A piece of Norfolk’s history has returned back home.
In December, Norfolk County Sports Hall of Recognition Chair Heather King received an unexpected package from Tennessee.
In it was a beautiful silver trophy from the family of Nelson Ross Gilbert.
An article that came with the item explains that prize was “presented by the inhabitants of Simcoe to the Champion Baseball Club. Norfolk. Dominion Day 1871”.
Two references to the trophy were found in the then-Norfolk Reformer, the first on June 15, 1871, previewing a celebration of Dominion Day on July 1st of that year.
That year, a group representing Lynedoch comprised of Nelson Robert Gilbert, W.A. McLim, John Murray, L. Olmstead, A. Armstrong, John Beal, John Shepherd, Wm Dawson, and F. Crysler emerged victorious in a field that included Simcoe, Vittoria, and Port Dover.

On the first Friday of Lent dozens of local churches will gather together in prayer for victims and survivors of abuse, for their families and their communities.
In late 2016, Pope Francis wrote to bishops’ conferences around the world asking they choose an appropriate moment during the liturgical year to observe an annual national Day of Prayer for Victims and Survivors of Abuse with the community of faithful.
Over the past four years many Bishops Conferences – and individual diocese – have taken steps to enact the proposal, with Cathedrals and parishes in Ireland choosing Friday 19 February to light
Candles of Atonement to mark the Day of Prayer as has the Church in Scotland and in Poland who will also hold special liturgies.

The Belfast Climate Crisis Committee held a forum Jan. 25 to gauge public interest in restoring the Little River, which included discussion about the dams.
Led by Committee Chairman Jon Beal, discussion contemplated the best way to restore the river. Conversation centered on the upper and lower dams at the beginning of the river, which have been neglected and are now thought to be in danger of failure. The options discussed included removing or rebuilding the dams.
