BASIA BULAT BACK IN BAYFIELD
BLUEWATER NEWS
The autumn leaves are falling and Bluewater
residents are raking.
The Municipality of Bluewater will be providing pickup
of these bagged leaves from Oct. 22 to Nov. 23.
Life was pretty normal until Dad came out of the
closet. Then it got more interesting.
"Confessions of a Fairy's Daughter" is the latest
comic monologue by Alison Wearing to be brought to
the stage at the Bayfield Town Hall on Oct. 27.

STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER
Tomorrow night (Oct. 18), Basia Bulat will make the commute from Toronto to Bayfield for a
performance at the Bayfield Town Hall as part of the Bayfield Concert Series. It is a trek she
likes to try and make at least once a year.
1 love performing in the Bayfield Town Hall. It has a great energy. I think this will be my third or
fourth visit," Bulat said in a telephone interview. "Everyone there is always so very supportive of
my music. And I enjoy working with Pete Meades (concert series organizer). Looking at the
schedule for the hall I can see he is offering some great music in the series."
Bulat also noted that she always tries to make time to do a little shopping while in the village
and also make a visit to the water.
"I love going into the little shops and antique stores. I'm always looking for an oddity, a little
treasure, that's my thing, and of course, to be by the water is always great too," said Bulat.
For Bulat, whose first album, "Oh My Darling" was released in 2007, her music career has
availed her of one amazing opportunity after another.
One such opportunity happened in the spring of this year when she was invited to perform a
Leonard Cohen Song when the aforementioned artist received the 2012 Glen Gould Prize.
"It was a huge honor, incredible, beyond my wildest dreams to sing one of his songs for him. It
was the first time I had set foot on the Massey Hall stage and to be there with so many other
musicians was really cool," she recalled. "I think it is every Canadian musician's dream to
perform their own concert in that hall. I would consider myself to be ambitious, but in specific
ways, I don't dream of playing in stadiums but rather the perfect venue with great energy, great
sound and a strong history and Massey Hall has all of that."
Just a couple nights ago, on Oct. 13, Bulat had another exciting opportunity playing with the
Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra.
"The orchestra has some really amazing musicians. The arrangements that Owen Pallett did
for my songs were phenomenal. The whole experience was like a dream and I can hardly
believe that it happened," she said.
For Bulat the dream began at the age of three. She thought she would be a classical musician
due in part to the influence of her piano teaching mother. But things began to evolve as she
grew and opened herself up to a variety of string instruments as well. In fact, if performance
videos are any indication the autoharp has become rather synonymous with Bulat's talent.
"The autoharp is something of an oddity. I like its history. It is a relatively new instrument and
although sometimes associated with Folk Music or Bluegrass it doesn't have the weight on its
shoulders like other instruments. I think that is what is appealing to me about it," she said.
According to the Wearing's website, it is based on
her own life growing up with a gay father.
The website indicates that the "multimedia
performance moves from her carefree childhood to
the moment she learned, at age 12, that her family
was a tad more complex than she had thought...
Balancing intimacy, history and downright hilarity,
Confessions of a Fairy's Daughter is a captivating
tale of family life: deliciously imperfect, riotously
challenging, and full of life's great lessons in love."
A highlight of the evening will be a question and
answer period with Wearing following the
presentation.
Tickets are on sale now for $25 and can be
purchased by contacting Pat McDougall at 519 565-
2572 or Jane Rowat at 519 565-5838.
Proceeds from the evening's performance that will
begin at 8 p.m. will go toward greenery for the town
hall and surroundings.
TOWN HALL
All are invited to come out to the Bayfield Town Hall
on Oct. 20, to jump and jive, swing and sway and cut

licensed event.
Tickets are available now by calling Kate Lloyd -Rees

2244 or through ticketscene.ca.

the generous sponsorship of this event by OLG.
FLU CLINICS
It is the time of year to start thinking about staying
healthy during the winter months. With that in mind
the Bluewater Area Family Health Team have set
dates for Community Influenza Clinics to be held
within the municipality.
The first clinic will be held in Bayfield at Trinity
Anglican Church on Oct. 24 from 4-6 p.m. Other
clinics will be held in Dashwood at Zion Lutheran
Church on Oct. 27 from 10-11:30 a.m. and in Zurich
at the medical centre on Oct. 30 from 4:30-6:30 p.m.
Those who take part should wear short sleeves, or a
shirt with sleeves that roll up easily, and bring their
health card.

Bulat credits a number of people for helping her out along the way in establishing her musical
career. "I've always played music but haven't always been 'networky'."
Her initial album was at first meant as a keepsake of a period of time meant for family and
friends. One friend, however, had other ideas and he began to network on her behalf resulting
in Bulat signing to the British label, Rough Trade.
Bulat recently returned from touring in Spain and notes that she enjoys performing no matter
which side of the ocean she is on.
"Every city has its own personality and offers a different energy to the shows," she said. "I
enjoy Spain as it provides me with an opportunity to practice my Spanish — it adds a fun
element to performing. They are always so supportive and it allows me to test myself with
music, words and language, all elements of interest to me."
In 2010, Bulat released her second album, "Heart of My Own".
"This is the end of the touring for this record," she said, as plans to release her third album are
in the works for the New Year. "Although I do like to perform new songs before the record is
out. I gave them a road test at a lot of the stops on the tour. It helps determine what should and
shouldn't go on the new album."
When asked what she does to prepare for a performance Bullat noted that she relies on some
advice she received from an opera singer, "save your energy for the show, no matter how
excited you are." She noted that it is advice that has served her well thus far, that, and some
hot tea with lemon and honey.
Shopping for oddities and treasures will have to wait until Friday.
Tickets for Bulat's performance are selling for $30 and can be purchased in Bayfield at The
Black Dog Pub and Bistro or Luxe Clothing Company. The show will begin at 8:30 p.m. with
doors to the town hall opening at 8 p.m. London Life is the show sponsor.

HERITAGE CONIlMTTEE EXPLORES
HISTORY OF ST. PETER'S CHURCH
The mandate of the Bluewater Heritage Committee (BHC) is to promote the preservation and
maintenance of architectural and/or historic buildings, cultural landscapes and natural heritage
features. It is an advisory committee of the Municipality of Bluewater.
The BHC offers October's "Heritage Feature of the Month", St. Peter's Roman Catholic Church
in St. Joseph.
The history of this site goes back to 1850 when a log cabin was built to serve as a school,
church and meeting place. This parish was established in 1854 as "St. Pierre-aux-Bouleaux"
(St. Peter's of the Birches). The cemetery had its first burial in 1856. A fire in 1859 destroyed
the cedar church as it was being built. The parishioners continued to use the log cabin until
1873 when the white brick church was built. In 1930 a painting bee was organized to paint the
bricks red and in 1987 they were sandblasted back to the original color that we see today.
St. Andre visited the parish in 1917 and 1922 as a guest of his friend, Narcisse Cantin. Another
famous visitor was Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent, and his family, who were entertained at
lunch in the hall beside the church.

In Issue 171, this undated photo showed three
people standing in front of one of Main Street's
iconic buildings. Several folks remarked on this
image but only Marilyn Pfaff could identify all three
people as well as the location of the photo.
"It was taken in front of The Village Guild, with Sarah
and Richard Dick, along with Miss Kruke — likely
taken about the time that the Dicks purchased The
Village Guild from Miss Kruke," shared Pfaff. "She
was one of the two sisters who began the shop. By
the time the Dicks had bought the business, one of
the sisters had died. As I recall Sarah telling us, the
Kruke sisters were also teachers, as were the
Dicks."

BAYFIELD LIONS' CLUB
OVER 70 TROUT AND SALMON CAUGHT DURING DERBY
PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY

The 34th Annual Joe Brandon Memorial Rainbow
Trout Derby, organized by the Bayfield Lions' Club
was probably one of the most exciting on record
with the winning trout coming in just 10 minutes

Fishermen endured a mixed bag of fall weather during the derby but Sunday morning proved practically balmy
albeit a little windy.
The Bayfield Lions' Club's Joe Brandon Memorial Trout Derby was held on Oct. 12-14 with 235 people
competing.
Fishermen took advantage of the floating docks that were still in the marinas on the weekend.
before the competition closed at noon on Sunday,
Oct. 14.
The weather was "fairly cooperative" for the derby
that began at 6 a.m. on Oct. 12. It was touted to
be very successful as almost immediately the fish
were biting. There were 235 tickets sold for the
competition and a total of 71 fish caught, 35 trout
and 36 salmon.
"Tim Moon had a busy time as official judge at the
scales, and was helped by Tracy Heatherington
who did an excellent job keeping the board up to
date," said Lion Tom Grasby.
The top three prizes for the heaviest Rainbow
Trout went to: first, Kevin Langille, of Goderich,
7.95 lbs., $800; second, Ryan Kunder, 7.77 lbs.,
$400; and third, Casey Gee, 7.71 lbs., $300.
The Eric Earle Memorial went to 11 year-old
Tyson Bauld, who caught a trout that weighed
7.17 lbs. The Bill Thorpe Memorial was given to
John Publicover. His trout tipped the scales at
5.49 lbs The biggest salmon to come across the
weigh station scales was 17.57 lbs and was
caught by Don Spittle.
All participants had a chance to win a variety of
other prizes graciously donated by local
merchants.
The event also featured some entertainment.
"Mark Osborn, a DJ from Sarnia, put on quite a
show and dance on Saturday night. He donated
half the nights proceeds to the Lions, a total of
$310," said Grasby.
And then on Sunday afternoon as participants
gathered to hear the winners announced they also
got to watch Dave Heatherington work his usual
magic carving a fish from a block of ice.
Brian Higgs, from South of Bayfield, was busy
fastening some bait to his hook on Sunday morning.
Higgs wasn't competing in the derby as he had only
learned of it recently after just moving to the area,
but he plans to take part in the 35th annual event.

Week 43 Issue 172
Fishing enthusiasts take all kinds of approaches to their sport, some sit quietly perched on a rock
while others take to the water.
Anyone who took a drive down to the Main Beach on Sunday morning would have spotted people fishing in
nearly every available spot along the waterway.
A number of fish came in just prior to the close of the competition on Sunday and a small crowd gathered to
watch Tim Moon (far right) complete his tasks as official judge. He was assisted by Tracy Heatherington who
kept the result board up to date.
Jaimy Langille, 8, of Goderich, holds her prize catch
in anticipation of getting it weighed. The Rainbow
Trout came in at 5.6 lbs. The fishing was fine for
this family as her father, Kevin, brought in the
heaviest trout of the derby and claimed first prize
for his efforts.
Tim Moon records the numbers after weighing in the
heaviest trout of the competition.

Tis' the season of the chocolatey mint cookie — for a lot of folks it is a love -hate affair. Traditionally people either really, really,
like this cookie or prefer to wait until spring when the classics are available. These Girl Guide delights have been around in
some form or another since about 1993. 1 remember when they were $2 a box. I remember when they were first introduced we
were given two cases to sell as a test run. We sold our two cases at the Trinity Church Christmas Bazaar — offering a free taste
to all and sundry — the occasion even made the local paper. Oh gee, that's nearly 20 years ago isn't it?
Well, we've certainly come along way ... the cookies now sell for $5 a box and this year in particular we are experiencing a sales
explosion. My ladies put 32 cases out into circulation in a week and came back asking for more. A friend was kind enough to
pick up 25 additional cases for me while she was in Toronto and they too are going fast. These tremendous sales
achievements are really exciting for the girls. The whole experience leaves me humbled at the support of the surrounding
So if you have a hankering for a box or two send me an email, but don't hesitate, the way the girls are selling there may only be crumbs left by next
week... - Melody
