News – The joint recreation committee struck by Arnprior and McNab-Braeside councils to come up with proposals to share recreation costs is in jeopardy of folding. At a meeting June 25, Arnprior Mayor David Reid and other members of the committee expressed frustration that McNabBraeside council has already decided that recreation fees the township pays the town will not be coming off the 2014 tax base. “Everywhere you look throughout Ontario, these types of services are paid through the tax base,” said Reid. “The path we’re going down here is not the path most municipalities go.” The issue came to light following the recent issuing of a township survey asking McNab-Braeside residents whether they use town facilities, including the Nick Smith Centre, and programs. In addition, the survey, which was is-

sued along with tax bills, asks property owners whether they agree to financially support the cause. The township is looking at what it is calling a service charge system to cover the costs of residents using town programs and facilities and has been working to establish some of its own recreation programs. McNab-Braeside Deputy Mayor Christine Blimkie said the issue was a council decision and queries regarding it needed to be brought to the council table. The committee decided it will ask Arnprior and then McNab-Braeside to agree to keep the 2013 fees of roughly $150,000 in place for 2014. This will allow the committee to focus on their task of coming up with recreation proposals for the councils to consider. Reid opened the meeting by asking about the township’s formal support for the committee’s goals and objectives. See USER-PAY, Page 3 JOHN CARTER/METROLAND

around the survey is a decision of council.� There’s been much back and forth between councils and staff to determine actual numbers for township residents who use town programs and facilities, with the numbers reportedly given to the township’s recreation committee but yet passed on to council. Anas eventually made a motion to keep the present agreement in place for an additional year at the current values with the provision the joint recreation committee continue to work at coming up with proposals. Once councils have responded to the request, the date of the committee’s next meeting, originally set for July 3, will be determined.

“We had asked and agreed and you agreed you would take that to your council for your support and approval,� Reid said to Blimkie. She countered that agreeing to be part of the committee indicates support, but that the goals and objectives will be coming to the township’s next meeting for formal support. “It’s going to give us the mandate and mission statement to get a long-term agreement,� said Reid. “It’d be nice to know we have the support of council.� Blimkie pointed out the group was to only have been an advisory committee with a goal of providing recommendations. McNab-Braeside resident committee member Ryan Marcellus said for Blimkie not to support anything that comes from the committee is fruitless. “We’re kind of just spinning our wheels,� he said. Committee member Peter Anas said the township’s user pay decision goes against the committee’s mandate. “In those goals and objectives there’s something in there that says the ability to pay shouldn’t be a factor,� he said. “Right off the bat, one of those objectives has been completely ignored.� The committee established goals and a mandate, said Anas. “If one of the councils has already gone ahead and established what they’re doing, it undermines everything.

News - Members of the Renfrew County forestry department are working with research scientist Dr. Krista Ryall of Natural Resources Canada in efforts to halt or slow the invasion of the Emerald Ash Borer that has entered the area at Arnprior. “The number-one thing that will kill the Emerald Ash Borer is Mother Nature,” said Jeff Muzzi, the manager of forestry and trails for Renfrew County. “The whole goal is to slow the spread until Mother Nature or science can take over. We don’t know if we can stop it, but if we can slow it down, maybe we can find solutions before it spreads too far.” Since March the researcher and staff with NRC’s Canadian Forest Service department have been doing research in Renfrew County in efforts to identify potential natural enemies of the invasive and devastating beetle. The Emerald Ash Borer has already been identified as reaching the southern reaches of Renfrew County, in Arnprior. Dr. Ryall is conducting research on about 20 sections of Renfrew County forestry tracts located in areas where the forest cover ranges from four to 94 per cent. The research involves using sticky tracks on native trees within each stand to identify potential enemies that will begin to feed on the Emerald Ash Borer when it arrives. “Emerald Ash Borer basically kills 99 per cent of all ash trees. It has killed millions of trees,” says Dr. Ryall of its devastating impact on trees in the United States and Canada. It has reached Quebec and Ontario as well as such American states as Minnesota and Kansas. EAB is thought to have arrived in North America in the early 1990s, but its presence wasn’t detected until the early 2000s, says Ryall, who works at the Great Lakes Forestry Centre in Sault Ste-Marie. From other research done in southwestern Ontario, Ryall says it is known that eventually some native natural enemy beetles will use the Emerald Ash Borer as a host (i.e., food), but it takes a long time to find them. By bringing her research to Renfrew County, Ryall says, “We’re looking for areas with more forest habitat, with the theory that there should

News - To build up revenue and promote sustainability, big changes may be coming to the Arnprior Airport. These changes may translate in higher costs and fees and the removal of certain discounts for visitors and hanger owners. An extensive review of rates, which looked into other similar sized airports, was undertaken by the town’s marketing and development officer Lindsay Wilson. The results were presented to town council on June 24 and included a total of 14 recommendations. The yearly fee for hanger owners should always be increased by the amount set out in their agreement and compound interest from past years should be added, said Wilson. “Compared to the landing fees that other hanger owners pay, the yearly fee for access and use of the airport is low,” Wilson said. “This increase is set out in their agreement, but the maximum increase should always been taken.” Since there has been no increase in fees in the past few years, the compounded interest should also be added. There may also be an opportunity to look at decreasing the amount or removing fuel discounts. The airport should start charging a landing fee or a set yearly amount for the use of the airport by the Ontario Provincial Police and AirMed. Only one of the surveyed airports charged a fee for the use of their facilities and Arnprior should follow suit, it was recommended. The fee would be discounted and would be low enough to remain a viable option, said Wilson. “It was suggested that a discussion be done with the town’s MP (and MPP) to discuss the option of negotiation supporting funds form other levels of government for the use of our

airport,” said Wilson. Parking fees are one of the lowest across the board. Another recommendation is that fees for overnight parking climb by $2.35 from $5.65 to $8. The fee would be waved for users who purchase gas. Weekly parking fees should be scraped in favour of a weekend parking price. “There really is a bigger market for people flying into the weekend to stay,” said Wilson. The monthly parking price should be increased by $11.10 from $33.90 to $45 and the yearly parking fee should climb by 34.4 per cent from $372 to $500. Most other airports do not offer yearly fees and if they do it averages $900 with electricity and $775 without, said Wilson. “My recommendation that Arnprior Airport starts on the lower end of $500 and gradually increase it if there are no decreases in the yearly amount of tie-downs,” said Wilson. The cost for AV Gas 1100LL should be increased by 6 cents from $1.89 to $1.95. The town already offers the lowest gas costs and the increase would still allow them to remain competitive, said Wilson. It is recommended that the yearly corporate landing fee, which costs $113, be removed. “The Arnprior Airport is the only airport that offers a yearly corporate landing fee,” said Wilson. “After discussions, it’s been found that it really isn’t utilized. Many people looking to land multiple times normally come up with an additional agreement for this.” It roughly equals three single-use landing fees and revenue is being lost for corporations that land more often than that, she added. Though the contract governing the leasing cost for agriculture cannot be changed until 2018, it is recommended that its fees be increased. Contract length should also be discussed. “Also a shorter lease term should be looked at so prices can remain competitive in the con-

Policy on reserve and reserve funds to be reviewed Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

News - The Town of Arnprior is creating of a reserve and reserve fund policy to help promote its vision of a sustainable financial model. Reserve and reserve funds are generally created to prepare and plan for future financial expenditure. “They are there to protect ratepayers from sharp increases in taxes, fees and charges,” said CAO Michael Wildman. Over the past six months, the town staff has been reviewing the policies of other municipalities, their own needs and upcoming capital projects. The policy will guide how the reserves and the reserve funds are treated, who is accountable for managing them and their applicable uses. It also includes such things as definitions, procedures, reserve descriptions and requirement for consistent reporting The policy is new to the town. “We are not alone,” said Wildman. “There are a number of municipalities that still don’t have a reserve and reserve fund policy.” As this would be the first version of the policy, it may become necessary to update or change it. It will be used as a tool for financial planning. “As we move forward on the 2014 budget and all future budgets, we use these policies that council approved to guide our decisionmaking,” said Wildman.

A few of these decisions include eliminating the Vanjumar Drive Fund and moving those surplus funds into the capital Expenditure Reserve Fund, eliminating the sewer rate current and the sewer rate future construction reserves and transferring those funds into the Wastewater Reserve Fund Creating robust reserves is needed as there has been a significant decrease in provincial and federal governmental funding. “This combined with the increases in the regulatory framework is really quite putting the Ontario municipality in a situation where the gap between funding and infrastructure needs continues to get larger,” said Wildman. There is no limit on the amount of reserves that can be created and multiple projects may require multiple reserve funds. There is a minimum and maximum amount attached to each created reserve fund. “That simply means that the town will continue to built those and continue to contribute those until we reach the minimum and in some cases the maximum,” said Wildman. A reserve can be used for any major proposes sought by council and they tend to be little more flexible than reserve funds. Reserve funds often come with statutory requirements attached to them. They are required to be completely segregated from other accounts and the usages of the funds are typically very prescriptive such as the Gas Tax Fund. Council will review the policy at its July 8 meeting.

PROMOTIONS

Cross promotion with large charter companies as well as nearby tourism spots would increase revenue and help create awareness for the local airport. “Arnprior is a better option for them to land if they are looking to enter Kanata,” said Wilson. “We have lower fees then if they would face at the Ottawa Airport. We’d have to work with local taxis and car rental companies to gain support to provide transportation to the places they are looking for.” There are many large tourism draws nearby such as the highest public ski hill in Ontario, the Calabogie race track and award-winning whitewater river rafting that would benefit from a advertising partnership. “There are great opportunities to cross pro-

mote with these facilities and I feel they would be open doing so,” said Wilson. Promoting rental options for runway and terminal would bring in more revenue as the airport is the one of the only one that does so. “We feel it could be very utilized if it’s promoted more,” said Wilson. There is land at the airport ready for development, including plots zoned residential in the hopes of creating a fly-in community. Marketing packages and sale material should be created to help promote these available land opportunities. “Due to the high cost to connecting into the municipal services, it’s important to have a rough idea of the cost of the process readily available,” said Wilson. Investors and interest parties should be sought at aviation-related conferences. In order to make sure the recommendations are working, airport traffic should be carefully tracked. It’s essential for budget calculations to know who comes in and out, said Wilson. The suggestions were well received by council.

EMERALD ASH BORER - COMING TO AN ASH TREE NEAR YOU This little beetle is a highly destructive insect native to the Asian Continent. It was discovered in the Windsor/ Detroit corridor in 2002. It has since destroyed millions of trees. It was discovered in the City of Ottawa in 2008. Since that time the City of Ottawa, Leeds and Grenville have been quarantined and the movement of ash wood and wood products is prohibited. The City of Ottawa removed 800 affected trees in the winter of 2011. The handling of ash trees that have been affected by emerald ash borer can take special techniques. Gardiner Tree Trimming & Removal Ltd. strives to use the safest methods possible to remove dead and dangerous trees of all species. Our methods use equipment such as a crane, bucket or excavator as the job requires. Gardiner Tree Trimming & Removal Ltd. offers TreeAzin® Systemic Insecticide. It is an injectable insecticide formulated with azadirachtin, an extract of neem tree seeds (not neem oil). TreeAzin is registered by Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) (PCP 30559). Ontario’s Ministry of the Environment (MOE) scheduled TreeAzin® as a class 4 pesticide or “least hazardous that is

commercial”, with a class 11 active ingredient. TreeAzin is exempt from Ontario’s Cosmetic Pesticide Ban Act.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR: EAB is a slender, elongate insect about 1/3 - 1/2 inch long. It is widest just behind the head, gradually tapering back to the abdomen. It is a bright iridescent green to copper-green color, often with a copper colored area behind the head. Its body underneath the wings is a purplish-magenta color. Trees typically are killed in two to four years. When trees are first attacked by EABs, the symptoms are inconspicuous and hard to notice. By the end of the second year, thinning foliage and dieback in the crown begins to be

apparent. By the third year, there is severe dieback and little foliage. Ash can tolerate small numbers of EAB larvae but trees are girdled and killed when populations become more numerous. When the adults emerge, they create small, 1/8 inch D-shaped exit holes that are characteristic of this insect, although they can be hard to see. If you were to remove the bark on the trunk of a tree showing these symptoms, you should also find the larval galleries. Woodpecker attacks on ash could also indicate the presence of emerald ash borers.

EDITORIAL

Quit bugging us Nature sometimes conspires to put a wrench in even the most carefully planned event. The Canada day fireworks in Arnprior are a perfect example. Lured in by a powerful spotlight at Bell Park, a cloud of mayflies descend upon the crowd at that vantage point, covering every square inch. Nothing and nobody was spared, not even a couple of screaming children who altered between setting them on fire with sparklers and running away. The pests covered the park’s spotlights like a nefarious mist. The mating call, the damp weather and their survival instincts have created a minor pestilence across town. But they aren’t the only six legs beasties that are taking over the town. Despite the quarantine in Ottawa, the emerald ash borer has crossed the border into the town. It’s official. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has confirmed that this shiny green bug have been found in local trees. These little beetles consume the soft tender new wood in a zigzag pattern that destroys a tree’s ability to absorb nutriments. Foliage thins and its wood becomes worthless and the dead

tree becomes a safety liability. The cost is high. Ash trees can be given TreeAzin as a preventive measure or as a treatment, but ultimately the ravages may be too great. In those cases, the entire tree will have to be taken down at the property owner’s expense. The price can fluctuate between $700 and $1,000 per tree, leaving a large dent in people’s pocketbooks. The CFIA has imposed movement restrictions, which prohibit the movement of all ash materials - such as logs, branches and wood chips - and all species of firewood from the affected site. Owners of the affected properties will be notified of these restrictions. As more survey work is completed during the year, further regulatory measures may be considered. This will greatly affect tourism, wood industries and ratepayer’s coffers as well the environment. When such thing can cause so much turmoil, it becomes integral that will all look out for signs, obey the restrictions to prevent the spread to the rest of Renfrew County and stop it before it is too late.

Too many residents not responsible for their garage To the Editor: You own your garbage. It has become an issue when one sees their neighbour out before work on each garbage pick-up day to gather refuse that’s strewn over his/her lawn and driveway because their neighbour obviously put their garbage out the night before pick-up and didn’t have a garbage can to keep it contained – thus making it a feast for the local raccoon, skunk, and cat population. This is unacceptable folks. I ask that everyone please take responsibility for your own garbage habits and be considerate of your neighbours. It’s not his/her responsibility to pick up your trash off the street the morning after you put it out and I commend those who have the

respect for the community and do just that. As well, it’s not the responsibility of our garbage collectors to pick up trash that isn’t held securely in a bag. Have you ever really noticed just how hard those fellows work? I have seen their hard work many times on garbage day and I think it’s important to say that they aren’t slackers by any stretch of the imagination. They work harder than most and deserve our respect. It’s always important to put ourselves in someone else’s shoes for a moment to appreciate and understand what they go through. How many of us would actually like to go to work each day and have to pick up rotting food, dirty Kleenexes or diapers, or someone else’s discarded underwear from their work space?

Uh, not! Have some respect for us all and pay attention to your garbage habits! I have a couple of hints for those who don’t put a can at the end of their driveway because they don’t want it blowing down the street on windy days (which is another dilemma for another letter). 1. Put your trash out on pick-up day before you leave for work. 2. Spray your bags with a simple solution of dish soap and water to ward off critters. Easy remedies to a growing problem and they work. Remember residents – you own your garbage.

or the financial bungle of the Red Pines/Braeside dock. If we are deciding where our money is going, then shouldn’t all the options be on the table? I don’t even know where Red Pines is! Why would I want to pay upwards of $200,000 for a dock? This is misrepresentation of the worst sort.

Judy Bedore Arnprior

Not fair to survey on some expenditures and not others To the Editor: Regarding the recent letter that was sent out to McNab-Braeside taxpayers, we were asked to choose an option; whether we would support or not support the Arnprior Library, the Renfrew Library, the Nick Smith Centre and the

Web Poll

We need to hold this mayor and council fully accountable for all their blunders and not penalize taxpayers. I am very disappointed with the whole situation. Is there any way we can have a re-election?

Return vital services to tax base

Support recreation, library, ask township council to reconsider To the Editor: I just received the Recreation and Library Non Resident Service Agreement Survey from the Township of McNab-Braeside. This process seems to be based on several questionable assumptions that everyone will return the survey, be honest in their responses, pay if they say they will and have a legitimate reason for not paying if they elect not to. We all agree that taxes are too high and council is under continued pressure to cut costs. (Is

this survey, invoicing and follow-up a justifiable cost?) I understand why tax subsidy for these services is seen by many as an unfair burden to the taxpayer. If you don’t use them why should you pay? I understand this initial reaction more than many. I’ve never had children. Why should I pay to educate other peoples’ children? It was their choice to have them – they should bear the expense. On the surface this is logical

reasoning. If you look beyond the surface though you realize that it’s in everyone’s best interests to ensure that all children receive an education. Imagine a community where only the children of those who can afford it, are educated. Then, at this time of rising obesity, numbing video games and reality shows, imagine a community where only the children of those who can afford it, have access to fitness and enrichment offered by recreation

centres and libraries. Have we reached the level of ‘every man for himself’? This survey is pointing us in that direction. I’m urging survey recipients to not only respond with financial support but to ask council to reconsider their decision to return these vital services to the tax base for the good of everyone in the community.

Comments not setting a good example To the Editor: I’m happy to be here in beautiful Arnprior to spend a couple of weeks with my daughter and my wonderful grandchildren. One day last week, the kids were on the computer checking their Facebook pages when they started to chatter about someone who had lost their job. I asked what it was about and they told me that the person who organized youth dances wasn’t going to be doing it anymore. Curious, I asked to see their Facebook page so I could make some sense of what they were talking about. I was absolutely appalled and disgusted at what I read! It was apparent that someone under the employ of the Town was let go from their position

and some people were posting comments about it and probably speculating on what happened. If the speculation was somewhat disconcerting, then the actual comments that a few people posted were downright disturbing. A couple of people who proudly identified themselves as mothers of children associated with the Town’s programs, made vulgar comments repeatedly toward the Town and its employees. And it doesn’t end there; what was most disturbing of all was a comment posted by a child. With the nonsensical wording, the child clearly had no understanding at all of what she was commenting on, but she did

manage to make her swearing and cursing quite clear. From a child. I then read a post from a young woman who proudly proclaimed that she had quit her position in protest of her boss’ dismissal. Judging by the sheer number of posts about the dismissal, I would think there are a lot of people with questions and concerns as to what was happening. Rather than running away, perhaps she could have helped to alleviate some of the worries that families were having about the future of the dances and programs? These hostile and negative people accomplished nothing. Rather than trolling Facebook

and proclaiming their ignorance by commenting on things they really know nothing about, their time would be better spent striving to be positive, upstanding role models for their children and for the community. I feel bad for the young woman who lost her job and my grandchildren speak very highly of her, but they also understand that people gain and lose jobs everyday in the real world. They understand it because we chose to have a conversation about it. I can only hope that these hateful, negative people will choose to do the same the next time they encounter a difficult situation.

Super Arrow project deserves support American plane we just get a plane. If we make our own Canadian plane then we support the Canadian economy, the development of aviation (as Canadians would never settle for just any old piece of equipment) and the Canadian brand. As a side note we just brought home hundreds of soldiers that now have nothing to work on. Most of them have two things. An engineering degree and a family to feed. You can learn about the plane yourself at www.superarrow.ca.

One may ask, why are we not looking in to this? Well I asked the same thing. I first contacted some Conservative MPs to inform them about this great opportunity. After sending them an email, I waited over two weeks and no response was given. These are MPs that are crying, “Oh the youth today are so uninvolved.� Well no shit. What do they expect? Would you be interested in a system that ignores you? There is only one man that

seems to respect his people, Mr. Mulcair. Within seconds of sending him an email, he replied, saying thank you and that he would get back to me ASAP. Sure it wasn’t a great reply, but it showed respect. Well, Mr. Mulcair, you gain some support today and I hope that you will continue to show respect to your voters, the Canadian people, and even Canadian projects such as the Super Arrow.

To the Editor: By now I think we’ve all heard of the F-35s. Those who haven’t have probably seen them through the OC Transpo propaganda. No one, however, seems to know about the Canadian alternative. They call it the Super Arrow. Now I know what you’re all thinking. It would cost too much. In the short term that’s probably correct, but in the long term we actually save money. Think about it.

NEWS

Fire departments’ super volunteer honoured with Queen’s Jubilee medal John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

News – The many volunteer exploits by McNab-Braeside resident Karen Barsoski on behalf of the township fire department are just the tip of the iceberg. Barsoski has received the Queen’s Jubilee medal for going above and beyond in her work at Petawawa as well as for her volunteering with the McNab-Braeside fire department. Her volunteer work is renowned with the CFB Petawawa Fire Department, where she has been employed as an FR-1 firefighter since November 2008. She organizes all their fundraisers, decorating for holidays, car seat clinics and shift dinners. Recognizing that she also leads many volunteer and fire safety initiatives for the McNabBraeside volunteer fire department, she was nominated by her superiors in Petawawa for the medal. The military base’s fire chief Barry Nagora explains that Barsoski has organized and run the fire department’s Christmas Party and also puts together a party for the children including Santa with presents and candy. “Every year Karen also organizes other events for cancer such as October Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Movember and is heavily involved with the Child Restraint Clinic that is ran various times throughout the year,” he added. “Four years ago Karen started a monthly

Newsletter called ‘House Bells’, which we all look forward to reading the articles and personal stories from the department. “She always adds the seasonal touches to the department by organizing and decorating the building for the various holidays and you never know what’s around the corner when it comes to that one day of the year which is Oct. 31, Halloween.” COUNTLESS ACTS OF VOLUNTEER WORK

Nagora pointed out that away from his department Barsoski volunteers her services as a captain with the McNab-Braeside Fire Department, in which she wears many hats including the Fire Prevention Officer and the events co-ordinator. Some of the events include the annual winter carnival, barbecues and various fundraising activities used to purchase extra equipment in the department, he added. “Karen has also brought the crew she works with closer together by organizing daily meals and you can always tell when her platoon is on duty by the aroma of the cooking spare ribs or other dishes that are cooked throughout the day. “You never know what ideas or events she is dreaming up next, but guaranteed when Karen is in on shift you are bound to get a knock on the door for something else she is planning or looking into ideas for to make our department a more enjoyable place to work.” Barsoski was presented with the Queen’s Jubilee Medal in a ceremony at the base June 17.

Investigating Beavers in Norway: Part I MICHAEL RUNTZ Nature’s Way Lifestyle - Currently I am in southern Norway photographing Eurasian Beavers for an upcoming book. Norway is a beautiful country replete with mountains and valleys, rivers and fjords. It is also home to a burgeoning beaver population, which is why I am here. Now, going to a foreign land to photograph a different species in a two-week period is admittedly a bit audacious. But an intimate knowledge of the behaviour of our beavers gave me confidence, as did having guidance from Frank Rosell, the world expert on Eurasian beavers. I arrived to a week of rain: more than 100 mm fell in six days. But there were brief windows of opportunity partly because daylight hours extend from about 3 a.m. to 11 p.m. Yet, finding beavers turned out to be challenging because in Norway they rarely build dams or create ponds. Most inhabit flowing rivers and are active only from late evening to very early morning. They are also shy because they are hunted.

For two days I saw no beavers. Then researchers took me by boat to several active sites on a large river. I was surprised by how insubstantial the lodges were, nothing more than a scattering of sticks along steep banks covered in overhanging trees. Unlike our beavers, most Eurasian Beavers dig bank dens using sticks primarily as awnings over underwater entrances. Eventually we saw six beavers but in poor light because of heavy cloud cover and the late hour. A couple of days passed with only fleeting glimpses of beavers. I was getting worried. Then I discovered two new locations, one in a large creek and the other in a pond. For the past few days I arrived at the sites by 4 a.m. and returned at 7 p.m. Finally I have observed and photographed Eurasian Beavers. Eurasian Beavers look very much like ours with a few subtle differences. One is that their MICHAEL RUNTZ tails are narrower. It also seems to me that their ears are smaller, which would make sense for An Eurasian Beavers eats alder leaves along the river bank in Norway where most live. They look much like Canadian beavers but have narrower tails. an animal living in flowing water. Otherwise the two species are twins, which is why they were once thought to be the same placed it on a beaver’s scent mound (unlike our another trait shared with our species.

Letter from CEO and Chair of the Board The Patient, Resident and Client Experience The vision of Arnprior Regional Health (ARH) is “to be recognized for exemplary care” and to this end we spent the past year focusing on improving the experience of the patient, resident and client. Using externally administered surveys, ARH tracked only scores of excellence (5 out of 5) and excluded scores of very good (4 out of 5). In each of our core services – hospital, nursing home and assisted living services – the Board of Directors set goals for 2012/13 for the percentage of respondents who would rate their care as being excellent. We tracked the results all year to ensure our process improvements yielded a better patient experience. The year end results are outstanding!

Hospital (ER and Inpatient) Grove Assisted Living Services

Goal Rating Care as Excellent 50% 34% 35%

Year End Results Rating Care as Excellent 56% 58% 70%

To achieve these results Arnprior Regional Health adopted a number of strategies and best practices known to impact the experience of the patients, residents, and clients. For example, at the hospital our Patient Flow Coordinator makes a post discharge phone call to patients and asks, “What went well, and what could we do better?” All results, both good and bad, are then passed along to members of the care team. This sharing of information enables us to recognize individuals for service excellence and also to action items for care or service improvement. It wasn’t just the survey results that provided guidance for improvement. ARH also collected information and feedback from many other sources, such as ADMH Patient Family Advisory Council, Grove Family Council, Community Ambassador Breakfasts, Nurse Leader Rounding, and community engagement. All were consulted as part of our strategic planning exercise. Arnprior Regional Health is most proud of our commitment to provide a great patient, resident and client experience, and we will continue to make improvements with respect to the experience of those requiring our care.

Assisted Living Services Program

The Adult Day Program

ay and Margaret Gauthier moved to Arnprior two years ago. Married for 53 years, they easily finish each other sentences. In the last few years they’ve had some health concerns. This led to a period of time where they were unable to live together as there was no option to live at home while receiving care.

R

Now personal support workers (PSW) visit clients, like Margaret, in their homes to assist with personal care, meal preparation, medication management and light housekeeping, as well providing other services and supports that allow seniors to remain in their own homes. The initial funding received in 2012 from the Champlain LHIN was for 10 clients, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Ray and Margaret are grateful for this program, “Living in our home is what we want. The ladies who come to see us have been helping Margaret with her physiotherapy on her arm. On a scale of 1 to 5 with 5 being excellent, these girls are a 5 plus. They help her with her shower and help us change the beds, they make us food, they get Margaret walking, we just really can’t ask for better.”

he United Way of Renfrew County and the Grove Nursing Home have had a working relationship for more than ten years.. In 2002, the United Way of Renfrew County agreed to provide funding to the Adult Day Program at the Grove, and they have continued to provide funding to the program on an annual basis. The Adult Day Program began as an initiative designed, and run, by volunteers. Over the years the program expanded and hired staff to facilitate the program. The main focus is to offer social interaction, mental stimulation and physical activities for clients with the early stages of Alzheimer’s and Dementia. In addition, clients are able to enjoy a hot nutritious meal. The program also provides respite and an informal support network for care givers.

T

Kathleen Nunn coordinates this program through her office at the Grove and has been pleased with the success. “We have a viable option to offer seniors that supports them in their desire to stay at home. Some clients are visited multiple times every day, while others like the Gauthier’s receive care three times a week. Clients determine their care requirements in collaboration with us. We also work closely with other services, such as Meals on Wheels and programs offered through Arnprior Braeside McNab Seniors at Home and the CCAC.” In November 2012, the Champlain LHIN approved funding for an additional 10 clients based upon community needs and the success of the program during the first year. ■

“The Day Program has benefited our entire family. I can go to work and have peace of mind knowing he is safe and that experienced staff members are taking care of him. He feels involved and is happy to attend. It gives him the opportunity to socialize and feels like he is part of the community”. Vicki, family member of a participant.

Meals on Wheels Partnership rnprior Regional Health was awarded the opportunity to be the provider of meals for the Meals on Wheels program operated by Arnprior Braeside McNab Seniors at Home.

A

The need for residents of our community to have a Hot Meals on Wheels Program is necessary in order to assist our elderly and disabled community members to remain in their homes. Having a hot meal delivered several times a week improves quality of life for residents living at home with limitations. It not only provides a nourishing meal, but also allows for some social interaction with the delivery volunteer as they drop off the meal and it is another check in with someone who cares. “The program saved my life”, said Bev Bourne. “I didn’t even have enough energy to make a

bowl of soup when I got out of the hospital. I looked forward to the hot bowl of soup each day. I would recommend them to anyone” stated Mrs. Bourne. This program is currently averaging 40 delivered meals per week. This is a great community partnership for both ARH and Arnprior Braeside McNab Seniors at Home Program, both of which have a common mission to assist those in need in our community. We are able to meet the needs of our clients by offering a three week menu cycle and are also able to meet any therapeutic dietary requirements. The meals are made at the Grove Nursing Home kitchen, where the staff is well aware of the specific needs of the elderly. ■

Over the last few years, the program has expanded to accommodate more individuals from our community. Today, ten years since inception, the Adult Day Program is offered three days per week with more than 23 clients and families benefiting. ■

Auxiliary – Year in Review

visit www.ArnpriorRegionalHealth.ca 18 Arnprior Chronicle-Guide EMC - Thursday, July 4, 2013

he Auxiliary to Arnprior Regional Health once again had a busy year. The year started by hosting the Regional Conference for Ontario East. Auxiliary fundraising efforts contributed $100,000 towards the digital mammography unit and an additional $25,000 for the Grove for equipment. For two weeks the Opportunity Shop closed to allow for renovations resulting in a brighter and more spacious store. Total sales at the Opportunity Shop were just shy of $150,000! Over 18,925 volunteer hours were spent assisting patients, residents or clients at ADMH, or the Grove, supporting the Gift Shop and the Opportunity Shop, as well as participating in the sewing program or the HELPP Lottery. ■

Chief of Staff Report to the Community

Cardiac Rehab

Dr. Christine Schriver I would like to take this opportunity to report on some of the improvements pertaining to quality of patient care implemented over the past year.

Hand hygiene compliance has improved amongst all staff. We continue to audit on a monthly basis all staff’s hand hygiene practices and we are happy to report that our compliance is currently at 98%. Our rate now exceeds the provincial average of 85.6 %. Thanks to all staff for making this a priority to help prevent the transmission of hospital acquired infections. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has a high re-admission rate for our patients due to the nature of the disease. There has been increased focus on patient education, in collaboration with the Family Health Team (FHT) and the ARH COPD working group. A big factor for patients doing less well at home has been improper use of inhalers which can lead to re-admission. We are now demonstrating to patients how to appropriately take their inhaled medications in addition to enhanced teaching during admissions. ARH has introduced a new program where interested patients can follow up with a health care professional at the FHT for ongoing education and support. In addition, patients are now sent home with specific written “action plans” and pre-booked appointments with their family doctors. These are just a few of the quality improvements we have implemented that have seen our goals either met or exceeded over the past year. ■

Medication Management at the Grove

O

ver the past year at the Grove we undertook an initiative to reduce the number of medications each resident was taking. This began in the interest in overall health of the residents, and in response to benchmark data indicating our residents had a slightly higher use of scheduled and prn (as needed) medications compared to other longterm care facilities. We began our initiative by focusing on antipsychotic medications, because of their side effect profile in this demographic of the population. Antipsychotics can contribute to falls in the elderly, while also increasing the risk of stroke and sometimes death. Behaviors of dementia wax and wane and, therefore, antipsychotic medication should be reviewed on a regular basis. Antipsychotics are appropriately prescribed in long-term care for behaviors such as exit seeking, aggression towards other residents and also aggression towards staff trying to administer care. Antipsychotic medications cannot be stopped suddenly; they must be tapered. A clinical team at the Grove including our pharmacist from Medisystem developed an action plan. Staff and physicians were all made aware of our initiative. Dr. Villis and Jacqueline, our pharmacist, targeted residents with stable behaviors for several months and began to try and reduce their antipsychotics. Nursing staff were responsible for monitoring changes in residents’ behaviors. Weekly informal meetings were held to discuss progress and track results. It is a very slow process as we could only reduce medications on several patients at a time.

In the meantime our pharmacist while doing medication reviews of the charts targeted external medications residents were using as well as the drugs classified “as needed” (i.e. Tylenol) that had not been used in some time and made recommendations based on their usage. At the beginning of this quality improvement initiative, medications were 12.6 per resident. They are now 10.5 per resident. Providing residents of the Grove with excellent care doesn’t end here. While antipsychotics are continually being reviewed, other medications also continue to be reviewed to ensure residents are receiving the highest quality of care in a safe environment. Weekly visits from the Medisystem pharmacist will continue to help keep track of our residents’ medication and health issues. Continued vigilance and communication regarding our quality improvement initiatives is key to achieving our vision of being recognized for exemplary care. ■

n 2012, Arnprior Regional Health added The Cardiac Rehabilitation Program to our clinical services through our Ontario Telemedicine Network (OTN). As an OTN site, ARH is set up for videoconferencing using a private and secure Internet connection and have been offering teledermatology, telepsychiatry, telenephrology and teleendocrinology. The Cardiac Rehabilitation Program is administered by The University of Ottawa Heart Institute (UOHI) and serves Eastern Ontario. Fourteen sites, including ARH, offer this program to patients living throughout the region to benefit from comprehensive risk factor management and secondary prevention, in the form of cardiac rehabilitation. Patients returning home following a cardiac episode were not always making their follow up appointments. They were overwhelmed with the amount of information they received in hospital and often forgot about the cardiac rehabilitation package. If they did remember about the program they were required to fill in a questionnaire and mail it to the UOHI before the cardiac rehab process could even begin. This process captured only 27% of cardiac rehab patients. In addition to the paperwork hurdle, many patients also expressed doubt that they would be able to attend in person. There were many reasons why people couldn’t get to their follow up appointments: their age, lack of access to a vehicle, difficulties with traveling and parking, or not wanting to burden their family members. To encourage more people to attend cardiac rehab, some changes were implemented. Patients were pre-booked for assessment appointments before leaving the UOHI and their information was given to their regional hospital (ARH). The telemedicine coordinator (TMC) at the regional hospital would then call the patient. This call would remind the patient they were referred, help them fill out their questionnaire, and explain the cardiac rehabilitation process. The TMC further assists the patient when they come to ARH for subsequent visits. In December 2012 the first patient for the Cardiac Rehab Program came to their booked appointment at ARH and consulted through videoconferencing with a member of the UOHI cardiac rehab staff. The UOHI are now seeing 70% of people make their follow up appointments. ■

Thank You A huge thank you to board members who completed their terms this past year: JoAnne McLean, Dana Dingman, Sue How, and Ted Kelly. We are always looking for other community minded individuals to join us. Please contact the PIC office for more information.

Over the last year, we have seen the fall rates of patients admitted at the hospital decline. In April 2012, the fall rate was 8.77 per 1000 patient days. By March 31, 2013 we had reduced the number to 6.26 falls per 1000 patient days. Much work has gone into the training of nursing staff according to the recently completed falls prevention program. They have been trained on early identification of patient at risk of falling, using fewer restraints, decreasing specific medications known to influence falls, and having increased vigilance around patients who are at a higher fall risk. The introduction of a new “Fall Risks Assessment Tool” ensures an initial assessment of all patients who might be at risk of a fall are assessed very early on in their hospital stay. Currently, this is being completed on 100 percent of our patients. The falls prevention program involves all staff and was truly a cooperative team project working with other members of our team such as physicians and physiotherapists.

Keeping Health Care Talent at ARH Partners in Caring had a fantastic year. Through the support of the community over $400,000 was raised to purchase a digital mammography unit. This piece of equipment uses digital direct radiography (DR) and is the most effective equipment to screen for breast cancer.

R

etaining our top talent and recruiting much needed health care professionals to meet the needs of our community is of much importance to Arnprior Regional Health. Two years ago, with funding from Partners in Caring, a bursary program was launched.

Mardi Bras celebrated its second year. This ladies night, held in September, is organized by representatives from CIBC, RBC, Scotiabank, Northern Credit Union, TD Bank, and the Co-operators Insurance. This event was the initiative of formers PIC Board Member Joanne McLean and to date has raised over $40,000.

Amanda Lushman was one of the first staff members to apply. Amanda began her career at Arnprior Regional Health in 2008 as a Registered Practical Nurse on the inpatient floor at ADMH. A transplant from Newfoundland, Amanda and her husband settled here in Arnprior knowing that a small town would be a great place for raising their children. Amanda also longed to go back to school in order to become a Registered Nurse.

“The transition to Arnprior was quite easy as the hospitality and warm friendly presence of the Ottawa Valley was similar to my home province of Newfoundland. The moment I started working at Arnprior Regional Health, I felt like I worked there for years, the staff were so friendly and inviting and soon became my family away from home. ARH has provided me with so many opportunities to advance my profession as a nurse. The experience I have obtained over the years has been phenomenal. With the help and support of ARH I have been able to continue my education in obtaining my bachelor degree in nursing. ARH has a partnership with Nipissing University which enables me to complete my clinicals at the hospital and complete my courses through distance learning. The bursary program has certainly given me a good head start financially on pursuing my degree and the motivation to keep going. Raising a family, working full time and school has been a real challenge. Through the support the Partners in Caring bursary program, pursuing my goals has been much smoother. I look forward to working in my new home town for many more years”

The Christmas Tree Lighting, typically held the first Friday in December, raised $31,000 towards the purchase of a scope used in the operating room. Members of the community purchased a light in honor of staff members at ARH or in memory of a loved one. It is the donations of members of the community that allow Partners in Caring to fund the needs of Arnprior Regional Health, both at the hospital and the Grove. Thank you for your ongoing support.

Soccer players promote benefits of physical activity

OTTAWA FURY/SUBMITTED

Above, Ottawa Fury soccer players Shaun Foster and Eddie Jones with a group excited students from John XXIII School in Arnprior at a Soccer in the School program session. The soccer players promote the benefits of exercise in visits to schools. Right, Fury W-League and New Zealand International Liz Milne is chased by students from John XXIII School in Arnprior.

Sports – For more than a decade the Ottawa Fury’s Soccer in School Program has been the club’s most popular grassroots initiative. Currently in its 11th season, the Soccer in Schools Program is enjoying its most successful year ever, visiting over 40 schools from Ottawa and the surrounding regions, including John XXIII in Arnprior, delivering the program to over 9,000 students from JK to Grade 8. In the program’s 11-year history, more than 250 schools have registered with more than 60,000 students benefitting from the training provided from Fury players who have since gone on to play professionally and represent Canada, Australia and New Zealand, to name a few, on the international stage. “We are ecstatic about the response that our Soccer in Schools Program has received over the past decade,” said Fury owner John Pugh. “With our North American Soccer League franchise - Ottawa Fury FC - set to begin in the spring of 2014, we are excited about taking this grassroots initiative to new heights.” Using soccer as the medium, the Ottawa Fury

are aiding Health Canada’s goal of increasing the amount of physical activity of inactive children and youth by 30 minutes more per day. Using fun, skill-based games, Fury PDL and W-League player conduct one-hour clinics for each class at school’s playing field or gymnasium. The clinic consists of a 10-minute talk on the benefits of physical activity and proper nutrition, a 40-minute activity session and a 10-minute question-and-answer session with the Fury players. FREE TICKETS

All students receive a pair of tickets for an Ottawa Fury game of their choosing. The 2013 edition of the Soccer in Schools Program has included coaching from New Zealand International Liz Milne, Australian Internationals Emily Gielnik and Gema Simon; and Yannis Becker and Artur Piperkov both of whom have developed through the Werder Bremen Youth Academy in Germany.

Sports - It’s never too late to follow your dreams all the way to the world stage. Jeannette Wiggins of Braeside has proven that. Wiggins is a 49-year-old soccer player who will be travelling this summer to the 2013 Torino Masters Games in Turin, Italy. Wiggins has had an interest in sports for many years. She had always been active in sports such as soccer, gymnastics, field hockey, volleyball and lob ball. She returned to soccer 15 years ago and when asked about her sport of choice, she says, “I would have to say soccer still remains a passion. I enjoy both the physical aspect of the sport as well as the team effort that is required to succeed.” The majority of Wiggins’ teammates played together outdoors last year for the first time in an open age division through the National Capital Industrial Soccer league in Division II. During the winter they played indoors through the West Ottawa Soccer Club in the women’s over-30 Division. Several players that Wiggins has played with or against decided they wanted to compete in the next World Masters Games. Last year they formed a team of about 20 women to compete in the WMG in the women’s over-45 competitive division. Wiggins began her training endeavours with Ultimate Fitness this past January. She began training multiple times a week in UF’s boot camps. The boot camps offer fat loss,

conditioning, as well as an exceptional focus on strength. The Crossfit Style training template of the Bootcamps lends itself well to preparing athletes. Ultimate Fitness is proud to have another client moving forward in an international sporting event. The World Masters Games are the most important world sporting event for sportspeople over 35. The number of participants is four times greater than the Summer Olympic Games. No other event in the world is able to attract as many participants as the Master Games. The Games are based on competition, passion, friendship and fun and are open to anyone willing to have fun and compete. The participants are men and women over the age of 35 who can choose to compete in many sports such as football (soccer) or archery. It is not a competition between nations but between people, and aimed to push personal limits and to accomplish personal goals. Wiggins is currently playing forward (also known as attacker or striker). This is an offensive position where the objective is to score goals. The position generally requires good ball control and passing skills, with an ability to create goal-scoring opportunities. Soccer is a sport that requires good physical endurance as it entails running for long distances as well as short bursts of sprinting. When asked when and where she heard of Ultimate Fitness, Wiggins explained that “a very

good friend started with Ultimate Fitness in September last year and was very impressed with the coaching and results she obtained through their semi-private lessons. She was really impressed with the gym and coaches. “She strongly suggested I try it out. I also convinced another friend to try it with me, and we signed up in January for Ultimate Fitness Bootcamp and have been going ever since.” Owners Paul Vaillancourt and Sarah Leighton have helped many athletes achieve their goals in sports and in life. Wiggins is no exception. When asked how Vaillancourt and Leighton have helped her journey, she says “I would highly recommend the UF Bootcamps run by Paul and Sarah. It is always a challenging workout in a non-intimidating environment. “Sarah, Paul and the staff are always willing to work with you and help you achieve success. The environment they have created at UF makes it a place you want to be to work out. “I like the boot camp for several reasons. I am not very good at just going to the gym and working out on my own I like a structured environment with knowledgeable instructors. Daily workouts are set up so that they are always different, making the fun competitive spirit of our workouts enjoyable.” If interested in a membership, private or semi-private training, or boot camps, call 613-623-9726 or visit UFgyms.com.

Packers pick up new players in trades John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

EMC sports – The new regime running the Arnprior Packers continues to overhaul the club’s roster. General manager Brent Gould has followed up the swapping of top scorer Derrin Lehoux with three more trades, one of which brings a veteran title-winning goalie to Arnprior. The Packers have traded the playing rights of Arnprior product Riley McEwan, 16, to the Perth Blue Wings for the rights to 20-year old back-up goaltender Jason Shaw. McEwan’s playing rights will revert back to the Packers following the 2013-14 season. Shaw didn’t get a chance to try on Packers green, as he was quickly traded to Stittsville with forward Eric Malloy in return for the playing rights to 21-year-old goalie Erik Miksik of Kanata and two 17-yearolds. Also coming to Arnprior are promising forward Tim McDonnell and stay-at-home defenseman Chris Ewbank. The Packers have also acquired forward high scoring forward Phil Smith from the Gananoque Islanders for 21-year-old defenseman Andrew Dekroon and forward Taylor

Fenton, who will set out the first six games of the season because of a suspension levied after a brawl in last season’s final game with Renfrew. The key for the Packers appears to be Miksik. He backstopped the Athens Aeros to the RideauSt.Lawrence championship last year. He led the league in saves while posting a 27-16 record with a 3.05 goals-against-average and .924 save percentage. Smith will be depended on to take up some of the slack caused by Lehoux’s departure. The winger was third in scoring for the Islanders last season with 28 goals and 21 assists, including six game-winning goals. His rights will revert back to Gananoque after next season for his overage year.Ewbank, who lives in Kinburn, played last season with the Almonte Thunder before being traded to Stittsville in May. He qualified for the league’s top prospects game last season. McDonnell had 16 points with the Royals in his first season in the league in 2012-13. In another June trade, the Packers arch-rivals, the Renfrew Timberwolves, re-acquired the playing rights of Matt Johnson from Port Perry of the Central Ontario Hockey League in return for future considerations.

Sullivan team, summer campers big winners of golf tournament

Come and get it. At the start of the 13th annual M. Sullivan & Son Golf Tournament, the defending champion Jim Mulvihill team dared anyone to take the trophy away from them. With the Thomas E. Sullivan Memorial Trophy is Community Living Renfrew County South manager Tina MacLaren, with team members, from left, Robbie Burton, Gary Rafter, Mulvihill and Tom Murphy. The Mulvihill Insurance team gave it a valiant effort, but this year the trophy goes to a team from M. Sullivan & Son.

JOHN CARTER/METROLAND

Sports – The winner of the 13th annual M. Sullivan & Son Golf Tournament was, appropriately, a team from the company that sponsors it. Appropriately, because the championship trophy has been renamed to the Thomas E. Sullivan Memorial Trophy in memory of the long-time company owner who died about a year and a half ago. It now resides for a year in the company’s Kingston office. The proceeds of the tournament, held at the Madawaska Golf Course, go to Community Living Renfrew County South summer day camp. “It was a cause near and dear to his (Sullivan’s) heart,” explained Community Living manager Tina MacLaren. This year’s winner was a M. Sullivan & Son foursome from Kingston, with Greg Sullivan, Gord Walton, John Garrah and Dan Jenning-Diamond. They dethroned Jim Mulvihill’s Mulvihill Insurance team.

“It was a great day … very successful,” reports MacLaren, As usual, the tournament was sold out, with 38 teams teeing off May 31 despite the muggy weather. The tournament raised $134,000, including $17,000 last year, to help send children with special needs to summer camp. The support is crucial as the program receives no other major funding, explained MacLaren. “The parents and the kids are very grateful … and so are the summer students hired for the camps,” she noted. As well as going to Community Living camps, the money helps young clients attend Camp Wanago in Arnprior. MacLaren also thanked the Madawaska Golf Club for being “such a great help” in hosting the tournament, the event’s sponsors and the many supporters in the community that provide door, raffle and auction prizes.

Several St. Joseph’s Catholic School staff were on hand at the Fuels for Kids event, manning the barbecue to raise money for the cause. The funding for JOHN CARTER/METROLAND the Arnprior school will help pay for new nets and other play equipment designed to keep the students active. Racing car driver Dave Connolly’s appearance in Arnprior was the last in a series in support of 24 schools throughout Eastern Ontario.

Vroom, vroom

Budget enhances early learning at Arnprior Catholic schools • $45,000 towards the Math Collaborative Inquiry for Learning. The Board will experience a projected deficit of $523,827 due, in part, to one-time expenses of $125,000 over and above ministry funding for the Early Learning Kindergarten Program and $100,000 for Full Day Every Day Kindergarten, as well as a shortfall in funding for Special Education. Funds will be drawn from operating reserves to allow the board to continue to “provide quality programming in an inclusive system that meets all students’ needs.” The board says it will continue to celebrate the gift of Catholic education and nourish an active faith journey for its students through a number of initiatives: • Enhanced leadership and support of our Parent Involvement Committee through increased communications and partnerships; • Student engagement in social justice campaigns such as the Dominican Experience globally and the Renfrew County Child Poverty Action Network (CPAN) locally; • A complete grade set of new resource books at each school across the system for the Religion and Family Life program. As the board celebrates its students’ excellent results in EQAO testing, it will continue its commitment to life-long learning, the growth of student achievement, engagement and inclusivity through: • Major investment in teacher job-embedded collaborative learning; • Continued commitment to Special Education, respecting the dignity of the whole child;

• Significant investment in programming. It promises to prepare students for meaningful participation in the digital age and help close the gaps in achievement through investment in new, mobile technology at the point of instruction. The extended French as a Second Language pilot continues in three schools, including St. Joseph’s Catholic School in Arnprior. The bard will fund full-day every-day learning at three of its more remote schools in order to meet the needs of the communities and support the success of its youngest students. FOCUS ON NUMERACY

The board will focus on numeracy and support inquiry at primary, junior and intermediate levels, investing in a new pilot program for skill development, problem solving and higher-level thinking. It will continue to explore creativity and learning through the Destination Imagination project and the Hila science program. As well, support continues for the “robust” summer school program that includes more than 300 students and the Grade four booster program at both high schools in the board. Capital funding of $2.9 million will be invested in school buildings to ensure them remain good places to learn. Of this, $1.8 million will be used for school renewal and improvements to buildings and sites. The remaining $1.1 million will be used to prepare schools for full-day every-day kindergarten. Capital projects include window and exterior door replacements at St. Joseph’s Catholic

School in Arnprior and exterior lighting upgrades across the system. “While we do have many new and exciting initiatives, I would be remiss if I did not mention the budgetary challenges we are facing,” said Schreader. “Those include continuing transportation funding pressures due to declining enrolment and geographical issues, Special Education program funding, and implications of provincial level collective agreements with employee groups. “We will counter these challenges with diligent and wise stewardship of our resources and a commitment to appropriate spending to ensure the sustainability of our board.” The board will carry out an accommodations review of buildings and sites in the Barry’s Bay-Killaloe area in order to develop options to improve educational opportunities and operating efficiencies to best meet the needs of elementary students. It will implement shared services where possible (e.g., bandwidth to increase speed and support infrastructure currently in place). Ministry funding will support the implementation of a new human resources information system to increase efficiencies. It will replace manual tasks with electronic processes that integrate payroll and HR functions, and make information retrieval and reporting more efficient. “Our Board will continue to work collaboratively with the Diocese, the Parent Involvement Committee, staff, students and the larger community,” said Schreader. “Together, we will provide schools to believe in.”

News – The Renfrew County Catholic District School Board has approved a budget that will continue to support quality academic and faith-based education in the 2013–2014 school year. The budget includes more than $2 million for year four of the Early Learning Program, which will be implemented at St. Joseph’s Catholic School and John XXIII in Arnprior, Cathedral Catholic School in Pembroke, St. James Catholic School in Eganville and St. Francis of Assisi Catholic School in Petawawa. “We have set priorities in order to ensure that resources match the goals of the government and align with our strategic plan to provide a safe and welcoming environment for all of our students,” said board chair Bob Schreader in a news release last week. He noted that none of the board’s core programs will be cut out. A number of provincial funding grants will contribute to the $59.15-million operating budget for 2013–2014. They reflect the mandate of the government and the Catholic board’s multiyear plan to increase student achievement, close gaps in student achievement and increase public confidence. It includes: • $145,000 in mental health funding to create a position to provide support so every student feels well, safe and included along the journey to Christian maturity; • $135,000 for the Student Work Study Teacher (SWST) initiative collaborative inquiry learning projects focused on student learning; • $105,000 to enhance e-learning opportunities;

Response to Scottish Festival pleases organizer John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

News - McNab Days Scottish Festival cochair Boyd MacLaren was delighted by the response from the community and the effort put in by his organizing committee. Committee members have already met to discuss what went right with the festival and what should be tweaked for next year. Organizers want to ensure it becomes an annual event, he said. “I’m so happy with the day ... I’m ecstatic,� he said. “And I’m so proud of all the work by the committee.� MacLaren, who co-chaired the organizing committee with his wife Rose Ann, estimates about 1,200 people attended the festival Sunday, June 23 on the grounds of the Waba Museum in White Lake. Add in the 150 participants and it meant about 1,350 people passed through the grounds that day despite the muggy weather, he says. “It was a little hot, but all in all it was a beautiful day,� he said, noting it was a relief there

was no lightning or thunder. The large turnout resulted in the Lions running out of food by early afternoon. And the Women’s Institute sold all its pies. MacLaren said the committee isn’t likely to make any major changes to next year’s festival but will look into adding some elements. “We’d like to grow what we’ve got,� he said, noting this year’s festival added eight events compared to the last one two years ago. One possible addition is to have a Highland dance contest to complement the pipe band competition, as there is plenty of space, he said. MacLaren thanked the three pipe bands (Arnprior-McNab, Renfrew Highland and Kemptville) for playing so well and the museum people who were “marvelous.� “We generally had good support from the community,� he said. MacLaren said the committee is considering forming an association so it can hold fundraisers, such as raffles, to help fund next year’s festival.

He was included by the school on the list of graduates as a posthumous member of the class of 2013. As well, the final individual award presented at the ceremony was the Tyler McEnroe Memorial Award. Tyler’s mother Laurie Selle, brother Braydon McEnroe and step-father Mike McBane presented the award to student Jenna Baird. Adam Farmer gave the valedictory address on behalf of Walter Zadow’s three Grade 8 classes. Georgia De Abreu and Matthew Smith earned Lions Club awards for being the top academic students. De Abreu received the Andy Campbell Memorial award and Smith the Mac Smith Memorial award. The multi-talented De Abreu also received the outstanding female athlete and Dr. Robert Love public speaking awards. Smith won three other aca-

demic awards for proficiency in history and geography, English, and mathematics and science. The Rotarian Four Way Test awards were presented to Alix Schiemann and Corey Young. Schiemann also made two other trips to the podium, sharing the proficiency in English and proficiency in arts awards. The co-winner of the proficiency in arts award was Lauren Miron, who also received the proficiency in French immersion award. Valedictorian Adam Farmer earned the proficiency in core French award. Julia Barrie received the Ontario Principal Council Principal’s Award for student leadership and the Dr. Robert McCreary Humanitarian Award. Ashley Ly earned the Walter Zadow Memorial Citizenship Award and an Optimist award for positive attitude, dedication and most improvement. The male winner of the Optimist award was Grayson Fraser. The Caitlin Stewart Memorial Award went to Connor Bradley. The Murray Vernon Community Policing award for volunteerism was presented to Nikita Maves.

Cole Desjardins and Niki Jamieson-Naugler earned proficiency in health and physical education awards. David Silye won the outstanding male athlete award. Big ‘A’ awards for students excelling academically, artistically, athletically and in cocurricular activities went to Brandon Baldwin-Armstrong, Julia Barrie, Connor Bradley, Bobby-Jo Cavanagh, Georgia De Abreu, Cole Desjardins, Sebastian Donis, Adam Farmer, Grayson Fraser, Kurtis Gardiner, Cayley Inch, Jacob Jack, Cassie Jones, Ashley Ly, Niki Jamieson-Naugler, Liam Mayhew, Lauren Miron, Nikita Maves, Jonah Pelkey Nicholas Quade, Alix Schiemann, David Silye, Matthew Smith, Liam Verch, Corey Young, John Young and Jenna Wilson. The graduation exercises featured opening remarks by principal Kim Shoveller and greetings from Renfrew County District School Board Trustee Norm Hazelwood and superintendent Dennis Jenkins.

Changes to the Organ Donation Registry

Thank You!

Recently there have been some changes to Organ Donation Registry in Ontario. Filling out the paper slip that accompanies your driver’s license renewal does not mean you are registered. A signed donor care is not recorded in the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care’s database and may not be available when needed. Organ and tissue donor registration is the only secure way to make your decision to save lives be known. Every three days, one person in Ontario dies while waiting for an organ transplant because not enough of us are registered donors. Fewer than 25% of adult Ontarians have actually registered their consent to be an organ and tissue donor. One donor can save up to eight lives and enhance as many as 75 more. The first and foremost duty of health care professionals is to save a life. Only when a life cannot be saved does organ and tissue donation become an option. Everyone has the potential to be an organ and/or tissue donor regardless of age or health. Organ and tissue donation should not impact funeral arrangement. Your donation decision will only be disclosed for the purpose of sharing your decision with your family. You can change or withdraw your consent to donate at any time. Donor Registration Rates in our Area In Arnprior there are 11,107 health card holders over the age of 16. Of this group 2,388 are registered donors meaning a rate of only 21%. In Renfrew there are 11,796 health card holders over the age of 16. Of this group only18% are registered donors. Renfrew County and Lanark Highlands Township (which doesn’t include Arnprior) is a little bit higher at a rate of 19%. The rate for the entire province is 23% (as of March 31, 2013). Registering is easy. You can register online at BeADonor.ca, in person at any Service Ontario Centre (100 Madawaska Blvd, Arnprior) or by mailing the Gift of Life consent form.

Sandrine Craig was Dunrobin girl who tragically died in a school bus accident at the age of 11. Her family donated her organs and as a result six people’s lives (including those of three children) were either saved or greatly enhanced. Sandrine’s mom Diane Craig said “We’re burying the cure.” Take the time today to visit BeADonor.ca or call 1-800-263-2833 to find out more information.

Plager joined the public school board in 1984 as a Kindergarten assistant at Walter Zadow. She also worked at McNab, Alexander Reid and A.J. Charbonneau schools before going back to Walter Zadow. She was well-known for volunteering to help musicians and organizing concerts, making costumes and doing make-up. She also worked with special needs children, saying she found helping them and watching them graduate to high school “rewarding.” That info came from the retiree booklet.

Mary has her first foray into milking the cows Rarely did I have so much attention sent my way, and I was loving every minute of it. With four siblings, rarely was I singled out, but that day, I was getting my share. The subject was if I was old enough to milk. Once a calf got to the cow stage, I lost BY MARY COOK interest in her, and I had little desire to sit Lifestyle - “I’m telling you, she’s too young,” Mother with my head on her belly and try to get said. Father said he milked a cow the day he learned to milk into a pail. walk! Mother said “that’s nonsense, and you know it.” But Father said it was time I did my share like everyone else in the family. Needless to say I was never consulted as to how I felt about the issue. And so, on a Saturday it was, Father put a three-legged stool at the rear end of the quietest cow in the cow byre, put a pail under her, and without a word of instruction, told me to go ahead and milk. The old cow turned her head in my direction, and then back to chewing her cud. After watching my three brothers and sister do the milking often enough, I figured there wasn’t much to it. Well, I pulled, and I tugged, and I spit on my hands, and kept saying “sooo Bossie.” Nothing worked. The brothers were real pros at the job. The barn cats lined up on the other side of the gutter, and every so often, a squirt of milk would be headed in their direction, and without fail, the milk went right into their opened mouths. And here was I who R0012077113_0509 couldn’t even get a drop into the milk pail! My arms ached right up to my shoulders, and a couple times I almost fell off the three-legged stool. It was beyond me why the milk stool only had three legs in the first place. To add to my misery, it was fly season

too. And the poor old cow, kept swishing her tail trying to rid herself of the hateful pests, and with each swish, I took the full brunt square in the face. Mother was right. I was too young for this job. But to convince Father was another matter. First of all, I didn’t like the cow byre. It was full of cobwebs, cows smelled differently from the horses. And I wouldn’t put it pass any one of them to give me a good kick, especially when I was engaged in something as personal as tugging at her private parts. Emerson, Everett and Earl were into the snickering, and I knew it wouldn’t be long before I was into the tears. It was my beloved sister Audrey who finally came to my rescue. She had finished milking her cows, the milk had been emptied into the cans, and she came over to where I was sitting hunched over, still tugging away with absolutely not a drop to show for my efforts. “Let me try,” she said, and I gladly surrendered the stool. The milk spewed out on the first try with Audrey. I blamed it on the cow. I thought I was doing exactly what my sister was doing, but it certainly wasn’t working for me, and I was convinced the cow didn’t like me any more than I liked her. Audrey tried her best to show me how to milk. Nothing worked. Finally, she went up to Father who was at the far end of the cow byre. “Mary’s hands are too small,” she said. “And the cow’s too big,” I offered. Father ran his hand over my head. Even though it wasn’t near my nose, I could smell cow off him, and milk, neither of which

were my favourite odours. “Well, we’ll try again some other time,” he said. I was out of the barn before you could say ‘milk pail’. I ran to the house and told Mother I wanted to change my clothes. She knew exactly why. I bundled up what I had on in the barn, and brought the whole pile down to the summer kitchen to wait the Monday wash. I asked Mother for a pan of hot water and wash cloth and towel, which I hauled upstairs to the privacy of the bedroom. I washed every square inch of my body I could reach, but I thought I could still smell the cow byre off my skin. I opened my sister Audrey’s drawer of the little wash stand we shared, and took out her precious can of Lily of the Valley talcum powder, and slathered it on with abandon. Then I put on clean clothes from the inside out. When we sat down for supper, my try at milking was never mentioned. I figured the brothers had been warned not to bring up the subject. And I knew, without a doubt, my milking days were over … but only for the time being. Everyone had to pull her share back then. And I knew the time would come when I would be led back into the cow byre and made to stick at it until I could fill a milk pail like the brothers or my sister Audrey. Not a word was spoken all during supper about how I had failed at a job that everyone worth his or her salt would be expected to do growing up on a farm long before modern milking machines did the job for you. Even my sister Audrey, who guarded her belongings like a mother hen guarding her chicks, never said a word about how I smelled of Lily of the Valley.

This represents an increase of 0.7% from the previous quarter. Payments under the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS), the Allowance and the Allowance for the Survivor will also increase by the same percentage. The last time OAS benefit amounts increased was in January, when benefits were raised in response to an increase in the average CPI. Since then, the average CPI had initially decreased, but increased again in the last quarter. The Old Age Security Act guarantees that OAS benefits do not go down, even when there is a decrease in the CPI.

Author of a book on loss to be in Arnprior Saturday Lucy Hass Lucy.hass@metroland.com

Arts - When AdmastonBromley resident Judy Cressman’s son Ryan died on Nov. 30, 2009, she felt like she wanted to die. Today, her healing journey has led her to a place of comfort where she believes she will one day see her son again. Ryan, who attended Renfrew Collegiate Institute, was only 31 years old when he died of cancer. Written under Cressman’s maiden and pen name J.J. Southwell, Ryan’s Legacy – How to Survive the Loss of Your Loved One, is the compelling tale of a mother’s love and the lessons she learned dealing with her son’s untimely death. “You do not get over your loss, but you work through it,” says Cressman. She will be in Arnprior this Saturday, July 6 to discuss her book and sign copies from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Arnprior Book Shop. She hopes her book will present some ideas that help other people going through the loss of a loved one. “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change,” she says. Outlook is everything, and she believes the world is filled

with positive energy that people can tap into to lead a happier life. Those sources range from angels, crystals and meditation to hobbies, family and prayer. The retired elementary school principal believes loved ones remain close, even after death, and the signs are all around for those who practice awareness and are open to the signs from beyond. “There are no coincidences. Be open to the signs,” she advises. After her son’s death, Cressman discovered a dragonfly symbol on his computer. It has become the sign through which they communicate. The book recounts numerous incidences that brought comfort to Cressman in recent years. It also features special chapters written by Ryan’s brothers, Derek and Jon. Primarily, the book conveys the knowledge and messages Cressman has gained through visits through psychic mediums, a shamanic practitioner, and tarot-card and tea-leaf reader. “The whole book started out as a journal,” says Cressman, who finished the handwritten version of the journal last summer and prepared it for self-publication this past winter. Aside from writing, she has also been a voracious reader

on various subjects related to the afterlife (Heaven), reincarnation and past lives. Cressman has a B.A. in psychology and a master’s degree in education. Since Ryan’s death, she has read 120 books and trained to be a Reiki master and teacher. She now hopes to pursue study of another fascinating subject matter, intuition. Ryan’s Legacy – How to Survive the Loss of Your Loved One is available at local bookstores and on Amazon, through Barnes and Noble in hardcover, softcover and ebook. This week Cressman, who is originally from Almonte but lives just outside Renfrew with her husband Bob, embarks on a Valley book-signing tour. Following are the dates and locations: • Friday, July 5 from 1 to 3 p.m. at Soul Sense in Almonte; • Saturday, July 6 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Arnprior Book Shop; • Saturday, July 13 from 1 to 3 p.m. at A Sense of Country in Renfrew; • Saturday, July 20 from 1 to 3 p.m. at The Book Nook in Perth; • Saturday, July 20 from 2 to 4 p.m. at Read’s Book Shop in Carleton Place; and • Arlie’s in Smiths Falls in the fall.

Toastmasters’ talents ‘grow’ by entering contests Community - For Toastmasters spring and fall provide opportunities for speakers to compete against others in speech contests. In the spring, the International Speech contest draws in speakers from all over the world, competing in their districts and regions for the opportunity to compete at the conference in August and the chance to become the world champion. The other contests may end at the local district levels, but they too provide an opportunity for fun and competition as contestants share their funny stories in the humorous speech contests or the tall tales contests. They also develop their impromptu speaking skills in the evaluation contests and the Table Topics contests. Why would a person want to subject themselves to such a practice? Isn’t it tough enough to get up in front of your fellow co-workers to give a presentation? Or in front of your local club? They do it to grow, to enhance their skills. People who participate in

The winner of International Speech contest, Francine Fortin of the Valley Vintage Toastmasters Club, receives her award from Fran Watson, right, and Greg Eady. Toastmasters develop their confidence as they participate in weekly meetings, taking on the various roles of Toastmaster, Table Topics Master, Grammarian, Timer, Educational Tip and Ah Counter. Each time they speak at a meeting, or challenge themselves to present a speech, they grow. When they want to challenge themselves further, they participate in contests - from club level, to area level, to division

level, to district level, and in the case of the International Speech contest, to the International level. If you are thinking about developing your confidence and leadership skills, check out a Toastmasters Club near you. Who knows, you just might get hooked on speech contests and challenging yourself to grow. Local clubs meet in Arnprior, Renfrew and Pembroke.

Camp Wanago back for each week during summer holidays Abby Bourgoin Camp co-ordinator

JAY KOCH/SUBMITTED

The camp staff at Camp Wanago, which opened for the summer this week, includes co-ordinators Abby Bourgoin and Calley Mosely and counsellors Maria Pecora, Stephanie MacLaren, Patrick Beaudry, Callum Steele and Blair Marcellus.

News – It’s that time again and the staff at Camp Wanago is eagerly anticipating another fun and successful summer. We have a ton of great trips, exciting games and crafts planned for the children this year. Camp Wanago runs throughout July and August and is open for children ages 4 to 12. The Arnprior Department of Parks and Recreation’s summer day camp is very well known and has been around for many years. This year we have brought back many favorite trips like Mont Cascades, Cosmic Adventures, Saunders Farm, and Museum of Civilization, as well as new trips such as Funhaven, Museum of Nature and Ray’s Reptiles. We will also be going on some exciting trips within Arnprior including the Arnprior Bowling Centre, the O’Brien Theatre, Dairy Queen and more. We’re looking forward to a summer of fun and excitement. We are happy to welcome back some familiar faces to Camp Wanago this year. Each

staff member brings their own unique qualities and ideas to camp to ensure that each and every child is having fun. Abby Bourgoin is joining us once again at Camp Wanago as one of our co-ordinators. Abby is enrolled in the Bachelor of Kinesiology Program at Acadia University in Nova Scotia and will be entering her third year this fall. We are pleased to welcome back Calley Mosley in her new role as our other camp co-ordinator. In September she will be entering her third and final year of the Child and Youth Worker program at Loyalist College. Her outgoing personality and fresh ideas are sure to be a wonderful addition to camp this summer. Stephanie MacLaren is resuming her role as counsellor at camp this summer. She just graduated from Nipissing University with her Bachelor of Education in the junior/

primary divisions. She will be continuing her studies in Education this coming fall. Also returning as a counselor is Patrick Beaudry. He will be graduating from Arnprior District High School in the coming weeks and will be studying Biological Sciences at Guelph University this coming fall. Both Stephanie and Patrick’s experience with children and dedication makes them great additions to camp again this summer. We are also pleased to welcome back Callum Steele as a counsellor. Callum will be attending Conestoga College in Kitchener, studying in a Public Relations program. As well, Maria Pecora has been welcomed into her new position as camp counsellor for this summer. She has just completed her first year of the Bachelor of Psychology and Education at Trent University.

Blair Marcellus is working with Camp Wanago this summer through a partnership with her employer, Community Living. She will be working directly with children who will be attending Camp Wanago by way of a referral from Community Living. The counsellors of Camp Wanago extend a warm welcome to Marcellus and everyone is looking forward to working with her We are very happy to have such an amazing group of counsellors at Camp Wanago this summer. We are positive that it’s going to be a very successful year. The camp staff promises fun games, trips, crafts, new friends and experiences but most importantly a safe and fun environment for all children. If you have any questions or are interested in registering your child, please call or drop by the Nick Smith Centre.
