HOW ONE BOY MADE CHRISTMAS
Nine year-old Logan McKaig was the winner of the Toy Chest Raffle organized by the Bayfield
Optimist Club. His grandparents are Bayfield residents Wayne and Pat McKaig. Wayne is a
very active member of the Optimist Club. Grandpa wanted to share the story of what Logan
decided to do with his big win with Bayfield Breeze readers.
"Thought I would share this story as it made a Grandpa very proud of his Grandson and a Mom
and Dad proud of him as well. You may know that I buy raffle tickets for each of my grandkids.
This year I missed our Breakfast with Santa, as I was in Waterloo with my son Matt and his
family, at a Brunch with Santa. I was at that event when Optimist Mike Dixon called to inform
me that Logan McKaig, my son Ben's boy, won the toy chest and gifts," wrote Wayne.
"His parents, Ben and Ashia, agreed that Logan had no need of more toys. I suggested that if
Logan would like to donate these toys to some needy families it might be a good idea but that I
wanted Logan to understand and wanted him to agree to it. The cards fell in place and Logan
understood that other children sometimes don't have as much as others and that a gift like this

would be a wonderful opportunity for Logan to
give."
So the McKaig family decided to donate
Logan's gift to the Goderich and Clinton
Salvation Army so that the toys might be given
directly to kids of needy families.
Shannon Daniels, community and family
services coordinator, was very pleased to
receive the donation and asked for Logan's
address so that she might send him a
Christmas card to thank him.
"Pat and I selected a toy from the many for
Logan because he will be given the card of
thanks from Shannon and he will have a gift
from the toy chest to remember about his lucky
raffle pick," wrote Wayne.
And Grandpa Wayne intends to once again buy each of his four grandkids three tickets in next
year's toy chest raffle.
"I hope one of them win again so we can do the same thing over again. What a great idea and
a wonderful way to start the Christmas season!" Wayne concluded.
STEFFLER'S ART STUDIO IS A WALK-IN
FREEZER SET AT MINUS EIGHT
If you had asked Adam Steffler, of Iceculture,
about his artistic endeavors a year or so ago,
the reply would not have revealed anything
unusual or very spectacular. Steffler is not a
typical artist, nor does he brag about his unique
artwork. But he is a talented artist and his
workmanship has been admired in countries all
over the world.
Steffler's medium is ice and snow and he trades
the customary brush and palette for plastic
squeeze bottles filled with paint and blended to
accurately reproduce the colors required for the
painting in hand. And his studio is a large walk-
in freezer operating at minus eight degrees
celcius.
Iceculture in Hensall, has perfected the ice
portrait technique using little more than ice,
snow and coloring. With the help of CNC
Adam Steffler and the tools of his trade. The other
images found in this article are examples of his icy-
technology the company has been able to art. (submitted photos)
create stunning portraits and landscapes. But,
cutting the ice is only part of process. The final step is applying the color; and this is where
Steffler's skill comes into play.
First, colors have to be mixed and matched to the subject. At this point, he compares his paint
mix which contains gelatin to stabilize the color to the portrait to make sure he can achieve the
appropriate results. The paint is then placed in squeeze bottles fitted with needle -nose caps.
Gelatin is heated slightly when it is mixed with the paint and it is then injected into the channels
cut in the ice by the CNC -controlled router. The channels are cut at different heights allowing
two or more colors to be applied without the chance of one color leeching into another.
The process calls for a lot of patience, a steady hand and an artistic eye to be successful —
attributes which Steffler has in spades. He also has to watch the temperature of the paint -
The local Anglican congregations request the
pleasure of your company at their upcoming
Christmas services.
On Dec. 24, Trinity Anglican Church will host a
Happy Birthday Jesus Party for area children and

a Christmas Eve Family Service at 5 p.m. An
additional Christmas Eve Service will be held at St.
James' Middleton at 7:30 p.m.
And then on Christmas Day all will be received to
herald the birth of the Christ child with a quiet service
at Trinity at 10:30 a.m.

and often has to place the mix in a microwave
oven for a few seconds. If the mix is too hot, it
will melt the ice or at worst, shatter it when
applied.

Movie stars, TV personalities, athletes, musicians, politicians — past and present, iconic
buildings, historical landmarks — you name it, and Steffler can produce a library of designs he
has created over the years. Unfortunately, his art is very much a short-term production.
Anyone seeing ice and snow art for the first time will always ask how the paint gets into the ice.
"Probably, the same way the caramel gets into that chocolate bar," Steffler commented.
local citizens to their communities.
Among those who will be recognized is Bayfield's
own, Roger Lewington.
Lewington is president of the Bayfield River Valley
Trail Association, a group responsible for building 14
KMs of nature trails.
"Hearing about the acts of kindness performed by
this citizen and his fellow nominees has been heart-
warming. So many people from across the riding
reached out during the nomination process with
nothing but praise for these remarkable men and
women. I look forward to celebrating with them and
their friends and family in January," said Thompson.
The New Year's Levee will take place on Jan. 6 at 7
p.m. at the Teeswater Town Hall (3 Clinton St. South)
and will also recognize the accomplishments of Bob
Kellington (Brussels), Cathy Pennington (Kincardine),
Dr. Chandra Tripathi (Kincardine), Clarence Kieffer
Jr. (Walkerton), Diane Lieber (Goderich, formerly of
Teeswater), Donald Farrell (Ripley), Jennie Rowe
(Exeter), Heather Frook (Municipality of Brockton),
James Rice (Tiverton), Jean Culliton (Teeswater),
and Jeff Roberts (Walkerton) and Vicky Culbert
(Goderich).
The event is free and open to the public, with a Jan.

MILK BAG MATS
Students at Huron Centennial School in Brucefield
are taking part in the Homeless Connect initiative
weaving sleeping mats for the homeless in Toronto
using milk bags. Donations of 100 per cent acrylic
yarn would also be appreciated.
The group of 25 youths has to date made almost
three -dozen mats but to keep the momentum going
they need more clean, 4L milk bags. It takes 100 to
125 bags to make one mat and about three hours to
complete one.
Currently there is a drop off location for these bags at
the Nip N' Tuck and the library in Bayfield and people
are encouraged to save them from their recycling box
and drop them off.
As the initiative grows the young people hope to
make mats for homeless veterans and supply other
agencies in cities like London with them as well.
EMPTIES FOR
ALZHEEVIERS
Dianne Brandon, Carrie and Ava Sabourin would like
to remind everyone preparing for holiday gatherings
that their tradition of collecting empties for
Alzheimer's Disease is continuing this year.

TALE TO ORDER TREES FOR SPRING
The Christmas season is here and it is the early days of winter but spring is not far behind.
Ausable Bayfield Conservation has announced the spring tree order form is now online at
abca.on.ca. The conservation authority receives mail -in orders until Jan. 31. Orders are taken
accompanied by payment until Feb. 29.
Landowners plant tens of thousands of trees through the spring and autumn tree order
programs but the spring program is the largest of the two, said Forestry and Land Stewardship
Specialist, Ian Jean, with Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA). People in the
watershed buy trees for conservation projects such as windbreaks, watercourse buffers,
reforestation of erosion -prone slopes, or tree planting on marginal agricultural lands.
"We have spring and fall tree order programs but spring is the bigger season by far," according
to Jean.
Copies of the tree order form can be found and printed from abca.on.ca or they are available at
the office at 71108 Morrison Line, just east of Exeter and south of Highway 83.
Grant programs are available for projects such as windbreaks, watercourse buffers and larger
scale reforestation projects that cover between 50 per cent and 100 per cent of the project
costs, depending on the type of project and availability of local funding programs. Staff at
ABCA work on behalf of landowners to access applicable, funding programs where they exist.
Landowners pay the costs of the trees but in many cases there are cost -share programs to
help local people with some or all of the cost of planting projects. For more information on grant
programs or ordering trees please call 519 235-2610 or 1-888-286-2610 (toll free).
You may find the tree order form by visiting the website at abca.on.ca. To locate it type in
'trees' in the search box at the top of the home page. Then press 'Search' and the Enter key to
find the page. The page can also be found by clicking the 'Forestry and Stewardship' tab.
ABCA purchases trees from private nurseries to offer for sale to watershed residents. The
purchase price includes costs such as transportation of trees to the office east of Exeter, cold
storage, and handling.
Tree and shrub species that can be purchased include such varieties of Conifer seedlings as,
White Cedar; White Pine; Norway and White Spruce and Tamarack; as well as Deciduous
seedlings such as, Silver/Soft Maple; Red and Bur Oak; Black Walnut; Black Cherry and
Sycamore. Shrubs are also available including: Red Osier Dogwood; Staghorn Sumac;
Highbush Cranberry and Nannyberry. Anyone looking for large stock Conifer can choose from
White Cedar; Norway, White and Blue Spruce and Austrian Pine. Large stock Deciduous are
available in the following varieties: Silver/Soft Maple; Autumn Blaze Red and Silver Hybrid
Maple; Sugar/Hard Maple; Sycamore; Red and Bur Oak; Tulip Tree and Serviceberry.
The trio will be participating in the Huron County
2015 Walk for Memories in May of 2016 and are now
collecting donations for the cause.
It is, of course, hoped that everyone will celebrate
responsibly this festive season and when doing so
plan to donate the empty beer bottles and cans; wine
and liquor bottles to their team, "For the Love of
Elane and Doris". After living with Alzheimer's, Elane
Brandon, Sabourin's grandmother died in April 2015
while Doris Schilbe, Dianne's mother died in August
of 2014.
Empties of all sorts may be dropped off at Brandon's
Hardware in Bayfield, or picked up anytime, just call
Brandon's Hardware at 519 525-8884. Empties may
also be dropped off at Bayfield Convenience in their
names.
UKULELE SOCIETY
The Bayfield Ukulele Society (BUS) welcomes
people with an interest in learning to play to join them
at their meetings held at the Bayfield Public Library.
They hold meetings on alternating Saturdays starting
at 10 a.m. The meetings conclude at 11:30 a.m. And
then every Monday afternoon there is an open
practice from 1:30 to 3 p.m.
The BUS is free for anyone to join who wants to learn
in a fun "hands on" group way. No registration
required just drop in. Folks do have to supply their
own ukulele however.
BLESSINGS
Blessings Community Store is a thrift store as well as
a food bank on Main Street in Zurich. People may
have noticed that their donation box in Bayfield has
moved from the old Foodland lot to the Nip N' Tuck
lot (just north of the building). Residents are
encouraged to drop in the box clean, gently used
clothing and household goods they no longer need or
want. The sale of these items in the thrift store help
to support the food bank as well as help others.
Please call 519 236-4376 with questions.
NUIN STREET

The conservation authority expressed thanks to member municipalities, Huron County Clean
Water Project, Huron Stewardship Council, Trees Ontario, Species at Risk Stewardship Fund,
and Government of Canada Habitat Stewardship Program for Species at Risk for their support
of tree planting grant programs.
Trees and windbreaks provide a variety of benefits.
"Planting trees for windbreaks reduces soil erosion, wind stress on field crops and protects
livestock as well," said Jean. "Windbreaks can keep drifting snow away from homes and farms,
reduce winter heating costs and summer cooling costs, keep spray application from leaving the
field, reduce soil erosion, protect livestock from extremes of heat and cold, and more."
Trees along watercourses improve water quality and provide wildlife habitat and travel
corridors. Other potential benefits include marking property boundaries and yield increases.
Ontario studies have shown increases in yields for field crops buffered by windbreaks.
Research in Southwestern Ontario indicates corn yields at least six per cent higher in areas
sheltered by windbreaks and soybean yields about 25 per cent higher in sheltered areas
compared to open areas.
Area farmers were quoted in an Ontario brochure speaking to the noticeable advantages they
saw in windbreaks. Those advantages included earlier germination of crops, earlier warming of
soils, and increased yields extending about 10 feet into the field for every foot of tree height. A
stateside study in Nebraska indicated hay yields as 20 per cent higher in sheltered areas than
open areas.
GERGER WINS FIRST PRIZE IN
HOLIDAY FEAST RAFFLE
Bayfield Ward Councilor Bill Whetstone drew the winners of the Bayfield
Agricultural Society's Holiday Feast raffle. (Submitted photos)
The anxious anticipation for a winning phone call for a prize from the Bayfield Agricultural
Society's (BAS) Holiday Feast Raffle is now over. All tickets for the draw were sold days in
advance of the draw on Dec. 18. A small crowd gathered at Stonefield Garden Centre in hopes
of seeing their ticket pulled by Bill Whetstone, the Bayfield Ward councilor. Jim Erwin, one of
the attendees, became quite excited as his wife Elizabeth's ticket was drawn for second prize.
Rick Gerger from Bayfield picked up the first prize and the third prize went to Shirley
Sutherland of Parkhill, ON. Angela Polach and Nancy Suchard, of Goderich, were winners of
coffee and fruitcake. A $20 gift certificate for the Charles Street Market went to an excited
Marcie McLean, from Goderich, who loves shopping there. Preserves found their way to Henry
Baker's pantry. A half -bushel of apples went to Goderich to the home of Hugh McBurney.
The money from the draw will go toward costs associated with putting on the annual fair and
with this year being the 160th fair some extra entertainment is being planned. Susan Lehnen,
coordinated the holiday raffle with help from Marj Payne and Liz Elliott who assisted. These
folks got all the items and organized them into exciting prize packages and their work is very
much appreciated by the Agricultural Society membership.
Please call 519 565-2300 to schedule an
appointment.
CONSERVATIONIST
AWARD
Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA) has
announced that it will once again honor a person,
business, farm, or organization doing positive work in
the local watershed community with the
Conservationist of the Year Award.
The conservation authority invites you to nominate
eligible persons, farms, businesses, groups, or
organizations for this award. The event organizers
are to accept nominations until Jan. 29. Ausable
Bayfield Conservation has presented the award since
1984.
Past winners of the Conservationist of the Year
Award include rural landowners and residents, farms,
service clubs, community organizations, companies,
nature groups, and municipalities. Each award
winner is a business, organization, or person residing
in the watershed or having done conservation work
there.
"The list of past winners of this award is very
impressive," said Brian Horner, general manager and
secretary -treasurer of ABCA. "There have also been
many excellent nominees in addition to those people
and groups who have been presented with the
award."
The success of work to protect water, soil, and living
things is only possible because of the partnership
with landowners, residents, community groups,
businesses, and other partners, according to Horner.
"This is one of the ways we can say thank you for
that vital work they do," he said.
ABCA presents the award each year at the annual
conservation awards evening in March. The
Conservationist of the Year receives a framed
limited -edition conservation print as a prize and the
conservation authority also makes a donation
towards a tree and plaque at a Commemorative
Woods site maintained by the Ausable Bayfield
Conservation Foundation.
The nomination form and award guidelines are
available on the Ausable Bayfield Conservation
website at abca.on.ca. Simply type in 'award' in the
search box at the top of the home page and then

The Ashwood Inn folks hosted a charity run/walk
in their forested property and neighboring roads
on Dec. 20.
The Ashwood Santa Run/Walk was a 5 KM event
with all participants dressing in the spirit of the
season, the majority paying tribute to Santa
Claus, but there was a reindeer and an elf or two
thrown in for good measure.
The Huron Women's Shelter was the benefactor
of the fun run with over $1,270 being raised for
the cause. After the run participants were invited
to enjoy live music with Jazz Artist Scott Chow in
the Ashwood Bourbon Bar.
Dana Prouse, of Clinton, stood out in a crowd of Santa's

Our family of felines grew smaller this week as we said goodbye to one of the sweetest cats I have had the pleasure to know.
Hobbitt left us after 17 years of loving companionship and sometimes not so gentle nose nibbles.
We had a great team working to keep her with us but in the end it was her decision to move on. She will celebrate Christmas
with the angels this year and we will miss having her smack dab in the middle of the gift unwrapping action.

please pick up a cat related item be it some litter, a toy or some
food and drop it by your nearest animal shelter or in the bin at
the front of the grocery store if there is one. Please drop me an
email if you do so.
Hobbitt, was a very warm and giving feline who lived her life to
the fullest, and it is in this sharing with others that she shall be
most appropriately remembered. Merry Christmas from our
family, felines included, to yours. - Melody
