Organizers hope for the same this year but if the snow is lacking hiking boots will work too. (Photo by Dennis Pal) The Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA) will be hosting a winter hike at the Varna Trail System, located at the Varna Complex on Jan. 20 from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Depending on the amount of snow, participants are invited to wear snowshoes or hiking boots. Outside Projects will be on hand with snowshoes to rent, but it is best to reserve by calling 519 440-8585 or email outsideprojects@tcc.on.ca. The Varna Trail System has two loops. Mavis' Trail goes to the river and is approximately 4 kms. It is relatively flat with one steep area at the Robeson Bridge, a 90 -foot trestle bridge, completed last year by the BRVTA. The other loop is the Taylor Trail, a 1.5 km loop that is being built as a mobility trail, accessible to all. The hike will start at 10:30 a.m. sharp, so participants are asked to be on hand a few minutes early. The hike is open to all and there is no charge. At noon the BRVTA will serve hot dogs and drinks in the Varna Complex. Donations would be gratefully accepted. The BRVTA will have information on hand about the schedule for construction of the Taylor Trail in 2013, as well as information on the recent Great Lakes Guardian Grant for the Trail, and the Bayfield Watershed Study. The BRVTA are looking for desserts and/or treats to compliment their hot dog lunch. This may be the perfect opportunity for folks to get all the left over Christmas goodies out of their house to avoid resolution breaking temptation. "Treats for Trails" can be brought to the Varna Complex on Jan. 20 — can be brought to any of the fitness classes at the Bayfield Arena (see Fitness Fun for dates and times) or call the number below for pick up.

They will continue this work in 2013 with 65 more trees expected to be planted. (Photo by Melody Falconer -Pounder) BY KEN LARONE More than 65 trees will be planted in the Bayfield River Valley and its watershed next year, according to Sondra Buchner, of the Bayfield Tree Project which is under the umbrella of the Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA). The BRVTA has made tree planting a major focus for helping to restore the health of the Bayfield River. A single tree saves $31,000 in soil erosion throughout its life span. Toronto found it saved an additional $62,000 in pollution control. Property owners are asked to water the trees on a regular basis throughout the first two years of planting. "The trees cost us about $150 each and we find some homeowners are giving us contributions that help us buy more trees," said Buchner. The Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA) says a healthy landscape has 25 per cent tree coverage. At best, tree coverage from Clinton to the river mouth in Bayfield is 18 per cent. In the rest of the 400 km river watershed, the tree coverage is five per cent. "This means we need to plant an additional seven to 10 million trees in the watershed," said Ray Letheren, a director of the BRVTA. The ABCA warned recently that low water levels in the river and lake could cause serious water problems next summer. Mike Tam of the Water Response Team for the ABCA said, "Water use is traditionally very low during the winter. People need to be aware we could be in a serious situation as early as next spring." All proceeds from the event will go toward the Optimist Club of Bayfield's "Making -A -Splash" Campaign. EMPTIES IIES FOR � H l IMERS Two Bayfield women would like to remind everyone cleaning up from their holiday gatherings that their tradition of collecting empties for Alzheimer's Disease is continuing this year. Dianne Brandon and Carrie Courtney will be participating in the 2013 Walk for Memories on Jan. 26 at the Goderich YMCA from 10 a.m. to noon and are now collecting donations for the cause. They will accept empty beer bottles and cans; wine and liquor bottles for their team, "For the Love of Elaine and Doris". The ladies being honored are currently living with Alzheimers, Elane Brandon, Courtney's grandmother, and Doris Schilbe, Dianne's mother. Empties of all sorts may be dropped off at Brandon's Hardware in Bayfield, or picked up anytime, just call Brandon's Hardware at 519 565-2677 or 519 565- 2545. Empties may also be dropped off at Bayfield Convenience in their names. 11141H "V11 Zlcl "-Ij All The Bayfield Optimist Club's "Making a Splash" Campaign is now ongoing in the community. Club members and "Friends of Optimists" will be going door-to-door to talk to people about the Splash Pad project and provide them with a letter explaining how they can contribute. The Municipality of Bluewater will provide tax receipts for donations over $25. This letter will offer details on how people can purchase an engraved brick or park bench to aid in the fundraising. Canvassers will be wearing "name tags" identifying themselves as being part of the campaign. People who wish to purchase a brick or a bench but don't live in the village can now access the order form online through the recently launched website: www. bayfieldsplashpad.com. A PDF of the same form being distributed door-to-door is available on the site, just fill it out, print it off and mail it in. Can't wait for a person to come to the door? Forms are also available at Brandon's Hardware. University of Michigan reported recently all Great Lakes are badly polluted. Low water levels in Brick walkways similar in design to the existing the lakes and their feeder rivers will make the pollution worse. The university estimates the Bayfield Town Hall and the Clan Gregor Square restoration will cost billions of dollars. walkways will be installed around the Splash Pad giving the project a timeless and cohesive look. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/WEEK041SSUE185/tabid/596/Default.aspx 3/15 5/31/2019 WEEK 04 ISSUE 185 ABCA RECEIVES FUNDING FOR YOUTH EMPLOYMENT Huron -Bruce MP Ben Lobb visited Ausable Bayfield Conservation's administration centre east of Exeter recently to announce $19,000 in funding to help a young person to develop jobs skills and gain work experience in Huron County. In this photo from I -r are: Tom Prout, general manager and secretary treasurer of Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA); MPP for Huron -Bruce, Ben Lobb; Rob Carnegie, GIS assistant and former beneficiary of the Career Focus program; and Dave Frayne, chairman, Board of Directors, ABCA. The Government of Canada has announced funding to help a recent post -secondary graduate to gain valuable skills and experience needed to enter and succeed in the job market. Huron -Bruce MPP Ben Lobb made the announcement recently, on behalf of the Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development, Diane Finley, at a ceremony at the offices of the Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA), just east of Exeter. "Our government's top priorities are creating jobs, economic growth, and long-term prosperity," Lobb said. "The Government of Canada's Youth Employment Strategy is helping youth develop the skills and gain the experience they need to get jobs now and prepare for the workforce of tomorrow." Ausable Bayfield Conservation is receiving more than $19,000 from the Career Focus program to help a recent graduate gain on-the-job experience in Huron County and to apply the skills acquired through education to facilitate the transition to work. Career Focus is part of the Government of Canada's Youth Employment Strategy (YES). The participant will gain meaningful career experience through tasks such as web programming and redesigning and improving a database. The participant will also receive training and mentorship from executive staff. "The Government of Canada's Career Focus program is helping us provide practical job skills to a young, post -graduate student," said Dave Frayne, chairman, Board of Directors, ABCA. "This funding helps support our local conservation agency in the work we do." An employee of Ausable Bayfield Conservation underlined the positive impact of the Government of Canada's Career Focus program on youth when he described how the program had made a positive change in his life. Rob Carnegie has now been working for ABCA for almost two years as a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Assistant. He learned the skills needed for his job thanks to the Career Focus program. "Before my employment here, I studied in a four-year program called Integrated Land Planning which is a blend of land use planning, landscape design, and GIS," he told a crowd that included media and directors of the ABCA board. "Upon graduating from the program I found it If all goes according to plan, the club hopes to have the sprinklers spraying in the park by Canada Day 2013.

Most of the job postings I found required a minimum of two years of working experience. That's when I was lucky enough to come across a job posting here at the ABCA courtesy of the Government of Canada's Career Focus Program." The work experience Carnegie gained through the program equipped him with the skills that earned him full-time employment. "Without the funding offered by Service Canada, this opportunity wouldn't have existed for me and I wouldn't be standing here today," he said. "With that in mind, I would like to extend my thanks to Service Canada and also to the ABCA for their support in the Career Focus Program." Carnegie told those in attendance that through the Career Focus program he had received support from fellow staff members and learned from them on a daily basis. "There is a vast amount of knowledge and expertise in this local organization, and as such, I have learned a great deal about conservation authorities and the work that goes on in this watershed," he said. "I am truly grateful for this opportunity and I look forward to continuing my work here." The new Career Focus position has been advertised widely in the watershed and following interviews the successful applicant will be hired in the New Year. With annual funding of more than $300 million, YES helps youth, particularly those facing barriers to employment, obtain career information, develop employment skills, find jobs, and stay employed. YES includes the Skills Link and Career Focus programs and the Canada Summer Jobs initiative, which creates thousands of job opportunities for students every summer. Economic Action Plan 2012 is providing an additional $50 million over two years to enhance YES through a new initiative that will connect young Canadians with jobs that are in high demand and help them develop tangible skills and gain work experience. Youth employment programs are part of the Government of Canada's broader strategy to create an educated, skilled, and flexible workforce. The Government underscored its commitment to this strategy in Canada's Economic Action Plan. A key component of the plan is to create more and better opportunities for Canadian workers through skills development.

This was actually written 10 days ago. I thought about submitting a missive from my holiday destination but the variables even in this day of modern technology were just too many to stress over. In fact back in my early days of journalism (a.k.a 1989) 1 went on my very first trip to Disney World and arranged with my editor that I would fax, yes fax, him my column from our hotel in time for publication. I spent a great deal of time on the piece and Melody Falconer -Pounder really thought I had penned something stellar and humorous to boot. I went to a great deal of trouble and expense to ensure it was faxed in time. You can imagine my disappointment when I returned home to learn that the fax had dropped the middle pages of the column so it didn't read very smoothly and my editor in his good natured manner had endeavored to fill in the blanks for when it went to print. A few things got lost in the translation. So what does history teach us? Well, it taught me that you will just have to read about how I spent my winter vacation upon my return. - Melody P.S. Please note the deadline for articles for our next "live" issue is Sunday, Jan. 27 at 4 p.m. Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
