VISION HEALTH MONTH When was the last time your child had their teddy bear's vision tested? Regular eye examinations are an important part of your child's eye health and if the appointment would be made easier with teddy by their side then Main Street Optometric in Bayfield welcome them as well. And in the process your child's school can benefit too. October is Vision Health Month, and to promote healthy vision and overall well-being Main Street Optometric is continuing their program started in 2011 involving local schools.

Rain over the weekend didn't prevent some of those people entered in the 36th Annual Joe Brandon Memorial Rainbow Trout Fishing Derby from coming up with creative ways to stay dry and comfortable while waiting for the big one to bite. Several fishermen chose to wade into the Bayfield River in their quest for the heaviest trout PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER The 36th Annual Joe Brandon Memorial Rainbow Trout Derby, organized by the Bayfield Lions' Club featured a mixed bag of weather and fishing — Friday was great, Saturday miserable and Sunday not too shabby. When the competition closed at noon on Sunday, Oct. 19 there were 33 trout, three salmon and two other varieties of fish listed on the board. In 2012, over 70 fish were caught while in 2013 only 13 trout made it on to a fisherman's line — in both cases the weather played key roles in how well the fish cooperated. The top three prizes for the heaviest Rainbow Trout went to: first, Ryan DaSilva, 8.76 lbs., $800; last year's winner, Daryl Howard, of London, took second place with a fish weighing 8.32 lbs., $400; third went to Craig Oost, 8.20 lbs., $300. Tyler Miner caught the biggest Salmon. It weighed in at 8.22 lbs. Aaron Pigg, aged 9 years of Goderich, took the Eric Earle Memorial Award for youth 14 years and under. His Trout weighed in at 4.43 lbs. The Bill Thorpe Memorial Award for youth aged 15 to 19 was not given out this year. All participants who got a fish on the board as well as youth participants were invited to select a prize graciously donated by local merchants.

Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead No truer words were ever spoken and no better thoughts to keep in mind than at municipal election time. I won't expound the virtues of how lucky we are to live in a country where we are free to express our opinion at the ballot box. The frustrations of the growing rural urban divide so evident in the results of our most recent provincial election aside we need to all share in the decision of who governs in our own municipalities. So don't forget to vote — in Central Huron you can vote online or by phone cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/week431ssue277/tabid/691 /Default.aspx 9/10 5/31/2019 Melody Falconer -Pounder week -43 Issue -277 until 7:59 p.m. on Oct. 27. In Bluewater it is a mail in campaign. The deadline to mail in was Oct. 18. So if the form is still sitting on your kitchen table fill it out and drive it to the Bluewater Municipal Office in Zurich anytime between now and 7:59 p.m. on Election Day. So does this modern way of voting seem a little foreign? I quite like making time to go the polling station, standing in line and casting my vote at the ballot box on Election Day. But I'm open to change. After all if it increases the number of voters who cast their votes than it will prove to be a positive change. But I'm keeping with a little tradition and not phoning in my vote until Oct. 27. But vote I will — hope you do too. — Melody Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
