craftsman David Loerchner, is the 22nd feature artist selected over the 29 -year history of the Dinner and
Auction held in Exeter. (Submitted photo)
The 29th Conservation Dinner, a fundraising event organized by area volunteers, the Exeter
Lions Club, and the Ausable Bayfield Conservation Foundation, is set for Apr. 12. The
Conservation Dinner Committee has selected D. L. Creations, of Bayfield, as the feature artist
for the 2018 gala charitable community fundraising auction
"We are honored to recognize the craftsmanship of David Loerchner and D. L. Creations for
their acclaimed woodwork," said Dinner Committee Co -Chair Larry Taylor.
The accomplished custom woodworking enterprise, featuring the creations of owner and
craftsman Loerchner, is the 22nd feature artist selected over the 29 -year history of the Dinner
and Auction.
"The Dinner Committee has featured artists working in fine art, in culinary arts, in ice, wood,
glass, and metal," said Dinner Committee Co -Chair Jim Beckett. "The local artistry and
craftsmanship of this skilled woodworker is most deserving of this recognition."
A lifelong Bayfield resident, Loerchner said he is honored to have been selected as this year's
feature artist. One of his large pieces will be included in the live auction at the Apr. 12 Dinner.
When asked, in an interview, which of his many wood pieces makes him most proud the
craftsman smiled and said, "I'm proud of every piece."
The feature artist's work ranges from the rustic to the finished. He sometimes uses different
kinds of wood in a single piece and selects the woods based on their distinctive qualities
including color. He sometimes adds artistic flair such as a bowtie effect or Juniper tree
flourishes inserted into a Walnut piece. Once, he created a bench for a hair salon and
incorporated into the bench a different kind of wood, cut finely into the shape of scissors. That
took many hours to achieve the required intricate detail but the final result was inspiring. The
Bayfield native doesn't just create woodwork - he envisions inspired creations and then makes
them reality. In one case, he took Butternut wood and realized a table with a stream down the
middle.
Many of his pieces are real "conversation starters," he said. The wide range of eye-catching
pieces at D. L. Creations are testaments to the abilities of this Bayfield wood artist but he said
"Mother Nature does most of the work."
A quotation attributed to Albert Einstein says: "Look deep into nature, and then you will
understand everything better." The Bayfield craftsman likes this quote and repeats it as a
mantra that guides much of his work.
In a world where many things are mass-produced or thrown away, this Bayfield man is creating
unique, lasting, beautiful, quality objects that will become part of homes and businesses for
decades or even generations to come. "Some people make furniture," the firm's website says.
"We, on the other hand, prefer to build legacies."
The Conservation Dinner - which supports projects in local communities such as outdoor
nature education, parks, the Jones pedestrian bridge project, accessible trails, and more - is a
good fit with this craftsman's love of the great outdoors. The high demand for his wooden
pieces means he doesn't get out fishing or enjoying the outdoors as much as he would like but
nature still inspires his work.
"At D. L. Creations we are inspired by the brilliance of the Earth," the firm's website
(dlcreations.ca) says. "Our fascination with and respect for the outdoors is what motivated us to
begin making beautiful housewares from reclaimed pieces of wood."
The noted custom woodworker sources his wood locally and he often re -purposes wood from
previous uses - such as a torn -down barn or cottage or trees removed to make room for power
lines. The fact that much of the wood is recovered and given new life in a new form offers a
richer history to the pieces. The purchaser knows a piece may have a story to tell, whether the
wood once was someone's favorite tree as a child, a tree on a farm or neighbourhood road, or
part of a barn. In one case, a large tree that had been felled was cut into 450 -pound slabs right
in someone's backyard and that wood will soon become a new creation. In another case, a
beam from a torn -down cottage with sentimental value is transformed into a unique coffee table
that will last for generations in a new dwelling.

"Rather than produce more waste by using manufactured materials, we forage aged wood from
a variety of locations," according to the firm's website. "This allows us to create totally unique
and incredibly durable products while continuing to preserve our planet. Sometimes, the perfect
coffee table is lying inside the offcuts of a sawmill. Occasionally, a set of night stands are
waiting to be created from the rafters of an abandoned barn."
The local craftsman started making his wood creations on a mobile home front porch. That
front porch became a workshop and the business continued to grow as neighbors told other
neighbours about his talent. The skilled woodworker took his long-time interest in working with
wood and, in 2014, he moved D. L. Creations to 75761 Bluewater Highway, near the Bayfield
Foodland store. The craftsman -businessman has a large showroom, has added a mill, and has
reinvigorated the former Captain's Cove building on Hwy 21 at the village's south end. The
popular custom woodwork firm in Bayfield includes work by Loerchner as well as two local
carvers. Unique pieces have included everything from a carving of Uncle Sam to other
treasures. The amazing array of woodwork in the showroom includes benches, chairs, dining
tables, and bedroom suites.
In the early days, the wood artist worked on smaller projects such as end tables but after the
growing success of the business the woodworker was soon creating 15 -feet -long dining tables.
"When I started out it was a lot of smaller stuff but the scale of the projects has increased," the

The Ausable Bayfield Maitland Valley Drinking Water Source Protection Region (ABMVDWSP)
has named new supervisors for the program in this region. Mary Lynn MacDonald and Donna
Clarkson have worked for the program for a number of years and they will jointly oversee the
local program as Program Co -Supervisors.
They are replacing Geoffrey Cade, who has recently been promoted to Water and Planning
Manager, with Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA). The new program supervisors
bring knowledge of: the local area; best practices for industrial, institutional, agricultural, and
residential properties; and the drinking water source protection program through Ontario's
Clean Water Act, 2006.
MacDonald joined the source protection program in this region in 2007 and facilitated a
successful learning program for multi -stakeholder community working groups before assuming
other source protection responsibilities - most recently in her capacity as a municipal risk
management official for the program.

Preserving wetlands in their natural state can help
limit financial impacts of flooding in rural and urban
areas by nearly 40 per cent, according to a report, by
the Intact Centre, released in 2017. Tens of millions
of dollars in damages could be saved by preserving
wetlands, according to the report, called, "When the
Big Storms Hit: The Role of Wetlands to Limit Urban
and Rural Flood Damage."
Natalia Moudrak (Submitted photo)
Natalia Moudrak, the lead author of the report and
the director of the Infrastructure Adaptation Program
at the Intact Centre, is to present on the topic on
Thursday, March 22 at Ironwood Golf Club. Moudrak
is the keynote speaker at the annual Conservationist
of the Year and awards evening hosted by Ausable
Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA).
The speaker has worked with people from many
sectors, including municipalities, conservation
authorities, insurers, developers and homebuilders,
to develop programs aimed at climate adaptation and
flood risk reduction. Moudrak is a recipient of the
2018 Canada's Clean50 Emerging Leader award,
which honors Canadian leaders in areas of
sustainable development and clean capitalism. She
is also a member of the Canadian Water and
Wastewater Association climate change committee,
the National Research Council's committee on flood
resilience, and represents Canada as subject matter
expert on stormwater management at the ISO/TC224
standard development committee.
The presenter said she is looking forward to sharing
information on the role wetlands can play in reducing
flood damage and minimizing risk.
"I am thrilled to have the opportunity to present at the
Ausable Bayfield Conservation event and to share
how simply leaving natural infrastructure intact can
be an effective means to protect communities from
flooding," she said.
Awards evening organizers say they are honored to
have such an accomplished presenter speak at the
partner appreciation evening.

Carl never married and waited for Lucy most of his
life while he farmed. They were very happy

The Bayfield Town Hall Heritage Society (BTHHS)
hosted their eighth annual Soup's On event on
Sunday, Feb. 18. More than 300 people crowded
the hall to sample the 19 competitor's soups.
This year the competition was done in two
sections - restaurants and organizations. Two
judges, Judy Keightley and Michael Potters, had
to sample the soups without knowing who had
made them. Keightley judged the restaurant
soups and Potters judged the organizations' tasty
submissions.
The following ten restaurants competed: The
Albion Hotel, The Docks Restaurant and Bar,
Renegades, Drift Restaurant, Highway Robbery,
Bayfield Berry Farm, The Lake House of Bayfield,
The Little Inn of Bayfield, The Black Dog Pub and
Bistro and Smackwater Jack's from Grand Bend.
When announcements were made at 4 p.m.
Keightley had awarded first place to the winning
restaurant: The Black Dog Pub and Bistro for their
Jamaican Pepperpot Soup. Honorable mentions
were given to The Lake House of Bayfield for their
Chicken Curry with Jasmine Rice and Highway
Robbery for their Corn Beef Minestrone.
Potters awarded first place to the organization.
This year the trophy went to the Bayfield Mews
with their Cream of Potato and Bacon Soup.

Chefs from The Little Inn of Bayfield and the new, The Lakehouse of Bayfield (former The Red Pump Restaurant)
were kept busy supplying samples of soups to the multitudes.
Bronwyn Bechard (centre) was among the many who lugged a mug to the annual Soup's On evem - helping the
Bayfield Town Heritage Society in their crusade to lessen waste.
Honorable mentions went to Trinity Anglican
Church for their Parsnip Soup with Green Apple
and the Bayfield Optimists for their Madras
Chicken Curry Soup.
More than 300 people came to the town hall over
the two hours of tastings to sample the delicious
soups prepared by local organizations and
restaurants. The nine organizations represented
were: Bayfield Farmer's Market, Bayfield and
Chamber of Commerce, Bayfield Lions' Club,
Bayfield Mews, Pioneer Park, Trinity Anglican
Church, the International Croquet Club, Bayfield
Optimists and Bayfield Food Bank (Feed My
Sheep).
When the ballots were totalled the people had
chosen Renegades for their Coconut Chicken and
Sweet Potato Soup as their favorite restaurant
soup. The Lake House of Bayfield and The Albion
Hotel with their Turduken Chowder were runners
up. Among the organizations, The Bayfield
Optimists' soup was selected as the prize-winning
soup. Runners up were Trinity Anglican Church
and The Bayfield Mews.
The BTHHS would like to express its gratitude to
the restaurants and organizations that
participated.
"You are all winners. The smells and tastes in the
building were phenomenal! This event is definitely
becoming one of the community highlights as
demonstrated by the enormous turnout of taste
testers! We are also beginning to notice that there
are more out of town visitors dropping in as well.
Welcome to you all and we look forward to seeing
you back next year," said Pat Baker, event
organizer.
She added, "Thank you as well to all the people
who remembered to bring their mugs. Some even
brought their own spoons which meant that we
had minimal garbage. Even the soup bowls and
spoons that we provided were compostable.
Bayfield takes its environmental initiatives quite
seriously and appreciates your support."

Another day, another shooting in an American school, but don't think our Canadian children aren't affected by it. One of my first-
year Brownies, who attends a Huron County public school, recently had the following conversation with her mother:
"Mom, when we had an intruder alert drill I was in the bathroom but I knew to get up on to the toilet so if the shooter ever came
in the bathroom and looked under the door they wouldn't see my feet."
This girl is only seven years -old. When I was seven my biggest concern was if someone would consider trading their
butterscotch pudding cup for half of my Salmon sandwich at lunch. - Melody
