Kimberly Evans with her 1st Place winning poster, as judged by the Ontario Association of Agricultural Societies (OAAS), following the 2014 Shelburne
Fall Fair. Way to go!
Fall Fair poster takes 1st place at provincial level
BY WENDY GABREK
It takes skill to create an outstanding poster.
The poster must convey the feeling and heart
of the event it represents, it requires a pleasing
aesthetic, and it must stand out from the rest.
Kimberly Evans seems to have found this secret recipe and created an award winning poster
for the 2014 Shelburne Fall Fair. Taking first
place at the local level, her poster went on to
receive accolades from the Ontario Association
of Agricultural Societies (OAAS), claiming another 1st place, an earning Evans (and the Shelburne Fall Fair) provincial recognition.
In the summer of 2014, the Shelburne Free
Press hosted and judges a competition for the
official Fall Fair poster. Evans submitted a
beauty, and took first place locally. Her poster
then went on for judging by the OAAS – a provincial body, that receives a multitude of submissions annually – and won yet again.
Taking 1st Place in the Adult category, Evans
was presented with a red ribbon and $40! (She
also took home $15 in Shelburne for her winning entry).
The Shelburne Fall Fair committee plans to
host the poster competition once again in 2015.
Posters will be displayed at the Free Press office, and our staff will act as judges.
Posters must be two denominational (with no
moving parts) and represent the best the Fall
Fair has to offer.
On her black and white, and busy, poster, Ev-
ans has this to say, “I managed to get a lot on it.
I chose an older ‘typesetting’ look for the font,
in keeping with the history of the Fall Fair itself, and I made sure that ‘Shelburne’ and ‘Fall
Fair’ were prominently displayed.
It took Evans several days to create the digital poster, created on her home computer, and
she admits that several “tweaks” were needed
before she was happy with the finished product.
On why she thinks she won overall, Evans
said, “It’s just a fun fluke, really! But I hope my
win shows that anyone has a chance to win, and
that we’ll receive more submissions this year!”
Look to the Free Press, your Shelburne Fall
Fair supporter, for up to date information as it
becomes available.

Town receives municipal training
cording to the Act, this can extend to municipal
Councillors, and there are legal consequences
for not acting as required by the standard of
care set by the Act, “including possible fines
and even imprisonment.” While Councillors
are not expected to be experts on water safety, they do need to be informed about drinking
water operations when making decisions that
impact public health and must seek advice from
experts in order to act in the best interests of
their citizens. Councillors learned that one of
the greatest threats to the safety standards of
Ontario’s drinking water is complacency; the
guide for municipal governments urges Councils to be vigilant.
CAO Telfer says, “Training like this brings
all participants into the same room to hear it
first hand and appreciate each other roles to accomplish the best decisions for all citizens and
taxpayers. Also, it allows questions to be discussed and answered through the lens of a true
seasoned municipal legal advisor.”
‘Extreme Weather’
presentation at
Monora Park
By WEndy GaBrEk
The Mono Mulmur Citizens’ Coalition, or
MC2, is hosting an ‘Extreme Weather’ presentation next Saturday, March 28th from 10
a.m. until noon at Monora Park (500 Monora Park Drive, Mono). More than 80 participants are expected.
Confirmed speakers include: Director of
Public Works for Mono, Mike Dunmore, and
Steve Murphy from Emergency Management
Dufferin County. Glenn Switzer, Director
of Engineering, for the Nottawasaga Valley
Conservation Authority (NVCA) and Pete
Karageorgos of the Insurance Bureau of Canada will also speak, following and introduction by Arnold DeGraaff.
Everyone in the community is encouraged
to attend this free event, to share ideas and
discuss action plans.
Refreshments will be served during the
break.
“We will have a number of informative
handouts for participants to take home so
they can work on their own unique plan for
their situation,” said event co-organizer, Rita
Reitsma. “We will also have references participants can pursue on the Internet.”
“MC2 does several presentations annually in which we invite the public,” Reitsma
continued. “Previous (Speaker Series topics
have covered) proposed Land Use Plan for
the county; DEEP waste proposal; Decline
of Bees and Organic vs. Chemical Farming.
We try to provide balanced and detailed information to help educate ourselves and the
community on issues that matter to all of us.
The environment committee is specifically
sponsoring this event in March. As a committee we plan to do another presentation in the
fall on GMOs.”

Mayor Ken Bennington thanks municipal training expert Fred Dean for a successful session with
Town Council, staff and committee members March 9th. Mr. Dean has trained municipal councils
across the Province and has been visiting Shelburne, keeping Council up to date on their responsibilities, for 22 years.
By Marni WalSh
Town Council, staff and committee members
received municipal training from barrister and
solicitor Fred Dean March 9th at Grace Tipling
Hall. All council were present as well as six
staff members and all boards were represented
by a board member or secretary at the two and
a half hour training session.
Fred Dean, an expert in municipal law, has
been visiting Shelburne for 22 years keeping
Town representatives up to date on their municipal responsibilities. Monday night, he presented training at the request of the Town, when the
on- site training was of additional importance
for new councillors Dan Sample, and Wade
Mills, also a lawyer, as well as Shelburne’s
newly elected Mayor Ken Bennington.
CAO John Telfer says, “This training gives
the basic understanding of responsibilities between Council members, staff, public and media and the ability to recognize responsibilities
or job descriptions and interaction with other
people.” Similarly, committee members learn
to understand their roles and responsibilities as
they pertain to representing Council on different boards.
Mr. Dean, who does scheduled training
around the Province, also speaks at workshops
for associations such as ROMA, AMO and
AMCTO, annual municipal conferences which
provide learning opportunities to strengthen local governments. Even for returning Councillors, the CAO explains there is “always something new to learn and analyze. A refresher is
always a learning opportunity for the most seasoned member of Council or staff.”
In 2015, John Telfer reports that “Council
and senior staff will have a continuing level of
increased responsibility with the Clean Water
Act.” The Safe Drinking Water Act of 2002 includes a “statutory standard of care for individuals who have decision-making authority over
municipal drinking water systems or who oversee the operating authority of the system.” Ac-

Making history at home
By Marni Walsh
The mandate for the Dufferin County Museum
and Archives (DCMA) is to collect, preserve, present and interpret the history of Dufferin County, all
the while creating a enjoyable and valuable experience for their visitors. “If the Walls Could Talk” the
main exhibit for 2015, exemplifies the passion and
care that goes into fulfilling that challenge in every
display at the museum.
The DCMA’s new Curator Sarah Robinson
says the staff at the museum “wanted this exhibit
to mean a lot to the people of Dufferin County –
something they could relate to, as well as educating
visitors who were from outside the County.” She
says one of the most common questions from visitors relates to local homes and buildings; “If the
Walls Could Talk,” a title borrowed from DCMA
Archivist Steve Brown’s book about buildings in
Orangeville, will display artefacts from multiple
building’s once prominent in the area, including
churches, the county jail, post offices, and hotels
and taverns such as Shelburne’s once and long ago
Royal Hotel and the Paisley House hotel in Orangeville.
The exhibit will also feature the OPP Museum’s
touring exhibit from Orillia – “Arresting Images”
opening July 5th in the Silo gallery. The travelling
display includes 100 mug shots from OPP archives.
There will also be canine demonstrations, finger
printing and guest officers from local police departments.
Sarah says that “travelling exhibits keep what
the museum offers fresh and provide local visitors
with learning opportunities they might not get otherwise.
In late February, the museum closed down for
a week to carefully remove folk art displays and
begin the work to set up “If the Walls Could Talk.”
With the invaluable help of local volunteers, 98%
of the 2014 displays have been painstakingly removed and put in their resting spots in museum
archive rooms safe from light and dust to be preserved for the future. The museum has a small
archive room that securely protects all textile antiques such as gowns, First Nations clothing, and
the museum’s over 200 quilts. There is also a larger
storage room for non-textile and larger antiquities
that is open to the public. The storage rooms that
house the museums precious “secrets” are temperature, light and moisture controlled for preservation
purposes.
Sarah Robinson, an Orangeville area native,
officially became the curator of DCMA in June
of 2014, but she started as a volunteer five years
earlier. A graduate of Guelph University with an
Honours BA in History and Applied Museum Studies at Algonquin College in Ottawa, Sarah was a
summer student, and Curatorial Assistant before
taking over as Curator. She said former Curator
Wayne Townsend was the best mentor she could
have hoped for in preparing for her new position.
“I learned many things in school, but I learned so
many things from Wayne that I could not learn
there; communicating with the community, the
importance of sharing stories and showing your
passion for history, as well as having a sense of
humour.”
General Manager of the DCMA, Darrel Keenie
says that “2015 is all about the family.”
The museum has lots of kid’s activities planned
as well as more accessible displays to let families
get closer to the history of their home County. For
more information on “If the Walls Could Talk” or
special events contact the museum at 705 435-1881
or visit their website at [email protected]

your home or a local building contact Laura Camilleri Archive Assistant.

Hello Shelburne Minor Hockey sponsors
Dear editor:
As winter finally comes to an end here in
Shelburne so does the Shelburne Minor Hockey season...BUT...not before one final bit of excitement at the CDRC!
Congratulations to the Midget Rep’s who
have earned their way through to the OMHA
Championship Finals! Following on a win at
home last Friday night in front of a packed
CDRC arena, Shelburne faced a lightning fast
South Bruce away on Saturday night for game

Ask a psychotherapist
BY ALISON KERR, PH.D.
Question: My 15-year-old son has always
been a good kid but lately I’ve been smelling
alcohol on his breath on the weekends and after he’s been to a friend’s after school. When
I asked him about it, he says that some of his
friends’ dads offer him beer whenever he visits.
He says it’s ok because it’s “only” beer and if
other parents are ok with it, why can’t we be?
We don’t let him drink at home. Am I just being too uptight?
Answer: Leaving aside the fact that it’s illegal
in Ontario to serve alcohol to anyone under 19,
both parents and kids need to learn about the
particular harms that alcohol can do to developing young brains. Adolescents who start drinking at 15 are four times more likely to abuse
alcohol as adults than kids who start drinking
later.
The latest neuroscience research is showing
that the brain is not finished developing until
somewhere between the ages of 24 and 26.
During the adolescent years, the prefrontal
cortex (or thinking part of the brain) is developing rapidly and catching up with the more
emotional parts of the brain that are responsible
for memory, feelings and impulsiveness among
other things. Consequently, adolescents are
prone to be risk-takers and experimenters while
often displaying a lack of judgment or foresight
about the potential long-term consequences of
their behaviours.
Alcohol not only causes adolescent judgment to go off-line during consumption but it
has been shown to delay and in some cases to
irrevocably harm the developing brain of the
young. Binge-drinking (more than 5 drinks at a
sitting) and blackouts are especially damaging
to teen brains.
exciting as they can. “We’re looking to fill our
stands and make this series as exciting as we
can for our players and our home town crowd
and we have some special things in store!” Amy
Green, OMHA Director for SMHA said, “The
run for an OMHA Championship is a rare and
special occurrence in any centre and we’re very
proud of our boys in making it this far”. Amy is

Why is this government such a
failure when it comes to jobs?
Dear editor:
When you look at the numbers, it is clear that
the Conservative federal government has been
a major failure on jobs, and Prime Minister
Stephen Harper’s indifference to all those who
are struggling to get decent full-time work is
shocking.
There are 140,000 more jobless Canadians
today than before the recession. Last year the
economy generated fewer jobs than the year before, which was down from the year before that.
Job quality has hit a 25 year low according
to CIBC. Lower paying jobs are growing faster
than better paying ones, and more Canadians
are in precarious positions. In fact, Canada has
the third highest level of low-paying jobs in any
developed country, according to the OECD.
Not everyone is blind to reality. The Bank of

Canada worries that job market conditions are
worse than the headline numbers suggest—the
number of long-term unemployed has barely
gone down, many part-time workers who want
full-time positions can’t get them and some
have given up looking for work altogether.
Odds are that you know a young graduate
who has been struggling for years to get their
career established, taking part-time work and
contracts just to get by—sometimes well outside their field.
Mr. Harper’s only response to these everyday struggles is to blame the recession. But the
recession ended six years ago. He inherited a
large surplus, squandered our fiscal strength
and put us into deficit BEFORE the recession
even began.
While he claims to be focused on growth, Mr.
Harper’s priority is to implement a $2 billion
tax cut—Income Splitting—that will overwhelmingly benefit the wealthiest, completely
exclude 85% of Canadian households, and do
nothing to generate economic growth.
Instead of Income Splitting, Canadians would
be further ahead with a vigorous plan for investments in community infrastructure, post-secondary learning and skills, and research and
innovation.
Those are some of the elements of a growth
agenda. With better policies—and hope, ambition and hard work—Canada can regain its economic momentum and rebuild the legitimate
expectation of progress, from one generation to
the next.

Shelburne man faces impaired charges, again
SHELBURNE
FREE PRESS
In the early afternoon on Friday March 6th
while on patrol, a Shelburne police officer noticed a man he recognized driving a car on town
streets. The officer was familiar with this man
and was aware that he was arrested and charged
by one of his colleagues in January for impaired
operation and over 80 in Shelburne.
All impaired and over 80 charges result in
immediate 90 day driver’s licence suspensions
so the officer knew that this man was driving
while his licence was under suspension.
The officer pulled the car over to deal with
the suspension issue. While conducting the investigation, the officer developed concerns that
the man had been drinking alcohol resulting in
his arrest.
As a result of the investigation, 33 year old
Travis Burke of Shelburne was arrested and
charged with Driving While Under Suspension,
and Over 80 Operation of a Motor Vehicle.
This was Burke’s second Over 80 charge in two
months.
Burke was released on a promise to appear
with a court date later in March.
If anyone has any information in relation to
this case or any other criminal activity, they are
encouraged to contact the Shelburne Police Service at 519-925-3312 or anonymously through

When freezing temperatures, grey skies and
the occasional polar vortex blast gets you down,
it sometimes seems like winter will never end.
If the Winter Blues are zapping your energy
here are some things that can lift your spirits.
Exercise. It can be hard to find the motivation
to exercise when all you want to do is bundle
up on the couch with a good book and a warm
duvet, but exercise really does help. When you
exercise, your body releases chemicals that
boost your sense of well-being and suppresses
hormones that cause stress and anxiety.
Eat Healthy. What you eat has a great affect
on your mood and energy. Avoid refined and
processed foods, which lack nutrients. They actually zap your energy. Eat more complex carbohydrates like veggies and fruit and remember
to drink 8 cups of water. Healthy food provides
the body with nutrients which stabilizes your
energy levels.
Get Some Sun. Spending time outdoors and
exposure to Vitamin D improves your mood.
Similar to exercise the sunlight releases chemicals that affect your mood. Lack of sunlight can
cause many people to become depressed without knowing why. Keep your shades up during
the day, sit near a wind in restaurants or during
class. Also try changing your light bulbs to “full
spectrum” bulbs which mimic natural light and
actually have the same affects on your mind as
the sun itself.
Treat Yourself. Having something to look forward to can keep anyone motivated. Winter can
seem endless however, if you plan something
exciting, your mood improves when you’re anticipating it and when the event finally happens.
Whether its a day at the spa, a night away or an
entire week away plan something exciting.
Relax. Even if you enjoy being busy, everyone needs time off every now and then. Don’t
be afraid to say no in order to spend some time
just doing nothing! Read a book, sleep in on the
weekend, going to bed early, trying meditation
or take a yoga class. Relaxing can alleviate
stress while mental exercise like meditating enforces positive thinking.
Ask for Help. Do not underestimate the power
of friends, family, co-workers and neighbours.

My Favourite Little Coffee Shop
I have been a fan of the flavoured coffee of
the day rotation at my favourite little coffee
shop Jelly Craft Cafe for at least the last
6 years.
Anyone who drinks coffee depends on
getting a quality product to help get them
through the day. So being a regular at Jelly
Craft is where I like to start each morning.
All the employees know me by name and
know that I drink a medium flavoured coffee every morning. Most of the regular faces I have seen there over the years have
become people whom I look forward to
seeing and chatting with every day.
Each day Jelly Craft brews a container of
regular coffee and a container of flavoured
coffee. Every day the flavoured coffee
changes and the only day I know what it
will be is Wednesday’s when they serve
Hockley Dark
A BRUNETTE WITH
THE BODY OF A BLONDE.
Our Brewmaster had a penchant for
English ale, so he created something better,
combining two styles of ales he fancied
while studying and brewing his way
across the UK. It’s an ingenius hybrid of a
Northern Brown Ale and a Midlands Mild,
with a body tweaked to give it a lighter,
more North American appeal.
Hints of roasted nuts, caramel,
chocolate, and coffee combine to make
this award winner one of Ontario’s
best-selling craft beers.
www.hockleybeer.ca
Chocolate Raspberry, my all time most
absolute favourite. I never miss a Wednesday, even if I am sick and have to drag myself in, it’s that good.
On special day’s when I feel like splurging,
I buy one of Jelly’s Craft’s many daily made
mouthwatering pastries or a muffin. I have
two that I can’t say no two if they happen to
catch my eye. One is their banana chocolate chip muffin the other is there pastry
loaded full of a half cream cheese half
strawberry filling.
Next time you are downtown Shelburne
stop by Jelly Craft Cafe located at 120 Main
Street and try one of their many different
coffee’s, daily made goodies, home made
soups or monster size sandwiches they
make. You will not regret it.

Midget Rep earn spot in
OMHA Championships
The Midget Rep’s, sponsored by the Team at Shelburne Home Hardware, has earned their way through
to the OMHA Championship Finals.
Following on a win at home last Friday night in
front of a packed CDRC arena, Shelburne faced a
lightning fast South Bruce away on Saturday night
for game 4. Shelburne entered the South Bruce arena
up one with a 2–1 lead in the semi-final series. With
less than two minutes into the game, Isaac Fazackerley split the defense and scored on a break-away
giving Shelburne an early 1–0 lead. In the second,
defenseman Darren Taylor added another with a blistering bullet from the blue line and the team hung on
to defend that 2–0 lead right through the third – and
clinching their spot in the OMHA Championship Finals!
After the game, coaching member Dave Ritchie
said “a lot of credit goes to our defense tonight. They
were rock-solid and the whole team feeds off the
confidence of their goalie Eric Johnson who played
yet another amazing game”. Added Scott Holmes,
“When we come out to play, we’re a tough team to
beat. Our forwards understand what their job is on
the ice and when we move the puck well and they
stick to their roles, we get the chances we need to put
the puck in the net”.
SMHA Vice President Chris Reed said the Association is already planning to make the championship round as exciting as they can. “We’re looking
to fill our stands and make this series as exciting as
we can for our players and our home town crowd and
we have some special things in store!” Amy Green,
OMHA Director for SMHA said, “The run for an
OMHA Championship is a rare and special occurrence in any centre and we’re very proud of our boys
in making it this far”. Amy is currently working on
scheduling the final round.

The Shelburne Wolves Midget rep team battles it out with South Bruce during game three of their semi-final series. The Wolves wrapped it up with a
2–0 win on Saturday, March 7, in Teeswater to take the series and advance to the championship round. The Wolves will face Port Dover in the final.
By BRiAN LOCkHARt
The Shelburne Wolves Midget rep team is
going to the final round of the Ontario Minor
Hockey Association playoffs after winning
their semi final series against South Bruce in
four games.
The Wolves capped the series with a 2–0 win
in Teeswater on Saturday (Mar. 7).
The series got underway on Feb. 27, with
South Bruce taking the first game 3–1 on Shelburne home ice.
Back for game two on March 1, the Wolves
regrouped and came out on top with a 3–0 shutout on the road to tie the series at one.
Returning to the Centre Dufferin Recreation
Complex in Shelburne on Friday, March 6, for
game three, the Wolves got the edge when they
put up a superior defence that kept South Bruce
to the outside and started the game with most of
the action being contained in the South Bruce
zone.
Shelburne opened the scoring in the first period then scored again in the second frame with
6:02 left on the clock.

The South Bruce team responded with a single after a scramble in front of the Wolves net
with 1:48 remaining in the period.
A third Shelburne goal came with :20 seconds
left in the period.
After no scoring in the third frame the Wolves
left the ice with a 3–1 lead and a 2–1 series advantage.
“We did what we had to do to win that game
tonight,” said Wolves head coach Mike Glassford after Friday’s game. “When we want to
play we can play with the best of them.”
The Wolves defence have been keeping the
shots down allowing only four goals in the series up til that point.
“We’ve been strong the whole playoffs, (defensively). Johnson (goalie Eric) was on fire
last Sunday when he got the shut-out and he’s
still rolling here now. Our defence has been
very strong,” Glassford said.
The squad was confident going into game
three in front of a large hometown crowd with
a good contingent of South Bruce fans making
the trek to support their team.
“We knew what we needed to do. We got
the pucks deep and finished when we should,”
Said Wolves right winger Isaac Fazackerley.
“We played the body and finished out hits. Our
defence stood them up and got the puck out
quick.”
Getting ready for game four of the series, the
Friday night win gave the Wolves the mental
edge before heading up to Teeswater on Saturday.
“I think we all played amazing tonight, “Said
Wolves left winger, Jake Currie of the squad’s
performance on Friday. “Everyone really
worked hard. The first game they beat us so we
knew we had to come out hard tonight.”
The final win on Saturday moves the Wolves
Midget to the championship final.
The Wolves won their preliminary round
with a sweep over Mariposa, then went on to
dispatch Norwood in the quarter-final round
winning the series 3–0.
Going to the championship final, the Wolves
will face Port Dover in the final showdown for
the OMHA championship.

Crossroads Community Church
Sunday March 8th, 2015
The Sunshine this morning gave us a glimpse of
Spring; as sure as the sun rises every day so is the
Lord faithful in every season of our lives. We worshiped with gladness and heart, Pastor Don shared
announcements and prayed, “Dear Father God we
ask for you ever present guidance to be with us, lead
us on the straight path to eternal life and help us stay
on course despite the storms that may come, in Jesus
name Amen.”
It has been an enlightening and beautiful journey
through Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. As we conclude today we will observe Matthew 7:13-27. Jesus
presents us with two paths to choose from and both
are eternal however not both lead to happily ever after, “You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the
narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its
gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But
the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it,” Matthew 7:13,14.
One promises eternal blessing in God’s presence the
other eternal misery and destruction. Jesus says it is
easy to enter the wide easy gate and many find it as
it offers no restrictions and anything goes much like
we see in the world around us today.
This path promises pleasure, riches and we can
just hit cruise control without any diligence, and we
are sure to find lots of company along the way but
it leads to destruction. Is this the kind of life God
wants for us? This life may seem all fun and carefree
but it soon becomes empty. It is much more difficult
to attain God’s standards , as in the story of the young
rich ruler who thought highly of himself and thought
he was a pretty “Good Guy” keeping the rules, but
when Jesus asked him to give up all he had , help the
poor and follow Him He turned away disappointed,
(Matthew 19:21-22).
Now let us not tie our knickers in a knot, this
doesn’t mean every single Christian will be asked
to sell everything and give it away, Jesus has differ-
ent callings on each of us and they usually deal with
whatever it is that seems to have a higher value in
our hearts than Him. We ought to be willing to give
up whatever it is that He asks as we should never let
anything come between us and God.
The way to eternal life with God is different; it begins with a narrow gate which is Jesus himself. There
may be only one that can enter at a time but there
is enough room for all of humanity if they choose
to enter, (John 10:9). It is true by today’s human
standards, Jesus may seem narrow minded when He
claims to be the only way to God, (John 14:6). As
the Way He is our path to the Father, as the Truth He
is the reality of all God’s promises and as the Life
He joins his divine life with ours for eternity but we
must choose Him. It won’t be easy, we will have to
leave baggage behind, our arrogance, pride, selfish
wants and we will have to relinquish our will to conform to His. We will face sacrifice, tribulation and
persecution all for His sake, (Matthew 16:24, Acts
14:22, 2 Timothy 3:12). When we are questioned and
judged for the way we live we shouldn’t get weary
as we continue to live the way we know we should
we are pleasing God and that is enough because He
loves us and He sent His Son to die for us when we
were still lost sinners, He did this so we may have
life and have it more abundantly.
We can all remember through the last century the
countless so called prophets and evangelists predicting the end of the word, they deceived many poor
souls with their appearance of good and holy, but
turned out to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing, Jim Jones
comes to mind if you can remember that far. Jesus
forewarned us about false messiahs and prophets,
(Matthew 7:15, 24:24). It may be difficult to spot
but usually they are very self-centered, self-serving,
and self-promoting. Their teachings are quite radical,
they inspire death, destruction and hatred behind a
veil of apparent love and peace and they don’t profess Jesus as God nor do they preach the Gospel of
Christian perspectives: thankfulness
What is God’s will?
That is a great question
– one that we often ask
ourselves, particularly
at critical junctures in
our lives where a major
decision is to be made.
Do we take the job and
move the family? Do
we buy the house now
or wait? We’re not going to be able to open
our Bibles and find specific answers to those
questions. We search
for God’s will in those
situations, but do we
ever take the time to see
what God’s Word clearly says is His will?
How can we ask God
for His will when we
don’t know how He’s
already asked us to respond? When we don’t
know what our attitude
is to be? Before we get
to asking God for His
will in a specific situation, it’s crucial that we
understand His clearly defined will for us
in all situations. He’s
shared it plainly in His
Word yet in this age of
immediate gratification
where libraries of information and answers to
many questions are just
a click away we expect
quick, easy answers.
So what does God say
is His will? 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 says:
Always be joyful.
Never stop praying.
Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is
God’s will for you who
belong to Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 5:20 says:
Give thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our
Lord Jesus Christ.
Pretty simple, right?
Are you thankful – in
all circumstances? It’s
easy to be thankful
when things are going our way. My son’s
birthday is coming up,
and I know that when
he opens his gift up,
there will be thankfulness in his eyes. Are we
only thankful when we
receive what we see as
“gifts” from God? What
about the other stuff in
your life? The stuff
you definitely wouldn’t
call a gift? Can you be
thankful?
I can’t even begin
to know what difficult things are going
on in your life. Things
I may never have nor
ever will experience.
Based on my own experiences, how could I
tell you to be thankful?
But it’s God who says
that it is His will that
we are thankful. God,
who wrote those words
knowing every tough
situation that every
person would ever go
through! All circumstances means exactly
that – all circumstances.
True thankfulness flows
from an understanding
and knowledge of how
loved, valued and precious you are to God.
Do you know how precious you are? Precious
enough that He sent His
Son Jesus, who was
lacking nothing by His
Father’s side, to come
down and die in your
place. You’re loved.
You can be thankful.
Thankfulness
(or
lack thereof) is a good
indicator of our understanding of God and
His Word. Thankfulness shows that we
trust His promises and
what He says about His
character. God’s character never changes.
He’s always loving. Do
you believe that, even
when things are tough?
Can you be thankful,
knowing that He cares?
Thankfulness can flow
when we know and understand God’s promises. Can you take the
promises from James 1,
apply them to your situation and be thankful?
Dear brothers and
sisters, when troubles
of any kind come your
way, consider it an opportunity for great joy.
For you know that when
your faith is tested, your
endurance has a chance
to grow. So let it grow,
for when your endurance is fully developed,
you will be perfect
and complete, needing
nothing. (James 1:2-4)
The trial you find
yourself in is hard no doubt about it. But
don’t waste it. See it for
what it is – an opportunity for you faith in God
to grow. It’s an opportunity for great joy, and
something that we can
incredibly thankful for.
Thankfulness takes
our focus off of the situation and places it on
God – where it should
be. It keeps us rooted
in the truths of who
God is and what He has
done for us. These are
Page 9
Salvation through Christ. They promote immorality,
greed and lies, (2 Peter 2”1).
We know what a false prophet looks like, so how
does God measure a Good one by? In scripture we
often hear of fruit, it signifies goodness and prosperity, figuratively it often was used to determine whether a person was good or bad, “we can identify a tree
by its fruit” was often heard, (Matthew 7:16-20). In
God’s Kingdom fruit are not material things but spiritual attributes, (Galatians 5:22-23). Now some may
say they are good and don’t need Jesus or the Church
because they pride themselves by the good they do.
As Christians we believe that any good we are able
to do is by God’s grace and mercy, and we could never match the goodness of Jesus and His sacrifice for
us. When we do good more often than none it goes
unnoticed by man but acknowledged by God himself
and that is more than enough. Despite our imperfections we continue to do good because we are empowered by the Spirit of God, it is not of ourselves and
this is what brings God the Glory. So when we apply
this measure to evaluate a teacher of God’s word we
will see it reflected in their daily lives. Their actions
will match what they preach and they will be walking closely with God, their relationship with Jesus
will manifest in all they do.
Beloved how can we reflect this kind of fruit you
may ask? We need to know Jesus, spend time with
Him in the Word and in prayer, we need His constant flow of power to live as we should, learn from
Him and obey. That is the strong foundation He was
talking about in His parable of Matthew 7:24-27. The
more time we spend with Him the more our behavior will change for the better; we will be devoted to
one another in love. Honor one another above ourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, and keeping our
spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. We will be joyful
in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. When
storms of life come we will be able to stand on Jesus
our Rock, and when others see, they too will believe!

truths that transcend
any situation you find
yourself in. Thankfulness will pull you out of
self pity and let you see
what God wants to accomplish. Thankfulness
keeps us from being self
absorbed. Thankfulness
stops us from spending
our time worrying.
Worrying won’t stop the ‘bad’ stuff from happening;
but it stops you from enjoying the good stuff!

td canada truSt SheLburne WeLcomeS neW manaGer – Maggie Bachan has joined
the team at TD Canada Trust in Shelburne. The Brampton native replaces former Branch Manager,
Lorrie Brennan, who retired after 35 years with TD a few weeks ago. Bachan says she is looking
forward to overseeing the branch and its tellers, but admits that the bank is already running pretty
smoothly. “Everyone here is so customer focused,” Bachan told the Free Press, and reminds the
public, “I’m always here for help and advise.” On why residents of Shelburne should choose TD
Canada Trust, Bachan had this to say, “We will meet all of your banking needs – from personal
loans, to commercial accounts and everything in between. We have longer hours and new, innovative bank machines, as well as 24-hour Internet and phone banking available to our customers.”
Drop into the branch, located at the intersection of Main and Owen Sound Street, in the heart of
downtown Shelburne, anytime to meet Bachan, and give her a big welcome to the community!

From July 10 to 26, 2015 the Pan Am Games
are coming to Toronto. The Pan Am Games are
the 3rd largest international multi-sport games
after the Olympics and the Asian games and
takes place every four years. Athletes from
across Latin America, South America, the Caribbean and North America participate.
The first Pan Am Games took place in 1951
in Buenos Aires and included 2513 participants
from 14 nations. Today with over 41 participating nations, it is expected to have over 7000
participants. All of the sports in the Pan Am
Games are also in the Olympics, as it serves as
a qualifying tournament to them. The Parapan
Am Games are held immediately following
their respective Pan Am Games.
Three-thousand torchbearers will proudly carry the flame on a 41-day journey towards lighting the cauldron on July 10, 2015 to officially
open the Games. The Pan Am flame represents
the history and spirit of the Games and is traditionally lit outside Mexico City in Teotihuacan
at the Pyramid of the Sun, in a ceremony led by
native Aztecs. Following the lighting, the flame
will be handed over to a representative from the
Host City, then it is flown back to Canada to begin its nationwide journey. Although the flame
comes as close as Alliston and Orangeville it
does not travel directly through Shelburne.
With over 20,000 volunteers involved during
the event it is anticipated to generate $150 million in business revenue in the Greater Golden
Horseshoe area of Ontario. Venues are located
in municipalities across southern Ontario from
Oshawa to Welland. Close to home the Pan Am
Cross-Country Center is located at the Will O’
Wind Farm in Mono, ON, and will serve as the
Pan Am Cross-Country Centre for the thrilling
one-day equestrian cross-country event. The
world-class Caledon Pan Am Equestrian Park
will welcome competitors in the disciplines of
Jumping and Dressage.
Some of the most in-demand tickets for the
Pan Am Games are going fast, while tickets to
key events such as the Opening Ceremony have
already been snapped up.
Make sure you’ve got your tickets to the top
events before they’re gone!

Parapan Am Games go to www.toronto2015.

WorLd day of Prayer – Shelburne and area churches shared in World Day of Prayer on
March 6th. Service took place at the Mel Lloyd Centre where Laina Kingdon (seen front and centre
in this photo at a United Church Women’s luncheon) gave a presentation about prayer. “It is an
awesome privilege,” said Laina, a member of Bethel Bible Chapel in Shelburne, “for us to be able,
by our prayers to help people who are close to us as well as people on the other side of the world.”
The motto for World Day of Prayer is “Informed Prayer and Prayerful Action” promoting the belief
that prayer and action are indivisible. The theme this year, “Radical Love” was created by the women of the Bahamas to celebrate their faith, culture and islands as they led women across the world
in prayer. Since its founding in 1922, a portion of offerings received at each World Day of Prayer
Service go to local and global projects in need. Many area churches participate in the planning and
presentation of the worship service including Bethel Bible Chapel, Trinity United Church, St. Paul’s
Anglican Church, St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic Church, Grace Church of the Nazarene, Crossroads
Church, and Abiding Place Ministries. Next year, Helen Redmond and Elisabeth Liekermoser from
St. Patrick’s Church will arrange the event to be held, once again, at the Mel Lloyd Center.
Late start to maple syrup season
by mIcheLLe auSten
Life isn’t as sweet as some maple farmers
would like these days. The recent cold temperatures are preventing the sap from flowing out of
maple trees, putting a damper on syrup production season.
Ontario’s maple syrup season usually runs
from February through April, with warm days
and cold nights providing the ideal condition
for collecting sap. The lack of warmer daytime
temperatures is not allowing sap to travel up the
tree to be collected. Ideal conditions for sap to
flow fluctuate between -4 degrees at night and 5
degrees during the day.
Now for those of you with a sweet tooth,
there is no need to worry, there is still plenty
of time in the season for things to bounce back.
As the world’s fourth largest producer of maple syrup, Ontarians have long know about this
delight first introduced by North American natives when European settlers first arrived.
Early settlers learned the process of boiling
sap and have since improved the methods,
however, the process remains unchanged since
those early days. It takes 30-40 gallons of sap
to boil down to one gallon of maple syrup and
typically a sugar maple tree has to be about
35 years old before it becomes productive. In
a good year the sap from one tap will produce
one litre of syrup. Sap directly from a tree is not
very sweet and by condensing it, it becomes the
sweet nectar we know it to be.
With over 500 producers belonging to the
Ontario Maple Syrup Producers Association,
lovers of maple products have a lot of choice
when it come to choosing a maple delight.
Whether you purchase maple syrup from a road
side producer, a country store or a supermarket, be sure to look for the Ontario Maple Seal
of Quality for a syrup that has been made by
a conscientious producer using best practices.
Once opened, containers of syrup should be
refrigerated, while tightly sealed containers of
syrup can be frozen for up to one year. However, the best way to experience maple products is
to visit a local sugar shack, where many local
producers have visitors taste freshly made syrup drizzled on snow.
A day at a sugar shack is both educational and
delicious!

ScotIabank SuPPortS GLenbrook – The Scotiabank in Shelburne made a special visit
to Glenbrook Elementary students last week to present a $5000 cheque to match funds raised by
students at their February 13th Freaky Friday dance-a-thon. Glenbrook’s Parent Council says “the
funds from the dance go to a number of projects including the playground, scientists in the school,
artists in the school, library programs and books. Students worked hard to fill pledge sheets with
sponsorships, help with decorations, music and motivating everyone to get involved.. Tom Thompson the principal at Glenbrook Elementary says the “dance-a-thon was a tremendous success
thanks to the support that we received from our School Council, students, staff and parents.” The
hardworking school raised $5,601.26 at the event and Scotia Bank matched the $5000 for a total of
$10601.26. The dance-a-thon is Glenbrook’s biggest annual fundraiser; in 2014 the school ended
the year with over $15000 in their playground account and continue to be creative with traditional
fundraising, including pizza days and candy grams. The Parent Council hope to create a playground for physical exercise, but also one that will facilitate the arts, science, math and language
components of the school curriculum. The cost will be in the tens of thousands of dollars and they
continue to look for support, such as that so gratefully received from the Scotiabank.
