Communities in Bloom Ontario recognized these efforts within the rural and urban communities of Bluewater on Sept. 13, by honoring Bluewater with a Five Blooms Award, a Tidiness Award and a special mention nod toward heritage conservation. "I'm so excited, I can hardly breathe," remarked Chair Kay Wise as announcements for Bluewater surfaced first for both award sections on a roster of Ontario municipalities including South Huron, Chatham -Kent, Gravenhurst, Greater Napanee, and newcomer Central Huron. Bluewater delegates noted the overall score was 85.5 per cent, a three per cent increase from last year. Bluewater has earned a second invitation to the Canada -wide competition. "Most noticeable is the industrial intensification and entrepreneurial activity in the Village of Hensall," noted the judges in their evaluation. "In this small village, there are six major employers of significance. This is likely the most highly concentrated area of employment in all of Huron County. "The repurposing of Zurich Public School by Ivan Bedard should be used as a template as to how to create proper senior's housing throughout the County... Special mention must be made of the future plans for the Hensall Opera House and the Hay Township Hall. Both projects have the support of the politicians and eager groups of volunteers who are going to make it happen." Community groups were represented during a two-day tour of Bluewater in late July. Those representatives of service clubs, volunteer organizations and Master Gardeners are credited for creating lasting impressions with the Blooms judges. The tour reflected points collected in a book of community accomplishments and included the villages as well as the hamlets of Brucefield, St. Joseph and Varna. "Achieving the highest award from Communities in Bloom for the second year in a row is a fantastic achievement and the whole community can be proud. I am proud of the committee and all the volunteers who worked hard to achieve this success," stated Bluewater co-chair Jim Fergusson. "The Municipality was also awarded the winner of the tidiness category award. Each resident, business and public space contributed to winning this award showing our community pride and what a great place we live in. Special mention also goes to Municipal staff for the high level of care to our streets and public parks this is their award for a job well done." Blooms Judges Lynda Rotteau and Myles Murdock remarked on programs reflecting this pride, "Farm landscapes and the buildings are well maintained and each village has volunteers who ensure the cleanliness of the streets and parks. The introduction of the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup is a wonderful way to protect and enhance our beaches ... This will create a legacy for our young people to appreciate the vulnerability of our Lake Huron shoreline." A community can win one of eight awards for criteria from which marks are combined for the overall bloom award. Last year, Bluewater won the Heritage Conservation Award along with its first Five Blooms Award. Judges Rotteau and Murdock noted the ongoing heritage conservation effort was evident in the new municipal heritage resources registry unveiled by the Bluewater Heritage Advisory Committee at the Hay Township Hall in Zurich. Each year, communities throughout the province elect to participate in the Communities in Bloom program. Bluewater has participated since 2010. For the 2014 program, the planning committee built upon initiatives introduced in its 2013 Strive for Five Program including the creation of a civic flower that the judges praised in their evaluation. The Bluewater Blooms Committee has plans to use the daylily as an official symbol. The Bluewater planning committee is comprised of representatives of municipal council, merchants and community volunteer organizations.

His work is also forthcoming in Contempory Verse 2. He is a contributing editor for Misunderstandings Magazine, and an active member/co-host of The Vagabond Trust Reading Series.

In addition to "FiberFloor" being installed on all stairs and the entrance floor, the walls have been upgraded and painted along with the trim, using a new series of colors that are also being used in the main hall facelift. (Photo by Gary Lloyd -Rees) main hall refurbishment. Bayfield Town Hall is getting a well-deserved facelift! The Town Hall Board of Directors is very excited to announce that it has been awarded an Ontario Trillium Grant to complete much needed work to the interior front entrance, as well as upgrades to the main hall. Work is already underway and we are pleased to report that the front entrance refurbishment is now complete. The Board members are thrilled with the results. The Board has been concerned for some time about the safety of the entrance floor and stairs when wet, especially during the winter months. Cleaning was also a problem, with the area always looking shabby, much to the chagrin of the custodian and potential renters. Repainting was becoming a regular occurrence, only to see wear and tear return very quickly. In addition to "FiberFloor" being installed on all stairs and entrance floor, the walls have been upgraded and painted along with the trim, using a new series of colors that are being used in the Painting is ongoing in the main hall, with the painter and his team working wonders around the rental schedule. The Board extends a huge thank you to the participants of Tuesday's yoga class, who are being very patient and understanding while classes are held at the Arena to accommodate the painting schedule. The Town Hall has also received a very generous donation specifically for the replacement of the stage curtains. The measurements have been taken, fabric chosen and in six weeks they will be installed. According to Sandy Scotchmer, president of the board, the new stage curtains will be the icing on the cake! She also noted why change could be a good thing. "Unfortunately, the Town Hall is starting to look a little tired and it's time to treat this wonderful old gal to a well deserved facelift. She does get lots of visitors from the village and area, after all," Scotchmer explained. "The Board realized it was time to take on the refurbishment work, as more potential rentals enquire if the Town Hall has plans to paint at some point." Town Hall rentals provide much needed income to help cover yearly operating costs and, with this in mind, the Board reviewed all areas of concern throughout the building, obtained cost approximations and began the grant application process at the start of 2014. "Receiving an Ontario Trillium Grant for refurbishment, gives the village the opportunity to enjoy a new updated Town Hall and allows the Board to increase its rental income base by presenting a fresh new look that still enhances the beautiful gal that the Town Hall has become over the years," said Scotchmer. "The Town Hall is certainly appreciating her "Facelift - she loves the paint!" If there are questions about the refurbishment, please contact Scotchmer at 519 565-2830. CANDIDATES TO ANSWER FOUR QUESTIONS AT MEETING Stuart Asher took "closest to the line". Kim Coughlin and Chad Grant were recognized for having the longest drives.

The event hosted by the Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA) featured local bird expert, Roger Goddard, who was hoping to increase participants' knowledge of native birds in the area but alas, due to the time of day, we only saw one chickadee and heard one crow. He did, however, point out holes in a tree that were made by yellow belly sapsuckers. According to Goddard, the sap that oozes from these holes attracts hummingbirds in the spring, before the blooms arrive on other plants. Hikers did see a plant called Jewelweed in full bloom and it is also a source of food for hummingbirds. Jewelweed is a medicinal plant. The sap of the stems is thought to relieve Poison Ivy itch and has fungicidal properties that can be used to treat athlete's foot. Participants were happy to see that the Monarch butterflies were evident on several areas of the trail landing on the Goldenrod flowers and Milkweed plants adding to the fall show of color. It is good to know that these insects are still migrating in spite of the habitat The decaying trees were full of different fungi. Two interesting ones were Horse's Hoof and Turkey Tails. They both derive their names from their looks. Horse's Hoof Fungus is parasitic on the Silver Birch and is also sometimes seen infesting the European Beech and is an indication the tree is dying. Turkey tail fungus has medicinal properties and can be used to increase the immune system in humans. sign also lists the water quality goals of the watershed plans created by those two communities. The sign facing the trailhead shows ways that local people can help to preserve soil, limit erosion, and keep sediment and pollutants out of creeks, rivers, and Lake Huron. That sign includes a sample local watershed and some of the stewardship practices being used locally. The two new signs have been made possible thanks to the Rural Stormwater Management Model (RSWMM) Project. For more information visit ru ra I stormwater. com.

Themed "Ghosts, Murder, and Mayhem on the Heritage Trail", it was organized by the Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA) and led by Dave Gillians. (Photo by Jack Pal) Dave Gillians became somewhat ghost like himself the farther into the walk he went as the leader of the "Ghosts, cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/week381ssue272/tabid/686/Default.aspx 10/13 5/31/2019 MM t,,aill -,Wept optometric Q. . -.r.,, u �. v.

I share in his love for learning letters, making words and reading. I enjoy that he delights in exploring nature, checking out insects and throwing lots of stones into any sized body of water. I love it when he discovers something knew with a great big animated, "Wow". I've built towers to the sky and watched his delight in robustly knocking them to the ground. I've learned about all the trains in Thomas world and am now developing knowledge about those colorful characters known as Super Heroes. But most of all I have enjoyed watching him interact with his Grandpa. They've got something really special going on between them. So a few months ago when we received the call that Graham's expected sibling was more than likely going to be a girl I got a little teary. I sat on one end of the phone and quietly absorbed the news. A little girl..."Wow"...what wonders will we be able to share with her and learn from her? About a week ago we headed to the big city for our first official introduction to Noelle Elizabeth Pounder, she, like her big brother before her, instantly stole my heart and I look forward to watching her grow and learn just like he has. Welcome to the world Noelle! — Gramel Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
