BRVTA INVITES FAMILIES TO THANKSGIVING I-IIIE ON SUNDAY October is one of the most enjoyable months for hiking. The cooler weather brings on the fall colors and the insects are not so ambitious as they were in the summer. Hikers may need water proof footwear now, as the grass is quite wet with dew, in the mornings. Walking outdoors now is comfortable and refreshing and so rewarding. The Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA) hikers invite community members to join them in enjoying autumn. Their next hike will be in celebration of Thanksgiving on Sunday, Oct. 12th. The Varna Nature Trails will be the location for this 1 p.m. family event, an autumn scavenger hunt and hike combined. In addition donations to the local food banks will be accepted at the beginning of the hike. Family hiking tool kits will be introduced during this hike and are available free of charge to families with children who attend. The toolkit will be used as a guideline for the autumn scavenger hunt. Children of all ages are welcome. The BRVTA recently received these toolkits, "Happy Healthy Hiking ... with Kids". They were researched and designed by Gwen Richardson during her contract as Active Transportation Lead with the Sustainable Priorities Job Creation Project; HBDC and assisted by the Huron County Health Unit (HCHU). The kits are designed to be kept in the family backpack, and have a whistle for children and the adult, some surveyor's tape and an emergency blanket, and informative cards highlighting both safety essentials and fun things to do with kids while hiking. Richardson and Laura DeKroon, a Health Promoter with HCHU, are also collaborating on the development of additional resources regarding hiking for the Active Transportation section of the Health Unit's website. Watch for it by mid- October! The hike itself will begin at the Stanley Complex, just west of the village of Varna. Hikers will meander through planted fir trees and deciduous woods towards the Bayfield River, where they will get a good view, before looping around and hiking back to the starting point. This is a Level 2 hike taken at a casual to moderate pace lasting one hour and fifteen minutes. Hikers are asked to meet in the parking lot at the Stanley Complex. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/Week4l Issue275/tabid/689/Default.aspx The Bayfield Agricultural Society (BAS) is gearing up for their annual fall fundraiser, the sale of Christmas wreaths made from local grapevines and evergreens.

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. KNITTING GROUP Knitting 1-2-3 is the new name of the Bayfield knitting group! The name was chosen because the group meets from 1-3 p.m. on the first and third Thursday of the month at the Bayfield Library. The group currently has 16 knitters of various levels. Organizers note that this is a relaxed group and members are welcome to attend when they can and work on whatever project they wish to with other knitting enthusiasts.

It is the goal of the Camp Klahanie Board of Directors to provide bunkhouses and a comfort station on the property to allow for co-ed, accessible longer term camping. Funds from the AVIVA Community Fund would help reach those goals but they are only obtainable if the community votes for the idea - daily until Oct. 13 at noon. (Photo by Melody Falconer -Pounder) Camp Klahanie is now entered in the first round of voting in the AVIVA Community Fund competition for a chance at winning $50,000. There are just six days left to vote as the first round ends on Oct. 13 at noon. In 2013, Camp Klahanie finished 14th in the semi-final round of the AVIVA campaign (top 10 advanced) - although the idea finished just out of the money the committee felt that their participation should be considered a success because it helped the Goderich Lions Club put this magical eight acre property into the hearts and minds of the residents of the community and beyond. To date this round, which started on Sept. 29, voter support continues to grow and the camp is currently in 10th place. The idea needs to remain in the Top 15 to automatically advance to the Semi -Final Round starting Dec. 1. However, the Camp Klahanie AVIVA Committee doesn't want voters to become complacent. As the round draws to a close, ideas will often come from behind and overtake those in the top spots. Supporters need to remember to continue voting everyday and also recruit new people to vote. For almost 40 years Camp Klahanie, located just south of Goderich on Black's Point Road, was a training ground for girls and women to gain an appreciation for nature and the environment while developing leadership and social skills. It served the local community as a Girl Guide Camp from 1973 until it was abruptly closed in 2009. A few of those local girls and women could not let the property go without a fight. The Goderich Lions Club got involved and the property was purchased from Girl Guides of Canada in the summer of 2013 opening the door to new possibilities for the camp. With upgrades and proper facilities the camp could become a training ground for not just girls and women but boys and men as well as people with disabilities. The community is rallying around the project and has been diligently raising funds since the Lions took ownership to improve the property.

The winners will be shared in the next issue of the Bayfield Breeze. Welcome to the Second Annual FALLFOTOFEST PHOTOS BY DENNIS PAL Anyone who was in Bayfield this past weekend would have seen over 100 people all carrying camera gear walking around town, going to and coming from workshops, enjoying lunch at all of our well known dining establishments and generally having a great time. They were all part of the second annual Bayfield Fall Foto Fest created by the Photography Club of Bayfield and cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/Week4l Issue275/tabid/689/Default.aspx 6/11 5/31/2019 Week -41 Issue 275 FFF participants were also introduced to the magical video capabilities of their digital cameras in a workshop held at the Albion Hotel, another FFF sponsor, and run by Troy Shantz of Sarnia, ON. Tom Vogel, another keynote speaker is both storyteller and photographer. He delighted everyone with his sense of well-timed humor and raised an awareness in all participants that great photography does not require a professional sized expensive camera. Bill Hall, along with his wife, Deb, led the theme workshop, "Embrace your Creativity" held at the Bayfield Lions' Community Building. its partner and event sponsor, Photo Tour Trekkers. Participants in this two-day event with the theme, "Embrace your Creativity", came from all parts of Southern Ontario. Many of them arrived early on Friday at the Bayfield Town Hall, hub of the weekend's activities, to take part in the last First Friday Art walk of the year. There they saw on display an exhibition of over 100 absolutely amazing photos, all part of the international Photo Contest that launched the weekend's activities. As one participant said, "Perhaps the finest collection of amateur photography I have ever seen." On Saturday and Sunday, photographers chose from six workshops and enjoyed two keynote speakers representing great learning and sharing opportunities for both expert and novice alike. As Jack Pal, co-chair of the event, said: "The small size of the workshops ensured that there was maximum opportunity for group interaction, one-on-one mentoring and putting new-found learning into practice." One of the keynote speakers, Jo -Anne McArthur, well-known internationally for her defense of animals, provided a serious thought provoking photo essay marrying the business of photography with her passion for animals through imagery. In the words on one of the participants, "Wonderful presentation! Amazing how we can use photography to change the world." The other keynote presenter, Tom Vogel, both storyteller and photographer, while delighting everyone with his sense of well-timed humor, raised an awareness in all participants that great photography does not require a professional sized expensive camera. Most of the photos in his presentation were taken with a simple iPhone. A device most of us are familiar with but have never appreciated as a creative tool. Those fortunate enough to be in his workshop at the Bayfield Library gained a new appreciation for the capabilities of the lowly smart phone and an understanding that the best available camera is the one that you have available - normally your smart phone. Another workshop, "Creative Lighting", taught by Denis Rule from Ottawa, ON, was held in the studio facilities of Virtual High School, one of the FFF sponsors. "We were really fortunate to have such an excellent facility in our community," said Pal. "Without it, this workshop would not have been possible". cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/Week4l Issue275/tabid/689/Default.aspx 7/11 5/31/2019 Week -41 Issue 275 The "Creative Lighting" workshop was taught by Denis Rule from Ottawa, ON, and was held in the studio facilities of Virtual High School, one of the FFF sponsors. The small size of the workshops ensured that there was maximum opportunity for group interaction, one-on- one mentoring and putting new-found learning into practice. Jo -Anne McArthur, was a keynote speaker. She is well-known internationally for her defense of animals. She provided a serious thought provoking photo essay marrying the business of photography with her passion for animals through imagery. Rule gave everyone a look at how to further enhance their photographic creativity through lighting. FFF participants were also introduced to the magical video capabilities of their digital cameras in a workshop held at the Albion Hotel, another FFF sponsor, and run by Troy Shantz of Sarnia, ON. He was able to remove the fear of trying out this largely neglected feature of most cameras and thereby opened up a whole new creative pathway for everyone. The Secret Garden Bed and Breakfast, another sponsor, was the site of the "Photography 101" workshop and was taught by Vanessa Dewson, a returning FFF presenter. Although aimed primarily at novice photographers, this workshop also attracted people who felt their photographic skills needed a tune-up. Bill and Deb Hall were the co -leaders of the theme workshop, "Embrace your Creativity" held at the Bayfield Lions' Community Building. Their over 50 years of combined photographic experience translated beautifully into a very thoughtful and mind opening workshop on how to see differently, stimulate your creativity and take photographic risks. They were also in charge of the Judging Team for the Photo Contest. The final workshop at the town hall was co -led by James Cowie, of Photo Tour Trekkers, the event sponsor, and Nancy McRae who addressed the last and also very important step in the photo - creative story, namely post -processing. This last step is key to taking your image from your camera and turning it into the work of art that it deserves to be. Cowie introduced participants into some of the fundamental initial steps of managing your photo work flow and making simple adjustments to enhance images while McRae showed everyone some of the highly creative possibilities using Photoshop. The workshop offerings appear to have been in good alignment with expectations according to the following post event survey comment: "Loved it - wish I could have taken all six workshops." In fact the whole weekend was seen as a great success to quote yet another two comments: "Had a great weekend - full of information for every level. Enjoyed all presenters and speakers." "Will shout the praises of FFF to everyone I know." The weekend ended on Sunday with a second wine and cheese event and the unveiling of the winning photographs in the photo contest. Since not all of the winners were present at the unveiling, this will be the subject of next week's FFF 2014 story. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/Week4l Issue275/tabid/689/Default.aspx 8/11 5/31/2019 r js F0T0FF S T Week -41 Issue 275 The second annual Bayfield Fall Foto Fest created by the Photography Club of Bayfield and its partner and event sponsor, Photo Tour Trekkers was held on Oct. 4-5 in the village.

After 23 years of officially not living under her roof I decided to take her challenge. Truth be told I never really moved out of my childhood home, well, at least a lot of my stuff didn't. And low in behold in the course of over two decades I seem to have accumulated more stuff in the place where I currently reside. Folks say that purging and doing with less is a liberating feeling. I'm not convinced yet. But I do know that planning for and organizing a future yard sale for a couple causes I believe in is a good incentive. I've started the challenge by sorting through four plastic tubs packed with memories from my school days and my years at the local newspapers - plus I found a few "hope chest" type items that I had put away and forgotten. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/Week4l Issue275/tabid/689/Default.aspx 10/11 5/31/2019 Week -41 Issue 275 You might ask why someone would save a one -dollar Canadian bill folded into the shape of a bowtie by a customer from the first restaurant they ever worked in? But I did. They took the extra time to fold it and present it to me for my excellent service and being a creature of sentiment I never had the heart to unfold it and spend it. You might ask why someone would keep the first item of clothing they purchased with their very own money? Yes, I did. A one-piece, red velvet, vest and culottes set. Okay, I was 12. You might ask why someone would keep the public speaking trophy they won for their speech on the life of Terry Fox written in the year 1981. Well, I did and it's got me wondering if the speech is in another tub somewhere... Wish me luck. I think I'm going to need it. — Melody Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
