Although pedalling solo, Martel soon learned after leaving Vancouver, BC, that he was never alone. And it's those heart-warming and inspirational encounters with fellow Canadians that were the inspiration for his book, "Loaves and Fishes", which coincidentally debuts in 2017, the year of Canada's 150th birthday. The dreaded Alzheimers Disease has touched Martel's life and as a result, he dedicated his ride to the Alzheimers Society of Canada. Along the way he spread awareness about the disease and encouraged people he met to donate to the society. The Photography Club of Bayfield (PCoB) is pleased to sponsor the book's launch/fundraiser on Sept. 7, from 7:30-9 p.m. at the Bayfield Town Hall. The event is open to the general public and admission is by donation to the Alzheimers Society. This is an event not to be missed. Martel is not only an amazing photographer and teacher he is also a great storyteller. Those who attend will meet the photographer/author, who will tell stories from his book and present a breath -taking audio-visual display of some of the 15,000 photographs he made along the way. Books will be available for sale at the event. Any questions, please contact Martel at 519 984-6329 or email don@donmartel.com or to learn more visit www.donmartel.com.

Sara Gundy offered some encouragement to George Gundy before the start of the cycling event. PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER Thirty-one years ago a fun tradition was started to raise funds for the maintenance of Pioneer Park — the 5 KM Fun Race. This year the traditon continued with enthusiastic participants registering for the run on the morning of Aug. 7. They laced up their sneakers some to walk others to run. People took to wheels of all sorts from cycles built for two to roller blades. The rain fell prior to the run and stayed away for the duration of the race. Cooler temperatures and overcast skies proved favorable for participants. Prizes were awarded in each category in four different age groups, plus prizes were also awarded to those who demonstrated a special effort. Various local merchants, personal businesses and other individual sponsors generously donated prizes. Luke, Reid, Faith and Thane were all ready to have a nap after they completed the 5 KM race. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezelWeek331ssue423/tabid/844/Default.aspx 11/17 6/13/2019 Week 33 Issue 423 Despite the dreary weather a large contingent of cyclists took part in the 32nd annual Pioneer Park Fun Race. Volunteer extraordinaire Marg Laudenbach cheered on the cyclists. There were just three entries in the roller blading category this year. Bill Tillman and Sara Gundy raced each other to the finish line. Perhaps a first for the Pioneer Park Fun Run, this young person decided to skip along the route. Daniel was the first male runner to cross the finish line. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreeze/Week33issue423/tabid/844/Default.aspx 12/17 6/13/2019 Week 33 Issue 423 Participants in the running portion of the fun race set a very fast pace on Monday morning. Ian McLean, and Joshua, worked together to complete the 5 KMs. John Erb was the first walker to cross the finish line and he did so with cheers from the spectators. Sarah Van Wyk was the first female runner to cross the finish line, a quite impressive feat considering she had a late start. Charlie Curtis, almost 3 years, pedalled with her baby doll on her two -wheeler along the 5 KM route with encouragement from her mother. Jenny Allan and her daughter Bridget Shanahan sail across the finish line on Monday morning. cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezelWeek331ssue423/tabid/844/Default.aspx 13/17 6/13/2019 Week 33 Issue 423 This foursome finished the race united in victory. The early morning rain and overcast skies did not prevent the participants, who upon completion of the race became spectators, from cheering enthusiastically as others finished the course. Run, ride or roll is the name of the game at the Pioneer Park Fun Race as evidenced here by these three participants.

It is addressed to the owners of Shared Time on Main Street North and was written by resident Erin Paakkunainen. The other day I woke up before even the sun had a chance to stretch it's rays. It was quiet in my house, which ironically felt loud to me. My house is usually filled with sounds of opening and closing doors as kids race in and out between water breaks from the heat, and dogs barking at the squirrel they thought was going rob the bird feeder, yet again. It felt odd to me that I was cc.villageofbayfield.com/Members/BayfieldBreezeNVeek331ssue423/tabid/844/Default.aspx 15/17 6/13/2019 Melody Falconer -Pounder Week 33 Issue 423 sitting in such silence, so I decided to seek some noise. I finished my routine morning coffee and began to leash up my two snoozing hounds. I stepped outside and there was the sun, and a few walkers in conversation sailing past my house. I wasn't sure what kind of day was ahead of me, but I felt productive attempting to get the three of us out the door before anyone else could stop us. Then came the decision where to go. "Follow the noise" I said, thinking the beach. However, I think my teeny Boston Terrier thought I said NOSE. Off she went pulling away, up this street and that one. Through the park and past the trees, which in recent walks was quite the place of interest and intense sniffing. Right past them she pulled, and little did she care that our Collie was trailing behind panting away, and most likely dreaming of the cozy warm giant sized cushion she was forced to leave behind this morning. I started to think she was remembering something, or maybe she found something? I wasn't sure, so I decided to pull back on the leash and stop her from potentially getting rug burn from pulling so hard. As I started to walk in a slightly different direction our Boston slammed on her back breaks. Full stop. She was not going anywhere. As i tried to coerce her to move a little she sat down with even more determination. "Not going" her eyes told me. So, I decided to let her lead me where she wanted to go. Up past the park, over to the right side of the main street my Boston Terrier pulls like a horse. As we pass a few stores and her energy intensifying I realize very quickly where she's taking me. Shared Time's courtesy mailbox of doggy treasures and delicious treats. She sat down right away and looked up at me with those soft eyes of her. The soft eyes that were bulging a few minutes earlier from pulling so hard. "Treat?" I said. Sitting beside her like a statue was our other dog that finally caught up to the marathon walker now calmly resting at my feet. I laughed out loud a little, and took a biscuit for each dog and felt a great sense of happiness. This very small act of kindness and generosity imbedded itself in the hearts of both my dogs, and now has left a mark on mine. I didn't know where we would go that morning, or what the day was going to be like, but having a simple act of kindness as part of your breakfast can only be found in such a place as Bayfield. As I walked home, smiling to myself and becoming part of the morning traffic of walkers and runners I began to notice how pretty this little village is and what sense of peace it brings. All the leaves began to wake up and shake hello, and the sound of the waves stretching along the shore left me feeling refreshed. I decided to write this letter, in hopes of it reaching the owners of Shared Time and to thank them for their kindness. I want to share how one small act of kindness resonates throughout the day and leaves marks on the hearts of even the smallest of creatures. Thanks to you Shared Time for giving us a place to go, and to a great start to our day. - Erin Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
