The Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA) has closed the trail from now until October 25th. By agreement with the Woodland Trail's landowner partners, this trail is closed during deer and turkey hunting seasons because of the danger to hikers. No hunting is permitted on the Sawmill and Heritage Trails and they will remain open all year. In the spring of 2010, residents and visitors may notice an abundance of Narcissus sprouting from the ground as the Bayfield and Area Horticultural Society (BANS) has received a generous donation of these bulbs and are planning to plant them around the village on the Heritage Trail and at the entrance to the Sawmill Trail. Everyone in the village is invited to join members of the BRVTA and members of the BAHS in a Narcissi planting work party. The two groups will meet at 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 16, at the entrance to the Sawmill Trail. Those who join in the planting are asked to bring a shovel. On that date the BAHS members will organize planting teams so that this project shouldn't take long if there are enough volunteers. Bill Makins, trail development director said, "This is a great example of how two volunteer groups can work together to make Bayfield a better place."

(Submitted photo) Prior to the Bannockburn Fall Hike, on Oct. 4, a dedication ceremony was held to honor the Smiths for their donation of land. According to Tom Prout, general manager of the Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA), the Goderich couple is helping create a greener watershed future with their gracious donation. "Their donation will preserve this green space for future generations and expand recreational opportunities for people who want to enjoy this natural destination," he said. The donated parcel of land is adjoining the existing Bannockburn Conservation Area and is located just west of the river. The additional land will help the ABCA better preserve wildlife habitat and water and soil resources in the area. The preservation of the land will also help work towards the Watershed Report Card's goals of improved forest conditions in the watershed. Bannockburn Conservation Area is located between Bayfield and Brucefield, near Varna, off County Road 3. Several local families have recently left a local legacy through donations of funds and/or lands in ecologically important areas. Land donations are considered as part of the ABCA's Land Securement Plan.

His comment got me to wondering though... Why do we save it for special occasions when it is one of our favorite meals? I think the answer is tradition. Turkey and all the trimmings every Wednesday would be just too overindulgent even for our society. And it would diminish the words... "For what we are about to receive, may we be truly thankful."
