EASTER WEEKEND IIII / I I WMA 19,14 1 t I GALLERY The work of Artist Catherine Shane will be featured this weekend as part of the first Meet the Artist Reception for 2013 at the ]MR Gallery on Main Street. The work pictured above is entitled, "Basically Bayfield - Sunsational It measures 40"x20" and is acrylic on canvas. (Submitted photo) JMR Gallery on Main Street in Bayfield will kick off their "Meet the Artist" Series for 2013 with a reception on March 30 to introduce new works by two Ontario Artists. Mara Schiavetto and Catherine Shane will be in attendance from 1-3 p.m. and during that time some light refreshments will also be served. The gallery will be open until 8 p.m. that evening so there is plenty of time to drop by and take in the work of these two talented ladies. Although there are obvious differences in what appears on their canvases both women changed career paths to pursue their true passion — making art. Mara Schiavetto's notes on her website, "My recent paintings place emphasis on textures, color combinations and rhythm of lines to achieve a pleasing aesthetic, inviting the viewer to linger on passages, with the hope of creating an intimate dialog with the work." Schiavetto emigrated from Treviso, Italy settling in Montreal,Quebec to study art at McGill University. A developing interest in a travel career brought her to Toronto where she continued to study art and work in travel. She graduated from the Ontario College of Art and Design to become a full-time artist in 1998. "My current series of abstracted florals, however, resulted form a spontaneous burst of energy that needed to be expressed brightly, directly and without hesitation. The vivid colors, textures and vigorous mark making are in contrast to my series of non-objective abstractions," Schiavetto continued. "While the non-objective abstracts came from deep introspection, the current florals are a direct expression, an immediacy from my heart and soul. Although this is essentially a personal expression, it nevertheless finds universal appeal. One's soul responds Gary Lloyd -Rees, co -president of the PCoB, said, "We encourage every Bayfield Breeze reader, and their friends or family, to look through their digital photographs and to submit any that they would like to be considered for inclusion in the 2014 calendar." Images can be sent to the dedicated Flickr site at http://www.flickr.com/groups/bayfieldcalendar2Ol4/. Anyone who is not a regular user of Flickr can email their digital photographs directly to the PCoB at bayfieldpc@gmail.com. Please note that the cut-off for submissions is May 22. The final selection of photographs will be made by the end of May, with a special event being planned to launch the calendar over the Sail and Canvas weekend of June 15-16. Be sure to check the Bayfield Breeze for more details regarding the calendar launch over the coming weeks.

GROUP CLEANSE OFFERS SUPPORT TOWARD LIFESTYLE CHANGES * f Registered Holistic Nutritionist and owner of Willow Creek OW Y ., Wellness, Diana Trzok, is inviting all in the area to join her in Bayfield's First Annual Spring Community Cleanse. r "I want to help people train themselves to make good lifestyle + changes instead of looking for the quick fix. A group cleanse is more about support. Often times you are the only person in the ft household cleansing and this can prove to be challenging," she said. People are asked to meet at the new Bayfield Public Library on Apr. 6 at 10 a.m. to discuss and learn about the benefits of nutritional cleansing, the who, what, when, where and how's of bodily detoxification, effective cleansing programs and techniques to help rid the body of toxins. She will offer high, medium and low impact suggestions for cleansing to suit individual comfort levels. "So you can still eat food and some of your favorite meals, as it is not necessarily a juice cleanse or fast," said Trzok. It isn't always about fasting but it is about moving away from the standard Canadian diet and adding healthier practices to the diet. There will be a recipe swap so participants should bring a notebook and pen. "We will plan to embark on a 10 -day cleanse together as a community where we can benefit from the mutual support of like-minded, health conscious friends, colleagues and neighbors," she said. The cleanse will go from Apr. 8-18. Participants can join the event on Facebook at "Bayfield Community Cleanse". If there is enough interest Trzok plans to host a celebratory end -of -cleanse meal at the newly renovated Willow Creek Country Inn just south of Bayfield on Hwy. 21.

ST JAMES' ANGLICAN CHURCH, MIDDLETON SWEET TURNOUT FOR SUGAR BUSH TOUR PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER The sweet taste of maple syrup poured over a stack of freshly flipped pancakes is a spring ritual for many Canadians. It definitely is for the congregation of St. James', Middleton as they hosted their fourth annual Pancake Brunch and Sugar Bush Tour on March 23. The crowd that attended was large and enthusiastic despite the weather that was determined to feel more like winter than spring. As a result the sap was not running but both the young and young -at -heart seemed to enjoy the whole experience from learning where syrup comes from to tasting it on their tongue. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezelWeekl4lssuel95/tabid/606/Default.aspx 7/13 5/31/2019 Week 14 Issue 195 A fine snow may have been falling when Maitland and Gracie Hoggarth, of Clinton, boarded a hay wagon for a ride to the Schilbe Maple Sugar Bush on the morning of March 23 but the siblings were dressed for the weather The congregation of St. James', Middleton hosted their fourth annual Pancake Brunch and Sugar Bush Tour on March 23. Paul Aldwinckle was one of two tractor drivers that transported folks from Pine Lake Camp to the nearby Schilbe Sugar Bush. _7 -- According According to Rusty Schilbe, the Maple Syrup making season lasts about 14 days . So far in 2013 the family has "It's fun to watch the little ones bundled from top to toe, scramble to board the tractor drawn wagons for a ride through the bush to see where this talked about golden maple syrup comes from," said Audrey Middleton, a member of St. James', Middleton Church. "Then with rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes they toddle into the recreation centre to taste the product that has been dribbled over their pancakes and sausages. In some cases it's their first taste." According to Middleton, the members of the St. James' Anglican Church congregation are lucky to have Rick Schilbe as a member as he opens up his "Sugar Shack" for the tours. They are also fortunate that the Schilbe property has such a close and accommodating neighbor in the Pine Lake Camp Association as they allow the church to use their recreation centre for the brunch. The kitchen volunteers were just as busy as the tractor drivers with estimates that about 330 people took in the brunch. Attendance translated into the consumption of about 100 lbs. of Metzger's sausage, 50 lbs of pancake mix and nearly 20 litres of maple syrup. "With such grand facilities, along with extra support from friends and family we were able to host this popular event for the fourth year. And we thank you, heartily!" said Middleton. "Most of all, we appreciate the support of the public who attended. The monies raised will go to world outreach of the Anglican Church." Cold temperatures prevented the sap from running but both the young and young -at -heart seemed to enjoy the whole experience from learning where syrup comes from to tasting it on their tongue. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezelWeekl4lssuel95/tabid/606/Default.aspx 8/13 5/31/2019 Week 14 Issue 195 boiled for five days and hope that some warmer weather in the forecast will allow them to boil for a few days more.

The Schilbe's use a reverse osmosis machine (not pictured) to lessen the boiling time and improve the quality of the syrup. PIXILATED - IMAGE OF THE WEEK Annabelle Keys, of Varna, was all smiles after her mother, Paulien, wiped the maple syrup off her chin following breakfast with her family.

Oh sure, admittedly I watch a couple of the above shows as they are something my husband and I can watch together, have a dialogue about. But I prefer a good story with strong writing and good characters if I am going to take a break from my day and sit down in front of the "telly". The shows I really like you've probably never heard of — my favorites often fall into the category of "best new shows that no one Melody Falconer -Pounder is watching". They are all recurring so one week flows seamlessly into the other — the acting is superb, the writing clever. If you get a chance check out my top three: Parenthood, Smash or The Carrie Diaries (a prequel to Sex in the City). Sorry, there are no car crashes, mysteries to solve or shoot -em -ups and no one gets voted off the island or handed a rose. And despite that they are still able to tell thoughtful stories that really connect with ... well, me. - Melody Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome. Deadlines for submissions are Sundays at 4 p.m. Please email me at bayfield.breeze@yillageofbayfield.com or call 519-565-2443.
