SUMMARY:Nautical Rope Bowl Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Paradise Historical Society is hosting a Nautical Rope Bowl workshop. \nNautical rope knots have been used for centuries by mariners to secure sails and rigging on ships and boats. Variations or repetitions of certain knots can create a variety of functional and decorative items\, such as mats that protect decks from the rigging\, to surround railings or to stand on for cushioning. \nPresenter\, Karen Morley\, resides in Cottage Cove where she makes items from “reclaimed” lobster rope and sells them at the Clarence Market on Sundays. \nKaren invites you to join her to learn this art of decorative nautical knot making. \nParticipants will learn how to first create a nautical thump mat which will then be turned into a bowl. This useful bowl\, approximately 10 inches in diameter\, can hold fruits\, bread or any items you wish. \nA choice of 2 colours as below of reclaimed rope from a lobster fishing boat will be provided. \nWritten instructions will be provided. \nDate & Time: Saturday\, September 14\, 2024\, from 10:00 am – 2:00 pm (or until your bowl is finished) \nLocation: Paradise Heritage Centre at 10307 Highway #1 in Paradise. \nCost: $50.00 which includes all the materials \nInstructor: Karen Morley \nPlease bring a lunch. \nUPDATE AUGUST 27TH: All spots are booked\, but please contact us if you’d like to be added to the waiting list. \nTo request a spot on the waiting list\, please send an email to Barbara or send her a direct/private message on the Paradise Historical Society Facebook page. \nPlease click HERE to send Barbara an email.

Thank you to all who registered. We look forward to seeing you!\nOur Presenters\n\n\n\n\n	KEYNOTE SPEAKER: Brenda J. Thompson\n\nBrenda brings unique gifts to the task of finding our Hidden Histories. She has a Master’s degree in Sociology from Acadia University\, life experience as a ‘welfare mother’ and low-wage earner\, a passion for local history AND a natural talent for cogent and compelling writing.\n\nShe is well-equipped to help us clear the mists of nostalgia from the realities of our ancestors’ world.\n\nSometimes her writing is touching and almost light-hearted\, as in her monologue play based on the memoirs of Lester Beeler of West Dalhousie (side note: this was performed to the delight of all in the Paradise Community Hall once).\n\nSometimes it is enlightening\, as in Finding Fortune: Documenting and Imagining the Life of Rose Fortune.\n\nIt can be searing\, as in Vol 2 of A Wholesome Horror\, the story of Poor Houses in Nova Scotia.\n\nAnd it can be unflinching\, as in her newest work\, Enslavers of the Maritimes.\n\nIn 2019\, Brenda established Moose House Publications to provide an outlet for writers in\, and of\, rural Nova Scotia. A browse through the Moose House website shows how many of us love to write and have much to offer. This company is a huge promoter of Nova Scotian history\, arts and culture.\n\nBrenda lives in Perotte Settlement\, near Annapolis Royal.\n\n\n	\n\n \n \n\nGUEST SPEAKER: Laura Churchill Duke\n\nLaura is an Annapolis Valley journalist and the award-winning author of Two Crows Sorrow and Rooted in Deception. These true crime novels take us to an Annapolis Valley we have forgotten or never knew- rural life in the valley at the turn of the last century. \n\nShe is not only a writer; she is a communication and public relations specialist who uses her creative and organizational skills to benefit others. It is she who organizes the signature event for Campaign for Kids each year- you know it as Burger Wars! \n\nAnd she is a team member of the successful local business\, Your Last Resort\, helping people to clear the clutter when they need to and make positive changes in their lives. \n\nLaura lives in Kentville with her husband\, David\, and her two sons\, Daniel and Thomas\, and several rescue animals.\n\nLaura's Presentation: Footsteps in the Snow\n\nOn an early January morning in 1896\, 15-year-old Annie Kempton is found murdered in her own home in Bear River\, Nova Scotia. Within the next few hours\, Peter Wheeler\, a come-from-away of dubious origin\, is blamed for the murder and subsequently arrested. The community right away focuses all their attention on this outsider.\n \nLaura will talk about the specific complications of jurisdiction and legal procedures in that time and place- e.g. Bear River lies in two counties - Annapolis and Digby- but also about the social fabric which was the setting for the events.\n\nWe will be given access to her methods and thought processes as she researches and writes. Reviews of her books speak of them as “chair-gripping” and “visceral”. We may learn from Laura how it is that we can both recover a story that matters\, one lost in time\, and feel that story as if we were there. \n\nFootprints in the Snow is slated to be published in early fall 2024 with Moose House Publications.\n\n\n\n	GUEST SPEAKER: Warden Alex Morrison\n\nAlex Morrison is currently the Warden of Annapolis County and has been a member of County Council for twelve years. \n\nHe served over 40 years as a career Canadian Army officer\, including with Canada’s North American Treaty Organization forces in Germany during the Cold War\, Headquarters of the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus\, and six years as a member of the diplomatic staff of the Permanent Mission to the United Nations in New York. He has taught at Canadian and American universities and at Japanese security institutions.\n \nAlex is the Founding President of the Pearson Peacekeeping Centre. Also\, he is the author\, co-author\, editor\, co-editor of over 30 books on various aspects of Canadian military history\, and on international security affairs. Two titles are The Voice of Defence: the History of the Conference of Defence Associations\, and\, with Ted Slaney\, The Breed of Manly Men: the History of the Cape Breton Highlanders.\n\nWarden Morrison's Presentation: The Forgotten Scots of Nova Scotia: Time for a Renaissance\n\nAlex Morrison contends that the contributions of Sir William Alexander to the development of Nova Scotia have been unappreciated and that the time has come recognize them. \n\nUntil relatively recently\, the location of the Scottish fort\, “Charles Fort”\, had not been firmly established. After much historical and anthropological “detective” work\, the site is now well established and suitably marked.  Learn more about why this matters\, and how this person and this time have been so important to our province. . \n\n\n\n\n	\n\n \n \n\nGUEST SPEAKER: Heather LeBlanc\n\nHeather LeBlanc is the principal of HAL Consulting Incorporated\, established in 1997. Her interest in people and their communities has translated into ideas and action in rural economic development\, community planning\, education\, culture and heritage. \n\nShe has served as Executive Director of several boards and committees of non-profit organizations. She was instrumental in the creation and development of Mapannapolis\, and has been project manager since its inception in 2012. \n\nThis community legacy project\, designed by the community itself\, reflects her deep interest in the County’s cultural and heritage importance to the Province and Canada. \n\nMapannapolis\n\nIn 2011 a small group of seniors started talking about mapping Annapolis County assets. The consensus: the maps would have to be created from scratch. \n\nTraditional Annapolis County maps didn’t show what we wanted them to show. We wanted maps of our distinctive homes; we wanted to see the churches where we worshiped our whole lives\, and where our people were buried. A map of Annapolis County should show how the tides were tamed\, and the saltwater marshes recovered\, and planted in grain. \n\nWhat were the stories of the early bridges and railway lines that tied our County together?\n\nWhere were the maps of the very earliest European settlements here\, and the names of the Scots and French and English who arrived here first? \n\nAnd before that\, the Mi’kmaw: where were their travel-ways and settlements?\n\nAnnapolis County Seniors and students from the Centre for Geographic Sciences (COGS) teamed up\, students teaching seniors\, and today mapannapolis.ca hosts hand-made\, home-made maps using state-of-art digital map-making tools. Using their mobile app the maps offer self-guided tours which include thousands of heritage homes and structures; churches and their graveyards complete with inventories of the buried; community walks; existing and long-gone wharves; the thought-lost Acadian grave sites and remains of the St. Jean-Baptiste Parish Church discovered in 2018 at Fort Anne National Historic Site.\n\nMapannapolis does not just map; it uncovers the hidden layers of our history.  From the Acadian Deportation from Annapolis Royal to the first Black Loyalist settlements to the ever-evolving stories of our home communities\, Mapannapolis maps our stories\, helping us discover ourselves.\n\nMapannapolis has been  recognized by the Governor General of Canada for Excellence in Community History Programming.\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n\n\n \nRegister and Purchase Your Ticket\nThe conference is full. Thank you to all who registered. We look forward to seeing you!\n
