MP won’t seek re-election

Gerald Keddy says he’ll serve remainder of term

By STACEY [email protected]

COUNTY — South Shore-St. Margaret’s MP Gerald Keddy has announced he will not seek re-election.

“There’s a lot of work I personally wanted to pur-sue in this riding and I think a lot of that work is done,” said the Conservative MP in a May 26 interview from Ottawa.

“After what will, come the next election, have been 18 years and five months, it’s time for me to call it a day — not without some second thoughts and not without a lot of personal angst, but it’s the right deci-sion.”

Mr. Keddy was first elected in 1997, and helped his party form the government in 2006 and earn a majority in 2011.

“For a young kid who grew up in New Ross, Nova Scotia, to get to be an elected MP, it shows you we really do have a great parlia-mentary system and tradition, and that it’s equal for all.”

He said the timing of his announcement was made in part to allow time for a proper nomina-tion process for his potential successor.

“By announcing now, potential candidates who may not be members of the party have an opportunity to take out their membership and to start to do some work,” said Mr. Keddy.

“If we’re going to have a proper renewal and a prop-er candidate search committee able to do the work, it’s only fair to announce now. I, frankly, had considered holding off, but that’s just the wrong way to do it.”

He plans to serve out the remainder of his term through October 2015.

Community Christmas dinner in jeopardyEvent could be cancelled without new volunteer leaders


BRIDGEWATER — Bridgewater’s annual community Christmas dinner is in jeopardy of being cancelled this year unless new volunteers step forward to run the event.

“Without this kind of leadership, the dinner will not happen in 2014,” said Brian Braganza, a founding mem-ber of the non-profit committee which has run the event for the past five years and whose leadership terms have come to an end.

“We feel, with the success of the event and the sys-tems in place, it is a good time to pass it on to another group. We all feel like, at this time, there are other ex-

citing initiatives that we want to be involved with in Bridgewater.”

However, nobody responded to a public appeal for new core team members over the winter and, although the organizers are planning another public appeal at the end of summer, they are prepared for the fact the event may not happen this year.

“We are grateful for all the volunteers and community support that has come forward in past years to support the dinner. We understand that people will be disap-pointed if the [dinner] doesn’t happen in 2014. It has been an important event for our core team, the Town of Bridgewater and citizens,” said Mr. Braganza.

“Though it’s a difficult decision for us to make, we trust that it is the right one and may create opportunities for other great things to happen in Bridgewater.”

In the meantime, the board is planning to main-tain its non-profit status regardless of whether or not it continues in 2014.

“If a group wanted to step in for 2015, they still could.”

The core organizers typically include individu-als to lead the facilities and atmosphere team, the food team, and the outreach team, as well as a couple people to manage the big picture.

“A few of us would be willing to coach and sup-port a new team,” said Mr. Braganza.

“As well, we have really good systems in place and documented, so we would provide all this info and our local community contacts to the group.”

The event is an inclusive community dinner on Christmas Day, usually attended by more than 400 people, about half of whom volunteer in some

capacity.“Cate de Vreede and I started it with a team in

2009,” said Mr. Braganza.“We had no idea how it would go or how many

people might come to the event. We were positively overwhelmed by the success and the outpouring of goodwill from volunteers and the community to support it. We believe, as was evident in the re-sponse to the dinner, that there is a deep longing for people to celebrate together and build community.”

They hope to see that longing fulfilled through-out the year.

“What was most important for us was that the dinner foster a sense of community and inclusion — that no matter what people’s age or social, eco-nomic, religious, or cultural background — all are welcome to volunteer or come as guests. We really feel the dinner achieved this goal and we hope this attitude can live beyond the dinner.”

Operating rooms closed temporarilyHospital expected measure to last three days

BRIDGEWATER — South Shore Regional’s three operating rooms were closed on May 26 for an emer-gency repair of the hospital’s air handling unit.

“Our immediate concern is pa-tient safety. We need to do this re-pair to ensure proper air exchange and ventilation in the operating rooms, which is critical for infection prevention and control,” said vice-president of health services Lynn Farrell in a statement.

“Cancelling elective surgery is not a decision we take lightly. We certainly understand and regret the concern and inconvenience this delay may cause our patients and will be doing our best to reschedule the procedures as quickly as possible.”

The operating rooms were expected to be back in service by May 29.

During the temporary clo-sure, emergency surgeries were planned to be performed in the hospital’s obstetrics unit, which has a fully functioning operating suite.

“South Shore Health has also contacted neighbouring health authorities who have offered support if necessary,” said the release.

Up to 50 patients scheduled for elective procedures may have been impacted.

“These patients are being contacted directly by hospital staff and will have their cases re-booked as soon as possible.”

Convicted in tavern stabbing

Sentencing date to be set next month

By LISA [email protected]

BRIDGEWATER — A man with a history of violent crime was convicted of aggravated assault and assault with a weapon last week in connection with a stabbing outside a Bridgewater tavern in October.

Provincial Court Judge Jim Burrill said he was convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that Jahmal Leslie Thomas was the person who stabbed Bobby Childs near the Tops’l Tavern just after 2 a.m. on October 6.

Mr. Childs was rushed to hospital with a lacerated spleen, damaged diaphragm, and a fractured and displaced rib.

At trial earlier this year, Mr. Childs testified he was on his way to his vehicle for cigarettes after spending the evening cel-ebrating his birthday with his wife and friend when he bumped shoulders with a stranger on the sidewalk.

The pair exchanged words, then the man pulled a knife and stabbed him once in the side.

Mr. Thomas, 33, was arrested at the scene.While the defence attempted to discredit Crown witness ac-

counts of what happened that night just after the tavern closed, Judge Burrill concluded minor discrepancies in the testimony over what Mr. Thomas was wearing didn’t change the facts of the case.

Surveillance video of the nearby corner showed Mr. Thomas go up the sidewalk along Victoria Road moments before Mr. Childs and several other people moved in that direction. A very short time later, the reflection of police lights can be seen.

“So what happened to Robert Childs happened very quickly after they rounded the corner,” Judge Burrill said in handing down his decision May 20.

He concluded the two men bumped shoulders as Crown witnesses de-scribed.

“It was nothing other than accidental, I’m satis-fied, at that point in time,” Judge Burrill said.

Mr. Thomas later told police he was “mad” and “pissed off ” at the time.

While Mr. Childs couldn’t identify Mr. Thomas as the assailant at trial, his friend Adam Acker did. Both men tes-tified the person who stabbed Mr. Childs was the same person who bumped into him.

“I believe them and I accept their evidence. It proves beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused was the person who had the knife, flicked it open and put it into Robert Childs’ side that night,” Judge Burrill said.

Police later found the knife in the first parking spot in the tavern lot. The knife had “some distinctive features,” the judge said, and Cst. Shawn Himmelman recognized it as being identi-cal to one he’d returned to Mr. Thomas after examining it in July.

The knife had a black handle and black blade. It had circular ends and a piece of mechanical chain molded into the handle.

The weapon later tested positive for Mr. Childs’ blood, al-though it did not have any other DNA or fingerprints on it.

Mr. Thomas has remained in custody since his arrest having been denied bail.

He has a history of committing violent crimes and weapons offences, and has served federal time in the past.

In 2008, the Parole Board of Canada indicated he has a past affiliation with gangs and “shows a concerning level of comfort with a violent, criminal lifestyle.”

He’s scheduled to return to court next month to set a date for his sentencing.

Judge Burrill found Mr. Thomas not guilty of a charge of car-rying a knife for a dangerous purpose and dismissed allegations that he breached earlier release conditions.

“It proves beyond a reasonable doubt that

the accused was the per-son who had the knife,

flicked it open and put it into Robert Childs’ side

that night.”Judge Jim Burrill

MP won’t seek re-election

Councillors denied access to legal document

Concerns of transparency in MODL still abound

By LUKE [email protected]

COUNTY — Another councillor for the Municipality of Lunenburg has concerns of openness and transparency in the mu-nicipal government after not being per-mitted to view a legal opinion concerning public access to Sherbrooke Lake, which happens to be in his district.

At the council meeting on May 13, Terry Dorey asked council to provide to all councillors — in open session or in camera — the written legal opinion that was provided in 2011 indicating that building a road to publicly access Sher-brooke Lake was possible. Councillor Dorey and at least two of the councillors newly elected in 2012 have never viewed this written legal opinion.

It had been discussed in camera at a previous meeting of council, but Councillor Dorey left the meeting because of a conflict of interest on another mu-nicipal matter on the Vei-notte Road.

That conflict arises from his brother owning lots in a proposed devel-opment of a subdivision also on the Veinotte Road, which Councillor Dorey says has nothing to do with a survey done for a potential road for public access to Sher-brooke Lake.

“Public access to Sherbrooke Lake, in my view, would not impact on the value of my brother’s lots at all,” he said.

It is the legal opinion of the survey for a road for public access to Sherbrooke Lake that he was requesting be seen by all councillors.

“The people who supported me 18 months ago asked me to achieve some clarity,” he said.

“I wanted to have an opportunity for all of us read it, and an opportunity for all of us to discuss it. By doing that, I wasn’t suggesting that the legal opinion would be any different from what I was verbally assured in my 18 months on council.”

Councillor Dorey also requested that, after all councillors examined the docu-ment, they consider making the legal opinion public.

“I felt that was the best way to clear up this uncertainty. It’s an uncertainty that’s been in the community for many years and I felt it’s paramount for MODL to justify their actions and demonstrate to the community that their plan was valid from a legal sense.

“The request was denied — both of them.”

Councillor Dorey is now doubtful that there is viable option for access to Sher-brooke Lake since he has not been per-mitted to see the legal documents.

“This continuance of ambiguity, and this continuance of allowing something to be out there, it’s tearing communities apart. The MODL has the responsibility here to clear this up.”

He said it’s setting neighbour against neighbour and friend against friend in his district.

“For some reason, the mayor and the majority of council are quite prepared to let that happen. I find that just mind-bog-gling. Absolutely mind-boggling. There’s not a bloody thing I can do about it,” Councillor Dorey said.

“I’m absolutely baffled as to what my next step should be.”

“We’ve gone over this issue,” Council-lor Don Zwicker said at the May 13 meeting dur-ing discussion of Coun-cillor Dorey’s motion.

“It was explained and been already highlight-ed it has satisfied our concerns for decision-making. I’m not in fa-vour of going back and revisiting it. The trans-parency seems to be the flavour of the day. I’ve been around here for 23 years and transparency,

to me, has never been in question. Why it’s become a question I have no idea.”

He said staff and councillors work extremely hard to be forthright and open and working within their parameters, but there are certain things that have to go in camera.

“If that’s being a lack of transparency, then so be it. Go to the MGA [Municipal Government Act] and burn it, or do some-thing with it. But there are topics that do go in camera as decreed by the MGA,” Councillor Zwicker said.

Not all councillors agreed, however.“The flavour I got from the Parkdale-

Maplewood meeting ‘Your Government, Your Ideas’ was that there is certainly a very heightened awareness on this issue because it was the main topic of conver-sation,” Councillor Michael Ernst said at the meeting.

“I would say anything that we can do to show openness and transparency toward answering questions that people have would be very important. The opin-ion itself, you can come up with a version that you can release to the public and give them some information, but also make them aware there is some information we can’t release. That would be my view on it if we’re having a discussion.”

“I’m absolutely baffled as to what

my next step should be.”

School board discusses transportation policy

Bus stop appeals a hot topic with parents

By LEENA [email protected]

COUNTY — The South Shore Re-gional School Board has reopened the discussion on its transportation policy.

At a meeting on May 14, members of the transportation department gave an overview of its policy, with the goal of clarifying why certain rules are in place, how it aligns with other provincial policies and to review data around issues.

The appeal process of when bus stop re-quests are denied was a policy element that generated much dis-cussion.

“We are the only board in the province that gives the parents an opportunity to have an appeal process,” ex-plained transportation coordinator De-nise Crouse.

Parents and families have the option to take their concerns to a review com-mittee meeting if a bus stop request is denied. Bus stop requests are denied when they do not comply with school board policy or provincial regulations. The committee can only alter the policy if it does not interfere with those rules and regulations.

Parents representing five families from Pine Grove attended the board meeting to share their concerns around the current policy.

“[We] recently had our bus stop loca-tion moved from a really secure location to one that’s less secure by the main road, due to the fact that we don’t meet the criteria of the stopping beyond 800

metres marker,” said Jessie Sarty.Transportation is not provided for

side roads any less than 800 metres.“We’ve been through the appeal pro-

cess, we’ve gone to the review commit-tee and we were denied there as well,” he explained.

“We were denied based on the mea-surement factor. Again, child safety was measured by distances and mathemati-

cal formulas,” he said.

From April 2013 to 2014, the depart-ment had a total of 472 bus stop re-quests. Out of the requests, 322 were approved and 150 were denied. Seven-teen of the denied requests were taken to the review com-mittee, 11 of which were also denied.

Board member Vernon Simms sug-gested that the review committee policy itself needs to be reviewed to make it more effective.

“We need to change the policy to allow us to make decisions on specific circumstances,” he said.

Others members of the board echoed that there are flaws in the appeal pro-cess.

“Generally, if it’s a policy point we don’t have a lot of options,” said Chair Jennifer Naugler.

The board held an education session further discussing its transportation policy on May 21 and will continue the discussion during its committee of the whole meeting on May 28.

The transportation policy is available on the board website.

specific circumstances.”Vernon Simms

The time is now Lunenburg CountySomething exciting is beginning to happen

here.After laying dormant just under the surface

for far too long, it’s heating up and beginning to bubble. Very soon, it’s going to erupt.

It’s called change.A brave and inspiring group of people recently

formed Now Lunenburg County in response to the Ivany Report released in February. They read and heard the predictions for further decline without ac-tion and, instead of bemoaning the state of the prov-ince and wringing their hands over what could be a dismal future, they decided to do something about it.

The group began talking about the need for change, largely beginning with an attitude adjust-ment — a need to look for positives, for opportuni-ties, for ways to improve things, for chances to make a difference.

They invited a larger group of people to gather to talk about the future, but not just to talk. These people had to be prepared to participate and take responsibility for their future and the future of this county. They had to be people who didn’t want to just wring their hands, but individuals prepared to roll up their sleeves.

That’s when another inspiring thing happened — people took up the cause.

More than 90 people gathered on May 13 to dis-cuss the future. They included local government and business leaders, artists, agency representatives, community-minded individuals — people from vari-ous backgrounds with one wonderful thing in com-mon — they care about Lunenburg County and they care enough to work for change.

Almost immediately, the gathering found common ground. They visualize a Lunenburg County where young people can find good jobs, where immigrants and retirees are accepted and valued, where the unspoiled environment is preserved, and where less government aids rather than hinders the growth of business and entrepreneurs.

As Elspeth McLean-Wile, one of the founders of Now Lunenburg County, describes it, “There was an underlying sentiment expressed in various com-ments that we must respect our traditions without feeling they are limiting our future.”

That’s simply another way of saying that people need to get over the fear of change if this county is going to move forward towards a better future, if that bubbling energy is going to erupt.

Here’s where it gets really exciting.So often, people gather in meetings and talk about

problems and possible solutions. They conduct studies and write reports that then gather dust on shelves. The desire is there, but never quite makes it into action.

Now Lunenburg County is different. This group is going to move beyond planning. It’s going to be a platform for action.

Together, that larger group identified 18 projects that will contribute to a brighter future here. They cover a gamut of areas, from business and transpor-tation to education and health care.

People committed to work on those projects and they have a timetable. Within the next few weeks, that work will start. There will be a series of com-munity gatherings in the coming months and, in Oc-tober, there will be another Now Lunenburg County session where project leaders will report on what progress has been made.

The Ivany Report told all Nova Scotians the dif-ficulties facing this province. It challenged each and every one of us to recognize the issues, but also the opportunities to change the outcomes.

As the Now Lunenburg County website says, “The silence has been broken and now we all stand on the edge of the cliff. It is up to us to act.”

It’s time to stop being victims of our province’s circumstances. It’s time stop bemoaning our lot and expecting others to fix it for us. It’s time to get be-yond the fear of change. It’s time to collectively iden-tify the strengths that can propel us forward.

Now Lunenburg County has taken up the chal-lenge. The group is providing energy and ideas to get things bubbling. As that energy expands, it’s going to erupt into change and that change will equal success.

As acclaimed anthropologist Margaret Mead said, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, com-mitted citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

I wasn’t going to write another letter in support of public transit — until I read John Hiltz’ letter in the May 20 issue in which he spoke about fol-

lowing a bus from Middleton to Berwick with only two passengers. My husband and I regularly visit the valley too – unfortunately, an expensive trip in our car because there is no bus – and I would like to reassure him that we have watched with envy on various occasions as the Kings Transit bus went by carrying far more than two passengers.

Unfortunately, the debate about the need for pub-lic transportation in this area seems to be based on theories, projections and personal prejudices rather than facts. I understand that Citizens for Public Transit will soon be seeking support for transporta-tion by asking for signatures on a petition. What I would hope they would do concurrently is canvass area residents for information on whether they would use a bus and, if so, what routes they would travel on, at what times of day and for what purpos-es. Such information would help to support the need for local transportation, as well as which routes and schedules need to be provided.

I strongly support the need for transportation in this area, although I think provincial funding should first go towards a more central route along the South Shore from Yarmouth through to Shelburne, Liverpool, Bridgewater, Chester and so on up to

Tantallon, hooking up with the Halifax bus system. Another route should cross over from Bridgewater to Kentville, which is a growing centre for medical services, hooking up with the Kings Transit system. To me, having transportation to get people to medi-cal appointments is a priority as the average age of the population rises and as medical services are cen-tralized at fewer locations.

Besides the need for transportation to medical services, I think there must be many people in Nova Scotia who lose out on work, educational and social opportunities due to lack of transport, and other individuals and families must be spending a large portion of their income on running a car because there is no alternative. The naysayers to a bus sys-tem must realize that the government is not going to send a cab or dial-a-ride service over to help out all of these people. My husband and I spend about 25 per cent of our after-tax family income on run-ning a car and, when we can longer drive, I suppose we will have to spend a considerable amount of our limited retirement income on taxis to go shop-ping and attend medical appointments. But at least we will probably be able to afford to do this, unlike other lower-income seniors who will just have to stay home.

ATVers shouldn’tbe treated like criminals

Reviving hitchhiking to get around

In a nation as big as ours, it is almost impossible to get by without a car outside of large metropoli-tan centres. The provision of efficient and cost-

effective public transportation has proved to be a challenge in Lunenburg County and other rural areas, which is why I strongly believe it’s time to revisit hitchhiking as a viable means of transporta-tion.

After finishing my first year of university on the West Coast, I opted to hitchhike home rather than fly. It took me six days, 30 rides and $73.75 to hitch from Vancouver to Pinehurst, covering 6,200 kilometres. Throughout the trip I was constantly reminded of the depth of people’s kindness – I was invited into people’s homes to sleep and share meals, and had countless conversations about very personal issues with total strangers. Not once did I feel threatened.

Since being back in the county, hitchhiking has be-come my principal means of getting around. The in-frastructure to re-popularize hitchhiking is in place and requires no additional taxpayer dollars. For the price of a conversation, we can reduce the number of cars on the road — cars that often have only one occupant — and our impact on the environment, all the while connecting our community and having meaningful interactions with neighbours with whom we’ve become disconnected.

As a society we seem to have grown wary or even fearful of strangers, creating a lack of trust that is unfounded. Hitchhiking requires trust on the part of both driver and hitcher, trust that is almost without exception rewarded.

within the confines of the woods. We were not hurt-ing anyone except ourselves, period. The accidents we may experience are minor. I have never been on a run where someone needed to be transported to a hospital for injuries sustained. The damage that oc-curs usually happens to the bike itself.

I want to point out something very important. We ATVers contribute to the local economy more than the average consumer. Fifty-six bikes at an average, say at $5,000 each, equals almost $300,000 in bikes alone. Then we have bike accessories that do not come with the bike upon purchase, plus riding gear, gasoline, oil. When you take it even further, our in-comes buy gasoline for obvious reasons, food, cloth-ing, housing, etc. Still, we are treated like common criminals. If one of us should behave like one, then so be it.

No names will be mentioned, but a friend of mine had a loaded gun pointed directly at his head by none other than a conservation officer. This happened in the woods, many kilometres from pavement. He was also detained by them while waiting for the police. I, personally, would not have stopped for them, what are they going to do? Shoot me? In the back? Some-thing is seriously wrong with this picture. Maybe they should spend more of their time reading their dos and don’ts instead of thinking, “I have the power of an authority.” No way should they be issued such a weapon. If I happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time and get caught on pavement, don’t expect me to pay any fine. I would rather do jail time instead. If you treat me like a common criminal with no just cause, you just opened a huge can of worms.

Why arethe roads so bad?

Recently, after reviewing my six-month prop-erty tax bill, on looking at the cost breakdown for provincial road tax of $124.03, I can only

say I can’t drive across country from Petite Riviere as the road is in a bad way. I tried coming from town that way only to find myself using the wrong side just to avoid the road breakdowns. This is dangerous.

I now use the LaHave route which is longer, but safer.

If each and everyone is paying this road tax, just why are the roads in such bad condition?

EUNICE WESTPetite Riviere

Ripped offin Lunenburg

I bought a raincoat on sale at a store in Lunenburg last December. When I got home, I realized that the raincoat, with a sweater under it, was actually

a bit too tight. I returned it the next day but could not get my money back, as it was a sale item, but got a credit slip.

Last week, I went back to the store and guess what? The store has changed hands and my credit slip is not being honoured any longer — it has gone up in smoke. It seems to be the case for the many peo-ple who bought gift certificates at Christmas which are now worthless.

We are constantly reminded to “buy locally and support our community.” Well, I no longer hold that thought, if this is the way local businesses treat their loyal customers.

So, to whoever has my $87, go out and have some dinner and wine – it’s on me – and I’ll go somewhere else to do my shopping.

JANE VAN’T HOFBridgewater

An open and transparent government would encourage the public to speak up and voice their concerns to elected representatives.

Why then would municipal meeting policy make it so difficult for the public to speak to council during meetings?

At the May 20 committee of the whole meet-ing, Dan Lloyd wished to speak to council. Mayor Don Downe at first told him that was not allowed. Council, then a staff review of policy, corrected the mayor. A unanimous vote could allow Mr. Lloyd to speak to council.

The motion was made for Mr. Lloyd to speak and defeated by only one councillor voting against the motion – Councillor Don Zwicker, the mayor’s for-mer deputy.

Mr. Lloyd was in attendance at the meeting to voice his concerns regarding an unsightly prem-ises order against his property in Hebbs Cross. Ten members of council supported Mr. Lloyd’s desire to speak, but his request to speak was squashed by Councillor Zwicker’s lone vote. So goes local democ-racy.

Councillor Zwicker is the same individual who convinced enough, but not all, of his fellow coun-cillors to ignore municipal policy and grant him a precedent-setting retroactive leave of absence with pay because he missed three consecutive council meetings while vacationing in Florida. Under the Municipal Government Act, the staunch supporter of municipal policy would have been booted out of his council seat if his supporting council members hadn’t come to the rescue.

The unsightly premises policy is challenging for municipal staff, council and the general public. The process can be initiated by complaints from anyone. Once the process is started, municipal staff enforce the bylaws which can lead to demolition orders.

Mr. Lloyd only wanted to speak to council of his attempts to clean up his property. There is no doubt he had been given plenty of time to act, but the cost to council to allow him to speak one more time was pretty small. The cleanup costs of over $6,000 will be placed as a lien against his property. Like so many people just getting by, Mr. Lloyd could lose his prop-erty if he can’t afford the $6,000 price tag.

Openness and transparency need to include greater ability for the public to voice their concerns at council meetings. Council needs to consider policy changes, remove the tyranny of one council-lor and increase the public’s opportunities to speak directly to their elected representatives. That is fun-damental to openness and transparency.

Public voices should be heard by council

I am really not impressed with the way police and conservation officers — mostly conservation of-ficers — treat those who like using all-terrain

vehicles as a past time.I will admit I am guilty of travelling on pave-

ment, but I use it primarily to get from one trail to another, not for joyriding. At one point, we all have to use it just to get from point A to point B. I have been pulled over by a conservation officer after leav-ing the pavement. I received a warning. During the process I took off my helmet because common sense told me so and for identification purposes. He, how-ever, did not.

The second time, the conservation officer turned on his lights and chased me. I had less than a kilo-metre to travel to where the trail began. I had abso-lutely no intention of stopping for a wannabe police officer or should I say a conservation officer think-ing he has the powers of police officer. I jumped on the trail and left him behind. Surprisingly, he did not stop chasing me and tried to go where only I could. I shake my head and think, “Why am I being treated like a common criminal?”

Week after week I read the court report — DUIs, drug busts, home invasions, assaults, assaults with various weapons, attempted murders and murder. Not me, nor anyone who rides an ATV, should be treated as such. It sickens me!

I have seen up to 56 ATVs take part in a fun run. Some of these drivers were not sober but not neces-sarily drunked up either. We did our best to stay

Thinking aboutthe future

Three months have passed since the release of the report, “Now or Never — An Urgent Call to Action for Nova Scotians”. This report, pre-

pared by the Nova Scotia Commission on Building Our New Economy, received unrivaled media cover-age and public discussion during this period.

The seriousness of the report’s findings continues to be echoed by government and business leaders, environmentalists, community groups and ordinary citizens. All quickly cite the reasons for our prob-lems – out-migration of youth, an aging population demographic, lack of exports to bring new wealth to the province and a heavy dependence on government spending to fuel and support our economy.

I suggest it is time to move on. We have talked enough and action is what is needed to change the course of events and assure this province has a pros-perous future.

I was fortunate enough to participate in the Now Lunenburg County launch and saw a group of citi-zens begin to take action. Ninety people from across Lunenburg County talked about the community they would like to see in 10 years.

We all wanted the same things – a place where young people could find meaningful jobs and oppor-tunities, a community that was open and accepting of immigrants and retirees, less government, and preservation of our pristine landscapes and coastal areas. There was an underlying sentiment expressed in various comments that we must respect our tradi-tions without feeling they are limiting our future.

The participants that day identified “fear of change” as one of the biggest impediments to moving ahead as a community. Even the exercise of discuss-ing the root causes of our challenges is an important first step toward meaningful action. At the end of the day, 15 projects were identified that will contribute to making Lunenburg County a better place. Project leaders volunteered and a timetable of events to sup-port the projects was posted. Within the next month, work will begin on the projects, if you have a project idea or want to become involved, visit the website for more information on this initiative. You can sign up for the newsletter and get the details about what will happen over the next four months (http://www.nowlunenburgcounty.com ).

Now is the time to think clearly about the future we want. We need to break down the silos we work in, find ways to collaborate and begin taking action that will assure future prosperity for Lunenburg County.

High expectationsPublic hearing set to consider proposed amendments to bylaw

By ROBERT [email protected]

CHESTER — Chester council is working to define just what maximum height means when it comes to buildings in the vil-lage.

Last winter, council considered a recommendation from the village planning advisory committee [PAC] on the subject of height definitions. At the time, officials referred the matter back to the committee citing a lack of clarity and concerns about the fire department’s 33-foot height restriction.

In a March 19 report to council, senior planner Bill DeGrace reported that staff had been working on a revised height defini-tion to make it clear that all of the roof structure, not just its primary slope, must be considered when determining whether the height of a proposed new building meets the maximum height requirements.

“This is because of the ‘pitch’ rule, that is, for any roof that is 4-in-12 or less, including a flat roof, the maximum allowable height is reduced by two metres,” he wrote. “The main issue is how to deal with roofed projections, especially shed dormers which are very popular in new residential construction locally.”

Planning staff also looked at complex roof pitches such as mansards, minor entrenchments in grade and accessory struc-tures in the inner architectural control area.

Staff presented three options to PAC. The first was to retain the existing designation. The second was to amend the defini-tion by excluding minor entrenchments in grade, referencing the entire roof structure in the definition and exempting roofed projections provided they do not exceed 50 per cent of the length of the roof where they are located.

The third scenario was to amend the definition by exclud-ing minor entrenchments in grade, referencing the entire roof

structure in the definition, and defining height by measuring to the mid-point of a pitched roof, to the deck-line of a mansard roof and to the top of a flat roof.

PAC recommended the second option, but requested further clarity about roof projections and height restrictions which are 33 feet, and 25 and 23 feet in waterfront and watershed zones, respectively.

Amendments were made to grade references to clarify that the lowest grade does not include minor dips such as window wells or walk out basement doors, and to height to clarify that the entire roof structure and any part thereof is used to calcu-late the height of a main building.

A letter from Fire Chief Dave Richardson was circulated to council at their May 15 meeting which voiced concerns regard-ing any proposed increases in allowable building heights.

The chief said the department can adequately fight a fire in a structure as outlined in the current height definition; however, any structure over two stories cannot be fought properly with the equipment currently at their disposal.

In a structure higher than 33 feet, mutual aid would have to be called in from Bridgewater, Lunenburg or Windsor depart-ments which have aerial trucks.

Municipal solicitor Sam Lamey told council that over the years there has been a lot of discussion as to how the height of a building was measured.

“I think this is a step forward but may not be the last,” he said.

Council voted to adopt the recommendation from PAC in fa-vour of the second option. Since the recommendation involves a change to a municipal bylaw, a public hearing on the issue is required and that will take place during the regular session of council slated for June 12 at 8:45 a.m.

THE COURT REPORT

n Failed breathalyser. Failing the breathalyser after getting caught behind the wheel with the engine run-ning will cost a Chester man $1,300 and his licence for a year. Christopher D. Haskins, 40, pleaded guilty to a charge of exceeding the legal limit May 21 in Bridgewater provincial court. Police found him behind the wheel of a Jeep parked partially on a Lunenburg side-walk shortly before midnight on April 7. Mr. Haskins showed signs of impair-ment and had an open beer beside him. He later blew two breathalyser readings of 140 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood. In court last week, Mr. Haskins told the judge he didn’t intend to drive but was staying nearby and had the engine running to charge his laptop.

n Damaged windows. Smash-ing the windows of a man’s camp by throwing rocks landed a Western Shore man in court May 21. David Travis MacPherson, 26, pleaded guilty to a charge of mischief and was fined $115. He was also placed on pro-bation for 30 days with orders to pay $80 restitution. Mr. MacPherson broke the windows in Western Shore last September.

n Caught drinking. Drinking alco-hol while on a court order not to netted a Bridgewater man a $390 fine May 21. Steven Vance Saunders, 29, pleaded guilty to a charge of breaching a re-cognizance from May 20, when he was arrested at his home shortly after mid-night. He was intoxicated at the time.

n Guilty of assault. Hitting her then boyfriend in the face with her cellphone has earned an Aldersville woman a year on probation. That’s part of a conditional discharge which Lisa Marie Maskell, 33, received May 21 after pleading guilty to a charge of assault. It happened last July during an argument in Aldersville. She’d been drinking at the time. While on proba-tion, Ms Maskell must stay clear of alcohol — except for her employment — and take counselling as directed.

RCMP warn about phone scam

targeting seniors

COUNTY — The RCMP have issued a warning about a phone scam target-ing seniors which recently surfaced in this area

Mounties say initial investigation revealed that fraudsters are calling se-niors and posing as their grandchil-dren indicating they are in financial distress. They ask the grandparents to send money to help them. The fraud-sters can be very convincing and work quickly to have money transferred to them.

Lunenburg District RCMP are ask-ing citizens to be diligent when verify-ing who they are speaking with on the phone and to be careful not to share personal information over the phone.

Petite community park plans get funding boostBy STACEY [email protected]

PETITE RIVIERE —Petite Riviere’s com-munity park association has received a $19,000 shot in the arm.

“We are very pleased to have the support and financial contribution from Environ-ment Canada on our community park proj-ect,” said co-chair Leif Helmer following the May 20 federal government announcement.

“The staff support and advice provided by Eco-Action has really helped us improve the focus of the work. It will include a natu-ralized, living shoreline, in addition to the native plants, shrubs and trees that will be planted on the new park grounds.”

The funding will also help push the group closer to its overall goal to establish a green space beside the Petite River directly

across from the Petite General Store.“This spring, we carried out local fund-

raising through a flea market event, and con-tinue to receive donations from residents and organizations,” said Mr. Helmer.

“Taken together, all these positive steps should allow the project team to begin the restoration and park design later this sum-mer.”

The park area is at the site of the former Covey Island Boatworks operations. A fire destroyed its buildings there in 2008, and the company re-established itself in Lunenburg, but the partners of Covey decided to donate the property to the community for the ex-press purpose of creating a community park

at the village’s centre.A community group has been working towards that goal

since 2010.

“Taken together, all these positive steps

should allow the project team to begin the resto-ration and park design

later this summer.”Leif Helmer

The Honourable J.J. Grant, lieutenant-governor of Nova Scotia, and Her Honour Mrs. Joan Grant, attended the award ceremony at Bridgewa-ter Junior Senior High School on May 22. Grade 11 stu-dents were honoured for their leadership in the community and at school.

Students receive Lieutenant Governor’s AwardEleven South Shore teens honoured


COUNTY — A group of Grade 11 students on the South Shore were recently awarded the Lieutenant Governor’s education medal, recognizing leadership, community service and high academic standings.

Lt.-Gov. J.J. Grant and his wife attended the award ceremony at Bridgewater Junior Se-nior High School on May 22.

Eleven students re-ceived the award, one boy and one girl from each of the South Shore’s high schools. Students are nominated by their school each year.

“The challenges you face as a young person in the 21st century are

certainly much different than those I would have encountered growing up in New Glasgow many years ago,” said the lieuten-ant-governor.

“However, the importance of treating your fellow citizens with kindness and respect never waned with time. These values will serve you well throughout your professional and your per-sonal life, and will help to guide you when you encounter seem-ingly insurmountable obstacles on your path to adulthood,” he said.

One of the award recipients this year was Aidan Davidson, a student at Park View Education Centre.

“All the hard work definitely paid off,” said Ms Davidson, who is a participant of the school’s IB Diploma program.

She explained that as part of the program students complete community service hours.

“We’re encouraged to go through creative hours, service hours and activity hours. It really helps you get out into sports and into service and your community,” said Ms Davidson, who is an active volunteer in school groups including students’ coun-cil, key club and Me-to-We.

Kelby Russell also received the award and is known as a gen-erous and active member of his community, participating in the school’s soccer team and the dance committee.

“I want to help people every day and actually make a differ-ence,” said Mr. Russell, a student at Forest Heights Community School. In the future he hopes to be a paramedic.

“This foundation will serve you well as future leaders in our region, our country and in the global village. You exemplify the success of all partners in education and I’m so very proud of all of you,” said Jennifer Naugler, school board chair.

Students receiving the medals this year included Katelyn Dorey and Kelby Russell from Forest Heights Community School, Lori Anthony and Jacob Mooers of Liverpool Regional High School, Katherine Porter and Avery Jenkins of New Ger-many Rural High School, Lukas von Wahl of North Queens Rural High School, and Aidan Davidson and Ozzie Damiani of Park View Education Centre.

“Soon you will be moving on to further educational and em-ployment opportunities in Nova Scotia and beyond. You will be exposed to new people, ideas and experiences that will challenge you and help you grow into the person that you want to be,” said Lt.-Gov. Grant.

“I would encourage you to seek out mentors who want to share their knowledge and derive happiness from nurturing the success of others,” he said.

“I want to help people every day and actually

make a difference.”Kelby RussellAward recipient

Womancaught with van load of

stolen goodsBy LISA BROWN

[email protected]

COUNTY — A Western Shore woman will spend 21 months on proba-tion after she was caught with a van load of stolen goods.

Nicole Lee Coolen, 26, was also spot-ted stealing two televisions from a grocery store.

She pleaded guilty to charges of theft and possessing stolen property when she appeared in Bridgewater provincial court May 21.

Crown attorney John Todd Martin said the theft happened in Antigonish last September.

Three people were spotted trying to leave a grocery store with two enter-tainment systems and several grocery

items which totalled nearly $800.

When they were confronted by staff, Ms Cool-en and a man ran away and took off in a van. Another man was stopped, but he then also ran and was picked up by the van.

At the time, a couple of items fell out of the

van — headphones and a tablet com-puter later identified as having been stolen from the local Wal-Mart.

On March 21, Ms Coolen was ar-rested after a man was confronted try-ing to steal nearly $1,000 worth of mer-chandise from the Amherst Wal-Mart. He fled in a van which police located.

Ms Coolen was inside, along with more than $6,000 worth of merchan-dise which had been stolen from Wal-Mart stores from Quebec through to Amherst.

In court last week, Mr. Martin said the size and pattern of the thefts were a concern, saying it “basically amounts to a spree.”

He joined the defence in recom-mending a lengthy period of proba-tion.

Legal aid lawyer Bob Chipman said his client has addiction issues and made poor choices.

“She says she got in with the wrong crowd and is certainly regretful,” he said.

Judge Gregory Lenehan said Ms Coolen may not have had a previous criminal record, but warned her she came close to going to jail.

“This has all the markings or indi-cations of people as a criminal enter-prise … just moving from one place to another hitting the same basic type of outlets,” he said. “You knew it was going on and you were involved.”

While on probation, Ms Coolen must take counselling as directed and stay away from three people also charged in connection with the crimes.

“You knew it was going on and you

were in-volved.”

Drugs-for-sex case nets ‘merchant’ of ‘misery’ two years in jail

By KEITH [email protected]

BRIDGEWATER — A “petty retailer” in the drug trade and “merchant” of “misery” is going to jail for two years as part of his sentence on convictions of trafficking hydromorphone and breaching ear-lier release conditions to keep the peace.

Dustin Craig Collicutt, 24, previously pleaded guilty to the charges in connection the Chester Basin man’s admission that he gave Dilaudid pills to two girls under the age of 18 in exchange for oral sex. Provincial Court Judge Jim Burrill sentenced Mr. Collicutt on May 26.

As part of his sentence, Mr. Collicutt was or-dered to provide a DNA sample to the national criminal data bank. He’s also banned from owning firearms for 10 years.

Mr. Collicutt’s made great strides in drug reha-bilitation, having now been clean for about a year, the court heard. He’s mended fences with his family and maintained employment.

Judge Burrill opted not to go with a court order that commonly allows house arrest for offenders who comply with specific conditions.

“While this court believes fully in the condi-tional sentence program, regrettably, in this case, I conclude that a conditional sentence order would not provide an appropriate level of denunciation or deterrence for the offence you have committed

in this circumstance,” he explained to Mr. Collicutt during sentencing.

The court heard during previous proceedings that two girls under the age of 18 arranged to meet Mr. Collicutt in a public park in July 2012. The girls were in withdrawal and offered oral sex in exchange for pills. Each teen ultimately received Dilaudid pills.

A report presented to the court detailed text mes-sages between Mr. Collicutt and a girl which con-tained discussions pertaining to drugs in exchange for oral sex.

Judge Burrill labelled Mr. Collicutt a couple of times during sentencing.

“I’m satisfied that he generally fits, based on all I’ve read in the text messages that have been agreed to by the defence, that he could be described as a petty retailer,” of Dilaudid during the timeframe in relation to the case, he remarked.

Prescription pills, such as Dilaudid, are becom-ing too familiar in cases coming before the courts, including in Bridgewater, Judge Burrill indicated.

“It causes misery to countless people and count-less families, and those who sell it, trade for it, traf-fic in it, could be described as merchants of that misery,” he said. “That’s what Mr. Collicutt was and he was that at a time even when he was bound by a court order awaiting trial on other charges unrelated to drugs.”

Health minister suggests changes for Lunenburg hospital


COUNTY — Nova Scotia’s health minister thinks a collaborative emergency centre (CEC) would be a good fit for the Lunenburg hospital.

A shared approach concerning emergency care, broader than the involvement of just one physi-cian on shift, is expected to impact the volume of emergency room closures plaguing Fishermen’s Memorial Hospital.

Health Minister Leo Glavine indicated that the province appreciates how that scenario could translate to people in the Lunenburg area.

“My view at this time … is to say a CEC, or if we want to call it 24/7 family medicine, … that CEC version is what is looking like what will best serve Lunenburg,” Mr. Glavine told southshorenow.ca and the Lunenburg County Progress Bulletin.

“The announcements of [emergency depart-ment] closures are absolutely upsetting to the popu-lation and it doesn’t guarantee, obviously, the best health care delivery, so we are certainly pointing in the direction of a CEC for Fishermen’s Memorial.”

A government news release from 2011 explains CECs are designed to “ensure that Nova Scotians living in smaller communities will be able to see a doctor the same day or next day and will have 24/7 access to emergency care.” The Lunenburg CEC, announced in December 2012 while the Dexter NDP government was in power, “will focus on provid-

ing enhanced access to prima-ry care including same-day, or next-day medical appointments with a variety of health-care professionals including collab-orative primary-care teams.”

The McNeil Liberal govern-

ment has tasked a health care consultant to prepare an evaluation report examining CEC operations in other communities to see if the care model is meeting goals and expectations. The report is due this year and, Mr. Glavine promised, it will be made public.

A preliminary look at existing CECs show “peri-ods of tremendous underutilization,” Mr. Glavine said.

“It’s not a review of what can be cut out, but we know there are cases now where CECs may be get-ting one visit, or 1.5 averaging per day, from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. That’s the kind of information any deci-sion would be based on.”

Dave Wilson, the health minister in the Dexter administration, worries the Liberals are dragging their heels because of their focus on blending dis-trict health authorities.

“They’ve been in power almost eight months or more here now and they’ve been very quiet about collaborative emergency centres,” Mr. Wilson said to southshorenow.ca and the Lunenburg County Progress Bulletin.

“My fear is they’re spending so much of their time and energy revamping and amalgamating the district health authorities that they’re not paying attention to what’s important to Nova Scotians and that’s front line health care.”

He said areas that have CECs have seen reduc-tions in emergency department closures.

“It’s a great model being worked upon across the country, actually,” he explained.

“It really utilizes all the professions and all the health-care workers to their full scope of practice, which is important, and I think it really is the answer to some of the problems we’ve seen for de-cades here in the province around emergency room closures.”

NOTICE REGARDING BY-LAW AMENDMENT

MUNICIPALITY OF THE DISTRICT OF CHESTER

Repeal Part “H” of the Sewer By-Law No. 34 and replace with a charge for sewer services applicable to all Municipal systems based on Equivalent Dwelling Units.


COUNTY — If you have property in the Municipality of Lunenburg and a complaint is made that it is a dangerous or unsightly premise, you could be financially responsible for the cleanup.

District of Lunenburg councillors voted at committee of the whole May 20 to order the clean up of three properties at the expense of the owners.

The property at Mines Road #2 in Hebbs Cross owned by Daniel Lloyd was issued an order to remove junk, garbage, auto parts, construction debris, temporary structures and five derelict vehicles. The complaint had been withdrawn, but the municipality must move forward with it anyway.

The bid for cleanup of the property was awarded to Gerald Delong at $6,083.50.

Katherine Coutts, who owns the property at 1324 Highway 332, First South, had been ordered last August to demolish an old house and storage building. The house was demolished and cleaned up but the storage building remained.

Committee of the whole voted to award the cleanup bid to W.M. Gerhardt for $1,826.20.

The property at 29 Cove Rd., Conquerall Bank, owned by Lee Harnish was the site of an abandoned house with unsightly construction debris at the back end. Mr. Harnish did some work to repair the back part of the building, but he has been ordered to take down the main structure.

The committee voted for the staff ’s recommendation to award the bid to G.E.’s All Trucking for $2,106.27.

Schools gettingcapital repairs

Roof work,oil tank replacements on list


COUNTY — Four local schools will receive between $150,000 and $250,000 apiece this year to address capital re-pairs thanks to a shot in the arm from the Department of Education.

“This funding announcement, and specifically the one-year increase in funding, is great news as it has allowed us to address some of our very high priority safety needs in our schools without having to take money out of the classroom to do so,” said South Shore Regional School Board co-ordinator of operations Andy Selig following the province’s May 22 an-nouncement.

The funding totals are approximate based on initial esti-mates.

The projects include oil tank replacement and roof re-pairs at Dr. JC Wickwire, major roof repairs at Chester Area Middle School, oil tank and boiler replacement at West Northfield Elementary, and oil tank replacement along with flooring and exterior walkway repairs at Hebbville Academy.

Mr. Selig said the work is expected to be completed over the summer.

Last year, the Department of Education announced it was planning to increase its capital repairs funding by $9 million up to $15 million.

“This year, we have increased the funding for capital repairs to address smaller projects across Nova Scotia that will improve our schools for years to come,” said Education Minister Karen Casey in a release.

“It is important students learn in a well-maintained, safe and healthy environment, and these projects will ensure just that.”

Eligible projects include roof repairs, window replace-ments, gym improvements, paving, upgrades to a skilled trades classroom and creating community resource spaces.

Body ided as missing Lunenburg native


LUNENBURG — A body discovered in the Saskatchewan River has been positively identified as a Lunenburg man who disappeared in Saskatoon last winter.

Saskatoon Police said Gregory “Myles” MacIntosh, 28, was reported missing February 2 after his fiancée alerted them that he had not returned home and could not be located by his friends.

During their initial investigation, officers learned that Mr. MacIntosh had been asked to leave a bar, where he and his companions were celebrating his upcoming wedding, after there was some kind of disturbance.

That was around midnight and about a half-hour later police received a report that an individual had been seen walking on the ice on the east side of the South Saskatch-ewan River.

Witnesses said they saw a figure fall into the water and, based on stature of that person, believed it to be a male.

A subsequent search of the area carried out by police, the Saskatoon Fire Department river rescue team and a heli-copter was unsuccessful. However, the following day police searching the river’s edge found blood evidence on the ice which was later identified as coming from Mr. MacIntosh.

A posting on a Facebook site called “Bring Myles Home” stated May 19 that police advised the family that the remains were found in the Saskatchewan River near Melfort and they were awaiting DNA testing and an autopsy to confirm its identity.

An autopsy was conducted on May 20 and it a positive identification was made through that process.

Melfort is located over 160 kilometres from Saskatoon.

Our Health Centre groupbegins new campaign

Donations being sought through June 7By STACEY [email protected]

CHESTER — A key phase of Chester’s Our Health Centre plan is under way in earnest.

“The citizens of the Municipality of the District of Chester, the Hubbard’s area and the Tancook Islands are being asked to improve the health and wellness situation in their communi-ties by stepping forward to financially support Our Health Centre (OHC),” said a release from the non-profit group an-nouncing its neighbourhood campaign.

“By making a donation to OHC, citi-zens are investing in a healthier future for themselves and their families.”

The neighbourhood campaign runs through June 7 and is designed to reach out to everyone who lives in the region to answer questions, accept donations and encourage people to volunteer.

The campaign, to date, has commit-ments for approximately 40 per cent of the project’s total cost.

“In community campaigns such as this, the rate of pledges honoured has proven to be very high,” said the group’s site.

OHC is expected to be similar to col-laborative care centres in more than 35 other communities in Nova Scotia. The facility is expected to offer new services to the area, make evening and weekend medical care available, and attract new physicians.

“Although OHC has received enquiries from more than 16 doctors, no doctors can make a commitment without a firm opening date for OHC. However, it is clear that attracting highly trained, enthusias-tic medical staff could well be the easiest part of creating OHC,” said the website.

“A doctor and a nurse practitioner cur-rently working in the region have already indicated that they want to move into OHC. Most doctors in the area will likely stay in their present set-ups. These exist-ing doctors will have the added assurance

of knowing that, when they are not available to meet their patient’s needs, OHC will be ready to attend to those patients.”

The site is located off Highway 3 near Shoreham Village.

2014 CITIZEN APPOINTMENTSTO COUNCIL COMMITTEES

South Shore Healthgets new CEO

Valley president assumes new roleBy STACEY [email protected]

COUNTY — The chief executive officer of An-napolis Valley Health has assumed leadership of South Shore Health as well.

“We’re on a journey that is going to end up in a change,” said Janet Knox, after being introduced as joint CEO and president during a May 22 meeting in Bridgewater.

“And my perspective is we really want to make sure the good work that’s happening at the commu-nity level in Nova Scotia contributes to good work continuing to happen.”

Her predecessor, Dr. Peter Vaughn, was recently appointed as deputy minister for the Department of Health, which is planning to amalgamate its 10 dis-

tricts into two health authori-ties and four regional manage-ment zones by April 1, 2015.

“There’s a lot of stress and strain in the organization be-cause it’s hard to live with im-

pending change and not knowing what that means,” said Ms Knox.

“We’ll do what we can to prepare the whole west-ern zone to be … what the community needs.”

Ms Knox is expected to serve in her current role until the provincial transition is complete.

“Janet’s leadership at Annapolis Valley Health over the past 10 years has tremendously impacted the direction we’ve been able to take, with great focus on helping our residents be healthy and stay healthy,” said Annapolis Valley Health Board Chair-woman Betty Mattson in a release.

“This opportunity to collaborate with South Shore Health will continue to strengthen our relationship as we move into the new iteration of our health system.”

South Shore board chairman Wayne Foster agreed the move would strengthen collaboration between the South Shore and Valley.

“We thank Peter for his leadership at South Shore Health during his eight years with the district and look forward to working with Janet as we move ahead.”

Province pledges fundsto women’s programs

Community Services announces cash for Harbour House, Second Story Women’s Centre


COUNTY — The province is commit-ting close to $32,000 toward Lunenburg County facilities that largely offer sup-port services and programs for women escaping abusive situations.

Bridgewater’s Harbour House, an emergency shelter and counselling ser-vice that assists women and children seeking safety from violence, is among the transition houses each receiving $16,454 from the province. The home’s programs include teen outreach to high schools, public education, support groups and a 24-hour support line.

More information can be found at http://harbourhousebw.com on the in-ternet.

The Second Story Women’s Centre in Lunenburg is among similar entities in the province each getting $15,238. That’s information welcomed by Yolanda Pitch-er, a single mom, whom, the province said, valued the support offered by Sec-ond Story.

“The women at Second Story Women’s Centre have been able to help me in all av-enues of my life — relationships, bound-

aries and self-esteem. Most importantly, they have taught me how to love myself,” she said in a statement released by the Department of Community Services.

“Second Story has had a huge impact on my life. Because they helped me on my journey, my growth has helped my family grow.”

Second Story is into anti-violence ad-vocacy, including the Be the Peace aware-ness project. They also provide financial counselling and participate in addiction services outreach, among other program-ming.

More information about the organiza-tion can be found at http://www.secstory.com on the internet.

Women’s centres provide information, advocacy and other support services and programs designed to, the province said, improve the well-being and economic sta-tus of women and adolescent girls.

Harbour House, under the South Shore Transition House Association, and Sec-ond Story are registered charities.

The province announced $500,000 in additional funding to centres and transi-tion houses in a statement released May 21.

Belinda Josephson, school counsel-lor at Bridgewater Elementary School, has recently been elected to the Ca-nadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA) School Counsellors Chapter.

School counsellor elected to national association

Belinda Josephson first president from South Shore


BRIDGEWATER — A school counsellor on the South Shore has become the first from the area to be elected as president of the School Counsel-lors Chapter of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association (CCPA).

Belinda Josephson has been a school counsellor at Bridgewater Elemen-tary for seven years and has been elected for the 2014-16 term.

“I’ve been involved with the organization because I feel it’s a really valuable professional organization and I’m honoured to have become the president,” says Ms Josephson, who has been involved with the CCPA for 20 years.

The organization brings together Ca-nadian counsellors across Canada and around the world to look at professional development, research and work within universities. The CCPA has 6,000 mem-bers, with an executive representing school counsellors across the country.

“It’s a great opportunity to network with people from around the world about school counselling and looking at mental health in our schools, particularly for young people. I see mental health equal-ing physical health. Just like we need to see doctors, we need to see counsellors sometimes,” she says.

She was elected to be the member at large of the CCPA about six years ago and became vice-president two years ago.

Throughout her 30-year career with the school board, Ms Josephson has worked as a teacher, administrator and school counsellor at both the junior-senior level and elementary.

She says the organization is aiming to create a framework that all provinces can use for school counselling.

Ms Josephson says one of the biggest changes she has noticed over the years is more focus being placed on supporting mental health at a young age.

“When I first came to elementary guid-ance, there weren’t a lot of programs for the elementary level, but in the last seven years a lot of people around the world are writing programs for elementary guid-ance counselling,” says Ms Josephson.

“We’ve become more aware that men-tal health issues don’t start in Grade 7. We need to problem-solve and decision-make as soon as we walk into the school,” she says.

One in five people in Canada experi-ence a mental health problem or illness, she explains.

“Therefore, every child and youth is entitled to timely access to a qualified school guidance counsellor in Canada. Early intervention is key. Access to ser-vices by qualified professionals is para-mount,” she says.

Part of the CCPA’s goals is to make sure that schools across the country have well-trained school counsellors that are accessible to students.

The organization will soon celebrate its 50th anniversary and will be proclaim-ing National School Counselling Week next February.

“The evolution of how counselling has improved and what we know about men-tal health and the needs of people has grown so much. It’s just really an honour to be part of such an organization that really focuses in on the needs of school counsellors.”

“It’s a great opportunity to network with people from around the world about school counselling and

looking at mental health in our schools, particularly for

young people.”Belinda JosephsonBridgewater Elementary

Feds extend financial helping hand to Mahone Bay helping

hands programBy KEITH [email protected]

MAHONE BAY — Ottawa’s extending a $54,000 financial helping hand to ex-pand a “helping hands” seniors’ program being tested in Mahone Bay.

The Employment and Social Develop-ment Canada funding destined for Ma-hone Bay Centre helps pay for the local organization’s ability to bring its Seniors Helping Seniors program to more com-munities in Lunenburg and Queens coun-ties. South Shore Health — $25,000 — and the Mahone Bay Centre — $2,000 — are also chipping in money toward broaden-ing the program.

“Seniors Helping Seniors was started in the Mahone Bay area in 2009 because it has one of the highest proportions of se-niors in Canada. In the past year, Seniors Helping Seniors has increased its activity significantly because of referrals from South Shore Health’s care coordination team,” read a statement released by the office of South Shore-St. Margaret’s MP Gerald Keddy.

Mr. Keddy announced the federal por-tion of funding, via the New Horizons for Seniors Program, during a May 20 news conference.

The statement went on to read: “Expe-rience with Seniors Helping Seniors has shown that referrals for help in the home or driving to medical appointments and shopping sometimes lead to opportuni-ties to help address the problems of social

isolation and loneliness, and results in re-warding experiences and new friendships for both volunteers and those needing a helping hand.”

Seniors Helping Seniors assists in ad-dressing gaps, supporters say.

“Traditionally, it has been the younger generation who have helped their par-ents and grandparents stay in their own homes,” Ted Hobson of the Mahone Bay Centre Society, the seniors’ project direc-tor, is quoted as saying in the statement. “Many local younger people leave for jobs elsewhere, and the increasing number of retirees who have moved to the area do not have younger family with them.”

Mahone Bay Centre volunteers can help meet needs that the formal care sys-tem can’t, said health services director Wendy McVeigh of South Shore Health.

“We have found that the program helps address one of the gaps in the spectrum of services needed to ensure the safety and well-being of seniors in our commu-nity,” she said in the statement. “Such a volunteer program would be of benefit to our clients elsewhere in the district, which is why we are committing [money] to the pilot project.”

The project has demonstrated that vol-unteers can rally for seniors with run-ning errands and household help, noted Mr. Keddy, adding it’s an “innovative part-nership between the volunteer sector and the official health care system to help meet the growing challenges of our aging population.”

South Shore-St. Marga-ret’s MP Gerald Keddy refers to Seniors Helping Seniors as an “innovative partnership between the volunteer sector and the official health care system to help meet the growing challenges of our aging population.”

Community thankful for United Way

Meeting gives chance for people to tell their stories

By REBECCA [email protected]

BRIDGEWATER – The United Way of Lunenburg County has raised over $1.2 million in the 11 years it has been active.

This year, $169,684 has been invested in 26 local programs.Last week, the group had their community impact meeting.“All of our board members come to the table every single

month, ready to discuss the issues faced by our community and ready to look for real answers to some of those issues,” said Tabitha Webber, the board chair.

The United Way donated money to local causes such as Big Brothers Big Sisters, Fox Point Community Centre and the Adult Learning Network.

In addition to cheque presentations, the event included stories from community members which reflected how these groups help people in Lunenburg County.

Annette Katib was one of those who spoke.“Where I come from, we’re not allowed to learn, to go to

school,” said Ms Katib.She talked of her experience with the Adult Learning Net-

work. Ms Katib said she was reluctant to join the program at first, because she had tried and failed to learn before.

“English is my second language,” said Ms Katib. “I had a tough time learning to read and write it.”

With the help of her volunteer tutor, Barb Proux, Ms Katib was able to learn reading, writing and even basic math.

“I used to count on my fingers, my toes – honestly.”

Ms Katib said she has since written her own mem-oir and is currently work-ing on a cookbook. She ex-pressed her thanks to the Adult Learning Network and encouraged people not to be afraid to get educated, no matter how late in life.

Another community member who spoke was Lori Rhodeniz-er, with the help of Sandra Murray, executive director of South Shore Big Brothers Big Sisters.

“This is the hardest step — when a mom comes in and basi-cally says, ‘I’d like some help,’” said Ms Murray.

Ms Rhodenizer had to fight back tears when she talked about the impact Big Brothers Big Sisters has had on herself and her two daughters over the past five years.

When Ms Rhodenizer’s daughter, Maddy, was diagnosed with a learning disability, she didn’t have the financial resources to help her.

“I couldn’t provide her an iPad so she could read or commu-nicate,” said Ms Rhodenizer. “Big Brothers Big Sisters helped provide that [through] their contacts, so she can listen to books and she can read.”

Next year, Maddy will be attending Park View Education Centre.

Maddy and Cierra both have “Big Sisters” and have taken part in a variety of Big Brothers Big Sisters’ community pro-grams.

“It gave them an opportunity to make them feel like they mat-tered,” said Ms Rhodenizer. “It’s taught [my daughters] so much and I love this program.” she said.

She also thanked the group for helping connect her with re-sources when she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis.

“English is my second language. I had a tough

time learning to read and write it.”

Kiss it goodbyeFormer Kissing Bridge School demolished


FIRST PENINSULA — The former Kissing Bridge School is no more.

The building, which was located at 171 Kissing Bridge Road, was purchased by the province back in 2011 for $69,000.

At the time, the Department of Trans-portation issued a tender call for demoli-tion of the structure, which last housed Kissing Bridge Market Place.

A department spokesperson said the building was partially located on a right-of-way at the intersection of two roads under provincial jurisdiction which cre-ated a sight-distance issue for drivers that raised concerns for safety.

The tender call in July 2011 saw four respondents bid on the job, but the pro-cess was later put on hold after then MLA Pam Birdsall received public concerns regarding the proposal.

In October of that year, the govern-ment decided to take a look at the fea-sibility of relocating the building and plans were made to engage a consultant to study the matter.

Last week, a spokesperson for MLA Suzanne Lohnes-Croft said the building was ultimately put on the market for $25,000 with the stipulation that it had to be moved.

No offers came forward and the struc-ture was demolished.


The former Kissing Bridge School, which was last used as a gift shop, was torn down in mid-May after attempts by the government to sell the building for $25,000 failed.

Fore!Aspotogan Ridge Golf Course back on stream


MILL COVE — The idea of a multimil-lion-dollar golf course and residential development that was first floated nearly seven years ago may finally be getting completely off the ground.

Aspotogan Development Ltd. broke ground on the 18-hole championship course which is located in Mill Cove in the summer of 2008 and predicted at the time that the facility would be open within two years.

Three holes were built by July of that year and, despite a downturn in the econ-omy, company president Barry Publi-cover predicted that the first nine holes would be sanded and seeded by the fol-lowing spring, and that the entire 18-hole course would be up and running by 2011.

That did not take place and the devel-opment was mothballed.

On May 14, the company announced, via its website, that the course, as well as the “lifestyle community” that comes with it, is back in business.

The company said financing is now in place for the full 18 holes plus the clubhouse and that heavy equipment will begin construction once the roads open.

“Our grow-in will take place in June, July and August, and we hope to open for rounds in the spring of 2105,” the website stated.

A public hearing was held on May 12 to discuss an application by the devel-oper to have the boundary of Mill Cove Park, which is zoned as rural residential, include two additional parcels of land — currently designated and zoned as gen-eral basic — in order to accommodate the construction of a commercial golf course by right.

On May 15, council discussed the re-quest and senior planner Bill DeGrace explained that the changes involve map amendments only and no text amend-ments are being proposed.

He said the change also includes a 15-metre setback provision to protect water courses which is already a part of the Mill Cove Park rural residential zoning regulations.

Council unanimously approved the re-quest.

Chester to look at boundariesBy ROBERT [email protected]

CHESTER — How many is too many? How many is not enough?

Those are questions Chester council will be pondering in the coming weeks as they take a look at the reasonableness and fairness of the number and bound-aries of polling districts, as well as the number of councillors representing vot-ers in the municipality.

In a recent memorandum, CAO Erin Beaudin told council that under Section 369 of the Municipal Government Act, councils of every municipality in Nova Scotia are required to apply to the Util-ity and Review Board [UARB] in 2014 to confirm or to alter the number of boundaries of polling districts and the number of councillors.

She recommended a two-step process be followed in completing the review, with the first seeing council determine what they feel the ideal number of coun-cillors would be, then going through a public consultation process on those

findings.The second step is determination of

polling districts and boundaries, and Ms Beaudin indicated that public consulta-tion should also be solicited through that process.

“It is suggested that staff prepare a report on several options for municipal polling districts based on the number of councillors chosen,” she wrote. “This will be presented to council in late July. Once presented, council will identify their ideal polling district scenario and the public consultation plan will be for-mulated.”

While public consultation is consid-ered an essential aspect of the review, the process does not require engaging a consultant or a third party.

Ms Beaudin said that maintaining the status quo is an option, but if the number of councillors is changed the boundaries would have to be changed as well.

The application to the UARB must be filed by December.

Celebrity dinner raises thousands for LumberjacksEddie Shack, Steve Armitage headline event


The CIBC Wood Gundy Lumberjacks held a celebri-ty dinner and auction at the Bridgewater Best Western Plus Hotel and Convention Centre May 23.

Celebrity guests included former NHLer Eddie Shack, CBC Sports broadcaster Steve Armitage and budding Para-lympian Ryan Shay.

Thousands of dollars were raised in the auction for the team, with a Sidney Crosby game-worn Olympic jersey going for $1,200 at the end of the night.

Mr. Shay, who is from Yar-mouth, played for the South Shore Mustangs major midget team and he delivered an emo-tional speech about the car accident, in January 2013, that left him quadriplegic, his re-covery and the track he is on to compete in the 2016 Para-lympic games in Rio de Ja-neiro.

Steve Armitage, who cur-rently resides in Lunenburg County, told the crowd about his experience covering the Olympic Games in Sochi this past winter and gave some words of encouragement for the Lumberjacks’ support-ers.

“Your being here tonight indicates that you like ju-nior hockey and you support the Lumberjacks. It’s so important because these teams don’t operate on a dime

…. That’s why your attendance tonight and your support of games throughout the season is so important to Ken Petrie and the Lumberjacks organization,” he said in his speech.

After speaking at the dinner last year, Mr. Armit-age was asked to come and talk about his experience

in Sochi, to which he gladly obliged.

Mr. Armitage spoke highly of speedskater Gilmore Junio who gave up his spot in the 1,000-metre race to teammate Denny Morrison, who went on to win a silver medal, and the exhilarating women’s gold medal hockey game that the Canadian team won in over-time.

An event like this dinner is an important way to give the team exposure and support in the community, he said.

“This is a way of the com-munity showing that kind of support. They’re not going to raise a gazillion dollars from doing this, but every little bit helps. To run a junior hockey team in this country, no matter where you are, is an expensive endeavour and not a lot of guys make money in junior hockey.

“Every penny helps and this is just one way of supporting the team. The best way is to go out and buy a season ticket or game ticket and show your support for the team that way.”

Eddie Shack had the crowd laughing as he told stories of his time in the NHL in the 1960s and 1970s, and his work as a spokesman for various

commercial products.“I enjoy it and it’s for a good cause. They’ve got good

people here. It’s a great place … everybody seems to be happy and that’s the important thing. Everybody seems to have enjoyed the night and they had a few laughs.”

River Pub Alers spring to top of league standingsThe Bridgewater River Pub Alers

moved into first place in the Bridgewa-ter and Area Mixed Softball League on the strength of a Jonathan Hiltz walk-off home run May 23.

The Alers twice knocked off the Charlie’s Pizza Longshots (1-3) to move to 6-0 on the season, good for 12 points. Elsewhere, Northfield moved into sec-ond place (5-1) thanks to two victories over the Misfits (0-6).

The BMI Freaks (3-3) moved back to the .500 mark with a pair of wins over Orange Crush (4-2), while Oickle’s En-viro Depot also moved to 3-3 with two wins over Bridgewater Insurance (0-6).

In Mahone Bay, O’Regan’s Subaru Outlaws improved to 1-2-1 with a win and a tie against the Bushwacker Ren-egades (2-3-1).

Parsons Construction (4-0) enjoyed a bye week.

On May 30, a full slate of games will likely result in more movement across the league standings.

In Mahone Bay, the BMI Freaks will try to build on their two-game win-ning streak against the Bushwacker Renegades.

At LaHave Street Field, Charlie’s Pizza will look to get back on track against Parsons Construction.

At the MARC in Dayspring, on Field 1, O’Regan’s will host Northfield in a battle of two strong teams. On Field 2, Bridgewater Insurance and the Misfits will both be looking to chalk up their first wins of the year. And, on Field 3, the River Pub Alers and Oickle’s Enviro Depot will collide.

Girls soccer team clean up Fox Point beach


The South Shore United U14 girls soccer team has given back to the com-munity.

On May 19, the team came together to clean up Fox Point beach.

The beach cleanup was not only to get the girls experienced in “paying it forward,” but it also served as a “thank you” to the community. South Shore community members have been helping the team raise money for their trip to Quebec in July.

“We just went around the beach and picked up all the garbage we saw,” said McKenzie Kelly, one of the players.

She added that the best part of the cleanup was finding a military flare on the beach.

Tari Mansfield, the team manager,

said they wanted to travel in order to give the girls the opportunity to play against teams they otherwise could not.

“Back in October, the parents got together. Everyone was in agreement,” said Ms Mansfield, “so we just made the decision to do a lot of fundraising.”

The girls sold wreaths at Christmas and held a tournament at HB Studios. Their most successful fundraiser was a night of card games at the Hubbards Lions Club. Ms Mansfield said that the hall was “packed” despite the storm that had been raging outside.

“We just felt that we needed to do something for that community,” said Ms Mansfield.

Ms Mansfield said there are plans to take the girls on three trips during the summer. They just completed their New Brunswick trip, and will also be travel-ling to PEI before going to Quebec.

Author captures prestigious award


A Lunenburg author has captured the prestigious De-mocracy 250 2014 Atlantic Book Award for Historical Writing.

Gerald Hallowell was one of 11 authors honoured by the Atlantic Book Awards Society during a ceremony held May 21 at the Prince Edward Island Convention Centre in Char-lottetown.

Mr. Hallowell won the award for his book “The Au-gust Gales: The Tragic Loss of Fishing Schooners in the North Atlantic, 1926 and 1827,” which was released through Nimbus Publishing late last fall.

The story recalls the sum-mers of 1926 and 1927 when tumultuous storms known as the August Gales struck the North Atlantic fishing grounds, claiming no less than a half-dozen Lunenburg schooners and dozens of area fishermen.

In a November 2013 inter-view with this newspaper, Mr. Hallowell said that when he started out on the project he was thinking the result of his work would be “a simple little book about the six schooners that went down from Lunen-burg,” but it soon evolved into much, much more.

“There were two in 1926 with 50 men lost,” he said. “[That] came as a great shock to the people of town because nothing like this had hap-pened for about 40 years. Lo and behold, the next year four schooners went down and al-

together that 1927 storm was much worse, was much, much bigger.”

The four vessels lost that year sank off Sable Island and that, he said, is the heart of the story.

“It didn’t affect Lunenburg so much as it did the peo-ple out in the smaller com-munities like Blue Rocks and Stonehurst and Indian Point and places like that where the fishermen came from,” he re-called. “They suffered very badly, especially Blue Rocks.”

During his research, Mr. Hallowell discovered that eight small schooners also were lost off the coast of New-foundland with the loss of about 40 men, “so Newfound-landers suffered very badly because a lot of them were on Lunenburg boats, as well.

“They lost 60 or so people in that storm, so I broadened it to include a chapter on New-foundland,” he said. “Then I discovered there was a fifth boat that went down off Sable Island and that was the Co-lumbia out of Gloucester, so I thought, well, I’ll have a chap-ter on Gloucester.”

That section of the book leans heavily on the connec-tion between that Massachu-setts port, Newfoundland and Lunenburg.

The Democracy 250 Award for Historical Writing was created by the Atlantic Book Awards Society and comes with a $2,000 annual prize “for an outstanding work of non-fiction that promotes aware-ness of, and appreciation for, an aspect of the history of the Atlantic Provinces.”

Lunenburg author Gerald Hallowell has been named the winner of the prestigious Democracy 250 2014 Atlantic Book Award for Historical Writing.

Home at lastStolen artifacts return to

Parkdale-Maplewood museum after 12 yearsBy REBECCA [email protected]

Donna Arenburg, curator of the Parkdale-Ma-plewood Community Museum, said they never thought they would see the stolen items again.

“We’re really happy to have them back,” said Ms Arenburg. “Usually, when something is stolen, you don’t get it back.”

Five artifacts were stolen from the museum in June 2002. There are two that Ms Arenburg is par-ticularly happy to have back.

“I think our gunpowder pouch,” she said. “That and our lamp.”

While they are not sure exactly when or where the items are from, they are both part of the mu-seum’s collection of most unique items. One is a small brown pouch with a dog carved into the ma-terial – when shaken, the powder can still be heard inside. The other is a tall, glass oil lamp.

The remaining artifacts included a nutmeg grinder, a lemon squeezer and a piece from a horse’s bridle.

“Every item has its own significance, because

someone has donated it,” said Ms Arenburg.John Mark Tillman of Fall River was convicted

of the theft in September 2013. He had been hoard-ing over 1,600 pieces in his home, which he had sto-len from a wide range of places in the Maritimes.

He is currently serving eight years less seven days – nine years minus his time in custody during the trial – in a federal institution.

Since 2002, steps have been taken to ensure noth-ing else will be stolen. In addition to security cam-eras which have been installed in the back room, museum staff are more wary of the visitors.

“We are more keen on following people and keep-ing an eye on things,” Ms Arenburg explained.

She added that renovations have made the space more open, so staff can see more of the museum’s displays from the front desk.

Ms Arenburg had pictures of where the artifacts were displayed in the thief ’s house, which she said was furnished with other antiques.

“Some of this stuff was amazing – that he could even get it,” said Ms Arenburg. “He had a suit of armour.”

Suzanne Isaacs, mu-seum assistant, and Donna Arenburg, museum curator, are relieved the muse-um’s artifacts have been returned.

Danny Hennigar of the Chester Municipal Heritage Society shows off a portion of the Oak Island display which was de-signed by Vivian Bell Zinck.


The Oak Island exhibit which is on display at the Chester Train Station is open to the public for its fourth season.

“Back in 2001, the Oak Island Tourism Society decided to try and get a tourism project set up on Oak Island,” explains

spokesperson Danny Henni-gar. “So, for the next nine years, we collected documents, pho-tographs, a few artifacts, the his-tory, what have you. The inter-est stayed there, but unfortunate-ly the project

wasn’t going to happen.”When the idea of an interpretation centre actually on

the island failed to materialize, it was decided to shut down the society and go in a different direction.

“We approached the Chester Munici-pal Heritage Society with the idea of creating a display at the train station and they were in agreement.”

Mr. Hennigar, who is now a member of that society, says an exhibit was con-structed and has gained a very positive response from visitors since it opened in 2011.

“People have always been super inter-ested in this story. It’s in our backyard and it’s a story that is known around the world,” he says. “It’s well worth coming in to see because we cover the entire 200 year history of Oak Island in one tiny room. And we have some lovely original artifacts that you can’t see anywhere else.”

St. John’s celebrates patronal feastHistoric St. John’s Anglican Church is Lunenburg

celebrates the Patronal Feast of St. John on June 8 with a number of events.

The morning will feature a 10:30 a.m. choral eu-charist with organ, choir, brass ensemble and hand-bells, with Archdeacon Michael Mitchell preaching.

At 4 p.m., a special traditional choral evensong will feature the choir of St. George’s Anglican Round Church in Halifax, along with their organist and choir director, Garth MacPhee.

Guest preacher at the evensong is the Rev. Canon James Purchase, the priest in charge at St. George’s. The service will be followed by a community barbe-cue and the wider community is invited to partici-pate in both the evensong and barbecue.

St. John’s, Lunenburg, and St. George’s, Halifax, have several unique historic links.

The congregation of the round church began at the much smaller Little Dutch (Deutsch) Church, located just a few blocks away at the corner of Bruns-wick and Gerrish streets.

German Lutherans, who were among the found-ing members of Halifax, many of whom came to set-tle in Lunenburg in 1753, gathered there to worship.

They were served by clergy from St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Halifax, founded in 1749, including the Rev. Jean Baptiste Moreau, who, in 1752, became

the spiritual leader of the group which was being consolidated before transfer to Lunenburg in 1753. The organization of St. John’s parish, therefore, began before the actual founding of the town in 1753.

These “Foreign Protestants” used a house they had acquired after trading lumber and converted it into a one-room church, known as a “saalkirche.”

Construction on the pioneer church began in 1756 and was finished in 1758. The steeple and belfry were later added in 1760. Services were originally held in German, preached by both clergy and laypersons, and were of an evangelical Lutheran bent, despite the church falling under the supervision of St. Paul’s Church in Halifax.

Another bond linking St. John’s and St. George’s is that they have both experienced serious fires, St. George’s in 1994 and St. John’s in 2001. Both congre-gations restored their buildings with much faith and determination, and with the financial and moral support of the wider community.

Today, both churches are considered to be of unique architectural value and they are Canadian National Historic Sites.

Exhibition celebrates former school“100 Years: A Living Legacy” launching June 4

The history of the old Mahone Bay school will be celebrated and on display during the launch of “100 Years: A Living Legacy” exhibition.

The event will take place at the Mahone Bay Centre starting June 4 and will include a series of events celebrating the 100th anniversary of the old school, which first opened in 1914.

The exhibition will feature “Music: The First 100 Years,” a concert performed by the Bayview Com-munity School Band and the Mahone Bay Legion Swing Band.

Historic photographs, commentary, artifacts and memorabilia have been compiled as part of the exhibition. It will also include three permanent photographic panels capturing the history of the last 100 years and displayed in the old school’s the main hallway.

The exhibition committee used archives from the Mahone Bay Settlers Museum and will feature

exhibits such as “Memorable Teachers of the Old School,” “Going to school in 1914” and “Glimpses of the Old School.”

A commemorative quilt by the Mahone Bay Quilters Guild will also be presented. More than 40 guild members created the quilt, which is made up of 24 ABC blocks.

Some of the depictions on the quilt include themes such as the building of the structure, its years as a school and its current role as a commu-nity centre.

The exhibition starts on June 4 at 6 p.m. on the main floor of the Mahone Bay Centre. It will in-clude a wine and cheese reception until 7 p.m. and then “Music: The First Hundred Years” beginning at 7:30 p.m. Admission to the event is by donation.

hone Nursing Home in Mahone Bay.Patricia Rhinelander is celebrating her 25th year as a sum-

mer resident of the Lunenburg area, presently living in Stone-hurst. Her winters are spent in Gloucester, Massachusetts, the sister city of Lunenburg, and historic racing partner from schooners to present day dories.

Living near the sea and observing life along its shores, has inspired works in watercolour, pastel, acrylic and oil. The play of light, shadow and reflections has been the subject of many works. A fishing industry in decline has prompted efforts to extol the beauty of the locale and the historic character of the region.

Her work has been exhibited at the Best Coast Coffee Gallery in Broad Cove and last year marked her first major exhibition at the Lunenburg Art Gallery. Her work is in collections in Lunenburg, Vancouver, Calgary, New York, New Jersey, Texas, Maryland and other locations in the United States and Canada.

Thin, crisp spears are more flavourful than fat ones.

Time for asparagusIt’s time to start thinking about aspar-

agus. Roasted, steamed or sautéed, it works well with just about any meal.

Cooked asparagus is delicious cold as well as hot, Try either tossed with pasta and herbs for an easy meal.

When selecting your asparagus, choose thin, firm stems with closed tips. If allowed to grow too fat, asparagus will be tough and woody. Cut or snap off the tough ends of the asparagus stalks be-fore cooking. Save the ends for vegetable stock or turn them into compost and re-turn them to the garden. To freeze, trim asparagus spears, blanch thin spears for two minutes or thick ones for four, and pack in an airtight freezer bag.Asparagus Tofu Curry

‘Kit Bag’ tells stories in soldiers’ own words

Rev. Ron Mosley commemorates veterans’ experiences in new book


BRIDGEWATER – At 94 years old, Rev. Ron Mosley is publishing a book which will commemorate the stories of war veterans, mostly from World War II.

It’s titled “Kit Bag,” mirroring the name of a newspaper column Rev. Mos-ley used to write.

“Back in the 1970s and 1980s, I was branch public relations chair here at the Legion,” said Rev. Mosley. “I wrote a weekly column in the Bulletin called ‘Kit Bag.’”

The book and column share the name with the bags the Canadian soldiers carried.

Rev. Mosley is a World War II vet-eran himself. His column was made up of interviews he conducted with other veterans.

“I used a tape recorder, which was high tech in those days,” said Rev. Mos-ley.

He continued to write for newspapers for 30 years. After “Kit Bag,” he wrote a column called “Consider This.”

“I’ve written pretty close to 2,000 col-umns,” he said.

It wasn’t until 2008 that Rev. Mosley began to worry the veterans’ stories would be forgotten.

“I went before the Legion and I said, ‘Look – I’m concerned. I don’t want those stories lost,’” he recalled. “Be-

cause, within those people, there was almost a miniature United Nations.”

Those people include Clyde Getson, who served on a Canadian oil tanker which was captured by a disguised Ger-man raider.

“He was a prisoner of war for four years,” said Rev. Mosley.

Another, Olaf Hegan, served in the Norwegian merchant navy.

“[He] was torpedoed twice,” said Rev. Mosley. “He loved Nova Scotia so much that he stayed here and raised a family.”

Out of the 12 veterans to be included in the book, nine of them have since passed away. Rev. Mosley said he couldn’t possibly pick a favourite interview.

“I wouldn’t dare tell you that,” he said. “I got to be friends with all these people.”

In addition to the newspaper inter-views, “Kit Bag” will include the story of Pierre Allaine, who was only about 13 when the Nazis invaded France. It will also include Rev. Mosley’s story of his time on active duty as a United States army chaplain with an infantry regi-ment, and later in a general hospital in England and the U.S.

The book launch will take place on June 7 at Legion Branch #24 in Bridge-water. The launch will go from 2 to 4 p.m.

“Marvelous people, and I got them all on tape,” said Rev. Mosley.

Eight steps to having a dream gardenCreating the garden of your dreams means either

calling on the services of a landscape professional or diving headfirst into the project yourself.

Of course, landscaping a yard requires a great deal of time, but it is definitely a great opportunity to let your imagination run wild. Before you get down to work, here is a list of all the necessary steps to follow to turn your dream into reality.

Planning is vital — Use your survey or certificate of location to check the site for any easements. Take note of hours of full and partial sunshine, undesirable views, which corners to highlight and which to hide. Find out about current municipal regulations concerning land-scaping. Have your soil analyzed, locate the areas that are exposed to wind and determine your hardiness zone.

Identify your needs — How will you use the space? Do you want to install a pool or a spa? Do you need space for a children’s playground? Would you like to create a water garden or a dining area? Hang a hammock or plant a vegetable garden? Think carefully about all your needs.

Make a plan — Using a pencil, eraser and graph paper, draw a scaled plan of your property. Include the

house, shed, pathways, driveway, and any trees and shrubs you want to keep. Then add all the elements of your new layout, taking into account the vegetation and structures you wish to include. Don’t be afraid to sketch out a variety of plans; it’s easier to make changes on paper than it is once the work has started.

Choose your plants with care — Before buying any-thing, take the time to make a list of all the plants you have chosen, including the hours of sunshine they need and the care they require. Be sure to consider the size of the vegetation once it has reached maturity — this is es-pecially important if you want to plant trees and shrubs.

Spread out the work — Spread the work out over more than a year so that your project doesn’t develop into a source of stress. Give priority to the jobs that require qualified workers and any machinery — pool, water garden, parking area. Establish a realistic time-table that takes your budget and your time availability into consideration.

Consult the experts — Landscaping is an invest-ment that could increase the value of your property. Don’t hesitate to consult an expert if you have any ques-tions. It is better to spend a few dollars straight away

rather than have to redo already completed work.

Stay in control — From the moment your garden starts to take shape, you will have to start maintaining it. No-maintenance gardens are a bit of a myth. Weeding, watering and pruning can take either a few minutes every day or a few hours once a week — so, don’t wait for the work to pile up. Learn to delegate; fam-ily members can contrib-ute to yard upkeep, and gardeners can be hired for weeding and for bigger seasonal jobs.

Enjoy it — The last rule is definitely the best — have fun! Make the most of your dream yard and enjoy your favourite pas-times there. You deserve it.

Simplifying gardeningNow that the warm weather has ar-

rived, are you feeling the urge to do some yard work and create new flower-beds, just like so many other gardening fans?

Sometimes this enthusiasm lasts throughout the growing season, but sometimes it wanes as summer pro-gresses.

Indeed, a lot of gardeners are much less energetic once July or August rolls around, and it isn’t unusual to see some yards looking a touch neglected.Fortunately, it is possible to create beautiful surroundings that require less care.

Here are a few tips.• First of all, be sure to choose plants

that grow well in your area and in your climate zone. A spectacular plant seen in the south may not necessarily give the same results in the north.

• If you buy perennials, opt for slow-

growing varieties. That way, you won’t have to divide the plants every two years. A gardening professional can help you find some good cultivars.

• Be savvy with plant combina-tions. For example, plant tulips aroundhostas. The tulips will appear in the spring, but when their flowers fade, the hosta leaves will hide the yellowing leaves of the tulips. No need to prune them.

• Container gardening is another way to limit yard work. Weeding is done in a few minutes, compared with an hour or more to hoe flowerbeds.

• Mulch is a great way to limit the growth of weeds. It also helps the soil retain its moisture, which means less watering.

• Use quality tools. Just like in the kitchen, a dull, blunt blade can prolong the job at hand.

Compostingis for everyone

Canada has been celebrating Interna-tional Compost Awareness Week each May since 1995.

Both industry and individuals are the targets of this awareness campaign. Composting is an eco-friendly activity within everyone’s reach, whether you live in a downtown apartment, a pretty country house, or even if you own a business. All you have to do is to adapt it to your lifestyle.

Composting consists of recuperating organic waste, which eventually turns into a dark brown soil matter that en-riches gardens. Best of all, it reduces pollution and the amount of garbage going to waste management sites. The composting process takes between three months and three years, depending on the chosen method.

A Canadian household can reduce its yearly garbage production by up to 40 percent simply by composting. All it

takes is a small investment for the pur-chase of a domestic composter, as well as a container for kitchen waste. After that, all you need is your kitchen waste and lawn cuttings.

One of the most persistent myths about composting is that it smells bad. True enough, mixing kitchen waste, leaves and maybe even a few worms in the same container doesn’t seem very appealing. However, it is really just a matter of chemistry. Compost will not smell if the different elements of a good composting recipe are respected.

If you’d like to start composting, your first step should be to learn all about the procedures to follow. Even though this natural fertilizer can be made through-out the year, don’t forget that spring is the best time to start.

Compost will not smell if it is looked after properly.

Keep your gardening simple with a few easy tricks such as using containers which will cut down on weeding.


Going smallTiny shelters offer downsizing options


Some say size matters, others say it doesn’t.

To Jamie Constable and his business partner, Dawn Higgins, however, smaller means better.

A highly regarded local finish carpen-ter, Mr. Constable has joined forces with Ms Higgins on a new and somewhat novel venture, a company they have dubbed Full Moon Tiny Shelters.

“We call them tiny shelters rather than tiny houses because it keeps the building inspectors happy,” Mr. Constable laughs. “But also because they aren’t all houses. The next one we’re going to build is going to be a guest room-office, so we’re trying to build them for people who want to live in them or week-end in them or season in them, and for people who want extra space.”

Mr. Constable says the idea for what are commonly known as “tiny houses” kicked off in the United States several years ago and caught on with the public back in 2008 when the economy went into a nosedive and people started looking to downsize and lessen their debt loads.

“I think the real movement began with alternate ways of living so you’re out of debt and out of that cycle,” he explains.

Despite experiencing at least a partial economic recovery in recent years, that movement not only continued but started to grow, and more and more people are choosing to live their lives in a different manner.

That is the case for Ms Higgins, who along with being a partner is also a cus-tomer, awaiting delivery of the first tiny shelter the company is currently build-ing.

Her new acquisition is being inge-niously designed to provide the comforts of home while at the same time saving space and is also going to be completely off-grid.

“To me, it’s totally about freedom,” says Ms Higgins, who serves as the com-pany’s operations manager after spend-ing 20 years building successful micro businesses with the goals of right liveli-hood, local employment and sustainabil-ity.

She spends her summers in Nova Sco-tia, but little time here in the winter, and is currently searching for the perfect piece of land where she can place the unit

once it is completed.“I don’t really know where I want to

be yet, so the beauty of it is I can move it around until I come up with a place,” she laughs.

Mr. Constable says that, while the orig-inal idea behind tiny houses may have been cost cutting, Full Moon Tiny Shel-ters is turning that concept up a notch.

“We’re trying to add my background to it, which is customization and nice woodwork,” he explains. “We get calls from people who want to live in them. We get calls from people who want them as sum-mer places on the lake and they want something much cooler than a travel trailer.”

Others, he said, are looking what he calls “luxury extra spaces,” they can use as a guest room, yoga room or an office.

Equipped with wheels like a travel-trailer, a tiny shelter can be relocated to any place the owner wishes or can simply be set up in one venue on a permanent basis.

A basic 16’ x 8’ model on a certified trailer — intended as a guest room, of-fice or mobile weekend getaway — starts at around $25,000, a figure which can go up in price depending on the choice of finishes.

A 24’ x 8’ tiny shelter on a certified trailer with full systems, including hot and cold running water, and heating and cooking facilities that one could live in year round in Canada starts at around $50,000.

Units can be equipped with fresh water and grey water holding tanks, or can be plumbed to hook into existing systems.

“We have to be clear that, although some people might choose to live in them year-round, we’re not selling them as year-round residences,” Mr. Constable says.

Ms Higgins says her unit will be “very self-sufficient, but they don’t have to be that way.

“For me, it’s an easy way to live here most of the time,” she says. “I just drain my systems, lock the door and leave in the wintertime.”

Mr. Constable says the company has been swamped with inquiries “and people are asking for things that we didn’t think about.

“So there’s a whole range of possibili-ties,” he says.

“To me it’s totally about freedom.”

Chester Garden Clubcelebrates 75th Anniversary

Group running strong since 1939By REBECCA [email protected]

After 75 years, the Chester Garden Club still hasn’t gone out of style.

Brenda Garland, a past president of the club, has been part of it for about 10 years.

“I moved here from the U.K. and my neighbour three doors down was a garden club member al-ready,” said Ms. Garland.

Without any local fam-ily, Ms. Garland saw it as a chance to make friends.

“The club became my family,” she said.

Sheila Knowlton MacRury, who also took a turn as president, heard about the club 12 years ago.

“Where I had lived [before], there were not many opportunities for gar-dening,” said Ms MacRury. “I thought I’d like to try it.”

Ms MacRury picked a good time to join because, in previous years, people had to be invited in order to take part in the garden club.

“It’s not like that now,” said Ms Gar-land. “We had our regular monthly meeting and people came from as far as Lunenburg for it.”

Nowadays, people can drop by a cou-ple meetings before they commit to join-ing.

The club began as a branch of the Women’s Institute in April of 1939. The women first decided to establish a gar-den on the Parade Grounds.

“It used to be a ball field and then they changed it,” said Ms MacRury. “We [still] maintain it and look after it every year.”

Next, they felt the village dump at the head of the Front Har-bour was an eye-sore. Today, that area is the Cove Garden.

“They changed it from rats to roses,” said Ms Garland.

Even as the men left for war, Ms Garland said the women maintained the work with the

garden club.The club’s current group has kept up

with many of the traditions. On July 24, for example, the club will be hosting its Annual Flower Show and Tea.

“There are specimens, which just means you’ve cut the best example of a rose or a coreopsis or what-ever,” said Ms MacRury. “Then, in the centre of the room, there are all these arrangements.”

However, there have been some changes. For one, the club now has male members, as well

as women. In the beginning, the show was to occupy the women during “race week,” when their husbands would be sailing.

“One of the older members did tell me that, when they used to get together, they would have gin in their tea cups,” said Ms MacRury.

Ms Garland said, while that’s no lon-ger the case, they still maintain the “so-cial” atmosphere during meetings.

Ms MacRury believes the group has lasted so long because it brings differ-ent people together through one mutual interest.

“That’s the bottom line,” she said. “You get people from all different back-grounds, but we all like plants.”

“It’s been in peaks and troughs over the years where it’s been thin in num-bers, then gone high again,” explained Ms. Garland.

As of now, the club has about 60 members. They will be hosting events in honour of their 75th year throughout the summer.

“The club became my family.”Brenda Garland

Better late than neverAfter 20 years, boat finally hits the water


For Walter Flower, you might say it was love at first sight.

Recently, the Lunenburg mariner launched his latest toy, a 26-foot classic cape-style boat with a rather interesting pedigree.

“It’s the last large boat that was built by NSCC in Bridgewater under the di-rection of Nelson Cutler who was the instructor over there,” Mr. Flower recalls. “The hull was finished by them and she was sold after the program to this fellow, Eben Stevens, who had the intention to turn it into a little family cruiser.”

That dream never materialized, but Mr. Stevens, who worked for a time in Mr. Flower’s shop and became his friend, often spoke to him about the project.

“He kept telling me about this boat, but he had never done anything with it,” Mr. Flower says. “He just said, ‘You really ought to come up and have a look at this thing.’ To appease him, I went up to his

place in Hemford and I couldn’t believe my eyes.”

Closed up in a shed and covered with dust and mildew, the hull was something which, at initial glance, didn’t look like much.

“The first thing I thought when I saw it was that she was going to be rotten in her garboard plank and all that, because she’d been sitting in this shed up under the pine trees for so long,” he explains. “I crawled through and looked the hull over and said, ‘Yeah, this is so pretty, I got to have it.’ Anyways we struck a deal.”

Mr. Flower engaged a flatbed truck to bring the hull home and spent last winter applying the finishing touches to bring her to ship-shape condition.

The 20-year-old boat, which is powered by a 105-horsepower Volvo diesel engine, got its first taste of water when it was launched on May 18.

“She’s a sweet looking hull and she goes like crazy. We got better than 18 knots out of her. I was hoping for 10,” Mr. Flower laughs.

Virtual tour aids expectant momsBy REBECCA [email protected]

South Shore Health and South Shore Family Resource Association are intro-ducing the “Having Your Baby at South Shore Health” virtual tour.

The tour was officially introduced with an event at the family resource cen-tre on May 27.

Lori McCracken is the public health leader at South Shore Health. She said they viewed the IWK’s virtual tour, but wanted one that would be tailored to the South Shore community, so she turned to Lighthouse Media Group’s video exper-tise for a local production.

While South Shore Health hosts in-person tours once a month, Ms Cracken said they realize it isn’t a viable option for everyone.

“We know that many families struggle with transportation or availability,” said Ms Cracken.

She explained that the video tour takes

its viewers through a step-by-step pro-cess. It starts with the expectant mother in the home and tells her who she should call when she realizes she is going into labour.

“Then, it drives you right up to the hospital,” said Ms McCracken. “It takes you through all the steps, like how to get registered and admitting, and what floor to go to.”

Ms McCracken said the video will be ideal for pregnant women to watch so they will know what to expect when they come to the hospital.

“How many nurses you would expect, how many times you’re going to be seen by the doctor.”

While Ms McCracken said the video doesn’t go into home births specifically, it talks about how a hospital visit would go after a woman has given birth through the care of a midwife.

The tour also includes details about re-sources for women after they have given birth.

Spring is the perfect time for many things — opening up the camp, planting vegetables in the

garden and taking long walks in the sunshine. It is also the perfect time to visit cemeteries. If the visit is early enough, mosquitoes and blackflies can be avoided. Still, you may need boots to keep your feet dry.

The upside to visiting cemeteries in spring is the lack of green growth. Bare branches, shorter grasses and fewer weeds help visitors locate headstones that might be horizontal in style, fallen over or hidden in overgrowth. Getting to a forgotten or abandoned cemetery is also made easier before plants have had time to grow and fill in narrow paths. Spring is the best time to send out a search party in the hopes of finding a cemetery that is rumoured to be in the area or to find a family graveyard on an old home-stead.

I have visited many cemeteries in the past 30 years. The well-tended ones are easy to explore in any season, but those with lim-ited access or those being consumed by forests are the ones I visit in the spring. After a long winter, it feels good to be outside and doing “field work” instead of only researching in-formation on the internet, at libraries and archives and in books.

Some researchers are not as lucky as I am. All my Canadian ancestors settled in Atlantic Canada, so I have been able to visit the cemeteries in which they were buried. Although time and money has forced me to space out my trips, I understand some researchers — because of limited time, money and physical abilities — simply cannot visit an ancestor’s grave.

That is when the services provided by Canadian Headstones (http://ca-nadianheadstones.com), a non-profit Canadian corporation, step in to help. Their mission is to “capture digital images and the complete transcrip-

tion of headstones” in Canada. They state, “As decades pass, it is becoming harder — if not impossible — to read the inscriptions these stones originally contained.”

To begin a search of their database, click on the province in which the headstone is located. In the top menu bar, choose “Search,” then “Search Headstones” below Browse Our Site. Researchers can search the entire province or individual counties using a complete name or a surname only.

Visitors can also browse all cemeter-ies by clicking “Cemeteries” from the

top menu. The menu bar also includes the link to Ca-nadian Headstones’ blog, so researchers can keep up to date on news and events.

The website also con-tains information on Canadian Armed Forces personnel interred in for-eign countries, the Halifax (Sailors’) Memorial, and Ireland and United States headstone photos.

Genealogists interested in contributing informa-tion or digital images can learn more on how to do

that on the Help and FAQ page. This page also provides tips on how best to photograph a headstone, such as not using a flash. Many headstones made in the past 50 years are reflective, so be careful that you do not capture yourself in the image.

The success of the Canadian Head-stone project lies solely on the shoul-ders of its volunteers and others who contribute photographs and informa-tion to the online archives. Currently, there are more than 860,000 gravestone photographs from across the country available in their database.

The night weather makes all the difference when running an owl monitoring route. Ian Manning

and Gary Selig joined me on the evening of May 13, for the re-run of my route from Rhodes Corner to Whynotts Settle-ment, through to Maitland and up to Sweetland. The moon was full and we could hear sounds from miles away. The sky was clear and conditions were just perfect with no wind at all. This was a major change from the previous time when the winds were 40 to 50 kilometres, it was very dark and only one barred owl was located. In comparison, we had 10 barred owls, three northern saw-whets and five American woodcocks. It was also great to hear American toads trill-ing at most stops.

Many calls and e-mails came in over the past week with the arrival of lots of migrants. I’ll start off with reports of ruby-throated hummingbirds. Joan Arnold of West Dublin had two on May 11. Brenda Hiltz of Gold River one on May 12 and one was at the residence of Janice Kenefick in Riverport on May 13. Mary Walmark of Kingsburg and Mary Brown at East Port Medway each had one on May 16 and one was reported by Tony Cong-don in Kingsburg on May 17.

Quite a number of white-crowned sparrows have shown up around Lunen-burg County. Sylvia Fullerton reported two at Broad Cove, Brenda Hiltz had one at Gold River, Judith Orr one at Union Square and Kevin Lantz one at Front Centre. Kevin also had a gray catbird and a Nashville warbler there. I took a jaunt along a shoreline road at Gar-den Lots and was pleased to see a male common yellowthroat and two yellow warblers. On the same day, Eric Mills re-ported that these two species arrived in numbers on Brier Island.

In Lower LaHave, a Baltimore oriole, two hairy woodpeckers, purple finches, two northern flickers, common grackles, red-winged blackbirds and a male rose-breasted grosbeak have been tending at the feeders of Doreen Gillespie. A male rose-breasted grosbeak also showed up in Back Centre at the residence of Ste-

ven Hiltz and one was in Kingsburg as reported by Tony Congdon. Tony also let me know that red crossbills seem to be in residence there. While walking on Kings-burg Beach, David Walmark noted that a whimbrel had returned. This species has shown up around this time in the same location for the past two or three years. One year, two even stayed for most of the summer, which is odd.

Steve Joudrey had a young male sum-mer tanager at Whynotts Settlement, which stuck around for two days. A pile-ated woodpecker was searching for bugs in the grass under a spruce tree at East Port Medway, as seen by Mary Brown. While passing through the north end of

the Lunenburg-Kings County boundary, Ian Manning was pleased to see an American bittern beside the road. Ju-dith Orr saw three turkey vultures at Union Square.

I was pleased to see a spot-ted sandpiper at Crouses Settlement and I also saw two Wilson’s snipe fly over while there. It was great to listen to two hermit thrushes and also two ovenbirds call-ing. Two lingering common redpolls were seen by Fran-cis Anderson of Crouses Settlement during the Nova

Scotia Migration Count. Hillary Dione reported a sora rail on Big Tancook Is-land and also a snowy owl still tending there. Eric Mills saw a sizable group of common terns around Westhaver Island at the entrance to Mahone Bay Harbour. He also spotted one at the south end of Upper South Cove in First South.

On a walk in Lunenburg, American restarts, black and white warblers and yellow-rumped warblers were some of the birds spotted by David Van rijn. Marilyn Joudrey phoned from Northfield to let me know that Canada geese had returned there. She was also pleased to see an American robin’s nest with three eggs in an ash tree near her house. Mari-lyn put a nest box in a lilac bush nearby, where black-capped chickadees have taken up residence.

PARKDALE-MAPLEWOOD

BY DONNA M. SMITH

Congratulations to Larry and Chris-tine of Sunshine Farm in Maplewood for their entry into the wonderful world of grand-parenting. MacKenzie Grace Aren-burg was born in Bridgewater on March 20 to Nicole Knickle and Jesse Arenburg.

Wendy and Andy Looke of Looke Can-Cut Limited hosted a dinner at Bridge-water Best Western on April 26. Their aim was to thank the contractors and operators of land-clearing equipment who assisted them in their successful completion of the project at South Canoe Wind Farm near New Ross. Operators were presented with a crested hoodie and Maplewood Maple Syrup.

The community lost a great “charac-ter” when Alonzo (Lonnie) Rhodenizer passed away on April 30. Many will re-member him riding his horse, Sally, in the livestock parade at the community fair and directing traffic in his vest and “sheriff ’s badge.” He grew up and lived most of his life on the Rhodenizer farm in Parkdale which was also the site of Rhodenizer’s store. It was operated by his mother Ethel who wrote this column for many years.

The community museum opened on May 1 with Donna Arenburg as curator. The Welcome Back Potluck and Auction took place the following Saturday at the community hall. There was great food and the auction, conducted by Barbara Rhodenizer, was fun monetarily success-ful.

Congratulations to Pastor Sam and Connie Jess who welcomed Tabitha An-astasia (Tabi-Ann) to their family on May 5. She joins big brother Silas at the manse in Barss Corner. Connie’s mother, Joanne Adsett of Keswick Ridge, NB, has been on hand helping out recently. Also staying at the manse is Connie’s sister, Esther Ad-sett, who is doing a dietitian placement in Mill Village.

Eric Ross of High Landing in Parkdale passed away in Kentville on May 19. The funeral was held at Emmanuel Baptist Church in Parkdale with the reception at the community hall on May 24.

Sympathies are also extended to the family of Gladys (Max) Russell of New Germany.

Our neighbours in Union Square are planning some events soon. Their famous plant sale is coming May 31 from 9:30 a.m. to noon. It is a fundraiser for St Paul’s Anglican Church. Mary Simms Morey is having a sale of her older art work — drawings, sketches and paintings — on June 7 with half the proceeds going to the hall. A penny auction is planned to raise money for the hall on June 14.

The monthly meeting of the museum society was held May 20. Curator Donna Arenburg reported that she and her new assistant, Suzanne Isaacs, attended the spring meeting of the South West Cu-rators Association at the DesBrisay in Bridgewater on April 25. She also re-ported that the items stolen in 2002 which turned up in the famous “raid” in Halifax were returned by the RCMP. The painting by Marion Banks being raffled this sea-son is now on display in the museum and tickets are available. Weekly draw tickets are still for sale from June to September. The front garden bench has been re-paired by Paul Smith. Treasurer Wendy Looke reported that memberships are coming in response to our April mail-out, many with extra donations and orders for draw tickets.

EAST DALHOUSIE

BY JUDI HILTZ

As usual, I am a week behind in my news, but better late than never. Last week’s card party winners were as fol-lows: ladies’ first – Debbie Sanford; sec-ond – Shirley Weightman; men’s first – Alton Spidel; second – Ray Leslie; half take – Ann Scott; traveller – Debbie San-ford; door prize – Sadie Griffith.

This week’s winners were: ladies’ first — Lucille Keddy; second – Jean MacKay; men’s first – Bob Dykens; second – Gary Tippert; half take — Debbie Sanford; trav-eller – Gary Tippert; door prize – Bob Dykens.

Audrey Fancy and Ann Scott had a fishing trip to their favourite spot and they caught some pretty nice looking trout.

On Saturday, Lee Hiltz and I went to the BMO Centre in Bedford to attend the hockey games that our grandson, Colin, plays in. The first game was a blow-out for the other team, but the second game was a tie and a much better game.

We had a very successful ticket auction for the IWK on May 10. We raised more than $753 dollars. Thank you so much to everyone who came and worked in the days leading up to this day and the day of, and everyone who came and supported with buying tickets.

Belated Happy Mother’s Day to all you wonderful mothers out there. For this day, I went to Bridgewater with Sherry and Mark Selvidge and Audrey Fancy and John Gaul. We went to see my daughter, Natasha Snyder, and my grandchildren. From there, we went to Hebbville for an ice cream sundae. It was good. As Colin had hockey practice in Liverpool, they had to go home to get ready. The rest of us drove to Rissers Beach to walk around on this beautiful, sunny day and have a picnic lunch.

On Monday, I got called to make a trip to Lower Branch to take care of Rebecca Snyder, our granddaughter who was not feeling well. The week before there was something going around at her school and, since she wasn’t feeling well, Nata-sha decided to keep her home.

A group of us attended a Little Sock Tea to raise money for the two little churches in the Forties. It was a small group but every little bit helps. It was a fun afternoon with lots of good food and friends. Not necessarily in that order.

Chester businessmantalks economy, education

and health care


CHESTER — The province’s economy, education and health care systems, in addition to Highway 103, were on John Risley’s radar as the Chester resident and established businessman hashed out his views concerning what makes Nova Sco-tia tick.

Whether it be a view-point adjustment when it comes to embracing newcomers or rethink-ing how Nova Scotians look at road work, Mr. Risley echoed senti-ments contained in the Ivany Commission’s re-port on the province’s economy by planting an idea of changing how things are approached.

He advised commu-nities to take the blind-ers off in the face to the province’s $15 bil-lion debt.

“If we are ever going to manage our debt, it’s going to be on the back of a growing economy so that we stop adding our debt,” he said dur-ing a recent speech to an annual meet-ing of Chester-St. Margaret’s Progressive Conservatives.

“We need economic activity. We need responsible development. We need to think through things as a community and decide whether or not, when we’re going to be against something, are we tak-ing a reasonable and reasoned approach, if you like, to our objections. Have we thought this through? Is there a way this can happen on a responsible safe basis?”

The province needs a targeted immi-gration policy but it’s up to communities to make newcomers feel welcome, Mr. Risley said, suggesting there’s currently “a terrible attitude as a province toward immigration.”

On the subject of health services, he suggested there has to be a level of com-promise at a time when health-care costs are chewing up close to half of the prov-ince’s budget.

“It’s just not good enough to sit back on the outside and bitch and complain about the quality of health care. What we have

to do is accept that change is necessary and that, frankly, any change is worth pursuing ….”

The sector could be better managed, he added, with measurable costs of specific medical procedures in hospitals factored into budgets. It’s “crazy” that govern-ment’s largely the provider of health

care, he said, noting introducing a level of competition in the system couldn’t hurt.

When it comes to Highway 103, the main expressway through the South Shore, Mr. Risley broached a user-pay system, an investment that could pay dividends for road safety between Upper Tantallon and Wind-sor Road.

“Just a dollar a day toll on that road would pay for the twinning of the road from Exit 5 to Exit 8,” he told the audience.

Get braced for an impact on spending if the population trends continue to display migration from rural areas to already bulg-

ing urban centres.“The consequence of this is that, very

unfortunately, rural services are going to decline,” Mr. Risley explained. “They have to decline because the government can’t possibly afford to maintain the same quantity and quality of local ser-vices while replacing those services in the Halifax/Dartmouth area without the benefit of new revenue.”

One of Mr. Risley’s final points, men-tioned in the question-and-answer por-tion of his address, zeroed in on edu-cation. He qualified his comments by saying he’s not anti-union but questioned the teachers’ union’s influence, which he claimed is incorrectly trying to take authority over of courses of study.

“They’re not responsible for the cur-riculum. They are responsible for teach-ing the curriculum,” he said.

“We have got to take back control of the school system from the teachers union.” That statement was met with applause.

Taking actionClimate Change Project completes

successful first yearBy ROBERT [email protected]

LUNENBURG — Members of Lunenburg-based Coastal Action are taking steps when it comes to helping protect the environ-ment in Lunenburg County.

Recently, Danielle St. Louis, coordinator of waste management for Coastal Action, brought town council up to date on the prog-ress of one of the the group’s initiatives, the “Taking Action on Climate Change Project,” which began last spring.

“One of the first projects that we tackled over the year was the Lunenburg Board of Trade Campground,” Ms St. Louis ex-plained. “We first did a waste audit there and we found that there were some improvements to be made.”

That audit, which was carried out with the assistance of Kirk Symonds of Region 6 Solid Waste Management and Tammy Har-nish of the Kaizer Meadow Environmental Management Centre, involved erecting new signs at the facility’s sorting stations, re-painting bins and a giving a waste sorting presentation to staff.

“We also developed an educational handout … which was handed out to campers who visited the area just so they know where to place their waste,” she said.

A second initiative involved a composting at home program, again with the assistance of Mr. Symonds, where local residents, businesses and community groups were provided with the tools and the knowledge to start their own backyard or worm compost-ing stations.

One group who responded positively was the Lunenburg Gar-den Club. About 20 members of that group attended a workshop on the subject and the club was set up with its own worm com-posting bin.

“This has a very great potential to target businesses, other community groups and residents,” Ms St. Louis said. “It costs a lot and uses a lot of resources to transport compost and this is one way, I think, would be very helpful, just teaching people about backyard composting.”

Composting bins were set up outside Coastal Action’s Lunen-burg office as demonstration sites and a number of workshops were also presented on the art of composting.

Public education on waste management was carried out through booths set up at various farmers’ markets in the area and plans are to have those sessions continued into the future.

“We have also been involved with Bluenose Academy, which is conveniently located right across from our office,” Ms St. Louis said. “We started a vegetable garden with them. This is one way we can teach students how to use the backyard compost at our office so we can show them how that is value-added and how it is really great for gardens and things like that, and they can also reap the benefits from what they grow.”

She said the project has set up six worm composting bins at the Academy which have been tended by the Grade 5 students.

“It’s been really successful,” she said. “We’ll be using that on the garden as well this summer.”

Off the subject of composting, the project has been actively promoting the Blue W Network which is nationwide movement started in 2009 that sees businesses and other organizations offer people an opportunity to refill their water bottles with tap water free of charge.

To date, 11 businesses have signed up within the Town of Lunenburg and plans are in the works to contact others in the area later this spring.

“I’ve developed a registration form so I can bring that to them and they can fill it out and I can go online and register them,” she said. “For the Blue W to be successful, it’s great if everybody in the community knows about it and you can walk into pretty much any store and fill up your water bottle. It makes it really convenient for people.”

Ms St. Louis said the next step for the project is to target repeat and problem offenders who are not properly sorting their waste and try to educate them on the correct procedures. “And also in-crease the number of public sorting stations,” she added.

GOING TO THE DOGSThe Maritime Motor-cycle Touring Associa-tion (MMTA) held its annual Pet Food Run for SHAID Tree Animal Shelter May 24 which saw more than 90 bikes travel between Mahone Bay, Lunen-burg and Bridgewater before ending up in Whynotts Settlement.

Saskatchewan policing bureaucrat promotes alternative ways to tackle

community needsBridgewater seminar hears from former officer


BRIDGEWATER — Ex-cop and current Saskatch-ewan Corrections and Policing Deputy Minister, Dale McFee, gave his take on tackling community needs by involving more than just law enforcement.

Mr. McFee was a guest speaker during a re-cent justice-themed seminar in Bridgewater on the subject of restorative practices. He’s promoting a unique style for policing and community health and safety. With 26 years of policing experience under his belt, he’s advocating that community stakehold-ers help point out potentially high-risk situations and band together to make systems work better.

“Canada has one of the best systems going, it’s just that we’ve thrown everything into it and expect it to be the be-all, end-all for everything,” he told the seminar, “and the reality is, if we just do a bit of a re-tool or re-think, we can actually change the way the business is being done.”

Police agencies in Lunenburg County find them-selves called upon to solve traditionally non-po-licing issues such as alcohol use among youth, prescription drug abuse and mental health mat-ters. Law enforcement commonly gets summoned to a “crisis” involving these issues because police are one of few around-the-clock agencies readily available, suggested Bridgewater Police Chief John Collyer.

“This has put great strain on police resources, not just here but across Canada,” the chief told the Lunenburg County Progress Bulletin and south-shorenow.ca in response to Mr. McFee’s presenta-tion.

“As he indicated, the majority of Canadians feel the police are responsible for community safety,” Chief Collyer explained.

“The reality is many of the things we are called upon to deal with are outside our expertise. Com-munity safety is everyone’s responsibility — health, community services, education — all must play their part.”

Mr. McFee said some keys are early intervention and accountability right out of the gate.

“It’s time to start putting the value for money into the equation because there’s extreme value in what you do, but what we don’t do is measure that and then, most importantly, we don’t show people what that value is.”

Chief Collyer said talking in terms of oppor-tunity and investment as well as net public value makes a lot of sense in re-framing the discussion about community safety.

Mr. McFee implied that there’s no way for po-lice departments to arrest their way out of their troubles.

“Folks, there’s people that should go to jail and they need to be in jail, but what this is about is jail-ing the people that we’re afraid of and not the ones that we’re mad at and how do we bring the people out of the system that actually we can have better value to the client, to the individual and to then to the community and ultimately the taxpayer.”

Bridgewater Police’s challenge, for example, will be developing tools to provide data-driven response in the future, Chief Collyer added.

“This is a capacity we must improve upon if we are to get people the help they need when they need it … as Dale said, we cannot arrest our way to a

safer community.”A Lunenburg County women and chil-

dren’s shelter and counselling service hosted the two-day workshop. Mr. McFee was the first day’s speaker.

Rural artists thinking big

Kiln Art sends products all over the world

Story & photos by LEENA [email protected]

Down Lacey Mines Road in Chester Basin is a studio that’s home to Kiln Art. It’s where hand-crafted, fused-glass dinnerware, ornaments, home

accents and accessories are produced and then shipped to customers all over the world.

It’s only fitting that the company evolved its dinner-ware products after co-owners Sharon McNamara and Paul Palango found themselves with one too many dining room tables.

“In our divorces, we both got the dining room table,” says Mr. Palango, a former journalist and author.

The two had already started their glass art store called Chez Glass Lass, which is currently on Duke Street in Chester.

“Only one dining room table fits, so we put the other one in the store. I said to Sharon, ‘Look at this nice table, why don’t you make sets of dishes for it?’” says Mr. Palango.

“She says, ‘Well I’m a one-of-a-kind artist,’” he explains. “Make one-of-a-kind sets,” suggested Mr. Palango.

And that she did.“It was an accidental business,” says Ms McNamara,

who is a self-taught glass artist.She made four plates for the table and the two expected

that customers would come in and most likely buy just one, but the first person that came in bought all four.

The business, which incorporated back in November 2000, has produced work that has travelled to Europe, Asia, the U.S., across Canada and to other parts of the world. Taking part in craft shows outside of the coun-try has allowed the company to establish more connections.

“We do a show in Philadel-phia. It’s the largest hand-made show in North America,” says Ms McNamara.

Ms McNamara, who has worked with glass art for 25 years, originally had her own stained-glass business in Guelph, Ontario. She took a workshop in Las Vegas on glass fusing and eventually purchased her own kiln, which allowed her to create glass picture frames. From there, she purchased more kilns after a sales rep ordered 900 frames for a trade show.

“I was actually the first person in Canada to buy these kilns, so they made me the Canadian distributor and so I just started playing with it. There wasn’t much known about it when I started doing it,” says Ms McNamara.

But before the store, the dining room tables and the din-nerware that evolved afterwards, is the interesting story of how Ms McNamara and Mr. Palango first met.

Both originally from Ontario, the two came in contact after an article Mr. Palango wrote for Maclean’s magazine in 1997, called “Danger Signs.” The article stemmed from

the murder of a 14-year-old Reena Virk, who was beaten by a group of seven girls and one boy, under a bridge in British Columbia. His article focused on “the psychol-ogy of potentially criminally-minded female teenagers, to help their parents understand what they might be facing,” writes Mr. Palango in his article for Arabella magazine, where Kiln Art has also been featured.

He goes on to write that Ms McNamara read the ar-ticle and contacted him for help, since, at the time, she and her husband were having issues with one of their children. Mr. Palango and Ms McNamara eventually met and worked together on some of the problems, and even-

tually her child graduated from university.“We met through the murder of someone we didn’t know,” says Mr. Palango.

Eventually, the couple moved to Nova Scotia and Kiln Art took off. Before the business produced dinnerware, part of the challenge of sell-ing art was that “there’s not a lot of space left on walls

in the world for new stuff,” says Mr. Palango.

“People have things up there that they cherish — memories of trips, their family, decorating pieces,” he says.

So they decided to move the art off the wall and onto the table.

“By doing that, we wanted to move away from selling one piece at a time and try to get people to buy more than one piece at a time,” says Mr. Palango.

Kiln Art uses coloured glass frit — crushed stained glass — as one would use paint.

“The technique we use, you don’t see

anyone in the world using,” says Mr Palango. He suggest-ed the approach to Ms McNamara, who saw the possibili-ties, and the two experimented with different techniques. The glass fusing process takes about three days, but the company has about 25 kilns which helps speed up the process. The company

also employs about nine people and gets its raw materials from the U.S.

“We try to make quality things that appeal to a wide range of people,” says

Mr. Palango.The company also

produces custom-made work, and everything they make is signed

by the artist. “We listen to what people want and then we

try to make what they’ll want,” says Mr. Palango.

“That’s what we did and that’s what we’re good at. You can get just about anything you want,” adds Ms McNamara.RURAL

Mashup Labs launch on the South Shore

Initiative hopes to amplify start-up community


MAHONE BAY — An initiative being launched on the South Shore wants to help people turn their business ideas into a reality.

Mashup Lab is a mentorship program and series of events aimed at activating the start-up community in rural markets in Atlantic Canada, starting with the South Shore.

“It will create a growing network to plug into for people all along the South Shore that have an interest in building a business around solutions to prob-lems they see in the world,” says project founder, Andrew Button, also CEO of the South Shore Business Growth Association.

Mashup Lab will in-clude lightning talks, where founders and entrepreneurs, with businesses at various stages of progress, tell the stories of how they got started.

“Some of them have just launched their companies, some have just secured invest-ments from provin-cial capital investors, some have got through the whole process and have sold their com-pany and have moved on to the next proj-ect,” says Mr. Button.

The Mashup Lab would also be a place where aspiring entrepreneurs can bring their ideas and get direct feedback from experienced entrepreneurs, offering peer-to-peer mentorship.

Mashup Lab’s eight-week mentorship program called “Morning Espresso,” will focus on individual companies.

“We build a small team of mentors around that entrepreneur to help them take an idea and actually bring it to mar-ket,” says Mr. Button.

Just over a year ago, he was selected as one of the 21 emerging leaders in Nova Scotia and met many people who were starting and growing their own compa-nies.

“I noticed that most of the activity was happening in our urban centres. The rural parts of Atlantic Canada weren’t as connected to that energy and I started to think of how can we sort of bring some of that activity that’s happening in that start-up space to a rural market,” says

Mr. Button.“It’s an activity where somebody sees

a problem and tries to figure out how to build a business around a solution to that problem,” he says.

On May 22, Mashup Lab launched at the Mahone Bay Centre with the first lightning talk from Blair Ryan, CEO and founder of The Rounds. The company provides a exclusive online network for physicians across the country.

Mr. Ryan, of Halifax, came up with the idea after realizing the barriers and chal-lenges physicians had in communicating via technology.

“The only two ways [physicians] are allowed to communicate are by telephone

and fax machine,” he explained.

The Rounds helped address the challenges by essentially provid-ing a Facebook for doc-tors, connecting more than 2,000 registered physicians.

“The main differ-ence is The Rounds is physicians only, it’s exclusive, it’s secure. We’ve built it so that it’s compliant with all the privacy laws and regulations,” he ex-plains.

“Instead of sending pictures of your family or your breakfast, they’re send-ing pictures of their patients, or their sending x-rays, or their sending their research,” says Mr. Ryan.

Mr. Button says the plan is to have more presentations from entrepreneurs like Mr. Ryan over the coming months.

“He saw a problem and came up with a solution and built a great team of people around developing that solution,” says Mr. Button.

Mr. Button hopes the project will help begin a dialogue and raise the profile around start-up activity in rural parts of Atlantic Canada.

“I hope through that we begin to in-spire other people in our community to take action,” he says, adding the initia-tive could also inspire those who may not even realize they’re entrepreneurs yet.

The next Mashup Lab lightning talk will be from Gillian McCrea, founder of GetGifted, on June 26 at The HUB South Shore in Mahone Bay.

Lunenburg restaurant makes Best in Canada list


LUNENBURG — An award-winning Lunenburg eating establishment has re-ceived yet another accolade.

For the second straight year, Fleur de Sel has cracked the Top 50 list of Canadian restaurants as compiled by Vaycay.ca.

This year, Fleur de Sel, which placed 21st in 2013, rose four notches to 17th and is one of just two eateries in Nova Scotia to make the list.

In addition, it is the only restaurant in the country not located in a major city to crack the top 20.

“Traditional French cuisine meets

Nova Scotia’s finest in Chef Martin Ruiz Salvador’s intimate seasonal res-taurant,” said Kathy Jollimore of EatH-alifax.ca. “It’s classic yet innovative, a picture perfect display of Nova Scotia’s culinary landscape.”

Chef Ross Munro of PEI Culinary Adventures said that Chef Salvador “has to be the most underrated chef in our country… period.

“Beating to his own drum, he uses ingredients wisely and without hesita-tion. Bold or subtle, he hits the mark.”

Vaycay.ca is billed on its website as the leading source of Canadian travel. It provides information about the best places to see, sleep and eat in Canada.

Workplace health and safety tour coming here

BRIDGEWATER — An initiative promoting health and safety in the workplace is launching across the province.

Safety Services Nova Scotia, the Canadian Red Cross, and workplace safety and respect expert Paul Kells have partnered to present the “Respect Matters Tour.”

The tour includes sessions with business owners, supervisors, manag-ers and joint occupational health and safety committee members, and will be coming to Bridgewater on May 30.

“There is a higher risk of injury,

both mental and physical, when people are exposed to inappropriate behaviours and other risks but are reluctant to say anything about them,” Mr. Kells says in a press release.

“Often, they make a choice to be a bystander because they perceive a power imbalance between themselves and their co-workers or supervisors. Managers, su-pervisors and peers need to understand and recognize these imbalances in order to reduce the risk of injury from distrac-tion and unreported risks,” he said.

In 1994, Mr. Kells lost his son to a work-place explosion and, since then, has been committed to building safer workplaces, reducing risk and saving lives.

Private sessions can also be arranged for businesses or organizations interest-ed in having more employees take part.

CameronLeeVeinotteVeinotte, Cameron Lee – Newburne, February 22, 1967 to August 30, 2013 It is with heavy hearts and deep sadness we announce the sudden passing of Cameron Lee, on August 30, 2013, at the South Shore Regional Hospital. Unfortunately, it was a battle with a quick growing cancer that Cameron just could not fight. Through the shock and the pain, Cameron stayed strong and brave and remained very loving to his family and friends, never wanting to be a burden or have them worry.

Cameron was the son of Gloria (Lohnes) and the late Harry Veinotte. Besides his mother, Cameron is also survived by his stepfather, Geoffrey Ritcey; sisters, Marlene (Darren) Veinot, Maplewood; Darlene (Lawrence) Getson, Necombville; Kim (Terry Arenburg) Veinotte, Northwest; and only brother, Byron (Cynthia) Veinotte, Newburne; nieces, Brandi-Lee, Chantel (Smook), Danika; and great-niece, Camryn; nephews, Darren, Brad Allen, Matt, Colton, Mikey, Cody; and great-nephew, Kayden. Once in a while we meet someone special whom always knows how to make us feel good and understands as few people do; a person, whom is glad for us when things go well and there to listen when we have something to share. Once in a while we find someone we can depend on. For us, the family, that someone was Cameron. Cameron was not just a son, brother, uncle, Godfather, brother-in-law and friend, but was a one in a million kind of guy. So loving and kind, he reached out and touched the souls of all who knew him. As a member of our family he made us proud, as a friend they felt honoured. The first impression that you may have gotten with his size and long hair was intimidating, but as you got to know him, you found out he was like Geoffs’ mom called him, “a big ole teddy bear”. Cameron was a quiet man who kept to him-self, but was always there when anyone needed him. Cameron didn’t enjoy the rich life, but enjoyed the plain and simple things. An avid Habs fan, he loved the Canadians, that his brother said was his only fault! Cameron would stop in and visit with his mom every day before going to work and have his snacks. He spent time walking through the woods, visiting family and friends, texting Chantel, and spending his Saturday afternoons and Sundays watching TV shows with Geoff. For those who knew Cameron, they knew he had a passion for investing money, watching the stocks and reading Money Sense. It was a necessity for retirement at first, but then became his favourite hobby. He also enjoyed shopping at Princess Auto where he would buy those “just in case tools”, he knew he would never use them but would buy them just in case someone else would. Most peo-ple would never know his favourite show was Coronation Street, he loved the British accent. He loved fishing, hunting and raising cattle as a child and had his horse, Bullet. Cameron spent about 28 years at High Liner Foods where he worked and met many people he called his friends. He spent a lot of time with his best friend, Bruce, whom was just like a brother. Most of all Cameron loved his family and was very proud of his nieces and nephews. Now our family chain is broken and memories are all we have, our lives will defi-nitely be different and sometimes even lonely. He will be out of sight, and hugs and kisses and simple hellos will no longer be, but Cameron didn’t like goodbyes and would want his family and friends to be happy. As Cameron had a soft spot in his heart for all kids; donations in his memory were made to the IWK or the Children’s Wish Foundation. The song “Thank You” was played for him from his nieces and nephews. Thank you to the nurses at the SSRH for all you did for Cameron, especially Tracey!

HEBB: In loving memory of Mom and Dad, Ruth and Stewart.The moment that you died Our hearts were torn in two,One side filled with heartacheThe other died with you.We often lie awake at nightWhen the world is fast asleep,And take a walk down memory laneWith tears upon our cheeks.Remembering you both is easyWe do it every day,But missing you is a heartacheThat never goes away. Always loved and sadly missed by your children.

MOORE: In loving memory of Paulette Lynn Moore.It’s been two years todaySince you passed away,We miss you more than words can sayIn our hearts you will always stay,Loved and remembered every day. Loving you always, for- getting you never. Lovingly missed, Harold and family.

Always loved and missed by sons, Cedric and Derek; and daugher- in-law, Lorraine.

SAVOURY: In memory of Watson Savoury, who passed away May 26, 2007.In our home I often standTrying hard to understand,The tears I wipe awayBut the pain in my heart is there to stay.Others were taken, yes I knowBut you were mine and I loved you so.I have lost my sole com- panionA life linked with my own,And day by day I miss you moreAs I walk through life alone.Not a day do I forget youIn my heart you’re always there,For I love and miss you dearlyAs it ends another year. Love you honey, wife Melinda.

Reaching out to faith lapsedBy KEITH [email protected]

MAHONE BAY — Organizers pray the public will believe in a casual gathering tailored to guide the faith-lapsed or let-down toward peace, hope and spirit.

The May 30 session at the Maple Street baptist church in Mahone Bay gets start-ed at 7 p.m.

“It’s not going to be an evening of preaching,”cautioned Karen Brown, who’s promoting the meeting. “It’s going to be an evening of just building a rela-tionship.”

Planners want to reach out to those who examine devotion differently, won-der what happens in church or, perhaps, question the relevancy.

A teen once queried Ms Brown about beliefs and church function, which prompted her to move ahead with estab-lishing a relaxed, information exchange environment.

“I talked to different people and I thought how many people wonder the

same thing,” she said, referring to ques-tions concerning what’s settled or ac-cepted when it comes to church.

This week’s session is non-denomina-tional and free to attend. Refreshments and musical entertainment will be part of what Ms Brown described as a coffee-house style experience.

“We are going out on a limb because we don’t know if two people will show up, 200 or 20,” Ms Brown said. “I’m not taking it personally if we don’t have a big attendance because I feel, if we make a difference in one person’s life, it will have been worthwhile.”

She hopes the one meeting translates into once a month sessions with individu-als taking ownership of the venture and proceeding with the conversation.

“I think there is a desire to be part of a causal non-structured community where both unchurched and churched people meet to love and help each other.”


BAPTIST CHURCH WORK SITECrews tackle work on the future site of a new $5 million Bridgewater Baptist Church. The 18-square-metre Glen Allan Drive building will go up near the Drumlin Hills apart-ment complex. Proponents hope the new church will open by Easter 2015.

CW BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Sunday, June 1, 2014Showcase

Despite common predictions that “Beauty and the Beast” wouldn’t survive past its sec-ond season, CW announced on May 8 that a renewal is, in fact, in the cards. While the show doesn’t exactly rake in the big num-bers, it obviously gets enough love to squeak by for another season. The romantic drama returns to Canadian television on Showcase after a three-month hiatus Sunday, June 1, for season 2’s final six episodes.
