Fifty years have passed since the original Pioneer Club members joined to record and celebrate the rich history of their ancestors in the communities of Addington Highlands and North Frontenac.

 

On Saturday June 24, 2022, about 60 museum supporters gathered in Benny’s Lake Heritage Park in Cloyne. We tapped our toes to the “North of 7 Bluegrass” stylings of The New Pickled Chicken, enjoyed barbeque lovingly prepared by Janet and Joe Wilson and Cathy Newcombe, and reconnected with each other after two long years of COVID, and the storms that have recently ravaged our area.

 

During words of welcome from by Shirley Sedore and Ken Hook, the museum staff, Rebecca Delyea, Josie Heyman, and Jacob Heyman distributed delicious, frosted chocolate and vanilla cupcakes. Margaret Axford spoke the genesis of the Pioneer Club and its’ 50-year evolution of documenting the lived experiences of the local people. The community has continued to diversify and grow, with waves of new members from “South of 7” who come seeking the rugged beauty of this beloved land.

 

Catherine Grant of the Cloyne District Historical Society’s Board formally welcomed the communities of Griffith and Matawatchan to the CDHS catchment area, an effort championed by Lois and Mark Thomson, publishers of the Madawaska Highlander. Thomson remarked that the consolidation is logical as the communities of Denbigh, Vennacher, Griffith and Matawatchan have many important historical linkages.

 

Nancy Strachan of the Land O’Lakes Garden Club spoke to the Truth and Reconciliation Medicine Wheel that has been thoughtfully and beautifully created as a remembrance to the Indigenous children who lost their lives and suffered staggering traumas in the Canadian residential school system. The garden lies between the Museum and the Barrie Hall on Highway 41. Strachan said that garden is designed as a large medicine wheel, featuring four sacred plants: cedar, sage, sweetgrass, and tobacco. It is the Garden Club’s hope that this space can be used as an open and safe meeting place for dialogue and storytelling among Indigenous and Settler communities, so that together we may acknowledge the past and begin to heal.

 

The Cloyne Pioneer Museum will be open every day from 10 am to 4 pm through Labour Day. Stop by for a museum tour or to pick up one of our many books about local history.

The series‘ twenty-first honorary member lives beyond the neighborhood, East of Texas Street into the nebulous zone where Normal Heights and North Park meet. I don’t recall whether this fine feline was seen on parallel streets Meade, Madison, or Monroe but for sure somewhere before 30th.

 

For appearing to be so stout, the beastie earns nickname Timber. You also could credit the tree to the right and its shadow on the building to the left as another reason for the moniker.

As everyone is aware, Hurricane Sandy crashed into the Northeastern states in late October, causing mass devastation. We’ve all seen the news stories of families affected by winds, floods and fire, but some of our own Corizon family has been affected as well. The next two pages share just a few of their stories.

NEW JERSEY

After Hurricane Sandy hit, all of the New Jersey sites were operating on generator power. Wardens worked with Corizon New Jersey leadership and the National Guard to have essential medical staff in each site, despite sporadic phone and cell service from down towers.

 

The Regional Office did sustain some damage, but medical services at the facilities never ceased. The Corizon New Jersey teams showed exemplary measures of true teamwork.

 

We would like to thank Gale Gargiulo, VPO, for the updates and are happy to say her family was evacuated and are okay!

NEW YORK

Rikers Island sites were prepared for, but unaffected by the storm. Employees conducted personal fundraising efforts to help those in need in Rockaway, Far Rockaway and Long Beach areas, where some Corizon employees lost everything.

 

Manhattan Detention Complex also operated on back-up generator service as Sandy hit NYC. Generators provided enough energy for light and heat, so on-duty staff were able to continue service. Many staff were sleeping on cots and working multiple shifts as others were stranded with no transportation to get to work. Even if they had transportation, gas shortages from no electricity to turn on pumps are affecting everyone, even watching some people run out of gas waiting in the gas lines.

 

Jane Lachner, VPO, has family in Rockaway and Breezy Point where her brother, mother and sister’s homes all had up to 9-feet of water in their basements. Everyone with cars lost them, and many still have no heat or electricity. Her cousin, a fireman in Breezy Point, also lost his home to a fire.

 

In an email from an organization called MoveOn they said, “People still don’t have power or water, basements are still flooded, gas shortages have made it hard to run generators, and temperatures are getting down into the 30s. MoveOn members who have volunteered have told us about finding families wet and shivering in the cold. It’s gotten so bad that Doctors Without Borders has set up their first-ever disaster relief effort in the US.”

 

Our continued thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by this tragedy.

www.arqueologiadelperu.com/12000-year-old-puppy-preserved...

YAKUTSK, RUSSIA—Scientists at North-Eastern Federal University (NEFU) have autopsied the remains of a three-month-old female dog thought to have died during a landslide near the Syallakh River some 12,450 years ago. (Two twigs in her stomach suggest that she tried to grab onto nearby plants with her teeth.) The puppy, whose fur, skin, bones, and internal organs are intact, was discovered in permafrost by two men who were looking for mammoth tusks in an area where hikers have found stone and bone tools and weapons. Was the puppy an early domestic breed? “Our task is to estimate the preservation of the ancient animal tissues at the macro and micro level. What is of real interest is the fact the animal has a completely preserved carcass, which is unique by itself, with nothing like it in the world. Although the tissues are mummified, they have no post-mortem decomposition, as it usually happens with biological material,” Darima Garmaeva of the NEFU Medical Institute told The Siberian Times. Members of the dog research project will return to the site with archaeologists this summer to look for evidence of early dog owners. To read more about the archaeology of dogs, go to "More Than Man's Best Friend."

This ginger, accompanied by rodent buddy, is the tenth honorary member of the series, being about a block beyond boundary for UH.

 

For reasons I hope that are obvious, the pair earn nicknames Tom and Jerry after the cartoon cat and mouse (understanding neither looks anything like their animated counterparts).
