STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER
Snow and cold are four-letter words to a lot of people but the congregations of the village's four
local churches have joined together to ward off the negativity that winter can bring by offering a
series of stimulating programs plus some fun social interaction.
The third year of the "Take Time in 2011" programs will run from now until Feb. 14. They are a
perfect opportunity for friends and neighbors to learn and share with one another.

"We continue to purchase locally -grown foods throughout the year, but in the winter months,
we purchase about half of the box items from a local grocery store."

Volunteers would be expected to do the following:
respond to questions from drop -ins, sell publications,
plus complete some modest archival activities.
Interested individuals, who can commit to one

The event, to coincide with the Family Day long
weekend, will be held from 3-5 p.m. at the Bayfield

local farmers and suppliers, the local economy and the sustainability of a healthy community.
"As outlined in the County of Huron's 'Take Action' report, the Good Food Box is a great
initiative to support the long-term health of our communities as well as the local economy", said
Huron's Sustainability Consultant, Lindsey Goodchild.
Bayfield and area residents can purchase the Good Food Box at their neighborhood host site,
Trinity Anglican Church by calling Nancy Scotchmer at 519 565-2596. Orders must be placed

Orders for the upcoming month need to be placed by Feb. 4 and are to be picked up Feb. 17 at
Trinity Anglican Church. Participants are asked to bring a bag or a box to take their items home
in.
"There is no obligation to order every month, but we do encourage customers to try boxes over
a two or three month period because box contents vary according to season and availability",
said Fry.

LARONE SHARES CHALLENGES AND TRIUMPHS OF 50 YEARS IN
JOURNALISM WITH HISTORICAL SOCIETY MEMBERS

STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER
Bayfield resident, Ken Larone, an integral part of Canada's journalistic scene during the past 50
years, was the guest speaker at the Bayfield Historical Society Annual Meeting and Luncheon
held on Jan. 24 at St. Andrew's United Church.
Larone began his career in Seaforth helping Dr. James Scott research his book, entitled, "The
Settlement of Huron County'. With some encouragement from Scott and A.Y. McLean, then
owner of the Seaforth newspaper, The Huron Expositor, he decided to pursue a career in
journalism beginning with an education at Ryerson in Toronto.
Following graduation he worked as a reporter at three newspapers, The Stratford Beacon
Herald, The London Free Press and the Vancouver Sun. It was during his time on Canada' west
coast that he was invited by a friend and fellow journalist for a long weekend out in California to
see a new trend in the newspaper business.
One of the papers in his suburban community
group was a Scarborough publication. As the
automobile maker, D.W. Volkswagen, was looking
to start a new plant in Scarborough, Larone was
invited, along with three other journalists, to spend
a week in Wolfsburg, Germany to see how the
factory operated. During the week the company
planned an outing with lunch served at the Berlin
Wall. Everyone had been told not to touch the wall
but one photographer with Paris Match got caught
up in the experience and absentmindedly put his
foot up on the wall. Almost instantly a shot rang
out and the journalist was hit in the head and
killed.
"It was a terrible experience and one that shook
me very badly," recalled Larone.
Another stressful time came at the helm of the
Toronto Star when one of his top reporters was
sent to interview Yasser Arafat and disappeared.
"Earlier that year, I had a young woman of
Palestinian descent interview for a job. I had told
her to try and get a job at the Guelph Mercury or
the Galt Reporter and get to know people at that
level and learn about the country first and then
come back and see me. She had checked in a
couple of times with me to keep me up-to-date of
her progress," he said. "When my reporter went
missing I was very concerned I would never see
him again. Arafat wouldn't return my calls."
So Larone made a phone call to the Galt Reporter
where the young woman, who turned out to be
Arafat's niece, was working
"I asked her to come in and see me and make the
call to her uncle and ask him to let my reporter
go"
The woman required some convincing but she did
eventually come in and make the call, the reporter
came home the next day.
The Toronto Star position wasn't without
excitement. Another story Larone told featured the

SUBMISSIONS
Sitting in a back pew at St. Andrew's United Church on Monday afternoon, I had the great pleasure of hearing Ken Larone
speak about his 50 years in journalism and the remarkable opportunities it afforded him. The stories he shared, in front of the
members of the Bayfield Historical Society attending their annual meeting, were made all the more astonishing perhaps
because he is a Huron County boy at heart.
I, perhaps better than anyone there, could understand the hard work and long hours that would have gone into such a career.
And I appreciated hearing the stories of a time in journalism that I just got a glimpse of at the very start of my own career. A
time before the communication world began revolving at break neck speed.
Melody Falconer -Pounder
When I started at journalism school we were working on electric typewriters and Liquid Paper was a good but messy friend.
Just before graduation they introduced desktop publishing — something the papers I worked for wouldn't achieve for a few years yet. Cut and paste meant
a whole different thing at layout time.
How people get their news may have evolved in the 50 years since Larone began his career, and the 20 years since I began mine, but one thing hasn't
changed. There will always be amazing people accomplishing the extraordinary whose stories need to be heard. And it was my honor to write about one
such individual this week. - Melody
Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
