Dr. Seuss Presents Winter Carnival 2016

Article & photos by Barb Fisher The Cat in the Hat sure was busy representing all the wonderful sights and activities at this year's Carnival, albeit with some long underwear beneath his one-zies! The parade floats demonstrated again that there is no stopping great imagination in our community as a sea of grinning youngsters, and wanna-be youngsters tipped their striped top hats and other recognizable Dr. Seuss attire to everyone who has grown up with his delightful characters.

Attracting much attention was a very convincing Mr. Grinch accompanying Ms. Cat in the wonderful striped hat, and mingling throughout the festivities, Mayor Rody was accompanied by his feathered mascot Grady the Wawa Goose who did a little beak synching in his welcoming remarks to the community. Judges of the floats settled on 1st prize to TransCanada Chrysler, 2nd prize to St. Joseph

French Immersion School, 3rd prize to Wawa Minor Hockey, most humorous to Municipality of Wawa and the most spirited again to Defined Movement Dance.

At the Community Centre the weekend kicked off with the fireworks display exploding overhead while everyone huddled around the blazing bonfire all carefully lit up, set up and stoked up by our trusty Volunteer Firefighters and the Michipicoten First Nation drummers lent their talents to the welcome. Inside the community centre, a life sized Cat in the Hat fashioned in paper mache, handiwork of the Michipicoten First Nation Youth Council beckoned the crowd out of the blistering cold and into the Artisans and Sellers Fair to look over the great selection of gifts for one and all - just in time for Valentine's Day. It seemed to me that the number of exhibitors surpassed last year with the selection varied and wide. Besides the vendors selling scented candles, jams, jellies, spices, jewellry, makeup, cleanses, dietary and natural health aids, my words cannot give justice in describing Wawa's abundance of talent in our artisans: leather and fur apparel, art works, baked goods, sewn, crocheted, knitted and finger weaved handywork.

Several authors displayed their self-authored books for all ages, and homemade greeting cards were offered to accompany some fine silk flower arrangements for those of us challenged in keeping real plants alive.

Getting into the carnival mode with the artwork and handcrafty talented people among us, the contestants' entries were difficult to judge, so as in last year the entire community was invited to vote with the popular vote determining the winners - Dr. Seuss inspired works

of art: 1st prize Eric Morrison, 2nd prize Marek Chalmers and 3rd prize Samantha Toffner.

Crochet/knit/sewn Dr. Seuss hat creations: 1st prize Michelle Wheatley and 2nd prize Christine Sorial. Well done everyone.

The Science North exhibit is always a big hit for my grandsons and with all the kids attending, I believe that many parents thanked the Science North elf for a few moments of peace. There were many interactive stations set up intended to test problem solving activities with puzzles, a ball bearing balancing maze, stacking and constructing shapes with magnets,

sticks and connectors, sorting items for balance, and legos.

A table full of electrical circuit and robotic gismos attracted much attention, and I'm not sure whether our local guys Cliff and Jeff were appointed to be the demonstrators, but they got deeply involved in explaining to everyone just what you can do with such paraphanalia.

I was intrigued by the reflex test table whereby contestants held a handle connected to a shock buzzer and when the music stopped, entrants were to press

a button, the last to press getting an electric shock. Enough to reboot my pacemaker!

Being the dog person that I am, I did not want to miss the Bill Young Memorial Dog Weight Pull. Again, as in other years it was a very frosty morning indeed, but besides some of the old faithfuls, there were a few new muzzles wondering what the payoff was for this annoying disruption from

the cozy couch. New comers Brutus, the Rotti-Bermese cross didn't seem impressed and Rootbeer, the golden retriever came to life when his handler rubbed the sweet spot on his head. Max, the husky sprang into action when his load was lightened and seemed to take in good humour the hurtful remark by his handler - "You're two bricks short of load, Max." I have to admit to having a favourite, Oscar the Boston terrier. This was his fourth year at the pull and at eight years old, his handler believes that he deserves retirement. However as if to dispell any such wussiness, Oscar jumped out of the blanketed comfort of his handler's arms, pulled the required weight and hopped back into his snuggly retreat.

Winners: • Small Class - 1st Trapper (Brett Robinson) 154 lbs in 5 sec., 2nd Oscar (Elizabeth Elliott) 116 lbs in 4 sec., 3rd Zip (Kathleen Johnson) 80 lbs in 1 min, 10 sec.

• Medium Class - 1st Max (Neil Farrington) 230 lbs in 21 sec, 2nd Rootbeer (Tracy Laing) 154 lbs in 35 sec.

• Large Class - Brutus (Bayne Young) 254 lbs in 25 sec.

Much thanks to Young's General Store for again sponsoring this event and donating trophies and prizes, and to Barb Thorne and helpers who make the event successful each year.

Winter Carnival 2016

...continued from page 1.

"Oh the Places We'll Go," the title of a Dr. Seuss book inspired Wawa's Figure Skating Club as the theme for their show. "Zoom, Zoom, We're Going to the Moon" showcased the little guys and gals: Callie Binda, Kingston Boychuk, Luca Gauthier, Isabel Goulet, Arielle Lajoie, Tripp Lamon, Rosalie Sheehan-Woods and Hannah White. "Fight Song" was interpreted by Emma Beach, Ella Stewart and Evelyn Stewart.

The little NHL wannabees skated to the bold "We are the Champions" - Joel Defoa, Owen McGregor, Ashton Neufeld, Mitchell Sheehan-Woods and Maelle White. Dancing to "Remember my Name (Fame)" Evie-Marie Beach, Adriana Casavant and Isabella Gingras.

"The Scary Song" provided great backup music for Jeff Binda, Brock Brisson, Gavin Burnham, Jake Geldart, Joshua Lajoie and Tanner Robinson who are obviously well on their way to future stardom. Makayla Gingras, Adelie Pinter, Chloe Roberts, Bryden Stamler and Havana Thibodeau completed the group presentations skating to "She'll be Coming Round the Mountain when she Comes."

Phew, hope I didn't miss anyone! The older skaters very bravely showcased their talent in solo performances and each skater did a fantastic job: "Wide Open Spaces" - Kelsey Scott, "Written in the Stars" - Raelyn Scott, "How Bad Can I Be?" Courtney Proulx, duet "Swing the Mood" - Kasie and Leya Scott, "All by Myself" - Delaney Schumacher, "Best Day of my Life" - Evelyn Stewart. Special guest soloist skater Abiguel Jones, a Wawa gal, is an inspiration to all of the skaters. She has followed her heart and pursued her dreams of becoming the best skater she can be, and the love of her art was evident by

the fantastic performance of her two numbers. Abiguel was presented with a bouquet of flowers at the end of her flawless performance in appreciation of what can be achieved in following your dream. Much thanks is extended to coaches Kayley Kettles, Courtney Proulx, James Stewart, the many hardworking unsung heroes, business sponsors and dedicated parents. Also a heartfelt thank you to all who contributed to the bake sale and Heidi and River McLaren who offered beautiful fresh flowers for sale; all proceeds from the baking and flowers going to help out the Wawa Figure Skating Club.

There was much going on over the weekend that sadly I could not partake in - food venues and nighttime activities

had worked diligently to offer a great outside ice surface for the all girl Mustangs' hockey game and public and moonlight skating to those hardy people eager to emulate our forefathers. Inside the community centre on Saturday, Superior Children's-Best Start Hub offered a fun zone arcade of games, prizes, and family dance, and the Michipicoten First Nation Youth Council showed off their "Lip Synching" talents and offered everyone to join in. On Saturday afternoon, the Lion's Club again brought back the family favourite - Bingo.

Monday afternoon wrapped up the festivities with always a crowd pleaser, the cardboard box races convened by members of the Michipicoten First Nation. Again, all entries got

that go on way beyond my bedtime, but of which I hear were well visited. Wawa Goose Club Senior's Drop In Centre began the eatfest at Friday noon and Evelyn's chili and Indian Tacos are always a big hit. Those seeking green eggs and ham could explore the Rotary Club breakfasts Saturday and Sunday mornings with a very guarded rumour that strawberries and cream topping were a valentine's add-on for those lucky early risers.

In other events, our minor hockey Atom Travellers met the Chapleau Huskies in two games of their regular league play, with our guys winning both games 9-2 and 7-3. The Royal Canadian Legion again offered a Wing Ding night with darts and cribbage tournaments, and live entertainment downstairs with Keith Killins and the Goodtimers. Free skating was available Friday and Sunday evenings in the arena and out on the outdoor ice pad which the town employees

into the feature theme with strangely painted smiling faces peering through their masks and poised for the descent in their Dr. Seuss decorated boxes... oops I mean sleek snow sleds. It was obvious to me that as talented as our kids are, there

seemed to be a little professional advice on structural support to a certain cardboard box.

In any event, most sleds made it to the finish line and beyond, the "best crash" happening soon after clearing the start line.

Great technique and control by all sleders.

Much thanks again goes out to organizers, donators and volunteers for bringing out the kid in all of us. In the wise words of Dr. Seuss - "If you never did, you should. Things are fun, and fun is good!"

SnowDown's 2nd Year Bigger & Better Article by Barb Fisher, photos supplied The second annual Snow Down snowmobile rally got underway speeding off from the Wawa Motor Inn Saturday morning with an increase in numbers this year to 45 riders from our area, Michigan and southern Ontario. The event shared the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Club's offer of "free ride Family Day weekend" and the many other fun filled events during our own Carnival Weekend. Klim Canada, outdoor gear and accessory outlet, sponsored this year's event with Rally Connex again, as in last year, organizing the trail layout and rider information in the two routes offered: - Trailblazer class - on-trail ride with some basic off-trail opportunities. The trail headed north east to White Fish Lake and Hawk Junction with a supersized lunch break at the Big Bear Hotel in Hawk. Riders followed a trivia questionnaire and clue sheet where riders were challenged to identify various items, facts and details along the route to earn prizes at the finish.

- Pounder Hound class - more challenging route with off-trail powder riding, and boondocking testing the skill, stamina, agility, strength and confidence in completing their mission successfully. This trail headed south with a lunch break provided at Anjigami Lake. Riders followed self-guided, clue and route sheets using GPS, employing selfie challenges and collecting

videos and photos of our fantastic vistas in our back country.

Sunday offered an unorganized ride to Half Way Haven to our south for anyone who wanted to keep up the momentum. Saturday night wrapped up the rally at the Community Centre where riders were treated to a fantastic dinner and prizes given out. Plaques were awarded to the top winners and random draw picks ensured that everyone got a prize from the fine array of gifts donated by local and area businesses.

Later in the evening a community dance invited anyone wishing to share a great evening to celebrate everything going on during the Carnival, and to enjoy the great live music provided by NUIT. The Pounder Hound class drew strong interest again this year, selling out completely before starting, and already planning for next year, the organizers will be looking at enhancing this part of the event making 2017 better than ever.

Rally Connex thanked all sponsors: Klim Canada, Wawa Motor Inn, MacIntyre Trucking, JJAM-FM Radio, Jones Power Sports, and Municipality of Wawa. A huge appreciation was given to Rally Connex, Wawa SnoRiders, Russ and Gord Jones, Lori Johnson who again did a fantastic job of pulling it all together, and the many dedicated volunteers who made the event a great success.

Next year promises to be bigger and better - see you there.

"What's Happening In Wawa" Exposition Article by Barb Fisher It was 27 years ago that this Exposition showcased dozens of services, businesses, organizations, clubs and other events as the place to be to find out what goes on in our busy town. Unfortunately, this popular event fell by the wayside for various reasons and this year, The Rotary Club of Wawa decided to resurrect the Exposition in conjunction with the Winter Carnival festivities. I didn't quite know what to expect as I gathered my camera and notebook and entered the halls of the Michipicoten Highschool - I was overwhelmed with all the busy displays lining the halls and in calculating my two hour time limit to cover everyone, I quickly lengthened my stride: - OPP Sault detachment included in our Algoma District featured "Timber" a general service dog based in the Soo. Timber was a great drawing card for the youngsters who could learn all about how service dogs are used in saving lives. His canine special missions include search and rescue in missing and lost persons, and drug and firearm detection. Included was a display of aids used in the vigorous training exercises used in service dog readiness.

- Regional Employment Help Centre - promoting employment services for job seekers and employers.

- Wawa Volunteer Firefighters - display showcasing ice water rescue techniques and handouts given on fire safety tips in the home.

- North Algoma Literacy Coalition - learning centre targetting at adults - North Algoma Diabetes Education Program in conjunction with the Lady Dunn Health Centre. Nurses and dietitian are approachable, always available and listen to concerns when working with patients to reach realistic and achievable goals, and to stay motivated in their struggle to overcome diabetes.

- Iris Place - non-profit agency welcoming anyone and everyone to their safe, comfortable drop-in site to share information, work to erase the stigma of mental illness, network with other agencies and support each other in their challenges.

- Wawa Public Library - "It takes a Library to raise a Community". A wide range of resources include: books, magazines, movies, Wii games, talking books, interlibrary loans, and services: printing/photocopying, laminating/faxing, reading/study place, community information and computer/internet access.

- Community Garden - garden plots available for hands-on experience with gardening for food production, composting to reduce landfill waste, offering opportunities for schools, organizations and community

members to develop community pride in collective accomplishments.

- Wawa Community Food Bank - alarming statistics were displayed showing the growing need for non-judgemental help for people struggling to feed their families. Many organizations and private donators have heeded the call to make sure no one goes hungry in our community.

- Fingerweaving by Carolle Beaulieu-Pitre - Carolle displayed weavings and answered any questions regarding her gift in crafting beautiful works of fingerweaving art with designs influenced by the early Voygeurs, Acadians and Metis people.

- Bucks Marina - Travis was on hand to promote his business and stressed that Bucks Marina was much more than a boat and motor sales and maintenance centre. He urged people to come on down to the marina and check out all the maintenance, accessory and safety items available onsite, and through catalogue and on-line sales.

- Wawa and Area Victim Services - specially trained volunteers provide short term, confidential, emotional and practical assistance to victims of crime and tragic circumstance.

- Rotary Club - helping developing countries world wide in health programs and disaster services. The polio vaccine program was showcased in an interesting display illustrating their program to eradicate polio from the world. Partnering with other world health organizations an important fact was illustrated: in 1985, 1,000 cases of polio were reported per day, or 350,000 cases per year occurring in 199 countries around the world. As of December 31, 2015, a total of 78 cases were reported for the year in only 2 countries. They proudly sported their motto "We Are This Close".

- Royal Bank - representatives promoted awareness of community programs such as employee volunteer time to non-profit organizations, grants available for approved projects, community sponsorships and student scholarship and bursaries available.

- Algoma Public Health smoking sessation display of two real pig lungs, one healthy and the other discoloured to illustrate, very graphically the point of what smoking will do to the human lung. Nathalie operated a foot pump which illustrated air filling into the healthy lung as opposed to the compromised air capacity in the diseased lung - a very interesting display garnering much activity.

- Northern Credit Union promoting our local Credit Union as a financial institution offering in their products and services everything a major financial institution can offer

and more. Phone enquiries are always answered directly by a person; no call centres are used, something that is very comforting in simply trying to access information.

- Lady Dunn Health Centre Foundation - proudly reported on their four core fundraisers held each year, together with private donations with all funds staying in our community. Since 2009 the Foundation has raised over $250,000 and purchased nine pieces of medical equipment.

- Wesdome Mines is a very important major employer in our community and vicinity celebrating 20 years in operation. Many positive statistics were available and offered in their operation which employs 304 employees, combined with contractors, at the Mine, Mill and Office Sites.

- Superior Children's Centre/ Best Start Hub - offering help in giving our children of all ages the best guidance and example setting in circumventing the most difficult job in the world - raising and guiding our children to successful adults.

- Wawa Ice Fishing Derby, in cooperation with the Wawa Sno-riders - promoted this year's derby which supports and turns profits back into our community.

- Tim Hortons - a major employment opportunity and vibrant business in town which supports various community projects and fundraisers, and as they often do, provided coffee to the Exposition attendees.

A welcomed addition to the display kiosks offered everyone to sit and enjoy two demos: Defined Movement Dance team led by Samantha Stewart offered a great dance review showcasing the dancing talent of our youngsters, and the Archery Club featured the keen eye and reflexes of Adam Edwards, Kathleen Johnson and James Dumouchelle.

Personally speaking I was overwhelmed by the number of exhibitors and pleasantly surprised by all the great information offered in this Exposition. It is a huge undertaking and hope that it will continue in the coming years. Once again, it is our untiring volunteers stepping up to the plate to enlighten us and remind us once again how lucky we are to live in this great community. Many of the service outlets and organizations showcased operate in part or entirely on volunteers and there is always room for more people willing to contribute their time and expertise. If you feel you can fill any niche and welcome the feeling of being appreciated, make enquiries and begin a new happy chapter in your life. Wawa's Economic Development Corporation has a full listing of community contact numbers (705) 856-4419. Thank you again, exhibitors and volunteers!

Opinions, or observations from an old newsman - by Bob Avis

The Latest Cure!

At the end of television news reports they often air little tidbits of information apparently just to fill out the last bit of leftover time. Among these recently I noted a report on a new hope for cancer patients.

I emphasize the word “hope” because there have so often been reports of new discoveries for the treatment of one of the most fearsome diseases known to humanity. Each time one of these wonder cures are announced a huge segment of the population is given a surge of desperate hope for an extension of life they wouldn’t otherwise expect. Those who are nearing the end of life due to the inevitable advance of final stage cancer.

But these wonder cures are so often nothing more substantial than pipe dreams. It so often turns out that a new treatment/cure is not quite so effective or sometimes even turns out to be spurious. Once again desperately sick people are left clutching at straws while a hoped for treatment sinks back into obscurity.

However, the one I saw mentioned on the CBC National News the other night may have a little more substance than some of the hopeful cancer cures have offered.

The latest research into cancer fighting drugs has delved into the idea that the disease may be treatable by using other viruses to destroy the cancer virus. Science has discovered that a virus found in a South American sand fly,

combined with the common cold virus, has shown positive results in the treatment of animals.

The results are so promising that they have moved on into human trials, a practice that is not usually followed without some reason. Further, indications are that the combination is actually killing the cancer cells, not just retarding their growth. It all looks pretty hopeful.

It was mentioned on the same report that the testing process has all the candidates for trials that are required right now and that the proven results of the trials will not be available for some time.

Results of any certainty will not be released for five to ten years from now assuming they’ve really got something.

It certainly would be wonderful to imagine a win against cancer within our lifetimes.

All this led to a further thought. If we defeat cancer, and with any luck, heart disease in the next few years, what are we going to do with all the people? I have read that if we beat those two killer diseases, it would not be unusual to live to the age of 140 or 150 years.

Think abut that for a minute! We are already having a problem with supporting an increase of senior citizens.

What will it be like if the majority of people are “not” dying? There’s going to be a hell of a crowd on this old world before we know it.

I was looking forward to the Legion Public Speaking Contest and the 21 students who participated in it did not disappoint me. Our Comrade Barb Leschishin did a wonderful job guiding these youngsters through their speeches.

It always amazes everyone there about the inspiration and subjects (from my red truck to frustration and more) and how our youngsters think today about the world they live in. All in all it was again a big success and I am always happy to be 1 of her many helpers. And a thank you to our Ladies Auxiliary who put out the snacks and beverages.

Now we are all looking forward to St. Patrick's Day and another fun night at the Legion. Our Ladies Auxiliary will have another Sports

Spaghetti suppers on March 10th and I know everyone always enjoys the good food and friendly service from the gals.

Our lady darters had a good night last Wednesday and team 1 took 3 games, team 2 - 5, team 3 - 6, team 4 - 6, team 5 - 4 and team 6 took 6 games. High finish was Tammy with 66 and high ton was Jeannette L with 131. It was busy at cribbage last Saturday and 1st were Donna and Shirley, 2nd John and Laverne, 3rd Carol and Joan. Boobs were Carol and Jeanette and 24 hand Alma.

A man was visiting the countryside and went to do some shopping at the local general store. There was a sign next to the store entrance which read 'BEWARE OF THE DOG!' So he entered the store and saw a really old, grey dog laying asleep in front of the counter.

So he asked the owner about the sign and said, "This dog really does not look dangerous!"

So the store owner said, "I had to put up the sign because many customers trip over him!"

To all our Comrades sick at home, in the hospital or nursing homes, you are in our thoughts and prayers and we wish you well.

The ALGOMA NEWS Review

Letters to the Editor...

Dear Editor, It has come to my attention that the article appearing in the Algoma News Review on February 3rd, 2016, has created some confusion amongst the readers regarding the topic upon which i spoke at the recent Women’s Gala. As a pharmacist, I spoke about prescription and non-prescription products, including natural health products, which may be helpful in managing symptoms of menopause as they affect sexuality in the aging female.

Pharmacists are first-line health care professionals, trained in medication management, and able to provide advice and information on many common health topics and ailments.

The pharmacist is the most accessible member of the health care team and their knowledge is available to anyone wishing to visit or telephone their pharmacy for a quick consultation.

While a short discussion may be all that you require, you can also book an appointment with a pharmacist for a MedsCheck.

This is a program available at no charge to all persons having an Ontario Health Card and taking 3 or more prescription medications for a chronic condition. A MedsCheck consultation takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes and is designed to increase your knowledge about the medications you take, including why, when and how to take them, and any possible side effects or interactions. As well, the MedsCheck At Home program is available for those unable to leave their home. The pharmacist’s role in the provision of information, education, and pharmaceutical care has a positive impact on clients’ health outcomes.

Thank you, dear editor, for allowing me this space to clarify any misunderstanding created by your article, and to underscore the professional role of the pharmacist as a valued member of the health care team.

Sincerely, Ann M. Fenlon (Simard) BSc. Phm., MSc., RPh. Pharmacist

Cuban woman have used the flower not only as an adornment for their hair, but also to transmit messages during liberation wars, and as a sign of their being Cuban. There can be no better emblem for the 2016 World Day of Prayer service written by the World Day of Prayer Committee of Cuba. The service transmits their witness and experience of being Cuban and Christian, even when their faith meant isolation within the country they love.

With the triumph of the Revolution, a trade embargo by the United States brought Cuba economic isolation and material scarcity.

Within Cuba a similar isolation formed around people of faith in the officially atheist state. Now the embargo is lifting, but uncertainty remans for the Cuban people. What can these women tell the rest of the world about how faith endures in a secular world, of material and social challenges, and of hope?

On March 4th, 2016, Christians in more than 170 countries and in 2,000 communities across Canada will gather to learn about, pray for, and celebrate Cuba in solidarity with the women of Cuba through the World Day of Prayer. Please join us and

Prayer 2016.

A local World Day of Prayer service will be held at St. Monica Church starting with a supper at 5:30 p.m. in the St. Monica Meeting Room and the service to follow at 7:00 p.m. in the St. Monica Church.

For more information on the World Day of Prayer services in this community, please contact Joanne DeVries at 705-856-4220.

The World Day of Prayer has its roots in an ecumenical day of prayer organized by women in Canada and the United States in 1920. This event became the international World Day of Prayer in 1922, and Christians around the world began celebrating this event on the first Friday of March.

In Canada, the World Day of Prayer is coordinated by the Women’s Inter-Church Council of Canada.

The week of February 8 was a busy one at Sir James Dunn.

The Public Speaking school finals were held on February 8th at 6:30 p.m. In the primary division, Nola, Rylan and TJ advanced to the town finals. Kendra, Logan and Erik advanced in the junior division, and Shayne, Trista and Adam advanced in the intermediate division. Good luck to all the speakers when they present their speeches at the Legion on February 17.

Students and staff were disappointed to not be able to participate in the Wawa Winter Carnival Parade on

June 12, but the extremely cold weather concerned Mrs. Jarvis enough that she decided to not risk frostbite to any of the participants. A picture of one of the banners that would have been on the float and a group picture of the JK – Gr. 3/4 students with their Dr. Seuss masks was taken in the gym.

Many of the classrooms had Valentine and 100th Day celebrations on February 12th. The kindergarten class spearheaded a food drive for the Food Bank and collected well over 100 food items. Way to go, JK and SK! SJD’s the place to be!

With Jim White

An Academy Awards Party To Remember

It was a party to remember, all the party goers agreed afterwards. On Sunday, February 28/16 a group of friends gathered at the house of Robert and Loretta Younger that afternoon and evening for their annual Academy Awards party. This has been going on for 5 years now. Their invited friends usually came around 3 for wine and cheese, and to settle down for a heated discussion on who should win the major categories, and who will likely win. Once everyone had arrived and written down their predictions, they were taped to the wall beside the TV down in their rec room. The person who guessed the most winners got an imitation Oscar statue. Loretta had bought it at Dollarama that first year when she first organized this get together. The winner gets to keep it for a year and then brings it to the next party, she reminded everyone.

They were ready to eat by 5:30 so they could be ready to watch the red carpet coverage at 6 p.m..

Supper was always pot luck.

Everyone also brought their own homemade wine, as they were all also in the wine club together too. Loretta always made little shortbread cookies in the shape of the Oscar statue. She covered them in a golden yellow icing.

Everyone agreed they were the highlight. She told them that she came up with the idea after watching a story about the chef Wolfgang Puck who made them for the Governor's Ball that the stars went to after the ceremony.

This year the friends included Gracie Kelly, Maggie Smyth, Jim Stewart, Frank Sinatram, Liza Taylor, Debbie Reynoldson, and Dick Burton. Their next door neighbours, Gary and Gladys Cooper also came over. The Youngers' two children, Jacob and Laura, went next door to the Cooper's so this could be an adults only party. The teens had their own party lined up.

Loretta got the food set out on the kitchen counter and then called everyone up from the den downstairs. Everybody served themselves and headed back down to the rec room to eat.

Maggie opened up the discussion about the dresses on the red carpet – who looked the best, and who was the worst. She offered her opinion between mouthfuls. It didn't take long before the others jumped in with their opinions. The women took up most of the conversation on the clothing subject. The men just continued eating and rolled their eyes every once in a while. Then a roar went up when Frank commented: “I don't care what they wear, as long as it's low-cut and has high slits, so they show off their assets.” One of them threw a roll at him. Everyone laughed and groaned.

Finally they finished eating, and the dirty dishes were brought up to the kitchen, and piled in the sink. Loretta put on coffee and tea. Everyone agreed to have dessert later.

Finally 8 o'clock came, and it was time for the show to start.

And of course everyone had to comment on the opening by Chris Rock. Finally after nearly half an hour the first award was announced. Most of them got it right. Over the rest of the evening, there were comments about the dresses, the acceptance speeches, etc. During one of the commercial breaks, they rushed upstairs to get their dessert and drinks. Then they headed back downstairs, and settled in for the next set of awards. Not long after the desserts and coffee were gone, the wine began to flow again.

As the award tally added up, it looked like most of them were guessing correctly, despite their earlier discussion and disagreements. Loretta wondered what she would do if there were ties at the end. But then she heard a comment from Liza that needed refuting. The discussions became more animated leading up to the reading of the nominees, and then when the winner was announced there were yeahs and boos, depending on who won that category.

Then around 10, it was noticed that Jim seemed to have fallen asleep in his chair. Frank nudged him but couldn't get him to wake up. He commented what a sound sleeper he was. But about 5 minutes later, it was him that was asleep. By 11 everybody else was just laying there, slumped in their seats, staring at the TV set, offering no comments on the winners. By 11:30 everyone was sound asleep, or so it appeared.

They never did hear who won Best Director and Best Picture.

The Younger kids came in about 1 to find them all out cold, with the TV still on. They called out to their parents, but got no response. Jacob just shrugged his shoulders and said to his sister, “Some party eh. They're all passed out. I wonder what drugs they were on. Oh, well, I'm going to bed. I am going to have one more joint first, though, and finish off a couple of those wine bottles. They are open anyway. Don't want to let them go to waste, eh? You want some too?” Laura, who was 16 years old, while Jacob was the older one, aged 18, replied no. She added that she was going to bed.

She admitted she felt a hangover coming on for tomorrow. Jacob laid down on the floor, with his head against the fireplace. The fire had gone out long ago, but the stones were still warm. He settled in for a quiet time. At the top of the stairs, Laura changed her mind, and went back downstairs and picked up one of the nearly empty wine bottles. She took a swig, and quickly spit it out. It had a sour bitter taste.

She then smelled the bottle and puckered up her face. It had definitely gone bad. She then began checking the other bottles laying around the room. They all smelled the same. She quickly realized that everyone likely was suffering from alcohol poisoning.

She went over to her brother, and took the bottle away from him.

He put up just a token effort to grab it back from her.

She went into action. She ran upstairs and called 911. It didn't take the EMS long to arrive, and they soon had the situation under control. Paramedics came in to check on everyone downstairs. Before long there was several ambulances there, and quickly got everyone put in, and took them to the hospital. It created quite a stir in the neighbourhood too. Nothing like this ever happened before, they all commented as they gathered in the street.

Laura and Jacob spent a long night in the waiting room.

Finally about 6 that morning of Leap Year, February 29th, there was a real commotion in the ER, as machines and monitors began beeping. Laura stopped one of the nurses who was rushing into the room to ask what was happening. All she had time to say was that the poisoning had damaged everyone's kidneys and now was attacking their lungs. The last thing she said as she disappeared into the room was it was the most lethal wine contamination she had even seen, and she wasn't sure they could save anyone. Laura and Jacob just looked at each other in shock.

About ten minutes later, a stranger came down the hall, dressed in a doctor's white coat.

The fedora on his head looked out of place. It covered his face, leaving it dark and being unable to make out any features. He just seemed to float by Laura and Jacob, they later admitted, as he headed into the room.

There was lots of mumbling chatter going on that they could not understand. But then suddenly the beeping machines went quiet, one by one. As the last machine went quiet, the mysterious man came out and touched each of them on the shoulder, nodded, and floated away down the hall and out the door to the outside. They both suddenly felt a warm feeling inside, and their hangovers seemed to evaporate into thin air. Jacob commented to Laura how great he suddenly felt. She agreed. But then the doctor came out, and said it was a miracle, but everyone seemed to be recovered. Jacob asked who the strange looking doctor was, as he seemed to have been the one to save everybody. The doctor said that he didn't know him, and with all the panic, he never had a chance to ask him. He just came in, and pow – everything calmed down. He admitted that he sure was glad of his help. He paused momentarily before saying that they could go in to see their parents. Their mother was still asleep. Jacob headed for the chair beside her and sat down, staring at the floor. Laura went over to her father on the other bed. He was awake, and seemed capable of talking. After asking what had happened, her father asked, “Who one Best Picture last night?” She groaned, and said she didn't know. He commented: “I dozed off, I guess.” She shook her head, and thought to herself, “Leave it to Dad to think about a stupid movie show, instead of even asking about their mother, or about her or Jacob, for that matter.” She sighed and told him about the tainted wine. Only then did he become concerned about everyone else. She assured him that everyone was okay, and they all were going to be released that afternoon.

And so that ended the Academy Awards party for this year. Like the song goes, “Wasn't that a party!”

Seniors Luncheon A Huge ‘WOW’

Article & photo by Joan Brooks Seventy Five Seniors of all ages attended the 1st Annual Seniors Luncheon organized by the EDC of Wawa and the Municipality of Wawa. And following a wonderful luncheon prepared by Judy Page.

The event host Maury O’Neill introduced the Wawa Age Friendly agenda and introduced Wawa’s Mayor Ron Rody who welcomed the room filled with ‘Senior Power’ and referenced the $25,000 used to prepare the Senior’s survey.

One of Mayor Rody’s projects he is working very hard on and is proposing is a Seniors Retirement Residence. “A lot of communities have one and I know it can become a reality”. He indicated they have applied for significant funding to do a residential study which encompasses all the surrounding communities.

The EDC’s Maury O’Neill provided and overview of the Wawa Age Friendly Survey and asked the question ‘What can we do about the information that we can do better?’ That survey is available on the EDC website http://edcwawa.ca/wawa-age-friendlysurvey-results. “This is about calibrating longevity and thank you about celebrating with us today”.

Next on the agenda was Rochelle Parson, RN, the Care Coordinator with the North East Community Care Access Centre. She spoke to all the issues that surround keeping seniors within their home.

They provide personal support services. There is a process of referrals from your doctor. We do applications for all long term care facilities. You are welcome to visit her office on the lower floor of the Lady Dunn Health Centre, located next to the Physiotherapy Department.

Call 705-856-2335 and ask for the Community Care Access Center.

Wawa Red Cross’s Darlene Trovarello provided the services available to seniors in Wawa including: “Meals on Wheels” hot meals which consist of milk, soup, salad, a main plate and dessert all delivered by volunteers; transportations services both out of town and local; There is also a volunteer program which helps

with snow removal and help with home care such as cleaning, bathrooms, etc. Contact Darlene at 705-856-1946.

Next Mary Anne Pearson Co-Chair of the North Algoma Health Steering Committee provided an update on the North Algoma Health Needs Assessment Project. The purpose of the NAHNA project is to identify the health needs of our population to assist in developing a locally driven plan for health system improvement in the communities of Wawa, White River, Dubreuilville, Michipicoten First Nation, Hawk Junction, and Missanabie. They are now at the implementation stage. http://www.wawa.cc/2015/09/ north-algoma-health-needsassessment-project-update Next Carol Chalykoff and Bob Avis took the microphone and encouraged all seniors to become involved in the Wawa Goose Club. There was lots of laughter during this presentation. Carol shared what the club is all about and Bob encouraged us all to get involved. “We are not invisible. WE are on the main street. One of the most surprising things to me was that a lot of people don’t even know we are here. We have an excellent gathering, we can talk, play cards, it is only as good as we make it. We have a lot of living to do yet. Become a part of this organization! Stop by and say hello.”

Christine Rask and her Wawa Dance Fitness and Yoga gave us an update on all the opportunity in Wawa to exercise and become fit. She offers a variety of dynamic classes to suit various fitness levels and personal preferences.

These physical activities are designed to improve your flexibility, strength and cardiovascular capacity. -Our focus is to help you be healthy, have fun, stay safe and keep motivated. http://www.wawafdy.ca/ schedule---winter-2016-startsjan-4.html Prizes were given out during this enlightening event. And it concluded earlier than expected. No matter as individuals gathered to talk about all that they heard during the hour and a half, attesting to the content and the presenters.

Pathways

“Carrying the message of Love” with Joan Brooks

Universal Love Self-Love

“It is wonderful to claim that Love is the most important thing in the universe.

Theoretically we understand that Love has the power to overcome anything else, and that Love is the essence of all of creation. The question is how that beautiful celestial understanding actually translates into behavior in our every-day life. How do you express your Love on a consistent basis? Is your Love expressed primarily to your immediate family and friends? Do you share Love through donations to those in need via charities? Is your Love

primarily expressed through sharing your wisdom to help empower others to recognize how loveable they truly are?

Which is more powerful, a physical expression of Love or an energetic sharing of a higher frequency of Love? Does it really matter how you choose to express your love?” This was an excerpt from online blogger Ted Murray on Valentine’s Day. As I grow in Love I’m continually changing and living Love in ways I never imagined many years ago.

There was a time not so long ago that I truly wondered if

I was really ‘walking the talk’.

Perhaps the toughest aspect of this path I walk is renewing and accepting those parts of myself (some call it shadow work) that surface frequently in the most uncomfortable way. I’ve learned to swear (please laugh! Out loud if you have to!). God help me if I was ever caught swearing by my parents. Truthfully I never heard profanity until I joined the workforce, and I was the greatest little judge there ever was. Then I met and married a ‘sailor’ who used profanity as a simple description of most everything. And I cringed, but I accepted it as part of this new life. Oh yeah! Where did that get me? The most profanity I ever heard from my Dad was ‘damn’ and never from my step mother. I was a dutiful little Christian who went to church, taught Sunday School, memo-

services. And I find myself praying that the victims find it within themselves to forgive, not just the perpetrators, but, most importantly themselves.

I’ve said many times that what is in others, no matter how nasty, how depraved, is also within ourselves. And the sooner we can accept those nasty parts of ourselves how can we even think about Love of all that Is. Ye Gads what a journey.

I guess the real question isn’t so much how we choose to share Love. It is whether our hearts are overflowing with self-Love so that we are spontaneously exuding Love at all times and sharing it automatically, without even considering how and why it is being expressed. When we simply are Love then nothing else matters, does it? ‘til next time…this is Joan

How to beat Str8ts – Like Sudoku, no single number can repeat in any row or column. But... rows and columns are divided by black squares into compartments. These need to be filled in with numbers that complete a ‘straight’. A straight is a set of numbers with no gaps but can be in any order, eg [4,2,3,5]. Clues in black cells remove that number as an option in that row and column, and are not part of any straight. Glance at the solution to The solutions will be published here in the next issue. see how ‘straights’ are formed.

rized the catechism and was just a ‘good little girl’.

But Universal Love or God, had a different trajectory for me which involved Life in all its glory. I needed to learn about mental illness, about cancer, divorce, custody, death, unemployment, and so much more.

These were all incredibly tough lessons. But there was this amazing gift tucked inside my heart that led me on. The amazing Gift of Love. Wow! God knew all about abandonment, cruelty – sexual, physical, mental and spiritual; I had experienced them all and so much more. And it was my Love of Self, of God that led me on and literally telling me that I was okay. Love is all about learning how to live joyfully, blissfully and discovering magic.

February Update On North Algoma Health Steering Committee

The North Algoma Health Needs Assessment (NAHNA) is now in the Implementation stage of the project and after 2 years of consultations and a Health Needs Assessment in five communities, several recommendations for improvements have been identified.

The steering committee membership has now been confirmed and we have a year to implement improvements to our local health care.

This project has been in the works now since 2013 in various stages. The Seniors Solution Council was instrumental in bringing in the North East Rural Communities Framework for improved Health Care Coordination. This resulted in a Pilot Project for a Needs Assessment funded by the NE LHIN’s and supported by all the stakeholders in 5 communities. A project coordinator was hired to pull together a strategy that would give us a clear picture of where we were and where we want to be one year after completion of the Needs Assessment.

The North Algoma Health Steering Committee is made up of community stakeholders who have committed to oversee the successful implementation, within their own organisation, of recommendations put forward by the

Health Needs Assessment.

Monthly meetings of the steering committee are open to the public and we encourage anyone who has questions regarding the recommendations put forward, contact a representative on the committee or attend in person.

Meetings are held the first Wednesday of the month at 9:30 a.m. at the LDHC in the downstairs boardroom. At these meetings reports from each stakeholder’s issues are received and progress is assessed using a common tool to identify viability and progression into implementation (or at this point, detriments to achieving success are identified.) For example, the Seniors Solution Council has taken on the problems of travel grants for distances just under the 100km cut-off. This is an issue that rural communities with no local hospital have to deal with regularly.

The council would work with the municipality and lobby the appropriate agencies to find solutions.

There are several issues identified for Wawa and area which can be found in the results of the North Algoma Health Needs Assessment on the municipal website, the LDHC website and at the local library.

THE HAPPY MEDIUM BY CHRISTINE DAVISON

For the week of February 17th to February 23rd, 2016 Is your birthday this week? You are sought after and admired for your beauty and talents. Your intellectual gifts often assist others as much as they help you too. You may be given leadership positions and rewards due to your family, partnerships, and abilities. Luck follows travel.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Happy Birthday Pisces! Pisces is known for its sensitivity, sixth sense, artistry and spiritual, dreamy, fey ways. Your passions have been lit and luckily there are many who wish to fan those flames, especially someone you may have met during the late winter or early spring of last year. Are you ready?

ARIES (March 21-April 19): There may be more to you than you can comprehend. Follow through with promises lest you feel mired by late deadlines. Still waters run deep. This is the perfect time to reconnect with family members or friends you may have neglected in your pursuit of happiness in other directions. Burnt bridges can/ should be rebuilt.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Trusting an old friend might be easier to do sometimes than trusting an old lover. This is an excellent time to invest in property. Good or surprising news may come from overseas concerning a partner or loved one.

Past secrets will be revealed and hidden wealth may be uncovered.

You’re very attractive to others.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Romance is in the air. Look to an earthy or fiery sort to find more information about who your secret admirer may be-Someone has become rather fond of you. Is this what you have been waiting for? Someone might ask you to dance if you go out on the town with your friends. Dream big at work and at play or go home!

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Your words’ meanings will be known by everyone you encounter. People will be magnetically attracted to you. Keep in mind that words aren’t everything.

Actions will need to follow at a later time. Attempt to make sure that you come off as someone who is humble and kind instead of someone who wants to brag.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): There’s been a melancholy air to you of late. If you look for something that was lost, you may never find it.

Hidden things may come to light if you move out of the way. Don’t interfere unnecessarily. There’s too much worry going around at your workplace to make any sense or to do anyone any good. Share your pride.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Ask the right questions at the right times. There could soon be positive changes concerning your workmates or your occupation.

Friends and coworkers will look up to you with admiration and respect. A difficult or complicated situation at work or involving customer service may turn out the best for everyone involved.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t let others make excuses. Matters with siblings matter, period. Your favourite family members love you very much and may be feeling more than a little neglected.

They may also feel as if you’ve been favoured in a family situation. Speak up now and protect innocent people. Don’t allow for any sugar-coating.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Trust in your ability to see things that others do not. If you try to force someone to see your point of view, then you may not succeed. People have been walking on eggshells around you as a matter of fact. Allow loved ones to support and comfort you instead of spurning their affection.

Someone deeply cares for you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Acts that seem futile at first, will pay off for you later on when people see how strong, stubborn, and courageous you are. Passions may flare in relation to home and family or the past. Try to keep a level head and heart and those restless or unfocused energies may find a more suitable (and fun) place elsewhere.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It’s a good idea to begin spring cleaning a little early this year.

Please don’t allow yourself to be a slave to routine. You have the strength, curiosity, and determination to move forward. A flirtation from late last year may come into focus once again. Is this true love? Only time will tell. Be open and kind.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You will feel better letting go and loving someone, than if you hold onto hatred and negativity.

Forgive someone unworthy. Your questions concerning money and other financial needs will not be answered for the next few weeks to come. Trust your intuition about the choices you have made and try to remain patient.

Students Raise $325 For Haiti Fund

to $7,000. It’s an ongoing thing.”

The low Canadian dollar has taken a big bite out of Paulette’s effort to complete the project, and that includes the enormous contribution by Paulette herself.

“If I could just put the money that I contribute, the kids are wearing shoes, they have clothing and now more kids can go to school and be fed. There is no price on that! There is none! But I’m telling people I am $5,000 short and then the exchange brought me $7,000 short again. Like when can we ever get there and be there. Circumstances are beyond my control. Who would have thought that our loonie would drop to $ .41 on the dollar?”

Haiti officially marked the fiveyear anniversary of the Jan. 12,

uting from their hearts. Here is what some of the students wanted to say. Unfortunately I apologize as I was unable to include all their comments: Marin – “I think that Haiti needs the money more than I do. I just like to help!”

Odessa – “I want to help Haiti because when I saw pictured of Haiti I knew they needed our help!” Nevaea – “I want to help Haiti because it is a poor country and they need lots of money!”

“It is nearing completion,” added Paulette. “Next week they are going to buy the oven, bring it back, the (bread) mixture, and some of the appliances. We are so close. It’s going to happen.

I’m hoping by May, it will be up and running. The exchange set us back two months, and I lost close

Article & photo by Joan Brooks The Wawa for Haiti fund is very close to meeting their goal of $25,000 established three and one half years ago. Paulette Albert first visited Haiti at that time along with several other Northern Ontario friends and was so heart broken by what she found; she knew she had to do something. The $25,000 would help the Foyer d’Accvueil Lasallien pour Enfants orphanage in Port de Paix with the building of a bakery. Since that time there have been several local fund raising efforts all aimed at making this incredible Labor of Love happen.

Please note the rolled coin on the floor at the center of the student gathering and those students holding jars of money. They filled close to four pint jars with coin.
