Brown sends best wishes to Judy Roth as she will

"The Bayfield community is sad to say goodbye to
this lovely store but the good news is that Judy will
be rejoining us at the market beginning Sept. 7,"
Brown said.
She added, "if you've yet to visit Corrine Everson

The next chapter for 13 The Square is yet to be written as the home to The Spa in Bayfield for the past 20
years is now for sale and an "auction" of contents will be held on Sept. 1.
People driving and walking by The Spa in Bayfield will have noticed that a "For Sale" sign is on
the lawn. The business is now closed. McTaggart is selling off the contents of the house and all
of the items that made it a functioning spa. She has enlisted, "Sell My Stuff' based out of
London to help. They will be holding an "auction" on the property starting at 9 a.m. on Sept. 1.
It will be a bitter sweet day both for the owner of the spa and the woman running the sale.
"She has been coming to the spa every October for the last 15 years with her girlfriends and
when I contacted her to see if she'd run the event she said, 'Oh no, where are we going to go
now?"'
All who attend the sale will be given a number and they will be allowed into the house 20 at a
time to browse. All items will be priced and people will have to purchase what they want on the
spot — a sold sticker will then be placed on the item.
Once all the dust settles, perhaps someone walking by will, like McTaggart did all those years
ago, think that they too can make the space happy again and then the next chapter in the tale
of 13 The Square will be written.

SUMMER PROGRAM PLANTS SEEDS
PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY FALCONER -POUNDER
Janneke Vorsteveld (centre) and the youth who took part in her summer program this August took to the
shade in Clan Gregor Square.
Janneke Vorsteveld, the educator behind "Seeds Rooted in Youth" held a summer program
from Aug. 13-18 using Bayfield as home base.
The 10 youngsters, aged eight to 12, enrolled in the program got a taste of hiking and
orienteering. They also developed their outdoor skills ending the week with an overnight
wilderness camp on the River Road Brewing property off Bayfield River Road.
Vorsteveld tapped into the talents of local businesses to enhance the youth experiences. They
visited Firmly Rooted Farm and Red Cart Farm to learn where their food comes from. They
visited Ferguson Apiaries to learn about bees and how honey is produced as well as making
bee homes and honey butter. They learned how to fish with members of the Bayfield Anglers
Association. They also took part in a drumming circle with Bayfield resident, Maggie Brennan
and met with a monarch butterfly expert to learn how they can help this troubled species.
She credits many businesses and individuals in the community for helping make the summer
programming a success including the Optimist Club of Bayfield. She also noted that Highway
Robbery Deli and Sandwich Shop was kind enough to donate sandwiches to any of the youth
that needed a lunch throughout the week.
Due to the success of the summer programming, Vorsteveld is looking forward to offering day
programs on PA Days as well as an overnight experience during March Break in 2019.

Through basic education and continuing learning, the RPN possesses knowledge relevant to

In summary, RPNs play a major role in the clinic. Not only do they have to have the specific
skills and abilities to be able to perform their jobs, but also have to exercise a professional and
compassionate approach to patients and their work.
They have to follow the care plan devised by supervising staff members and must be able to
work in a team environment. Being able to prioritize required tasks, have proficient computer
skills and exercise critical thinking are also important abilities on the RPNs resume.
150,000 VISITORS IN FIRST YEAR
Cowbell Brewing Co. recently welcomed Carey
Oakes, of London, ON, the 150,000th guest at
their destination craft brewery and restaurant in
Blyth.
Cowbell opened on Aug. 7, 2017, and in the
past 12 months has been welcoming guests
from across Huron County and Southwestern
Ontario, as well as from across Canada, the
United States and over 30 countries.
Wayne Newton, Brews News and London Free
Press journalist, describes Cowbell as, "The
No.1 craft brewery in Canada to visit."
"We are humbled by the enthusiasm and the
response to the beer, the stories and this farm
destination," said Grant Sparling, Chief
Development officer. "We are thrilled to have
Grant Sparling, Chief Development officer, at welcomed over 1 b0,000 guests in our first year,

yourself from bites:
• Wear light-colored, long-sleeved shirts, long pants
and closed -toe shoes
• Use an insect repellant that has been approved by
Health Canada and always read and follow the
manufacturer's instructions
• Check the screens in doors and windows to ensure
there are no tears or holes
• Disturb or eliminate any mosquito breeding grounds
on your property.
• Dump any standing water in places such as bird
baths, buckets, old tires, pet water dishes and
gutters.
For most people, the risk of getting infected with
West Nile virus is low. However, people can be at
greater risk of serious health effects if they are over
the age of 50, have a chronic disease such as cancer
or diabetes, or have weakened immune systems.
Most people infected with West Nile Virus experience
no symptoms or have flu-like symptoms such as
fever, headache, stiff neck, weak muscles, mild rash,
or swollen glands.
In more rare and severe cases, symptoms may
include severe headache, stiff neck, high fever,
difficulty swallowing, vomiting, loss of consciousness,
loss of coordination, nausea and muscle weakness
and paralysis.
Mosquito activity decreases with cooler
temperatures, but mosquitoes remain active until a
significant frost event occurs.

The Horseless Carriage Club of America came to
the village on Saturday, Aug. 25, as part of their
West Coast tour of Southern Ontario. Members of
the Bayfield Lions' Club were pleased to be asked
to provide their lunch in Clan Gregor Square, and
looked forward to seeing 26 cars that were all
over 100 years old.
Unfortunately, the weather refused to cooperate
and about two-thirds of the cars did not make the
trip. The rain became so heavy that the Lions
picked up the tents and barbecues and walked
them down the street to the Bayfield Lions'
Community Building. The very wet travelers in the
eight cars that arrived were more than happy to
get into a nice dry building and have a hot meal.

In addition to Windmill Lake Wake and Eco Park, the horseless carriages were scheduled to make stops in
Bayfield at Clan Gregor Square, Cowbell Brewery in Blyth and the CNR School on Wheels in Clinton.

The Lions would like to thank the Bayfield and
Area Chamber of Commerce for their promotion
and support, Megan Blakes for her poster design
and her help serving, Nathan Hammond and
Huron Fireplaces for help with cooking, and Hill &
Hill Farms and Bill Dowson for providing the corn
for the lunch.
Windmill Lake Wake and Eco Park was an early morning
stop on The Horseless Carriage Club of America tour on
Aug. 25.
Despite the rain every aspect of these early cars was
fascinating to look at.

LAKE HURON
14EAL EYFAT ' t.rN1'x5f
So Labour Day is upon us. Perhaps summer goes by so quickly because we try to squeeze out every bit of enjoyment we can
get from it. Here are my summer top six moments:
1. Concerts & Plays — We are ever so fortunate to have talented musicians & actors delivered practically to our front door.
Three concerts at the Bayfield Town Hall and one production on the Huron Country Playhouse stage (with another family -
friendly production on the horizon for this weekend) made for some terrific entertainment.

2. Horse Racing — I have wanted to go to the Clinton Raceway on a Sunday afternoon for a long, long time. Finally, this
summer it happened. I hadn't been to a horse race since I was a kid and used to go with my grandmother and her best friend.
We used to bet pennies amongst the three of us. I'd pick the horses with the best names and lineage — my betting strategy
hasn't changed — although I increased my bet to a toonie. It was a super fun way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
3. Graham -cation — Having our grandson visit for a week is always a summer highlight. Mini -golf and ice cream cones are
staples of his time with us and this year we added Behind the Bars at the Huron County Gaol. I have never seen his eyes get
bigger as he talked to the characters & discovered what it would have been like to be in a jail cell. Priceless!
4. Family Gathering — Our niece's 40th birthday party was a great excuse for the whole family to gather in a backyard lakeside
oasis for one evening and hit the dance floor. Family from England and California joined the more local contingent and, yes, we
took a family photo — who knows when that will ever happen again?
5. Guiding adventures — Even in the summer I manage to sneak in some time with my ladies. The older girls enjoyed a three-day visit to Toronto where
they learned how to navigate the subway and soaked up the culture on a walking tour as well as exploring the ROM, AGO, BATA Shoe Museum and
Ripley's Aquarium. Then it was the Guides turn with a day trip to Windmill Lake Wake and Eco Park to try their skill at wakeboarding and the new aqua
obstacle course. Too much fun!
6. Peaceful reflection — I could add several day trips, yard sales, flea markets and barbecues to my list of summer fun, however, drinking in that twilight
time before the wishing star appears may be my top moment of the season. Time spent sitting on our enclosed front porch, where a gentle breeze
generally blows through the open window, while watching the last vestiges of sunset color drift over the neighboring tree line with the only sound the roar
of the cicadas from their perches in the Spruce trees above will never be time wasted.
Happy Labour Day all! — Melody
