EMC Events - Over the last two decades Elgin has joined hundreds of communities across Canada in keeping Terry Fox’s belief in miracles alive by taking part in the annual Terry Fox Run. “I’m not a dreamer, and I’m not saying this will initiate any kind of definitive answer or cure to cancer, but I believe in miracles. I have to,” Terry Fox said during his 1980 Marathon of Hope campaign to raise a dollar for every Canadian by running across the country.

Since this courageous start The Terry Fox Foundation, through Terry Fox Run participants, has raised more than $600 million for cancer research in a variety of fields.

This investment has led to research into innovative treatment such as tricking resistant cancer cells into self destructing or attacking breast cancer at the genetic level to arrest the progression of the disease.

Researchers have also found a genetic link to ovarian, testicular and uterine cancer, which is increasing hope that thera-

at the Elgin bank and families wanting to take part on the fly are welcome to come out the day of the event to fill out the registration form with a personal donation. The Terry Fox Run has never had a minimum fundraising amount, believing like Terry himself that every dollar towards cancer research keeps hope alive.

“Even if I don’t finish, we need others to continue. It’s got to keep going without me,” Fox said toward the end of his run.

Terry Fox ran a marathon a day for 143 days before cancer returned in his lungs and he was forced to stop outside of Thunder Bay on Sept. 1.

The champion who inspired a nation with his Marathon of Hope died June 28, 1981 at the age of 22. This month hundreds of communities across Canada are working to see a world without cancer by taking part in a Terry Fox Run. The Rideau Lakes Lions Club has been hosting a Terry Fox Run for over 20 years now. A Perth run is also being held at Conlon Farm Sept. 16 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and welcomes participants.

pies can be designed to treat at the molecular level rather than in the area of the body.

September 16 run It is progress such as this that propels organizer and run participant, Ross Hawkins, each September.

“This is one way to give back and work toward a future where we can be without cancer,” Hawkins said. “Almost everyone’s family has been touched by cancer.”

This year’s Elgin Terry Fox Run will be held at the Lions Hall (County Road 8) on a different time to take advantage of the cooler morning temperatures.

Registration will begin at 9 a.m. with a 10 a.m. start. Also new this year will be the addition of a 4 km route. In response to past requests, walkers and runners can now choose from a 2km, 4km and 10km distance.

Hawkins said he hopes the diversity in routes will result in some new faces joining the event this year.

“In most cases it’s the same people,” Hawkins added.

“We’d like to have more runners every year.”

Proceeds of $1,000 will go to the cancer society. Above, Gifford plucks duck number 85 from the pond at the bottom of the tub, belonging to Barb McKnight, a Perth girl who now lives in Burlington.

EMC News – Barb McKnight of Burlington was left speechless on Friday, Sept. 7 when her sister-in-law called her from Cobra Spas and Pools with the good news.

She’d won a $3,500 pink hot tub in a draw for the Canadian Cancer Society. “Oh my God! I can’t believe it,� she said over the speaker phone following the draw at noon Friday. “Are you serious? You are kidding me.�

Once the squeals of disbelief started to fade, she was filled with emotion. “This is so exciting. I have never won anything in my life!�

When asked if McKnight had a spot for her new spa, she said she will find the room, probably on her deck. “What a great birthday gift.

I will use it every day of my life.�

The chain of events began earlier in the year when owners of Cobra Pools and Spas Inc., Judy and Bill Brady decided to sell tickets on a pink hot tub as a cancer society fund raiser. “We started selling ducks for $5 with the idea that we were doing this as a fundraiser for the cancer society,� Judy said. “We got our pink hot tub from our supplier Lumi-O and have been selling the tickets for a few months now. We sold $1,000 worth and will be presenting a cheque to the Perth officer of the Canadian Cancer Society.�

Amanda Gifford, fund raising coordinator for the CCS was on hand Friday to draw the winning duck.

She climbed into the pink hot tub and stirred up the ducks that filled the bottom.

Pulling the winning ticket belonging to McKnight was totally random. McNight is the sister of Bill Brady, the store owner. “This will be so great for her,� Judy said, her eyes brimming with tears as she rubbed the goose bumps on her arms. “This will mean the world to her and her family.�

In July, McKnight and her family were in Perth and rented a hot tub for their cottage holiday in the area. Barb is from Perth.

Barb added that to pick up the hot tub, she said “We’ll just have to make another trip home‌ soon.â€?

Next year, plans are in the works to hold another hot tub draw.

The executive director is passionate about continuing the service for as long as possible to move forward the organization’s overall goal to end violence. Lanark County isn’t immune to this violence turning deadly. Since 1985 11 women and one young girl have been murdered by their abuser.

Anyone wishing to support Lanark County Interval House is asked to contact their local politicians or MPP Randy Hillier at 613-267-8239. Todd noted MPP Hillier has personally met shelter residents on two-to-three occasions and is well aware of their situation.

the 10th and seeing what can happen at the county level,” mayor Staples said.

Todd is also asking politicians to lobby for increased funding from the ministry to ensure places like Lanark County Interval House remain open. Battered women will feel the slice of budget cuts in more ways than through LCIH. Beginning Jan. 1, 2013 the Community Start Up fund that provided $1,499 to women who were starting their lives over again due to abuse will be canceled.

“There are some rough times ahead for women who are fleeing,” Todd said.

LCIH is the only service of its kind in Lanark County. For the last 33-years Interval House has been offering a variety of services to women and children fleeing abusive environments. In addition to their 24/7 emergency hotline and 15-bed shelter, the organization also provides education and prevention; transitional support and advocacy.

“We take every opportunity we can to get into the schools,” Todd said.

EMC News - Municipalities across Lanark County are being asked to join Lanark County Interval House (LCIH) in their efforts to address a funding crisis that could jeopardize the only area emergency shelter for women and their children.

“We are in a situation,” added Erin-Lee Todd, LCIH executive director.

“We’re not seeing a growing increase that’s equitable from our funders.”

The issue is a projected $59,000 budget deficit for this year when the ministry isn’t expected to provide any funding increases for at least the next five years (and hasn’t for the last three years).

While facing such enormous financial gaps the operators of LCIH are also looking at increased wait times and an ever-growing demand on their many services, particularly with the strain from the economic crunch and job loss.

“We’re seeing an increased rate of first time occurrences,” Todd said.

Last year the 24/7 crisis

line received over 2,200 emergency calls of which 15 per cent were from Smiths Falls and 29 per cent from Carleton Place.

Todd made her first of many presentations to Smiths Falls Committee of the Whole this week (Sept. 10). Before a Lanark County Committee meeting takes place Oct. 10. Todd plans to speak to every municipality in the county to ask them to either approve an annual budget line item for interval house or pass a motion for the same at the county level.

“We’re asking all municipalities to consider what they can do,” Todd said.

The non-profit organization is proposing $5,000 a year from the major towns (Smiths Falls, Perth, Carleton Place, Mississippi Mills) and $3,000 from the remaining townships who receive support from interval house for a possible total of $35,000. Smiths Falls mayor Dennis Staples thanked Todd for her presentation, confirming his attendance at the upcoming county meeting.

“I look forward to hearing your presentation on

Retirement party to serve as fundraiser for LAWS wishlist below the equator including Asia. Her work has also taken her to be a missionary, she’s been to British Columbia, before coming to Ontario and starting at St. Francis de Sales in 1975, where she stayed until 1988, she then taught at North Elmsley Public School, she went to Glen Tay Public School and last year taught at Queen Elizabeth Public School.

Highlights for her during her years of teaching, moments that bring a sparkle to her eye perhaps come from watching children act. She herself is interested in acting, and she is musically inclined.

“Kids have stayed the same throughout the years,” she smiled as her eyes lit up.

“They love to act. Their inner self comes out.”

Another happy memory for Johnson is a book, and a chance meeting with one of her former students. Goblins in the Castle, by Bruce Coville, is a book she read

By MARLA SHOOK mshook@perfprint.ca

EMC Events – Madelyn Johnson has retired after 40 years teaching. To celebrate she is giving back to her community – to the Lanark Animal Welfare Society.

Plans are in the works for her retirement party, set for Sept. 23, 2 p.m. at the North Elmsley Public School gymnasium – but she doesn’t want gifts, nor presents of any kind.

“This is a fundraiser for LAWS,” for items on their wish list, she explained.

Weekly the shelter’s website, as well as the LAWS’ column which runs in this newspaper features a list of items needed, for example canned cat, kitten and dog food.

Throughout her years of teaching she would often incorporate LAWS into the lesson plan. It may sound like a strange feat, however having taught the whole gamut of grade levels, student writer’s block was a common denominator. So to aid the children in finding something to write about she would pull up the LAWS website, ask the children to pick a cat or a dog and tell their story.

“It enhanced their writing,” she explained.

In fact, it was the children in her class one year who picked out a cat for her from the shelter. It all started when she came to work a little grumpy. She had planted some expensive bulbs in her garden, only to come outside and find a squirrel making a snack out of them. The children suggest she get a cat to ward off the varmint and, even better – to get a cat from LAWS. Going through the website the class came up with a choice they felt was perfect for their teacher – a cat named Benny. So off to the shelter she went.

Entering a cat room, instantly one of the felines jumped up on her lap. There with a friend, Johnson wasn’t sure what to do. This cat had picked her out, but yet the class had picked out another cat for her. What was she to do? She remembers, her eyes wide.

Well, she didn’t have to

To mark her retirement after 40 years of teaching Madelyn Johnson is having a retirement party. This part comes with a twist, she is asking for donations for LAWS. Above is Johnson with Tess, almost two years old, and the now famous feline Benny, almost four. worry – the very cat that had jumped on her lap, was the very cat the class had picked out for her – Benny. He hasn’t jumped on her since. Currently he is three or four years old and with a laugh, Johnson explains, the squirrel population is down now.

Having taught so many children throughout the years, she often would “go full circle” and end up teaching the children of the adults who had been in her classroom years prior. She is hoping the, “40 years worth of kids” she taught will come out and enjoy the music, snacks and the afternoon. Some of her former principals will be in attendance to share a few words as part of the event.

She recalls one year a young student whose father she had also taught. The young girl was excited when she was able to sit in the same seat her father had once occupied.

Be a money-mentor You want the best for your kids. That’s why you send them off to school and mentor them at home. Education is vital to success in life, but an important skill-set your kids likely won’t get at school is a dollars and sense education.

Age-appropriate moneymanagement skills that are best learned from you.

Having retired as of Aug. 31, she is, “kind of going through withdrawal,” she laughs. “I’ve been asking friends to help set up their classrooms.”

“It’s never been work,” she said of the job, “I worked hard. I just loved it.”

Originally from Queen’s, New York, she started out her teaching career in Long Island City, New York. But the travel bug was something she had always been afflicted with. While her mother was supportive of the notion, her father was not, and upon graduating from high school he bought her a lifetime subscription to National Geographic, so she could travel the world, all while staying at home.

In the years that passed she did end up seeing the world, she’s been to Switzerland, seen much of Canada and now that she is retired she will be working on visiting locations

6 – 12 years Make saving fun!

Give them a special bank to fill with coins from you and others. Mark their graduation to a real bank account and give them an allowance tied to completing certain tasks. A fixed amount is best because it teaches that serious choices need to be made when it comes to spending or saving.

Get them to buy into payyourself-first strategy by saving at least ten percent of their allowance and explain how interest makes their money grow. Other good money education tools are board games and interactive websites such as the Bank of Canada’s (www.bankofcanada.ca) and the Canadian Foundation for Economic Education’s (www. moneyandyouth.cfee.org).

to her students many, many times. One year the book was liked so much a student ended up “borrowing” it without telling Johnson. But it was recovered and brought back to class. It must be a memorable read, as Johnson ran into a man she had taught, awhile ago. He enjoyed the book so much, but couldn’t remember its title. He asked Johnson if she could tell him, as he wanted to read the book to his kids.

The book, she smiles, is in the fantasy genre and teaches life lessons in a fun way.

Activities in Comrie Scotland marked 20th anniversary of twinning with Carleton Place Evelyn.

Finlayson, who was elected council chairman last year, opened the brief but colourful ceremony. He welcomed the Carleton Place contingent and all those in Comrie who have assisted the process over the course of 20 years. “I’m learning more about this process as we move forward,� he told the EMC in a later interview. “I look forward to visiting Carleton Place and Canada in the near future.�

LeBlanc told the gathering how pleased she and her husband were to be back in Comrie. “Last time we were here (August 2010) marked the first student exchange. We’ve had a 15th anniversary celebration in 2007 and now here we are at our 20th. Lots of firsts over the years but more importantly seconds, fifth, tenths and fifteenths,� LeBlanc noted. “Those past anniversaries and the one this year, our 20th, show that the twinning has worked. There are groups and individuals who are dedicated to keeping the bonds alive and building on what has been accomplished in the past so that there will be a future where we can look forward to a second and third student exchange, a 25th anniversary and many return visits by individuals and groups between Comrie and Carleton Place. “We are delighted to be here to represent our community, to enjoy your Highland hospitality and to begin another decade of a positive, mutually-beneficial relationship,� the mayor told the gathering.

In his remarks Maguire, who along with his wife were on their third official visit to Comrie as members of the Carleton Place committee, thanked past supporters of the twinning arrangement in both communities. “Those of us who are involved today have simply taken the torch from them and it is our job to carry the twinning relationship forward.�

lies with the youth of Comrie and Carleton Place. “The student exchange program, which we are very supportive of, is extremely important. Young people are the future of our communities and our countries. They will be the future of the Sister City program – as we call it – as well.�

A second student exchange involving the twin centres is being planned for next summer.

Following the official remarks the 20th anniversary was consecrated in traditional Scottish fashion. Finlayson opened a bottle of “Highland nectar� – a single malt whiskey – and everyone involved was offered a sip.

LeBlanc took hers rather tentatively but, flashing a smile, offered afterwards that “it isn’t too bad.�

Finlayson and McCartney then poured a little of the malt into the rushing waters of the River Earn, which passes beneath Ross Bridge, to signify the ongoing relationship between the two communities. “Maybe we could paddle from here to Carleton Place,�

Finlayson joked. “It would be fun to try!�

Among the members of the public in attendance was Gregor MacDonald of nearby Crieff. “I have connections in Canada and when I heard about this ceremony today I had to come out and see what it was all about. I’ve really enjoyed it,� MacDonald told the EMC. Posters were placed in various locations around Comrie and district advertising the 20th anniversary event.

Also Aug. 18 the fourmember Carleton Place delegation were guests at a formal, evening dinner held in

the dining room of the Royal Hotel in Comrie and attended by 25 people.

During their five day stay the Canadian visitors were also toured around the Highlands and spent an afternoon at the annual Highland Gathering in nearby Crieff on Sunday, Aug. 19 where LeBlanc’s presence was announced to the large audience in attendance.

The LeBlanc’s and Maguire’s also met Liz Grant, the newly named Lord Provost of Perth and Kinross (head of county council) during a reception in Perth, Scotland which is approximately a 40 minute drive from Comrie.

Grant is the second woman to hold the position. LeBlanc is only the second female mayor in Carleton Place history.

As mentioned the basis of the Carleton Place-Comrie connection is historical.

Many of the early settlers of Carleton Place, Beckwith Township and other areas of Lanark County emigrated from what is now Perth and Kinross, Scotland in the 19th Century. Among them were natives of Comrie, St. Fillans and other villages in the Strathearn region of the lower Scottish Highlands.

The graves of many of those settlers can be found today in cemeteries such as St. Fillans, part of the United Cemeteries in Beckwith, just southeast of Carleton Place.

Carleton Place will celebrate the 20th anniversary this month during the sixth annual Heritage Ball planned for the Town Hall Auditorium on Saturday, Sept. 29. Tickets for the black tie gala are now on sale from any committee member. The event will have a Scotland theme in honour of this year’s special anniversary.

Lees, now a member of a newly-formed twinning subcommittee of Comrie Community Council, will attend the formal dinner-dance here along with his wife Marlyn and their daughter Amanda, a drummer in the Comrie Pipe Band. The Lees have visited Carleton Place on several occasions in the past.

A public reception is being planned which will allow members of the Carleton Place community to meet the Scottish visitors and mark the 20th anniversary.

Started in 1992 Looking back, on Saturday Aug. 1, 1992 ceremonies were held simultaneously in both Carleton Place and Comrie to officially launch a linkage which has now surpassed two decades.

It was Peter McNaughton, a Comrie native who now resides in Pointe-Claire, Quebec (a Montreal suburb), who first pointed out the connection to Carleton Place council and suggested a twinning arrangement would serve the interests of both communities.

His idea led to discussions between officials and residents in both centres which culminated in the formation of twinning committees and the establishment of an offi-

cial relationship.

Among those who were involved in the original twinning committee in Carleton Place were the late Mayor Melba Barker and then councillor Tim Campbell who is now a member of the township council in Beckwith.

Comrie principals included the John Robertson family along with Jimmy Stewart and the late Jimmy McEwan.

At the time McEwan and Stewart were members of the Comrie Pipe Band which was instrumental in moving the relationship forward. The pipe band led official delegations that visited Carleton Place in 1994 and again in 1997.

Carleton Place, Beckwith and Lanark County residents have made numerous excursions, both official and unofficial, to Comrie over the years.

With the relationship firmly entrenched after 20 years, the student exchange is now an important part of the twinning relationship. With a second program planned next year it is hoped exchanges can be held every two or three years depending on the available financial resources.

EMC Lifestyle – It has been one of the wettest summers on record in Scotland and much of the United Kingdom. Right on cue, however, the sun emerged and shone brightly during an outdoor ceremony held to mark the 20th anniversary of the twinning relationship involving Carleton Place and the Highland village of Comrie.

The afternoon event took place Saturday, Aug. 18 on the Ross Bridge (circa 1792) where a similar ceremony was held two decades earlier to officially establish a link between two communities who share an historic connection.

Twenty years to the month after the twinning was first formalized Carleton Place Mayor Wendy LeBlanc and Andrew Finlayson, chairman of Comrie Community Council, wore broad smiles as they strode arm in arm to the centre of the historic stone bridge. Their walk opened proceedings and signified the close ties that exist between the Canadian town and the Scottish village.

A lone piper serenaded the crowd comprised of current and former twinning committee members, local politicians and members of the public from Comrie and district. The red Canadian maple leaf flag and the Saltire, Scotland’s national flag, hung side-by-side on the facing of the impressive structure.

LeBlanc was accompanied by her husband Frank and

by Jeff Maguire, chairman of the Carleton Place Sister City Committee and his wife Kathleen. All four are members of the twinning organization in Carleton Place.

Among the official Comrie representatives were council vice-chairman David Robertson and councillors Gordon McCartney, Sandra McRitchie and Gillian Brock.

Also playing an official role was George Lees, the longtime head of the Comrie Twinning Committee, who was responsible for organizing the itinerary for the Canadian visitors. Sandy Gray, the chairman of Comrie council at the time of the original ceremony in 1992, was also in attendance with his wife

With a small amount of effort, I will bond very quickly with new people. I am slowly becoming more readily able to trust. I am young and very clever. I will require training with a compassionate and dedicated individual.

I do not trust children, but I love other dogs.

Herbie is a Shepherd/Collie mix, black and tan male, two years of age.

I have tonnes of energy and need high impact exercise and training to keep my mind focused. I get along well with the ladies (female dogs) and fancy myself somewhat of a ladies man. I do butt heads with other male dogs occasionally. I’m somewhat of a clown and very entertaining to watch. I need regular quiet time so I don’t get too over excited... naps are great. An experienced Boston Terrier owner would be preferred.

A brand new season of warm, wonderful live theatre EMC Entertainment - Once again, browning leaves and chilly mornings herald the end of summer and the start of fall and winter. And although cold weather may not be your cup of tea, there’s a very entertaining way to warm the coming months: the brand new season of great shows at the Studio Theatre!

Last year’s season was an unqualified hit, highlighted by blockbusters like Steel Magnolias, Neil Simon’s Chapter Two, the mystery/drama An Inspector Calls, and the Academy Award-winning Doubt.

For 2012/2013, Artistic Director David Parry and his team of theatre veterans have put together another outstanding calendar of thought provoking dramas and knee-slapping comedies.

Beginning Oct. 11, look for the premiere of Frederick Knott’s classic nail-biter Wait Until Dark, directed by Norma Cummings. In November, the ever-popular Evening of One Act

Plays debuts, featuring three one-acts including George Bernard Shaw’s Overruled, which is the Studio Theatre’s entry in this year’s Eastern Ontario Drama League One Act Festival.

Then, to warm the holidays, it’s the funny, nostalgic theatrical greeting card The Christmas Express, written

by Pat Cooke and directed

by Joan Sonnenburg.

Premiering Valentine’s Day 2013, enjoy Rachel Sheinkin’s quirky The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, directed by C. Lee Bates and featuring music and lyrics by William Finn.

As spring arrives, so does $38,000 for a Friendly Face, written by Kristin Shepherd and directed by Roberta Peets. Set in a funeral home, this offbeat rib tickler is full of eccentric characters and heart-warming truths.

Finally, veteran director Jeremy Dutton brings us Proof, about the daughter of a deceased mathematical genius who claims to have written a seemingly impossible mathematical theorem. Did she write it? Can she prove authorship and escape the mental illness that plagued

her father? Proof is a Pulitzer prize-winning drama by David Auburn, premiering June 20.

A subscription to the Studio Theatre’s 2012/2013 season is the perfect reason to emerge from hibernation during the winter months. And at one low price for all six plays, it’s also one of the best entertainment bargains around. Subscriptions are just $109 cash at the theatre’s box office, open Saturday mornings from 9 a.m. until noon until Thanksgiving. For credit card and phone orders, visit Tickets Please on Foster St., 613-485-6434 ($120 including convenience fee).

From actors and directors, to set builders and ushers, the Studio Theatre is the only community theatre in Perth operated 100 per cent by volunteers. Every dollar generated by the theatre’s productions goes directly into maintaining and operating the building and its services to the community.

NOCO Fuels Canada awarded Esso branded Fuels and Lubricants reseller business for Eastern Ontario by Imperial Oil A recent investment by a family owned company is making business news in Eastern Ontario.

“With almost eighty years of experience in the energy business, we are honoured to have the opportunity to serve the hard working consumers of this region,” noted Mark Yeatman, General Manager of NOCO Fuels Canada, a wholly owned subsidiary of NOCO Canada.

With this expansion, NOCO has established more local offices to efficiently and safely deliver high-quality products at competitive prices. With office locations in Toronto, Trenton, Ottawa and Pembroke, NOCO simplifies access for their customers by allowing them to get all of their products from one place.

Our distribution model is strong and this new venture will provide strong value to the consumers throughout the region,” said James D. Newman, President of NOCO Canada.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Amazing perseverance DEAR EDITOR: The resolve and perseverence displayed by the people of Elliot Lake is both astounding and inspiring.

With the recent tragedy centered around the collapse at the Algoa Mall (and the implications thereof) there is no doubt that this northern Ontario community has suffered a severe blow.

Still, after having spent a few days there recently myself, I can truly say that the spirit of optimism remains and this town will recover. Just as it has had to do in the past when the uranium mines shut down and the city redefined itself as a retirement community.

Stories and personal accounts by those who were in the mall when the incident happened are many as it’s a wonder the list of casualties wasn’t much bigger. The many acts of kindness and displays of generosity that have been happening since continues to grow. Life indeed goes on.

There is also a certain amount of resentment on behalf of the citizens towards the national media whom many believe has

been sensationalizing things too much. The recent discovery of a long submerged body in a nearby lake and a stabbing incident has been connected to the mall cave-in in some accounts. (To suggest the idea of a supposed “curse” or “jinx?”)

Downtown at the Club 90 Drop-In Centre volunteers and staff attempt to address the many needs and personal problems that come their way. There is much to do. Temporary shops and stores need to be established. Over 300 people have lost their jobs due to this tragedy. Shoes need to be handed out. Appointments have to be kept. Bills have to be paid. Living in a remote place, many residents really just need to get away from it all for awhile.

Sadly; the “let’s cover our butts” theme is running rampant.

There are bureaucratic and managerial battles being fought over just how the aid will be distributed.

In spite of it all, in the lives of the real people, togetherness, cooperation and positive results can be witnessed all over.

Lyle Dillabough

EMC Editorial – It may have been gone for a number of years but it’s far from forgotten.

West Nile Virus, that nasty bug carried by mosquitoes and transmitted to humans through their bites has reared its head again late this summer.

Parts of the southern United States have been hardest hit with more than two dozen people losing their lives as a result of the disease in north Texas. The city of Dallas, Tx., even went so far as to declare a state of emergency over the situation. It appeared Canada might be spared, but reports from Ottawa Public Health last week proved that won’t be the case. Two residents have contracted the virus and it’s likely other cases will be reported in the days ahead.

Last month, the Leeds, Grenville & Lanark District Health Unit issued a release outlining ways local residents can reduce their chances of being struck with the potentially life-threatening virus.

Homeowners can certainly do their part by removing any standing water on their property. These are proven breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Given the heavy rains received over the past week and the return of warmer weather, remaining vigilant is a key to keeping the bugs at bay.

Residents can also take various precautions to ensure they don’t get bitten. Wearing light-coloured clothing is a start. This includes pants and long-sleeved shirts and even a hat to minimize the amount of exposed skin.

Mosquito repellent with what the health unit calls “the appropriate amount (20 to 30 per cent) of DEET” is also key. Keep in mind that children should wear a repellent with between six and 10 per cent DEET. And try to limit outdoor activities between dusk and dawn, the health unit reports. This is the time mosquitoes have been found to be most active. Staying within a screened area where possible is recommended as is the use of mosquito netting if one is sleeping outdoors. Be sure to follow the labels when using inspect sprays and be aware that alternative bug ‘repellents’ such as citronella candles, bug zappers or other electronic devices have only a minor effect on mosquitoes.

Fortunately, the tri-county area continues to be low risk. But the fact West Nile Virus still exists proves the ongoing mosquito trapping and testing program, which now dates back a decade, needs to continue. As the health unit notes, “WNV is a preventable disease and can be easily done if we all work together to eliminate mosquito breeding sites and protect ourselves from being bitten by mosquitoes.”

Blue sugar bowl was sometimes lacking EMC Lifestyle - There was no doubt about it, Father needed a new suit. The only one he owned was threadbare, and even though he hadn’t grown an inch, the cuffs on the legs were above his ankles. No doubt because Mother had tried to wash it one Monday, and now even the sleeves were too short. No, there was no getting around it. He needed a new suit, and the ad in the weekly Renfrew Mercury was just what the doctor ordered!

Three pieces for $14! Father said there was no money for such frivolity. Mother said going to the Lutheran Church on Sunday dressed like a tramp, raised the purchase well above frivolity!

I knew Mother had waited until the big wood box of hand-me-downs had come from Aunt Lizzie in Regina to make sure there wouldn’t be something suitable from Uncle

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

Jack. But, as always, whatever Uncle Jack once wore, had to be severely altered before it would fit Father! Uncle Jack was about Father’s height. But there the similarity ended. My sister Audrey said he looked like a pineapple. I have no idea how she knew what a pineapple looked like, because I never knew one to come into the house. But I did know Uncle Jack was more round than long! His arms were huge and hung well below his hips, and it always looked like he was carrying a bag of grain under his jacket.

Without altering the suit, you

could put at least two of Father in it.

Now, Mother, when she moved to the farm out in Northcote, tried her best to master the old pedal Singer Sewing Machine. And she did well on simple things like clothes for Audrey and me, and making aprons, and even simple house dresses out of Dan River cotton, but when it came to trying to make Father fit into one of Uncle Jack’s suits, she failed miserably. It always ended up that the suits, after being taken apart, became jumpers or skirts for my sister and me.

The Mercury had come in the middle of the week, and Mother said there was just about enough money in the blue sugar bowl in the back-tothe-wall cupboard to buy the suit. What was lacking would be made up when Mother pedalled her eggs, butter and

chickens on Saturday in Renfrew. And so it was decided, Saturday was the day Father would be getting his new $14 suit. The excitement ran high that week in our old log house in Northcote.

That didn’t mean we could ease off on the workload... chores were done as usual.. morning and night in the barns, and Mother made sure my sister Audrey and I kept up with what was expected of us in the house too. But you’d think we were all getting a new outfit, not just Father, as the day of this major purchase drew closer.

Mother took the blue sugar bowl out of the cupboard a few days before we were to head into Renfrew. She dumped the coins out on the kitchen table with a couple crumbled one dollar bills. Then she moved the money over to the top of the ice box, and stacked the

coins in little piles on top of the bills. The blue sugar bowl went back into the cupboard.

She figured she’d have to sell at least four chickens, five or six pounds of butter, and six dozen eggs to make up the difference between what was sitting on the ice-box and what the suit would cost.

The day before we were to head into Renfrew, just before we were to sit down to dinner at noon hour, Father came into the kitchen with a long piece of harness in his hands. He stood silently at the back door, never taking his eyes off it.

“Broke. Just as I was putting it on Queenie. This is the piece I have fixed at least a dozen times. I’m afraid it won’t take another fixin’... can’t use the team without it.”

He didn’t have to say any more. Mother went to the ice box and slid the coins into her hand with the one dollar bills.

She looked at it for a minute, and then walked over to the door and handed it to Father.

It would take just about all of it to replace the worn-out harness that should have been replaced long before. Horses and their harness meant survival back in the 30’s. A farmer couldn’t farm without either.

Nothing more was said about the $14 suit. We went into Renfrew as usual on Saturday for our few supplies, bought only after Mother made her house calls along the back streets of the town with the cleaned chickens, butter and eggs, and that day she had sticky buns as well.

It would be a long time before the blue sugar bowl had in it enough for what Father called a frivolity like a new suit.

Sunday morning saw him at the Lutheran Church the same old suit he had worn for years.

Breast cancer survivor organizes Rock for the Cure EMC Events – Breast cancer survivor Jackie Barr of the Pakenham area is rallying local musicians together to play for Rock for the Cure Saturday, Sept. 15.

The night of live music to raise funds for breast cancer research will be held from 6 to 11 p.m. at her Love That Barr property at 2496 County Rd. 29 near Pakenham.

Musicians including Woody & The CHEZ 106 Hosers, Stone Bandits, Billy Armstrong, Rockin’ Ray, Back To Memphis (tribute to Elvis), The Garden of Weeds, Just 2 Guys and more will be playing from 6 to 11 p.m.

Proceeds will go toward the CIBC Run for the Cure Sept.

30 in Ottawa.

Stricken by breast cancer in 1997 and again in 2006, Barr is a survivor who promises she will not stop fundraising for breast cancer research until the disease has been beaten.

Talking to Barr is often like having an encounter with a motivational audio book. Her favourite phrases ooze optimism and encouragement. “Take the high road.� “Pay it forward.� “It’s not the destination, but the journey that

counts.�

Fifteen years ago, though, a 32-year old Barr could not have known that her life was about to take a sudden detour.

That was the day she discovered a lump in her right breast.

Less than a month later her doctors confirmed the diagnosis of breast cancer. Barr never thought a disease could change who she was. “What sums me up is that I remember what I’ve been through, and I so appreciate where I am now,� Barr often explains. “My experience battling cancer has made me who I am today.�

Barr is a true fighter. After nine months of chemotherapy and radiation treatments, she was exhausted, but her gutsy spirit couldn’t let it rest. “I couldn’t just sit around and attend my own pity party.

I wanted to raise money for research to beat this disease.�

So in the fall of 1998, just months after finishing her treatments, the CIBC Run for the Cure presented her with the ‘Determination Award’ for being the top fundraiser in Ottawa – the first of three consecutive annual awards Barr

Correction EMC Editorial - In last week’s editorial it was mentioned Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County are not annually or sustainably funded by government.

However some support was received this year from the following local municipali-

ties; Beckwith, Tay Valley, Carleton Place, Drummond North Elmsley and Perth.

Their dollars go directly to programming, and have been instrumental in BBBS’ ability to now serve over 300 children each year – right here in Lanark County.

collected. “I call it FUNraising, since I enjoy meeting people, and have no problem asking them to support a great cause; I’m quite successful at it.�

One of Barr’s favourite adages at the time was “live like there’s no tomorrow.�

After celebrating the pivotal five-year mark of being cancer free, she was also doing her best to be carefree.

She was ‘spreading her sunshine’ and doing her best to ‘raise other people’s spirits’.

She couldn’t have known that after eight years the dis-

ease would again attack her right breast and she’d have an even bigger battle on her hands.

In 2006 Barr opted for a double-mastectomy, feeling that was her best chance of survival. This time cancer didn’t stand a chance. Barr beat the odds and she believes her positive attitude and stubborn determination had a large effect on her recovery.

Fifteen years after finding the first lump, Barr is ‘paying it forward’ in a big way by organizing the inaugural Rock for the Cure on the property

that is partly owned by her brother Jamie.

Barr has also organized Team ‘Love Those Boobs’ to participate in this year’s CIBC Run for the Cure in Ottawa.

Proceeds from both events support the Canadian Breast Cancer Society.

Breast cancer statistics from the Canadian Cancer Society indicate that in 2012 on average 62 Canadian women will be diagnosed with breast cancer every day. On average 14 Canadian women will die of breast cancer every day.

One in nine women is ex-

pected to develop breast cancer during her lifetime and one in 29 will die of it.

Barr’s life may not have taken the path she would have chosen, but she’s overcome adversity and is willing to go the distance to help find a cure for the disease that dramatically impacted her life. “Most people’s lives have been impacted somehow by it, and I will not stop until we wipe it out,� Barr vows. “I will continue to raise money for research until breast cancer has been defeated.�

Walk your PAWS for LAWS in Carleton Place Sept. 23

By MARLA SHOOK mshook@perfprint.ca

EMC Events – Save a life with every step during Walk your Paws for LAWS, a first ever walkathon, Sept. 23.

This emergency fundraiser, which is intended to become a yearly event, is hoped to bring in $10,000 needed dollars for the shelter.

Registration commences at 9 a.m. that morning and the walk begins at 10 a.m.

There are 2, 5, and 10 kilometre routes with prizes for top fundraisers and some fun prizes thrown in there for good measure as well. The

day is scheduled to take place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Carleton Place Arena.

Water and refreshments will be made available along each route. And once again, all funds raised will go directly to the LAWS animals.

For further details or pledge forms, visit www.lanarkanimals.ca. This event will take place rain or shine.

A silent auction is planned and efforts are underway to schedule some entertainment that day. The shelter is striving to have at least 200 people take part, with or without their furry friends.

“This is a chance for citizens to help and support (the shelter),” said Robynne Eagan, who is helping with the organization of the event.

School groups, businesses, families and individuals are encouraged to take part.

Over 23 years ago the Ottawa Humane Society launched an event very similar to this and brought in over $10,000 their first year, according to information from Eagan.

LAWS is also hoping

for volunteer aid during the event, to help with a list of items.

And a list is exactly what LAWS has of upcoming fundraising events. Individuals, and businesses have come forward after hearing of LAWS financial situation wanting to lend a hand by raising dollars.

A Fest for Pets is scheduled to take place in October at Slackoni’s in Carleton Place. Currently in the plan-

ning stages, it is hoped there will be a stage with entertainment, a silent auction and much, much more.

LAWS is holding a ‘Red Cup Solo Party’ Nov. 9 at the Smiths Falls Civitan Club, featuring Ambush. Doors will be open at 7 p.m. with Ambush playing from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m., those attending must be 19 years of age or older. Tickets are $25 each with all proceeds going to the

shelter. Tickets are available at many locations including Ogilvies Automotive in Kilmarnock, Kitley Grocery in Toledo, Hinton Dodge Chrysler in Perth, at LAWS shelter, Smiths Falls Veterinary Clinic, and more.

These are just a few in a long list of upcoming events being put on for the shelter.

For more information about LAWS, please visit www.lanarkanimals.ca.

UCDSB welcomes back students for 2012-13 school year EMC News – Thousands of students returned to Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) elementary and high schools recently to kick off the 2012-2013 school year.

The Board’s 85 schools opened as scheduled, with students enjoying the new Grades 7-12 format at seven more high schools, as well as additional locations for the Board’s full-time kindergarten and Ready 2 Learn initiatives.

“We welcome back all of our students after what was hopefully a restful summer with their families,” said Director David K. Thomas.

“We know that this year will be better than ever for them thanks to the commitment of our staff and the improvements that we’ve put in place at our schools.”

Intermediate students were introduced to the benefits of the new Grades 7-12 format in several schools: Athens District High School, Brockville Collegiate Institute, Thousand Islands Secondary School, North Grenville District High School, Carleton Place High School, Almonte District High School and Rockland District High School. This year’s changes reflect the final improvements to UCDSB high schools made under the Board’s successful Building 2020 process.

Many of the Board’s schools held special gatherings to kick off the new school year.

At Brockville Collegiate Institute (BCI), a morning assembly organized by the student council welcomed intermediate students as part of a new Grades 7-12 BCI family.

The assembly featured an ad-

dress by Olympic silver medalist rower Conlin McCabe, who spoke to students about the value of finding and pursuing their passions to enjoy a successful life.

The assembly also introduced new principal Bill Loshaw to the entire student body. Loshaw participated in a “trust exercise” in which he fell backward off a ladder into a crowd of students, who caught him and then carried him “mosh pit” style across the BCI stage.

“We’re not trying to create a (Grades 7 and 8) school within our school, we are saying that BCI is a new Grades 7-12 school family,” said the principal.

Grades 7 and 8 students at BCI were also given special “I am a Rams Fan” T-shirts and participated in an “Oskee Wee Wee” cheer contest in the gymnasium.

Intermediate and high school students in Kemptville found a home at a new North Grenville District High School. The opening of the $17.3 million facility, now located on Concession Road, fulfilled a promise by the Board to replace the old high school on Prescott Street. The facility features classrooms for Grades 7-12 students, a new gymnasium, an exercise room, a life skills room, computer labs and updated science labs.

At Athens District High School, students enjoyed a welcoming assembly, a Link Crew session for Grade 9 students, a grand opening of the school’s backyard, and a Grades 7 and 8 student orientation.

WILLIS COLLEGE LAUNCHES NEW TECHNOLOGY PROGRAMS TO ADDRESS NEEDS OF THE 21ST CENTURY WORKPLACE “In today’s complex workplace, tech professionals are playing a more critical role in guiding business than ever before,â€? said David Ticoll, Special Advisor to the Canadian Coalition for Tomorrow’s ICT Skills (CCICT). “The culture has shifted, bringing with it the need for technology professionals that have strong communication skills, a timely knowledge base and relevant FHUWLÂżFDWLRQV ´ $FFRUGLQJ WR D UHFHQW study by the Information and Communications Technology Council (ICTC), between now and 2016, Canadian businesses will need to hire more than 100,000 IT workers. In response to call for action, Willis College, an industry leader in career education established successful programs and partnerships with some of the leading organizations in the industry.

In 2011, an innovative partnership was announced between Willis College and FortinetÂŽ (NASDAQ: FTNT), a leading network security provider and WKH ZRUOGZLGH OHDGHU RI XQLÂżHG WKUHDW management solutions. This partnership has now become a best practice model for both organizations.

Why did Fortinet partner with Willis College? In last year’s press release, Michael Anderson, Fortinet’s vice president of Global Services and Support announced that most of the job growth they are seeing at their Ottawa headquarters has been in the area of technical support and with our new professional and education services, it has created a strong platform for aiding in this job growth. “We look forward to working with Willis College exclusively on their security programs and recruiting their best and brightest students as soon as they graduate�

One year later, dozens of Willis College graduates have hired by Fortinet and hiring continues. “The Willis College students we have hired have been exceptional. Some of them have already been promoted and are doing very well in their roles. We are very happy to be a part of this partnership.� Said Ed Isaacs, TAC Director - Americas

August 14, 2012 Letter from Fortinet talks about outcome of their partnership: FortinetŽ (NASDAQ: FTNT) -- a leader in high-performance network security – is growing quickly, with an average growth rate of over 25%. To accommodate this explosive growth, we continue to expand our global presence, including our primary North America support center based in Ottawa.

Employers in the industry told us exactly what they were looking for and in response; Willis College delivered what they wanted, “said Rima Aristocrat, president – Willis College.

We have been particularly pleased with our innovative partnership with Willis College. Over the years we have worked with Willis College to leverage FortiQHWœV WHFKQLFDO H[SHUWLVH XQL¿HG WKUHDW management appliances, FortiGuard security services and technical curriculum to develop and expand Willis’ Technical Career program.

R E T T A N W RO F

Buying a new home can be a dream come true for many families. It will probably also be the biggest investment you will ever make in your lifetime. Not only will a home provide a sense of security, but it will also be the primary inheritance you will leave behind for your children.

But above all, buying a home is an investment that must be carefully planned and budgeted. That means you might have to push aside your dreams and take a good hard look at reality.

For example, what is your current situation, and do you expect it to change in the future? Are you a couple without children?

Do you have school-aged children? How many? How old are they? If it is just you and your partner, remember that it’s important for each of you to have your own quiet space to call your own.

Do you have family members with physical disabilities? If so, you may need extra space for special equipment. What are your hobbies and interests? Does this mean having a large backyard that can accommodate a pool, or a large living room for a home theatre system? Do-it-yourselfers might want a large garage or basement for their workshop, and artists might want to have a large, bright attic to work in. And don’t forget to make sure that you have ample bedrooms and bathrooms!

You also have to consider your finances. How much can you really afford to pay for insurance, taxes, utilities and a mortgage? Don’t forget to factor in the cost of maintenance and unexpected repairs. If you cannot afford to properly care for your home, its value will surely decrease over the long run.

EMC News - Elizabeth Snyder of LGBT Lanark County, addresses the crowd gathered in the foyer of Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute on Tuesday. She served as emcee for the launch of a new anti-bullying initiative that involves the creation of 14 eye-catching posters featuring prominent local residents. The posters will be distributed to all schools in Lanark County.

new website,” noted Bindhardt “www.mtgt.org, where folks can also see photos of last year’s show, won by Almonte’s Impact Drumming Group.”

“A big change this year will be the location of the finale,” says show producer Fraser Scantlebury of the United Way, “which will be at the Mason Theatre, Perth and District Collegiate Institute on Friday, Oct. 26. For the past two years when we were in Almonte, we had fantastic support from the community – great audiences – and our host, Almonte and District High School. In keeping with the County wide nature of the event, we wanted to allow another community to show how they support the talent we have in our County. We’re excited to be going to Perth, and the Mason Theatre at PDCI, where our Emcee for the evening will be Brian Perkins from Lake 88.1. He will be joined on-stage by Donna Stratton from YAK, the Perth Youth Centre, and a guest appearance by last year’s producer/host, and the originator of MTGT, Jeff Gourgon.”

A new feature of this year’s event will be the ability of fans to vote for their favourite act, by donating $5 on-line to the United Way Lanark County.

These votes will be combined with the judges’ choices to select the five finalists, who will perform once more for the sole purpose of impressing the audience, as they are the ones that hold the power of who wins.

EMC Entertainment That’s right – My Town’s Got Talent is back for another year, and looking for the best talent in Lanark County to showcase at the finale in Perth on Oct. 26, presented once again by the EMC and Metroland community papers.

Auditions for this year’s show will take place the first week of October, with the judges stopping for one evening in Mississippi Mills (Almonte) on the 1st, Carleton Place on the 2nd, Smiths Falls on the 3rd, and Perth on the 4th, to select the 15 semifinalists for the show. At the finale, the judges, with help of fans in the county through an on-line poll, will select the five finalists, and the event will once again feature the audience selecting the overall winner from those five finalists.

“It will be hard to top last year’s event,” according to artistic director Christy Bindhardt, “where for the first time we had drummers, a spoken word slam poet, and a contortionist, in addition to an outstanding group of singers. This year, we are going all out, looking for all types of talent. Our new logo says it all – if you can dance, do poetry, drum, do comedy, or are the best entertainer in whatever you do, then we want you out at the auditions!”

This year, auditions will once again take place throughout the county, with the judges holding sessions at local high schools. “All of the details for auditioning are on this year’s

The treatment and prevention of diabetes is constantly evolving. At the Canadian Centre for Research on Diabetes, we believe that participating in clinical research is an essential way to help advancements in effective diabetes care.

We are currently participating in a variety of clinical research trials for which we are seeking volunteers.

In particular, we are looking for individuals who: • Have Type 2 Diabetes and are over the age of 50 • Are taking oral anti-diabetic medications or insulin • Have had a heart attack or stroke • Have high blood pressure or high cholesterol • Are looking to lose weight Study medications and diabetes supplies will be provided to participants free of charge. If you are interested in finding out more about this clinical research study, or about our research program in general, please contact research coordinators Emily Hall or Emily Knapp at (613) 283-8582 or ehall@diabetesclinic.ca; eknapp@ diabetesclinic.ca.

Help for Big Brothers, EMC CLASSIFIEDS GET RESULTS! Big Sisters is in the bag 613-283-3182

By DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland. com

EMC News – There’s going green, then there’s getting the green.

Then there are moments when you do both.

“I’m thrilled that we have picked to be linked with such an environmental fundraiser,” said Robin Heald, executive director of Big Brothers, Big Sisters of Lanark County, of their collaboration with Foodsmiths supermarket in Perth, which has netted them $537.

This is Foodsmiths’ first collaboration with BBBS but Heald certainly hopes that it will not be the last.

“We’ve planted the seed,” said Heald. “We’ve met most of our goals already.”

She applauded Food-

smiths for hosting what she called “third party events,” which help BBBS in more ways than just financially.

“We’re thrilled when someone does the event for us and all we have to do is polish up the cheque,” said Heald, who urged any group looking to fundraise on BBBS’ behalf to contact her Smiths Falls office first just to make sure that all of the I’s have been dotted and t’s crossed.

The money was raised through Foodsmiths’ monthly BYOB (bring your own bag) program, which collected the money this past July, about 10 cents per bag, and which was formally handed over to BBBS this past Sept. 5.

“That’s a lot of customers,” joked Claire Smith, the store’s co-owner.

Smith said that the im-

portance of the organization was brought home to her when she spoke with some volunteers recently.

“I realized what a need there was in the county,” Smith said. “We like to spread (financial help) around…to help support different organizations.”

Smith called BBBS one of the “foundation groups in the area.”

He still owns the car he drove in high school

By BILL SHERK

EMC Lifestyle - Do you remember the car you drove in high school? If we publish your story, you will receive an autographed copy of my latest book, “KEEP UP IF YOU CAN: Confessions of a high school teacher.”

Steve Fox of Barrie, Ontario, still owns the car he drove in high school: “In the summer of 1980, I was 13 and dad thought we should look for a car for me. Something we could work on together. I wanted a Mustang or Camaro. We went all over Ontario, visiting used car lots and checking the classifieds (no internet then).

“In 1981, dad saw a white convertible on Bayfield Street here in Barrie. We pulled into the driveway and saw a car that seemed to go on forever: a 1969 Buick Electra 225 convertible. It wasn’t what I had hoped for but dad said: ‘Let’s go for a test drive.’

With dad driving and me riding shotgun, top down, mild night, people looking at us, air rushing by, the sound of the big 430, I started to like this car. Dad said:

‘How much money have you saved?’ I said $500 from working at the family bakery.

He said that’s a good down payment and I could have it paid off by the time I get my licence!

“Before I turned 16, dad would take me to the Georgian Mall early Sunday mornings to practise parking, backing up, and as dad would say, ‘getting my sea legs.’

I turned 16, got my licence, made my final payment to dad, and had to have money in the bank for insurance, gas, and repairs. The Buick was now mine!

“High school friends made fun of my ‘boat,’ sometimes calling it ‘Grandpa’s grocery getter.’ But we had great times with that car, driving to Wasaga Beach, the drive-in theatre, and parties in Muskoka. It never let me down except when I ran out of gas.

“Now nearly 30 years

later, I still have my first car.

Those same people that made fun of it now reminisce about the good times we had when driving it in high school. Dad always enjoyed the car and I would often come home to find his car in the driveway and the big Buick gone with him for a drive.

“We lost dad in March 2009 but every time I fire up the big old Buick, he’s right there with me, enjoying the drive.”

If the story of the car you drove in high school is published in this column, you will receive an autographed copy of Bill Sherk’s latest book “KEEP UP IF YOU CAN: Confessions of a high school teacher.”

To share your story and photos, email billtsherk@ sympatico.ca or write Bill Sherk, 25 John St., P.O. Box 255, Leamington, ON N8H 3W2.

Fun with Soils at inaugural MVFN Lecture EMC Lifestyle - The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists’ (MVFN) 20122013 public lecture series, Nature Beneath Our Feet, begins Sept. 20 with its inaugural presentation, “Lanark County Soils Fundamentals.”

You do not need to be an expert to enjoy the presentations—just possess a curiosity or appreciation for wild nature.

Cottagers, hunters, fishermen, canoeists, hikers, campers, artists and seasoned field naturalists alike will find something to interest them as we explore what lives in Lanark County and how best to protect it for future generations.

Refreshments are offered at each lecture.

The opening lecture will be presented by David Kroetsch from the Canadian Soil Information Service in Ottawa. This service publishes soils data, maps

and reports; Canadian soil science methods and standards; and maps of soils showing their properties and suitability/capability for various uses. David has taught the soils section of the Lanark Envirothon, an environmental training program for high school students, for the last 10 years. Just this summer, David was out in the field studying our county soils.

What did he learn?

Natural landscapes— typically we think of landscapes as vegetated terrain over varying topography, but soils can also be described as landscapes. David will take us beneath the surface for a tour of the county’s soil landscapes.

What would the early settlers give to be in the audience?

Soils contribute tremendously to biodiversity by providing plant and animal habitat. Did you know

ATTENTION

DEER HUNTERS! Garden Market

that the total mass of living organisms below-ground generally equals or exceeds what we see above-ground and that biodiversity is greater in the soil than it is on the surface by orders of magnitude?

A handful of grassland soil, for example, will typically support tens of thousands of different singlecelled organisms, such as bacteria, and hundreds of other species.

Our well-being depends on the nature of our soils.

For example, they provide

us with food and fibres.

They store, filter and transform nutrients, substances and water.

Raw materials They provide a source of raw materials, regulate climate, and archive geological and archaeological history.

What has new research regarding the relationships between soils and climate change, greenhouse gases, and carbon sequestration uncovered?

Soil is a natural resource.

Hike to the peak of Blueberry Mountain Fundraiser set for Sept. 30

By LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com

Photos submitted by Howard Clifford

CliffLAND is located at 502 Hills of Peace Road.

Registration is at 9:30 a.m.

The suggested donation is $10 per person or $20 per family. Guests are invited to bring a lunch and enjoy a snack provided at the top of the mountain. For further information, please contact Howard Clifford at 613-259-3412 or hclifford@xplornet.com.

EMC News - Howard Clifford (left) of the Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust Conservancy and cliffLand is presenting a certificate inducting Ian Morison into the 80 Plus Club.

He and his wife Heather are from Scotland and were visiting relatives in Brockville who knew about Blueberry Mountain and the 80 Plus Club. They had an enjoyable nature walk to the top of Blueberry Mountain, also pictured during the fall.

EMC News - The Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust Conservancy and cliffLAND has instituted the 80 Plus Club.

This is for individuals 80 years of age or older who have hiked to Blueberry Mountain (one of the Seven Wonders of Lanark County).

“We currently have inducted three members and interestingly enough one was a visitor to Canada from Scotland who was visiting friends in Brockville who knew about the club,” said Howard Clifford who is part of the land trust conservancy and owns the 1,250 acres of land that encompasses Blueberry Mountain.

“Assuming they successfully complete the hike they will be inducted at a special ceremony following the walk,” Clifford said.

Five or six more hikers will be inducted to the MMLTC 80s club at the annual fall walk on Sept. 30.

Guest speaker for the day will be Canadian naturalist, Ernest Thompson Seton.

Both MMLTC and cliffLAND think this is a creative way to demonstrate that the enjoyment of nature is beneficial and avail-

able to all ages, he added.

“The walk is about 5km and it’s at a slow and steady pace,” Clifford said. “If people over 80 can do it, it’s not a difficult walk and it’s for people of all ages.

It’s a nice hike, especially in the fall of the year.”

The land trust conservancy is hosting the Sept.

30 hike starting at 10 a.m.

From the top of Blueberry Mountain, the view is spectacular with vistas spanning over Flower Lake, and sometimes, when the day is clear, visitors can see some 30 km away.

“Sometimes you can see the tower at Calabogie,” he said.

This new 80s Club is also one of the ways the groups plan this year to develop partnerships with various health agencies to promote the relationship of wilderness to mental health.

Independent Living Workshops for youth in Perth lenge, especially where it concerns youth. They are a notoriously difficult population to engage. Through the workshops connections will be made with youth who would like to live on their own or are already living independently, to the services and resources available to them in their home community. This will help them to know what’s available to them, who provides it, and who’s eligible to receive it. The workshops are not going to end homelessness in the course of 10 weeks, but hopefully will connect some kids to the agencies and services that they are mostly likely to need living on their own, and ensure they have the most accurate information possible. This way, they can make informed decisions about moving out,

and gain an understanding for the complexity of independent living before they actually experience it.

Some of you are thinking these workshops are not for your son or daughter because they are not homeless, or likely to be.

Although the aim is to prevent youth homelessness through education and information, the workshops are free and open to all youth ages 16-24. The information and skills participants will learn are skills that are useful to many youth, those at risk of be-

We hope to see all of our members turn out and we welcome our Garden of the Month winners all of whom received free memberships for their hard work on their properties in Smiths Falls. Memberships for 2013 are now available and those who become new members are entitled to attend the balance of our 2012 meetings for free.

by Boundary Garlic Farms of B.C. Be sure to click on part two at the bottom of the article (http://www.garlicfarm.ca/ garlic-growing-pospisil.htm).

The winners of our June ‘photo contest’, “In the Pink” were: Pauline Armstrong 1st, Aline Hicks 2nd and Marcia Phillips 3rd. The theme for September is “Nature’s Bounty” and the final contest in October is “Fall Glory”. The current standings for the year are close with Anneke Phillips and Pauline Armstrong in the lead, but with two more contests to go it could be anybody’s advantage. Please ensure to submit your photos to Jane and Marcel Turpin to stay in the running.

We congratulate our 2012 bursary winner, Christy Melvin

of SFDCI. A sincere thank you letter from Christy was read at our last Executive Meeting as well as a thank you letter from the collegiate. We wish Christy much success in her pursuit of a career in Horticulture.

We will have our final flower show for the year this month.

Please check your yearbook for all of the Divisions and classes and don’t forget to consider entering your Design in Division II. Entries must be placed by 7 p.m.

Our trips this summer were well attended with a pleasurable and well hosted visit to Paul Fritz’s garden on Oak Leaf Road near Athens followed by lunch served on the patio at the Fulford Mansion in Brockville. Some members enjoyed a guided tour of the mansion and we learned about the costly efforts of the Fulford family to restore the formal gardens on the property. A number of members attended Herbfest near Almonte. Next up is a tour of Jeanne Dagley’s garden on Bachus Island at 10 a.m. followed by a visit to Pauline and Larry Armstrong’s gardens at 115 Meadow Lane just past Port Elmsley. The Armstrong’s will host a potluck lunch. A sign-up sheet will be available at the meeting so that an indication of the number of members planning to attend and dishes required can be established. This takes place on Saturday, Sept. 22.

All members are invited.

Please contact our President Lorna at 283-0549 for any information you require about your own local horticultural society.

EMC Lifestyle - This summer, Successful Transitional Avenues for Youth was fortunate to receive a grant from the Harry P. Ward Foundation, based in Ottawa, to fund the “Brighter Futures Workshops”. They are a series of independent living geared workshops for youth wanting to move out on their own. The goal of the workshops is to prevent youth homelessness through education. To start, STAY is offering these workshops for 10 weeks in Perth; a great example of a rural community that has a wealth of community organizations and services available for its residents.

Puppies need a good start EMC News - Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind is seeking loving homes for future guide and assistance dogs.

The volunteer position is called “puppy walking” but entails a lot more.

As a puppy walker, you foster a puppy in your home for 12 to 18 months.

The idea is for the pup to learn what it takes to become a “good dog” before entering formal training to become a guide dog or assistance dog to help someone in need.

You must be home most of the day or obtain permission to take the dog to work with you. You require access to a vehicle for veterinary appointments and training sessions.

All food and veterinary expenses are provided.

This is a commitment, raising and training the dog in your home, with the expectation for daily long walks in all conditions.

When the dog is ready to enter into formal training at the National Training Centre of Canadian Guide

Dogs for the Blind in Manotick, you must be prepared to give up the dog so that it may continue its journey as a guide dog or assistance dog.

Ownership of the dog is retained by Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind.

One person is responsible for the pup, but this is a great family volunteer project.

Pups are ready to be placed this fall. If the dog graduates, you get the opportunity to meet the client that your dog is matched with.

For further information on this volunteer position contact Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind at 613692-7777 or email info@ guidedogs.ca.

EMC - Your Community Newspaper

All you have to do is call Open Doors for help in time of need EMC Lifestyle - September is here and at Open Doors for Lanark Children and Youth, we are noticing that our phones are getting busy. At certain times of the year, the requests for help from families in our community are more frequent than at others. One of those peak periods is the second half of September.

We know that many of our callers will be first time callers. It can be extremely difficult to make your first call to the agency for help.

We try very hard to answer every phone call personally so you do not have to leave a message for your first contact. When you call, you will be asked to give some basic information and then, a telephone appointment will be set up with one of our Quick Response Counsellors. We will ask many questions to help flesh out your concerns, develop an initial assessment, and make recommendations regarding what will help to make things better. We use a screening tool to make sure we get a good picture of what you see as the main mental health worries you are dealing with. We will share information regarding the mental health is-

sues that you are concerned about, and make sure that you have time to ask questions about the service options we are recommending.

Often we will recommend a short course of counselling (up to four sessions) to quickly resolve your concerns. Sometimes an extended course of counseling is recommended. Through counseling, you and your child will learn why they are having difficulties and how to deal with them. As a parent,

you will probably be asked to participate in sessions with your child, support your child’s participation in services, help reinforce what your child is learning and change some of your ways of interacting.

At your first face to face meeting with us, we will get to know you a little better, and develop a plan for addressing your family’s mental health concerns.

We will share information about the benefits and

Big Brothers Big Sisters Month in Lanark County

Mentoring him could be the start of something big – like a new

community centre

Every time you volunteer or donate to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County you start something – and it could be the start of something BIG!

We believe in the value of mentoring.

Mentoring her could be the start of something big – like a rise in

literacy

Studies show that mentoring helps kids stay in school, avoid risky behaviour such as bullying, and grow up having more respect for themselves, their family, their peers and their community.

Changing young lives can change life in our communities too.

Helping children reach their full potential can lead to positive community outcomes like a reduction in poverty and unemployment as well as safer schools and neighbourhoods.

What happens when a child witnesses the actions of a caring, civic-minded adult? Studies show that, as they mature, they are more likely to want to give back to their community in similar ways. We believe in the value and values of mentoring.

Big Brothers Big Sisters.ca

We know from experience.

For 100 years Big Brothers Big Sisters has been changing the lives of children in Canada through their mentoring programs. Serving as role models, mentors teach by example the importance of giving back and staying in school. Witnessing a child become a more confident, concerned, and motivated young person is a remarkable thing. For the Big and the Little, the mentoring experience becomes a life changing relationship built on friendship, trust and empowerment.

With each video, expect to see trail highlights, equipment reviews, gear tips... and a heartfelt, candid sharing of all his trials, bumps and bruises.

“I am very excited about

this man’s venture,” said Robert Groves, the President of the Rideau Trail Association.

“I know the Rideau Trail has been on his bucket list for a long time...I’m very much looking forward to following his ‘OktoberQuest’ online.”

The Rideau Trail was formed in 1971 and forms a continuous trail from Kingston to Ottawa with many side trails totalling over 400 km. It

is preserved and maintained by the non profit Rideau Trail Association.

The trail itself crosses terrain ranging from placid farmland to the rugged Canadian shield. The continuity of the trail is made possible by the generous permission of both private and public landowners.

EMC Events - This October Bruce Watts will be hiking the complete Rideau Trail from Kingston to Ottawa. It’s rare for anybody to complete this journey in one continuous trip...however no one has ever shared the adventure on the internet! He is calling the trek...”OktoberQuest”.

Bruce is a retired Ottawa police officer with a passion for the great outdoors. So much in fact that, that after he turned in his badge, he started www.campology.ca... an online camping magazine.

Thirty years in policing had its personal challenges, and camping was his therapy.

“I found escaping to the backwoods was a great way to handle the stress of the job,” relates Bruce. “It was my way of managing...mother nature gives me both healthy physical challenges and peace of mine.”

The complete trail has been on Bruce’s wish list for 30 years...however it was his diagnosis of melanoma skin cancer a month ago that pushed him to action. “There is no time like the present...in fact we have no guarantee of a future.”

So with a positive attitude, and heaps of skill and experience, a plan was developed and OktoberQuest was born.

This adventure will be like no other. He expects to hike 20-30 kilometres per day with everything he needs in his

EMC Events – Santa has made an early visit to Smiths Falls from the North Pole.

To benefit LAWS, Sept.

16, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., pet pics with Santa will take place at ZenDragon Martial Arts & Fitness, Smiths Falls. Come have your pets’ (dogs, cats, goldfish and even reptiles are invited) picture taken by a professional photographer with Santa and the World’s Largest Elf. Donations will be accepted per photo session. Folks are asked to bring their own camera as well.

Santa was recently contacted by a cat at the Lanark Animal Welfare Society. The feline had a letter made up by Kate Moodie of SendOut Cards, to say the shelter was in financial trouble and asking for Santa’s help, explained John Maloney from The Rideau Winery. The Rideau Winery, Smiths Falls and Coach Brian Paquette, ZenDragon are sponsoring this fundraising event. Also helping are Cynthia Wilkinson and Kyle Normandin and of course Moodie.

Santa and the World’s Largest Elf have been filming a series of short videos, which are appearing on The Rideau Winery Facebook page and will be on YouTube as well. Follow Santa and his cohort on their journey to help LAWS. The day of the event, Santa will be arriving on his Harley, folks are asked to bring their own cameras, and for a donation, have their photograph taken with Santa. Moodie will also be present to take photographs if needed. She will also show folks how they can easily take those photographs and incorporate them into cards for the holidays.

A barbecue will round out the day, and if there is a need the event will run past 1 p.m. Maloney noted no one will be rushed out, all

current financial situation does not change.

With monthly operating expenses of $80,000 per month and facing an average of $50,000 in losses every month the shelter may have no choice come the end of the year, said Judy Meyers, former president of the shelter’s board

Therapeutic riding program looking for volunteers EMC News - The Lanark County Therapeutic Riding Program offers specialized riding lessons to children and adults with physical and/or developmental disabilities throughout Lanark County.

The Riding Program is in its 26th year of providing this beneficial therapy, rehabilitation and recreation where horses are the helping partners!

The Fall riding season is just beginning and the program is looking for volunteers to assist with the riding lessons in both Perth at Cedar Rock Farm and in Almonte at Willaway Farm on Ramsay Concession #12.

If you are interested in being with enthusiastic riders, out in the fresh air and ready for a little exercise, come out and see what it is all about at a lesson that is in progress. Please call the number below for times and locations. No experience with horses is necessary.

GIVE SOMEONE

A

For people who have had experience with horses, techniques for leading a horse with a disabled rider on board will be explained.

Safety is the main concern for all who are involved in the riding program so it is important that volunteers learn how to be comfortable around the horses which comes with time and experience. If you are interested, volunteers are also given the opportunity to learn how to groom the horses and tack up to prepare the horses for the lesson.

The lessons run in the mornings and after school during the week.

This is a wonderful chance to learn some new skills and be involved in a therapy and recreation that provides physical benefits as well as social, emotional and psychological gains.

Some volunteers come out for one hour and others stay for the whole morning, the choice is left up to the individual.

If you would like more information or to register as a volunteer please call 613-257-7121, ext. #236.

Toast 2 tbsp. butter or margarine 2 tbsp. flour 2 cups milk 1/2 tsp. butter or margarine 1/2 cup frozen peas 1/2 medium onion, chopped 2 cans (213 gm) salmon, drained salt, pepper to taste Use a microwave-safe bowl or a measuring cup that holds 4 cups.

In the bowl, melt 2 tbsp. butter or margarine on High for 40 to 50 seconds. Stir in the flour until it forms a smooth paste. There’s no need to cook this mixture.

Add the milk all at once, and stir well. Microwave on High, uncovered, for 4 to 5 minutes. During this time, stir the sauce once every minute, scraping around the bottom of the bowl to mix in all the flour paste.

When the sauce is slightly thickened, cook it 1 to 2 minutes longer on High.

This time, stir the sauce every 30 seconds to prevent lumps from forming and the sauce from boiling over.

The sauce is done when it’s thickened and bubbly.

If you’re going to use the sauce for another dish, stop reading now.

If you’re making creamed salmon on toast, place the 1/2 tsp. butter, frozen peas and onion in a small microwave-safe dish.

Cover and cook on High for 2 minutes.

Stir the onion mixture and the salmon into the white sauce. Cook on High for 1 to 2 minutes longer, stirring every 30 seconds, to heat the salmon.

To serve, spoon over toast. Use 1 or 2 pieces of toast per person.

EMC Lifestyle - Of all the millions of recipes that exist in cookbooks, there’s one which is found more often than any other. It appears in cookbooks published around the world - from Eastern Ontario to France to Australia. You probably have it in at least one of the cookbooks in your kitchen right now.

The recipe is for a “Basic White Sauce”, and it’s made with three ingredients - butter, flour and milk.

In France, they call it “one of the great sauces”, but they also have another name for it --the “sauce mere”, or “mother sauce”.

And that’s probably the best name for this sauce because it’s the starting point for so many different recipes.

It’s the key ingredient for dishes ranging from soups to souffles, from scalloped potatoes to Coquilles SaintJacques. It can be flavoured with cheese, herbs, mustard or wine, and served over vegetables, meat, poultry or fish.

Although the basic white sauce has been used in both home and professional kitchens for years, it became a lot simpler to make with the introduction of the microwave oven. Now, the sauce is not only quick to prepare, but clean-up is a lot easier too, as you’ll know if you ever scrubbed burned milk off the bottom of a pot.

The recipe that follows is for creamed salmon on toast, a convenient and quick supper dish. It starts with a medium white sauce, and you can use this basic sauce recipe for any other dish that calls for it.

The microwave technique for cooking it is explained step-by-step.

EMC News - Grade 10 and 11 history students at Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute are asking the community to help them give life to the fallen soldiers on the Second World War cenotaph as the Lest We Forget Program delves into the local stories beyond the Berlin Beast.

The interactive research project kicked off the first week of school this month when students were given a military record of a real soldier whose name is on the town’s cenotaph.

“These haven’t been opened in 70 some years,” remarked Isaac Chapman, Grade 11 student.

Throughout this term the students-turned-investigators will be tasked with piecing together the last 24 hours of each of the 27 fallen soldiers’ lives and write a report on their findings, but they need the community’s help to do it.

“The voice that’s missing right now is the community’s voice,” said history teacher,

Blake Seward. “The amount of information that the community had for the Great War was astronomical.”

The students are hoping anyone with information on a fallen Second World War soldier will come forward to share their stories and documents that can be scanned or photographed without leaving their owner’s possession.

The invaluable partnership the Lest We Forget project is hoping to rekindle with the community was aptly illustrated by an update from student, Slade Stoodley this week whose soldier, John Raymond Warren once lived at 4 Elm St. in Smiths Falls.

Over the weekend, Stoodley walked over to the house for a picture of its façade. When he knocked on the door for permission to use it in his research essay Stoodley discovered the owner was a former co-worker of his mother’s with a unique connection to the late soldier.

“Her husband was a very good friend of John’s,” Stoodley explained.

He hopes the Smiths Falls

resident will be able to provide more details on the local war hero and perhaps a photo.

What Stoodley does know is John Warren died at age 22 from terminal meningitis.

“He was actually taken prisoner, he was disarmed and he was executed.”

CARLIN HENNEBERRY SFDCI STUDENT

He discovered the man went to war when it was determined his twin was too sick to serve.

“He blamed the army for John’s death,” Stoodley said of the surviving twin.

Another soldier, William Faughnan died May 10, 1945 from medical causes as well.

His file states his death was from accidental poisoning in a military hospital in Brockville, which could be diabetes or the result of human error.

“My mom and I both have a hunch that maybe he (was accidentally overdosed) and that is probably what ended

his life,” added Josh Warren, the Grade 10 student charged with this story. “I’m kind of sitting on top of a mystery.”

Warren hopes one of Faughnan’s five sisters or the brother will come forward to help fill in the gaps.

SS murder One of the most sensational tales to be found in the files so far is the murder of George Vincent Gill, 28 at the hands of the German SS. Research Kaitlyn Hughes, Grade 10 has uncovered so far reveals the likely murderer – an SS officer by the name of Kurt Meyer (aka Pazermeyer).

“He got it (nickname) because he’s a prankster,” Hughes explains.

This intriguing file and the murder of Gill on June 7, 1944 is also the responsibility of Carlin Henneberry. She’s been able to find out information from that day when Gill didn’t return to his unit and was classified as missing.

“He was actually taken prisoner, he was disarmed See VETS page SF4

EMC News - The individual who will fill the seat of Wayne Brown, outgoing Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) /treasurer will be announced during next Monday’s regular council session, the mayor confirmed.

A press release was sent out following a special Committee of the Whole session held in camera Friday, Sept.

7 that announced the longtime town staffer’s departure effective immediately.

“He just felt it was his time,” said mayor Staples.

“He was planning to retire next year anyway.”

Throughout his 12-year career Brown assisted councils of the day on a number of high priority projects including the building of the new water treatment plant, the new arena and the high school. The Smiths Falls resident was also an important cog during the northern Ontario evacuees effort that took place last year.

“He’s provided great leadership and direction,” the mayor said.

Brown’s announced retirement comes after a four-week vacation period. He was contacted by the paper for comment but asked to reserve his statement for some time in the future.

The Sept. 17 announcement of interim CAO is the first step towards filling this position in town. The mayor said the town planned to follow its hiring policy and advertise the vacancy in short order. Before then council members have some decisions to make on the future of the position, including whether they will recruit someone to perform both the CAO and treasurer roles as Brown did. “That will all be part of council’s discussions to move forward,” the mayor said.

WHY PROTECT WITH KROWN? An In-Depth Interview with Freeman Young, President of Krown What causes rust on vehicles? Metal is trying to return to its natural state which is a form of oxide, such as iron oxide. Moisture is the key to corrosion as it freely gives up its oxygen electrons, transforming steel into iron oxide.

How is Krown different from wax or tar based methods? Krown is an active product that does not dry out but continues repelling moisture and keeping it away from the metal. The ability of Krown to remain active is what makes it a superior product especially in areas like seams and spot-welds.

Will Krowning my vehicle void my manufactures warranty? The Krown product will not harm a vehicle in any way and therefore will not void the manufacturer’s warranty. We spray Krown on thousands of new vehicles every year to give them the proper protection they need against corrosion.

How does the krown process work? Krown is sprayed in a “mist” form inside body panels and along the underside of the vehicle. It then attaches itself to the metal surfaces, creating an active barrier, that moves where moisture does and continually repels it, keeping it away from the metal. It also helps to keep moisture away from electrical connections, and lubricates moving parts like window winders,linkages and hinges.

Freeman Young, President of Krown

Why does the product drip? I’m not sure I like “dripping” As mentioned the Krown product is active and has the ability to move. To properly repel moisture, the Krown product must be thin enough to get into the same areas that moisture does. As it performs its job of pushing out moisture, some of the Krown product does drip for a short time after the original application. However, Krown is environmentally-friendly and will not harm the driveway or road it drips on. In addition, any stains on the driveway will disappear on their own in a week or two.

These economic times are tight, money is scarce, why should I get my vehicle done annually? Research studies that have been performed on the extension of a vehicle’s lifecycle and the financial impact therein have shown that a savings of $2500 per year is easily attainable for those that keep their vehicles properly maintained and therefore keep them longer. Delaying the purchase of a new car and keeping your old one longer can have a tremendous, positive impact on a person’s finances.

Should I get my vehicle Krowned even if I don’t drive in the winter? Rust never sleeps and Canadian vehicles are exposed to road salt and moisture every time they are driven. Therefore the best form or protection is an annual Krown treatment. I’ve heard that new vehicles have so much galvanized steel that rust proofing is not necessary. Galvanized steel is a real upgrade in the manufacture of vehicles. However, the newest de-icing chemicals that have been introduced to our roads over the past few years are more corrosive than anything in the past. Vehicles are starting to corrode the moment they come off the new car lot so rust proofing is still an extremely important part of proper vehicle maintenance.

Should I Krown my vehicle even if it’s leased. Having your vehicle treated will reduce your maintenance costs during your lease period and additionally if you decide to keep it at the end of the lease you will have peace of mind knowing that its body will continue to be in good shape because of your visits to Krown.

I do so many kilometres per year, is it still worth it to krown my vehicle? Yes, more kilometres usually means more maintenance repairs and even more exposure to the corrosive chemicals on our roads. These vehicles actually benefit from Krown even more.

How is krowning my vehicle going to save me money, now and in the long run? Reduced maintenance costs, higher resale value, less body repairs, and the ability to delay the purchase of a new vehicle all contribute to saving you money. Many maintenance issues are caused by moisture getting into electrical parts and connections or by moving parts seizing up.

Krown’s unique product helps to prevent these costly issues, saving money for the driver.

My neighbour bought a new vehicle and the dealer was really pushing for them to buy “Electronic Rust Proofing” does that work? Also, what about dealer undercoating packages? Electronic Rust Control is still sold and has been for many years. Our experience in the car industry indicates that these electronic modules have no positive effect on protecting a vehicle from corrosion. We have seen many rusty vehicles that are supposedly protected by electronic rust control even the boxes themselves and their wires corroded right off. Many experts have stated that this type of technology cannot work on cars in the real world and proof of this can be seen all over the country. As far as undercoating packages, as mentioned before many of these products actually accelerate corrosion by sealing in moisture.

I own a company and we have several fleet vehicles, how can Krowning effect our bottom line and save our vehicles? If you own a fleet and you have your vehicles protected with Krown, expect to save $6 in maintenance costs for every dollar spent on Krown. “Krowning” your fleet is the best money you will spend as it will significantly reduce maintenance costs, reduce fleet downtime, vehicle breakdowns and of course will add years to the life of your vehicles.

What is Krowns relationship ship with CAA and APA? Krown is proud to be the only rust control product and service in Ontario recommended by CAA and the APA (Automobile Protection Association).

My vehicle has already started to show signs of rust, is it too late to get on the Krown program? Krown has the ability to slow down the corrosion that has already started on a vehicle by removing moisture from the rusty metal and keeping it away.

Tell us about the Krown warranty. Krown’s new car corrosion warranty stays into effect as long as a vehicle is brought back and retreated every year. This warranty states that Krown will repair or replace rusted body panels up to the full value of the vehicle. The used warranty applies to vehicles that are up to 3 years old and offers the same terms for a period of 5 years.

What do you think about those 2 handsome guys at the Smiths Falls Krown location? Clifford and Dan are both kind, friendly, hard-working gentlemen that put their customers first and do an excellent job. They also offer added value and special promotions at various times of year. Right now they are offering $15 off and a free aerosol/bottle of Krown cleaning product.

Clifford at Krown told us, “It’s evident; more and more people realize the importance of protecting their vehicles, and saving money on repairs now and in the future.

Kaitlyn Hughes, Grade 10 stares into the face of Kurt Meyer, an SS officer. He is believed to have murdered 28 year-old George Vincent Gill who lived between Smiths Falls and Brockville. The Lest We Forget project has been relaunched at SFDCI with a focus on Second World War heroes. Anyone with information on the 27 names on the town’s cenotaph is asked to call the school.

and he was executed,” Henneberry said.

She would love to receive a full copy of Meyer’s trial as well as a photo of Gill. Henneberry admits history isn’t a subject she often enjoys, but this term she’s making an exception.

“It’s kind of interesting and depressing,” Henneberry said of the Lest We Forget task.

“It’s just interesting to listen to everybody’s story.”

Stories like that of Glen Benson Loney whose plane crashed in Germany or Donald James Vens Dawson who was also a pilot and died during a bombing attempt on the port city of Wilhelmshaven, Germany. There’s also the story of Joe Gallipeau who died when he was 22 years old during an anti-submarine patrol in the Atlantic.

“His body washed ashore” in Sweden, said Matt Falkner, Grade 10.

Seward is excited to bring Lest We Forget back to SFDCI and expose students to the joys of history. From his

experience this is most successfully done by taking the chronological element out of history and use the soldier files to touch on a variety of history topics, including women’s rights, international law and morality.

“It creates that context,” Seward said.

The project also provides an opportunity for students to add colour to the last world war and the lives of those it affected.

“I’m hoping to learn more about (the Second World War) and learn more about what my great grandfather went through,” Stoodley said.

His great grandfather doesn’t like to talk about his time at war. The only person who was able to get him to open up about the experience was Stoodley’s uncle who wrote a report on the interview for school. Once it was done Stoodley’s uncle was made to burn it.

Museum exhibit Anyone who has information or artifacts to share on any

of the 27 Second World War heroes can contact Seward at the high school (613-2830288) or visit Heritage House Museum (Old Slys Road) where there is a secure catalogue system for loans.

The research essays being compiled by Grade 10 and 11 students at SFDCI will have a public life when they are complete.

Sarah Rathwell, archival project coordinator at Heritage House Museum said staff is working with the students to develop a veterans’ exhibit.

The exhibit will launch Sept.

17 with three Great War soldiers who were chronicled in a previous Lest We Forget project.

“It gives an intimate look at their personal account of war,” Rathwell said.

As this year’s students continue their work on Second World War soldiers the museum’s exhibit will transform to include this new work until a full exhibit is launched early in 2013.

“It’s going to kind of evolve with them,” Rathwell said.

Students have different views on their return to school

By RAVEN SALTER

RED & WHITE Knowing itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your final year to experience all these great things can be hard though and knowing what to do after high school is a tough decision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To be honest, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to miss this school! Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not ready to leave and join the real world,â&#x20AC;? says Marybeth Desjardine, Grade 12. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think college is a huge step in someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. It shows youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re growing up,

Model review Concerns around the Ontario Ministry of Healthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s freeze on accepting new physicians for certain health team models isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expected to impact the local clinic, according to Linda Bisonette, interim president/ CAO of the Perth & Smiths Falls District Hospital who notes the freeze is across the entire province. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This should not hurt our chances for recruitment,â&#x20AC;? Bisonette said.

The hiring freeze only impacts new hires, however Michael Alexander of the South East Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) said the ministry is now accepting half of its regular physician application requests (25 per month) as of last Friday, Sept. 7.

Assessment on the health care model is ongoing with no date set as to when it will be complete. Doctors recruited for the Smiths Falls clinic will be making application to the ministry under the Comprehensive Care Model as independent doctors until this review is complete.

EMC News - Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s that time of the year again... back to school! Students say goodbye to the summer and hello to old friends, tests, projects, and lots of homework. Some students enjoy it and some simply canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to get it done with!

This year the new Grade 9 students had a lot to adjust to. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I liked my first day. Yeah, it was confusing finding classes, but it was good overall,â&#x20AC;? said Jesse Jordan, a Grade 9 student.

This year the schedule shifts each week. It starts off simply with periods 1, 2, 3, and 4 in that order. The following week the schedule is then reversed. For week three, the schedule is 2, 1, 4, 3, and for the final week of the month, it is 3, 4, 1, 2. The cycle starts over the following week.

To add on to that, Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s schedule has second period for an extra hour. All of this can be very overwhelming for new students. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really dislike it! Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be so confusing remembering which class I have. I wish they hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t switched it up,â&#x20AC;? said Natalie Doef, Grade 12.

On the brighter side, students finally got to see old friends, look forward to making many new ones, and meeting many new teachers. Many great memories will be made this year at the high school.

We also have many sports and clubs to look forward to joining such as football, basketball, volleyball, badminton, track, cheerleading, the environmental club, the glee club, the improv. team and so many more. The list is endless.

EMC News - Demolition of the exterior side wall at Cornelia Court has begun as part of the planned turn-key clinic project that is now expected to open in January or February 2013. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just starting demolition,â&#x20AC;? said Chris Saumure, of Guy Saumure & Sons Construction. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure if weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll finish the stucco this year or wait until spring.â&#x20AC;?

The experienced local builder is planning to first build and complete the 3,000-square foot expansion as phase one of the overall project. Once this is done the existing four doctors will be moving their practice to the new wing while interior renovations begin in the existing space. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll renovate the interior in two different phases,â&#x20AC;? Saumure said.

The goal is to allow the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s physicians to continue practicing with minimal interference from the construction work that is taking place around them.

taking blueprints of the finished facility on the road to a series of physician recruitment shows.

The tour begins in Ottawa Oct. 1 followed by Kingston the next day, McMaster Oct. 3 and Toronto on Oct. 5.

Cheetham will be doubling back to Ottawa on Nov. 2 to speak with prospective medical graduates at the University of Ottawa. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives us an opportunity to speak to all (the doctors) that are coming out,â&#x20AC;?

Cheetham said.

This aggressive schedule is something Cheetham has gotten to know well since starting with the town a couple of years ago. In that time he estimates heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spoken with 135 doctors during which time he would field many recurring questions on quality of life and the facilities available in town for new start-ups.

Cheetham says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s optimistic his experience at the upcoming shows will be very busy when he has blueprints of the clinic in hand.

During last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ottawa stopover the town representative noticed a distinct change in their ability to attract interested doctors to their table, which he credits to the prospect of a turn-key clinic. He recalls the difference in the interest Smiths Falls was able

TOWN COUNCIL TOWN COUNCIL INBRIEF BRIEF EMC News - The following information came from the Monday, Sept. 10 regular Committee of the Whole meeting.

2012 budget items cut In an effort to trim nearly $400,000 from their current budget Smiths Falls approved the deferment of roughly $232,000. In addition to this, other items such as a truck trailer were deferred. Items to survive the cut include the welcome centre beside the former barn and exterior work on Heritage House Museum. Mayor Dennis Staples noted the town is still waiting for their OMPF reconciliation for 2010 and recently received $25,000 from administrative fees billed during the northern Ontario evacuees visit.

Fire Hall debate continues Councillors have asked for the Chief Building Official to be present at their next discussion regarding the future of the Smiths Falls fire hall. At issue is exactly what needs to be done to meet post disaster status should a renovation of the existing facility take place. Fire Chief Joel Gorman said the facility had an inspection last Thursday where the word wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t good. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It would be very difficult if not impossible to bring it up to that standard,â&#x20AC;? the chief said.

The trucks must be indoors before frost this year.

Town acquires museum assets Councillors approved town staff to move items from the former Rideau Canal Museum gift shop to the Heritage House Museum for sale in an effort to retire an outstanding $2,800 bill on the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s books. The town has also received show cases and struck an agreement with Parks Canada to keep the remaining assets so long as they are on display. If they close down the historic assets are to be returned to the town. Bob Cheetham, director of economic development is also working on an agreement with the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority (RVCA) to use their silverside Collection (previously on loan to the canal museum).

Parks Canada agreement Councillors asked town staff to come back with a proposed fee increase for Victoria Park following a $4,800 annual increase in their land usage agreement with Parks Canada. The long-time agreement has just recently been changed from a flat $500 fee for land use to five per cent of gross revenue, which would be $4,800 based on last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s numbers. The town hopes to recoup some of these costs in fees.

EMC Lifestyle - Garden of the Month for September is at the Heritage House Museum on Old Slyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Road. The lovely, eye-pleasing garden has been planned and maintained by Kaitlyn Webster and a team of summer students and volunteers.

In the photo from left to right is Sarah Rathwell, Kaitlyn Webster and Carol Miller (curator). For the October Garden of the Month send nominations to the Smiths Falls Horticultural Society at 613-283-0549.

Source water planning By monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end the town will receive an estimate on a five-year service proposal from the RVCA to perform the source water inspection service. This information will be contrasted with superintendent of water and wastewater services Ted Joyntâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendation to cover this off using himself as the Risk Management Official and Sarah Cooke as the alternate.

Both would be risk management inspectors tasked with negotiating with 33 land owners identified as posing a potential threat to town drinking water. Town staff plan to take the free training offered by the ministry regardless. The townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Source Water Protection Plan was submitted Aug. 17, 2012 and could be approved by next summer. At that time the town will have five years to implement.

Looking Back 100 YEARS AGO – SEPTEMBER 10, 1912 Mr. Norman R. Smith of Perth representing Mr. Robert Trench of Teeswater, was in town on Friday prospecting for a new skating rink. He met a few citizens in the town hall Friday evening and talked over the project with them. He represented that Mr. Trench already owned rinks in several towns and thought of building one here. He was given every encouragement and was asked to include a curling rink also. It is expected that Mr. Trench will come here at an early date to look over the ground.

Mrs. W. H. Frost is now the owner of one of the handsomest automobiles ever seen in Smiths Falls and a feature which makes it doubly valuable in her eyes is the fact that it is a birthday gift from her three sons Burton, Theodore and George. The car is an Oldsmobile with all the newest features in automobiles. It is 90 horse power with wheels 43 inches high and as may be imagined is capable of great speed. In color it is golden brown. It arrived Friday night and its appearance on the street excited much interest.

50 YEARS AGO – SEPTEMBER 13, 1962 J.A. Moir at 87 years of age is one of Smiths Falls oldest and most active drivers. Mr. Moir estimates that he has driven close to 3, 000 miles during 1962.

Ernie Rodgers, 30 Smiths Falls avenue, will be able to start work on a new home he and his wife have planned for some years. The reason - Mr. Rodgers won $2, 000 last Saturday night in the final 300 Club draw held at Hanley Hall, under the sponsorship of the local RCAF Association Wing.

The smoothly-running process that Town Council members had hoped would lead to the speedy re-zoning of a parcel of land on Lombard Street at Abbott Street, ground to a sudden halt on Tuesday when seven residents of the area threw a wrench in the works. A petition has been received by the town registering an objection to the development of a garage, now under construction on the site, owned by J.C. Cameron.

25 YEARS AGO – SEPTEMBER 16, 1987 Chocolate and nuts have always gone together well and soon they will both be processed in town.

The Planters Peanuts division of Hershey Canada Inc. announced Friday it is shutting down its Toronto operation and building a new nut-processing plant behind the chocolate factory on Hershey Drive.

It was all over so quickly. The big Liberal tide that painted Ontario red last week swelled so fast and so powerfully that the only question left to ask just an hour after the polls closed was who among the local Tories would survive. Doug Wiseman and Bob Runciman, that’s who.

Canadian Pacific Railways workers spent most of the day Tuesday at the site of their second derailment in less than five months. CPR officials were on site just east of Running Avenue shortly after 6 a.m. along with seven full-time members of the Smiths Falls Fire Department.

10 YEARS AGO –SEPTEMBER 11, 2002 As the world looks back today on the tragedies of one year ago, two Smiths Falls police officers returned to the scene now permanently etched into their minds.

This past weekend, Sgt. Mark MacGillivray and Const. Tom Blanchard took part in remembrance ceremonies in New York City. There they met with many of the police and other emergency personnel the pair worked alongside 12 months earlier during rescue operations at Ground Zero.

After a summer of anticipation, it is expected the library will open its doors to the public around Sept.

28. Patrons will be delighted when the 1,250 boxes and 35,000 volumes of books will be put back on the shelves in the newly restored library. This week the move back into the library has started slowly but surely.

Rural services are essential EMC Editorial - There’s a plug that’s been pulled and the swirling waters seem to be taking out every rural social service in sight.

This has been a tough year for professionals tasked with keeping our most fragile citizens safe. First Lanark Animal Welfare Society (LAWS) announced it was in threat of closure and this week Lanark County Interval House has announced a similar situation.

Where are our taxes going at the federal and provincial level? When abused women and children are being put on

For the Record STACEY ROY a waiting list and told to hang tight in a violent situation but Canada is still making good on its international aid something is amiss.

I am proud to say I support World Vision and Plan Canada, but if I was supporting both those worthy organizations while my family had no food

I would be re-organizing my priorities rather quickly. This is where Canada finds itself today. There is simply no time for debate here. Every Canadian citizen has a right to go to bed tonight and not be afraid that they won’t wake up the next day. To allow any less is shameful and does not meet the Charter of Rights and Freedoms in my mind.

Providing social services such as these shelters is just as important as the housing corporation - it is a promise we as a country are making to each other that no one, regardless

of hard times, will have to face hopelessness if they are willing to accept help.

I know times are tough for all governments to balance their books, but that’s exactly when these services are most needed. In fact, I think the funding should be enhanced to support these organizations and fund proactive efforts to stop violence and control the population of unwanted pets.

It’s time for rural residents to raise their voices. Call MPP Randy Hillier at 613-267-8239 and ask for consistent funding for these programs.

Letters to the Editor

Traffic laws a safety issue: reader DEAR EDITOR: I feel compelled to respond to Mr. Proulx’s letter of Sept.

6, 2012 regarding the “unfairness” of the traffic ticket his wife received. I also drove down Jasper Ave. on that particular afternoon and noting the green arrow indicating that a left turn was not allowed at that time, proceeded to go straight through. I also noted that several drivers ignored the signal and continued to make the turn as always. Obviously, many drivers are not aware of the meaning of a green arrow indicating direction of permissible traffic. As for this being a tourist trap - what a silly thing to say. Do you people actually believe that the police officers recognize immediately when a car is being driven by an “unsuspecting” tourist rather than a local driver and therefore they pounce and hand out tickets? If this is the case my hat is off to them in admiration for the tremendous memory they must

have. As for the recommendation for out-of-towners to bypass Smiths Falls - by all means give us a miss if not obeying things like speed limits or traffic signals is a requirement for your visit.

Those are our children, seniors and pets that are out there and See SAFETY page SF9

Traffic tickets should be canceled DEAR EDITOR: The recent letter from Mr. Proulx, concerning his traffic ticket, highlights an interesting situation. Discretion is a very powerful option for anyone involved in law enforcement. It is apparent that it should have come into play with regard to Mr. Proulx and the other unfortunate individuals who were caught breaking the letter of the law.

Smiths Falls youth need to be commended DEAR EDITOR: The purpose of this email is to pay tribute to three of Smiths Falls’ youngest ambassadors.

My partner and I are avid boaters and have enjoyed every weekend and the Rideau this season, as always.

On Labour Day weekend we enjoyed cruising to Kars to visit friends, which was my first trip from Smiths Falls in that direction on the canal system.

Our return cruise on Labour Day Monday was spectacular, but the icing on the cake was our arrival in Smiths Falls about 3 p.m. I was a bit tired after spending five hours going through several locks on the bow in the sun.

Just as we were about to enter the combined locks, I stood up as usual, with the bow line in my hand ready to catch the lock cable.

I smiled at three young people who were on the cement wall at the entrance. I believe the youngest boy was about seven and the older boy and girl were about 12.

The youngest smiled and called to me “Welcome to Smiths Falls!” and the older boy added, “I hope you enjoy your stay.”

I returned their greeting with, “Thank you very much -

and we certainly will.”

When we were in the lock, we recounted the story to the boaters behind us. The woman on board said the kids greeted them with a salute as their boat passed by the lock entrance.

I feel this story bears recognition. Although I have only been boating for three years, I have not experienced such a warm greeting - and the fact that it was offered by children, unrehearsed and unplanned, made it even more memorable.

I was overwhelmed. I have no idea who these kids are, but they are to be commended for their warm, polite greeting to

your boating tourists.

I would be even more pleased if they were sought out

and presented with some form of recognition by the Town of Smiths Falls, as this was an ad-

Community thanked for supporting Andrewsville Bridge DEAR EDITOR: The Friends of Andrewsville Bridge wants to extend heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported the cause to re-open and maintain the Andrewsville Bridge.

sense.

According to the circumstances involved in this incident, Mr. Proulx and others were ticketed for making an illegal turn contrary to the direction indicated by the green arrow.

The implication here is that one can only proceed in the direction of the arrow. I therefore understand that this also means that one cannot make a right hand turn at the corner of Lombard and Abbott if the direction arrow points straight ahead. Think of the havoc that this will cause if someone who wishes to make a right turn at that intersection, sits at the green arrow, refusing to make the right turn for fear of receiving a $110 ticket.

Traffic is going to back up, horns will honk and drivers will be extremely ticked off.

Confusion will reign.

Smiths Falls Police Service, do the right thing and cancel the tickets.

Smiths Falls youth learn business skills on the job sroy@perfprint.ca

EMC Business - In the case of Siloki Laser Tag in Smiths Falls the inspiration behind the venture is all in their name.

The small business was named using the first two letters of the Peskett family children (Sierra, Logan and Kira) and appropriately so considering the three children are on the board of directors in the new business. Siloki was born in November 2011 when the family incorporated the business and began working with their children to develop a logo and name with an eye of giving their children the skills needed to create their own opportunities in the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What a great way to learn how to operate your own business,â&#x20AC;? the father, Richard said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fail by reading a book, but you also canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t succeed by reading a book.â&#x20AC;?

The initial idea came about two years ago this April when their son, Logan was celebrating his ninth birthday and asked his parents for a laser tag party. The Pesketts complied but had to drive into Kingston with all the party guests to do so, which brought about the question â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;why isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there something closerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;?

The Pesketts are pleased to answer this question with

The Peskett family of Smiths Falls is taking entrepreneurial education to a new level with their three children. The family has opened Siloki Laser Tag and has named their three children as board members of the new business.

Siloki Laser Tag. The businessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; first dry run occurred in April this year when Loganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s birthday party guests became their first customers and the children had their first chance to talk about the new business venture. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They believed me because I invited them to my party,â&#x20AC;? Logan added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just said I had my own laser tag company.â&#x20AC;?

The reaction from Sierraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teenaged friends was more energetic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were kind of psyched about it,â&#x20AC;? she said.

When Richard and his

wife, Heidi discussed starting the business, part of the appeal was ensuring their children would have a guaranteed summer and part-time job through school.

Their work began long before the first party this past April. All three Peskett children were consulted when it came to selecting the name, creating the Celtic logo and developing the website (www. siloki.webs.com). â&#x20AC;&#x153;Essentially, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been selling my services to my kids,â&#x20AC;?

Richard said.

The children were shown a variety of designs with the

final design winning out with a clear majority. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I found it was very clear and the colours were nice and sharp,â&#x20AC;? remarked 13-year old, Sierra.

This is the first business start up for everyone, though Richard has some independent work experience. As the oldest child, Sierra has been working with her father on the incorporation process and the purchase of their new equipment from Europe where she learned about import and export and the rules of Free Trade. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a nice learning pro-

cess for both of us,â&#x20AC;? Richard said.

Sierra also recently took part in a leadership camp where she learned a variety of skills including developing age appropriate activities.

Each child has pitched in the business thus far. When hired Sierra helps to set up, prepare the equipment and brief guests on the rules while Logan and Kira manage the play zone area and help those uncertain about the facility find their comfort level. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very good about taking them in and giving them a tour around,â&#x20AC;? Heidi said of Kira.

This fall Siloki is focusing on offering their services to all of Lanark County for birthdays and special events.

The laser tag service can go where the party is in your own backyard or welcome a party to 94 Cornelia Street West, Smiths Falls where parties are

available for booking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The support of the community has been amazing,â&#x20AC;?

Richard said, adding a special thanks to the Sensei Dave McNamara of the Smiths Falls Japan Karate Association for the use of their facility. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very grateful to him for that.â&#x20AC;?

Bookings are coming in fast and furious with requests already being received for next summer.

An average party consists of between six to 12 children (minimum age of five-years old). Over a two-hour period there is a 90-minute game with two 15-minute breaks for presents and cake.

The Pesketts are operating Siloki Laser Tag as a parttime business at this point, but if things continue to grow they would consider opening a permanent home in Smiths Falls.

Alcohol cessation program takes new approach in treatment sroy@perfprint.ca

EMC Business - Area occupational hypnotist, Trevour Strudwick doesn’t see alcoholism as a disease - he sees it as a coping method that has run its course, and when that happens his techniques of hypnotic suggestion come in.

The area practitioner believes he is the first to bring together the series of healing techniques he offers in his workshops to support individuals in their desire to change their lives and heal from what is keeping them down. In his alcohol cessation program, that will be launched in Perth and Smiths Falls early next month, Strudwick uses his life coaching skills, hypnosis and emotional freedom techniques (pressure points pushed in sequence) to guide his clients to a new way of coping that sets aside alcohol.

“I teach you how to go into hypnosis in class,” Strudwick said. “It’s a matter of really deep relaxation; that’s it.”

The program runs once a week for four weeks beginning Oct. 2 in Smiths Falls and Oct. 4 in Perth. Each participant receives in-class training and access to Strudwick’s online exercises and recordings that can be downloaded for the complete 28-day program.

Strudwick said the program is unique in assisting high functioning individuals with

a dependency on alcohol because it is the first to attack the problem at the subconscious level.

“Other programs deal exclusively with the conscious mind . . . when the pattern is in the subconscious mind,” Strudwick said.

The state of intoxication is very similar to the feeling under hypnosis, which is why it works well to replace the one coping mechanism for the other with the added benefit of securing the method in the subconscious mind.

“Your subconscious mind can not be fooled,” he said.

The new cessation program has taken Strudwick years to perfect. He began eight years ago by researching existing programs and their success rates, as well as the physical changes alcohol produces in the body. “I needed to know what’s going on inside the mind,” Strudwick said.

After eight years of development and work the area resident feels confident he has a new cessation program to offer individuals in the Ottawa area that is unlike anything else. Registration is now open with an early bird deadline of Sept. 17 for $249. After that registration fee will increase to $299. Those wishing to register can call 1-888-692-9920 or log onto Strudwick’s website at www.insightstudiocanada. com.

The INSIGHT Studio The alcohol cessation program is one of many Strudwick’s new businesses, The INSIGHT Studio, is offering the region. Having opened mid-June this year the studio has grown rapidly thanks to the diversity of workshops offered. In addition to his sessions on weight loss, anger management and alcohol and smoking cessation is a host of services for the corporate world.

“I’m constantly working myself out of a job,” Strudwick said.

He offers programs designed to help people overcome procrastination, increase sales confidence, deal with demanding people and handle stress in a larger corporate setting. For businesses where time is of the essence, Strudwick will take his techniques to their door with half-hour power lunch sessions.

Strudwick moved to the Lanark area about four years ago with a vision of offering his unique services to the Ottawa area without having to battle the urban traffic. The INSIGHT Studio is hoping to hold a grand opening later this year to celebrate this new service in the region.

Strudwick’s journey to this new business began at a young age.

When he successfully put a bully in a trance at the age of 12, Strudwick’s interest increased in hypnosis and psychology. His confidence in the power of hypnosis comes from having seen what it’s done in his life. Eight years ago he was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, which took away his mobility at times.

“I was in so much pain I was bed ridden for nine months,” Strudwick recalls.

After a week of using hyp-

nosis he was able to leave his bed and within a month managed to put his symptoms into remission.

Station Theatre offers monthly movie night

By STACEY ROY sroy@perfprint.ca

EMC Entertainment - The Smiths Falls Station Theatre is responding to local demands for movies as we enter the cooler season with the launch of a monthly film night at the Victoria Avenue venue.

The idea to hold a monthly film night came out of discussions following the closure of the Premier Cinemas earlier this year and the expressed interest of Film Night International (hosted by the Friends of the Smiths Falls Public Library) to move their event to the theatre this season.

“It just seemed like a natural fit for us,” said Roger Sands, vice-president of the theatre.

Setting this new entertainment option in place required a lot of planning and coordination. The Station Theatre is grateful to the Brockville Arts Centre for its assistance in linking it with industry contacts.

The new movie night offering will be worked around the theatre’s existing live performance schedule and special events such as Film Night International. The nights will

focus on movies appropriate for an adult audience.

“Our plans are not to run children’s movies,” Sands said.

The inaugural film night will take place Friday, Sept.

21 and Saturday, Sept. 22 with the PG romantic comedy Hysteria. This tonguein-cheek story recounts the real-life introduction of the first vibrator at the peak of the Victorian era. Sands was impressed with the tasteful yet entertaining approach the film takes from start to finish.

“We thought it would be an interesting movie to start with,” he said.

The doors open this month at 7 p.m. with a 7:30 p.m. show start time. Tickets are $10 at the door (cash only sale) and are on a first come, first serve basis.

The theatre is set up to play films that have been released on DVD or Blu-ray and won’t be playing any film that is currently being viewed at the commercial theatres. Do you have a favourite movie title in mind? The Station Theatre is welcoming the community’s feedback on future film night features. Comments can be

received on their website at www.smithsfallstheatre.com/ contact. Audience members at each showing will also be polled for their comments with the hopes of growing local demand to increase the number of film nights available each month.

“That’s going to be strictly determined by demand,” Sands said.

Plans are still being firmed up for future months, but Sands said the theatre is interested in showing classic films and perhaps a Christmas special around the popular holiday.

Upcoming season Dates in their 2012-2013 season are really starting to fill up with five productions slated. Sands said a formal release on the upcoming live theatre schedule will be made very shortly. This aggressive schedule comes on the heels of the theatre’s most successful production to date: Anne with an E. Sands noted this production was filled to capacity five out of seven show nights. Please read future issues of The Record News for an update on the new production season.

tional event in which arts and culture in all its forms can be celebrated in an interactive and inclusive way.”

Part of that inclusivity is engaging the public in the conversation as to why culture matters to them – not just to our society as a whole, but to each and every individual.

“With the wonders of social media we now have the ability to move beyond the proverbial soapbox and actually engage Canadians in an open forum about what they have to share. The importance of a collective voice is priceless when it comes to fostering the love of culture in Canada.”

in this car for two weeks,” Kummer said.

At that time the car had pull down sleeping bunks (which account for the higher and curved ceiling) and seating on the floor. By the 1950s such cars were no longer needed so Canadian National gutted 16 colonist cars and converted them into combine cars (half passenger, half freight/ baggage). The 7195 car was

converted in 1956 and it is this design that museum visitors will be able to tour next season. Kummer is currently working on a mid-October deadline to finish the roof repairs and protecting the windows from leakage before the winter snow. Over the winter months a new set of windows will have to created as well as the flooring replaced. Kummer also has a significant amount

of rust damage on the bottom portion of the exterior car and doors, which will need to be addressed as well, but the passionate restorer is very clear about his objective.

“I’m restoring it as a static display,” he emphasized.

This will involve the work noted above as well as the complete re-installation of seating, baggage racks, trim, his and her washrooms and a

History The 7195 combine car started life in 1919 by the Pullman Car Company as a colonist car. For the next 30 years the car would pick up new Canadians in Halifax and Montreal ports and bring them to their land allotments in the west.

Norm Kummer is the first to take on the Adopt-A-Car program at the Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario. For the last month or so Kummer has been working on critical repairs to a 1919 combination train. Below is a submitted image of the exact car in service in Hearst. Anyone interested in the AdoptA-Car program can call the museum at 613-283-5696.

R0011562702_0816

EMC News - The Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario (RMEO) contains valuable transportation artifacts from the town and country’s history. Now, local residents and rail enthusiasts can be part of the ongoing preservation process with the launch of a new Adopt-A-Car program.

“We want the community to be involved and this is one way to do that,” said Anne Shropshire, museum curator.

“It can be a pretty unique experience.”

The program invites people to adopt a piece of rolling stock by providing free labour or monetary donations in the long-term to ensure it is restored and maintained for future generations. There are projects of all sizes available at the museum from the ongoing maintenance of existing open stock to complete renovations and the re-opening of new rolling stock experiences. There are currently six unopened cars available at the museum. The idea of the program got started this May when a former volunteer returned after 10 years with a desire to undertake a project.

Norm Kummer, former museum volunteer and retired engineer is the first person to take on an Adopt-A-Car project and chose to delve into a much more involved new renovation project. He selected the car in May and completed a repair report for the museum board by month’s end. From that point on the renovation was his baby and can be done at his pace.

Since Aug. 4 he has been working four days a week to prepare the museum’s combination car for public viewing next year.

“I’ve put in about 160 hours just on the car itself,” Kummer said.

What enticed the Ottawaarea retiree into this renovation was the presence of all the car’s parts in the 84 foot long, 72 metric tonnes piece as well as the car’s unique story.

hind it to tell people,” Kummer said.

The timing of the Adopt-ACar program couldn’t be better for 7195 as ongoing damage was beginning to take its toll on the historic asset making renovation a must if it was going to be salvaged. This is a similar story for the other six heavy weight stock cars awaiting renovation. Shropshire said they would love to find someone or a group of individuals interested in adopting a car to create a replica school car. A school car would have traveled up north alongside the dental car (already on display at the museum) providing services to communities cut off from other transportation routes.

1925 Findlay stove in the crew area.

“My plan is to put it all back,” Kummer added of the crew area. “I’m now actually able to start putting it back together.”

The last time the car received any renovation was after it was moved to the museum about 12 years ago. At that time the roof was completely redone and a lot of the removal of pieces was done.

Kummer said he is pleased the volunteers who undertook this work also took a lot of pictures to document the original condition of the car, which will be invaluable during his restoration project. Another important document that was donated at the museum this past May when Kummer and museum president, John Weir were discussing the prospect of the Adopt-A-Car program was the original blueprints of the car itself. Within this document the museum was able to learn some very exciting information.

“Our 7195 is a unique footprint. No other combination car has this layout,” Shropshire confirmed.

It’s one-of-a-kind nature has attracted a lot of attention by visitors to the museum who have stopped Kummer to ask him about his work and been given an impromptu tour.

“It is encouraging that there is that interest,” Shropshire said.

Kummer is given himself a two-year timeframe to complete the renovation project.

Ultimately, he would like to see a display set up in the freight area of the train that explains to visitors its storied past.

DIANE: Maca is a root plant that grows in the Andean mountains of Peru. It's a very hardy plant that grows where no other crops can survive. Maca has to endure extreme conditions ranging from freezing cold winds to intense sunlight, all within a period of 24 hours.

Herbalists say that the more resilient a plant, the more valuable it is from a medicinal perspective. I couldn't agree more. I think Maca is amazing and the feedback I get from customers greatly reinforces my opinion. Maca can be helpful for many health conditions such as: stress, hormone balancing, energy and stamina, sexual potency, adrenal support, fertility, PMS, acne and Bone health.

Maca will help balance, strengthen and support any area of the body that is compromised due to mental or physical stress. The adrenal glands are among the most beleaguered glands in the endocrine system since they must endure the brunt of our emotional health on a daily basis. It's critical that the adrenals remain strong and healthy as they are heavily relied upon during menopause and times of stress. Maca tones and strengthens the adrenal glands and thus the entire body, giving us the ability to resist disease and combat stress. It is often recommended by naturopaths to increase energy and vigor in elderly patients. Maca has a positive effect on the thyroid, parathyroid and the pancreas.

Using Maca is a safe and effective way to alleviate the symptoms of menopause (hot Ă&#x20AC;ashes, vaginal dryness, mood swings and loss of libido) as well helping prevent osteoporosis. Men can beneÂżt just as much as women from the hormonal regulating effects of Maca.

Men have a â&#x20AC;&#x153;menopauseâ&#x20AC;? of their own called â&#x20AC;&#x153;andropauseâ&#x20AC;? which is characterized by a decline in testosterone or the inability to use existing testosterone. Some common symptoms include low sex drive, impotence, depression, irritability, fatigue, muscle loss and fat accumulation. The beneÂżts of Maca seem to apply to people of all ages. Teenagers have also beneÂżted from the effects on hormonal balancing and acne. Maca is the natural answer for hormonal deÂżciencies!

Maca contains a lot of easily absorbable calcium plus magnesium and silica. Just as a potato or carrot, Maca is a very safe and common food that would not interfere with medications or other supplements.

In fact, it will help the body to absorb and utilize supplements to their highest capcity. Maca has been proven to be very safe and beneÂżcial for children and animals as well. In today's world of over processed, high sugar foods and demineralized soil, it's nice for parents to know there is a highly nutritious, non-toxic alternative that has no known side effects. Maca is available in powder form as well as capsules and in the form of a dark chocolate bar. Everyone can beneÂżt from Maca!!

Bears earn split in season-opening games

By STAFF

R0011608345_0913

EMC Sports – Save for one bad period, the Smiths Falls Jr A Bears might have swept their two games at last weekend’s CCHL Fall Showcase in Kanata.

As it turned out, they settled for a 6-5 loss to the Gloucester Rangers last Friday and an exciting 7-6 overtime win over the Cumberland Grads on Saturday.

Chris Maniccia was the scoring hero against the Grads, connecting on his second goal of the game with just 50 seconds left in the fiveminute overtime to give the Jr. A club their first win of the young season.

Maniccia, entering his second year with the Bears, scored his first 10:07 into the third period, giving Smiths Falls a 6-4 lead. But the Grads fought back, tying things with a pair of unanswered goals from Sean Naish at 12:33 and Philippe Paquette at 14:41.

The Grads had opened the game on fire, building a 2-0 lead by the 8:01 mark of the first period. But back-to-back goals from newcomer Yannick Crete and Patrick Sexton (power play) had things locked up at 2 by the end of the opening period.

Bears broke things open in the second with three more goals, all scored with the man advantage. Jeff Carroll gave the Bears their first lead at 3:26 followed by a pair of goals from Nic Marchand at 5:19 and 14:43.

This time it was the Grads’ turn to bounce back. Justin Pelock and Nick Martin scored late in the frame to knot things up at 5-5 after 40 minutes.

The power plays were on fire for both teams in this one.

Bears forward Michael Buonincontri (24) battles along the boards with Cumberland Grad Sean Naish during Saturday’s CCHL showdown at the Kanata Recreation Complex. The Bears came away with a 7-6 win in overtime.

The Bears went 5 for 9 while the Grads scored three times off six opportunities.

The night before, a furious comeback by the Bears fell just short in the one-goal loss to the Rangers.

Trailing 6-2 midway through the third period, Jesse Blais sparked the comeback with his first goal of the year

at the 12:33 mark. Nic Marchand made things interesting at 17:30 and Jeff Carroll pulled the team to within one with 14 seconds left in regulation. His goal came on the power play and with goalie Patrick Martin on the bench for an extra attacker.

Despite winning the faceoff at centre and sending the puck into the Rangers’ end,

the Bears couldn’t get one more shot to send it to overtime.

This one did not start well for the Bears who were dominated by last year’s CCHL cellar-dwellers in the opening 20 minutes. After surrendering the opening goal to Brett Varrin at 5:41, they had no

4-0 a minute into the second before the Bears managed to regain some traction and work their way back into the game.

First Michael Buonincontri got the team on the board at 6:25, then Daniel Disipio ripped a shot off the post and past goalie Gunner Rivers at 19:39.

The Bears could have had more except for an incredible glove stop made by Rivers off the stick of Karson McCartney who rifled a shot from the slot that should have found the back of the net.

And despite facing steady pressure from the Bears, the Rangers managed to extend their lead again in the third off goals by Keegan Rowe and Travis Meyer before barely hanging on.

OVERTIME: • The Bears open the official home portion of their season this Friday, Sept. 14 when they play host to the Carleton Place Canadians.

Game time is 7:30 p.m. The Canadians were a perfect 2-0 in the Showcase with wins over Cumberland and Gloucester. Before that, the Bears played one more road game on Wednesday against the Jr. Senators in Ottawa.

Smiths Falls athlete takes on the world in 2013 race

By STACEY ROY sroy@perfprint.ca

By STAFF

Submitted by the Canadian Blood Services.

“I’m not going to hold back.

I’m going to put on the very best show I can,” he said.

Details on the course have yet to be released, but Turnbull expects to find it around the Parliament buildings to showcase the capital’s most impressive streetscape.

Helping Turnbull get to this point was a great performance and perfect course in Cobourg’s July 27 qualifier.

“It was a good race for me, for sure,” Turnbull said.

The course distance was exactly the same as the World’s this year (10-40-5), which required Turnbull to adjust his competitive approach to com-

pensate for his biking.

“I ran them down, basically,” he said.

The athlete consciously held back on his bike and let his competitors get ahead of him so he could keep his energy for the final 5 km length at the end. It turned out this approach resulted in a second place win in his age category and a fifth place win overall.

That very day Turnbull made his application to Triathlon Canada for a place on the nation’s duathlon team and heard the good news just a couple of weeks ago.

“It’s going to be pretty big for me, for sure,” he added.

EMC News - On Friday, Oct. 5 Smiths Falls and area residents will be giving from the heart by donating their time and blood at the regular blood donor clinic inside the Civitan Club hall.

The drive runs from 1 to 4 p.m. and from 5 to 8 p.m.

Everyone is welcome to drop by to donate, but may be able to save some time if they call 1-888-2-DONATE to book an appointment.

Canadian Blood Services is a national, not-for-profit charitable organization that manages the blood supply in all provinces and territories outside of Quebec and oversees the country’s OneMatch Stem Cell and Marrow Network.

A dedicated team of about 4, 800 staff and 17, 000 volunteers enable the crew to operate 41 permanent collection sites and more than 20,000 donor clinics each year such as the one coming to Smiths Falls.

Canadian Blood Services is a non-governmental organization, however the provincial and territorial ministers of health provide operational funding, and the federal government, through Health Canada, is responsible for regulating the blood system. For more information please visit www.blood.ca.

Seeing their father realize a dream is a powerful lesson in perseverance and dedication.

The World race will require the Smiths Falls man to compete in a 10km run, 40km bike and 5km run (based on this year’s route). Turnbull expects there to be physical pain as most races do, but says this is all part of the experience as is knowing the pain is temporary and will pass.

“You mentally have to push your way through it,” he said.

Turnbull’s competitive drive won’t let him turn down the heat on his competitors be it on a practice race or the upcoming World’s.

R0011609612_0913

EMC Sports - Corey Turnbull didn’t begin his 2012 race season expecting to qualify for next year’s World’s Duathlon Championships, but the Smiths Falls athlete couldn’t pass up this opportunity to realize a dream.

The decision to compete in the July 27 qualifying duathlon race in Cobourg was done on the last day of registration just two days before the race. At the time Turnbull was training for the upcoming Kingston race the following weekend. This was put on the back burner when he realized next year’s world competition will be held in Ottawa for the first time.

“It’s going to be the first time that it’s going to be held on Canadian soil,” he said.

The chance to have his three children, ages 11, nine and seven, at the finish line cheering him on for his first team Canada experience Aug. 10 to 12, 2013 is something Turnbull said he is really looking forward to.

“It’s always good to see their faces and smiles,” he added. “I may not always see them but I can always hear them.”

“It’s been a dream of mine forever to compete on behalf of Canada.”

Turnbull’s competitive racing career began just four years ago when he took part in the 5km event in Smiths Falls. The energy and high of competition hooked him and he began to work with his current coach who will be with him next August at the World’s.

Turnbull hopes the 2013 race is only the first of many world-calibre races he will compete in before his racing days are done. As a frequent Triathlon and Ironman participant, Turnbull would like to push himself and compete on the world stage in these races as well.

“That one’s going to take me a little bit more work,” Turnbull said of the Ironman.

This fall he is focusing on training for his November race in Philadelphia. He hopes the race will prepare him for a 2014 qualification in Boston.

He thanks his family and the strong multi-sport community he has in the Smiths Falls area for their ongoing support.

EMC Sports - With 1,800 plus fans (an attendance record) in the stands, the Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre was not only packed but loud with excitement when two Major Jr A teams (OHL, QMJHL) brought their rivalry to town for a pre-season bout.

The crowd was on the edge of their seats from the beginning of the game right to the end where former Smiths Falls Bear Ryan Van Stralen scored the winning goal. I had the chance to catch up to the hero of the game for a quick interview...

How did it feel to play back

in the old barn tonight? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pretty emotional. The fans were pretty passionate and loud from the puck drop, so it was pretty cool to be back.

Pretty fun game!â&#x20AC;?

What are your goals this season playing with the 67â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just to be a key player.

This year we lost a lot of big names, and we need guys to step up, so I am hoping to do that for them this year and contribute a lot offensively and defensively.â&#x20AC;?

Fans who came out tonight, there were a lot of them, anything you want to say to, or about, the fans in Smiths Falls?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thank you! It was pretty cool, they cheered pretty loud for me when I scored and when I was coming out on the ice, so it was pretty emotional.

I only played a year and-a-half to two years here, but they are really passionate fans and stick behind their players even when they move on, so it was nice to see them, it was really cool.â&#x20AC;?

Everyone in Smiths Falls is very proud of Van Stralen and his intense drive to develop his brand of hockey into a pro status rank.

First Ottawa 67s goalie drops puck at town exhibition match

By STACEY ROY sroy@perfprint.ca

EMC Sports - Gary Doyle got the best seat in the house at the recent Ottawa 67â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grudge match against Gatineau in Smiths Falls.

The area resident and former 67â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goalie had expected to take in the Sept. 7 game, but never dreamed heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be dropping the puck at centre ice. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just what happened last Friday when Doyle alongside local arena builder, Chris Saumure of Guy Saumure & Sons Construction shared the honour at the local exhibition game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was part of the official proposal of the Ottawa 67â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s,â&#x20AC;? said Rick St. Dennis, director of community services who knew Doyle during his hockey years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My wife and I never missed a hockey game when he was playing there.â&#x20AC;?

Anticipation has been building since the announcement of the exhibition game between the arch rival OHL/ QMJHL teams was made earlier this year. This animosity hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite been built the first year of the Ottawa 67â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s team when Doyle stood between the pipes in his 67â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jersey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Getting to play in the league was a big thrill,â&#x20AC;? Doyle said.

The Smiths Falls resident played about 100 games during the first two seasons of the Ottawa 67â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s franchise in 1967-68 and learned a lot about his game while gain-

ing precious memories and cementing friendships despite what the scoreboard read at gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We took some good beatingsâ&#x20AC;? that first year, Doyle said.

Very often the young Doyle would defend his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s net against an average of 50 shots

5-2 losing match. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I always said playing goal was the best seat in the house.â&#x20AC;?

The 1967 season began with the opening of the Civic Centre - the home of the capital region team. In fact, the closure of this centre this

a night from the best players in the league. During one exhibition game against the Montreal Canadiens (a team Doyle was to be drafted to at the end of his 67â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career) he bested this average with a total of 75 shots against him of which only five went through. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was cool,â&#x20AC;? he said of the

season for renovations is part of the reason local hockey fans had the privilege of seeing this level of hockey at the local arena last week. Doyle thought the exhibition game was a good move by the Ottawa club whose presence in

town is hoped to inspire a future generation of players to reach great heights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great thing for young kids,â&#x20AC;? Doyle added of the new arena. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I used to spend all my waking hours throwing golf balls and catching them.â&#x20AC;?

Doyleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hockey career began like most on the streets where heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d get together with friends for an impromptu game. One year some of his friends joined the town hockey league, so Doyle decided he would volunteer for the goalieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position and got it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I loved playing goal when I was young. It was fun,â&#x20AC;?

Doyle said.

From this humble start Doyle worked on his skills on his own and through daily practice to ultimately be drafted as a Smiths Falls Bear where he played for two years before moving up to the Ottawa 67â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. The level of specialized training and instruction each hockey player now receives from the start has greatly increased since Doyleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time creating a faster, more complex level of play at every level. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a completely different game,â&#x20AC;? Doyle said.

The local realtor and tradesperson still gets onto the ice from time to time, but has traded in his goalieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s glove for a regular stick during Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play.

COADY, Sean Douglas In loving memory of our dear son, who tragically was taken too soon, September 16, 2006.

Every day our hearts are filled with sorrow, Wondering how we will make it through tomorrow.

Our time with you was precious, And the memories we have are too.

The love we share together keeps us close to you.

Maybe we cannot touch your hand or see your smiling face, Maybe we cannot hear your voice or feel your warm embrace, But, there is something we will always have, Tucked safely in our hearts, Our love for you… your love for us… will never let us part.

“Those we love stay with us always, locked in our hearts as long as our life remains.”

Love, Mom and Dad

COADY, Sean Douglas Remembering my fun and loving brother… my best friend… who left this earth, much too soon, September 16, 2006.

Si x years have passed… not a day goes by that I don’t think of you and wish for one more laugh, one more hug.

Time passes… the grief remains, but I know that you would say…

Keep my memory with you, For memories never die.

I will always be there with you, When you look up in the sky.

When your heart is heavy And you feel you are alone, Reach deep down inside yourself For your heart is now my home.

I will always be there with you I will never go away I will live on within your heart Each and every day.

“In my mind I see you and in my heart I keep you…”

Love, Erin

GARDINER, Elizabeth Anne - June 20, 1958 September 12, 2009.

We little knew that morning God was to call your name.

In life we loved you dearly, In death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you, You did not go alone.

For part of us went with you, The day God called you home.

You left us beautiful memories, Your love is still our guide, And though we cannot see you, You are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken, And nothing seems the same, But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again.

Our love is evergreen Love you forever Dad and Allen

In loving memory of Steven McCartney September 12th, 2011 You were taken from us one year ago Can the pain within our deepest fibers be transformed?

It is a choice.

To struggle and battle our way back to some sense of normalcy Not the normalcy we once lived but to a place where we can find joy in one another, the sunset, a moment of success and the people God has placed before us.

Turn the pain out Focus on what is good and what we can contribute during the time we have left.

We are not alone in our anguish Suffering is interwoven into this journey called “life”.

No one is immune.

Upon this realization we will fight our way back Because that is what you would have wanted.

We will forever love you and miss you Shawna, Sierra and Karson

Linda Joan Kehoe 1952 - 2011 This is a letter from Heaven… to you Mom! When tomorrow starts without me, and I’m not here to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes filled with tears for me.

I wish so much you wouldn’t cry, the way you did today, While thinking of many things, we don’t get to say.

I know how much you love me, as much as I love you, And each time you think of me, I know you’ll miss me to.

When tomorrow starts without me, don’t think we’re far apart, For every time you think of me, I’m right there in your heart.

Love always, Angie (String), Melanie (Chris), Christina (Norm), Carole (the late Ian), Angel, Grandhildren and Great Grandchild

PORTEOUS, Ronnie – October 14, 1943– September 7, 2008.

Remembering you is easy, we do it everyday.

Missing you is a heartache that never goes away.

We hold you tightly within our hearts and there you will remain.

Life goes on without you but it will never be the same.

Never forgotten, always missed. Love you Dad. Carly & Kayla Porteous

MARKS, Rob- February 23,1973 - September 16,2001. In loving memory of our Daddy, Son, Brother, Brother-in-law and Uncle.

And in memory of our Grandpa Levi (Lew) Baker May 10, 1995 September 22, 1971.

The Voice of the Wind When the warm breeze of April caresses you part of it will be me.

When you look in the eyes of my children part of them will be me.

When a snowflake of winter plants a kiss on your cheek, that kiss might well have been me.

And the dust which appears out of nowhere may be part of the dust that was me.

Through the promise of morning and the voice of the wind I will always have something to say.

To reflect on those wonderful moments and warm you as you make your way.

All things that we both were a part of will continue to brighten each day.

Making room for the sound of your laughter by remembering I’m not far away.

Carleton Place swept CCHL Showcase games; Smiths Falls and Kemptville were competitive

By JEFF MAGUIRE

EMC Sports - There is a long season ahead, but for area teams in the Central Canada Hockey League (CCHL) optimism is high after some very positive results in the season-opening CCHL Showcase in Kanata last weekend.

Carleton Place Canadians, fourth place finishers in the 12-team loop last season, were one of only two teams who swept their showcase encounters. The other was perennial league champion Pembroke Lumber Kings.

Smiths Falls Bears, who grabbed the eighth and final post season position last spring, split their season opening games scoring a dozen goals in the process.

Kemptville 73’s, who are under new management this season, dropped both of their outings in the weekend competition.

However, both were onegoal losses including a 4-3 setback at the hands of the always tough Pembroke team Saturday night.

The new Kemptville ownership group includes former Ottawa Senators (NHL) goalie Ron Tugnutt. Management hopes to improve a team which has made the playoffs just once in five years and has yet to win a post season contest.

One thing the showcase clearly demonstrated is that heading into the season every team in the 12 team loop is competitive.

The event was played Friday to Sunday at Kanata Recreation Complex and featured 11 games in three days under one roof. Seven were decided by one goal and six teams finished the weekend 1-1. Two contests were settled in overtime while one game went to a shootout!

The only glitch was an unexpected ice-time conflict Sunday which forced the league to scrub the scheduled game between Ottawa Junior Senators and Hawkesbury Hawks. It will be rescheduled.

League President and Chief Operating Officer Kevin Abrams is delighted with the way the new campaign has begun.

“Another year of excellent exposure for our players is underway,” he said Monday.

“We had 19 NHL teams among the over 100 organizations in attendance. Over half were NCAA coaches.”

The league hosts two showcase events, one to open the campaign and the other just before Christmas.

Both are major attractions for hockey scouts from the National Hockey League

and Canadian Major Junior teams, but especially for coaches from the National Collegiate Athletic Association in the United States.

American colleges and universities are a magnet for CCHL players who seek to combine hockey with education. Scores of players from the league win scholarships to U.S. schools. A number use the experience as a springboard to reach professional hockey including the NHL. Good balance Heading into the regular season Abrams is especially pleased with the balance in the Tier 1 Junior A league.

“The competitive balance was evident and we anticipate six months of great junior hockey in the CCHL,” the president and COO says.

Ten teams opened the season with two weekend contests in Kanata. As mentioned, Pembroke and Carleton Place were the only sides to sweep their showcase outings.

For the first time in six years Pembroke is not the defending CCHL champion as the long regular season begins. That honour belongs to Nepean Raiders who needed seven games to get past Cornwall Colts in last spring’s league championship series.

Raiders opened with a 4-3 win over Hawkesbury Saturday. On Sunday night they were edged 2-1 by Cornwall in the final game of the showcase.

Nepean head coach and general manager Peter Goulet is excited about the season ahead.

“It’s a good league.

You’ve got to show up every night if you expect to win in this league,” he told the EMC Monday.

Despite the fact some key players from last year’s championship team have now moved on Goulet is confident Raiders have added quality replacements.

“We have lost a lot of players, especially three big guys on defence. But I think we’ve recruited well.

We should be fine.”

Carleton Place posted the only shut out of the weekend, blanking Gloucester Rangers 6-0 behind a 20 save performance by newcomer Matt Couvrette Sunday evening.

For Couvrette there was a little bit of revenge involved. He played for Rangers briefly before joining Arnprior Packers of the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League (Junior B) midway through last season. Couvrette, a 19-yearold from Ottawa, was a major factor as Packers

went on to claim the Valley Division championship in the EOJHL. “I was impressed by Matt last year,” says Carleton Place head coach and general manager Jason Clarke.

“Now he’s with us and we are glad to have him.”

Clarke was also pleased with the work of his other net minder Justin Laforest in Friday’s 4-3 win over Cumberland Grads.

“Justin had an outstanding game. We’re not as gifted offensively this season. So if we get good goaltending and defence that will be a big plus for us,” Clarke observes.

Canadians are hoping to advance farther in the league playoffs next spring.

The fourth year club had an outstanding regular season in 2011-2012, finishing a strong fourth. But they were the victims of a surprising sweep at the hands of Hawkesbury in the opening round of the playoffs. It marked the second straight campaign in which they fell at the quarter final pole.

Although satisfied with their start on the weekend, Clarke is also realistic!

“We did some good things and it was a really positive weekend. But there is a lot we need to work on.

“The boys played hard

and were competitive – a good start for sure.”

In an earlier newspaper interview leading up to the campaign Clarke said, “We’ve got a lot to prove as an organization. It’s a long season but our goal is to go deeper in the playoffs.”

Lumber Kings, who won five consecutive championships before losing out to Nepean in the semi-finals last spring, have started strong.

Pembroke, who won their first national title in the spring of 2011, went 5-0 in the pre-season and then won both of their showcase games on the weekend.

The only teams who failed to win in Kanata were rebuilding Kemptville and Cumberland. But like Kemptville, Grads suffered a pair of one-goal defeats including a 7-6 overtime loss to Smiths Falls on Saturday night.
