Johnathan Blake at the helm of the T.S. Playfair as it sailed from Bayfield to Penetanguishene, ON. (Submitted
photo)
On the evening of July 10 the Pathfinder and Playfair sailed into the port of Bayfield. Three
days later they sailed out with two stowaways. Well, actually they were the winners of an essay
contest for a Tall Ship adventure — Johanna Blake, 16, and her brother Jonathon, 18.
Toronto Brigantine Inc. offered the Bayfield Optimist Club the opportunity to run a contest for
two youth to sail on a tall ship for one week when they left the port of Bayfield on July 13 to sail
to Penetanguishene. An essay contest was organized and the winner got to invite a friend to
go on the adventure with her. Johanna, from the Brussels area, was the winner and she invited
her brother to join her.
Now back on dry land Jonathon composed a note of thanks to the Bayfield Optimist Club as
well as to the whole community that came together to organize the Tall Ships Festival. The
following is his letter:
FROM JONATHON:
And the Tall Ships adventure begins... Johanna
and Jonathan Blake were photographed prior to
boarding the T.S. Playfair when it was docked in
Bayfield Harbour on July 13. (Submitted photo)
Lead Trainees with the Toronto Brigantine!
It's been a busy few days and I have not been
able to sit down and write a proper thank you
letter until now. My sister and I would like to say
thanks to the Bayfield Optimist Club and all who
provided us with the opportunity to sail on the T.S.
Playfair! It was a great experience to sail from
Bayfield to Penetang on the blue waters of Lake
Huron and Georgian Bay.
Throughout the adventure, my sister and I learned
many sailing skills, such as how to helm without
always looking at the compass, how to safely
climb the rigging so we could work on the sails,
and how to stay awake/warm while on night
watch. We became familiar with the corresponding
actions to phrases such as "tacking the jib", "stand
by sheets and braces", and "dousing the sails".
When we were not on watch, our Petty Officers
taught us how to tie common sailing knots, and
gave us other knowledge that we were tested on
when we docked in Penetang. We are officially
VISION FOR BEACH
The committee working to maintain Bayfield's Blue
Flag eco -label is inviting people to a community
meeting for the public to share their vision for the
Bayfield Main Beach.
The community meeting will take place on July 31
from 7-9 p.m. at the Bayfield Town Hall. Meeting
organizers say the committee is interested in hearing
the public's views about the Bayfield Main Beach.
The committee is asking for local residents' help to
identify local issues and needs relating to water
quality, environmental management, safety, and
services.
It's an honor to achieve the Blue Flag designation,
said Bruce Grant, acting chief administrative officer
with the Municipality of Bluewater.
"Bayfield Main Beach is a precious resource in
Bayfield," he said. "We invite community members to
join us to share their hopes and dreams for Bayfield
Main Beach."
The Blue Flag Beach Management Committee
includes the Municipality of Bluewater, the County of
Huron, and Ausable Bayfield Conservation.
Light refreshments are to be provided. Space is
limited. To register, please contact Arlene Parker,
Municipality of Bluewater, at 519 236-4351, Ext. 235.
The Bayfield Library is hosting the TD Summer
Reading Club this summer but attendance so far has
been subpar. It is hoped that more children aged four
to 12 years will want to join in the fun of the "Eureka!"
themed meetings held every Wednesday afternoon
until Aug. 22.
There are two one-hour sessions to choose from
starting at 1:30 p.m. or 2:30 p.m. Children can
indulge in games and crafts and reading too!

First Friday is nearly here again. The third event will
be held on Aug. 1. This is a new Bayfield and Area
Chamber of Commerce (BACC) initiative that
encourages people to get out and explore the artsy
side of Main Street.
On the first Friday of each month, people can enjoy
an evening of art by walking the Main Street as
artists will be showcasing their work in a number of
locations. Organizers note that attendees should on
the lookout for white balloon markers to denote the
exhibits. Each artist will have their own exhibition and
will be available to talk to and explain their art.

Week 31 Issue 265
I was especially glad that I brought my binoculars on the trip, because it was great being able
to clearly see the cliffs as we approached Wiarton, or the lighthouses as we entered Georgian
Bay. Using the binoculars we spotted buoys as well as the H.M.S Pathfinder which was always
ahead of us. It only rained once while I was on deck, and so I did get some use out of my rain
gear. I forget which day it was, but midway through the week the winds really picked up one
afternoon. Even though we were told the tipping point of the ship was 92 degrees, it was still
exciting and a little bit nerve-wracking to be on such an angle with waves splashing over the
lower side of the ship! In my opinion the weather was perfect, and when we went swimming at
Beausoleil Island, the cool water felt really refreshing.
Johanna Blake shared this picture she took aboard the Playfair near Penetanguishene, ON. Along with her
brother, she also offered a big thank you to the Bayfield Optimist Club for sending her on the Tall Ships noting
that she really enjoyed herself and learned a great deal.
That week of sailing on the T.S. Playfair is securely on my highlight list of this summer. I would
definitely recommend the Toronto Tall Ships Adventures to anyone aged 13-18. This was my
first and last year to sail with this program as I am turning 19. But I will not hesitate at another
opportunity to go sailing, whether with friends, family, or an organization such as Toronto
Brigantine.

"SUNSET ON SUMMER BBQ" AN EVENT
FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY
Summer time is a sacred time of year in Bayfield. Strolling down Main Street with an ice cream
cone, digging your toes into the warm sandy beach or watching the sail boats glide by from
Pioneer Park are annual traditions loved by visitors and locals alike. With only one month of
summer remaining now is the time to relish all of the simple pleasures of summer. This year

The Sunset on Summer BBQ, on Aug. 30, is a celebration of the last weekend of summer
holidays. Families can sway to the delightful music of The Little Surf Band, enjoy a succulent
half chicken BBQ dinner with all the fixings and ice cream bars for dessert, and relax in the
beer tent while reminiscing about those wonderful summer memories enjoyed in the village.
The proceeds of the Sunset on Summer BBQ will be used to build a capital fund for the
replacement of the Bayfield Town Hall roof, the maintenance of which is one of the most
significant maintenance requirements of this historic building.
The BBQ will be served on-site at the Bayfield Town Hall from 4-8 p.m., with takeout dinners
available. In the event of rain the event will be relocated to the Bayfield Arena. Tickets for
adults are $15 and tickets for children are $7. This event is the perfect way to wrap up another

For the past several years the Bayfield Woodland Trail has been used for the celebratory walk by London
Pilgrims of the Camino. (Photos by Jack Pal)
On July 27, Bayfield River Valley Trail Association (BRVTA) hike leaders once again guided
two walks for the annual EI Camino Pilgrims of London as part of their annual St. James' Day
celebration.
Approximately 40 hikers participated in this event; many of the walkers have completed the full
length of the EI Camino, some 700 KMs through Spain. There are also a number of other
routes, through France and Portugal, all ending at the cathedral in Santiago de Compostella.
Every July 25 people who have walked the 1200 year-old EI Camino Trail in Northwestern
Spain meet to celebrate their pilgrimage by having a walk and sharing a meal of Galician soup
and bread. For the past several years the Bayfield Woodland Trail, approximately 6 KMs in
length, has been used for the celebratory walk by London Pilgrims of the Camino.
Those people who hiked the Woodland Trail on Sunday all have one thing in common. They have walked all or
a portion of the the 1200 year-old EI Camino Trail in Northwestern Spain.
The pilgrim path to Santiago de Compostella in north-western Spain is centuries old, stunningly
beautiful and deeply transformative. This route represents the most popular Christian
pilgrimage anywhere in the world. It consists of a large network of ancient pilgrim routes
stretching across Europe and all coming together in Santiago.
The local walk for the EI Camino Pilgrims of London is yet another fun way for the BRVTA to
contribute back to the community at large. For those people new to the notion of trail hiking, the

Huron Bruce MP Ben Lobb handed out Canada
flags to the members of the Angel Voice Choir
and their entourage from Beijing, China when they
visited Bayfield on July 25.
The 40 plus group began their visit to the village
with a picnic lunch in Pioneer Park. Members of
the Bayfield Historical Society dressed in Victorian
era costumes to meet them — Admiral Bayfield
himself made an appearance.
Following the picnic, the 22 children, aged eight to
12 years, and their caregivers and interpreters
took the stairs down to the beach to walk in the
sand and explore the shoreline. The choir director
and some of the older folk went barefoot getting
their feet wet in the lake. The group then
descended on the Bayfield Farmers' Market and
caused quite a stir. Their camera phones were put
to good use as they cooed over a baby and
embraced friendly canines. A few of the children
purchased fresh fruit. Tasting both freshly picked
peaches and blueberries brought smiles to the
children's faces as did a special treat of tarts and
juice served up by Joan Brady acting market
manager. An impromptu performance by the choir
under the direction of Chao Li delighted the
market shoppers.
In addition to touring Bayfield, the group also
visited the farm of Glen and Donna Greb.
Exeter was the first stop on the Angel Voice
Choir's Canadian tour. They performed at Trivitt
Memorial Church on July 24 as part of the Bach
Festival of Canada's Summer Concert Series and

in return their hosts in Exeter seemed quite happy
to show them some of the best that Huron County
has to offer.

Anyone who visited the Bayfield Farmers' Market early on
Friday afternoon with their canine buddy in tow found
themselves suddenly besieged by visitors from China. The
youth really enjoyed time with the dogs as well as
recording the moments for posterity.

So it happened again, this time to our neighbors to the south. An EF1 tornado struck Grand Bend on the evening of July 27th.
An EF1 tornado is the second weakest on the Fujita tornado intensity scale but that is no small comfort to the residents of the
community that had to deal with blocked roads, power outages and saw trees and power lines fall on their homes, businesses
and vehicles. The winds reached 155 to 175 KM an hour. The tornado measured 500 meters wide and covered a 5 KM path.
One injury was reported.
It could have been worse is a phrase we often use but the simple fact remains that another neighbor now faces both a time of
Melody Falconer -Pounder mourning and a time of rebuilding. They have to make those difficult calls to their insurance providers. They must clean up and
repair the physical damage as well as endure a new mental anguish every time the skies darken over the lake all while getting
on with life ... things our neighbors to the north know all to well. - Melody
