Tough to adjust Monitoring continues at new four-way stop Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News - Old habits die hard, and such is the case with Renfrew’s newest four-way stop. Traditionally a two-way stop at Argyle Street and Renfrew Avenue, the closeness of buildings to the intersection precipitated a change to four stop signs. The two newest signs were erected the last week of June, but a number of drivers were still seen driving through the stop signs on Renfrew Avenue the ﬁrst few days. After monitoring by public works staff and the Ontario Provincial Police, development and works director

Mike Asselin says community members are making the adjustment. “When we talked to the Ontario Provincial Police, they said it takes some time for drivers to make the change,” said Asselin. “Like with all change, people had a bit of a tough time adjusting. People have been driving the road for 30 or 40 years, so it’s engrained that there’s no stop signs (on Renfrew).” The town had a similar reaction a few years ago when the two-way stop at Lochiel and Lisgar, beside Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church, was changed to three stops, said Asselin. Initially, the town put up ‘new’ warning signs several metres before Renfrew and Argyle, in addition to the stop signs themselves. Stop bars were also painted on the road. See STOP, page 2

Bluegrass hits the Stop Ottawa Valley this weekend

Continued from front

Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

Arts - There are many great events that bring people to the Ottawa Valley throughout the year. One of those is the annual Valley Bluegrass Festival. Starting today, the banjo, guitar and fiddle music will be front and centre at Johnston’s Farm on Castleford Road. The 19th annual Valley Bluegrass Festival kicks off at noon today (Thursday) and runs through Sunday at 408 Castleford Road (County Road 20). Gates open at noon today, with organized open stage entertainment this evening at 7 p.m. The scheduled music gets underway Friday from 4:15 until 11 p.m.; Saturday from 10:15 a.m. to 11:45 p.m.; and Sunday from 9:15 a.m. to 5 p.m. Among featured entertainers are Bob & Billie Sue Goff & Mill Run of Virginia Friday and Saturday, and Canadian band Bluegrass Edition of Owen Sound, also on Friday and Saturday. Taking to the stage Saturday and Sunday are Virginia bands Nothin’ Fancy Bluegrass and The Dick Smith/Mike O’Reilly Band, American Drive of Kentucky, and Nova Scotia’s Shadow River. Shadow River had nine nominations in the Eastern Canada Bluegrass Awards in 2012 and won five. They were winners of the ECBMA band of the year, Male vocalist of the year Dave Doyle, composer and banjo player of the year Ryan Dillman, and mandolin player of the year Doug Proctor. The Stevens Family of Kentucky – made up of a mom and dad, one daughter and four sons – is on stage Friday and Saturday. There are also a number of entertainers from closer to home. Grass Under Fire of the Ottawa Valley area opens Friday’s schedule at 4:15 p.m., and then returns later that same day at 8 p.m. Other area groups are the High Water Band (Saturday at 5:45 p.m. and Sunday at 12:30 p.m.), Grassland (Friday at 6:30 p.m. and Saturday at 10:15 a.m.), and C. Denny Blue-

grass of North Bay (Saturday at 11 a.m. and Sunday at 9:15 a.m.). The Louis Schryer Fiddle & Stepdancing Show Friday at 7:15 p.m. features master flddler Louis Schryer, grand master fiddle champ, and North American past winner in the long-running Pembroke Fiddle Contest, plus numerous other awards. Sunday’s music kicks off at 9:15 a.m. with gospel from C. Denny Bluegrass, Shadow River (10 a.m.), Julie, Jennifer & Friends (10:45 a.m.) and American Drive (11 a.m.). The final entertainer of the weekend is the Dick Smith/Mike O’Reilly Band Sunday at 4:15 p.m. A banjo workshop takes place on the main stage Saturday at 4:30, followed by a mandolin workshop at 5 p.m. Emcees throughout the weekend are Mike O’Reilly, Howard Bonner and guest radio DJs. Sound is by John Cameron. “The volunteer committee that hosts and organizes this festival feels that it is important to give back to the community where they live and work,” points out the Valley Bluegrass website. The festival has raised well over $80,000 since its inception. Funds raised go back into the community. This year’s proceeds go to Renfrew Victoria Hospital. The family-oriented festival also includes shade tents, food and craft vendors, and a kids craft tent. Bring your own lawn chair, organizers add. The committee thanks sponsors, volunteers, festival patrons and all those who contribute to the annual event. “Together, you continue to make a real difference in the lives of others,” the committee added. “A little bit of Bluegrass is a powerful thing.” Gate admission is $75 for the weekend, Friday $20, all day Saturday $30, Saturday after 5 p.m. $20, and Sunday $20. Children under 16 are admitted free of charge if accompanied by an adult. Breakfast is available on site Saturday and Sunday. See website www. valleybluegrass.ca for the band schedule.

However, some drivers were still not seeing the advisory signs and were continuing through the stop signs. In efforts to improve the situation, public works added a second set of ‘new’ signs, atop the actual stop signs, and that appears to have helped. More monitoring will also be done in September, with the return to school, when traffic is traditionally heavier. “The intent is that the signs are going to be permanent. The only problem that might arise (to change that) would be if there is traffic backup,” said Asselin, referring to the possibility of backup to the Raglan-Renfrew intersection in front of the post office building.

501-2500 Palladium Dr. Kanata As Volkswagen’s global popularity continues to grow, it’s causing increased traffic and sales at all Canadian dealerships. Myer’s Volkswagen in Ottawa’s West has chosen to take a decidedly customer-centered approach in resolving the growth issues caused by this increased attention when they open their doors to a new expanded facility at 501-2500 Palladium Drive in the Palladium Auto Park this Saturday, June 22nd. Since taking over the busy Bells Corners retail outlet (formerly known as Citiwest VW) in 2010, the Myers Automotive Group has applied their unique philosophy of ‘customer-first’ thinking in every aspect of the VW store. The results are amazing. Sales volumes rose by 70% and the customer satisfaction rates experienced similar dramatic increases. VW owners have always been a loyal group, sticking with their brand when others around them may have thought their choices were quirky and eccentric. But now it seems the whole automotive consumer world is in love with VW’s brand of quirkiness. Car buyers have found that underneath the skin, VW is all about bringing the latest available technology to serve in terms of performance, efficiency, safety, and comfort. And while auto critics may have, in the past, been excused for their humorous views on VW’s styling (think Beetle and Microbus), not even the harshest critic has an unkind word on the styling of today’s Volkswagens. Ottawa’s Myers Group of retail facilities believes that loyal customers deserve top treatment and that’s what’s in store for them at the new Myers Volkswagen. Located in the heart of Ottawa’s auto retail sector; the Palladium Autopark with its own 417 interchange, Myers VW will welcome shoppers into a bright ten-car showroom allowing them to learn all about Volkswagen’s advantages in a hands-on manner surrounded by the vehicles they’re interested in. Service customers will be treated to a climate

controlled drive-in reception centre leading to a 16 bay technology department designed to take care of every maintenance and repair need. While parking on the old location was definitely a challenge, the new facility will have plenty of accessible spaces making a quick stop or an extended visit a breeze. Being located right off Highway 417, means easy connections to any area in the Ottawa/Gatineau region, perfect for service and sales customers alike. What won’t change at Myers Volkswagen is the friendly open style of service that their customers have come to enjoy and benefit from. The entire staff is making the move west along with vehicles, parts, equipment and furniture. General Manager Trevor King credits a very dedicated team with keeping customers satisfied and everything running smoothly even in the midst of this major move. He witnesses on a daily basis their efforts in making sure every client gets the most out of their experience, whether it’s a new or pre-owned vehicle purchase, or a quick oil change, or a major repair. And of course Myers VW customers love having access to the longest service hours in the city, and that definitely won’t change. The service and parts departments are open from 6 am to 8 pm Monday through Thursday, 6 am to 6 pm on Fridays and 6 am to 5 pm on Saturdays. The sales showroom is open from9 am to 9 pm Monday through Thursday, 9 am to 6 pm on Fridays and 9 am to 5 pm on Saturdays. Volkswagen’s grand vision is to become the world’s largest automaker by 2018 and they are well on their way. They just have to look at their successful retailers for inspiration and experience. Myers Volkswagen has been number one in the greater Ottawa region since they opened in 2010. Call them at 613 592 8484 for sales or 613 596 8689 for service or log onto www.myersvw.com to find out how you can be number one on your roads in a Myers Volkswagen. R0012200905

Hospital researcher to volunteer at Ride the Rideau By Tracey Tong

It is a root cause of : ¹ stroke ¹ heart disease ¹ sudden cardiac arrest ¹ diabetes ¹ kidney disease

He may be one of Canada’s top neuromuscular researchers, as well as a Senior Scientist and Deputy Scientiﬁc Director at the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute, but Dr. Rashmi Kothary is still not too busy to help a good cause. Rashmi and his wife, Arti, will be volunteering for the second year with Ride the Rideau, The Ottawa Hospital Foundation’s signature fundraising event. The fundraiser, which has raised $4.4 million for cancer research at The Ottawa Hospital over the last three years, will be held on Saturday, September 7. Kothary, who is also a Professor in the Departments of Medicine and Cellular and Molecular Medicine at the University of Ottawa, said cancer impacts many people, including his own family and friends.

Stellar citizens in spotlight Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News - Every Canada Day, citizens of Admaston-Bromley have many good reasons for honouring their very own citizen and senior citizen of the year for contributions that make their community a better place to be. The tradition continued this year, but was extended to

include a junior category. Mayor Raye-Anne Briscoe emceed the ceremony that paid tribute to Ian Clelland as the citizen of the year, Ron Dick as senior citizen and Breigh Whalen as junior citizen. One of the most emotional moments of the afternoon occurred when Whalen, 17, left the podium in tears and embraced her neighbour, Jody

Plunkett, who had nominated her. Whalen, who attended Grade 12 this year at St. Joseph’s Catholic High School, turned heads with her quantity and quality of volunteer work. Dressed in a Team Canada hockey jersey, she heard speakers deliver accolades about her attitude and activities.

STEVE NEWMAN/METROLAND

Last Wednesday, July 3rd Kathleen Wynne called for by-elections in five Ontario ridings to be held on August 1st: Ottawa South, Windsor-Tecumseh, London West, Etobicoke-Lakeshore and Scarborough-Guildwood.

Continued from page 6

Her accomplishments included receiving the Award of Merit at the 2013 Miss Teen Ontario East Pageant, serving as St. Joe’s students council prime minister and organizer of many events, and volunteering at numerous events, among them Relay for Life, the LAFT dinner theatre and Ottawa Race Weekend, that helped heighten awareness of childhood cancer. “Breigh is a young woman who should inspire all of us to be more community spirited,” said Mayor Briscoe. “Absolutely, we should all feel more confident in the future if Breigh is an example of what caring, giving and pro-active young people we have within our community.” Major motivators for the work she does include her parents Peter and Cecie, other community members and friends. “I just feed off the excitement from everybody else when I give back,” said the township’s first junior citizen of the year, who’s returning to St. Joe’s for a fifth year, en route to pursuing studies to become a developmental service worker. “I’m so proud. How could you not be,” said her mother after the ceremony. “I just hope I lead by example,” said the 17-year-old junior citizen of the year, “and that others learn that giving is what is important, that giving is what makes the community stronger.” Coun. Michael Donohue, who spoke on behalf of council, said he knew the junior citizen of the year as a neighbour with a brilliant smile and effervescent character who had set the bar extremely high for future nominees. Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon also congratulated her. “You can count me as one of your admirers and supporters,” said Emon, noting he expected to hear more from this young lady who has already displayed leadership and devotion to causes.

(Mayor Briscoe) announced it,” admitted Clelland, 62. At the same time, he said he hopes merely to set an example. “Everybody is capable to doing these things,” he said, noting that we all have strengths that allow us to shine in certain areas. What keeps him volunteering is the community itself, said the Pembroke native who moved to Admaston Township in 1984. “It’s a very caring community; (you want to) give back like they give to you.” Those many volunteer contributions have included serving as the director of the Admaston Cemetery from 1985 to 2013, Renfrew Fair board director for 15 years, treasurer of the Grace United Church and Admaston Pastoral Charge, working on the Renfrew and Area Health Services Village fundraising committee, treasurer of the Admaston and Area Food Grains Committee since its inception several years ago, and being a neighbour one can count on. SENIOR CITIZEN OF YEAR

Tribute was also paid to Ron Dick, 68, as senior citizen of the year. He was saluted as an integral member of the Bromley recreation committee since 1986, during which time he was a driving force behind the building and paving of the

dent several years ago. “I never expected anything like that, and I’m really honoured that I got the senior citizen award,” said the recipient. As a virtual description of the contributions made by the township’s three celebrated citizens, Mayor Briscoe said, “We have, and will continue to build this country, always, always conscious that the best programs, policies and how we govern ourselves rise from our deeply-rooted tradition of working together. “Working together results in our ability to rely on access to healthcare, access to education, access to employment and unemployment programs, access to pensions … Our community, our neighbours, our collective past, present and future reflects the values and principles of a society that works together, works together for the common good.” MPP John Yakabuski reflected similarly when he said billions of people in the world would give everything they have, “and 10 times what they don’t have … to enjoy the life we enjoy as Canadians.” Canada Day, he stressed, is one of those days when Canadians can celebrate their nationality and show gratitude for this special place called Canada and for AdmastonBromley, which he referred to as “a special place within a special place,” because of its community members.

By calling these by-elections in the summer, Wynne has revealed her true colours and demonstrated her strategy. She is manipulating the dates to give the Liberals whatever advantage she can in these elections. I must point out that the Liberals currently hold every one of these ridings and have in place a successful electionready machine from the 2011 general election. Wynne’s hope is that the volunteer base for us the PCs, and the NDP is limited because of the summer. What is more disturbing is the fact that her call is an affront to the democratic process. The very basis of our system is that the greatest number of voters possible elects their representatives. Ontario is coming off a general election in 2011 in which the voter turnout was the lowest in history. I think it’s fair to ask, what will the voter turnout be in electing five new MPPs? It’s clear she wants as few people as possible voting. She doesn’t want those who are angered by the multiple Liberal scandals to be casting their ballots. The most recent being the relocation of the gas plants and the email destruction scandal. Speaking of the gas plant and email destruction scandal, as a member of the committee delving into this mess I had the opportunity to question former Premier Dalton McGuinty on Tuesday June 25th. I questioned him on his role, and what he knew about the destruction of emails in his office and in the offices of other senior Liberals. I was never as disappointed in his performance as I was that day. McGuinty displayed an arrogance and an “I am above the law” attitude that was not befitting a former Premier. Incidentally, there is a by-election in McGuinty’s riding because he broke one last promise, which was to fulfill his role as MPP, even after he stepped down as Premier. He couldn’t even keep that one. You should know that the Liberals nominated successor in the riding of Ottawa South is none other than his long-time executive assistant John Fraser. When the Liberal email scandal became public it was obvious that the Justice committee looking into the gas plant cancellations had more work to do. As a result, PC members of the committee put forward a motion for the committee to keep sitting through the month of July. The Liberals voted against that motion, and the NDP abstained. Consequently the motion failed.

CITIZEN OF THE YEAR

Ian Clelland’s family is no stranger to volunteer contributions. His wife Lynn, who was recently awarded the prestigious Syngenta 4-H Ontario Arbor Award, was also an AdmastonBromley citizen of the year in 2005. Nevertheless, the award came as a total surprise. “I just about fell over when she

Douglas rink. He also served as committee president from 1992 to 2011 and remains, in Mayor Briscoe’s words, a “goto” guy for younger committee members working on fundraising and other projects. He also negotiated with the Catholic school board to create the ball diamond. He has worn many hats over the years, said Mayor Briscoe, like cooking at BBQs, tending bar at fundraising events, collecting supplies and chairing numerous events. “Ron is a team player who is motivated to be a positive force within his community,” stressed Briscoe. “He has set the standard for volunteerism.” Dave Lemkay, a past Admaston-Bromley citizen of the year, was among those who congratulated him. Standing in for MP Cheryl Gallant, Lemkay read from her certificate: “I extend my warmest congratulations …your years of involvement and dedication in your community is admired and respected in AdmastonBromley Township. You have focused your energies towards worthy causes … I express my sincere congratulations for being chosen the senior citizen of the year.” The award winner was popular in the eyes of Agnes Lynch, who sat in the audience. Afterwards, she told The Mercury that Ronnie Dick saved her and her husband’s life during a snowmobile inci-

Citizens

That’s right, on the eve of the long weekend. I cannot recall at any time when an Ontario by-election has been held in the height of summer. Wynne had until August 16th to call the by-elections which would mean that they could not have been held before September 12th. This would have taken them out of the summer vacation period.

On our witness list for the month of July would have been the aforementioned John Fraser, who was McGuinty’s main man and Mr. Fixit in Ottawa. The committee will be sitting again in August, but by that time the by elections will be over. The by-election in Ottawa South will of course be of greatest interest to folks living here in Renfrew County because of its close proximity. I have been called upon by PC Leader Tim Hudak to assist in any way I can in that by-election. Let’s hope that when the votes are counted that Kathleen Wynne is delivered a very strong message that the people of Ontario are tired of her scandal-plagued party. 0711.R0032067653

EDITORIAL

Arts provide economic boost To some people, the arts are a superfluous subject. Pretty images, sweet sounds, drama and theatre. But art is so much more, and increasingly itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an economic driver as people attend concerts, studio tours and festivals. The second annual Renfrew Art in the Park comes to town this coming weekend, and Haramis Park is the place to be to see the works of 30 different artists, indulge the senses and enjoy family fun with a kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; zone, storytelling and musical entertainment. The Ontario Arts Council is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s well aware of the economic impact of the arts in this province. Last year (2012-13), the Ontario Arts Council supported 164 art festivals in communities across Ontario through grants totalling $5.9 million. According to OACâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recent research report, Ontario Arts and Culture Tourism Profile, the economic impact of Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s arts and culture tourism is substantial. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Specifically, arts and culture tourist spending generated $3.7 billion in gross domestic product (GDP) province-wide; 67,0000 jobs; $2.4 billion in wages; and $1.7 billion in taxes,

(including $3.1 million for Ontario municipalities) in 2010,â&#x20AC;? the report said. The 2010 study revealed 2.1 million of Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overnight tourists attended festivals and fairs that year. A couple more interesting points from the OAC report: â&#x20AC;˘ Arts festivals are important motivators for consumer travel among Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tourist market. Research has shown that art festivals have been the main reason for travel for eight per cent of all North American tourists with Ontario travel experience over a two-year period. And, among Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s North American tourists who attend arts festivals, 46 per cent indicate that the festival was the main reason for their trip. â&#x20AC;˘ Similarly, shopping or browsing at local arts and crafts studios/exhibitions is a motivator for travel for four per cent of all North American tourists with Ontario travel experience over a two-year period. And, among Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s North American tourists who shop or browse at local arts and crafts studios/exhibitions, 17 per cent indicate that this activity was the main reason for their trip. This weekend, take the time to stop by the free-admission Art in the Park. Enjoy the festival and all it has to offer.

Does council not value reading and physical activity? To the editor: I am perturbed that the McNab-Braeside council has decided to no longer provide funding after 2013 for the recreation and library services located in our neighbouring towns of Renfrew and Arnprior. We pay through various taxes for all of the services we receive from governments whether municipal, provincial or federal. Our municipality does a decent job of providing services such as fire protection, road maintenance, garbage and recycling collection and the provision of local recreation facilities such as ball diamonds, soccer fields and beach/ boat launch sites.

I wonder why council has decided that the library and recreation services located in Renfrew and Arnprior are no longer worthy of funding through the taxes we pay. Does council believe reading and physical activity are not valuable and vital to foster a vibrant, healthy and informed community? I would hope not but it would seem that is the case. What council is proposing, that only users or supporters of library and recreation services would pay for them, is just another form of taxation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a tax on reading and physical activity.

It is a form of taxation that would especially hurt those who have a limited income. For shame. If we need to increase taxes to pay for the right to enjoy these services, then be bold enough and truthful enough to say so. Some services should be paid for by all and library and recreation services belong in that group. Spreading the cost out to everyone who pays property taxes makes them more accessible to all. It seems to me that the survey question that council should be asking the residents

of McNab-Braeside is, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do you want the township to continue to fund participation in the library and recreation services available in Renfrew and Arnprior from the taxes you pay to McNab-Braeside?â&#x20AC;? And at the same time give us a clear indication of how much taxes might have to increase to continue to pay the towns of Arnprior and Renfrew for the privilege of using their facilities. That is a survey Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll answer. This survey doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ask the right question. Sincerely, Barbara White Renfrew

Historic Ottawa River should be remembered and respected To the editor: Several years ago, I married Howard Foster, leaving Orillia to reside in Renfrew. One day, as I was becoming acquainted with this part of Ontario, we drove to the bridge at Portage-du-Fort, parked the car and walked onto the bridge. As the water flowed beneath, I was reminded from school days that some of the early explorers used this river to gain further entry into a new country, and I was

Pembroke, Ontario … The deadline is fast approaching to give your input on Budget 2014! The Standing Committee on Finance is still accepting prebudget submissions from Canadians. I would like to thank all the individuals, businesses and organizations from Renfrew—Nipissing— Pembroke who shared their ideas with me in preparation for Budget 2013 and encourage local citizens to share your ideas with me. Since forming Government in 2006, our Conservative Government has strongly encouraged Canadians to participate in this consultation process. It is just another one of the ways that we are listening to Canadians and remaining squarely focused on your number one priority - jobs and the economy. That’s why we are working hard to create and implement a plan that will provide long term growth and prosperity to Canada’s economy, create jobs, and get back to balanced budgets. The ongoing reestablishment of 450 Tactical Helicopter Squadron at CFB Petawawa is a boost for growth Renfrew County. The 15 Chinook helicopters in 450 Tactical Helicopter Squadron will result in over 400 new military jobs at CFB Petawawa. The private sector is already opening new positions, with companies such as Raytheon, C.A.F. and Boeing locating related operations in the riding. Together, we have made Canada the envy of the western world - over one million new jobs created since the 2008 recession, economic growth that leads the G-7, and the lowest debt level in the G-7. We must build on this success and continue Canada’s top economic standing. The deadline for pre-budget submissions is August 5th.

Country Music Festival at Calabogie Peaks a hit Lucy Hass lucy.hass@metroland.com

Arts - Country music is enjoying a major resurgence, especially among young people, and Friday night’s opening of the Country Music Festival at Calabogie Peaks proved the future is in good hands. Leah Daniels and Jordan McIntosh rocked the grounds to open at the first annual event. Partners for the first-ever event were Ella Berman of Ottawa uses her phone to photograph herself with a huge poster of rising country music star Jordan Calabogie Peaks and DAWG FM, and the head sponsor was Class Axe Guitars. McIntosh of Carleton Place. 12 The Renfrew Mercury EMC - Thursday, July 11, 2013

Calabogie Peaks general manager of recreation and events Gayle Main reported last week that more than 5,000 people attended the event over the weekend. The family festival also attracted a large number of children who enjoyed the special kids’ zone. The biggest crowds rallied for headline acts Dallas Smith, who rocked the festival Saturday night, and Canadian Country Music Award Rising Star winner Kira Isabella who wrapped up the stage show Sunday. Plans are already in the works for next

year’s country showcase and the hunt for artists is underway. Local fan favourite, Ambush, also drew a faithful following to the event. Now Calabogie Peaks gears up for its third annual Blues and Ribfest Aug. 16 to 18. Headlining that show are Johnny Winters Friday night and Colin James Saturday night. The organizers are expecting over 20,000 music fans over the weekend. Ticket sales are already strong and people can get their tickets now at calabogieblues.com.

Jamieson said. Fundraising will play a major role in the seniors centre being successful, Kingsbury noted. It is currently a oneyear pilot project. Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant and MPP John Yakabuski also addressed the gathering and expressed their congratulations at the grand opening. Yakabuski, Jamieson and Dai Bassett of Valley Heritage Radio also sang a number or two to entertain the crowd. Anyone 50 years and over can join the golden age activity centre for a yearly cost of $15. They will receive a membership card and be allowed to participate in all programs that take place at the centre.

Renfrew Mayor Bill Ringrose said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a case where a citizens group has taken an initiative, and put something together, and they deserve a big round of applause. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping, in the future, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to walk the street, look in here, drop in, and see almost as many people in here as there are now, because, that is going to be the test. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Will the citizens of Renfrew take the opportunity to drop in, share, and be a part of something?,â&#x20AC;? he asked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping the answer will be a resounding, Yes! Meanwhile, I say to the citizens, drop in, say hello, have a coffee, participate,â&#x20AC;? the major said. A grant of $30,900 from the Ontario Trillium Foundation was received to start up the seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; centre. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The grant will allow you to hire a staff person, rent the space and buy equipment for programs in the Renfrew region,â&#x20AC;? Trillium Foundation representative Guy Jamieson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Currently, there is only one seniors recreation club in the Town of Renfrew, which limits access to programs and puts a barrier to promoting active lifestyles,â&#x20AC;? Jamieson added.

OPP report two fatalities over long weekend and numerous aggressive driving and other charges Ontario Provincial Police

It was a busy weekend for the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) as they carried out their Canada Day Long Weekend enforcement and education campaign, with a focus on aggres-

sive drivers. Sadly, the long weekend ended in tragedy for two people in OPP-policed jurisdictions. Two people lost their lives in motor vehicle collisions. However, the OPP report that there were no

fatal boating or all-terrain vehicle incidents on OPP patrolled waterways and trails. The OPP laid a total of 7,032 charges throughout the province for speeding, 98 impaired driving charges, 308 distracted driving charges and 1,593 charges were laid for seat

belt violations. While the Canada Day Long Weekend is over, the OPP is asking the public to make reducing deaths and serious injuries on roads, waterways and trails a shared priority year round.

Sergeant Stephen Charles and retired sergeant Peter Thivierge were awarded the Ontario Provincial Police Commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Commendation during a ceremony on June 7 in Barrie. Thivierge is a graduate of Renfrew Collegiate Institute and the son of Larry and Dawn Thiverige of Renfrew. During the 2009 murder case, which ended with Cathy Andrus charged in 2010 with ďŹ rst-degree murder in the death of Mike LeBlanc, Sgt. Charles acted as lead investigator, while Sgt. Thivierge was designated as ďŹ le co-ordinator. In November, Andrus pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and received a life sentence. - Courtesy The Northumberland News, with files from The Renfrew Mercury.

Township council sets up day to learn sport of pickle ball peter.clark@metroland.com

Since learning of the sport of pickle ball at the Zoomer Trade Show in Ottawa in May, Greater Madawaska Coun. Glenda McKay has been working on bringing it to Greater Madawaska Township. Equipment has been ordered for Calabogie and the Pickle Ball Association of Ontario has agreed to give a demonstration on Saturday, Sept. 14, starting around 11 a.m. Pickle ball is a combination of tennis, badminton and table tennis, and is played on a badminton-sized court with a whiffle ball about the size of a tennis ball on a solid smooth surface. Short-handled paddles larger than a ping-pong paddle are

used. The court should be 20x44 feet for singles and doubles play. The net is 36 inches on the end and 34 inches in the middle. “Six representatives from the Pickle Ball Association of Ontario, including Marcie Taylor, the Ottawa Pickle Ball Ambassador, will be coming to Calabogie to demonstrate the game and discuss the rules, etc.,” the councillor said. “The day will be divided into three groups. The first group will target adults and seniors, the second, children, and the third group will target families.” Calabogie Peaks Resort has shown an interest in getting involved with the pickle ball program, Coun. McKay added.

Coun. Karin Lehnhardt informed Coun. McKay that people in the Griffith and Matawatchan areas have also shown an interest in the game.

IN MEMORIAM

RYAN, Stephanie Her father’s little princess, Her mother’s baby girl, Her sister’s greatest confidante, Her brother’s cultured pearl. A loving, caring, smiling girl. A beauty from the start, The music she loved, her dearest friend, a country girl at heart. Life is like the giant waves, That dip and curl and spin, We sometimes get caught up in that, and feel we just can’t win. Why did those waves take her away? I guess we’ll never know. She had built a wall around herself, And let her troubles grow. And now she’s in a greater place, In God’s loving gracious arms, An angel watching over us, A precious, priceless charm. Love Mom, Dad, Cassie, Geoff and Family

THANK YOU

NOTICE TO CREDITORS

A special thank you to WZPS (Kim Shoveller) for once again, hosting Bill’s Memorial Track Meet on June 6th.

CARD OF THANKS

A BIG thank you to Natalie Spratt, Kelvin Somerville, and Doug Fraser for doing such an amazing job of organizing the days events. You continue to make a huge task look easy! A heartfelt thanks goes out to the many teachers, volunteers and retired teachers for their constant willingness to help make this day a success. Despite the rain, our young athletes had a great day!

I would like to thank everyone for their support and kindness shown to myself and my family during my sudden illness and surgery. This came on very quickly but due to the quick action of the entire medical team at R.V.H. and the Ottawa Civic Hospital my outcome is very positive. As they say patience is a virtue, I do have to learn that. I could not possibly name everyone that helped me but they know who they are. This community is now and always will be close to my heart. Thank you Kirk Anderson CLR451921

Thank you We would like to express our sincere appreciation to everyone for the tremendous support our family received during the tragedy that touched, not only our family, but so many in the great Arnprior community. Thank you for your prayers which so greatly strengthened, flowers, cards, food, phone calls, words of comfort all of which were evidence of your deep concern. We would also like to thank the young adults for their caring and respect. Thank you, each one, most sincerely, The Hughes Family

Algonquin Land Claim – Heritage and Culture Robert Potts Principal Negotiator and Senior Legal Counsel for the Algonquins of Ontario

Algonquin heritage resources represent the physical and spiritual manifestation of ancestral ways of life, traditional values and knowledge of the Algonquins of Ontario (AOO). Archaeological artifacts attest to the history of the land and the AOO who have lived on it for centuries. It is critically important that these resources be protected to preserve AOO history and traditions, while promoting awareness and education about the Algonquin people for future generations. The proposed Heritage and Culture Chapter of the Preliminary Draft Agreement-in-Principle (AIP) recognizes that the AOO have an interest in the stewardship and conservation of these heritage resources. The Preliminary Draft AIP highlights a number of elements to be reflected in a Final Agreement, including: • The establishment of an Algonquin repository to receive, protect and preserve Algonquin artifacts • Data Sharing Agreements to foster the shared interest in conserving Algonquin heritage resources • Algonquin Native Values Mapping and Cultural Planning for the Settlement Area • Algonquin Nation Trail System that recognizes and celebrates Algonquin history and culture, and promotes tourism and economic development • Algonquin language and culturally appropriate place names and public signage for culturally or historically significant sites The establishment of an Algonquin repository will mean that there will be a central place to receive, protect and preserve Algonquin arti-

facts. This will include the return of any Algonquin human remains and associated artifacts in the possession of the Canadian Museum of Civilization or the Royal Ontario Museum. Arrangements will also be made with the Canadian Museum of Civilization to lend, transfer or share Algonquin artifacts with the AOO. Additionally, agreements will be made between the AOO, Canada and Ontario to make available important Algonquin heritage resources for education, research, and cultural purposes. The Heritage and Culture Chapter also sets out that an Algonquin Burial Site Protocol will be developed and apply when a burial site is discovered within the Settlement Area. This protocol will respect traditional Algonquin burial practices and recognize that human remains and artifacts associated with human remains are to be treated with respect and with minimal disturbance. It is the preference of the AOO that human remains and associated artifacts be reinterred in the place of discovery or in another location selected by the AOO. Aboriginal archaeological resources encapsulate the cultural and historic heritage of the Algonquin people. Protecting and conserving these archaeological resources, while honouring and fostering pride in Algonquin identity and culture, will be of the utmost importance as the AOO continue on their journey of rebuilding and self-sufficiency. This column is the sixth in a series providing insights into Algonquin history, the foundation for the land claim, elements of the Preliminary Draft AIP and next steps in the journey. The next column will focus on the economic development opportunities within the Preliminary Draft AIP. For more information visit www.tanakiwin. com.

County council updated on AORS trade show steve.newman@metroland.com

News - Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost a year away, but already the County of Renfrew is spreading the word about the next Municipal Trade Show of the Association of Ontario Road Supervisors (AORS). The event is coming to Arnprior on June 4 and 5 with the help of an organizational committee chaired by Steve Boland, the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manager of operations. Its vice-chair is Chris Kunopaski, roads superintendent for Admaston-Bromley Township. Boland spoke at the June 26 meeting of county council to provide details on the preparation and importance of the annual trade show, which is expected to attract more than 2,000 visitors and about 200 vendors. The 2013 show took place in Brantford. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The two-day show provides an opportunity for both the suppliers and public works employees to share what they know, about materials and services and products that are available to the roads industry and to the public works industry, and how best to construct and maintain what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re tasked with on a day-to-day basis,â&#x20AC;? said Boland. The show also gives suppliers a forum to showcase their products. Its executive committee includes Mark Behm, director of public works in Laurentian Valley, who will look after entertainment for the show. Renfrew County business development officer Craig Kelley will look after

promotions and advertising, while Boland is overseeing logistics. The trade showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volunteer ambassador is former county councillor Ted Strike of Arnprior, while the trade show committee also includes AORS representative Gerry Haley of Laurentian Valley, treasurer Rick Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien of Golden Lake and Fred Blackstein of Pembroke. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve put together a good

executive team, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in the process of building the rest of the team,â&#x20AC;? said Boland. With the trade show representing a good opportunity to promote tourism and economic development locally, Boland added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s maximize the benefits of having the show close by.â&#x20AC;? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the first time the show has come to Renfrew County since the 1992 edition in Petawawa.

Hughie Nolan follows the footsteps of Hillary 60 years later Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

Sports - Hughie Nolan is a late bloomer, but blooming happy to be one. The Renfrew runner only ran his first marathon once he’d turned 60, but now he has run eight and he’s looking forward to running No. 9 in the Big Apple. He’ll run the prestigious New York City Marathon in November, but No. 8 was pretty special too, although he says it was less of a run and more of a severe hike because of the arduous terrain. Nolan turned 68 during his trip to run the Tenzing-Hillary Everest Marathon on the 60th anniversary of the first human ascent of the world’s highest peak. Edmund Hillary of New Zealand and mountaineer-guide Tenzing Norgay of Nepal completed their climb up Mount Everest on May 29, 1953. In making the trip, Nolan sought sponsorship on behalf of Hospice Renfrew, for whom he was the lead hiker during May’s Hike for Hospice. He raised about $4,000 with the help of sales of Hospice Renfrew tshirts provided by Tim Hortons. Nolan also brought the Hospice Renfrew flag

Hughie Nolan with a couple of young residents of Nepal. to the base camp of Mount Everest, where the marathon began May 29. “I helped to raise money for Hospice Renfrew, so I felt pretty proud to take the flag up, just because of the importance of the cause,” said Nolan of the hospice, which provides end-

of-life care for its residents. “It was the hardest marathon I’ve ever done, just the terrain and hills and elevation,” added Nolan of the 42-kilometre event. “My certificate says (it took me) 11 hours, but it was really more than

14 hours.” The time might have been a bit shorter, if he hadn’t missed one turn over a course that was partly done in the dark, rain and mist. The marathon began at 7 a.m. and finished about 9:45 p.m. for Nolan.

About 150 participants completed courses over 42 or 60 kilometres, including residents from Ottawa, Toronto, Oshawa and western Canada. The marathon began at 5,336 metres (or 17,598 feet) and finished at 3,446 metres (or 11,306 feet).

Bishop reaches A standard with 1:59.76 Wake Surf championships at Calabogie through Saturday

steve.newman@metroland.com

Sports - Melissa Bishop registered a World Championship A standard at the Victoria International Track Classic Friday evening. The Eganville middle-distance runner was the lone competitor under two minutes as she conquered both the track and her peers in a personal best 1:59.76 in the women’s 800-metre national league race. Bishop earned 16 points to finish atop the National Track League standings with 40 points. She is also currently ranked 15th in the world. Diane Cummins was second in the race in 2:01.12. The 39-yearold Canadian runner was born in South Africa. Karine Belleau-Béliveau of Montreal, Que., was third in a

World Championship B standard time of 2:01.13. The World Championship B standard combined with her second place at the World Trials in Moncton two weeks ago punches Belleau-Béliveau’s ticket to the 2013 World Championships. Bishop, who had previously clinched a berth in August’s world championships in Moscow, has been invited to a diamond league race in London, England later this month. ON A ROLL

After winning at the Toronto International Track and Field Games and twice at the national championships in Moncton last month, Bishop won national league 800metre races in Edmonton and Vancouver. The Eganville Olympian was still trying to run the championship A standard of 2:00.00.

Sports - Calabogie Peaks Resort will be the place to be today through Saturday. The Peaks is holding a first-time event for the area, the Calabogie Wake Surf Championship over the next three days. Event co-ordinator Scott D’Ascenzo says the popularity of the sport is taking off. “Wake surfing is a new and upcoming sport. It’s really developed in the southern USA and it’s coming up this way pretty quick,” he said. The benefits of it is when you fall, you don’t hurt yourself. What you’re doing is you are actually getting up to it about 10-feet behind the boat with a rope, D’Ascenzo added. “The boat’s only going about 10 miles an hour, so when you get the groove you

can let go of the rope and free surf, just like being in the ocean.” It gives you the great sensation of surfing just like on the coast, D’Ascenzo added. The wake surfing championship circuit consists of 12 events in the world this year. Events are held in Russia, Germany, Switzerland, Thailand, Mexico, Canada, and the United States, with several stops. The Calabogie event will be held on the shoreline at the Peaks. The beach front is going to have vendors and tents and boat displays. It’ll be a great festival for all ages D’Ascenzo said. A featured performer at Calabogie will be six-time world wake surfing champion Drew Danielo of Florida, as well as Canadians Dominic Lagacé and Caroline Villeneuve.

At the Edmonton International Track Classic June 29, Bishop prevailed in 2:02.14, just ahead of American Maggie Vessey, who finished in 2:02:28. Belleau-Béliveau, who was second to Bishop in the national championship final, was third in 2:02.79. The Harry Jerome Classic in Vancouver brought Bishop a convincing Canada Day win. This time she ran a then season’s best 2:00.67, compared to 2:01.29 for Laura Roesler of the United States. Vessey was third in 2:01.59 and Belleau-Béliveau fourth in 2:01.85.

Recreation promotes healthy style Day camp and special events leader

Lifestyle - The Renfrew Recreation Department has established a summer schedule of activities, camps, events and opportunities to promote a healthy lifestyle while having fun. Renfrew Recreation summer staff have a number of camps this summer focusing on staying physically active. These camps include gymnastics camp, swimming lessons, busy bees, sports camp and explorer camp. Each of these camps has a main focus for the week and they all include different ways of staying active and physi-

cally ﬁt. This is a great opportunity to get our community’s children up and moving this summer. A healthy lifestyle is not only about staying physically active, and that is why Renfrew Recreation is hosting a cooking camp this summer to encourage healthy eating and healthy choices. Children ages four to nine will learn how to cook some basic snacks and meals and will also learn the fundamentals of eating healthy, and the importance of it. A new camp introduced this summer is Busy Bees. Busy Bees is for children ages three to ﬁve and this camp promotes healthy relationships amongst

our youngest community members. This camp is a great opportunity for young children to get ready for day care or school and socialize with other children their age. Busy Bees Camp will encourage a healthy lifestyle for the children and the days will include healthy snacks, activities and sports to keep them moving. Renfrew Recreation’s support of a healthy lifestyle is for community members of all ages. All are encouraged to ﬁnd out more about these and other programs at www.town. renfrew.on.ca or visit us at the Renfrew Recreation Centre at 67 Argyle Street.

Rowat, Welch LLP battle for top spot Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

Sports - Rowat Insurance and Welch LLP finished in a deadlock at the top of the Renfrew Golf Club’s A flight division in the men’s rec league July 3. But the insurance squad earned the first-place nod on the strength of the loop’s retro-

gression tie-breaking format. The defeat didn’t hurt Welch, however. When the dust settled, it was Schwartz Drywall who dropped one ﬂight from A to B. Other teams moving down the ladder last week were State Farm Insurance from B to C, and Swatters from C ﬂight to D.

Moving up were Bushwackers to A ﬂight, Cobus Homes to B ﬂight, and Yemen Electric to C. Closest-to-the-pin winners were Cheyenne Two-Axe on No. 2, Jerry Lapierre Sr. No. 4, Kip Mulvihill No. 14 and Brian Hewitt on No. 17. Random draw winners were Des Anderson and Tim Ringrose.

RVH golf classic does it again Barb Desilets RVH Foundation director of development

Sports - Renfrew Victoria Hospital’s annual charity golf classic has scored a major hole-in-one after another record-breaking event. Organizers raised an impressive $58,000 on June 14 for the RVH Foundation, which will all be directed towards the heart health initiative and help to purchase new cardiac care equipment. Golfers had the opportunity to bid on great prizes throughout the day in a silent auction and on big-ticket items as part of a live auction during dinner. Renfrew auctioneer Ken Dillabough lent his expertise once again and helped to raise more than $9,000 in the live auction. Items ranged from a private flight over the Ottawa Valley, including dinner at Castlegarth Restaurant, to a Montreal Canadiens package, to a house party entertainment package, dinner for 10 at Tastefunatic, and two remote controlled race cars. The biggest bids of the evening went to the lucky winner of two tickets to anywhere Westjet airline flies at $2,700, and for a barbecue that looks like a tool chest donated by Protyre that sold for $2,300. Another big winner was Steve Dregas who bought tickets to the raffle that featured first prize of a new lawn tractor generously donated by long-time RVH supporters, John A. Burnett Ltd. “From all the businesses who donated, to all of the people who play every year, RVH patients benefit greatly

from your continued support,” noted Jon Pole, myFM radio president and emcee for the tournament dinner. TEAM EFFORT

Jim Lemenchick, RVH Foundation president, told the crowd that the tournament began 15 years ago as the hospital was on the brink of a major expansion project and, “Guess what is happening? The hospital is again expanding to meet the needs of our community. “An event like this cannot happen without the many volunteers and sponsors,” including the Renfrew Golf Club, RBC Financial Group, O’Neil and Company Inc. and Renfrew Home Hardware Building Centre. “Some of the greatest people in the world live right here in Renfrew,” commented Lemenchick, who is one of the original RVH golf tournament committee members, giving a nod to both Dillabough and Pole for contributing their time and talents to the evening. Lemenchick also commended Caring for Tomorrow tournament chair Patrick Cayan for his leadership. “We thought we did a good job back in the day raising money for the hospital, and Patrick came in and really showed us how it’s done.” Cayan was proud to share the big total from the day’s event at the end of the night as he thanked the participants, sponsors and donors. “This is just incredible. I don’t know how we keep breaking the record but we do. Thank you, everyone.”

Sports - It was better late than never for Frank Belanger. He knew quite awhile ago that he would be honoured with the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal. After a failed attempt or two, it became a matter of ﬁnding the time and place where he and RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski could meet. That opportunity presented itself at the grand opening of the Renfrew Golden Age Activity Centre June 28. Yakabuski was ﬁnally able to make the presentation to the long-time Special Olympics coach in front of a supportive audience who showed an appreciation for Belanger’s efforts. Commemorative medals have been presented throughout Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s 60th anniversary of the accession to the throne on Feb.

6, 1952. “With over 30 years experience as a volunteer with Special Olympics, Belanger has made a mark at the grassroots level as a coach, past program sports council chair and provincial program team volunteer,” said Special Olympics president and CEO Glenn MacDonell, who nominated Belanger. “He is a strong advocate for volunteerism, athlete empowerment and local Special Olympics programs.” Belanger has attended many provincial and national games as coach and mission staff and is a retired member of the board of directors and the program liaison for Special Olympics. Yakabuski informed the gathering that the certiﬁcate that goes along with the Queen’s Jubilee Medal is signed by Governor General of Canada David Johnston. “Each and everyone of those certiﬁcates has been personally signed by the Governor General,” Yakabuski said.

Sports - Saturday, July 20, will be a big day for local and area hockey history as the Renfrew NHA-NHL (National Hockey Association - National Hockey League) Birthplace Museum officially opens its doors. The museum, located on the second floor of the Renfrew Post Office building at 249 Raglan St., has been open to the public a couple of days a week for some time. On July 20, the grand opening takes place, and as of the following week, hours will be extended. The grand opening at the museum gets underway with a hockey game between the Renfrew Firefighters and Millionaires at 10 a.m. The game will take place on Raglan Street in front of the post office building. A piper and town crier follow at 10:45 a.m., and opening ceremonies involving Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant, MPP John Yakabuski, local representatives, and museum chair Bob Barker take place from 11 to 11:30 a.m. There will also be the unveiling of a plaque upstairs in the museum. Barker points out, the opening also falls on the day of Renfrew’s Festival of Family. People are invited in to see what the museum is all about. Draws for museum shirts will also be held every hour from noon to 4 p.m. During a stop at the museum, visitors will be made aware of how the National Hockey Association, through the efforts of such memorable characters as M.J. O’Brien, son Ambrose, and the legendary Cyclone Taylor, became the National Hockey League. People can learn of the O’Briens founding a new team called the Montreal Canadiens, and how the Renfrew

Sports - There are still some openings for the STARS Basketball Camp July 15-19 in the Grant Gymnasium at Renfrew Collegiate. The camp is under the direction of RCI Raider coaches Vicki Wilson and Jason Wilson. “We remind people that the date is different this year (July 15-19) and that there is still time to register,” Vicki Wilson noted. The camp is open for all boys and girls ages 9-14. It runs from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. “There is no experience necessary and it is a great opportunity to be active, learn about and improve at the sport of basketball, have some fun and focus on the principles of hard work and fair play. It is always a great week and we encourage all kids to participate,” Wilson added. Vicki Wilson can be reached at 613622-1200, and Jason Wilson at 613433-3343 for more information or to register. Millionaires ultimately became the Toronto Maple Leafs. Barker would like to see people get on board to support the museum, and not just in Renfrew. “We are trying to cover the Ottawa Valley. There’s a lot of (hockey) history in Shawville and Pembroke, too” Barker said. “Fortunately, we have a unique situation that presents a great opportu-

nity. The history is there (Renfrew), being the birthplace.” Barker said it would be a shame to not promote the hockey history in Renfrew and the area through the museum. “It’s something to be proud of. It’s a tourist attraction,” Barker said, adding that signs could be put up on area highways to promote the hockey museum.

“It’s a golden opportunity for the town, I would think,” he added. “I think it’ll go. It’s something to draw people in.

The Renfrew Mercury EMC - Thursday, July 11, 2013 37

(3"/% 306/%4 Knowledge is the best medicine The RVH Emergency Room nursing team and physicians need to know exactly what is in a patient’s system before providing treatment. They urge everyone to carry an up-todate list of current prescriptions with them at all times. “Fully understanding patients’ medications upon arrival at the hospital is essential to providing safe care throughout the patient journey,” explains RVH Vice President of Patient Care Services, Chris Ferguson. Medication Reconciliation is a “Required Organizational Practice” for patient safety when hospitals are preparing for accreditation. “At RVH, we are always looking at creative ways to ensure that we know all of the medications patients are taking including dose, how often and the appropriate name. This includes over-the-counter medications and vitamins,” explains Ferguson. A recent in-house audit conducted by the Emergency Department showed that 51 per cent of ER patients presented without any list of their medications. “Some people really don’t believe it’s necessary to carry this information around because we can easily access their records here at the hospital,” however that is not the case, clarifies Kim Dick, Nurse Manager of the RVH ER unit.

“No one should assume we know what they are taking.” In an emergency situation, the added time it takes to dig up that information becomes a serious patient safety issue. “Medication reconciliation is the number one aspect to make any emergency room visit a success,” comments Susan Goldsmith-Davis, RVH’s Geriatric Emergency Management (GEM) Nurse. It is very helpful to write down all existing health conditions, says Dorothy Power, RN, “We don’t ever want to have patients prescribed double medications for the same condition.” The list is also needed to prevent any new prescriptions from interacting with current medications. “Patients really do need to manage their own care,” reminds Power. MyMedRec booklets are available to the public and provided in the triage rooms to help patients keep track of their medication list. Or visit www.knowledgeisthebestmedicine.org to create your own medication record. RVH welcomes any patient suggestions on how to improve the medication reconciliation process, especially related to discharge from the hospital. If you or a family member has a comment, please forward it to Chris Ferguson at 613-432-4851 ext. 225.

MyMedRec booklets, shown by RVH RN Dorothy Power, are available to the public to record medications and other important health-related information.

Going hungry was always a fear Mary Cookâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memories BY MARY COOK

the sand before I found a carrot. Audrey pointed to the shelves down there that for generations held preserves and pickles. And there on those shelves were enough glass jars, still full of beans in brine, onions hanging in mesh bags, and sealer after sealer of preserved raspberries, crab apples and wild blueberries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now do you think we are starving?â&#x20AC;? Audrey asked. And or course, my much older, and much wiser sister was right. Just because the barrels in the kitchen were empty, there was still food aplenty to last us until the garden was ready. I could put my worries aside. And I recalled what my father always said when he was discussing the issues of the day: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a poor farmer indeed, who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t keep food on the table to feed his family.â&#x20AC;? Although not my favourite, we had as much milk to drink as we wanted. There was always a big jug of fresh milk in the ice box, and newly churned butter in glass bowls. Our hen house full of hens provided us with enough eggs for our own use, and with lots left over for Mother to peddle in

â&#x20AC;&#x153;This event is a beautiful way to begin an afternoon and we hope everyone can join us.â&#x20AC;? The tea will feature two sittings, at 11:30 a.m. and 12:45 p.m. Anyone interested should call and book their time in advance in order to guarantee their table. The price is $10 for non-members and $8 for members of the Ottawa Valley Historical Society. Admission is $4 for children under nine.

West Carleton Firefighters reunion Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

Community - The bond among those in the fire service lasts for years, even decades which is why a 40th anniversary reunion of former West Carleton township volunteer firefighters is being planned. If West Carleton, which was formed when the townships of Fitzroy, Torbolton and Huntley amalgamated in 1974, hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been absorbed into the new city of Ottawa, West Carleton, and its fire department, would have

turned 40 in 2014. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a chance to get together, see old friends, tell some stories,â&#x20AC;? said co-organizer and former volunteer firefighter David Burke. He hopes this community spirit will translate in a pronounced interest in the reunion. The eventâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s date has not been cast in stone, but could be in May 2014. Anyone at all associated with the WCFD interested in such an event should email Burke at wcfd40th@ ottawa.ca with contact information as well as former or current affiliation.

bour to give me a long talk on how I was worried for nothing. At that very moment, she pointed out, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t our bake table full of freshly baked bread? Werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there enough loaves there to last us most of the week when Mother would again bake up another batch? So there would always be sandwiches and always there would be bread pudding for dessert. And in the smoke house, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there slabs of back-bacon and roasts of pork, and sausage links, enough to feed half of Renfrew County? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stop worrying, Mary,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t starve.â&#x20AC;? And of course, my wiser sister Audrey was quite right. Soon there were sprigs of new lettuce showing in the garden. Enough to take to the dinner table and for lettuce sandwiches which I loved with a passion. Fresh lettuce, with a spattering of sugar and vinegar between two slices of buttered freshly baked bread. Now, that was a treat! One which I dearly loved. And then Audrey took me down into the dugout under the house. I had told her the last time I had gone down with the dish pan to bring up vegetables for supper, I had to dig away in

Renfrew every Saturday morning. We could expect a chicken dinner every Sunday. Mother, long before we would set out for church, would have stuffed at least two fat birds and put them in the Findlay Oval oven. If there werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough vegetables in the sand bin to tuck around the chickens, we made do with bowls of pickled beans or canned tomatoes from the cellar. Although Father never considered it a meal, Mother had what we all called her â&#x20AC;&#x153;everything goes into itâ&#x20AC;? pot of soup simmering just about constantly on the back of the stove. Hulls of vegetables, anything left over from the dinner table, scraps of meat, leftover gravyâ&#x20AC;Ś whatever she could find, went into the soup-pot. Father, most nights, when he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t too tired from dawn to dusk working in the fields, would sit down just before he fell into bed, and with a couple pieces of home made bread sponging up the soup, ate heartily of what he called â&#x20AC;&#x153;a wee bite before turning in.â&#x20AC;? No, on thinking about it, I worried for nothing. We wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t starve on the farm just because the barrels were empty. Food was all around us, and there was always Briscoeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s General Store, where we could stop for maple cookies, a couple slices of bologna, and the basics like flour, tea and sugar. All we had to do was ask for it, and tell Mr. Briscoe, â&#x20AC;&#x153;just put it on our bill, please.â&#x20AC;?

Lifestyle - The sauerkraut barrel was just about empty in the summer kitchen. It has served us well since the early fall when the whole family spent many evenings shredding cabbage to fill it to the brim. The salt pork barrel was empty too, and had been thoroughly washed and set out on the back stoop to sun-dry. The smallest of the three barrels had long since given up the last pickled herring. Even the vegetables in the root cellar were getting scarce. Now, what were we to do, I wondered? Would we starve, just like the starving Armenians Mother talked about all the time? It would be many weeks before we would have carrots and potatoes from the garden. Now I had something else to worry about. Back then, it seemed, I could find many issues to send me into a state of anxiousness. Mother said I was born with furrows in my brow, whatever that meant. And worrying if we had enough food to keep us alive was constantly on my mind this time of year. I took my concerns to my sister Audrey. She always seemed to have an answer for everything. At first she laughed out loud when I asked her if we were about to starve since all the barrels that once held our daily sustenance were empty. Then she saw that I was sincerely worried and she took me to the old swing in the grape ar-

July 1913: Thirteen railway cars derail at Castleford Lifestyle – WRECK AT CASTLEFORD: On Monday morning the freight running from Renfrew met with a mishap about a quarter of a mile this side of Castleford. Thirteen of the cars were derailed, and railway men of experience who looked upon it afterwards said they had seen many but never before such a mix-up as this one. One incident was a car of flour in paper bags. The roof was torn completely off and yet not a paper of a bag of flour was broken nor even apparently scratched. At first it was said that the passenger trains would be delayed four hours. Later on this grew to 10 hours. The expresses from the west had a long rest at Renfrew. DOMINION HOUSE AND ABERDEEN PARK SOLD: This week Renfrew properties have been changing hands; prominent citizens showing their faith in the future of Renfrew by purchasing properties that have put on the market for varying reasons; for which the “land tax” assessment by Grigg and Bolam is perhaps to some extent responsible; and to the benefit of the town. It is not going to pay to hold these vacant lands in Renfrew. Mr. M.J. O’Brien on Wednesday became the possessor of the Dominion House through Mr. C.A. Davey. And Mr. Thos A. Low has also made several purchases recently. From Mr. D.H. McAndrew he has acquired the 15 acres commonly known as Aberdeen Park, at a figure said to be over three times that which the town could have had it for 18 years ago. Mr. Low has also become possessor of the Harty lot (corner of Argyle and Elizabeth Streets) opposite the Mills store, a lot on Lochiel street near Lisgar, from Wm. Rousselle, the old Albion stables lot, and the old Dominon House sample rooms lot (corner of Hall and Plaunt). We understand that Mr. Low has made these purchases in connection with a realty company which is in the

OLGA LEWIS From the Old Files process of organization. JULY 14, 1938

FOR A FURTHER WIDENING OF IMPORTANT CORNER: A further cut is to be made into the old Dominion House site to form a better connection between Raglan and Coumbes streets. When the last cut was made it was not known that the Department of Highways would widen Coumbes street to the extent which was done. Land is paid for at the rate of one dollar per square foot, and it is expected that the new amount to be taken will be 300 or 400 square feet, giving such an amount of roadway as to reduce danger of collisions to a minimum. OLD KNIGHT HOME ON LORNE STREET: Lorne treet’s biggest brick residence, and one of the town’s largest, now being converted into a duplex, stands as a monument to the late John Knight, who built and occupied it; also was the builder of a big house which stood at the Fourth Chute until destroyed by ﬁre. Mr. Knight sold the Lorne Street residence to Thomas F. Barnet; next the late J.B. O’Brien dwelt there; then came James Fenessy, and now it is owned by Dr. James Wallace, who regards it as amply commodious for a duplex, the modern trend. JULY 12 1978

Community - Summer is fully under way and if you’re looking for a way to pry your children away from the screen and get them out of the house you can take them to Kids’ Week at the McDougall Mill Museum. Kids’ Week runs from July 14 to 20 and all children 12 and under will be admitted free! Kids’ Week is particularly special because we are ofﬁcially introducing our new Passport Learning Program. The passport provides an experience for our younger visitors that gets them involved with the artifacts and exhibits while also offering interactive activities that they must complete to receive stamps on their passport. Including the passport there will be face painting, freezies, a chance

to sign their names on the Museum Walk of Fame! Kids’ Week is not our only event that we will be hosting throughout the summer. We will be hosting our Museum Ghost Walk for its second year, on the last weekend of July (date TBD), so keep posted for details. Valley Heritage Radio’s Seniors Home Support Show will be hosting us for an interview so keep an ear out on the airwaves. The show will be aired July 16 where we will be discussing all sorts of topics on the museum. We ﬁnish off the week with some trivia, where you will ﬁnd the answer in next week’s edition of The Renfrew Mercury. “What piece of machinery was made by the Renfrew Machinery Company that was commonly associated with the Renfrew Creamery?”

Mayor Lions Ringrose. A letter to council from the commission said that: “it seems difﬁcult for the mayor to attend Commission meetings on a regular basis,” and asked for a replacement to be named. Roy Goodfellow and Ken Boldt, the elected members of the commission, explained that there is a backlog of work at the commission which requires attention by three members. Town council took no action on the matter, but referred it to the next meeting of town coun-

A soft landing for rowdy nesters Lifestyle - Corinne Sauve writes: Our nesting eastern phoebe has five chicks in her nest. The eggs didn’t hatch all at the same time which is unusual. They are at our back door under the eave on top of our thermometer. They get quite rowdy when the female comes to feed them, so I put a wooden cart with a large bunch of straw on top to catch any chick that falls or gets pushed from the nest. It would be a soft landing and I could return them to the nest. It is exciting to see and quite inspirational how the male protects the chicks when the female is away from the nest looking for food. Corinne Sauve. HAIL STORM CAUSES PROBLEMS

A week ago Pembroke had a severe hail storm with hail stones literally the size of golf balls. Since the storm Richard Brennan has seen only two male ruby-throated hummingbirds at their feeders, (usually several more). He wonders if others have noticed the same situation at their feeders, hail or no hail. A drop in temperature or a strike from a hail stone would be very damaging to hummers. Females on the nest may also have incurred injuries. Please let us know if you have noticed any changes in your hummingbird numbers. A COLOURFUL HERON

Cathy Campbell saw a little green heron fishing in a creek on their farm this week. This heron is very colourful. The head, neck and breast are maroon; the cap is greenish black as is the shaggy crest. The back is covered with greyish plumes with a greenish sheen while the wings and tail are greenish black. Bright yellow legs set off the colourful attire. Watch for this bird fishing near the shore of shallow waterways. AN ODD CHOICE

Cedric Reid feeds peanut nut butter to the birds and squirrels in a feeder in a large maple tree. One morning after packing the feeder using a plastic fork he placed the fork beside him on the arm of his chair. He was startled when a pileated woodpecker flew down and snatched the spoon and flew away with it. Was it the colour of the fork, the peanut butter on the fork or the nature of the bird? It could be all three. Have you any suggestions? Murray Reid, Cedric’s son, sent us the leg band taken from an injured blue jay. We will be sending the band to the “Bird Banding Office,

National Wildlife Research Office, Ottawa, Ont., Canada.” If you should find a band send it to the above address Scene from the and include: the number on the band, the colour if any, Hawk’s Eye date and location where found, species, age, and sex if known, whether the bird was alive, dead, injured, free or trapped.

We would like to extend our congratulations to Tammy for successfully completing her Master’s thesis. Well done. WHIP-POOR-WILLS

Terry Cunningham reports whip-poor-wills were calling, sometimes two or three at once, at Norcan Lake. Eastern phoebes are nesting on the side of the Cunningham cottage and young ravens are noisily demanding food from their parents. Loons are calling on the lake and a bald eagle has taken to perching in a tree on the small island. Terry says it is a busy, noisy place. Rita Lafrance has been hearing whip-poorwills at Coldingham Lake and Clark Smith at Douglas had a rare opportunity to see a whippoor-will perched on a tree limb just at dusk. GREAT-CRESTED FLYCATCHER

Keith and An Eady have a pair of great-crested flycatchers nesting in their neighbourhood. This large flycatcher has a crest, a pale yellow breast and belly, a long rufous tail and a robust wheerup call. It is the only cavity nesting flycatcher in North America. Kingbirds and orioles are also nesting on the Eady property. BLUEBIRDS

Mary Steele notes that five young bluebirds fledged from their nest last Saturday and a family of catbirds are feeding their young The next three or four weeks will see many young birds being fed by parents. Their begging calls can be heard all day long. Enjoy your birding. Ila and Jim Ferguson, 5313 River Road, RR 5, Renfrew, Ont., K7V 3Z8. Phone 613-432-2738 or email jamesh@nrtco. net

bers wondered if a township partnership with the Whitewater snowmobile club could be arranged to do trail upgrades. Past work on the trail, a number of years ago, did result in damage to equipment from old railway spikes left on the bed, Horton Township CAO Mackie McLaren told The Mercury. With the objective of making the trail more accessible, Horton staff has invited members of the local snowmobile club to the July 17 recreation committee meeting.

Horton council unanimously passed the planning committeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendation that the Farrellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Landing Road remain owned by Horton Township. As reported in the June 20 Renfrew Mercury, the planning committee recommended the township not sell or lease the right-of-way, which is at the Ottawa River shoreline and next to the property of Debbie Grantham and her husband. A working group of Grantham and council members Don Eady, Glen Campbell and Bob Kingsbury will also meet to ensure that the property remains properly fenced or protected while also providing some indication of the historical importance of Farrellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Landing Road. The road represents the first steps into Renfrew County during the mid 1880s settlement era. The road was also the location for the landing wharf that hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t existed for decades. Planning committee member Mae Craig was on hand for the 5-0 vote at the July 2 council meeting. The supported motion calls for Farrellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Landing to be retained as an historical site open to foot traffic only. Craig said Darlene Mask of the Renfrew Historical Society is prepared to work with the township to indicate the roadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s historical significance. The landâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dimensions are in dispute, but are about 113 feet long and 20 feet wide. Craig says there are no government grants available for such a project, but that some on-site historical indicators should develop through a Horton partnership with the historical society.

News - Much of the millennium trail, between the borders of McNab-Braeside Township and the Town of Renfrew, needs some attention. So says Burt Virgin, who lives at the far end of the former Canadian National Railway line, where he says too many elm trees have fallen down on the trail or nearby fencing and made the recreational route more of a hazard. He addressed Horton council July 2 to ask that something be done about

the trailâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition, perhaps with the help of the local snowmobile club. While itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s called a recreational trial, Virgin said one couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even take a stroller up the trail now because of its poor condition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we call it a fitness or recreational trail, I think we should make it into something that is usable,â&#x20AC;? said Virgin. The Horton resident said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a concern if the township is serious about making the railway bed accessible to bikers, fourwheelers, horse-back riders, walkers and others.

Dr. Rioux takes over Macdonald dental practice Business - Patients of Dr. Al Macdonald will notice a change at the helm of the dentist office on Prince Street. Dr. Macdonald and staff are pleased to announce that Dr. Danielle Rioux has acquired his long-time dental practice. Dr. Rioux is very excited to begin the next step of her career in Renfrew and looks forward to meeting the patients and their families. “I’m enjoying working in Renfrew so far,” Dr. Rioux said. “Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. “I’m looking forward to working with new patients and spending more time in the area,” the Carp resident said. Dr. Macdonald and his staff will be working alongside Dr. Rioux as they continue to serve their clients and their dental needs. Dr. Rioux was born in New Brunswick and raised in Nova Scotia. She was educated at the University of Monc-

ton and completed dental school in Montreal. Dr. Rioux is longing to get back to her roots and practice dentistry in a smaller community. When not working she enjoys hiking, running, fishing and loves walking her dog. Joining her is Kristie Mulvihill, a Renfrew native, to work with the dental team. Dr. Macdonald said he is very confident the transition of Dr. Rioux taking over as he eases into eventual retirement will go without a hitch. “I think I’ve left the business in excellent hands. She is very sharp and very up-to-date with all the treatment she wants to do, and eager and keen to get rolling. I’m thrilled.” Dr. Macdonald said he’ll be around the dentist’s office for awhile. “I’m in transition. I’ll be easing (toward retirement) for a few years yet,” he said.

Council gets update on observatory Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

News - Greater Madawaska council heard from Frank Roy, CEO and founder of the proposed Madawaska Highlands Observatory (MHO), slated to open on a 100-acre site near Griffith in the spring of 2016. “The observatory is a unique tourism destination, a facility that provides hands-on visitor telescopes to bring education and understanding to the splendor of your universe,” Roy said June 26. It will be home to Canada’s most powerful telescope. “We’re in the tourism business. This is going to be a huge international attraction, so it’s going to be pretty busy,” Roy added. A $15 million price tag will in-

clude a 200-seat digital planetarium, building, site preparation, outdoor amphitheatre and science telescope, and includes displays and exhibits, Roy noted. He said the observatory will create 250 jobs. Professional astronomers both globally and Canadian will be using the large telescope at the observatory, Roy said. “Our target market is global. As a business, we want to get the maximum return on our investment, and by having a global audience, we can have a maximum return on our telescopes.” Roy said what sets his telescope aside from the rest of the world is its unique design of carbon fibre materials. “It is very innovative and will have a extremely wide field of view

of 25 full moons,” Roy said. “It can do a lot of science, even though we only have about six or 700 hours of clear nights. It is mostly for survey work, looking for asteroids, that type of thing. There is a lot of demand for that in the world.” People will be able to use a 30inch telescope. If they want to pay a premium, they can use the one-metre telescope. Prices will be very reasonable, Roy said. He said the Griffith location for the facility is great because it isn’t far from Toronto, Montreal, Kingston, Ottawa and New York State. The MHO has a number of investors, many from the Ottawa area, Roy said. He said $7 million private investment equity is needed for the project. Financial projections show

PETER CLARK/METROLAND

Frank Roy, CEO of the Madawaska Highland Observatory, right, and investor and board member Greg Bell addressed Greater Madawaska council on what the observatory, scheduled to open in 2016, will mean to the area. a profit in the first year of operation, and an annual dividend return estimated at 15 per cent per year and option of a full share buy-back starting in year five. One investor, Greg Bell, who is also a board member, accompanied

Roy to Greater Madawaska’s council meeting. If the project didn’t go ahead, investors will get their money back, Roy said. “We have about a dozen endorsements from all the counties in the area, and most of the townships.”

Council has awarded its maintenance of its website contract to Renfrew’s Megram Consulting Services for $5,590, which includes GST. The request for a quote was sent out to four vendors, but only two were returned. The other quote was basically double ($10,429.95) deputy clerk Lindsey Taniwa explained. “Both quotes are higher than we were looking to spend right now, but they are in phases, so the parts that we need to do right now are within our current budget ($3,000) for this year. It’s everything we want to do,” Taniwa added. TOWN HALL MEETING

CABA (Calabogie and Area Business Association) held a town hall meeting with council at the community centre June 22. The meeting drew 18 people to have questions answered by members of council.” Mayor Emon pointed out that each councillor also addressed the gathering on their own departments for up to 10 minutes.

R0022182510

News - A request by Greater Madawaska Township resident Sharon Ferguson to operate a chip stand at 12517 Lanark Road where the tourist information centre is located appears in jeopardy. Her proposed July 2 opening was not in compliance with a township zoning by-law (22-2003), as noted by land use planner Marko Cekic. Many council members were in favour of the chip stand moving forward, which has delayed a final decision. Coun. Bruno Kierczak asked what other municipalities do in a similar situation, while Coun. Glenda McKay said, that although she respects the bylaw, having a chip stand in what is a tourist area would help attract visitors. “The gas pumps will draw you into the store; the provision of food might be a draw here,” she said. “I think we should look at this.” “The reason I choose the tourist information area is because I have been in the hospitality business and I want to promote Calabogie,” Ferguson said. Even if they don’t order fries, people will stop to get information, she added. “You’ve got a piece of property sitting there with a beautiful little building. “We can get some local artists there on a Sunday to decorate it (the chip truck) or what have you. I just think it’d be a great idea. “I’m doing it to support our community.” Ferguson said. Mayor Peter Emon suggested council get more information. He said if council agrees, they’d have to find a mechanism to place the chip truck on this property without proper zoning.

The chip truck would also require access to electricity and running water, and it would have to come from the municipality. “This would be, to my understanding, the very first time we would offer up municipal property for a commercial venture,” Mayor Emon said, adding, he would expect a push back from other members of the community on the opportunity to bid on the space. While council members have shown support, they must go through the proper channels when dealing with principle assets, the mayor added. The matter will be tabled and Ferguson will receive her answer in August.

Gracie Stewart to represent Eastern Ontario at Miss Teen Canada World Pageant Patti Dillabough

Community - Gracie Stewart, newly crowned Miss Teen Eastern Ontario WORLD will represent the Eastern Ontario region at the Miss Teen Canada WORLD pageant. Gracie will be heading to Toronto on July 13 where she will spend 10 days with 75 other delegates from across the country participating in preliminary events, touring Toronto and Southern Ontario, attending delegate activities and promoting our area and her charity Platform: Childhood Cancer Awareness. Stewart is very excited about attending the national pageant, meeting the delegates and experiencing all the week has to bring. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a once in a lifetime opportunity,â&#x20AC;? she said. One of the requirements for each national delegate is to prepare, initiate and complete

a six-week fundraising project plan for the Miss Teen Canada WORLD charity; Free The Children. Each delegate is required to raise a minimum of $400 through their fund raising efforts for Free the Children. The delegate who raises the most funds will be awarded an all expenses paid Me To We trip to Kenya, Africa. Our previous Teen Eastern Ontario WORLD delegates, Caroline Holley and Hillary MacMillan, were the recipients of the fundraising award. MacMillan will be heading off on her trip to Kenya with the Free the Children Charity on July 19. Stewart officially kicked off her six week campaign on May 19 with Tag Day at Metro Renfrew, Canadian Tire and LCBO and followed that up with a six-hand euchre tournament at the Douglas Tavern, a Lucky Ron Night at Finniganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, a nine n dine golf tournament at the

Dragonfly Golf Links and a garage sale. Gracieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s final fundraising event was a trivia night on July 4 at Coco Jarryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Each delegate participating in the Miss Teen Canada WORLD pageant is required to keep a blog of her activities, charity platform and events, etc. You can follow Gracieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blog at www.missteeneasternontario. com. Be sure to visit and read Gracieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Childhood Cancer charity platform series entries, highlighting some amazing young cancer heroes. Gracie has received high praise from the Candlelighters, Childhood Cancer Support Inc. organization for her Childhood Cancer Awareness Blog series, as well as recognition from several childhood cancer parents. Awareness is the initial step to getting others involved in the fight against Childhood Cancer and Gracie is hoping to educate

a wider audience with her blog series. The delegate who reports the highest blog activity will receive a special award. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s show our community support by visiting Gracieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blog and commenting on her efforts. You will also have the opportunity to vote for Gracie Stewart, Miss Teen Eastern Ontario World 2013 in the week leading up to the pageant for the Peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Choice Award. Our community support last year, put Hillary MacMillan, Miss Teen Eastern Ontario World 2012, in the Top 3 of the online vote which was amazing! Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s do the same for Gracie this year! More information on the voting process will be made available next week. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s see if we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t out-vote Newfoundland, who has an unbeaten track record for the Peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Choice Gracie Stewart will be representing the region at the Award.

Hair! meets Green Gables meets Corner Gas in new musical Stone Fence Theatre

Arts - The title of Stone Fence Theatre’s new musical comedy There’s Hippies Up the Line!, which opens in Eganville at the Community Centre

July 16, might suggest “Woodstock Nation.” In fact, the show is a classic Canadian story about the diversity and acceptance that make up “the Canadian mosaic.” Hippies! is the latest from Stone

Clayton Bellamy at Neat Cafe July 14 Arts - JUNO Award-winner Clayton Bellamy is making a stop in Burnstown to perform at The Neat Coffee Shop on July 14. The singer/songwriter recently released his fourth solo album, Five Crow Silver (MDM Recordings Inc. Universal Music Canada) on June 11, featuring his current single, Goodbye America. A member of platinum-selling band The Road Hammers, Bellamy hosts an array of special guests on the new record including Bobby Keys (The Rolling Stones, The Who, Eric Clapton), Tom Wilson (Blackie and the Rodeo Kings) and Garth Hudson (The Band). Prior to his Neat visit he will be performing in Nashville, at the Calgary Stampede and in Hamilton, Toronto, Kemptville and Campbellville.

Fence Theatre, a 10-year old heritage musical theatre located high in the hills of the Ottawa Valley. It performs most of its shows in Eganville but was born in Killaloe and Wilno, the epi-centre of Ontario’s back-tothe land movement in the 1970s and where much of the show’s action takes place. In fact, the show will be travelling later in summer and fall to Barry’s Bay, Killaloe, Renfrew and Micksburg. In these hills, populated as they are with a collection of from-aways, locals and other folks, Stone Fence Theatre has emerged as a unique Canadian production company and a mainstay of local culture and entertainment. While hippies have provided comic writers with fodder for years, There’s Hippies Up the Line! is unique because it looks at the relationships that developed between the dreamy, idealistic newcomers and their hard-bitten, impoverished neighbours. Based on true stories collected over several years, Hippies! satirizes both “hippies” and “locals” in a way the authors – one a former “hippie” and one a “local” – hope is even-handed

music, language, or other differences. In understanding our differences, we grow in love and appreciation for things that are different from what we know.” Theilheimer moved to Killaloe in 1974, while his writing partner Zomers grew up on a farm in Brudenell. They have worked together on projects since the 1980s when both were stringers for the Ottawa Citizen. “We often competed for space in the paper at the time,” says Theilheimer. “It turned out we had a lot in common. That’s pretty much the theme of the show too.” Hippies! features 13 original new songs in a variety of styles including four original old-time fiddle tunes, a jazz waltz, two gospel numbers, country, folk, rock and reggae. The mixture of roots music styles reflects the diversity of the local artistic community as a result of the influx of different groups over the years. The outstanding pit band features champion fidders Emma and Will March, folk veteran Ken Ramsden, multi-instumentlists Colin Wylie, Peter Brown, and Theilheimer himself.

and hilarious. At the same time, it traces the development of bonds as people from both groups become part of the bigger tapestry of life in a tight-knit rural community. The musical was written by company producer/musical director Ish Theilheimer of Golden Lake and Johanna Zomers of Eganville, and directed by Chantal Elie-Sernoskie of Barry’s Bay, with musical contributions from jazz pianist Peter Brown and Fiddle World icon Carol Kennedy. “It’s rewarding too to pay homage in this show to a lot of friends in this show,” says Theilheimer, “as well as to the communities that accepted and welcomed us despite our funny looks and ideas. This show is a love story for the Valley in its twilight and for its amazing people.” Elie-Sernoskie appreciates the diversity theme. “Back then, the newcomers were considered different from the local folks who lived here, but now, yesterday’s newcomers are a big part of the local scene,” she says. “Having a French father, an English mother and a Polish-Kashub husband, I believe in the strength of diversity whether it be in culture,

Community - As president of the board of directors, I am pleased to report on activities of the past year. This past ﬁscal year 20122013 has been one of learning as the various regional and provincial projects have been rolling-out and decisions have had to be made to facilitate these roll-outs. With the addition of SharePoint and CIMS-HR to our vocabulary we have been learning about the technology required to support these many projects. Learning about grants and funding agencies was on the table as we supported Nellie Kingsbury and Karen Abbott

TRILLIUM GRANT

This grant will allow the Seniors Centre to receive funding for one year to determine whether a Seniors Centre is viable in Renfrew. This year provided us with an opportunity to expand our space into the next door unit and arrangements were made to take over the space as of April 1, 2013. The greatest challenge facing our agency continues to be resources – both people and ﬁnancial. With zero per cent funding increases, our dollars need to go further to cover costs and with increases in demand for services; we are seeing an increase in

Community The Ontario SPCA Renfrew County Branch Friends for Life! walk-athon raised more than $30,000 in support of the Ontario SPCA’s mission to facilitate and provide for province-wide leadership on matters relating to the prevention of cruelty to animals and the promotion of animal welfare. About 150 participants enjoyed a fun day in the sun and walked, rolled or strolled in support of the mission to prevent cruelty to animals. “We’re thrilled with the support we received,” says branch manager Tracy McElman. “Our community has helped us to succeed and surpass our $20,000 goal,” she says. The Ontario SPCA is more dedicated than ever to stop cruelty in Ontario and help more animals have a voice. The Ontario SPCA is the leading animal welfare organization in this province dedicated to providing shelter to thousands of abused, neglected and abandoned animals each year. Over 1,300 animals come to the Ontario SPCA Renfrew County Branch each year in need of our help.

According to the town’s extensive Dillon Report on Renfrew infrastructure, the Queen Street work is the next priority for water, wastewater and road rehabilitation.
