EASTER

News – Arnprior and area’s volunteer and business stars were shining bright on a special evening last week. The Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce, Town of Arnprior and Township of McNab-Braeside, hosted the 10th annual Business Achievement Awards and Gala reception April 10 at the Nick Smith Centre in Arnprior. (see Page 3, 4 and 5). Arnprior Mayor David Reid presented the volunteer of the year award to Doreen Nicholas. It was a fitting time to present the award, said Reid, during National Volunteer Week, April 612. He thanked all the community’s volunteers for their continued work. “The Town of Arnprior appreciates the involvement of volunteers in our community and has been celebrating the many volunteers that contribute their time and talent to the Town of Arnprior in an annual event.�

Arnprior council declares downtown BIA dormant, for now Derek Dunn derek.dunn@Metroland.com

Wishing all our readers a wonderful Easter weekend.

News – After many years struggling to boost interest, a downtown business group was rendered dormant Monday evening. At the regular meeting of Arnprior council the business improvement area (BIA) was spared dissolution, which would have made reconstitution efforts

difficult to impossible, but it is now effectively mothballed. The group was responsible for beautification efforts such as flower pots outside downtown businesses. Mayor David Reid would have preferred the BIA stay active to offer a united voice when it came time to making decisions in the downtown revitalization program over the next few years.

The BIA since its 1984 inception collected funds through mandatory fees. It has about $80,000 in reserves. “BIA’s are a merchant-based initiative and can be successful and viable,� Reid said. “I think it’s important to leave it in a dormant state if the merchants come back.� Council (Mark Willmer was absent) voted in favour of staff’s dormancy

recommendation, agreeing to bring it back “provided there is demonstrated adequate interest from the members� of the downtown business community. Businesses have not been charged fees this year and won’t be. The $80,000 will remain in a bank account, much of it invested in GICs and other conservative investments.

What started out as a language assignment requiring students to write a newspaper article on a chosen environmental issue, has really made students think more critically on how their personal choices impact the environment. This has sparked many to form an Eco Club where they are working on putting some of their ideas into action. Key environmental issues such as over-consumerism, plastic water bottle waste, and single-use products are just a few things that have been discussed so far. Included here are two articles that demonstrate just how keen students are to make a difference.

If you think this sounds like a lot of work, it truly isn’t. Think- first, really think about what you are looking at buying. Do you really need this? Will it last you for a long time, or just break quickly and be useless? Make sure that the product you want is suited correctly to your needs, and make sure that it isn’t just an impulse-buy. Second, research- researching can be as simple as flipping over the tag to see where it was imported from. If the product was made locally, this is the best for the environment. You now know what every single product that you buy has an impact and a story.

Every day we make a lot of “garbage�. Now you may ask what’s wrong with that? There is nothing wrong with throwing things out, but it becomes a problem when you put recyclables and compostable materials in the trash. There is an easy way to help this problem. It’s simple. You can separate your trash into compost and recyclables to help reduce the amount of garbage in the landfills. Over 60% of what we put into our landfills is compostable material. The average family produces about 650 lbs of compost each year says a website that focuses on agricultural education (www.extension.pus.edu).

News - The Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce gave out some first-time awards this year at its 10th annual Business Achievement Awards and Gala reception April 10 at the Nick Smith Centre. The Business of the Year and President’s Awards were back, but the chamber has altered the rest of the awards this year to give the process a fresh appeal. PRESIDENT’S AWARD

This year’s GACC president’s award winner is Arnprior Regional Health’s Partners in Caring foundation. “In 2005, Arnprior had a problem,” said chamber president Wes Schnob. “We needed $13 million, $3.5 (million) of which were to be raised locally to renovate the ER wing and provide new equipment for the Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital.” Former Mayor Tom Sullivan, Dr. Chochu and others stepped up the plate and formed the Partners in Caring foundation. The campaign to raise the $3.5 million was successful. “Many thought the foundation was set up just to handle

that campaign, but that was not the case,” said Schnob. “They were here to stay and support the hospital and the Grove in their ongoing needs that are not funded by the government.” Partners in Caring’s successful campaigns include the highly successful 2012-13 digital mammography fundraiser. The foundation consists of 10 board members with a mission to buy equipment needed for the hospital and Grove Nursing Home to keep residents close to home. “They also provide a bursary program which offers financial support for staff members of the hospital and Grove so they can upgrade their skills through training,” explained Schnob. Annual fundraisers include the Christmas tree lighting campaign and the Knights in the Maritimes dinner, which is coming up May 3 “I think I can speak for everyone when I say that we are very thankful to have such a foundation here in Arnprior and thank you to all the volunteers and board members that make up Partners in Caring,” said Schnob. Foundation president Lori Van Wyk acknowledged the work of manager of communications and fund development

Wendy Knechtel and foundation assistant Karen Smith. “Special thanks to Wendy and Karen who keep the ship sailing straight,” said Van Wyk. She thanked the public for its support. “Partners in Caring would not exist without the support of our community,” she said. BUSINESS OF THE YEAR

Business of the year award winner is Nev’s Heating and Cooling, presented by chamber director Julie Brown. The award, explained Brown, goes to a business leader that has demonstrated excellence in business operations, including financial management, environmental practices, customer service, sales and marketing and has a strong track record of community involvement and support. Nevin Young opened the company in 2005 on his own and within six months hired his first employee. “For five years Nevin and one employee worked out of Nevin’s house on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week,” said Brown. Then came the hiring of an office manager and a move to a storefront location on John

Young thanked his employees and customers. He pointed out staffers who had joined him on stage and several in the audience. “I’d like to thank all of them and thank you for supporting us over the years,” he said. YOUNG ENTREPRENEUR

The chamber’s awards took on a new look this year and included brand new honours. Director Murray Hughes

announced the winners of the young entrepreneur/community involvement under 30 are Greg Vanderlyp and Tanys McFadden, owners of Arnprior’s two Subway restaurants. The honour, explained Hughes, is awarded to outstanding individuals under 30 years of age, who have started a new business or have been actively involved in the community. “This year’s recipients came to Arnprior in December of 2010 after selling their

business of three years in Kingston. Both come from small communities and prefer this atmosphere to operate,” said Hughes. Vanderlyp and McFadden bought their first store in Arnprior in 2010 and the second in June 2013. Hughes explained the couple is very excited with local growth and the future prospects for business. Commitment to success is evident, said Hughes with each of the owners working

60-80 hours per week. “This led to their plans for marriage to be put on hold until both stores are fully functional, said Hughes. The restaurants employ 12 full-time and as many as 10 part-time employees. Commitment to community is also evident. “They contribute to the community in a variety of ways, supporting the Unity Run for the Special Olympics, sponsoring free skating at the Nick Smith Centre and providing prizes for many events such as golf tournaments and school fun fairs,” said Hughes.

Presenter Lynn Grinstead explained the innovation award for visual creativity is a new honour bestowed upon a business that consistently strives to have an inviting and attractive exterior that is well maintained and appropriate for the type of business. “Window displays, where applicable, are fresh and seasonal and signage is simple, easy to understand and looks attractive,” explained Grinstead. Jim Wright of Antiques Etc. and The Lighthouse Centre is this year’s winner. Grinstead said there were several nominees for this new award. “There are several businesses that have gone to great strides to create an inviting and well-maintained exterior of their business. This award is not just for our storefront businesses, this award can be for any business in town that takes those extra steps to create an attractive well maintained exterior, and, therefore, we are looking forward to many more nominations for this award in the years to come,” said Grinstead. “Our recipient of this award tonight was nominated for his efforts to create that attractive exterior for not only one business, but two,” she said.

Wright expressed his thanks. “Thank you to the chamber of commerce, Arnprior and McNab-Braeside,” he said. “It’s been a pleasure to be in Arnprior for the last eight years.” SKILLED TRADE

The skilled trade business award, presented by Gib McMullin, was awarded to Creative Edge owners Ron and Cheryl Hanniman. The company, founded by Hanniman, a master floral designer, in 1997, has been a leading special event supplier in the Ottawa area for more than a decade. “Creative Edge Studio has set the standard in the Ottawa area for design and customer service,” said McMullin. “Ron, one of the leaders in the field, has designed for hundreds of high profile events in Ottawa and across Canada.” His son Stephen joined the business in 2008 and Creative Edge has had the pleasure of working with hundreds of Canada’s top companies, many international businesses and many different government departments and charitable organizations. “From trade shows, embas-

sies, weddings and charitable events, Creative Edge has done it all,” said McMullin. Hanniman spoke on behalf of his son Steve and wife Cheryl and thanked the chamber for the award. “We were very surprised to get it,” he said. NEW BUSINESS

New business award winner Sweet and Sassy Co. owner Jacqueline Turner was not in attendance but had given presenter Rick Welch a thank you note to be read at the event. The new business award goes to a company that has been up and running for up to three years that has shown exceptional performance and financial viability, explained Welsh. The many business owners in the room can attest to the commitment and sacrifice required to run a successful business, said Welsh. In her prepared statement, Turner said the secret to Sweet and Sassy’s success has been adapting the business to suit demand. “I can’t even tell you how great it is to be part of downtown Arnprior, not only do we get the privilege of serving our local people but also to welcome guests from all over. Just the other day we received an order from New Zealand and we’ve had calls from New York City and London to name a few,” said Turner.

News – Continued good work and community support was recognized in the Township of McNab-Braeside’s awards at the 10th annual Business Achievement Awards and Gala Reception April 10. The event was jointly hosted by the Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce, the Town of Arnprior and the township. William (Willy) McMillan is the winner of this year’s agriculture appreciation award. The honour recognizes leadership, good citizenship, involvement in the community, environmental awareness and promotion of agricultural safety, explained Deputy Mayor Christine Blimkie. “This year’s recipient has certainly been a huge contributor in all of these areas while remaining quietly behind the scenes,” said Blimkie. Willy and his wife Edna have been farming in the area since the early 1960s and are anchors

in the agricultural community, said Blimkie. Cattle and crops are the focus at the McMillan farm. “I asked Willy ‘how many acres do you farm?’” said Blimkie. “His answer: ‘Too many.’” In addition to farming, the family ran a sand and gravel business. “This business venture provided many a youth in the area a sense of belonging through sponsorship of the McMillan Sand and Gravel softball teams and broomball teams,” said Blimkie. McMillan also had a successful harness racing career. “This family is what we hope our residents of McNab-Braeside aspire to be: good company, a better neighbour, help where we can and appreciate the land,” said Blimkie. McMillan thanked the crowd in a quiet, unassuming manner. “Thanks very much for all of this,” he said. Inter Aero Inc. picks up this year’s McNab-Braeside business appreciation award hon-

ours. Company president/owner Colin Kearney recognized a need for contract labour in the aviation industry and with the help of his sister Deborah Hillier Inter Aero was established in 1996. DRAMATIC EVOLUTION

The business has evolved dramatically since then, explained Blimkie, and the McNab-Braeside division was created in 2012. “Today Inter Aero is an approved maintenance provider and a maintenance repair organization licensed with Transport Canada,” she said. The company fabricates, repairs, overhauls and modifies aircraft components to support the aircraft maintenance operation at Pierre Elliott Trudeau Airport in Montreal and services both an aircraft customer base and contract customer base. The local division also provides commercial precision fabrication and machining for customers outside of the avia-

tion sector and recently added commercial signage to their list of services. Inter Aero is involved with Arnprior and District High School, with staff working as mentors and the company providing material and equipment to the school’s robotics program. Inter Aero is also involved with Algonquin College’s coop placement program and Kearney serves on the college’s manufacturing and engineering technician advisory board. “Inter Aero is also a huge supporter of the Cans for Cats, where they donate off-cuts of aluminum and stainless steel, which benefits the humane society,” said Blimkie. Kearney expressed his thanks. “On behalf of the Inter Aero team, I’d like to thank McNabBraeside for the recognition,” he said. “For two years now we’ve been in McNab-Braeside and it’s been a great experience so far.”

News – A McNab-Braeside woman is following up attending a protest in Renfrew over rising Hydro rates by circulating petitions all over the area. Laurie Coggan is encouraging people to sign the petition urging the lowering of energy rates. She has placed the petitions in several locations around Arnprior. The petition calls for the Ontario premier and minister of energy to reduce the waste and duplication in Ontario’s energy section and take other necessary steps to lower the cost of electricity so that Ontario’s electricity prices are competitive with other jurisdictions. Coggan says that people on fixed incomes and on minimum wage are under great duress be-

cause of the rising electricity rates. The minimum wage is “an insult” to working people, she said. She said reaction to her petitions is positive. “Everyone was ecstatic to get them … I ran out of copies,” she said. She anticipates collecting them and taking them to a planned hydro rate protest at Queen’s Park. Among the locations for the petitions are Peeples at the Mall, Metro, First Choice Haircutters, the Arnprior Legion, Jim’s Restaurant, RONA, Dale’s Buy Back and the home support office. People are “sick and tired” of the government not doing anything to keep costs down, she said, adding that if the public doesn’t speak up soon natural gas prices will be as high as electricity.

News – Arnprior Council has unanimously agreed to change bylaws making it easier for the Winners Circle development to go ahead. Canadian Tire and a Montreal developer are ready to build on the property – across from the No Frills parking lot - that has remained empty but with water and sewer lines for many years. During the April 14 meeting, council heard arguments similar to those presented at a recent public meeting from staff in favour of the development and a competing local developer wanting

it delayed. “We are confident council should move forward with these bylaws,” said town planner Robin Smith, after assuring council that a retail impact study and traffic study are reliable. White Lake Investments opposed the move, saying the “proposed official plan and zoning bylaw amendment are premature.” Mayor David Reid noted that the square footage is almost identical to what was proposed on the site many years ago. “In my mind what’s in front of council is … what I would support,” Reid said. Mark Willmer was absent.

Keep BIA alive, urges council candidate Continued from front

The interim board of management is comprised of town clerk Maureen Spratt, financial services manager Renee Couture, and marketing and economic development officer Lindsay Wilson. Their sole power is to hold board elections. The BIA has been inactive for two years, struggling to find enough volunteer board members. The town held two meetings recently in an attempt to generate interest. Not enough members showed up. Prior to that a sub-group tried twice to dissolve the BIA, in 2004 and 2007, but narrowly missed the mark. Doug Smith, who once owned a business at

Arnprior Mayor David Reid presents Doreen Nicholas with the town’s Volunteer of the Year award at the Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce awards gala April 10.

Super volunteer honoured by town Continued from front

Nicholas embodies the old saying ‘Those that can do, do … those that can do more, volunteer,’ said Reid. Originally from Round Lake, Nicholas moved to Arnprior when she was 16 years old and went on to raise eight children with husband Roy.

A full table of family members attended the gala to see her honoured. Once a full-time employee at Kenwood and then Dow Badische and a one-time waitress, volunteering became Doreen’s lifeline when she lost her husband in 2006.

Her role at the auxiliary includes work in the gift shop, Opportunity Shop, Grove Nursing

Home and portering patients as an in-hospital volunteer. She cooks monthly breakfasts for seniors in the hospital among her many tasks. The mayor outlined Nicholas’ organization of the Hospital Auxiliaries Association of Ontario’s Eastern Region Spring Conference. “Over 260 participants from Eastern Ontario came to Arnprior for one full day of workshops, seminars and award presentations, which was an overwhelming success.” Nicholas is also an active member of the Catholic Women’s League and is a Eucharistic minister. Her church duties include work with the kitchen staff at fundraising events, funerals and bingos. She volunteers at the Arnprior Legion and is also a member of the Golden Valley Seniors. Nicholas’ daughter, Gail Obst, joined her on stage to present a bouquet of flowers. Nicholas was touched by the honour. “I just want to say thank you and it’s an honour to receive this award,” she said.

News – Alex Staye’s family points out that the TOSH Steakhouse and Bar, victim of a fire April 7, was never a dance hall. TOSH was once the Staye family

home, not the dance hall. Staye’s dance hall, known as the Mayfair, was located on the family’s property in the vicinity of where the McDonald’s Restaurant now sits.

the corner of John and Elgin streets, has lobbied town hall over the past few months to ensure the BIA is not disbanded for fear of difficulties in bringing it back. He argued that a weakened BIA “would send a strong signal of failure” to outside investors and block grants from higher levels of government. He blamed the loss on communication failures within the group and municipal and other governments. Smith, a council candidate in October’s election, suggested less than a month ago to pass a $1 budget to keep the BIA alive. Coun. Lynn Grinstead said on numerous occasions that council has no responsibility over the BIA except to deal with bylaws the board brings forward.

Scrap the Fair Elections Act

T

he most serious flaw among the many, many flaws in the Fair Elections Act is its author, MP Pierre Poilievre. The entire exercise should be scrapped because he is unfit to draw up such a bill, let alone maintain his position as democratic reform minister. Poilievre’s unprecedented attack on Chief Electoral Officer Marc Mayrand’s integrity, impartiality, and motives – saying the referee shouldn’t be wearing a team jersey – was compounded when he claimed Mayrand is trying to pad his power and budget. “He wants more power, a bigger budget and less accountability,� Poilievre told the Senate legal and constitutional affairs committee on April 8. It’s a baseless claim, of course. It even runs contrary to Mayrand’s past actions (always a good indicator of future actions). Instead, Poilievre’s bill reveals his party wants a bigger war chest, less accountability and more power to win elections by preventing non-Conservatives voters from casting their ballot. It encourages bigger contributions to larger parties by making campaign financing loopholes, creating less accountability from a weakened Elections Canada that uncovered the in-and-out scandal and other dirty tricks.

Mayrand aside, Poilievre also levelled baseless attacks against provincial chief electoral officers, scholars, public intellectuals, columnists, experts from various countries around the world, and protesters armed with petitions delivered to 25 MPs’ offices in Canada, including his own. Perhaps conservative Preston Manning, who recently criticized the bill, is next. The point is that elections experts are attacked en masse and without cause by Poilievre. He’s not politely pointing out a difference of opinion he has with critics – he’s questioning their motives. Since he is presumably an expert on elections, as he is the democratic reform minister and spent some time thinking about the bill before drafting it, that is reason enough to disqualify him from penning it. Elections experts, according to his reasoning, ought to leave the Fair Elections Act up to someone with less specialized knowledge and, say, more common sense. Poilievre has proven that he is not intellectually capable of addressing arguments against the bill. Personal attacks are the surest sign of a flawed intelligence. It’s time to scrap the Fair Elections Act.

Message to the owner of a Show of respect by youth dog killed on the highway speaks well for Arnprior To the Editor: On the morning of Wednesday, April 2, I stopped on the side of Hwy. 417 eastbound near the Kinburn overpass. I had heard via the Ottawa and Valley Lost Pet Network (OVLPN) that there was a small black and white dog that had been hit the day before and was deceased. I hated the thought of it lying there on the cold road, as well as wondered about who could be missing it. I pulled over as cars and 18-wheelers flew by, and waited for a break in traffic before running out, wrapping the dog in a blanket and placing it in my car. I brought him to the Arnprior Humane Society where they scanned him for a microchip, but he did not have one. (I filed reports with the local vet clinics, animal control and the Ottawa Humane Society.) Arnprior Humane Society was kind enough to transport him to the vet clinic for safekeeping while we tried to find the owner. Several days later, I was notified through the OVLPN that the owner had

been found as he was canvassing the area where the dog went missing. It was a very sad story that I will not elaborate on here. I wanted to contact the gentleman, but due to privacy policies, neither the shelter nor the vet were able to give me his contact information. So, I am hoping that someone reading this will know who this man is, and tell him the following: I am so deeply sorry for the loss of your dog. I wish I knew his name. I have thought about him every day since that day. I want you to know that I wrapped him in a blanket, I stroked him and spoke to him when he was safe in my car. He was lovingly treated by both the shelter and vet staff. I wish this had not happened, but am glad that you at least have closure. I had wanted to contact you to tell you this in person, but I am hoping that somehow this message will reach you. Natalie Gaanderse Braeside

To the Editor: This past week I attended the funeral of a friend in Arnprior. It was my first visit to the community and I was impressed with what I experienced during my short visit. One small experience stands out in my mind and I felt compelled to pass it along. After the service at the funeral home on John Street, relatives of the deceased carried the casket to a waiting hearse. As I followed the procession down the stairs, I noticed three

ber of us and we appreciated the empathy for the grieving family members. That small gesture spoke volumes and it left me with such a positive impression of the community. To those young men, congratulations on your mature deportment and your show of class. You should be commended for representing your community well. Ken Warden Kitchener

Professionalism appreciated singed. I ran upstairs to call 9-1-1 back and let them know I had solved the problem. The lady then cancelled my call and I reassured her I was okay. Only minutes later the firemen arrived to make sure that everything was okay. They were very kind, as I felt a total moron. It is great to live in a community where the support system is available because my alarms are tested by the fire department each year, and because of the dedication of the firemen, this incident was taken care of fast and effectively. Thank you.

What a great idea, people filled the place. There was something for every one. The new manager is doing a great job. It’s clean and fresh looking and with events like this buskers festival, that is just smart use of a facility that Arnprior already has. The weather outside was a bit dirty, but inside was great. The talented entertainers were fantastic. The kids

To the Editor: I would like to thank the fire department and the lady who received my call to 9-1-1 on Thursday afternoon April 3. I was baking upstairs in my kitchen when my alarm sounded. At first I thought it was my cooking, only to realize it was the alarm in the basement. In panic mode, I raced downstairs to find my basement filled with smoke. Not thinking to check for the origin of where the smoke came from, I ran upstairs, barely breathing and dialed 9-1-1. The lady on the other end was quick to respond to my emergency. Getting up more courage, I went to investigate more, only to find a sweater drying on my gas stove, which had now turned on. I removed the sweater to see it was

A heartfelt thank you Province should end to Hospice volunteers inhumane bear hunt

R0012642628

To the Editor: Since opening in January 2008, Hospice Renfrew has provided care, comfort, and compassion to residents and their families with the committed support of many volunteers. Volunteers at Hospice Renfrew engage in many essential tasks that help to keep the Hospice running and allow the Hospice to achieve our mission: • bakers turn out wonderful “goodiesâ€? in the kitchen, spreading the smell of comfort and home throughout the Hospice; • gardeners plant, weed, and water, encouraging colourful flowers and grasses to greet all who come our way; • receptionists receive family and friends, answer the phone, and generally provide a welcoming face to those who arrive at our door; • support volunteers provide a compassionate presence to residents, their family and friends, providing care and comfort to all

in need; • our grief and bereavement team extend our care and comfort to the next of kin beyond the time that residents are with us; • other volunteers decorate for the changing seasons, provide office support, and generally do “whatever is neededâ€? to run a home-like residence such as Hospice Renfrew; • a legion of other volunteers and friends help Hospice participate in the community life of Renfrew County and help us raise much needed funds , thereby allowing Hospice Renfrew to meet the needs of our residents and their families. To all the volunteers of Hospice Renfrew, the staff of Hospice Renfrew wants to send out a heartfelt thank you. Without our volunteers, the Hospice would not be the caring refuge that it is for so many people. Diane Litchfield Coordinator of volunteer resources Renfrew Hospice

To the Editor: Wanted Dead or Live. The Ontario Liberal government under pressure from the hunting lobbyists have allowed the spring bear hunt to begin this spring in eight different areas in the province. This action will now allow hunters to hunt black bears. Bears are the only big game animal with dependent young that are hunted in the spring. Natural Resources Minister David Oraziett’s (Liberal party) states the program will ban hunting cubs or female bears with cubs. Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources report 2009 found 34 per cent of bears killed in the spring are female and an average of 17 per cent of those are adult with cubs. The orphaned cubs die of dehydration, starvation and predation. Minister Orazietti, according to your own Ministry, banning spring bear hunting for female bears and cubs doesn’t work. In the eight areas where the Liberals have opened the spring hunt, the black bears will be hunted and chased by hunting dogs for a total of five months each year. Given the fact that bears hibernate for the winter, this pro-hunting action the Liberals have done will give little peace for the bears.

Baiting and killing hungry bears in the spring is like shooting fish in a barrel. Killing these animals is not a solution as other bears will move into the vacant areas resulting in the continued killing of bears and the orphaning of their cubs. The Minister should reinstate completely the excellent bear wise program in these areas and also the rest of the province. If the Minister is determined to continue this barbaric ‘hunt’, he should allocate significant funds to those who are licenced rehabilitators so they can care for the injured and orphaned cubs. If the Liberals don’t stop the hunt, then we should vote them out. If you oppose the spring bear hunt please contact your MPP, Premier Kathleen Wynne at Kathleen.

OPEN AND OUTDATED BUILDING PERMITS The Town of Mississippi Mills has recently hired a Contract Building Inspector to deal with the large number of open and outdated permits within the Town. The Inspector’s main focus will be to assist property owners with open permits to achieve compliance and ensure that all Ontario Building Code requirements are met. As the regulating body, the Town has a duty of care to ensure that all required inspections are completed, safety measures are met, and all open permits are closed in accordance with the re-

quirements of the Ontario Building Code. Property owners with open permits are encouraged to gather all documentation on their respective project(s) and associated inspections ahead of time to assist with timely closure.

NATURE

The early bird gets the ‌ Lifestyle - What a difference a week makes! It seems we have gone from the dead of winter to full blown spring in the blink of an eye. Chipmunks are bounding around stuffing their cheeks with seeds fallen from winter birdfeeders. Female wasps that have survived the winter are busily looking for recesses in which to build their paper nests. And a chorus of bird song now greets the breaking of the day. As most of you know, American Robins stayed behind in good numbers this winter due to the large fruit crops of last fall. However, most of the singing members of that species are newly arrived from wintering sites farther south.

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way Joining their cheerful songs are the stuttering melodies of Song Sparrows and the pugilistic songs of Red-winged Blackbirds.

Tree Swallows readily nest in bird houses.

PHOTOS BY MICHAEL RUNTZ

Not all new arrivals sing with the same celebratory gusto. The vocal offerings of Common Grackles are not unlike the complaints of a rusty gate. A little more pleasant is the name-giving, repetitious songs of Eastern Phoebes. These flycatchers have just come back and if their distinctive sounds do not reveal their identity, the their tail wagging certainly should. But some returning birds make very little if any sound. Great Blue Herons utter only the occasional deep croak while Turkey Vultures remain silent. Tree Swallows are also just back and their soft twitters are best heard at close range. Although these speedy insecteaters look nothing like Great Blue Herons or Eastern Phoebes, or sound like those other birds, they do share one thing in common with them. The swallows have returned as early as possible in order to achieve a common goal. And that is to find a good nest site. Phoebes stick their nests in rock crevices and often nooks and crannies under bridges and porch roofs are found to be suitable substitutes Herons place their haphazard stick nests atop dead trees surrounded by water, which they often find in beaver ponds.

The first flycatchers to return are Eastern Phoebes, which sing their names and wag their tails. Tree Swallows also like dead trees, but they build their nests inside a cavity either created by woodpeckers or where decay had eaten away the wood of a tree. Great Blue Herons are able to find food in any bit of open water that houses fish, so their early return doesn’t pose much hardship for them. But Phoebes and Tree Swallows only eat flying insects, so obviously coming back later in the spring would benefit them. So why do they not do that? The answer is simple: a shortage of good nest sites.

For all three birds, their type of nest site is not found in large quantities, so if they came back later, all good sites could be taken. Therefore, they are programmed to return as early as possible to get the upper hand on attaining a proper site. That is not unlike the way many people stand in line for many hours before opening time when a store offers incredible sale prices. So just like bargain hunters, many birds operate on a first-come, first-served basis! The Nature Number is 613-3872503; email is mruntz@start.ca.

Flood warning for Ottawa, Mississippi rivers john.carter@metroland.com

DEREK DUNN/METROLAND

in the 1998 and 2002 floods. On the Mississippi River from Innisville to Galetta, levels continue to increase and are expected to rise 10–15 cm before they peak later this week. Levels in the river from Carleton Place through to Galetta responded quickly to the rainfall over the weekend. The river is not expected to peak until the end of next week

with conditions slightly above those experienced in 2008. Daily water levels and flows are available on the MVCA website at www.mvc.on.ca/water-levels. Environment Canada bulletins can be found at http:// weather.gc.ca/. The Surface Water Monitoring Centre public webpage can be found at www. ontario.ca/flooding.

News – The spring melt and rising waters have prompted Ontario Power Generation (OPG) to warn people to stay clear of hydroelectric dams and generating stations this Easter holiday weekend. “With the arrival of spring and the warming temperatures, ice near a dam or hydroelectric generating station can be thinner than ice in other locations because of changing water flows beneath it,” explains OPG’s senior vicepresident of Hydro-Thermal Operations Mike Martelli. “The areas around our generating stations and dams are clearly marked – please obey all warning signs, and respect fences and barriers. ‘Stay Clear! Stay Safe!’ is our message.” The waterways near OPG facilities are not safe places for recreation at any time of the year. The arrival of spring means warmer weather and rapidly changing conditions on lakes and rivers, he added. “Please, exercise caution when near waterways and stay off the ice as it is unstable at this time of year.” To learn more about safety near dams and hydroelectric generating stations, visit http://www.opg.com/ about/safety/water-safety.

CARRIER OF THE MONTH!

News – The warmer weather and rain has prompted authorities to issue flood watches for residents in the Ottawa, Mississippi and Clyde river watersheds. However, the expected heavy rainfall predicted for last weekend didn’t materialize in most areas and cold weather early in the week has slowed the melt, tempering concerns somewhat. Nevertheless, the Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA) upgraded the flood watch to a flood warning Monday for the area from Dalhousie Lake to Galetta on the Mississippi Rriver. Rainfall over the weekend coupled with the remainder of the snowmelt has caused flows and levels to increase significantly, reports the MVCA. Additional rainfall on Tuesday and Wednesday was expected to exacerbate the conditions across the eastern portion of the Mississippi River watershed. The Ministry of Natural Resources’ Pembroke office advised area residents that a Watershed Conditions Statement - Flood Outlook is in effect in the district. Residents along the

Ottawa River and its tributaries are encouraged to keep a close watch on conditions, regularly check updated messages and stay away from fast-moving rivers and streams. The MNR points out that stream flows across the southern region of the province are moderately high due to recent and continuing snow melt and rainfall. Environment Canada also recommends residents, especially those with waterfront property, keep a close watch on local conditions and weather forecasts. Residents are strongly urged to stay off all ice covered water bodies and to remind children about the dangers of playing on or near ice covered surfaces or fast flowing water in ditches and smaller creeks. The Carp River continues to recede and is not expected to increase substantially for the remainder of this spring. On Dalhousie Lake water levels have increased about 35 centimetres over the weekend and were expected to increase at least another 20–25 cm this week depending on rainfall over that same time frame. Levels are expected to be higher than those experienced in 2008 but about 20 cm below those experienced

Students and staff at Arnprior District High School joined peers around the world in celebrating Day of Pink on April 9. It is an annual day of awareness for communities around the world to celebrate diversity and challenge bullying in all its forms, including homophobic and transphobic bullying. The Day of Pink got its start in Nova Scotia when two straight high school students saw a gay student wearing a pink shirt being bullied. The two students intervened, but wanted to do more to prevent homophobic and transphobic bullying. They decided to wear pink shirts in solidarity with their classmate and, a few days later, got everyone at school to share in this expression of support by wearing pink to class. By creating a “sea of pink” in their school, these students helped to trigger an international movement to challenge homophobic and transphobic bullying in schools. Since then, the Day of Pink has continued to spread to schools and workplaces around the world and has drawn attention to the tragic impact of bullying and related teen suicides. Above, ADHS shows off its own sea of pink.

Arnprior District High School student council member Mike Clarke shows off the handprint wall in the school cafeteria that was part of a fundraiser for CHEO’s mental health unit. Last fall, students raised about $550 by having students make a donation in order to put their handprint and signature on the wall. The fundraiser was held in conjunction with DIFD (Do it for Daron), a youth-driven initiative focused on raising awareness and inspiring conversations about youth mental health. DIFD was created by friends and family of Daron Richardson who lost her life to suicide at the age of 14. DIFD supports programs and initiatives aimed at transforming youth mental health. Pink and purple paint was used on the handprint wall as pink is associated with anti-bullying and purple was Richardson’s favrourite colour. The ADHS initiative was organized by the student council and spearheaded by Hailey Barr.

Government week pizza party Maureen Hawel’s class at St. Joseph’s Catholic School in Arnprior was among several that recently enjoyed a pizza party courtesy of the Town of Arnprior. The class was one of a handful that toured town hall as part of local government week while town officials were working on branding efforts and Mayor David Reid encouraged the students to come up with logos representing their school. All participating classes received a free pizza lunch for their efforts. Above, Reid joins the St. Joe’s students for a group photo. From left, in front are Hayden Covey, Kole Lewis, Alexander Reid, Matthew Cavanagh and Emma Beaudoin; middle row: Abby Cave, Sarah Smith, Ryan Lalonde, Ashton Scharfe, Bryce Pichette, Jack Thomson, Mary McCuaig and Alexis Gauthier and in back: Mayor-David Reid, Ronin Muldoon, Dalton Cloutier, Ryan Klinkenberg, Cameron Wyatt, Matthew Skebo, Jacob Borutski, Jace Letourneau, Ryland Landon, Monika Denault and teacher-Maureen Hawel.

Students created logos, including the one pictured above, to respresent their schools. Classes at St. Joseph’s Catholic School and Walter Zadow Public Schools participated in the initiative.

Students celebrate community, global service at We Day event Lifestyle - Close to 16,000 area students and their teachers were at the Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa April 9 to raise their voices in celebration of National We Day. All Arnprior schools were represented at the gathering, which was held in conjunction with a world-wide initiative known as We Act, a year-long project designed to encourage young people to take part in local and international events that encourage co-operative and positive citizenship. The students attending earn their invitations by making a commitment to take action on at least one local and one global initiative of their choice as part of the year-long educational program, The day-long event was filled with powerful educational speeches, inspirational advice and electric performances. Featured guests at this area’s National We Day celebration included 11year-old Feed The Children ambassador Hannah Alper, Feed The Children co-founders Craig and Marc Kielburger, human rights advocate Martin Luther King III, Queen Noor of Jordan, Canadian rapper Kardinal Offishall, Canadian pop-rock band Neverest, and Spencer West, a double amputee who climbed Mount Kilimanjaro. Also on hand was Canadian Governor General David Johnston who honoured four inspiring young people with the Caring Canadian Award.

Ottawa Senator players Jason Spezza, Chris Neil and Chris Phillips handed out personalized jerseys to the crowd to honour schools for their commitment to improving their local and global communities. An initiative of Free the Children, We Day was celebrated by almost 200,000 youth in several events in Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom. It is one of the world’s largest charitable causes on Facebook with 3.8 million followers. National We Day brought several social issues to the forefront, and provided young people with ways to create change. The event, sponsored by RBC and Telus, was held in conjunction with activities marking the International Day of Pink, a public speaking out against all types of bullying. Many students wore pink to indicate their commitment to stop bullying when they see it by not being silent bystanders. WEST TREK

Spencer West, a Me to We motivational speaker, author and Free The Children ambassador, flew out to the east coast immediately after National We Day for his next big adventure – the We Create Change Tour. Along with friends from the awardwinning musical group Neverest, Alper and other surprise guests, West, a double amputee, has embarked on a

developing communities with access to education. “I’ve had the opportunity to travel and meet many people in developing communities around the world, and everywhere I go I learn more about the importance of access to education – lifting communities out of poverty and empowering young people to be leaders in their community,” said West. “I’m excited to share these experiences and stories with tens of thousands of Canadian youth over the next 10 weeks and celebrate their contributions to improving the education of their peers overseas.” An initiative of Free The Children, sponsored by RBC and driven by Ford, the We Create Change Tour is running from April 11 to June 17, gathering students and supporters in schools and auditoriums across the country for a dynamic and interactive educational event that will explore the issue

of equal access to education. West is scheduled to go through the ArnpriorRenfrew area April 30, with a stop at RCI to meet local students. Akin to a ‘mini We Day’, the event will be headlined by West and will feature incredible stories of young Canadian change-makers, with show-stopping musical performances, firsthand accounts from students and educators from developing countries and countless special surprises. Free The Children and Telus collaborated together to bring We365 to youth. We365 is a free mobile app and website that enables young people to track and verify their volunteer activities for school, as well as provide the tools needed to take action, and amplify messages for thousands of different charities For more on We Day, visit www. weday.com and www.freethechildren. com.

Double overtime thriller gives Casselman Junior B title john.carter@metroland.com

Sports - The Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League final couldn’t have been much closer. In game seven of the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League final Monday, the Casselman Vikings scored with 14 seconds left to force overtime. After almost two overtime sessions, the Vikings capped an impressive comeback with a goal to defeat the Ottawa West Golden Knights 3-2 and capture the league’s championship for the second time in three years. Ottawa West, which defeated Almonte in the Metro-Valley final, had posted 3-2 and 3-1 wins last week to grab a 3-1 lead in the bestof-seven series. The Vikings answered with clutch 3-2 and 4-1 wins to force game seven in Ottawa. NS BOUND

The victory sends them to the Eastern Canadian Junior B Hockey championship in Port Hawkesbury, N.S.

In game seven, Casselman had taken a 1-0 lead in the first period before former Arnprior Packer Marc Shanks tallied half-way through the second to tie the score. It remained that way until 19:23 of the third when another former Packer, Derrin Lehoux, scored in what appeared to be the goal that gave the Golden Knights the championship. NEVER SAY DIE

However, Ottawa West wasn’t given much time to celebrate. The never-say-die Vikings quickly responded when Thierry Henry tallied 23 seconds later at 19:46 to send the game to overtime. Casselman got stronger as the extra time progressed. Finally, at 18:42 of the second overtime, Joel Adam scored the goal to give the Vikings the title. Vikings goalie Gianmarco De Meis made 55 saves to thwart Ottawa West’s chances. Former Packers players Lehoux (3 goals, 3 assists) and Ethan Allard (3-2-5), along with Phil Edgar, paced the Golden Knights offensively in the final series.

Discussing Dementia – “Caring for the Caregiver” presented by Mills Community Support and the Alzheimer Society of Lanark County On May 8, 2014 Mills Community Support Corporation and the Alzheimer Society of Lanark County will be presenting an all-day education workshop entitled: Discussing Dementia - “Caring for the Caregiver”. There is a new case of dementia reported every 4 seconds worldwide. By 2050, dementia care will cost over $600 billion globally. If dementia were a country, it would be the world’s 18th largest economy. Dementia affects a person’s memory, communication & language, visual perception, reasoning & judgement. Alzheimers disease is the most common form of dementia. Dementia also takes a heavy toll (emo-

tionally, physically & financially) on the caregivers. This series will focus on the caregiver by offering valuable education and will empower them to be the best caregivers possible. Dr. Carole Cohen , professor at the University of Toronto and a researcher at the Sunnybrook Health Science Centre specializing in Geriatric Psychiatry, will be discussing compassion fatigue and ways to avoid it. Dr. Jennifer Becker, a physician with the Renfrew County Geriatric Day Hospital will be providing advice on what caregiver should know when visiting the doctor’s office. Angele Lavalle, Psycho-

geriatric Resource Consultant with Community Services of Ottawa, will share tips on self-care for the caregiver and the Alzheimer Society will also be offering practical in-home tips. There will be a Q&A session at the end of the day. Please feel free to bring your questions and concerns. All are welcome to attend! This event is being held at the Carleton Place Community Centre from 9:30am to 3:30pm. Registration will begin at 8:45am. The cost is $10 per person and includes lunch. All participants must register in advance. Please contact Jan Watson at 613256-1031 ext. 39 or jwatson@themills.on.ca to register or for more information. R0012619606_0417

The path to vitality

I panicked...

ANNE LEFEBVRE/SUBMITTED

My hair was thinning! For a long time Christie had wanted to do something extra for her hair. She felt it appeared dull and was thinning. Hair VolumeTM became her resource.

C

hristie encountered hair loss, which was very frustrating. “I have tried many things before, but to no avail.”

Read about Hair Volume™ Christie has worked in a pharmacy all her life. “Maybe that is why I was skeptical, when I first read about Hair Volume. I am always studying the declarations very carefully and there was something about this product,

which made me realize that it was special.”

Very positive experience “Today I have taken the Hair Volume tablets for 38 days and I can truly feel an improvement and less hair loss. My nails are also stronger and less grooved. All in all a very positive experience. I will definitely continue taking this product”, relates a happy Christie.

Jack Alexander enjoys the skiing at the CanAms in Sugarloaf, Vermont.

Valley skiers among racing’s rising stars Anne Lefebvre Calabogie Ski Racing Club

Sports - Two of Calabogie Ski Racing Club’s athletes have taken their skiing to the next level. Jack Alexander of Carp and Sam Duff of Pembroke, after experiencing success at Provincials, qualified for CanAms. This year, the U14 Provincials were held in Mount St. Louis Moonstone near Barrie. Provincials bring together the top 15-20 racers from each division all across Ontario. The racers compete in three events - giant slalom, slalom,

and dual slalom. Racers who place in the top 15 in two or more races then qualify for CanAms. The U14 CanAms were held at Sugarloaf, Vermont. This huge race pits the most elite-level skiers from the Eastern Canadian provinces and eastern American States against each other for North American glory. Following U14 Provincials, the only two athletes from the National Capital Division of alpine racing to qualify for CanAms this year were CRSC’s own Duff and Alexander. Duff capped off his Provincials with a win in the sla-

lom, and placed third overall. Alexander placed 10th in the dual slalom and 15th in the giant slalom - which is quite an achievement considering he is in his first year of U14. Both boys then travelled to Sugarloaf March 28-30 as Alpine Ontario’s NCD representatives. Duff pushed through a painful lower leg sprain and placed third in the slalom - a podium result against skiers from all across eastern North America. Alexander held his own against competitors who were larger and older than him. CSRC is very proud of these athletes’ accomplishments.

Castleford charity derby gets behind communities The Castleford Charity Ice Fish Derby, in its ninth year, continues to put its weight behind community causes. The derby held Feb. 15 was a huge success, as organizers determined the major beneficiaries of the proceeds would be Hospice Renfrew, Community Living Renfrew County South and Horton Township’s recreation programs. Each received $2,100, as council members applauded the event’s continuing community support. From left, for the ceremonial cheque presentation, are derby volunteer Robert Robinson, Rob Dougherty of Hospice Renfrew, derby treasurer Don Storie, derby president Vince Barr, Jennifer Creeden of Community Living Renfrew County South, Horton recreation volunteer Val Miller, Horton Coun.

Get Here From There Series for runners, cyclists to kick off April 26 Steve Newman

Steve.newman@metroland.com

News - The owners of Neat coffee house have long been active citizens who enjoy cycling, running and other physical activities. But conversations at their Burnstown business have convinced them that more people are looking for more enjoyable ways to enjoy a healthy lifestyle. Owners Kim and Adam McKinty, therefore, are launching a three-year pilot project, whose first season will consist of six different cycling and running events. The common finish line for each event is Neat; the common goal is to galvanize community and individual physical activity. The organizational committee includes Neat’s general manager, Tori Arsenault. Too often exercise is seen just as a workout or work, instead of being perceived as fun activity that leaves a smile on one’s face, says Kim. In this series, participants can do the run or cycle for $7 to $17, depending on the distance. There will also be the option of paying $10 for

STEVE NEWMAN/METROLAND

The organizers are getting ready for the first season of the Get Here From There Series. As with all six races, the kick-off event April 26 finishes at Neat Cafe, the Burnstown coffee house and eatery. From left are Neat general manager Tori Arsenault and owners Adam and Kim McKinty. a post-event barbecue and $18 for a t-shirt stylized for each race day’s particular distance. There is one event for April, June, July, August, September

and October for cyclists and runners, with the distance changing each time. Four rides will be staggered departures, while the 25-km

Splurge

and 10-miler will be mass starts. Family members will have the option of doing their staggered cycle start together.

The series’ event locations, distances and dates are: • Burnstown, one mile, April 26; • White Lake, five miles, June 1; • Renfrew, 10 kilometres, July 1; • Calabogie, 10 miles, Aug. 9; • Arnprior, half-marathon run, 25-km cycle, Sept. 28; • Stewartville, eight-km cross-country, Oct. 18. All courses are accurately measured and have traffic control. And if you don’t want to run or cycle, you can walk. Usually the cyclists will start shortly before the runners around 9 a.m. But in the case of next week’s Burnstown one-miler, the cyclists will leave at staggered times, starting around 8 a.m. The run begins at 9 a.m. To create friendly competition among companies, schools and organizations, individuals are also invited to participate on teams. When the McKintys founded Neat in 2008, Kim says they were told they wouldn’t make a go of it with a restaurant that provides food and a venue for big-name singers and entertainers.

Knowing the challenges of creating a business that’s now turning a profit, Kim says the Get Here From There Series could follow a similar path, by gradually gathering momentum and becoming a mainstay. Whatever the future holds, the McKintys say they’ll run the series for three years. Details of costs, course profiles and other events details are available at www.goodfood.com. Go to the various event links under the Fitness column. Racers can register online or on-site the morning of the event. Participants will also be invited to support the local Special Olympics program through pledge forms, and by donating beer bottles or Canadian Tire money. The McKintys say they hope the series gives people a sense of play and adventure, creates a connection between communities, and heightens participants’ awareness of their own physical-activity potential. The Get Here From There Series calls for six events in each of the first two years, and nine events in the third year.

Arnprior area churches join for Good Friday service nificance of Good Friday” will begin at 10:30 a.m. Participants are invited to gather at 9:45 a.m. at the Canadian Tire parking lot for a processional carrying of the cross to Glad Tidings church. Marchers are encouraged to pray and reflect on the importance of Good Friday for Chris-

tians and they walk to the service. Easter Friday is the day when Christians commemorate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, who they believe died for their sins so they could saved. This year’s joint service has a couple of differences from the last couple of years. The service is being held in a local church and not the

Nick Smith Centre. There is also just one gathering location for the processional instead of three areas this year. The participating churches are The River of Life, The Rock, Elgin Street Baptist, Grace-St. Andrew’s United, St. Andrew’s Presbyterian, Glad Tidings Pentecostal, Arnprior Wesleyan and West Carleton Christian Assembly.

Valley Heritage annual Radiothon ready to roll Sunday Lifestyle - Valley Heritage Radio is gearing up for its biggest fundraiser of the year. The non-profit communityowned station that has listeners throughout Renfrew and Lanark counties, West Carleton and the Pontiac is holding its annual Radiothon starting this Sunday, April 20. For 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, Valley Heritage Radio is on the air. For seven of those days – beginning April 20 – there is more than great classic music flowing across the airwaves of the station. There is also a clear message for members of the community that their help is needed and appreciated. “Community memberships and annual donations are crucial to keep Valley Heritage Radio on the air,” said station manager Jason Marshall. The fundraising membership drive begins Easter Sunday (April 20) and continues for a week. Volunteers and on-air personalities will be in communities across the Valley Monday through Friday, as part of the annual ‘Out & About’ visits. They’ll be bringing with them local musicians, to make it more of a

JASON MARSHALL

DJ Dai Bassett and listener Barb Desabrais have fun during the 2013 Radiothon. party atmosphere. “We love getting out to all areas in the Valley, and we know some people want to support Heritage 98-7, but can’t physically make it out to the station,” said Marshall. “So we’re happy to come to them.” Also during Radiothon Week, there will be three

nights of live music at the station (3009 Burnstown Rd.). On April 21, there will be a live country show featuring Ball & Chain, and Lorne Daley and the Ricochet Riders. April 23 will feature a night of live bluegrass gospel music with Concession 23 and Maple Hill. Friday, April 25 will be Fiddle Night with Dennis

Harrington bringing in a stage full of some of the Valley’s top fiddlers. “The live shows at the station are free and we encourage everyone to come out and catch the fever of the Radiotohon live and in person,” said Marshall. The fundraising drive wraps up Sunday, April 27 with

the annual Valley Round-Up Dance at the Renfrew Armouries. There will be five hours of live music guaranteed to keep everyone’s toes tapping, and a light lunch. Featured talent includes the Douglas Connection, Unwound and Mike Fahey & Classic Country Revue. “It’s perfect way to wrap up an intense week of fundraising,” said Marshall. “What better way to enjoy a spring Sunday afternoon than with great friends and great music.” Woven into the week of great music is a pledge drive where members of the community are encouraged to purchase or renew memberships to the station, or make donations, said Marshall. “We are a non-profit station with more than a hundred volunteers and a handful of paid staff who work tirelessly to keep the station running day in and day out,” said Marshall. “Our community membership sits at more than 1,800 members and without those supporters and their generosity, we wouldn’t be able to stay on the air.” Each day throughout the Radiothon, listeners will hear the usual blend of music and

the regular shows, but there will be daily messages encouraging the listeners to support the station in any way they can, said Marshall. “Even with all the volunteer support, it’s still costly to run a radio station,” said Marshall. “That’s why this Radiothon is so important. We want to be here for our listeners for a long time.” KICK-OFF BREAKFAST

Valley Heritage Radio will host a pancake and sausage breakfast at the Renfrew Armouries this Saturday, April 19 from 8 a.m. to noon. It’s free to get in, and breakfast costs $7 a plate, with all money going back to the station. Dennis Harrington & Heritage Country will be live on stage from 9 a.m. to noon. “It’s a morning of good music, good food and good friends,” said Marshall. “We’ve all been cooped up for a long winter, so what a great way to come out of hibernation.” For more information about the Radiothon, contact the station at 613-432-9873 or 888532-9870 or visit them online at www.valleyheritageradio. ca.

Mary panics over loose tooth: Ronny has just the solution Lifestyle - Why my cousins from Montreal were with us that time of year was beyond me. Ronny and Terry had come with Aunt Helen, who promptly went home on the train as soon as their clothes were unpacked. So it looked like they were going to be with us out on the farm for a while. Long enough that Ronny would go off to the Northcote School, while Terry,

the youngest, would stay home with Mother. Even though Ronny was a force to contend with, I loved it when the Lapointe cousins visited us on the farm. There was never a dull moment. That early Spring morning, a Saturday it was, I woke with a front tooth in the bottom of my mouth hanging by a thread. I could feel it with my tongue, and I fled my bed like I was on my way to the gallows ... Mother was already in the kitchen stirring porridge. I pointed to the tooth, vowed I was on my death bed, and by that time had woken the entire household who still had not gotten up. Mother looked in my mouth and lifted her hand as if she was about to perform surgery, and I clamped my mouth shut tight, still screaming at the top of my lungs. Ronny came downstairs into the kitchen, immediately knew what all the fuss was about, and announced that he was completely capable of getting rid of the tooth, and I wouldn’t feel a thing. “I get rid of Terry’s all the time,” he said. Terry, still groggy, and too young to know what was going on, curled up on the creton couch by the Findlay Oval and promptly fell back to sleep. Ronny went to the cupboard, got out the ball of string, and ripped off a goodly portion and said he would make a loop

over the tooth, I would sit on a chair, and he would walk slowly to the back door, hanging on to the other end of the string, and the tooth would be gone. “You won’t feel a thing,” he said. Well, the last time Ronny experimented with me and one of his high fallootin’ ideas, I flew off the shed roof holding an open umbrella and had a splint on my leg for two weeks. Mother was working away at making breakfast for Father and the brothers, who would soon be coming in from the morning chores, and she was paying absolutely no attention to Ronny or me and the seriousness of what was going on around her. I was still crying, with my mouth clamped tight as if my lips had been glued with mucilage. I could wobble the tooth with my tongue, and as far as I was concerned, I was ready to be taken in to old Doctor Murphy. Forget going to the dentist. I remembered the one and only time any of us ever went to a real dentist, it cost three dollars, and my sister Audrey who was the victim, said he nearly killed her!

I knew being driven 12 miles into Renfrew to have a wobbly tooth removed by Doctor Murphy was out of the question, and I finally agreed to let Ronny look in my mouth. “You won’t feel a thing,” Ronny said, as he neared my chair with the ball of string. “For goodness sake, Mary, the tooth is just hanging there. Let Ronny do what he has to do so I can get the breakfast on the table. “This commotion over a baby tooth is ridiculous,” Mother said as she banged the porridge pot on the Findlay Oval, stirring with a wooden spoon. Making the most of the situation, and adding as much drama as he could muster, Ronny said he would go as far away as the parlour door to pull the string. “That way you won’t know when I am going to do it.” As he neared my mouth, I told him I would put the string around the tooth, and he reluctantly handed me the ball made up of pieces we had retrieved from parcels bought at Briscoe’s General Store. All the time I was pressing my tongue against the offending tooth, and I could tell it had

loosened considerably. And then just as Ronny headed for the parlour, unrolling the string as he went, I felt the tooth lying in the bottom of my mouth. No longer was it a loose tooth ... it was now a tooth that had come out on its own, with the help of my tongue! I didn’t have the heart to tell Ronny it was all over. I had a good hold of the end of the string, and told Ronny I was ready. Ronny jerked the string like he was pulling turnips, and I let it fall to the floor and had the presence of mind to drop the tooth at my feet. Ronny skated around the corner of the kitchen, saw the string and the tooth laying on the floor, and puffed up his chest like had just discovered America! “Told you it wouldn’t hurt. You probably have other teeth that are ready to come out too. Let me have a look.” Well, there was no way I was going to let Ronny pull a perfectly good tooth out of my mouth. No sireee! Mother saved the day by telling us if we didn’t get to the table at once for breakfast, she was clearing the kitchen, and we would all have to wait for dinner at noon for our next mouthful of food. Ronny took the tooth between his thumb and finger, looked it over, and said, “I don’t want to be a General any more ... I think I will be a dentist!”

ships I have formed mean a lot.� ABMSH has been providing non-urgent medical transportation to individuals of any age since 1980. With 14 community drivers, the program is offered seven days a week. Black will, on the average, complete 10 drives a week. “Ian is a very reliable driver and works hard at making the trip for the client the best it can be,� commented Tammy Mondor, transportation coordinator at ABMSH. “Our goal is to support these clients to remain independent and healthy living in their own home in their own communities. Without our community drivers, this goal would be impossible.� It is retired, caring and compassionate people like Black who make it possible for the agency to offer th3 service on a large, and must needed, scale. A native of Glasgow, Scotland, Black immigrated to Canada in 1957 with his parents and

two sisters. At the young age of 17, he joined the Canadian Royal Navy and served 10 years. He started with four years in Esquimalt (Victoria) B.C. and six posted in Halifax, Nova Scotia as a submariner. A career change came when this Navy guy, then with a young family to support, completed another life-long dream; he attended the Ontario Police College in Aylmer. His policing career extended over 30 years as a constable with the Ontario Provincial Police. His ďŹ rst assignment was Thunder Bay followed by Hearst, Kanata and then two years in Rockland Park, Ottawa. Retirement for Ian came in August 2007. He now, along with his community volunteering, enjoys woodworking and reading all he can get his hands on. “I thoroughly enjoy my volunteer work, meeting the people especially now that I don’t have

to ticket anyone,� he jokes. He encourages others who have retired and are looking for a great way to pass the days while helping a neighbour. “Volunteering makes a huge difference in a person’s life and you will have a great feeling knowing you are giving back,� concludes Black. BREAKFAST N’ LEARN

The second education session, Breakfast N’ Learn in partnership with ABMSH, Galilee Centre and Tierney Stauffer LLP, takes place Wednesday, April 23. It is an 8:30 a.m. start at Galilee Centre with breakfast served at 9 a.m. sharp. Cost is $4 per person.

Lifestyle - As we continue to honour all volunteers throughout the month of April, National Volunteer Month, we are pleased to introduce one of 14 community drivers at ArnpriorBraeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program (ABMSH). They are called ‘community drivers’ or ‘volunteer drivers’. Either way you say it, they play a very vital part in the success of operations at ABMSH. It was early in 2010 that Ian Black made a promise to himself, a promise to become a volunteer with ABMSH and in November of that year he had completed the necessary process and joined the team as a community driver. Today he is both a community driver for Seniors at Home’s non-urgent medical transportation program as well a driver for the Hot Meals on Wheels program. The Hot Meal program provides fresh-hot meals for adults residing in Arnprior who are unable to shop for their own food, or to unable to cook nutritious meals for themselves. The program is available to seniors 60 years of age or older, adults who are chronically ill, living with a disability, convalescing from surgery or illness, or adults undergoing medical treatment. The meals are available for the noon hour meal Monday through Friday and can be arranged for any or all week days. Black has committed to the Hot Meals on Wheels program as the regular Monday driver. “It is this type of commitment that means so much to the success of the program,� said program coordinator Patti Jennings. “I enjoy meeting the people and helping out those less fortunate,� said Black. “The friend-

LITERACY

Connected to your community

Local author to launch fifth book April 26 at Arnprior museum Lifestyle - What started out as a hobby writing novels with a Christian message has turned into a full-time profession for local author Ellen Gable Hrkach. Her newly-released novel, A Subtle Grace, has already garnered rave reviews from fellow authors and critics. She will be holding a book launch at the Arnprior museum Saturday, April 26. Hrkach, who writes under her maiden name Gable, says that creating characters and stories can be “great fun and rewarding, but it’s also challenging work.� Three of Hrkach’s books have been in the top 20 of the Religious Drama category on Amazon.com and Amazon.ca since 2012. Her third novel, Stealing Jenny (about

Author Ellen Gable Hrkach will be having a book launch and signing at the Arnprior and District Museum on Saturday, April 26 from 1 to 4 p.m. a pregnant mother who is kidnapped), is frequently in the top five and has been down-

loaded over 230,000 times on Kindle. A Subtle Grace is the sequel to her second book, In Name Only, although Hrkach says that both novels can be read independently. A Subtle Grace takes place in Philadelphia in 1896 and continues the story of the wealthy and unconventional O’Donovan family. At 19, Kathleen, the oldest daughter in the family, is unmarried with no prospects. Fearing the lonely fate of an old maid, her impatience leads to an infatuation with the first man who shows interest. The suave, handsome son of the local police chief seems a perfect match. But will her impulsive manner prevent her from recognizing her true beloved? A disturbing turn of events

brings a dark shadow that threatens the life-long happiness she desires. Hrkach, originally from the Philadelphia area, uses her knowledge and love of Philadelphia history to create rich, realistic settings. Critical reviews of A Subtle Grace have been mostly positive. The book is currently in the top five of Religious Drama on Amazon.com (Kindle books) and spent several days at number one on both Amazon.ca (Kindle books) and Amazon.com. Erin McCole Cupp, author of Don’t You Forget About Me, says: “The plot tugs at the heart and gets the heart racing. Reading A Subtle Grace was like riding a Victorian-era wooden roller coaster: a luscious historical setting that

provides a tantalizingly dangerous thrill ride.â€? Author Therese Heckenkamp of Traditional Catholic Novels writes that A Subtle Grace â€œâ€Śis a novel to stir your heart, your emotions, and your soul. I highly recommend it!â€? In her review of A Subtle Grace, AnnMarie Creedon, author of Angela’s Song, says that it â€œâ€Ś is a masterfully written illustration of the difference between lust and love, between rashness and fortitude, between mere existence and truly living ‌ highly recommended!â€? In 2010, Hrkach’s second novel, In Name Only, won the IPPY Gold Medal in Religious Fiction, and her books have received the Seal of Approval from the Catholic Writ-

ers Guild. She has appeared numerous times on EWTN’s Bookmark with Doug Keck and on the Son Rise Morning Show (EWTN radio). BOOK LAUNCH

The author will be holding a book launch for A Subtle Grace at the Arnprior and District Museum on Saturday, April 26 from 1-4 p.m. Copies of all five of her books will be available for purchase and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the museum. All of her books are available on Amazon and at the Arnprior District Public Library. For info or to contact the author, check out the novel’s website www.asubtlegrace. com or the author’s website www.ellengable.com.

Legacy gift to CHEO generates $4.6 million As CHEO gets ready to celebrate its 40th anniversary this year, it is natural to reflect back to the early days of the hospital. It was a dream that was built on sheer will and determination by a community that was committed to providing the best health care for its children and youth. During the late 1960’s and early 70’s, physicians, elected officials, parents and the community at large joined forces to establish a special and distinct hospital to serve the children and youth of eastern Ontario and western Quebec. This group raised $4 million from the community which was a formidable sum for the times.

When Mr. Cochrane died in 1985 the CHEO Foundation received $540,000 from his estate. The Foundation established the Weldon Cochrane Endowment Fund with his gift as directed in his Will. Much has happened and changed at CHEO in the nearly 30 years since Mr. Cochrane’s death, and in that time his legacy gift has generated $4.6 million in interest which has benefited generations of patients and families at CHEO. In 25 years from now based on a conservative interest rate of 6% The Cochrane Endowment Fund will be valued at $19,742,605; in 50 years it will be $84,732,710 and in 100 years it will have reached $1,560,789,584.

THE IMPACT OF MR. COCHRANE’S GENEROUS GIFT IS PROBABLY BEYOND WHAT HE COULD HAVE EVEN IMAGINED WHEN HE MADE IT OVER 30 YEARS AGO. HIS LEGACY LIVES ON AND CONTINUES TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF YOUNG PATIENTS AT CHEO TODAY, AND FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. In 1980, when the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO) was only just 11 years old, Weldon Cochrane, an Ottawa chartered accountant and partner with the accounting firm of Coopers and Lybrand (now PriceWaterhouseCoopers) was also the Treasurer on the CHEO Foundation Board. Mr. Cochrane had an appreciation for the importance of leaving a legacy and understood how to make an impact. With that in mind, he made a gift in his Will to CHEO leaving the residual of his estate with instructions for it to be endowed; meaning that the capital would be preserved in perpetuity and the annual interest would be used to fund the important work at CHEO. He was predeceased by his wife, Adrienne Cochrane and his only child, Delma Grace Cochrane.

With these funds CHEO will be able to continue to purchase state of the art equipment, fund lifesaving research while continuing to provide the best in pediatric care for the children and youth of our community. His legacy lives on at CHEO every day through the children and families that benefit from his generous and forward thinking.

As CHEO marks this major milestone, we look back and honor those in our community who made our local children’s hospital a reality and donors like Mr. Cochrane who made children a priority in their lives. Donors like him have helped to ensure that CHEO will be here forever. Why not honour what is most important to you during your lifetime by considering a gift in Will to CHEO. Our children, youth and families deserve to always have excellent health care, to benefit from lifesaving research and be provided with the support programs to live happy and healthy lives now and forever.

WHAT IS FOREVER CHEO? Forever CHEO is a way to ensure that CHEO will always be here to provide excellent care, lifesaving research and invaluable support to children and their families every day by making a gift from your estate. When you leave a gift in your Will to CHEO you have the option of designating it to address immediate needs within the Hospital, the Research Institute or the Forever CHEO Endowment Fund. This fund will preserve the full amount of your gift and disperse the interest to CHEO annually. Since the fund will live on in perpetuity, so will your gift to future generations of children at CHEO. This is a way to leave a permanent and meaningful mark on your community.

If you are interested in finding out about how you can leave a CHEO legacy, please contact R0012641245-0417

PETS

Connected to your community

Pros and cons of pet adoption Lifestyle - There are several ways of adopting a pet. You can adopt from a shelter, purchase from a retail outlet, adopt from a reputable breeder or take your chance with the public, and every one mentioned comes with inherent problems. I have for years supported and saved many a four-legged life from shelters, but that can comes at a cost. Sometimes you can adopt and know the full history of a dog or cat; for example someone drops a pet off because someone in the home becomes severally allergic. The pet’s history is not in question and, therefore, a successful adoption can take place. On the other hand, someone drops off a pet anonymously or is found wandering and it comes to the shelter without a history. This pet can be a problem to an unwilling and uneducated pet owner. Sometimes pets in this situation are adopted with baggage. They can develop unwanted habits ranging

from aggression, problems with training, soiling in the house and guarding, just to name a few, and then there could be unknown health issues. I’m not suggesting that you do not adopt from a shelter. I am just making you aware of the pros and cons. If you’re going to save a life, be prepared to spend a little more time and perhaps a little more money. Purchasing from a retailer can be expensive. Retailers would never admit to it, but where do you think they get their livestock. Although it has never be proven, I would guess to say that they don’t come from reputable CKC registered kennels. And yes there are excep-

tions. Some pets that come from retailers do grow into beautiful loving dogs and cats, but why would you pay two or three times the price for a pet that has a questionable background when you could go to a reputable breeder and know what you’re adopting and have a guarantee on your adoption. Going to a breeder does not always ensure a successful adoption. Just about anybody with a purebred dog can register with the CKC. Enforcing of the CKC rules are hard to ensure unless a breeder is actually reported. If you do purchase from a breeder, make sure that the sale includes a 48-hour health guarantee that gives you 48 hours for a veterinarian to check out your puppy, so if there are any health problems you can return the puppy for a full refund or another puppy. There should also be a temperament guarantee as well as eyes and hips (depending on the breed). Cost should be lower than retail since they do not have the same overhead.

Going to the public in the form of classified ads or posters can be a problem for both the seller and the purchaser. The seller may never know the background of the buyer and the purchaser may never know the history of the pet in question. Lastly, always be aware of the puppy mill type seller. This type of seller has several phone numbers listed in the newspaper under several different kennel names and sells all types and sizes of dogs, and although you would be saving a life, this type of adoption can come at a price. Puppies out of puppy mills can have their share of health problems and you should be aware of that. As far as any health guarantee, good luck. So please, buyer beware.

In Loving Memory of Our Mom & Nana

In Memory of:

To my darling husband Bill, who would have celebrated his 90th birthday April 17th. I miss you terribly every day and today even more… Love always Esther and the kids xox

Heather Vanderwal April 29, 2013 God looked around His garden And found an empty place. He then looked down upon the earth, And saw your tired face. He put his arms around you And lifted you to rest. God’s garden must be beautiful, He always takes the best. He saw the road was getting rough And the hills were hard to climb, So He closed your weary eyelids And whispered “Peace be Thine” It broke our hearts to lose you But you didn’t go alone, For part of us went with you The day God called you home.

The most loving Husband, Father & Grandpa You can shed tears that he is gone or you can smile because he has lived. Your heart can be empty because you can’t see him or you can be full of the love you shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. You can remember him and only that he’s gone or you can cherish his memory and let us live on. You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back or you can do what he would want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on. Forever loved and missed Linda Deena, Aaron & Paxton Corey, Krystle & Burke

We thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. We thought of you yesterday and days before that too. We think of you in silence as we often speak your name. All we have are our memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake with which we’ll never part. God has you in His keeping, but we have you in our hearts. CLR517467

Heaven’s gate swung gently open, The Master called softly, “Come”, And you, dear one, took the Master’s hand, And your work on earth was done. We’ll never cease to miss you, And shed many silent tears, Because we cannot share with you Our hopes, our joys, our fears. But one day, in God’s garden, When the Master calls us to come. You’ll be at the gates with open arms And say to us, “Welcome Home!”

No words we write can ever say How much we’ve missed you every day over the past 2 years, As time goes by, the loneliness grows; How we miss you, nobody knows! We think of you in silence, We often speak your name, But all we have are memories And photos in a frame. No one knows our sorrow, No one sees us weep, But the love we have for you Is in our heart to keep. We have never stopped loving you I’m sure we never will; Deep inside our heart, You are with us still. We love you so, Dad, Grandpa, And we always will. CLR516461

The quiet house, the empty chair, The sad faces on the kids, When they realize Nanny is not there. We talk about you all the time, Limitless memories gush, Some make us laugh, others bring a tear Or make the whole room hush. Nothing can cure our heartache, Since we said good-bye last spring. But all the love you gave us, Has helped soothe grief’s sharp sting. In our hearts and forever loved, Love Gary, Nicole, Christina, Jennifer and families CLR517268

Linedancers gather to raise funds for United Church camp team who helped to plan the event. They were Barbara Glasgow (Galetta), Fernande Émon (Cornwall), Juliet Hamilton (Kanata), Mary Lueders (Renfrew), Valerie Penno (Braeside) and committee chair Chatterton (Arnprior). She had special thanks for the DJ, Rick Gauthier of Orleans, who has helped in this rôle for several years. Next, Chatterton introduced two instructors who were all set to teach new dances – Joey Prieur from Cornwall, and Juliet Hamilton. At this point, she reminded everyone of this year’s theme ‘Let’s Dance, Let’s Dream’, and pointed out that all the new dances to be taught had the theme in the titles, e.g. Dance-TheDream, Dream-Lover, Dream-On, etc. Additionally, she asked for a round of applause for all instructors – past and present – and congratulated them for their combined contribution to the ongoing growth and popularity of the dance-form in the Valley. The welcome and introductions concluded with Chatterton’s recognition of dancers who were in attendance from the recreation sites where she offers daytime instructions. They are known as ‘TheHy-Liners’ and dance weekly at the Almonte Community Centre, Carambeck Community Centre (Carleton Place), Stewart Community Centre (Pakenham) and the Nick Smith Centre (Arnprior).

Early-bird linedancers were off to a quick start, arriving one hour ahead for the Arnprior Party-Atelier at the United Church Christian Education Centre in Arnprior Saturday, April 12. Event organizer Hyacinth Chatterton, centre front wearing the hat, reports that this very successful annual event brought linedancers together, once again, from several areas of the Ottawa Valley for about five hours of fun and dancing She thanked them for co-hosting the event with her, and for their work in preparing for it during the winter sessions. From then on, the dance-floor was a scene of continuous activity as attendees enjoyed the demo-dances, learned new dances, reviewed some dances and simply had fun with many of the familiar stand-bys. The genres covered included circle-formations, country, fox-trot, Irish, Latin-rhythms, waltzes, west-

Lifestyle - The ‘Early-Birds’ were right on time for an extra hour of free dance time at Saturday’s fundraiser in Arnprior for Camp Lau-Ren, a summer camp for children. This annual linedance event, the Arnprior Party-Atelier (APPA), completed its ninth year on April 12 at the United Church’s Christian Education Centre on John Street. Althought the event was scheduled to run from noon to 4 p.m. event organizer Hyacinth Chatterton, along with APPA committee members, invited ‘early-birds’ to arrive at 11 a.m. for some extra dancing and practising time. And so they did – more than 30 dancers showed up early to register ahead, and to seize the opportunity to enjoy some extended dancing-time. Some Valley areas represented included Almonte, Arnprior, Braeside, Carleton Place, Carp, Cornwall, Galetta, Kanata, Kinburn, Orleans, Ottawa, Pakenham, Pembroke, Renfrew, Stittsville Waba and White Lake. By the time the main event started at noon, the attendees were almost 50 in number. In her welcoming address, Chatterton introduced various groups who were participating in the fundraiser. The Honky-Tonk Drifters from Pembroke and environs performed a series of special demonstratons. Also introduced were the APPA
