The Bayfield Antique Show and Sale is now 30 years
young!
In 1985, the event was first organized as the Bayfield
Antique Fair and Sale. It was, and remains, a
fundraiser for Trinity Anglican Church in Bayfield.
In 2015, the show will be held at the Bayfield Arena,
Aug. 7-9.
The dealers love the show and bring beautiful
antiques and collectibles, big and small, to suit every
taste and pocketbook. The arena will be filled with an
impressive array of quality antiques and collectibles
such as Canadiana, furniture, books, porcelain,
silver, estate and costume jewelry and antique toys.
The Gala Evening Opening Celebration is set for
Friday from 7-9 p.m. This evening will include
refreshments and live entertainment. Guests can
meet the vendors, chat, browse, and buy a unique
item for their collection. Tickets are $10 in advance
and $12 at the door. Advance tickets are available
now from church members until the Thursday prior to
the show at 5 p.m.

Youngsters of all ages took advantage of the "Off to the Fair" Craft Hour organized by the Friends of the
Bayfield Library. Beautiful weather allowed the crafting session to be held outside on the library grounds.
Sparkly beads and ribbons were offered to
aid in decorating denim creations.
The Friends of the Bayfield Library (FOBL) would like
to help kids participate in the exhibition portion of the
Bayfield Community Fair. So on Aug. 1 they hosted an
"Off to the Fair" Craft Hour at the Bayfield Library with
about 20 children attending.
Children were encouraged to get creative using Play -
doh, stickers, old blue jeans and cardboard aplenty to
lake such creations as robots, denim purses or fridge
magnets. Perhaps some of the items made will be
ribbon recipients at the fair to be held Aug. 14-16.
Children were invited to make a purse or a fridge magnet using denim material as their primary medium
The show will then run Saturday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
and Sunday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. During these times the
church runs a cafe offering sandwiches, tea, coffee
and delicious homemade sweets — so visitors never
have to worry about going hungry while shopping.
Admission for Saturday and Sunday is $5 per
person.
For gala tickets or more information call Joan Cluff at
519 565-2974 or Trinity at 519 565-2790 or visit
www.trinitychurch.bayfield.on.ca.

RURAL ONTARIO THROUGH MUSIC
The Bayfield Community Fair is just over a week away in its celebration of rural Ontario.
Animals are a major part of rural life. The fair always has a wonderful collection of animals
displayed in Old Macdonald's barn. There are lots of young birds, geese, goats, cats, guinea
pigs, a horse, possibly a pig, and many last minute surprises. If people have a pet to put on
display, do contact John Siertsema, 519 565-2479 or Clay Siertsema, 519 565-2396 to ensure
there will be lots of space for them. Young people look after the animal display and if there are
some young folks who want to be part of this team, they should call either John or Clay.
The land in Huron is some of the most productive in the province. Many only rely on a small
patch to grow vegetables for their own consumption. There are a number of people who enjoy
the fun of bringing in some of their vegetables and/or flowers to compete against others who
have faced this wet summer. All exhibits can be brought in for competition on Aug. 13 from 7-9
p.m. or Aug. 14 from 9-11:45 a.m. There are always people available to help with the carrying
in of displays or with helping prepare any entry. If there are questions about how to prepare the
vegetables or flowers, ask the convenors or post the question on the website
www. bayfieldfair.ca.
Rural Ontario loves its music. The fair has five young people performing on its Youth Stage all
afternoon on Aug. 15. It's a great opportunity to see and hear the area youth demonstrate their
talents. Ava Dawe, Serena Rutledge, Holly Clausius, Sarah Hoy, and Mary Paige St. Onge are
indicative of the wealth of musical talent in the area. Further information on their musical
endeavors can be found on the website. Music will also be heard at the Rise2Fame Youth
Talent Show on Saturday evening. At this event many young people will challenge the judges
to choose them as the best in their age group. The Carnival Music Festival will also be held on
Saturday evening from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Trent Severn will be opening this licensed event. The
trio is from Stratford with a folk, roots and old country sound. Wear plaid you to make them feel
at home! The band headlining the evening is The Sadies. A Canadian band that hails from
Toronto, they blend rock and roll with country and western.
The Bayfield Community Fair is one way to view our local portion of rural Ontario with the
theme "Blue Jeans and Machines". As next year is the 160th fair, organizers are already
looking for ideas, volunteers, sponsors and supporters to take it into another new and exciting
decade.
ECUMENICAL SERVICE TO BE HELD

Bluewater's strategic planning process has moved to
the community consultation phase. Several
roundtable discussions and town hall meetings have
been scheduled over the next couple months.
Recently a meeting was held with service club
representatives from across Bluewater and on July
23 business leaders and chamber of commerce
representatives were invited to meet at the Stanley
Complex in Varna.
The remaining meetings open to residents are as
follows: July 30, Zurich; Aug. 5, Hensall; and Aug.
12, Bayfield, all meetings to be held in the local
community centres. On Aug. 26, rural residents and
members of the Brucefield, Dashwood, Kippen and
St. Josephs communities are invited to attend a
meeting at the Stanley Complex. A final community-
wide public meeting will be held on Sept. 17 at the
Stanley Complex.
All of these public meetings will start at 7 p.m.
"It's important that Bluewater's new strategic plan
reflects the vision, goals, and priorities of not just
council and staff, but also the community," said
Mayor Tyler Hessel. "Council and I encourage
everyone to attend the upcoming meetings and
provide their input. This is about our future and
everyone's opinion counts."
Irwin and Associates, Bluewater's consultants on this
initiative, have created a website specific to the
strategic planning process
(www.bluewatersvoice.com) as well as an email
address (ideas@bluewatersvoice.com) for residents
to provide written comments. They have also been
attending community events and they will be

Following the success of last year's service, the Bayfield Ministerial group has been busy
organizing another ecumenical outdoor worship service to take place under the tent in
Agriculture Park at 10:30 a.m. on Aug. 16.
The guest speaker will be Alex Leith, of the Queen's Bush Rural Ministries, a charitable
organization that assists local farmers in surviving crisis with dignity. A special offering will be
taken to support the work of this organization that provides financial, emotional and spiritual
assistance to rural folks who face challenges or difficulties. Local church members may also
bring their regular offering envelopes as they will not have their regular church services that
day.
Local musicians, including a choir and violinist will provide special music. Leadership will
include participants from Knox Presbyterian, St. Andrew's United, Church on the Way, Trinity &
St. James', Middleton Anglican churches. The whole community is invited to come out and join
in worship together as they celebrate with praise and thanksgiving!
TRAIL. ASSOCIATION TO HOST
HARVEST DINNER AND DANCE
The Bayfield River Valley Trail Association will be holding a Fall Harvest Dinner, Annual
General Meeting (AGM) and Dance on Oct. 17 at Renegades Diner in Bayfield.
Tickets are $35 and the evening starts with a Reception and Silent Auction at 6 p.m. sponsored
by Huron Adventures. Dinner is at 7 p.m., following a short AGM. After dinner, attendees can
dance to the live music of "Cheap Shirts "sponsored by Royal LePage Heartland Realty.
Tickets can be purchased by emailing info@bayfieldtrails.com or by calling Roger at 519 565-
2202 or Scott at 519 565-2827. Tables of eight or more can be reserved.
The BRVTA has been actively building and maintaining a network of trails in Bluewater over
the past nine years. These trails, built entirely by volunteers, are for public use by local
residents and tourists alike thanks to a partnership with Bluewater and the generosity of private
landowners.
Over the years the BRVTA has contributed much to community improvement through
fundraising. Sponsorship of the Terry Fox Run for the past four years has raised over $14,000.
An additional $1,000 was raised for the Goderich MRI Imaging project and $1,200 for the
Clinton Hospital. In 2013, the Festival of Fitness and Art in Bayfield used the trails to raise in
excess of $4,000 for the Goderich Hospital.
The trails are free of charge to the public and provide a superb opportunity for families and
people of all generations to enjoy the beauty of our area. Organizers hope people will come out
for a wonderful evening and support the Bayfield trails and encourage them to get their tickets
early!
SAVORING THE LAST OF SUMMER
attending more over the summer to capture public
input.

While most parents strive to raise kids to be
responsible and respectful, they are often left
wondering how to raise them to be spiritual.
Fostering a sense of awe and gratitude can lead to
increased awareness of our common humanity and a
sense of belonging to the larger cosmos. With busy
lives and an increasingly secular society, parents,
and grandparents, may be unsure of how to engage
children and youth on issues that might have been
previously addressed in Sunday School: questions of
meaning and purpose in life, concepts of 'the sacred'
and learning to think beyond themselves.
These challenges and more will be addressed at an
evening workshop sponsored by St. Andrew's United
Church in Bayfield. It will be held on Aug. 25 from 7-
8:30 p.m.
Parents and grandparents are welcome to come and
join in some interactive discussion and hopefully take
home some helpful tools for fostering spirituality at
home. The evenings will be co -lead by Huron -Perth
Presbytery Youth Minister Kathy Douglas, and St.
Andrew's minister, Rev. Elise Feltrin.
Please contact the church for more information 519
565-2854. There is no charge for this event and
everyone is welcome to attend either or both of the
sessions.
On Aug. 9, at 1 p.m., the Bayfield River Valley Trail
Association will host a walk along the historic 2 KM,
Sawmill Trail. This hike will be led by Dave Gillians,
the author of "For The Love of Bayfield". Gillians will
share some of the stories about this pioneer road,
the mill dam, the Thompson farm and the Bayfield
River.
The Sawmill Trail is located just off Old River Road,
the road just east of the bridge. Look for the signs at
the first stop sign.

on the morning of the Civic Holiday.
These young cyclists made up a stellar racing team complete with matching t -shirts.
result the 29th Annual Pioneer Park 5 KM Fun
Race went as scheduled with perhaps a little
debris on the streets adding a bit of an obstacle
course element to the event for runners, walkers
and cyclists.
Each year the event manages to attract almost
300 people of all ages.
"This is truly a unique, special and meaningful
event that is such a terrific manifestation of the
park mission and principles," said Ann
Laudenbach, event organizer.
Laudenbach is grateful to the two dozen, or so,
people who help pull this off each year, and to all
the people who donate prizes and their time. She
stresses that without these individuals this event
would not happen.

I received a letter from Bluewater CAO Gary Long on Tuesday morning, as it was long past our deadline for this issue 1 was not

Good morning:
The community consultation phase of our strategic planning process is underway. Our "town hall" meeting for Bayfield is
scheduled for Aug. 12 at 7 p.m. at the Bayfield Community Centre and I'd appreciate your help in sharing this invitation with
your readers.
Here's a sample of some of the questions our consultants have been asking:
What does community mean to you?
What is your current view of the community?
What elements do you like?
What elements do you see as challenging?
Complete the sentence: My vision of Bluewater is a community where...
What are the key priorities/issues you see currently for Bluewater?
How would you like to envision the community in the next five to ten years?
What makes Bluewater an ideal community in which to live, work, and play?
What are one to three things the municipality can do to ensure that Bluewater more than survives but thrives?
What are some ways that community engagement can be improved?
What distinguishes your community from all others?
This is a great opportunity to be involved in shaping the future of your community - your opinion counts. Let me know if you can join us and please share
this invite with other Bayfield residents, community stakeholder groups, and business owners.
For those who may not be available to attend the Aug. 12 meeting, there is a community wide meeting scheduled for Sept. 17 at 7 p.m. at the Stanley
Complex in Varna.
