community project and the more volunteers for planting the better,” said Lawrence. Along with adults, local youth from Hastings Public School will be involved in the project. “There is always planning to do, but if you prefer to help just on planting days or clean-up days, that is perfectly acceptable,” said Lawrence. Volunteers will meet at the Hastings Civic Centre on Saturday, Oct. 1, at 9 a.m. to prepare for the bulb planting and do some general bed clean-up around the village. The Canada 150 planting day is Saturday, Oct. 22, at 10 a.m. The HRA will receive a certificate from The Canadian Garden Council and Vesey’s Bulbs indicating that they’ve participated in the special sesquicentennial celebration.

Marmora’s Pentecostal Church celebrates 80 years of service By Margriet Kitchen

Marmora – From humble beginnings, 80 years ago, at the main four corners in Marmora, the Pentecostal Church has become a modern structure serving not only the spiritual needs of the congregation and any who wish to attend, but also the day to day needs of young families, and those looking for counselling. This is an active church which offers organized youth groups (Superkids), annual Family Day participation at the park, and donations of time, goods and financial aid to local initiatives and charities. Pastors Alvin and Glenda Peddle are the more visible participants in leading this church population, but many members are active with various other organizations throughout Marmora and area. The congregation on Sunday included Jim Cuddy, who has been with the church for 71 years, and Leonard Coens, who has been a member since 1933. The service included upbeat music offered by a musical trio,

messages by the church’s two pastors and the main address by guest speaker, Rev. David Wells, General Superintendent of the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada, with a message based on 1 Revelations. Wells stated that, just as the early churches faced great challenges, so do the churches of today. “The church is not a nifty little box, “ he said. “From sea to sea here in Canada, the church is multicultural, from French and English to over 50 different languages. Some are magnificent buildings, while others may be as humble as an inner city bar for members to meet. There is a great sense of unity between the leadership of various groups of interdenominational leaders.” Wells praised the past successes of this congregation, but also encouraged even more work within the church as well as the community. “Eighty years is a lot to celebrate,” he said. “We pause and say thanks to the faithfulness of those who have passed. This place is a Tree of Life”

After the service, the congregation walked to the Community Centre to enjoy a home cooked roast beef dinner served by the church ladies. The Marmora Pentecostal church offers programs to the community such as Good Food Box through the Community Development Council of Quinte, as well as their own Good Baby box, and Itty Bitty Kiddie Kloset, which offers gently used baby clothing with no cost as young mothers exchange outgrown clothing. Call Marmora Pentecostal church at 613-472-3219 to find out more about these programs, as well as upcoming events.

Final batch of Dr. G’s homemade jams, jellies

By Sue Dickens

Campbellford – How sweet it is! Homemade jams and jellies once again are being sold to raise money for the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation, thanks to the dedication of Dr. Glenn Gibson. A long-time hospital anesthesiologist, now retired, Gibson has been fundraising by making these jams and jellies. It all started in 2013 when Gibson noticed crabapples growing near the physicians’ parking lot at the hospital in Campbellford, and he took some home to experiment. There was such a bumper crop of fruit, he made extra for the CMH Foundation to sell in support of the annual Angels of Care Campaign. Since then, he has donated more than 500 jars in support of the campaign. Last year’s campaign raised $165,448 for surgical services. That

year, he produced 200 jars of jam and jelly, including peach, gooseberry and spiced crabapple. His efforts have proved to be successful in more ways than one. Last year, his gooseberry jelly and spiced crabapple earned first-place ribbons in the Warkworth Fair Homecraft competition, and he also garnered third place in the very tough peach jam division. Gibson has produced another 200 jars of jams and jellies that are now available for sale. Funds raised through this year’s Angels of Care Campaign and sale of Dr. G’s homemade jams and jellies will support the purchase of new equipment for the laboratory of the hospital, including a chemistry analyzer and coagulation analyzer. Gibson said producing such a large quantity of preserves is getting more and more difficult, and this year’s batch will be his last. The Founda-

tion encourages the community to act quickly to make sure they don’t miss out on the final year for these tasty, sweet jams and jellies. “We can’t thank Dr. Gibson enough for his dedication and hard work for the Hospital and Foundation,” said CMH Foundation Chair Calvin Newman. “The community can show its appreciation by purchasing a jar of jam today.” The jams and jellies are on sale at the CMH Foundation office.

Dr. Glenn Gibson, a retired anesthesiologist from Campbellford Memorial Hospital, has another batch of his popular homemade jams and jellies ready for sale in support of the hospital Foundation. This will be his last year for this fundraiser. Photo submitted

Tweed Council meets new OPP commander

Tweed – An annual auditor’s report, an introduction to the new local OPP Commander and an update on Via Rail plans for a high frequency rail line in the area were some of the highlights of Tweed Council’s September meeting. The first of four public delegations was an introductory visit by OPP Staff Sgt. Scott Semple, the new commander of the Central Hastings Detachment. Semple, who took over two as commander two days prior to the meeting, offered a brief career history which includes five years as an operations manager in Napanee and five years with the Tactics and Rescue Unit. Semple said he is quite familiar with the local area, and listened to council’s concerns about speeding problems in the village. He suggested gathering more precise

data, perhaps through the use of a “speed spy” device which monitors speeds. This is distinct from photo radar, which can result in charges to speeding drivers. He noted that the OPP is increasingly using these kinds of mapping and analytics to direct patrols and resource allocation. Auditor Doug Churcher of Welch LLP Accountants presented the 2015 financial statement. He reported that, aside from landfill site liability, which has increased slightly, and tile and drain debenture loans which have been paid back ahead of schedule, the municipality has no other long-term debt. He also reported an accumulated surplus of $29.8-million, most of which is in the form of $26.5-million in capital assets. Reserve funds stand at about $3.8-million. Churcher agreed with Mayor Jo-Anne Albert’s observation that “On the whole, we’re in good shape.” Dan Orr of Quinte Waste Solutions

attended to walk through his agency’s new website with council. Jim Keniston sought council’s support for the fourth annual Tweed Trunk Or Treating event on Halloween in Memorial Park. Keniston requested the use of the parking area and umbrellas as well as access to electrical outlets, as in previous years. He also requested the presence of a fire truck, a popular feature with the participating kids, and noted that attendance at the event is “up for the third year in a row.” In her report, Albert offered condolences to the families of the late Al Anderson and of Jack Foster, one of Tweed’s last World War II veterans. She also reported meeting with Via Rail regarding a proposed dedicated Ottawa to Toronto track

for high-frequency trains, saying the company is looking at using the old CP rail bed. Planning is at “a very, very preliminary stage,” she said,. “Right now, there’s nothing they can say … They are looking at the Trans Canada Trail, but also other routes.” Under regular business, council passed three by-laws, including a zoning amendment, removal of a holding symbol on a property, and adopting a policy to sell a municipal road allowance. Council accepted a Public Works Manager’s recommendation to pay Danford Construction $287,321 for reconstruction of Crookston

Road. Manager Al Broek expects the project to be completed by the third week in October. Council accepted a recommendation from the CAO/Clerk to accept a tender of $14,238 from Jack Robinson Construction for repairs to the Kiwanis Pavilion. A recommendation from the Committee of Adjustment and Planning to approve a site plan for a storage and parking area for a Tweed Recreational Sport and Lawn property was approved. Four of five livestock loss claims were approved. Tiny Rivers was recognized for his volunteer service in Tweed.

Hillside Haven nominated for provincial inclusive employment award By Sue Dickens

*Metroland distribution area. Source: BrandSpark International Survey 2016. Story credit: simcoe.com

Campbellford – Hillside Haven Retirement Residence has been nominated for the prestigious Ontario Business Achievement Award (OBAA) in the category of inclusive employment. The awards event is described as “the most recognized industry gala in the province with a single focus on celebrating business success.” Nominated by the Trent Hills Chamber of Commerce, the residence is a finalist out of the more than 60,000 members of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce. Previous award winners include Goodlife Fitness, S.C. Johnson, Hydro Ottawa, Bombardier Aerospace, Porter Airlines, Tim Hortons, University of Western Ontario and many other well-known companies throughout Ontario. For Michael Gestetner, owner and director of Hillside Haven, his efforts in this area already have earned him the Trent Hills Chamber’s Inclusive Community Employer Award for 2016. The nomination for the provincial award was “a complete surprise,” he said. Gestetner comes by his passion to help those with disabilities honestly. Originally from Toronto, he said that while he was in school biology ma-

jor taking pre-med in New York, he worked at a youth camp for people with developmental disabilities and ended up in a job at a group home for low functioning children. That was the turning point for Gestetner “I really enjoyed that, and I asked myself, did I want to do something meaningful that I would enjoy?” he said. So he looked for more than a year before deciding that operating a small retirement residence with a family-like environment would help him fulfill his goals. Hillside has 18 suites, and managers Mike and Anne Broniek live onsite. When asked by Community Living Campbellford/Brighton if he would be interested in hiring someone from the people they support, he said yes, which resulted in 10 employed at various jobs, including mowing, landscaping, cleaning, helping in the kitchen and more. The people working for him are part-time and “are as good as or not better than anyone else,” he said. “If I can spread the message and have people look at hiring differently, it will have a great affect on business in general,” he noted. Winners will be announced at the annual OBAA gala at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre on Nov. 29.

Campbellford students run for Terry Fox By Sue Dickens

Campbellford – “You are all one of 3.5-million students doing the same thing at the same time across Canada,” said Pamela Donnan, a teacher at Campbellford District High School, where the annual Terry Fox Run began and hundreds of local students crossed the finish line. “Terry Fox had much influence while he was alive, and even more since he has passed,” she told the students before the run began. “I like that everybody is getting together to support Terry Fox and because he couldn’t finish his race we’re going to do it for him,” said Chyler Adams, a Grade 8 student at St. Mary Catholic Elementary School. She was joined in the Terry Fox Run by 165 students from her school, as well as about 150 students from Hillcrest Public School and more than 100 from Kent Public School. There were 500 high school students. It was only last year that the high school made its own historical mark with a quarter century of support for the Terry Fox Run, having raised $155,514.85 in

that time. The school was presented with a banner by the Terry Fox Foundation. “I think it’s a great cause, and I’m really excited about being in the run,” said Emma Oosting, a Grade 6 student at St. Mary’s Catholic School. “I really wanted to do this because we get to walk for charity and do this fun thing and we are representing our school.” Meg Rogers, a Grade 8 student at Kent Public School, said, “I feel it’s very important to support Terry Fox, because he didn’t finish his run.” Donnan, who has been organizing the run for about eight years now, said, “We love to have the elementary kids here. It’s great they make the connections with the high school on this day. The support for the Terry Fox Run is worldwide and it’s still growing. Having national run day and having all the kids do this across the country at the same time is very supportive.” According to the Terry Fox Foundation, to date, more than $650-million has been raised worldwide for cancer research in Terry’s name Campbellford District High School was where the annual Terry Fox Run started. Some of the ambassadors from through the annual Terry Fox Run. Total money raised locally this year local schools got together before the run to cheer each other on: Meg Rogers, Grade 8, Kent Public School; Alley Barrons, Grade 8, Kent School; and Chyler Adams, Grade 8, St. Mary Catholic Elementary School.

Stirling’s last commercial apple orchard is still going strong

R0012774187

Stirling—With changes in weather, the pressure of development and the cost of farming and labour, most of Stirling’s big apple orchards are either gone completely or down to a fraction of the size they used to be. But Russett Farms is still providing a large variety of the sweet fall fruit to people in the area. The orchard is run by Darrell and Sandra Russett, but the apples are really Sandra’s special interest. She is proud of the size and quality of the fruit produced by “her” trees. “We’ve had the orchard 18 years, but we had the farm long before that,” Sandra said. The farm belonged to Darrell’s parents, but the orchard was originally owned by Frank Bailey of Stirling, she said. He grew McIntosh, Cortland and Northern Spy apples. “We’ve added Gala and Honeycrisp,” she said. “This year is the first year they’re really producing well for us. A lot of people like the Galas.” However, Northern Spys are now harder to find, so people who prefer those will ask for them, she said. The big orchard covers eight acres and has hundreds of apple trees. Most of the trees are semi-dwarf, which eliminates the need for ladders when picking. Anything that reduces labour is good. “It is a lot of work,” Sandra said. “We prune in the spring as soon as the

Norwood Chiropractic clinic expands

Council approves two six-plexes with shared entrance in Hastings By John Campbell

Trent Hills – A pair of six-unit apartment buildings will be built on separate lots in Hastings that will share a common entrance. Two people spoke in support of the proposal and two against when the rezoning application by John Little came up for discussion at Trent Hills council’s Sept. 6 meeting. Little said he plans to build luxury two-bedroom apartments with laundry rooms and heated floors for young retirees. The two vacant lots on Elizabeth Street he’s chosen are an “ideal spot,” being within easy walking distance of the post office, drug store, supermarket and library. Doug Frost and Jeff Timms, who handed in a petition opposed to the development, spoke against the proposal. “It‘s not going to add value to the community as a whole,” and it will “change the feel of the neighbourhood,” reducing the value of his property, Timms said. Frost said, “There are empty apartments all over Hastings. What makes you think if you build 12 more apartments they’re going to be rented out?” Both men also warned the apartment building will create more traffic in the neighbourhood. Jacqueline Beamish said she’s ready to move out of her house and into a sixplex, and she knows five other people in Hastings waiting for the apartments to be built. Rod Williams said he’s “strongly in fa-

vour” of the six-plexes, saying he and his wife are looking to downsize from their four-bedroom house in Warkworth, and he knows Little will put up “quality” buildings “with great attention to detail.” “I‘m taking a big risk here investing my retirement fund in an apartment building, so I‘m not about to do it on the cheap,” Little said, and he isn‘t looking to provide subsidized housing. They‘re going to be “upscale apartments, something we can all be proud of,” he said, adding he‘s been told there‘s a waiting list with 72 couples looking for two-bedroom apartments in Campbellford. “This is a great idea,” Councillor Bill Thompson said of the proposal. Deputy-Mayor Bob Crate, who lives next door to where the six-plexes will be built, said he had no objection. Mayor Hector Macmillan said the province is “adamant” about wanting “increased densities inside urban centres where services already exist for the bulk of the population.” If council were to turn down Little‘s application, ( it didn’t) the municipality “absolutely will lose” an appeal at an Ontario Municipal Board hearing, he said. Director of planning Jim Peters said in a report it is a goal of the municipality‘s Official Plan to make more rental housing available and “to encourage a greater mix of housing as over 80 per cent of Trent Hills housing stock are single detached dwellings.” He also pointed out the maximum density allowed under the plan for each lot is nine units, and the proposal is for six each.

Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto, spending his last year working in a clinic that served Aboriginal populations in the area and a community practice in North York. “I knew I needed to come back to the country,” he said. “The city was a nice place to visit, but I always knew I wanted to come back to this way of life.” He had kept in touch with Dr. Clements and she introduced him to Dr. Rawluk.

Dr. Rawluk is at the Norwood clinic Mondays from 2:30 to 6 p.m. and Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.. Dr. Norman is at the clinic Monday and Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Wednesday from 1 to 6 p.m. and Fridays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dr. Norman is currently accepting new patients and has a special interest in working with children, as he himself experienced significant relief from chiropractic care as a child.

Norwood – The Norwood Chiropractic Clinic has expanded, with Dr. Michael Norman joining Dr. Tara Rawluk’s practice. Dr. Rawluk, who set up her own office from scratch in Campbellford 16 years ago, purchased the clinic in March, 2013, following the death of Dr. Bert Vanderham, and has been trying to build it up since then. She continues to practise in Campbellford at the Trent Hills Health Centre. The Norwood clinic is “my expansion from there,” the Campbellford area native said. “It’s a separate practice, but we do have patients who live in between who go to either, depending on convenience.” Dr. Rawluk does chiropractic as well as acupuncture with two massage therapists at the Norwood clinic. Dr. Norman grew up on the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory and went to school in Belleville, where he developed an interest in healthcare, “job shadowing” doctors, nurses and technicians at Belleville General Hospital while in high school. “That strengthened my resolve to go into health care,” he says. But heading off to Queen’s University to study biology and psychology, he had yet to decide what area of health care to pursue. That changed after a career fair in his third year, when he listened to a chiropractor speak and recalled the positive treatment he received from Dr. Sue Clements in Belleville when he was a young boy and throughout high school. Apart from Dr. Clements’s expertise, he said that her “style of patient care and personality” left an indelible impression. After graduating from Queens, Dr. Michael Norman has joined Dr. Sue Rawluk’s Norwood Chiropractic Bill Freeman/Metroland Dr. Norman spent four years at the Clinic in the Norwood Medical Building.

Norwood – Judy Chaplin, president of the Asphodel-Norwood Historical Society and the driving force behind the heralded heritage centre and museum in Westwood, says it’s time to step aside and let someone with fresher ideas take over. Chaplin officially tendered her resignation last month and was honoured during the group’s Sept. 20 meeting. Chaplin joined the Society in 2003 and became president in November of 2010. In 2011, she was presented with a Peterborough County Volunteer Historical Preservation Award, and last year the Society received the County’s Heritage Preservation Award. “I haven’t regretted for one minute being a member or president,” Chaplin said before the Tuesday night meeting. “It’s just time for someone else to step in. They’ll have fresher ideas.” Back in 2003, fellow genealogist Viv Thompson suggested Chaplin attend a Historical Society meeting. “I did, and I was hooked right from the get-go,” she recalled. Chaplin jumped right in researching the personal history of soldiers listed on the Norwood Cenotaph. She continues to work on something every day. Chaplin hesitated to call the heritage centre a legacy, but said she was “proud and pleased” to see it open in 2015. She

said that seeing the Society’s disparate collection housed and displayed under one roof in the former Asphodel Township municipal office was a highlight and a labour of love. “We were lucky we got that place,” Chaplin said, acknowledging ongoing support from township council. “It’s amazing how much you can find out about your township,” she said. “It is very important for the township to keep and record the history of our forebears, and I will continue to do research to this end,” she wrote in her resignation letter. “I sincerely hope the new president and caretaker of our heritage centre will find the experience as fulfilling as I have.” Vice president Terry Stephens said Chaplin is “always very active taking on many projects of local interest” and has spent countless hours researching, making prints of old photos and documents and maps and restoring and framing them for display to promote the history of the area. A favourite ongoing project, Stephens said, is researching the genealogy of local settlers and their families. The impressive collection now covers a whole wall of the museum. The Centre’s “Brides of the Township” exhibition this past summer was highly successful and led to a number of new and important donations.

Quinte West – A visit to one Doors Open Quinte West location was almost like a journey 65 million years back in time. Research Casting International, a well-known Trenton-based business that makes dinosaur sculptures, participated in the event on Saturday, Oct. 1. Although the business is located in a secluded dead end dirt road off Dufferin Street, hundreds of cars jammed the area during the day, and dozens of families – many pushing baby strollers – made the pilgrimage to the front door, knowing a rare opportunity to visit the business was as good as a trip to a museum. Once inside, visitors oooed and awed at the skeleton figures of several giant creatures on display.

Skeletons of a tyrannosaurus rex, a stegosaurus and a brachiosaurus among others, drew attention inside the 55,000 square-foot warehouse. Research Casting owner Peter May said he takes great pride in opening his business to the public for the annual Doors Open events, as he’s done so for all but one year since coming to Trenton about a decade ago. “It’s nice to open it up to the community,” he said, looking around at hundreds of excited visitors. “They hear about what we do, today they get to see a little bit of it.” Research Casting is hired by museums around the world to take dinosaur fossils and cast them so they’re ready to present in museums. Many of its skeletons now appear at Toronto’s Royal Ontario Museum. Some of the projects on display on Saturday were being prepared for a

museum in Kuwait City. May, who worked for museums for years before opening his business in Trenton, said he’s happy to be in the city. And it brings him joy when local people discover there’s an interesting business located in their own community. “It’s here, but the work takes place all over the world,” he said. “It’s the nature of the business.” Research Casting was one of 15 businesses participating in Doors Open, an event that encourages buildings and businesses of interest to the public to open for a Saturday and offer tours. Among other participants were Trenton Town Hall 1861, Wild Card Brewing and the National Air Force Museum.

Military police launch forces’ Sexual Offense Response Team By Ross Lees

Metroland Media

CFB Trenton – The Canadian Armed forces has announced a new 18-member team dedicated to supporting the investigation of criminal sexual offences within the CAF and the Department of National Defence (DND). The announcement was made Tuesday at a press conference here by the Canadian Armed Forces Provost Marshall Brigadier-General Robert Delaney. The Sexual Offence Response Team (SORT), an Operation HONOUR (Op HONOUR) initiative, increases the ability of the Canadian Forces National Investigating Service (CFNIS) to “protect and support victims of sexually based offences by identifying, investigating and helping prosecute persons responsible for criminal sexual offences within the military.” In making the formal announcement, the forces outlined the specially-trained team that is already in place and conducting operations in six locations across Canada. SORT members would be receiving the most advanced training available to help make them “subject matter experts” in the field of sexual offences, according to Delaney.

“We have already spent the last three days with subject matter experts from the International Association of Chiefs of Police as well as Mr. Russell Strand from the American Military Police Academy, a former special agent with the Army’s criminal investigative division and the ‘Godfather,’ if you will, of a technique known as forensic experiential trauma interviews, an emerging technique that recognizes that victims of traumatic events such as sexual assault, often have difficulty recounting the exact details of the trauma they have experienced. Through some of the techniques our investigators have learned, there is a recognition that not all victims are able to give a precise account of what they experienced,” said Delaney. An awareness of this, he said, will allow SORT personnel to better support victims when complaints of sexual misconduct come forward to the CFNIS. Rear-Admiral Jennifer Bennett, Director General, Canadian Armed Forces Strategic Response Team on Sexual Misconduct, said elimination of harmful sexual behavior within the military will be “achieved through short- and long-term steps.” In the short term, support of victims must be more effective, she said, and decisive when incidents occur. In the long term, the military culture must be understood and changed to ensure all

members are treated with the respect and dignity that is their due. “The short and long-term efforts are designed to complement each other for effective victim support and decisive leadership to help create an environment that encourages incident reporting. This, in turn, helps build a leadership culture that is more supportive and responsive to the needs of our members,” she said. “Over the first six months of 2016, we have seen a 22 per cent increase in incidents reported to the military police; about half of them being old cases predating Op HONOUR. This demonstrates to us that some of these victims now trust their leaders. They believe we will hear them and act appropriately,” she added. Brig.-Gen. Delaney noted during the press conference that the Op HONOUR stemmed from the report by Chief Justice Madame

training would enhance the already excellent work the CFNIS was doing. “We focused on two areas; getting more resources in there and, secondly, getting them the advanced training they need to really be subject matter experts in this field,” he noted. “The creation of the SORT and the increase in personnel to tackle these crimes will enable us to better support victims of sexual misconduct and ensure timely, professional investigations.”

CAF Provost Marshall Brig.-Gen. Robert Delaney officially announced the establishment of a new 18-member team dedicated to supporting the investigation of criminal sexual offences within the CAF and the DND on Sept. 20 while Rear-Admiral Jennifer Bennett, Director General, Canadian Armed Forces Strategic Response Team on Sexual Misconduct looks on.

Deschamps which gave insight into the perception of the military police as an investigative agency and a police agency. He said it also gave rise to concerns from the victims’ standpoint in terms of how the MPs had been conducting investigations and supporting them in the past. To get better at these types of investigations, Delaney said the force recognized resources would assist with timeliness of investigations and

• A majority of Canadian Forces National Investigation Service investigations revolve around sexual related matters. The Sexual Offence Response Team provides investigators with a nucleus of expertise regarding historical investigative techniques; new trends in law enforcement concerning sexually based offences; and best practices for future sexual related investigations. • Frontline military police remain a key part of the investigation process as they are often the first point of contact for complainants in reporting any offence. Military Police often interact with victims as they attempt to deal with their trauma. The first and primary task in those situations is to support and protect victims. • The 18 investigators of the Sexual Offence Response Team are dispersed in three-member teams at the six Canadian Forces National Investigation Service’s regional offices located in Victoria, Edmonton, Borden, Ottawa, Valcartier and Halifax. • In addition to standard training received by all investigators in

the Canadian Forces National Investigation Service, members of the Sexual Offence Response Team also receive specialized training in investigating sexual assault, physical abuse and child death, investigating offences against children, investigative and forensic interviewing techniques, and trauma informed care training. • The Canadian Forces National Investigation Service is a unit within the independent Canadian Forces Military Police Group whose mandate is to investigate serious and sensitive matters in relation to Department of National Defence property, Department of National Defence employees and Canadian Armed Forces personnel serving in Canada and around the world. • Any member who has experienced or witnessed harmful and inappropriate sexual behavior of any kind in the Canadian Armed Forces has a range of options available to him or her.

Rebels badly outshot in three losses to open the season

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. M a t t h e w 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 Eastern Conference, but does have a tie, 2-2, against the Gananoque Islanders.

Norwood â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Norwood J.J. Stewart Nemesis are still in the hunt for their first Canadian Premier Junior Hockey League win after dropping a pair of weekend games. The Nemesis (0-3) lost on the road 7-2 to the Almonte Jr. Sharpshooters Saturday, Oct. 1, then took an 8-3 loss at home Sunday night to the Glengarry Highlanders. Things looked promising for Norwood at the Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre Sunday night with the Nemesis holding the edge in play and shots (15-14) in the first period but were even on the scoreboard at 1-1 with Jesse Corbeil scoring. The Highlanders moved in front 2-1 at the 15:16 mark of the second then made it 3-1 just 10 minutes later before Norwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cut the lead to 3-2 on a Garrett Ouellette marker with 4:12 left in the frame. Glengarry doubled the score with 2:33 left, then pounced all over the short-staffed Nemesis in the third, firing in four straight goals, including a pair by Felix Stephen 10 seconds apart.

Twelve-a-side football returns to Norwood By Bill Freeman

Norwood – The 34-0 score might have indicated a tough start, but Norwood District High is thrilled to get 12-a-side football back on the gridiron after a couple of seasons of the more novel six-a-side game. “I’m excited we’re playing 12-a-side football again at Norwood,” junior head coach Todd Murray said. Low numbers forced the switch to the six-a-side game, but kept football alive at the school with a promising future ahead, thanks to a very large cohort of grade nines taking up the game this fall. The NDHS seniors still play fast-paced six-a-side. They lost their season opener 21-0 to the Bayside Secondary Devils. When football returned to NDHS in 2004 after an absence of nearly 30 years, the juniors stormed the field and won the COSSA title, so there’s a strong tradition in place, including another COSSA title from the late 1970s.

“We’re pleased with the numbers,” Murray said. “Over half the team played their first football game today and 90 per cent played their first game of 12-a-side. Our job is to get them better, and that’s what we’re going to do.” The juniors opened the season against a Thomas A. Stewart squad with Peterborough Wolverine and Kinsmen Minor Football experience. They’ll see that again when they play Crestwood, but it’s a good learning opportunity, said Murray. “They have that knowledge, compared to kids just learning,” he said. “We never really did first downs and second downs in practice. We were just doing skills and prepping for scrimmages.” Murray expects to see an entirely different Knights team by the end of the season, when they play schools of comparable size. In the meantime, they’re enjoying the return of the bigger game, knowing that the junior players will feed into the senior program and help bring 12-a-side football completely back to NDHS.

Brighton features Lange & Fetter Ford ‘Eve of Destruction’ More than 150 cars flooded the pit area for the Lange & Fetter Ford Eve of Destruction event at Brighton Speedway on Saturday Afternoon. The Hotch’s Auto Parts 100-lap Monster Enduro and Workman’s OK Tire School Buses were the main events of the day to thrill the capacity crowd. Hotch’s Auto Parts Monster Enduro The Hotch’s Auto Parts 100-lap Monster Enduro saw 133 cars take the initial green flag. Chaos ensued around the racetrack as drivers fought for every spare inch available – and there weren’t many to be found. A couple of red flags were issued to slow the race due to cars on fire, but all were extinguished without injury. At the end of 100 laps it was Billy Nicholls driving his No.79N to victory lane over Late Model regular Charlie Sandercock in car No.57. They were the only two drivers to complete all 100 laps. Third-place finisher Corey White in car No.91w was the only driver to finish 99 laps. Junior Enduro The Junior Enduro was the first race of the day with 20 laps for drivers 16 and under. Travis Pearce, who started dead last in the 17th position, drove through the field and survived a late race battle with Nick Goodfellow and Joel Dempster to earn the victory. Ladies Enduro The Ladies Enduro followed second on the docket with a 30-lap main event. Over 25 cars entered the race. Chantel Golden was the class of the field, lapping all but one car until she suffered a flat right-front tire with five laps to go.
