Ten years ago, Bayfield native and photojournalist, Richard Fitoussi, covered the 25th anniversary of the Khmer Rouge social experiment. He went to visit the Cambodia Landmine Museum that Aki Ra established at his home in 1997. Back in Canada, Fitoussi used his photographs to help tell Aki Ra's story, collected monetary donations and raised awareness for the cause. The result of their partnership is the Cambodia Landmine Museum and Relief Facility that opened to the public in 2007. It is the first licensed and accredited museum of its kind in the world. In addition, Aki Ra works to provide support to children affected by the landmines and poverty with the support of The Cambodian Landmine Museum Fund and Cambodia Self Help Demining.

The decorations plus the natural colors of autumn provided a burst of color on Main Street to lift the spirits of those who passed by. PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER Since the weekend of Sept. 24-26, people may have noticed something unusual about some of the trees in the village's heritage district.

The trunk was wrapped in an apron and dozens of kitchen gadgets festooned its branches.

There were 53 Communitrees entered into the competition across the county. Over 190 individuals voted for their favorite.

The 2010 People's Choice Award for the Best Communitree went to the Alexandra Marine & General Hospital Foundation (AMGHF) for their tree, which was located in The Square in Goderich. Their tree was decorated with replicas of the purple and white "little bra" logo specifically designed for the hospital's Keeping Abreast Digital Mammography Campaign. The "little bra" image, created by local graphic artist Michelle Bauman, represents the importance of breast health for women of all ages. This whimsical Communitree was a graphic reminder to women to be pro -active about breast screening. The AMGHF received a framed fine art canvas print produced from a photograph of their tree valued at $250. The printing and digital reproduction was donated by Elizabeth's Art Gallery in Goderich, and the framing was donated by the Heritage and Culture Partnership.
