Heat wave Drought could lead to ‘major disaster for farmers’, worries fire departments Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – The drought afflicting area farmers is serious almost to the point of becoming critical, Renfrew County National Farmers Union (NFU) president Dave Mackay warned Tuesday.

He suggested the situation could turn into a “major disaster� if no rain is forthcoming soon. While the hot spell is expected to continue for the rest of the week, there are forecasts showing possible rain Sunday, although it could come with lightning.

The sunny summer may be a delight for tourists and cottagers, but area fire departments are on high alert and have implemented complete fire bans in many rural municipalities because the forest is so dry. The spectre of light-

ning storms has boosted worries about possible forest fires in the area.

There have already been a couple of bush fires, one in the Big Limestone Lake west of Calabogie and another in the Round Lake area in the last week, that had the potential of becoming more serious if the local fire departments hadn’t acted so quickly.

The township of McNabBraeside has responded with a “temporary fire ban� until further notice. The ban is complete, including backyards and campgrounds.

Rural fire departments are also worried that fires left smouldering by careless campers and outdoor partygoers could spread into the forest.

EMC news – They’ll be here for a good time, not a long time. But they guarantee to raise a little hell while in town.

Trooper is headlining the 158th Arnprior Fair, set for Aug. 9 to 12.

Fair board member Murray Swaine is torqued to welcome the iconic Can-con band back to the Prior, saying his favourite song is 3 Dressed up as a 9, but that numerous classics also jump to mind. “I’m excited,� Swaine said. “It’s great entertainment for a reasonable amount and there’s just so much more to see and do now (at the fair).�

Arnprior’s own Catalyst opens for Trooper on the fair’s Friday night, Aug. 10. Four former members of Hyrd Gunz joined up with a fifth to form the country rock band. A seasoned band, Catalyst has opened for Honeymoon Suite in the past and knows how to juice up a crowd.

The beer tent is back this year, after running dry in 2011. The stage will be moved closer to the tent making it possible for folks in the front seats to watch the band while enjoying a Don Cherry pop.

Other front row seats will be reserved for non-drinkers.

Another band at this year’s fair is Fifth Street. The country band from Renfrew plays Saturday night after the demolition derby.

Prize money totals $3,000 in the demo derby, with some 60 cars expected.

On Sunday afternoon the teen tribute All Stars – professional impersonators of Justin Bieber, Cody, Selena, Adele and Miss Swift – round out the musical entertainment. A contest at the newspaper office, 8 McGonigal St. W., offers free fair passes, a signed poster, backstage pass to meet and greet the performers, is underway.

Town Square planners to seek local sponsors Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news - Plans to upgrade an important link between the downtown and waterfront areas are at a stage where private sponsorship is being sought.

The town’s community improvement and tourism advisory committee (CITAC) got the OK from council at Monday’s meeting to offer sponsorship forms to corporations, residents and small businesses.

CITAC wants to improve the park area between the library and Madawaska Bridge with a tourist board (containing posters of upcoming events), a lighted decorative interlocking brick courtyard, and more.

A town report presented to council noted a planning document and advice from an outside group point to the need for something along the lines of the “150th Anniversary Commemorative Town Square.�

Dry weather playing havoc with soybean, corn crops: NFU Continued from front

In McNab-Braeside, Burnstown area residents have complained about people starting fires in the evening and late at night at a party beach near the old bridge peers in the village.

In Arnprior a permit is needed to have a fire; none are being issued at the moment.

Meanwhile, the effect the drought is having on agricultural operations is escalating rapidly. Mackay noted farmers had expressed concern two weeks ago, but the situation has worsened to “very critical” during the last week with no real relief in the long range weather forecast. It appears the areas most affected are Renfrew, Lanark and Hastings counties, and the Ottawa-Carleton area, he said.

“This is a one-in-50-year

drought,” said Mackay. “The last one recorded was in 1965 and it may not have been as severe so early in the growing season.

“Lack of rain, very hot days and spurts of gusting winds have played havoc with corn crops …. (as well as) soybeans, hemp, small grains and hay. In addition, it appears most farmers are experiencing very dry pastures with some beef farmers having to resort to already feeding hay and it being only the middle of July.”

Second-cut hay fields are being cut with so little hay in the windrows that it is barely visible, he said.

Some farmers are worried what may happen to the re-growth on these fields, he added. However, they appeared to have no other option at this time.

“Local beef and hog farmers and some cash croppers were barely getting into a recovery mode after about eight years of below cost of production returns following the mad cow situation,” said Mackay.

“Now those same farmers are faced with another disaster. In addition to feed supplies being affected, wells and watering holes are going dry.”

Only a percentage of farmers carry hay and pasture insurance, Mackay pointed out. “Tapping into that insurance program never covers all the losses involved.

“In summary, we want to advise our farmers that the NFU is taking action to advise our agricultural contacts of the seriousness of this exceptional dry weather affecting our family farms,” Mackay concluded.

Veteran McNab-Braeside landscaper John Milliken spends most of the summer outside. This has been among the worst he’s had to endure.

“It’s one of the driest and hottest summers I’ve ever seen,” he said.

“The only thing to save you from the heat is to drink lots of fluids and take lots of breaks. If you feel dizzy, get in the shade. And use sunscreen.”

MILLIKEN’S ADVICE

Despite popular opinion, Milliken said it is possible to plant throughout the summer. The worst thing to do is leave plants in holders where there is even less moisture. As for hanging plants and flowers, anything in pots, they won’t last a weekend away without water in this heat.

“If you’re going away, ask your

neighbours to water them,” he said.

He added that the right tree in the right place, shading a window for instance, will save money in the summer on air conditioning. It will save heating bills in the winter when leafless and the sun shines through.

Arnprior Coun. Ted Strike said the town has no plans for enforcing water restrictions.

“We don’t have any and hope not to for many years,” he said, adding the recently upgraded water collection plant should be able to deal with the conditions.

The hot days are tempered by fairly cool evenings, hovering around 8 degrees Celsius some nights. There is promise of greater relief on the weekend with predicted thunder showers.

Many new vendors brought aboard for this year’s Arnprior Fair Continued from front

The fun starts on the Thursday with the same large midway from last year.

“We expect to have many more vendors this year,” said Swaine, of the Arnprior Agricultural Society’s efforts.

One is a fire truck with an addition that cooks pizzas in two to three minutes. The 1967 Fargo fire truck has an oven installed at the rear that will wood-fire food at 700 degrees Fahrenheit.

Another is an oversized barbecue that will roast pigs. It was featured on Dragons’ Den. “Come meet the guy that cuts and cooks it,” Swaine said of 30-year butcher Keith McEvoy.

Cotton candy, candy apples and all the favourites will fuel up spectators for the truck and tractor pull, starting at 6:30 p.m. Thursday.

Ray’s Reptiles will also be on hand to amaze

kids and adults alike.

Ray’s is back on the Friday, from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. The team penning group will offer demonstrations on cattle round-up from 4 to 7 p.m., before the concert starts.

Team penning is back on the Saturday from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., along with Ray’s from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. Crashing cars in the demo derby starts 5 p.m. Swaine jokingly said he can’t promise there won’t be any fires, which is why Arnprior’s firefighters will closely observe the event. Don’t expect a measly continental breakfast on the Sunday morning. From 10 to 11:30 a.m. it’ll be pancakes and plenty more – all free with admission. Team penning and Ray’s will be back, but it’ll be the strongman competition many will look forward to, along with the musical All Stars.

Canlok Stone Inc.

With no Ottawa Ex or Capital Hoedown, the organizers at the fair board are working hard to put on a great show this year. But they can’t do it alone.

Anyone wanting to volunteer to direct traffic or work the flags at the tractor pull or demo derby, or helping with a host of other duties, should contact the board at arnpriorfair.ca or 613-622-0079.

NEW SOLAR BARN

A delegation from the Arnprior Agricultural Society, led by Treena Toner, presented to councillors at Monday’s Arnprior council meeting plans to build a large barn topped with solar panels.

By midsummer next year, Hay Solar wants to have a 250-foot by 50-foot barn with solar panels mounted on the roof on the fairground. The project would be part of the province’s feed-in tariff (FIT) program, meaning a percentage of profit earned from feeding the electrical grid will go back to paying for capital costs.

“We’re here looking for an ‘It’s a good idea’ kind of thing,” Toner told council, which agreed to have a formal endorsement in place before the two-week deadline. The agricultural society needs council’s OK to earn points toward bumping its project higher up the province’s priority list.

Toner explained the project will cost $500,000, with $90,000 going toward the barn.

She said now that the curling club is sold, the agricultural society needs more storage space.

It plans to house horses at times, and set up exhibitions inside.

“It seems like a win-win,” Mayor David Reid said. “We’ll get it dealt with somehow.”

This region has some of the strongest and longest exposures to sunlight in all of Ontario.

Hay Solar plans to use the barn as a demonstration site, meaning it will take potential clients on tours.

All construction materials and labour would be acquired locally. The barn would have garage doors, windows and located on the north side of the property, behind and to the left of the brown barn.

BUT NO HORSE RACING

The Arnprior Agricultural Society’s plan to bring horse racing to the fairgrounds has been derailed by recent decisions made by the provincial government. The idea was to have harness racing at the track, but with the cancellation of a fund aimed at bolstering the gambling-related form of entertainment gone, agricultural society president Jeff Desarmia said the idea is a non-starter.

Even Rideau-Carleton Raceway’s future is uncertain, he said. Going ahead with the racetrack plans without government help won’t make any sense either, he added; there might not be any racing horses left.

Highway 417 intersection lobby continues EMC news - McNab-Braeside council is not about to give up in its lobby for some sort of improved traffic control at the Highway 17Calabogie Road intersection.

The Ministry of Transportation has rejected the council’s appeal for a traffic light at the intersection. Council had argued the light is needed because of the difficulties of motorists accessing or crossing the highway with the high traffic volumes. Councillors agreed at their July 3 meeting to start keeping a log of their experiences at the intersection.

Having data covering many days is better than making a decision based on one day’s activities last August, like the MTO did, said Mayor Mary Campbell. She suggested the township could renew its lobby at next month’s Association of Ontario Municipalities conference or by asking for a meeting with MTO regional director Kathy Moore. She said the efforts are timely as Renfrew County met recently with provincial officials to argue the highway needs to be four-laned to Pembroke for safety and economic development reasons.

Arnprior plans for inaugural music festival Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – Robert Simpson Park could be home to a new music festival, Pride of the Prior, as early as next spring.

The town’s community improvement and tourism advisory committee (CITAC) won the blessing of council at the July 9 meeting to coordinate and begin fundraising for the annual festival, to take place annual on the second Saturday in June.

CITAC chairwoman Lynn Grinstead said the

festival will showcase talent from the town and surrounding areas, primarily involving youth from local dance companies – which take in youth from West Carleton, McNab-Braeside and elsewhere. Similar to the dance routines in the gazebo during Canada Day, the festivities will begin with youth talent and maybe a dunk tank and a few side attractions, then move toward older folks playing country, pop, and ending about 11 p.m. with rock acts.

“We have so much talent that is borne in this community,” Grinstead told council.

“I’m excited about it.”

People who attend the recent 150th anniversary celebrations have told councillors that it was the primarily the music that drew them to the park. Many said it reminded them of the former Salute to the Valley music festival once held in town.

The ‘First Impressions Community Exchange’ report last year by visitors from Kemptville also suggested the town host more “community-oriented festivals,” Grinstead said.

She added that the town won’t be expected

to contribute to costs, but Coun. Ted Strike liked the idea so much he said he wouldn’t rule out taxpayers help pay for it.

Reeve Walter Stack called it “a good idea.”

Mayor David Reid agreed, saying the town didn’t spend a lot of money on the 150th, but that all taxpayers would agree the money was well spent. The choosing of early June to hold the event is meant to avoid overlap with the popular Concerts in the Park series held during summer months, along with the upcoming White Pine Festival, and August’s fair.

Town passes library deal with McNab-Braeside Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – The library deal with McNabBraeside passed at Arnprior council’s meeting Monday.

The bylaw passed with little comment at the July 9 meeting.

However, library board chairman Neil Salminen was on hand to explain that the agreement isn’t between the two municipalities, although that is how the signed document appears.

Libraries are at arm’s length from municipalities, and something of a creature of the province. Therefore, the agreement is actually between the library board and the Township of McNab-Braeside.

“Historically, it was signed between the two councils,” Salminen explained. “But it should have been between McNab-Braeside and the board.”

The township won’t qualify for a provincial grant covering library services if it accepts the deal from the town rather than the library

board, he said, adding that the board is “quasiindependent.”

Coun. Dan Lynch appeared miffed by the explanation, indicating the board should have handled the contentious negotiations on its own.

“Really, we shouldn’t have been there,” Lynch said. “You’ve gotten us to do it for you.”

Salminen said it wasn’t a matter of “pitting council against council.” He said negotiations over the library and recreation services have

historically taken place at the same time, and that it is easier for one team to represent Arnprior’s interests.

He also said the talks grew bitter and involved much of the public.

“It became very political, and you’re the political people,” Salminen said.

Mayor David Reid agreed, saying the deal affects Arnprior taxpayers making it crucial for town councillors to get involved.

McNab-Braeside already formally agreed to the deal.

Tourism association manager addresses county council Steve Newman Steve.newman@metroland.com

EMC news - She’s an Alberta gal, but a sparkling advertisement for spending tourism dollars in Renfrew County.

Nicole Whiting, of the two-year-old Ontario’s Highlands Tourism Organization, manages one of the province’s 13 regional tourism organizations that are working to attract more tour-

ists to their respective backyards.

That sometimes takes advertising, which OHTO is doing mostly the digital way, but also by word of mouth.

Whiting attended the June 28 meeting of Renfrew County council where she was the only delegation. Given that everyone was heading into Canada Day weekend, she said it was appropriate that travel and leisure was on the

minds of many residents. She also shared her own enthusiasm for her new home.

Brought up in Alberta, she left Calgary to come east to study. She returned west to work for a while, but came east again, to Renfrew County, where she and husband Ken Whiting began Heliconia Press. She left the company two years ago to join OHTO, but her husband and staff continue to produce special programming for NBC Sports, Outside Television and the World Fishing Network.

In her position as OHTO manager, she has the task of spearheading tourism’s profile in the local region that consists of Renfrew, Haliburton Lennox and Addington, Hastings, Frontenac and Lanark counties.

It’s the second largest tourism region in Ontario, at 23,840 square kilometres. The region also features more than 700 lakes and major river systems, including the Rideau Canal, more than 400 animal species, and over 20 species if fish.

Notable to-visit locations on OHTO’s website include one of Canada’s smallest jail houses, Canada’s only clock museum, and scores of canoe and kayak routes that have helped name

the Ottawa Valley the Whitewater Capital of Canada.

Whiting says the region needs so share its world-class outdoor experiences with the world. “And we can do that, particularly because of the fact that online anyone can reach target markets,” she stresses.

“No longer do you need multi-million dollar budgets to reach the people you think would be attracted to the types of experiences you have to offer.”

With an annual budget of about $1 million, Whiting said the organization is using its tight budget primarily in the area of digital advertising to increase the region’s attractiveness to tourists.

She spoke about all the “great tourism initiatives that are happening in the Valley,” and the cooperative work being done in partnership with various organizations, including the Ottawa Valley Tourist Association, to “help support and leverage tourism excellence across the region.” She also told listeners that tourism is Ontario’s ninth-ranked export industry.

“Given these economic realities, this has changed how government views in ministry of tourism, culture and sport. It’s now considered an economic ministry.”

Meanwhile, OHTO is among 13 regional tourism organizations created in 2010, and funded by the provincial government, to promote tourism. Provincial support for the 13 tourism organizations includes $40 million in annual funding as they press the theme of Go Tourism.

Each regional tourism organization, therefore, has received base funding of $500,000, and proportional allocation that was $409,000 for this year. That’s the lowest of the 13 tourism organizations, with that amount expected to rise about two per cent per year.

New, for 2013, will be the introduction of a partner-funding program. This may result in additional funds, amounting to up to 20 per cent of the proportional-allocation funding “to encourage other organizations, and municipalities, who have an interest in tourism, to work with Ontario’s Highlands Tourism Organization.”

Airport attracts another large crowd to Fly-in Breakfast EMC events - About 800 people attended the event and about 700 breakfasts were served.

A total of 21 aircraft joined the planes stationed at Arnprior airport. Although it was a sunny clear day, the winds were fairly high in the morning, which reduced aircraft attendance.

Mike Asselin said the organizers received many compliments on the breakfast and organization of the event,.

The organizers thanked the community for coming out, airport staff and volunteers, various pilots who attended the event, Arnprior Community Policing, Vintage Wings of Canada, Carp Fair, John A. Burnett Farm Equip, and the Arnprior Fire Department. “Also a big thank-you goes to Denis Bellerose who graciously provided the hangar for the breakfast,” said Asselin.

The Canadian Owners and Pilots Association (COPA) Flight 33, hosts of the breakfast, made a donation of some supplies the Shepherds of Good Hope, which expressed gratitude.

Asselin said the pilots anticipate holding the breakfast again in July 2013.

Council opts for higher bid in streetscape project Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

EMC news – The company chosen to plan the upgrades to downtown lighting and landscaping is not the lowest bidder, it was decided at the July 9 Arnprior council meeting.

Council deferred deciding between 11 companies that offered proposals at its June 25 meeting. At the time, staff suggested not going with the lowest bidder, an uncommon but not unheard of recommendation at the municipal level.

Council at the time wanted a full report on how staff arrived at the recommendation.

On Monday night all council members – except for Reeve Walter Stack and Coun.

Dan Lynch – opted to go with MMM Group, at $40,144 before HST, rather than the lowest bidder, f.d. fountain, at $24,951 before HST. Four companies were considered; MMM offer was the most expensive.

Mayor David Reid said MMM has a larger team of experts, more experience in the specific field required, and at 400 hours committed almost double the time offered by f.d. fountain.

He added that MMM produced the community improvement plan and, therefore, would have a better understanding of Arnprior’s needs.

Reid suggested the place to skimp on costs is not here, at the Streetscape and Landscape Design Plan, which is the “visible part” of a

multi-million infrastructure improvement project. He said the upgrades will be part of the town for the next 30 years or more, and that it is “important to get the right firm.”

Lynch said f.d. fountain has done two urban plans in Ottawa, and that he can’t find the justification for spending the additional money.

Stack agreed, saying he can’t see the benefit in spending an additional $15,000.

“I don’t see the justification for almost double the cost,” he said.

Coun. Lyle Anderson said he has dealt with MMM in his day job on Parliament Hill, and that it is “going to get the best job with the most qualified people.”

Reid, himself an engineer, said it is crucial that the chosen company understand parking requirements, water run-off from landscaped areas, and other factors. He added that given the 400 hours versus 200, MMM is actually cheaper.

Councillors Mark Willmer and Ted Strike stressed getting the product the town wants, and that two attempts at a similar streetscape plan in the past failed.

“The hours are needed, from past experience,” said Strike, a former public works director.

Coun. Lynn Grinstead said she liked that MMM had better plans to involve the community in the planning process.

COUNTY OF RENFREW REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT FOR THE RENOVATION OF AN OFFICE BUILDING IN THE TOWN OF ARNPRIOR The County of Renfrew is accepting proposals for the following project to be initiated in the summer of 2012: REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL: 2012-PROPERTY-02 To provide Construction Management Services for the renovation project at the county-owned facility at 80 McGonigal Street, Arnprior, Ontario.

Town Square to connect downtown, waterfront Continued from front

“The completed and council-approved community improvement plan suggests the town to undertake improvements to its waterfront area, trails and open spaces that enhance the connectivity to the waterfronts, increase amenities and enhance recreational experience,” reads the report. “Furthermore, the 2011 First Impression Community Exchange observed the potential for tourism information, sitting area, and greenspace, to improve the trail in the area with more benches and sub parks.”

LIBRARY EXPANSION

Coun. Ted Strike did not indicate that he opposed the plans, but wondered if the town square project may interfere with the library’s future plans.

At the meeting was chief librarian Karen DeLuca. She said options are being considered for “beside the widows” of the library, meaning a fair distance from the circle and bell areas.

She said about 20 feet could be converted into a reading terrace or a four-season solarium.

Grinstead, who sits on the library board, gave assurances that the two won’t clash.

Coun. Dan Lynch said he supports the project, but wonders where folks will park in and around busy Madawaska and Daniel streets.

Grinstead said the gateway linking the waterfront and downtown is primarily for pedestrians, meaning people coming up from the park and working their way to the commercial sector, or those finished browsing and looking to enjoy nature. She cautioned that Hydro Park West will not be the tourist centre of Arnprior.

Reeve Walter Stack agreed with her, saying he sees the park as primarily for local residents.

Mayor David Reid said he agrees with the sponsorship program, but that because the current design plan was put together to meet a grant deadline, he would like to see more time spent on putting together a better one. He suggested the company chosen to oversee the downtown streetscape development be included in the Hydro Park design plan. Grinstead appeared less than enthusiastic about the idea.

Vandals hit Braeside, River Road homes EMC news – Renfrew OPP report that several reflectors and solar lights were smashed in a yard on Braecrest Avenue in Braeside over the Canada day long weekend.

There are no suspects.

A vehicle at a McNab-Braeside home on Hayes Street just west of Arnprior had a tire flattened overnight on July 7. There are also no suspects. Also overnight on July 7 someone threw a beer bottle through the rear window

of a vehicle parked on River Road in McNabBraeside. OPP Constable David Ladd is investigating both incidents.

They were three of 200 calls for service the Renfrew OPP responded to last week, including eight domestic disputes. Police charged one woman with making harassing phone calls, one man with assault with a weapon and breach of probation, and another man with assault with a weapon and uttering threats

Canadians grow more patriotic, but letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stay Canadian

We Canadians can often be viewed as the meek northern cousins to the mighty United States.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the nice part of North America, the ones so polite when we travel abroad that we are actually welcomed warmly when we announce â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re from Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

Of course, that respectful manner doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t extend to all venues. The language used in just about any hockey arena, for one, might shock those who hold fast to the stereotypical view

of the friendly Great White North. And according to a recent Ipsos Reid poll commissioned

by The Historica-Dominion Institute, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re becoming less and less shy about showing our true colours and putting them on display for the world to see.

While weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not quite there yet, we do seem to be taking a page from Americans and their often overt display of patriotism. Here in Arnprior, just about every school flies the maple leaf flag year round. The same can be said

Local residents appear split over whether fireworks are fun or outdated.

for many businesses. According to the survey numbers: 77 per cent of us would encourage our fellow Canadians to be more patriotic, and 74 per cent believe showing the flag in any way (including on underwear) is a good thing.

And just to show how boastful (or perhaps itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s confidence) weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re becoming, the majority of us believe we have a better flag, anthem and system of government than other countries like the U.S., Great Britain, France and Germany.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing wrong with showing pride

in oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s country. And certainly the head of the Historica-Dominion Institute sees it as a positive, noting: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thrilled to see that in fact, Canadians are ready to show their pride in all kinds of ways, both traditional and non-traditional.â&#x20AC;?

But we also donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to take it too far.

Tempering that enthusiasm with a touch of humility remains a national trait and would keep us on the right path.

After all, we are Canadian.

NDP antics should put Canadians on guard To the editor: Beware Canada of socialism if the NDP should ever govern our country.

The NDP is trying to put up a jovial front with those around them. But they are fear-mongers. My opinion of the chicken-lickinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Trojan horses that sit on the left: the three Bs -Baffled, Bewildered, Befuddled.

For too many people Canada will become a grim and joyless place in the future.

Being narcissistic is a mental disorder, a belief that you are superior to others, a disregarding the feelings of others. But behind this mask lies a fragile self-esteem. If the NDP becomes the next government, they would react the same as the former NDP provincial government did

in their four years and be booted out.

They were like a dog chasing a car. When it catches it, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what to do with it.

The NDP tried single-handedly to eradicate all the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget bills. What about Peter Julianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 13-hour fiasco with all the emails, from mom and those only God would know? Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rude by the opposition is the stalling by standing up or sitting back down, indicating ideology and childish legislation only condoned by a bunch of wingnuts.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re fearmongers like their mouthpiece Pat Martin.

Fairgrounds better than parks for dog area To the Editor: At Robert Simpson Park on Friday, a black half-ton truck drove up, the wife and dog got out and proceeded along the beach.

Of course the dog did his â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;businessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; several times along the beach. The wife returned to the truck and off they went.

Obviously this was not a requirement for waterfront for the dog. Was there no other possible spot for the dog to dump his load, not near the beach? How about on their own property!

Many dog owners are already using Robert Simpson park as a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;dog off-leashâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; park. We have witnessed it many times.

Please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let Arnprior go to the dogs; at least not near our beautiful waterfront. Our children and grandchildren play there, families picnic there. Many just go to relax and read by the river.

Dogs would be just as healthy and happy running off-leash in a more remote part of the town, i.e. fairgrounds.

A review of the dog parks in Brockville and Nepean revealed the same complaint. Dog owners bring their dogs, coffee in hand, and let them loose. No one cleans up after them.

These are complaints by the dog-owners themselves. I cannot imagine volunteers cleaning up after other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dogs. The bacteria danger alone dictates that they should not be near our source of drinking water.

It appears that here in Arnprior we take our waterfront for granted.

What will be the cost of the new dog park?

Will the cost include the cost of using a portion of our precious waterfront?

Surely the taxes of the majority can be used for more important issues. For example, Daniel Street is a heavily used street by everyone including tourists. How about cleaning up the two eyesore lots on Daniel Street, one fenced in and the other is an abandoned gas station?

In addition, many streets are in need of repaving. A dog park pales by comparison.

If a dog park is a necessity, move it away from the waterfront and kids playgrounds, i.e. the fairgrounds.

Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s put people first and do all that we can to preserve one of Arnpriorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest assets.

Are eggs cheaper by the dozen?

EMC lifestyle - For female animals, eggs are the currency of life.

While all local mammals and a few reptiles including Garter Snakes retain eggs internally and give “live birth,” the majority of female creatures lay eggs externally.

Songbirds make elaborate nests that hold their eggs and hatchlings for several weeks.

Turtles deposit their eggs in excavated pits that are backfilled and abandoned.

Wolf Spiders and Nursery Web spiders carefully wrap their eggs – in some cases many hundreds – in a silk sac, which is carried around until hatching time. Wolf Spiders attach the sac to their spin-

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way nerets while Nursery Web Spiders carry theirs in their chelicerae.

Most female insects place their eggs in an appropriate habitat. While this might

sound like a simple process, great selectivity in site is usually shown.

Many damselflies insert their eggs into the stems of plants submerged just beneath the water’s surface. While many dragonflies drop their eggs directly in water, they do so only in water demonstrating the right depth and flow rate for their species.

Butterflies and moths lay their eggs on plants with a notable exception being the Harvester. This small butterfly lays its eggs in the middle of Woolly Aphid colonies, which the ensuing caterpillars eat. For all other lepidopteran species, however, careful selection of a specific species of

plant often takes place before eggs are laid.

Currently, female butterflies can be seen flitting from plant to plant, looking for ones on which to oviposit.

Even though their targets may not be in flower, butterflies must identify the correct species on which to lay their eggs because the caterpillars often have very restricted diets.

A butterfly’s front legs are often used to “taste” a plant for its chemical fingerprint; the botanical skills of these tiny animals put most of us to shame.

Recently I watched a Black Swallowtail, a stunning black butterfly with yellow and blue spots on its wings, flit-

ting through a field. Although more than a dozen species of plants adorned this wild garden, the butterfly landed on only one type. It specifically chose Wild Carrot, more commonly known as Queen Anne’s Lace.

However, it did not land on just any Wild Carrot. It avoided plants that bore flowers, choosing instead younger individuals that had not yet matured. On these it would briefly sit, continually flapping its wings as it deposited an egg or two. The numbers of eggs a female animal lays varies tremendously. Birds often lay only four or five.

Butterflies lay dozens while flies such as Mosquitoes lay

many hundreds.

Generally, the more eggs an animal produces, the smaller they are, with each containing less protein and other invested materials than do eggs of animal that lays fewer eggs. Thus, on a per-egg basis, a butterfly invests less in her eggs than does a robin.

However, when the total investment each female puts into producing and laying eggs is considered, overall there really is not much difference between species.

As far as Nature is concerned, eggs really are not cheaper by the dozen!

Springing into action to rescue Arnprior Arnie

R0011498468/0712

To the Editor: There is a famous groundhog named ‘Willy’ in Ontario.

Pennsylvania has one named ‘Phil’ and, of course, Nova Scotia has one named ‘Sam’.

All are able to forecast the arrival of spring or at least that is the gist of their experience.

Now Arnprior has one too, actually Arnprior has quite a few, but ours, at least temporarily so, was named ‘Àrnie’.

This is a story about Arnie that Arnprior resident Bill MacDonald took for a ride, and in turn the critter took Bill for a ride too!

On May 6, Bill got into his car and, lo and behold, his ESP traction control light alerted him to a problem with his engine. Somehow his transmission appeared to be

in difficulty, but Bill could not determine the exact cause. He was able to drive the car but could not take in to the local Chrysler dealer until May 7.

On that momentous day, the usual adept and learned mechanical team was not sure what the problem was, but they began their diagnostic routine as per their standard operating procedures. Lo and behold, a strange growling noise came from the engine area that was clearly not mechanical in nature (no pun intended).

Further examination revealed an annoyed groundhog that somehow got into Bill’s engine and could not free itself. So it tried to devour what was keeping him holed up, if you get my drift.

What he ate through was

about $300 plus of wiring.

And he did that over a 24hour period, even as Bill was driving very slowly and deliberately around town.

Now Bill didn’t drive the car for 24 hours, but just long enough to know he needed to take the car in for an inspection.

So what did the lads at Arnprior Chrysler do about it? Well, they decided to do the humane thing by putting the car up on the hoist after placing a bin and large plastic bag beneath the engine well. In short order, Arnie took up their generous offer and dropped into the bin. All the while making growling sounds that only a frustrated and angry groundhog could make.

THE TOWNSHIP OF LANARK HIGHLANDS

Arnprior’s Bill MacDonald was surprised to find this groundhog lodged in his engine.

Imagine the heartburn he or she must have had after eating all that nourishing wiring.

The Chrysler team took photos of Arnie, then they took him eastward out of Arnprior to a place in our capital

city where ‘Arnprior Arnie’ was released.

As he scampered away, I am told (tongue in cheek) that he was renamed ‘Ottawa Ollie’.

Now that we have lost our

version of Willy/Phil/Sam et al, I wondered if it was too late to determine if spring has finally arrived.

Financial surplus among highlights of ARH’s year Theresa Fritz theresa.fritz@metroland.com

EMC news – The newly named Arnprior Regional Health (ARH), which includes the Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital and The Grove Nursing Home among its services, ended its fiscal year on a high note.

While the corporation did not find itself drenched in black ink at the annual general meeting June 27, a small fiscal surplus was just one of the many highlights spoken to

by ARH CEO and president Eric Hanna.

“This past year, we achieved a surplus of $149,000 on an operating budget of close to $25 million. That’s pretty close to the line. That’s about half of one per cent of a surplus … meeting the Local Health Integration Network accountability agreement.”

Hanna acknowledged the hard work of all those associated with provide health services, citing a busy and exciting year of providing quality health care services to the community. The standard by which the quality of those services is measured is by a patient/resident satisfaction survey.

Last year, patient satisfaction was 94 per cent, emergency department patient satisfaction 93 per cent and Grove resident satisfaction 95 per cent, and the quest will continue to improve on those numbers, he said.

“It is still a continued focus to move

While we are doing that, it is important to not lose sight with

our need to improve clinical outcomes,” Hanna said. “The evidence suggests that clinical outcomes result in lower costs.”

While he noted the financials can never be overlooked, there is much more to sustainable health care than numbers.

“It is also important to remember we want to focus on financial results and we want to focus on other strategies as well,” Hanna said, adding there is no longer a reliance on a scorecard to gauge success but rather strategic pillars.

There are five such pillars of Arnprior Regional Health and they include service, quality, people, resources and community.

“We focused on five strategic areas this past year and, as well, each one of these five different areas we had a number of different goals,” Hanna explained.

“We achieved six of eight goals.

“My commitment to you and the rest of the senior management team, to the board and everyone else is the same.

This is the direction of improvement the organization needs to make and we are very pleased to say we achieved it with a lot of hard work. Next year, there are 15 goals.”

In conclusion, Hanna said everyone should be proud of the achievements of the past year.

“Overall I think our year was very positive both from financial, clinical, patient satisfaction scores, etc.,” he concluded.

ARH board chair Jay Johnston spoke about the myriad of ARH services offered and how they have continued to evolve over the last year, beginning with the Assisted Living program.

“It matches the needs of seniors of seniors and their caregivers with the appropriate local support services to help seniors stay in their homes and avoid premature admission to the hospital or long-term care homes,” Johnston reported.

Planning for redevelopment of The Grove Nursing Home continued to move forward and the facility also benefitted from new technology.

Johnston said e-Mar keeps tracks of medication for all Grove residents so doctors and nurses can track information, thus reducing the possibility of medication error “The new medical day program at the hospital offers a variety of transfusion services at the hospital. The setting is private and more comfortable in comparison to the previous clinical area, which did not have the dedicated space,” noted Johnston.

The addition of a third orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Chris Brown, has been a big addition to Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital and Johnston noted the hospital and nursing home “continue to collaborate with health and community partners - with the Champlain Community Care Access Centre, CNIB, Arnprior District High school are just three examples of how we are reaching out and expanding the care we provide. As well, the new Arnprior District Family Health Care Team is settling in at the Primary Health Care Centre.”

Johnston noted all of these accomplishments led to the creation of ARH. See HOSPITAL Page 11

Hospital laboratory integration celebrated EMC news – Tuesday, July 10 marked the landmark 100th day since the Eastern Ontario Regional Laboratory Association (EORLA) went live.

It was on April 1, after nine years of planning, that the largest first-of-its-kind clinical integration of regional laboratories became officially operational as the member-owned, not-for-profit EORLA. This ground-breaking collaboration is geared to improving quality in patient care and effectively managing costs.

A total of 16 member hospitals, including Arnprior District Memorial, spread over 19 sites in the Champlain Local Health Integration Network (LHIN), have voluntarily joined forces and resources “in an effort to better serve patients.”

Through combined efficiencies and best-in-class processes, systems and technology, EORLA says it will enable higher performance in laboratory services while continuing to focus on high-quality patient care.

Since April 1, 850 staff have transitioned to EORLA. They have collected 125,000 specimens and performed four million laboratory tests so far.

“I am so proud of our EORLA staff and the work they do, often behind the scenes, each and every day,” said EORLA CEO Dr. Jim Dalton.

“For the past 100 days they have remained focused on their patients and providing the highest quality results, while at the same time building an integrated system we can all celebrate. I am excited about the opportunities for further collaboration that exist as we move forward together in the coming months.”

Work together to address children’s health problems: Munter CHEO CEO praises Eastern Ontario’s rural hospitals as ‘effective partners’ in children’s health care John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC news –Community hospitals are playing a major role in helping the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario tackle children’s health problems, CHEO CEO Alex Munter said during a trip to the Upper Ottawa Valley June 28.

In an address to the Renfrew Victoria Hospital board prior to its annual meeting, Munter shared his message about the importance of combined efforts to deal with growing youth mental health and obesity problems.

He also raised the issue earlier that day at a Renfrew County Community Engagement and Action workshop at Calabogie Peaks. He spoke about ‘Building Healthy Communities’ at the conference, using his perspective as a member of Ontario’s Healthy Kids Panel.

The coming together of various health care representatives to find solutions to strengthening services for children in the rural areas is an encouraging step, he said.

Munter also visited with youth at the Phoenix Centre for Children and Families in Renfrew. CHEO is working with the organization, providing training and programs so troubled teens can be assessed and treated locally, he noted.

In his speech in Renfrew, Munter talked about CHEO’s work in promoting healthy communities in Renfrew County and praised the “very effective” partnerships between CHEO and Renfrew County’s five hospitals.

“I got to see some great work happening here,” he said of his day in the area.

Munter said it is important for administrators to get out into the community to see what is and isn’t working when it comes to tackling health care problems.

He shared a story about dealing with a malnutrition epidemic in Vietnam by observing and using what some local people were do-

ing right instead of trying to impose a solution from outside.

“The moral of the story is that it’s all about bright spots … finding out what’s already working,” he said.

Renfrew County is “full of bright spots,” said Munter. “There are a lot of successes here.”

Renfrew County is leading the way in Eastern Ontario in some areas, he said, noting it is the best in the region in helping seniors stay in their homes as long as possible.

Munter said working with community hospitals is a great benefit to CHEO, particularly in regards to its mission to bring care closer to patients.

An RVH-CHEO partnership started five years ago, in which CHEO provided training and support, enabling many children to be treated at RVH instead of having to make the trek into Ottawa, he said. It also contributes to programs that help keep children healthy and avoid the need for them to go to the hospital in the first place.

CHEO has also developed programs dealing with children’s obesity with the Deep River hospital and with children’s diabetes with the Pembroke hospital, he noted.

Munter pointed out CHEO arranges for a pediatric outreach clinic to regularly visit Valley hospitals. CHEO physicians will continue to provide regular teleconference lectures on everything from croup to asthma, he said.

He also praised the nurse practitioners and other health care professionals on both sides who have transferred their knowledge and built their skills “so you can provide the services that support children and youth right here.”

MENTAL ILLNESS

Munter said renewed efforts are needed by society to slow the increase in mental health

of community- and school-based services, he said. “We need to work with the Royal Ottawa and community providers to strengthen that … (provide) more supports to help youth dealing with chronic mental illness,” he added.

Munter said while the health care system has to be proactive to the problem, “the crisis services have to be there.” The system has to create new ways to help the afflicted youth and find practical solutions to connect services, he stressed. “We’ve got to do better.”

CHILDHOOD OBESITY

Working with community hospitals on obesity and mental health is a benefit to CHEO, says Alex Munter. and obesity problems that threaten to overwhelm hospitals. Already one in five young people suffer from some form of mental illness, he said, adding that the rise has dramatically boosted crisis visits to CHEO’s emergency department and keeps its mental health beds perpetually full.

The problem is that many of the youth, like some seniors in hospital beds, are too well to stay in a hospital bed, but not well enough to go home, he said.

He pointed out that mental health problems come in a wide range, with mood disorders, depression and anxiety being the most common.

While there is some evidence it is on the rise, it is also being detected better, he said.

The positive aspects are that there is better understanding of mental illness and the stigma is slowly receding, he added. Four out of five youth are not struggling with mental illness, “so we need to build on that,” he said.

Munter said the key to success for those suffering mental illness is to intervene early. “We need to do a better job in making services available in schools and the community to identify and treat them before it gets to the crisis stage,” he said. “That’s why it should be a priority for all institutions to put services in place.”

The 43 per cent return rate of young mental health patients to CHEO is a reflection of a lack

He said strategies must also be developed to tackle childhood obesity, affecting 26 per cent of youth in Eastern Ontario and even a higher rate in Renfrew County. If nothing is done and current trends continue, it could mean up to 70 per cent of these youth will be obese when they are in their 30s and 40s, he said.

With obesity contributing to such major health care problems as high blood pressure, diabetes and health attacks, hospitals wouldn’t be able to keep up with such an increase.

“Now’s the time to combat the problem.”

CHEO experts are helping others formulate a provincial strategy to the problem. However, they are also looking for partnerships to deliver the message and programs on a local level, explained Munter.

He noted there are already a number of effective programs in Renfrew County working on the problem, he said, pointing to Shauna Babcock’s Kid Active as one.

It’s also important to enlighten parents on what they should be doing to help their children, he added. “They’re looking for information and support.”

A major change is coming to children’s health care, he said, noting that “delivering health care today” will come with a focus on “how to best protect the health of kids tomorrow.”

He explained that as more and more children survive childhood illnesses, “we have to think of ways to support them as they become adults.”

The growing survival success rate shows just how much potential was lost in the past when children died, he said. The surviving children will now be among the innovative leaders and the taxpayers of tomorrow, he added.

“When we provide the health care they need … we’re investing in the future,” Munter said.

“The premise and promise of CHEO is the future … working to allow that potential to blossom. So I’m excited to continue working with all organizations in Renfrew County to deliver on that promise.”

Dogs and children share reading time at the library EMC lifestyle - Dogs were the stars of the show Saturday morning at the Arnprior Public Library.

For one hour, children enjoyed a little quality time snuggling up with not just a good book, but a furry friend as well.

Ann Lambert with her Golden Retriever Chara and Chantal Hutter with Standard Poodle Jake have been participating in the program for seven years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It really is magical,â&#x20AC;?

Chantal says of the program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you put the dog in the room, the blood pressure lowers. They love you unconditionally.â&#x20AC;?

Lambert says reading with the dogs helps to build up a

childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s self-esteem as they see it as a very special time.

She says she has received much positive feedback on the program, which, when offered in schools, is referred to as therapeutic reading.

In settings such as a library, the sessions are called animalassisted activity.

Carolyn Swayze of Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and Teen Services at the Arnprior Library welcomed the dogs because they spark an interest in reading and inspire children to want to visit the library.

The canine guests were from Ottawa Therapy Dogs, which offer a unique literacy program using Reading Education Assistance Dogs to make reading relaxing, moti-

vating and fun.

The R.E.A.D. program was originally developed by Intermountain Therapy Animals in 1999 and introduced to schools and libraries in Ottawa. In was initiated in the National Capital Region by Hutter under the umbrella of Ottawa Therapy Dogs in 2004. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since then, Ottawa Therapy Dogsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; R.E.A.D. program has grown to nearly 20 volunteer dog/handler teams with rave reviews from educators, parents and kids,â&#x20AC;? says. Ottawa Therapy Dogsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; R.E.A.D. co-ordinator Julie Davies.

Library begins penny drive EMC lifestyle - For many sound reasons Canada is tossing the penny, so the Friends of the Arnprior Public Library have a suggestion: â&#x20AC;&#x153;toss them in our direction.â&#x20AC;?

Bring those underused, underappreciated, and soon-to-be-obsolete pennies into the library and fill up the special penny jug.

As the libraryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s advocacy group The Friends Group is looking toward more events such as dramatic readings, music, author visits, etc. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We guarantee every penny donated will go toward a sound system, including microphones, speakers and amplifierâ&#x20AC;? says Friends chairperson Fawn Charron. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As you know, the one-cent coin costs more than a penny to make.

Above, Chantal Hutter and Jake enjoy some special reading time with Sydney and Samantha Dougherty.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;But the ones already made should go to a good cause.â&#x20AC;?

Pennies will be accepted at the library for the project for the next three months.

The Friends will also hold a contest before rolling all the coins after Sept. 30. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be asking the public to guess the value of the penny jar before we start counting and the closest guess will win a great prize pack valued at more than $75,â&#x20AC;? adds Charron.

Federal Finance Minister, Jim Flaherty says he hopes Canadians will donate their remaining pennies to charitable causes across the country.

The Friends of the Arnprior Public Library is asking that charity begin at home in this community.

WZ students raise funds for water project John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Grade 7 and 8 students in Allison Fuiszâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s French Immersion class at Walter Zadow know the importance of water.

They also know that they can â&#x20AC;&#x153;Be the changeâ&#x20AC;? if they put their minds to it.

The students supported the Free the Children Water Project with several fundraisers including selling eco-friendly water bottles at the school, with $1 from each sale going toward the cause.

With each sale, students got their name in a draw to have their footprint painted on a ceiling tile at the school.

The effort was immortalized in an impressive water drop mural on an inner school wall that promoted awareness of the project. Tara Pocket of the Gallery Gift Shop helped students with the mural.

The students were motivated to take up the cause when they went to Montreal in March to a conference that featured the Free the Children co-founders Craig and Marc Kielburger, as well as Jesse Jackson and Martin Sheen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing what an inspirational day it was,â&#x20AC;? said Fuisz. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They came back inspired to do something here at school.â&#x20AC;?

The students, lead by Oliver Gardiner, embarked on a series of fundraisers including nickel and dime collections and water bottle sales. Walter Zadow students could also get their thumb prints

included on the mural for a minimum $2 donation and high school students were also canvassed for support.

Fuisz said the students were determined they would live up to the slogan â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Be the Changeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by creating change themselves and not leaving it up to the adults.

The students raised $750 and successfully applied to have it matched for a total donation of $1,500.

The money raised is going toward funding fresh water facilities in Haiti.

The campaign has helped the school gain enough points to become the ďŹ rst in Arnprior to earn silver EcoSchool status.

CHAMPIONS

It was one of many activities in a busy last month of school at Walter Zadow.

The schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Character Champions held a collection week for used sports equipment. Walter Zadow and A.J. Charbonneau are creating a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sports bankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the basement at WZ for families who may need equipment and cannot afford it.

Walter Zadow hosted the Bill Tyrell Memorial Track and Field meet. The meet honours Tyrell, a teacher for many years in the Arnprior family of public schools.

And Walter Zadow hosted an Olympic Day June 22 to get students in the spirit of the upcoming Summer Olympics in London.

New fund to upgrade community facilities EMC news - Community and recreational facilities are eligible for repairs and upgrades through a new federal Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund available in Ontario.

The program will allocate $49.6 million over two years in predominantly rural southern and eastern Ontario.

“Local residents asked me to bring home new funding for community projects when our very successful ‘Building Canada’ program was completed,” explained Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant.

Gallant said the Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund will boost economic activity and help support job creation across Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke.

“If any municipality has any project shovel ready, I encourage them to submit an applica-

tion as soon as possible.” The fund will support, on a cost-shared basis, repairs and improvements to existing community infrastructure accessible for use by the public. Local, regional and First Nation governments, as well as notfor-profit organizations with projects that can be completed before March 31, 2014, are invited to apply for funding.

Eligible recipients may receive contributions of up to $1 million and must leverage a minimum of 50 per cent of funding from other sources. In Ontario, priority may be given to projects that require a federal contribution of just 33.3 per cent of total project costs.

Applications for projects in Ontario must be submitted by 5 p.m. Aug. 24. For detailed program guidelines and information on how to apply, contact Gallant’s office.

EMC news – It has been a deadly weekend for some Ontario families during the Canada Day holiday.

Four people died on the roads, trails and waterways patrolled by the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP).

“Although our officers did an excellent job of enforcement over the weekend, we cannot stop the senseless deaths that in some cases might have been preventable,” said OPP Commissioner Chris Lewis.

“Increased visibility and our focus on the four key areas of aggressive driving, distracted driving, drinking and driving and seatbelts does work, but unfortunately these tragedies continue to happen.”

The OPP Aircraft Enforcement Program plays an important role to crack down on irresponsible drivers and was used all weekend to assist OPP officers on the roadways.

On OPP patrolled roads, officers laid 8,763 charges for various traffic related offences, including 5,062 speeding, 63 stunt driving, 461 seatbelt and 122 impaired driving.

On OPP patrolled waterways, officers spent 1,135 hours on the water and laid 135 Small Vessel Regulation charges. There were no marine related deaths.

On OPP patrolled trails, officers spent 144.5 hours on the trails and laid 26 charges under the Off Road Vehicle Act. There was one offroad vehicle fatality.

Karma Yoga to raise funds for animals Last year’s sessions were a great success with $720 being raised for the SPCA in Alymer.

“We sometimes had 20 people on the beach. People would kayak over, do yoga and kayak home, it was great,” said Lyons.

She noted that the benefits of Yoga are endless, from building strength, increasing confidence to creating better relationships and compassion.

Yoga on the beach increases leg and ankle strength as well as balance and proprioception.

YOGA IN THE PARK

Lyons believes it is extremely grounding to be in touch with the earth and the only sound is wind, water and birds.

“It really is serene. It brings us back to what is important in life and makes us realize first of all how lucky we are to be living where we live and how really small we are in this endless universe,” she said.

Valley Animal Rescue is a new volunteer animal rescue organization that is in need of donations as well as volunteers.

The backbone of their operation is to create a network of committed foster homes to care for, socialize and help prepare animals for adoption.

Weekly yoga classes begin on Wednesday, July 18 from 7 to 8 p.m.

From beginner to expert, everyone is welcome.

EMC lifestyle - Essencia Spa & Yoga on John Street in Arnprior is hosting ‘Karma Yoga’, a unique summer-long fundraising program to raise funds for Valley Animal Rescue.

For July and August, weekly yoga classes will take place on the beach in Robert Simpson Park.

Students can take a class for free or by donation and at the same time enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

“We began Karma Yoga last summer at our Constance Bay location,” says Tina Lyons, owner of Essencia Spa & Yoga.

# 4288 FIONA Fiona was brought to the shelter back in April, she was never claimed.

Fiona is a pretty little tabby with a wonderful disposition. She can be shy in new situations but once she warms up she is a real love bug.

Fiona is affectionate and loves to be petted and cuddled. She is good with other cats and would be best suited in a quiet home without small children.

Fiona is a wonderful cat that deserves to ďŹ nd a great new home.

Motocross Fun Day planned for McNab John Carter John.carter@metroland.com

EMC sports – A Stewartville area resident is hosting a Motocross fun Day this Saturday, July 14.

Terry Thomson is holding the event on his property near the end of Mill Ridge Road in McNab-Braeside, in what is probably a first for the township.

The event will run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and spectators are welcome.

The fun day will feature 12 classes and is mainly aimed at youth from 6 to 18,

although there is also an adult class.

Thomson explained the event is not a sanctioned race but a fun day. Anyone wanting to ride will be asked for a donation, which will all go toward prize money, he said.

Thomson said he created a motocross course for himself and friends to ride on.

However, use has expanded with neighbours asking if they and their children can use it too, he said.

So he decided to have a fun day to let everyone take a turn.

Thomson said making a motocross track takes a lot of work. He thanks Tim Flegal at Prior Tire, Clint Duff at Antrim Contracting, Brian Majaury at NAPA Auto Parts, Dave Russett Painting, Ottawa Valley Insulation, Bill Davis Welding, Cranked up Motorsports, Chris Jotham at Matco Tools, Chris Kopetoske, John Robertson at ETM and Brian Laderoute for helping making it possible.

For more information on the Motocross fun day, call Thomson at 613-6227639.

Erin McCormick led the way with six points as the Arnprior Ladies Intersectional Team played Monday at the Brockville Country Club in the B section.

Despite Arnprior’s fourth-place finish, there were several highlights including Nora Eagon’s chip-in for par from the rough on the par-4 eighth hole, two great up-and-downs for par out of the green side bunker for Ilene Lavoie and Lenora Homulos on the same eighth hole, Cheryl Burnie’s great third shot to a foot up the hill from 120 yards to make par on the 14th, and some great clutch par saves by Janice Nych and Beth Pope against some of the best players in the Ottawa area.

Next year Arnprior will compete in the C Section against Hylands, Cedarhill and Greyhawk.

A.J. students participate in their own Olympic Games Anthony Pecora Grade 7, A.J. Charbonneau

EMC sports – On Wednesday June 27, A.J Charbonneau Public School held an Olympic play day.

The Grades 1 to 6 were divided into 24 teams. Those teams represented a few of the countries in the actual London games. In the opening ceremonies, teams marched in order, holding their countries’ flags. Greece entered the gym first and Great Britain was the last team to enter.

All the students were to take an ‘Oath of Allegiance’ “In the name of all competitors, the athletes of A.J. Charbonneau Public School, I promise that we shall take part in these Olympic Games, respecting and abiding by the rules that govern them, in the true spirit of sportsmanship, for the glory of sport and the honor of our teams.”

After the teams took the Oath of Allegiance, the students sang O Canada and God Save the Queen. Once the anthems were completed, the Olympic Flame was lit.

Afterwards, Ms. McGrath cut the ribbon and the games began. There were 12 events: Canoeing, Shot Put, Fencing, Gymnastics, Swimming, Rowing, Equestrian, Relay,

A.J. Charbonneau Public School’s Olympics consisted of 12 events: canoeing, shot put, fencing, gymnastics, swimming, rowing, equestrian, relay, archery, synchronized swimming, tennis and basketball.

Archery, Synchronized Swimming, Tennis and Basketball.

The events were changed so everybody could participate.

After all the events were finished, there was a closing ceremony.

A slide show was made of all the teams playing the

games throughout the day.

There were bronze, silver and gold medals for the top three teams that showed the most: responsibility, honesty, respect, cooperation, helpfulness, encouragement, empathy, attitude, fairness and perseverance. For all of the other

teams, there were participation medals.

God Save the Queen was played, the extinguishing of the flame was done, and the games were finished.

In all, a great Olympics was accomplished and played by the students.

Catholic teachers deal ‘unacceptable’ to public educators STAFF

EMC news – It’s an agreement that has split teachers in the province.

After nearly five months of discussions, the Ontario English Catholic Teachers’ Association (OECTA) has reached a tentative agreement with the provincial government that sees them accept a two-year wage freeze and a reduction in sick day benefits.

But it also means no loss of student programs, no increases to class sizes and no teachers will lose jobs as a result of the agreement.

However, the deal, which will replace the collective agreement that expires Aug. 31, has been declared “unacceptable” by public school groups, who say they will be taking strike votes just prior to the beginning of the new

school year. “We continued discussions, even when other unions left the table, because we believed that negotiating was the best way to secure a fair and reasonable agreement for our members – and we believe we have achieved that goal,” OECTA president Kevin O’Dwyer said last week.

“This agreement mitigates the impact of the government’s original parameters, protects younger teachers from having to make larger sacrifices and achieves significant gains for our members on key non-monetary issues.” It also means Catholic schools in the province will resume classes Sept. 4, which might not be the case for the public schools.

The two-year agreement works within the government’s stated fiscal con-

straints (school boards are facing funding reductions of $2 billion as the provincial government struggles to bring its deficit under control) for the Catholic education system and has a number of alternative cost saving measures that ensure a “fair and equitable distribution of restraints across the Catholic system,” the OECTA says. Highlights of the agreement include: • a two-year wage freeze for all educators in the Catholic system, including principals; • three unpaid days in 2013-14 in the Catholic system for teachers, principals and vice-principals, ensuring that everyone, not just young teachers, share in the impact of the fiscal constraints; • partial payment of salary grid increments over the two years;

• grandparenting of retirement gratuity programs on a go-forward basis; • a revised short-term leave and disability plan that protects members who may need more than 10 days off for serious illness, chronic health problems, pregnancy or surgery; • language for a fair hiring practice; • greater recognition of teacher professionalism and their ability to direct classroom assessments that complement and inform student learning.

With 20 years experience in collective bargaining, this has been one of the most difficult negotiations I have encountered, with the most at stake for our students and our members,” said O’Dwyer.

OECTA represents 43,000

elementary and secondary teachers in 29 Catholic school boards across Ontario. Local collective agreements between school boards and local OECTA units still need to be negotiated and signed.

Finance Minister Dwight Duncan said the agreement sends a strong signal that the provincial government and its public sector partners can reach agreements “that allow Ontario to protect the gains … made in schools and health care, while staying on track to meet our fiscal targets and eliminating the deficit.”

However, leaders of the Ontario secondary and elementary school teachers’ federations and CUPE were united in calling the agreement “bad for public education in Ontario.”

Secondary teachers president Ken Coran maintained his group’s proposal that also includes a two-year wage freeze, along with modest cost-of-living salary increases in years three and four, would have saved the government millions of dollars.

He said members will discuss the issue at a meeting Aug. 16 and will be taking strike votes from Aug. 27 to Sept. 7.

R0011501035

NEW!

"This deal does not put students first, it's demoralizing for educators, and leaves an uncertain future for younger teachers," said elementary teachers president Sam Hammond. “We understand the fiscal challenges facing all Ontarians. Unfortunately the government's only solution has been to attack teachers, doctors, and others in the public sector,” he said.

Meanwhile, Ontario Medical Association president Dr. Doug Weir said the province’s refusal to bargain in good faith with doctors is disappointing when the agreement with teachers shows it can negotiate successfully with others.

“It's disappointing that the McGuinty government accepted a pay freeze for teachers, yet soundly rejected an offer from Ontario's doctors of a two-year pay freeze,” he said.

Doctors cannot stand-by while the government “plows ahead with its plan to unilaterally to cut $1 billion in health programs and services, which is going to hurt patient care and access,” he added, urging the province to come back to the negotiating table with the help of a third-party conciliator.

Care Coach: independence for those in wheelchairs Liz Wall Seniors At Home Program

EMC lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is wonderful that those like me (in a wheelchair) can get away,â&#x20AC;? said Shirley Fray.

Those are her thoughts about the Care Coach Para Transit service offered by the Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors at Home Program.

To keep the Care Coach Para Transit service available to Fray and other residents like her who require specialized transportation, Arnprior-BraesideMcNab Seniors at Homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual fundraiser campaign is now underway. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Keep the Wheels Turningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, the name of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campaign for the Care Coach, reaches out to a caring community for ďŹ nancial support to continue the vital service.

A resident of Autumn Leaves Lodge, 87 years young, Fray is the oldest of the Code sisters within a family of nine children. Born and raised in Arnprior, she shared one of her weekly trips to the Arnprior and District NeighbourLink Fountain on Mary Street in Arnprior.

Run totally by volunteers, the Foundation offers so much to those who need a friendly place to go.

Because Fray requires a wheelchair the only available transportation comes in the form of the Care Coach. For a year and a half, Para Transit driver Colin Borshevsky, has transported her in the comfort of the Care Coach. Every Tuesday and Thursday, he provides her transportation, so she is able to attend art classes while enjoying the hospitality and fellowship offered by both volunteers and visitors at the Fountain. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are blessed to have her (Fray)

come to the Fountain,â&#x20AC;? said volunteer Debbie Hudson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is such a blessing that she is able to get here.â&#x20AC;?

Fray settles in after enjoying a mufďŹ n and cup of coffee in the dining room.

Now it is time to paint. Volunteer Lynn Russett provides guidance in making the right colour decision for the background of Frayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest painting.

She ďŹ rst got interested in art when at a young age she watched her Uncle Ken (Drysdale) paint. Now not able to do the many things she once did, painting for her offers joy, a feeling of accomplishment and pride. Something she can only do as an independent person.

Without the Para Transit Transportation service of the Care Coach, she would lose this independence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am so thankful for Colin and the coach. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the space for all my artwork now, so I really look forward to every Tuesday and Thursday at the Fountain,â&#x20AC;? said Fray.

CARE COACH NEEDED

The United Way Community Matters Survey in 2005 stated there was a need in the community for Para-transit transportation. With many dedicated hours the necessary funds were raised and with a grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation the Care Coach came to be in February 2008. Now it is 2012 and it continues to offer the only Para Transit Transportation within local communities with no government funding.

Since 2008 the Care Coach has been on more than 8,000 trips locally as well as to Renfrew, Pembroke, North Bay, Fitzroy Harbor, Pakenham, Constance Bay, Almonte and Ottawa, with an aver-

age of over 200 trips per month.

The 2012 Dare to Care Campaign has been created to help realize the funds required to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Keep the Wheels Turningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

And in order to keep clients living independently, the Care Coach depends on you and your ďŹ nancial donation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s generosity that is necessary to make sure this essential service remains active and viable in our community,â&#x20AC;? said Seniors at Home executive director Dennis Harrington.

Since the last report, every household within Arnprior, McNab-Braeside (including Burnstown and White Lake), Fitzroy Harbour, Woodlawn and Kinburn have received a letter requesting ďŹ nancial support for the Care Coach. Please take time to return a donation using the bright yellow return-envelope provided. Mail or drop off at the ofďŹ ce at 106 McGonigal St. West, Arnprior, Ont. K7S 1M4.

Please make cheques payable to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ABM Seniors at Homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Visa and Master Card are accepted by calling 613-622-CARE (2273) between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.

Monday to Friday.

If by chance, your household did not receive our letter, Seniors at Home would greatly appreciate ďŹ nancial help towards the Care Coach campaign. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait until you or a loved one loses their independence. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Keep the Wheels Turningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by making your donation today.

Easy ways to give fresh fruit flavour appeal EMC lifestyle - We all enjoy one of the biggest benefits of summer – the availability of a wide variety of seasonal fresh fruit.

Fruit can be served as a snack, an appetizer, a salad or a dessert. It’s generally quick and easy to prepare and can be served at any time of the day.

While we often eat fresh fruit just as is, sometimes a few extras can give it a whole new flavour. Here are some suggestions to try.

With some, I’ve given only approximate amounts, so vary them to your taste.

WATERMELON WITH FRESH MINT AND FETA

1/4 red seedless watermelon, cubed 3-4 fresh mint leaves, minced 2-3 tbsp. crumbled feta cheese This has to be tasted to believe, the flavour is amazing.

In a serving bowl, gently toss the watermelon cubes with the mint. Top with the feta cheese. Serve as an appetizer or salad.

Serves two to four.

Honeyed cantaloupe with blueberries 1 tbsp. fresh lemon juice

Food ‘n Stuff PAT TREW

2 tbsp. liquid honey a pinch of cinnamon 1 cup fresh blueberries 3 cups cantaloupe melon, cubed in bite-sized pieces, then measured In a small bowl, whisk the lemon juice, honey and cinnamon together.

Place the blueberries and cantaloupe cubes in a serving bowl, and toss gently with the dressing. Serve as a dessert.

Serves four.

You can substitute fresh raspberries for the blueberries for variety.

BLUEBERRIES WITH ORANGE SHERBET

1 litre orange sherbet 1-2 cups fresh blueberries This is quick and easy to prepare and makes a refreshing dessert on a hot summer night.

When you’re ready to serve

dessert, scoop the sherbet into individual serving bowls.

Scatter fresh blueberries over the sherbet.

Serves four.

STRAWBERRIES WITH SOUR CREAM AND BROWN SUGAR

3 cups fresh strawberries 1/2 cup sour cream (reduced fat) or plain yogurt 4 tbsp. brown sugar For this recipe, you can use either light sour cream or plain yogurt.

Wash and pit the berries.

Serves four.

New fundraising policies created for Ontario schools Jessica Cunha

fundraising policy to match the new guidelines, said Walter Piovesan, the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s associate director of education.

He added the new policy would be available by the end of June or the beginning of September for consultation. It will be up to the principal of each school to ensure fundraising is conducted within the new rules. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the principal who enforces the policy and works with the school councils or whoever is doing the fundraising to make sure the policy is being followed,â&#x20AC;? Piovesan said.

The Ottawa Catholic School Board is already â&#x20AC;&#x153;mostly compliantâ&#x20AC;? with the new ministry guidelines said spokesperson

jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Ontario school boards are implementing new policies on fundraising as this school year ends, under a requirement that they incorporate the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new â&#x20AC;&#x153;best practicesâ&#x20AC;? by September.

The issue came to wide public attention with the publication of Fundraising Fever, a Metroland Special Report, which focused on growing concern about the overuse of fundraising and the disparities it creates.

PROBLEMS

Annie Kidder of People for Education, a parent-led advocacy group, says the reaction her group is getting to Fundraising Fever underscores the problems that fundraising creates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So many people have forwarded it and talked about it as a never-ending issue,â&#x20AC;? Kidder said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think the fundraising guidelines are strong enough.â&#x20AC;?

The guidelines say fundraising should not duplicate existing funding â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for example the ministry provides schools with money for textbooks and learning materials so raising funds to buy more is not permitted.

Kidder says the key to equitable education is to make sure itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funded so everyone gets a good education; one that does not depend on fundraising. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The problem with thinking of education as a charity rather than as something we pay for through our taxes is that it changes how we think. It entrenches fundraising as something we assume has to be there.â&#x20AC;?

Kidder says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;all fundraising isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bad, but there has to be a line.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the system has come to assume that where possible, parents will kind of take up the slack, or that parents will augment school budgets. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a really worrying assumption.â&#x20AC;?

TOLL-FREE 1-877-605-4473

EMC business â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Higher Ground Tutoring Services is launching a summer enrichment Program in Arnprior aimed at helping students retain and build on the knowledge they gained during the school year.

The program combines traditional instruction in English language arts, math and science using the multiple intelligences method. This allows children in Grades 1 through 8 â&#x20AC;&#x153;to improve on what they already know and promotes new ways of learning based on their natural strengths.â&#x20AC;?

The company says that having a fun but structured learning program for kids over the summer may prevent a phenomenon known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;summer learning loss,â&#x20AC;? which can occur in children after an extended hiatus from school such as summer vacation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Studies have shown that there is a high probability for loss of academic skills and knowledge in students over summer vacation,â&#x20AC;? said company director and founder Sally Rogers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our objective is to help students maximize on what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned during the school year by offering individual support to improve on trouble areas and expand on academic strengths.â&#x20AC;?

While summer camp and sports activities are an important and fun way for kids to stay active during the summer, continued learning is equally as valuable, says Rogers, who has been a teacher for 10 years.

She notes social interaction and teamwork are encouraged in a small group setting of the summer program, so students will gain new friends.

The classes begin July 16. More information is available at www.highergroundtutoringservices.ca.

Hunting charges result in fines EMC news – Three Renfrew County men has been fined for a variety of hunting-related charges.

An Eganville man received a $1,000 fine and a seven-year hunting licence suspension for deer hunting offences. Matthew Schoenfeldt pleaded guilty to using a set shotgun to hunt whitetail deer and hunting whitetail deer during the closed season.

A court order was issued restricting Schoenfeldt from engaging in any hunting activities, being party to any hunting activity for which he would require a hunting licence, or associating with anyone participating in any licenced hunting activity for seven years. Schoenfeldt also pleaded guilty May 15 to criminal charges relating to the matter.

Court heard that on Dec. 24, 2011, a local hunter was out scouting an area to hunt on Crown land in Wilberforce Township when he came across a set shotgun. He immediately called a conservation officer as he was concerned the danger the set gun posed.

The officer conducted an investigation and the set shotgun and related items were seized.

Upon discovering that the shotgun had been removed, Schoenfeldt contacted the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) and reported it had been stolen in a break-and-enter on Christmas morning. This initiated a joint investigation by the Ministry of Natural Resources and OPP that concluded during the day of Christmas Eve Schoenfeldt set on Crown land a shotgun, which was attached to a trip line designed to discharge the shotgun when triggered by a deer.

When he discovered his shotgun was missing, he falsely reported it stolen to the OPP. MOOSE, FISH CHARGES

A Chalk River man has pleaded guilty to illegal moose hunting and possession of an overlimit of fish and has been fined $6,500.

The fines include $2,000 for unlawfully

hunting moose during the closed season, $2,000 for allowing the meat of a moose to spoil, and $2,500 for having a large over-limit of bass.

In addition, a ban on hunting and fishing in Ontario for a period of two years was imposed by the court.

Pembroke District Conservation Officers conducted an investigation into the illegal killing of a bull moose in September 2011. During the search for the moose meat, the officers found a stash of 48 bass over the legal limit. It was also determined that half of the moose had been allowed to spoil.

HUNTING LICENCE NO-NO

A Pembroke resident has been fined $3,100 for unlawfully obtaining Ontario resident hunting licences while he was living in Chapeau, Quebec.

Matthew Boisclair pleaded guilty to seven counts under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act, which included unlawfully obtaining resident hunting licences for deer, moose and wild turkey, and for making a false statement on a form to obtain the licences.

The court heard that after Boisclair moved to Quebec many years ago, he continued to apply for and receive his Ontario Hunting Outdoors Card and other Ontario resident hunting licences. He has since moved back to Ontario.

Justice of the Peace Barry Moran heard the all three cases in Pembroke on June 18.

The MNR reminds people that the Outdoors Card Centre must be notified of any change in address or residency within 10 days. Individuals must live in Ontario for a period of six consecutive months to be considered a resident of Ontario.

To report a natural resources violation, call 1-877-TIPS-MNR (847-7667) toll-free any time or contact the local ministry office during regular business hours. You can also call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222TIPS (8477).

July 10, 1992 In loving memory of a dear son and brother Robbie who we lost 20 years ago today.

July 8, 2002

Deep in our hearts there’s a picture, More precious than silver or gold, Tis a picture of a dear son and brother, Whose memory will never grow old.

Thinking of you often.

Dad, Donna, Stephanie and Stacey.

CAMPBELL, Harriet In memory of a heroic sister who lost her hard fought battle with leukemia 5 years ago.

We little knew that morning, That God was going to call your name, In life we loved you dearly, And in Heaven we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you, But you didn’t go alone, for part of us went with you, The day God called you home. you left us loving and peaceful memories, Your love is still our guide, and though we cannot see you, you are always by our side.

Our family chain is broken, And nothing seems the same, But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again.

Love Forever, Bill and Family

Our lives go on without you But nothing is the same.

We have to hide our heartache When someone speaks your name.

Sad are the hearts that love you, Silent the tears that fall.

Living without you is The hardest part of all.

You did so many things for us.

Your heart was so kind and true, And when we needed someone, We could always count on you.

The special years will not return When we are all together, But with the love in our hearts You walk with us forever.

If flowers grow in Heaven Lord, then pick a bunch for me, Place them in my Momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arms, And tell her theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re from me.

Tell her that I love and miss her, And when she turns to smile, Place a kiss upon her cheek, And hold her for awhile.

Forever in our hearts, Elaine, Jimmy and Family JILL TURPIN You gave us many things in life, Gifts both great and small, but most of all you gave us love, The greatest gift of all.

It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t what we write, It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t what we say, Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how we feel deep inside, As we think of you today.

We will always remember the way you smiled, The things you used to say, And all the things you did for us, In your kind and loving way.

We hold you close within our hearts, And there you will remain, To walk with us throughout our lives, Until we meet again.

Remembered always, Mom & Wade KWIATKOWSKI, Ted In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grandfather Ted, who passed away July 16, 1996.

God took him home, it was His will, But in our hearts we love him still; His memory is as dear today, As in the hour he passed away.

We often sit and think of him, When we are all alone, For memory is the only friend, That grief can call its own.

Sadly missed by, Lynn, Donna, Rick, Jim & Families.

Little did we know that morning God was going to call your name.

In life we loved you dearly, In death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone.

For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide.

And though we cannot see you, you are always by our side.

Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same.

But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Capital Hoedown festival cancelled

Organizer cites high costs, permit problems Jessica Cunha jessica.cunha@metroland.com

EMC news - Capital Hoedown 2012 has been cancelled.

Denis Benoit, president and CEO of Concert International Inc., which was hosting the festival, sent an email statement on Monday, July 9, outlining the reasons for the decision.

“Higher than expected costs from the city, upfront production expenditures and lower than anticipated ticket sales were all factors,” said Benoit.

“Combined with the high media attention and the city’s denial for a new event permit, it created a confidence issue among our ticket buyers and supporters.

“We were left but no choice but to cancel this year’s event.”

In the email Benoit said he refused to be interviewed because he is suing some media organizations.

“Based on the volume of lawsuits being filed against numerous local media and individuals for untrue, defamatory and injurious statements towards the festival, I will not be doing media interviews until everything has been settled,” said Benoit.

He did not specify which organizations he was planning to sue.

ISSUES, PROBLEMS

The event, which was scheduled to run from

Aug. 10 to 12, has been plagued with troubles.

The city pulled the festival’s three-day special event licence after Capital Hoedown failed to pay $150,000 still owing for use of the property at Walter Baker Park in Kanata.

Several big-name acts, including Sheryl Crow, Terri Clark and Reba McIntire, had pulled out of the festival by June 1.

Capital Hoedown then moved the event location to the Numech Ranch, a private venue on rural land located at 6930 Fallowfield Rd., south of Stittsville.

The city refused to give the event a permit for the Stittsville site.

In mid-June, the city was forced to forward the festival’s $72,000 deposit money it had received for the use of Walter Baker Park to the Canada Revenue Agency, “to address outstanding issues,” said Coun. Mark Taylor.

REFUNDS

Ticket buyers are eligible for a full credit card refund, said Benoit.

“There is no need to contact the ticket office.

If you do not see the refund on your statement within one-week, we ask that you contact your credit card company.”

Concert International will start planning for Capital Hoedown 2013 after “addressing all the logistics of the cancellation.”

We are still looking for organizations who

are interested in putting their information onto our new ‘High school Volunteer Page’ in the Arnprior Life magazine.

This will be a go-to place for high school students looking to complete their 40 hours of community service that they need to graduate.

Please email kmenkhorst@arnprior.ca before Friday, July 13 to ensure that your information goes into the Arnprior Life for the fall.

Carp Farmers’ Market to celebrate 23rd season EMC events - This Saturday, July 14, the Carp Farmers Market will mark an event which, 23 years ago, was just a dream come true for market founder Hildegarde Anderson.

Formal festivities will kick off at 9.45 a.m. when market president Bob Dobson will introduce visiting dignitaries, who will cut the birthday cake. Today, when the trend is increasingly toward buying fresh and buying local, it may be difficult to remember that 23 years ago, the farmers’ market was a comparatively novel idea.

Anderson started the market based on a

membership drawn from local producers who had to be juried in to ensure their product met high standards for quality and freshness.

“We owe a lot to our very loyal following,” says Dobson. “There are people who have been shopping here since we first started and with the years that number has grown – along with the numbers of our vendors.”

One thing will never change “and that’s our commitment to high quality, local produce and crafts.”

The market is open from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. with plenty of free parking.

EMC events - Would you enjoy a garden tour?

You have an opportunity to do so Saturday, July 21 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. rain or shine.

Participants in the Glasgow United Church sponsored tour will have the privilege of visiting seven gardens in the White Lake, Burnstown, Braeside and Arnprior area.

At the home of Sandy and Steve Hanson, where the garden is set along a coniferous forest, you will see more than 700 varieties of perennials and 500 varieties of hostas as well as several theme gardens.

At Peter and Mary Stanton’s home, you will find unusual plants and a garden reminiscent of a formal country courtyard. In a separate area there is a ‘Grannies Garden’.

On the tour is the garden belonging to artists Valerie Roos Webster and John Webster. It has a plantation of 40-foot red pine trees, a shade garden, a small gold fish pond and an area for sun-loving plants.

At the Carver’s Garden, you will see how Dub and Frankie Juby’s hard work has transformed a hayfield.

There are perennials, vegetables and grapes, as well as the beautiful carvings in Dub’s workshop.

The home of Robyn and Robert Lamont has a pond, beautiful waterfall, and variety of low maintenance hardy perennials.

Roger and Jill Danby’s garden is unique as it is surrounded on three sides by the Madawaska River. Sun and shade beds, mature trees, natural rock and steps leading to the river await your visit.

At the home of Keith and Lillian Collins, situated in a mixed forest,
