FUNDRAISING EVENT The stage for " Klahanie Under the Stars" was set by the talented members of the Beta Sigma Phi Sorority in Goderich. Camp Klahanie in its more than 40 year history has never looked so pretty - enhancing the magic that can be found there - now for grown ups too! (Photo by Melody Falconer -Pounder) On the evening of Sept. 13, the rain ended, the wind died down and as night fell the stars emerged in the sky — three weather related factors that aided in the success of "Klahanie Under the Stars". This fundraising event for the Goderich Lions Club's Camp Klahanie was billed as an opportunity to relive those magical days at camp with the added treats only afforded to grown ups and it did not disappoint. The Bayfield Farmers' Market is hosting a "Souper Douper Fundraiser" this Friday, Sept. 26. From 3-5 p.m. visitors to the market in Clan Gregor Square will have the opportunity to purchase homemade soup and a biscuit. Five local chefs will be offering a soup they created using produce and meats from the market. The participating chefs are from Truly Local Food Cart, Charles St. Market, Black Dog Pub and Bistro, Dock's Restaurant and Hessenland Country Inn. The soups will be sold for $6 each or four servings for $20. Takeout will be available. Proceeds from the event will go to support market operations. TOWN HALL "Non-stop Slam! Bam! Action!" is promised at the next musical event to be held at the Bayfield Town cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/week39issue273/tabid/687/Default.aspx 1/9 5/31/2019 week 39 Issue 273 The over 80 guests began their camp experience with a ride on a "people mover' from the parking area on Black's Point Road to the eight acre camp property. The transportation device originated from Vancouver's Expo '86 and was graciously loaned by Harry Brindley, of Dungannon. The visitors to the camp were then treated to a fabulous menu with a beef on a bun barbecue sponsored by the Huron County Beef Producers and Dempster's Breads. Wonderful sides — like sweet potato fries and pasta salad and scrumptious "Death by Chocolate" dessert rounded out the meal and most ingredients were generously donated by area businesses. And if anyone was still hungry a Trail Mix bar, freshly popped popcorn and S'more fixings, for roasting on one of four campfires, were available throughout the night. A highlight of the evening was a live auction that included a VIA Rail trip for two from Stratford, ON to Quebec City. Lois and Glenn Hayter, of Varna, were the successful bidders on this item valued at more than $1,000. The Camp Klahanie Board of Directors is greatly appreciative of VIA Rail Canada for their generosity in donating this prize to the camp's ongoing revitalization.

Richard Lobb was the auctioneer for a live auction event that included a VIA Rail trip for two from Stratford, ON to Quebec City. Glenn and Lois Hayter, of Varna, were the successful bidders on this item valued at more than $1,000. The Camp Klahanie Board of Directors is greatly appreciative of VIA Rail Canada for their generosity in donating this prize to the camp's ongoing revitalization. There were also more than fifty silent auction items to bid on all generously donated. Some wonderful experience opportunities were included such as, admission for four to the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto and a year-long, family membership to Fanshawe Pioneer Village. In keeping with the camp theme, marvelous acoustic music was provided by three stellar musical acts including: Andre Vandenburg, Dan Ward and Scott Campbell as well as the headliners for the evening, The Blacklist Social. The Board is also deeply indebted to the Beta Sigma Phi Sorority Exemplar of Goderich who adopted "Klahanie Under the Stars" as a project. In some rather adverse weather conditions they gave the camp property the black tie treatment creating a beautiful ambience for the attendees to enjoy. And as "Klahanie Under the Stars" proved to live up to its name participants got to view the constellations close up thanks to members of the Royal Astronomical Society of London who were in attendance with their very large telescopes. Some guests even got a clear view of Saturn setting, something that Klahanie's youth campers would be jealous of! Fun was to be had in every direction for the more than 80 folks who attended the "Klahanie Under the Stars" fundraising evening on Sept. 13. (Photo by Melody Falconer -Pounder) Hall on Oct. 11.

(Photo by Melody Falconer -Pounder) In total about $9,000 was raised for Camp Klahanie's ongoing revitalization. And now the Board of Directors is looking forward to their next fundraising opportunity. Starting on Sept. 29 until Oct. 13 the camp will be entered into the first round of the AVIVA Community Fund. The camp made it to the Semi -Finals in the 2013 competition but finished just out of the money. This time around the Goderich Lions Club membership is hoping that the community will once again rally around the camp in an effort to win funds for the creation of co-ed washrooms and showers for the property. Voting is easy but once is not enough it must be done daily! The goal is to garner enough early support to make it into the top 15 in the first round thus advancing directly to the semi-finals. All that is required to vote is an email address and a password. To register to vote visit: hftps://www.avivacommunityfund.org/ideas/acfl 9522. Facebook users have it even easier as they can sign up via their account to vote. To receive daily Facebook voting reminders be sure to join the "Goderich Lions Club - Camp Klahanie Revitalization" group page.

This year the event is being held at "The Barn" at the Exeter Golf Club. Paula Letheren, of Bayfield, has been a winner at both previous shows. So area artists, or budding artists, are encouraged to entering their work in the show, please check the website www.artaroundtown.net for the entry form and rules. QMTS NEEDED On April 16-18, 2015 the Exeter Quilt Show will be held at Trivitt Church. The committee is now seeking the help of the surrounding communities to collect quilts made before 1960. Organizers note that the older the quilts are the better and condition is not critical. They realize that heritage quilts are not usually in mint condition. They have been used and loved. If the quilts have a story to accompany them, that is even better. Vintage hats will be displayed throughout the venue and they plan to have a few mirrors for those who want to try on a few for pictures. The committee is hoping to have 85-90 quilts for the display. To learn more contact Bonnie Sitter by email at bonnie.sitter@gmail.com. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/week391ssue273/tabid/687/Default.aspx 3/9 5/31/2019 week 39 Issue 273 One of the organization's fundraisers is the sale of Christmas wreaths made from local grapevines and evergreens. Some members are already cutting grapevines and making the grapevine bases. If there are yew, juniper, cedar, spruce, or white pine prunings available, call Don Brodie at 519 263-2404 to see if they could be used for the wreath making. The sale of wreaths helps to cover some of the costs of the fair and volunteers are always welcome to participate in their creation. LAST UWE FOR SEPTEMBER TO BE HELD ON VARNA NATURE TRAILS September is one of the best months of the year for hiking. The slightly cooler weather and fewer mosquitoes make walking the trails more pleasurable. Trees and plants have just begun their wonderful display of rich fall colors and the mushroom families are showing off an amazing variety of shape, size and hue. The Varna Nature Trails: Mavis' Trail and the Taylor Trail will be featured on the next BRVTA hike to be held on Sept. 25 at 9 a.m. This hike will begin at the Stanley Complex, just west of the village of Varna. The trails meander through planted fir trees and deciduous woods towards the Bayfield River, where there is a marvelous scenic spot, before looping around and hiking back to the starting point. This is a Level 2 hike taken at a casual to moderate pace and should be one hour and fifteen minutes in duration. The hike leaders will be Roberta Stemp, 519 565-2777; Pat Baker, 519 565-4015; and Pam Bowers, 519 565-4506. VHS RUN4IIDS SET FOR SATURDAY As all communities recognize the importance of good physical health, many are finding that combining outdoor activities with charitable events adds extra incentive to get involved. One local event, the Virtual High School (VHS) Run4Kids held in Bayfield, stands out as a family and fun oriented 5 KM road run/walk with an emphasis on community and education. This year, the VHS Run4Kids Walk/Run will be held on Sept. 27 at 9 a.m. All proceeds from this event will be donated to Childcan. Childcan is a non-profit organization that supports children undergoing cancer treatment. Children often find that during and after cancer treatment, they fall behind in regular classes and sometimes are unable to move forward with their classmates and friends. In some cases, the treatment causes developmental problems that prevent some children from proceeding at a regular pace. Virtual High School courses offer a flexible alternative and pair students with an Ontario College of Teachers teacher for support. Funds raised from this event ensure teacher payments while all course and administrative fees are provided to these students free of charge. Local musicians will perform during the event and a post -race yoga session will be held in the spacious side yard at VHS. Unique gifts for participants and volunteers have generously been donated by a variety of merchants and services from Bayfield, Goderich, and the surrounding area. Now in its second year, the VHS Run4Kids promises to be another event in which participants can reach their personal best and have their results immediately available on the Run4Kids website and on Road raceresuIts. com. Or, they may choose to complete the 5 KM course at a leisurely pace, to take what promises to be a pleasant walk with friends and family through one of Ontario's finest communities while supporting deserving children facing health challenges as they continue their education. For further information and to register to participate or volunteer for the event, check the race website at hftp://www.vhsrun4kids.com/.

About 50 people braved rainy weather to attend the official opening of the Reading Garden located behind the Bayfield Hertiage Center and Archives, including Jill and Bill Carradine and Philip Keightley, all of Bayfield. PHOTOS BY GARY LLOYD-REES Despite the rainy cold weather, nearly 50 people attended the official opening of the Reading Garden on Sept. 13. Many in attendance were donors to the project. On behalf of the Friends of Bayfield Library (FOBL), Roma Harris thanked the donors, community partners and those who contributed to the Garden design. The construction of the new library, in combination with the Archives and Bayfield Historical Society's (BHS) use of the old library building, has provided an exciting new focus for civic life in the village. Whenever it is open, the new library is very busy and the displays and programs organized by the BHS are very popular with community members as well as visitors to the area. In the summer, the outdoor space on the site of the two buildings has a particularly valuable role to play. To optimize the use of the space, FOBL, in collaboration with the BHS, took forward a proposal to Bluewater Council in January 2013, to design and build a sustainable, attractive outdoor garden that would provide a restful place to read and take advantage of the Library's WIFI service, as well as a shady green area to host historical exhibits and children's programming. "We obtained approval from the Council for a site plan, developed by local master gardeners Susan Beatty and Leigh Salk, and undertook a fundraising campaign to cover the costs of the project. We have been overwhelmed by the support we've received from the community," said Roma Harris, of the FOBL. "With the generous support of the donors to the project we have been able to level and sod the site, plant several large shade trees, install a bricked patio and rock garden, and install a metal screen built by sculptor, Jim Wallace. In addition, we have purchased a number of attractive metal benches cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/week391ssue273/tabid/687/Default.aspx 6/9 5/31/2019 week 39 Issue 273 Blacksmith Jim Wallace of Sharp's Creek Forge, was commissioned by the Friends of the Bayfield Library to create the metal screen that separates the garden from the parking area at the rear of the library. What began as an idea in the winter of 2013 has evolved into the Friends of the Bayfield Library Reading Garden. As the trees and plantings grow it is sure to become a favorite place for visitors to the Library as well as the Bayfield Heritage Center and Archives. 2018-19 fi6J61O N BAYFIELD FINANCUIL G'7.C11P1tiG PIMLATED - IMAGE OF THE WEEK to provide seating on the patio." As the new trees settle in and grow to provide some much-needed shade and as the plants in the rock garden mature and fill in the foreground of the screen, it is felt that the garden will become more and more beautiful. "The members of our community as well as visitors to Bayfield who find their way to the Garden will be able to enjoy this restful oasis for decades to come," concluded Harris.

She was a well-known business owner on Main Street for many years along with her husband Richard. Bayfield was her second love — her husband her first. Bayfield resident, Ray Letheren and I were recently reminiscing about Sarah and both of us came to the conclusion that an appropriate tribute would be to plant a tree in her honor. Our first thought was to plant a tree near The Village Guild Shoppes but we have since learned that the Bayfield Tree Project is holding off planting there due to the hope that the Main Street Revitalization Project might one day come to fruition and influence where new trees should be planted. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/week39issue273/tabid/687/Default.aspx 8/9 5/31/2019 Melody Falconer -Pounder week 39 Issue 273 There is, however, the option of having one planted in Clan Gregor Square.
