As a member of the
Regional Firefighters
Interpretation Centre,
Fall River, Jim Lackie
loves to drive the
1958 American
LaFrance pumper.
Although he moved
from Wellington, NS
to St John, New
Brunswick, earlier in
the year he vowed to
be in the Beaver Bank
Parade of Lights with
his favourite pumper.
Jim traveled from St.
John, NB to drive his
favourite fire truck,
No. 17, in the Beaver
Bank Parade of
Lights. Jim was
accompanied by
Dave, Lewanne and
Kim and special
parade presenters
Madison and
Valkylerie who got to
ride in the hose bed.
The Interpretation
Center, a non-profit
association has a
wonderful collection of
firefighting
memorabilia and
equipment and the
building at 3214
Highway #2, Fall
River, Nova Scotia is
open to the public for
all to enjoy, learn and
remember. The facility
recently experienced
some roofing problems
and some water damage
but will re-open in the
spring.

Because You Gave, We Can Give
This letter was recently sent to
my attention and I thought it
would be nice to share with the
community.
“Thank you to those who have
contributed in any way to the
needs of the people who are
supported by the Gateway Food
Bank.
Together with Feed Nova Scotia,
we are supplying approximately
60 households with turkeys and
food at this Christmastime. The
food hampers include extras that
help make this season a pleasant
time for families and individuals!
We have an “angel” tree for
people to buy a small gift for
children of those families, and we
deliver the hampers to them.
The working poor, senior
citizens, people on disability,
pensioners, single parents,
people who have lost their jobs
suddenly, and people with
serious illnesses are but a few
situations where we are able to
help! And, it’s all because others
have a heart to see needs met in
our community that we can keep
going.
We really appreciate those
who donate and because of you
we can do so much more than
we otherwise could. For those of
us who volunteer we get great
satisfaction from seeing joy
brought to others.
Special thanks go to: people and
organizations and businesses
who provide groceries; several
churches in our community who
collect and bring food; a school
who collected food and gave;
church attendees who give
money on a regular basis and
when special needs arise;
individuals who drop off
donations of money or food
(including turkeys); people who
help during the month of
December; those who wrap the
hamper boxes; those who have
filled the hampers and those who
have delivered them; and a great
team of regular volunteers who
faithfully show up every week to
prepare orders for the clients. We
also appreciate those who come
to give back when they don’t
need help from the food bank any
longer!!!
Our Pancake Breakfast fundraiser
brought in more than $1500.
Thanks for participating!
Thank you to the Beaver Bank
Kinsac Bulletin that featured us in
the last issue, making us known
in the community!
Again many thanks to anyone
who has helped in any way big or
small all helps in the big picture.
We could not do this without your
help!”

Lions Club Raise the roof Campaign – Building for a better Tomorrow – Today
The Beaver Bank – Kinsac
Lions Club is about to undertake
a challenging and most
worthwhile project - expansion of
the present building located at 40
Sandy Lake Road. This
expansion will see an addition
added to the front portion of the
Club; the dimensions of which are
24 x 20. It will take many hands
and donations, whether in the
form of monetary or materials, not
to mention the time and hard work
to make this project a
success. We have the can do
attitude and at the same time are
excited to get things started.
As a non-profit organization, our
funds are extremely limited as the
monies that are raised throughout
the year, go back into the
community to support the
community. Over the years, we
have been known as the small
Club with big hearts.
Beaver Bank – Kinsac Lions Club
is seeking your help. The plans
are drawn up and we are not far
from starting this project. With this
in mind, we will be seeking
donations: cash, materials,
services, time, etc. This
undertaking will not succeed
without the kind generosity of
many, many people and
businesses. Our “Raise the roof
Campaign” has gotten off to an
exciting start at our monthly
General Meeting held on 20
October 2015. The Club was
presented with a cheque for
$20,000.00. What a fantastic way
to start, but a long way to the
finish line.
addition in recognition of their
support. No donation, whether in
the form of monetary, materials or
services, is too small.
We hope you can participate with
us in the exciting
campaign. Additionally, all
donors will be invited to attend the
grand opening once expansion is
complete.
To donate, please contact Lion
Bob Trowsdale 902 441-6669 or
Lion Bev Hubley 902 865-9415.
Thanking you in advance for your
participation.
All persons or businesses
donating to the “Raise the roof
Campaign” will have their names
engraved on a plaque which will
be displayed on a wall of the new

Legislation to Ensure Financial
Sustainability
Last month, the Public Service
Sustainability Act was introduced.
This legislation provides public
sector employees with fair,
affordable wage packages. Nova
Scotia and Nova Scotians cannot
afford a more costly settlement than
that contained in the legislation –
period.
The legislation also ensures newer
or lower paid civil servants receive
larger pay increases, some will see
increases of as much as five per
cent per year. This piece of
legislation also ensures that
collective bargaining can continue:
everything is negotiable except the
overall wage packages – we hope
our partners will have these
discussions at the table with us.
Nova Scotia’s fiscal plan and our
labour settlements are about
preparing Nova Scotia for long-term
progress. All Nova Scotians have to
play their part as we position the
province for a stronger future. We
have to continue to make tough
choices so we can invest in quality
health care, deliver first-rate
education, and build essential new
infrastructure in the future.

Remembrance Day Ceremony held in Beaver Bank Kinsac
On November 11th, 2015, on the
anniversary of the eleventh hour
of the eleventh day of the eleventh
month of the Great War, Beaver
Bank Kinsac joined the nation in
remembrance of our Veterans.
The ceremony began with the
march to the Cenotaph and words
of welcome by Master of
Ceremonies, Lisa Blackburn.
The prayer was led by Reverend
Mike Zottarelli and Chief Petty
Officer Second Class Ron Rideout
recited “In Flanders Fields”.
Many wreaths were then laid
beginning with Joanne Pasha who
laid a wreath on behalf of Walter
Lively, one of the founders of our
Cenotaph.
The following officials were on
hand to lay wreaths: representing
the Government of Canada,
Daniel Campagna, representing
the Government of Nova Scotia,
Bill Horne and Stephen Gough.
Personal wreaths were then laid
by Judy Barkhouse, Karen
Bungay, Christine and Darlene
Thomas, Jim & Marlene Cullen,
Grayson Peters and Constable
Saxon Peters, Joanne Pasha,
Fred Gallop, Lathum DeWolf, Kelly
Potter and Sandra Tanner,
Nathalie Bowden, Kathlene
Shunamon, Jenny Barlow, Jessica
Davison, and Dianna Doherty.
Wreaths laid by community groups
and organizations included: the
Beaver Bank Community Policing
Volunteer Association, 4th
Sackville Scouting, 2nd Beaver
Bank A Colony Beaver Scouts, 2nd
Beaver Bank Scouting Group, 2nd
Beaver Bank Cubs, 8th Sackville

Following the wreath laying
ceremony there was a reading of
“Why Wear a Poppy?”. The
playing of the last post followed
with the moment of silence.
Thank you to all those who
participated and helped prepare
this year’s ceremony.

Update from Station 48 – Happy New Year!
Happy New Year from the
members of the Beaver Bank –
Kinsac Volunteer Fire
Department, proudly serving our
community for over 50 years. On
behalf of the members, I would
like to thank the community for
your support in 2015 and we wish
everyone a safe and prosperous
2016.
Your fire department continues to
be busy training and responding
to calls within our community.
Since the last update, we have
responded to 19 calls; 11 medical
assists, 3 motor vehicle accidents,
2 alarms activated, 1 carbon
monoxide alarm, and 2 structure
fires. This brings our total to 119
responses for assistance. By the
time the Bulletin gets published
we should be above our normal
average of 120 responses per
year.
With winter finally here, here are a
few safety tips from your friendly
neighborhood firefighters that will
hopefully help prevent a call for us
to visit your home.
Driving Habits – Our road
conditions can change quickly
with the winter weather. Black ice,
snow covered roads, and longer
hours of darkness during our
regular commute are a real
concern. Some suggestions are
the use of appropriate winter tires,
a roadside emergency kit, a
blanket, and a good snowbrush to
keep your windshield and
windows clear of that dirty ice and
snow. The main tip is to drive for
the conditions showing, slow and
steady will always get you safely
home. If you don’t have to be on
the roads, then relax at home.
Ice Safety – With the temperature
dropping, the ponds will start to
freeze over and turn to ice
covered playgrounds for
everyone. Before you venture out
on the ice, have a responsible
person check the thickness of the
ice. Some of our ponds in the
area (Barrett Lake & Tucker Lake)
have the ice thickness measured
by HRM. You can check out the
HRM website for these Ice
Thickness Reports and safety
notes about activities on frozen
ponds and lakes. As a general
guide – a person skating alone on
ice requires 15 cm of ice
thickness. For a skating party or
group – 20 cm. For a snowmobile
or ATV – 25 cm of ice thickness is
recommended.
Adopt A Hydrant – For our
residents who have a fire hydrant
near their property, the fire
department would like you to
“adopt” the hydrant this winter. If
you have the time and
opportunity, why not keep it clear
of ice and snow. This not only
helps the fire department in
protecting your home in the event
we are called there, but the
homes of your fellow neighbors.
January and February will
continue to be busy months for
the volunteers of your fire
department. Besides the regular
training and call outs for
emergencies, the Fire Department
will be taking some extra refresher
training to keep our members up
to date and current in our skills.
On behalf of the members of the
Fire Department, from our families
to yours, we would like to wish
everyone in the community a
Happy New Year and a safe
2016.
Until next time – stay and play
safe.
