OCt. 19, 2016 Vol. 8 Week 43 Issue 381 GOAL REACHED FOR BAYFIELD RIVER FLATS CAMPAIGN Bayfield has once again far exceeded �wpromo expectations! In less than one month and a half, over 20 per cent of Bayfield residents have donated to the Bayfield River Flats (BRF) campaign to purchase the 4.75 acres of river bank property near the Bayfield Bridge. Once all donations and promises have been collected, the minimum objective of $70,000 will be significantly surpassed! The extra funds will all go to improving the property as a passive, environmentally sensitive, public recreational space. All extra BRF funds, which will be held "In Trust', in the audited accounts of the Huron Tract Land Trust Conservancy (HTLTC), will reduce the need for future fundraising campaigns. Because of this incredible response, the BRF fundraising team of Mike Dixon, Wayne McKaig, Sandy Scotchmer, Kirsten Harrett, Gayle Waters, David MacLaren, Helen Varekamp, Roma Harris, Jack Pal, Ray Letheren, Larry Dalton, Doug Vanderhaar and Dave Gillians has decided to end this campaign early on Oct. 31. This will give more donors the opportunity to have their names (not donation amounts) if they wish, included in the BRF archival book, which is being prepared to document this campaign. The book will be presented to the Bayfield Historical Society once the River Flats Natural Environment Area is open and functioning as envisioned.

MAIN STREET PLAN The Municipality of Bluewater will host a Public Information Centre (PIT) regarding Bayfield's Main Street Renewal tonight (Oct. 19) at the Bayfield Community Centre. Through consultation with the Main Street Project Advisory Team a concept plan has been prepared which will guide the Municipality of Bluewater through the final design stage of the Bayfield Main Street project. The concept plan provides for improved storm water drainage, upgraded boulevards, sidewalks, tree planting layout, and reconfigured parking. The PIC will present details of the proposed concept plan to residents of the community and obtain feedback on the various design elements. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezeNVeek431ssue381/tabid/801/Default.aspx 1/12 6/13/2019 Week 43 Issue 381 donor agrees), will be in the book and included on a plaque, which will be featured prominently on the Flats property. The Bayfield community was underestimated! The fund raising committee cautiously set it's challenging $70,000 target to enable the village to acquire the property, pay expenses and have just enough for a "Masterplan". This first and most critical objective has been achieved because of the generosity and vison of those individuals and groups who could see the potential of this space. Now there are the resources to start phase two of this project. The Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA) lawyer for this project, Quinn Ross, has been instructed to proceed with completing this purchase. During the sale closing, the land will be transferred to the HTLTC, whose sole purpose is to hold environmentally sensitive lands in perpetuity, according to the wishes of the land donor. Forever is a long time. When this fundraising campaign was conceived, this was one of the most challenging issues. The HTLTC is the best answer to make certain our land will be managed well, for the benefit of the community, in perpetuity. A detailed Trust Agreement and land management agreement between the BRVTA and the HTLTC has been agreed upon to ensure that the Bayfield community will always be able to enjoy and have access to our beautiful river. Thanks to those people who love this village and want to contribute to making it the best it can be, now there will be enough resources to create an innovative, natural space that will help define Bayfield for future generations.

(Submitted photo) A concerned group of Hensall residents continue to meet each month with the goal of advocating for infrastructure improvements and streetscape upgrades in the village. The Hensall Streetscape and Infrastructure Improvement Committee (HSIIC) continues to work with the Municipality of Bluewater in a variety of ways. As well, the group has plans to engage local businesses in the future. In 2015, the Municipality of Bluewater held public meetings to provide an opportunity for local residents to express their thoughts about living in Bluewater. At the meeting in Hensall, local residents expressed general satisfaction about living in the village, noting its friendly atmosphere, affordable housing stock, and location. Many improvements to the village were noted, citing the parkette, building upgrades, Heritage Hall, among many others. Clinics within the municipality with Bayfield's being held on Oct. 25 at Trinity Anglican Church. The church is located at 10 Keith Crescent and the clinic will be open from 4-6 p.m. A second clinic will be held at the Zurich Community Centre on Nov. 2 from 4-6 p.m. The Bluewater and Area Family Health Team will also provide shots at their Zurich location Monday thru Thursday from now until Nov. 30 from 1-2 p.m. Those people receiving the shot are asked to wear a top with sleeves that will roll up easily and also bring their CHIP Health Card. i .

The group expressed that this parkette is a great asset to the village and has a positive effect on the downtown area. Visually, it is appealing and user friendly. However, it was thought that a "green screen" hedge running east and west to the rear of the parkette would improve visual appeal as it blocks out the alley to the north. Liz Sangster of the Dr. Jennie Smillie Robertson Memorial Parkette Committee, said, "This parkette is a great example of the community working together. The municipality, business owners, private citizens and service groups really came together from the beginning to honor Dr. Smillie and make this park possible. We welcome the Hensall Streetscape and Infrastructure Improvement Committee's help in the installation of a hedge across the back of the park. The hedge will add beauty and a natural habitat to downtown." For its first project, the HSIIC has approved the installation of such a hedge and the municipality has agreed to facilitate the project. Sangster and HSIIC Chair, Chuck Mallette recently met with Facilities Manager Kevin Geoffrey to finalize plans for the hedge planting In addition, there are plans to install pole banners to beautify the downtown area. Other ideas have included walking trails for the promotion of a healthy and active lifestyle. In addition, the group will be exploring setting up a work party to clean up certain areas that need attention. The group discusses these and other goals and concerns at monthly meeting. phone at 519 482-5457 or email mwark@huroncounty.ca. CYCLING STRATEGY The County of Huron has developed a strategy intended to improve cycling safety and enjoyment in our region. The Huron County Cycling Strategy Committee has created a draft strategy. The committee is comprised of stakeholders from the cycling, health, municipal, police, tourism, and transportation sectors.

UNITED WAY LAUNCHES WISH LIST United Way Perth -Huron in partnership with PF Solutions has launched a new service in Perth and Huron Counties, connecting people and companies to non -profits who are seeking gently used items at no cost. The service consists of a website encouraging non -profits to post items that they are seeking as "a wish list", as well as showing items that businesses and individuals are willing to give away. "It's a match making service for gently used items," said Susan Faber, PF Solutions Manager. "There are so many vital organizations across Perth and Huron that just don't have the budget to purchase items that they need. Examples are filing cabinets, office chairs, humidifiers, indoor plants, fridges, microwave ovens... really any item that would make their lives easier while delivering their service." Faber continued, "Most businesses and individuals have items they no longer use and they are more than pleased to gift that item — now they can and it's PF Solutions that will provide that backend logistics to this service." PF Solutions (PF) is a practice first program where individuals facing barriers to employment attend over a period of time to upgrade their administration skills and gain work experience, increasing their employability. PF Solutions is a supported partner of United Way Perth -Huron and helps between 30-36 participants a year to gain employment. The new service will provide work experience to participants in web page management, logistics, and customer service and project management. "It's a great example of the collaboration that is happening in Perth and Huron Counties," said Executive Director of United Way Perth -Huron, Ryan Erb. "This community service will help businesses, organizations and individuals across both counties, as well as helping individuals facing barriers to achieve employment. It's a win-win for everyone."

Here in Bayfield I am blessed with some rather remarkably enthusiastic cookie sellers perhaps the best I've seen in my 28 years as a Guider. In just under a week the Bayfield Guiding girls had cleared out our original inventory of 80 cases of Chocolatey Mint cookies (960 boxes) and we were still days away from Cookie Days so that is when I started searching for surplus cases. Turns out it is a banner year for cookie sales and it took a lot of searching before I tracked 18 more cases down in a town just an hours drive away. At this moment, apparently there are no surplus cases available anywhere in Ontario and units who need more are on a three-week wait list with no guarantee of a supply. The folks at Dare must be shaking their heads! Well, it is not for me to question why the sudden burst in popularity — mine is just to help the girls reach their cookie selling goals. So with the added 216 boxes secured we had enough to complete our selling days at Bayfield Foodland — selling out of the surplus on Saturday afternoon. Girls who still had some cookies brought in their extras to sell on Sunday and they got scooped up too. And thus in just three short weeks our autumn cookie campaign is concluded. There may be the odd member of Bayfield Guiding still with some cookies to sell so if you have a craving I would track them down fast — I can pretty much guarantee they won't last long! And if you were one of the lucky people who got a box of cookies — thanks so much for supporting our girls and our program we truly appreciate it! — Melody Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome. Deadlines for submissions are Sundays at 4 p.m. Please email me at bayfield.breeze@villageofbayfield.com or call 519-525-3830. BAWIELD BREEZE Q SHRRE®... {�.
