The brisk morning at
Egmondville Park featured les-
sons from Connell, where she
invited everybody July 11 for a
free training session. The event
included fitness education
involving burpees, lunges and
squats, which Connell com-
bined into a partnered work-
out.
orkout. Males and females from
the ages of 20-65 years old
made an appearance to study
what Connell calls a "func-
tional movement performed at
high intensity:'
• Take a walk down Main St.
in Seaforth, there is some-
thing unusual about the
strip -one word comes to
mind -development.
• There was something unu-
sual about the strip one word
came to mind, development.
The town boomed with ren-
ovations and new entrepre-
neurs looking to liven up the
downtown core. Brown paper
covered front windows of
companies with the words
"Coming Soon" plastered
across the entrance.
BIA chair, Melody Hodgson,
said since she moved here in
2009 and that was the most
modified she's saw the town.
She also mentioned that "we
struggle with the perception
this is a retirement commu-
nity, I think there's room for
everyone, not just retirees:'
• Council passed a new update
involving an animal control by-
law on July 20, which was ini-
tially passed back in 2001. The
major areas that changed
extensively were that there is
now a list of prohibited ani-
mals and potential rat farms
will be regulated in the future.
"This will give the animal
control officer a firmer author-
ity like removing snakes or
dangerous spiders or that sort
of thing," said Brussels Ward
councillor, David Blainey.

diabetes, extreme tiredness
and blurry vision, did not

prevent a Shelbourne man
from winning the crown a sec-
ond time at the Seaforth Coun-
try Classic.
This feeling is familiar, said
David Markle, the 2013 and
now 2015 Seaforth Country
Classic champion. He and
more than fifty golfers were cut
down to 22 after two days. Last
Saturday marked the third day
of golfing, which meant a
champion would be capped.
Not only would they be
crowned, it also came with a
brand new black blazer and a
$10,000 life-size cheque.

•The words "Rallying 4
Rebecca" printed on T-shirts is
becoming a trend and helping
a young Seaforth child fight the
tough battle of cancer.
Three kids from the neigh-
bourhood decided to cut their
play short by selling lemonade,
cookies and other baked goods
with all proceeds going to
Rebecca Kipfer-Pryce.
They opened up shop in
front of the Optimal Health
Chiropractic building
equipped with a table, full-size
tent and the drive to help a
friend in need.
• The Expositor came across a
photograph of four mysterious
nurses; a Seaforth woman
believes she can place a name
under two of the four nurses.
This 90 -year-old piece of Sea -
forth history generated interest
all around Huron County. Peo-
ple from Zurich, Bayfield and
other locations have emailed
and called numerous times
with bits of information. All in
hope of possibly leading to the
identities of the graduating class
of 1925.
• Hope is the feeling that some-
thing can be had or events will
turn out for the best - the per-
fect way to describe the out-
look of a local teenager.

ter, is one of five Canadians
who were scouted to take part

• Hats off from the Huron East
Fire Department to the resi-
dents of Seaforth and the
nearby areas for following the
proper precautions during the
intense thunderstorms.
The clouds twisted and
turned to a darkish colour pur-
ple August 2. The wind howled
and by the looks of outside, it
seemed something cata-
strophic was in the midst of
happening. Environment Can-
ada sent out several warnings of
a severe thunderstorm making
itswayto southwestem Ontario
A call went out three times
in Seaforth and most of the
dangers involved tree
branches and falling hydro
lines. Seaforth's district chief,
Tom Philips, said the appear-
ance of the storm was "very
dangerous looking and there
was a chance of a tomado:'
•A nocturnal bird of prey
swooped in on some cow
manure and ended up in the
surprise of its life.
After finishing some crops in
the field, dairy farmer Heather
Ritzema, noticed a large male
owl covered in liquid manure,
by the movements of the bird,
she knewitwas upset or injured.
She decided to call
Salthaven Wildlife Rehabilita-
tion and Education Centre, an
organization that's been reha-
bilitating animals for more
than 30 years. The experienced
organization told the Seaforth
farmer that she would have to
bring the owl in, which meant
capture it and deliver it.
Ritzema regrouped with her
husband and a couple friends
from work. Her husband put a
pair of welding gloves on and
picked the bird up and placed
it in an old dog crate.
The bird survived and even-
tuallywas let free into the wild.
• In South Africa making it to a
destination can be a difficult
task, especially if you don't
have a mode of transporta-
tion. Thanks to the Seaforth
Lions Club that pickle has
been sorted out for some peo-
ple with a fresh set of wheels.
Last August, the Seaforth
Lions Club donated 49 pedal
bikes to the people of Cape
Town, South Africa and the
entire organization in Ontario
gave 497 bicycles in total.
•The Ontario Ministry of
Health and Long -Term Care
donated a breath of fresher air
to the Seaforth Community
Hospital.
The Health Infrastructure
Renewal Fund (HIRF) is a pro-
ject approval process, which
distributes infrastructure
renewal grants. This year's
grant awarded $194,000 to Sea-
forth's hospital. The lump
sums primary purpose is for
the HVAC replacement/air-
handling system.
