TERRY FOX RUN THIS SUNDAY
RALLY FOR GODERICH
On Sept. 17 the people of Bluewater can make a

The village's 3rd Annual Terry Fox Run is set for this Sunday, Sept. 18 and is hosted by the
Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA).
Since the Bayfield run was started in 2009, it has raised over $5,500.
It will be an all-inclusive, non-competitive, family oriented event. The Bayfield run is a BRVTA
initiative and is scheduled to start and end at Clan Gregor Square. Registration will open at
8:30 a.m. with the event to begin at 9:30 a.m.
To be a part of the Terry Fox Run people can choose to walk, run, bike or wheel. In town there
are two routes; the 2 KM route is suited to wheelchairs, strollers or roller blades and the 5 KM
route is perfect for running and walking. Participants up for more of a challenge can choose to
walk or run distances of either seven or 10 KM. These longer distances include the Sawmill
Trail Loop, which travels along the Bayfield River. There is also an in -town 10 KM route for
cyclists.
There is no minimum pledge and donations can be collected through pledges, personal
donations or on-line pledging. Pledge sheets will be available soon.
According to Heidi Hessel, event organizer for the BRVTA, it is important to note that the Terry
Fox Research Institute (TFRI) functions as the research arm of the Terry Fox Foundation,
overseeing the full research investment portfolio. TFRI works with partners such as Canadian
Institutes of Health Research, Canadian Partnership Against Cancer and more than 50 cancer
research hospitals, centers and educational institutions across the country.
It is the Terry Fox Foundation's single mission to fund innovative cancer research. It funds
research in many types of cancers such as lung, ovarian, colorectal, pancreatic, oral, and liver
The Foundation is independent and not associated with the Canadian Cancer Society or any
other cancer fundraising national organization.

established by the Optimist Club of Bayfield just
hours after the tornado struck on Aug. 21.
Club members have placed collection boxes in
prominent locations around the village to accept cash

has been collected thus far.
The money collected will go to the Goderich

and vote on the future of BAHS. We need you to

On Aug. 29, Bayfield Guiding members (1-r): Sydney Pitt, Deb and Dana Wilson, Fiona Brands, Raven Wild and
Melanie Wilson posed for a photograph in front of their tent at the end of Bush Camp at the Toronto Zoo. The
girls and young women of Bayfield Guiding are now looking forward to more adventures together in 2011-12
and new members are welcome to join. (Photo by Melody Falconer -Pounder)
Attention girls and young women of the community, have you ever slept in a tent in the middle
of the Toronto Zoo waking up to the call of a lion at sunrise? Have you ever got your feet wet
cleaning trash out of a stream? Have you ever tried snowshoeing, laid a wreath at the village
cenotaph, or looked at the planets from a powerful telescope?
If you were a member of Bayfield Guiding last year you could answer "yes" to all those
questions. Why not join them this year?
The benefits of being a member of Bayfield Guiding are many — girls enjoy trying a variety of
new skills in a comfortable, relaxed environment. They also learn an appreciation of the world
around them by exploring their own great outdoors as well as taking a virtual look at countries
far, far away. They are instilled with the desire to do service for their community, their
environment and for others across the globe. And perhaps above all they develop confidence
and make lasting friendships all in the name of fun!
The season lasts from mid-September to early June.
Bayfield Guiding has openings for Sparks, aged 5-6 years; Brownies, aged 7-8 years; Guides
aged 9-12 years; Pathfinders, aged 12-15 years; and Rangers, aged 15-17 years. Women
interested in joining as leaders are also welcome to contact the number listed below for more
information.
The groups meet, with the exception of the Pathfinders and Rangers, on Tuesday afternoons
from 5:30-7 p.m. at Trinity Anglican Church, 10 Keith Cres. (doors open at 5:15 p.m.) The
Pathfinders and Rangers will meet twice monthly at the Bayfield Village Inn on alternate
Wednesdays from 6:30-9 p.m.
The first meeting of the year for Sparks, Brownies and Guides will be held at Trinity Church on
Sept. 20. All girls in these age groups are invited to come out and see if Guiding would be of
interest to them. This will be a funky craft night — attendees should wear old clothes and bring
with them a plain dark colored t -shirt, black, navy, dark blue or green work best.
Pathfinders and Rangers will have their first meeting on Sept. 28. And again anyone interested
in joining is welcome to attend to learn more about what being a senior member of Guiding is
all about.
If you would like to reserve a spot for your daughter please phone Melody Falconer -Pounder at
519 565-2443 or email her at bvi@tcc.on.ca.

For many Bayfield residents Clinton Public Hospital (CPH) is their choice for healthcare and
therefore the work of the Auxiliary to the CPH should be of interest.
On Sept. 6, the monthly meetings of the CPH Auxiliary resumed after a busy summer of
members volunteering at the hospital Day Surgery Unit, and the Gift Shop. They could also be
found volunteering at Hot Dog Days, Legends Days and the Walton Motocross.
At the meeting a moment of silence was observed in memory of Dr. Jan Raczycki.
Guest speakers, Jeanette Sears, public education coordinator, and Kirsten Passchier,
community outreach coordinator, both for the Alzheimer Society of Huron County, told those
present about Alzheimer Society's programs for support and education.
It was noted that The Ruby Haddy Award for education in health related fields was presented
to St. Anne's Catholic Secondary School student Natalie Husnik at the school's June
ceremony. A Central Huron Secondary School graduate will also be presented with this award
at their fall ceremony.
The 57th Annual CPH Auxiliary Penny Sale will be held at St. Paul's Anglican Church Parish
Hall in Clinton from Sept.15-24. The sale will be open weekly from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; Fridays,

hospital. They invite all to come out and win a prize!

The first time Todd Baker was a guest at a Clinton Communicators Toastmasters meeting, he
enjoyed himself so much he decided to join the group.
Unlike a lot of new guests, Baker, a resident of Bayfield, had some idea what to expect at a
Toastmasters meeting, since his sister-in-law is already a member. What he didn't expect was
to be invited to speak extemporaneously in the Table Topics portion of the meeting, and he
certainly didn't expect to tie for first place with a seasoned Toastmaster, Gemma -Mendez -

Baker is already fairly comfortable speaking to people, since his work requires him to meet the
public and regularly give presentations. At his first Toastmasters meeting, he quickly realized
that this club was a place where he could hone his skills, to become an even better speaker
and listener.
What also appealed to Baker was the fact that there are Toastmasters Clubs in most cities
throughout the world, so because Baker travels extensively in his job, he can attend meetings
wherever he goes.
For anyone who would like to discover just how much fun public speaking can be, Clinton
Communicators Toastmasters invites them to attend an open house in Bayfield on Sept. 20 at
the Bayfield Lions' Community Building. A second open house will be held in Clinton on Sept.
27 at the OMAFRA building, 100 Don St. Both meetings will begin at 7:30 p.m. Guests may
attend one or both meetings.
Toastmasters International is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping its members
improve their public speaking, communications and leadership skills in a mutually supportive
environment.

"Breastworks" is an art show and silent auction celebrating the female form to be held as part of the Festival of
Art and Fitness in Bayfield. The auction begins on Sept. 30 and concludes Oct. 1. It will be held at the Bayfield
Town Hall. This work to be auctioned is by Madeline Roske of Goderich. (Submitted photos)
Tom Barker, of Goderich, created this work. It is one of several pieces to be auctioned for the "Keeping Abreast'
Campaign to bring a digital mammography unit to Huron County.
Just over a year ago, the residents of Huron
County (HC), having banded together to raise $5
million, gained access to a CT Scanner. In
November of this year, a full -field digital
mammography unit will be operative for the
people of HC in the completely renovated
radiology department at Alexandra Marine and
General Hospital in Goderich.
According to Ray Letheren, acting vice -Chair of
the Alexandra Marine and General Hospital
Foundation (AMGHF), with the addition of this full -
field mammography unit, HC will have among the
best equipped radiology departments of any rural
hospital in Ontario if not Canada. This unit is
better able to detect the minutest growth in a
breast than is the conventional process and will
greatly reduce the risks to people of the county.
The Keeping Abreast Campaign of the AMGHF
has raised $350,000 of the required $550,000 for
this unit through the generosity of businesses,
service clubs, individuals, municipalities and
community groups.
The citizens of Bayfield are committed to
supporting the Keeping Abreast Campaign. On
Sept. 30 and Oct. 1 with the generosity of 10
financial sponsors, 70 volunteers and the support
of 24 groups, the village will hold the Festival of
Fitness and Art in Bayfield (FFAB).
The FFAB is comprised of two parts as suggested
in the name. 'Breastworks" is the banner name for
a silent auction to be held on the night of Sept. 30.
The auction will continue the following day from
11 a.m. until early afternoon.
Bayfield artist, Paula Letheren has encouraged
participation from over 55 artists from across
Canada and the USA and they responded by
donating pottery, painting, knitting, quilting, poetry,
baking and other arts to this silent auction.
A wine and cheese, generously sponsored by The
Little Inn, will be held Friday night from 7-9 p.m.
Entertainment on both Friday and Saturday will
include three talented young pianists, a local choir
and the well-known local playwright, actor and
director, Duncan MacGregor. All are welcome to
join the artists at this social event.
The fitness portion of the festival includes cycling,
running and walking.
Beginning at 11 a.m. on Oct. 1, an 8 KM run/walk
will progress through the historic village and the
newly developed Woodland Trail. The advanced
entry fee is $20 and on the day of the event the
fee is $25. Registration is from 9-10:30 a.m. at the
Bayfield Arena.
The Virtual High School is the lead sponsor of this
event. The Village Bookshop will provide the
water for the run/walk.

Pat McDougall, of Bayfield, is the talent behind this work.
The celebration of the female form comes from many mediums, including pottery, like the piece shown here by
Sheila Clennell of Beamsville, ON.
This run is sanctioned by the Ontario Masters as
a regional competition and medals are awarded to
winners of each age group. Individual high school
cross-country runners and school teams are
invited to participate with medals awarded to
junior and senior individual and team winners.
The cycling event begins at noon from the
Bayfield Arena and will cover a distance of 45 km
along paved county roads in Bluewater. CKNX
and Outside Projects have made this event
possible. Registration for this event will go from 9-
11:30 a.m. Cost to participate is $40 in advance or
$45 on the day of the event.
For those interested in participating in a shorter
and less demanding version of events as well as
contributing to this fundraiser, there is a 3 KM
route through the village. The cost to participate in
the shorter event is $20.
All those 16 and under can participate in any
event for $10.
Participants should note that due to the generosity
of the Municipalities of Bluewater and Central
Huron and those sponsors mentioned above, 100
per cent of the funds raised will go directly to the
Keeping Abreast Campaign of the AMGH
Foundation for the purchase of the mammography
unit.
Information and registration forms are available
online atwww.amghfoundation.ca. They are also
available at Outside Projects on Main Street in
Bayfield.

The community lost a great champion last week when Emma Vander Wouden died on Sept. 8 after a short battle with cancer.
She was 62. Some may know Emma better as the EM of TE -EM Farm a title she wore proudly for 30 years.
Personally, I considered Emma to be a friend and was both shocked and saddened to learn that this very feisty lady had left us
all so abruptly. Emma was the kind of person who could light a fire and get things done. I always knew this to be true as I'm
sure her fellow members of the Bayfield Agricultural Society did too. She served as secretary for the society for a number of
years. She was a passionate and generous person and will be missed by all.
On behalf of the community I would like to extend sympathy to her husband, Ted and their children.
A funeral mass was held on Sept. 12 at St. Peter's Roman Catholic Church in Goderich and cremation has taken place. In lieu
of flowers, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Bayfield Agricultural Society would be greatly appreciated.- Melody
