‘Exciting’ announcement to be part of opening ceremonies SHERRY HAAIMA shaaima@msn.com

It’s all systems go for the 156th Arnprior Agricultural Society Fair Aug. 5 to 8 and organizers are hoping the revamped event will be one to remember.

Agricultural Society president Jeff Desarmia says the board has some exciting news to share with the community.

Tonight’s opening ceremonies at 6 p.m. include a special announcement, says Desarmia.

“We’ll be introducing something that solidifies the stability of the Arnprior Agricultural Society fairgrounds staying as fairgrounds,” he says.

He hopes to dispel speculation the land will Dorothy van Leur of Arnprior with one of her many Arnprior Fair exhibits, a dress made for Photo by John Carter be turned into a housing development, says De- her by her mother in 1958.

The temporary centrifuge that allowed the Arnprior sewage plant to start dewatering sludge again arrived last Thursday, even quicker than anticipated by staff and council. The equipment will run for at least two months while the plant’s machine is repaired.

Continued from front The reports notes staff has a “high level of confidence” Andritz can repair the machine and notes it will provide a six-month warranty on the work.

“It is staff ’s view that, all things considered, the Andritz option provides the most certainty and least risk in terms of the unit being repaired …”

The machine might be damaged too significantly for repairs to be machined, as Badham’s is proposing, said Collins.

Badham is upset council made the decision before seeing the full proposal on how his company would tackle the

repairs. He points out he examined the damaged centrifuge July 21, a week after it broke down, at the request of town staff.

Based on that inspection, he formulated a detailed proposal, quoting a maximum price of $22,500. Badham’s has 29 years of experience in Arnprior and first-hand knowledge of equipment at the sewage plant, he says.

However, unaware the special council meeting was scheduled for 8 a.m., his report wasn’t hand-delivered to town hall until 9:30 a.m. on that Thursday, he adds. By that time council had passed a resolution to enter into an

agreement with Andritz to remove, crate and ship the damaged part of the centrifuge to the company’s Saskatoon plant for repair and balancing. Andritz will provide a cost estimate once it receives the unit.

Meanwhile, the temporary centrifuge approved by council July 26 arrived July 29 and has alleviated the backlog of sludge at the plant.

Collins noted funding for the repairs will come from the wastewater reserve. The unexpected expenses for the repairs and leasing the temporary plant will impact the 2010 budget, she told council.

Council shies away from banning politics on town property JOHN CARTER john.carter@metroland.com

Eric Burton’s campaign barbecue went ahead Saturday and Doug Smith’s advertising is still being run on the Think Out Loud screen at the Nick Smith Centre, after council decided against banning all political activities and messages on municipal property.

The majority of council (Mayor Terry Gibeau and Coun. Eric Burton were absent) agreed at its committee-of-the-whole meeting July 26 that proposals to prohibit campaign activities in town buildings and parks is going too far. However, councillors agreed the town’s Use of Corporate Resources for Election Purposes policy should be modified to include candidates as well as sitting council members in any prohibitions already in the bylaw.

Council is expected to make a final decision at its Aug. 9 meeting.

Town clerk Jacquie Farrow-Lawrence recommended the bylaw be updated and made clearer after being questioned by Smith about the Nick Smith advertising and Burton about using the Robert Simpson Park gazebo for his campaign rally.

She reported municipal advisor Stephen Sellers had suggested some changes.

CAO Larry Donaldson explained council had to decide either that municipal property is no place for electioneering or that if all candidates have the same access, “what’s the problem.”

Reeve Walter Stack suggested the debate was worth having, but it is too far into the election campaign to make changes this year. Coun. Mark Willmer agreed, saying as one who has already declared he is “uncomfortable” about changing the rules.

“As long as there is no favoritism, there’s no reason that candidates shouldn’t be able to rent the hall or gazebo,” he said.

Ted Strike has “It’s done for federal and provincial made it official. elections … and in other municipalities.”

EXHIBITING SUPPORT FOR THE FAIR Entering exhibits in the Arnprior Fair is a labour of love for Dorothy van Leur. The Arnprior resident has persuaded her mother to join her as well as encouraging friends and neighbours to also enter exhibits. A regular fair exhibitor, she shows off some of this year’s entries, which include photographs, sewing, vegetables and antiques. She has a variety of entries in the antique divisions in which items must be at least 50 years old. Among the categories this year are a coal oil lamp, depression glass, kitchen utensil and farm photo, which shows her father in Holland on the farm in 1935 when he was four. Van Leur also enters several baking categories each year. Photo by John Carter

FAIR SUPPORT FOR FOOD BANK It’s a busy time for the Arnprior Agricultural Society with the 156th fair opening tonight but that hasn’t stopped the group from working to support the community. The society recently presented a collection of food items to the Arnprior and District Food Bank. The food was collected at a recent free drive-in movie night at the fairgrounds. On hand for the presentation are, from left, AAS director Scott Rancourt, AAS director Lynn Grinstead, food bank co-coordinator Allan Smith, AAS president Jeff Desarmia and AAS directortreasurer Cathie Tennisco. Fair-goers are asked to bring food donations Thursday evening along with their $5 admission to fill up a pickup truck for the food bank.

Thursday added to fair schedule

Continued from front Included in the changes this year is the addition of Thursday activities to what has in the recent past been a three-day fair. “It’s the first time in 15 years,” says Desarmia. At one time the fair used to be Wednesday to Sunday, he says.

The plan to re-establish Thursday is linked to the society’s need to sign a new contract with the midway company.

“We need to produce numbers through the gate,” says Desarmia.

It is hoped tonight’s Edge Motorsports extreme thrill show will boost attendance.

“This is the 2010 version of the 1980s Hell Drivers,” he says. As well, a wide variety of musical entertainment is planned on the myFM stage.

Arnprior and District Memorial Hospital’s Partners in Caring Foundation thanked three organizations last week for their fundraising efforts.

Jack and Faith’s No Frills presented the foundation with $1,408 raised in its Smile Campaign.

Braeside United Church also stepped up to donate $600 raised from its choir fundraiser. And not to be outdone, the fifth annual Daryle McLellan Memorial Golf Tournament, held July 24, raised $1,500 for the foundation.

The Partners in Caring Foundation is the charitable arm of ADMH and the Grove Nursing Home.

In its expression of appreciation for the donations, the foundation said it is “proud to be affiliated with groups like these who are committed to raising funds in our community to benefit all of us through our community hospital and nursing home.”

Following breath tests at the Arnprior Detachment, an 18year-old Mississippi Mills man was charged with impaired driving, driving over 80 mgs.

He was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew Sept. 15. He was also issued a ticket for driving under age 22 and having a blood alcohol concentration above 0.

EDITORIAL

LETTER

Alcohol, driving don’t mix well at any age

Website rules unfair to nonincumbents To the editor:

I

t is official: anyone aged 21 and under can’t have any alcohol in their system when getting behind the wheel.

Previously, anyone who held a full G licence could have a blood alcohol level of up to 0.05 per cent. As of Aug. 1, that number now only applies to drivers 22 and up.

Young drivers who are caught with any alcohol in their system face an immediate 24-hour suspension of their licence which could last up to 30 days and up to $500 in fines.

Kathryn Windsor of the Renfrew County Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) branch said young people in the area have problems with alcohol because of the small town feel and the proximity to Quebec.

Youths consuming alcohol have been the cause of “a percentage of the accidents happening in this area,” said Windsor.

According to the Ontario Ministry of Transportation, the peak ages of drinking and driving are 19 to 21. New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Manitoba already have similar regulations in place.

Some may argue that this new law is an example of ageism.

Many young drivers are responsible and would be able to handle having a glass of wine and hitting the road responsibly later on.

However, there are many who can’t. And that doesn’t just go for young drivers. Everyone handles their alcohol differently, depending on gender, weight/size, metabolism, etc.

Over the years, countless police reports have come across the news desk about impaired driving. People of all ages, from teens to seniors, have been caught drinking and driving in Renfrew County. What about the over-21 population who can’t seem to handle their alcohol?

Drinking and driving does not seem to be going away anytime fast. It remains a reality, often ending up in tragedy.

Perhaps limiting youths behind the wheel is just the beginning. It may not be a bad idea to start at the 16 to 21 demographic and work up from there.

Alcohol and driving has never been a good mix.

The Town of Arnprior is playing politics in this year’s 2010 municipal election.

The town is required to keep the municipal elections fair and unbiased by law, yet they clearly have turned in favour of the sitting council.

During the second week of July, the Town of Arnprior removed all election candidates fax numbers, email addresses and much more contact information from the town website.

MP stonewalling on river heritage a disservice to riding To the editor: Once again the constituents of Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke have learned their Member of Parliament in the federal government has actually been working against one of our most important industries in our riding, a riding in which she is being paid to represent.

The designation of the Ottawa River to Heritage status, a project in which a number of local people have put a lot of energy and time into and was, I believe, initiated by the late Len Hopkins, is actually being stonewalled by Cheryl Gallant.

This designation would no doubt mean a great deal to our tourist industry, particularly in the Valley and we now find out Ms. Gallant has been playing petty politics with a project that could be having a very positive effect on our local tourist industry.

This is someone who just recently was boasting in her news article how her government was playing such a tremendous role in promoting tourism.

In the past she has led us to believe

her to be an advocate of both this Heritage designation and the revival of the railway service to the Valley, two projects which we have come to learn have received little or no support.

Her claim a provincial cabinet minister sought her assistance to lean on John Baird for his co-operation in the extension of Highway 417 to the Upper Valley, her suggestion by means of a photo-op of her advising Jim Flaherty in his preparation of the recent budget, ‘her bill’ as she referred to it at times on the gun registry, her railing locally against same sex marriage and then standing with her government to maintain the ‘status quo’.

Her recent article in her communiqué as to how the new research lab at AECL will preserve all these jobs, when she knows full well her government is quietly preparing for the breaking up and sale of this important and world leading industry. All smoke and mirrors.

I have lived and been involved politically in a number of ridings over the years, but I have never before been

exposed to a so-called member who has been so persistent and consistent in their attempts to mislead their constituents.

Of course, her only dialogue is through the newspapers where she knows she’s not open for questions or debate. This is an elected member who refuses to dialogue openly where she knows she would be unable to defend her reputation or her views on issues concerning her constituents.

In her most recent communiqué, she once again attempts to impact people with her fear tactics, extolling the inevitable dangers of the Liberal coalition with the ‘separatists’, something that’s not even being considered. Something her own party was involved in a short time ago when Mr. Harper tried unsuccessfully, not once but twice, to seek out a coalition with the ‘BLOC’.

It’s rather refreshing and encouraging to know that even the ‘BLOC’ have “standards and principles” they refuse to abandon.

HOW TIME FLIES Back in January when I regis- confidence in business expantered for the upcoming election a critic said – “it’s ridiculous to be campaigning so soon”. Well.. now time is running out and the election is heading into the finals. Here is what I have been doing for the past 6 months. I have spoken to many, many individuals since the New Year started out. The public wants changes in the leadership and those who are successfully appointed to Arnprior Council.

While speaking with many of our residents, I find that similar viewpoints are being thrown back at me on a regular basis.

Such things as opening the door to Box Stores, keep a strong hand on the taxes, and be a visible representative to the community.

With the influx of new retail activity around our perimeter, I believe that there will be more 406888

sion in our downtown core, and that in turn, will rejuvenate our retail package as more retail outlets open up providing new employment opportunities.

As one of your elected Arnprior councilors, I pledge to work diligently to encourage new and beneficial growth and be accountable to the citizens of Arnprior. I also pledge to be open to dialog on views of all citizens. I ask for your support on October 25, 2010 and elect me as one of your councilors.

Doug Munro is an official candidate for election to Arnprior municipal council.

Arnprior Dairy Queen is hosting a party Thursday, Aug. 12 to celebrate Miracle Treat Day. The annual fundraiser supports the Children’s Miracle Network Hospital, which in this area is the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario.

Proceeds from all blizzards sold at Dairy Queens across Canada on Miracle Treat Day goes toward CHEO. The Arnprior DQ will be open 10 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Arnprior DQ manager Jane Ferrari said staff members get into the spirit of the day by making sure they and customers have fun. One staffer will be performing magic tricks and the outlet will be holding another ‘bring your parent to work’ day, as it was enjoyed so much last year, she said.

Ferrari said the Arnprior DQ has been participating in Miracle Treat Day for at least eight years.

High rollers and hungry strippers abound Nature’s Way

Serpentine Miner, which carves beautiful meandering patterns in poplar leaves. Other types of Miners create similar patterns in the leaves of Columbines and Asters.

Some signs of activity are easily overlooked, but once identified they are found to be extremely common. These are leaves that have been rolled into tubes or tied together with silk.

Leaf Rollers, Leaf Tiers, and Leaf Folders are caterpillars named after the way they deal with leaves.

Tiers differ from Folders in that Folders fold a leaf neatly in half so that the outer edges meet while Tiers bind sections of leaves or attach several leaves together.

All of these caterpillars live and feed inside their structures. If you unroll a folded-up leaf you often find its tiny architect inside.

However, instead of a

Your Local Builder Since 1987

caterpillar sometimes someone else is at home.

Sac Spiders also fold leaves to create chambers in which they guard their eggs and babies.

Regardless of maker, it amazes me that such tiny animals are behind these great architectural feats.

The list of animals living on leaves contains beetles and mites. An excellent book for identifying leaf eaters is Insects of Eastern Hardwood Trees (by Rose and Lindquist), published by Natural Resources Canada.

One need not travel far to encounter these remarkable animals that live on leaves.

When one’s eyes are opened to their signs, one soon sees that there are worlds within worlds, life without limit.

It amuses me when someone goes for a walk in the woods and reports that there weren’t any animals.

What they meant was they saw no large animals, for if they had looked properly they would have seen hundreds, possibly thousands of creatures and their signs.

All one has to do is look at leaves to see abundant evidence of living things.

Large holes reveal the work of caterpillars, which might be found resting on the shady underside of the leaf. Some caterpillars are specific to only one type of plant but most eat a wide variety.

More obvious are leaves that have been completely eaten to their main vein.

rolling cartridges when the explosion occurred. He was covered with flying debris, his skull being fractured. The three people killed had just gone into the drying and mixing room when the explosion occurred.

“Pittner and Hewart were experts who had come from Philadelphia to work in

the mills. Hewart was unmarried, but Pittner is survived by a widow and two children, who live at Arnprior.

“The fire which broke out subsequent to the explosion continued to burn in the bush around the factory until the evening when it was finally got under control by the Amprior fire brigade.”

Exempt poppy sales Arnprior council has supported a resolution asking the federal government to consider exempting the sale of poppies and poppy wreaths from the GST and/or the HST. The motion, being circulated by Head, Clara and Maria Township, notes it would increase revenue for the Legion’s veterans support programs.

One hundred years ago, in mid-July, three men were killed at Sand Point in a fatal explosion in a powder factory.

The dead were Earl Murphy, 13, of Arnprior and Frank Pittner, 37, and John Hewart, 30, explosives experts from Philadelphia.

The injured were David Lynn of Sand Point, his son Edward Lynn, Charles Thomas of Sand Point, Thos. Mullett of Carleton Place, John Chatterton of Sand Point, W. Bradley of Perth and Supt.

Matchett of Ottawa.

The story is datelined Arnprior July 11.

“With a roar that was heard and a shock that was felt for miles around, the factory of the Dominion Explosives Company blew up this morning shortly before 11 o’clock. It was located at Sand Point, five miles west of this town, and a few minutes after the explosion a telephone call was sent in for help.

“All the doctors in Arnprior hurried to the scene of the disaster. The factory had taken fire and there was great danger of a second explosion.

“The members of the fire brigade, how-

ever, did all they could, not only to prevent the spread of the flames but to rescue the injured.

“They succeeded in preventing the flames from reaching the magazine in which, it is stated, a very large quantity of the company’s stock of explosive is stored.

“There were many lucky escapes. J. Potter, the engineer, had just gone to the well to draw a pail of water when the explosion occurred, and while debris fell all around him, he was unhurt.

“James Goth, another employee of the cartridge department, was rolling cartridges when the building exploded, and escaped without a scratch.

“The men who escaped can give no reason for the disaster. The explosive the company makes is called the “blaster’s friend” and was believed to be particularly safe.

“Mr. Henry G. Nicoll of New York, president of the company, reached Amprior tonight and will tomorrow, in company with Superintendent Sachette, who was slightly injured, visit the wreck of the factory. He will make no statement until after his visit.

“The remains of Pittner and Hewart were found this afternoon, but there is no trace of Murphy’s body. Young Lynn, whose condition is critical, was engaged

The Dog – Canis Lupus Familiaris IAN STUPP Wags and Whiskers

The companion dog sitting on your lap or playing in your yard has come a long way: over 15,000 years of evolution and man’s quest to domesticate the Grey Wolf into what we have come to know as the dog.

The term Dog is for a male that has no puppies to his name.

The term Bitch is a female dog that has never had any puppies.

The term Sire is for a male dog that has bred a litter of puppies and Dame is for a female dog that has had a litter of puppies.

According to DNA, the companion animal may date back as far as 15,000 to 17,000 years.

They were companions, providers and protectors for European families What happened was actually quite fascinating. Unlike today, garbage collection did not exist and so man dumped garbage in piles away from the city and, of course, the wolves would come down from the forest and rummage through the garbage.

The wolves that were more fearful would simply head back to the forest to hunt for food.

Those more brave would hang around and live amongst the humans until one day man and beast became more trusting of one another.

Through the course of evolution, the Grey Wolf that befriended man started to change.

Since man was now in control of how they live, eat and survive, they no longer needed a massive jaw with huge canines to rip apart prey, a thick coat to keep themselves warm at night, or to be ferocious, just to name a few traits. The wolf was now evolving into a semi-domesticated animal.

When the Europeans left for Australia, they brought along

their faithful companions that we now know as the Australian Dingo. The Dingo is the only direct link between the Grey Wolf and the dog in your home.

So what happened next was man’s desire to create an animal that best suited his needs.

All the traits we see today are man-made. For example, certain

breeds were created to see and smell prey helping man hunt, larger dogs were bred with aggression to protect man and small dogs were bred to hunt rodents for the farmers in England. All the traits we see today like barking, lap sitting, licking, fetching, etc. were all man’s creations. Wolves did not posses any of those traits.

Even today, we can take any breed and make changes or even

create a new species in just seven generations of puppies.

Research shows that the companionship of a dog can enhance human physical health and psychological well-being. Dog owners have been shown to have better mental and physical health than non-owners, making fewer visits to the doctor and being less likely to be on medication than non-owners.

So the next time you hug your companion animal, remember that the unconditional love you have been given dates back almost 17,000 years.

JOHN CARTER john.carter@metroland.com

Giving the Ottawa River heritage status without involving Quebec would “send a wrong message to our neighbours,” says Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant.

Gallant also suggests there “may be other issues that need to be resolved that have yet to be adequately addressed,” before she endorses the heritage designation application. Gallant made the comments in a letter to Renfrew County council, explaining why she has not yet supported the designation request.

County council passed a resolution in June urging the prime minister to force Gallant to officially support the designation application.

It has been speculated by some observers that Gallant is withholding her support because the campaign was initiated by the riding’s former Liberal MP Len Hopkins. It was also suggested Gallant is opposing the effort because she fears the designation might affect property rights.

In her letter dated July 22, Gallant said she is responding to “rumours and misrepresentations stated both inside and outside county council chamber before and since (the motion)” and suggest councillors “take the time to gather all the facts before passing judgment.”

Gallant maintains the request is “unprecedented” because the application has been changed to only include the Ontario side of the river.

“Designating half the river is half the job,” she said. “I would hope that county councillors would want the heritage designation of the Ottawa River to unite our two provinces, not divide us.”

Gallant wrote that it is her job to consider all the implications, national as well as local, that come with recognizing the historical significance of the Ottawa River.

“If this designation goes through where only half the Ottawa River is so recognized, we will have lost a great opportunity in nation-building. Let’s get it right the first time.”

“That’s because they’ve just been hit with a new tax that further erodes their ability to make ends meet.

“And even though the government has finally bowed to opposition pressure, and is removing the Eco-Tax for now, it’s clear they still intend to come back with something else,” he says. “They say they want to ‘re-tool’ it, when actually, at least

SPORTS National medals for local Special Olympians

SHERRY HAAIMA shaaima@msn.com

The hard work and dedication of two local Special Olympians has paid off in a big way on the national scene.

Greg Murdoch of Arnprior and Kris Gorr of Lapasse came away from the National Special Olympics in London, Ont., with an impressive medal

count and memories that will last a lifetime.

Arnprior Redfish special Olympics Coaches Barbara Cosman and Jane Dowd couldn’t be more proud of the young men.

Cosman said traveling to London to be part of the July 11 to 17 games with her swimmers was a great experience. “Both of the athletes had a tremendous performance,” says Cosman. “They swam their hearts out and it Kris Gorr, left, and Greg Murdoch proudly pose with their medals in London.

was evident in the team’s medal standings.”

Murdoch picked up a slew of medals, including: gold – 4 x 25m relay, gold – 100m breaststroke, gold – 50m butterfly, gold – 100m back crawl, bronze – 200m individual medley, bronze – 200M breaststroke, fifth place – 200m freestyle (personal best time).

Gorr had an impressive medal haul as well, including: gold – 50m freestyle, bronze – 200m freestyle, fourth place – 50m back crawl (personal best time), fourth place – 50m breaststroke (personal best time).

This is the first time the club has had any athletes qualify for the nationals, says Cosman.

Now, athletes will be chosen to represent Team Canada at the World Games in Greece in 2011 so it’s possible Murdoch or

Derrick Schubrink, centre, of White Lake captured the two top prizes in the Ottawa River Catfish Classic, earning him $1,500. Presenting him with his prize Saturday at a wind-up celebration at the Prior Sports Bar are Terry and Kaelea Runtz of Towey’s Bayt and Tackle, main sponsors of the event. For more, see Page 21.

Gorr will have the chance to attend and compete, which is exciting, says Cosman. Dowd credited the athletes for their dedication to swimming.

“Both of them trained all winter,” she explains.

Then, starting in March the training was kicked up a notch and the boys began regular sessions alongside Arnprior’s Grayfish Masters swim club.

“They worked very hard,” says Dowd.

Both coaches expressed their thanks for the support from the Grayfish.

Murdoch is considering joining the club this fall.

The 18-year-old is taking his success in stride.

“It was good,” he says with a modest smile. “The best part was getting the medals.”

He said he was happy to represent Arnprior and do his best.

He says he enjoys it very much and has made many special friends over the years.

Packers camp in two weeks PETER CLARK peter.clark@metroland.com

Where has the summer gone?

Already, it’s only two weeks before the 2010-11 edition of the Arnprior Packers takes to the ice to open training camp.

Camp gets underway Sunday, Aug. 22 from 7:30 to 9 p.m. at the Nick Smith Centre. A full training camp schedule will be provided upon registration.

Players are asked to show up for registration at 6:30 p.m.

The $100 cost to tryout guarantees a player two exhibition games and four intersquad games.

Coach and general manager Bill Griese also has a couple of preseason home games scheduled: Friday, Sept. 3 versus

the Stittsville Royals, and Sunday, Sept.

12 when the Pontiac Juniors come to town.

The Packers open regular-season play with a pair of games against Rideau-St. Lawrence Conference teams during the inaugural Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League Fall Classic. The showcase features all 22 of the league’s teams at the Bell Sensplex in Ottawa Sept. 18 and 19.

The club then travels to Renfrew for a Sept. 24 encounter.

Arnprior’s first official home game of 2010-11 is Friday, Oct. 1 when they take on the Almonte Thunder at the Nick Smith Centre.

McGee, Bernard, Lafortune shine in amateur championships PETER CLARK peter.clark@metroland.com

Arnprior’s Allen McGee withstood the challenges of all comers, most notably Dwight Reinhart of the Renfrew Golf Club, to capture the Ottawa Citizen Amateur Golf Championship last Thursday at the Marches in Ottawa.

A three-time Ottawa City and District Championship, McGee took a sevenstroke lead into the final day of the fourround event.

Reinhart cut the deficit to four shots midway through the final round, but the

Arnprior Golf Club member refused to fall to the pressure.

A 5-over-par 77 clinched the Citizen title, which also included rounds at Eagle Creek, Loch March and the Kanata Golf and Country Club.

The lead was only a single shot through two rounds, before McGee manufactured a 70 in the third round while Reinhart settled on a 76.

McGee’s final 291 total featured rounds of 75-69-70-77 while Reinhart finished four shots back.

McGee said it was great to have his wife Tarra, daughter Zoe and son Hunter

by his side. “They are the ones who support me, so for them to actually be here was great,” he said.

Hunter, 9, caddied during the final round for his dad.

McGee said he’d be back to defend his title next year, adding he loves the format.

The Arnprior Golf Club also had a second quality performance on the men’s side with Chris Bernard registering rounds of 77-71-76-73 for a 297 total to finish in third place.

The tournament opened with 136 players competing, of which 72 qualified

through the second-round cut, while the best 36 scores advanced to the final session.

Arnprior’s Christine Lafortune turned in a solid performance in the women’s Citizen championship.

Lafortune posted a 327, consisting of rounds of 78-85-78-86 over the four days to finish alone in 12th place.

Faye Patrois of Mountain Creek also reached the final day of competition and placed 33rd with a final count of 362.

Lise Jubinville of Carleton, at 304, captured the ladies crown by seven shots over Rivermead’s Louise Hotte.

Arnprior Golf Club

Allen McGee played his way to a well-deserved win in the Ottawa Citizen Men’s Amateur Golf Championship last week, finishing the fourth round with a 77 and a four-stroke edge over Dwight Reinhart of Renfrew.

Chris Bernard finished in third and Kevin Mulvihill was eighth. In the women’s competition, Christine Lafortune finished in 12th place. All these Arnprior golfers deserve a round of applause for their excellent results.

In last week’s Men’s Night, Terry Olmstead won A Division with 19 points. Second place was taken by Ted Chaplin with 17.

Robbie Burton prevailed in B class with 22 points, Peter Leroy was second with 19.5 and Bill Scheel took third with 19 points.

C Class was won by Bob Legault with 21 points, Jim Booth had 20.5 to take second and Doug Reynolds held third with 20 points.

Don Nicholas won D Class with 22 points followed by John Geldert with 20.

The A/B Skins Game produced

West Carleton Minor Hockey is the big winner at the Jon Brunette Memorial Golf Tournament.

The eighth annual tournament, in memory of former West Carleton Minor Hockey player, Ottawa Titan and Arnprior Junior Packer Jon Brunette, will be played this Saturday, Aug. 7 at the Irish Hills Golf and Country Club in Carp.

All proceeds go to the Jon Brunette Memorial Fund to benefit West Carleton Minor Hockey, through paying the registration of a local player on the Titans and funding a season-ending fun day for the Initiation players.

Brunette was a well-known player in the West

a carryover to the next week. The C/D game produced six skins in all, with Gerry Pulcine taking two (holes 3 and 5), Paul Charbonneau took one on number 2 and Doug Reynolds, Jim Booth and Don Nicholas took skins on holes 6, 7 and 8 respectively.

Steve Ring won the Pro Shop Raffle.

Ladies Night was played to a Country and Western theme and was sponsored by Cheryl Richardson-Burnie and Francie Heagney. M&R Feeds provided a number of props that helped set the atmosphere for the evening.

Cecile Mullins won for the longest putt, Lisa Poirier won the chipping contest, Louise Mulvihill had the longest drive, Betty Lawlor won the closest to the pin competition and Lenora Homulos took the putting contest.

Upcoming events include the ladies Mulvihill Cup competition to be hosted by the Arnprior Golf Club this Saturday, Aug. 7; the Men’s Four-Man Scramble Aug. 8; and the final round of qualifying for the Ladies O’Brien Cup team also Aug. 8.

Also rapidly approaching is the club championship weekend Aug.14-15.

White Lake angler tops Catfish Derby Two catfish weighing 11.9 and 11.6 pounds were large enough to give Derrick Schubrink of White Lake the two top prizes in the Ottawa River Catfish Classic.

Schubrink caught the fish, that earned him $1,500 in prize money, from the shore of the Ottawa River at the Arnprior Fish and Game Club. A total of 567 catfish over two pounds were weighed in during the week-long derby and organizers estimate well over 1,000 catfish were caught.

Consult stakeholders: MP Continued from Page 18 That’s how best to honour the memory of Hopkins, Gallant said, denying she opposes the designation because he originated the effort.

“In regards to some of the unfortunate comments attributed to the chair of the Ottawa River Heritage designation committee, I remind county council that former heritage committee chair Leonard Hopkins had retired years prior to my running for elected office. He was never a political rival.

“For the record, I was honoured to nominate Mr. Hopkins for the Queen’s Jubilee Medal in 2003 in the absence of recognition from his own party for his long years of service,” she wrote, including a photograph of her presenting the medal to the long-time Liberal MP. She says she provided Hopkins with a letter of support early in the campaign, but respecting his committee’s independence, took a “hands-off ” approach to his efforts.

Because the request was changed some time from 2006 to 2008 to include only where the river makes up the provincial boundary instead of its full length, and only the Ontario side, the stakeholders should be consulted again before any final decision is made, Gallant wrote.

Each week we feature animals from the Arnprior and District Humane Society that are up for adoption.

#3759 Moses Moses, a five-year-old neutered male, will make a wonderful companion. He was abandoned in the country and thankfully someone found him and brought him to the shelter. He was in terrible shape - very thin and badly matted - but he is now healthy and ready to find a good home. Moses is a very friendly cat. He likes attention but isn’t demanding. Moses is a large cat with an easygoing personality. He is quiet, gentle and good with other cats.

3739 Lionel There’s never a boring moment with Lionel around. He is a two-year-old neutered male who was given up by his owner who was no longer able to care for him. Lionel is an active, energetic cat who he is very curious and likes to explore and play. He is sure to keep his new owners on their toes. He is friendly and gets affectionate when he is all tired out. He is good with other cats and dogs.

Supplies the shelter needs; Whiskas Meaty selections dry cat food, paper towels, bleach and canned cat food.

The Pakenham Fair is the place to go this Aug. 14 to buy and visit with local growers, producers and vendors and explore local flavours.

“This year’s Pakenham Fair revolves around the theme of local food,” explains Nicole Guthrie, Mississippi Mills community cultural programmer.

“We want to encourage more of our residents to eat locally produced and grown food, and feel the fair is a great way to introduce the concept and highlight producers.”

The plan is to turn the parking lot of the Stewart Community Centre into a local market.

Vendors will be selling locally harvested meat, cheese, eggs, honey, syrup, vegetables, herbs and just about anything else you can imagine.

A host of producers will be on site to educate you and help put local food on your dinner table.

The fair will also have its traditional horse, beef, dairy and horticulture shows as well as some children’s activities, a petting zoo and eats at the outdoor canteen.

The fair booklet is available on the Mississippi Mills website at www.mississippimills.ca and will be available at local stores and libraries.
