We will also be highlighting the diversity and inclusion within individual clubs. A form with all the requirements will be available on the district website in the coming days.

A Word From Our District Governor Noel CM Eustace and Karen Eustace Distric Governor 2019-2020 Rotary Connects The World Rotary International District 7810 New Brunswick, Canada & Eastern Maine, USA Hi Everyone. This is District Governor Noel, wishing to reach out to everyone as we get close to the end of this Rotary year. What a year it has been, eh? First off, on behalf of the District, my wife Karen and I, a huge THANK YOU to each and everyone of you for all of your work that you and your clubs have done in your communities and for your hospitality when we came to visit. So much has happened. Here are some of the the highlights. There is a video message, accompanied by the text version, posted on the District website. www.ridist7810.org District membership is up over 30 members. The largest increase in all Zone 28! We chartered a new Rotary Club, the Rotary Club of the Atlantic International Passport - Club Rotary de l’Atlantique International Passeport with Charter President Richard Lemay. District 7810 is a Charter Member of Rotaract Canada. Effective on July 1st, 2022 Rotary International will form a new District, District 7815 that will include all of Atlantic Canada and St. Pierre Miquelon, France. The 10 Rotary clubs within the State of Maine, will become a part of District 7790. This means we have two years to transition and to get to know each other better. Part of this process is we have established two separate organizing committees, one for the transition for the 10 clubs to District 7790 and one for the formation of District 7815. We have solid representation on both committees. For District 7790, we have Floyd Rockholt and Marc Ouellette. For District 7815, we have soon to be Governor Elect Darren Hansen, Governor Nominee Harvey Bass and Past District Governor Silvana Bosca. As of our last Board meeting just last week, the operating budget tentatively shows a significant surplus since no in person training and travel costs have been incurred as originally budgeted. Once the fiscal period is complete and the final surplus is known, the board has approved a motion and District will be reaching out with three options: Issue a credit to members in the form of a credit for membership dues, Providing a cumulative credit, based on membership, to the club to spend as you see fit or Provide an inter District matching grant program to support clubs who support Covid 19 specific projects within your own communities (this is to build on the Rotary International Global Grant Program we hope to receive in the next Rotary year). Governor Elect John has committed to personally following up with each club President early in the new Rotary year to get each of your clubs’ feedback. Last but certainly not least, we all know the Rotary International Cenvention in Honolulu was cancelled. The good news is there is going to be a virtual convention, June 20 – 26, 2020. www.riconvention.org/en The positive in all of this… we all have an opportunity to be a part of such a first, the first virtual convention, complete with keynote speakers and break out sessions. To be a part of an RI convention... all without leaving your home or office. Still lots to see and learn. Please consider registering and participating, it is quite a program. Overall, it has been an amazing year. Utterly amazing. Together as Rotarians, as clubs and as a District, we have accomplished so much. Karen and I are truly blessed to have met so many passionate Rotarians. We are in awe of all the good things each of you and your clubs are doing. Going forward please know we are here to support you in anyway we can. On a personal note, I wish to say thank you to the Governor line and everyone in the District leadership team for all their passion, drive, leadership and support through out the year. We look forward to supporting the District, the Governor line and the District leadership team during the next Rotary year and hope each of you will continue to do the same. Thank you all. Dare to be the difference. And remember… Rotary connects the world. Be well. Be safe. Membership Minute Many Rotarians lately have asked: “What can we do for membership attraction, engagement, retention and learning under these unique circumstances?” “Where is the best place to start? There is so much information available sometimes I feel overwhelmed.” A great place to start is with “My Rotary” under the "Learning & Nigel Bayliss Reference” heading. Membership Chair District 7810 It has many options of interest to membership. Under the Access Your Club option you will find two of particular value: Rotary Club Health Check - Identify your club's problem areas and make changes to help it stay relevant for members and the community. Is Your Club Healthy? — Take this Learning Center course to help your club improve its member experience, service and social events, public image, and club operations. We service our cars regularly, dentist and doctor appointments, routine service on our motorized lawn equipment so why not a regular routine check on our own club. This is something that can be done fail easily during this time of restricted isolation and will be a great way to bench mark your club and identify areas of concern for action. The Rotary Club of Fredericton Sunrise launches a unique online fundraising initiative to raise money for Polio, Malaria and Water Projects The Rotary Club of Fredericton Sunrise President Sarah Kilfoil and Treasurer and 50/50 Committee Chairperson Julie Frenette are thrilled to announce the launch of a weekly Progressive 50/50 draw. What makes this initiative so unique is the simplicity and convenience of playing online on a safe and secure platform from virtually anywhere in the world 24/7--(regrettably, US President Sarah Kilfoil Treasurer & 50/50 Chairperson residents cannot play while in the US). Julie Frenette The signup process is quick and simple, and you can buy tickets for draws up to a year in advance on a single transaction. Jackpot winners receive 50% of the posted jackpot and the net proceeds are directed to local, regional and international projects. “Our Club has entered into an agreement with TLF Global Limited to run the licensed, online 50/50, on the club’s behalf. This unique online 50/50 lottery will run 52 weeks/year and raise significant funds for our local community and will also support 3 critical international initiatives through The Rotary Foundation (TRF) and Rotarian Malaria Partners.” says President Kilfoil. Making an impact both locally and gobally, The Rotary Club of Fredericton Sunrise will retain a portion of the net proceeds for local initiatives but one third of the net proceeds from all draws will be contributed to each of the following 3 programs: 1) Polio Eradication (matched by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation) 2) Malaria Eradication (matched by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation via Rotarian Malaria Partners) 3) WASRAG (Water and Sanitation Rotarian Action Group). You can help support local and international initiatives all at once while, at the same time, having some fun and getting a chance to win some extra money.If you have enough money, you can always donate it back to TRF or directly to The Rotary Club of Fredericton Sunrise …and rest assured it will be wisely distributed in our community. Our 3 main local beneficiaries are: 1) Local Area Food Banks 2) Partners for Youth 3) Camp Rotary Give it a Whirl! To play, simply go to Rotary.goplay5050.com.

  • Prime Birding Locations in the Grand Manan Area
    Grand Manan Tourism Association and Chamber of Commerce www.GrandMananNB.com Prime Birding Locations in the Grand Manan Area. Written by Brian Dalzell. Over the years, certain sites on and around Grand Manan Island have proven to be consistently good spots to look for birds. If you have only a short time here, it is suggested you concentrate your efforts on sites 2, 3, 6, 10, 16, 18 and 23. For more complete directions to most of these areas, it is highly recommended that a copy of the latest edition of the Grand Manan Heritage Trails and Footpaths be purchased. A numbered map has been provided below. 1. Net Point – Pettes Cove: Just a short walk from the ferry terminal, this is a good place to spend an hour while waiting for the ferry to arrive, especially in the fall when late migrants can be found in sunny spots around houses. Residents have numerous bird feeders along the way, many visible from the road. A trail takes you along the shore from Pettes Cove to the Irving Oil depot and back. You can also walk to the Swallowtail Light (3) and back if you have an hour to spare. 2. Whale Cove and Pond: This cove in North Head is a favoured spot in early winter for Red- necked Grebes; Northern Shrikes and Rough-legged Hawks are often seen perched along the road. The best way to bird the area is to leave your car at the Anglican Church and walk along the narrow lane to the cove. You can cross the rocky barrier beach with the pond on one side, ocean on the other and walk back along the road if you wish or retrace your steps.

  • Lighthouses and Fog Alarm Stations
    Grand Manan Tourism and Chamber of Commerce. GrandMananNB.Com LIGHTHOUSES AND FOG ALARM STATIONS: It was quickly realized that lighthouses and fog stations were essential to protect shipping in the Bay of Fundy because of the treacherous shoals, tidal action and thick fog. As a result, southwestern New Brunswick has one of the largest number of lighthouses in the world. The Saint John Board of Trade built the first lighthouse at Gannet Rock in 1831. In addition to the lights below, several others can be seen from the ferry or from vantage points on Grand Manan or White Head islands. As you leave the ferry terminal at Blacks Harbour, Pea Point (1878, rebuilt 1965) is visible on the left. Pea Point is now also part of the Connor’s Bros. Nature Preserve, part of a series of nature preserves established by the New Brunswick Nature Trust. About half way through the ferry ride you may also view Southwest Wolf Light (1871, rebuilt 1982) to the east and East Quoddy Light (1829) on Campobello Island to the west. Once on Grand Manan from any western vantage points such as Dark Harbour or Long Eddy Point you may also view West Quoddy Light (1808) in Lubec, Maine, the second oldest lighthouse in the western Bay of Fundy - the light house at Partridge Island in Saint John harbour is the oldest, built in 1791, Bliss Island Light (1871, rebuilt in 1965) and Green Point Light (1903, now an inter-pretation centre) both near Deer Island, Drew’s Head Light, Beaver Harbour (1875) and Point LePreau Light (1831, rebuilt in 1959).

  • Grand Manan Trails 2004
    GRAND MANAN TRAILS ANNUAL NEWSLETTER John Belyea Smoke Stands at Seal Cove Issue #12 October, 2004 1 THE TRAILS 2004 After a very windy winter and a wet spring, we found that there was a lot of cleanup to do on the trails this year. Thanks to the early assistance of Jessie James and Anne Mitchell, we were able to clear the worst of the obstacles. Susan Green and Kim Mann were also of help early in the year, as they walked the trails, chainsaw in hand, and cleared prob- lems at the southern end of the island. Many thanks also to Philippe and Katrine Keity, their daughter Maya, Elise Bowers, and their dog, Caper for some great trail maintenance in late August. Assistance like this is greatly appreciated. Those of you who hiked to Money Cove would have been surprised and probably confused by the large pond where there used to be a small stream to cross. This is a result of busy beavers. In late August, we worked on a detour downstream from the dam, using part of the blue trail and the road going down to the cove itself. We’ll check in the spring to work out the best route for next season. One of the major problems we have had is having signs and markers stay in place. More than any other year in the past, we have found, particularly on the back of the island, that our signs and markers have been changed or removed. This does not make the trails in- accessible, but does cause some confusion to hikers new to the trails.

Cadieux, 2021 April 12, 2021 Members of the Examining Committee: Dr. Catherine Conrad-Suso (Supervisor) Department of Geography and Environmental Studies Saint Mary’s University Dr. Jason Grek-Martin Department of Geography and Environmental Studies Saint Mary’s University This thesis is dedicated to my mom Holly, my late dad Denis, and my brother Kyle, for their never-ending support and love throughout my academic career. ABSTRACT GRAND MANAN ISLAND PERCEPTIONS OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEMS AND CHANGE By Danielle M. Cadieux This thesis investigates the island of Grand Manan, New Brunswick. The study focuses on perceptions which residents of Grand Manan have of their natural environment, whether they see change as necessary, and what their feelings are towards potential change. The study includes discussion about methods for creating change in ways that residents support. A literature review of methods for effective environmental policy implementation was conducted. Findings discuss methods of implementing environment related rules, and what motivates personal environmentally friendly actions. Factors which influence public support for environment related rules and/or self-driven actions include: trust, education, environmental knowledge, ignorance, apathy, empathy, efficacy, uncertainty and powerlessness. These factors relate to one’s personal perception and experience, and were identified in participants responses throughout the study. Information from residents was collected using one on one interviews based on a set of 11 uniform questions, plus additional discussion if required.
