Celtic rockers Mudmen perform at Peterborough Musicfest Wednesday with local fiddler Irish Millie opening

Celtic rockers Mudmen performs a free-admission concert at Peterborough Musicfest in Del Crary Park on August 6, 2025, with Peterborough fiddler Irish Millie opening. (kawarthaNOW collage)

Take two kilt-wearing brothers of sizable stature, throw in the bagpipes for each, and then let them do their thing, backed by very talented musicians, and a unique sound and energy that’s as fresh as it is likely.

Back in 1998, that scenario played out in southwestern Ontario’s Lambton County, forming the genesis of Mudmen. Fast forward 27 years later, and founding members Robby and Sandy Campbell are still in the mix, with the band’s over-the-top Celtic rock sound continuing to resonate with music fans across the country.

So it was that when Peterborough Musicfest first considered presenting Irish Week as a nod to the year-long commemoration marking the bicentennial of the arrival of Irish emigrants to these parts, Mudmen checked a very big box in terms of the Celtic feel and sound sought.

On Wednesday (August 6), Mudmen will headline the summer music festival at Del Crary Park, with Peterborough’s very own Irish Millie opening the 8 p.m. concert. Admission, as always, is free, thanks in no small way to the support of numerous sponsors, kawarthaNOW again among them.

Robby and Sandy Campbell’s musical journey began as The Campbell Brothers before they hooked up with Zoy Nicoles, Lonny Knapp, Tommy Skilton, and Ryan McCaffrey to form Mudmen — the band name born from the brothers’ previous job of mixing mortar for bricklayers.

Along with the Campbell brothers, the band’s current lineup is Colin Amey, Andy Gingerich, Alex Showdra, and Emmett Glancie.

VIDEO: “Who My Friends Are” – Mudmen

2001 saw the release of the band’s debut self-titled album — the first of 11 albums, the most recent being 2022’s Farmer’s Tan.

Influenced by traditional Scottish music as well as hard rock bands such as AC/DC, Mudmen’s raucous sound struck a chord, not only with its fan base but with event programmers and video game producers looking for something refreshingly different. As a result, Mudmen’s music has staked its place in popular culture.

For example, the single “Lost” from the band’s debut album was featured in a promotional video for the 2007 NBC television show The Black Donnellys while the single “Animal” has been featured as part of the soundtracks for video games and a number of Don Cherry’s hockey videos. Mudmen also wrote and recorded the ring entrance music for WWE wrestlers The Highlanders.

Career highlights include meeting and performing for Queen Elizabeth II on Parliament Hill, and performing at the 1984 Edmonton Oilers Stanley Cup team reunion, seven Grey Cups, three Memorial Cups, 12 Canada Walk of Fame ceremonies, and two Special Olympic opening ceremonies.

Singles-wise, “5 O”Clock,” “Saturday,” and “Drink And Fight” come to mind quickly, along with their frenetic Celtic sound-infused covers of songs such as Spirit of the West’s “Home For A Rest” and AC/DC’s “It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock ‘N’ Roll).”

In a May 2023 interview with Canadian Beats, the Campbell brothers told Jenna Melanson that their involvement in the band is all encompassing.

“Robby and I are the managers, booking agents, and the roadies, so there’s a lot of work behind the scenes that no one sees,” said Sandy.

“The actual performing part is awesome, and meeting people is one of the best parts of our job. When we go on stage at some of these large festivals, it’s a great feeling to see people really into the music and the moment. We’ve really been enjoying the theatres too, where people come only to see Mudmen and are there for no other reason than the music and the band.”

VIDEO: “Farmer’s Tan” – Mudmen

“Playing Celtic music is fun,” Sandy added. “It usually raises people’s spirits, or tends to make people drink more spirits. The awesome part about being in a touring band is seeing new places and new faces in big and small venues, and performing with my brother 25 years after we started Mudmen.”

In terms of early influences, Robby cites Stompin’ Tom Connors, in particular his “connection with the common man. He was real and lived the dream, tough as nails, and wouldn’t quit for nothing.”

For Sandy, it’s The Irish Rovers.

“We grew up watching them on TV. They were our mom’s favourite band and the first band we performed with. To me, being a good person is very important and these guys were great. It was an amazing experience joining them onstage for the first time at Hamilton Place with over 2,000 people in attendance. They are a big reason we pursued this career.”

As for advice for those starting their own musical journey, the brothers’ voice of experience is as timeless as it is invaluable.

“You need a day job and you’ll need to find your wallet. This is going to be very hard if you want to do original music. Spend within your budget, and keep your eyes peeled for the crooks and players in the business. They prey on young inexperienced people, tell them everything they want to hear, and then sell them the dream.”

“And make sure the people in your band are compatible and can work well together. If one person is shining, they are helping elevate the band, so don’t be jealous. Be thankful. And if you want to shine, then up your game.”

VIDEO: “Gramma” by Natalie McMaster – Irish Millie

Among those young performers who could benefit from the Campbell brothers’ good advice is Peterborough native Irish Millie, although the fiddling sensation is already well on her way to becoming a success nationally.

Inspired at just three years old by a live performance given by Nova Scotia fiddler Natalie MacMaster, Amelia Shadgett decided early on what she wanted to do, and has since done so in spades, performing anywhere and everywhere, most often accompanied by her guitar-playing father Murray.

A five-time Canadian Folk Music Award nominee, Irish Millie blends old-time fiddling with bold creative flair and original songwriting. At just age 19, she has recorded three albums — Thirteen, Grace, and Between Then And Now — and, as The Receivers along with Ottawa-area sisters Fern and Willow Marwood, released the EP The Trilogy.

Currently studying music industry and technology at the University of Toronto, Irish Millie continues to captivate a growing audience with her talent and passion.

Irish Week at Del Crary Park will conclude on Saturday (August 9) with The Celtic Tenors, that trio making the trip across the Atlantic Ocean from Ireland to Peterborough — much the same as some 2,000 settlers did in 1825, albeit much faster and in considerably greater comfort.

Kawarthas health unit encourages residents to consider applying for the Canadian Dental Care Plan

Eligible Canadians of all ages can now apply for dental coverage under the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), and the Kawarthas health unit is encouraging residents to see if they qualify for care.

The Haliburton, Kawartha, Northumberland, Peterborough District Health Unit (HKNP) — the legal name of the now-merged Peterborough Public Health and Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge (HKPR) District Health Unit — is advising families to explore the program’s eligibility requirements to receive the dental coverage they need.

The health unit is also advising families that are currently enrolled in Healthy Smiles Ontario (HSO), a free dental program funded by the Ontario government for eligible children and youth 17 and under, that some dental offices are requesting that families enrol in CDCP. The federal and provincial governments are coordinating with providers how claims will be submitted and reimbursed under both programs.

“Good oral health is fundamental to overall well-being, and programs like HSO and the CDCP play a critical role in making dental care accessible to qualifying children and youth,” states Anna Rusak, health promoter with the HKPR District Health Unit, in a media release.

“With an increasing number of dental providers asking patients to enroll in CDCP, we want to make sure families are aware and prepared. We are here to help them through the application process.”

The CDCP is a federal government initiative aimed at making dental care more affordable for eligible Canadians. The CDCP originally rolled out in December 2023 to seniors 70 and older. In May 2024, applications opened for seniors over 65. The following month, applications were also opened to adults with a disability tax credit certificate and children under 18. In May 2025, applications opened for those aged 18 to 64 years.

According to the latest data from May, more than four million Canadians have applied for the plan, including over 1.5 million in Ontario, with just over two million applicants having received dental care, including 792,689 in Ontario.

As of May, 25,668 oral health providers across Canada — dentists and dental specialists, denturists, and independent dental hygienists — are participating in CDCP, including 10,956 in Ontario.

To be eligible for CDCP, applicants must be Canadian residents for tax purposes, have no existing private dental insurance or coverage, must have filed their tax returns in Canada so that family income can be assessed for the previous year, and must have an adjusted family net income of less than $90,000. People who receive dental coverage through other social programs such as Healthy Smiles Ontario and Ontario Disability Support Program may qualify, but coverage will be coordinated between the plans to make sure there is no duplication or gaps in coverage.

CDCP will pay between 40 and 100 per cent of the costs for oral health care services, depending on family income and if the services received are covered by CDCP. Services covered include dental exams, cleaning, x-rays, fillings, root canals, periodontal services, posts and crowns, dentures, oral surgery, and more. Some procedures will require preauthorization to be covered by CDCP. The federal government also plans to add orthodontic services to CDCP in 2025, but only in cases of medical need based on strict criteria.

Families who qualify for CDCP will receive a package from Sun Life, the company managing the program. This package will include a member card, program details, and the start date for benefits.

It is important to wait until the benefit start date before booking any dental appointments, according to the health unit, adding that families should then find a dentist who accepts CDCP clients.

“Start by asking your current dental office if they accept CDCP,” the health unit advises. “If you don’t already have a dentist, you can look up CDCP-approved providers using Sun Life’s online search tool or by calling Sun Life at 1-888-888-8110 for help.”

Finally, when making an appointment and before starting any treatment, the health unit recommends residents confirm the oral health provider accepts CDCP clients, check their benefit start date and any costs they may need to pay, ask if there are any extra fees beyond what CDCP covers and. if so, request an estimate or the specific amount that will be owed.

Families should never pay the full cost upfront, as Sun Life will not reimburse them directly, the health unit noted.

For more information about CDCP eligibility and to apply online, visit www.canada.ca/en/services/benefits/dental/.

The health unit states it is available to answer any questions and provide help with applications at 1-866-888-4577 ext. 1247.

Poor air quality in the Kawarthas region from forest fire smoke may persist into Monday

Poor air quality and reduced visibility in the Kawarthas caused by smoke from forest fires over the Prairies may persist into the Civic Holiday Monday (August 4).

On Saturday, Environment Canada issued a special air quality statement for the entire Kawarthas region that remains in effect on Sunday and may continue into Monday.

According to the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks, the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) for central Ontario is forecast to be at 7, which is in the high-risk range.

Advertisement - content continues below

 

 

The 10-point AQHI scale is low risk (1-3), moderate risk (4-6), high risk (7-10), and very high risk (over 10).

In the high-risk range, people should consider reducing or rescheduling strenuous activities outdoors, especially if they experience symptoms such as coughing and throat irritation. People with heart or breathing problems are at greater risk.

Air quality and visibility due to wildfire smoke can fluctuate over short distances and can vary considerably from hour to hour.

The bright orange dots represent active fires, and the deeper colours represent higher concentrations of PM2.5 air pollution, which are fine particles with a diameter of 2.5 micrometres or less that can be inhaled deeply into the lungs and even enter the bloodstream, posing significant health risks.

As smoke levels increase, health risks increase. Limit time outdoors. Consider reducing or rescheduling outdoor sports, activities and events.

You may experience mild and common symptoms such as eye, nose and throat irritation, headaches, or a mild cough. More serious but less common symptoms include wheezing, chest pains, or severe cough. If you think you are having a medical emergency, seek immediate medical assistance.

People more likely to be impacted by outdoor air pollution, including people aged 65 and older, pregnant people, infants and young children, people with an existing illness or chronic health condition, and people who work outdoors should reduce or reschedule strenuous activities outdoors and seek medical attention if experiencing symptoms.

When indoors, keep windows and doors closed as much as possible. When there is an extreme heat event occurring with poor air quality, prioritize keeping cool.

Protect your indoor air from wildfire smoke. Actions can include using a clean, good quality air filter in your ventilation system or a certified portable air cleaner that can filter fine particles.

If you must spend time outdoors, a well-constructed, well-fitting and properly worn respirator type mask (such as a NIOSH-certified N95 or equivalent respirator) can reduce your exposure to the fine particles in the smoke. Even though exposure may be reduced, there can still be risks to health.

Check in on others who are in your care or live nearby who may be more likely to be impacted by outdoor air pollution.

What’s open and closed on the 2025 Civic Holiday

You can kick back and relax this Civic Holiday long weekend instead of rushing around to get your shopping done, as all grocery stores, malls, and big box stores are open on the holiday Monday, along with selected beer and liquor stores. (Stock photo)

Since the Civic Holiday is not a statutory holiday in Ontario and is not listed in Ontario’s Employment Standards Act or Retail Business Holidays Act, most businesses are open on Monday, although they may have reduced hours. Almost all grocery stores, malls, and big box stores are open on Monday, and selected liquor stores and beer stores are also open. Many tourism attractions are also open. However, all government offices are closed and many government-operated services are unavailable.

For your convenience, we provide this list of holiday hours for 301 selected businesses, services, and organizations across the Kawarthas. This information comes from their websites and social media accounts, which may or may not be up to date, so please always call them first to confirm their hours (we’ve included phone numbers), especially where you see “call” or “call to confirm” (which means we couldn’t find or confirm holiday hours) or if you are travelling any distance.

If your business or organization is listed and the hours are incorrect, please let us know by using our content feedback form. We do not have the hours for restaurants in this list as there are far too many to include.

YMCA Northumberland reveals flicks on the bill for September’s ‘Encore at the Midway’ fundraiser

YMCA Northumberland has shared the movie line-up for "Encore at the Midway", a two-night double-feature fundraiser for YMCA Northumberland's "Back on Track" program for youth taking place September 5 and 6, 2025 at Port Hope's former drive-in theatre. (kawarthaNOW collage)

With close to 750 votes cast and counted, YMCA Northumberland has revealed the flicks on the bill for its “Encore at the Midway” fundraising event in September.

Community members chose their favourite films from a list of classic and blockbuster movies to be shown on the big screen at the former Midway drive-in theatre near Port Hope.

Encore at the Midway is a two-night fundraiser for YMCA Northumberland. Community members can join the fun on Friday, September 5 and Saturday, September 6. There will be two films shown each night, and the event also features live entertainment, popcorn, and food truck vendors.

“In honour of the drive-in’s 75-plus year legacy, we curated a line-up that spans its history, from iconic classics of the 1940s to ’60s to blockbuster favourites from the 1970s through the early 2000s,” Kathryn Harrison, director of marketing and philanthropy for YMCA Northumberland, told kawarthaNOW.

“Following a community vote with nearly 750 responses, we finalized the selections in collaboration with the studios. Our goal was to choose films that everyone could enjoy.”

“With such well-loved favourites on the big screen, we’re hopeful these movies will set the stage for a memorable celebration and a successful night for an important cause,” Harrison added.

Friday’s movie line-up begins with the 1967 animated adventure The Jungle Book at 8 p.m., followed by the 1978 musical comedy Grease at 10:30 p.m. On Saturday, the evening begins with the 1994 animated musical The Lion King at 8 p.m., followed by the 2003 action adventure Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl at 10:30 p.m.

Tickets are $125 per carload (of up to eight people) per night. The price includes general admission for all passengers, live local music before each movie (including Greatest of Ease and Garage Dogs on Friday night and Cale Crowe on Saturday night, with more bands to be announced), free popcorn, and a $50 charitable donation receipt for every ticket sold.

When Port Hope’s former drive-in theatre closed in 2023, it was Canada’s longest continually operating drive-in theatre and only one of two drive-ins remaining in the Kawarthas. The decision to close was related to declining business due to the impact of the pandemic, combined with the increasing popularity of streaming platforms for in-home entertainment along with the high cost of living and increased gas prices.

YMCA Northumberland said the two-night event at the drive-in theatre offers the opportunity to share a unique and memorable experience with family members and friends.

“Bringing this cherished venue back to life after its closure requires extra resources reflected in the price,” a media release noted. “But, most importantly, every ticket helps change a young person’s future.”

The event is about more than two nights of movies — it’s “a weekend community celebration of the past and an investment in the future,” said YMCA Northumberland president and CEO Eunice Kirkpatrick in a statement.

“We know people love the Midway — so do we. This is our way of giving it the send-off it deserves while turning that love into life-changing support for local teens.”

All proceeds from Encore at the Midway will benefit “Back on Track,” described as YMCA Northumberland’s transformative program for youth aged 12 to 17 who are facing a school suspension setback.

Since 2021, the program has helped students in partnership with eight area schools and two local school boards, providing individualized plans, skill development, and close family and school engagement to turn moments of crisis into opportunities for growth, empowering at-risk youth to reclaim their future, the release noted.

“When my daughter was suspended, we both felt lost,” shared a parent. “But what started as punishment became a phenomenal opportunity. By the end of her suspension, she returned to school happier, stronger, and more self-assured than I had seen her in a very long time. For our family, this program was a lifeline.”

With a maximum of 400 vehicle spots available each night, YMCA Northumberland expects the tickets will sell quickly.

Tickets are on sale now at ymcanrt.org/encore.

The Beach Report for August 1 to 7, 2025

Victoria Park Beach in Cobourg. (Photo: Town of Cobourg)

Every Friday during swimming season, we post The Beach Report™ — our weekly report of the results of water quality testing at beaches in the greater Kawarthas region — and update it throughout the week as conditions change.

As of Saturday, August 2 at 3 p.m., the following beaches are unsafe for swimming:

  • Beavermead Park in Peterborough
  • Rogers Cove in Peterborough
  • Caldwell Street Beach in Port Hope

In addition, as of July 3, Peterborough Public Health has received multiple reports of residents experiencing swimmer’s itch, a skin rash caused by an allergic reaction to infection with certain parasites of birds and mammals, after swimming at White’s Beach in Trent Lakes. For more information and precautions, visit the Swimmer’s Itch page on the health unit’s website.

Below are the complete results of water quality testing at beaches in the City and County of Peterborough, the City of Kawartha Lakes, Haliburton County, Northumberland County, and Hastings County and Prince Edward County.

In the City of Peterborough, Peterborough Public Health Inspectors sample the beaches at Rogers Cove and Beavermead every business day, and public beaches in the County of Peterborough are sampled at least once a week (except for Chandos Beach, Quarry Bay Beach, and White’s Beach which are sampled at least once in June, July, and August).

The Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit provides weekly testing results for beaches in the City of Kawartha Lakes, Haliburton County, and Northumberland County. Testing is based on the most recent test results from the provincial lab in Peterborough for water samples taken from these beaches.

As of 2025, Hastings Prince Edward Public Health provides weekly testing results for only six designated public beaches in Hastings County and Prince Edward County. It no longer regularly samples another 13 beaches due to historically low occurrence of high bacteria levels.

During the summer, local health units sample water at area beaches and test for bacteria such as E. coli to determine if the water quality at a beach is safe for public use. Popular beaches, like the beach at Roger's Cove in Peterborough's East City, are tested every business day while most other beaches are tested weekly. (Photo: Bruce Head / kawarthaNOW.com)

Important note

The following test results may not reflect current water quality conditions. Water samples can take one to three days to process and heavy rainfall, high winds or wave activity, large numbers of waterfowl near a beach, or large numbers of swimmers can rapidly change water quality.

You should always check current conditions before deciding to use a beach. You should also monitor other factors that might suggest a beach is unsafe to use, such as floating debris, oil, discoloured water, bad odours, and excessive weed growth.

While we strive to update this story with the current conditions, you should confirm the most recent test results by visiting the local health unit websites at Peterborough Public Health, Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit, and Hastings Prince Edward Public Health. As noted above, the beaches at Rogers Cove and Beavermead are tested every business day so the results listed below may not be current.
