140th
meeting
May 31
Continued from page 1
Goodall seconded that, stating there
will be some small celebrations for
Canada's 150th birthday, which will
be handled by the BIA and the
town's annual fireworks on July 1.
BIA Chair Rick Elliott said that
Blyth Arts and Cultural Initiative
14/19 Inc. is planning on having the
second iteration of its wildly
successful Fare on Four where the
group fed 1,419 people on Blyth's
main street two years ago.
"That was in mid- to late -August,"
Elliott said. "I just got notice that it
was planned, so a date might not be
set but we should be aware of that."
He also said that he was aware that
the Blyth Cowbell Brewing
Company was planning some
celebrations for the event as well.
Elliott went on to say that the
meeting was about building a
framework for what could happen
and that details could be hammered
out later.
"As a group, we have to decide
what we would like to do," he said,
giving suggestions like parades and
dancing.
Cat O'Donnell, a member of the
BIA and co-owner of Wonky Frog
Studios, suggested a fireworks
evening and some kind of
celebration with a birthday cake
while others stated a date should be
considered first.
Some conversation was had about
pairing the celebration of Blyth's
140th founding anniversary with
Blyth Streetfest as well as Canada's
150th birthday which led Stewart to
ask if the celebration was going to
be limited to a single event.
"Are we going to try and do
everything one weekend or are we
going to spread it out over a number
of different celebrations?" he asked.
Elliott said it might be best to
determine which celebrations are
already happening and try to capture
the momentum involved there,
suggesting that the Lions Club's
annual seed sowers barbecue could
be part of the celebration.
After some more discussion, in
which Streetfest was suggested as a
good pairing for the event, Elliott
suggested that he talk to Huron
County Cultural Development
Officer Rick Sickinger who keeps
track of all the events held in the
county. Elliott went on to say that
Sickinger's calendar, which breaks
down which weekends which events
are happening, would help him
come back to the group with a firm
suggestion for when the
celebration(s) could take place
without competing with events in
Wingham, Brussels, Londesborough
or Clinton to make sure there
weren't multiple draws on
attendance.
After that, the group discussed
ideas about how to get visitors and
former residents back to Blyth to
celebrate the occasion including
`passports' that would encourage
people to visit downtown shops and
some of the other events throughout
the year and calendars that would
highlight both the events planned for
Blyth's 140th as well as those in the
surrounding community.
The group decided to meet on
May 31 to further develop plans for
the celebration.
