WOW what a crowd that showed up at the Shubenacadie Wild Life Park this morning to see if Shubenacadie Sam would see his shadow or not.&nbsp; Well it may have been -11 but the crowds were huge to come and Witness Sam's prediction.&nbsp; Early estimates had over a 1,000 people in attendance.&nbsp; There were treats, hot chocolate, face painting and of course the star of the show.&nbsp; A song made up for Sam to the tune of take me out to the ball game was sung and then - out came SAM... the sun was shining and Sam saw his shadow predicting 6 morte weeks of winter.
</p>
<p>
With Groundhog Day being on a Saturday this year the Village of Shubenacadie got on board and the Legion put on a great Breakfast and service a couple of hundred happy diners looking to get into the warmth.&nbsp; They always do a great job.&nbsp; Also the Tin Shop Museum was open to welcome guses and share a little of our Village history with them.
</p>
<p>
It was a GREAT Day... Thanks to all that helped.

You really couldn't miss it the new bright orange roof on the Community Hall.&nbsp; We were forntunate to get support from the Province to be able to do a number of upgrades to the Hall.&nbsp; Neil Barr has been overseeing the project and putting a lot of time and effort in it.&nbsp; The Haven Homes team has been doing a good job getting the roof on in rather tough weather.
</p>
<p>
It is great to have the Hall in good condition and open to the public to be able to rent it for special occations.&nbsp;

         <p>
Our own <strong>Cody Anthony</strong>&nbsp;was chosen as one of the two Team Captains for <strong>Team Canada</strong>.&nbsp; 
</p>
<p>
In their second playoff game on <strong>Saturday Team Canada was able to defeat the US Team</strong>.&nbsp; They had had a lengthy rain delay so right after that game they had to play again - this time it was Australlia and they lost a tough battle 3 - 2.&nbsp; The winner of that game was guaranteed at least a bronze medal.&nbsp; So<strong> our Canadian boys ended up with a 4th place finish</strong> in the World Championships.&nbsp; Cody's mom Terry said <strong>"This Team made Canada very proud</strong> this week and I am very proud that my family could be part of it".&nbsp; "I also want to say how proud we are of Cody".
</p>
<p>
We too would like to say <strong>how proud Shubie is of Cody Anthony</strong> and the <strong>whole Team Canada</strong>.&nbsp; What a great showing in this prestigious event in Argentina.

         <p>
Today is <span style="color: #ed1f11">Remberance Day </span>- the special day each year we remember those that have fought for the freedoms we enjoy.&nbsp; It is the day where we stop to honour our fallen soldiers and our troops in service.&nbsp; Shubenacadie will gather at the Cenotaph for a service.&nbsp; It is a warming ceromony as an honour guard marches through the Village, the crowd gathers to sing, pray, hear the traditional "In Flanders Field".&nbsp; The two minutes of silence is special as our thoughts and prayers go to those in the past and present.&nbsp; The laying of wreaths - it is great to see so many families, groups and businesses step up to be part of this.
</p>
<p>
Then at the&nbsp;end everyone in the crowd brings their poppy up and pin them on a wreath... a see of red poppies soon appears.
</p>
<p>
Thank you to all who help to put on this special event.&nbsp;<img alt="honouring_our_troops" height="216" src="/images/uploads/honouring_our_troops.jpg" title="honouring_our_troops" width="175" />

Well the weather held up and the turn out was quite good.&nbsp; The results are in and it was close but former <strong><em>Councillor Albert Flemming</em></strong> returns to represent Shubenacadie.&nbsp; He replaces Pam MacInnis who did a great job for the Village for the past four years.
</p>
<p>
We look forward to the next four years and encourage Councillor elect Flemming to lead our community through a timeline of growth over the next four years.
</p>
<p>
<strong><em>Here are the results:</em></strong>

Over the past number of years the area between the Ball Fields and the River has been getting wetter and wetter.&nbsp; When the river floods over the banks on a high tide or we get large amounts of rain it hasn't been able to drain out to the river. It has been eroding the shore line and creating a couple of swamp areas.&nbsp; There are several sink holes that had become dangerous.
</p>
<p>
In discussion with inovator owner of Halifax C&amp;D Dan Chassie we shared our problem and concern.&nbsp; He shared that he had a solution using his TDA - Tire Derivitive Aggregate - that will allow water to flow through it but holds up the grass and topping.&nbsp; Hank Kolstee a retired Tidal Drainage expert with the Province designed what was needed and how to do it.&nbsp; Dan Chassie offered to do the whole project as a contribution to the Village of Shubie.&nbsp; The Project is valued at over $20,000 for all the work that is being done.
</p>
<p>
They have dug a trench 6' deep - 12' wide from just&nbsp;by the Lift Station all around to the trial to the&nbsp;Floating Dock.&nbsp; The trench was gilled with the TDA product - next it is covered with filter cloth - then soil put back&nbsp;over the TDA - leaving a strip 4' wide that will be covered&nbsp;with 1" clear stone.&nbsp; The site will then be shaped to take any&nbsp;flow from the ball fields and or the river to this trench.
</p>
<p>
The&nbsp;whole trench then drains to a pipe at the end that will connect with an Abeteau - a flap that will open to let water out when the tide is out - close to protect tidal water coming up the pipe when the&nbsp;Tide is in.
</p>
<p>
This will be a showcase of this newer technology and will make a huge difference to the park.&nbsp; We hope to be able to have picnic tables by the river next summer.
</p>
<p>
&nbsp;The project is expectied to be finished up next week if the weather holds up.
</p>
<p>
Mr. Chassie is a partner in Scotia Plastics that donated the piping, owns Halifax C&amp;D that has donated the TDA product, the&nbsp;trucking, the construction equipment, the abeteau.&nbsp; Earlier this spring one of his other companies donated new metal Siding and Roofing for the Ball Field building - that project is planned to be completed this fall or in the spring.
</p>
<p>
We would like to offer a&nbsp;VERY SPECIAL&nbsp;THANK YOU to Dan Chassie and his team.&nbsp;

You have likely heard and seen the activity around the new Sidewalks on Main Street in Shubenacadie.&nbsp; They are planned to run from Yummies Deli to Havenwood Dr.&nbsp; When the tie a red ribbon around the old tree happened a couple of weeks ago we were all shocked to think that we might lose all these wonderful old trees.&nbsp; Councillor Pam went to work to gain a better understanding of what needed to happen and how the Sidewalks would impact the trees.&nbsp; A lot by lot review was complete, recommendations were found&nbsp;and presented to East Hants Staff to assist them in desiging the sidewalk package to be safe but still keep most of our beautiful trees.&nbsp; It was great to receive a report back end of last week indicating that the vast majority of the trees are expected to be saved.&nbsp; We must say Staff have really been working for&nbsp;the community on this one.&nbsp; Thanks to Connie Nolan and her team.&nbsp; Pam did another walk on the weekend to compare the notes from our presentation and the notes received back.&nbsp; She had a the opportunity to chat with quite a few people as well.&nbsp; Most were very excited that we can have both.... Sidewalks &amp; Trees...
</p>
<p>
<strong><em>The Good News Is</em></strong>... we can have the enjoyment and safety of our sidewalks as well as the beauty of our trees.
</p>
<p>
We are hoping construction will be done this fall.&nbsp;If it is anything like Elmsdale people will come out and enjoy this new walking area - connect to the trails as well.<img alt="streetscape_cover_640" height="640" src="/images/uploads/streetscape_cover_640.jpg" style="width: 171px; height: 290px" title="streetscape_cover_640" width="480" />
