May 3, 2017 Vol. 8 Week 19 Issue 409 COUNCIL TOURS SQUARE TO ADDRESS TRAFFIC CONCERNS BY KEN LARONE SLOW 0 t • CHILDREN PLAYING Clan Gregor Square has become a wonderful place for young families to spend time, however, with greater use comes growing concern by residents for children who may face an increasing danger from traffic using the streets surrounding the park. A petition from almost 200 plus Bayfield residents was sent to Bluewater Council last January asking council to make the playground in the park a safer destination for children and families who must cross the streets to reach the park. "We are concerned the potential for serious personal injury or death has grown exponentially," residents wrote. On Dec. 8, Mike Dixon wrote a letter on behalf f of the Bayfield Optimist Club stating, "The safety of the town's children is at risk as they traverse the park area and enjoy the playground activities." IAN MATTHEW CA ON VACATION Editor's Note: The Bayfield Breeze will be publishing hiatus issues from now until May 17.

MAT"IN11ui1M0w_I;�A:ii;�N Meet BRVTA hike leaders in the parking lot at Windmill Lake Eco Park, Sunday, May 7, at 8 a.m. This hike takes place near peak of songbird migration providing an excellent opportunity for birding. Binoculars are suggested to improve your experience on this hike so bring them if you have them! The hike is 3.5 KM on mostly level ground and will take approximately one hour. There might be muddy patches, but it is considered a "walk -in -the -park" easy. Windmill Lake is located at 35957 Bayfield River Road, about 7 KM east of Hwy 21. Hike leaders are George Ebers 519 482-7572 and Roger Lewington. RIVER FLATS WALK cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezelWeekl9lssue4O9/tabid/829/Default.aspx 1/13 6/13/2019 Week 19 Issue 409 Around three sides of the Square, cars face into the park side-by-side. Between the parked cars children often run between the cars and onto the streets. "When a parent is loading a child into a vehicle another child can be playing at the side of the vehicle, two or three short steps from the road," Dixon explained in his letter. Bluewater Council held a site visit at the park mid-April to consider various safety options suggested by Bruce Grant, the Acting Manager of Public Works. One of his suggestions recommends creating a traffic circle at the north-west corner of the park. Dixon found himself left out of the discussion when he tried to add some of his own ideas which he had suggested in his original letter to council last December. Mayor Tyler Hessel ruled the council meeting at the park was an official council meeting and public speakers weren't allowed to speak without following council's official procedure. An angry Dixon responded later, "I was very disappointed with the meeting (in the Square). I will never go back to Council again." Dixon is an active member of the Optimist Club that has raised thousands of dollars for park improvements. After the site visit council returned to their council chamber in Varna and asked its staff to estimate the construction costs recommended to improve the park safety, including the traffic circle. Also, the mayor suggested reducing the existing speed limit for the streets surrounding the park. BUS TRIP TO ISMAILI CENTRE AND AGA KHAN MUSEUM Ismaili Centre & Aga Khan Museum on May 17.

(Submitted photo) Bluewater residents are invited to show their pride in community and country during Canada's 150th year by sponsoring a local planter full of red and white flowers. The Communities in Bloom Planning Committee operates the fundraising program and they would like to thank last year's sponsors for their support. Individuals, families and merchants are invited to sponsor a planter. The sponsorship period is now open. Sponsors are acknowledged by having their name printed on the reverse side of promotional signs placed in one of 50 planters. One to three lines are allowed per sign (up to 15 characters per line). Sponsorship is $75 per planter for one summer season and payable to the Municipality of Bluewater, 14 Mill Ave, PO Box 250, Zurich, ON, NOM 2TO. The local Communities in Bloom Committee is proud of Bluewater's communities and shows this pride through floral displays on the main streets of Bayfield, Hensall and Zurich. The program has assumed a decades -long community tradition and enjoys selecting floral colors each year. This year of course committee members selected red and white for Canada's sesquicentennial. The municipality keeps them beautiful with regular watering and fertilizing — and it shows! In 2016, provincial judges gave Bluewater's floral displays a score of 88 per cent. "The adoption by the public of a container is an excellent way for the public and businesses to become part of the community and have ownership," commented judges Betty Lamont and Kathy Smyth.

FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN LAUNCHES AT HIKE FOR HOSPICE EVENT The fundraising campaign for the Huron Residential Hospice will be launched at the annual Hike for Hospice, taking place on the Varna Nature Trails. People will be gathering at the Stanley Community Centre (38594 Mill Rd) on Sunday, May 7 starting at 11:30 a.m. with the official kick-off to the hike happening at 12:30 p.m. There will be activities for families, face -painting with Jen Jen the Clown, and presentations about the details of the Huron Residential Hospice capital fundraising campaign: "Moments Matter... compassionate care in the heart of Huron". There is a committee of community volunteers working to make the Huron Residential Hospice a reality. Alongside them, members of Huron Hospice Volunteer Service, an established charity with over 23 years of experience in this region, have been helping with the plans. Once operational, the Huron Residential Hospice will completely change the way hospice care is provided in this region. The facility itself will serve as a hub for hospice services and work in partnership with existing programs to support families through the entire process of palliative care, dying, death, and grieving, all while celebrating life and finding the moments that matter. "This is something that our community desperately needs. We often describe our lives in terms of 'before grandpa died' or 'after my sister died'...when we experience the loss of a loved one it greatly impacts our daily lives for many years. A residential hospice offers families another choice for dealing with end -of -life care. It aims to improve quality of life, giving families precious moments together to celebrate life," said Jay McFarlan, vice -chair of the site development committee for the Huron Residential Hospice. In preparation of the event, individuals and teams have been gathering pledges to support this much-needed community service. Staff from local hospitals, family health teams, and small businesses have been stepping up to show their support by sporting Hike for Hospice T-shirts and proclaiming on social media that they will be at the launch event on May 7. If you want to join a team, create your own team, register as an individual or simply donate, there is more information available about the event at www.HuronResidentialHospice.com There are two paths to choose from at the Varna Nature Trails; The 1 KM Taylor Trail is wheelchair and stroller accessible, and the 2.5 KM Mavis' Trail provides a moderate challenge to hikers. You do not have to hike to participate. There are also challenges for teams and prizes. "This is something that our community desperately needs.

He shares some news about the community's vital link to communities to the north - the Bayfeild Bridge. - Melody It would appear that it is back to the drawing board for the new Bayfield Bridge. Construction on a new Bayfield River Bridge will be delayed three to five years, according to Bluewater Deputy Reeve Jim Fergusson. "Long delays in engineering is forcing" the Ministry of Transportation to push back their starting time which was supposed to begin this year. "A whole new MTO team will be responsible for the project," Fergusson explained The design of the new bridge presented to Bluewater last fall could change. There were many Bayfield residents disappointed with the lack of safety features proposed in the design of the new one. Many felt that walkways leading to the bridge along Hwy 21 were left dangerously narrow for walkers and bikers. Winter snow makes it often impossible to use the walks to cross the bridge. Bayfield Councillor Bill Whetstone asked the MTO to consider building a bridge similar to the one in Exeter on Hwy 4 which has a cement barrier separating highway traffic from bikers and walkers. The Bayfield River Valley Trails Association hopes a new bridge will give them better access to their new park development as well as their established trails. - Ken Attics f Spraly Foam 0will OCn+G',rti- Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
