Above, reviewing officer Leonard Spinks salutes the parade as it passes by his post. Left, Silver Cross Mother Norma Dixon, right, is escorted by Eleanor Closs Murray in laying a wreath.

Councillor airs concerns over campaign misspeaking sherry.haaima@metroland.com

News – McNab-Braeside Coun. Brad McIlquham wants to clear up a few things. The outgoing township councillor, who lost his bid for the deputy mayor seat’s in the Oct. 27 municipal election, read from a prepared statement at the Nov. 4 council meeting. “During the recent municipal election campaign the integrity of this council and our dedicated staff came into question,” he said. “Several of the incoming members of the new McNab-Braeside council based much of their campaign on the rumour of the so-called ‘Campbell Rink of Dreams’ that has never been brought to council for any type of consideration,” he said. Another issue he raised concerned a letter in the Chronicle-Guide. “In a recent letter to the editor in the Oct. 23 issue of the Chronicle-Guide entitled ‘Mayoralty candidate’s platform informed, sensible’, there

is information given to the writer that policing costs are only going up eight per cent over three years – the uninformed mayoral-elect did not inform the writer that council has already received a statement for $108,000 and that is just the first of a total of five increases that will be received. “This amount is in addition to the more than $430,000 per year we currently pay,” said McIlquham. RESERVE FUND QUESTION

He went on to say Tom Peckett, who will be sworn in as mayor at the inaugural meeting in December, would like a forensic financial audit completed, as he has stated that there is $287,000 in reserves unaccounted for. Treasurer Angela Lochtie addressed that issue. “Just to be clear, $287,000 is not missing,” she stressed. The item in question involves transferring of $287,231.51 from municipal development

Noise and traffic concerns expressed, but public turnout low at hearing Continued from front

Another nearby neighbour complained that traffic in the area is too loud already. And that it bottlenecks at times past the restaurant when the boulevard’s four lanes reduce to two. She is concerned that construction will increase the noise and more traffic will threaten safety. Smith explained that Madawaska is a county road and that the developer is required to produce a traffic study. The draft plan shows two access points onto the boulevard for the 148 townhouses, 20 semidetached dwellings and 113 single detached dwellings. If more lanes are required to expand

Three incoming council members, including Peckett, were in the audience at the meeting. “I simply want to state that I certainly hope that the incoming council will quickly learn what integrity and dedication really is,” said McIlquham. Peckett responded with a statement in the public question period. “I sat here in a budget meeting when you were all present and it came up that there was a reserve of $284,000 that no one sitting in this room knew what it was for and that you had to contact the former treasurer to find out what that money was for. Never once did I indicate that I thought that money was missing,” he said.

To the residents of McNab-Braeside, For the past 8 years it has been an honour to serve on council.

the boulevard out past town limits, the developer would be responsible. The noise factor was not addressed by the town. Gillies stood up again to ask about “uneven terrain” and allowances for height so the homes will not be visible from the boulevard. Smith said the developer must provide drainage plans and indicate if elevation will be needed. Peter Anas, who co-owns the restaurant, gas station and car wash with his brother Jimmy, was at the meeting. They also own the nearby proposed development. Neither Peter nor any member of council spoke during the meeting. It is considered the last large-scale residential development plan in Arnprior.

reserve fund to solid waste reserve, which was presented at a meeting in May. In preparation for the development charges study, a review of the reserve funds identified the issue. The fund was one flagged as having been established prior to 1997 and subject to reclassification but that hadn’t been completed. Lochtie said she had consulted with the former treasurer who confirmed the issue had been identified, but the change had not been made. She addressed the audit question. “The township’s financial statements are already audited on an annual basis,” she said. “We will be audited in early 2015.”

Thank you for this opportunity.

Mourning and the Holiday Season The holiday season is upon us. Both the Canadian Mental Health Association and the National Institute of Health in the United States point out that the holiday season is a time when there is a high incidence of dread and depression, not just anticipation and excitement. If you have recently experienced the death of a significant person in your life, the holiday season can be particularly difficult. With all the messages of family togetherness and joy, the emptiness left behind when someone dies is in harsh contrast to what society seems to “expect” us to feel. On Wednesday, November 26, from 7:00 – 9:00 P.M. in the lower level of the hospice, there will be a special educational workshop designed to help you find ways to cope more effectively with your grief during the holiday season.

please join us to learn about our services and how we help young entrepreneurs launch and build successful businesses.

The facilitator for this workshop is Ian Henderson, Life Coach and Grief Educator. Ian studied with Dr. Alan Wolfelt and is a graduate of the Death and Grief Studies Certification Program at the Center for Loss and Life Transition in Fort Collins, Colorado. Ian offers support groups and one-on-one grief coaching to the bereaved and he has been presenting educational workshops for the last 7 years in the Ontario region.

Presented by: Futurpreneur Canada & Enterprise Renfrew County Location: Renfrew County Place Address: 450 O’Brien Rd., Renfrew ON (Boardroom) Date: November 27th, 2014 Time: 12:00-1:30pm Registration: kfraser@countyofrenfrew.ca or 613-735-8224

Because the lower level of the hospice has limited seating, advanced registration is required. Please register by Friday, November 15 by calling 613-433-3993, extension 2231 or by emailing support@hospicerenfrew.ca Please note that space at the hospice is limited, so register early. Seats will be available on a “first come, first served” basis. Please leave a name and contact number so that your registration can be confirmed and you can be assured of a seat.

Overpassing the highway

ottawavalley .COM

The Campbell Drive overpass over Highway 417 is starting to take shape as work continues on the next phase of the four-laning to Scheel Drive (which will have a flyover). While this section of the highway expansion is expected to be completed by fall of 2016, there is no schedule for the next phase. However, some Renfrew County officials, particularly Petawawa Mayor Bob Sweet, are suggesting that the project skip up to Deep River and work its way back down the Valley instead of the other way around. The suggestion was made during a Ministry of Transportation update given at the Oct. 29 Renfrew County council meeting. MTO officials made note of the suggestion and said the property needed to four-lane the highway on the busy Pembroke to Petawawa stretch has already been acquired.

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Some drivers on Highway 17 between Arnprior and Renfrew were surprised last week with new delays because of construction, this time west of the four-laning work from Campbell to Scheel drives. Ontario Ministry of Transportation ofďŹ cials explain the work that is being done includes centre-line rumble strips and centre-line yellow line painting. The area affected started from Calabogie Road in McNab-Braeside, and is heading westerly eventually going as far as Greenwood Road in Whitewater Region, for a total of 57 kilometres. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The traveling public should expect ďŹ ve-to-10-minute delays during operations,â&#x20AC;? said Cheryl Carew, communications services co-ordinator for MTO, Eastern Region, on Wednesday, Nov. 5. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The operation is moving in the westbound direction starting at Calabogie Road at a rate of six to eight kilometres a

day.â&#x20AC;? However, some motorists reported delays up to half-an-hour. That is in addition to the intermittent stops for the four-laning work nearer to Arnprior. The rumble strip work, along with the trafďŹ c delays, were expected to move on to the west side of Renfrew early this week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The centre-line rumble strip installation is a very mobile operation and lane closures/speed reductions are sporadic throughout the project limits,â&#x20AC;? said Carew. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pilot vehicles are being used to guide motorists through the lane closures safely.â&#x20AC;? The project is scheduled to be completed by the end of November. As for the delays just west of Arnprior as crews work on four-laning a section of the highway, that should continued for some time. That project is not slated for completion until October 2016. Road information is available at 1-800-268-4686, on the MTO website at mto.gov.on.ca and on Twitter at â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;511 Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

News – Arnprior OPP are investigating the theft of a rifle in town. OPP report the gun was stolen from a storage locker in June but it was not noticed to be missing prior to hunting season. The break-in to the storage unit on Staye Court Drive was first reported when it happened in June and the only thing thought missing was a TV.  But when the owner went recently to retrieve a Marlin 30-30 lever action gun it was gone. OPP Constable Steph Tremblay is investigating. It was one of 213 calls for service responded to by Renfrew and Arnprior OPP last week. Among them were 11 domestic disputes. One man was charged with intimidation and theft under $5,000.

Aggregate licence application resubmitted

News – Miller Paving has reworked its application for an aggregate licence for the proposed expansion at the Braeside Quarry in an effort to get provincial government ministries to look more favourably on it. A public information meeting to unveil the new application will be held Wednesday, Nov. 26 in Arnprior. The notice of the session, to be held from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Masonic Hall at 31 James St., says it is to present the details of the application for “an expanded Category 2, Class ‘A’ quarry below water on 103 hectares (50 hectares to be extracted).” The application was first made in 2008, but that one has been withdrawn and a new one been submitted. The process goes hand-in-hand with the rezoning and official plan amendments that are subject of Ontario Municipal Board appeals by both Miller and area residents. The timing of Miller’s resubmission and the 45-day approval process, which started Oct. 30, has some area residents concerned that the new McNab-Braeside council will not have enough time to properly consider the issue and make comments. The first planning meeting scheduled for the new council is Dec. 8, one week before the deadline for comment. Const. Raul Pasta Junior is investigating. A second vehicle was also entered overnight on the same street, but nothing was taken and no damage done. Gas was siphoned out of a vehicle parked at a residence on Burnstown Road in McNab-Braeside overnight on Monday, Nov. 3. The thief left the gas cover off the vehicle’s gas tank and stolen about a quarter tank of

Remember â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Never Againâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Opinion - Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growing militarism and nationalism has been well documented. There is no question that Prime Minister Stephen Harper has spent millions of taxpayer dollars to convince Canadians that we are a nation that should actively participate in the battle against terrorism on the world stage. However, back home there hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been enough done to deal with effects warfare has on our young men and women in uniform: suicides, homelessness and countless broken families. Following the murder of two soldiers â&#x20AC;&#x153;on the homefront,â&#x20AC;? it is apparent many Canadians are resigned to the fact we are in a permanent state of war. It is called the War on Terror. And we must be ever vigilant. However, that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean every answer to our forays on the world scene should involve the use of military force. Some focus needs to be maintained on the root cause of the terrorism that afflicts our globe, even reaching into our normally peaceful country. Certainly efforts need to be taken to safe-

guard our soldiers and residents against terror. But the only sure way to make to make safety and peace long-lasting is to tackle the reasons why some of our young people are susceptible to the blandishments of those who espouse violence and hate. Raising fears about homegrown terrorism shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be allowed to unduly whip up fear and necessarily lead to spending more on the military and less on health care and education â&#x20AC;Ś and veterans. If weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to keep sending soldiers on missions in Afghanistan and other countries, and on bombing runs in Iraq, we need to pledge to look after them properly when they return, often psychologically harmed, home from serving their country. And we need to continue to strive to prevent such conflicts that threaten to throw us all back into widespread warfare. There was much said again this year, during Remembrance Day commemorations, that had to do with Lest We Forget. Next year letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s make sure Never Again regains its rightful place.

Eight choir rehearsal tips To the Editor: 1. When the last note is sung, and the last chord is played, stop, look and l-i-s-t-en - do not delay! 2. Remember, your director has been listening too, and now, s/he has information for yo-u. 3. This is certainly not the time for chatter - this will make you miss some points that matter! 4. When a section (thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not yours) deals with a correction, you should listen as wellthereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always a connection.

5. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Hands up for questionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is an excellent rule, which you learned long ago, when you were in school! 6. Keep your music in order - alphabetically is fine, then itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to change, once the sequence is defined. 7. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to share a laugh or two, b-u-t remember your basic etiquette, too! 8. If these guidelines are followed by e-ve-r-y-o-n-e, at the end, you will hear â&#x20AC;&#x153;bravoâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;well done!â&#x20AC;? Dolly Embee. Arnprior

To the Editor: Conservative backbencher Cheryl Gallant has called the response of the Opposition to the recent tragic events â&#x20AC;&#x153;disappointingâ&#x20AC;? and goes on to denounce them (and their supposed enablers in the media), which are now, according to her, postulating wild conspiracy theories about the shooting; a la Michael Moore. I have read the Parliamentary Hansard for the several days following the attacks, and I saw the statements of the Prime Minister and Opposition Leaders in the immediate aftermath. It makes it difficult for me to fathom exactly what is so disappointing about their responses considering, although they differed in words, the sentiments that have been expressed have all been the same. Sad as it may be, the tragedy united our po-

Her suggestion that the media is postulating wild conspiracy theories about what happened, which paint the government in a negative light, is a farce.

Quarry re-application doesn’t leave time for public input To the Editor: Here we go again! There probably aren’t many people in this community who don’t know about the controversial expansion and industrialization of the Braeside Quarry.  Most of you know that many members of the Braeside community are taking on Miller Paving Limited, a large company which wants expand its aggregate operation and establish a permanent asphalt plant  close to  people’s back yards. Fighting this permanent asphalt plant is a very costly process at the Ontario Municipal Board, which is set to hold hearings next March. At the hearing the residents will be raising concerns about the use of their property as a buffer, concerns about groundwater quality and quantity as well as concerns about adverse impacts from Miller’s blasting operations. What you may not know is that Miller must also get an aggregate licence from the Ministry of Natural Resources for the expansion.  But the Ministry had objected to Miller’s application for an aggregate permit for the expansion, with 25 pages of solid reasons. The Ministry of Environment and Climate Change had said that they might not give Miller a Permit To Take Water for the expansion, again clearly not a ‘go-ahead’ as Miller cannot quarry without it. So what is Miller doing? They have withdrawn their 2008 Aggregate Resources Act Li-

cense application and submitted a new one to MNR this October. New studies, new quarry site plans, (the quarry Bible which must be followed), whole new process. Comment deadline is Dec. 15

Once the notification went into the ChronicleGuide, the clock started ticking on a 45-day period when the council and the public can study the application and all the numerous scientific reports and raise their concerns and objections. A public meeting is scheduled for Nov. 26 and the deadline for comment is Dec. 15. But here’s the catch. With the old council leaving and the new council not even sworn in until December, there is a very real concern that the council will not have sufficient time to carefully review and consider Miller’s new application. Moreover, given the upcoming holiday season, the public’s opportunity to have sufficient time to review and provide comments has also been seriously curtailed. Given that hundreds of people have expressed their concerns and disapproval over the proposed expansion and the establishment of a permanent asphalt plant, the lack of meaningful public consultation is a matter which should concern us all.

The Stick that lays eggs Lifestyle - Whenever I meet someone emerging from a forest, I ask: “What have you seen?” Usually I hear of an interesting bird or colourful flower, but occasionally the response is: “Nothing!” The latter tells me something important about the person: he or she simply doesn’t know how to look. When one’s eyes become aware of the diverse and oft times cryptic ways in which Nature presents herself, new sights are found on every outing. But even to the most trained and discriminating eyes, some things continue to remain hidden. The eggs of Walking Stick eggs are a case in point. Walking Sticks, also called Stick Bugs, can be difficult to see because of their remarkable resemblance to twigs, and their habit of eating leaves up high in oak trees. Over the years most I have encountered were sitting on window screens, attracted at night by the house lights. After mating, a two-day event that takes place near

Michael Runtz Nature’s Way the ground, female Walking Sticks lay their eggs on the ground. The size of pinheads, the tiny eggs are virtually impossible to find in the wild. Recently, we found a Walking Stick on our house and put it in a small terrarium so that I could show it to my Natural History students at Carleton University. It ate the oak leaves (hard to find at this time of year!) that I put in the container, and in return deposited a scattering of tiny, elongate droppings.

When I looked more closely at its deposits, I could see small round objects scattered amongst them. The Walking Stick was a gravid female and she had laid her eggs! Now, insect eggs might not seem something to get particularly excited about. However, Walking Stick eggs are very different from most other insect eggs, looking more like seeds of wildflowers such as violets. And they not only look like wildflower seeds but also “behave” like them! The seeds of violets, trilliums, bloodroot, and most spring flowers are very attracMICHAEL RUNTZ tive to ants.

News – The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) will present the third lecture of their current series ‘When a Tree Falls in the Forest, Does Anyone Hear?’ on Thursday, Nov. 20. The talk will be held in the social hall of Almonte United Church at 106 Elgin St. at 7:30 pm. Guest speaker for the evening will be Anita Payne, full-time climate activist and a local leader in the Climate Reality Project Canada. Her presentation is entitled ‘Climate Change and Implications for Health and Well-Being’. The debate involving the reality of climate change and global warming has been ongoing for many years. At the November meeting of MVFN, the following questions will inspire thoughts: What is the scientific explanation and evidence for global warming and climate change? What effects are we seeing locally and globally? What are the implications to the health and well-being of the human race as well as our wildlife population? Is it too late to stop climate change? Can anything still be done? “We are all in this together and we all, in our

own way, need to address the crisis created by climate change,” says Payne For many years, she has been dedicated to the call for action to address the global crisis inherent in climate change, not just for future generations but for all life, now, on planet Earth. Her thoughtprovoking presentation will include not only the implications for human health and the health of the natural world, but also what can still be done to avoid the worst consequences of climate change. Payne will share her recent experiences during the Great March for Climate Action in the U.S., including a number of in-person meetings with ‘climate refugees’. From the information presented in this lecture, perhaps audience members will each discover a contribution they can make to help reverse climate change. Refreshments and discussion will follow the talk, which is free for MVFN members, or $5 at the door. For more information, contact MVFN’s program chair, Gretta Bradley, at glbradley@icloud. com.

Civitan will soon be back in Arnprior Organization to be revived Community – Civitan, a community service organization, is being revived in Arnprior. Civitan clubs are made up of local volunteers meeting local needs by working with youth, senior citizens and people with developmental disabilities. Three key points in Civitan are service, knowledge and fellowship. Civitan is truly an international service organization with clubs in 40 countries around the world.  Canadian District East Civitan, to which Arnprior will belong, has 16 clubs from Montreal to Petawawa, with a membership of 596 volunteers. For the past couple of months, Civitan members from Kingston, Perth, Almonte and Pakenham have been meeting

with local volunteers to re-energize Civitan in Arnprior.  Local volunteer Glenn Miller has been instrumental in getting a group of dedicated volunteers together to rebuild Civitan in the area. Arnprior has had a proud history with Civitan, both with the adult age group and also the junior Civitan. It is organizers’ hope to have the new Arnprior Civitan Club chartered before Christmas. If you would like to be a chartered member of the club, please come out to its next planning meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 19 at 7 p.m. at the Arnprior Legion. The group is hoping to set a date for a charter night.

News - Hunting season is upon us and area health units are reminding hunters to be aware that they also share the great outdoors with ticks that can make them sick. Lyme disease is caused by being bitten by an infected tick. In this area there are several different types of ticks. Lyme disease is caused by the bite of an infected black-legged tick (also known as deer ticks). A tick must be attached to you for at least 24-36 hours in order to transmit Lyme disease. If a tick is attached for longer than 24 hours, and removed within the past 72 hours then it is important to contact a health care provider. What can you do to minimize your exposure to ticks? • Wear light coloured, long sleeved shirts and long pants. For extra protection, tuck your pants into your socks. Use bug repellent containing DEET. Read the manufacturer’s instructions before applying the repellent on yourself or children. • When you return from the outdoors, check your entire body thoroughly for ticks including your scalp. • If you find an attached tick, remove it promptly using a pair of tweezers or a tick remover. Grasp the tick’s head and mouth parts as close to the skin as possible and pull it straight out gently, but firmly. Avoid twisting or squeezing the tick during removal. Quick removal of a tick will prevent you from getting lyme disease. For further information on Lyme Disease, contact the Health Action Line at 1-800-660-5853 or visit www. healthunit.org.

Valley plant reopening to create up to 160 forestry jobs News – A large federal government loan and a break in hydro costs have led to a fibreboard plant reopening near Pembroke. The restarting of the Pembroke MDF plant last week has created close to 100 jobs for Valley workers. Once the plant reaches full capacity next year, it is expected to employ 160 workers. The reopening of the plant is also a boon for area forestry companies. It will be using their chips to make fibre-board and mouldings. The plant, owned by Chilean interests, has been closed since 2008. The improved economic climate and the federal repayable contribution of up to $3 million played key roles in the decision to start up the plant. So did a break, lobbied for by Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski, in Ontario Hydro rates.

The contribution is through FedDev Ontario’s Investing in Business Growth and Productivity Initiative, which is aimed at helping businesses expand their operations, invest in productivity improvements and compete globally. The plant also qualified for the Industrial Electricity Incentive program, which provides a provincial break on high provincial electricity prices to large industrial users. The total project cost is $20 million.

the plant was again operating and employing workers. “It is my pleasure to publically thank the owners of the fibre board plant, Juan Obach, Juan Andres Camus and Felix Bacigalupo, for their confidence in our local community,” she said in a news release after attending the plant’s opening. “When the plant closed down in 2008 as a result of the global recession, the future was uncertain. Fortunately for the Upper Ottawa Valley, these gentlemen never lost faith in our community. “The Pembroke MDF plant has played an important role in our community over the years in terms of producing quality materials and employment.

Township honours retiring Waba museum volunteer Community - A gathering was held in White Lake Nov. 9 to honour an outstanding volunteer in the community. McNab-Braeside Township has had many wonderful volunteers throughout the years, but municipal committee members feel the work done by Brenda Storie has been unique and deserves special recognition. Storie has been a member of the Waba museum committee for almost 30 years. When the committee was approached about having gardens created to commemorate the millennium, she embraced the idea enthusiastically. She took a leave from her place of work to spend her time working on the development of the gardens in 2000. For about 12 years she co-ordinated volunteers for work days, took the bookings for weddings and events at the grounds, and acted as secretary to the committee. But first and foremost were her outstanding efforts with the gardens. In spring, summer, and fall Storie could be found on many days busy at planning, planting and maintaining the various gardens. She also trained and provided supervision for our many summer students. The museum committee has chosen to honour her with a depiction of the Waba Cottage Museum and Gardens as created by artist Richard Gill of Burnstown. “On behalf of the museum committee and the many people who derive pleasure from visiting the site of Waba Cottage, thank you, and we hope you will enjoy this gift for many years to come,” were the wishes expressed with the gift.

Family and friends gather in the White Lake fire hall Sunday to honour long-time McNabBraeside volunteer Brenda Storie. She retires after countless hours tending to the gardens at the Waba cottage museum, among other activities.

Bomber champions Southend B3 goalie Lawson Nadeau readies for a save during round robin play against Alex Szabo and his Westend Bombers team. The Bombers would win the nailbiter 2-1 and go on to claim the Arnprior Bantam House tournament held over the Nov. 8-9 weekend. They defeated Pembroke B3 by a convincing score of 5-2.

Deep River scrambles to get the puck out of its zone during a game against Pembroke on the weekend in Arnprior. Deep River would win the tight checking game 3-2. An Ottawa team, the Westend Bombers, would take the tournament. Neither Arnprior team made it past the round robin level.

The West Carleton Warriors had their chances. Here they swarmed the net, as they did on a number of occasions, but the other team’s goalie always seemed to be in the right place at the right time.

Packers on roll with three-game win streak John Carter

John.carter@metroland.com

Sports – What a difference a week makes. Last week, the Junior B Arnprior Packers were stumbling along in fifth place in the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League’s Valley division with a 4-9 record. A week later, the club is 7-9 and in third place. And the three wins were against the two top teams in the Valley Division and the Metro division-leading Ottawa West Golden Knights. Furthermore, the team overcame the fatigue of playing three games in four days to chalk up the victories. The Packers kicked off their streak with an impressive 7-1 shellacking of Ottawa West last Thursday in Ottawa. Arnprior’s special teams were key to the win, as the power-play went four-for-four and the penalty killers stymied the Golden Knights on all of their four power-plays.

for all of their eight. After Cody Antononi had given Renfrew an early lead, Arnprior responded for three goals in five minutes in the first from Brayden Harvey, Doner and Darnowski to take a 3-1 lead. Renfrew tied the game with two goals in the second and took the lead early in the third, before Doner’s heroics. Plaschy made 23 saves in the Packer net. On Sunday afternoon in Stittsville against the division-leading Rams, Plaschy not only made 32 of 33 saves again, he earned assists on Arnprior’s last two goals in a 3-1 win. James Prebble, Patrick McGrath and Deschamps scored for Arnprior in the second period as they erased a 1-0 Stittsville lead. The victory gives Arnprior 14 points, the same as Shawville, three ahead of Almonte. The Packers have two home games this weekend, hosting Almonte Friday, Nov. 14 at 8 p.m. at the Nick Smith Centre and Perth at 2:30 Sunday, Nov. 16. After losing 13 straight to start the season, Perth has won three straight as the Valley division race tightens.

dominant role all weekend, was named the game’s first star as he made 32 of 33 saves in the Packer net. Arnprior unleashed a balanced attack, with Robert Darnowski scoring twice and Curtis Foster, Patrick McGrath, Luc Deschamps, Chris Marchand and Liam Killeen adding singles. Deschamps, named the game’s second star, added four assists. Arnprior built up 2-0 and 5-1 period leads for the win. The next night, Arnprior earned a 5-4 shootout home win over the Renfrew Timberwolves, who are sitting in second place in the Valley division. Casey Doner scored his second goal of the game at 5:34 of the third period to pull Arnprior into a 4-4 tie. Then he scored the deciding goal in the shootout (Dallas Farr has the other one) to give the Packers the win. Arnprior was full credit for the win, outshooting Renfrew 42-27. The power-play again played a role as the Packers scored three goals with the man advantage and kept Renfrew off the scoresheet

second period scoring at the 12:27 mark, assisted by Boden Zvonarich and Laura Graham. Braeden Broome scored a power play goal at the 3:07 mark of the second and Ryan McCormick ended the second period with an unassisted goal. West Carleton was determined to score and kept shooting until they scored at the 2:18 mark of the third period. GRAHAM IN SPOTLIGHT

This week’s look is at the team highlights Laura Graham. A goaltender who came to the team from the Arnprior Aces of the National Capital Woman’s Hockey League, Laura has been in net since her days as a novice player. Laura is a real team player and

with the Packers shorthanded for the West Carleton game she volunteered to play a forward position instead of her usual goaltending job. Laura gave it her best and assisted on two of the four goals. You could tell that Laura grew up with brothers. Two of the West Carleton Players took her into the corner to show who was boss and the boys came out worst for wear all the while Laura was smiling and having fun - an important aspect of our game. Packers manager Doug Heeney says the Packers would like to see more of the girls transition to the Juvenile game. Women’s league hockey ends at age 18 and Juvenile gives them a place to play non-contact until age 21.

Thank you for your “Vote” of confidence in this year’s election. I look forward to serving you for the next four years.

Sports - It was a classic Arnprior District High SchoolRenfrew Collegiate rivalry that went right to three games in the senior division basketball final. Meanwhile, the ADHS junior girls beat Opeongo High School two straight in their final to wrap up an undefeated season. Arnprior won the first game at home 41-25 and in the second game at Opeongo, ADHS won 45-34. Final game high scorers were Sydney Moore (13) and Sidney Friske (12). The series win qualified the juniors to play at EOSSAA this Wednesday (after press deadline). In senior action, after losing the first game to RCI 5949, ADHS won a thrilling 45-44 overtime victory on their home court Nov. 6. Then last Friday, Arnprior lost the deciding game 54-48 in Renfrew. High scorers in the games were Emma Shoveller and Mikeala Appleby. Though they lost that series, Arnprior still qualifies for EOSSAA and will travel to Carleton Place this week for that tournament.

Arnprior loses junior, senior football title games to Almonte Tiffany Lepack

tlepack@perfprint.ca

Sports – Heartbreaking. In two tough games, the Arnprior and District High School junior and senior Redmen were shut out of the Lanark-Renfrew High School Football championships on Friday, Nov. 14. The Redmen teams travelled to Almonte to face the Almonte and District High School Thunderbolts. In senior action, it looked good

for Arnprior as ADHS up 16-0 at the end of the half. On the first offensive play for the Redmen, Thomas McMann scored a touchdown for Arnprior and later in the half, Carter Wilson scored a touchdown on a one-yard drive, kicked the extra point and also had a field goal. Unfortunately, that was all that Arnprior could put on the scoreboard, as perennial football powerhouse Almonte exploded out of the gates in the second half with five unanswered touchdowns to

win 35-16. Arnprior coach Steven Staye was proud of his team. “We got to put points on the board. Almonte played well, they got behind early 16-0 and they came back and played a four-quarter game,” said Staye. After the game, Staye focused on the Redmen’s Renfrew County championship season. “I’m pretty happy with the guys over the entire season,” said Staye. “This is pretty success-

ful season for us considering last year we didn’t make it out of Renfrew County, so we are pretty happy to be the Renfrew County champs this year.” Almonte coach Brian Sonnenburg called Arnprior a good team. “They pass the ball really well … Arnprior is a good team and well coached, but our guys were just a little bit better in the second half,” he said.

The junior Redmen started off well but could not contain the powerful Thunderbolts as Almonte claimed the title with a convincing 61-7 victory. “Arnprior came out tough, but we stuck to our game plan,” said Almonte coach Don Hickey. Arnprior’s only touchdown came from Hayden Tripp who ran the ball in for 20 yards on the opening offensive drive. From then on, it was all Almonte. Both Almonte teams now travel to Kingston for the Eastern Ontario Secondary School Athletics Association championship games on this Friday, Nov. 14.

Aces bring home gold This weekend the Upper Ottawa Valley Minor Bantam Aces brought home the Championship from the Bring Your AA Game Tournament in Pickering. Finishing second in round-robin play, the Aces advanced to an exhilarating semi-final where goaltender Zachary Martel backstopped the semi-final shootout win against the Stouffville Clippers. Aces defenceman Matthew Unrau came up with the game-winning goal to advance the Aces to the final, with helpers from Kolby Lister and Stewart. (Lister played all his minor hockey career in Arnprior, except last year when he wound up in Renfrew after boundary lines were redrawn.) The tournament’s top seeded team, Ajax Knights, fell to the Aces in an 8-0 final. Goaltender Jacob Miller came up with the shutout. Two goals were pocketed by Quinn and Kuehl, along with singles by Greer, Neville, Stewart and Unrau.

New TD branch manager Regine Verdon joins veterans at the branch Friday.

Students and staff at Arnprior District High School paid tribute to Canada’s war heroes with several special presentations in the school library last week. Events included appearances by several local veterans who spoke to students about their experiences. Arnprior and McNabBraeside Archives archivist Laurie Dougherty talked to students about Arnprior’s role in the war. Students Paula Meek, left, and Emily Croft, made presentations about their grandfathers’ war experiences. Meek focused on her great grandfather John Quinn Meek and grandfather William Hill Meek, and Croft about her grandpa John Frank ‘Jack’ Darlow.

Audrey sheds new light on value, beauty of family kitchen

Community – My sister Audrey was the one I always went to if I needed the answer to a question. Mother once said she was “wiser beyond her years,” whatever that meant. All I knew was that she could pretty well satisfy my curiosity on just about any subject. And so it was one day, after I had spent a glorious afternoon at my little friend Joyce Francis’ house, that I asked Audrey why we never used our parlour, but everything we did, from eating, to playing games, to just sitting around doing our own thing, we were always in the kitchen?  “First of all” she said, without giving it more than a few seconds thought, “the parlour is too small to hold all of us, there is no big table there, and there is only one horsehair-filled settee and a couple twig chairs to sit on, and besides we close it up when winter comes because there is no way to get heat into the room.”

She paused for only a few seconds, “and besides, our kitchen is the nicest room in the house ... and certainly the warmest.” Well,  that all made perfect sense to me, and I began to see our kitchen in a different light. Everything we needed, other than the beds we slept in, was in that big kitchen, and I looked around and for the first time, really saw the room for what it was. This was where our food was gotten ready for our meals ... Mother’s bake table was beside the back door, close to a shelf Father had put up, covered securely with oilcloth where dishes were washed. There was no sink in the kitchen, but a small pump had been anchored to this shelf, which only rarely produced a dribble. This made us go out to the pump in the yard whenever we needed water, which seemed to me to merit a continuous trip with the granite pail, keeping the reservoir full,

bath water on Saturday nights, wash water for Mondays. Two small pails were continually replenished for hand-washing on the bench by the back door, and one on the oil-cloth covered shelf for drinking and cooking. On the back wall beside the summer kitchen door was the wood box, close to the Findlay Oval. Standing behind the cook stove was a threesided tin affair, which was there to supposedly keep the heat of the stove from setting the wall on fire, and burning the place to the ground. And there was the door leading to Mother and Father’s small bedroom, a room which Mother once said was smaller than the broom closet she had in New York. The kitchen took a corner then, and there sat the big oak Barnett Ice Box, kitty-corner, which I thought gave the kitchen a nice touch. And then a long wall, broken up by a window looking out onto the grape arbour, held

the old pine table, long enough to sit a dozen people. A bench, just as long as the table, sat under the window, and provided seating for the brothers at meal time. More chairs than we needed sat around the rest of the table. This was the table that had more useful purposes than any other piece of furniture in the old log house. We ate at it, neighbours played euchre on it at the Saturday night house parties, we five children sat at it at night with two coal oil lamps, one at each end. Mother wrote in her diaries there, Audrey and I worked our way through Eaton’s catalogue, and my three brothers carved, played cards, whittled, and yes, fought like tigers. A flat pine door, which was never opened, led to the back room upstairs, whose only purpose it seemed to me was to offer me a smooth surface to draw on with stubs of chalk, and with orders that it had to be washed off when I was finished. Another flat wall held Mother’s bake cupboard, an invention I thought was right up there with electric lights, and a real bathtub. This cupboard had a place for flour which seemed to be suspended from somewhere inside, and a door affair which could be rolled up like a wad of paper, vanishing into goodness knows where

when she needed something out of the doors. Topping off the whole elegance of this cupboard was a white enamelled surface that could be pulled out to make the work surface larger. I thought that cupboard was one of the best pieces of furniture in the entire house! Like every other kitchen I ever went into in Northcote, there was a creton couch, close to the stove. It served as a bed for my sister Audrey and me when we had company and had to give up ours. It was too narrow to sleep side-byside, so we had to sleep end-to-end, which didn’t please either of us one bit! It would have made sense for Father to have his noon nap on the couch, but he preferred an old rocking chair, that no one sat in but him. Wainscotting circled the kitchen, and the only other window looked out onto the side yard with a ledge wide enough where Mother could put her geranium pots, when she brought them in in the fall. Braided mats of every shape and size covered the kitchen floor in the winter. My sister Audrey was right. Again! The kitchen was the nicest room in that old log house. And certainly the room that got the most use. It was a place for family fun, a place to fill our bellies, a room where neighbours were greeted, and where the big granite tea pot was always on the back of the stove. There was a coziness there, even on the coldest night, and at a very young age, I knew that the warmth I felt in that old kitchen didn’t come from the Findlay Oval alone.

Riley Harrington, son of Arnprior Braeside McNab Seniors At Home Program executive director Dennis Harrington, came to work with his dad on Wednesday, Nov. 5 as part of the ‘Take our kids to work day’.  Riley, third from left, participates in the agency’s development committee meeting along with, from left, Teresa Kelly, Phyllis Doherty-Hereford, his father (front) and Nancy Paquette.

Symposium helps seniors with self-sufficiency The Symposium, which was held at the Nick Smith Centre in Arnprior, was an effort to provide a venue to highlight the many local services that are available. “Just knowing what is available is helpful,” said Gallant, who helped sponsor the event. She thanked the Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors At Home Program and all the participants from the local community who participated in the symposium. In addition to a wide variety of community booths from such groups as St. John Ambulance, the Grove, Island View, Christine’s Kitchen, Arnprior Humane Society (seniors pets for seniors) and the Arthritis Society, attendees of the sympo-

sium were able to listen to a series of demonstrations from presenters including the OPP senior fraud protection squad, County of Renfrew Paramedic Service and the Consumer Protection Ontario office. “Canada’s population is in the process of a fundamental demographic shift,” noted Gallant. “This year, over 6 million Canadians were aged 65 and older. By 2030, that number will grow to over 9.5 million, representing 23 per cent of all Canadians. “We are living longer and staying active in life longer. Our government is taking the right steps now to meet the challenge of caring for an aging population in the future,” maintained Gallant.

Community – By the time this is read, we’ll be into mid-November and the Candlelight Vigil by the Cadets and the Remembrance Day service at the cenotaph will be over. Another year will be behind us. Let’s not put away the poppies and forget until next November. Yes, put the poppies away but don’t forget. Keep our veterans in your hearts and minds. Remember them always. Don’t ever forget why they do what they do. It’s for you and yours and this great country. Believe, because they do. Many, many thanks to everyone who supported the cadets with their Candlelight

Walk and coming out again for the cenotaph service on Tuesday. It’s always a pleasure to see so many people arrive to take part in this annual service regardless of the day or weather. As of the past Sunday, we were still one of the few places in the valley that didn’t have real lasting snow. I’m not complaining, of course. It is coming for sure, but as I write this … not yet! Christmas is coming faster than we can imagine and along with it all the great holiday lunches, teas, and craft sales and bake sales, and as always the great Arnprior Santa Claus Parade organized by volunteers at the Legion and supported by ever so many businesses and organizations in town. The parade gets bigger and bigger every year. People come from all around the Val-

ley for this great event. Let’s just hope very strongly that it is not as cold as last year. That was wicked cold. Watch again in next week’s paper for all the exact times and routes for the parade. We must apologize that we are unable to go down more streets in town, but the floats are getting bigger and better every year and they can’t make all those tight turns very easily. Don’t forget to bring along a little something for the food bank. It’s a tough time of the year for a lot of people, so we must help each other. Well, this seems short if not so sweet this week, but I like to keep you up on all the happenings. So keep well, come to the Legion often, love to see you (don’t forget your membership) and keep smilin’ … it makes people wonder what you’ve been up to.

Community – A Seniors Symposium held in Arnprior Oct. 24 played a role in helping local senior citizens be more selfsufficient, says RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant. “Community support plays a major role in assisting seniors to be selfsufficient and remain in their homes as long as possible,” said Gallant in a news release. “Everybody wins, particularly the seniors, the longer they are able to enjoy the comfort of familiar surroundings. “If there was one thing I took home from the Arnprior Symposium, it was just how much we are a caring community. I can think of no better place to grow old than the Upper Ottawa Valley.”

36 Arnprior Chronicle-Guide - Thursday, November 13, 2014

Returning West African travellers asked to contact Public Health News – The Renfrew County and District Health Unit (RCDHU) is taking steps to find out if are any people in the area who have had possible contact with the Ebola virus. In a news release last week, the health unit is asking all persons in this area who have recently travelled in the West African countries of Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone to call 613-580-6744 within 12 hours of arrival for confidential assessment and monitoring. The same goes for anyone who believes they have been in contact with someone with Ebola virus disease. The phone line is accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Calls will be answered by Ottawa Public Health (OPH) and residents of Renfrew County and District will then be referred to the Renfrew County and District Health Unit. This and other moves by government officials, both in Canada and the U.S., in response to the Ebola scare

has prompted humanitarian officials to express concern that it may deter groups from sending health care and missionary support to the African countries. The local health unit notes there has never been a confirmed case of Ebola in Canada and the risk to Renfrew County and District residents remains very low. However, as part of proactive efforts to minimize any risk to health care workers and the public, Ontario health units are asking all returning travellers from the affected countries to call the above number within 12 hours upon arrival. “Such notification will enable Public Health professionals to support travellers from Ebola-affected areas with advice and, if needed, early identification of symptoms and diagnosis of Ebola in order to provide the best medical care,” says the healh unit release. “It is important to remember that Ebola does not spread easily from person to person,”

stresses the release. “It is only spread by contact with infected body fluids and not through casual contact. “If a person becomes infected, symptoms appear in two to 21 days. “Infected persons are not contagious to others until symptoms develop and contagiousness increases as illness progresses.” INFO

For information regarding travel notices, visit the Public Health Agency of Canada Travel Health Notices website. For general information on Ebola, visit the Public Health Ontario, Public Health Agency of Canada, World Health Organization or U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention websites. Information is also available by visiting www.rcdhu. com or calling the RCDHU Health Info Line at 613-7358666.

Arnprior Parkinson group honours its founding members News – The Parkinson Society’s Arnprior Support Group has dedicated a park bench along the town’s scenic waterfront to its founding members. Parkinson Society Eastern Ontario CEO Dennise Taylor-Gilhen attended the group’s October meeting and accompanied members to see the bench, which is located along the trail along the Madawaska River. The bench is not far from the Arnprior Library, where the support group meets in the second Wednesday of each month at 1:30 p.m. Delores Parsons, who was the driving force behind founding the group in 2000 with her late husband Robert, attended the ceremony. The park bench includes a dedication plaque that says: “In memory of our courageous loved ones.” There are also plaques with six names of early members: Elizabeth ‘Betty’ Lapierre, Catharine Straathof, William ‘Bill’ Sly, Allan Scarff, Russell Hicks and Robert Parsons. “It’s a great tribute … and a beautiful spot,” said Taylor-Gilhen. She praised the Arnprior group for being one of the area’s most active chapters in promoting awareness of Parkinson’s disease and providing support for members For more information about the support group or the Parkinson’s Society, visit parkinsons.ca.

Father John Bruchat tells students at the renaming of their school to St. John XXIII is highly appropriate as the late pope was a strong believer in the value of education.

John XXIII celebrates 50th birthday with special renaming celebration News - After 50 years of learning, sharing and growing in Arnprior, one of the Renfrew County Catholic schools has a new name - St. John XXIII. Thursday, Oct. 9 marked the milestone anniversary celebrations and served as the perfect opportunity to officially rename the school in honour of the canonization of Pope John XXIII. Local dignitaries and representatives from the school board attended the special afternoon blessing and the school held an open house later in the evening. Father John Burchat told the students

that it was very fitting that their school was named after the Catholic leader who knew the importance of education. Principal designate Jane Kenny-Chaput acted as emcee for the ceremony. The students in the schools’ choir performed throughout the service and artifacts from each class were presented as part of the celebration. Readings were made by students Adam McCuaig, Maddie Develin and Haven Caster. Matthew Richard, Shay-Lyn Kluke, Keandra O’Brien and Damen Gauthier read

the Prayers of the Faithful. Local RCCDSB Trustee Andy Bray thanked all of the principals, teachers and staff who have been a part of the 50-year history of John XXIII for their commitment to “creating a place of faith-based learning for our families.” “You have all shared in our history and now in our future,” he added. Bob Michaud, chair of the Board of Trustees, said the 50th anniversary is a testament to the success of all past and present educators.

Credit Union grant a building block for students News – A Northern Credit Union grant is helping young St. John XXIII students learn through using LEGO. The assistance is enhancing student engagement in Shannon Rebertz’s senior KindergartenGrade 1 class by providing LEGO and related materials to nurture and develop the student’s interests. In a letter requesting the help, Rebertz explained her class is very interested in building and responds well to hands-on learning. As a result, she anticipated buying about $180 worth of LEGO to assist the students in creating a variety of items, including models of local buildings as part of the Grade 1 social studies curriculum. “Just imagine, a LEGO Northern Credit Union building,” she wrote. As the students are not always able to keep their creations past their ‘tidy-up’ time, the class was also seeking to buy a $350 IPAD mini to allow them to document their final product, as well as take photographs of it during its development. The IPAD mini would also provide several other hands-on learning experiences, Rebertz added. She noted that there are several education apps that allow students to manipulate letters and sounds in words or to move numbers around to assist them with solving number problems. When several Northern Credit Union officials JOHN CARTER/METROLAND visited Rebertz’s class recently, students pre- Northern Credit Union manager Julie Brown (with a thank you card created by the students), delegate chair Wayne Lavallee, and sented them with a thank you card that said the delegates Denis Lacroix, Mark MacKenzie and Ron Carty visited Shannon Rebertz’s senior Kindergarten-Grade 1 class at St. John XXIII LEGO has made their class “even more cool.” school recently to present a grant that will pay for LEGO to help the students learn.

Patio, playground smoking ban extended to go province-wide News – The province is making it even more difficult for smokers to find a place to light up. Changes to the Smoke-Free Ontario Act introduced last week will make it illegal as of Jan. 1 to smoke on bar and restaurant patios, as well as on playgrounds and sports fields. The new regulations also ban the selling of tobacco on university and college campuses. Many municipalities, including Arnprior and Ottawa, already ban smoking in parks. As well, Ottawa banned smoking on patios a couple of years ago. The provincial government’s actions is aimed at limiting smoking in public places, reducing exposure to smoking and making it more difficult for young people to buy tobacco. Preventing youth from starting to use tobacco and protecting them from the harmful effects of smoke supports Ontario’s goal to have the lowest smoking rate in the country. Ontario’s smoking rate fell from 24.5 per cent in 2000 to 18.1 per cent in 2013, representing 332,361 fewer smokers. The decrease is a money-saver for the government. However, tobacco-related disease still costs Ontario’s health care system an estimated $2.2 billion in direct costs and an additional $5.3 billion in indirect costs such as lost productivity. Each year, tobacco claims 13,000 lives in Ontario — equivalent to 36 lives every day. “If we prevent youth from taking up smoking in the first place, that will mean fewer smokers and healthier Ontarians,” said Associate Minister of Health and Long-Term Care Dipika Damerla. “We need to do everything we can to prevent all Ontarians from the harmful effects of second-hand smoke.”

The moves have met with praise in the health-care field. “We applaud the government of Ontario for introducing these courageous new tobacco control measures that send a clear message that we need to continue to work together against the number one cause of preventable disease, death and cancer in this province,” said Rowena Pinto of the Ontario division of the Canadian Cancer Society. While the regulations are a step in the right direction, the society encourages the government to keep it going by reintroducing and swiftly passing legislation to ban all flavoured tobacco products including menthol in Ontario. The cancer society points out that studies show nearly all smokers start using tobacco before the age of 18. The proposed regulations will help prevent youth smoking and protect Ontarians from exposure to second-hand smoke, it says. A recent study, funded in part by the Canadian Cancer Society, has found that individuals who are attempting to quit smoking are more likely to relapse when exposed to smoking on patios. The Ontario Dental Association (ODA) also expressed its support for the proposed regulations. “As the experts in oral health care, dentists see the damage tobacco does to the mouth and teeth every day,” said ODA president Dr. Gerald Smith in a news release. Seventy-five per cent of gum disease in adults may be caused by smoking and tobacco products have also been proven to cause tooth loss and oral cancers,” says the association, adding that smokers also tend to suffer from bad breath, stained teeth and dry mouth.

In the Chest Nuts’ first race, their time was just a shade over three minutes. The ladies knew they could do better, and did in the next three races in very respectable times of 2:56, 2:54, and 2:50, thus achieving their goal of racing 500 metres in less than three minutes. With a fantastic venue,

So, you think you can’t dance? Think again of dance tunes being used has kept expanding to reflect the times and current trends.  The days are long gone when this dance form centred mainly around country music. From over a decade ago, through to the present time, several other music genres have also played increasingly important roles on the line dance scene, including Zumba, western-swing, waltz, samba, salsa, rhumba, reggae, nightclub, mambo, jive, jazz, Gangnam-style, fox-trot, disco, Celtic, Calypso, Bachata and other modern trends. Moreover, both instructors confirm this type of dancing is no longer restricted to being performed in lines only - many are done in circles, contra-formations, diamonds, squares and other patterns. The benefits of this dance form are many, says Chatterton. In promoting line dancing, she continues to emphasize that it is truly an activity that is “funto-do” as well as being “goodfor-you.” As qualified educators, both Chatterton and Penno appreciate the positive effects and results of this “dynamic combination.” Line dancing is well-known for its beneficial aerobic content, but in addition it delivers a weight-bearing component, recognized for its importance in developing and maintaining muscle-tone.  To top it all, “brain-training” is also well-covered through learning and repeating the various sequential patterns continually presented, as participants progress through the programs, notes Chatterton. “This activity is ideal for all ages and is suitable, as

Line-dancers perform at Pakenham’s Stewart Community Centre for a local-social held by the Hy-Liners. As the social was held Oct. 30, several Halloween costumes were featured. Dancers came from Arnprior, Almonte, Carleton Place, Kanata, Kinburn, Pakenham, Waba, White Lake and Woodlawn. There will be other local-socials held this winter and next spring. well, for both genders,” she says. “It rates high in its accessibility to all who are interested, as no equipment is needed. “Moreover, an important point for everyone who is new to dancing, is the fact that beginner/novice programs are available, which means no previous experience is needed. Partners are welcome, but unlike some other danceforms, having a partner is not a requirement for participation.” The Hy-Liners were invited to participate on Oct. 24 in a Seniors’ Symposium co-hosted at the Nick Smith Centre by Arnprior-Braeside-McNab Seniors At Home Program along with Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant. Some members of the dance group performed selected numbers for a very appreciative audience. In her oral presentation, Chatterton highlighted the physical and mental benefits of this dance-form, which is providing so much enjoy-

ment to participants in Arnprior and area. “So, is it time for you to add this activity to your exercise routines?” she asks. “You bet!” Both instructors agree and invite all interested people to check with them for an appropriate time to drop by and enjoy a visit at one of their sessions. This will give a first-hand opportunity to learn

what is involved when they participate in this very popular dance form. Everyone is invited to pick a program or two and then contact the enthusiastic instructors for details regarding the following days and sites: Monday at the Nick Smith Centre in Arnprior (two sessions), the Old Town Hall in Almonte, and Horton Community Centre; Tuesday at

Calabogie; Wednesday at the Carambeck Community Centre in Carleton Place; and Thursday at the Darling-White Lake Community Centre, Almonte Community Centre, Stewart Community Centre in Pakenham, and Arnprior’s Quality Inn.

Arts – Think you can’t dance? Well, the news is good, yes, you can. And we’re willing to prove it, says Hyacinth Chatterton, speaking for Valerie Penno and herself, both active line dance instructors in Arnprior and environs. Line dance steps are very straightforward to learn, she says, adding that the interesting patterning and sequencing involved will stay with you ‘forever-and-a-day’. Through several local and nearby recreation centres, Chatterton offers three beginner/novice classes and three classes at the intermediate level – this reflects an increase of two new classes this term. Her groups use the collective name of ‘The Hy-Liners’. Penno currently instructs one beginner class, plus two others with mixed level participants. With one new class this season, she has also shown increased participation in her group, called ‘The Valley-Booters’. Both instructors agree that a huge bonus for current as well as would-be dancers in the area is the fact  this form of dancing is very accessible. There are nine sessions available each week at various hours of the day or in the evening: Almonte in the afternoon and evening; Arnprior in the noon, afternoon, and evening; Calabogie in the evening; Carleton Place in the afternoon; Horton in the evening; Pakenham in the afternoon (alternating with Almonte); and White Lake in the morning. Chatterton and Penno also point out that the variety

Finding happiness in Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche family home Liz Campbell Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche Arnprior

Community - A couple of months ago I had the privilege of telling you about a special man â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Bob Delahaye who lives in the Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche family home. This article is about another special man, Pat Ryan, who lives in our Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche family home, supported by Debbie and Ellard Rueckwald. Debbie would like to tell you this about Pat: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pat has been a member of Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche Arnprior for the past 19 years. He is a quiet, gentle man. Pat appreciates that in Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche he is loved and valued for who he is. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is someone who likes to spend time doing quiet activities like fishing, walking, going out for coffee or ice cream, and listening to music through his headphones. Pat likes watching NHL hockey games live or on TV â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he is a Montreal Canadiens fan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pat loves the old time country songs; he will even sing along sometimes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Patâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Core Gift is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;encouraging peace and harmony in othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. He does this by being a gentle companion, being aware of his surroundings and

spending time doing quiet activities â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Pat would be your best companion.â&#x20AC;? Patâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sister, Rita Racicot, also writes about Patâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life in Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being a part of the Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche community has been and continues to be a wonderful and positive experience for Pat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pat has experienced a lot of personal growth since becoming a part of the community. The Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche community and the family home are helping Pat to know that he has talents and skills and that he can contribute to the community. This in turn has given him more self-confidence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche helps Pat to develop his skills and talents, helps him to set goals and meet those goals. For example, he currently delivers papers which he really enjoys. He also participates in sports, such as bowling, which is an important part of his life.

see how well he interacts with other members of the community. I think these relationships contribute to his health (Pat enjoys very good health) and well-being. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pat is generally a fairly quiet person, but through his actions and communication I know he is content with his life. He is relaxed, feels secure and confident. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was very happy when I heard that Debbie and her husband were going to open their home and their lives to two core members. Having known Debbie from the other home where Pat was living, I knew it would be a good match. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The family home is giving Pat the opportunity to live in a family setting where he gets support and guidance tailored to his needs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In addition, the family home provides Pat with consistency regarding the people giving the support and I think that adds more stability in his life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am very pleased with how Pat is doing in the family home. Debbie and her husband Ellard have been wonderful in making Pat part of their family. There is a strong sense of belonging for Pat in the home and a family atmosphere. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He contributes to the household

with things like preparing the evening meal and shopping, and attends church and community events with the Rueckwalds. The family home does a great job of making Pat feel comfortable, listening to his wishes and helping him to realize his dreams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Things that are important to him are with him in the home, for example, hockey memorabilia. Pat takes a great interest in hockey, especially the Montreal Canadiens, and loves listening to music. When he wants some down time, he knows he can go somewhere quiet in the house and listen to music. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is very much a part of the family traditions in the home like gathering around the television to watch a favourite show with some food to snack on and celebrating special occasions like birthdays.â&#x20AC;? Both Pat and Bob continue to bring joy and a deepened sense of family to the Rueckwalds. If you wish to join Lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Arche in one of its many community activities and meet more members of the community, you are welcome to come on out to our Music Club, which meets next on Tuesday, Nov. 25 in de Renzy Hall in the basement of the Presbyterian Church at 3:30 p.m.

WOW!!! today you would be 73....but you have been gone for 30...wonder what you would be like...still the ladies man..lovin’ the dance... enjoying those stogies...which reminds me, that is what they used to call you--was Stogie. I awoke this morning, the light was dim, And in my heart I felt for him. In these past few days I’ve searched my soul For death had come to take it’s toll. My memories are all good of this Friend of mine. I’ll never forget him and will toast him with wine. His smiling face as he arrived each day Driving the green machine. What can I say? His blue jeans and boots won`t walk these halls, But his memory will stay for one, for all. A fisherman he wasn’t a sportsman at all, Just a man for the ladies summer and fall. One hear finally drew him and tamed this wild man This was the one as he walked holding her hand. I’ve known this man for many a year, and even tossed back one or two beer. Whether working or playing, he seemed so alive. Garnie knew how to live but ran out of time. So ‘til the day comes when we meet again, All I can say is ‘Goodbye My Friend’ Sure do miss you Dad......

Joseph LaPointe It is with a great sadness we announce the sudden passing of Joseph LaPointe on Friday, October 31st, 2014. Joe was born in Campbellton NB on April 14th 1947, and lived in Quebec until 1954 when he moved to Halifax NS, where he lived until he joined the Black Watch in 1964. In 1966 he transferred careers and joined the RCAF as an Areo Engine Tech, in 1974 he again transferred careers and became a Flight Engineer. He was a proud member of the RCAF for 36 and a half years. During his time in the military he spent time in many provinces, many countries and in the air, which was one of his favorite places to be. After retiring from the military he became a commissionaire, in which recently was honored for 12 years of service. Joe was overflowing with life and love. He was enthusiastic and boisterous and loved to be surrounded with family and friends whether at home or at the campsite. He touched everyone he knew and was a very caring and compassionate person. The most important part of Joe’s life was his Grandchildren he cherished every visit and every phone call. Joe was married to Pauline LaPointe (Roussy) on November 30, 1968 ; they would have been married 47 years. Joe is survived by his two children, Michael LaPointe and his wife Mary, Nicole Wyant and her husband Wayne; his 3 grandsons Robbie, Jakob and Joshua; and the rest of his family and friends.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) can arrive with winter Your invitation Ian Harris Weight management, wellness and nutrition

Opinion – As defined by the Mayo Clinic, Seasonal affective disorder (SAD) is a type of depression that’s related to changes in seasons. SAD begins and ends at about the same times every year. If you’re like most people with SAD, your symptoms start in the fall and continue into the winter months, sapping your energy and making you feel moody. Less often, SAD causes depression in the spring or early summer. Treatment for SAD may include light therapy (phototherapy), psychotherapy and medications. In Canada SAD affects approximately 15 to 18 per cent of the population. The symptoms of SAD usually occur as early as of the age of 20. Women tend to be affected by the symptoms of SAD more so the men. Symptoms specific to winter-onset SAD, sometimes called winter depression, may include weight gain; irritability; oversleeping; tiredness or low energy; hypersensitivity to rejection; problems getting along with other people; heavy, ‘leaden’ feeling in the arms or legs; and appetite changes, especially a craving for foods high in simple (sugary) carbohydrates. The specific cause of seasonal affective disorder remains unknown. However, some factors that

may come into play include: • Your biological clock (circadian rhythm) - The reduced level of sunlight in fall and winter may cause winter-onset SAD. This decrease in sunlight may disrupt your body’s internal clock and lead to feelings of depression. • Serotonin levels - A drop in serotonin, a brain chemical (neurotransmitter) that affects mood, might play a role in SAD. Reduced sunlight can cause a drop in serotonin that may trigger depression. • Melatonin levels - The change in season can disrupt the balance of the body’s level of melatonin, which plays a role in sleep patterns and mood. Treatment may include antidepressants or for a more natural recommendation light therapy. Light therapy is thought to affect brain chemicals linked to mood, easing SAD symptoms. Using a light therapy box may also help with other types of depression, sleep disorders and other conditions. Light therapy is also known as bright light therapy or phototherapy. During light therapy, you sit or work near a device called a light therapy box. The box gives off bright light that mimics natural outdoor light. In addition to light therapy, try the following lifestyle changes: • Sit closer to bright windows while at home or in the office. • Take a vacation - If affordable, take a winter

ARNPRIOR'S HISTORIC THEATRE

vacation in a sunny, warm location. • Make your environment sunnier and brighter by opening blinds, trimming tree branches that block sunlight or by adding skylights to your home. • Exercise regularly - Exercise and other types of physical activity help relieve stress and anxiety, both of which can increase SAD symptoms. Being more fit can make you feel better about yourself, too, which can lift your mood • Get outside - Take a long walk, eat lunch at a nearby park, or simply sit on a bench and soak up the sun. Even on cold or cloudy days, outdoor light can help especially if you spend some time outside within two hours of getting up in the morning There’s nothing worse than feeling SAD. If you feel down for days at a time and can’t get motivated to do activities you normally enjoy, see your family physician. This is especially important if your sleep patterns and appetite have changed or if you feel hopeless, have thoughts of suicide or turn to alcohol or drugs for comfort and/or relaxation.

to Brechin Castle Rose MacLaren Celtic Heritage Society

Community - You are cordially invited to enjoy the phenomenally delightful pleasures of partaking in the delicious foods of a medieval feast in the great hall of Brechin castle (Amprior Legion). Close your eyes and picture this castle on a rock bluff above the River Southesk on the site of an older fortress. Picture the beauty of this 55,000-acre estate with the scenic gardens, forests and farm land of Angus County. For the hunters in our midst, picture yourself hunting the mighty stag in the carefully tended forests with the Laird of Brechin. Like the land grant given to the Laird of McNab in present day Ontario, which included Arnprior, White Lake, Burnstown, Glasgow Station and Lochwinnoch to the Ottawa and Madawaska rivers, Brechin’s large acreage incorporates some of the finest private gardens in Scotland. Since most of us in this area can trace our roots to our Celtic heritage, come to celebrate with us as our ancestors did. As with all medieval feasts in the middle ages designed to celebrate occasions of great excess in all areas from food to pageantry, the feast on Nov. 30 is just such an occasion. We are celebrating the harvest as well as the Scottish patron saint, St. Andrew. Imagine corning to this beautiful castle and sitting in the great hall with other members of the castle community and partaking of a great feast as did our ancestors. Food served on bread trenchers by the monks of the abbey near the castle; music performed by minstrels, troubadours, and pipers; the cavorting of mummers and court jesters. Enjoy eating the foods of our ancestors as they did with their hands and a dirk. Game pie from the forest of Brechin Castle, crowdy and ale soup, leg of cock from the castle’s farms, roastitt meats and vegetables from Brechin gardens, and top it off with the delightful sweets and tarts direct from the old castle kitchen. As you enjoy the food, prepare to meet the ghosts of the castle. James Carnegie, a former laird well versed in black arts, which resulted in his soul being doomed to travel in a black coach pulled by six black horses for eternity. Or meet Jock Barefoot, who was hung for breaking off a branch of the laird’s favourite tree. If you would like to dress up, by all means do so. Make your own costume or contact Dianne Rochon in Arnprior (613-623-8891). Tickets cost $30 each or two for $50 and are available at Jim’s Restaurant in Arnprior or by calling 613-6233614 or 613-432-6271.
