Sparks, Brownies and Guides with Bayfield Guiding are working on badges supporting a
Healthy Eating theme and part of the program was a tour of the new Bayfield Foodland.
The girls visited the store on the evening of Jan. 28 and were given star treatment. Dave
Mackechnie, bakery and deli manager, showed them around the bakery and deli and also
shared his knowledge on safe food handling practices. Joe Lubbers, meat manager, showed
the girls what his job entails from cutting ribs and extruding hamburger to packaging and
labeling the various meats for sale.
The members of Bayfield Guiding spent some time exploring the produce section discovering a
variety of fruits and vegetables they may not have tried before. And then Owner Brad
Maidment, and his wife, Melissa, prepared some of these foreign fruits and vegetables for the
girls to taste test. They finished up by trying a selection of gourmet cheeses.
Bayfield Foodland owner Brad Maidment assisted Bayfield Brownie Riley Arthur in checking out some peanut
butter. At the end of their tour the Bayfield Guiding members got to check out their own groceries that their
leaders had shopped for. The food was later donated to the Bayfield Foodbank.
After a peek behind the scenes and a tour through the Health and Wellness Section of the
store the girls had an opportunity to work the cash register with a little help from the
storeowner. The girls' leaders picked out cereal, beans, soup, powdered milk, peanut butter,
cheese slices, tetra juice pack, individually packaged teas and hot chocolate that the units then
purchased as a donation to the Bayfield Foodbank. This provided a learning opportunity for the
girls to understand what the local food banks greatest needs are and how important it is to
make healthy choices for those who make use of it.
The meeting concluded with a little treat from the bakery — sweet treats in moderation
alongside healthy eats — now that's a fun way to earn a badge!
RESIDENTS ENCOURAGED TO HAVE
THEIR SAY AT OPEN HOUSE
Bayfield residents and business owners — it's your turn to have your say! On Feb. 5 (snow date

village aspect of the Bluewater Community Improvement Plan (CIP) at an Open House.
In addition to comments the Open House will help establish a physical area within Bayfield that
the community feels should receive financial incentives for improvement. What is meant by
physical area? Organizers note that on a map a continuous line must be drawn enclosing the
one area (streets and property) in the village that needs the improvement. Participants may
"Soup's On" will run from 2-4 p.m. (voting will end at
3:30 p.m.). The cost to sample as many soups as

LANDSCAPE PAINTINGS AND MANIPULATED MUD
PHOTOS AND STORY BY MELODY
FALCONER -POUNDER
More than 30 people attended all or part of the
first in a monthly series of events called
"Saturdays at the Library" on Jan. 31.

The art of manipulating mud was of interest to a lot of people who stopped in to the Bayfield
Library mid-day on Saturday.
Art Dadd and others examined one of the sample pots provided by Tony Eyamie at the pottery demonstration.
Clay Artist Tony Eyamie brought several examples of basic shapes finished with a variety of glazing techniques
to the demonstration held at the Bayfield Library mid-day on Saturday.
The first installment organized by the Friends of
the Bayfield Library (FOBL) featured the talents of
artist Joan Bailey and clay artist Tony Eyamie.
The duo own Patina Studio just up the street from
the library.
Bailey shared several techniques she uses to
create her intricate landscapes including throwing
paint on the canvas with a toothbrush. Eyamie
offered up with humor the fun of making pottery
by throwing two basic shapes as well as talking
about different and sometimes accidental glazing
techniques.
On Feb. 28, the "Saturdays at the Library" series
will continue with a presentation by Kevin and
Nancy Kale. The couple will share their
knowledge of The Home Exchange Process by
describing their five-week home exchange
experience in Ireland in 2014.
The event will be held at the Bayfield Library and
will run from noon to 1:30 p.m. There is no charge
to attend.
Eyamie shared the story of how an error on the wheel
proved serendipitous for the potter as a "plant collar" was
invented and it is now a popular seller at Patina.

May 2, 1986 is just a day on the calendar of time for many but for me it is the date that changed the direction that my life's path
would follow. It was a big day. I got to take the car to school and as our family only had one vehicle that was a big deal in itself.
But without it I would have been late for my first shift at the Bayfield Village Inn.
I was greeted that afternoon by Mark, the assistant manager, and quickly introduced to Candy who was given the task of
showing me around. Now if anyone knows Candy you know she is the definition of a whirlwind. She showed me the rooms,
how to check people in, how to wash and fold the laundry, the daily prep chores before dinner service and the specials menu
all in the half hour prior to the restaurant opening for the evening meal.
The assistant chef in the kitchen stood back and quietly observed our interaction for a few minutes until he interrupted and
asked me, "If my head was spinning yet?"
It was. But I tried not to let it show. And all went very well except for the part where I told the couple at my first table the specials before they were even
seated. They just stood there and looked awkward while I prattled on about the Catch of the Day.
I know, I know," I said to Candy once I was safely behind the bar and out of earshot of the table. "Let them sit down first then tell them the specials."
Working at the Bayfield Village Inn helped me put myself through college and realize my dream of earning a diploma in Print Journalism. It introduced me
to many of the people in this village as well as the numerous repeat summer visitors that like me share a love for the community. Countless co-workers are
still some of my very best friends today. It provided me with life skills and I shared these with so many. Chances are if you can fold a queen bed sheet all
on your own with ease you learned it while working at what the staff liked to call the "BVI".
That red brick ranch style building on the curve just North of the village became my home. A few years after first being introduced I made a life there with a
husband, two teens, two cats and a cocker spaniel. It was my safe place to fall.
This brings me to yet another significant date Jan. 30, 2015. The Bayfield Village Inn has been sold, is now closed and will open under new ownership and
a new name in May. Ten thousand and five hundred days later, sporting a few grey hairs but hopefully still as young at heart as I was when I first walked in
— we turned out the lights and walked out the door. It was a very big day. — Melody
Ideas and contributions to the Bayfield Breeze are always welcome.
