Group renews push for Manotick arena expansion emma.jackson@metroland.com
News - Manotick’s locker talk is more of the ‘community activism’ variety than the usual double entendres these days. The Manotick Culture, Parks and Recreation Association has renewed its push to expand the Manotick Arena’s dressing rooms with a new petition calling on the city to
hook the arena up to its new sewer pipes. More than 250 people signed a petition asking the city to hook up during Dickinson Days on June 7 and 8, and sports organizations like the Osgoode Rideau Minor Hockey Association are supporting the push, as well. Connecting to the sewers and decommissioning the arena’s septic system would deem the facility “shovel

ready” for a much-needed expansion of the dressing rooms and community hall – allowing the group to start applying for city and provincial grants. “If we’re not shovel ready we can’t apply for the grants, and we’re not shovel ready with that (septic) system located on that (north) wall that we want to expand,” said Mike O’Neil, the MCPRA board member spearheading this campaign. The 40-year-old facility has changed very little since it was built in 1974, other than to add a ladies’ change room several years ago in place of the canteen. The original change rooms are small; a team of teenaged hockey players with their coaches and managers can barely fit inside before game time. Kids are sometimes even changing in the hallways, according to O’Neil, and the rooms are not wheelchair accessible. See ARENA, page 2

Arena upgrades a long time coming for Manotick Continued from the front
The community hall above the dressing rooms faces the opposite problem: it’s a large, empty space with no way to divide up the room to make way for multiple meetings at a time, O’Neil said. And it’s not even so large as to be able to accommodate major meetings; when discussing controversial issues, it’s often packed to capacity. “We’ve got a new player in town, Mahogany, so there’s more people in the village
boundary,� O’Neil said. “It’s certainly not big enough to serve the community it’s expected to serve.� No one is arguing that the status quo is acceptable; Rideau-Goulbourn Coun. Scott Moffatt agrees wholeheartedly with his residents that an arena upgrade is long overdue. “The dressing rooms are miniscule at best,� he said. “It’s actually unbelievable how small they are, especially compared to Richmond and Osgoode, which are older fa-

cilities.� Where Moffatt disagrees with the community organizers, however, is how to fix the problem. O’Neil said the board wants the city to spend $40,000 as soon as possible to hook the arena up to its brand new sewer system, which was installed in 2012 to serve Minto’s Mahogany development. City staff have suggested burying the equipment and decommissioning the septic at a later date, when it’s time for a lifecycle upgrade, as many Manotick residents have opted to do in their own homes. Moffatt was more magnanimous, suggesting that the septic system can easily be removed as part of the expan-

sion project itself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t honestly know why thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a feeling that we need to hook it up (right now),â&#x20AC;? Moffatt said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you just coordinate the sewer work at the same time of the expansion, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to do one before the other.â&#x20AC;? Moffatt said the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original project estimate of $1.3 million included the cost of removing the septic bed and hooking up to city services. Ripping up the area around the arena now only to rip it up again in a few years for the expansion doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make sense, he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why would the city connect if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not 100 per cent necessary?â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spend the money when we need to spend the money.â&#x20AC;? But Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Neil said hooking up to city services is a maintenance item, not a capital expenditure, and shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be going out for tender with the expansion. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no timeline in place for the project, but Moffatt said he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see the city including the project in its 2015 budget. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re there yet,â&#x20AC;? he said. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not pushing for city money. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you can do it fully within the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better. If we have to do a 50/50 cost share, then thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good, too,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The community wants this and needs it, but the city hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t recognized that yet. This is one thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pushed for by the community, and it will end up being a community/city led project.â&#x20AC;?

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The commemorative naming process is officially underway to decide whether or not the StrandherdArmstrong bridge should be renamed Vimy Bridge. The Manotick and Barrhaven legion branches suggested the name to the city in July, in an effort to memorialize the 100th anniversary of the start of World War I. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because it spans the Rideau Canal, a National Historic Site of Canada, a Canadian Heritage River and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and because

cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s over-supply of war commemorations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;From my perspective, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think we can do too much to honour the sacrifice of our veterans,â&#x20AC;? he said. He also rejected suggestions that a Vimy Ridge memorial belongs downtown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I find that rather patronizing of communities like Riverside South and Barrhaven. The message is weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not part of the capital,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a major piece of infrastructure and it deserves a name that is fitting with its status.â&#x20AC;? According to the city, a commemorative name â&#x20AC;&#x153;honours individuals who have demonstrated excellence, courage or exceptional service to the citizens of the City of Ottawa, Province of Ontario and/or Canada; provided extensive community service; worked to foster equality and reduce discrimination; made a significant financial contribution to a park or facility, and the contribution significantly benefits the community that the park or facility serves or who has historical significant to the community, City of Ottawa, Province of Ontario and/or Canada.â&#x20AC;?

Steve Desroches said that problem can likely be solved through the commemorative naming process this summer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something we can look at, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the Vimy Memorial Bridge or Vimy Centennial Bridge,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s room for some tweaking.â&#x20AC;? Comments on social media show some residents are concerned that military-related events have already been adequately honoured across the city. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Although I respect the context of this name, I feel there are already many commemorative sites named after war or military events,â&#x20AC;? wrote Manotick resident Serge Lamothe in a letter to the editor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One honor I feel is missing in our country is reflections to Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s First Peoples. ... Naming the bridge
it connects two entrances to the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital, this structure is more than a small local bridge connecting two communities,â&#x20AC;? reads the proposal on the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The amount of traffic going by and over this bridge on a daily basis, both local and tourist, would mean that a lot of people would be reminded of Vimy (Ridge) and the sacrifices made by Canadian troops.â&#x20AC;? The $48 million bridge opened over the Rideau River on July 12, finally connecting the Riverside South and Barrhaven communities after several years of delays. Reaction to the proposed name has varied, with some residents arguing Vimy Bridge sounds too much like Vimy Ridge. Gloucester-South Nepean Coun.

from which country – probably because both knitting groups used the same patterns. “I wouldn’t be able to say, ‘oh that is an English one or that is a Canadian one,’” said Burrtt. “They are all fairly similar.” Still, Burrtt feels that the exhibit is important to mark the 100th anniversary of such a bloody and important war. “I think a lot of people have forgotten and I also believe that teenagers, 20-year-olds, 40-yearolds – they don’t really know what went on,” said Burrtt. “There were thousands of Canadians that went overseas to fight in a war and they never returned.” The North Gower Knifty Knitters resume meetings in the third week of September.

and took some poppies and photos to exchange with them,” said Burrtt. “I also brought poppies back and this is how it all came about.” The exchange is important, said Burrtt, because of the two countries’ shared history throughout the conflict. “I just thought it was a nice exchange seeing how both the Canadians and the Brits were both involved in the First World War,” said Burrtt. On July 26 a display at the Library, featuring books on the First World War, war memorabilia and both British and Canadian knitted poppies were put together for public viewing. The poppies are about five inches around and Burrtt and six other knitters had worked putting the collection together for about two months prior to the exchange. It is very difficult to tell which poppy comes

Impromptu memorials are valid
P
reventable deaths are painful for those left behind. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s understandable that those who have lost a loved one would want to help others avoid a similar outcome, hence the increasing number of ghost bikes in the city. A ghost bike is an old bike turned memorial. They stand near the site of the fatal accident. To some they are a critical reminder and tribute, while others see only chaos, ugliness or a reminder of death. Those who have recently complained about a ghost bike at Bank Street and Riverside Drive may prompt the city to enact a process that runs counter to the spirit of the ghost bikes. The city would do well to avoid feeling pressured to act. Ghost bikes are a spontaneous response to a spontaneous event. If they grab the attention of passers-by then thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good thing. What better place to remind drivers of the possible consequence of bad driving than the place where a death occurred? Reality shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be hidden away. It
should be as in-your-face as the death was for the unfortunate rider. A potential bonus is that drivers may even slow down when they are reminded of the risks their cars pose to those on bikes or on foot. Cyclists in turn may be reminded to ride defensively. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good time to discuss the issue because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a year since a ghost bike was erected at the corner or Bank and Riverside, after a rider was killed in a collision with a cement truck. That site has been decorated for special occasions â&#x20AC;&#x201C; such as St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and has also been kept neat and clean by volunteers. There have been flags for Canada Day and flower planters brighten the spot. It would be fair to say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the cleanest street corners in the city thanks to their efforts. While these memorials should never impede public walkways, those who complain the bikes should be removed because they remind others of death, or are an eyesore, are missing the point.

Campingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a breeze â&#x20AC;&#x201C; until you go it alone
A
lot of people I know are intimidated by the idea of tent camping with their kids. I probably would be, too, except that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m married to a Boy Scout. Actually, he was never part of the organization, but anyone who knows my spouse understands he can as easily whittle oversized camp cooking utensils from branches (he did this 13 years ago on our first camping trip together when we forgot the utensil bag), as he can fix a brideâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manicure using only the contents of his wallet. (The latter occurred at the nuptials of my brother and sister-inlaw and earned him the nickname MacGyver). My children know mom is useless when it comes to manual skills, while
dad can pretty much fix anything. If a button falls off, they ask dad to repair it. If they need a haircut, they go to dad. If their bike chains fall off, they would rather call dad at work to ask him how to fix it themselves than approach mom about it. People talk about preparing for an emergency â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the 72-hour kit and so on. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got water, beans and flashlights, but really, my only hope of surviving any kind of major disaster is to be in the presence of my spouse.

How else will I figure out a way to open the beans without the electric can opener? Camping with the Mister, as you can imagine, is a dream. The man can string a tarp like nobodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business. He can sew a leaky tent and start a fire with a single match. He even knows how to make a forest latrine â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a pee pit, if you will â&#x20AC;&#x201C; pretty useful, depending on the distance from tent to flush toilets. When we camp as a family, my spouse often prefers me to take the kids to the beach and just â&#x20AC;&#x153;leave him to itâ&#x20AC;? to get the site organized. No problem. But every once in a while, I start to feel a little jealous of my spouseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practical skill set and all the admiration that goes along with it.

then I decide to do something really brave â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or crazily overconfident â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to demonstrate my can-do attitude and ability. This year, I booked seven nights of tent camping with my three children (including a potty-training twoyear-old), and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going in August, while my husband is stuck at work. Yup, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going it alone. My boys are old enough to understand that this may not be the greatest plan in the world. Still, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been enthusiastic supporters. (Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re dreaming of eight glorious days of freedom in the woods and at the beach). When I first informed them of the trip, they promised they would help me out with all the things Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m â&#x20AC;&#x153;not very good at.â&#x20AC;? As they listed off some of the things they intend to do â&#x20AC;&#x201C; put up the tents, inflate the air mattresses, climb a tree to string a clothesline and start the campfire â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I realized I had grossly overestimated their confidence in me.

Still, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure it will all be just fine, right? While I may turn out to be a camping disaster, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m counting on the fact that my kids â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who actually are in Boy Scouts and have Mister for a dad â&#x20AC;&#x201C; will keep things ticking along smoothly.

Biologist, artist duo travel pipeline landscape News - Artist Aleta Karstad and biologist Dr. Frederick Schueler have a long record of helping people see what they may not understand in the environment around them. As the specter of TransCanadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Energy East Pipeline comes closer to a reality south of Ottawa, the Bishops Mills couple has embarked on a tour of the stream crossings that will be affected by the arrival of the pipeline through Eastern Canada. With the help of a crowd funding campaign on Indiegogo.com, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re heading east to look at the kinds of environments the pipeline will cross on its way to the east coast. Later, they will follow the pipeline back through its route from western Canada. At the end of July, the couple launched their fundraising website called Vulnerable Watersheds â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Fragile Crossings. They will use the funding to help finance their environmental survey. On Sunday, July 21 they were at the Branch Restaurant and

Aleta Karstad and Fred Schueler are travelling across Eastern Canada to paint and document wildlife along the Energy East Pipeline path. Species and populations that were once common are now vulnerable, and many suffer irreparable damage before anyone notices. Blending art with science as they write, paint, teach, and publish, their goal is to freely share their
vision and their discoveries with everyone. Contact Schueler at bckcdb@ istar.ca and Karstad at karstad@ pinicola.ca. to donate to their journey, visit www.indiegogo. com/projects/fragile-crossings.

Texas Grill in Kemptville for the launch of their project, called the Vulnerable Watersheds survey of Summer/Fall 2014. Karstad will be documenting the survey with paintings of what the two are finding and Schueler will be documenting and cataloguing the wildlife he finds along the pipeline route. The Branch donated 50 per cent of proceeds sold from their menu that day, which also included fun, friends and music. Schueler and Karstad live and work in Bishops Mills. Their goal is to help individuals make sense of their place in the environment on a local scale, and to help decision-makers at all levels of government think about sustainability from an environmental perspective. During many years of independent work in association with academia, government agencies, environmental advocacy groups, and museums, the couple has developed a network of partners and colleagues who continue to validate their science and art even though their work is increasingly independent. These are times of rapid change.

St. Mark lacrosse star headed to top US school emma.jackson@metroland.com
Sports - At only 16 years old, Cameron Badour’s dream has already come true. The Grade 11 student from Greely has committed to join Duke University’s field lacrosse program in North Carolina in 2016 – a goal he’s been working toward for more than a year. “I was just absolutely overwhelmed,” Badour said. “I still can’t really grasp the fact that I’m actually committed to Duke.” Duke’s men’s field lacrosse team is currently ranked first in the United States’ National Collegiate Athletic Association’s Division 1, and was the Division 1 champion in 2013 and 2014. Badour, a 6’4” powerhouse who was St. Mark High School’s most valuable player at OFFSSA this year, attended the Maverik Showtime Lacrosse National Recruiting Spotlight in Connecticut this July to try his
Cameron Badour luck at becoming a Duke Blue Devil. “I heard the coach was interested in me, so I reached out to him,” Badour said. The coaches asked him to come to the school, and after a three-day visit he was welcomed to the team on July 24. “It happened quite quickly; this was all in a two-week span,” Badour said. While he couldn’t disclose the details, he said the school
will help support his tuition costs. He plans to take a marketing program and hopes to end up in finance. Badour’s been playing lacrosse since he was kindergarten age. It’s been a good summer for the teen, who was also named to Team Ontario in July. He’ll travel to Edmonton at the end of August for the national tournament. He’s also a star on the Ottawa Capitals team, a program he credits for his recent success. “If it wasn’t for them I wouldn’t have been at the showcase,” he said. He’s only the second Canadian to be recruited to the Blue Devils, the other being Team Canada member Zack Greer, who played for the team between 2004 and 2008. “I knew that getting recruited was a possibility ... but I never dreamt that it would happen so soon and so fast and to Duke,” Badour said. Ottawa Capitals administra-
tor Jay Fox said Badour’s success is a win for the sport as much as the individual. “It certainly raises the profile of our program and we we’re very pleased for Cam,” Fox said. “Hopefully it boosts the interest. We’ve been doing this for a couple years now and we’ve placed
quite a few players in NCAA schools – probably about 20.” Badour’s still got two years before he joins the Blue Devils in North Carolina, but he won’t be killing time. “I’m going to be working on my lacrosse game, working out a lot and working with play-
ers that are already playing at that level,” he said. “And I’ll be working on my academics.” In Grade 12 Badour will attend the Hill Academy prep school in Toronto to kick his lacrosse skills into high gear before making the move down south.

Your gift keeps on giving. Forever.
GIFTING TO CHARITY IS NOT JUST FOR THE WEALTHY. A LITTLE BIT GOES A LONG WAY! Many hard-working people want to make a positive difference in their community, but don’t have the time to do it. by Jessica Houle, lawyer at Sicotte Guilbault LLP, jhoule@sicotte.ca (613)-837-7408, ext. 260
It is a mistake to think that charitable gifting is only for people at a certain income level. Anyone can leave a charitable gift from their estate, regardless of the size of the estate. A gift is a gift, no matter how big or small and every bit helps and is appreciated. The good news is that including a gift in your Will is very easy

and will benefit many people. A charitable gift to Forever CHEO enhances the quality of life for children and their families in our community and leaves donors with a sense of fulfillment. Leaving a charitable gift also has some interesting tax benefits which are worth considering.
Another misconception is that you have to volunteer your time in order to give back to your community. Many hard-working people want to make a positive difference in their community, but don’t have time to do it. Leaving a legacy gift in your Will is a great way to give back to the community without having to compromise your time.

In short, you don’t have to be wealthy to make a difference and there is no such thing as an insignificant gift. By including a gift in your Will, whatever its size, you are helping to ensure that CHEO’s important work lives on for generations to come.

‘I’m doing this for my patients’ By Tracey Tong Dr. Roanne Segal works with people who are fighting cancer everyday. As a medical oncologist with the regional cancer program and medical lead with the breast disease site at The Ottawa Hospital, Dr. Segal is very familiar with what her patients go through. But what makes her patients relate to her as a doctor – and as a person – is her personal passion for the cancer cause.
of the event is to raise funds for cancer research. I’ll do as much as I can for the cause.”
For the doctor, the best part about Ride the Rideau is spotting her patients along the route. “Even though they usually recognize me before I recognize them, I get an incredibly warm feeling when I see patients riding,” she said. “And cycling is a great activity that’s open to everyone – you don’t need a special skill set to ride and you can ride a little or a lot.
This year marks the fifth that Dr. Segal will be volunteering as a Ride Guide for Ride the Rideau, Eastern Ontario’s largest single day fundraiser for cancer research. Part of her area of research includes exercise and survivorship, but that’s not why chooses to go above and beyond her work at the Hospital.
“I feel so proud about being a part of this cause.” As the signature fundraising event for The Ottawa Hospital Foundation, Ride the Rideau has raised more than $6.45 million for cancer research at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute. To learn more about Ride the Rideau, or to register or sign up to volunteer, visit www.ridetherideau.ca.
“I’m doing this for my patients,” said Dr. Segal, who added that learning about her participation in the event helps her patients become more comfortable with her.

youth with the resources to cope with challenges in their lives. “Having been in high school only a few years ago, I understand it’s really stressful to be a kid now,” Scharf said. “I definitely can see the stress.

Some kids say, ‘I don’t even want to try in school because it’s too much stress.’ Well, that’s not a good strategy.” The day of self-care is open to youth in grades seven to 12. Beginning at noon, the program will include workshops with facilitators from CHEO YouthNet, Ottawa Public Health and Rideauwood Addictions and Family Services. In between, participants will learn some ‘self-care’ techniques that promote positive mental health through physical exercise, healthy eating and relaxation. “If you exercise it releases endorphins that promote good mental health, and you’re less likely to fall into depression,” Scharf said. “We’re really trying to bring it down to things they can do in their free time.” The guest presenters will offer coping strategies for a variety of mental health challenges. CHEO YouthNet facilitators will focus on the signs of mental health issues, so that teens can recognize it in themselves or their friends. Ottawa Public Health staff, meanwhile, will lead participants in a stress-busting exercise, and Rideauwood facilitators will talk about the help available if you find yourself struggling with addiction – a common outcome of ongoing mental health issues in teens. Sharf said the program has never been more important for Ottawa youth, who now deal with modern
challenges like cyber bullying. She said there have been many youth deaths in the region over the past few years, including the death of her cousin Tyler Campbell, a Manotick teen who overdosed on fentanyl, a prescription painkiller, in 2012. She said it’s not easy to spot at-risk youth; Campbell was an active, bright teen before he struggled with his addiction, she said. And even those kids you know are well-adjusted could be at risk in the future. “Has any parent who ever experienced a youth-induced death said, ‘Oh yeah, I expected it to be my kid’? You don’t,” Scharf said. “Even the youth who don’t appear to be at risk, in a year so much can change, especially in high school and middle school. A mental health problem can come up so quickly and so out of the blue.” Giving teens the skills to recognize and cope with such changes in themselves and their friends could save lives, she said. The program starts at noon on Aug. 7 and wraps up at 6 p.m. Although the event requires pre-registration, Scharf said she’d rather have latecomers show up out of the blue than not experience the programming at all. “It’s a really important event,” she said.

Hockey charity gets kids on the ice
news
News - Instead of playing in the sun, a group of children from the Ottawa Inuit Children’s Centre donned helmets, gloves, skates and jerseys to play a little hockey this summer. On July 30, the children were bused from their Vanier location to the Minto Skating Centre for a rare opportunity to learn how to play hockey.
Everything provided during the day – busing, equipment and lessons – were thanks to Share the Puck, an organization that aims to give children who otherwise do not have the opportunity to play hockey. The organization was created by Nepean native John Ollson, who said a lot has changed since he first laced up his skates as a kid on a homemade skating rink. He said the average cost for a fiveyear-old to sign up for hockey is $500

and that cost can go up from there. “The game of hockey has become too much about money,” Ollson said. “It makes sense if you are 15 years-old and you are playing in AAA, but to get to that level, you need to start somewhere.” That’s why Ollson said he partnered with other fellow hockey friends, including the Osgoode Rideau Minor Hockey Association, to create the Share the Puck organization with one main objective: remove the financial barrier and encourage participation in the game of hockey for children seven to 12 years old in the capital region. The organization recently received an Ontario Trillium Foundation grant which has helped the charity grow. So far this summer, the organization has hosted six sessions for children across the city. By mid-August, the program will have seen 450 students skating on Minto Skating Centre’s ice – already meeting the programs initial goals, but Ollson said that with the Trillium grant and what he is willing to fund or raise through sponsorships, he plans on doubling that number by the end of the

Children from the Ottawa Inuit Children’s Centre took to the ice on July 30 to learn how to skate through the Share the Puck program. year. As a former professional hockey player who also played for the Ottawa 67’s, Ollson said he just wants to let others learn and enjoy the same game he loves. “I want to introduce kids to the game of hockey who do not have the resources to participate,” he said. Ultimately, he hopes initiatives like his take off across Canada, with individual communities running similar programs. The most important thing, Ollson added, is that all the money raised or donated goes directly into the program.
What can’t be raised in actual money, Ollson said has been given in kind. The Osgoode Rideau Minor Hockey Association will be donating volunteers, ice time and equipment. Back on the ice, the children slide, fall and sometimes stopped themselves by crashing into the net or the boards. Once the program was up and running and Ollson was witnessing the first group of children making their way from the change rooms to the ice, he said the feeling was overwhelming. “It’s hilarious, it’s comical, it’s fun and you can see all the kids have a lot of energy,” Ollson said.

V’s Cupcakes will sell more than 20 flavours of cupcakes along with cookies, brownies and custom cakes, according to owner Veronique Ayling. She’s opening the shop after a decade of discussing what she once thought was just a dream. Ayling said she grew up baking with her grandmother. “I come from a small town in the Laurentiens, and Manotick kind of reminds me of my hometown,” Ayling said. She hopes the vintage-inspired cupcake shop will be open in time to take advantage of Taste of Manotick. “It’s a perfect opportunity to introduce your business to the community,” Smith agreed. “That’s what this event’s all about: showing everybody how viable the village is and everything we have to offer.” For more information visit manotickvillage.com.

News – The fourth annual Taste of Manotick event will be bigger and better this year as the local Business Improvement Area takes its flagship party into the Manotick Mews. A third stage and expanded booth space in the Mews mall parking lot will offer more opportunities for live music and buskers on Aug. 16, said BIA director Donna Smith. “The Mews businesses will be set up in the parking lot and participating in the event,” she added. The annual event between 4 and 9 p.m. on Aug. 16 will shut down the village core to welcome thousands of visitors to check out Manotick’s business community. Guests can sample products and menu items, take home gift
bags of goodies and enter draws and raffles for big prizes. This year’s live music line-up includes Tequila,The Dan Dunlop Band, Stick’n Stones, The Full Nelson, and John Mathieu Trio. “It’s a huge boost going into the fall,” Smith said. “People are coming home from their holidays, so we’re reminding everyone that everything you need is in Manotick.” Smith said the Mews mall will still be open for parking, except for a small area taken over by the added stage. Smith said Manotick’s business community is thriving. While there’s some turnover throughout the village, vacancy rates are low, she added. For example, as a sushi restaurant packs up on Manotick Main, a new specialty cupcake shop will open in its place in August.

Community - Seniors in Barrhaven are stepping up to get each other out and about with weekly activities this fall, thanks to the newly created Barrhaven Seniors’ Centre. Activities will include card games, potlucks, speakers, movie screenings, discussion groups and more, starting in the third week of September in the Walter Baker Centre’s library meeting room. The group behind the activities is responding to a growing need in the community, said co-ordinator Don Winchester. The push for more seniors’ programming in the community started with an appeal to Coun. Jan Harder last fall, he said. “There was nothing (for seniors) established in Barrhaven at this time,” said Winchester. “Barrhaven is a very young community and over the years, as it’s been expanding, there has also been a number of seniors that have moved into the community, but there
said. “It’s working out very well that way. It’s a good cross-section.” The group is planning activities for Wednesdays and Thursdays in fall and winter, with cards and games taking place starting at 2 p.m. on Wednesdays and special events, speakers, discussion groups and movie screenings to take place on Fridays. “Right now we have approximately 75 to 80 people who are part of the actual group,” said Winchester. “What we are trying to do now is to get that group expanded, because we know there is somewhere between 300 and 500 seniors in and around the Barrhaven area.” Depending on attendance, activity days could grow to five days a week by the winter, said Winchester. For more information on activities, call Winchester at 613-440-3620 or email at chipchip@rogers.com. The group also has a Facebook page at facebook. com/groups/Barrhaven SeniorsCentre.
was nothing within Barrhaven itself. “(Seniors) had to go to Nepean or Kanata, and a number of our seniors don’t drive, so it was leaving a void in an everexpanding community that needed to get filled.” Harder agreed that there was a need for increased support for seniors – some of the community’s first residents. “Many of those who were earliest to live in a new place called Barrhaven at the end of the 60s and 70s are still here,” said Harder. “They have a wealth of history and much to contribute to our fast-growing community.” After receiving support from Harder and staff at the Walter Baker Centre and Ruth E. Dickinson library, a group began in January. The activities are geared towards people 50 and older, said Winchester, reflecting a city initiative to include a larger demographic. “A lot of people take early retirement or they work part time, and those are the types of people that can start to opt into programs as well,” he

A tribute to my good friend Joyce
W
e were both about five years old. It was the first time I had seen Joyce Francis, both of us brand new pupils at the Northcote Public School. People often ask if my little friend Joyce really existed ... or did I just create her to flesh out my Depression memories. She did indeed exist! And I remember that first day at school, so very many years ago when a friendship was forged that would last for many decades down the road. What I remember so well, as the little girl sat directly across from me in one of those little desks with the drawer under the seat, and the ink well implanted in the right hand corner, was her beautiful complexion. She had skin as fair as a lily, with a faint blush to her cheeks, and I noticed back then with envy, there wasn’t a freckle anywhere in sight! Not like my face, which my brother Emerson often likened to a turkey egg!
MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories And there was Joyce with skin like a freshly ripened peach. Although we became fast friends, our lives were as different as night was from day. First of all Joyce lived in a brick house ... ours was log. There was a flush toilet, with real toilet paper. Ours was behind a cluster of cedar trees, with an Eaton’s catalogue on a spike! But when Joyce came to our farm to play, she used the outdoor privy just as if there was no difference between it and her modern facility at home. That’s the kind of friend Joyce was. Joyce had her very own bed-
room, as did her brother Allan. I remember now, so many decades later, flowered wallpaper somewhere...perhaps it was in the hall upstairs, or in Joyce’s bedroom, but in my mind’s eye, I see pink...still one of my favourite colours. Joyce had a little wood pencil box...I think now, the only one at the Northcote Public School, but perhaps there were others, but I remember hers in particular. My pencils and eraser were in a little homemade drawstring bag. You opened Joyce’s pencil box with your thumbnail, and it swivelled open, and there inside were her pencils and art gum, as
PET OF THE WEEK
neat as you please. And one Friday, Joyce let me take her wood pencil box home for the weekend, which I took to the Lutheran Church on Sunday! That’s the kind of friend Joyce was. Joyce wore store-bought underwear ... mine were flourbags. Joyce wore little white socks with lace around the cuffs. She wore hand-knit sweaters. In spite of all this, what I considered grandeur, Joyce and I were best friends. It mattered not to her, that I came from a big rambunctious family, whom were poor as church mice, and most of my clothes were handme-downs, or ‘made-overs’. That’s the kind of friend Joyce was. Joyce’s father drove a modern car. Until we got our old Model T in a trade, we had to rely on Queenie, the buggy in the summer, and the cutter in the winter. And often I was taken into Renfrew in that spanking new car, driven by Joyce’s father, and we would stop at Briscoe’s General
Store for an ice cream cone, on Joyce’s suggestion. She knew for me, ice cream cones were a very infrequent treat. That’s the kind of friend Joyce was. Joyce never lost her love of life. She married, had two children Frank and Janice, and was then widowed. Derek Smith, who shared Joyce’s love of art, came into her life and they shared a
dozen wonderful happy years together. When her memory started to fade, she depended more and more on her family. Finally, she made her home with her daughter Janice, who often compared her Mother’s failing memory to that of a very young child. See Mary, page 31

As soon as a neighbour noticed that three children between the ages of five and ten were home alone until late at night, he called the Children’s Aid Society of Ottawa. Elissa’s mother was not abusive, she simply did not have the resources or funds to ensure her children were properly supervised throughout the day. The Children’s Aid Foundation of Ottawa supported the family financially; the younger children were able to attend day camp, while Elissa had the opportunity to join a dance camp. As a result, Elissa has since flourished into a dynamic young lady full of energy and dreams for the future. With the help and support of the Foundation, all three children developed new skills, were able to interact with people their own age and made lasting friendships all while being kept safe and secure. How can you help make children’s dreams come true and help out a family in need? You can support our efforts by donating to the Children’s Aid Foundation! Every contribution makes a difference in the life of a child.

At only ten years old, Elissa has already faced a number of challenges in her life. She is being raised by a single mother who has to work two jobs in order to support her three children. Because her mother could not afford to send her children to daycare or summer camps, Elissa became the caregiver of her two younger siblings. When school was out for the summer, she spent her days at home tending to her brother and sister.
