EMC news - The journey to post secondary education could soon begin in Arnprior once a college is built in the town. The municipality has been working with Willis College for a fair amount of time, discussing opening its doors in the area as well as other initiatives, said Mayor David Reid. The private college would be located at 39 Winners Circle, but to do so it requires the town to rezone the property. “The land right now is already developed as the Winners Circle Shopping Mall and the land is designated in our official plan as shopping centre and

commercial,” said town planner Robin Smith during a public meeting on the issue May 27. “Shopping centre and commercial zone does not allow for school as a permitted use.” At the college’s request, the municipality reviewed the viability of amending the zoning bylaw to add an exception for the school. During the meeting, the council voted to pass a new bylaw allowing the school into the location. It is relatively rare for a municipality to accept a school in a zone other than a community facility zone in residential area, but the college fits in well, said Smith. See CAREER, Page 3

Marketing local farmers Gableridge Farm’s Sandra and Mark Gaetz were front and centre during opening day of the Arnprior Farmers’ Market Saturday. Along with about a dozen other vendors, the Gaetzs will set up each Saturday morning this summer outside the Arnprior Curling Club next to the fairgrounds to sell their products and promote the growing ‘buy local’ movement. Buy local is championed as a way to reduce one’s carbon footprint (by not purchasing goods that have travelled long distances); support local families and economy; and in the case of food – buy food that in many cases is made or grown the old-fashioned way, not mass-produced by and for multi-national corporations.

Book tree boosts literacy Town’s operations supervisor retires Continued from front

Arnprior Early Years program director Julie Johnson said the book tree will eventually contain up to 500 books, which will be available for children to use for free. She noted there will be a selection of books in French and some with Aboriginal themes included in those available for reading. Children and adults can drop off gently-loved books, pick up free books and track registered books travelling from tree to tree and home to home anywhere in the County of Renfrew using the international book sharing site www.bookcrossing.com. The Town Square in Bell Park is an appropriate site because once it is fully developed, it will be an enjoyable place, with the new benches and landscaping, to read outdoors, she noted. Johnson explained that the book trees program began in Berlin and has been successful at getting children to read, particularly those up to 12 years old who might otherwise not be encouraged to do so. Johnson and Arnprior youth recreation director Kayla Menkhorst are inviting everyone down to the Town

Square for “planting” of the book tree that has been made by Calabogie Rustic Furniture. The first 100 books will be placed and there will be music, refreshments, cake and homemade book marks to take home. “It will be a big celebration, so come on down,” said Menkhorst. Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon gave an overview of the program last week at county headquarters. He noted that the program not only highlights literacy in the county but also promotes the local wood sector. “This program is an excellent vehicle to remind and impress upon people the importance of literacy and the enjoyment of reading good books,” he said. “It also highlights one of our more valued sectors of employment in the County of Renfrew - the forestry sector,” he added. “Forestry employers and employees are integral parts of their community and we join with them in supporting easier access to books and knowledge. We look forward to the growth and travels of knowledge and books inside and outside of our County of Renfrew communities.”

Continued from front

Town staff noted that the site is a good location and has ample parking. “While any school could go onto the site once we do the rezoning, of course very few would fit in the footprint of the site as it exists,” said Smith. “From a planning perspective, we feel an adult education facility such as this would be an appropriate use of the commercial zone.” Willis College offers several career-focused programs in business, technology and health care. It currently has campuses in Ottawa, Smith Falls and Coburg.

The college has been open for the past 116 years and has launched more than 35,000 graduates over the years. It has built a network of partners, including international contacts, to help mentor students. This includes the likes of Microsoft, the Better Business Bureau, the Canadian International Development Agency as well as foreign partners such as the Shanghai Municipal Vocational Training Directive Centre. It is hosting the Ontario, Canada – Guangdong, China Occupational Health and Safety Training Summit May 27 to May 31.

EMC news - For over 31 years, Terry Dykens has worked for the town of Arnprior and his dedicated service did not go unnoticed. Mayor David Reid and his council put aside time during their May 27 meeting to thank the long-standing employee for his service. “I’m going to be married 30 years this week,” Mayor Reid joked. “So I can attest that 30 years is a lot.” “He was always looking out for his employees,” he continued once laughter died down. “Over the years, he has been a significant contribution to the town’s employee health and safety committee.” Dykens was accompanied at the council meeting by his family. They watched as the Mayor bestowed upon him a farewell gift, a large framed painting of the town. “Thank you town and council and Glenn Arthur (director of recreation) for all the years of employment,” he said.

EMC news – An Arnprior District High School student has dropped off a petition and DVD for McNab-Braeside opposing the “industrialization” of the Braeside Quarry. However, to the dismay of some township residents at the meeting, Traleena Rouleau wasn’t allowed to make an official presentation to council at its planning advisory committee session May 21 or use the public question period to do so. PAC chair Christine Blimkie ruled that Rouleau and other residents on hand who wanted to speak out at the end of the meeting could only use question period to make queries on issues raised at the session. She also denied the residents’ request to play Rouleau’s DVD for any councillors interested in the parking lot. A request by a couple of residents to make an official presentation regarding Ministry of Natural Resources’ documents they wanted to share with council was also rejected. Blimkie explained that the process doesn’t allow council to directly hear more presentations or it would have to call another official public meeting. However, council can still receive written submissions up until the time it votes on the bylaw.

SHERRY HAAIMA/METROLAND

More than 200 people gathered at a public meeting May 6 in Braeside to voice concerns and offer comments on the proposed Braeside Quarry expansion. Results and reports stemming from that meeting will be reviewed and discussed at a special planning advisory committee meeting Monday, June 3 at 6 p.m. at McNab-Braeside council chambers.

are on, please pay attention to reports in the newspapers about what is happening within your township,” Sheehy wrote. “We have to be vigilant about who represents us and what they do when they get into power.”

Miller to respond to public queries Continued from front.

Councillors will discuss planner Bruce Howarth’s planning report on the process so far as well as review input that continues to come in from the public and the Miller Group. The public can attend the special PAC meeting June 3, but will not be able to take part in the discussion. Howarth’s report, which provides an updated summary of the input and his recommendations, has been put on the township’s website. The majority of council also felt that a meeting with Ministry of Natural Resources and Ministry of Environment officials would be beneficial to clear up municipal-provincial responsibilities and discuss the site plan and mitigation efforts to reduce effects of a permanent asphalt plant, if the proposal is approved. Meanwhile, Miller consultant, Gary Bell of Skelton, Brumwell and Associates explained that the company would like a chance to respond to concerns raised by citizens during the process. As a result, it will hold another open house at Our Lady of Perpetual Church in Braeside along the lines of the aggregate act session it held May 6 prior to the public meeting, he explained. Miller is awaiting for the MNR’s 45-day period to be up before it schedules the session, but it will likely be held in July. The decision to respond to public questions and comments surprised PAC chair Christine Blimkie, who noted that the company had earlier indicated it would respond to council’s questions but not the many coming from the public.

The decisions irked several residents who noted that Miller consultant, Gary Bell of Skelton, Brumwell and Associates, was given several minutes in question period to update council on Miller’s plans and officially ask for copies of the most recent reports council has received, including planner Bruce Howarth’s summary report. After the PAC meeting was over, Rouleau gave her petition and DVD to township CAOclerk Noreen Mellema. She has also put the video on YouTube.

Local politicians updated on land claims proposals Steve Newman

steve.newman@metroland.com

Opinions continue to be collected about the Algonquin land claim preliminary draft agreement in principle (AIP). That agreement has long-standing roots, namely an Oct. 7, 1763 Royal Proclamation by King George III and a 1772 Algonquin petition to the Crown. The current land claim is expected to result in the first Ontario aboriginal treaty agreement since 1923, but there is still much work to do. So said Bob Potts, chief negotiator for the Algonquins of Ontario, who was the host of a May 22 forum at the Eganville Arena about the preliminary draft AIP. More than 50 municipal, provincial and federal officials attended. Potts’ presentation included a question-and-answer session, while the forum also allowed for one-onone conversations with officials, and a chance to view maps of the proposed land settlement transfers. The preliminary draft AIP calls for a transfer of $300 million to the Algonquins and recommends approaches to address Algonquin harvesting rights, forestry, parks and protected area, Algonquin heritage and culture, and Algonquin eligibility. The proposed Crown land consists of more than 200 parcels of land, ranging from a few acres to more than 30,000. “We’re here because this is part of a process that we felt was fundamental to achieving a resolution, and reconciliation is part of any treaty negotiation,” said Potts. “It’s unique, it’s never been done before, in terms on consultation before an AIP is signed. But that’s where we felt that we (the Alqonquins and provincial and federal governments) needed to go — to get feedback, to get input, to spread our message.” One member of the audience said the consultation period (that began with release of the preliminary draft AIP in December 2012) has really been a period of presentation, not consultation. Not entirely, said Potts. Firstly, he stressed there was no advantage to consulting with all affected, or potentially-affected, parties

STEVE NEWMAN/METROLAND

Laurentian Valley Mayor Jack Wilson speaks to Bob Potts, chief negotiator for the Algonquins on the preliminary draft agreement in principle (AIP) that stems from an Algonquin petition to the Crown in 1772. Potts and about 50 municipal officials were in Eganville May 22 for the first of three forums on the preliminary draft AIP. At right, Potts speaks to the audience. until the Algonquins and provincial and federal governments had been able to identify common denominators for an AIP. Inviting everyone to be part of that process, he suggested, would have created mayhem. Now there will be changes to the current AIP based on meaningful feedback, said Potts. “This is not fluff, this is an honest, genuine effort to get feedback,” Potts said during his presentation. Responding directly to the criticism, he replied: “In all the discussions I’ve been part of … we’re not just presenting. We’re there to listen, and today was no exception. We’re here to get feedback. There will be more of this in the next few months. We’re going to try to get as much information as we can before we go back to the terms of the agreement, and where we can make it better we will.” He also noted that there will still be opportunity to amend the AIP before the treaty is signed. That probably won’t happen for another five years or more, he suggested.

R0012122312/0530

R0012122263/0530

“We are still in the gathering-of-information stage and involved in discussions on some changes in aspects of the preliminary-draft AIP, including the land selections. It would be inappropriate and premature for me to speak on those initiatives while they are ongoing,” said Potts the day after the forum. “All that can be said is that there will be changes in the draft AIP which will be the successor to the PDAIP, based on these very constructive conversations and consultations that are underway, including the forum with elected officials that took place in Eganville.” UNFINISHED BUSINESS

At the forum, Potts said there’s still a lot of unfinished business. “We still have a lot of work to do, talking to people, to work out arrangements for things like aggregates, hunt camps and snowmobile trails … We want to talk and work out arrangements … without exposing us to liability.”

During the forum, Potts said the proposed land selections for transfer to the Algonquins will occur for one of four purposes. Most of those lands will be subject to taxation and landuse discussions with municipalities. Three areas, which will be exempt from taxation, are scheduled to be recreational or environmental areas: 3,000 acres around Mattawa-North Bay, 18,000 acres in the WhitneyBancroft area and 34,000 acres in an area running from Algonquin Park to Golden Lake. It will also take an estimated five to 10 years to transfer the land to an Algonquin system. This will also be worked out through consultation with municipalities over the next four years, said Potts. The updated division, for the 117,500 acres scheduled for transfer to the Algonquins, is: • residential and industrial development – four per cent; • historical or spiritual – 32 per cent; • economic development, commercial, tourism – 17 per cent; • community, recreation and environmental protection – 47 per cent. Potts said the five key building blocks behind the drafting of the AIP are to: 1. reaffirm the honour and pride of the Algonquin people; 2. ensure the survival and prosperity of the Algonquin people and culture; 3. raise awareness and understanding of Algonquin history and culture; 4. stimulate cultural and economic development opportunities; and 5. achieve reconciliation of the relationships of the Algonquins with the Canadian and Ontario governments. Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon said the forum was reassuring. “We’ve heard it from the federal and provincial perspective, and today we heard it from the Algonquins’ perspective. They have continually

been respectful of the process and of the rights of the present landowners, and that’s been reaffirmed today.” “From a county perspective, we are generally pleased with the progress on municipal issues,” said Renfrew County chief administrative officer Jim Hutton. “Three or four years ago, property taxation and land-use planning were not even on the table. The (preliminary) draft AIP addresses these issues fairly well from a purely municipal perspective. “Individual ratepayers and groups have indicated a major concern with the harvesting aspects and some of the specific proposed land transfers. However, there is really no specific municipal jurisdiction over those areas.” “This process (with the May 22 forum and public meetings) has been good,” said Jane Dumas, mayor of South Algonquin Township whose centres include the villages of Whitney and Madawaska. “It was also reassuring to hear Bob Potts state that, down the road, when everything is done, municipalities will have access to making at least a bid on Crown land … because if you look at the map, 90 per cent of South Algonquin is Crown land.” Proposed land settlement transfers in South Algonquin to the Algonquins of Ontario amount to about 10,000 acres, including land around Galeairy and Aylen lakes. Municipalities represented at the Eganville forum included such Renfrew-area municipalities as Greater Madawaska, Admaston-Bromley and Bonnechere Valley, as well as Pikwakanagan, Madawaska Valley, South Algonquin, Hastings Highlands and Addington Highlands. More than 8,000 Algonquins are expected to vote on the draft AIP this year.

Road, winter maintenance Mississippi River bridge standards to be reviewed due for repair or demoltion Patricia Leboeuf

pleboeuf@metroland.com

R0012127713_0530

EMC news – Arnprior council will review the town’s current road maintenance policy in order to better incorporate the updated provincially mandated Minimum Maintenance Standards (MMS). “Our road maintenance policy needed some tweaking to reflect our new roads that have been constructed or will be constructed in the next few years due to development,” said public works director Guy Bourgon. “As well as the substantial changes in our fleet equipment.” He presented the new policy for council approval at the May 6 meeting. The current road maintenance policy was approved in 2008, but since then there have been changes to the MMS. These standards were set in place to defend towns from lawsuits, but have recently failed to protect several municipalities in court. To prevent further litigations, the MMS have been updated, which should be reflected in the town’s policy, said Bourgon. The updated MMS now requires the town to address the issue before it begins. Ice, freezing rain, large snow falls must be taken care of as soon as it happens. To achieve this near precognition, town staff will need to carefully monitor the situation. “You need to monitor weather three times a day minimum to ensure that you are getting the most up-to-date information and take the necessary preventative actions in advance of the actual whether occurring,” said Bourgon. The MMS now identify that period of weather monitoring to be crucial between the months of October and April. Tricky wording and legal jargon had to be revised. Several definitions were updated, actions précised and dates reviewed. “There wasn’t clear direction in the Minimum Maintenance Standards to say whether

weather should be monitored so much during these times during the winter season and what constituted the winter season,” said Bourgon. The new MMS and policy should help provide more protection for the town, he added. Bourgon also presented a few options for winter maintenance. During the winter of 2013 and 2014, the town will test a new method of clearing the sidewalks and hydrants. “The current practice is for a contractor to come in and do a number of streets,” said Bourgon. “Mostly downtown, but not only downtown. Select streets.” “This is done by the contractor using a piece of equipment with a plough on it that actually pushes the snow back in the road,” he added. This result in higher costs because anything pushed from the sidewalks onto the roads must then be collected by town equipment. This costs $278,000 with $196,000 of the fee going towards removing snow from the street. The recommended option involves using a snow blower, which would deposit the snow on grassed boulevards. It would cost $277,000 and take half the time than current practice. After a large snowfall, it currently takes about seven days to clear all hydrants as they are last in priority, said Bourgon. Roads and sidewalks are ploughed first then snow is removed on the street and cemeteries are cleared. Fire hydrants in residential areas are than cleared using a small loader and truck to haul the snow away. Many home owners also tend to pile the snow on the hydrant so the town can clear it away from them, said Bourgon. The option the town plans to test involves removing the snow from the hydrants, but instead of hauling it away leaving it on the snow bank. “That dramatically reduces the costs from almost $3,900 to a little under $2,400,” said Bourgon. “As well as because you aren’t hauling it away in tandem trucks there is a time saving as well. “

EMC news - After 59 years of steely support, the Ministry of Transportation (MTO) is looking into either improving or removing the Mississippi River Bridge on old Highway 17. Due to its age and current condition, it has been identified as needing repairs, said MTO Regional Communications co-ordinator Brandy Duhaime in an email. The last major rehabilitation was completed in 1982 and a detailed design study must be done in order to identify the preferred techniques and practices. “The detailed design study will look at options such as permanently removing the bridge, rehabilitation, or replacement,” said Duhaime. The bridge will be closed for the grand majority of the repairs and the study will determine where the most efficient detours should be placed. This won’t be for quite a while as the study, overseen by Dillon Consulting Limited, will be completed in 2015. Impacts on the environment as well as the R0011949756/0307

impact on residents will also be evaluated. “The public and stakeholders will be consulted to determine the effects which will be considered when developing the recommended alternative,” said Duhaime. Options for funding are currently being reviewed by the ministry, but it is unable to share the estimated amount for construction until a building contract is awarded. “This would impede a fair and open bidding process,” said Duhaime. The public will be kept abreast with any development in the study and during the improvement phase. Notices will be published in local papers once dates for a public forum are confirmed. It will give the public an opportunity to have their comments and concerns taken in consideration. “We are committed to seeking public input into our designs and construction projects to ensure that we can address the needs of the surrounding municipalities, residents and stakeholders,” said Duhaime.

EDITORIAL

Education opportunities should be equal We told you so. An award-winning Metroland feature series last year detailed the inequities in schools throughout Ontario. Students in rich neighbourhoods enjoy many extras not available to their counterparts in poorer areas. Schools in better-off areas are much more successful in raising funds than those in districts where the income is lower than the average. As a result, the educational opportunities in the province are not equal. Unfortunately, it results in a vicious circle that helps feed the growing gap between rich and poor in this province and country. Those findings were echoed in a report released this week by the People for Education advocacy group. The study has concluded students from poorer families and areas are not getting the support they need to ensure they have equal access to a wide range of educational services. Be it band, field trips, gifted classes, arts, sports or French Immersion, too many Ontario students are not able to benefit from the specialities that can play such a large part in a studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education.

The rising expense of providing such extras, to the point that educational trips and activities have risen beyond the financial wherewithall for many families, has become a major problem for public schools that pride themselves, at least theoretically, on offering equal educational opportunities for all students who want them. Fortunately, smaller communities such as Arnprior and McNab-Braeside, tend to rally behind their schools. While the economies of scale dictate smaller schools canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t offer as many different educational programs as larger schools, at least the strong community involvement helps smooth out the inequities somewhat. However, local business can only support school activities to the degree the community patronizes them, so shop locally if you want educational opportunities to include all our students. The People for Education report concludes that schools shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to rely on the vagaries of parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; income and fundraising abilities to provide necessary programs. Educators should determine what educational opportunities students should have access to, then work out the funding, not the other way around, the group says. Here, here. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what our series conclud-

LETTER

Cat adoption rejection hard to understand To the Editor: My husband and I had just read your article on the Arnprior Humane Society (Chronicle-Guide, May 23) and we were refused by them as well. We went in with two of our children to look for a cat. We picked one out, filled out the paper work and told them our story. We had a cat which we loved that we had rescued as a kitten. She was loved, feed and care for in every way for many years. Our eldest daughter is special needs (23-years old) and our youngest was four at the time. Well, our cat was curious and snuck out of the house a few times when these two of our kids would be opening the door. She knew who was slow. Well, the last time she got out, she never returned. We looked for her ev-

erywhere and we were all upset. She had a collar with our name and number on it, but no sign of her. We had her fixed and declawed for our furniture. We never mistreated her and she had a loving home. She always had someone with her being that we have five kids. After waiting to hear back from the Humane Society for four days, no call and no answer. My husband went after work and was told we were refused because we unfit. They told my husband that we should have done everything to not let the cat out. I was so upset and could not understand. We loved the cat with all our heart and never meant her to get outside. We saw the living conditions that the cats were in and it by no means is a healthy one. Yes they are feed well,

needles, etc., but they are on top of each other. I was upset so we started looking elsewhere for a cat and found a beautiful rescue kitten and made her our own. It is a pity how these cats are refused by so many good homes. When I see them asking for donations and food, I want to scream. They have caused their own problems. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel pity for them; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the cats that are suffering at their expense. Bonnie Belda Arnprior

Shelter staff have tough decisions to make harness. They can go outside anytime, but they are safe. I have volunteered at the shelter for close to three years and these ladies know all the cats and their personalities. They take their responsibilities seriously and should be commended. But, to add insult to injury, people now think the best way to get a cat is to lie and say the cat will be indoors. How is this helping the shelter trust that this animal will get the best care. It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t about money, it is about the welfare of the animal, which the shelter takes very seriously. Sure it would be great to get the numbers down, but you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forsake the safety and well-being of these animals. This shelter must make very difficult decisions and I admire their courage. They will always stand tall in my books.

ed and there are many things we can do to prevent blindness and vision loss. The most important step is to get regular eye exams by a Doctor of Optometry. The problem is that many Canadians arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t getting their eyes checked as often as they should because they think their eyesight and their eye health are the same thing.

To the Editor: On behalf of the fundraising committee of Walter Zadow Public School, we would like to say a big thank you to everyone who contributed and made our â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Drive 4 Ur Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; event on Saturday, May 11 a massive success. McAllister Ford has hosted this fundraiser for two years in a row and we are most grateful to them for providing such a variety of great vehicles on the day and also to the Ford employees who volunteered their time. To the emergency services who came out to display their vehicles and gave up their day. To the Arnprior Mall and Canadian Tire who allowed the use of their parking lot for the event. To M&Mâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for the use of their barbecue and the Nick Smith Centre for the tables and chairs they delivered and collected, thank-you. MYFM radio station for advertising our event and to Lynn Grinstead for being there on the day. To all the volunteers who braved the cold to come out and keep things rolling throughout the day, it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have been possible without you. So many local businesses were so kind to donate fabulous prizes for our raffle table. The generosity of these businesses was tremendous and we are most grateful. As the economies in our small towns struggle, we cannot stress how important it is for us, as a community, to support our local traders whenever possible. Last but not least, thanks to the public and the families of the school who supported the day and helped us get closer to our goal of building a new play-structure for the Kindergarten-Grade 3 yard. The day was a great success, raising over $4,300. Thank you.

To the Editor: May is Vision Health Month and according to CNIB research, Canadians are more afraid of losing their eyesight than almost anything else. Given that one in seven of us will develop a serious eye disease, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fear thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly not unfounded. Fortunately, 75 per cent of vision loss can be prevented or treat-

Yes, it does sounds wonderful to rescue a cat from an overcrowded shelter and bring him to your loving home where he has all the love and food he needs and even the great outdoors to explore and I am sure you are loving and wonderful people and this cat will be safe. However, I can also understand the shelterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s point of view. We need to understand the trauma many of these cats have faced. Most have been abused, abandoned and neglected and the shelter only wants what is best for these cats, some have been in their care since they were young. Cats are not dogs and most will not come when called, especially if they are not familiar with the area. They will eventually wander away from their new home, which is what the shelter fears. I have owned cats for over 40 years and I know the dangers they face being outside, so mine are quite happy to be on a

To the Editor: I read your recent article (ChronicleGuide, May 23) regarding the Arnprior and District Humane Society and their policy regarding cat adoptions to those who wish to adopt and let them be outdoor cats. True the shelter is up to the rafters in cats, but letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not forget how they got so many cats in the first place. It certainly was not by choice. These cats used to belong to people who have now decided they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want them, so bylaw brings them to the shelter. Some think it a bother or too costly to spay or neuter, so they leave them outside figuring it is good for them and if they have kittens great because kittens are cute and I totally agree, but who will take care of them? They are now feral and considered a nuisance. Who gets them, the shelter. There are far more health risks for an outdoor cat than most are aware, but I digress.

EMC lifestyle - In earlier days people thought dead trees were bad for forests. As a result, many forests were manicured to contain only â&#x20AC;&#x153;perfectâ&#x20AC;? trees. Even fallen trees were removed, giving the understory a park-like look. Then came the realization that dead and dying trees were part of healthy forests. When they fall and decay, trees return their stores of nutrients to the soil. During the stage between life and full rot, they provide food and shelter to numerous plants and animals. Of particular importance are tree cavities. Once vacant, woodpecker nest holes are exploited by many non-excavating creatures. The list of cavity adopters is long and includes Tree Swallows, Black-capped Chickadees, House Wrens, Whitebreasted Nuthatches, Great Crested Flycatchers, Eastern Bluebirds, Eastern ScreechOwls, Gray Squirrels, and Northern and Southern flying squirrels. Hollows are also formed by rot especially where branches have broken off. Larger cavities house big-

Michael Runtz Natureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Way ger animals such as Common Grackles, Wood Ducks, Barred Owls, Raccoons and Porcupines. Last week in Presquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ile Provincial Park, I learned of a Northern Saw-whet Owl nesting in a cavity in an old cedar. Saw-whets are tiny â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a mere seven inches tall - and are seldom seen because of their size, preference for roosting in dense conifers, and nocturnal behaviour. They prefer riparian areas and sometimes nest in vacant flicker holes in drowned trees in beaver ponds. The Presquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ile nest was in a cavity created by rot. When I arrived I was astounded to find the cavity at

eye level. I once saw a saw-whet nest site in an abandoned Pileated Woodpecker hole in a poplar 25 feet above the ground. The lowest recorded Ontario nest was 8.2 feet off the ground; one in B.C. was 82 feet high. The Presquâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ile nest cavity was extraordinarily low, possibly the lowest ever recorded. When the little owl made an appearance, I was ready and quickly took a few photos from a distance with a long lens on a tripod (without a flash so as not to hurt her darkadapted eyes). After less than a minute she retreated out of sight and I left without disturbing her further. I soon learned that other visitors were not so considerate. To my horror, I saw on my photos that some idiot had carved â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;BOOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; next to the hole. I learned that during the two days prior to my visit, photographers had jammed sticks and shone lights down the hole to make the owl appear. Apparently someone had even tried to pet it.

Naturalists to discuss effects of fishing, stocking on bass

Continued from Page 10

Photos and directions to the nest were posted on Facebook and as a result many others came to see the owl. After learning of the shocking harassment, I requested that Park staff divert the trail, closing off access to the tree. Too often photographers have no respect for Nature (only for their prized photos) and harass and even destroy their subjects. The Presqu’ile Saw-whet nest was a disturbing case in point. With today’s digital cameras, taking good pictures of animals is relatively easy. Sadly, lessons on ethical photography never come with the camera.

EMC lifestyle – If you were to ask the world record live release muskie holder about his favourite fishing story, it won’t have anything to do with his world record live release muskie. It’ll be about his son’s first. “Bringing kids out to see them catch their first fish, that’s what I love,” said Bill Craig, of Mr. Muskie Charters. “To some it doesn’t mean much to them, but others will be jumping up and down all day.” The laughter is the thing that sticks out most in Craig’s mind when he thinks back to that day in the early 1990s when his son James was about 5. “He had the greatest laugh every time he caught one. You could really feel what he was going through.” The vibrations in the hands, the rod tugging one way then another; it first came to him when he was 3. He had caught a few other fish in his toddler years. But when he latched onto a muskie two years later, it may have dawned on him that he would be fishing with his dad for decades to come. The story offers a strong image to go with the peals of laughter. They are out on the boat one night with James acting his usual independent self. The lines set and out and the rod butts in their admittedly cheap plastic holders. The patriarch of the boat was cruising along the august Ottawa, scoping out parts of a river he’d fished since childhood. All things under the stars were in their rightful place. But the universe would alter moments later for father and son. “Dad,” travelled a thin voice through the darkness behind him. Bill pivoted to see James

DEREK DUNN Valley fish tales coming down the middle of the boat, the holder replaced by a little man’s clenched fist, a fish squirming on the end of his line. In other circumstances it would jostle an experienced angler, but not in this case. It wasn’t a regular fish: not a sunfish, larger mouth or smally, not even a nasty pike. It was an elusive fish known as the fish of a thousand casts: a muskellunge. Helicopter parents wouldn’t be impressed. Muskies are potentially dangerous, if for no other reason than they can grow into 50-pound monsters that thrash about on a boat if not handled properly. Unfortunately (or fortunately) it didn’t come to that. “We lost it. But it’s still my favourite story because it was James’ first muskie.” The life-long Arnprior native has volunteered to take countless kids out fishing for the first time, often during the province’s Kids Fishing Day. He and other members of the group he founded, Ottawa Valley Muskie Club, have raised thousands of dollars for local charities. It’s a little easier these days to hook a muskie, certainly compared to when Bill was a lad. Those were the days of fewer boats on the water, rudimentary equipment, and inexact techniques. A kid catching a muskie was like a kid sinking a hole in one on the golf course. That’s not to take anything away from today’s youngsters. It’s just to say that

Craig’s first muskie changed his life. But his first, just like his biggest, is a story that will have to wait for another time. EWW, EEL

Pat Briere down in Cornwall has a few lengthier stories to share about he and his brother’s escapades on the mighty St. Lawrence. But one of the funnier ditties has nothing to do with a fish. “I was out fishing with a couple of buddies when it felt like we knocked bottom,” said the owner of Pat Briere’s Muskie Charter. His friend started reeling up in the fast flowing current. They quickly realized it wasn’t hooked in weeds or lodged under a rock. It was something else entirely. “It was funny to watch him, a 60 year old man fighting this thing like crazy,” Pat said. “Then he pulled it up. It was a half chopped up dead eel. We almost fell out of the boat laughing.” SHARE YOUR TALE

Do you have a fish story sure to entertain readers throughout the Ottawa Valley? It has to be true and it has to be short. But after that it’s up to you. Give Derek Dunn a call at 613.623.6571 or email derek.dunn@metroland.com. He’ll jot it down for an upcoming Valley Fish Tales.

SPRING HYDRANT FLUSH PROGRAM The Public Works Department is conducting a scheduled Spring Hydrant Flush. This program is designated to clean the distribution system by flushing standing red water from the system. The work is planned for the weeks of June 3 to June 21, 2013 and will be completed in the shortest period of time possible. This procedure is quite routine but it may result in some temporary inconveniences such as poor water pressure or “red” water. Do not be alarmed. HERE ARE THE FACTS: 1. If coloured water is detected, please open your COLD water taps to clear the system. 2. The coloured water is not hazardous to health. 3. This situation is temporary and should not last any longer than two hours at most. Council and Town Staff thank you for your continued cooperation and understanding.

DRIVING DISTRACTIONS SMART DRIVERS JUST DRIVE! When driving a vehicle, road safety is your first responsibility! Driving is a task that requires your full attention every time you get behind the wheel. As a driver, you must always remember to reduce driver distractions and focus on the driving task. In April of 2009, the Ontario government passed a new law that prohibits the use of hand-held wireless communication devices or hand-held electronic entertainment devices while driving. The use of hands-free devices will still be permitted and you can still use hand-held devices in emergency situations, such as calls to 911. The law also prohibits viewing display screens unrelated to driving such as laptops and DVD players.5 Using a hand-held or hands-free cell phone while driving makes a collision four times more likely. In fact, using a cell phone affects what a driver sees, reduces reaction time and changes the way drivers react - especially in heavy traffic. Motor vehicle collisions are the greatest single cause of traumatic workplace deaths in Ontario.

• Technology devices such as laptops, MP3s and headphones; • Reading maps or other material; • Grooming activities; • Eating or drinking; • Note taking; • Conversing with passengers; • Tending to children or pets; • Adjusting in-vehicle controls (radio, climate control and CD player). The following are some tips to help reduce driver distraction: • Put reading material in trunk if tempted to read; • Attend to personal grooming and plan your route before leaving; • Identify and preset your vehicle’s climate control, radio and CD player; • Make it a habit to use your cell phone only when parked, have a passenger take the call or let the caller go to voice mail; • Do not engage in emotional or complex conversation; • If you are hungry or thirsty, take a break.

Emergencies

Having a cellular phone in your vehicle can be an important safety aid for drivers and passengers, whether for personal safety or for reporting a crime or a collision. If you must use your cell phone in an emergency that threatens your safety, consider the following tips:

• Pull over safely if conditions allow; • Keep emergency calls as brief as possible; • Alert the caller that you are on the road; • End conversations immediately if driving conditions or situations become hazardous (for example, inclement weather, roadway construction, high-speed or highvolume traffic).

CAR SAFETY In the province of Ontario, seat belts are mandatory for all passengers, and child safety seats are mandatory for all children up to the age of eight.

CAR SEATS • Child car seats or booster seats are required for children up to the age of 8, weighing less than 80lbs and who stand less than 4 feet 9 inches tall. • Car crashes are the number one cause of death for Canadian children. • Properly used child car seats and booster seats can significantly reduce the chance of children being hurt and/ or killed in a collision. • Many car seats are installed improperly. Common errors include not tightening the seat belt and harness enough, and not properly using a tether strap when required. • For additional information on child booster seats, toddler forward-facing seats and infant rear-facing seats, visit www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/safety/smartlove. Seat Belts4 • Effective December 1, 2006, in Ontario, every person travelling in a motor vehicle must wear a seat belt or use a child safety seat. The penalty for seat belt infractions is a fine between $60 and $500. Convicted offenders will receive two demerit points. • Drivers are responsible for ensuring that passengers under 16 years of age are using the seat belt or an appropriate child car seat. • Wearing your seat belt properly will dramatically increase your chance of surviving a motor vehicle collision. • Since seat belts were made mandatory, the number of people killed and injured in collisions in Ontario has steadily dropped.

PEDESTRIAN SAFETY • Cross at marked crosswalks or traffic lights, not in the middle of the block or between parked cars. • Make sure drivers see you before you cross. • Cross when traffic has come to a complete stop; • At a traffic light, cross at the beginning of a green light. Do not cross once the “Don’t Walk” signal begins to flash or once the light has turned to yellow. Never cross on a red light; • Watch for traffic turning at intersections or entering and leaving driveways.

• Wear bright or light-coloured clothing or reflective strips, when walking in dusk or darkness. • low across the hips.

BICYCLE SAFETY Cycling is a fun, healthy activity and an inexpensive way to get around. • Be equipped • Know the rules • Watch for hazards • Ride responsibly • Safety Equipment • Helmets In Ontario, it is the law that every cyclist under the age of 18 must wear an approved bicycle helmet.

To check a proper fit: • There should be two finger widths between your eyebrows and the helmet. • The straps should be flat against the face. • The side straps should meet just below the ear making a V-shape under your ear lobe. • The chin strap should be fastened snugly with enough room to fit one finger between your chin and the strap. • Use the sizing pads provided with the helmet to adjust the fit. Be seen and heard Because bicycles are one of the smallest vehicles on the road, it is important for cyclists to be as visible as possible to other road users at all times.

Lighting By law your bicycle must have a white front light and a red rear light or reflector when you ride between one-half hour before sunset and one-half hour after sunrise. As well, the law requires white reflective strips on the front forks and red reflective strips on the rear stays.

Clothing Clothing can improve or reduce visibility. Yellow and white stand out best at night; dark colours are difficult to see. Pedal reflectors and reflective material on wrists, ankles, heels, clothing and helmets help others see you.

Dawn and Dusk When riding directly into or away from the sun at these times, leave extra room and be ready for sudden stops or swerves by traffic around you. Be particularly alert at intersections and scan carefully.

Be Heard Bicycles are very quiet vehicles, so it is important to warn other cyclists and pedestrians of your approach. By law, all bikes must have a working bell or horn to announce your approach. At times it is just as effective and more courteous to shout something like “passing on the left” when overtaking other cyclists and pedestrians.

Report confirms technology change a wise move: ARH John.carter@metroland.com

EMC news – Arnprior Regional Health’s move to digital direct radiography last year was a smart decision in the fight against breast cancer, say local health officials. ARH issued a news release last week noting that Cancer Care Ontario has just released the finding of a comprehensive study “conclusively confirming” that digital direct radiography (DR) is “significantly more effective” than digital computed radiography (CR) at detecting breast cancer. The provincial government has responded by announcing CR technology will be phased out in the province and encouraging all physicians and patients to schedule mammography screening that uses DR technology. ARH has been using DR Technology to screen mammography patient since last August. It had determined that the superior imaging technology is the best equipment to use for its two mammography services, the Ontario Breast Screening Program and Diagnostics. “Digital mammography is a new era of breast imaging,” explained radiologist Dr. Frank Lee. “The use of digital technology allows superior imaging of the breasts, compared to previous conventional films. This is particularly the case for women with dense

breasts. “As well, digital mammograms can sometimes reduce the number of return visits, or call backs … since the images can be manipulated to enhance visualization of structures such as calcifications,” he said. “It truly is a major enhancement for breast imaging at Arnprior Regional Health.” If you are over 50 you may self-refer to the Ontario Breast Screening Program at 613-623-7962, ext. 359. If you are under the age of 50 and require a mammogram, speak with your family doctor. If you are a survivor of breast cancer, you can have follow-up screens done at ARH through a referral from your doctor. Meanwhile, the Ontario Association of Medical Radiation Sciences (OAMRS), whose members are the experts in performing mammographic examinations whether for breast screening or the detection of other breast abnormalities, has applauded in a news release the decision of the provincial government to replace CR mammographic with DR technology. The association calls it “a great first step to provide quality care to Ontario patients” and is in line with its efforts to have the government modernize “antiquated and inadequate” legislation dealing with diagnostic imaging and patient radiation safety.

Taking the fight against cancer to the top Scotiabank Arnprior branch manager Stacey Kelly has launched a campaign to raise an impressive $5,000 for the June 7 Renfrew County Relay for LIfe. And if she reaches her goal, Kelly has vowed to shave her head. A cancer survivor herself, Kelly has been participating in the event for the past 14 years in Petawawa and is this year acting as chair. It’s a cause important to just about everyone, said Kelly. “It’s a great cause. Cancer affects two in five Canadians. This is a great way to give back to the community,” she said. Donations can be made at the bank or visit the Canadian Cancer Society website.

EDUCATION

Connected to your community

ADHS student named to provincial advisory council EMC news – An Arnprior District High School Grade 9 student has been given the ear of the province’s education minister. Oliver Jacob Gardiner who helped organize a Free the Children club at the school has been appointed to the Minister of Education’s Student Advisory Council (MSAC) for 2013. He also serves on the ADHS student council and before that was active in student affairs at Walter Zadow Public School. As an MSAC member, Gardiner is one of 60 students ranging from Grades 7 to 12 from all parts of the education system and regions of the province. Members, who serve one-year terms, share their ideas and advice with Education Minister Liz Sandals “on how to ensure Ontario’s schools remain the best in the world.” The council is about empowering youth to “be the change,” says a news release announcing Gardiner’s appointment. “Council members think big, speak up and take action to help other students across the province,” it explains. “They share perspectives and act as change agents by expressing their views directly to the Minister of Education.” This was the second year Gardiner has applied for council membership. He was accepted last year but realized he was unable to attend the two Toronto meetings with the education minister and withdrew. When he knew he would be avail-

Grade 9 Arnprior District High School student Oliver Jacob Gardiner will represent Zone 3 as a member of the Ministry’s Student Advisory Council. able to attend this year, he promptly re-applied and was successful. Students interested in the position apply online, answering several questions on issues affecting the applicant’s school and with what activism the student has previously been involved. G spent five years on Walter Zadow Public School’s student council before graduating last year. He sits on the ADHS student council in his first year at high school. He helped organize WZPS’ Free the Children club. When he graduated to

ADHS, he also helped start the same club for his high school and has organized fundraisers to help children in Haiti receive clean water. Gardiner explains his experience with the Free the Children clubs is what has drawn him to MSAC. “I want to give students a voice and that connects to what MSAC does,” he said. Gardiner attended the first MSAC meeting on May 6 when the 60 members received an address from Sandals and workshopped with each other on ideas that may improve student and school life. His next job is to contact all the student and parent councils in the 31 schools making up the Renfrew County District School Board to get their input before meeting with MSAC again in August. Gardiner says he’s looking forward to it. “It will be interesting to hear what other students think and what kind of issues their schools are facing,” he said. After the second meeting, it will be his job to bring back the feedback and hopefully use the information to formulate positive change that can help all schools in Ontario. “I want to make a difference in education in Ontario for the many generations to come,” Gardiner said. “I want to help create a safe learning environment that promotes diversity and leadership so that students can achieve excellence in anything they put their minds to.

ADHS alumni to hold 20-year reunion in July EMC news - Platform shoes, barbwire tattoos and Nirvana tshirts were in vogue the last time the Arnprior District High School class of 1993 was together. After 20 years, the shoes maybe flatter, the tattoos covered up and the t-shirts worn in secrecy on laundry day, but the school spirit remains. So the alumni students are holding a reunion at the Nick Smith Centre on July 13 featuring the musical talent of Big Picture. Tickets cost $25 and the event starts at 8 p.m. While the organizing committee is concentrating on contacting all 186 ADHS graduates from 1993, alumni from every year are welcome to attend. But the graduates of ‘93 weren’t ready to settle for just one evening of fun. They have dedicated July 12 to 14 as officially Alumni Weekend. The alumni have not forgotten about the younger generation. They are holding an ‘I LOVE ADHS’ fundraising campaign, selling stickers and gear. The money raised will help a future ADHS graduate obtain postsecondary school education through a bursary. Themed t-shirts, hoodies and stickers can be purchased from Pe-

ter Anas’ business class at ADHS and through their student store, The Hub. I Love ADHS stickers can also be bought at Pete’s Computer Solutions, Mulvihill Insurance and MacPherson’s Plumbing for $2. The organizing committee is encouraging alumni to post photographs of themselves on its Facebook group (I LOVE ADHS) sporting their stickers or clothing. As part of its fundraising, the group will help run a Policing Partnership community bingo at the Arnprior Legion Monday, June 17. The proceeds from the first game will go toward the bursary. The ‘93 class is also in the midst of discussion with the owners of East Side Marios, The Prior, Danny Mac’s Pub and John Street Pub to organize more events, such as a possible Red and White Pub night on July 12 at 8 p.m. for all alumni to mingle with graduates from all years. Tickets for the 20-year reunion can be purchased online at www.adhs93.com or in person at MacPherson’s Plumbing and Mulvihill Insurance in Arnprior. More information can be found by contacting Karen Barsoski at barsoski@hotmail.com.

Make The Move To Arnprior! Riverwood Estates on the Madawaska River. Only 5 homes remain, or let us build your dream home on one of only 3 available lots.

MIKE YEAS/

Boating season has arrived Late last week, there was a flurry of activity down at the Arnprior marina as workers took advantage as the high waters of the Madawaska receded to put the docks in the river for another season. After hoisting the wooden docks into the water, workers pulled them together and carefully secured them.

Flood warning reduced to watch EMC news - The Ministry of Natural Resources has lowered the flood advisory status for Renfrew County: The Flood Warning in place for the Ottawa River from Westmeath to Chats Lake is reduced to Flood Watch. The Flood Watch in place for

Golden Lake on the upper Bonnechere River has been removed. Golden Lake levels have receded below the upper limit established in the water management plan. The public is still reminded that streams and rivers are very dangerous at this time of year.

top quality scoring opportunities but were unable to convert. Too many unforced errors hampered the team’s ability to get into the high tempo game it prefers to play, he explained. However, ADHS bounced back strongly to win the third-place match 15-5 over LaSalle of Kingston. A more composed performance resulted in ADHS controlling play and scoring three well worked team tries, reported Wallace. The Redmen were the youngest team at the tournament by a wide margin with about 75 per cent of their roster being Grade 9s and 10s. “The future is bright for this group if they have the motivation and commitment necessary to excel at the top level of high school girls rugby,” said Wallace.

ACC elects new president John Wahay

Arnprior Curling Club

EMC sports - The Arnprior Curling Club elected a new president May 16, replacing Sandra Tait, whose term of office has finished, with Don Palmer. Palmer and his wife Regina only recently moved to Arnprior from Winnipeg when he retired from Manitoba Public Insurance. His role at MPI was vice-president of finance. He brings to the curling club a wealth of experience in financial budgeting and forecasting. Asked what he would like to see as goals for the club during his tenure, he responded that he is still getting used to the lay of the land but sees there is an immediate need to concentrate on membership expansion, especially focusing on younger members. “I personally love the game and think it has much to offer to all ages,” he said. He was also asked what attracted him to the Arnprior club. He responded that he’s really amazed at the enthusiasm of the existing membership. “Everyone loves to curl, but also has a real sense of community to pitch in wherever

Emon quipped that he and Arnprior Reeve Walter Stack are so committed to the cause they gain several pounds over winter just so they can shed it for the challenge. to the young kids inside Neat Cafe at the launch, “You people are going to be the most important advocates for us. We really appreciate you being here.” Shawna Babcock, chair of the activity network for Renfrew County, and Jeff Mills, chair of the Mississippi Mills Bicycle Run, are spearheading the challenge. Mills noted that extra points are awarded in various ways; “It very much an appreciative challenge where we’ll give you extra points if you where your helmet. We’ll give you extra points

if you are under 16 because we want to promote children to cycle. “We’ll give you extra points if you are over 65, we want older people to stay active. If you choose your bike over your car to go to the library, to go to work or to go shopping, we’ll give you extra points,” Mills said. One message they want to relay through the challenge is to prevent heart disease, said Jennifer Harris of the University of Ottawa Heart Institute. “One of the biggest ways to do that is by working with the schools.”

EMC news - The challenge is on! Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon and Lanark County counterpart Bill Dobson officially launched the Silver Chain Challenge last Friday at the Neat Cafe in Burnstown. The Silver Chain Challenge is a friendly competition running until June 30 between Lanark County and Renfrew County to promote improved health and well-being in both counties. Residents are urged to dust off their bikes, put on their shoes or participate in any form of active transportation. They can then record their performance, and monitor how the county is doing at silverchainchallenge.ca any time during the month of June. It’s the first year that Lanark County has challenged Renfrew County. Partners at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute are promoting and challenging both counties to be more active for healthier hearts. Renfrew Warden Peter Emon encouraged all to get out to bike or walk. “Physical activity doesn’t have to be really hard work. It can be enjoyable and educational at the same time,” he said. The county has an investment to put proper shoulders on its roads over the next 10-plus years to make walking and cycling safer, Emon added. About 35 cyclists attended from the Renfrew, Arnprior, Pakenham and White Lake areas. As well, Grade 2 and 7 students of Renfrew’s Our Lady of Fatima School participated in a walk from the Burnstown Beach to Neat Cafe at the May 24 opening. Said Lanark Warden Dobson

But awareness includes people of all ages, she said. “For people that are at risk of heart disease, we now have a program where we can support them making those changes that they need to make to try and live a health lifestyle,” She said the Silver Chain Challenge is a great way to start by logging their kilometres in June biking or walking, as well as encourage a non-exerciser in their life to get involved in the challenge. Olympian John Edwards, a councillor in Lanark County, said it’s great to see the neighbouring counties working together. He said, you don’t just go to the Olympics. “It’s about enjoying doing something, the physical activity you are doing, enjoying it. It could be canoeing, it could be walking, it could be gymnastics. If something more comes out of it, we’ll celebrate that.” Dr. Paula Stewart of Lanark said promoting physical activity outdoors has a tremendous impact. “Kids who are outdoors learn better, there is better focus, more creativity, they get along better, and that applies to adults as well,” Dr. Stewart said. Physical activity also challenges and slows down the aging process, Dr. Stewart said. “Whether it’s children, whether it’s adults, whether it’s seniors, we need physical activity, and we need to be out in nature,” she added. Babcock thanked everyone in advance for their participation in the challenge, and for realizing that trails, roads and shoulders are free and accessible to everybody, are safe, and need to be used. The winning county will receive the Wardens Plate at the conclusion of the challenge.

Twardek to follow soccer dreams to England Sydney Ross Co-op Student

EMC news – It’s the opportunity of a life-time for 16-year-old Arnprior District High School student Kris Twardek. Back in November after recovering from a broken ankle, Twardek, who lives in Kinburn, auditioned for a spot in England’s Youth Millwall Football Club, based in London. The judges were quite impressed with Kris’ considerable soccer talent. “It’s nerve-racking,” said Twardek during an interview. “But being in a professional environment brings out the best in you.” Twardek was always a fan of soccer, following the footsteps of his brother, Will. Kris was influenced by his older brother in his progression in the game in which he has become so accomplished. He started playing soccer with the West Carleton Soccer Club, He then joined the Ottawa South United Team when he was nine years old. Twardek joined a roster of about 18 playYIRKA TWARDEK/SUBMITTED ers. Kris Twardek wearing a Millwall Football He says six or seven of his teamClub jersey. mates have remained a part of the team

since he joined. Coaches Paul Harris and Russell Shaw and his teammates are proud of Twardek’s achievement. The Millwall Youth Team has players 1618 years of age, and Twardek will be playing with them for at least two years.

JUNE DEPARTURE

He’ll be leaving for London in June after he finishes his Grade 10 year at ADHS. The schooling in London will be different for Twardek. The team members will be going to school together. However, because of their focus on soccer, they will be attending school only once a week. He will be staying with a team member during his stay. Twardek says he’s received a great amount of support from his parents and friends. “It’s a step,” he said. “After this, I hope to get into the men’s (professional) league.” Twardek’s hard work and incredible talent has certainly paid off, and he has fulfilled the first step toward his dream of playing in a professional environment. As part of the professional world, Twardek will be paid a small salary.

Focusing on skills The youth soccer season got underway in Arnprior last week with the U4s and U6s taking to the fields. Right, the U4’s Red team members Jacob Ralph, Lorelai Howard, Wyatt Sparling, Erik Laska, Ainslie Coulas and Lexi Fraser get in some ball control practice. Youth soccer has implemented a new emphasis on skills this year, giving players more practice time. At one of the warm-up exercises, the coaches were trying to teach the young players to protect their ball, so they said they were monsters out to steal them. One coach came up to a little girl pretending to be a monster. She looked up, shrieked in fear (loudly too), grabbed her ball and ran. Another promptly sat on his ball to protect it. The parents were having a great chuckle at it all. Of course, there were the usual wrong way break-aways, and the odd player wandering off to pick a flower or two. It was all in good fun and the kids had a ball.

achieve national carded status and coaches improve their skills over the long term. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to be ready for 2014, so I can perform my best and know that I did everything I could to be prepared,â&#x20AC;? said Leslie. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being an athlete does have a cost, but with the Petro Canada FACE Program grant I will be able to afford time off work to train and attend World Cups that would otherwise be hard to afford. I feel honoured to have so much support from so many people and hope to make everyone proud.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We would like to congratulate each of the 2013 FACE recipients,â&#x20AC;? said Suncor director Steven Keith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For the past 25 years we have been fortunate to support athletes and coaches by providing funding so they can focus on achieving their dreams.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good day for sport, anytime our partners can dedicate resources that go directly to Canadian athletes and coaches,â&#x20AC;? said Marcel Aubut, Canadian Olympic Committee president. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These grants will help athletes and coaches who are on the cusp of breaking through nationally and internationally to make that crucial next step,â&#x20AC;? said GaĂŠtan Tardif, the newly-elected CPC. One of the other recipients is wrestler Genevieve Haley of Shawville and her coach Paul Ragusa.

Writing my own happy ending with CHEOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s help

By Vienna Arbic with Isabelle Mailloux Pulkinghorn

My name is Vienna and I am nine years old. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in grade three, play defense on my hockey team, and enjoy doing crafts and writing stories. I love spending time with my parents Sherry and Richard Arbic, and my friends. And I have cancer. My â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;realâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; life had to be put on hold while the doctors at CHEO help me get rid of cancer. Mine is called Germ cell tumor, a very rare form of brain cancer - and I want it to go away. If this were a story I came up with, there wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be a port-a-cath, operations and chemotherapy

involved. I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need lumbar punctures and I could be home with my parents and my dogs instead of in the hospital. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be playing hockey and graduating grade three with everyone in my class. If this were a story I made up, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be funny like the Robert Munsch books that I love so much. But cancer is serious.

they knew something was wrong with me, had it not been for the concussion itself and for the team of CHEO neurologists, endocrinologists and oncologists who care for me, my story could have had a sad ending.

One day at hockey practice I hurt my head and ended up with a concussion. I had all the classic symptoms, and even after the prescribed rest period I was not getting better. I was sleeping 18 hours a day, falling asleep at school and again later in the afternoon. I had severe headaches that even the pain medicine would not relieve. I had no short-term memory and my parents say I just wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t myself.

But now, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hope.

Chemotherapy is not fun - it actually makes me very sick. I lost my hair and I look very different because of the cortisone, but it is helping me get better. It is shrinking the size of my tumor, and that is great news! Once the last cycle of chemotherapy reduce the tumor even more and hopefully make it So my parents took me to CHEO. An go away forever. I hope weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re done by the end of endocrinologist ordered a CT scan and it detected the summer so I can start my hockey season and go a tumor in the center of my brain that was pressing back to school. Mom and dad have already found against my thyroid, pituitary and hypothalamus special hockey equipment that will protect my port (where the doctors inject the medications). Vassilyadi, a CHEO neurosurgeon, installed a I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to get back to my real life. Until then, I will take my medicine, continue chemo and rest so pressure; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when I started to feel much better. The oncologists told us that Germ cell tumors in the brain are very rare but the good news is that they Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funny because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always wanted to become usually respond well to radiation; although some do a doctor when I grow up. Now, as mom says, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m need a mix of radiation, chemotherapy and surgery. getting an insiderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s view and that will help make me be a great doctor someday. I also want to keep In my case, we quickly started with chemotherapy. writing, so maybe Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll become a doctor-writer. But Had it not been for my parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; persistence to one thing is certain: my stories will always have push for physicians to investigate further because happy endings. Just like this one will.

Soggy, scenic run for Fitzroy Over the Carp participants Runners from six area schools converge at Fitzroy Provincial Park Sherry Haaima

sherry.haaima@metroland.com

EMC sports - Elementary school students emerged tired and soggy but nonetheless triumphant at the Arnprior Optimist Club Fitzroy over the Carp cross country run last week. The annual run was held at Fitzroy Provincial Park May 23 after being delayed a day due to stormy weather. That rain and Thursday morning showers made for quite a wet day at the park for those involved. Six local schools participated in the event. Trophies were presented to the school teams with the fastest times overall. In the junior (Grades 5-6) girls division, John XXlll picked up the prize while McNab Public School captured the junior boys trophy. Walter Zadow earned the intermediate (Grades 7-8) girls trophy and St. Joseph’s Catholic School in Arnprior picked up the honours in the intermediate boys division. Organizers expressed special thanks to the Optimist Club for supporting the event and to all the parents and runners who braved the rain.

Small business advised on how to keep employees safe Patricia Leboeuf

pleboeuf@metroland.com

EMC business - An injured employee will not only cost a business time and money, but can potentially force it to close, Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce (GACC) members were told May 21. For each dollar spent on health care an estimated 65 or so more are spent on things such as fighting fines, litigations, building damages and production delays. Loss of reputation can also cause long-term loss of revenue. “One seemingly small injury can start costing a lot of money,” said workplace safety and prevention services consultant Sheila James. “In business economics, it’s not necessarily that you want to maximize your profits, but that you want to avoid loss,” she added. She was invited by the GACC to discuss with members on how to prevent such dire happenings. Having each procedure written down will single-handedly protect a business when the Ministry of Labour (MLO) comes investigating, she said. “You are probably doing a great job of safety in your work place, but do you have it written down?” asked James. “Because here is what is going to happen if somebody gets hurt or killed, perish the thought. The Ministry of Labour guy is going to come and say, ‘You didn’t do this, you didn’t do that’.”

If it is not in writing, the employer will have the difficult task of proving that the employee was informed of the proper procedure. The burden of proof will fall upon the employer and a lengthy court case can ensue. It can become a ‘he says, she says’ situation, said James. With written safety procedures available in place, time spent in court will be dramatically cut down. It isn’t difficult to do. “Start carrying a notebook or something and start writing it down,” said James. “You know what the dangers are. It might take six weeks or six months, but you have to start somewhere.” “As long as you have something, it’s better than nothing,” she added. Last year, out of 260 businesses the Ministry of Labour visited, they gave out 1,070 orders, including 34 stop works, which means the business had to close their doors until the situation is rectified. 2013 BLITZ

The Ministry of Labour tracks accident and injury through the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB). A trend immerged showing that seasonal and young workers were at the highest risk of getting hurt. Small businesses are also a target for spot visits. This year’s blitz will target these types of businesses, particularly those with youth and new workers, she added.

“Small businesses don’t always have the resources to have a health and safety program and have all this stuff in writing,” said James. “It almost seems not fair that they would go after them, but that’s where they see the most injuries. “ The most common fine given is based off the law, “the employer will take every precaution that is reasonable in the circumstance.” It is used as a coverall for the MTO when specific incidents cannot be found in the law books. Other common laws used are failure to properly train employees and failure to properly maintain equipment. Small things such as not having the green Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act and Regulation book or a health and safety policy displayed in a prominent area can results in orders from the MLO. “It’s a huge headache, for any employer, (one) you don’t want,” said James. There is a moral as well as legal obligation to make a workplace as safe as possible. “You don’t want any of your family members to get hurt on the job, do you?” said James. “You have family members at your workplace,” she added. “They just aren’t your family. They are somebody else’s. We don’t want anybody getting hurt or killed.” The MLO has further information on workplace safety as well as the upcoming targeted businesses for 2013-2014 inspections on their website www.labour.gov.on.ca.

Schriver and Sexton prevail in Wolves Den contest Steve Newman

steve.newman@metroland.com

EMC news – An Arnprior District High School student, Connor Schriver, was one of the main winners in a take-off on the Dragons’ Den competition last week. The official name was Wolves’ Den Entrepreneurship Valley-Style – similar to the CBC television version of Dragons’ Den where entrepreneurs seek financial support from a panel of five multi-millionaires. In both events, the contestants pitch their business plan, in flashy or not so flashy style, crunching numbers, displaying product and saying how and when their company is, or will be, profitable. The Renfrew and Area Chamber of Commerce’s inaugural Wolves’ Den occurred at Renfrew’s O’Brien Theatre May 17 before an audience of about 50 spectators. Up for grabs for each of the two winners, in the youth (18 and under) and adult (19 and over) categories, was $1,000 in cash and more than $6,500 in business products or services. When the nearly four-hour event was over, the winners were Schriver, an ADHS Grade 12 student who sells his own clothing wear, and Cobden resident Keith Sexton, who pitched

mobile phone applications for local businesses. The judges all have a history of financial or business success, including 19-year-old racing car driver and Algonquin College student Nathan Blok of Beachburg who has appeared on Dragons Den. So has Rob Campbell, president of the Renfrew and Area Chamber of Commerce, who said he was extremely pleased with the inaugural Wolves’ Den. “We weren’t sure how it would go over,” said Campbell, who credited local businesses with taking control of the event after seeing its potential. “It originally started just for youth, to see if we could engage them entrepreneurship, but we had so many adults come forward with business ideas, so we opened it up to two categories,” said Campbell of the event. After an “absolutely superb” debut of the Wolves’ Den, he said the chamber is already looking forward to a 2014 edition. More than anything, the president said he hopes the event generates more area businesses. “Failing that, even if some of these people don’t pursue the business they’ve shown here, most of these people have shown they have an entrepreneurial spirit, and they will do something some day,” said Campbell. “Some of these youth were unbelievable … they’re going to be successful, no matter what they do.” Schriver, 17, expressed his pleasure with winning the youth category after pitching his company, which makes sports clothing that features original designs. DROP Apparel’s acronym stands for Driven to Rule Our Present. The same company, says the avid white-water kayaker, is all about promoting youth outdoor activities. “It’s a great feeling (winning),” said Schriver. “The awards, of course, are wonderful to have. But the experience is invaluable, but being able to present yourself and market yourself is just as important as to be able to sell your product,” added Schriver, who told the judging panel a portion of his sales will go into bettering third-world countries. “Being forced into a situation where you

have to present yourself in a reasonable manner is really key. Being forced to doing that in front (of others) is just a valuable experience.” The other junior entrants were Caroline Rose, 12, of Pembroke, with dog treats for dogs with or without allergies; St. Joseph’s Catholic High School student Kaitlyn Kargus of Haley Station who plans to operate a chip truck this summer at the former Ross Mineview Public

School; and Burnstown residents Zach Wroe, 12, and brother Alex, 9, of Boat Boyz. They will be selling ice cream products via boat on the Madawaska River. “At first it was kind of scary,” said Zach of competing in the Wolves’ Den. “But then I realized they were really nice, and they didn’t criticize my mistakes.” Adding some colour and levity to the event were the Wroes’ bright Boat Boyz caps and neon green t-shirts, with Boy 1 or Boy 2 marked on the back.

Uncle Lou’s visits were much like Christmas EMC lifestyle - Very important, was my Uncle Lou. Didn’t he just get an award for working on the marble in the Waldorf Astoria in the big city of New York? We even had a chip to prove it. Uncle Lou it was, who at least once a year descended on our farm out in Northcote to bring us unspeakable joy. My mother’s brother, one of the four who

made up her family, had no children of his own when we were youngsters, and when he came it was like Christmas all over again. Although our Christmases back then where nothing to write home about! Uncle Lou often came without telling Mother in advance. She would much prefer if he would at least send us a letter that he was on his way. Then the house could be torn apart from top to bottom, so that everything shone like glass ... our feather mattress taken off the bed upstairs, Hometown Store the felt one from Mother and Father’s bed hauled up to replace it, braided rugs beaten with the broom on the clothes line, and the red and white checked oilcloth on the table All Tractors & Lawnmowers On Sale in the kitchen replaced with a white Friday May 31st – Thursday June 6th linen one Mother had brought to the farm. But when he came unannounced, always on a Saturday, we knew he was on his way before he hit the yard. He would start blowing the horn of his big black Buick when he turned into our long lane, and never let up until he came to a screeching halt at the back door. Mother had time only to change Regular Store Hours SEARS HOMETOWN STORE her apron, and smooth back her hair, Mon-Wed: 9:30am – 6:00pm 375 Daniel St. South Thur & Fri: 9:30am – 9:00pm Arnprior Shopping Centre and then she would cry. I could never Sat:: 9:00am – 5:30pm Arnprior, ON, =K7S 3K5 Sun: 11:00am – 5:00pm understand if she was so happy why Phone: (613) 623-4202 she would cry. My sister Audrey said it was from sheer joy! I thought he looked like he should be a member of parliament. He always wore grey flannel trousers, pressed knife-sharp, and flannel shirts open at the neck. Uncle Lou was tall, and as my sister Audrey once said, he even looks important! We five children never took our eyes off the back seat of the big Buick. We knew for a fact, that inside his big brown cow-hide suitcases would be presents beyond belief. Always, there were yards of silk for Mother. And a new purse. Big. With gold clasps, and long handles. And we had no idea how he knew our sizes, but each of us would get a new piece of clothing, and everything always fit like it had been made for us! Uncle Lou would first stop at a grocery store in Renfrew, and there 290 DANIEL ST. S, ARNPRIOR would be grapes and bananas, and

real ham, not like we had in the smoke house, but big slices ... thick ... just right for sandwiches. It would take ages to unpack the Buick. And when it had been emptied, the brothers would carry the cow-hide suitcases up to the room my sister Audrey and I shared, and Uncle Lou would take over the bed, and we would move down to the creton couch in the kitchen. Mother’s cheeks would be red as tomatoes, and Father, who could never understand what all the fuss was about, would treat Uncle Lou like any other visitor who came out to the farm in Northcote. That meant he would still slurp his tea out of his saucer, and sit with his feet on the oven door at night reading the Ottawa Farm Journal or the Family Herald and Weekly Star. As the evenings wore on, Mother and Uncle Lou would talk about New York and the many years Mother lived there. And he would tell her about the changes ... how the elevated trains went for miles and miles now, and how a place called the Bronx was the place to live. And Mother would listen wide-eyed and ask questions, and the talk would go on and on. Uncle Lou had a wonderful singing voice, and without fail, every night Mother would get out her harmonica and he would sing and she played. And then she would set the mouthorgan aside and they would sing in harmony ... songs they both knew, and my very favourite was one called, “I had a dream dear” ... I thought it was very sad, but beautiful. And sometimes I would see a tear roll down Mother’s cheek when the song was over. And I knew she would be remembering those happy years when she lived in the city she loved before she left for the backwoods of Renfrew County. Even though Uncle Lou helped Father around the farm, he never seemed to get a mark on those grey flannel pants and shirt. And every night, when he took off his shiny shoes, he

buffed them with a cloth made especially for that purpose. And he had wood forms he inserted into his shoes when he wasn’t wearing them. My sister Audrey said she was quite sure all important men did the same thing with their shoes when they took them off at night. I couldn’t for the life of me ever see my father going to that trouble with the black laced boots he wore to church on Sunday! And while Uncle Lou was visiting us we would have trips into Renfrew to the picture show ... at least twice during his stay. And we would have cracker jacks to munch on during the movie, and always we stopped for ice cream on the way home at Briscoe’s General Store, which I was grateful stayed open every night until at least 11 p.m.! Too soon it would be time for Uncle Lou to pack up and head back to New York City. Whole quarters would be thrust into each of our hands, and I knew he would give Mother a few bills too which she would immediately put in the blue sugar bowl with her egg money. Everett would swing wide the gate going out to the lane, and with the horn going full blast, Uncle Lou would spin the tires on the Buick and he was gone. And there would be such a silence in the old log house, and I would wonder if it would ever be the same again. Mother would cry silently, wiping her eyes and blowing her nose into her apron, and that night our prayers would be for Uncle Lou’s safe trip to New York. And when it came time for our silent prayers each of us were expected to say before we left Mother’s knee, I would pray that Uncle Lou would return soon. And it wasn’t only for the candy, the picture shows and the rides in the big black Buick, it was because his visit would bring Mother unspeakable joy and, for a time, release her from the bonds that held her prisoner on that farm in Renfrew County.

Golden Valley Seniors gear up for 30th anniversary Janet Tobio

Arnprior Legion

EMC lifestyle – Did you know a group of senior members of the Arnprior Legion started the Golden Valley Seniors in 1983? Did you know quite a number of those same people are still members today? Did you know the group became independent in 1999, but is still keeping close ties with the Arnprior Legion and enjoy a grandfather clause that covers the use of the Legion facilities?

There are always organized outings with several different seniors organization and we are very pleased that they always consider the GVS as their club. Members have always stepped up to take their turn as executive members to be the organizers of the group, planning entertainment and trips and fundraising events and keeping records and managing the finances. Good management over the years has produced a solid bank account and as the membership “matures” and the ambition for fundraising wanes slightly, we are fortunate enough to be able to subsidize some events and trips. A special event for early fall is planned to celebrate an astonishing 30 years of good times and memories and invite all ex-Golden Valley Seniors members to join in. Bring stories, pictures, books. Prepare for laughs, friends, music, good food and a good time for everyone. If you’ve not been joining us at our meetings for the last while, get in touch and let us know you’d like to join us at the GVS’ 30th anniversary celebration. We all look forward to hearing your memories of a great organization that enjoy being together as a seniors group. Watch for more information on the October celebration. The Golden Valley Seniors meet the fourth Wednesday of each month, September to June at 2 p.m. in the Legion Hall.

Galilee Centre to host Main Street country singer in concert June 13

SUBMITTED

Liz Sterling will entertain in a concert hosted by the Galilee Centre and Main Street School of Music June 13.

EMC entertainment - Galilee Centre is teaming up with Arnpriorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Main Street School of Music to host talented local musician Liz Sterling in a concert Thursday, June 13. Sterling will perform a 7 p.m. house concert in the historic retreat centre of Galilee, with her beautiful custom-made guitar and sensitive mature voice, complemented with some amplification and a modest sound system. This is the second in a series of concerts at Galilee featuring area talent, and once again, the John Street music school is involved. In November 2012, Jeanika Benoit and Sarah Lyn Kidney, young singers and students of the Main Street School, performed at a highly successful evening concert at Galilee. This time, Sterling, also a Main Street School student, is being highlighted and an enjoyable evening of music and hospitality is sure to please many. All are welcome. The live concert combines the opportunity

for a local artist to be heard and appreciated, along with the chance to visit Galilee, and support its continuation as a hospitable haven for retreats, gatherings, recreation and community action. Sterling has been performing for the public for over four years, and has taken the stage at Ireneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pub in the Glebe in Ottawa, the Crazy Horse at the Centrum Plaza in Kanata, and Neat CafĂŠ in Burnstown, as well as being featured on the Kitchen Show of Valley Heritage Radio. She has also used her talents to support the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital at an annual CHEO benefit event, and performed at the Arnprior Farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Market as well as the local Canada Day event with Main Streetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a cappella group SING. For her Galilee concert, Sterling is planning to share both guitar and voice selections, along with several a cappella numbers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking forward to presenting not

only classic and contemporary country songs, but also adding touches of folk and gospel,â&#x20AC;? said Sterling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s close to Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll feature a few good â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;daddy songsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; too. It will be an enjoyable, friendly evening event for dads and their families, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy to share my music with old and new friends in this great setting.â&#x20AC;? Sterling is also a songwriter in her own right, and you are likely to be pleasantly surprised by hearing a few songs of her own creation. As well, after the concert, Galilee volunteers will provide refreshments and you will have the chance to chat with Sterling and socialize with other concert-goers. Advance tickets - $10 for adults, $5 for children under 12 - are available in Arnprior at Main Street School of Music and the Galilee Centre (613-623-4242, ext. 21). You may also pay at the door on the evening of June 13. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So, come on out, perhaps with dad or your favourite father figure, appreciate and enjoy.â&#x20AC;?

of a dearly loved husband, father, and grandfather Who passed away May 27, 2011 Everyday no matter where, Deep in our hearts you are there. Forget you, we never will, You left a place no one can fill.

In loving memory of

Lesley Graham who left us June 2, 2012 God saw you getting tired, A cure was not to be, He wrapped you His loving arms, And whispered come to me. You suffered much in silence, Your spirit did not bend, You faced your pain with courage, Until the bitter end. You tried so hard to stay with us, Your ﬁght was all in vain, God took you to His loving home, And freed you from your pain. A golden heart stopped beating, Two working hands at rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best. Love always & forever Michael J, Robyn, Ashley, Leicy-Ann & Trey, and families XXOO

You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be Scottish to enjoy Scottish Festival

If you think you have to have Scottish blood coursing through your veins to enjoy the annual Scottish Festival on Sunday, June 23, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. at the Waba Cottage Gardens in White Lake - part of McNab Days - think again. While the Scottish Festival began as a way to pay homage to the rich cultural heritage of the Township of McNab-Braeside, which was settled by Chief McNab, it has grown to be much more. Through the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Calling of the Clans,â&#x20AC;? a key signature event of the festival, families who reside in the township come together to celebrate their own unique heritage and history - First Nations, Scottish, German, Irish, Polish, and so on.

Annual General Meeting

To close the day, spectators can bid on and enjoy picnic lunches as part of the Celebrity Box Picnic Auction, all while listening to the finalists present their stories as part of the Bard contest. Bards were the most famous entertainers, highly respected and frequently wealthy in Scottish society. They were historians and held the memory of their people and their traditions alive. Come out and hear our own modern Bards. Come down June 23 to the Scottish Festival in White Lake. Admission is free, but goodwill donations to offset the costs of putting on such a magnificent festival will be accepted.

• June 14 – 17 The astrolabe that Samuel de Champlain purportedly used during his journey was lost near a small lake close to Cobden. Found in the 1830s and eventually acquired by the museum of civilization in Hull, this astrolabe will be visiting the Arnprior and District Museum for four days. On June 5, 1613 as Samuel de Champlain, French Explorer and cartographer, travelled up the Ottawa River he recorded in his journal that he entered a lake following a portage past rapids and saw a river that flowed into the lake from the south. Four hundred years later that lake is known as Chats Lake, the rapids have been converted into the Fitzroy Harbour hydro-electric dam and the river to the south is named the Madawaska. Samuel de Champlain was the first European to describe Chats Lake, later to be the waterfront of Arnprior and the body of water which residents use year round and take great pride in.

sweet. The rural setting and meditative pattern of the labyrinth will provide a unique and intimate environment for such a walk. She is inviting interested walkers to join her team or create a team of their own to raise awareness and fundraise by registering to walking the Labyrinth on Leckie Lane. With enough interest or sponsors the mini-walk could evolve to become the Burnstown/Ottawa Valley Region Ovarian Cancer Canada Walk of Hope. If you are interested, contact Cheryl by email at bittersweetandcraft@ gmail.com. As an incentive, all walk participants names will be entered in a draw to win door prizes donated by gallery artists and members of the community. Furthermore, sculptor Richard Gill will donate a relief sculpture for the leading participant who raises the most funds (Gill lost both his mother and sister to the disease). The walk will take place in the labyrinth on Leckie Lane on Sunday, Sept. 8 coinciding with the National Capital Walk of Hope in Ottawa. To register go to the website http:// www.ovariancancer.org where more details of the walk and the labyrinth will appear as plans evolve. You will also see updates at www.burnstown. ca/bittersweet/events. Of the 2,600 women diagnosed

with ovarian cancer each year in Canada, 70 per cent will not survive five years. With vague symptoms and no early detection test, ovarian cancer is Canada’s most fatal women’s cancer. Tragically, it takes the lives of too many of our mothers, sisters and daughters each year, devastating families in its wake. OVARIAN CANCER

A recent survey of Canadian researchers in the field of ovarian cancer concluded that $10 million is needed to make significant strides towards a reliable early screening test, improved treatments, and enhancing the quality of life for women living with this disease. Yet a recent study by Charity Intelligence Canada shows only 2.1 per cent of Canadian donations for cancer are directed at ovarian cancer. Research is the only means to overcoming ovarian cancer, but there is also a need to continue supporting women living with the disease and their families, as well as providing education and awareness for the general public and health care professionals. Unlike so many other causes, the work of Ovarian Cancer Canada is not duplicated by any other group - its work to overcome ovarian cancer and the attention it is giving to the other gynecological cancers is unique in Canada.

EMC events - Once again Burnstown’s Bittersweet Gallery owner Cheryl Babineau is planning to showcase the popular designs of Montreal designer Anne Marie Chagnon in a show June 1-11. The show will feature a special event Saturday, June 8 to raise funds and awareness about ovarian cancer and perhaps start a Walk of Hope in Burnstown. The spring trunk show features Chagnon’s latest collection called AliA. The gallery has represented the artist since 2000 and boasts the largest collection of the jeweller’s work outside of Quebec. Chagnon designs a completely new collection each year that always evokes her distinctive style. The AliA collection will include some of her exclusive limited edition designs. At last year’s event, Babineau created candles made by filling empty eggshells with soy and bees wax. The luminous eggs were so well received that they will again be given as an exclusive gift for those who donate, sponsor or purchase at the event. The egg contributes a befitting symbol of fertility, hope, love and the fragility of life. “AliA for alliance, allied, rallied. Alliance of nature and humans. AliA life, a heart; a bud; a drop; the wind that stirs movement,” explains Chagnon.
