new tec to get $688k towards
bridges and sewer connections
Photo by Wendy Gabrek
Which Was better? – Next Step: The Literacy Council of South Simcoe, has selected the winners of its first ever, ‘Which
was Better, the Book or the Movie?” contest. Winners were presented with new books (provided by the New Tecumseth Public
Library) and gift cards to Circle Theatre by coordinator Shira Harrison McIntyre Monday night at Town Hall in Alliston. Participants were asked to review books that were made into movies, and present an argument on which was better – the book, or
the movie – in a literary document. The first place winners, pictured here from left, are: Deb Rouleau on her comparison of
‘Meet Jack Reacher’; Kaelyn Nippard on why the book ‘Gone With the Wind’ was better than the
movie; Alana Keenan with her

comparison on the Harry Potter book/movie series; Kade Medaglia on his comparison of ‘How to Train a Dragon’ with Shira
Harrison McIntyre (far right).

The Town of New Tecumseth has been selected
to receive an infrastructure
grant from the province in
the amount of $688,000.
The grant, approved trough
the provinces Ontario Community Infrastructure Fund
(OCIF), will be used for
bridge work and upgrades to
storm sewer connections and
related road restoration projects.
In total, 78 grants were approved. Orangeville and Shelburne were the closest municipalities to New Tecumseth to
also received grant approvals.
“Roads, bridges and water
infrastructure are essential to
rural communities across the
province. By partnering with
communities and investing
in these projects, our govern-
ment is committed to ensuring
municipalities have the tools
they need to build and maintain critical infrastructure,”
said Jeff Leal, Minister of
Agriculture, Food and Rural
Affairs.
“Investing in essential infrastructure projects not only
increases the quality of life in
communities across Ontario,
but also creates jobs and generates significant economic
growth in areas that need it
most. I’m pleased that we are
moving forward with our plan
to support small, rural and
northern communities, and we
will continue partnering with
municipalities across Ontario
to make unprecedented infrastructure investments,” said
Brad Duguid, Minister of
Economic Development, Employment and Infrastructure.

big changes to relay for Life alliston
by Wendy Gabrek
Relay for Life is changing
the rules in 2015 to make the
event more accessible to everyone.
The first big change is the
time. Normally an all-night
event, this year Relay takes
place from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m.
– so no need to setup a tent,
or dust off the sleeping bag.
You get to sleep in your own
bed!
The next big change is
the team structure. Don’t
have a team? Don’t worry!
Singles can now register for
the event – although teams
are still more than welcome.
Registration is $25 ($35 as
of May 1st), and each participant must raise a minimum
of $250.
Relay is also bringing
back the use of a baton in
the relay itself. Symbolic in
many ways, a baton will be
used to show how we’re all
in this together – whether
you’ve lost a loved one to
cancer, are diagnosed or are
in remission. For those who
have been taken from us too
soon, we will carry the baton
on their behalf.
This is the 11th Annual
Relay for Life in Alliston.
Held at the Alliston Fairgrounds (previously held at
the 8th Avenue Youth Centre) this event has raised
$1,546,000 to date for the
Canadian Cancer Society.
Each year, more than 600
people take part in Relay locally, with many more volunteering behind the scenes.
As for what else you can
expect at the 2015 Relay?
Organizers tell me there
is going to be a disgusting
amount of food on hand,
with local caterers and restaurants generously supporting the event.
There will also be a survivors lap, sale of luminaries,
and costumes/themes are always encouraged!
For more information, to
register or to get involved go
to www.relayforlifeontario.
ca or call 1-866-201-6202.
“Accept the baton and
walk to fund vital support
services and Canada’s most
promising cancer research!”
Note: the Relay for Life
Team Fundraiser, a province-wide garage sale, will
take place on Saturday, May
23rd in each of New Tecumseth’s three communities. More details to be announced. Save the date and
spread the word.

THE SECRET SERVICE
Relay for Life is bringing back the ‘baton’ this year. The significance is “sharing the responsibility of the load” that cancer
brings. We all have an obligation to help where we can, support those going through treatment and our survivors. Batons
will be used during the Relay on June 12th.
Photos by Wendy Gabrek
Luminaries, commemorating the loss of a loved one to cancer, were created and sold at the
‘Relay Reunion’ last Thursday night. Jessica Lewis and “Shorty” helped 2015 Relay participants create these special ornaments, that will decorate the perimeter of the track during the
June 12th event – providing light for walkers and runners.

Go Thirsty? I don’t think so
By Wendy GaBrek
The ‘Go Thirsty’ Challenge, presented by the Simcoe Muskoka District Health
Unit came to a close last Saturday, February 28th.
I took the month-long
challenge to stay sober myself and have to say that I
didn’t do very well.
I’m not the type who likes
to consume alcoholic bever-
ages everyday, and saying no
to a glass of wine or a beer at
an event, or after a meeting,
isn’t a problem for me.
I do, however, like to drink
at home, when my work is

Dear editor:
The Rotary Club of Alliston has been working with
partners in the community
for 60 years to provide enhanced services, materials,
facilities and programs for
many local organizations.
We have undertaken some
major recreational projects
and with the generous support of the community have
made them something we
can all be proud of
The Club’s first major
project was the Rotary Pool
which has provided great
enjoyment to many families
for many years.
On the Club’s 50th anniversary, our second major recreational project,
was the Rotary Adventure
Playground. The Adventure Playground started as a
modest $85,000 project and
with community support
grew to a $365,000 complete redevelopment of the
playground.
Now in our 60th year the
Rotary Club is pleased to
continue this legacy of family recreational facilities in
Riverdale Park with the expansion of the splash pad,
the addition of sun shelters
and the creation of walkways to join all three facilities.
We have listened to the
needs of families using the
playground areas and incorporated their concerns into
the design.
The final design for the
splash pad expansion has
been approved and our
construction schedule is in
place. The Slash Pad expansion will increase the pad
from the existing 800 sq.ft.
to 3400 sq.ft .
We are actively seeking inkind donations of materials
and volunteers which would
help to significantly reduce
our total costs of the project.
The Rotary Club of Alliston has raised more than
$100,000 for this project and
the Town of New Tecumseth
has contributed funding of
$100,000. To make this project a success we are looking
for additional partners to assist in helping us meet our
financial needs which could
reach $300,000 upon completion. In addition, sweat
equity will be a large component of our needs and we
welcome your help.
If you, your friends or
your business associates
are interested in contributing to the cost of a specific
piece of equipment or to the
overall expansion project or
providing in-kind services,
please contact Patricia Middlebrook, 705 435-9720 or
Paul Foster 705 434-9230.

finished, the house is clean,
and the kids are in bed. This
trifecta of ingredients usually only comes together for
me on a Friday or Saturday
night. I guess this makes
me a “Weekend Warrior” of
sorts.
I did “cheat” a few times
during the month-long challenge, although I said “no”
more than I indulged – I
wasn’t perfect, although I
don’t think that was the
point. The Health Unit presented this challenge to
make us more aware of our
drinking habits, and to see
what changes, if any, we
might experience when we
stop, or slow, our drinking.
Since I’m not a heavy
drinker (usually) I didn’t
find the #R2BT Challenge to
be an issue for me, but I still
had lot of people who read
this column, and know me in
person, kept me true to my
word and reminded me “not
to drink” when I attended
social functions – of which I
attend a lot in a month, due
to my work.
I don’t think I’ll ever not
drink, I don’t see a reason
not to. I have control over
my habits and I can take it or
leave it without feeling one
way, or the other.
I’m also not a fan of hangovers, so going to bed early
and waking up spry is a great
way to keep up with my busy
schedule.
I also don’t like the way
other people get when they
drink – sloppy. Slurring their
words, losing volume control, getting huggy – that just
looks bad to me. I’m loud
enough and a definite hugger
to begin with.
Booze is also expensive
and the tannins in the reds
I prefer stain everything
– including my teeth and
lips. People who have been
drinking also smell bad.
They smoke too much, and
make bad food choices, that
day, and the next.
It’s true, booze does loosen our inhibitions and make
us feel happy and even sexy
in the short term, it takes
away our issues (or at least
puts them on the back burner
for a time) and makes us
feel like rock stars. That is,
until the next day. Dehydration, swollen face and hands,
headaches, lack of energy
and anxiety.
Can I talk about that for
a minute? Anxiety. That’s
a huge issue with drinking.
Booze may solve anxiety issues in the moment – loosening you up at a party or
event – but boy, when the
drink wears off, it’s anxiety
central. I don’t know about
you, but I can’t even leave
my house when I’m hungover. Maybe just to go to
McDonald’s...
The Go Thirsty Challenge
wasn’t much of a challenge
for me, but maybe that’s because I knew I’d be drinking
anyway during the month of
February.
Sometimes, some days,
you just need a glass of
wine. I guess I’m a poor test
subject, but at least I admit
to it. Cheers.

County takes next step on organics and material handling
RICHARD BLANCHARD
Simcoe County is making
the next step towards the
construction of a materials
handling and organic processing plant.
County councillors gave
approval to staff to begin
the process of evaluating
and creating a short list of
viable sites for a combine
material management and
organics processing plant.
The decision came last
Tuesday after council were
given a presentation from
Connestoga-Rovers
and
Associates about the plant.
The process will be a long
one which will extend over
almost year. Possible sites
will be chosen and then
narrowed down to a short
list which will be presented
to county council early next
year.
Public consultation will
be ongoing throughout the
process before the ﬁnal
stage when the county decides on a site.
About 13 hectares would
be required for the organics
plant and 7 hectares for the
material handling operation.

Lenten Dinner

“LET THEM EAT STONES” – Myrtle Brighty, a 90 year old resident of Kingsmere Retirement Living in Alliston, is taking a stance
against the proposed gravel pit in Adjala–Tosorontio. On her own volition, Myrtle created a petition that she took door-to-door in
the residence, explaining the issues surrounding the gravel pit and the potential environmental impact. She achieved 77 signatures in just a few hours. Taking things one step further, Myrtle is now working with Janet Bubgell, a former municipal councillor
and activist (who has presented her anti-gravel pit opinions to Adjala–Tosorontio council). Together, the ladies held a letter writing
forum on Monday afternoon. The deadline to halt the process of constructing a sand and gravel pit in Tos is Monday, March 9th,
through the Ministry of Natural Resources. The MNR must resolve all written objections before the process can continue. Although
Myrtle has no children to continue her family name, she says what she’s doing is important, and she feels obligated to take a stand.
“They’ll ruin the atmosphere, the environment and the water,” she told The Times. The proposed gravel pit, owned by Nelson Aggregate Co., would be located on the 13th Sideroad at the 5th Line in Tosorontio. The project would likely bring one truck every
85 seconds through the Alliston community, en route to destinations in Barrie and Toronto. With the population expected to double
in New Tecumseth over the next 15 years, those ﬁghting the gravel pit ask, “What will our future generations eat if all of the prime
farmland is taken from us to build pits (that are never rehabilitated)? Stones?”. Bubgell will be submitting the letters by the March
9th deadline to the MNR and
hopes this will stop the process for further review on the
impact this will have to water,
endangered species of birds
that use the land, roadways
and the environment.
St. Catherine of Alexandria Catholic Church in Bond
Head will host a Fish and Chips dinner with breaded haddock, fries, cole slaw, vegetable, dinner rolls, dessert, tea
and coffee on Sunday, March 8, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Tickets are $15 for adults, $7 for children 7 to 12, and children
six and under are free. Tickets are available at the door.
Everyone is invited to attend the dinner.

Adj–Tos council decides not to
comment on aggregate proposal
PHOTO BY WENDY GABREK
HAPPY 101ST BIRTHDAY NORAH!– On Sunday, March 1st, Norah Edith Clarke (Bullock)
celebrated her 101st birthday at the Good Samaritan Senior’s Complex in Alliston. Norah’s
daughter, Patricia Middlebrook, prepared a long list of historical events that took place in her
mother’s lifetime and said, “This only scratches the surface of all the changes my mother has
seen in her lifetime. She is truly an amazing woman. The journey continues as she begins her
102nd year.” Born on March 1, 1914, Norah Edith Clarke grew up in Toronto where her father
was a shoes salesman. She was an only child so her mother usually invited one or more of
her friends to go with them on outings. One of her fondest memories was her mother packing a lunch and taking them to the CNE. As a teenager during the Great Depression, Norah
worked at Woolworths, she made $15 a week. Norah met her husband, Thomas Edward
Charles Bullock, on her way to bible class. They were married on September 8, 1937. During
her lifetime, Norah has made various wood works, was a Brownie leader, an avid gardener, a
seamstress, and loved golﬁng, bowling, curling and playing bridge. She is also an avid traveller. Norah has three children, Roland, Patricia and Carol. She has eight grandchildren and 14
great grandchildren.

Adjala–Tosorontio council has decided not to submit
comments on the suitability
of a proposed aggregate operation in former Tosorontio
township at the corner of the
5th Sideroad and County
Road 13 to the Ministry of
Natural Resources.
Council discussed the issue last Wednesday morning
at a special council meeting.
There was a recommendation from Ward 3 councillor
Bob Meadows which sought
to have “council and planning personnel review the
application package (from
Nelson Aggregates) and
prepared an executive summary of possible objections
with reasons by Friday Feb.
27 to be circulated that day
to council.”
Council would have meet
this past Monday to review
the document and other objections and submit a letter
to the Ministry of Natural
Resources and Nelson Aggregate prior to March 9,
2015.
Council went into closed
session to discuss the ramiﬁcations of this motion with
its lawyer and over an hour
of discussion, returned to
public session. Council decided to not move forward
with Meadows’ recommendation and to not submit any
comments on the proposal
to the Ministry of Natural
Resources.
Councillor Floyd Pinto, in
an email, Wednesday, said
that council was advised
that there were fears that
comments to the Ministry
of the Natural Resources
would be seen as a sign of
potential bias in the upcoming zoning hearings for the
property later this year.
“Our township lawyer informed us that the deadline
of 9th March is only for
public concerns, that deadline does not effect council,
as council will have an open
public meeting in April
sometime at the call of the
mayor for the zoning, It is
at that meeting that council can voice their opinions
and the public will also get
a chance to voice their concerns,” he wrote.
Deputy mayor Doug Little
said Thursday that the advice from the township lawyer about bias caused council’s decision.
“I know that it wasn’t popular with some of the people
at the meeting but there will
the opportunity at the public
meeting on the rezoning of
the property to allow council and the public to speak
about it. . Council wants to
make sure that there is no
indication of bias before this
process begins. I don’t want
to see the township involved
in a needless court case
about bias,” he said.
Anyone in Ontario will
have an opportunity to comment on the proposal to the
Ministry of Natural Resources up until next Monday, March 9.
Comments on the proposal must be sent to both
the applicant: Nelson Aggregate Company, 2433 No.

If a tree falls, and no one’s there to stoP It Who’ll Pay the PrIce later?
– Protesters, objecting to the clear cutting of trees – especially the endangered Butternut – on
property owned by the Rizzardo family on the 9th Line, just outside of Beeton, came together
on Monday morning for a peaceful demonstration. Carrying signs and saying, “They’ll never
grow back, not for a 100 years...” this group of concerned citizens is demanding a public consultation take place before any further trees are removed from the site. Although the owners
of the property have all of their documentation in order – issued by the County of Simcoe,
which controls the Forest Conservation By-Laws with help from the NVCA – residents of
Beeton asked that further clear cutting be stopped until all factors, including: future flooding,
damage to infrastructure (bridges/sewer), impact on wildlife, a reforestation plan that works,
the creation of an Emergency
Preparedness Plan, and endangered species living in
and using the forest could
be examined. Previous applications had been submitted, and removed, to develop
the land being cleared into a
housing subdivision.

St. Patricks Day
TRADITIONAL DINNER
While St. Patrick’s Day may now be most quickly associated with parades and green beer, for many
celebrants the day also marks a chance to indulge in Ireland’s native cuisine.
When asked to think of Irish cuisine, many people might immediately think of corned beef and cabbage
or even the versatile potato. But the Emerald Isle is rich in culinary history, and some might be surprised to learn Irish cuisine is about more than just the staples served on St. Patrick’s Day. For those
who want to try their hand at something new this year, consider the following recipe for “Cider-Braised
Chicken and Cabbage” from Margaret M. Johnson’s “The Irish Pub Cookbook” (Chronicle Books).

It’s an Alliston/Schomberg Jr. ‘C’ ﬁnal!
PHOTOS BY BRIAN LOCKHART
The Alliston Hornets won their semi-ﬁnal series against the Orillia Terriers Friday (Feb. 27) night at the New Tecumseth Recreation Centre. The series last ﬁve games before the Hornets ended it on Friday with a 5–0 win. The Hornets will now go on
to play the Schomberg Cougars in the Georgian Mid Ontario Hockey League Junior C ﬁnal.
BY BRIAN LOCKHART
It’s going to be a good
championship ﬁnal series for
fans of Junior C Hockey this
year as the Alliston Hornets
will be facing the Schomberg Cougars to battle for
the Georgian Mid Ontario
Hockey League 2015 title.
The Hornets won their
semi-ﬁnal series against the
Orillia Terriers in ﬁve games
ending on Friday night (Feb.
27) in Alliston with the Hornets shutting out Orillia 5–0
in the ﬁnal game.
This will be the eighth consecutive season the Hornets
have gone to the GMOHL
championship.
They won the title six consecutive years from 2008 to
2013 and went to the ﬁnal
last year, passing the torch to
the Penetang Kings.
The fact that Schomberg
is in the ﬁnal will make this
a great series for fans who
want to attend all the games.
The the two towns are only
20 minutes apart.
Schomberg ﬁnished the
regular season in sixth place
and battled all year as a middle of the pack team before
really coming alive in the
playoffs and knocking out
the third place Huntsville
Otters in the quarter-ﬁnal
then going on to dispatch
the Penetang Kings in four
games in the semi-ﬁnal
round.
“It’s parity in the League.
We said this from the beginning. There’s a lot of parity
and games have been close,”
Is how Hornets head coach
Clay Birkett explained the
fact that the Hornets and
Cougars will be meeting
in the ﬁnal. “We’ve now
played the eighth place team
(Fergus in the quarter-ﬁnal)
the seventh place team (Orillia in the semi-ﬁnal) and
now the sixth place time. I
think it’s going to be a hell
of a good series. They’re
two fast teams. I think both
teams have a lot of depth and
you’ve got good goal tending. Being local like this, it’s
great for the fans and great
for the local area.”
The last time the Schomberg team was in the League
ﬁnal was way back in 2003
when they won the League
championship in a ﬁnal series against the Stayner Siskins.
Game one of the GMOHL
championship ﬁnal series
was scheduled to get underway on Wednesday, March
4, in Alliston. Results were
not available at press time,
but the Times will be there
for every game of the series.
Steam win over
Coyotes in ﬁve
games
BY BRIAN LOCKHART
The Tottenham Steam
have advanced in the Greater Metro League playoffs
after winning their best of
ﬁve series against the Alliston Coyotes.
It took all ﬁve games to
settle the series after the
Alliston team battled hard
against the ﬁrst place Steam
in an attempt to upset the
playoffs.
The series got underway
on Wednesday, February
18, in Tottenham with the
Steam coming out on top
with a 4–1 win.
Game two of the series
was back in Alliston on the
following night at the New
Tecumseth Recreation Centre.
The Coyotes had a huge
second period scoring three
unanswered goals that gave
them a 4–2 lead going into
the ﬁnal frame. The Steam
battled back scoring two
in the third period, but the
Alliston squad pushed hard
scoring two more to end the
game at 6-3 to tie the series
1–1.
The Steam moved ahead
in game three at the Tottenham Community Centre
arena with a 4–2 win that
gave them a one game advantage.
Moving back to Alliston
for game four, the Steam
where hoping to ﬁnish the
series.
Tottenham opened the
scoring with a single in the
ﬁrst period.
The Coyotes lit up the
scoreboard early in the second period to tie it up.
By the end of the frame
the Steam were leading 3–2.
With the pressure on the
Coyotes to stay in the game,
the Alliston team scored
early in the third period and
managed to keep the Steam
out of their zone.
The game went into overtime to decide the winner.
With no goals scored
in overtime, the teams returned for a second overtime
period. This time Alliston’s
Kaleb Rossel managed to
ﬁnd the back of the Steam
net to take the win and keep
the series alive.
The ﬁnal game in Tottenham again came down
to overtime when the ﬁrst
period ended 1–1, and no
scoring in the second frame.
The Steam took a lead
early in the third period, but
again the Coyotes fought
back scoring the tie goal
two minutes later.
The series was decided
when the teams returned for
an overtime peried.
Tottenham got the winner
on a powerplay to end the
game at 3–2 and take the
series.
It was an exciting series
that saw the Coyotes step
up to give the Steam some
real competition.
The Steam will now continue on to the next round to
face the Halton Ravens.

ton. Upon arrival, a male occupant was extricated by the
New Tecumseth Fire Department from the basement, and
was transported to hospital with minor injuries. A female
occupant was also transported with minor injuries.
Investigators from the Nottawasaga OPP detachment,
the OPP Crime Unit, OPP Forensic Identification Unit and
partnered with the Ontario Fire Marshalls Office have determined that the fire was started in the basement of the residence. And as a result of the evidence found at the scene,
police have arrested and charged the male occupant found
in the basement for causing the fire.
On February 28th, OPP investigators arrested 58-year
old Charles Burgler with Arson: Disregard for Human
Life; and Mischief Endangering Life in relation to the fire
set within his residence. He was held for a bail hearing on
March 1st, and was released. He is scheduled to reappear in
court on the 19th of March.

Have Wheels, Will Travel fundraiser raises $21,000
BY WEnDY GaBREk
The Have Wheels, Will Travel fundraiser, benefitting Jesse
Scime, a 14 year old Beeton
resident with cerebral palsy,
took place last Saturday, Feb.
28th at the Muddy Water Hotel
in Beeton.
The event was a huge success,
with an estimated 350 people in
attendance throughout the day.
In total, with silent, live and
sealed bid auction takings,
ticket sales, and personal and
corporate donations, the event
raised a whopping $21,000.
These funds will be used to
offset the cost of a wheelchair
accessible van, purchased by
the Scime family in September,
2014, which cost $40,000.
Jesse’s family and friends
came out in spades for the
event, as did community–minded residents of New Tecumseth,
local councillors and even family friends from as far away as
Ottawa.
There are many people to
thank for the success of this
fundraiser. First, and foremost
is Jesse himself. A popular
young man, Jesse had no problem selling tickets and encouraging attendance. In fact, Jesse
sold the most tickets of all!
Next is the Fundraising Committee: Richard Norcross, Susan Iacoucci, Al Lord, Pat Jordan, Chris Ross and myself.
Over the course of many
moons, we divided and conquered a whole lot of responsibilities, and boy did our hard
work pay off!
We, the committee, would
also like to say thank you to the
following people and organizations for their contributions:
The Muddy Water Hotel for
hosting the event, Ted Blowes
– Original 6 hockey hoodie and
Wendel Clark Jersey, We Love
Sound Entertainment – two

Fighters Association, Tottenham Steam, Alliston Hornets,
The Times of New Tecumseth,
Snapd South Simcoe, and all of
the people who gave cash the
day of the event and contributed
by purchasing auction items.
Just because the fundraiser is
over, doesn’t mean it’s too late
to make a donation. The bank
account at the RBC in Beeton
will remain open until the end
of March. Also, in April (18th
& 19th) an indoor ball hockey
tournament will be held at the
Tottenham Community Centre for Jesse. Register online
through the Knights of Columbus Tottenham.
As a community we made a
difference to this family. We are
a village, and we help our own.
Thank you to everyone :)

1964. He attended King

Dave found pleasure in
the simple things in life
enjoying taking in the
natural beauty of our
land, fishing, and scenic
photography. He had a
kind soul and a gentle
spirit, which were captured in his poems.
It’s about the rest of
our lives
It ought to take some
time
As babbling brooks
Join as one
To make a river run
Through sand and
pebble
Worn from boulders
On a mountain high
As labyrinths of
twisted roots
Hold some banks
together
Others slowly sigh
Some must wash
away more quickly
As time does pass
them by
David leaves his love
to his daughter Tatiana.
He is survived by his
brother Neil; his sister Heather (Rob); his
nephews; and the rest
of his family and friends.
His loving Mother, Agnes Wood, precedes
David in death. Flowers
are gratefully declined.

Donations will be accepted on March 6th at

Beeton Horticultural
Society meeting
Please join the Beeton
Horticultural Society March
10th to welcome Kristen
Marytn of Wild Bird Unlimited. Kristen’s topic for
the evening is Bird Feeding
101.
Bird feeding has become
our number one form of interaction with wildlife. By
some estimates, more than
half the households in North
America put out food for
wild birds at least occasionally. Such popularity is easy
to understand. Would you
like to join in on the excitement of one of North America’s most popular hobbies
– backyard bird feeding?
Do you already feed the
birds, but need help attracting a greater variety of birds
to your feeders? Join Kristen Martyn as she explores
backyard bird feeding and
how you can make any size
backyard bird and wildlife
friendly. This presentation is
packed full of photos of local backyard birds and wildlife, and is a must hear for
anyone who currently feeds
birds and other wildlife in
their backyard or is interested in making their outdoor
space wildlife friendly.
The Beeton Horticultural society meet in the
Rotary Hall at the Beeton
Park the second Tuesday of
each month. Meetings start
promptly at 7:30 p.m. New
members always welcome.
For more information contact Marieanne at 905-7290389.
