The calendar is a joint project of the Lions and the PCoB. "This year our theme was 'Blue is the new Green' and as a result, most of the submitted and ultimately selected photos emphasized water in all its forms," said Jack Pal, chair of the Calendar Committee. "We continue to challenge our photographers and make changes which we hope the public will like." A short list of 18 was selected from over 265 entries this year. All members of the PCoB had a vote in selecting this final short list. The thirteen winners were determined by a vote by the members of the Lions' Calendar Committee. Each of the selected photos has been enlarged and matted to a 16x20 size ready for framing. The unveiling of these photos will take place in the Farmer's Market at 4 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 18. The enlarged prints will be available for immediate sale at a price of $40 and will include a free copy of the new calendar. The new calendar will also be offered for sale at a price of $10 and will be available at Shopbike Coffee Roasters, Bayfield Foodland and Dublin Mercantile in Bayfield as well as from Lions; members, PCoB members, community organizations and volunteers. All calendar proceeds go towards Lions' projects in the community. Organizers note that the calendars make wonderful gifts and mementos of Bayfield. For those who miss the launch, there will be a display of all the calendar photos at the Bayfield Archives and Heritage Centre until the Bayfield Town Hall's annual "Sunset on Summer" event on Sept. 2 when the prints and calendars will once again be displayed and offered for sale from 4:30-7 p.m. Net proceeds from that event to be shared between the Lions and town hall.

Some of this funding will be used to provide new fitness opportunities for seniors that emphasize mindfulness and relaxation. These classes will be offered later in the day so people who still work might be able to fit them into their schedules. "NIA" will begin on Sept. 12 at 5:30 p.m. in the Bayfield Community Centre. NIA classes combine dance, martial arts and mindfulness techniques. According to practioners, flexibility, mobility, agility, strength and stability will all be enhanced. The goal is to leave the class energized and relaxed. Participants may do the class in bare feet or soft flexible sneakers that will bend with your movements. According to Wikepedia, the NIA technique is a mind/body physical conditioning program that initially stood for Non -Impact Aerobics, a health and fitness alternative that emerged in the 1980s and evolved to include neurological integrative practices and teachings. The first Total Body Relax class will be held on Sept. 28, also at 5:30 p.m. at the community centre. Total Body Relax offers a gentle approach to stretching, toning and relaxing muscles. Participants are asked to bring a yoga mat, towel or blanket and a small pillow. Note some Total Body Relax classes will be held at the arena and some at the Bayfield Town Hall. All are invited to come out and give one of these classes a try. There is no charge for either class. Please email plewington @tcc.on.ca for more information. Morning along the Sawmill Trail.

I have seen this poem written by German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemoller (1892-1984) pop up in social media a lot in the last six months. It is about the cowardice of German intellectuals following the Nazis' rise to power. According to Wikepedia, the pastor wrote it in 1946. He himself was a survivor of a concentration camp.
