New candidates enliven municipal election races Sherry Haaima, John Carter

Sherry.haaima@metroland.com

News - With the deadline for nominations to run in the Oct. 27 municipal elections just over two weeks away (Sept. 12 at 2 p.m.), the entry of three new candidates has added interest in the contests. The filing of former Cumberland councillor Frank Dugal to run for a counciller position in the Town of Arnprior (see Page 4) has ensured there will be an election. He is the sixth candidate to run for five councillor positions. The big question now is whether anyone will run against incumbent mayor David Reid and incumbent reeve Walter Stack. In McNab-Braeside, a race for councillor is almost assured with the entry of two new candidates. Scott Brum made his intention to run official on July 28, while Glasgowarea Lou Laventure filed his papers to run for councillor Aug. 12. They join Heather Lang, who filed May 27. With incumbent councillor Bob Campbell and at least one other resident also expected to run, it appears there will be a healthy race for the three positions. There are already competitive contests for the positions of mayor and deputy mayor. Mayor Mary Campbell, Coun. Aldene Styles and Tom Peckett have so far filed papers to run for mayor. Deputy Mayor Christine Blimkie, who is expected to seek her seat again, will be up against

Former Cumberland councillor eyes Arnprior council position

Braeside Home Furnishings

there will be a municipal election in Arnprior Oct. 27. Dugal is the sixth candidate for five councillor positions, so there will be a race and not a simple acclaimation. If all current members run and get elected, that leaves the opening vacated by Mark Wilmer – the long-time member who now lives near Barry’s Bay – as the sole spot for either Dugal or Doug Smith (provided no others file to run). Dugal didn’t comment on Smith, but while the topic was raised said, “there’s a vacancy and I think I bring a voice of reason to the table,� suggesting that he has more experience than the three first-time councillors running again: Lyle Anderson, Dan Lynch and Lynn Grinstead. Also running for a councillor position is incumbent Ted Strike, Reeve Walter Stack, and Mayor David Reid. The last day to sign up is Sept. 12 at 2 p.m.

Comedian Steve Patterson is the host of the new HGTV Canada series I Wrecked My House. Producers are looking for home repair gone awry in Ottawa Valley and West Carleton.

R0012842592

News – Have you inadvertently wrecked your house in the pursuit of home renovation? HGTV Canada and Mountain Road Productions would like to hear from you. “Are you or someone you know more like MacGyver than Mike Holmes?� asks Merrill O’Malley, casting assistant for Mountain Road Productions. “We’re casting Ontario-wide to uncover the strangest wackiest, most extreme solutions to home repairs ever seen and would love to film in the Ottawa Valley and West Carleton. We are looking to tour your town for the best of the worst jerry-rigged fixes, and highlighting one homeowner who will receive a major home renovation.� A casting call has gone out to the Ottawa Valley and West Carleton for un-handy homeowners with an eccentric, unconventional approach to home repairs. “The best of the worst will be featured in the new HGTV Canada series I Wrecked My House, hosted by comedian Steve Patterson,� said O’Malley. “We want people who are fun, don’t take themselves too seriously and are willing to be put on the spot a bit. The more of a character they are, the better.� And, of course, being subjected to the rib-

bing won’t come without reward – by participating in the show, homeowners will have a chance to receive a major home renovation for free. A one-hour I Wrecked My House acrossCanada special aired in April and all indications are there are plenty of stories out there of home repair gone awry. Whether it’s repairing a leak with a diaper, using roofing shingles to tile a floor or using a beer can for a shower head – producers want to hear more about kooky and bizarre approaches to home repair. The series will feature individuals from across the province. Homeowners across the Valley and west Ottawa, from Arnprior to Renfrew to Fitzroy Harbour and Carp are asked to nominate themselves or a willing homeowner. Submissions and nominations can be emailed to casting@mountainroad.ca with the following information: the story behind the questionable home repairs; photos of each of the eccentric repairs; a photo of you and a photo of the not-so-handy person being nominated; and contact information. “I Wrecked My House will consist of 14 episodes,� said O’Malley. “Each episode will focus on one area.� Production is expected to start in October, depending on casting. “If all goes well the show will start airing in spring,� said O’Malley.

A nuisance animal charge will cost $50-100 plus mileage, with a deposit of $100. Council also approved the purchase of two live traps that can be rented out to ratepayers. Rather than have animal control come out to deal with an issue, individuals can provide a $25 deposit and borrow the traps. They will receive their deposit back upon return of the traps. Loaning out traps a practice that was in place in the past in the township and may be a more cost effective way for the public to deal with nuisance animals.

News – It will cost thousands of dollars more, but it’s the truck ďŹ reďŹ ghters want and their fundraising efforts will cover the difference. Hence Arnprior council approved the $349,000 purchase at Monday’s regular meeting. And, to cap it off, local ďŹ rm Arnprior Fire Trucks Corp. won the contract, coming in with the lowest tender. Last year council approved spending $280,000 for a ďŹ re pumper apparatus on a chassis, meaning the cab and all wheels connected, minus the carriage. At the time it was believed a commercial truck could be gotten for that price. But, according to Chief John Okum, three factors over the last year contributed to driving up the price: the faltering Loonie, rising standards, and high demand in the ďŹ re truck industry. Even with the higher costs, the commercial type didn’t meet town needs. It was the purpose-built Spartan type the volunteer ďŹ reďŹ ghters said would perform best. So

much so they are willing to put $65,000 toward the cost. Many municipalities use Spartan, which offers greater safety more room inside the cab and the tightest control and most maneuverability on the market, Okum said. The Arnprior Fire Truck bid was lower than the two Toronto area companies that offered either no bid on the Spartan or could do it for an additional $90,000. Both also offered less on the trade in. (The 1992 pumper will net $10,000.) They also fell below Arnprior Fire Truck’s warranties, in one case by seven years. It also offered added value in the form

OPINION

EDITORIAL

Idling no longer The idle days of August has brought the issue of idling to the fore. At least that’s the case in Arnprior. Town council has approved a new idling policy restricting the amount of time drivers can leave their municipal vehicles idling. Gasoline vehicles must be shut off whenever idling time is expected to exceed one minute. Diesel vehicles get a three-minute limit. As well, vehicles must never be left unattended when idling. However, idle times for initial warm-up are allowed up to five minutes. The policy stems from the occasional complaints the town receives, mainly in winter, from irate citizens upset when they see town vehicles left idling. Not only does the practice waste taxpayer money, it spews exhaust fumes into the atmosphere. In that vein, the new policy isn’t only motivated by citizen complaints. Similar to the current transitioning to LED lights, the town obviously likes to publicize changes that save money (estimated as close to $1,000 a year) and are environmentally friendly. As it says in the preamble to the policy change: “the Town of Arnprior is an environmentally conscious corporation that is committed to operating its business as efficiently as possible.� Seems straight-forward enough. However, as evident by discussion over the policy at the council meeting, things aren’t quite as simple as they often seem. While it appears that concerns turning vehicles on and off frequently actually waste more gas than leaving them running and are hard on parts such as starters are mostly a myth, there are a couple of important issues to consider when setting idling time limits. It’s not quite the same turning heavy equipment on and off as it is for your family car. As well, there are the complicated computer run components in The Arnprior Chronicle-Guide welcomes letters to the editor. Email letters to theresa.fritz@metroland.com/.

modern equipment to consider. Coun. Ted Strike raised an issue about equipment needing time to reset itself. It’s a technical thing, obviously, that most lay people don’t understand. However, if the former long-time public works director says that it needs to be factored in to the equation, who are we to disagree. The Labour Act is another factor that can’t be ignored. When Mayor David Reid questioned some of the suggested time and temperature limits, town CAO Michael Wildman was clear that council shouldn’t go there. The recommended limits were set in conjunction with Minister of Labour requirements in mind, he noted. The ministry is clear regarding employee safety, health and comfort, he said. It’s not likely to countenance any limits that would have workers freezing in winter or sweltering in summer. Sometimes idling is needed to ensure a vehicle’s heating or air conditioning systems are on, making it bearable for the operator. With that in mind, the new town idling policy is not in force when the temperature rises about 27 degrees Celsius or falls below five degrees Celsius. Another issue raised was that of enforcement. Council was told that supervisors would be educating employees on the new policy. They will be vigilant in following up to see that it is being followed. But it was made clear that the public also has a role in reporting violations if they see them. So folks, if you see a town employee over-idling you have a specific policy to refer to when complaining to town hall. But remember, there are exceptions to every rule. So report blatant abuses. But realize there could be some defendable reasons why the operator has the vehicle idling.

Let’s have an Arnprior-Braeside walking trail To the Editor: Wouldn’t it be nice if the Township of McNabBraeside, the Town of Arnprior and some local businesses in the area could partner together and provide our community with a safe walking trail on the site between Braeside and Arnprior. I am talking about the area where the trains used to pass through (between Division Street and River Road). This would be a way of saying “Thank You� to the taxpayers. What a safe haven for the people who like to

stroll, bike and jog away from the busy traffic. What a peaceful place this could be for any age group to enjoy. Crushed stone would be nice, but, of course, pavement would be ideal. Surely this project could be given some consideration in the near future. Come on McNab-Braeside, Arnprior and some local businesses, give back to your community.

When it comes to sharing, nature wrote the book MICHAEL RUNTZ Nature’s Way But due to Nature’s ingenuity, this does not happen. Instead of all species having an identical bill for plucking invertebrates out of mud, bills come in a diversity of shapes and sizes. Some, like those of plovers, are short and stout for snatching prey from the mud’s surface. Others are designed for probing to a specific depth into mud. Those of Least Sandpipers go down about a centimetre. White-rumped Sandpiper bills likely reach double that depth. With their longer legs, these sandpipers wade into shallow water to extract prey before they descend more deeply into their burrows when the receding tide pulls back the blanket of water.

Lifestyle - When I was conducting shorebird surveys on the west coast of James Bay, I daily witnessed examples of how Nature exploits each and every opportunity. Where great winds expanded the water’s reach inland lay long ridges of sand and pebbles. On these elevated sites grew low-growing plants with thick rubbery leaves. These were halophytes, plants able to tolerate salt water blown by the wind. Behind them grew belts of towering American Lyme Grass. These formed a windbreak behind which smaller, salt-intolerant plants thrived. But it was on the endless mudflats where the best example was seen. At the edge of the water, which like a living creature crept in and out twice a day, fed hordes of shorebirds. These animated birds ate constantly, fattening up in preparation for their long journey to South America. Now, one would think that if a dozen species fed together on the very same kind of food, the competition would be intense. Perhaps so much so that many birds would fail to put on sufficient fat to make the trip successfully.

Community Living South workers join OPSEU Shawarma Shoppe News – The almost 100 workers at Community Living Renfrew County South in Arnprior and Renfrew have voted to join the Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU). The yes vote on Aug. 18 means the 96 new members join Community Living workers in the Upper Ottawa Valley and Barry’s Bay as unionized. The 92 Pembroke area Community Living employees voted to join the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) in August 2011 and the Barry’s Bay workers have been OPSEU members for even longer. It took over two years, until last October, for CUPE and Community Living Upper Ottawa Valley to work out a ďŹ rst contact for the workers in the Pembroke

area. The 96 newest OPSEU members in the south end of Renfrew County will be part of the union’s developmental services sector of more than 10,000 members. Developmental services locals across the province are currently bargaining for new contracts. “I’m proud of the choice these workers have made by joining OPSEU,� said president Warren (Smokey) Thomas in a news release. “The members who work at Community Living Renfrew County South know that our developmental services units across the province are in bargaining. Our goal will be to negotiate for these new members the best possible improvements in their workplace.

“By electing to join OPSEU, they know they’ve taken a big step in the right direction.â€? Patti Markland, chair of the union’s developmental services sector, also welcomed the Renfrew County Community Living South (CLRCS) workers to OPSEU. “On behalf of the sector executive, I wish to congratulate everyone at CLRCS,â€? she said. “The hard work demonstrated by this organizing drive has paid off. I look forward to working with all of you.â€? Workers at CLRCS provide support to individuals with one or more intellectual disabilities out of ofďŹ ces in Arnprior and Renfrew.

Township of Lanark Highlands adds materials to blue box recycling program and expands waste management promotions for residents. The Township of Lanark Highlands is making it easier for residents to identify what materials can be recycled. Residents can decrease their waste management costs by separating materials for recycling, especially at waste disposal sites where tipping fees are charged only on those materials going to landďŹ ll. When the Township held a focus group last fall to get residents’ feedback on waste management, one of the main requests was for better promotional information about waste diversion, including better signage at the waste sites. The promotional campaign includes: UĂŠ ĂŠÂ˜iĂœĂŠ7 -/ ĂŠ // ,-ĂŠLĂ€>˜`ĂŠ>˜`ĂŠÂ˜iĂœĂƒÂ?iĂŒĂŒiĂ€°ĂŠ,iĂƒÂˆ`iÂ˜ĂŒĂƒĂŠĂœÂˆÂ?Â?ĂŠ receive the ďŹ rst newsletter by mail this month or as a hand-out at their local waste disposal site; UĂŠ iĂœĂŠĂƒÂˆ}˜>}iĂŠ>ĂŒĂŠĂŒÂ…iĂŠĂœ>ĂƒĂŒiĂŠĂƒÂˆĂŒiĂƒĂŠ`iĂŒ>ˆÂ?ˆ˜}ĂŠĂœÂ…>ĂŒĂŠÂ“>ĂŒiĂ€Âˆ>Â?ĂƒĂŠ>Ă€iĂŠ accepted at the waste sites & how to separate materials for recycling; UĂŠ Â˜ĂŠÂˆÂ˜VĂ€i>ĂƒiĂŠÂˆÂ˜ĂŠÂŤĂ€ÂˆÂ˜ĂŒĂŠ>`ĂƒĂŠÂˆÂ˜ĂŠÂ?ÂœV>Â?ĂŠÂ˜iĂœĂƒÂŤ>ÂŤiĂ€ĂƒĂŠĂ€iĂƒĂ•Â?ĂŒÂˆÂ˜}ĂŠvĂ€ÂœÂ“ĂŠ the pooling of in-kind advertising resources with neighboring municipalities; UĂŠ Â˜Â˜Ă•>Â?ĂŠĂ€iÂŤÂœĂ€ĂŒÂˆÂ˜}ĂŠĂŒÂœĂŠ ÂœĂ•Â˜VˆÂ?ĂŠ>˜`ĂŠĂŒÂ…iĂŠVÂœÂ“Â“Ă•Â˜ÂˆĂŒĂžĂŠÂœÂ˜ĂŠÂŤĂ€Âœ}Ă€iĂƒĂƒĂŠ made toward achievement of the township’s waste diversion goals.

A new transfer station in Beckwith Township serves as a collection point for area recyclables. Revenues from the sale of recyclable material helps off-set waste management expenses and are an important source of revenue for the municipality.

News – Critics of the Arnprior Fair should come on board and help make the event better, says Arnprior Agricultural Society president Jeff Desarmia. Desarmia said he is frustrated by those who criticize the fair, yet don’t step forward to assist the volunteers who work so hard to make it possible each year. After a couple of years of building momentum for the fair, the efforts to keep building on past improvements took a hit this year when Billy G Amusements dropped out at the last minute, leaving the fair board struggling to find a midway. Arnprior wasn’t the only fair left in the lurch by the company, who left several Eastern Ontario fairs without their midways. Desarmia said the people who criticized the Arnprior Fair for its midway this year should realize he spent days trying to find a replacement. “I lived on the phone … it wasn’t for lack of trying,” he said. “So

the criticism that we were somehow at fault was very discouraging.” Crown Amusements were good enough to provide some midway rides and booths, but most of their major rides were already committed elsewhere, he noted. Fair officials tried to fill in the gaps with inflatables. “We’re not Wonderland,” said Desarmia. “There’s a lot of competition out there.” Despite the sometimes “disheartening” criticism on social media focused on the midway, there were several positives to this year’s fair, Desarmia said. For one, the weather was sunny and warm and there wasn’t the usual Saturday rainfall. The fair’s two demolition derbies both attracted large, enthusiastic crowds, Desarmia reported. He noted that local film-maker producer David Ridgen is doing a documentary on demolition derbies and Arnprior’s was the first one where he shot footage. See COUNTRY, Page 13

Fair directors were also generally pleased with the response to the featured entertainers, particularly the country music singers. Doc Walker pulled in a decent crowd on Thursday and Rudy and Saddle Up proved to be a great party band after the demolition derby Saturday, Desarmia said. Local audiences got to see Doc Walker for $10 (not $15 as had been considered), he said, noting that tickets to the singer’s concert in the Toronto area had cost $37.50. “It was a deal at $10 ‌ so I thought we pull in at least 1,000,â€? he said. The audiences for rockers Harlequin Friday and Canadian legend Ronnie Prophet Sunday were disappointing, but those who attended seemed to have a great time, he added. See FAIR, Page 14

Fair increasing focus on agriculture Continued from Page 13

Desarmia noted that Sunday is always a difficult draw for the fair because so many people go to the cottage this time of year, especially on a sunny weekend. The team penning competition, while not drawing big crowds, attracted competitors from all over the province, he said. While it was great to see more than 100 horses at the fairgrounds, it is a reminder how big a draw horse racing would be if the provincial government was more accommodating, he added. The fair is slowly putting more focus on its agricultural roots, with Belgium teams on show

and a few 4-H competitions. If the fair is successful in receiving grants, it will be bringing back the livestock shows, Desarmia said. The fair received praise from a group of special needs residents who were given a special time at the event Friday. They noted that the fair volunteers and Crown Amusements staff were helpful and respectful during their visit. The many high school students earning credit for their volunteer hours by working the fair were also applauded. They ran the ticket booths and many of the fair activities, playing a major role in ensuring the event’s success.

Popular country music sensation Jordan McIntosh of Carleton Place will be on stage Friday, Sept. 5 at 8 p.m. McIntosh is fresh off the releasing of his latest single, Grew Up in a Country Song, on June 10, 2013. “It’s about Carleton Place,� the 18-year-old said of the hit. “It’s about where I grew up, and this makes it even more special.

HAVING FUN

KIM MITCHELL eclectic Max Webster, a band who in the late 1970s defined alternative and independent long before the words became clichés.

Mitchell is quick to point out, it’s not about looking at a wall of photos and awards, but what he can do, and enjoy, today. He noted, while the Max Webster days were good, the main highlights of his career followed. “I actually became more successful after the Max Webster days,” he said. “That was not the way I planned it.” Mitchell has maintained a busy touring schedule. “I played a lot in the summer over the past five years, and a lot last winter. But I’ve taken some time off this summer.”

Darling residents gather for centre’s opening Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

News – The community of Darling-White Lake has finally celebrated the grand opening of its community centre, a project almost 20 years in the making. A $238,000 four-season structure, complete with kitchen and washrooms, the community centre welcomed some 80 people on Saturday, Aug. 23 for the ribbon-cutting. Too few parking spots, too few chairs inside and the inevitable expansion jokes elicited plenty of laughter from residents and community leaders. “For the first ever event in this facility I’m really excited to have all of you here,” said Al Jones, board member of the Darling-White Lake Property Owners Association. He told the packed house at the centre - near Cedar Cove Resort about seven kilometres south of the village of White Lake - that plenty of donations by busi-

countless flea markets, book drives, barbecues and more. “That’s a lot of bake goods,” Jones said, adding that a village wall of fame to

celebrate community volunteers will be housed inside. Lanark Highlands Mayor Peter McLaren talked about Darling opting to join Lanark

Highlands over Pakenham back in the day, and how pleased he was it did. Then he mentioned the difficulties of building in the wooded area on Peneshula Road. “This was a very challenging site to develop, with the septic and everything else,” McLaren said. “But it was very well thought out. The whole process undertaken – everyone should be proud.” The idea is to begin offering activities and services to the community of 177 fulltime residents (it swells to about 300 in summer at this cottage country getaway). Among the aims is to introduce a euchre club, yoga for seniors, zumba, foot care, reflexology, coffeehouse gatherings, book club, library, plant exchange, movie night, teens teaching seniors about technology, knitting group, workshops on chainsaw safety and other practical matters. Following the ribbon-cutting, the association’s annual general meeting took place.

R0012859379

Starting from the Low $200’s!

Local talent celebrated, quarry fight money raised Lifestyle - As the name of the event promised, Aug. 13 was indeed ‘A Noteworthy Night’. Community residents gathered at the Arnprior Golf Club to enjoy a night of informal entertainment. The funds raised will be used to hire scientiďŹ c experts to study and report on the “threatsâ€? of proposed heavy industrialization of the Braeside Quarry by the Miller Group, including a permanent asphalt plant at the McNab-Braeside location. Event organizers were quick to stress that they are not anti-quarry or anti-business, citing the fact that many of them run businesses in the community. Organizers note that for years the community enjoyed an excellent relationship with Miller’s predecessors at the quarry, the Smiths. See QUARRY, Page 23

Medical marijuana firm eyes Renfrew as possible home Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News - A new company that is doing research and development of cannabis-based medical products is considering putting down roots in Renfrew. GreenCross Bioceuticals Canada has a mandate to produce, license and market products that can be used to treat such “legitimate medical conditions” as cancer, epilepsy, wasting diseases and Alzheimer’s. “If things work out as I hope, I’d like to be up and running by December (2014),” the company’s president and chief executive officer Jordan Powell has told Renfrew council. Powell grew up in Renfrew and attended

Broadband Continued from Page 24

Other speakers on hand for the Aug. 22 announcement were local MPP John Yakabuski;

Renfrew Collegiate Institute before leaving in 1992 to play junior football with the national champion Ottawa Sooners. Powell went on to own his own security firm in Toronto that did intelligence and military-related work with NATO and other international organizations. He returned to the Upper Ottawa Valley in 2004 to work as a manager for the TeleTech call centre until it closed its Renfrew office. Powell’s GreenCross Bioceuticals is looking at buying the property at 555 Hall Ave., the former home of TransWorld Signs and OVG. Powell says the company’s only other staff is an Ottawa Valley resident, whose identify he’d like to keep anonymous so that his head grower isn’t lured to other companies.

At present, Powell says there are six similar production sites in Canada, with another 1,000 companies applying to the federal government for licences. “There’s huge potential growth in this industry, it’s like the oil industry was,” said Powell. The Town of Arnprior expressed interest in attracting a medical marijuana operation to its industrial area, but the one it had in mind located in the former Hershey plant in Smiths Falls. The Marijuana Business Fact Book last year said the business’s North American market size is $48 billion annually. GreenCross projects that Health Canada estimates are extremely conservative. Health Canada says the Canadian medical marijuana client market will grow from 58,000 users in

2014 to 450,000 in the next decade, while GreenCross projects one million users by 2024. The Hall Avenue facility is about 62,000 square feet, which Powell says is a good size, but still much smaller than the average licensed production site of 145,000 square feet. If Powell’s firm opens in Renfrew, he says the business could bring about two dozen jobs to the area. He says GreenCross would also like to do research and development in coordination with Renfrew Victoria Hospital. GreenCross’s own marketing package says the company mission is the safe and accessible distribution of high-quality cannabis products. In turn the company’s focus is on addressing quality of life, chronic illnesses and disease through targeted medicinal support and treatment.

Ottawa-Orleans MPP Marie-France Lalonde, who is parliamentary assistant to the minister for economic development, employment and infrastructure; Luke Barber, implementation manager for Bell Aliant; and Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon. “High-speed Internet is absolutely critical

to developing a better economy and building stronger communities,” said Emon, indicating that broadband not only promotes better business, health care, education and social services, but facilitates connections to research and expertise across the province and the globe. “It’s been a four-year build, but we cover

an area that’s larger than 100 countries,” said EORN co-lead Jim Pine, who’s also the Hastings County chief administrative officer. The next project for EORN involves an analysis to determine how gaps in cellularphone coverage in the region can be eliminated.

End of summer and return of separation anxiety Ian Stupp Pet Talk

Lifestyle – Labour Day, back to school and back to a full work schedule. The end of summer is just around the corner. Gone are the lazy days of summer spent on holidays with the family pet. One of the biggest problems a pet owner encounters at this time of year is separation anxiety, that nasty behaviour we see when we leave the house and fido goes ballistic, chewing and destroying such things as pillows, couches, articles of clothing and even oneself.

Here are some tips for making fido’s transition from busy summer to home alone. When leaving for the day, make sure fido’s in a secure place. Leave a bowl of water and some treats stuffed inside various toys to distract them throughout the day. Stuffing toys with foods like peanut butter and cheese whiz are a fun and delicious treat for your pet. Remove anything that you do not want your pet to have. If the area in which your pet is lacks adequate lighting, leave a light on. Also turning on the radio can be comforting to your pet while

Pet Adoptions

you’re away. Remember that animals cannot tell time nor do they wear watches. They will be as excited to see you whether you return in five minutes or in five hours. Therefore, it is best to leave with out any fanfare. Don’t get mushy and give big hugs and kisses. This outward behaviour confuses them and makes things worse. On the flip side when you arrive home after a long day at work, spend some time with them. This is a great time to bond, as well, after a long hectic day at the office there is nothing more beneficial than being with a pet to lower ones blood pressure. If you happened to purchase a puppy or kitten during the summer months and you are

worried about leaving them behind, you can teach them to accept your absence by leaving them alone for a few minutes, than leave for a few hours, building gradually to a full day. If all else fails, you can always hire a dog walker/sitter to look after fido while you’re away. Just like little children, your pets have feelings too and although they cannot articulate how they feel, what they do when you’re away is there way of saying ‘Hey! I miss you guys and don’t like being left alone’! Ian owns ad operates Wags & Whiskers Dog and Cat Grooming and Puppy Kindergarten at 118 John St. North, Arnprior.

Dogs, owners discover joys of dock diving

Lifestyle - The dock diving training day at Avalon Ranch near Renfrew in Horton was a big hit with the local community. Several breeds of dogs, big and small, made it out Aug. 24 to learn more about the exciting sport of dock diving. This year, Avalon Ranch divided up dogs and owners in smaller groups called ‘waves’ to allow for more individual pool time. This was one of many improvements that the Spurrells, owners of the ranch, have implemented this year. Line-ups were kept down to a minimum with the multiple waves rather than one line-up for the soldout training day. Head trainer Mary Spurrell had several training techniques up her sleeve with her positive reinforcement principles “to make for an enjoyable experience for all,â€? reported Todd Spurrell. The day ďŹ nished off with some of the more experienced dogs participating in a photo shoot. Spectators gathered as the “amazing dogsâ€? took to the air to catch and retrieve their favorite toy in Big Air, Extreme Vertical and Speed Retrieve events. Cindy Lottes Photography of Bristol, Quebec was on hand to capture

Packers schedule unveiled, home-opener Sept. 19

Sports - The Arnprior Packers kick off the Junior B hockey season in Renfrew Saturday, Sept. 13, but they don’t play the Timberwolves. On the opening Saturday of the season, Renfrew is hosting five games pitting Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League Valley Division teams against Metro Division rivals. Last year it was Arnprior’s turn to host the five games. This time Arnprior opens play at 9:30 a.m. with a game against the Ottawa Junior Canadiens at the MaTe-Way arena. Every Valley Division team follows with a game except for Shawville.

The Packers home opener is set for Friday, Sept. 19 when defending division playoff champion Almonte Thunder come to town for an 8 p.m. tilt. In all, the Packers have four regular season games in September, playing the Wolves in Renfrew Friday, Sept. 26 and hosting the Perth Blue Wings at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 28 at the Nick Smith Centre. The Packers wrap up their 41game regular schedule Feb. 8 in Perth. The team began tryouts last Thursday, Aug. 21 and Tuesday, Aug. 26. After more scrimmages to-

night (Thursday) and next Tuesday, the Packers will play two exhibition games at the Nick Smith Centre on the Sept. 6-7 weekend. The newly named Stittsville Rams come to town Saturday for a 5:30 p.m. game and the defending Metro-Valley champion Ottawa West Golden Knights are the competition Sunday at 2 p.m. The Packers also travel to Barbara Ann Scott Arena Sept. 11 to play Ottawa West once again. Over the summer, the Packers received the playing rights to defensemen Chris Deschamps and Mike Milito from the Golden Knights to complete last season’s trade of vet-

eran forward Ethan Allard to Ottawa West. Milito, an assistant captain with Ottawa, had 12 points in 22 games with the team, while Deschamps had eight points in 20 games. The Packers also acquired the playing rights of another defenceman, Corey Disdelle, from the Brockville Tikis in exchange for a 16-year-old card. The six-footer from Nepean has seven points in 30 game with Brockville last season. But perhaps the most important acquisition for the team involves the return of veteran sniper Casey Doner. The Ottawa Canadians have traded the playing rights of Doner of

He moved to the Renfrew Timberwolves where he scored 21 goals in 36 games and added 11 more in 13 playoff encounters. Last year, he had 31 points in 33 games for the Junior Canadians and exploded for 16 points in 11 playoff games. Forward Jake Gaudet, who played for both the Packers and Ottawa West last season, has been signed by the Central Ontario Junior Hockey League’s Kemptville 73s.

Sports – The Aug. 9 race was the most different of the first four in the inaugural Get Here From There running and cycling series run by Neat coffee shop in Burnstown. But race organizers Kim and Adam McKinty aren’t complaining about the response so far to the six-race monthly series. The Aug. 9 course followed logging roads as well as Highways 511 and 508 in the Calabogie-to-Burnstown 10-miler, as nearly 50 of the 58 entrants finished. “In general, the numbers are a little lighter than we wanted, but we’re patient and the feedback is positive,” said the organizers with emailed post-race reflections. “In time, the races will build slowly in popularity if the quality and atmosphere of the events continues to appeal to those coming. “Some of the recent drop in numbers is due to lengthening races. We’ll look at adding a more accessible race to each event next year.” Burnstown is the common finish line, while the various distances and starting points were or will be. Races still to go are the half-marathon run or 25-km cycle (to and from Arnprior, Sept. 28), and eight-kilometre rosscountry (to and from Stewartville, Oct. 18). A very positive response from sponsors with prizes has also been encouraging to the McKintys. “There has been a noticeable bump in the number runners and cyclists in the area,” report the organizers. “Ultimately the goal of the series was to encourage that sort of behaviour and whether the series has had an effect on that is difficult to say.

Arnprior women regain prestigious O’Brien Cup Sports - The Arnprior women’s golf team won the O’Brien Cup on the Renfrew Golf Course Saturday. Christine Lafortune led the way for the Arnprior team captained by Louise Mulvihill with a low gross 79 score in almost perfect weather. The 12-member team finished with an 885, edging defending champion Mississippi of Carleton Place by 16 strokes to recapture the trophy it had won for the 14th time in 2012. Renfrew was three strokes behind Mississippi at 904, with Pembroke finishing at 927 and Deep River 1,037. It was one of the closest O’Brien Cup

competitions in years. Following Lafortune for lowest gross scores was Pembroke’s Trish Shields at 81. The lowest net score was a 68 posted by Renfrew’s Christine O’Hara, followed by Arnprior’s Beth Pope who also shot 68. Joining Mulvihill, Lafortune and Pope on the Arnprior team were Cheryl Richardson-Burnie, Erin McCormick, Janice Nych, Judy Farrell, Pam Martin, Ev Anderson, Lenora Homulus, Gail Verge and Ilene Lavoie. The 2015 edition of the O’Brien Cup will be played on the Mississippi Golf Course.

Kyle Koski, Blake Smith, Warren Mooney, Joe Nych, Marc French, Jason McCormick and Mike Payer. Arnprior lost in a playoff to Pembroke in last year’s Gordon Cup tournament. Also competing are Renfrew, Mississippi and Deep River. Prior to that Arnprior has won three straight Gordon Cups.

Ema Lee Fashions: 11 years and counting

It was a hot June night in 2002 and everything was quiet in the small hamlet of Balderson. No one knew that in one house, there was a deal going down! Two men sat facing each other at the kitchen table in Mr. George Myers’ home. The conversation was quick and right to the point. Would Mr. Myers sell his old general store or not? That was the question. The sun was going down. The clocks on his wall ticked to their own tock. The silence had been broken. Finally a deal had been made on the back of a cigarette pack. The transformation began on the old general store and eleven years later Ema Lee Fashions is still a thriving, successful business. It is located seven kilometers north of Perth on Hwy 511 and open seven days a week. Gerry McSweeney and Emily Desjardine had no idea that the business would become such a huge success. “We are known all over for being the largest ladies clothing store in the Ottawa Valley and for being a destination shopping spot” Desjardine said. “The store is also known for it’s plethora of ladies apparel, swim suits, purses and men’s shirts”.

The Manotick-based team, which serves the Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec re-

And what the Holdens could really use for their Madawaska River initiative are some local volunteers, in particular those with boats or other equipment, to help keep the local program going and to grow it.

Christine Drouillard gets set for her tour down the Madawaska.

“We’re always looking to expand and for new opportunities,” said Chris. “And we do provide training to prospective clubs or sets of volunteers.” The program uses adaptive equipment and teaching techniques designed to ensure success. SkiAbility Ottawa started in 2003 as a not-for-profit, volunteer-driven initiative that joined the national movement in 2005 when it was launched by Water Ski and Wakeboard Canada. “Age and disability are not limitations, they merely change the approach to the sport,” say officials. “At SkiAbility Ottawa we believe in adapting the equipment to the skier not adapting the skier to the equipment!”

And when Auntie arrived, she went right upstairs like she owned the place, and put her tapestry bag on the chair and laid claim to the bed Audrey and I shared. We were doomed for the creton couch in the kitchen. Apart from the narrowness of the couch, sleeping in the kitchen was not a hardship in the summer, because the Findlay Oval had already been moved to the summer kitchen, quilts hung on the windows in the daytime to keep the sun out, and the kitchen became the coolest room in the house. It was the narrow couch that was the bane of our existence. Out in the summer kitchen was an old wire couch. The kind where one part sat on top of the other when it wasn’t in use, but when pulled apart became a double bed. Moving the cook stove to the summer kitchen, left one wall bare, and Audrey asked

couch downstairs. “Whew … hot ... boy ... whew,” we heard long into the night. When Aunty came downstairs in the morning, she didn’t look at all happy. The house had been cleared of Father and the boys, and Mother was bustling around the kitchen, already thinking of the next meal for the table. Aunty was in the same long black dress she came in. The only thing that was missing was the starched white collar and the bonnet. And she was fanning herself with a copy of the Renfrew Mercury. “Sure is hot upstairs,” she said. “Not a bit of air anywhere ... hardly slept a wink.” Mother, Audrey and I were in the summer kitchen getting into the day’s work. Audrey, who was already clearing up the breakfast dishes and setting out the dish pan of hot soapy water on the table while Mother bustled about filling a soup bowl with porridge for Aunty, gave me a poke while passing me: “I’ll give you a nickel if you tell Aunty that’s what we call character building in this here house.”

Mother why the old wire couch couldn’t be moved into the regular kitchen for Audrey and me. Mother hardly gave the idea a moment’s consideration (she was busy cooking dandelion greens, a favourite dish of Aunty’s), and said she saw no reason at all why the couch couldn’t be moved into the main kitchen. The boys could do that little chore when they came in for supper. After Audrey and I had redded up the kitchen, the three brothers dragged the wire couch into the coolest room in the house, and we hauled in the thin felt fold-over mattress. We didn’t even bother with sheets, so glad were we to have someplace to sleep other than the narrow creton couch! And a cool place at that! The walls of that old house were paper thin. And before we fell asleep, Audrey and I heard Aunty get up several times to use the chamber pot, walk across the floor to the window, and let out long and purposeful sighs. She also had the habit of talking to herself ... almost whispers, but loud enough that we could hear her from our

Lifestyle - Mother called it character building. My sister Audrey had another name for it, which she told me not to repeat in front of Mother. Every time I asked for something as simple as new hair ribbons and Mother reminded me there was a Depression on, and no money for frivolities, she called it character building. When bad Marguirite did something nasty to me, Mother called it character building. When my brother Emerson did me some dastardly deed, Mother called it character building. I figured I had enough character building in the ‘30s to last me into the next century! And so it was when the old aunt who appeared unannounced at least twice a year, and Audrey and I had to give up our bed upstairs, and sleep on the narrow creton couch in the kitchen, foot to foot ... Mother called it character building. The summer was beastly hot that year. The upstairs was like an oven. Even with the windows wide open in the boy’s room and the hall, the little breeze did little to cool it off.

ALS donations skyrocket with ice bucket challenge Arnprior mayor doused in cold THIS WEEK’S FEATURE water during White Pine Festival Brier Dodge R0012862831

brier.dodge@metroland.com

News - The regional manager for ALS Canada says donations and awareness have skyrocketed since the ALS ice bucket challenge, which came to Arnprior Saturday, went viral. “It’s great because it’s a once in a lifetime thing,” said Lianne Johnston of ALS Canada. “The amount of awareness it has raised is unbelievable.” The social media challenge asks individuals to dump a bucket of ice water on themselves and then nominate several others to do the challenge, and/or donate to ALS. Arnprior David Reid took the challenge Saturday afternoon at the White Pine FestiR0012055170/0425 55 ELGIN ST. W, ARNPRIOR val when he was doused with ice-cold water. In Renfrew, nine staff members at Odi’s Kingburger took the challenge Aug. 20 and in Carp several fair board officials did the same. Johnston said as of mid-last week, ALS Canada had raised $216,000 through the ice bucket challenge alone. “That’s $216,000 we didn’t have – and weren’t anticipating – last week,” she said. “The ice bucket challenges in Ottawa have been unbelievably strong and we have a couple of really good ones coming in today as Mayor Jim Watson and the chief of police did it.” By the end of the phone interview, incoming donations had risen to $294,000 and rising. Johnston has about 80 clients in the Ottawa-area. “It’s been fantastic,” said one of the clients, Heather Greenhalgh. “It’s an amazing way for people to show that they love you. A strange way, but an amazing way. It’s made me smile unbelievably.” 375 DANIEL ST. S, ARNPRIOR She said many of her family, friends and coworkers have done the ice bucket challenge.

frequently explains her ALS to people because she doesn’t want them to think the stagger in her step is due to drinking alcohol. “I say I have ALS and they don’t know what it is, and that’s a shame,” she said. Besides making her smile, she is happy to know how much money has been donated to ALS. She is hopeful that more research can be done with the funds, to find out why ALS happens and develop cures. “As an ALS patient, I’m absolutely delighted at the outcome,” she said. “Whoever started it is a genius.” The challenge took off slightly later in Canada than it did in the United States, as that’s where it first began. Funds donated in Canada aren’t earmarked for specific communities, but put into a pool for ALS-diagnosed clients all over Canada as well as research. Johnston said Ottawa is one of the top

The Ottawa-office of ALS Canada closed this month to eliminate overhead, though Johnston’s job was not dropped. Part of the client services for ALS Canada include loaning equipment for the rapidlyprogressing disease. Someone with ALS could quickly decline, and need a walker, then a manual wheelchair, then a power wheelchair, in quick succession. ALS Canada helps to loan out the equipment, as well as other services. “It’s really good to for the ALS community to see that the community is behind them,” she said. “One of the struggles is you get the diagnose and no one even knows what ALS is. So for them to see that people are coming behind them has been huge.” R0012861307

NOT ENOUGH HOMES FOR CATS AND DOGS

LCBO parking lot paving to be completed this week

This cat should have been spayed. Spaying/Neutering prevents the births of cats and dogs for whom no homes can be found. In Canada, tens of thousands of cats and dogs are put to death annually in pounds and shelters because there are not enough homes for them. And how many more die on the streets from sickness, injury and starvation? PLEASE SPAY AND NEUTER YOUR ANIMALS.

JOHN CARTER/METROLAND

Arnprior LCBO store customers and staff will soon no longer have to fight their way into and out of the store, as the repaving of the parking lot is expected to be completed this week. LCBO store manager Tom Bissonnette explained that the regrading and paving of the parking lot was needed because of pooling of water that was particularly dangerous in the winter when it froze over. The repaving and extending of the paved parking lot was “long overdue,” he said. He said most customers have been “really good” in being patient with the temporary access and parking limitations at the store.

Calling all orienteering volunteers The North American Orienteering Championships are looking for volunteers to help during the event in Arnprior and West Carleton over the Thanksgiving weekend (Oct. 10-13). Volunteers are needed in many areas. If interested or if you would like more information, call 613-623-7301 or email garthur@arnprior.ca. In the spring, organizers held a preliminary orienteering challenge and brought in an expert to scope out the site of some of the orienteering contest areas near Carp.

The championships will be held throughout West Carleton and Arnprior and headquartered at Robert Simpson Park in Arnprior.

Let’s all unite to eradicate bullying in schools R0012851159

Lifestyle - According to the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, at least one Canadian teenager out of three can tell stories about what it’s like to be a victim of bullying at school. Other Canadian studies show that bullying occurs every seven minutes in the playground and every 25 minutes in the classroom. Do these statistics shock you? Whether you’re a student, parent, or educator, you have a role to play in putting an end to bullying. Bullying is not only about pushing peo-

ing, pinching, hounding, jostling, stealing or destroying possessions, and sexual touching of an undesirable nature. Cyberbullying includes using the Internet or text messaging to bully, humiliate, make fun of, or circulate rumours about someone. Are you, or one of your friends, a victim of bullying? Is your child a victim, or perhaps even the bully? Several resources are available to you, including Kids Help Phone at 1-800-6686868 or www.kidshelpphone.ca.

ple around or calling them names. There are in fact four principal types of bullying, and being able to identify them is a first step in the fight to eradicate this scourge. Verbal bullying includes insults, sarcasms, teasing, the spreading of rumours, threats, inappropriate sexual comments, and slurs about culture, race, religion, gender, or sexual-orientation. Social bullying includes group threats, making a scapegoat of someone, exclusion, public humiliation, and demeaning graffiti. Physical bullying includes hitting, push-

Many Canadians need to improve their financial planning grade not surprisingly, the same amount (46 per cent) admitted they do not have a regular savings plan set up to put aside money each month. Canadians also don’t make the grade when it comes to goal setting – only 31 per cent set a specific financial goal or resolution for 2014. “Whether you’re an avid saver or just starting out, creating and meeting financial goals takes a sustained effort,� says Silvio Stroescu, managing director of savings and investments at Tangerine. “Managing personal finances can’t be done on a reactionary basis once or twice a year. It’s an ongoing habit that takes time and commitment.� The good news is that the year is only two-thirds over,

and there is still time to focus on savings goals and resolutions. Nearly one-third of Canadians (31 per cent) plan to set a new financial goal before the year is over, and out of these respondents, most said their goal will be focused on saving more money (30 per cent) and paying down credit cards or other loans (20 per cent). In addition to planning for personal goals, it’s important to take into account unexpected expenses and to save money for a rainy day. The study found that 30 per cent of Canadians reported that they could not handle more than $500 in unexpected expenses without going into debt. Another 28 per cent couldn’t handle unexpected expenses over $2,000.

News - Beyond the students heading back to class this September, back-toschool affects everyone according to a new study by Tangerine, which found that almost 60 per cent of Canadians view the season as a new beginning and unofficial New Year. The study also found that this fresh start may be necessary in terms of lessons in finance, as many Canadians show there is a lot of room for improvement when it comes to their savings habits and goals for 2014. When asked to grade their savings habits so far for 2014, nearly half of all Canadians (46 per cent) gave themselves a ‘C’ or lower, saying they need to get back on track or haven’t yet started saving this year.

1. Thou shalt do your homework every evening. The best time is as soon as you get home from school, after you eat a healthy snack. 2. Thou shalt carry only what you need in your backpack. Carry only the things you need, morning and evening, no more, no less. This will help you prevent back in- jury from carrying excess weight. 3. Thou shalt be polite and respectful. Treat with respect your teachers, class-mates, and school personnel. Don’t forget the school crossing guard and the bus driver. 4. Thou shalt denounce any bullying. Whether you’re a victim or a witness, you have a role to play in putting an end to bullying and intimidation. 5. Thou shalt wait your turn to speak. If you want to ask a question or answer one, allow others to finish talking first. Raise your hand if that is part of the etiquette of your classroom. 6. Thou shalt adopt healthy habits. Eat

well, exercise more, and get enough sleep. Make these healthy habits a part of your routine. 7. Thou shalt have the courage to ask for help. Get help with homework if you don’t understand the material. There are many resources available to help you along, including your own teachers, tutors, and other education professionals. 8. Thou shalt respect the dress code. You will do better in life if you concentrate your efforts on your academic success and not on how to attract members of the opposite sex. 9. Thou shalt learn how to be independent. Take notes, ask questions, study before an exam, and look for ways to improve yourself. These are the responsibilities of a mature person. 10. Thou shalt persevere. No one feels motivated all the time; however, decide now that dropping out of school is not an option. Get help to stay motivated by going to see your school’s guidance department or talking to a parent or wise friend.

Clockwise from above right: veteran bluesman Jimmie Vaughan was the headliner at the Calabogie Bluesfest/Ribfest at Calabogie Peaks on Saturday, Aug. 16. His performance was followed by fireworks, which Vaughan is reported to have praised as the best he’s ever seen. Saturday’s soggy conditions limited walk-in crowds, but the rain ended before the evening performances and fireworks. And as the saying goes rain may ‘muddy the waters, but it won’t wash the blues away.’ ; Jerome Gadboo had blues harmonica music drifting up the ski hill; and Dawn Tyler Watson and Ben Racine drew rave reviews with their performance Sunday, Aug. 17.

Sasquatch joins growing number of supporters of area’s residential hospice Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

JOHN MCMASTER/SUBMITTED

Heritage Radio listeners help Hospice Renfrew Hospice Renfrew got a boost recently from listeners of Valley Heritage Radio. The station collected donations at the weekly Kitchen Party Live events every Saturday from October through June, and donated $600 to the hospice. Station manager Jason Marshall, centre, and Kitchen Party Live host Mike Cloutier, left, present the cheque to Hospice Renfrew past-board chair Karl Murphy. Marshall said the station was happy to partner with such a worthwhile organization, and thanked all the iisteners who donated to the cause.

Community - A Sasquatch, who came out of the woods to give a rare and recent interview, says he remains at no fixed address. “The bush is my home,” said the usually evasive seven-foot-one hairy local. He also indicated he’s not nearly as scary as he looks and that he is pivotal to the newest fundraiser for Hospice Renfrew, the residential hospice that services Renfrew, Arnprior and other Upper Ottawa Valley communities. The move has been confirmed by Larry Lepack, who has offered to serve as Sasquatch’s agent for no fee. Lepack also confirmed that he and wife Jill will co-ordinate the Upper Ottawa Valley Sasquatch Sighting Society (SSS), which will generate funds through respective individual and corporate SSS memberships of $10 and $100.

For corporate memberships, the company also receives an 8x10 photo of staff employees with Sasquatch. New members, in turn, will be invited onto a restricted-access Facebook site that will feature photos of Sasquatch sightings and other related information. For memberships, contact lepack.larry@ gmail.com, call 613-281-0547 and 613-4323047, or drop by Hospice Renfrew. “Hospice Renfrew is one of the greatest things ever ... because there has never been a greater need for a palliative-care facility,” said Lepack. Lepack said retired paramedic and renowned outdoorsman Brad Smith will head up the research and tracking team for Big Foot Sightings, with help from visually-impaired Keith McDonald and his guide dog Murphy. Lepack said the individual memberships can be a small but tasteful gift for special occasions.

Love always And Remembered, Rita and Families

who passed away on August 28, 2012; As we look upon your picture Sweet memories we recall, Of a face so full of sunshine, A smile for one and all. Though your smile has gone forever And your hand we cannot hold, We shall never lose our memories, Of the one we loved so much. We miss you so much; Love and remembrance lasts forever: Love James & Hilda

The moment that you died, Our hearts split in two, The one side ďŹ lled with memories, The other died with you. We often lay awake at night, When the world is fast asleep, And take a walk down memory lane, With tears upon our cheeks. Remembering you is easy, We do it every day, But missing you is a heartache, That never goes away. We hold you tightly within our hearts And there you will remain, Life has gone on without you, But it will never be the same. For those who still have their moms, Treat her with tender care, You will never know the emptiness, As when you turn and she is not there. Love forever Gerald, Donna & family Jerry, Bev & family

It is with utmost sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved Colleen. Surrounded by Ronnie, Sarah and Jake on Saturday August 23rd, 2014. Loving wife and best friend of Ronnie. Devoted mother of Sarah and Jake. Born on St. Patrick’s Day, 1963, Colleen was the middle daughter of Patrick Valiquette and the late Shirley (nee Davidson) of the Opeongo Line. Beloved sister of John (Donna) Cormac, Mark (Colleen) Peterborough, Mary (Emile Emond) Arnprior, Paddy (Leah) Stirling, Rachel (Bill Pettigrew) Renfrew. Fondly remembered by many Aunts, Uncles, nieces nephews and cousins. Colleen was a woman of many talents and had a strong abiding faith from which she always drew comfort. She had a knack for making everyone she met feel special. Colleen enjoyed a childhood full of fun, work and wonder: from – working in the hay, pretend weddings with her sisters Mary and Ray up the old road, fireworks in the front yard, huge games of baseball and ball hockey with the O’Briens, Aubreys, Davidsons and many other neighbours, trips to Lake Clear, endless berry picking, Sunday mass with a picnic to follow at the Dacre turn or NewFoundout, treats at Breens store, and all 6 kids being packed into a car in the dead of winter to spend Christmas with Granny and Grampy Davidson and their clan up in Kapuskasing. Then one day, on the school bus, a tall handsome boy caught Colleen’s attention and her Irish eyes have been smiling ever since. On any given day, a visit to their home, meant you’d likely hear Ronnie on the guitar accompanying Colleen with her beautiful voice. Along with her beautiful voice, her Irish wit and kindly nature, it was surely a home abound with music, love and laughter – not to mention the smell of homemade bread coming from the kitchen and a fresh tin of buttertarts cooling on the rack. It was here, just a stone’s throw from where she was raised, in the home they built together (often with a new project underway) that Colleen was happiest. Her plans for the day would often include a 4-Wheeler ride to the camp in the mountains she loved. Making her happiness complete were her most precious possessions, Sarah and Jake, of whom she was so very proud. A celebration of Colleen’s life will be held on Saturday August 30th at 11 a.m. at St. Josephs Catholic Church, Esmonde, on the Opeongo Line. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Renfrew Victoria Hospital, Oncology Unit would be appreciated. We love you Cause. You done good.

Summer Sunset festival cancelled

Junkin’ Johnny entertains JOHN CARTER/METROLAND

Right, Junkyard Johnny hams it up with young Tyson Basiala as they break some moves at the Pineridge Children’s Centre 14th anniversary celebration. The Junkyard Symphony appeared twice recently in Arnprior, performing at Pineridge Aug. 14 and coming back to entertain and share his conservation message at the White Pine Festival Aug. 24. Below, Junkyard Johnny, who is backed up by Dangerous Derek on the drums, has the Pineridge kids (and staff ) roaring with laughter with his goggles and plunger routine.

Lifestyle - The Summer Sunset Festival planned for the Galilee Centre in Arnprior Sept. 7 has been cancelled. The event’s planning committee announced late last week, after the event had been publicized in the Aug. 21 Chronicle-Guide that it was a no-go. The

committee explained that the decision was made because participation appeared to be lower than expected. There is so many other events going on at this time of year that it’s difficult to properly hold another fundraiser, it explained.
