Township library users get their deal McNab-Braeside council reluctantly approves library agreement on 3-2 vote John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC news – McNab-Braeside users of the Arnprior Public Library can breathe a sigh of relief. Township council agreed, on a 3-2 vote Tuesday, to approve a revised deal offered by Arnprior that would allow McNab-Braeside residents use of the library without having to pay the extra $60-a-household out-of-town fee. Council agreed to approve the agreement for the rest of this year as well as 2013. However, even councillors supporting the deal expressed concern about what the library and recreation deals with Arnprior would mean to future property tax levels in the township. Arnprior is expected to approve the deal at its council meeting Monday, June 25. The agreement ends several months of negotiations between the two municipalities over how and how much the township should pay for its residents to use the Nick Smith Centre and library. Council had almost a full house in attendance Tuesday, although the library supporters were much quieter than those at the recreation rally during the council meeting two weeks ago. The approval of the new deal was prompted in part by the approval of a two-year recreation deal. Deputy Mayor Christine Blimkie, who voted against the recreation deal, moved approval of a revised Arnprior library deal. “If the recreation users, who are far less than the library users, got what they want, the library supporters should get what they want too,” she said.

Heat off summer election with new budget Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news - The passage of the provincial budget Wednesday put an end to talk of a summertime Ontario election. While hot air and rising temperatures dominated the land this week, similar can be said about Queen’s Park on Wednesday. The minority Liberal budget was finally approved, but not after a bitter session that saw all parties hurling blame at each other. “All’s well that ends well,” Premier Dalton McGuinty said during question period. Late last week, the Liberals threatened to call an election for July 19 if the NDP didn’t moderate some of their

last-minute demands for more changes to the budget. However, in the end, the two sides came up with a budget both could support to avoid a summer vote. The Liberals say their 2012 budget sets out a plan to transform and strengthen the public and broader public sectors – to change the way the government delivers services while providing better value for money and better results. The plan does not include across-the-board cuts to public services. The government is projecting deficits of $14.8 billion in 2012-13, $12.8 billion in 2013-14 and $10.1 billion in 2014-15. The government projects a $0.5 billion surplus in 2017-18.

PC Leader Tim Hudak said the week of posturing by the Liberals and NDP came at the expense of action to rein in spending and kick-start job creation. “Ontario is a better place than we have seen over the past seven days,” Hudak said. “Sadly, it is also a poorer place. Eight months since the last election and not a penny saved. Instead, the overspending continues, when we need urgent action to get our fiscal house in order,” he said. “The more we delay, the more our debt piles up – putting at risk the sustainability of priorities Ontarians care most about – such as quality health care and excellence in education.”

McNab Days to celebrate township’s heritage, identity Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – Members of the media were treated to a sneak peak at some of the events that will unfold during this year’s McNab Days. And the consensus is that it promises to be a kilt-lifting good time. A flotilla, fly-in, Tartan run, heritage trail excursion and many more events will ensure there is something to satisfy everyone’s interests. The 10day festival, from June 22 to July 1, celebrates the township’s history, natural heritage and rural roots. Volunteers and township staff have been working hard to ensure the event will be a success. “We’re well set for an incredibly successful McNab Days,� Mayor Mary Campbell told council Tuesday. The festival will be kickstarted with a multicultural Calling of the Clans. Torches will be held high at the annual event this Friday, at 7 p.m. on the Waba Cottage Museum grounds. Billed as a way for newer residents to formally join the community, the ancient rite of the calling starts as dusk falls at 9 p.m. “Family heads, municipal leaders, organization and business representatives from all backgrounds are welcome to raise a torch, proclaim their history, and re-commit to the values of family, community, and clan so prized in McNabBraeside,� said organizer Heather Lang. Long-time community activist and naturalist Jim Ferguson lit a torch for media at the museum in the afternoon, explaining that in the old country the calling often signalled a rally to war. He joked that McNab Days’ calling will be far from ominous. He encouraged folks from all backgrounds to participate. However, first up on the June 7 media tour was a trip across the Ottawa to Bristol, Que., where the historic ‘Alligator warping tug’ was resting up for Braeside Riverdrive this Saturday, June 23. Alligator boats were a type of amphibious vehicle used in the forestry industry throughout the region and Maritime provinces of Canada and the northern United States from the mid-19th century to the beginning of the 20th century. The boats were so named because of their ability to travel between lakes by pulling themselves with a winch across land. They towed log booms across lakes and then portaged themselves using a winch to the next body of water. The rugged, steam-powered tugs were one of the pioneers in the mechanization of the forR0011468885

est industry in North America. The W.D. Stalker tug was pieced together from the remnants of three others found in the area. It is the only operational Alligator boat in the world, and will return to its maker in Simcoe after McNab Days. The riverdrive Saturday will include a flotilla of heritage river craft making its way from Norway Bay, Que., starting about 9 a.m. to at Red Pine Bay in Braeside for landing about noon. Some 40 boats are expected to participate this year, including newer models manned by anyone who wants to participate. “As much as we regret saying goodbye to our Alligator, we are excitedly anticipating the Beaver flying in at about 2 p.m. for the grand opening of the Braeside Beach, next door to Red Pine Bay,� Lang said. She explained that the de Havelin float plane is a feature of the Vintage Wings collection, and will be accompanied by modern ultralights and parachute landings from the Five-Mile High Parachute Club. (Next year will see a Float Plane Flyin Breakfast.) Coun. Brad MacIlquham, who played a major role in the re-opening of the beach, will cut the ribbon along with representatives of major sponsors Sullivan and Son and Ontario Power Generation. “Also on hand (for the Riverdrive and beach opening) will be artists’ displays, displays by organizers, a quilt display, wood carving, rope making, fiddlers and bluegrass bands,� Lang said. “The day ends with a pilgrimage to the Braeside United Church at 4:30 p.m., where there will be a barbecue, craft sale and entertainment.� Some of that entertainment and demonstrations were on hand in Bristol, at Peter and Barb Haughton’s waterfront property, during the media tour. The enthusiastic musicians played songs that shared stories of life on the river back in the day. Everyone was in their best period costumes, and when the voyageurs pushed off in their massive canoe, all those on hand appeared transported back in time for at least a split second. A Tartan Run and Sunday Stretch-Family Day takes place on June 24. From ancient rites to modern-day fitness, Lang explained, the first annual 5km Tartan Run is set to begin at 9 a.m. (registration starts at 8 a.m.) with the first 100 runners and walkers decked out in red-haired “Jimmy Tams,� provided in exchange for the $20 registration fee. The course starts at Usborne Street, moves to Sandy Hook

Entertainment was plentiful in Bristol Bay for members of the media. It promises to be even greater during the ten-day celebration. and Malloch Road, then back to Red Pine Bay. Food will be available afterward. Also on June 24 will be a Tai Chi demo at 10 a.m. and canoe and kayak races in the afternoon.

On Wednesday June 27, there will be a McNab Days horseshoe tournament from 6:30 to 9 p.m. at Wellington Park in Pinegrove. Then, to the next weekend, as on Saturday, June 30, the

Heritage Trails will take centre stage, along with a Heritage Tour of Burnstown’s historic homes and gardens from 12:30 to 5 p.m., complete with a strawberry social for $25. At the Poole Street and

Milton Stewart entrances to the trail, story-tellers will relate tales of the past from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. For a detailed breakdown of events, see mcnabbraeside.com’s calendar of events.

Township worried about tax impact, to review deals next year Continued from front

Blimkie and councillors Brad McIlquham and Aldene Styles voted for the motion, while Mayor Mary Campbell and Coun. Bob Campbell were opposed. After the meeting, Arnprior chief librarian Karen DeLuca, who attended the meeting with board chairman Neil Salminen and McNab-Braeside representative Susan Gillan, expressed delight with the decision. The decision makes funding of the library more equitable for Arnprior and McNab-Braeside residents, she said. Township residents haven’t significantly increased their share of funding for the library for more than a decade, she said, noting that the boost asked for by Arnprior contains a certain amount of catch-up. Township residents are still paying substantially less for the library than those town taxpayers, she added. DeLuca said she is pleased the deal dispels uncertainty for parents signing their children up for summer programs at the library. She said McNab-Braeside residents who have already paid for a $60 fee to ensure their children are registered will get refunds. “I’ll be putting the cheques in the mail tomorrow,” she said. Blimkie, who visited the library recently to get a handle on its offerings and how many township residents use it, said it is obvious many McNab-Braeside people value the service. She said she was particularly impressed that the library offers a book delivery service for shut-ins. Blimkie pointed out the library service is available to all people regardless of their financial status. “When you go in there, you don’t have to open your wallet … not like at the Nick Smith Centre,” she said. With at least one-third of the users from McNab-Braeside, it’s a reasonable investment, she added. She added that the numbers are updated regularly, so there is no reason to believe the number of McNab-Braeside residents is being exaggerated. However, the township will have to look long and hard at the recreation and library deals well before they expire at the end of 2013, she said, suggesting it should be as soon at the first quarter of next year. “I don’t like all this money going out of the township,” she said, calling the amount being paid for the services “ludicrous.” But at least “I know who the users are when it comes to the library,” she said, adding “I still don’t know who the users are in recreation.” Blimkie suggested the increased levies the township is paying Arnprior for the two services will boost property taxes by at least six per cent next year. “The increases used to be cost-of-living,” said Coun. Campbell, adding that a close to 30

per cent rise is not acceptable. “Nobody gets that kind of raise these days,” he said. With a report indicating the township is facing more than $800,000 in needed road work next year, the township budget could go up by 12 per cent just for the two items (roads and deals with Arnprior), he added. Under the terms of the revised agreement, Arnprior Mayor David Reid said the town would accept a two-year deal along the lines of the recreation agreement, instead of the five years originally requested. McNab-Braeside will pay another $41,000 on top of the $17,000 already paid for library services this year, bringing the total to $58,614. In 2013, the township’s payment will rise to $85,899. WHO’S IN THE MAJORITY?

Coun. Styles, while supporting the proposed deal, said she still feels that the township should hold some sort of referendum or survey to determine what the majority of ratepayers think about the deals and the now rejected user pay system. That would give council guidance as it enters negotiations with Arnprior for the years 2014-15, she said. It was clear at the public meetings that many people want the services paid for from their taxes, she said. “But we’re second guessing” to whether they are the majority. Other councillors noted there are a significant number of taxpayers who have urged them to hold the line on taxes. “I got elected on the promise of keeping taxes down, not increasing them,” said Coun. Campbell. Mayor Campbell pointed out that council has only heard from about one-third of residents so far. She said she opposes the agreement because the figures aren’t based on any firm formula, such as the one used by Renfrew to charge for its library services. As such, there is no equity in the payment for library services, she said. She also argued there should be some sort of fee related to the service, even if it’s $5, or people will assume it’s a ‘free’ government program and take it for granted. But it isn’t, it costs us one way or the other,” she said. She supported sticking to offering Arnprior $45 per household using the service. Perhaps the library could raise the other $15 by charging for extra cards for other users in a household, she suggested. However, she agreed that the library is underfunded. The question is how that problem should be tackled, she said. And she also said that council had to make a decision that night to let parents make decisions on whether to enroll their children in the summer programs.

A Walsh Contracting crew from Barry’s Bay works on McLachlan Road Monday. The section of the road stretching east from the Creek Side Road is being upgraded, with drainage work and improvements on the hill. The three-week $545,000 project is expected to be completed by the end of this week. The township’s public works department and committee are is in the process of updating a five-year plan of road work for McNab-Braeside with close to a $1 million worth of work suggested for next year including upgrading of Creek Side road and maybe even a section of Kippen Road. Council is scheduled to review the report at its June 19 meeting. The need for road work was raised during the discussion over whether the township can afford to pay more to Arnprior for recreation and library services for its residents.

Contract awarded to expand high-speed in the rural areas EMC news - The Eastern Ontario Wardens’ Caucus has awarded a Local Access Contract that will provide nearly 31,000 homes and businesses access to high-speed Internet across a sparsely populated rural region that stretches through the northern Ottawa Valley and covers much of eastern Renfrew County. The service will be available in fall 2013. As part of the contract, Bell Aliant will provide a wired DSL solution that will expand broadband access in this large region spanning about 4,000 square kilometres and including communities around areas such as Arnprior, Renfrew, Pembroke and Deep River. Bell Aliant’s network will rely on 65 kilometres of new ďŹ bre optic cable and two dozen remote access points to extend highspeed service. It will provide services ranging from 1.5 Mbps to up to 16 Mbps, depending on the customer location. The speeds will enable users to stream video and other innovative applications that will support various sectors, including business, health and education. “We are extremely pleased to announce this contract,â€? said Mel Campbell, chair of the Wardens’ Caucus. “This contract will improve wired access in an area that was previously underserved because it has such low population density.â€? Satellite services will provide the balance of high-speed coverage in the area. Satellite access remains the best ďŹ t technology for very sparsely populated areas or regions with difďŹ cult terrain. Contracts have already been signed to deliver high-speed via satellite at improved pricing across Eastern Ontario. In all, 22 local access contracts will be awarded in 15 zones to deliver high-speed Internet through wired and ďŹ xed wireless services as part of the Eastern Ontario regional broadband project. The $170-million project is funded by federal, provincial and municipal governments and private sector investment. Work to build a 5,500-km ďŹ bre optic network, including laying 400 kilometres of new cable, is already well underway. “We are making excellent progress in building a new regional network that will allow our residents and businesses to prosper,â€? said Dave Burton, chair of the Eastern Ontario Regional Network (EORN). EORN is a not-for-proďŹ t organization established by the Wardens’ Caucus to manage all contracts awarded as part of the project.

A whole lot of history at museum’s summer opening Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

EMC news - The Arnprior and District Museum reminded visitors and residents of their summer program with a special presentation Saturday afternoon. Museum curator Janet Carlile thanked the museum’s dozens of volunteers for their work at the facility, then left guest speaker Carol Ruddy to speak about the town’s incredible architectural history, including the building in which the museum is housed. “This day is really one that allows me a chance to speak about the year gone by and to address some of accomplishments of the year, its volunteers and, of course, its staff,â€? said Carlile of the first day of the museum’s summer season. She also thanked town council for providing the money that “makes this place work.â€? Being open the entire year, the museum has attracted a new type of visitor, said Carlile. “Local people know that we’re now open on Tuesdays (year-round), and they’ve come in great numbers to see what’s here, to donate their time, to give artifacts, and to become more acquainted with their past. We’ve also attracted people who have come from away ‌ and they too contribute to our visitor numbers.â€? Winter hours are Tuesday’s 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., while summer hours are the same hours Monday through Saturday. While many museums are suffering across Ontario, the Arnprior mu-

That truck is undergoing restoration by the fire department, the Arnprior Fire Trucks company and museum volunteers. It’s hoped that by July 1, the fire truck will be returned for Canada

Day viewing in the museum parking lot, “to see and admire again,� said Carlile. “And they (visitors) may even be able to have a ride in it.� Carlile then left the floor to the guest speaker. Ruddy, an Ottawa municipal planner, lives in Arnprior and developed the town’s heritage conservation district study in 2006. In fact, she had a sense that she was coming to something special when she moved east. “I looked at the downtown with eyes of an outsider, someone who grew up Alberta, where the majority of

Inc.

bank buildings, the O’Brien Theatre and the “good bones of the brick Italianate commercial buildings.� The downtown buildings are a real history lesson, said Ruddy. She noted that 21 of 49 were constructed between 1880 and 1890, and clustered in two areas. Nine were built on the south side of Elgin Street between John and Daniel streets; and 12 were built on the north end of John Street. Some of these buildings replaced earlier wood-frame or brick buildings that were destroyed by fire. First, Ruddy chose to talk about a building that no longer exists - the grist mill built in 1853 by Daniel McLachlin near the current public library. She compared this structure, with its medium-pitch side gable roofs, generally symmetrical organization and rectangular plan, to Watson’s Mill in Manotick. She then spoke about the museum building, which is thought to be built in 1896, 1897 or 1898. The building designer was Thomas Fuller, chief architect of the Dominion of Canada, who supervised the design of about 140 federal buildings across Canada during his career. The museum building also remains a front-and-centre symbol of Arnprior that is featured on the town crest and on the large Highway 17 sign developed by the Arnprior Rotary Club. Among her several details, Ruddy described the building as being 2.5 storeys, with a hip roof and two gable formers, and four clocks facing north, south, east and west. See O’BRIEN Page 11

OPINION

Your Community Newspaper

EDITORIAL

Disconnect, to reconnect, with community family and friends The addition of an elevator lift at the Burnstown United Church is more than a means to help the disabled make full use of the community facility. One person at a recent ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark completion of the accessibility project sees improved access as one more encouragement for people to use the church hall to bring a congregation, and an entire community, closer together. The elevator lift is an impressive piece of technology, but Neil Dalton feels even greater rewards will be felt when people of all ages and backgrounds step out of their homes and

spend time with their neighbours. In his lifetime, Dalton has seen a tremendous transition in how people spend their leisure time, and it isn’t for the good. He notes that not so very long ago, people connected at regular gatherings at dance halls and church halls across Renfrew County. He misses those days of face-to-face contact and hopes society will one day find its way back to the simpler joys of life. He believes an important step is learning to walk away from the technologies that tie us to screens – television screens, computer monitors, gaming devices, iPods and cell phones.

Far better, he says, for neighbours to gather and enjoy more sociable pastimes like dances, board games and cards. While the worldwide web has given people access to unlimited information and a swelling directory of casual ‘friends’, it actually does very little to fulfill the very real need for human contact. A Tweet on Twitter cannot replace the bond of a good firm handshake or heartfelt hug. A laugh shared live with others is vastly superior to the parade of LOLs scattered through fleeting emails and text messages. Not that the Internet isn’t valuable in con-

necting people with like-minded interests, or creating precious support systems for people. But governments are truly on the right track when they encourage people to join in welcoming, inclusive activity. Past functions at the United Church in Burnstown have provided exactly that. From piano recitals and concerts to women’s institute activities, the tiny, rural community hall has proven its value in bringing people together. The future is bright at this rural church hall, if only people are willing to unplug, venture outside and enjoy time well spent with neighbours and friends.

Recreation’s $60 affordable To the editor: I have friends in McNab-Braeside and understand the frustration about the user fees. But after reading the letters to the editor, I am a little confused by the facts people are using in their arguments. The options they state as if they cannot afford $60 for hockey.

Price it out folks. Hockey season $60, two cases beer $60, sorry do not know drug prices, television at least $50 a month. Video games? You need to rethink your argument before you gain my sympathy back. Andrew Cleghorn Arnprior

Food bank grateful for unsung heroes To the editor: The Arnprior Food Bank extends a heartfelt ‘Thank You’ to the unsung heroes of Arnprior who commit deeds of generosity. You quietly put food items in collection boxes at Metro and No Frills Supermarkets. You are the same people who fill brown bags with food for the Tim Hortons food drives. You come to the Food Bank and leave bags of food, items for personal grooming and clean clothes on the table outside the door. I have watched the lesson of generosity be-

ing taught to a child who carefully placed a tin of soup or tinned vegetables in the collection box at the food store. The volunteers, clients at the Amprior Food Bank and Helen in the snowsuit area would like each of you to know that we are grateful for every item that you give. It is your kindness that helps us to do what must be done. Thank you. Frankie Juby Braeside

When youth used to work to afford sports To the editor: I was shocked to read the letter from Noah Fridgen comparing his playing hockey to seniors having to live in a retirement or nursing home (Chronicle Guide EMC, June 7). Do your homework, Noah. These homes are not free. They can cost a senior $2,000 a month for a single room and three meals a day. They are controlled by the Ontario government not the Township. My husband and I worked 40 years to get OAS and CPP, which will not cover the cost of these homes. We still pay income and property taxes. If our property taxes go up 15 per cent, we will be paying $350 a year towards the Fridgen family sports and library. By the way, Mariah, the proposed cost for the library is $60 a year for as many books as you want, not just for one book. We had to pay for sports for our children and grandchildren. Our daughter was a single par-

ent with three sons and could not afford to put them in hockey. When they were 11 years old, they shovelled snow and cut grass in the summer to have enough money to play organized football. They were not couch potatoes or played video games but played outside with friends. Today, two of them are fitness instructors. Mary Campbell is correct in wanting to know where the money goes and how much it is costing per person. Beryl Kranch (Mrs.) McNab-Braeside

An invasion of privacy To the editor: The sunshine list is the most ridiculous invasion of privacy I have ever heard of. After seeing the results of the recent poll, I am disgusted with the people of the Renfrew area. I am a young adult who is not on this list; I would like to point out. What business is it of yours to know how much someone else makes, government employee or not. You have no idea how much each individual works, or what they have to miss out on when responding to emergency calls or overtime work to investigate murders, preform surgery or deal with hospital paperwork.

Support bill that will lead to Alzheimer’s strategy To the editor: Finally there is some good news for the over 180,000 Ontarians living with Alzheimer’s disease.

The bill proposes the creation of a council to advise the Minister of Health on the creation of a comprehensive Alzheimer’s Strategy for Ontario. It is critical that Ontario implement a comprehensive strategy to deal with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia. As Ontario’s population ages, the number of people with Alzheimer’s disease is going to skyrocket. There is currently no coordinated

Arnprior strikes gold at Seniors Games To the editor: Thanks to the support of the communityminded persons and organizations in Arnprior and McNab-Braeside, the 2012 edition of the Renfrew County 55+ Senior Games was definitely a success story. All competitors who visited the community had nothing but praise for the reception and welcome that was displayed at the different venues. They included Emmanuel Anglican Church (bid euchre), St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church (cribbage), Our Lady of Perpetual Help (euchre), Christian Education Centre (contract bridge), Royal Canadian Legion (darts), Arnprior Airport (prediction and Nordic walking), WO Stinson (cycling), Arnprior Golf Club

There are plenty of people not working for the government that make lots of money that is undeserved.

The first hot day of the year, and I’m hunting for last year’s bottle of sunscreen. With pale skin, I know I should be wearing sunscreen daily to prevent sunburn, skin cancer, and premature aging, but, like most Canadians, I usually don’t worry about it until that first sunny day - then I scramble to find the best sunscreen.

A trip to the store just leaves me bewildered – should I choose spray or cream? Sunscreen or sun block? Should it be waterproof? If SPF 15 is good, is SPF 30 twice as good? Reading the labels, I feel like I need a chemistry degree - should I choose Zinc, Titanium, Avobenzone, Octocrylene, Octisalate? Which chemicals are safe? To get some answers, I turned to Dr. Jason Sack , ADMH dermatologist and skin oncologist: First off, in general, sunscreens that are broad spectrum (coverage for both UVA and UVB) with a minimum SPF of 30 are most desirable. An SPF of 30 offers 96.7% protection while an SPF of 60 offers 97.7% protection. Additional protection beyond SPF 60 is marginal and may potentially provide a false sense of security. Most people don't apply a sufficient amount of sunscreen. 30 ml (the equivalent of a shot glass) is required to cover an exposed adult body. Remember that it should be applied 20 minutes before sun exposure and reapplied every 2 hours. I can't begin to count the number of times patients have shown me bottles of sunscreen that have lasted them years! In Canada, all sunscreen manufacturers are required to receive authorization from Health Canada documenting the safety and efficacy of their products. Ongoing safety assessments are paramount. The sunscreen's vehicle (gel, cream, lotion, ointment, spray, balm, stick) becomes a personal choice. A cream may be perfect for the face but a gel or spray more desirable for hairy regions. There is no conclusive evidence that one vehicle 'works better' than another. Given that skin cancer rates continue to rise in Canada, with melanoma incidence increasing by 1.4% per year (for an estimated 5,800 cases and 970 deaths in 2012; according to the Canadian Cancer Society), sunscreen must remain a mainstay of sun-safety campaigns.

Well ladies, perhaps we should clear this up for you….. The new machine will take digital photos instead of film photos. This allows the radiologists to examine breast images on a computer screen using contrast, colour and zoom functions that are not available with film. This is the most important difference between digital and film and why it is the best tool at early breast cancer detection. The compression of your breasts in the machine will remain and while it’s uncomfortable it’s not painful.

Public education ‘increasingly two-tier’: critics The third and final installment in a series that looks at school fundraising By Kristen Calis, Jessica Cunha and Rosie-Ann Grover

T

he best way to end the Ontario school system’s reliance on fundraising is to pour more money into public education, parents, teachers and critics say. “We are getting increasingly (to be) a two-tiered education system,” says NDP education critic Peter Tabuns. “That speaks to the need for adequate funding of the education system so parents don’t feel compelled to raise money.” Fundraising Fever, a Metroland Special Report, shows that concerns about overuse of fundraising – and the disparities it creates – are growing province-wide. Potential solutions also include a proposal by the advocacy group People for Education, which wants a provincial Equity in Education grant created to reduce inequities triggered by fundraising. School boards are pushing for an evaluation of provincial education funding to determine whether the current model is fair to all students. “The pressure to fundraise will only grow as boards try to meet the austerity measures of provincial governments,” says Catherine Fife, president of the Ontario Public School Boards’ Association. “We can’t go to our parent councils or school councils and keep asking for money.” There’s no question money is tight. The McGuinty government is starting consultations this fall to cut $10 million from school board administration budgets by 2013-14. Progressive Conservative education critic Lisa MacLeod says there is a lot of waste in the system and boards don’t always spend their funding appropriately. “They’ll claim they have no money, but are they managing the money effectively?” she asks. Some groups, including Social Planning Toronto, believe fundraising should be banned outright, except for raising dollars for external charities. “I’d rather not have it,” says Chris Ellis, who sits on four school councils in Ottawa. “I’d like for schools to not be able to raise funds for their own use so then parents in those affluent areas might become involved and speak up for greater funding for the education system.” The Coalition Against Public School Inequality suggests a cap on school fundraising. A percentage of each school’s profits above and beyond the limit would go into an equalization fund to help disadvantaged schools. But the Ontario Federation of Home and School Associations says a limit would be too restrictive. “We actually don’t want somebody to say you have to stop here. It’s up to the parents to decide how much they want to do or whether they’ve had enough,” says Lee Gow-

The purchase of new playground equipment is a common fundraising goal for parents. ers, president of the group. Raising taxes would be a controversial solution, but “that’s how you address inequity, unpopularly through taxes,” says Annie Kidder, executive director of People for Education. “At some point, we have to bite the bullet and go, ‘That’s what taxes pay for.’ If we want our kids to have books in their libraries, we have to pay taxes.” Critics say the province should outline exactly what materials, activities and programs should be available – at no cost to parents – in all Ontario schools. Currently, it’s OK to raise funds for library books, gym equipment and musical instruments. “You need to start with the policy and the vision and laying out concretely what should be there in schools,” says Kidder. “Then you start talking about how you fund it to ensure it’s fair and equitable.” There is also interest in a boardwide mentorship program where successful fundraising schools partner with those that need a hand, helping to reduce the gap in funds raised. “To me, that’s how successful fundraising can be done, really sharing the best practices,” says parent Roxanne Horwitz, who sits on the St. Bernadette Catholic School council in Ajax Education foundations across the province continue to play a role, helping to reduce inequities in opportunity between well-off and disadvantaged schools. There is no severe pressure on schools to raise funds for things like field trips because many foundations will cover those costs. “Having a central education foun-

dation completely changes the landscape for children in a city,” says Jane Fulton, executive director of the Education Foundation of Ottawa. “We make sure that no student is left out.” Small businesses and large corporations continue to work to bridge the gap by providing donations and incentive programs. “That’s what we are counting on, businesses in the community,” says Luce Paradis, principal at Assumption Catholic School in Ottawa. The school is located in a low-income area and doesn’t usually host fundraisers. Without corporate donations, it wouldn’t be able to reach its goal of $50,000 for a new play structure. “We have to outsource a little bit.” The Campbell’s Labels For Education program, for example, invites schools to collect labels from Campbell’s products, such as soup cans and Goldfish crackers, and redeem them for educational resources from books to gym equipment. A number of other companies, such as Chapters, Boston Pizza and McDonald’s, host special events that encourage parents to purchase their products and then give a portion of sales back to local schools. Others, such as the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario, believe businesses don’t belong in public schools. “It’s a tempting road because it’s a quick fix to the funding situation,” says Kawartha Pine Ridge ETFO president David Wing. “Children are already bombarded enough with commercial messages.”

Miller Paving (Smiths Construction) and Sullivan and Sons donated workers’ time and resources to the upgrading at Red Pine Bay. About 20 loads of fill, lots of gravel, seven years or more of sprucing up the River Road location, will soon come to a culmination with the grand re-opening this Saturday of the Braeside Beach. A second parking lot was completed, and plans are underway for a new, paved boat launch. Ontario Power Generation (OPG) has also donated dollars. Gathered to thank the local companies are, from left, McNab-Braeside recreation director Geoff Patterson, OPG’s Jennifer Gardiner, Miller’s Pat Sullivan, Sullivan’s Jason Roesner, and the township’s chief administrative officer, Noreen Mellema.

She also spent some time talking about O’Brien Theatre. Construction of “this relatively large theatre was an indication of the economic health of the town,” she said of the theatre, whose property was sold for $1,000 in 1919. The 1920 property’s assessment value was a hefty $25,000. “Theatres from this period are very interesting buildings,” said Ruddy. “They were the focus for entertainment in the community, designed to make theatre-goers feels they were in a magical and very special place away from everyday cares.” The building’s very design, on the exterior and interior, reflected this specific goal, with such features as the projecting end bays, pilasters on the second level, and the building cornice. In the same presentation, Ruddy also spoke about the arcade building, the Bank of Nova Scotia bank building, the Campbell block, and Clancy’s Drugstore. SUMMER SEASON

The Arnprior and District Museum’s summer season continues through to the second week of September.

NATURE

Strange and fascinating creature in the garden No need to travel to a foreign land EMC lifestyle – Years ago I came to realize that in order to encounter wild creatures one does not need to travel to exotic places. Strange and fascinating animals exist everywhere, even in one’s backyard. In particular, gardens are worth exploration for they offer habitat to a wide host of animals. As many species of garden flowers are currently in bloom, right now is an excellent time to look for their unusual visitors. Because flowers attract insects by offering promises of sweet rewards, gardens are alive with the comings and goings of myriad flies, bees and butterflies. These animals, of course, are food for other creatures, and predators also abound. Many, such as the colourchanging Goldenrod Crab Spider, hide in the blooms of the flowers and patiently wait for a meal to drop by. Spiders are not the only animals that find gardens to be good hunting grounds; Assassin Bugs, Robber Flies and Ambush Bugs help form a lethal gauntlet through which all pollinators must run. During a recent stroll in our garden, I encountered the most exciting predatory insect I have ever seen. It was brown and yellow and looked like it was made from two very different insects. It bore the large pointed

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way abdomen of a Paper Wasp and the neck, head, and legs of a Praying Mantid. The odd creature was a Mantisfly, and it was the first I have ever seen (see right). Mantisflies are neither mantids nor flies. These rare insects belong to the Order Neuroptera, which includes other fascinating insects such as Lacewings and Antlions. Only a handful of species of Mantisflies inhabit Ontario and the adults of all are predators. Like Praying Mantids, Mantisflies patiently sit on plants and when another insect flies into reach, with lightning speed the large raptorial spiny arms snap open and grab the prey. The small head is equipped with large eyes for acute vision and a powerful set of mandibles for chewing up meals.

The species I came across had the same brown and yellow banding on its large abdomen that many Polistes paper wasps bear. The resemblance to one of these large wasps was furthered by its wings, which were two-toned dark on the outside and light on the inside, making it appear as if the wings were folded in the manner of a wasp’s. The strong resemblance to a wasp undoubtedly offers protection because birds quickly learn to avoid eating stinging insects. This type of protection – the same one offered to harmless Viceroy butterflies that look like toxic Monarchs – is called Batesian mimicry. Larval Mantisflies have a very different lifestyle. After hatching, the tiny larvae latch onto spiders and eventually burrow into their egg sacs. Once inside a sac, the larval Mantisfly dines on the eggs, living as a parasitoid. Although travelling to a foreign land is one way to meet new and exciting creatures, a backyard stroll can do just the same. And in many ways it is a more rewarding experience, for it costs nothing and long delays in Customs are never encountered! The Nature Number is 613387-2503; email is mruntz@ start.ca.

Returning students seek cast for local production of RENT EMC entertainment School’s out, university students are home, the smell of barbecues fill the air. Yes it’s everyone’s favourite season. Two local students, back from university, have decided that it’s also the season of love and are going to be producing the musical RENT right here in Arnprior. Colin Enright, a third-year music and French language student at McGill University, is excited to direct the popular rock musical. His partner in crime, Evelyn Popiel, is also in her third year at Queens University in biology and drama and will be acting as artistic director. Both are very passionate about the theatre and really wanted to work off of the recent musical theatre boom in

Arnprior. RENT is a Tony-award winning musical that focuses on the lives of artists in New York City who struggle to — you guessed it — pay their rent. HARD TOPICS

The musical discusses some hard topics such as living with AIDS, which is why Enright and Popiel have decided that all of the profits for this production will go directly to Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research (CANFAR). CANFAR was created by three entrepreneurs in Toronto back in 1987 and has had raised money for AIDS research ever since. “We wanted to do this

show because of our love of musical theatre and, of course, our love of RENT, it just seemed right that all of our profits went towards CANFAR,” Popiel said. Auditions for the musical are open to everyone and will take place at the Arnprior Public Library on June 28 from 7 to 10 p.m. and June 30 from 5 to 10 p.m. Performance dates are set for late August. “We know how talented Arnprior is and we know how caring this community is,” said Enright. “I cannot wait to see who we have come out for this amazing and touching musical.” For more information about auditions, please contact cadenzaprod@gmail. com.

What a year: Athletes shine at ADHS Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC sports – Neil Farmer glances around, smiling at the 200 students and parents in the gymnasium on June 18. The principal points to the many talented athletes and dedicated coaches when asked how sports went at Arnprior District High School this year. “The turnout tonight speaks volumes for how the year went,” Farmer said. “Given the past few years you wouldn’t think it could be better.” Just last week well over 50 athletes on three teams – rugby, soccer, and track – were at provincial competitions. For one of the smaller high schools in Ontario, a small town school suffering from declining enrollment, the students continue to excel. Farmer, who at the banquet’s end joined in giving a standing ovation to a number of teachers to be laid off at the end of this school year because of population decline, ventured a guess as to why sports programs do so well. “The time and effort of coaches; that dedication that we see from teachers,” he said. “The early mornings and late nights, I think (teachers and students) think it’s almost expected to keep it going every year. They all want to be a part of it.” There is concern some 12 sports could be affected by the teacher cuts. PRIDE AT SCHOOL, IN TOWN

St. Joe’s to offer hockey skills course in September EMC sports - St. Joseph’s High School is delighted to announce the launch of a Hockey Canada Skills Academy as part of its curriculum package beginning this September. “This is something unique,” says Jeff Halk, the program’s head administrator. “It’s a tremendous opportunity for young hockey players to combine hockey development with their regular studies, and all of it under one roof.” As a Hockey Canada Skills Academy, on and off-ice hockey instruction is offered as part of the school’s curriculum package. Now young hockey players in the area can grow in the game they love while accumulating recognized credits sanctioned by the Ontario Ministry of Education. Like math, science, and language, hockey becomes a formal subject in the curriculum. “It’s like any other subject we have,” offered head instructor Stacey McGregor. “It has to have full academic integrity, a strong theoretical component and a credible program of physical fitness to make it complete.” In fact, credibility is a crucial element. “This is,” says McGregor, “the real deal.” Just like in any other high school subject, there is a formal exam that needs to be writ-

It was a bittersweet night at the awards banquet this year. Phil Moore, left, and the rest of ADHS had to say goodbye to teachers who coached up to 12 teams. Teachers Marisa Bosa, Derek Stashick, Tanya Box, Dan Lavallee, and Joe Lavoie are falling victim to the school’s declining enrollment. There is fear not as many sports will be offered next year.

ten in order to attain the credit. As well, there is a rigorous regime of dry-land training that complements the theoretical and practical applications, resulting in the development of a player well-rounded in all aspects of the game. McGregor, an experienced veteran of competitive hockey as both a player and coach, heads up a staff of teachers with many years of combined hockey experience, all of whom share the same goal. “We want to help develop players who can think the game as much as play it. And we want to help each and every one of them get closer to their maximum potential.” School principal Brennan Trainor is excited about the potential it has in other parts of the school’s fabric. “We’ve always aspired to nurture the giftedness and self-worth of every individual that passes through these doors,” says Trainor. “This program represents another significant avenue by which students can achieve this.” The academy is open to boys and girls in grades 9 and 10. Players interested in attending should make application online by visiting the program’s website at jaghockey.me.

ADHS soccer lads impress coach in first trip to Ontario championships John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

EMC sports – The Arnprior District High School senior boys soccer season didn’t win the Ontario championship as a cutline mistakenly suggested in the June 7 Chronicle Guide EMC. However, it had an outstanding season nevertheless, earned a berth in OFSAA for the first time by winning the Eastern Ontario title. Coach Nathan Woods was delighted with the “remarkable� play of his team. “I knew after our third match of the season, that if we played our system that we would make OFSAA,� he said. “I have coached youth, adult and university soccer since 1986, and have never worked with a more dedicated and motivated group of individuals,� he added. “They played a system that no team in our county nor EOSAA could cope with.� As a result, the Redmen were undefeated in 13 games going into OFSAA. ADHS’ 1-1 tie at EOSAA against Notre Dame of Carleton Place was the closest the team came to defeat. The goal given up by Arnprior was a deflection off its own defender from a cross. Although seeded third at EOSAA, “anyone who had seen the team play knew that if the boys executed they Photo courtesy Nathan Woods would win,� said Woods. “This was evident in the final against Bayridge from The Arnprior District High School senior soccer team celebrates a strong performance at OFSAA. The squad, the first ADHS Kingston, when the lads had an over 80 per cent pos- boys soccer team to qualify for the Ontario championship, received the Team Sportsmanship Award, as voted by the OFSAA orsession rate, holding them to two shots on net, one be- ganizing committee because of their fair play and team spirit. The team received a large banner to be displayed at the school. ing a late penalty shot. INJURY WOES

At OFSAA in North Bay, ADHS played very well, but did not advance from its pool, having been challenged with three key injuries during day one of the competition. As a result, Arnprior played with six Grade 9s in its starting line-up. Despite the depleted roster, the Redmen tied one match with Stuart Stevens scoring an impressive goal with a chip shot over the rushing goalie. In fact, Arnprior nearly won the game in the dying seconds.

ADHS lost 3-0 to the eventual champions John McRae High School from Ottawa 3-0. That match was a clinic of one-touch passing by both teams. “I was complimented by the opposing coach, who indicated we were their only challenge of the tournament,� said Woods. John McRae went undefeated in the tournament, winning the title game 6-0. Woods noted that Arnprior’s OFSAA match against Vanier from Collingwood was the most watched game and upon conclusion ADHS

the players had an “unforgettable experience� at OFSAA. “Graduating players Will Twardek, Stuart Stevens, Caleb Brown, Garrett Normoyle, Patrick Dick, Mitch Crozier and Jake Woods certainly have some great memories to end their high school soccer careers on as one of the top ‘AA’ soccer teams in the province,� he said. “As well, with so many young returning players the future of the team looks promising.�

was complimented by other players, coaches and OFSAA officials for its quality and exciting play. 12TH IN PROVINCE

To put the team’s success in perspective, small school Arnprior was seeded 12th in Ontario out of 1,250 teams, he added. “The boys represented their school, their town as true champions,� concluded Woods. ADHS athletic director Phil Moore said

High school girls proud of year in rugby, look forward to next season Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC sports – The Arnprior District High School girls’ rugby team lost a nail-biter by just one point, against a team that soon after the June 4 match finished second best in all of Ontario. Four players – Lisa Roesler, Rachel Boersma, Jenn McNulty, and Hilary Lalonde – met in coach Glenn Wallace’s classroom last week to reflect on the season that was, and envision what the future holds for girls’ rugby at ADHS. They agreed it was better to lose a heartbreaker of a close game 13-12, one that could have gone either way, than to have been blown out by Ashbury College. It’s easy to be a close-knit team when you slaughter regional competition every game over a two-year period. Which they did. It is through defeat, though, that a true team is melded together. “We were disappointed. But we’ve never been more of a team than through that loss,� said McNulty. The team’s top back rookie, Roesler, added that the game was proof that Arnprior can go toe-to-toe with the best in Ontario.

Even with two starters out of the lineup, the girls made a game out of it, mounting an impressive comeback from a 10-0 deficit,. The team was built on drive and determination. The players weren’t the biggest and strongest, but they had tremendous heart. Some were lured to rugby for the chance to “get some anger out� and “bang around the field.� But it was a large core

EMC lifestyle – Have you ever had troubles finding a great place to do your high school volunteer hours? Or have you ever had troubles finding a student to do some volunteer work for you? Well, look no further because starting in the Fall we are going to be launching a volunteer page in our Arnprior Life catalog. So if you are looking for a place to complete your 40 hours of volunteer time, we will have a list of organizations that will be more than willing to help you out. Not only do you complete your 40 hours to graduate, but you will be gaining valuable work place experience that will help you out in your future careers. We are also asking all organizations, who are willing to release their information, to contact us so we can put all of your information on our volunteer page. Please email kmenkhorst@ arnprior.ca by July 11 to en-

sure that your information will be available to all of our high school students. AUSSIE CAMP

Ever think about traveling to the Australian outback? No need to book a plane ticket because this summer we are bringing Australia to you. Our Aussie X Camp is here for one week only from Monday, July 9 to Friday, July 13. Aussie X Camp was first seen on Dragon’s Den and they have been growing and expanding ever since. Experience the true Australian culture through various sports, foods, and activities. Your camp counsellors are right from Australia. They know all about the culture and even have the accent to go with it. Cost is only $175 for the week and is for ages 8 to 14. The camp runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and there will be early drop-off and late pick-up available upon early reservation. Registration is now open,

so come on down to the Nick Smith Centre before Tuesday, July 3 to make sure that you have a spot. With that summer heat rolling in and summer vacation fast approaching, what a better way to beat the heat than to cool down at one of the biggest waterparks around. On Thursday, July 26, we will be heading to Calypso for the day. Cost is only $35 which includes your pass into the park and the bus ride there. This trip is for ages 9 to 17 and we will be leaving the Nick Smith Centre at 8:30 a.m. and then coming back at 5 p.m. Deadline for registration is Monday, July 23. If you have any questions or concerns, please contactkmenkhorst@arnprior.ca or call us at 613-623-7301, ext. 217.

REQUEST FOR TENDER

Determined to win the Summerpalooza’s Amazing Race are Arnprior District High School students, from left, Justin Cameron, Scott Parsons, David Parsons and Rowan Morris with Mayor David Reid.

Amazing Race comes to Arnprior’s Town Hall High school students participate in Summerpalooza EMC lifestyle – The Town Hall took on quite a different atmosphere June 7. At around 8:30 a.m. Arnprior District High School students swarmed the building looking to answer questions, perform tasks and get their next clue to move on in their quest to win ‘The Amazing Race’ event of this year’s Summerpalooza. The clue that guided students to the Town Hall was: “If you want to win this race, you have to stop at the Mayor’s place.” These students definitely had no problem figuring out where to go. Council chambers was set up for students to find their task and receive their next clue. Teams of four students took turns entering. Once inside, they were informed of their tasks; i.e. – answering questions related to the Town’s 150th anniversary. Students who successfully completed their tasks were given the opportunity to fill out a ballet for a chance to win an ‘Arnprior-opoly Board Game’ and all students received a 150th lapel pin and a bottle of water.

The “Arnprior-opoly” draw was done at the end of the day, and Mitchell Taylor was the winner. The event is put on by the high school’s Business Management Grade 12 Class, as an exercise on how to be a successful entrepreneur, with proceeds in 2012 going to the Digital Mammography Unit at the Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital. Town staff made special preparations to receive the more than 200 students who marched through the building within a two-hour span. Mayor David Reid was happy to see the students again this year, noting: “It’s great to have our future leaders and volunteers visit the Town Hall, and we look forward to seeing them next year.” Along with the Mayor, town clerk, Jacquie Farrow-Lawrence was thrilled to have the students back for another year, saying: “Staff was better prepared this year and things went very smoothly. “Congratulations to all students involved in this year’s Amazing Race.”

EMC news – The Arnprior recreation advisory committee expressed delight at the reaction of the townsfolk to the 150th anniversary celebrations June 8-10. “They were pleased,” said recreation director Glenn Arthur the day after Monday’s committee meeting. “We haven’t seen crowds like that since the Spirit of the Community … the town was really up for it (celebration).” Arthur said the committee was pleased that the crowds moved around the park and town, during the weekend, meaning most of the events were well-attended. The lumberjack and wild west shows and the Pioneer Village were all big hits, he said. The barn dance Saturday evening at the fairgrounds with Kyle Felhaver and Catalyst drew a “decent crowd,” he added. Arthur said the joint Ecumenical Church Service Sunday morning at Arnprior District High School attracted 500 people. “Kudoes for the churches getting together for that,” he said. “They were pleased with the response.” He explained that while the 150th anniversary extends through the full year, most of flags were taken down because they had the June 8-9-10 dates on them. He noted that there are still some exciting events upcoming in town, including the Canada Day festivities, the Arnprior Fair, White Pine Festival and the world broomball tournament. The anniversary year will end with a special New Year’s Eve party.

Personal training in the great outdoors Sherry Haaima Sherry.haaima@metroland.com

EMC sports - Kerry Antonello of White Lake is taking fitness out of the gym and into the area’s beautiful parks and public spaces. The certified personal trainer and fitness consultant hopes to offer services and garner more local interest in fitness and part of that plan is a proposal to host small group training sessions in local parks, including in White Lake and at Wellington Park in Pinegrove. Services include in-home training, program design, group training, nutrition counselling and boot camp instruction. She’s looking forward to meeting new clients and sharing important

ways to stay fit and healthy. “A lot of people are learning more about fitness and they want to exercise,” says Antonello. The fitness industry is a second career for her, as she worked in film and television production prior to becoming a personal trainer. But it’s not a change in lifestyle for Antonello, who moved to White Lake nine years ago. “I’ve always been very, very active and also health conscious,” she says. A Canfitpro certified personal trainer whose clients up to this point have mainly been in or closer to the City of Ottawa, Antonello says her focus on in-home training has been popular with clients.

With no public transit available in rural areas like McNab-Braeside, Antonello figured bringing sessions to people in their homes, local parks or even workplaces, made sense. “I can cater to any fitness levels whether from beginner to advanced and I can work one-on-one or with a group,” says Antonello. “I can always customize towards abilities or goals.” Having just received her TRX suspension training certificate, Antonello is excited to be able to offer instruction and training in that new form of working out. Call 613-868-1975 or email antonellok@hotmail.com for more information.

Public space boot camp proposal approved in principle John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC news – McNab-Braeside council is enthusiastic about the possibility of a boot camp fitness program being offered in the township. Council agreed Tuesday to approve in principle the concept proposed by personal trainer Kerry An-

tonello to use township facilities for the fitness classes. However, it also agreed as that because the certified fitness consultant is making a profit by giving the classes, the township’s recreation director be asked to negotiate an “appropriate contract” with her for the use of McNab-Braeside facilities.

Recreation director Geoff Patterson explained she is proposing using parks in White Lake and Pinegrove (Wellington) for boot camp type programs with moderate to high end impact on fitness. “The recreation committee looked at her credentials … and they are pretty impressive,” he added.

WHITE PINE FESTIVAL

Most of her clients come from the Ottawa area, but Antonello, a resident of the White Lake area, would like to expand her offerings in her home area. Coun. Brad McIlquham said that Antonello is proposing small classes of five or six people. “It’s fairly personal … it’s just getting off the

ground,” he said. Deputy Mayor Christine Blimkie said it is encouraging to see a program proposed to be under the umbrella of the township that is not offered elsewhere in this area. Mayor Mary Campbell suggested she could use the Braeside RA Centre in the winter.

Can they do it? First Baptist up to the challenge EMC lifestyle –The Arnprior First Baptist Church showed it ‘can’ meet the goal of its third annual Summer Food Drive. This year’s drive was named ‘Can We Do It?,” a play on words with the campaign’s mascot being a can of soup. It is the church’s first year having a mascot for the drive. The mascot was ‘Kenny the Can’, associate Pastor Ken Wood dressed up as a giant soup can. When the church announced the challenge, Kenny the Soup Can came dancing into the church and announced this year’s goal. The goal was 50 bags of food. Kenny the Can challenged the church to donate an additional 25 bags (for a total of 75). If the 75-bag challenge was met, he promised he would be the can in a game of Kick the Can with the children of the church. In total, the congregation raised 92 bags of food, plus $30 in donations in four weeks. FILL THE STAGE

The drive in year one was called ‘fill the stage’ and church members did just that, filling the stage of the church with food. Year two was called ‘taking a bite out of hunger’ and the congregation filled 60-plus bags of food. Last year, Arnprior’s Metro store donated reusable grocery bags to the church to be used each year in the food bank campaign. The bags make it easier to collect and deliver the food to the food bank. To get people motivated for next year, the church has announced another food mascot will come forward to challenge Kenny the Can. People can look forward to another fun challenge next summer. The annual food drive was first discussed by two co-workers, Lisa Schuler and Michelle Girdwood, who work together at Mental Health Services and noted the need for food donations

FRESH SALADS

PAT TREW

1 1/4 cups water 1/3 cup cottage cheese 3/4 tsp. salt 1 tbsp. white sugar 1 tbsp. shortening 2 1/2 cups all purpose white flour 1 cup whole wheat flour 1/3 cup sunflower seeds 1 1/2 tsp. bread machine yeast Place all of the ingredients, except the sunflower seeds, in the breadmaking pan in the order given. Because of the cottage cheese, which can spoil in warm weather, don’t use the delayed start. Start the bread machine right away using the Whole Wheat cycle. Add the sunflower seeds when the machine beeps indicating Add Ingredients. When the bread is finished, remove the loaf from the pan. Let the loaf cool for at least one hour before slicing it. A serrated knife works best for cutting fresh bread. If you’re using the bread to make sandwiches, let the bread cool completely first.

CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD

1 1/4 cups water 1/3 cup cottage cheese 3/4 tsp. salt 1 tbsp. white sugar 1 tbsp. shortening 3 1/2 cups all purpose white flour 1 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 cup raisins 1 tsp. bread machine yeast When you measure the ingredients into the bread machine, place the cinnamon to one side of the flour and the yeast to the other side. Don’t let the spice touch the yeast because cinnamon can prevent the yeast from working properly. Start the bread machine using the Sweet Cycle. Add the raisins when the machine beeps indicating Add Ingredients. When the bread is finished, remove the loaf from the pan. Let cool for one hour before slicing.

Our picnic salads are made every day with premium, fresh ingredients. Always ready to go in an easy-tote bucket and big enough for the whole family, you can take them anywhere. Try all four fresh varieties: traditional coleslaw, horseradish bean salad, old-fashioned potato salad or creamy macaroni salad. Farm Boy™ Picnic Salads $4.99-6.99 ea

EMC lifestyle - Of all the recipes I’ve made in the bread machine, this is without a doubt our favorite for everyday eating. From the comments I’ve received, it’s also a favorite with a lot of readers. Recently I was asked to repeat it for those who may have missed it. The secret to this loaf’s success is cottage cheese. The recipe doesn’t call for much, just 1/3 of a cup, but it makes all the difference in the texture and freshness of the bread. This loaf is moist and stays fresh, keeping well for three or four days. It’s perfect for making either sandwiches or toast. The basic recipe uses a combination of all-purpose white flour and whole wheat flour. This gives the loaf more body than white bread without the heaviness of 100 per cent wholewheat. The sunflower seeds are optional. With or without them, this bread is delicious. I’ve also included a variation for making this as Cinnamon Raisin Bread. There are differences between the two recipes, so read whichever one you’re making carefully. Both recipes make a 1 1/2 lb. loaf.

Tuesday Tips going to Tanzania at the Arnprior Ice Shack EMC lifestyle - Jen Magoon is expecting her second baby girl in July, and she knows she has a lot to be thankful for. In September 2010, she gave birth to Alexandria, who today is a clever, kind, and wonderful girl. But were it not for the skilled care of the midwives present at her birth,

it could have turned out very differently. Alexandria experienced trouble breathing due to a complication during delivery and needed help. “I am so grateful that where we live, we have access to quality care for mother and baby.” says Magoon.

Calling all day campers Kaitlin Greene Camp Co-ordinator

EMC lifestyle – It’s that time again and the staff at Camp Wanago is eagerly anticipating another fun and successful summer. We have a ton of great trips and exciting games and crafts planned for the children this year. Camp Wanago runs throughout July and August and is open for children ages 4-12. The Arnprior Department of Parks and Recreation’s summer day camp is very well known and has been around for many years. This year we have brought back many favorite trips like Mont Cascades, Cosmic Adventures, Saunders Farm, and the Kanata Wave Pool, as well as new trips like Funhaven and Ray’s Reptiles. We will also be going on some exciting trips within Arnprior including the Arnprior Bowling Centre, O’Brien Theatre, Dairy Queen and more. We’re looking forward to a summer of fun and excitement. We are happy to have some new additions to our staff this year. Each staff member brings their own unique qualities and ideas to camp to ensure that each and every child is having fun. Kaitlin Greene is joining once again at Camp Wanago as one of our co-ordinators. Our other co-ordinator, Abby Bourgoin, is joining us for her first year at Wanago. Abby is enrolled in the Kinesiology program at Acadia University in Nova Scotia. She will be returning to Acadia in the fall for her second year and hopes to pursue a career in physiotherapy. Kaitlin’s and Abby’s fresh ideas and positive attitudes are qualities that we are glad to welcome to camp this summer. Stephanie MacLaren is resuming her role

as counsellor at camp this summer. She has just completed her degree in Political Science at Ottawa U and will be completing her Bachelor of Education at Nipissing University this fall. Our other returning counsellor, Patrick Beaudry, will be returning to Arnprior District High School in September to complete his Grade 12 year. Both Stephanie and Patrick’s experience with children and dedication makes them great additions to camp this summer. We are also pleased to welcome four enthusiastic new counsellors this summer. Callum Steele is a lifeguard at the Nick Smith Centre who has just completed Grade 12 at West Carleton Secondary School. Diana Giamblanco has just completed her third year at U of T and is interested in pursuing a teaching career. As well, Maria Pecora has been hired through Community Living to work with Camp Wanago this summer. Maria is heading to Trent University in the fall to complete her first year in the Concurrent Education program. Finally, Calley Mosley has just finished her first year in the Child and Youth Worker program at Loyalist College and is excited to be a part of camp this summer. We are very happy to have such an amazing group of counsellors, both new and returning, at Camp Wanago this summer. We are positive that it’s going to be a very successful year. The camp staff promises fun games, trips and crafts, new friends and experiences and most importantly a safe and fun environment for all children. If you have any questions or are interested in registering your child, please call or drop by the Nick Smith Centre.

BINGO EVERY THURSDAY

Women in many parts of the world are not so lucky. Magoon is partnering with her sisters, Aisling and Ciara, who are co-owners of the Arnprior Ice Shack, to help bring quality maternal care to northern Tanzania. “What is most maddening and sad is that many women and their babies still die from completely preventable causes during labour and delivery. I want to do my small part to help change this.” says Magoon. Her sisters agree and have started ‘Tuesday Tips for Tanzania’, with all their tips Tuesdays going to the cause. Their goal is to raise $10,000, which will be matched six-fold by the Canadian government through the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) to completely outfit a community maternal health clinic in northern Tanzania. The fundraising is being done through Plan Canada, which has extensive experience in northern Tanzania. In addition to Tuesday Tips for Tanzania, Magoon’s sisters are happy to receive donations on any day. The Ice Shack is located on the corner of Madawaska Boulevard. and John Street in downtown Arnprior. Donations can also be made online at http://nkuni.com/mhc and Plan Canada issues tax receipts for donations of $25 or more.

SENIORS’ DAY CELEBRATION

EMC news – It has been well over a month since Renfrew County Ontario Works employees, members of Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) Local 4989, have been able to provide vital services to their community, so last week they decided to do something about it. On June 14, CUPE 4989 members collected donations on the picket line in Pembroke for St. Josephʼs Food Bank, a local charity that supplies food and supports to help with other basic needs. “Everyone has been so supportive. Helping those who struggle in our community remains a priority for us and we decided that we would try and do something to give back,” said CUPE 4989 president Ghyslaine Turgeon. “We got creative and agreed that in exchange for a donation, we would open up the picket line.”

Meanwhile, staff at Community Living Upper Ottawa Valley, members of CUPE Local 5088 held a ʻsolidarity barbecueʼ with the striking workers Wednesday before the agencyʼs annual meeting in Pembroke. The union members joined for a solidarity social and information picket at Riverside Park. On July 27, 2011, the Community Living Upper Ottawa Valley staff voted to join CUPE. Since then, they say they have been met with resistance from their employer to bargain a first collective agreement. Almost a year later, they remain without a contract. CUPE 5088 is asking for public support “to reach a fair settlement that supports the workers and the services they provide to the community. “ The Ontario Works employees in Renfrew County have been on strike since May 10.

Thumbs up for market’s new home Steve Newman Steve.newman@metroland.com

EMC news - Ian Bartlett of Studio Thirty Eight is among the Arnprior Farmers Market vendors who like their new home, next to the curling club. The market’s new location allows for expansion and a safer setting because of the increased ability to help customers carry purchased goods to the cars, says Bartlett. At the previous downtown site, customers often had to carry their goods two or three blocks. The market’s larger grounds will also al-

low for community groups and organizations to display their products, as was the case with the dragonboat team paddlers’ Prior Chest Nuts vessel prominently displayed during Saturday’s grand opening. The Chest Nuts will be taking part in this weekend’s Ottawa Dragonboat Fesitival at Mooney’s Bay. Bartlett is also looking forward to the market’s special day every month or so. Future themes will include farming, art and fishing. See NEW SITE Page 45

Continued from Page 44

Purpose and Effect of Consent Application:

The new location, says farmer market president Mark Gaetz, “is going to bring more traffic, more visibility. “This allows us to showcase locally-grown products better. Before, vendor space was a little bit limited and parking was limited (on Elgin Street).” Supporting sponsors for the market’s grand opening were Valley Heritage Radio, M&R Feeds, Arnprior Curling Club, Giant Tiger and

TSC Store. The new site also becomes an open invitation to service organizations to strut their stuff, whether they’re from the Arnprior area, Lanark, Renfrew or Greater Madawaska. “All these organizations need an opportunity to present their programs to the public, and we figure this is an outlet we can provide (free of charge),” said Bartlett.

Coffee couple team with SchoolBOX to build Nicaragua school EMC business - Every cup of coffee sold at Equator Coffee Roasters in Almonte is making education possible and recently Craig and Amber Hall, the co-owners, experienced firsthand the difference this is making. From May 20 to 27, the Halls travelled to San Antonio, Nicaragua with Tom Affleck and Sarah Kerr from SchoolBOX, where next year the two couples will partner to build a school in one of Equator’s coffee growing villages. Equator Coffee, which started in a small two-room facility in Arnprior in 1998 with a

focus on high quality, freshly roasted, fair trade and organic coffee, moved to Almonte in 200, but still has strong ties to the Arnprior community. The company has been supporting SchoolBOX since 2010 and 10 cents of every pound of coffee Equator sells is donated directly to the local charity. The funds raised will help build the school in the spring of 2013 and Amber hopes everyone will get involved in the project. “People can know that simply by buying

The application for severance proposes to sever an area of approximately 1,780 square metres (0.44 acres) with 30.6 metres of frontage on Hugh Street North and 15.5 metres of frontage on McDonald Street North. The retained portion will comprise of approximately 3,359 square metres (0.83 acres), having a frontage of 25.6 metres on McGonigal Street and 77.9 metres on Hugh Street North.

coffee they are making a difference,” said Amber. “It will also give customers and staff an opportunity to be a part of the building as well as to visit our farmers, hear their stories and see how coffee is grown and processed.” She thinks this is an amazing opportunity for customers and community members and welcomes them to join the adventure. They are currently looking for volunteers that will get involved by travelling with them to take part in the construction, meet the farmers and learn about the origins of coffee. Kerr, the program development manager for SchoolBOX, thinks it is a gift to have two local organizations working together helping some of the world’s poorest children. “It is amazing to see how two Almonte-based entrepreneurs, Craig and Tom (SchoolBOX founder and president), have taken on complementary tasks to change the world, and have now brought those visions together to have an even greater impact,” said Kerr. She feels that it is an inspiration to see the Halls taking corporate social responsibility to the next level by embedding SchoolBOX into their business plan. “Together we are able to empower the farmers and the families from whom they buy their coffee through basic education,” added Kerr. During their trip, they toured several SchoolBOX sites and visited the current school that they will rebuild.

The very small adobe structure holds 24 bright and energetic young students but has no windows and holes in the roof. HELPING COFFEE PRODUCERS

The Halls’ original goal has always been to help southern producers, which they have been able to do by paying the farmers a fair price and maintaining a relationship through their coffee buying co-op. However, now it is becoming a very handson personal experience and they are eager to make a difference in the community. “SchoolBOX is an amazing local organization that began very similarly to Equator - with the goal of making a real difference in developing countries,” said Craig. “Now, especially that we’ve seen firsthand their operations and progress in Nicaragua, we’re even more impressed with how they’re making use of their resources not only to help children, but to bring employment and pride to communities.” SchoolBOX and Equator are teaming up again for a fundraising golf tournament and dinner on July 2. The Kent Huskins Golf 4 SchoolBOX Charity Tournament is taking place at Pakenham Highlands Golf Club beginning at 11:30 a.m. Tickets are available at Equator Coffee or online at www.schoolbox.ca.

Marina meet and greet planned EMC news – All boaters who have rented a berth at the Arnprior marina are invited to a free barbecue lunch this weekend. The event will give the users a chance to voice their opinions on what changes are needed at the facility. Arnprior recreation director Glenn Arthur

will be on hand at the “meet and greet” to listen to the boaters. “I’ll listen to their views … see what’s making them happy and what’s not,” he said. Council is still struggling how best to run the town-owned marina on the lower reaches of the Madawaska River.

Arnprior & District Humane Society reaches lofty goal Steve Newman

fundraising walk of $10,000 was passed with $10,287 raised. “The response has been fabulous,� said Arnprior and District Humane Society president Ester Headrick. Fifty people registered for the walk, with many taking their canine companions for the tour in and around Robert Simpson Park. In recent seasons, the number of walkers has been in the 30s. The money raised goes for a wide variety of items, including hydro, inoculations and pet food. The annual fundraising walk has taken place for more than 20 years.

The lizard left its temporary home at the humane society to enjoy festivities Sunday at Robert Simpson Park, where the group’s vicepresident, Gail Mifflin, took care of Bumble Bee and helped other volunteers total up the pledges for this year’s fundraising walk.

Concerts in park popularity grows

PARK BENCH FOR A TOWN SUPPORTER Ontario Power Generation is a generous supporter of many Town of Arnprior Recreation activities, including Sunday Concerts in the Park, which opens another season this Sunday, June 24 at 2 p.m. To mark the years of support, the Town of Arnprior presented OPG with a commemorative bench. The bench sits proudly in Robert Simpson Park and is a reminder of the importance of community involvement. Andre Bourbonnais, manager at OPG’s Chats Falls Generating Station, at left, and Glenn Arthur, Parks and Recreation director, marked this special occasion during the Arnprior 150th celebrations.

EMC events – The third season of the Arnprior Concerts in the Park series kicks off this Sunday, June 24, with an old favourite. Just Two Guys will be entertaining for the first of two appearances in the Sunday series at Robert Simpson Park. The concerts run from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday until Aug. 26. “It went very well last year,� said Arnprior recreation director Glenn Arthur. It (audiences) are starting to build.� The concerts are sponsored by the Town of Arnprior, Greater Arnprior Chamber of Commerce and Nylene. The concerts take a break July 1 as there will be plenty of entertainment in the park for Canada Day. The entertainers for July are Johnny Spinks (8), Kyle Felhaver and Friends (15), Just Two Guys (22) and Simon Clarke (29). The series continues in August with Ball & Chain (5), Pat Hamlet and the Heart Breaks (12), Dennis Harrington & Heritage Country (19) and the Highland Dance Festival (26) during the White Pine Festival.

Sheepish passenger makes ride to town interesting ‘No one ever told me living on a farm would be like this’ EMC lifestyle - It didn’t take long for us to realize this was no ordinary trip into Renfrew for our Saturday supplies. I loved sitting in the back of the car where all the action was ... three brothers and my sister Audrey kept the place buzzing all the way into town

for the 12 ½ miles. But that day Mother steered me into the front to sit between her and Father. But Father and Everett were yet to appear. I figured they were in the barn checking on the livestock. Then we saw them, half dragging, half pushing a fullgrown sheep across the barn

yard. Audrey let a moan out of her that could be heard in Admaston and said she would stay home if Father had any intention of cramming “that sheep into the car.” Mother reminded her she was to pick out a new pair of shoes that day at Scott’s Shoe Store, so she had little choice.

My View From Island View

Rummage Sales So I was giving some thought to rummage sales. We are hosting a big rummage sale at Island View Retirement Suites this Saturday, June 23rd starting at 9am. I discovered that the term garage sale or rummage sale can also be referred to as a yard sale, tag sale, lawn sale, attic sale, moving sale or junk sale. Typically, individuals use these types of sales to get rid of unwanted items and make room for more modern pieces of furniture. I know this is how I made space for a new couch several years ago. I have also used the proverbial “garage sale” to make up for a short fall in the money department. Other popular motivations for a garage sale are spring and fall cleaning and moving. Some people think that there is a difference between a garage sale and a rummage sale. The difference being that the rummage sales have higher quality “stuff” then the garage sales but I have found in my travels that there is really no difference between the two. I have had some pretty good luck at rummage sales in the past. From decorative accessories for the garden to finding a paddle for my very old food processor at the Galetta Rummage Sale, these events can be fantastic places

to go hunting for bargains beyond your wildest imagination. I have also found very cool wine glasses, wasp catchers and a great dry mop for getting the dust bunnies out from underneath beds. You can pretty much be certain the staples of rummage sales will always be there, old toys, books, clothing and board games. One of the ladies that reside with us at Island View was telling me she found this very unique, beautiful and odd ring 30 years ago at a rummage sale. This exquisite piece of jewellery just caught her eye and she could not pass up the bargain. Pat shared with me that she paid $2.00 for this treasure and couldn’t help taking the ring in to be appraised. To her utter delight she discovered that this wonderful treasure was commissioned by Henny Youngman, a famous comedian in New York City in the 1940’s for a very special lady friend. Gary believes that rummage sales are just an excuse to buy other peoples junk but Eleanor’s collection of stuff squirreled away deep in her basement could fund a trip

When I go to rummage sales, I have to admit I am on a mission. I usually have a couple of items in mind that I am looking to acquire. Right now I want to find a small market umbrella for my cast iron patio set and wooden “Adirondack” chairs for my deck. Let the hunt begin! If you are not doing anything too exciting on Saturday morning, pop into Island View. We are located at 30 Jack Crescent. The sale begins at 9am. The money we raise will go towards new shelving for the resident’s library and you never know, your treasure may just be waiting for you.

WHAT’S HAPPENING AT ISLAND VIEW RETIREMENT SUITES

Emerson said he could always hang on to the running board outside the car if need be. It wouldn’t be the first time he tried that stunt, but that day it looked more and more like a possible solution. Mother said Father had to take the sheep into town where it would be turned over to a farmer from the Braeside area, who had made a deal with him. “Before you know it, we’ll be in town, and the sheep will be gone,” she said. Everett said it had better be shoved in the only door in the back that had any hinges left on it. The other one, once lost on the way into Renfrew, retrieved from the ditch on the way home, and then tied on with binder twine, would take too long to open. It looked to me like the sheep wasn’t too happy about being pushed into either door. Finally, Father took its hind legs, Everett its front, and they heaved him into the back of the car, right on top of everyone’s feet. Father slammed the door shut, which pushed the sheep further into the car, then Everett flew in behind it right over the door, Father jumped behind the steering wheel, and we took off. Emerson said later, it was the fastest he ever saw Father push the old car. There were no windows in the car, just those little roll-up blinds, and we were all grateful for the air that passed through from one side to the other,

as Father careened down the Northcote side road. From all appearances, we were just a normal family on its way into town to do the usual Saturday shopping for supplies. Emerson said the sheep had relieved itself, and Audrey said “that’s disgusting,” pushing her head out the side of the car as far as it would go. Mother, ever practical, told Emerson to use his foot and push it out the plate-sized hole in the floor in the back of the car. And so, the “deposit” was made along the Northcote side road, which to others travelling the route seeing it, wouldn’t find that to be so unusual, since livestock could often be seen being herded up and down the road. The real trouble started when we hit the outskirts of Renfrew. Father slowed down, the sheep was fast losing patience with its tight quarters, and it stuck its head out the window and let a string of bleats go that had people turning in their tracks on the street to see where the noise was coming from. This caused Audrey great embarrassment, and she slid down as far as she could go in the seat, and when I turned around to look, all I could see was the big flat pink ribbon

covering her black hair like a newspaper. The sheep was still voicing its disapproval, all along Raglan Street on the way to the drive shed where the drop-off spot was to be. Emerson was laughing his head off. There was no sound or sign of Earl, who was probably buried under Everett, who was trying to keep the sheep from jumping out the side of the car. “Just like a bunch of gypsies,” Audrey said over and over again, praying we’d meet no one who would recognize us. Father steered the car into the drive shed at the end of Raglan Street, came to a halt, and the sheep cleared the back door with one wild leap. The farmer who was there to collect it, pushed his straw hat to the back of his head and watched as the woolly animal tore around the lot like someone had filled it full of buckshot. My three brothers joined Father and the new owner and finally cornered it in one of the horse stalls. Audrey refused to get out of the car, even if it meant her new shoes would have to wait for another Saturday. Mother picked up what she needed at Walker’s, and at Ritza’s Drug Store collected her weekly copy of the Philadelphia Enquirer. The rest of the shopping for our supplies would have to wait. As soon as we got back to the farm, my sister Audrey took a bucket, a towel and a bar of homemade soap and headed for the Bonnechere River. She insisted three days later she still smelled of sheep. The brothers were given the job of washing out the back of the car. Mother, long after the daylight had gone was heard to say, almost in a whisper, “no one ever told me living on a farm would be like this.” New York City, where she had lived for 18 years, seemed very far away indeed.
