9362-2207 with a listed address as 373-855 Rue Irène in Montreal, administrated by president and secretary, Benoit Carrière) was setting up for a non-agricultural activity in what is regulated as part of the green zone.The neighbours on Kuss road were shocked.They had not been given notice A linden tree is partially felled by Mother Nature into the parking area of Heroes\u2019 Memorial.of the impending activity and are alarmed by the disruption of their general harmony and quiet lifestyle.They are also wary of any negative impact to their local environment.For the past several weeks trucks loaded with equipment have been unloading on the property that is alleged to being used as the locale for TVA to film a new program.The production team has already brought in a food truck and installed it in a meadow up the hill from the house.As well, a dock has been built, pergola included, into the stream just northeast of the house.No permits for the construction and the nature of the activity have been issued.Lillian Sharko lives in the area and has become everyone\u2019s go-to person for neighbours.She was told that when neighbours went to see what was going on they were greeted by people there who said that they were a production = TA over activity at West rome \u20ac Property ANN DAVIDSON Construction of stairs and dock on the banks of a branch of the Yamaska River in West Brome was underway last week as a film crew prepares to shoot a 12-episode series for TVA.CONT'D ON PAGE 5 The land that was recently purchased for over $1 million is located in a green zone.Mother Nature revisits Heroes\u2019 Memorial By Louise Smith aturday a few thunder- S storms rolled through Cow- ansville.The one in the later evening included hail and strong winds.Flower pots and lawn furniture were relocated on many properties and several trees and large branches fell in different parts of town.Power was out in parts of Cowansville and Brigham from shortly after 9 p.m.until early in the morning.In front of Heroes\u2019 Memorial School on rue Sud, half of one of the linden trees was sheered off and the branches lay across the parking lot.Several months ago, in another storm, part of another tree had also been damaged.Tree damage has happened again.A tree closer to the school had several small branches broken in this storm but it was minor compared to the damage to the tree closer to the sidewalk.It was a good thing that school was not in session.All in all, it has been an odd summer weather-wise.Lots of rain and several strong-winded storms have visited the area.The good side effect has been the lush greens, which usually occur in spring and then fade during the drier summer months, have stayed in place.The lawns, bushes, and trees, have kept their spring brightness.Our autumns have been warm and colourful these past few years.Let\u2019s hope it is repeated for the autumn of 2017.COWANSVILLE TOYOTA Shane Sparling Conseiller en vente- Sales Consultant GROUPE ST-LOUIS TOYOTA COWANSVILLE NISSAN MAZDA A : RUE DE SALABERRY @) 450 263-8888 @@) groupestiouis.com PRINTED AND DISTRIBUTED BY PRESSREA p pressreader PressReader.com +1 604 278 ios COPYRIGHT AND PROTECTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ORIGINAL COPY ORIGINAL COPY ORIGINAL COPY ORIGINAL COPY ORIGINAL COPY OR PAGE 2 TUESDAY, AUGUST 15, 2017 Brome County NEws Brome County Community Bulletin Board August 16 Sutton Legion Bingo every Wednesday at the Sutton Legion, 2 Curley St.Sutton.Jackpot of $200 or more.Start at 6:30 p.m.Bring your friends and lucky charms.Info: 450 538-2864.Social night every Friday at the Sutton Legion.Come and play cribbage and bridge.Donation of $2.Come and have fun.August 18 Home Child, the play by Laura Teasdale will be presented on Friday, August 18, at 6 p.m.at 23 Valley View in Knowl- ton.Please bring a lawn chair or blanket.Admission is by free will offering.In case of rain the show will be at 91 Chemin Glen.Call Laura at 579-438-8816 for information.A beautiful outdoor theatre experience.August 19 The Mental Health & Well-Being Support Group.Please phone Linda: 450-243- 0928 or pleasantvalley001@gmail.com for the location of the meeting.Join us for an opportunity to share experiences in a safe environment and receive support, information, encouragement, and acceptance.Having support makes all the difference!

POEM À World In Distress By David Edmond A world diverse and in distress, but why oh why must that be so?From the beginning of time, the world has had its bouts of harmony and acrimony.What is it about mankind that peace and happiness cannot be found?A peace and happiness to last.Is it power sought by one or more?Is it jealousy between neighbours?If truth be told, the warring of peoples was actually foretold from Biblical times.Does not the Bible say, \u201cThou shalt not covet\u201d?So it would seem that mankind was destined to this state.The world we know today has grown and changed from that we knew one hundred years ago.Two global conflicts have done little good in bringing harmony into our lives, and neither has technology.Agreements made to keep the peace have little lasting power.For trust is never at the front of any settlement.The world has shrunk in later years because of rapid evolution in transportation and technology.Words spoken in the moment are known worldwide, tout-de-suite.There are no secrets hidden from view.Mistrust, distrust is never far away.Diversity of peoples should be a welcome state.To meet, to learn and live in harmony should be our main objective.However, it would appear, that what we do not know of others from afar, we hesitate to learn and understand.MCI and MWA underline their collaboration Ariane Orjikh General Manager

debut appearance delighting visitors.By Claudia Villemaire air Manager Mallory Gage Guthrie couldn\u2019t believe the crowd\u2019s good humour in spite of sporadic downpours, the odd rumble of thunder, and far from ideal conditions for a county fair this past weekend.\u201cI was amazed,\u201d she said cheerfully late Sunday as the 194th Bedford Fair came to a close.\u201cThe rain held off long enough Friday evening for our demolition derby to be able to come to a crashing finish, pleasing a capacity crowd on the grandstand.The team worked through the rain both Friday and Saturday for the pulling competitions and, unbelievably, crowds kept coming Barn dance supporting Walk for Wome By Ann Davidson Y ri Valley Optimist Club (YVO) President Ginette Couture says that the sixth annual barn dance at the Mason family farm in Iron Hill was a sellout with 300 tickets purchased for the supper and dance and at least 30 other people showed up just for the dance.The dance serves as a precursor for the annual Walk for Women\u2019s Cancers.Like the walk, the barn dance is an inclusive, affordable activity allowing all members of the community to participate in supporting the BMP Hospital as well as youth in the area.Stetsons, cowboy boots, plaid shirts, and jeans dominated the packed barn that had been transformed into a party palace.Couture says the event was more like a traditional hoedown.We owe, in large part, Johanne Coiteux and the Mason family who are the driving forces behind this great event,\u201d Couture said.\u201cThe torrential downpours, thunder, lightning and winds didn\u2019t dampen the festive mood of the crowd.We were also through the gates giving us hope this fair wouldn\u2019t be a complete washout.\u201d Sunday, now officially Children\u2019s Day instead of Friday, brought over 3,000 youngsters and parents through the gates.\u201cWe even ran out of bracelets,\u201d Gage said, still surprised at the swarms of youngsters hurrying to sign up for the first ever pedal-tractor pull for 3- to 9- year-olds.Kids were able to sign up for one of four categories in the pedal-trac- tor event, and were treated to a free sausage, chips, an apple, and ice cream in the meantime.\u201cAll donated,\u201d the fair manager added.Although final tallies were not complete by early evening Sunday, estimates very privileged to be able to introduce our honorary co-presidents, Louise Bis- sonette and Bishop\u2019s student and TBL resident, Miranda Coté who spoke.People of all ages danced all night right up to 11:45 p.m.to fabulous music, and many door prizes were won.\u201d Though the official tally has yet to be disclosed because the club\u2019s accountant always likes to make sure that everything is included and justified, Coiteux thinks it is possible that they might not have reached as much as last year when they raised about $5,000 after expenses.Proceeds are always divided between |\" supporting activities and services for §.youth with a larger portion committed to the annual Walk for Women\u2019s Can- k | cers in October.Always aiming for it to be an event for all generations to enjoy and to be able to afford to attend, Coiteux marvels at what she feels is the best part about it.\u201cIt is the community spirit that is the most beautiful thing that happens.Everybody works together, nobody argues or fights.The work to make it hap- PHOTOS BY CLAUDIA VILLEMAIRE A larger than ever farm equipment display, old and new, was on display this year.Restored farm tractors are always popular as seniors

loads of gravel to soak up the water,\u201d Gage said, describing water accumulation in low spots.\u201cBut all of us here can only say thank-you to the teams that worked through the bad weather and especially the public who supported us so well in spite of Mother Nature\u2019s best efforts to rain us out.\u201d The fair was also host to just under 150 head of Holsteins, two beef type herds
