Heritage Music Festival – good to the last note!BY MARNI WALSH

Good to the last note, “It was a happening place at Centre Dufferin Recreation Complex for the 67th Heritage Music Festival (HMF) and Canadian Open Fiddle Championship,” says Shelburne Rotary President Sandra Gal-laugher, “with great crowds and a great line-up of music all weekend.”

“We had a great week!” adds HMF Co-

Chair Bobbi Ferguson. “The entertainment was top quality and the audiences loved our diverse collection of performers. I will be one of the fi rst to declare the weekend a suc-cess and with two years of HMF under our belt, we feel we are on the right track to take this festival into the future.”

“A large crowd danced the night away at the Wednesday night Jamboree,” says the Ro-tary President, and it was “the best step danc-

ing and fi ddle you will see at the Thursday night show with The Fitzgeralds.”

She reports, “The arena came alive with a large crowd who came out to see the John-son Crook Band and then many fans of Juno Award Winning Corb Lund and the Hurtin’ Albertans.

“It was a night of fun” and “Elvis, Saturday afternoon, entertained to a standing ovation.”

Over $1 million in damages estimatedfollowing Thursday blazeBY MICHELLE JANZEN

Damage is estimated to be at least $1 million following a huge blaze at a local wood processing plant last week.

A haze of smoke hanged over Shelburne on Thursday, August 10, as IK World Trading Compa-ny Ltd. was engulfed in fl ames.

This wood processing plant, which is located at 501 Main Street West, at the very west side of Shel-burne, manufactures and exports wood products for the automotive industry as well as hardwood

Authors bring a sense of place, time to Mulmur on SundayBY BROCK WEIR

There is a story behind every stitch in the Ca-nadian tapestry and writers bringing these stories to life are set to converge on Mulmur this Sunday, August 20, for the annual Authors in the Hills of Mulmur.

Featuring authors Hugh Brewster, Drew Hayden Taylor, Sandra Perron, and Robert Roten-berg, this year’s event – which is set to take place in a barn at 587146 Side Road 10 – focuses on “Canadians telling their stories.”

Celebrated thriller writer Robert Rotenberg, who is also a prominent Toronto-based criminal lawyer, will take those in attendance well beyond the walls of the barn to consider their “sense of place.”

“People say Toronto is kind of a character in my books,” says Rotenberg, whose latest, The Heart of the City, is set in the bustling, insular world of Kensington Market where growth comes to call. “The big issue in the city right now is this ex-traordinary construction boom. Toronto has been turned from a city of homes to a city of condos and more people are now living in multiple dwell-ings than in single family dwellings and the prices are going through the ceiling.”

This very “Toronto” problem forms the back-drop of the story as protests greet a condo devel-opment slated for the edge of the bustling neigh-bourhood.

“I’ve never understood why so many TV shows, fi lms, and books do what I call ‘Toron-to-lite’ where Toronto is more of a backdrop,” says Rotenberg, who just fi nished co-writing an upcoming episode of the very Toronto-centric Murdoch Mysteries. “What I fi nd from the emails and reviews I get, especially from Canadian read-ers, they love reading about their own country and their own city.”

It took Rotenberg 10 years to write his fi rst novel which, unpublished, is still lying in his desk

drawer. When he zeroed in on one particular char-acter from his early works, a lawyer, he saw the value in the age-old advice of writing what you know.

Eventually, with another book under his belt, he got a call from his agent, who bore some welcome news: his next effort was garnering multiple bids from New York publishers.

“It was a pipe dream, I had no way of knowing if I would break through, but then the book sold in nine different languages and the moment she called I knew it was actually going to happen,” he says. “The lives of criminal lawyers and detec-tives in Toronto is the life I live every day. Being a criminal lawyer is really storytelling and I would say being a lawyer has made me a better writer, and being a writer has made me a better lawyer.”

While Rotenberg’s presentation will focus on metaphorically breaking down the barn walls to consider “a sense of place in novels,” children’s author Hugh Brewster will take down a few planks of his own, asking book lovers to consider not a sense of place, but rather a sense of time.

In recent years, much of Brewster’s writing has focused on making the theme of Canadians in War accessible to young readers.

When he started that writing journey, Brewster says there wasn’t much of a market for it, but over the last 20 years, interest has surged.

“It interesting that it is another generation who have become interested in this,” he says. “Now, battlefi eld tours, visiting Vimy Ridge and explor-ing people in one’s family or community who were in the wars has become a big thing. Anyone who says Canadian history is dull, some of the stories that have come out of Canadians in War belie that.

“Some people assume the audience is small boys who like to read about things blowing up, big guns and that type of thing, but that is really not the case; they are inspired by the self-sacrifi ce, the leadership, the bravery and the actual story of

the attacks, and so on. The last thing I want to do is glorify war in any way and I don’t think I do that. I want people to engage with this part of Ca-nadian history.”

This weekend, Brewster says they have been asked to talk about the Canada 150 commemora-tion and he has taken this cue to heart.

“I will take [guests] back a century and say while you’re sitting in this lovely barn, think back

to 100 years to poisoned gas, trenches, and gener-al misery on the front.”

But, he hastens to add with a chuckle, it sounds more uplifting than it is!

With mass amounts of logs, sawdust and fi n-ished wood products located on site, this fi re was spreading quickly and those on scene were work-ing tirelessly to keep it contained.

While on the scene, several explosions could be heard. With trailers full of wood in danger of going up, gas tanks on site that could potentially blow and the water running out in-between tanker fi ll ups it was a tense scene.

Five fi re departments battled the fi re, with Hon-eywood, Grand Valley, Orangeville, and Dundalk Fire departments are all assisting. Dufferin Coun-ty Paramedic Service were also on the scene and although there were no major injuries reported, two people, including one fi re fi ghter, were treat-ed at the scene by paramedics.

The cause of the fi re has not been determined.The Fire Marshal’s offi ce was notifi ed in the

midst of the blaze and Shelburne Police initiated an investigation, however this investigation will

continue jointly with the Shelburne and District Fire Department.

24 hours later, Shelburne and District Fire De-partment continued to work on the scene putting out hot spots, using heavy equipment to assist in the process.

Although, at press time, it was too early to es-tablish a fi nal dollar value to the loss of the build-ing, equipment and product in the fi re, damage is expected to be in excess of $1 million.

There were no injuries as a result of the inci-dent, and although there is signifi cant damage to the property, the fi re does not appear suspicious or the result of foul play.

The investigation continues.If anyone has any information in relation to this

case or any other matter, they are encouraged to contact the Shelburne Police Service at 519-925-3312 or anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or online at www.crimes-toppersdm.com.

BY DAVID TILSON, MPDUFFERIN-CALEDON

Credit unions and their branches exist in many Canadian communities, including here in Duffer-in-Caledon.

They provide important products and services to customers and are locally owned.

Last month, the Offi ce of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) clarifi ed how it in-terprets the Bank Act on the use of terms “bank,” “banker,” and “banking” by entities other than federally-charted banks.

As provincially-regulated fi nancial institutions, credit unions and caisses populaires have been told they fall under the blanket prohibition of these terms.

On the surface, this may seem insignifi cant; however, such a ban raises valid concerns about the impacts the prohibition will have for both credit unions and the thousands of Canadians who rely on their community-based service.

Credit unions and caisses populaires are im-portant and valuable contributors to many small and rural communities across Canada, including Dufferin-Caledon.

They have decades of experience using the terms outlined in the OFSI’s prohibition in the same way Canadians do – as popular terms to describe people’s dealings with regulated depos-

it-taking institutions. They’ve also worked closely with OSFI regarding acceptable terminology and have, in the past, been allowed to use terms, such as “bank with us,” “do your banking with a credit union,” etc.

However, following the recent action taken by the OFSI, credit unions and caisses populaires will have to stop using such terminology.

This blanket prohibition is draconian and rep-resents a clear departure from past practices.

As Martha Durdin, President of the Canadian Credit Union Association, has said, “OSFI has taken a position that is inconsistent with its best practices and with common sense.”

The ban on credit unions and caisses populaires from using banking terms to describe the services they offer raises concerns for the Offi cial Oppo-sition and for Canadians. It will result in market-place confusion, increased cost for credit unions that have to change signage, and a competitive disadvantage for credit unions.

We, the Offi cial Opposition, call on the Finance Minister, the Honourable Bill Morneau, to intro-duce changes to these regulations to allow credit unions to use the commonly-used banking termi-nology without penalty.

Such action would help to ensure a fair mar-ketplace and Canadians would be able to continue to receive the service they’ve come to expect and appreciate from their local credit unions.

Ottawa Journal:OSFI Regulations Impact on Credit Unions

BY SYLVIA JONES, MPP DUFFERIN-CALEDON

It is almost impossible to avoid them: those hy-dro ads telling you how the Liberals have fi xed the hydro crisis. These radio and online ads are paid for by your tax dollars. They are literally the government spending your money to convince you that their years of hydro mismanagement are now fi xed by a short-term Band-Aid solution that will cost up to $93 billion, according to Ontario’s independent Financial Accountability Offi cer.

The attempt of the government to spend your tax dollars to save their electoral fortunes is only on the rise. In fact, last year witnessed an approx-imately 66% increase in government spending on government advertising from just over $30 mil-lion to $50 million. This increase comes after the government gutted government advertising rules, watering down the Auditor General’s powers to reject ads that serve to promote the Wynne Liberal government. The increase also comes just before the provincial election. Coincidence? I think not.

The Auditor General has commented on the current hydro ads saying that “under the previ-ous legislation it would likely not have passed because it does convey a positive impression of the current government and it’s more like a pat-on-the-back type of advertisement.” Another ex-ample is that the government spent $8.1 million promoting the Ontario Retirement Pension Plan (ORPP), including during the Federal election campaign, and following the cancelation of the

ORPP, the government spent nearly $800,000 on radio ads promoting the federal CPP.

Not all government advertising is bad, in fact the PC Party has been advocating for the gov-ernment to spend its advertising dollars raising awareness about the growing fentanyl crisis. There are numerous important and pressing issues that the government could be spending your tax dollars on rather than ads seeking to boost their electoral fortunes.

Over a year ago the Government changed the fundraising rules after the Toronto Star revealed that cabinet ministers had secret annual party tar-gets of up to $500,000 apiece. The government was pressured into changing the law, because On-tarians know that it is wrong for the government to use its place in power and your money to bene-fi t the Liberal Party. The government changed the rules on fundraising, and it is time for the govern-ment to restore auditor general oversight of gov-ernment advertising.

Unfortunately, the Liberals voted down my Private Member’s Bill, End the Public Funding of Partisan Government Advertising Act, 2017. However, PC leader Patrick Brown has commit-ted a PC government to restoring Auditor General oversight over government advertising. It is time for the government to do the right thing and also make a commitment to non-partisan government advertising.

Visit my website www.sylviajonesmpp.ca and sign the petition in support of restoring oversight of government advertising.

Government advertising nearly doublesbefore the Election Year

CONTINUED FROM FRONT

At Monday night’s Council meeting, Mr. Egan’s seat was, offi cially, declared vacant and newly appointed Town Clerk, Jennifer Willoughby informed Council of its options for fi lling that seat, for the remainder of the term, of Council.

Under the Municipal Act, S.O.2001,c.25, the Council has three options for proceed-ing. They may choose to appoint someone from the 2014 election candidates, they may issue a call for nominees, or a By-Election can be called.

With little support for the fi rst and last options, Council chose to issue a call for nominees.

To qualify as a nominee, the candidate must be 18 years of age or older, they must be a Canadian citizen, they must either re-side in or own land in the Town of Shel-burne, or be the spouse of someone who does, and they must not be prohibited from voting under any other Act, or disqualifi ed from holding municipal offi ce.

When these qualifi cations have been met, the nominee must complete a Council Va-cancy Application Form and a Declaration of Qualifi cation, both of which are available from the Clerk’s Offi ce at Town Hall.

Applications will be accepted only until Thursday, September 14, 2017, at 2 p.m.

Candidates are also encouraged to submit a personal statement of qualifi cation, for consideration, to Council.

This resume, if you will, must be type-written, on 8.5x11 letter size paper and must be in 12 point type.

It must not be more than two pages long and must contain the candidates name and address. Any resume which does not cor-respond to these parameters, will not be accepted and will not be included inane Council meeting agenda. Neither will it be provided to Council, by the Clerk.

The Notice of Vacancy must be posted on the Town website and published in the local newspapers for a minimum of three consecutive weeks, following which a vote, by Special Council Meeting may be held, to fi ll the vacant seat.

In the case of Shelburne, that meeting will be held on October 2, 2017, in the Town Hall.

As the nominations are received and cer-tifi ed, the names will be posted on the Town website, as an unoffi cial list.

Once all nominations have been certifi ed

and the nomination period has expired, an offi cial list will then be posted on the Town website.

Once the Special Council Meeting has been called to order on October 2, each candidate will be given an opportunity to address the Council, for not more than 10 minutes, following which each Councillor may ask whatever two questions they feel are relevant, of the candidate.

Each candidate will come before Coun-cil, in private, while the remainder are se-questered in a separate room. The order of speaking will be determined by lot. Each candidate will be timed and not allowed to exceed their allotted time.

Once all the candidates have been heard, Council will proceed to a vote.

This vote will be publicly held.The Councillors will mark their votes

on a ballot as well as verbally register their vote.

If a candidate receives more than half the total number of votes available, they will be recognized as the winning candidate. How-ever, should no candidate receive more than that number, then the candidate with the lowest number of votes will be eliminated and the voting will continue in this man-ner until the candidate with the most votes does have a total of more than half the votes available.

In the case of a three way tie vote, the Clerk will, by lot, eliminate one candidate and the remaining two will face another vote. In the event of two candidate ending up in a tie vote, the Clerk will again elimi-nate one by lot. The fi nal winning candidate will be announced, by the Clerk and his or her appointment confi rmed by a By-law, by the Council.

The new Councillor will be administered the Oath of Offi ce, at the next regular Coun-cil meeting, on October 14, 2017 and will hold the seat until the end of the current term, that being, November 30, 2018.

On another note, it was brought up by Mayor Bennington that due to his 20 years of service to the community as a Councillor perhaps it would be appropriate to honour that commitment by renaming the Fire Hall to the Thomas Egan Fire Station.

As Tom sat on the Fire Board, for per-haps, his entire career, as a Councillor, it seemed an appropriate tribute.

This or other suggestions will be dis-cussed at a future Council meeting.

Process set in motion to fi ll late Councillor’s seat

Johnson Crook, a four-piece Toronto coun-

try/roots rock band were in Shelburne over the weekend, playing various songs from their debut album as part of the Town’s annu-

al Music Heritage Festival.The band was the opener for Corb Lund

this past Friday. The band consists of Noel

Johnson Crook play debut album at music festivalJohnson (rhythm guitars/vocals), brothers Nathan (lead guitar/mandolin/vocals) and Trevor Crook (drums/vocals) and Jared Craig (bass/vocals).

They recently released their debut album, “The Album” which consists of 12 songs written the past three years, and produced by Bill Bell at Metalworks studio.

In an interview with the Free Press, John-son and Craig described the process behind the album as “writing a lot of songs” that all members brought equally, some before the band formed, before they eventually whittled it down to the 12.

Some of their influences include the Eagles and the Avett Brothers, Johnson in partic-ular being country icons like Johnny Cash, Tom Petty, along with Bruce Springsteen and contemporary artists such as Bryan Adams. Craig said his influences also include classic rock acts such as Queen, Paul Simon, and Billy Joel.

Johnson says he loves music so much be-cause of its ability to make you “feel such a range of emotions” in a short period of time.

Craig says specifically with their roots and country genres, it all lends itself to “real rock and roll” and they all enjoy singing, bringing harmony to their sound. “You don’t need any special effects, like through a studio, or on-stage production to get your music across. It lives on the instruments and the voices, and the power of the song.”

When asked what their favourite track on the album is, Johnson said Minnedosa, the group’s first single and one of their first songs recorded, while Craig said Mining for Free-dom, “not commercial country, but what we want to be making.”

Canadian rock icon Tom Cochrane was a guest vocalist on one of the band’s songs, singing on the track “Mr. Nobody.”

Johnson explained their producer is friends with Cochrane and brought him over during one of their late night jam sessions, and after playing a bit, was asked and agreed to appear on the album. Johnson said having Cochrane on their album was “a dream come true.”

Craig said they’ve been looking forward to playing in Shelburne, because the venue allows them to play with just their acoustics, “the way we recorded it, the way it was ini-tially conceived.”

They said the tour is going well, they have been through Ontario, Manitoba, and P.E.I., and will then stop in Nova Scotia and Sas-katchewan.

LUnD anD JOHnsOn CrOOK BanD BrInG DOWn THe HOUse – The Johnson Crook Band opened for headliner and Juno Award winning singer Corb Lund with a large and appreciative crowd looking on Friday night in the CDRC at the Heritage Music Festival. The band filled the arena with a solid rock country vibe that warmed up the audience for the excitement of Albertan-born Lund who brought it all home with his satin vocals, award winning tunes, and a crisp country rock sound from his band.

WE DON’T BREW OUR BEER FOR THE AWARDS.

BUT HE DOES!

Andrew Kohnen Brewmaster

Our brewmaster, Andrew Kohnen, threw away a successful career in logistics to pursue

his dream of reconnecting with the brewing roots of his family. This carried him to the UK’s

prestigious Brewlab in Sunderland, England, where he procured the alchemy that would

drive his signature brewing style.

He took what he could from there and ventured to Scotland, Cornwall, and ultimately to

Krefeld, Germany, working in the same brewery that had belonged to his ancestors.

He came home to Canada for Hockley.

You could call it dumb, but we call it destiny.

Mansfield Cubs claim NDBL Junior titleBy BriaN LoCkhart

The Mansfield Cubs claimed the North Duf-ferin Baseball League Junior division champi-onship on Wednesday, August 9, after winning the final series in four games over the New Lowell Knight.

The third place Cubs upset the first place Knights who had finished first in the League with a 13-5 record.

The Cubs made it to the final after dispatch-ing the Midlands Twins in the first round of the playoffs.

Going into the championships, the Mansfield squad came out on top in Game One with a 4-1

win on July 31.Game Two saw the Cubs take a two game

lead with a 13-3 win on August 1.New Lowell battled hard to take a 7-5 win in

Game Three of the series.Game Four was back in Mansfield on

Wednesday with the Cubs hoping to wrap it up and the Knights working hard to even the series and force Game Five.

The Knights opened the scoring in the third inning with a pair of runs.

The Cubs were on the scoreboard in the bot-tom of the third with a single run.

At the end of the fifth the game was tied at four.

The Cubs big inning came in the sixth start-ing with a hit to a hole in the outfield by Jacob Hall that brought in the go-ahead run.

A second hit brought in a run to move the Cubs two runs ahead.

A hit to right field near the foul line by Jake Currie bought time for two runners to make it across home plate. That was followed by anoth-er hit from Josh Johnston over second base that brought in the final run of the game.

The Knights had one more chance in the seventh inning to get back in the game but the Mansfield squad played a solid final inning to shut them down and win the game 9-4.

“We kept doing what we’ve been doing in every game of the playoffs,” said Cubs coach Dave Metz after the win. “We were so unlucky

in that last game, I felt. We out-hit them 11-5, so we just kept going. Tonight they had that last at-bat so it kind of takes the pressure off. The pressure’s on them. In the playoffs we’ve had good defence, good pitching, but not a lot of strike-outs so it comes down to defence.”

Metz said the team worked on a plan starting at the beginning of the season.

“We discussed at the start of the year that our goal was to use the season to get ready for the playoffs. We had six really good playoff games out of six games. We won five and lost one. We had some good fortune mixed in there but we had six well pitched games, good defence, and six games with good clutch hitting.”This was the first time a Mansfield Cubs team has claimed the NDBL Junior title.

THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWN OF SHELBURNE NOTICE OF COMPLETE APPLICATION AND PUBLIC MEETING

UNDER SECTION 34 OF THE PLANNING ACT Take notice that the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Shelburne has received a complete application for a Zoning By-law Amendment (File No. Z17/04) and will hold a public meeting on:

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 2017 The public meeting is scheduled to start at 7:00 p.m., or as shortly thereafter as possible, and will be held in the Council Chambers at the Municipal Office, 203 Main Street East, Shelburne. The purpose of the meeting is to consider an Amendment to the Town of Shelburne Zoning By-law No. 38-2007. Take notice that the application has been deemed complete so that it can be circulated and received. The subject property is municipally known as 440 Main Street West. The property is located on the north side of Main Street West and east of 4th Line. The Site has a total area of approximately 685 m2 and contains a single detached dwelling with an attached garage. The garage has been converted to finished floor space for the purpose of a Home Occupation operated as a Personal Service Shop (hair salon). The property is designated as ‘Non-Urban’ in the Official Plan and zoned ‘Development (D)’ Zone in the Zoning By-law. The accompanying map illustrates the location of the land subject to the proposed zoning amendment. The purpose and effect of the Amendment is to rezone the subject properties from ‘Development (D) Zone’ to ‘Development Exception (D-#) Zone’ to recognize an existing home occupation within the attached garage. The applicant is seeking site-specific zoning which allows for a Home Occupation, limited to a Personal Service Shop (hair salon) as a permitted use. At the meeting you will be given an opportunity to ask questions and indicate whether you support or oppose the Zoning By-law Amendment. Written submissions will be accepted by the Clerk up to the time of the Public Meeting and will be given consideration by the Council prior to a decision being made. If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting, or make written submissions to the Clerk of the Town of Shelburne before the by-law is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the Ontario Municipal Board unless, in the opinion of the Board, there are reasonable grounds to do so. Additional information relating to the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment will be available for inspection at the Town of Shelburne Municipal Office at 203 Main Street East, during normal office hours, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and on the Town’s website at www.townofshelburne.on.ca. If you wish to be notified of the passing of the proposed Zoning By-law Amendment, you must make a written request to the Town at the address below. Dated at the Town of Shelburne on the 14th day of August, 2017. Jennifer Willoughby, Clerk Town of Shelburne 203 Main Street East Shelburne, Ontario L9V 3K7 Phone: 519-925-2600 Fax: 519-925-6134

SUBJECT LAND

Christian Perspectives: Like a Mighty RiverBY MAXINE MCLELLAN, CO-PASTOR GRACE CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE, SHELBURNE

In recent days, I found myself humming the tune, “Oh where, oh where has my little dog gone? Oh where, oh where could he be?”

My words were different: “Oh where, oh where has the summer time gone? Oh where oh where could it be? With the sun cut short and the rain cut long, oh where, oh where could it be?!”

A twist on another childhood tune: “Some like it hot, some like it cold, some like it in the pot, six months old!”

Some things in life we have no control over. Pe-riod. However, there is much we do have control over and we must plan and work the plan.

Each of us is at a different season in life. Let´s say the spring timers are 0-25 in age, the summer individuals are 26-50, those in the autumn years are 51-75, and those in the winter years are 76-100 and beyond.

There is a beauty to be found in each season of life. God says in Ecclesiastes 3:1 “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity un-der the heavens.” Life can be short or long. It´s the legacy you leave that counts.

On August 11, my husband´s family laid to rest our 89-year-old Uncle Clen. I was impressed by the words shared by his children and grandchil-dren. Beyond happy memories, they specifi cally named the attributes of his character and the val-ues in life which he impressed upon each of them.

They mentioned his honesty and integrity as a very successful and lifelong farmer; his willing-ness to learn new farming methods and of his will-ingness to learn from his children and grandchil-dren; and, his strong work ethic that never failed even when he became frail.

They spoke of his diligence in not putting off until tomorrow what could/should be done today. His sense of humour and desire to have fun while working and playing was evident. He modelled being a Godly loving and supportive husband, fa-ther, grandfather, boss to his employees, and friend to his neighbours.

His strong faith in God and service to God was highlighted.

Apparently he was skilled at “macgyvering” anything that was broken so he could complete a task. He refused to work on Sundays even if rain was forecast for the Monday, saying that God would bless and they would get the hay or the crops off in due time.

Had you not known the man, your eyes would have been fi lled with tears in awe of him.

One of those sharing their thoughts said, how-

ever, Clen would want the glory and thanks for his life to be given to God because he was just liv-ing the kind of life he believed everyone can and should live through the power of God.

As I drove my mother-in-law home from the celebration of life gathering we stopped along the Grand River in Caledonia, Ontario.

There was a dried, rutted mud wagon trail stretching along the river bank with fl owering weeds edging both sides and the river. A young man was enjoying fi shing. I thought about Un-cle Clen and how his life fl owed like the mighty Grand River, sometimes carrying others along, and often watering and infl uencing the lives of those around him.

He set and expected high standards. He was blessed by God and he in turn blessed others.

Anyone following in his tracks would know his life was not always easy as he knew tragedy and challenge.

Through it all, he gave praise to God.Clen realized life goes on, just like the river, the

fl owers, and the young fi sherman. Through to his fi nal days he shared words of prayer, wisdom, di-rection, encouragement and praise.

No matter what the season of your life now, or through the seasons you are granted, may you always be leaving for generations to come a high standard, a legacy, a clear example of a Godly life.

As you have touched and will touch the lives of others, like a mighty river may all who come behind you fi nd you faithful.

BY BRIAN LOCKHART

It was a Cinderella Story ending to the season for the Orangeville Outlaws Bantam football team when they claimed the Ontario Provincial Football League championship with a win over the Guelph Gryphons on Monday, August 7, in St. Catharines.

The Orangeville based club has team members from Orangeville, Shelburne, Mono, Grand Val-ley, and Caledon.

The Outlaws fi nished the regular season in fourth place with a 5-5 record.

The big turnaround came in their semi-fi nal game against the fi rst place Toronto Jets.

The Jets had an 8-2 record allowing only 80 points to be scored against them.

After stunning the Toronto team with a 26-22 win to send the Jets packing on July 29, the Out-laws geared up for the fi nal against the second place Guelph Gryphons.

The Outlaws came out strong and fast in the fi rst half of the fi nal to lead 17-7 in the second quarter.

Aidan Murray scored two Orangeville TDs as well as a three point fi eld goal.

Jacob Hosford scored a two point convert to top the O-ville scoring at the end of the second quarter.

The Guelph team kicked a fi eld goal late in the half to bring their score up to ten.

The Gryphons narrowed the score early in the third quarter after driving to the O-ville one yard line then scoring on the next play and kicking a successful one-point convert to tie the game at 17.

The Outlaws went ahead in the third quarter when quarterback Shamsher Hundal threw to Jack Roud to take the ball to the 29 yard line. The Out-laws battled to the seven yard line and followed up when Aidan Murray went through the middle for his third touchdown of the game.

Titus Lyall-Ashby made good for the extra two points catching a pass in the end zone on the con-vert.

With an eight point lead and one quarter to go, the Outlaws stepped up their defence including a quarterback sack from Jacob Hosford and a pass interception from Joshua Yumul for the turn-around.

The Gryphons scored with the three minute fl ag up to close the score to 25-23 and putting the pressure on the Outlaws to slam the door on any attempts in the fi nal minute.

The Outlaws stopped the convert attempt to end the game and give them the win and the champi-onship.

“We were pumped up and ready to win. They got really close on that last touchdown. We just persevered and beat them,” summed up Outlaws wide receiver Titus Lyall-Ashby.

Outlaws tight end Jack Roud said the strong start worked to give the Orangeville team an early edge.

“We started off very strong, then we let them come back a bit. We held them off for the win.”

Head coach Jim Walsh said the win was the re-sult of hard work by a team that had many new players but came together in the end and worked hard on their skills.

“We were the fourth seed. We had nine brand new players that had never played football before,” Walsh said after the game. “We got better all year long. Nobody expected us to even be here, nev-er mind to win it. We lost to Toronto (the number one seed) twice and we lost to these guys (Guelph) twice in the regular season. We just adapted. We have a great group of coaches and players. They are sponges for information and learning. It was our game plan to go up early. They (Guelph) have never been behind all year so we thought we

would come out and press the issue and see what they had. We got ahead and kept going and hung on as tight as we could.”

When the Gryphons scored to bring them with-in two points of tying the game, Walsh said his team knew what they had to do.

Outlaws win OPFL Bantam championship

The Orangeville Outlaws Bantam football team captured the Ontario Provincial Football League championship with a 25-23 win over the Guelph Gryphons on Monday, August 7, in St. Catharines. The Outlaws were the underdog team, dispatching the fi rst place Toronto Jets in the semi-fi nal before going on to win over Guelph in the fi nal.

On Saturday, August 12, Trillium Ford Shelburne hosted a free outdoor movie for the community.

The event drew more than 100 guests, who came to watch the iconic Steven Spielberg fi lm, E.T. The Extraterrestrial, digitally remastered from its original version, as fi rst released in 1982, on a 24’ infl atable screen.

“We chose to show E.T. because it’s one of the best family fi lms ever made,” said Wendy Gabrek, Marketing Manager at Trillium Ford. “Many of us (adults) can remember seeing this movie for the fi rst time with our parents, and we felt it was a great fi lm to show outdoors.”

In addition to the movie, Trillium’s guests were treated to pop-corn, marshmallows, pop and juice.

Community partners also contributed to the event by donating water (Ice River Springs), coffee (Tim Horton’s Shelburne), can-dy, and their time in-kind (Shelburne Home Hardware & Building Centre and The Lori Go-Round food truck).

“Thank you to everyone who came out to the fi rst annual Trilli-um Ford Free Family Movie Night,” said Len Rice, General Man-ager, Trillium Ford Shelburne. “Everything was perfect – from the weather to the company. We will defi nitely be hosting this event again!”

If you missed the fi rst movie, Trillium Ford Alliston, the dealer-ship’s sister store, will be showing the Disney Pixar fi lm, “Inside Out” this coming Saturday, August 19th, at the Riverdale Park Band Shell in Alliston. This family friendly movie touches on

mental health, with a positive outcome. Once again, everything is free of charge, including the popcorn and drinks. Movie starts at dusk, so plan to arrive at 7:30 p.m.

For more information call 705 435-7609, or e-mail [email protected]

Join YOUR library for a come-and-go back-to-school celebration!

From 10:30am-2:30pm YOUR Library’s parking lot will be full of life-sized games, and face painting, henna, and musical performanc-es, all by our friends from Troupe Adore. We will also be providing a free BBQ lunch! Come one, come all! Lots of fun for everyone!

Partnering with Hats On DUFFERINWe are excited to partner with that great

initiative here at the Library. You can pick up yarn here to create hats for the children in the schools as a poverty awareness issue. The yarn and drop-off bins are in front of our fireplace.

I have great hopes that we might have people drop in, sit in front of the cozy fireplace this winter and knit, crochet or loom and have fun talking and learning some different crafts.

Trans-Canada 150 Trek UpdateIf you haven’t checked in lately, now is the

time! We have just three more check -ins left, and a long distance to travel. We’ve made it as far as Whitefish Bay, ON, leaving us four prov-inces from our destination! Check us out on Facebook (/shelburnelibrary) to see screen cap-tures of all the places we’ve stopped at so far!

Children’s ProgramsCome and enjoy your summer @ YOUR

award winning Library. Join us for Story Time on Friday, August 18 for songs, dances, crafts and of course, stories. We are also still offering Book Club on Mondays, Craft Club on Tues-days, LEGO Club on Wednesdays and Movie Madness on Thursdays.

Teen SceneWe are down to the last two weeks of sum-

mer reading, and the competition is fierce! With a Samsung tablet on the line, our Teens are reading up a storm to earn “mileage” on their cross-Canada tour! Up this week: Minute-to-Win-it and our second escape room of the sum-mer, The Lost Colony! Both of these events require registration in advance, so please phone or stop by the library at least 24 hours in ad-vance!

Register by calling YOUR Library at 519-925-2168 or dropping by the circulation desk!
