The Childhood Cancer Research Association (Childcan) and Virtual Highschool.com (VHS) are pleased to announce their partnership to deliver a new program that provides Online Learning Bursaries for children coping with cancer. Together they hope to offer a solution that enables children to continue their education and helps families to deal with the difficulties associated with cancer diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. With this partnership we hope to enhance the quality of life for children affected with childhood cancer — this means helping to provide education that is available at any time and in any place. like to send a special thank you to her for spreading word of the village." The pillow project was the vision of the Bayfield and Area Chamber of Commerce's Sail and Canvas Committee with a view to putting the village name in the hands and homes of visitors and residents alike. Inspirations on Main Street has pillows available for purchase, they are being sold for $40 (cash only). AUCTION The streetscape on Main was changed forever in February when long time business owner Denis Woolley died at the age of 75 from cancer. Woolley purchased the Gardiner House building in the year 2000 and moved his antique business into the back of the house, prior to that he had a store in the Charles Street Shops. A couple seasons later his daughters opened Inspirations in the front portion of the building. In recent months his children have had the difficult task of sorting through the inventory accumulated for Den's Country Corner Antiques & Collectibles and have decided that they will host a Clearance Auction Sale on Aug. 31 to sell the remaining items. They will then close the business — but Inspirations will remain open. The sisters felt that an auction would be a fitting way to celebrate Woolley's life as he spent many happy hours at auctions collecting items for the business. A portion of the day's proceeds will be donated to the Canadian Cancer Society in honor of both their father and mother, Coralee, who both succumbed to the disease. The couple was married for more than 45 years. Medley Auctions, of Milton, ON will be presiding over the auction. The company specializes in quality antiques, collections and estates. People can visit medleyauctions.com to see a detailed listing and photos of items that will be for sale. Such items as Royal Doulton figures, primitives, antique and contemporary furniture, toys and tools will be offered. The sale will begin at 10:30 a.m. with a preview starting at 9 a.m. For more information please call Karen at 647 287-4568 or visit www.medleyauctions.com. OPTLVIIST CLUB Celebrate the Labour Day Weekend, we refuse to say the end of summer, with the Bayfield Optimist Club as they present, "Open Mic" in Clan Gregor Square on Sept. 1.

All funds raised will be donated directly to Childcan to help provide educational support and opportunities. VHS will be covering all costs associated with organizing the race and will donate all course and administrative fees free of charge to children in the Online Learning Bursary Program. The bursaries will cover all teacher fees associated with enrollments through the partnership. "When kids have to be away from school for lengthy periods of time for life saving treatments this changes the dynamics with their peer groups. One thing kids want to do is to just be "normal again" when they return to school; but many will face challenges from effects of treatment, not to mention many months of lost time while their friends move forward, said Marianne Hebb, executive director of Childcan. "We are thrilled to be able to partner with VHS in offering an alternative way for kids with cancer to keep up with their studies during treatment and post treatment. Most importantly a program like this will help them stay on track to eventually graduate with their friends." "Life is tough even under normal circumstances. To layer cancer on top of a child's life and have it interfere with the normal developmental processes all kids go through would be particularly devastating. VHS does education differently. Our flexible approach to education will allow the type of access to education that kids coping with cancer need. VHS is extremely pleased to contribute our expertise and administrative services to help these kids. All that is needed are sneakers on the pavement in Bayfield on 28 September 2013," Stephen Baker, principal, VHS. There are opportunities for all of our supporters to be involved as participants, volunteers, or donors. Please visit www.vhsrun4kids.com or contact Childcan or VHS directly to learn more. Childcan is an incorporated community-based, not for profit charity that raises funds to provide responsive and compassionate support services to families facing the journey through childhood cancer — from diagnosis and treatment, to recovery, or bereavement. Childcan has served children and their families living throughout Southwestern Ontario by providing support and resources since 1974.

This news was all the incentive The Sunshine Coast Quilters Guild members needed, obviously. MYSTERY OF WASHED UP RELIC SOLVED Bayfield Breeze subscribers aided the Bayfield Archivist in determining what this item washed ashore recently was once used for. (Photos by Ralph Laviolette) An old relic was recently tossed from Lake Huron and Bayfield Historical Society (BHS) contacted the Bayfield Breeze looking to the public to try and identify its purpose. According to Ralph Laviolette, Bayfield's volunteer archivist, subscribers contacted him with the following information, "Readers reported that our mysterious piece of flotsam in last week's Bayfield Breeze could be parts of a capstan on a boat, but more likely, a piece of the hub of a mundane wagon wheel that found its way into the lake." Doug Vanderhaar, of Bayfield wrote, "The tapered center fits on a steel axle which in turn was fastened to a wooden frame. There would have been wooden spokes in the center area that held the steel rim for the tire. "I am not sure of the tire size but think it would be a 15 inch tire similar in size of a pickup truck. There was a wagon similar to this on the end of Crystal Springs Road a few years ago." The item in question was found washed up on the beach near Kippen Road, the week of July 14. It was found by a Bayfield Historical Society member and brought to the Bayfield Archives.

"When the full programming is complete you will know five different scripts," said Paakkunainen. "You will be able to make lovely gifts for family and friends or have fun adding that special touch to cards and crafts." Illuminating and card making is touched on in this course to show how versatile this new craft can be. "It is amazing how creative we can be in a very fun and relaxing atmosphere," she said.

Cowie travels the world hosting photo adventures with his company Photo Tour Trekkers, sharing some of the unique locations our world has to offer photographers of all skill levels. His number one belief is to have fun with your camera. He said, "The more comfortable and relaxed you are, the better your powers of observation, resulting in more exciting images". A guided themed photo walk will follow each of the four workshops in the afternoon. For the "Water" photo walk, the Friends of the Bayfield River Valley (FOBR) will be partnering with the FFF. During the walk, that will take place alongside Bayfield River and Lake Huron, participants will be able to put their newfound skills into action under the guidance of Cowie and their FOBR guide Ray Letheren. Letheren, founder and president of the FOBR, said, "We warmly welcome all the Fall Foto Fest photographers to Bayfield.

He went to university (Trinity) and law school (Osgoode Hall) in Toronto, married Isobel Lockhart in Toronto, and practiced law in the city for 43 years. He, with his family, returned to Goderich each summer and always enjoyed visits to Bayfield. When grandfather Lee died in 1944, he and Marion took over the 80 -guest room Sunset Hotel in Goderich, a ten -week operation that was then managed by Marion and her husband, Harold Williams until the hotel was sold in 1958. The Williams lived in Goderich and my parents retired to the town in 1972.

Gotten your hands dirty planting a tree or harvesting the garden you planted? 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. This year marks the 60th anniversary of Girl Guides in Bayfield so members both new and returning should have a lot to celebrate. 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 becoming 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 the second and fourth 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. 17. All girls in these age groups are invited to come out and see if Guiding would be of interest to them. Pathfinders and Rangers will have their first meeting on Sept. 25. And again anyone interested in joining is welcome to attend to learn more about what being a senior member of Guiding is all about. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezelWeek361ssue2l7/tabid/629/Default.aspx 9/13 5/31/2019 Week 36 Issue 217 On March 18 members of Bayfield Guiding toured Ice Cultures in Hensall. A highlight of the tour was time in the Iceculture Experience, an ice lounge designed and built especially for plant tours. (Submitted photo) The Bayfield Guiding year ended with a special advancement to kick off their 60th anniversary celebrations.

I know how devastated I would be if I lost any of them as they are truly one -of -a -kind and were given with love. So when I received an email last week from a Subscriber who had lost her engagement ring and wedding band while visiting the beach recently I knew I needed to help in the best way I could by telling my readers about her plight. The rings were lost on the beach off Gendron Drive in Bluewater the access is close to the Zurich-Hensall Rd. The ring was a solitaire in a unique setting in two-tone gold. The wedding band was 14kt gold with a channel of 13 diamonds. Melody Falconer -Pounder Looking for a diamond among grains of sand may seemingly be an impossible task but if anyone should have the good fortune to stumble upon this treasure know there is a lady hoping against hope to get them back. If anyone does discover these rings or hears of anyone who has please send me an email and I will do my best to coordinate a reunion. - Melody Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
