By Dave ScottLife kinda’ has a way of getting back to the place it started. Sometimes our plans seem to stray for a bit before they get back on course.

Local artist, Vic Gibbons, thought way back in 1981 he would like to have a studio at his home… little did he know it would take this long. Last fall, Vic told me he was closing The Olde Town Gallery in Simcoe… he had decided to move his studio to his home. It was time for a change and it would give Vic an opportunity to enjoy his home a little more.

Last time I visited Vic he was just finishing up at the store. He looked tired and I could tell the move was taking a toll on him.

Last week I drove out to Vic’s home. It is nestled out on the 8th Concession, West of Simcoe. Pulling in his lane, it is easy to see how Vic gets inspired to paint… the setting is perfect and when you walk in the studio you are in the right frame of mind to enjoy browsing through Vic’s many works.

Visiting Vic at his new studio… he seemed to have that vigour back… and yet he seemed very relaxed… we sat and chatted about the change and it was not long before a couple of customers

came in and Vic was off helping them with their needs.

It was great to see Vic smiling as he chatted with the customers explaining some of his works.

I asked how business was, Vic said it had been steady; folks that stop by are buying pieces… like I said earlier when you pull into the lane… you instantly get a better understanding of the man and his work… it all comes together… you know it might have taken a while for Vic to make it home… but this is the right fit… the smile on Vic’s face says it all.

Give Vic a call and head out for a visit… 519-428-1329.

Roberto, age 32, single with no dependants, is

buying his first house. The bank offers him mortgage insurance to cover his mortgage balance in the event of his death, which at first Roberto declines. After all, he doesn’t have any dependants if anything happens to him. He reconsiders and

decides he doesn’t want to burden his family with selling the house to pay off the mortgage. So, Roberto decides to purchase mortgage insurance.

Over the next few years, Roberto gets married, finances a new car and contributes to his Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP). After their two children arrive, Roberto and Gabriela put money away to save for their education. As the children, grow they decide to move their family into a bigger house. They fall in love with a house in a neighbourhood that is perfect for raising children, and need to refinance the original mortgage. Once again, the bank offers them mortgage insurance to cover the new mortgage. But this time, with their additional debt and dependants, they wonder if mortgage insurance is really the right choice. As part of their research, Roberto and Gabriela consult their advisor. They are a little confused when he suggests a personally owned term insurance policy is a better solution. After all, Roberto already has adequate life insurance,

or so he thought. Their advisor explains that although Roberto has insurance coverage, they should protect their family from the additional debt load they would assume. Personally owned term insurance not only protects their family, but also offers some additional benefits. Let’s examine the differences between mortgage and term insurance.

Mortgage insurance is offered by most banks and lending institutions. They’ll offer it to you when you get a mortgage or refinance your existing one. It’s an insurance policy that pays the balance of your mortgage to the lending institution if you, the person listed on the mortgage, pass away. Mortgage insurance provides a life insurance amount equal to your remaining debt. As your mortgage decreases, so does the payout you receive.

The cost of the insurance is based on the mortgage amount and your age at the onset of the mortgage, and the payments remain constant through the life of the policy. Essentially, you’re paying the same monthly premiums for a reducing amount of coverage as you pay down your mortgage. And mortgage insurance is great for the lender because it is listed as the beneficiary of your policy.

Term life insurance provides protection for a specified period of time. A death benefit is paid to your beneficiary if you die while the policy is still in force. When you purchase a term life policy, you are covered for the full amount of your mortgage, not just the outstanding balance, for the life of the policy. That means you have a constant level of coverage for the whole term. It’s

usually cheaper and you choose your beneficiaries. Also, the proceeds from your term insurance can be used in any way your beneficiary deems necessary – not just to repay the mortgage.

Buying a new home is the perfect time to purchase term insurance to protect your mortgage and your family. Based on its flexibility, coverage and price, term insurance is a superior option to mortgage insurance. Talk to your advisor about the benefits of term insurance, and how it can help your family keep the house you worked so hard for.

Big SplaSh Of The Week!

By MARG WERDEN

Carolinian Canada Coalition recognizes environmental contributionsThe Carolinian Canada Coalition (CCC) held its annual general meeting in Port Rowan last week and recognized two local individuals and one area organization for their contributions to the environment

by presenting them with the Carolinian Canada Conservation Awards.

“Although many people could receive these awards, today’s award winners are very deserving recipients,” said Caroline Biribauer, a CCC director. Among the winners were Dave Reid, Harry Barrett and the Long Point Causeway Improvement Project.

CCC Director Scott Peck presented the award to Dave Reid and said, “Dave is a committed, forward-thinking conservation leader in Norfolk County. He has worked for the Ministry of Natural Resources for 36 years and has been involved

in dozens of projects that have contributed to the Carolinian Canada landscape ranging from the reintroduction of the wild turkey in 1984 to, most recently, the successful Norfolk ALUS Pilot Project. He manages a 50-acre Carolinian Canada woodlot. Through years of dedication and strong vision, Dave has involved countless farm families across Norfolk in undertaking beneficial stewardship projects from wetland drain restoration projects to habitat creation projects. As you drive around Norfolk County you can see many sites that Dave has been involved in.”

The Long Point Causeway Improvement Project received an honourable mention in the group category. Begun in 2006, the project is a community-based effort to revitalize the 3.5 kilometre-long causeway between the mainland and the Long Point peninsula. Rick Levick, who accepted the award on behalf of the project, said, “In three years we have reduced reptile road kill by more than 50 per cent on the causeway and species-at-risk reptile road mortality is down by more than 60 per cent.”

CCC Board member Brian Craig introduced Lifetime Achievement

award winner Harry Barrett by saying it was impossible to sum up Harry’s contributions in just a few paragraphs. “Harry has touched my life by his writing and by his involvement in local organizations. He is past Founding President of both the Norfolk Field Naturalists and the Dover Mills Heritage Association. He was the founding chairman of the Long Point Foundation for Conservation and served as a director of the Federation of Ontario Naturalists. In 1986 he was appointed to the Ontario Heritage Foundation where he chaired the Niagara Escarpment Committee and served on the Carolinian Canada Committee and the Natural Heritage Committee.”

In accepting his award, Harry Barrett commended the Carolinian Canada Coalition for all they do in this area. “My first contact with CCC was in 1986 when I was appointed to the Ontario Heritage Foundation. At the time we were given $25 million to enhance the Niagara escarpment and the Bruce Trail and I think we spent it wisely as

the Bruce Trail is thriving today. We also developed a stewardship program that brought a lot of people in to protect Carolinian property for all time. I’ve met a lot of people committed to preserving Carolinian nature in this area. It’s been a great experience for a simple farm boy from Woodhouse Township.”

Other recipients of the awards included Deanna Lindblad, Port Colborne (Individual), Robert Bateman High School, Burlington (Youth), Waynco, Cambridge (Group), Bert Miller Nature Club, Fort Erie (Group), and George Francis, Waterloo (Lifetime Achievement).

Acorus Restoration

By Dave ScottI was invited to the Simcoe Special Olympics year-end Banquet at the Army Navy Hall in Simcoe last Sunday evening. The event is held annually to honour our local Special Olympic Athletes, their coaches and the many volunteers who assist with the many sports. The athletes

participate in activities such as swimming, softball, bowling and floor hockey to name a few.

The dinner was served… which was very delicious. The volunteers were honoured and the athletes chanted Shirley Shaw’s name when it was her turn to go up. Next it was time to congratulate the athletes

on their year’s work. Every single athlete was honoured and each time an athlete went up all the other participants would cheer them on.

It is great to witness the enthusiasm for each other… the camaraderie of this tight knit group is that of a true team.

Near the end of the evening the Stan & Doris Sheil Spirit Award was handed out to one female and male athlete… and the winners

were Trevor Holden and Anne Pritchard.

After all the awards were completed, the DJ cranked up the tunes and the dance floor exploded with athletes kicking up a storm.

I’ve got to say that these folks sure know how to throw a banquet… it was by far the most moving one I had been to in a long time… congrats to all the athletes, volunteers and coaches. Great job!

By Dave ScottDid you know that at the Judd farm (Meadow Lynn Farms) on Decou Road, they grow twelve different types of Strawberries and did you know that in a few short weeks the Strawberry patch will be ready for you to stop by and start picking?

I stopped by the farm and caught up with Sharon Judd who was busy making trails through the path for folks to walk on.

Sharon explained that the Judd family has been growing Strawberries as far back as the 1940’s and Sharon and her husband have carried on the tradition since 1984.

This year five and a half acres are planted which is a whopping 42,000 plants… and so far the crop is looking fantastic. The plants are in full bud and for every flower a strawberry will grow. It is estimated that around two million berries could be picked this year.

The planting took place May 22, 23, 24, and 25 and Sharon, like a mother hen, has been minding her Strawberries ever since

A couple of our local restaurants use the Meadow Lynn Farms’ berries, The Blue Elephant and The Belworth House… so when you order that delicious Strawberry treat… you can bet they are from our local fields.

Last year was a tough year for strawberries with a shortened season… but this year looks fabulous.

Make sure you follow Sharon on facebook or twitter so that you can be one of the first to stop by and pick your strawberries (Meadow Lynn farms).

I cannot begin to appreciate the dedication Sharon has towards her Strawberries. She works day and night to ensure the best product possible… years of experience and her expertise all come into play… making sure the strawberries won’t be picked until the absolute best time.

It won’t be long now so… load up the car with the kids, call grandma and grandpa and get those berries picked… make a day of it out in the sun… enjoying the fresh air… and the taste of some local fresh strawberries.

Well it was time to leave the farm, Sharon was busy heading off to gather some freezees for the staff who were busy weeding around the strawberries… and as I drove away all I could think about was stopping back out in a week or so and enjoying some Strawberries.

Courtesy of Simcoe Special OlympicsSimcoe Special Olympics is pleased to once again be part of the Law Enforcement Torch Run.

With endorsement of the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police, The first Law Enforcement Torch Run was held in 1987 and generated $100,000 in funds with the participation of Law Enforcement personnel from Southern Ontario including our Regional Police at the time. Sprucedale Youth Centre joined with the local Torch Run in the 1990’s

Nationally, the run has become an annual event in ten provinces and in the Northwest Territories. In Ontario alone, in excess of $16 million has been raised.

Since the Law Enforcement Torch Run began its partnership with Special Olympics Ontario, the number of registered athletes has grown from under 4,000 to greater than 17,000 athletes.

Currently we have 131 athletes, 30 coaches and 7 general volunteers registered with Simcoe Special Olympics.

Current sports our athletes participate in areFive and ten Pin Bowling

SwimmingFloor HockeyT-BallSoftball

This year we are introducing Golf and hoping to re-establish our curling program if we can find volunteers for this program.

We are very excited that our Floor Hockey Team will be participating in the Provincial Floor Hockey Championships taking place in Sudbury from June 9th to the 11th.

By Brent Flicks Recently Simcoe Composite School put on the musical SHOUT! This production is based around five young women in the swingin’ sixties. The women all live in England, and each have a distinct personality. Throughout the musical the audience follows the main characters,

witnessing their trials and tribulations, all of which involve men. SHOUT! is a magazine in which Oliver Holmes writes an advice column. The main characters write into Mr. Holmes, asking advice on relationships and life direction.

The director of this musical was Jim Carroll, who was also assisted by several student volunteers. The music was fantastic, which was to be expected considering Mark Rapley was the bandleader. There were two different casts that

performed. The first cast was: Brooke Mesley, Caroline Schmidt, Neale Bradshaw, Marissa Barber, and Kyla Monture. The second cast consisted of: Brooke Mesley, Hayley Baskerville, Cortney Cunningham, Emma Carroll, and Katie Borgehse. The narrator for both casts was Jacob Frieser. The acting was very comical, and these young ladies fit in perfectly with their character’s persona. I expect to see this young talent involved in other plays around the community in years to come.

2012 Eos

Form meets function meets totally irrational desire.The 2012 Eos is more than a convertible. It’s a sophisticated, four-season vehicle that’s airtight and ultra-quiet

at any speed. Not to mention it’s the only hardtop with a built-in panoramic sunroof. So whether it’s rain or shine,

you get the perfect climate at the touch of a button. Now that’s hard to top.
