LIFE AT THE RINK
People are never too old to lace up their skates and
take to the ice for "Canada's Game" and members of
the community are invited to come out and watch two
games at the Bayfield Arena this week.
The Bayfield Relics have home ice advantage
against the Zurich Hasbeans tonight (Dec. 20) at
8:30 p.m.
The Bayfield Relics are an Oldtimers Hockey Team
that was founded in 1987. Their home ice is the
Bayfield Arena. The Relics play their season
schedule versus teams from Huron and Middlesex
Counties.
"While the economic impact is uncalculated, it is well
known these visiting players often return to Bayfield
with their families throughout the year," said Ron
Keys, chair of the Bayfield Arena Community
Partners Association (BACPA).
Public skating is offered on Sunday, Dec. 23 from 1-3
p.m. and Wade Berard Plumbing will be sponsoring
the ice time on this date.

For the first two years the run was held on The
Ashwood Inn property and area surrounding it.
This year's registration was held at the Bayfield
Town Hall with over 35 people suiting up to take
on the challenge of running along the snow
covered streets.
The Huron County Christmas Bureau was the
benefactor of the $1,100 in funds raised that
was generously donated by the particpants.
One contestant commented that it was a like
running in sand and even the first place winner
was overhead to say that it was even difficult for
him to find a good footing. But despite the
challenges all seemed to have fun and were
well rewarded for their efforts. After the 5 KM
trek participants were treated to a post run
social in the Bayfield Town Hall. Highway
Robbery Deli and Sandwich Shop, River Road
Brewing Co and Square Brew, of Goderich,
provided the refreshments.

Anne Fontana, chair Hospice Care Avon Maitland
(HCAM), announces the appointment of Katherine
Hewitt as Executive Director for HCAM.
As Executive Director, Hewitt will be accountable for
the planning, implementation and monitoring of an
innovative model of care at the two hospice facilities
operated by HCAM. One site will be located in
Stratford and one located in Central Huron near
Clinton.
The Huron Residential Hospice site plans to open in
March 2018 at the same time the Stratford Perth
Rotary Hospice plans to break ground for their new
facility. Both sites will provide residential hospice
palliative care for people in their final days of life, as
well as support for their extended family. The new
beds are expected to serve up to 100 individuals and
their families each year.
Hewitt was born and raised in Stratford, ON and is a
graduate of the Nursing Program at Douglas College,
Surrey, BC. She has a broad range of experience in
the acute health care setting starting as a Staff
Nurse, Nurse Manager and Director of Care not only
in Ontario but also British Columbia, Alberta, Texas
and Saudi Arabia. While in the Middle East, Hewitt
completed a Masters in Business Administration from
Heriot Watt University in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Upon return to Canada in 2000, she held a variety of
leadership positions in a variety of hospital settings.
These roles included Program Director for
Emergency, Ambulatory Care, and Critical Care.
The latter part of her career was in the community
sector with Mississauga Halton Community Care
Access Centre (MHCCAC) as a Director of Patient
Care.
Hewitt retired from MHCCAC in 2015 and returned,
with her husband, to her hometown of Stratford, after
37 years away. Since December of 2016 Hewitt has
been involved in the residential hospice project for
Huron and Perth as a volunteer, and looks forward to
the excitement of this new challenge.
"As Executive Director, I look forward to working
towards the official opening of both facilities, to better

serve the palliative care needs of our region," shared
Katherine. "This is an exciting opportunity to develop
a center of excellence for death and dying, and
provides a meaningful way to share in our future
patient's end of life journey. I look forward to being a
part of their choice to die with dignity."
St. Elizabeth Health Care is providing the funding for
the first year of this position. The organization has
provided millions of dollars to support the hospice
care movement and improve access to end -of -life
care across Canada. Hospice Care Avon Maitland is
grateful for their contribution to this important project
in Huron and Perth Counties and look forward to the
successful opening of both residential hospices.

HEALTH UNIT MERGER
Yesterday, the Ministry of Health and Long -Term
Care (MOHLTC) announced proposed regulatory
changes to the Health Protection and Promotion Act,
which pave the way for a merger of the Perth District
Health Unit and the Huron County Health Unit. The
changes need to happen before next steps in
planning an amalgamation can move forward.
"These proposed regulatory changes show that there
is support at the provincial level for a Huron and
Perth health unit merger," explained Dr. Miriam
Klassen, Medical officer of Health for the Perth

Matthews, minister of Advanced Education and Skills Development. (Submitted photo)
Nominated by the Huron County Economic Development Department, Par-Chier Farms Ltd of
Blyth is a recipient of the 2017 Premier's Award for Agri -Food Innovation Excellence.
"I'm pleased that Huron County producers continue to be recognized among the top agri-food
businesses in Ontario," said Huron County Warden Jim Ginn. "I'd like to congratulate owners
Jim and Sylvia Parish, and David and Kirsten Passchier on earning this award."
Looking to improve the efficiency of their goat dairy, Par-Chier Farms Ltd installed a cutting-
edge rotary parlour that incorporates the feeding, milking and sorting of animals into one
automated process — the first of its kind in North America. The 80 -stall facility makes it possible
to milk 800 goats per hour, where the specific dietary and care needs of each individual animal
is managed using tracking technology. With this new computerized system in place, overall
milk production on the farm has increased by 25 per cent.
"We invested a lot into researching the technology and modifying designs to fit our operating
goals," said Sylvia Parish, co-owner of Par-Chier Farms Ltd. "We're really pleased with the
outcome and are looking to expand our operation in the near future.
The Premier's Award for Agri -Food Innovation Excellence is an annual program designed to
recognize leaders in Ontario's agri-food sector. Huron County is the most agriculturally
productive region in the province producing $1.2 billion in farm receipts in 2016, approximately
20 per cent more than any other county in Ontario.
CADE PROMOTED TO WATER AND
District Health Unit and Acting Medical officer of
Health for the Huron County Health Unit. The
regulation must be passed in order to approve any
funding for the merger.
The Huron and Perth Amalgamation Steering Group
and Boards of Health will be providing the
government with additional details to put in the
regulation, for example the name of the new health
unit and composition of the new Board.
"If the proposed regulatory changes pass cabinet
approval in January, then we expect that the next
step would be for the Ministry to approve funding for
a merger," said Dr. Klassen. "If the funding is
approved, then the merger would proceed."
In 2017, the health units commissioned the Lough
Barnes Amalgamation Feasibility and Planning
Report, which would be used to guide the merger
transition.
A summary of the proposed amendments can be
found here: www.ontariocanada.com
The regulation changes are posted for public
comment until Jan. 4, prior to Cabinet approval.

Music is a big part of Christmas and on the third Sunday of Advent I found myself completely immersed in it. The day started
with the "Lessons and Carols" service at Trinity in Bayfield. This is my favorite service of the entire year. It is comprised of
familiar carols that fill the soul with the spirit of the season.

And then in the afternoon I was in for a real treat as the Huron Country Playhouse opened their doors in the bleak mid -winter
time to let Elvis in. "The Wonderful World of Christmas Graceland Edition" starring Elvis tribute artist Steven Michaels was
wonderful indeed!
If you were feeling a bit Grinch -like at the start of the show you were surely to walk out with a heart three sizes bigger by the
end. It was a blend of comedy, showmanship, tremendous instrumental and vocal talent and some mighty fine Elvis drawl and
swagger. It made me think what it might have been like if Elvis had invited 500 of his nearest and dearest over for a holiday
gathering.
The end was thrilling as Michaels, and his choir of eight, encouraged the audience to join them in singing, "O Come All Ye
Faithful".
"O Sing, choirs of angels,
Sing in exultation,
Sing all that hear in heaven God's holy word."
From our house to yours, no matter what you celebrate this season, or how you choose to do so, may music fill the air and may your heart sing! — Melody
