CHURCH ON THE WAY AIDS KENYANS
ONE BRICK AT A TIT"
HISTORICAL SOCIETY
Bayfield is in for a treat and a good laugh. Paul
Nichol is coming to town as a speaker for the
Bayfield Historical Society on June 23. His subject
will be his grandfather, Jack Thynne, who wrote for
The Brussels Post and traveled through Ontario
doing humorous monologues and playing his fiddle at
country fairs, carnivals and weddings for many years.
Thynne wrote and performed under the name The
Kansas Farmer (known as "TKF"), recounting
humorous stories about his fellow townspeople in
Brussels. He wasn't afraid to use the actual names of
his subjects and tell risque truths about their
adventures. Even so, he was a beloved member of
the community - Brussels' own Stephen Leacock.
Nichol loves to tell the stories and read the columns
written by his grandfather to folks in communities like
Bayfield. It should be an entertaining and fun evening
starting at 7:30 p.m. in the Bayfield Lions' Community
Building.

The Pastors of the Church on the Way, Brian and Helen Harvey recently visited Kenya to learn about a church
building project using a brick making machine. In each area a project manager will be assigned to make sure
the soil etc. is in the right proportions so that the bricks will be secure. (Submitted photos)
Brian and Helen Harvey, pastors at the Church on the Way in Bayfield recently spent two
weeks in Africa.
"Brian and I had the privilege of being sent to Kenya, by our church plus others who
contributed. Some of the areas we visited included Nairobi, Kisii and Ndhawa," said Helen
Harvey.
The Harveys were sent on an exploratory mission of sorts to see a brick making machine, that
had been donated a year before, brought into operation. They were also there to explore the
needs of the churches.
"A brick making machine was donated for all the churches in the Bethel Outreach Ministries to
be used for building churches. Many of the churches we visited meet under trees. It is our hope
that the machine will be used to make interlocking bricks that will soon construct a building,"
said Harvey.
The brick making machine was on display at the Nyamokenya Church in the Kisii area of Kenya.
They learned that it should take approximately $500 for each church to start making bricks.
Men are hired to dig the rich, red soil, then, cement and water are added. To complete the
The Bayfield Town Hall Heritage Society is hosting a
"One of a Kind Show" on July 5.
The Bayfield Town Hall will be the venue for artists
and craftspeople to showcase their own work. There
will be space for around 16 vendors and this may
include a nice mix of overlapping mediums but as
everything is handmade those who attend can be
assured all will be different and one of a kind.
The event will run from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Set-up
for vendors is 8:30 a.m. Admittance to the show is by
donation with the proceeds going to the ongoing
improvements of the town hall.
AT THE GALLERIES...
The next First Friday's Artist Walk will coincide with
the launch of a new exhibit of original work by artist
Carolyn Hurd, of Zurich. On the evening of July 4,
"The Beauty of Bayfield" will showcase Hurd's
amazing ability to capture Bayfield scenes and
architecture with the stroke of a brush.
The event will be held at JMR Gallery starting at 6
p.m. Refreshments will be served and the artist will
be in attendance.
Limited Edition prints of several of the images will
also be available as well as a second series of "The
Black Dog" giclee print.
THANK YOU RECEPTION
Although many may not realize it, the people of
Bayfield and Bluewater are witnessing the end of an
era. Dr. Charles Wallace and Maggie Visscher will be
retiring from the active practice of medicine at the
end of June. With that will end a medical career that
has lasted close to 60 years and a medical
partnership of close to 40 years.
As they retire, Dr. Wallace and Visscher should know
that they have touched many lives and have truly
made an immeasurable difference to so many.
The Zurich and District Chamber of Commerce is
hosting a Thank You Reception in honor of Dr.
Charles Wallace on June 28 from 1:30-4 p.m. at the
Bluewater Complex in Zurich. A special presentation
will be made at 2:30 p.m. To learn more visit the
event Facebook page — "Thank you Reception for Dr.
Charles Wallace".

construction tools and supplies are necessary such as hoes, shovels, picks, wheelbarrows,
cement and oil. Nails, hammers, plastic sheeting and lumber are also needed to build shelters
to keep the soil and bricks dry.
"They are interlocking bricks so no mortar is needed to hold them together," said Harvey.
"There is plenty of red soil that can be dug up, sifted and dried out. Twenty wheelbarrows of
soil plus cement and water will make about 400 bricks in just a few hours. A church could be
built in a very short time. Then the machine would go to the next church."
This photo was taken at the Nyemakenya Church in the Kisii area. The bricks were shown to the
congregation as an example of what is to come.

This storybook immortalized Bayfield in the 1970s. Both the art and words contained within are just one
example of the work being sought for a small coffee table book that reflects the village's "unique spirit"
through artistic and written images across the decades. (Submitted photo)
Barbara Brown and Joyce Lambert, both of Bayfield, are embarking on a new project on behalf
of the Bayfield Historical Society (BHS). The pair is in the process of creating a small coffee
table book that reflects the village's "unique spirit" through artistic and written images across
the decades.
And both Brown and Lambert feel that there are probably many Bayfield themed poems and
pieces of art out there, perhaps tucked away in a trunk in the family cottage or even hanging on
a wall in someone's living room.
"We would like to challenge people in the community to look around their homes and cottages
to find these hidden treasures of art and written pieces that capture the spirit of Bayfield to
share them with us," said Lambert.
People are invited to bring a good quality photo or a good copy of their treasures to the
Bayfield Archives from 1-4 p.m. on the next two long weekend Saturdays of the summer—
June 28 and Aug. 2. They should also include related information as well as the name of the
author or artist and the year the work was created.
"The work has to be about Bayfield but the artist or author does not have be from Bayfield,"
said Brown.
All art mediums are welcome including, paintings, postcard drawings, photographs, folk -art,
sculpture, poems and quotes.
"We are delighted to receive images and copies of treasures for consideration but we can not
guarantee all of them will be used in the book due to space constraints," said Brown.
Anyone who is unable to attend on the collection Saturdays is welcome to email Brown at
bd brown @tcc.on.ca or Lambert at lambertjoyce@gmail.com to make alternate arrangements
to share their potential contribution.
STUDENTS SOUGHT FOR
The Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA)
has two hikes planned each month during the
summer and up until October on the second Sunday
afternoon and the fourth Thursday morning. The next
hike will be held on Thursday, June 26 at 9 a.m. in
the Naftel's Creek Conservation Area.
Naftel's Creek, a trail loved by so many, leads
through mixed conifer plantations, hardwood and
wetland areas. It is a rewarding place to spend time,
a rich area to explore at any time of the year, a
relaxing walk, suitable for everyone in the family. This
is a Level 1 hike, a leisurely pace and will take about
an hour to complete. Participants are asked to meet
at the Naftel's Creek Trail parking lot. Watch carefully
for the entrance to the conservation area as it is not
obvious from the highway.
The hike leaders will be Elise Feltrin, 519 565-5852
and Carol Powadiuk 519 565-4120.
Generally dogs on leash are welcome but it is always
best to check with the hike leader. The usual meeting
site will be Clan Gregor Square unless specified
otherwise and car-pooling will be arranged from
there. All hikers are reminded to wear proper shoes
and bring water. It's a good idea to wear long pants
and take insect repellent along in case it is needed.
Anyone with questions concerning specific hikes or
who would like to make suggestions, call one of the
hike leaders or contact the program coordinator, by
email thyra.knudsen@gmail.com or phone 519 606-
0016.
The First Friday's Art Walk Committee would like to
add more music to the monthly experience and are
now seeking musical buskers to perform on Main
Street on the first Friday of the month.
The idea behind this Bayfield and Area Chamber of
Commerce initiative is that people can enjoy an
evening of art by walking the Main Street as artists
showcase their work in a number of locations. Each
artist will have their own exhibition and will be
available to talk to and explain their art. Snacks and
refreshments will be served and music will be offered
as well.
The next First Friday's Artwalk will be held on July 4.
Organizers note that attendees should be on the
lookout for balloon markers to denote the exhibits.
Anyone interested in offering musical entertainment
should contact Leanne Kavanagh by email at
leanne-108@hotmail.com.

FOR CALENDAR
The Bayfield Calendar will once again be a joint project
Terry Boyle of the Bayfield LionsClub and the Photography Club of
Bayfield (PCoB). Last year's 2014 calendar was so
successful that it was sold out well before year's end. As a result, more calendars will be made
available this year starting with the official launch on Aug. 16, coinciding with the Bayfield Fall
Fair,
The calendar committee is looking for more photos from both PCoB members and members of
the public. People need not be a member of any photography club in order to participate.
Winning photographers get the choice of a free membership to the PCoB for 2015, or $50 and,
of course, bragging rights if one or more of their photos is selected for the calendar.
Photos should be recognizably Bayfield, and surroundings, through the four seasons and
special consideration will be given to those photos that have a heritage aspect to them. Photos
should be in 8 x 12 landscape format and a minimum of six Mega Pixels in size to assure
quality reproduction.

INNOVATIVE DESIGN
Instead of the traditional cutting of the ribbon new LCBO stores are celebrated with the popping of corks and the
twisting of caps. Raising a toast with some VQA sparkling wine and Ontario craft beer are I -r: Mayor of
Bluewater Bill Dowson, Bayfield LCBO Store Manager, Paul Parsons, Regional Director, Mike O'Reilly and Wayne
Smith, co-chair of the Perth -Huron United Way. During the toasting, O'Reilly invited everyone in attendance to
continue an LCBO tradition of buying at least one bottle to bring the store good luck as well as to help pay for it!
At 9:30 a.m. on Thursday, lune 12 the new Bayfield LCBO store opened for business at 71 Main Street South.
Mike O'Reilly, LCBO regional director, Western Region (far right), noted that the Bayfield staff reflect and
support the values of the LCBO customers and the Bayfield community. The staff include Carla Chapman, Kelly
Collins, Sheri Hughes and Store Manager, Paul Parsons.
PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY
FALCONER -POUNDER
On the morning of June 12, Bayfield's LCBO store
moved south to new digs adjacent to the Bayfield
Foodland Store that opened two weeks prior.
"So this is what 5,100 square feet looks like. What
do you think?" asked Patti Davis, LCBO district
manager. The answer came as a tremendously
enthusiastic round of applause from the small
crowd of dignitaries and guests that had gathered
inside the store for the official opening.
The new store offers 3,200 square feet of display
space and is 50 per cent larger than the old store.
It carries an expanded selection of more than
1,100 wines, spirits, beers, ready -to -drink
cocktails and coolers.
A new feature that Mike O'Reilly, LCBO regional
director for the Western Region, is quite proud of
is the large walk-in cold room with more than 370
linear feet of shelf space. This room is stocked
with beer, including Ontario craft beers as well as
cocktails and coolers.
"This cold room features an innovative free air
system, which uses outside air for cooling for
several months of the year. This provides
significant environmental benefits and reduces
utility use and costs," said O'Reilly.
Davis named a number of people and businesses
responsible for the creation of the new store
including the LCBO Store Development and Real
Estate and the Marketing and Customer Insights
teams. Project Coordinator, Torin McMullen, and
her set up team were given special mention as
were Jason Killingsworth and Chris Youngman for
their project leadership.
External partners in the construction were: Fiorino
Design, designer; IBI, architect; Verly
Construction Group, general contractor; and the
landlord, Sobeys Inc.
Davis also recognized the Bayfield store's staff
including Store Manager Paul Parsons and
Customer Service Representatives, Sheri
Hughes, Carla Chapman, and Kelly Collins, along
with summer staff, Theresa Wanklin and Brianne
Higenell. The store will employ four full-time and
four part-time employees.
"Our Bayfield staff reflect and support the values
of our customers and the Bayfield community,"
said O'Reilly. "Our employees are trained to help
keep alcohol out of the hands of minors and
adults who appear intoxicated, and help
customers make smart, responsible choices. In

Almost 200 Ontario wines are available , including 100 VQA products.
2012-13, LCBO staff challenged more than 7.8
million people who were underage or appeared
intoxicated and refused service to more than
322,000 - 84 per cent because they were
underage."
O'Reilly added that LCBO staff also care about
their communities and participate in local
fundraising.
"In 2012-13, with generous contributions from our
customers, we raised an incredible $6.6 million
for worthy causes," said O'Reilly.
One such worthy cause is the United Way. Wayne
Smith, co-chair of the Perth -Huron United Way
was a special guest at the opening.
"The LCBO is a significant and growing partner in
our campaign," said Smith. "We appreciate the
generous donations of their employees as well as
the customers who are encouraged to donate at
the till."
"I am proud to say that we raised more than $3
million across Ontario in our last United Way
campaign, with customer donations staying local
to the support United Way chapters like Perth -
Huron," said O'Reilly.
Mayor of Bluewater Bill Dowson was also a
special guest at the opening. He acknowledged
that Bayfield Ward Councilor Geordie Palmer and
Bluewater CAO Steve McAuley were also in
attendance.
Dowson noted that it was a double pleasure for
him to be asked to the festivities that followed so
closely behind the opening of the grocery store
just two weeks earlier.
"I don't think there is another village in Ontario
that can boast such growth in its residences,
people, accommodations and services. The new
store will certainly be a further boost to the
community. I would like to thank the staff for their
service - it is top notch - and I encourage the
people in our area to support this store," said
Dowson.
The Bayfield LCBO offers four checkouts,
including a customer service counter. It has lots of
parking and is wheelchair accessible. The store
located at 71 Main Street South in Bayfield is
open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Wednesday, 10
a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. on
Friday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday, and noon
to 4 p.m. on Sunday.
The store product mix is the result of market
research, matching products and services to local
tastes and demographics, as well as community
interests.

The Pathfinder and the Playfair will be docking in Bayfield Harbour July 12-13. To the common people they are tall ships, to the
more nautical minded they are referred to as brigantines. By definition they are two -masted square-rigged sailing vessels with
fore-and-aft rigged sails on the mainmast.
It's a big deal for our little fishing village — community groups rallied together to raise the $10,000 it cost to bring them here. It is
hoped it will be money well spent for residents and visitors to enjoy. There could very well be up to 10,000 folks lining up to tour
the ships. Where in the world will they all park? Well, the committee has that figured out with parking being organized for
Agriculture Park and shuttle vans provided to bring people down to the pier for the tour. All the money in the world can be
raised and all the plans precisely detailed for such a monumental event but everything will be for "knot" (intentional sailing pun!)
if the volunteers don't step up to help keep the two days running smoothly.
Wayne McKaig is coordinating volunteers for the committee and he would love it if you could donate some time over that two day period or even the day or
two prior when some other preparations need to be made. Please contact him by email - wayne.mckaig@tcc.on.ca.
It has been wonderful to see so many of our community organizations come together to stage this once in a lifetime opportunity - let's put our best face
forward as only Bayfield can! - Melody
