Sept. 5, 2012 Vol. 4 Week 37 Issue 166 OLD FAMILY FARMS INVITED TO CELEBRATE WITH SIGNAGE WEEKEND TRADGEDY At around 4 p.m. on Sept. 2, a holiday weekend turned tragic when the village fire siren sounded, then several emergency vehicles, including the police boat being towed by a police vehicle, were seen speeding through town. Later helicopters began patrolling the lakeshore. A 53 year-old man from Atwood, ON is missing and presumed drowned after jumping from a 30 foot pleasure craft into Lake Huron about eight KMs from Bayfield. According to the Huron Perth County Crime News website, as of 6 p.m. Sept. 3, the search for the man was continuing. A second man, a 62 year-old from cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze[Week371ssuel66/tabid/577/Default.aspx 1/14 5/27/2019 Week 37 Issue 166 This sign is proudly displayed at the home of Dave and Carol Steckle. Their 1865 Century Farm is located at 74101 Bronson Line. It has been in the family for 147 continuous years and is best known as Huron Ridge Acres. (Photo courtesy of the Bluewater Heritage Advisory Committee) Families who have owned their farms for 100 years or longer are encouraged to celebrate their heritage by joining the Junior Farmers' Century Farm Sign (CFS) program. In 1967, the Junior Farmers' Association of Ontario (JFAO) started the Century Farm Sign Project to celebrate Canada's Centennial. In 2017, farms that were 100 years old in 1967, will be 150 years old. And, in two years, the first Junior Farmers' Clubs, chartered in 1914, will be 100 years old. These anniversaries present a unique opportunity to recognize the historical value of local agricultural properties. "I am just delighted to join with the Huron Junior Farmers' Club to celebrate Bluewater's old family farms. As an owner of three farms that have been in my family for over 100 years, I want to encourage century farm owners to apply for the Junior Farmers' signs. Let's have one outside every farm that meets their criteria," said Bill Dowson, Mayor of Bluewater. The Dowson farms are located on Babylon Line, Concession 9, in the former Township of Stanley. Two of the farms were purchased from the Canada Company. In the early days, there was a sign requirement that the farms remained in the name of male descendants. Times have changed, now it's 100 years or more of continuous "family" operation. Samantha Klaver, president of the Huron Junior Farmers' Club, said, "Because of the Century Farm Sign Project's continued popularity, signs are in great demand and we even get requests from farms in the province that have been run by the same family for 200 years. The fee for each sign helps us supports the cost of the program and leadership development in our clubs." The Municipality of Bluewater and its Heritage Committee have partnered with the Huron Junior Farmers' Club (HCJF) to promote the program. Owners may find application forms and instructions on the Junior Farmers' website at: http://www.jfao.on.ca/what-we-offer/century- farmsigns/. Dave MacLaren, chair of the Bluewater Heritage Advisory Committee, said, "The Municipality also welcomes contact from owners of farms that are 100 years old or more, regardless of whether they've been in the same family or not, so we'll know where heritage farms are located. "A farm may be considered heritage or historically significant because of its age, the years a family has lived there; the activities of one or more family members for example, a prominent citizen; the property contains an old tree; or because it was the site of a large-scale or special event." North Perth, had also jumped in the water. He was rescued and remained in stable condition at Alexandra Marine and General Hospital in Goderich. The names of the victims are being withheld at this time. The police report stated, the missing man was the boat operator. He and another male passenger, a 62 year-old from North Perth, jumped into the water for a swim. Neither was wearing a personal flotation device. The waves and wind quickly separated the pair from the boat and they were unable to swim back. Passengers on the boat, although inexperienced were able to maneuver the vessel and recover the 62 year-old male. He was pulled on board but not before he was struck by the pitching vessel and ingested a considerable amount of water. The 53 year-old male was unable to reach the boat and slipped beneath the surface. The injured male was brought to shore and taken to the hospital in Goderich for treatment. Emergency personnel responded to the scene after witnesses on shore saw flares shot from the vessel. A United States Coast Guard helicopter responded quickly to the scene and assisted in the search until RCC Trenton responded to the scene. The RCC Trenton helicopter, two OPP vessels, two Canadian Coast Guard vessels along with several private boat owners searched the area where he was last seen until dark on Sunday. Officers on ATV's continued to search along the shoreline. The water search resumed Monday morning. As of Monday evening, there were three OPP vessels, an OPP helicopter and the Provincial Underwater Search and Recovery Unit at the scene. Two ATV's were also being used to search the shoreline. Editor's Update: Just before noon on Sept. 5, Gordon Van Dyke, 53, of Elma Township (Atwood), was found deceased by an OPP officer from the Huron County detachment in Lake Huron south of Bayfield.

LAND IN THE HURON TRACT CAN BE BAYFIELD TREE PROJECT DONATED FOR PRESERVATION Our area trees are thirsty, especially those new trees planted both last year and this spring as part of the cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze[Week371ssuel66/tabid/577/Default.aspx 5/14 5/27/2019 Week 37 Issue 166 - 4lafar fiver 1 lumn grad Lund Tr EC - Ly The Huron Land Trust Conservancy Area is shown on this map. The year 2012 marks 60 years of land acquisitions in Ausable Bayfield watersheds to preserve and protect natural areas for the future. It was 1952 when the former Ausable River Conservation Authority (ARCA) first began to purchase important parcels of land to protect soil, water, and living things. That year, the ARCA purchased land, with important ecological features, from at least eight local families. The acquired land was located in Hay Swamp, west of Exeter; the Adams-Klopp Tract, northeast of Zurich; and in Parkhill, now site of Parkhill Conservation Area. Six decades later, those natural lands continue to provide environmental benefits such as, habitat for birds and animals, protection of water quality and quantity, and limiting the loss of trees. Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA) has acquired many other significant areas of land over the past six decades through purchases and donations. ABCA continues to look at the strategic acquisition of lands in important natural areas through a long-term land securement plan. A diverse community group that met between 2010 and 2011 to develop a new Conservation Strategy encouraged ABCA to "acquire conservation lands strategically in order to conserve healthy habitat, forest conditions, water quality and water quantity." The Ausable Bayfield Conservation Foundation (ABCF) has preserved and protected natural areas as well since the foundation's incorporation in 1974. Since then the ABCF has received gifts of land, applied for grants for the acquisition of land for future preservation and donated towards the purchase of important natural areas. The ABCF also offered a new opportunity for people to donate land or gifts in a larger area through the creation of the Huron Tract Land Trust Conservancy (HTLTC). The Land Trust was created in 2011 with a new volunteer board of directors from diverse walks of life. The board oversees the land trust, which seeks to preserve some natural properties throughout the area of the historic Huron Tract, an area that stretches north from Arkona and includes Lucan, Goderich, Stratford, Exeter, Bayfield, Clinton, and Seaforth, among other communities. "Local municipalities, landowners, and the conservation authority showed vision sixty years ago when land was acquired for the benefit of future generations," said Roger Lewington, chair of the HTLTC Board of Directors. "We encourage people to consider donations in order to leave a land legacy for the future." For information on lands that have been preserved visit abca.on.ca For information on how you can leave a local land legacy for the future, in the area of the historic Huron Tract, visit htltc.ca or phone 519-235-2610 or toll-free 1-888-286-2610. Bayfield Tree Project (BTP). Residents are encouraged to keep watering these trees. New trees need one inch (2.5 cm) of water per week to survive. A slow trickle of water over several hours is the best method. Trees planted by the BTP can be found on Louisa, Anne, Charles, Howard, Colina and Jane Streets as well as on Bayfield Terrace and Victoria Place. HEARING CLINIC Have you heard the news?

The vehicle was far from white at the end of the day! PHOTOS BY JACK PAL AND DIANNE BRANDON, STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER The Optimist Club of Bayfield invited all in the community to come out to their first ever "Open Mic" in Clan Gregor Square on the afternoon of Sept. 2 and come out the people did! In fact it was nearly impossible to find a parking space all around the square. It was a family friendly way to wrap up all the fun of summer before school started on Tuesday morning. The afternoon featured some excellent performances by: "The Donnybrooks", "Aces High", Danielle Durand, Brett Pitblado, Gerard Creces, and Richard Gracious. Plus it was reported that "The Honey Sweethearts" led by young songstress, Ava Dawe, stole the show. The young lady sang "I'll be There", "Tomorrow" and the theme from "Arthur". She was accompanied by her parents Steve, on guitar, and Heather, on drums. The youngsters were kept busy with crafts, parachute games, bubbles and a music station. And folks really brought their appetites as organizers noted that over 100 hamburgers and hotdogs were consumed along with popcorn, water and juice boxes. A unique way to get those creative juices flowing was also offered — for a toonie — you could leave your artistic mark on a derelict, white F150. When the day was done the truck wasn't white any longer! People also brought forth their generosity filing the donation boxes provided at the event with coins and bills. The money raised from this event will go toward youth oriented activities and projects sponsored by the Optimist Club of Bayfield. The club members would like to extend thanks to Jeff Graham, of Bayfield, for providing the idea, not to mention the musical talents, for this event. The membership was inspired by his enthusiasm cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze[Week371ssuel66/tabid/577/Default.aspx 9/14 5/27/2019 Week 37 Issue 166 Gerard Creces, of Goderich, performed at "Open Mic" captivating some of the younger members of the crowd.

Members of the Optimist Club of Bayfield were approached by Jeff Graham with the idea or creating an "end" of summer musical fundraiser. What evolved was "Open Mic" and it included a barbecue. Optimist Brenda Kinnear displayed the hotdogs and hamburgers all ready to be devoured by hungry attendees.

I'd march down the front steps, imaginary bouquet in hand, until I reached the magnificent weeping birch on our front lawn where my imaginary groom awaited. So it was a lot of fun to watch my young cousin practically reenact that scenario on Saturday afternoon when she and her wedding party got ready in the farmhouse. She enjoyed a photo shoot around the home farm and then got married on the property directly across the road which is now owned by my older cousin, her dad. This place was part of my childhood ramblings too. I will always have a special place in my heart for this young bride, for at the age of six she helped me celebrate my own marriage as a member of my wedding party. From flower girl to bride — she was beautiful at both! I was married at the end of November; the dream of an outdoor wedding from childhood set aside, but there is no regret. When I walked to the top of the church aisle on that day all those years ago, my little wedding party of smiling cherubs looked up at me and it was just how I had pictured it — my groom was imaginary no more! I'm sure our newlywed will be able to make a similar comment as the years pass. Congratulations cousin Erin and welcome to the family, Ian! - Melody Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
