Frontenac County unveils first draft of Official Plan By Craig Bakay Reporter
EMC News – County council got a look at the first draft of its new Official Plan at its regular meeting last week in Glenburnie, and the plan’s author/architect, manager of sustainability planning Joe Gallivan, says it’s unique in the history of planning in Ontario. Responding to Coun. Gary Davison’s concerns that the sections on roads weren’t exactly what council had discussed and that he didn’t want this particular draft “going to the province,� Gallivan said that while he would be sending the draft to the Ministry of
Municipal Affairs and Housing, it would only be for input, not for approval. “This is not like most official plans,� Gallivan said. “For one thing, it has a lot less detail than most. “Dealing with a county as a region has never been done before (and) the ministry may want more detail but we want them to know that we don’t intend to go in that direction.� This plan would seem to pay more attention to conservation authority boundaries than township boundaries for one thing. In fact, the included Schedule “A� — Land Use map is based on the four conservation authorities in
Frontenac County (Mississippi, Quinte, Rideau Valley and Cataraqui) and also acknowledges the Lower Madawaska Watershed and St. Lawrence River areas. The Schedule “B� map is of the “Natural Heritage System.� In fact, the largest single section of the 68-page document is devoted to “Environmental Sustainability� and other sections devote space to the Rideau Canal UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Frontenac Arch UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, Trail Development and Scenic Routes. Gallivan said the Official Plan is based on six “sustainability� themes — economic, growth management, community build-
ing, housing and social services, heritage and culture and environmental. But it was the section on transportation, particularly a Regional Road Network, that drew the attention of council. “Unless I was in the wrong room, I remember discussions on roads being under the direction of the township public works managers,� said Davison. “You staff are always looking for direction and here we go — we get duplication.� “Yes, we don’t want duplication but we must work together,� said Warden Janet Gutowski. “We agreed to work together but not be coordinated by
the county,� said Coun. Denis Doyle. However, Gallivan agreed that the draft was “not etched in stone.� According to provincial mandate, the Official Plan must be in place by March of 2015. However, Gallivan wants to have it approved early in 2014. He’s planning several public feedback sessions later this year, with a second draft incorporating that feedback ready sometime this fall. In the meantime, the document is available on the Frontenac County website (www.frontenaccounty.ca) and the public is invited to view its contents and comment.

Some basic, routine maintenance will ensure your vehicle stays in superb shape. By Christine Henderson
Summertime – and the fun-in-the-sun road trips that go hand-in-hand with the solstice – is now upon us. But as you make your summer getaway plans, don’t neglect to dispense a little tender loving care on your vehicle. And the best way to get your set of wheels ready for the road is by treating it to a tune-up. It’s not news that today’s automotive technology is far more advanced than the technology of yester-decade. The services required to keep today’s modern engines humming are also far more advanced. Having a technician inspect your vehicle before embarking upon a road trip could very well ensure your holiday remains heavenly rather than hellacious. There are various components under the hood and beyond that should be inspected. For starters, make certain to have a general inspection done of the entire vehicle, including the ignition system, tires, and brakes. Also make sure the uid services are addressed. This is also a good time to replace any worn hoses and drive belts. Few motorists overlook having their engine oil and ďŹ lter changed. But many neglect to change their other uids. Brake uid ushes are important because the uid can become contaminated and not compress properly over time. Transmission uid is also important because, much like engine oil, it is designed to keep the inner workings of the transmission lubricated. It breaks down over time, thereby leaving your transmission vulnerable to overheating and failure. If your uids don’t need to be changed, then ensure they are topped up before heading out. The good news is that tune-ups are not needed nearly as often on today’s modern car as they were on carbureted vehicles. While adjustments were once required at least twice yearly, most vehicles only require a minor tune-up once a year. A major tune-up is required every couple of years, depending on how many kilometers you drive yearly. Your technician will be checking things like spark plugs, ignition wires, ďŹ lters, and timing. Spark plugs and ignition wires are responsible or carrying
electricity from the ignition coil to the cylinder. When worn, these parts must be replaces. Wires break down over time, causing electricity to escape. Most manufacturers now claim that you can drive for 160,000 km before requiring new spark plugs. But other ignition components should be replaced prior to that, including ignition wires, the PCV valve, and the fuel ďŹ lter. Be sure to check your owner’s manual. Most vehicles have a fuel ďŹ lter that needs to be replaced. This is a great time for the fuel injection to be ushed of any carbon particles that may damage or clog the fuel injectors and rail. Fuel injectors work by spraying a ďŹ ne mist of fuel into the combustion chamber, and can easily become clogged or damaged by carbon. Carbon can gradually build within the engine causing a host of problems. A fuel injection service will ush this carbon from the engine, eliminating potential blockages. Nobody wants to spend a single minute of their holidays stranded at a repair centre. Preparing for the worst before you leave will minimize the likelihood of your summer turning into a bummer.

The Frontenac EMC - Thursday, June 27, 2013
Volunteers honoured at ceremony in South Frontenac By Craig Bakay Reporter
EMC News – South Frontenac Township honoured its Volunteers of the Year at its regular meeting last week in Sydenham. This year’s recipients were Bill and Sharon Patterson, Frank York, Wayne Closs and Chris Sleeth. Sleeth was recognized for his ongoing contributions to
softball in the area, including playing, coaching, umpiring and administration. He has been president of the Frontenac County Minor Softball Association, supportive of the Junior Umpire Program and guru of the East Storrington Softball program. The Pattersons were two of the first volunteers for the 1998 International Plowing Match and since then have been actively
involved with the Storrington Retirees. They have both been active with St. James Anglican Church and getting donations for Christmas hampers. Closs began volunteering at age 18 with hockey and hasn’t stopped. He has also been instrumental in softball programs, a volunteer for the Harrowsmith & District Social and Athletic Club as well as a noted hamburger barbecuer during Harrowsmith Canada Day in the Park celebrations. York is well known in the Verona area as a devoted volunteer for the Cattail Festival and all Lions Club activities including the Purple Lions mini-truck and Gypsy Wagon stage for the festival. However, he will probably be best remembered as the driving force behind the first Red Green Duct

Chair of services review committee resigns over reserves concerns By Craig Bakay Reporter
EMC News â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Walter Knott, chair of the Comprehensive Review of Services and Organization Committee, tendered his resignation at the regular Frontenac County Council meeting last week in Glenburnie. In a written statement, Knott, a retired accountant, said his reason for resigning centred on reserve funds and that he made his decision following a review of the auditorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report for 2012. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Looking at these numbers, I was quite taken aback and concluded that the review (of services and organization) should not continue at this time,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is the much larger issue â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;hiding under the bedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;...of the massive amount of cash held by the county, some $17 million, which I believe is at the heart of the stresses of this council.â&#x20AC;? Knott called the reserves a â&#x20AC;&#x153;twoheaded monsterâ&#x20AC;? with one head being deferred revenues of $2.4 million â&#x20AC;&#x153;which is Federal Gas Tax money received, but not yet spent and must be so reported.â&#x20AC;? The other head, he said, is the reserve group, of $14.1 million. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I urge council to seek out a forensic accountant to review the numbers starting Jan.1, 1997, when the Frontenac Management Board was created,â&#x20AC;? Knott said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;First to determine how much should be held for capital replacement (my guess is about $4 million) and
for working capital (maybe $2 million) and then determine the source of the balances by funding sourceâ&#x20AC;Śthe City of Kingston, and the townships, who provided the local tax contributions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe that collecting excess taxes over a long period was unethical and for me that is a major problem. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To collect money for one purpose, and then to hold it for other possible eventual uses, is wrong. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My conscience requires me to urge council to put the review on hold until the excess funds matter is settled ...as a result, I must step down from the committee until that is resolved. Council did not immediately accept Knottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resignation, instructing Coun. Denis Doyle to meet with Knott privately in an effort to have him reconsider. â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘ With little fanfare and even littler discussion, Frontenac County adopted a
one-year term for Warden at its regular meeting last week in Glenburnie. County council had already passed a bylaw to that effect at its May 15 meeting but, as per Section 219 of The Municipal Act, required the approval of the majority of townships in the county representing a majority of the county electors. The county has received notice that all four of its member townships have passed resolutions supporting the bylaw. Under The Municipal Act, the bylaw will come into force the day the new county council is organized following the October 2014 Municipal Election, i.e. Dec. 1, 2014. Council initiated the one-term-warden bylaw after current Warden Janet Gutowski declined to step down after one year in the chair, as had been the standard procedure in most past Frontenac County Councils.

When you have come this far…. You really can’t stop! By Margaret Knott Correspondent
EMC News- That certainly seemed to be the consensus at a meeting held to consider the possibility of a roof over Wolfe Island’s artificial ice pad presently exposed to the elements. The meeting drew residents from across the island anxious to see possible designs, dream dreams. And of course talk about money, costs to date and costs for moving forward or not….. Wolfe Island’s history includes building rinks, making ice, encouraging and supporting hockey and skating programs dating back a very long time, and raising the money to do it themselves. It dates back to playing hockey on the river The island’s NHL sized ice pad and building, housing the ice plant and Zamboni ice surfacer, was made possible through the ongoing
fundraising efforts of the WI Community Centre Board, very generous financial donations, in kind (cement, trucking, etc.) donations , CBC-Kraft Hockeyville, support from (Canadian Hydro) Trans Alta and, many budgeted dollars from the Township of Frontenac Islands, and thousands of volunteer hours by island residents and friends to help make it happen.. “One of the driving factors in considering a roof for the ice pad at this time are high electricity costs,” Mayor Doyle said in his opening remarks. We can save $15 to $20,000 a year if we have a roof to keep off the sun, snow and rain that all cause the compressor to run more often. We would see much less time wasted, shovelling and an extension of the season by two weeks at either end maybe more. It was also suggested to me that a finished ice pad might en-
courage young families to stay on the island,” Mayor Doyle noted that while there has been much discussion at council about financing the project over and above what has been set aside in reserves as well as many generous donations, there is still a $400,000 shortfall. “So we really need to get a campaign going to raise maybe $200,000. We talked to Infrastructure Ontario, and with good borrowing rates we could perhaps finance it over a 10 year period.” Roof solar panels are also being considered. “Our job was to do a thorough research on what we have at the rink facility at this time and what we hope to see in the future to make it last.” Glenn Mosier said, who then named the members of the ad hoc ‘Roof Committee of Council’, Steve Fargo, Sharon Kane, and Marilyn Hawkins. “Thanks to Paul Hogan (Community Centre Board chair) we had all the information we needed to get
TOWNSHIP OF SOUTH FRONTENAC
to this point. It’s a difficult decision to spend that kind of money but when you look at how quickly we put the rink project we already have together, at a quarter of its actual cost certainly makes a roof a worthwhile project and we will advise council to move forward. It will be their decision. What we are looking for here is feedback from the community.” All were encouraged to fill out a questionnaire , offer suggestions, indicate support or not. Patrick Thomson, of TC Projects (structural engineer/project management) has been involved with the roof project through the management design process made possible through a grant. ”What I do for townships is the assembling of project tender documents ,costs, quality assurance etc., so at a project’s completion the project is a valued asset.” A design poster of a roof was on display indicating a concrete continuous perimeter foundation, and with posts the roof overhang begins 14 feet from the ground up to the 24 ft height roof . Lighting proposed are 35
high beam LED ‘s. One resident suggested visualizing the gym ceiling (the gym we were in) as the rink roof dropping down to the height of the basketball hoops (14’) from the floor. FYI:- All of the information boards and roof proposals will be posted on the Frontenac Islands web site. Council will plan a formal question and answer meeting at a later date.

No cows allowed on condo land, council decides By Craig Bakay Reporter
EMC News â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A plan to rezone a large portion of condominium lands that would allow condo residents to keep farm animals in a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;hobby farmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; arrangement was flatly rejected by South Frontenac Council in a unanimous recorded vote at its regular meeting last week in Sydenham. The lands in question, some 122 acres, is in Loughborough District on an area that borders Eel Bay as well as the main body of the east end of Sydenham Lake. In a report to council, Planner Lindsay Mills said that in 2006, the 122 acre parcel was converted to a vacant land condominium development. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The condominium arrangement was established to recognize 12 fully functioning dwellings that had already existed on the large landholding but which were technically all located on one lot,â&#x20AC;? Millsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; report said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The dwellings are now each recognized as being separate dwellings on individual surveyed â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sitesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; within the plan of condominium and therefore, they may be bought, sold, and mortgaged similar to lots in a subdivision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As part of any condominium arrangement, there are common areas that are used for the enjoyment of all the members in the condo corporation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This common area is about 100 acres in size and is characterized as gently rolling land that is mostly heavily treed but with two open areas of
significant size and two small wetland portions.â&#x20AC;? Mills said that from a planning perspective, the proposal appears to meet the intent of the Official Plan in terms of the use of large acreage for agricultural purposes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It should be noted, however, that any construction of farm structures that might be contemplated would need to observe all required setbacks including the requirements for minimum distance separation where new farm buildings must be located a minimum distance from any residential buildings,â&#x20AC;? he said. He said no agencies were formally circulated with the application but the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority â&#x20AC;&#x153;verbally advised that they would not have concerns.â&#x20AC;? However, councillors did have concerns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not really in favour of this,â&#x20AC;? said Coun. Ron Vandewal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It starts out one way and then changes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now they want to change it again.â&#x20AC;? Vandewal said the homes there were rather expensive and said raising cows next to them would be â&#x20AC;&#x153;like mixing oil and water.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not in favour of turning it into a bunch of little hobby farms. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have to agree,â&#x20AC;? said Coun. Bill Robinson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like the mixture of it at all. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can see problems down the road.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you talk about putting animals back on that property, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give me a very warm feeling,â&#x20AC;? said Mayor Gary Davison. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The land slopes down there towards Eel Bay.â&#x20AC;?

In Our Opinion
Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not that sure what an Integrity Commissioner is but I think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like the job Craig Bakay Reporter
editorial@theheritageemc.ca
EMC Editorial - Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to officially tender my candidacy for Frontenac Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soon-to-be-created office of Integrity Commissioner. Whatever the lowest bid for the job is, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do it for $1 less. Now, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really know what the going rate for an Integrity Commissioner is, but the pay is probably on a per-issue basis and I figure, given the way this county council has â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;discussedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; things this term, there should be plenty of work sorting out whosaid-what-about-whom. And for that constant business, I can be as integral as anybody. For those of you wondering â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;what the hell is he talking about?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; well, it seems county council has decided they need a referee to decide whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right and whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrong when they get into a little squabble. (They tend to say nasty things about one another.) Now, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to call this position Integrity Commissioner be-
cause that sounds a lot more â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;officialâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; than referee, but the job is essentially the same. The job entails a fair amount of paperwork and documentation though, so perhaps â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;scorekeeperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; might be an appropriate slash to add on to the title. And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to point out that official scorers in Major League Baseball are quite often newspaper reporters and we pass judgment on political goings-on all the time, so a journalist would seem to be a good fit for the job. Besides, how tough can it be? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a clause that says â&#x20AC;&#x153;if the Integrity Commissioner is of the opinion that the referral of a matter to him or her is frivolous, vexatious or not made in good faith . . . the Integrity Commissioner shall not conduct an inquiry and shall state the reasons for not doing so in the report.â&#x20AC;? How hard can it be to write â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not conducting an inquiry because youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all acting like a bunch of big babies?â&#x20AC;? Because thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what the vast majority of these complaints are going to be. On second thought though, maybe â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is the best title when you consider the sports analogy as-
pect. In most North American major team sports, a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is required to arbitrate when squabbling owners canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play nice. County council this year has, at times, seemed more like a bunch of team owners arguing over how to divvy up TV revenues, only in councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s case, they like to call it taxes and grant funding. We even have the large market franchise (South Frontenac), the midmarket franchise (Central Frontenac) and the two small market franchises (North Frontenac and Frontenac Islands). There is one section of the proposed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Code of Conduct for Members of County Council and Committeesâ&#x20AC;? under which the Integrity Commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position is created that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to work on though. Section 3.0.ii of Appendix A says â&#x20AC;&#x153;All complaints will be treated as confidential at all times.â&#x20AC;? But, if an elected official is making, or the object of, a complaint before something called an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Integrity Commissioner,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; the people that voted for them sure as hell have the right to know about it since theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re paying for it. Other than that, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m good to go.
Happy Birthday Canada! EMC Editorial - This Monday marks Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 146th birthday. As such, we at the Kingston Heritage/Frontenac Gazette EMC would like to encourage residents to proudly don our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s colours and hit one or more of the many area Canada Day celebrations. Here in the City of Kingston, two Canada Day celebrations will be staged. Events in Confederation Park will include the Limestone Mile, Red and White People Parade, Civic Ceremony, dedication of the restored Spirit of Sir John A., live entertainment and fireworks finale will run from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. Grass Creek Park will also play host to a variety of events and activities July 1 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., including a wide range of live entertainment, pony rides and petting zoo, sack races, crafts, mini golf, air castles, rock climbing wall, cake cutting and a Civic Ceremony. Just north of the city, in South Frontenac Township, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been made aware of Canada Day celebrations taking place in Harrowsmith. A full day of family fun will take place at Harrowsmith Centennial Park from 10 a.m. onward. Events include, but are not limited to, a Canada Day Parade, Recycled Reptiles show, sheep shearing demonstration, log sawing contest, ice cream challenge, horseshoe tournament, water fun with the fire department, live entertainment, vendors, helicopter rides, OPP canine demonstration, and a fireworks finale. To the west, Canada Day celebrations will be taking place in both Wilton and Bath. Wilton will celebrate the oc-
casion with its second annual Bruce Burt Memorial Tractor Parade. Around 12 p.m., a contingent of farm and garden tractors make their way west along Simmons and make their way past Wilton Pottery, the Wilton Cheese Factory, over the creek to Wilton Tack. They will then loop back to the Playground at 235 Simmons Rd., where the tractors will park and be on display and a community potluck picnic will take place at 1 p.m. In Bath, events will take place June 28 to July 1; however, on Canada Day, Centennial Park will be full of life with food and craft vendors, live entertainment, Firemanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Foam, pony rides and petting zoo and face painting. The fun gets underway at 9 a.m. and runs throughout the afternoon. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget about the Canada Day parade. The parade, with the theme Celebrating Bathâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Maritime Heritage, starts at 1 p.m. that day from Finkle Shoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park , and travels down Main Street to Church Street and up to the Bath Public School. Finally, to the east, Seeleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bay will be getting in on the Canada Day fun. Beginning at 8 a.m., a myriad of past favourites and new events will be in store for visitors including the 3 km Fun Walk/Run, Canada Day Dog Paddle, Amazing Digi Race, sumo wrestling, pie eating contest, market place, scavenger hunt, kidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fishing derby, air castles, Canada Day Parade, and a fireworks finale at dusk. There is certainly no shortage of events to attend and we encourage you and your family to get out and enjoy some of the fun. Happy Canada Day everyone!

A touching story of love from Britain’s capital EMC Lifestyle – In January I wrote a column about celebrations to mark the 150th anniversary of the subway system in London, England which are continuing all of this year. The London Underground, which first began operations on January 10, 1863, is the world’s oldest subway system. “The Tube,” as it is colloquially called, is a vitally important feature of one of the world’s great cities. Without it London, with its huge population, simply could not function properly. Over the course of the last 20 years my wife Kathleen and I have spent many months exploring Britain’s sprawling capital city. London is one of our favourite places and we hope to spend even more time there in the future. Given the immensity and the complexity of the London subway it is a remarkably efficient way to get around. Next to our passports, airline tickets and hotel reservations, a London Transport pass is the fourth most important thing on our list when we are preparing for a visit to England. We travel the Tube many times each day during a stay in London. When the London subway first opened, 150 years ago this year, long queues formed as people vied to board carriages which were lit by gas lamps. At the time they could travel three miles using seven stations on what was then called “the Metropolitan Railway.” Today the Tube runs for 250 miles (402 kilometres). There are 11 lines linking 270 stations. The system carries nearly four million people daily, which translates into 1.1 billion journeys annually. As I pointed out in the previous article the London Underground is certainly not perfect. It is not for the faint of heart nor is it particularly user friendly for the handicapped, elderly or infirm. There are only 122 lifts (elevators) which means customers most often use escalators (there are 410) and staircases. At busy times the crush in the stations and the carriages themselves can be intimidating and you need your wits about you to navigate the ticket halls and passageways. You have to be reasonably physically fit because the walk to and from the platforms, especially in certain stations, can be very long. Lengthy passages and plenty of stairs! There have been many stories related to the Tube this year in the midst of the 150th anniversary observances. The Queen made a rare excursion on the underground and her eldest son and heir Prince Charles took only his second ever subway ride. His first was in the company of a nanny when he was

London icon Mind the Gap is so well known that it has been immortalized on t-shirts and every souvenir imaginable. I have a pencil sharpener in my home office with the same message emblazoned on it. To us that message says “London” in the same way Big Ben does! A few weeks ago I read a touching story related to that very same subway PA announcement. I don’t believe it was very well publicized here. I first read the story on the BBC news website and later saw a short newspaper account here. The BBC story explained that a widow’s wish to hear her late husband’s voice again has prompted London subway officials to restore a 40-yearold recording of the system’s famous “Mind the Gap” announcement. London Underground staff tracked down the voice recording by Oswald Lawrence after his widow, Margaret McCollum, approached staff and told them how much it meant to her. McCollum, a retired physician, told the media that she used to frequently visit Embankment Station, a major subway hub in Central London my wife and I are very familiar with. She stopped there just to listen to her husband’s voice. She planned her journeys in order to hear Oswald’s announcement, even before his death in 2007. “After he died, I would stay on the platform. I would just sit and listen to it again and again. It was a huge comfort. It was very special,” she told re-
porters. Last November Margaret was surprised and disappointed to hear another voice making announcements at Embankment Station. On checking with staff she was told the station now has a new broadcast system and could no longer use the old recording. Oswald Lawrence, by the way, was a drama school student with a distinctive voice when he auditioned for the Tube recording. He went on to become a theatre actor and later worked for a tour company. Margaret’s inquiry did not fall on deaf ears! In fact senior London Underground staff was so moved by her story of love that they located the recording and gave the widow a copy of the announcement on a CD for her personal listening pleasure. But Nigel Holness, director of the London Underground, says they decid- EMC Events – Claire and Jamie Seymour point out the species collected to go even farther.

As of noon Saturday, 61 regNot surprisingly Margaret is overistrants (up from 50 last year) were well on their way to identifying this whelmed by the response. She has expressed delight and says she is looking year’s goal of more than 400 species of plants and animals. A couple forward to hearing her late husband’s of highlights this year were a rare five-line skink and “more than 100” distinctive voice booming through the bullfrogs. The bioblitz is intended to be scientific as well as educational and the official tally will be on the Naturalists website in September. Tube once again. Photo/Craig Bakay So, who says people in large cities are cold and uncaring? This heartwarming tale of love certainly debunks that very erroneous idea! I think it is the nicest, related story to emerge thus far during the 150th anniversary of the venerable Tube. Next time we are in London we will make a point of listening for Oswald Lawrence’s One of Ontario’s Largest Custom Home Builders voice telling us to “Mind the Gap” at The Glengarry Embankment Station.

a youngster. That brings me to a story I want to share with you this week. Anyone who has ever been to London and traveled on the Tube will be familiar with the public address system. In fact it is impossible to miss the oft-repeated warning “Mind the Gap” which tells passengers to be careful not to stumble into the opening between subway carriages and station platforms. The gap can be significant at certain stations and along some sections of the platform.

My Take BY MARK HASKINS
in support of the Children’s Cancer Fund at KGH What is the Children’s Cancer Fund at Kingston General Hospital and why is it important? Treatment-related out-of-pocket expenses consume about 1/3 of an average family’s after-tax income and it is not uncommon for one parent to leave work in order to care for a sick child. Families from across our region often have added expenses related to their children’s illnesses that are not covered by insurance or any other source such as parking, travel, and accommodation for out-of-town treatment. For this reason, the Children’s Cancer Fund at KGH was created to assist families with the burden of these added costs. The fund is sustained by generous donations from the public.
What is the Skate with Taylor Hall event? Children aged 6-14 can register to participate in a half-day skills competition with Edmonton Oilers forward Taylor Hall. A silent auction will be taking place in the Invista Centre lobby.

EMC Entertainment - Man of Steel is an ambitious and daring retelling of Superman’s story. It’s a true spectacle, but Zack Snyder may have over-reached. Snyder begins on Krypton with KalEl’s birth, and the events that force his parents, Jor-El (Russell Crowe) and Lara Lor-Van (Ayelet Zurer), to send him to Earth. We then get glimpses of Clark’s (Henry Cavill) time growing up with his adopted parents, Jonathon BY JOHN TUCKERand Martha Kent Kent (Kevin Costner) (Diane Lane). We also watch him make his way through the world alone until he finds a piece of his past. Clark learns that the military has found a crash site. Clark explores the site, and discovers an ancient Kryptonian scouting craft. Once onboard he inserts a small control key from his own space ship and meets his father. The holographic recording of Jor-El’s consciousness teaches Clark about his past, the destruction of Krypton and the crimes of General Zod (Michael Shannon). Zod and his commanding officers survived the destruction of Krypton, locked away in the Phantom Zone. When Krypton exploded Zod and his people were freed. They soon began searching the galaxy for a way to rebuild Krypton which is why they’ve come to Earth. Zod would use Clark,
Canada Jack
and the genetic information locked inside him, to rebuild Krypton. If Clark can’t stop Zod all of humanity will be wiped out. Man of Steel has a lot going for it. The scope of the story is epic as it attempts to give the audience insight into who Superman is and the events that make him a hero. It’s thrilling, exciting and larger than life. The cast is flawless. I loved Amy Adams as Lois Lane. Russell Crowe is a fantastic choice to play Jor-El, and Kevin Costner and Diane Lane are perfect as the Kents. Of course the film is nothing without Henry Cavill and Michael Shannon. Cavill is a truly great Superman, and as every hero needs his villain, Cavill has Shannon who delivers a brilliant performance. The special effects are mind blowing. This is how a Superman movie should look and feel. This is how gods wage war among mortals. It is stunning from the first look at Krypton to the final battle that levels half of Metropolis. With all that’s good in Man of Steel it is a shame the film is so choppy. It jumps all over the place. Snyder needs another 20 minutes to make his scene transitions smoother, but he doesn’t have it. On top of that the fight scenes are incredibly hard to follow. I understand Snyder wants his Kryptonians to be god-like, and has them moving at god-like speed, but you have to remember your audience is mortal. A little slow motion and a few freeze frames would have gone a long way. Man of Steel is great spectacle but the execution is a little off. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature of the EMC.

When the bee stings
sion early, and I went to greet the awaiting media with smiles and no one was the wiserâ&#x20AC;Śuntil someone looked at my hand. By this time, it was three times the size it should be, my face was white and suddenly I needed the medic. Thankfully, being in a concert venue, medical staff was on site. They looked me over, discovered the stinger still in my hand, removed it, applied ice and, just like that, sent me on my way. I continued my work at the event, with updates from my daughter. It turned out it was just â&#x20AC;&#x153;growing painsâ&#x20AC;? and all was fine. The show was the same, a few â&#x20AC;&#x153;growing painsâ&#x20AC;? but nothing that couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be fixed. As for me, I arrived back at the airport (my second home) and powered up the phone in time for a call from my husband. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s this I hear about appendicitis?â&#x20AC;? he said. I smiled into the phone and replied, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Crisis averted,â&#x20AC;? as I gazed around at my choices in location to grab a beverage: the Coffee Roaster or the Martini Lounge? I look at my red hand, less swollen than the day before and marched into the Martini Lounge. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face it, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s five oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;clock somewhere, right? For a refreshingly sweet summer Martini, the Peartini is the perfect choice. Total Time: 3Â minutes.

On one such trip, I was on-site for opening night. When you work in entertainment, there is nothing like the hush of the audience as the house lights dim and the show begins. I love it. This particular night, the lights dimmed and I felt a sharp pain in my right hand. I brushed it away and carried on. Just before the second act, my hand started to swell. It turned out that what I had felt earlier was a bee sting. It began to throb and swell even more. About the same time, a rather large flying prop in the live scene got stuck mid-air. By now, the hush turned to a mutter and only grew louder when the house lights sprang one. (In this business, you never want the house lights up unless it is intermission or the show has ended.) I glanced down at my watch. It was time for the media to be ushered in for photos and clips to capture for the show. I rushed in to damagecontrol mode. While running down the hall, my mobile phone rang. It was my daughter. She was at the hospital. Apparently, she was suffering from a sore tummy, maybe Appendicitis, and was being sent for tests. The world stopped and crashed to an abrupt halt. My child needed me. It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter that my hand was burning and that I had 8,000 people in the next room waiting for a prop to drop. My child was sick and I was thousands of miles away. I took a deep breath to clear my head (the show must go on) and continued to put out the fire. I told myself that I was only a plane ride away. We organized intermis-

For the past two years, I have worked from a home office. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no less busy than working in a traditional office environment, but the bonus is closeness with family, things like the little after-school chats with my daughter. The downside to this working arrangement is that I have to travel for work. You may wonder why travelling for work is a bad thing. I have never understood how Dads go away and make it seem easy. They pack a bag and are comfortable in the knowledge that everything is fine at home. I am not knocking men, my husband misses his family very much when he is away and we miss him too, but the reality is he packs a bag and walks out the door. Moms never truly experience the same exit. A mom is the glue that holds everything together. I love
my child, my home and my job, but there are days when I look up at all the balls in the air and feel as if my head is going to pop off. The airport is my temporary headquarters when I travel for work. As soon as the car approaches â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;park and flyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, my cell phone is powered up. I take work calls, follow up on emails and calls from home. I have bought a house between connecting flights, averted disasters at work commonly referred to as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;work fireâ&#x20AC;? (definition: when your boss needs something they should have asked for yesterday and you have to find a clever way to do it from afar), assisted with a tick removal from the family dog and located the butter in the one place no one ever puts it (in a butter dish). My job is to coordinate the marketing for live touring shows. Mostly I can do this from my home office, but at times I fly in for opening nights to ensure things go well for the artists and the media.

The Frontenac EMC - Thursday, June 27, 2013
The theme for the evening is Then and Now. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be like the heyday of the 1940s and early 1950s,â&#x20AC;? said Mainse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be going with music from that era and music that was popular during the war.â&#x20AC;? Mainse explained that the community offers great support to the event, with many businesses stepping up with items for the silent auction. One of the auction highlights includes a barbeque donated by Canadian Tire. That item is being partnered with a local chef who will prepare a dinner for eight at the winnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home. Also up for auction is a day, including a picnic lunch, for eight people on board a 40-foot mahogany launch from the Antique Boat Museum. The Heritage Museum will be launching its new website at the Summer Evening. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our website has been pretty dated,â&#x20AC;? said Mainse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be launching a rebranding with our website about Our Story Preserved. The logo looks like an open book. The new site will feature Facebook, Twitter and blog links and will be compatible with smart phones and tablets.â&#x20AC;? Mainse said that with the support of things like this annual fundraiser the museum has moved from a deficit into a surplus funding position over the past several years. The newest funding goal of the museum is for the Tower Project. The focus is the museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wheelhouse, which offers a panoramic view of the river. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been long held as a dream within the board that the tower be transformed into another exhibit,â&#x20AC;? said Mainse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the past two years weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to do some significant things within the building. Exhibits have been created and others have been refreshed. Along with revenue from the fundraiser, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll receive a
matching pledge from the Arthur Child Foundation for the tower project.â&#x20AC;? She explained that when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s completed, a guest will be able to feel whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like to drive one of three vessels: a mahogany boat, a tall ship or a speed boat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be three very different trip experiences,â&#x20AC;? said Mainse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re shooting footage for this over the summer in wraparound 3D video, so visitors will feel that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sitting in the boat driving it.â&#x20AC;? If you cannot attend the summer evening spectacular gala, make sure to drop by the museum over the summer. This is a wonderful and highly professional museum, one of my favourites. There are always new exhibits worth exploring. The museum is currently hosting a travelling exhibit created by the Canadian War Museum: 1812â&#x20AC;&#x201D;One War, Four Perspectives. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fairly controversial,â&#x20AC;? said Mainse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because it interprets the war through the eyes of the four participating forces: Canadian, American, British and First Nations. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very large exhibit and certainly has a presence on our main floor. It will be here until August 25.â&#x20AC;? On July 4, an art exhibit opens featuring paintings by a guild of artists from New Brunswick. After the buildup of troops in Sacketâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Harbor, New York, in February 1813, the 104th (New Brunswick) Regiment of Foot set out from Frederiction, heading to Kingston. They travelled 1125 km and reached Fort Henry on April 12. A group of artists with access to a journal of a commander of the 104th Regiment used it as inspiration to create paintings to commemorate that walk. The paintings will travel from the New Brunswick Legislature to the Heritage Museum in Gananoque. Continued on page 17

DAYTRIPPER Continued from page 16
The showing will open on July 4 from 6 to 8 p.m. You’ll have an opportunity to meet the artists and see the paintings on that night. “This year, we also have a collection if military artifacts on exhibit in the west room on the main floor,” said Mainse. “It’s a perfect pairing of these artifacts and the paintings.” Mainse said she hopes the paintings will be available for viewing for a few weeks, but an end date for the exhibit has not yet been announced. If you’d like a special way to celebrate Canada Day away from parade crowds, the museum will start serving cake at noon on July 1. “We serve it until it’s all gone,” said Mainse. “That usually takes about an hour and a half.” The museum will offer heritage teas on July 10 and 24 from 2 to 3 p.m. “It’s an opportunity to experience tea the way it was enjoyed in a simpler time,” said Mainse. “We’ll have lovely sweets and plates nicely fixed up in the rotunda. We’ll use vintage linens and wonderful tea cups.” On July 3, 17 and 31 the featured treat at the museum will be an old-fashioned lemonade stand with fresh made lemonade at one dollar per glass. The alternating tea and lemonade events will hopefully continue in August. Given the museum’s positive funding base, they’ve been able to hire an applied museum studies graduate to focus on the museum’s growing edge: programming.
“It’s the direction we need to move,” said Mainse. “We have to start reaching out to the community at a variety of levels. We’re developing a program that we can take to schools. It’s our museum in a suitcase. We can really maximize some of our artifacts.” Mainse said that the programming will expand beyond schools. There’s the history tourist to consider. “Hopefully, our season of visitors will get expanded from six months into the shoulder season as well. We’re looking at ways to engage people beyond September.” Finances are not an issue for anyone wanting to visit this amazing museum. Every visit is by donation. “In this time of fiscal constraints with so many families struggling to make ends meet, it’s wonderful to be able to offer to anyone the opportunity to spend a day wandering through the museum and experience the past and all there is to offer,” said Mainse. “If someone can’t afford to put anything in the donation box, no one is watching. Families can come and take away lots of great learning and experience. Meanwhile, at the end of the street, there’s a park and splash pad.” Make sure to keep checking the museum’s website. There’s a lot going on this summer. I’ve only touched on some of the events. For more information about the museum: ivillage@cogeco.net, www.1000islandsheritage.com. Tickets for the 6th Annual Summer Evening in the Islands are $125 (You will receive a tax receipt for $70 of that as a deductible donation). To obtain tickets, call 613-382-2535.

20 short minutes north of the 401 and well worth the drive! The Frontenac EMC - Thursday, June 27, 2013

Father was so overworked and overtired this time of year Mary Cook
Columnist
editorial@theheritageemc.ca
EMC Lifestyle - Would he topple over and fall out of the rocker? Would he hit the floor with a thud, and maybe bang his head on the oven door? I was sitting at the kitchen table. I was alone. My sister Audrey said she had better things to do than waste time looking through Eatonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s catalogue. The three brothers were doing what they did every night in the summer... they were outside throwing balls, using their sling shots, or shooting off their B.B. guns. Mother was in the garden. It was just me and Father in the kitchen. The sun was still streaking through the west window, and the kitchen had been redded up, and bedtime was a couple hours away.  I sat very quietly watching Father. He looked smaller, I thought. Maybe it was the way he was sleeping in the rocker. He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hear his pipe fall to the floor, and the Ottawa Farm Journal lay across his knees unopened. His chin was on his chest, and I could see him breathing as his plaid shirt gently rose and fell. It had been a long day for Father. Chores were done before sun-up. The plow and other farm pieces of machinery had been moved on the stone boat to the back fields across the Bonnechere and over the West Hill weeks before. By the time Father was
finished with the morning chores, the milking done, and eaten his breakfast, he would be ready to take the team across the shallowest part of the Bonnechere and head over to the back fields. He would have picked up the basket of lunch Mother had made the night before, and we wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see him again until it was time to come back home for the evening chores. And so I sat and watched Father, and wondered if he would have enough strength left to even get out of his clothes and fall into bed. Dust of the fields still clung to his face. He had taken off his work boots and his heavy wool socks were covered in soil and bits and pieces of grass. I knew if he rolled down the legs of his overalls, there would be more of the same trapped in the folds. I could see the edge of his combination underwear showing under his plaid shirt, and I wondered if I dared go and straighten up his head, so that he would be more comfortable. But of course, that would waken him from his much needed sleep. I wondered why he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go to bed right after his supper, as I sat and watched his worn -out body curled uncomfortably in the old rocker. But then, he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be able to check on the barns, which he never failed to do before falling into bed. No, this was Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s routine, and nothing was going to change it this time of year. There were fields to plow and cultivate, and grain to plant, and scant time to do it in, as Father tried to outsmart the weather. And so, from dawn to dusk, Father like every other farmer
around us, was tied to the habits of the season. Father wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a big man. The three brothers were all taller by several inches. My brother Emerson towered over him. But Father was wiry, and as straight as a die. As as I sat and watched him, I was scarcely breathing and making not a sound, so that I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t disturb his rest, I thought he looked so much older than he did before summer planting began. He was always so much more tired after supper this time of year. The heat of the day was heavy on him, and even though it was summer, he still wore his plaid shirts with the long sleeves. But he did give up his felt hat with the ear lugs, changing to his old battered straw hat, with the wide black headband, marred with the sweat off his brow. I sat quietly, watching Father breathe, not a muscle stirring in either of us. I was overcome with a deep sadness, as I looked at him in the rocking chair, his feet in their usual place on the turned-down oven door. And I wondered, can someone die from overwork? What if one day he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come home from the back fields?Â
What would happen to us? The sun had gone down behind the grape arbour, and the kitchen was darkening, but yet there was daylight, and I was still alone at the old pine table, Eatonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s catalogue unopened in front of me, and with my eyes never leaving Father. He would stay there until everyone came in from outside, banging doors, and scraping their feet on the mat, and tossing their bats and balls into the box beside the stove.  Mother would stop a moment in front of Father and then she would do what she did every night this time of year. She would tap Father on the shoulder...she may have to do it several times to bring him out of his deep sleep. He would slowly
raise his head, and look around the kitchen as if he were lost. I would move myself away from the table and go over to the rocker and pick his pipe up off the floor, and put the Ottawa Farm Journal on the bake table. Father would shuffle over to the bedroom door off the kitchen, and he would turn to Everett and tell him to be sure to check the barns before he went to bed. Soon I would hear the creaking of the bed springs, and if I listened closely from my spot at the kitchen table, I would hear a deep sigh, and then the soft snores as Father settled down his tired body for the night. It was just another day, no different than the one before, and no different than the one coming after.

Choreographers bring their innovative styles to Kingston
R0012098838_0516
EMC Lifestyle – It’s impressive that between them they have about 40 years of dance experience. But consider that they’re both only in their early twenties. Kay Kenney is 23. She started dancing at the age of three. Same for Lauren Runions. Earlier this year, their dance alma mater, the Kingston School of Dance (KSD), hired Kenney and Runions to choreograph two works for debut at the school’s year-end production at the Grand Theatre on June 15. Ebon Gage, the KSD Artistic Director, explained that a Kingston Arts Council grant allowed him to hire the choreographers. Kenney and Runions worked with dancers for the past few months, preparing them for the debut of the choreographed dances. In her dance career, Kenney took some time off in high school to take part in cheerleading at RegiopolisNotre Dame Catholic High School. But when Cats came to town, she auditioned and landed a role. “I rediscovered my love for dance,” she said. “But my first year back I popped my knee and spent six to eight months in rehab.” At the age of four, Lauren Runions took a year off dance to try gymnastics. She went back to dance the next year. “I think I trained at every dance studio in Kingston until discovering the Kingston School of Dance,” she said. “I auditioned and got a role in Cats, the Musical. After working with Ebon (Gage, who choreographed Cats), I switched to KSD she said. There’s no one like him.” After high school, Runions started studying architecture at Ryerson, then transferred to Queen’s University for a fine art degree. While at
Queen’s, she returned to KSD to teach. “While teaching at KSD, I realized I wanted to go into dance professionally,” she said. She completed the dance program at George Brown College. After graduation, she was selected from elite auditions by Cadence Progressive Contemporary Ballet in Toronto and has been dancing with the company, as well as doing freelance dance and choreography, for the past year. Kay Kenney is a graduate of the three-year professional contemporary training program at the School of Dance in Ottawa. She trained for two-and-a-half years with the highly respected Peter Boneham. She has a contract with Ottawa Dance Directive under the artistic direction of Yvonne Coutts. She also dances with Social Growl Dance in Toronto, another contemporary dance company. At the Grand Theatre, Kenney performed a solo within her larger choreographed work, After All. The emotional pain explored in the dance is obvious, but so is innocence. She included a four-yearold dancer in the choreography. The wee one portrays innocence accompanying and taking the hand of the wounded adult. After All, performed to the music of Dinah Washington’s This Bitter Earth—on the Nature of Daylight, is emotionally intense. If you know the song, you’ll understand the dark mood. The dancers work through pain in a process that resembles surgery with no anesthetic, leading to a sweet joy with the presence of four-year-old dancer Ruby DiRinaldo. The piece is inspired by a Stephen Nachmanovitch quote: “The
most potent muse of all is our own inner child.” “I’ve dealt with a lot of crap,” says Kenney. “I feel like an older woman in a 23-year-old body.” She described some of that “crap” for me. In her first year of university, her father passed away. She almost quit dance. “I hadn’t told anyone but I didn’t plan on going back for my second year,” she said. “I had to get over this big hump of sadness. I used it to feed my heart. I did return to school. I’m still trying to figure out why dance is so important. That’s what keeps it so interesting. It keeps me alive. If I’m dancing intensely, I can’t think of anything else. It helps me find the inner child/being.” Kay laughs when thinking of her younger ballet years. “The inspiration was a lot about the awkward inner self,” said Kenney. “I tried to discover a lot on my own. I was a big bunhead (ballet aficionado) growing up. When I first saw dancing in bare feet, I thought, ‘what is that?’ Today, if people ask what I do, I tell them contemporary dance.” At the Grand Theatre perfor-
mance, Jen Pearson, a teacher from the Kingston School of dance, had to fill in at the afternoon show as Kenney had another dance performance in Ottawa. Pearson was supposed to be part of the choreography but had no idea until less than four weeks before the show that she’d be performing Kenney’s solo in the afternoon. But Pearson is also a Kindergarten teacher at the Kingston Mulberry School, so she probably has to be ready for anything on a daily basis. Despite the intensity of the dance, Pearson describes the process of learning it as very positive
for the five dancers involved. “We were all really lucky to have that experience,” said Pearson. “None of us had ever worked with someone like Kay. It was really fun.” The experience itself was emotionally draining. “The first time we did the whole piece together, we were all in tears on the floor,” said Pearson. “When I was dancing, I wasn’t really thinking about it being emotional. But when I curled up at the end, it just hit me. What did I just do?” Continued on page 25

EDUCATION
Academy of Learning College â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Accommodating the student first Written by, Tara Teeling, Facilitator at the Kingston campus of Academy of Learning College. For any potential student, the idea of working toward a diploma is daunting. Regardless of age or background, the stress of accomplishing oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal educational objectives can negatively impact anyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s progress. Aside from the normal challenges associated with balancing a personal life and educational goals, students returning to an educational environment after a prolonged period of time encounter different stressors. This may be related to job loss, financial difficulties, relationship issues, childcare difficulties, physical challenges and, quite often, emotional challenges which may be exacerbated by these other stressors. Any combination of these may work to dissuade an individual from pursuing their educational goals, limiting them so that their plans to find a career that benefits them personally and professionally are permanently derailed. At the Academy of Learning College, this understanding allows for a more accommodating and comprehensive educational experience for all students. With a focus on students as individuals, and a consistent consideration for their particular needs and goals, the college works hard to coach them toward success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What I enjoy most from my experience with Academy of Learning is that I feel better about myself. I found it a lot easier to learn, and the work I do is at my own pace. No one judges me, and there is always a teacher available to help.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Norm Gibson Aside from providing students with the necessary technical skills to meet the job requirements of their chosen career, the college recognizes that it is necessary to help a student develop or restore
of Learning embraces every studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s individuality and prepares them for their career path by providing a balance of quality instruction and sensitivity, so that they are able to build a solid skill set in a positive, encouraging atmosphere. The road every student takes to the college is a different one, but the hope is that they all leave on the same path to success.
belief in their abilities, to help them adjust their thinking and remove whatever misperceptions they may hold regarding their personal limitations. Many students arrive at the college with a clear focus on what they need to accomplish, and are already comfortable working in a scholastic setting. Others, however, begin their first day in a state of anxiety, worried that they have essentially embarked upon a journey they may not have the ability to complete. Knowing this, the college staff works hard to ensure that every student is provided with whatever care is necessary in order for them to succeed. This is done through flexible scheduling, one-on-one coaching and a genuine shared interest in the studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s educational and professional achievement. According to Quincy Emmons, a graduate of Academy of Learning, the friendly atmosphere was what compelled him to choose the college over the many other facilities he had been researching after he made the decision to continue his education. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I received the education I was promised,â&#x20AC;? Emmons stated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The atmosphere was friendly and a relatively stress free zone.â&#x20AC;? Emmons further stated that upon completion of his Business Administration Diploma, he was confident with his new skills and even impressed veteran business professionals with his knowledge and understanding of crucial business strategies and procedures. The Academy of Learning College distinguishes itself from other educational providers by identifying that every person has their own history, their own needs and distinct, original goals. How one person learns may be vastly different from another, but these differences should not impact the student in a negative way or hamper their quest for success. Rather, the Academy

ENCHANTĂ&#x2030; Continued from page 23
Pearson said that the complex work was fairly easy to learn. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The way Kay choreographed, she taught it in phases,â&#x20AC;? said Pearson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were sets of moves she wanted. She told us to take these moves and make our own thing with them. She was clear about what she liked and what fit and what didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. We created something while sticking to Kayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restrictions and guidelines. Each week sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d teach a new phase and then we learned transitions and added them all together.â&#x20AC;? Lauren Runions said the experience of working with the Kingston School of Dance students was thrilling for her. Her choreography included 12 dancers, plus herself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I taught a lot of kids while I was at KSD,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was awesome to come back and see how

much theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d developed and grown. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no question, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to do more of this and work with them in the future. It was great for Kay and I. Kayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very into modern dance and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m classically trained but quirky.â&#x20AC;? She said that her work, Small Memory, focused on someone growing from childhood into their early twenties. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had them remember different moments in life,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was fun developing dance in that way. The solo artists in the piece were moving in ways they wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t normally be used to. I watched these dancers grow so much.â&#x20AC;? Ebon Gage hopes to continue to bring in outside choreographers to work with the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dancers. After he watched the choreographed works by Kenney and Runions at the final show at the Grand, Gage had one word (repeated): â&#x20AC;&#x153;Amazing. Amazing. Amazing.â&#x20AC;?

Celebrating 25 years
EMC Lifestyle - As soon as I heard that there exists a trend involving doing yoga on a paddleboard, I knew I wanted in. While I had admittedly never set foot on a paddleboard until last week, yoga has been an important part of my life for many years, and the thought of going through the poses whilst floating in harmony with the lake seemed like an amazing opportunity. This summer, Trailhead Kingston is for the first time holding a course on SUP (stand up paddle) yoga. Last week, I connected with instructors Michelle McShane and Katie Kyte, who were kind enough to take me out onto Lake Ontario to show me a few moves. “Am I likely to fall in the water?” I asked Michelle on the phone before we went out. “Highly likely,” she answered, and I prayed for sunny, hot day. Mother Nature delivered about as much as can be expected for the underwhelming late Spring 2013, and while the temperature hovered around a chilly 19 degrees, there was sun and calmer than average waters, and I considered myself lucky. Before you can do yoga on a paddleboard, it is first necessary to learn how to operate the board itself, and so Michelle started out by giving me a crash course on how to steer and stand up on the paddleboard. As we paddled around, she explained how the sport started with surf instructors in Hawaii who were looking for a more efficient way of getting to their clients in the water. Michelle noted that she paddleboards at home with her two young children, and that the sport appeals to people of a wide variety of ages and backgrounds. “People that are doing it that have a paddling background I think are just looking for a new paddle sport,” she said. “Maybe it’s people who have done canoeing and kayaking and they just want something new to try. Others are using it as a method of fitness because it can be quite a core workout. Then I see families using it as a beach toy – that’s what I do with my kids, and they really like it.” Over the last three years, she said, the sport has really exploded in Ontario. As for me, I managed to make it through the entire SUP lesson without once falling into the frigid waters, and was feeling quite proud of myself. Paddling along the shore of Macdonald Park, I could tell what a great workout I was getting, and it was fun, too, being in control of this cool surfboard-like thing. Of course, adding the yoga element took it to another level entirely. That’s where Katie came in. She remarked that it was probably only a matter of time before people started combining paddleboarding and yoga, as the boards are big enough to act as mats and thus it was natural for people with a yoga background to begin trying moves on them.
“It’s turned into a way to practice that’s fun and maybe not as serious,” Katie said. “You’re basically on a floating mat and whenever you move in and out of a pose the board is going to respond, so you have to actually slow yourself down and think about the placement of your hands and your feet so that you can achieve that pose on the board without falling in the lake.” Unfortunately, my own “remaining on the board” winning streak ended when I tried to work my way into Warrior 1 pose. My balance was lost, and into the icy water I fell. It was cold, but the shock was the worst part, and I was able to get back up on the board for a few more poses. I was glad I kept with it, too, because as Katie pointed out, doing yoga on a paddleboard is a great way to take your practice to the next level. “A big part of yoga is being present,” she said. “And this certainly forces you to be present because you have so many elements that are surrounding you - the wind, the waves, the sun, people on the beach, people watching, and then just having an unstable ‘mat’ that you’re practicing on. It really forces you to focus on what you’re doing.” Together, Michelle and Katie are excited to introduce the people of Kingston to this cool new sport. “One of the things I really like about teaching is just bringing people out of their comfort zones,” Michelle said. “At Trailhead, we cater towards beginners, so I really enjoy bringing people out and introducing them to something that I do for fun.” “One thing that’s really exciting is this is the first that I know of people doing [SUP yoga] in Kingston,” Katie added. “It’s exciting because we have a great city, there are lots of yoga studios and lots of water. It’s really exciting that it’s coming together for our city.” Trailhead Kingston offers clinics in both SUP yoga and regular SUP, both of which began June 25. SUP yoga training is offered as a five-week course; however, those interested are still able to sign up after the first class, which can be made up. Single session clinics for SUP yoga will begin July 9, and there is also the possibility another five-week course will run later in the summer. Most sessions are held at lakes north of Kingston, where calm waters make for ideal conditions. For more information, please visit www.trailheadkingston.ca.

Local musician Greg Ball finds his “Rightplace” with new album effort.” Ball notes that the style of the songs is “like a singer/songwriter rock with a little bit of alternative country in there,” and that many of the themes deal with relationships – though not necessarily ones he has personally experienced. “I like doing sort of third person songs, writing from somebody else’s
By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@theemc.ca
EMC Entertainment - For local musician Greg Ball, everything seems to be falling very nicely into place. The title of his latest album, Mr. Rightplace, reflects a recent string of positive developments, and his tight-knit relationship with his band members, multiinstrumentalist Joe Carscallen, drummer Rob Radford and bassist Paul Muller. “I think as far as people I could have hooked up with to produce and record this record with me, I was pretty blessed and feel like I was in the right place – hence the name” Ball says. He describes Mr. Rightplace as “a band record”, noting that it was very much a collaborative work between all four members. This represents quite a departure from his first record, Excessive Until August, which was much more of a solo effort. Both albums were produced by Tragically Hip guitarist Paul Langlois and released under his label, Ching Music. “This record was all done off the floor with the Local musician Greg Ball band,” Ball explains. “Everybody was there, every- point of view in ways that I think they body was sharing ideas. I might write might be thinking,” he says. For example, the song My Forte is a song, and I guess technically it’s my song, but these are the three guys that written from the perspective of a guy sort of shape what the song is going to Ball saw in a bar who was jealously do. They were a really big part of the eyeing his ex-girlfriend with a new man. “I just kind of took that situation of being that bad ex-boyfriend who can’t let stuff go, 14’ Super Snapper and then wrote a

song about that,” he says. Ball remarks that an element of darkness also exists in most of his songs. “I’m not really a shiny happy person when I’m writing songs,” he says. “I’m an extremely happy person when it comes to drinking beers at the bar or being with my family, but [the dark stuff] is just sort of what comes out of me when I write a song.” This coming fall, Ball and his band will embark on their first ever Canada-wide tour, on which they will serve as the opening act for Langlois, who will be promoting his latest solo project. As a father of two children, 13-yearold Max and fouryear-old Henry, Ball notes that it will be difficult to be away from his family for a month; however, he is still very excited for the opportunity to be a part of such a big tour with such a high-profile musician. “I sort of wish I was 22 doing it,” he says. “Now I’m in my mid-thirties, but it’s still the chance of a lifetime. Primarily I think it’s just going to be a lot of fun.” Indeed, Ball has played alongside Langlois since 2010 as part of the Campfire Liars Club. “The first gig I played I sort of got to know Paul on stage,” Ball says. “Holy smokes, I was nervous, but he’s a very relaxed and easy-going guy. He’s just a normal dude and we became good buddies. This tour going to be a riot.” For more information or to listen to Ball’s music, please visit www. gregball.ca, or his Facebook and YouTube pages. He is also on Twitter at @gregball75.

Local storyteller launches production company with the help of Summer Company program By Kristen Coughlar kcoughlar@perfprint.ca
EMC Business – Sometimes one finds answers to their problems in unexpected places. Spencer Brown did. Brown, a student at Queen’s University, recalls how he struggled to find part-time work in the Limestone City last summer, and how he was experiencing similar issues this year as well. “I was in Kingston last summer and couldn’t find a job, and this summer I was kind of doing the same thing: looking for part-time work and not really finding anything, and then the Summer Company thing came up in a school newsletter,” he says. Summer Company gives students ages 15-29 the opportunity to create and launch a summer business venture. Successful applicants received up to $1,500 in start-up funding, hands-on business coaching, training, and mentoring. The program, which originated in 2001, is facilitated here locally by the KEDCO Entrepreneurship Centre. That newsletter was the answer to Brown’s problem of finding a parttime summer job. “I was like, ‘Oh, that’s interesting. I’d get to be my own boss, be self-employed.’ As the deadline came closer and closer I started to put all my effort into doing that as opposed to finding part-time work,” he says. Creating a production company was the ideal fit for Brown, who hails
from Waterloo, Ont. “I came to Queen’s to be an English major and realized that English majors don’t really write anything,” explaining that it was at that point that he decided to try something different, entering the Film and Media department at the university, in which he has just completed his third year. “I went into film because I like telling stories.” That enthusiasm for story-telling is at the centre of Brown’s Summer Company business. In fact, Brown describes the business as “a grassroots production company that strives to create meaningful, captivating and exciting multimedia projects that reflect a passion for storytelling,” on the company’s website. Brown has given the business the name Dillinger Studios. “I used to play some music with some friends and I would always be coming up with band names and putting them in my phone, and one day Dillinger was just getting thrown around in my brain a lot, and I was like maybe not for a band but for a video studio it might be kind of interesting, and it just kind of stuck,” Brown explains. The business’ services include event and corporate videography, editing and cinematographic services, social media management, web content creation and distribution, etc. “It’s kind of just whatever people need me for,” Brown says, noting that
recent projects have included everything from music videos, short films and web series to weddings and corporate promotions. Since launching the business June 1, Brown says he has been busy with all aspects of the business, and is excited to see how the company develops in the coming months. “Being your own boss is a lot more hectic than I thought it was going to be but it’s fun,” he says. Ideally, Brown says he is hoping that the business is something that will continue beyond the summer and the completion of the Summer Company program. “Over the course of the summer I’m looking to really establish it as a pretty decent studio. We have a couple already in Kingston and I kind of see my-
self competing directly against them in the not so distant future,” he says. “My goal is to use the summer as a launching point.”

The Gertrudes release lead single from new album at special Canada Day concert By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@theemc.ca
EMC Entertainment - This summer, local band The Gertrudes will release their third full-length album, Neighbourhood, and they have devised a fun new way to bring their music to the community. Instead of picking an official album release date, singles will be issued to the public gradually over the coming months. Many of Neighbourhood’s songs will be introduced at a concert the band will give on Canada Day, which will take place in City Park at 1 p.m. as a part of Artfest Kingston. Concert-goers will also be issued free download cards for the album’s first single, All the Dollar Bills Sing Hallelujah. “If you stay in touch with The Gertrudes’ Facebook page and website, you’ll be getting more throughout the summer,” says band member Greg Tilson. Tilson notes the album was spear-
headed largely by his wife and fellow Gertrude, Annie Clifford, who is expecting their first child in mid-July, and guitar player/producer Matt Rogalsky. Both were eager to seize the opportunity to see this art project through to completion before the band undergoes the many changes in store for its near future. Tilson explains that some of The Gertrudes’ many members have recently graduated from university, others are or could potentially be moving, and still more – including himself and Annie – are soon to be adding to their families. “I think Annie and Matt are trying to capture a moment here,” he says. “We’re all here now, we’re all in the neighbourhood now, so let’s capture the songs that we’ve written; let’s capture the sound and the spirit of what we are right now before people move on and before things change.” Tilson notes that the band’s sound has evolved somewhat on Neighbourhood, and is a combination of the big
sound The Gertrudes are known for and more simple, acoustic tracks. The songs’ lyrical themes bridge the gap between the chaotic realm of global politics and the notion of neighbourhood and community. “This is a really important theme for our band,” Tilson says. “We’re all very active in the community and all very engaged politically, but we all live within a four-block radius [of each other] in a neighbourhood. I think if you look at the themes of the lyrics in these songs, you can see how those two worlds intersect and how we make sense of this global world upon the individual in a neighbourhood.” All the Dollar Bills Sing Hallelujah, for example, was written by Jason Erb, and explores the very global issue of big business. Erb’s

second song on the album, Banks of America, is similarly-themed. “They’re really political songs mocking the financial sector and religious right,” Tilson says. “Whereas there are other songs on the album, for example a song called Water on Your Body, about the theme of finding happiness in simple ways. Annie Clifford wrote that, and it’s about how sometimes living in Kingston we feel like all we need is the lake to be happy.” Because Clifford is having her baby this summer, the band will not be playing as often as they usually do, and

Neighbourhood’s official tour will take place in the fall. Community members are thus urged to come out to the July 1 concert and get their Gertrudes fix while they can. “Artfest is a great time to come out with your families and check out all the great fine art and artisans and crafts for sale,” Tilson adds, noting that the band will be performing on the stages in the middle of the park.
