Stanley Cup comes to town

Louise Pillon went from laid off to owning her own business thanks to a bit of help. 5

GETTING BACK ON HER FEET

It all started in an outdoor rink in the backyard of a Kemptville home. Now, Kemptville native Ben Eager - who played left wing for Stanley Cup winners the Chicago Blackhawks – had his day with the Stanley Cup and brought it to Kemptville where he visited his grandfather at Bayfield Manor retirement home. “I’d like to see some beer in it!” laughed his grandfather, Ray Eager as he held the Stanley Cup. Family and friends gathered outside Bayfield Manor in the morning to see Eager arrive with the cup. Lois Crowder, a friend of the family, was outside with her grandchildren waiting for Eager’s arrival. “I was out in Vancouver watching the game, I jumped for joy and everyone wondered what all the excitement was about,” she said. “All I said was, ‘Ben won’.” Eager got some private family time in the retirement home with his grand-

father and immediate relatives. After that, Eager spent time autographing people’s shirts and taking photos with staff, residents and visitors. “Chances are it’s never going to happen,” said his father, Art Eager. “From the outdoor rinks on the fields on the farm, to the organized hockey and all the different leagues, you never think you’d get your name on the Stanley Cup. It’s very special.” Eager’s next stop was in Ottawa, but he said it’s been great being back in his hometown. “As a kid it’s your dream and now it’s starting to set in,” said Eager in an interview with the Advance. “When the cup shows up at your house, it’s pretty surreal.” While he mostly played hockey in Ottawa, Eager said the Kemptville community’s support has helped with his success. “It’s been very supportive out here and a lot of people J. Morin photo/ Advance staff have been following my career,” he said. “It’s great to Ben Eager, a Kemptville native and former left wing for Stanley Cup winners the share it with the people in Chicago Blackhawks, shows off his Stanley Cup to people waiting outside Bayfield Manor before he saw his grandfather, Ray Eager. the town.”

Walnut-sized hail recently hit areas across North Grenville - and the damage has destroyed an area vegetable farm. “It was just incredible to see. In one way it was awesome – it was hitting the ground and you couldn’t face into it and it was so big,” said Scott Kelland, owner of New Terra Farm just south of Merrickville. “But in another way it was pretty devastating.” Kelland said he could only watch as the large hail – which came down for about 15 minutes – destroyed his garden that included peppers, squash, tomatoes and cucumbers. “It piled up on my backdoor like a drift, still on my roof an hour later,” he said. “It punched holes my greenhouse and in the garden beds. It looks like a shotgun had blasted the holes and it shredded plants.” Kelland delivers to 45 homes in the area, including ones in Kemptville, Merrickville and Burritt’s Rapids. He said he’ll have to contact his customers and let them know they won’t get their deliveries throughout the rest of the summer. “It’s already the end of July,” he said. “It’s very late in the season for a lot of things.” However Kelland – who grows and delivers his vegetables up until Thanksgiving – said he might try and extend deliveries three weeks after his normal end date. The loss of his business will also take a toll financially for Kelland and his wife. “It’s going to be rough. I do some consulting work but my wife is full time on the farm,” he said. “It looks like I’ll be going back to work as a consultant.” Kelland said the hail storm serves as a reminder of how fragile crops can be and the impact it can have on a community. “This is a fairly small scale disaster but it’s taking food away from 45 families,” he said. “Nobody’s going to starve because I cant bring them fresh veggies. But if a storm like this happened on a larger scale, people should be prepared and really think about food security.”

COMMUNITY

Fairness for all Canadians

Dairyfest calls for volunteers

The news in the summer can be titillating, laid back, simply silly or carefully constructed so that no one sees what is coming next. The recent splash about reviewing our nation’s affirmative action program in regards to the civil service is case in point. The program has been around longer than many of the people who have been complaining about it. Back in the day, so to speak, the program was the only way that many disadvantaged sectors of our society could get ahead. The government was really trying to fill public service positions with an appropriate number of people from all parts of Canada and in doing so was naturally asking all of the rest of us to agree to put up a bit of generic unfairness in order to address a greater need. Back in 1986 Canadians were in agreement about affirmative action even though from time to time, it was frustrating. Now we hear that the conservative government wants to review the program. Not only are they apparently looking at the program, they will be looking at the entire Public Service Employment Act. The issue raised is that in trying to help visible minorities, women, aboriginal and disabled people, the government has to be carful not to achieve its desired results by discriminating against the rest of us who do not fall into one of those categories. You can bet that someone will be offended. There has to be an understanding between politicians and people they represent. Eventually there will be the need to change the affirmative action program if for no other reason than after a generation or so the population will have shifted, and minorities will be majorities and those who once needed help will be in a better position to make it on their own. Until then, the government will have to make sure that as they revisit the concept of fairness in hiring in the public service they keep in mind that their program has to reflect as much as possible the sense of fairness that all Canadians share.

Does Harper want to know less about Canadians? Long form takes 12 minutes to complete for fictitious family NEVIL HUNT nevil.hunt@metroland.com

If information is power, why does the federal government want less information? The Conservatives recently announced the end of the long-form census, the document that helps many organizations – and the government itself – make the right decisions about a community’s needs. At the same time, the voluntary short form will go to more homes. End result? More forms, less information and greater cost. Voluntary data is always suspect. Some demographic groups will fill them out more than others, and will therefore be over-represented. Industry Minister Tony Clement asked Statistics Canada to scrap the long form without any public consultation. Now the people who need

accurate stats are complaining. Clement has since said he won’t change his mind, pointing to Canadians’ fears of government intrusion, although the census folks soon pointed out that complaints are just about nil. In the interests of research, I printed out a long form from a recent census and filled it in on behalf of Jane and John Doe. Remember that all the info that could identify the Doe family is kept out of the hands of researchers for at least 92 years. If the Does are paranoid, they can even choose to check a box that ensures their names are never linked to the census, even if they’re dead and buried. The Doe family shared the following information for consumption by researchers and the public: • • • • • •

sex, birthdate and marital status, disabilities, place of birth, citizenship, languages spoken, their race and families’ ancestry, if they’ve moved lately, level of education and field,

Bad decisions are worth reversing. Especially when we end up with a more expensive census that is not quite worthless, but undoubtedly worth less. • •

From unemployed to business owner

kristy.wallace@metroland.com

Louise Pillon went from being laid off to pursuing a dream she always had, thanks to an area program that helps people start their own business. “I’ve always wanted to work with animals,” said Pillon, who was laid off in the high tech sector and now owns Sunny Acres Farm in Spencerville. “My original career goal was to be a vet, but life didn’t take me down that path.” Pillon is one of 800 people who have used the Self-Employment Benefit Program offered through the Grenville Community Futures Development Corporation. The program, sponsored by the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities, helps people start their own business. The provincial government cut funding for the program, but recently re-instated it. The program offers 42 weeks of training, with the first eight weeks of inclass training. While participants are in the program, they are also given $423 a week. “The point of the compensation is not to essentially invest it in their business,” said Ben TeKamp, who has taught this program for 15 years. “It’s so, participants don’t have to take money out of

Louise Pillon, above, started her own business – Sunny Acres Farm – with the help of the Self-Employment Benefit Program offered through the Grenville Community Futures Development Corporation. their business.” He said many of the people who take part in the program are mature people from age 25 to 30 at the lowest to 55 to 60 at the highest. During the first eight weeks, these potential business owners are taught how to prepare a business plan and marketing. Once TeKamp reviews the business idea, the participant will continue on to the rest of the program where they put their idea into action. “The program in my opinion is its one

of the better programs - it provides instant results,” said TeKamp. “They learn the business plan. They actually have hands-on experience and they’re put in a situation where they must be ready to start a business after the eight weeks.” TeKamp added that many of the participants who are in the program are former high tech workers who lost their jobs and it’s too early for them to retire. He adds that many students, like Pillon, eventually have the career they’ve always wanted through the program. “Burnout enters the picture as well,” said TeKamp. “One gentleman worked for 25 years in high tech, but was ready to move on start doing interior house painting. He reached a point where he was burned out and to him, being a painter is much more gratifying than working in a high tech job.” Pillon bought her Spencerville farm five years ago in case she or her husband got laid off. Pillon is planning to take her business plan one step further – in addition to having an interactive, handson petting zoo. She will also offer movie nights in a theatre she has set up in her garage and will also be converting her detached garage into a party room where people can host events and even serve as a meeting place for different organizations. “This is something I want to keep go-

ing,” said Pillon. “If I can keep it a success, I don’t want to go back to high tech. I prefer this lifestyle and I enjoy teaching the kids about the animals.” After 15 years of the program, TeKamp said the success rate of businesses after they’ve been through the program is about 70 per cent. The other 30 per cent that aren’t successful are usually due to a spouse moving, or the business owner getting offered a full-time job. “Realization hits home that if business is not doing well, full time employment is not a bad thing to fall back on,” he said. Most importantly, TeKamp said people’s attitudes often change once they’ve been through the program. “When they first come in, everyone’s a little grumpy and sad and feels someone in this world let them down,” he said. “But when they get over that psychological barrier, they find out it’s not the end of the world. Then they find a niche.” As for Pillon, she said the program let her take the risk to start her own business. “Being part of the SEB program means that I continue to collect my Unemployment Insurance during the startup phase of my business,” said Pillon. “This gives me the security to know that there will be food on the table and that our expenses can be met.”

Kemptville resident Sara Landriault was recently prevented from applying for a job at Citizenship and Immigration Canada because of her race. Now the federal government is getting involved since she couldn’t continue with her online application after she indicated that she was white. “I felt like I’d been kicked in the stomach,” said Landriault. “I got up [that morning] and I was thinking that I need a job. Nine years of being at home - working evenings and weekends - is not enough to cover the bills.” Gord Brown, Leeds-Grenville Member of Parliament, made a statement supporting Landriault. “I support inclusion in the public service but not discrimination,” said Brown. Treasury Board President Stockwell Day and Minister of Citizen, Immigration and Multiculturalism Jason Kenny also responded to recent news reports.

They called to review the provisions of the Public Service Employment Act as well as any other related policies and practices to make sure all Canadians have an equal opportunity to apply for positions in the public service. “While we support diversity in the public service, we want to ensure that no Canadian is barred from opportunities in the public service based on race or ethnicity,” said Day. Citizenship and Immigration Canada didn’t return phone calls from the Advance. On the other side of the country, Brandon Stiles works for the First Nations Employment Society in Vancouver, British Columbia. In its mission statement, the society said it provides support and opportunities to Aboriginal people and helps to increase employment through building and promoting self-reliance. Stiles said while he understands the attempt to try and hire more Aboriginal and visible minorities in the public service, he personally doesn’t agree with

how Citizenship and Immigration Canada went about their hiring process. “As a First Nations person myself, equity types of opportunities are needed to give First Nations people more opportunity to be able to participate in the workforce,” he said. “However I wouldn’t agree with a white person being excluded just because she’s white.” He added that when his organization posts jobs on their website, they prefer that First Nations people apply. However, Stiles said that if they interview someone who’s First Nations and they’re not qualified, the organization will look outside the community. “Because of our history, a lot of our Aboriginal people don’t have the qualifications. It’s not to say there are no First Nations people qualified, but it’s just harder to find,” he said. “If they’re really trying to bring more First Nations people into these jobs, then targeting [these groups] isn’t such a bad

idea. Everyone should have the opportunity to be interviewed.” Landriault - who was originally born in England - was particularly drawn to Citizenship and Immigration Canada because she just became a Canadian citizen last month. “I’ve always been Canadian. I’ve been here since I was two,” she said. “I had experience in citizenship because I’ve always been a landed immigrant. I’ve gone through the paperwork and I know what I’m doing. And then this happened.” 397823-30-10

House of Lazarus receives meaty donation JOSEPH MORIN Joe.morin@metroland.com

The House of Lazarus in Mountain is the recipient of $1,000 worth of nutritious meat courtesy of the Dundas Cattlemen’s Association. On Wednesday, July 21, Rose Stewart, the president of the Dundas Cattlemen’s Association dropped by the House of Lazarus in Mountain to officially mark the donation occasion. The beef was donated by the association, passed over to the Tommy Henderson Custom Meat in Chesterville and the result was 700 pounds of beef wrapped up in one pound packages. The association donated 350 pounds to the Dundas Food Bank and another 350 pounds

to the House of Lazarus “We will be trying to do this every year to help the food banks out,” said Stewart. The Executive Director of the House of Lazarus, Pauline Pratt said, “They (Dundas Cattlemen’s Association) have been donating the meat for the barbecue for our annual 7/14/ kilometer walk and run event each year.” Pratt says the people who have to use the food bank are able to get good nutrition from the food there, but from time to time they are not able to get as much protein as they might need. The donation of meat will help to address that. “The beef will last approximately two and a half to three months at our current rate of service,” said Pratt.

The Dundas Cattlemen’s Association has donated 700 pounds of meat to the House of Lazarus and to the Dundas County Food Bank. Left to right are: Kim Merkly, the food bank’s coordinator, Pauline Pratt, Executive Director, Rose Stewart, president of the Dundas County Food Bank and Dave Stewart an association

Kemptville Advance - JULY 29, 2010

JOSEPH MORIN

joe.morin@metroland.com

Sometimes good people in a bad situation just need a break. Glen Perrault and Karina Bauer along with daughter Leila have had a run of bad luck that no one wants to share. The family of three lost their home in Kemptville to a fire in 2008. In late September of 2009 they suffered through a second house fire. Both fires were determined to be accidental with no one to blame, but still Karina and Glen could not help but feel a bit intimidated by their run of bad luck. These days, in 2010, the family has relocated and thanks to their community and the generosity of Colautti Construction Ltd. and the construction company’s associated partners in the construction industry, they have been able to restore a living space in the area. This time they hope their run of bad luck has ended. How Colautti Construction Ltd. and Karina and Glenn got together is an example of how those who need some help find it from unlikely sources. The North Grenville community had heard about the challenges that Karina, Glen and Leila were facing. Wendy Pettit lives in the Merrickville area and works at Colautti Construction Ltd. She had heard about the two house fires and wanted to find a way to offer some help to the family. She told the company’s vice president Dennis Colautti about the family and wondered if there was something they could do to help. Colautti’s is the kind of organization that promotes a giving culture inside their own shop. “Every Christmas I find a few families who need some help,” said Dennis who encourages his staff to take the money that

they would normally spend on Christmas parties and gifts to one another and spend it on a family in need. “We are very much like a family here,” he added. Colautti believes that an organization is only as good as the people in it and feels that a community works much the same way. “After the house fire, we spent about five days at the Howard Johnston courtesy of the red cross and the Salvation Army,” remembers Karina. She can remember that despite all of the help from the Red Cross and the community their future was looking grim.” our lives were in disarray and to complicate matters Leila fell ill. “We had no money. After the first fire our credit had suffered. The family would not give up. “We had been in this exact position before,” said Karina, “and we had made it.” Needing some help in collecting building materials to be used at their new location, Glen and Karina asked for help. “The first stores I visited were the Home Depot and Reno Depot.” Several Home Depot stores, the Barrhaven location, the Woodroffe and Baseline stores helped us out. Glen and Karina began working to fix up the building. “My husband and I were living in the machine shed which had no running water, no bathroom, no heat source, and no where to cook,” said Karina. Eventually the couple were about to get the inside of the garage framed, built two upper bedrooms, set up a kitchen with a fridge stove, sink, cabinets and running water. All the while Leila had to stay at Karina’s mothers in Ottawa while the couple worked to turn the garage into a home. It was at this time that the Canadian Tire Store in Kemptville called them up

and asked if they would like to meet with the folks from Colautti Construction Ltd. At that first meeting they were given warm jackets by Colautti and the offer of a plan. Dennis and Wendy had a plan to get the work done and to send Glen, Karina and Leila to a bed and breakfast to wait while their home was completed. Helping out someone is second nature to the staff at the construction company. They met with Glenn and Karina who by now had relocated to a piece of farmland and were living in an old garage. Their front door was actually the old garage door. “They were living in the shell of the building,” said Dennis “It was really an old storage and machine shed.” Wendy and Dennis had a frank talk with Karina and Glen about what they wanted to do. “They wanted to stay there,” said Dennis. At the time of the meeting Glen had been digging, by hand, a hole in the back yard to put in a holding tank. That was where Dennis decided to start. “We did not know how we could help them but knew we would find a way,” said Dennis. He said that giving all of the help to Glen and Karina that they needed, was the result of the combined efforts of many of the people who worked along with Colautti in the construction industry. The first step was to replace the garage door. The next job was to provide the family with a workable septic system. “We knew an engineering firm who designed septic systems,” said Dennis. There was also cooperation from the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority who issues the permits for septic tanks. “Colautti Construction ended up arrang-

ing for stone for the driveway, guard rails for a small bridge that approaches the property, a new front door, another extra door to be used as an exit. and new windows. “They had an idea and we simply interpreted that,’ remembers Dennis. The entire job took around two and one half months. “We pretty well had people there every day,” said Dennis. The staff at Colautti’s made sure that the project was as good as it could be. Project manager Gerry Podlesny kept things on track and the company partners Steve Weiss, Alistair Miller , Chris Jacobs and Dennis Colautti supported their staff all the way through the project. Karina says that there was help coming in from everywhere. Home Depot helped out with a bathtub, sink, wood, plumbing and wiring material. The Canadian Tire Store in Kemptville raised $1,000 in donations and then matched that total for $2,000. “I have to thank Claire Larabie of the Jump Start Foundation and Dan Hamel of the Canadian Red Cross,” said Karina, “as well as Kemptville’s Spin Cycle who washed all of the clothing I was able to salvage from the fire and the Kemptville Fire Department and Chief Tim Bond, Stephanie Gilmer of the Salvation Army and Georgia Carpet Outlet Mill who gave us the carpeting we used in our upstairs bedroom and laminate flooring for he bathroom and entrance.” Now that all of the work has been completed Glen, Karina and Leila have a real home to live in. “Our home is a wonderful escape,” said Karina. “It is a safe haven in a world where so many terrible things can happen. Truthfully, this place is everything and more than I could have imagined.” For a photo of one of the the final products turn to page 12.

During the 1940s, 50s and 60s, Osgoode Township filled with Dutch settlers. This weekend, the Osgoode Township Historical Society and Museum honoured these settlers in Vernon with the 34th annual Pioneer Day and Strawberry Social. “I’ve been living here all my life, and I didn’t realize there were so many Dutch settlers,” said Kim Sheldrick of the historical society. This year’s pioneer day featured Dutch music, crafts and traditions. There were also heritage displays, demonstrators and antique cars as well as fun games for children. Also included in the festivities was a barbecue and a Dutch

music group that performed throughout the day. Sheldrick said new to the event this year were a couple local authors on site who have written books on the Dutch settlement. “Two of our members are writing books about the settlers,” she said. Sheldrick added that this year’s pioneer day comes during the 65th anniversary of the liberation of Holland. She said this year she hoped to get attendance up. “We kind of hit a plateau after 34 years,” she said. “Some people new to Osgoode don’t know about the museum. Dutch settlement is a very important part of our history.” The Osgoode Township Historical Society is located in Vernon, Ontario. Learn more about them K.

City urges federal government to reinstate long-form census BLAIR EDWARDS blair.edwards@metroland.com

The City of Ottawa’s taxpayers will be on the hook to pay for statistics research as a result of changes to the federal census, said Kanata North Coun. Marianne Wilkinson. The federal government recently announced it will scrap the mandatory longform census, replacing it with a shorter voluntary one. But municipalities can’t rely on the statistics provided in a voluntary census, said Wilkinson, forcing them to research information normally provided by Statistics Canada. “It’s going to cost us money to do research we (now) get from the census,” said Wilkinson. Ottawa city council passed a motion earlier this month asking the federal government to reconsider its decision. Municipalities can’t depend on statistical information provided on a voluntary basis, said Wilkinson. “Who’s going to fill it out?” asked Wilkinson. “There’s no way to ensure it’s valid.” Wilkinson said certain statistical groups, such as new Canadians, will be under represented or ignored in the new census. “You would not have valid data you could use,” said Wilkinson. “This is political interference in something that should be absolutely arms length from government.” Canadian municipalities depend on the census data to apply for federal and provincial funding, said Wilkinson. Cities will have to spend money to collect data missing from the new census, she said. “It’s research that’s used all the time by the planning department,” said Kanata South Coun. Peggy Feltmate. “Every municipality uses its information.” John Moser, the city’s general manager of planning and growth management, said the census provides the city with a wealth of information “essential to the

city’s planning and delivery of a wide range of services.” All census information dealing with income, commuting to work, labour force activity, housing costs, tenure, mobility, non-official languages, education, immigration and ethnic origin comes from the long form, said Moser. “The planning and growth management department uses these data . . . to project population, housing and employment needs, for transportation, determining development charges, and other planning initiatives,” he said. “It is staff ’s opinion that the (voluntary survey) will result in response bias, as some economic groups will be more likely to answer the survey than others,” said Moser. “This will skew the results and render the data unreliable.” Moser said city staff will be unable to compare the data to information from the long form, which has been in place for 35 years. “That affects our ability to understand economic and social changes both within the city and in relation to other parts of Canada.” Moser said the city does not have the money to gather the needed statistics independently and lacks the legislative authority to compel residents to provide the information. Since Industry Minister Tony Clement announced the changes to the census in June, politicians, researchers, statisticians and politicians across the country have complained the voluntary census will produce unreliable data. “We believe the changes will harm the integrity and quality of the Canadian statistical system,” said Ian McKinnon, chair of the National Statistics Council, a government-appointed group that advises Statistics Canada, in a statement issued this week. “At the same time, the council recognizes that concerns about intrusiveness and confidentiality should be addressed.” The council said the voluntary census will compromise the value of statistical information provided to municipal gov-

ernments, businesses and social agencies, which is used to plan private and public budgets. Last week Muni Sheikh, the head of Statistics Canada, resigned from the national statistics agency in protest over the decision.

INTRUSIVE Transport Minister John Baird said suggesting the City of Ottawa will have to create their own statistics department to gather census information is “a tad alarmist.” “If this is such a huge issue for the city I can’t believe the mayor hasn’t called me,” said Baird. “I think there’s a bit of political mischief making here.” He declined to elaborate on the comment. Baird said he met with several councillors and the mayor this week during several different public functions and none of them mentioned the city’s problems with changes to the census. “Which surprises me,” said Baird. “If this is such a huge issue, no one picked up the phone and called me.” Baird said some municipal politicians are making political hay out of the issue. “Their biggest priority is how I can (put) myself in the news this week,” said Baird. The Ottawa West-Nepean MP said he has yet to hear complaints about removing specific questions in the census. “Let’s have a discussion based on facts,” said Baird. “If the city has concerns, let me hear them – which questions from the census do they question? “There can be a legitimate difference of opinion,” said Baird. “I think as an MP we should always be listening.” Nepean-Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre said the only change to the census is that it is now voluntary. “That’s because we believe it’s wrong to force people under threat of jail time to provide unnecessary personal information to the government,” said Poilievre. Poilievre said people shouldn’t be

forced to provide unnecessary information such as the number of bedrooms in their homes and what time they go to work. “There will be no additional cost to the City of Ottawa resulting from this change,” said Poilievre. “We believe if we send a voluntary survey to a third of all people, (it will provide) more than enough of a sample size (with) helpful data.” Great Britain and Germany will hold their last census next year, said Poilievre, and some countries such as Denmark haven’t used a census for decades. The federal government will send the voluntary census to a larger number of households, said Poilievre and collect data from an equal number of people on a voluntary basis. “I think all Canadians will do their best to make a contribution to the census,” said Poilievre. Poilievre said companies, municipalities and hospitals already collect statistical data on a voluntary basis to serve their markets. Carleton-Mississippi Mills MP Gordon O’Connor was unavailable for comment. The National Statistics Council is suggesting a compromise to the federal government. The advisory group suggests maintaining the long-form mandatory census but removing the threat of jail time for those who fail to fill out census forms. No statistics were immediately available that indicate anyone has ever been jailed for refusing to complete a census form. The group also recommends a review of the census questions to ensure each is necessary. “The National Statistics Council believes that these steps, taken together can respect the valid concerns voiced by Canadians about privacy and intrusiveness, while ensuring that the vital information that currently flows from the long-form census can be maintained and continues to serve Canadians needs,” said McKinnon in a statement issued this week.

Kempville Kougars take gold in Mississippi CAMERON DUFF Special to the Advance

The Kemptville Kougars U 13 competitive soccer completed the Mississippi Invitational tournament undefeated with a 1-0 shutout victory over Smiths Falls on the new artificial turf field at Beckwith Park July 18. The Kougars reached the finals playing a control and attack style of soccer which kept their opposition on their heels throughout the preliminary and elimination games. Solid defense and goalkeeping was displayed in every game.

It wasn’t until the fourth game that Kemptville conceded their only goal of the tournament in the semi final match against Kanata. It was an excellent strike off a free kick that curved over the wall of defenders into the top corner of the net. The central defense and fullbacks were able to shut down opposition strikers and move the ball quickly to midfielders in the counterattack and supported the offense on every possession. The midfield distributed the ball with authority and took ad-

vantage of overlapping opportunities to threaten and score several times. Strikers worked hard to find the defensive openings and shot with accuracy when opportunities arose. The Kougars worked hard throughout the tournament finishing with a record of 5-0 with 13 goals for and 1 against. The coaches are extremely proud of the effort, skill and positive attitude displayed by every player.

Canada’s Kim Farlinger takes top honours in Traverse City JENNIFER WARD Special to the Advance

Canada’s Kim Farlinger of Ottawa, ON, made her first trip to the Horse Show by the Bay Equestrian Festival in Traverse City, Michigan, a winning one, claiming top honours in the $30,000 Grand Prix of Traverse City on Sunday, July 18. Course designer Pierre Jolicoeur set a track that saw eight horses advance to the jump-off. Four were again able to leave all the rails in place, but none could get the job done faster than Farlinger and Cordoba, who raced through the timers in 36.32 seconds. Scott Lenkart finished second with a time of 37.89 riding Un Prince, and also placed third with a time of 38.35 seconds aboard Impulsive. “Cordoba is a fast horse naturally, and he was in the game for sure,” said Farlinger, 25, of her victory. “I had to go pretty fast, but everything just came up nicely and I did not have to slow down anywhere.” Of the first round, Farlinger noted, “Pierre built a good course, it was technical and long enough with 13 numbered fences, including a triple and a double that was off a difficult bending line.” Cordoba is a 12-year-old bay Dutch Warmblood gelding by Polydox that Farlinger imported as a six-year-old.

purchased for Kinch, 17, of Barbados with future North American Junior and Young Riders’ Championships in mind. Kinch herself rode Acardia 3 to a third place finish in Saturday’s $5,000 NAL Low Junior/Amateur-Owner Classic. “It took 12 hours to get here, but we are used to driving and it was worth it,” complimented Farlinger. “The show is on Traverse Bay off Lake Michigan, and this is very much a summer vacation town. There are lots of restaurants and shopping right on the water.” Farlinger first made a name for herself in 2003 when she won the North American Young Riders’ Championship Junior Individual Gold Medal in 2003, the same year that she made her Grand Prix debut riding del Destino. In 2004, she finished a close second to Ian Millar in the Canadian Show Jumping Championships. While continuing to pursue her Grand Prix aspirations, Farlinger is also developing a reputation as a trainer of horses and riders at all levels, and is committed to the success of her students. Farlinger operates Kim Farlinger Stables, a full service hunter/jumper training facility, in Spencerville, located 40 minutes south of Ottawa and 30 minutes from Brockville.
