Plaunt Street South in Renfrew is going to get some much-needed rehabilitation.

Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant and MPP John Yakabuski joined Town of Renfrew officials on Thursday, July 9 at an event on Plaunt Street to announce the $1.9 million project, which is being funded through the Canada-Ontario Small Communities Fund.

Municipal, provincial and federal governments will each contribute $633,685 towards the project, which will see 500 metres of Plaunt Street, from Hall to Railway avenues, rehabilitated. Infrastructure that will be rehabilitated includes replacement of a century-old watermain, sanitary/storm sewer system, asphalt and sidewalks.

Renfrew Mayor Don Eady welcomed everyone to the event and said it was one of the best days he’s had since becoming mayor.

“This is a very, very good day for the Town of Renfrew,” said Eady. “We worked very hard at trying to get partnerships together. I think this speaks very highly of our staff and how we put this together.”

and this will be another way through it, he said.

“It’s also good for developers in the town,” he said. “It’s showing good progress. When you want things to happen in your town, you show you have good streets.”

Eady said he was pleased to see representatives from a number of local businesses and organizations, including the Renfrew Downtown Business Improvement Association, Renfrew Industrial Commission, Renfrew Victoria Hospital, Sunshine Coach, and Renfrew and Area Chamber of Commerce.

“I want to congratulate the Town of Renfrew for making the application that was successful. This is a very, very good project,” said Yakabuski. “I’m looking forward not only to the beginning of work next year but also when the job is completed having a nice smooth ride down Plaunt Street and knowing those pipes in the ground aren’t 100 years old anymore.”

Partnerships are vital when it comes to municipal infrastructure, he said.

“Providing new infrastructure to our communities is essential and the reality is that municipalities on their own – projects of this magnitude – they just can’t do them on their own,” he said.

Luxury tented camp and spa planned for former Storyland property Sherry Haaima

sherry.haaima@metroland.com

If queen-size beds, digital check-ins and gourmet s’mores made with homemade marshmallows and graham crackers sound like your kind of camping, you’ll be excited about a new Ottawa Valley business venture.

As early as 2016, residents and visitors could have an opportunity to try ‘glamping’ at the former Storyland property on Storyland Road.

Glamour camping or glamping is increasing in popularity and Nicole Laframboise, owner of the former theme park property, recently spoke to the Horton Township planning committee about her plans for the site.

Elements Luxury Tented Camp and Nature Spa will feature paddle boats, mountain bike and hiking trails, reading nooks complete with hammocks and a yoga studio.

Elements will also provide a unique venue opportunity for musicians and organizations, said Laframboise.

With an eye to opening in

submitted

The former Storyland property is being transformed into Elements Luxury Tented Camp and Nature Spa, which is expected to open in 2016.

June 2016, she plans to begin with four units in 2016, increasing the number each year until a total of 47 is reached.

As a commercial representative for Wilson Investments, she recently oversaw the design and construction of the Ontario Power Generation building in Renfrew. Having worked closely with a number of successful businesses in the past, she will use what she’s learned to get Elements off the ground.

Laframboise has owned the 89-acre property since the fall of 2013, but didn’t know right away what exactly she was going to do with it.

“I bought it because I knew it was an excellent property,” she said. Because it is already zoned commercial tourism, the site is ideal for a specialized camping resort.

“Tourism is on the county’s mandate right now,” she said.

Job creation is among the many benefits of the proposed

tent resort, she said.

For six months after the purchase, which took place shortly after an auction to disperse of Storyland’s various statues and other items, she worked on cleaning up the property.

A friend mentioned glamping, and the idea for Elements was born.

“I went ‘Huh, that works for me,’” she said. She’s not a huge fan of the word glamping, a concept that has been

popular in places like British Columbia for quite some time.

“For people who don’t know, glamping is glamorous camping. It’s a luxury tented camp or outdoor hotel. What I’m trying to do is marry up the two ideas of hoteling and camping.”

And Laframboise intends to hone that idea.

“I’m trying to do not only what the standard has been but bring in my own ideas,” she said.

New technologies and creature comforts, including hassle-free digital check-ins and information updates, are being explored.

“We’re looking at stuff that even the Four Seasons isn’t doing,” she said. “Things we can do to sort of create a more special feeling for everyone, to really give them a five-star experience.”

The old roller building has been shingled, painted and converted into a yoga studio and it’s already piquing interest.

“We’ve had some interest from southern Ontario and

even Mexico as a possible yoga retreat location,” said Laframboise.

An outdoor conference centre is planned for another of the buildings. Eventually, the hope is to construct a kind of Scandinavian bath on the property, hence the ‘spa’ in the business’ title.

“We’ll have an outdoor TV, Playstation, Xbox,” she said. “It’s not your traditional camping.”

As far as the tents themselves, they will be spaced far apart.

“They’re not going to be right beside each other. And they’re large. The smallest one I have is 14-by-16 feet,” she said.

“These rooms come furnished like a hotel. You open the door and see white linens, wood furniture and luxurious house coat.”

Queen-sized beds, antique furniture and all-natural amenities such as organic shampoos, conditioner and bug spray will round out the experience,” said Laframboise.

War Amps safety co-ordinator visits Lions Peter Clark

the age of 18,” Jordan explained.

“If you are born missing a limb, like myself, lose a limb in an accident, or loose a limb due to a medical cause, it doesn’t matter how it happened, if you are under the age of 18, you can en role in the child amputee CHAMP Program and you will receive financial assistance for artificial limbs.”

The limbs certainly add to your independence, Jordan said. But they don’t come cheap. Jordan showed one limb to the Lions that costs about $25,000. “There is no way I would ever be able to afford this arm without the help of the War Amps,” he said.

Jordan aired a couple of videos involving kids on the PlaySafe Program. It is a kids to kids approach. It started in 1978.

Each year, they do a public service announcement with one of the teams in the Canadian Football League.

“The CFL has been a great partner with the War Amps,” Jordan added.

War Amps receives no funding from the government. They also spend less than 10 per cent on administration.

Jordan is proud to be associated with them. “It’s the only organization of its kind in the world. I wouldn’t be Peter Clark/Metroland the same person I am today without War Amps safety events co-ordinator James Jordan displays a couple of the War Amps,” Jordan said. artificial arms from what he calls his ‘hand bag’.

R0013315337

The Renfrew Lions took in an informative talk from War Amps safety events co-ordinator James Jordan at the club’s President’s Night June 24 at the Renfrew Golf Club.

Jordan was born in 1984 minus his left arm below the elbow and was enrolled in The War Amps Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program when he was six months old.

Through CHAMP, he received financial assistance for artificial limbs, and became increasingly active with CHAMP as a junior councillor.

In 2007, Jordan began his employment at The War Amps, and today, the Ottawa native spreads the association’s safety message across Canada by hosting and organizing safety exhibits, public speaking, conducting presentations throughout the public school system, and by attending parades as the on-site co-ordinator.

He is also involved at regional CHAMP seminars where he leads seminar sessions and offers support to younger Champs.

War Amps started following the First World War, Jordan pointed out.

Many surviving veterans returned home minus an arm or a leg.

“Let’s fast forward 20 years to

the Second World War,” Jordan said.

“Thousands and thousands of men were amputees from the First World War, and with 20 years experience as amputees (they) were able to help those from the Second World War.” The War Amps Association grew as a result.

“Our philosophy back then, and it still stands today, is amputees helping amputees,” Jordan said.

In 1946, the Key Tag Service was launched as a sheltered workshop where war amputees could not only work for competitive wages, but also provide a service to Canadians that would generate funds for the organization. In 1972, the address label service was introduced and has benefitted many Canadians as more than 1.5 million sets of lost keys have been returned to their owners.

“If someone is walking down the street and they pick up a set of keys, they see the War Amps key tag on it.

Most people in Canada will know that they can just drop it in any mailbox, and it’ll get back to your door.”

Jordan said.

The CHAMP Program was created in 1975 and has now been in existence for 40 years.

“What the CHAMP Program does is provides financial assistance for artificial limbs for children under

Residents unite in protest over route of proposed Hall Avenue extension sherry.haaima@metroland.com

A group of Hunter Gate subdivision residents is concerned with the route the proposed extension of Hall Avenue is taking.

The proposed extension has Hall Avenue continuing and running adjacent to the backyards of a number of Otteridge residents.

And while the homeowners knew eventually the area, which is now just fields, would be developed, they expected single family homes, not the proposed collector road and sound barrier walls.

Otteridge Avenue resident David Anderson is among those concerned with the plan. “This proposal includes a high-speed collector road and it will slice our residential community in half. It also includes a large round-a-bout at Froats Street. Its purpose is to siphon off traffic from Highway 17 via O’Brien, Wrangler and Gibbons roads behind Walmart. It will also take traffic off Gillan Road coming up from Hall Avenue,” explained Anderson.

“The homeowners of Otteridge Avenue are very concerned and see this proposal or any similar proposals as a direct threat to property values and to the quality of life in our homes.

This issue affects all of us,” said Anderson.

The homeowner group was expected to make an appearance at a public meeting being held Tuesday, July 14 (after press deadline) to make their concerns known. They have also filed their concerns with the town, developer, real estate representatives and other levels of government.

Many of the members R0013234340

of the informal residents group feel they were misled.

“Lots were purchased, expensive homes were constructed on the understanding that one road would be constructed behind the properties and separated from their property by single family homes,” say the residents in correspondence.

They maintain the proposed road’s route will increase light, noise and traffic pollution, reduce the quality of life, have a negative effect on the aesthetics of the neighbourhood and reduce appraisal evaluations.

A collector road open to commercial traffic, including transport trucks, is not what they had in mind for their back yards, say landowners.

“The big thing was going to be the noise and why would they put a busy collector road in the middle of a subdivision,” said Anderson.

The residents have circulated a petition.

“The residents of Hunter Gate subdivision, the undersigned, do not want a Hall Avenue collector road, do not want roads abutting backyards and do not want a round-a-bout intersection at Froats Street. We do want the Hall Avenue extension road to be returned to a residential, traffic-only road, a single road, 50 km or less road, a road which includes speed control and a road that will allow one lane of parking without affecting traffic,” says the petition statement.

“We are trying to make this an issue with the mayor and council who can, if they see fit, direct their engineering department to have a look and fix this for the taxpayers,” said Ander-

The Experience You Need…

The Respect You Deserve

son Of 82 total properties that organizers reached, 73 homes were in favour of the petition statement.

The 89 per cent support indicates the matter is something of which town officials should take note, say residents.

And while notice of the meeting was advertised and other formal notices put out by the town, the residents feel the town fell short of advising the public.

“This is not a one-person effort, it’s a community effort,” said Otteridge Avenue resident Jack Groenewoud.

“When we first got into these houses here we were all told nothing was going in here for at least another 10 years,” said Groenewoud. “It’s just ludicrous you’d have a road in the back and the front. We spent a lot of money on these homes.”

A 10-foot-high sound barrier wall is proposed for the edge of the Groenewoud’s property line.

“We were all under the assumption that behind us, in 10 years, would be single family homes and a residential street,” said Ellen Groenewoud.

Two receive Rotary Club’s Paul Harris Fellowship award Renfrew Rotary Club

Submitted

Randy Penney, the chief executive officer of Renfrew Victoria Hospital, at left, was recently honored by Renfrew Rotarian president, Dennis Yakaback with the Rotarian Paul Harris Fellowship Award. This is an award recognizing contributions to our community. for RVH. Not only is this a rarity with hospitals but when you consider that the budget is close to forty million dollars with over five hundred staff, it clearly is a managerial feat.

In addition, he has overseen

many other improvements of the hospital during his tenure, some of which include: a major increase in diagnostic services including ultrasound, CT scans, digital mammography, radiology, bone density,

sleep lab, and cardiopulmonary services; a dialysis department; an oncology department; addiction treatment services; diabetes education; a regional assault care program; a major expansion of emer-

serving of being recognized as a leader in our community. He was an active member of Renfrew Rotary for many years and was president of Renfrew Rotary when he died in 2009.

His career spanned over 32 years as a pilot within the Canadian Air force. He flew trainers such as the Tutor, The T-38 and the CF-5 Freedom Fighter. Later he worked teaching others to fly with the renowned Snowbirds and commanded posts in Europe and Canada. General Thibault’s expertise as a leader was harnessed on the home front in his later years and the energy, ideas and enthusiasm that he brought to our local club was exemplary of selfless giving.

Both recipients of the Rotary Paul Harris Fellowship Award have offered their visions to Renfrew. The generosity of their time, energy and talent has uplifted our community on many levels.

Renfrew Rotary is grateful for their leadership and recognizes that this award is but small payback for all they have done that has benefited us all.

R0173307829

Renfrew Rotary recently honored two leaders in the Renfrew community with a prestigious award, the Paul Harris Fellowship Award.

This award recognizes Rotarians or community leaders who demonstrate constant service to the community or other humanitarian causes.

With such an award, Renfrew Rotary will make a $1,000 US contribution to the worldwide Rotary Foundation in this person’s name.

One of the recipients of the Paul Harris Fellowship Award is a well know visionary in Renfrew, Randy Penney. As the chief executive officer of the Renfrew Victoria Hospital, Penney has been an advocate for improving the health care of our community for upwards of 25 years. Having a world class hospital in Renfrew is a bonus to all of us, because of the quality care for ourselves, our friends and our families.

Penney’s ability to lead has been reflected time and time again in a balanced budget

gency and ambulatory care with 27 different clinics now in place with visiting specialists; assisted living services; a palliative care unit; and a fully utilized professional medical building with another to be constructed in the next 12 months.

Penney’s management in health care is patient centric with an underlying focus on improving systems of access for people within the surrounding community. To help accomplish this, partnerships and alliances have been created on many fronts. This focus of best practices has enabled RVH to gain an Accreditation of Standards, a coveted level of excellence within the health industry. In keeping with Penney’s commitment to uplift all hospitals, he has become a senior member of Accreditation Canada, helping to set standards not just for Canada but also the world.

The second recipient of Rotary’s Paul Harris Fellowship Award was General Claude R. Thibault. Although Thibault is no longer with us, he is de-

Elements designed to have low environmental impact Continued from page 2

The white canvas tents are actually Arctic tents, good for use all-year round, but for now the plan is to open Elements for June, July and August.

“I’ll see what the reception is and keep broadening the spectrum and opening times,” she said.

“When you devise anything that’s new, always be flexible with your plan.”

Elements will feature seven to 10 kilometres of mountain bike trail, something that this area could use, said Laframboise.

She’s pleased with how the project is coming together and notes the environment is front and centre.

“The whole premise of this development is be low-impact environmentally,” she said. “I want this to be breathable.”

The canvas tents will be mounted on wooden decking and she is working with a local plumber to explore options, including rainwater collection

and solar blankets to heat water, for outdoor showers adjacent to each unit.

Supporting local business and highlighting the area’s natural beauty are focuses.

“We feel strongly about keeping it local, keeping it Canadian,” she said. “The whole point of doing this is to expose Canada for its luxurious side.

We do have it, it’s just lesser known.

“We’re reinventing the traditional Canadiana – instead of the Adirondacks, dark reds and greens – we’ve got whites, light blues, light sages. It’s very airy, very Zen,” she said.

Laframboise is paying attention to even the finest detail.

An exclusive Elements essential oil has been created.

The scent, named White Pine, is blended from eight essential oils, she explained.

Custom candles and hand scrubs are being planned.

Music events and perform-

6 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, July 16, 2015

ers will go part and parcel with Elements, said Laframboise.

Organizations, including the Ottawa Chamber Music Festival, have expressed interest in coming to check out the site as a possible future venue.

And while each unit will have its own personal firepit, the proposed community firepits will be ideal to showcase the work of local acoustic guitarists and others.

Next steps

When she made her presentation to the planning committee, members advised Laframboise that a site plan agreement would be required and should be submitted for their review as soon as it is prepared.

She is working with consultants to prepare the site plan and continues to work to prepare the property.

“We all assumed Hall Avenue was coming straight out and to Canadian Tire,” said Ellen Groenewoud.

Hunter Gate subdivision is a 300lot development that is halfway to completion.

Renfrew development and works director Mike Asselin explained the project is being planned using the municipal class environmental assessment process, which is required for infrastructure upgrades that benefit more than one subdivision.

“The municipality has examined the need for an additional collector road that runs parallel to O’Brien Road and the feasibility study showed a parallel route is required. That initiated the Hall Avenue extension,” said Asselin.

The route was selected last year through the phase one and phase two municipal class environmental assessment.

“Now the town is proceeding with phase three, which looks at the detailed engineering and alignment,” said Asselin.

“The process is designed to engage the community and the public to provide their input into the project.

We’re interested in hearing people’s concerns; that’s what the process is designed for.”

There were two public information centres held to date and the town added the third one for July 14 to ensure concerns were heard.

“The next step will be to have our consultant come up with a recommendation considering all of the input for a project that benefits the community in the best possible way,” said Asselin.

“The routing was selected in a previous phase, so if there are opportunities to mitigate impacts, that’s what this part of the process is.”

Construction of the extension will depend on the timing of the future phases of the Hunter Gate subdivision.

“There’s already one small part of it built already. Another phase is being proposed to advance this summer, but construction in the area of these concerned residents may be some years on,” said Asselin.

He noted there are pros and cons to the proposal.

Among the pros is previously there were a great number of driveways entering onto the Hall Avenue extension, so this proposal reduces that and the potential for accidents.

Adrift in a distracted world

W

elcome to the lazy, crazy days of summer.

The silly season began in earnest last week when a couple “forgot” they had put their baby in a small inflatable crib in the water at a beach in Turkey. The 10-month-old child then drifted a kilometre out to sea.

The couple apparently didn’t even realize the tot was missing until other beach-goers noticed her bobbing on the horizon.

The Coast Guard had to be called to rescue the child.

Social media, of course, exploded and the couple received countless bonehead of the week nominations.

Several commentators speculated the parents had been distracted because they had been texting or otherwise enamoured with their cell phones. It hasn’t been confirmed, but it’s not an unreasonable theory.

Local OPP have been zeroing in on cell-phone-using (abusing) drivers for some time now, including an enforcement blitz to start the summer. Police have also started to express another

safety concern about cell phone use.

Distracted parenting is joining distract driving on the radar of police and other safety proponents.

How many times have you seen young parents texting or talking on their cell/smart phones as they push baby carriages down busy sidewalks and through congested intersections?

It’s a common sight to see youngsters splashing happily in the water as their parents on the beach concentrate on their hand-held devices, oblivious to any possible danger that may arise.

Like distracted driving, it only takes a moment of inattention for disaster to strike. Alcohol is usually the main culprit in summer mishaps. It’s still a problem, but other distractions are catching up fast.

Fortunately, the drifting baby story had a happy ending.

But other distracted parents might not be so lucky.

Don’t be deterred from embracing the great outdoors, but do it safely.

Turn off your phones and give your children some undivided attention.

It’s summer. Make the best of it.

Shame on the Liberals for having the unmitigated gall of fooling voters again.

Shame on the Conservatives for presenting us with a non-electable party leader.

Shame on the NDP for lending support to a corrupt government during the past two years.

Shame on those who voted Liberal for saddling us with an entitled government for the next four years.

Shame on all Ontarians for allowing the Liberal government to create a multi-billion dollar debt. (at almost $20,000 for every man, woman and child, Ontario’s debt is Greater than California’s).

RCAF 3 Wing Zweibrucken 50th Changes affecting doctor recruitment Anniversary BRAT Reunion this fall LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

On June 26 I had the opportunity to meet with the Eastern Ontario Wardens’ Caucus to outline how the provincial government’s imposed changes to doctors and medical services are impacting patient care.

I wish the presentation wasn’t necessary, but it is important municipal leaders understand how the changes could impact the family physician recruitment efforts they have undertaken to attract doctors to their communities.

At a time when there are more than 800,000 Ontarians still without a family doctor and 140,000 new residents are being added into our health care system every year, the government is restricting the ability of family doctors to join

team-based models of practice – the model in which new doctors are currently trained.

Doctors may only join teams in communities the Ministry of Health and LongTerm Care have identified on a list as areas of high physician need.

A number of communities in Eastern Ontario are on the list – Port Hope, Prescott, and Pembroke, for example.

The problem is many people mistakenly believe if their community is on the list it will make attracting doctors easier. With the province cutting from 40 to 20 the number of physician who can join these models, it will not be easier to attract doctors to your community.

There are nearly 200 com-

munities across the province on the list so South Dundas and Smith Falls are competing with these other communities – places like Kitchener and parts of Toronto – for muchneeded family doctors. The reality is there is a need for family doctors in communities across the province – whether they are on the list or not.

Placing restrictions on doctors is not how we are going to attract new family doctors to care for the hundreds of thousands of people who don’t have one Everyone in Ontario deserves that their health care be a priority.

Dr. Mike Toth, President Ontario Medical Association

The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, July 16, 2015 9

NDP would reverse loss of home mail delivery: candidate

Liberal Party of Canada presents agenda for environment and economy environment by investing in clean technologies, creating clean jobs and investment while protecting wildlife and waterways. In the process, we will phase out fossil fuel subsidies, suspend admission fees to our National Parks for the 150th anniversary of Canadian Confederation, and renew our commitment to the protection of the of waterways abandoned by the Conservatives.

“The environment has suffered greatly during the Harper decade. As Canadians, we cannot afford to let this inaction continue – the cost is too high,” said Lehoux. “Several of our cherished local waterways lost protection under the Conservative Government, including The Madawaska River, The Mississippi River, Calabogie Lake, Golden Lake and even parts of The Petawawa River. This is unacceptable.”

make things better.”

McCarthy said the NDP is “standing with mayors and Canadians across Canada and telling the Conservatives and Canada Post that cutting services, reducing rural post office hours, hiking postal rates and forcing community mailboxes is the wrong approach. Canada should not be the only country in the G7 without home delivery.”

Recently, Liberal Party of Canada leader Justin Trudeau presented a new plan for real change that will create clean jobs, grow our economy, and protect our environment.

“Stephen Harper refused to take meaningful action on climate change, slashed environmental protections, and allowed other countries to take the lead on creating new clean jobs,” said Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke Liberal candidate Jeff Lehoux. “Our plan will ensure that the people in RenfrewNipissing-Pembroke can tap into the vast economic opportunities of our environment and create the sustainable prosperity families deserve. Our unique riding already has some success stories in this industry and is poised for growth that will create much-needed jobs in Renfrew County.”

The Liberal plan will deliver real change for our

Corporation. However, Lisa Raitt, the Minister responsible for Canada Post, stated directly in the House of Commons, that “the Government of Canada supports Canada Post’s five-point action plan” – the plan to end doorto-door delivery, he pointed out.

The NDP under Tom Mulcair has made a clear commitment, and he made it early, to restore service, said McCarthy. “The NDP would actually

R0013372177_0716

Canada Post shouldn’t be allowed to use “flawed” reasoning to eliminate good jobs by getting rid of door-todoor mail delivery, says Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke federal NDP candidate Dan McCarthy.

In an open letter, McCarthy said while the Conservatives support an end to the service, an NDP government, if elected, will have it restored and improved.

He noted that Renfrew is first on Canada Post’s “hit list” for residents of the riding. “And it will not be the last.”

Despite being profitable overall for 17 of the past 19 years, Canada Post has decided to “reduce services and increase profits at the expense of the public,” said McCarthy.

Instead of delivery to your door, it’s “here’s the mail, come and get it,” he said.

He maintains Canada Post’s understanding of consultation is equally flawed.

The corporation will accept “your views on the placement of the community mailbox you don’t want. … just don’t expect to have input on the real issue – balancing its profit side (parcel post, courier services, etc.) with its service mandate as a Crown Corporation (delivery to your door),” he said.

McCarthy said Canada Post’s guarantee that current employees will not lose their jobs rings hollow. “When they’re gone, the jobs will be gone.”

Good jobs with good pay and benefits are critical to the local economy,” he said. “And with stubbornly high unemployment – especially youth unemployment – getting rid of good jobs sends the wrong message to workers – young and old – seeking employment: ‘Corporate profits over good jobs.’”

McCarthy said that the riding’s Conservative MP, Cheryl Gallant, takes the position that government should not interfere with the day-to-day operations of a Crown

New families can register online

Report From Parliament:

Get the registration process started for your child for the 2015-2016 school year without leaving your home.

New students to the Renfrew County District School Board (RCDSB) can now start the registration process online. Families with students joining a Renfrew County public school for the first time, Kindergarten to Grade 12, can start the registration process from their desktop computer, laptop, tablet or even smartphone.

“This new process is another example of how the RCDSB continues to support families,” said Cathy McCann-Kyte, Superintendent of Education – Early Learning and Operations.

“The online registration for new students to our board makes registration easy and accessible for families. This process will also enhance and streamline the communication process between new families and our schools.”

The RCDSB has partnered with SRB Education Solutions to allow parents to start the registration process from the comfort of their own home. While parents will still have to come in to either the school or board office to show proof of residency, birth and other documentation, their children will already be in the system and the visit will be more streamlined and much quicker.

Registration forms are completed and submitted online with an email receipt that the submission is being processed.

For more information or to register a new RCDSB student, visit the board’s website at www.rcdsb.on.ca

Illusionist will Raise the Roof in Calabogie Aug. 2

Elizabeth Jost Couture Raise the Roof

On Sunday, Aug. 2, Calabogie puts the ‘fun’ in fundraising with a magic show featuring the incredible magic and comedy of Illusionist Michael Bourada.

The show will go on, rain or shine, under the protection of the new roof at the Calabogie Community Rink, 574 Mill St. in Calabogie.

The evening begins at 5:30 p.m. with a barbecue and music by awardwinning Valley musicians, the Felhaver Family.

At 7 p.m, Michael Bourada takes to the stage to amaze and mystify you with his magic. Join us again after the show for more musical entertainment.

Admission is $20 for adults and $15 for kids under 15. There will also be a food concession and cash bar. Remember to bring your lawn chair.

For tickets or more information, email icedream34@gmail.com or call 613-432-7578. All proceeds will be donated to the Calabogie Raise the Roof campaign.

The Calabogie rink roof is part of a multiphase project to enhance recreational infrastructure in Greater Madawaska Township and give our citizens and visitors a safe, all-weather place to enjoy a wide variety of fitness and leisure activities.

Besides winter sports, including ice hockey and skating, the roof plays host to the annual Community Spirit Bogie Style ball tournament, fair, and community supper. Basketball, rollerblading, ball hockey, power walking and other events round out the other seasons.

The roof is funded entirely by fundraising activities and private donations of both time and money by a large group of dedicated volunteers, with help from a low-interest loan that will be paid back over a 10-year period.

The magic show is a new addition to a successful roster of events that include Bogie Style, a golf tournament, and Christmas concert.

We look forward to welcoming you to Calabogie and the Raise the Roof Magic Show.

By Cheryl Gallant, MP

July 2015

The announcement by the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) that Pembroke employer SRB Technologies (Canada) Inc.’s operating licence was renewed for seven years was not only great news for the 43 workers at the manufacturing facility. It was good news for the thousands of employees and their families in the Upper Ottawa Valley who depend on a healthy, vibrant nuclear industry for their jobs.

A local success story in business since 1990, SRBT in the last several years has increased its workforce from 15 to 43 employees. They manufacture self-luminating exit signs, among other products, using tritium, which is a nuclear substance.

The CNSC states in their Record of Proceedings that “as a regulator, the Commission is basing its decisions on scientific results that are accepted and reflected in documents and recommendations of leading international organizations such as the IAEA, World Health Organization, etc.”

The CNSC had to remind “all hearing participants that it is not acceptable to use false statements and incorrect data in submissions that are presented to the Commission and to the public.”

Luckily for the people working at SRBT in Pembroke, their jobs were saved. People who have not been so lucky are those who have lost their jobs because of alarmist claims about energy and the environment. Excessive electricity rates, driven by climate change extremists are hollowing out the manufacturing sector in Ontario.

The mistakes being made in Ontario must not be repeated federally. We cannot afford it. As your Federal Member of Parliament, I will not chase unproven theories or fads like socalled “green jobs” that have been proven in other countries to kill existing employment.

As your Federal Member of Parliament, I am pleased to represent you on a variety of issues. Whether that issue is promoting agriculture, international trade, Canadian Unity, AECL, CNL, the military or jobs in the working forest, I am here to serve you!

OPP report Renfrew OPP officers responded to 18 domestic dispute calls during the past week. One male was charged with forcible confinement and two counts of assault, another male was charged with failing to comply with a recognizance, and one male was charged with assault.

Animal Complaints

Police responded with Officers from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) to several reports of animals being left alone in hot vehicles in parking lots. Pet owners are reminded they should not be bringing animals out with them, only to lock them in a hot car while they go shopping. Temperatures inside vehicles rise very quickly and animals do not have the same ability as humans do to sweat and cool off. Criminal charges can be laid for causing unnecessary suffering. Leaving windows slightly open is not sufficient to cool the interior of a vehicle. Pet owners should leave their pets at home in the summer if they cannot supervise them.

LCBO stores to raise funds for children’s charity Starting on July 19, the public can help support the children and families served by the Jennifer Ashleigh Children’s Charity (JACC) by making a donation at any of the more than 650 LCBO stores throughout Ontario.

Donation boxes for JACC will be displayed at LCBO checkout counters, including Renfrew’s, until Aug. 15.

Funds raised through the program will be used to help seriously ill children living with life-limiting conditions across the province, with expenses surrounding their illnesses. JACC’s mission is “improving the quality of life for seriously ill children and their families … when love is not enough.”

Fifteen-month old Olivia is diagnosed with a rare kidney condition called Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) and is featured on this year’s donation box backer card.

Olivia’s parents wrote: “We would like to send a big thank-

you to the Jennifer Ashleigh Children’s Charity for assisting us with our daughter Olivia’s extra formula expenses. We greatly appreciate your help during this challenging time.

“She spent her first three months in hospital. She is now 15 months old and is currently on peritoneal dialysis at home for 12 hours each night, along with being on a feed pump to ensure she gets her proper nutrition. She will need a kidney transplant once she reaches 20 lb. and is walking, we are hoping within the next year.

“Despite Olivia’s health, she is a fighter and a very happy baby. She makes us smile every day. Thank you for your kindness.”

Founded in 1990, JACC is a registered Canadian charity that is unique in the children’s charity sector. It is not illness or disease specific, assists children from birth to 21 years of age, fills the gap where other chari-

The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, July 16, 2015 19

Connor ‘Boots’ Dorzek stays inside the boundaries while setting up a course at the cubs camp during the first week of July.

Peter Clark/Metroland

Valley Wide Real Estate Brokerage 35 Main St., Cobden 613-646-9853 38 Alice St., Eganville

Cubs enjoy experience of five-day camp peter.clark@metroland.com

Cubs and their leaders from Eganville, Petawawa and Renfrew enjoyed summer camp at Camp Legewade July 5 to 9.

The five-day camp along the shores of Hurds Lake featured fishing, swimming, crafts and water crafts, among other events for the cubs.

Lifeguards from Arnprior and youth leaders from Eganville and Renfrew also helped out at the camp.

Leader Martin Thompson of Petawawa has made some good friends in Renfrew and area as a result of his association with the camp over the years.

While safety is obviously paramount, he said making it fun for the cubs is also important.

“What’s the use of going to camp if the kids aren’t go-

ing to have fun, right?” Thompson said.

Renfrew town councillor Kate Windle also took time to attend some of the camp’s functions.

“Scouts Canada has an incredible group of leaders in training and what an honour it was to attend their annual dinner,” Coun. Windle said in an email.

“Even as the storm clouds formed above their heads, they continued performing their funny skits and singing their happy campfire songs.

“The kind and caring leaders ensure the safety and wellbeing of the children, while teaching programs and following the guidelines that are set out by Scouts Canada,” Windle said.

Campers make new friends and learn about teamwork, while developing their self-confidence, Windle said.

We hope we make you proud even though you’re no longer here, Your memory grows stronger with every passing year, At the end it was a battle, one you weren’t to win, A fight against a demon, no choice but to give in, We wish we could have said goodbye, that day when you left, Told you you were our hero and said you were the best, Tears we cry in secret, at night before we sleep, Wishing you were beside us, you’d be forever here to keep, The years don’t make it easier, they said the pain would go, It seems we’ve just got better, not letting our feelings show, Wishing we could hold your hands, to shout your names out loud, You’re no longer here but we hope we make you proud.

The residents assisted with the Table Topics by holding up cards with words on them which the speakers had to incorporate into their mini speech.

Sue Diotte, the Quail Creek activities aide, gave an outstanding performance in her Valley View speech on Arnprior and also in her Table Topic.

Table Topic is a one to two-minute speech on various topics. At this event the residents was given a card with one word on it.

The speaker had to create a story that included the words that were shown; which had to included from one to four different words.

Valley View is a five-minute speech that the speaker presents that represents geographical, historical, and other facts that reflect Renfrew County and the Ottawa Valley.

Refreshments were served afterwards.

Coping with

Debt

A bi-weekly guide on how to manage debt

At Doyle Salewski, we help people just like you every day.

Q: Everyone makes mistakes.That’s a given. Most successful people have had financial setbacks at some point in their lives and have learned valuable lessons from those mistakes.When you are faced with more debt that you can manage what should you do?

If you have a toothache, you call your dentist, not your mechanic. When you are having financial difficulty, you should call a trained, licensed professional to deal with your debt. Licensed Trustees in Insolvency and Restructuring are licensed by the federal government and are trained professionals. They are experienced and can be trusted. They are the ones you should call if you are having financial difficulty of any sort.

Our objective is the same in all cases: identify the reasons for the financial difficulty, provide some useful counseling and clear the debt based on a payment plan that fits your family’s budget. Reasons can range from marital issues to addiction, overspending, health setbacks, reduction in income and job loss as well as helping children or family. Whatever the issues, we will help you to address them and move forward with your life.

Once we meet with someone and take the time to fully understand their situation, we will explain which alternatives are best suited to relieve the debt stress. Options include:

Too many people let their physical and mental health suffer from financial stress when solutions are available now. Too many people feel guilty or embarrassed to ask for help. Seeking advice from a Licensed Trustee in Insolvency and Restructuring is empowering and allows you to map out a new start and have a positive outlook on life.

• mortgage refinancing • consolidation loan

Doyle Salewski has launched a series of short but very informative videos. The most recent release is entitled: “Know your debt options”. Please visit our web site to view them and let us know what you think.

• family loan • credit counseling • Consumer Proposal

Pedalling to stop cancer Peter Clark

peter.clark@metroland.com

Anthony Schmieder was born and grew up in Renfrew, attending Queen Elizabeth and Central public schools, and Renfrew Collegiate Institute before going off to St. Lawrence College and then universities of Lethbridge and Waterloo for computer studies.

Today, Schmieder is cycling from Victoria to St. John’s to raise money for cancer research. He’s also closing in on $5,000.

His goal is to raise $8,580, which is about one dollar for each kilometre he rides.

July 12 was a reunion day of sorts as the 34-year-old stopped at mom Brenda Collins’ home in Eganville, and aunt Mary Schmieder’s in Douglas before visiting his dad, John Schmieder and LeeAnn Somerville in Renfrew.

Schmieder emailed his thoughts on how things have gone up to July 12.

Overall things have been going great. That’s not to suggest that there haven’t been challenges. There have been many. I knew this would be hard, though, and so far I’ve come through Photos by Peter Clark/Metroland fine.

Fastpitch in Carp July 17-19

Hungry to make it three wins in three weekends, Beachburg’s Nathan Blok will be taking his Tenaquip/ Aurora Tools/Zenith Safety Products car No. 88 to the inaugural Bay of Quinte Grand Prix at Shannonville Motorsport Park just east of Belleville in the Bay of Quinte Region.

Despite having a disappointing end to round four of the Canadian Formula 2000 Championship series at Calabogie Motorsport Park, where mechanical problems forced him to pull off the track on lap 10 when he was leading by over 13 seconds, Blok is still running in second place in the championship, a mere six points behind his Britain West Motorsport teammate Chase Pelletier.

New challenge

Shannonville is a track that Blok, the two-time Canadian F1600 Champion has never raced at before and he is looking forward to the challenge

Ten men’s fastball teams from Ontario, Quebec and the northern United States will take to the diamonds in the eighth annual Gil Read Memorial Fastpitch Tournament at the Carp Fairgrounds this weekend.

Games run all weekend long with playoffs Sunday morning, and the final set for Sunday at 3 p.m.

The tournament winner will pocket $1,500 while the runner-up takes home $700. The losing semifinalists each receive $250. For more on the tournament, go to www.gilreadmemorial.com.

of again learning a new course and feels confident that he can perform well.

“I’m really excited to get behind the wheel again,” Blok said.

“It’s been a long break since Calabogie. Though I’ve tested at Shannonville several times, this will be my first race at the track. Since I go to college 20 minutes away at Loyalist, it will be very cool to bring home a win in front of some familiar faces.”

This two-day racing festival takes place Saturday, July 18 and Sunday July 19 where in addition to round 7 and 8 of the Canadian Formula 2000 Championship Series, there are six other racing championships being contested over the two days.

Racing fans can expect to sample some of the region’s food and beverage, engage with interactive motorsport and automotive themed displays and meet the drivers and teams in the open paddock area. There is also a German car show-and-shine event on Sunday.

Closest to the Pin was Rebecca Barr on No. 5 and Sandra Riopelle on No. 7. Congrats to all!

I love seeing the country at bicycle pace. I have visited so many small towns that I would have just blasted past if I were driving. The conversations I have with people in those towns are always uplifting. People are interested in the bike and the trip and many ask right away how they can donate. I stopped for groceries in Atikokan and had conversations with three different people before making it from my bike to the door of the grocer store. One of them knew the editor at the local newspaper and they did a story on my trip.

The best part of the trip so far has been the support I’ve received from friends and family. Some examples are my aunt and cousin collecting donations at their workplaces, a family friend putting up signs around Eganville to spread the word, the people who contacted media to get them interested and get some exposure for the trip, my friend who sent an email to my old coworkers. I can’t thank these people enough. It has been harder than I expected to get donations out on the road so these efforts back home have been essential.

Out on the road each day seems to bring a new challenge. The most challenging region for me so far has been Ontario. Northern Ontario has long stretches of bush with little variation in scenery and few towns or stores. I listened to music on my phone speaker to fight boredom up there. Additionally there are constant rolling hills with challenging sections throughout the province. In the B.C. and Alberta mountain passes you have a hard day of cycling to get over the pass followed by a day or two of mostly flat riding. In Ontario it’s hill after hill day after day with no flat days. Highway 17 in Ontario is bad for cycling too. It has a narrow

Renfrew Seniors have fun with Bags2 Fashion Roxanne Nolan

Renfrew Victoria Hospital hosted a Bags2 Fashion Show that on June 26 in conjunction with a barbecue for all seniors. The idea was to have some fun making fashion out of garbage bags and thus supplying a whole lot of laughter. The style can suit anyone!

The runway hosted many unusual ‘dresses ‘ for the afternoon. When each ‘model’ came on stage there was a fun description of the dress using a real play on words - the residents loved it.

An example of how the descriptions of the dresses went: ‘Moomoo Dress: Take a walk through the barnyard with this awe-

some oversized moomoo dress - an inspiration from the 1970s. The moomoo comes in a classic black and white print, light weight material, raglan sleeves and a loose cut. You certainly won’t look beefy in this must have Black Angus moomoo. Your friends will think you look udderly devine! Perfect for the annual barn dance.’

We celebrated the Pan Am/Para Pan Am Games with all sorts of sports and activities. We had fun using our imagination, creating beautiful crafts and artwork, and we had a blast learning new gymnastics skills while making new friends, but we aren’t done yet!

Summer Day Camp season in Renfrew has just begun and there is still plenty of fun to be had. Whether stalking animals and setting up campsites with tarps and hammocks at nature camp; playing cards and boardgames at games camp; or racing around and learning about bike mechanics at bike camp is your thing, we’ve got you covered.

If you just need to cool down during a hot summer, sign up for our H2O camp; or maybe you love competition and winning prizes? Then hand in your application for the county fair camp where you will create entries for the county fair competitions. If you simply like everything and just can’t decide you should come to our old school day camp, offering a variety of activities for everyone.

Spencer LaBrie has fun with the McDougall Mill Museum’s player piano.

submitted

Player piano among McDougall Mill Museum’s prized possessions McDougall Mill Museum

People have used music as a form of creative expression since the beginning of human history. Music is made in a variety of ways; with one’s hands, mouth, and body, as well as digitally and with the assistance of an instrument.

A very popular instrument seen throughout history is the piano.

Though many people enjoy the music made by this instrument, only select individuals are able to play the piano themselves. This was no longer the case in the early 1900s, when a ‘self-playing’ piano was manufactured to allow ordinary people to play their favourite songs. This was called a ‘player piano’, or a ‘pianola’.

A player piano is generally powered by foot pedals or a hand crank. It contains a built-in mechanism that operates the keys in place of a human pianist. Previously arranged music data, usually

stored as holes punched in paper, is read by a data reading mechanism, which ultimately controls the piano.

Player pianos can be almost identical to a regular piano in appearance; with normallooking keys, varying in size and shape. The earliest player pianos had hand cranks on the side, whereas newer versions are seen with pedals on the front. Generally, player pianos have an opening on the front, containing adapters for a cylinder roll. Near this roll is a switch that dictates whether the cartridge will rewind or play forward.

In order to play the piano, one must chose a cartridge.

Each cartridge contains one song, and there is a large variety of available cartridges. An individual must simply ensure the switch is ‘forward’, and begin to operate the pedals or the crank. When the hand crank or pedals are operated, the piano will play the selected song.

The keys move in sync with the song, as though they are

being played by a professional pianist. Though the piano is built to be played using the pedals or the crank, it can be played by hand as well.

These player pianos were widely manufactured and distributed from 1905-1925, with a peak in the early 1920s. During these years, wealthy people enjoyed this item mainly in their homes. At this time, there was no means of listening music but voice and instrument.

This item allowed untrained people to own and use a piano in their own houses.

In the late 1920s, the player piano began to lose popularity due to the introduction of new technology. Its decline was increased by the Great Depression in the 1930s, and player piano production slowed nearly to a halt. Today, most player pianos are over 70 years old, and are hard to come by.

If you’d like to try playing a real player piano, come by the Mcdougall Mill Museum in Renfrew, open 10 a.m.-4 p.m. daily.

Grad corrections

New hip dysplasia petition website address

Last week’s (July 9 Renfrew Mercury) coverage of the Renfrew Collegiate Institute graduation ceremonies contained two errors.

Marissa de Boer was missing from the list of students receiving their Renfrew County Medallions.

Justin Knight-Locke’s name was missing from the list of Ontario Scholars.

The Renfrew Mercury apologizes for any inconveniences caused by the errors.

In the July 9 story with Crystal Smith regarding Crystal’s daughter Miranda Smith, who has Hip Dysplasia, an incorrect email address was provided to the Renfrew Mercury.

The correct address to sign the petition is http://chn.ge/ 1HujFPS?recruiter=51251940.

Art in the Park The Renfrew Art Guild held Art in the Park 2015 at Haramis Park Saturday and Sunday July 11 and 12. The fourth annual event featured many varied mediums from glass, oil, acrylic, watercolour, photography, sculpture, pottery, wood and fabric art on display. A number of students in the Ottawa Valley also had many pieces of their own art up for view. They include, from left, Cassie Campbell, Dayna Schaly and Sarah Malatesta.

Chantel Richard, left, and Sandra Wales, right, show some of their art work at the Renfrew Art Guild’s fourth annual Art in the Park held at Haramis Park Saturday and Sunday July 11 and 12.

Newcomers at this year’s event included Rebecca Tock, Iya Carson, Tuscany Concrete and Chris Mussett. There was also a kids zone where kids could try their hand at creating, or having their face painted. Also featured was a graffiti board – this is a new venture in street art – while the Battle of the Canvas returned on Saturday. This is when artists complete a painting in 20 minutes, a challenge for most, and the public judges the results. The Renfrew Art Guild welcomes all artists and like-minded persons to join. Check www.renfrewartguild. com or call Diana Wakely at 613-433-3635.

More than 200 members, leaders and 4-H alumni enjoyed a barbecue and program hosted by the Renfrew County 4-H Association to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of 4-H in Ontario. The event was held June 28 at the Cobden Agricultural Hall.

Displays of ‘old’ photos, news clippings and 4-H club books brought back many memories.

4-H Clubs are organized around a project-based program to teach skills to the members aged 9 to 21 years.

At the same time, in 2015, 180 members are honing their leadership capabilities while acting as the executive of their club or youth leaders, passing on the skills they have learned to the younger members.

Now, 6 to 8-year-olds have their own club called Clover Buds where they can explore their creativity in a hands-on environment.

Also in attendance in Cobden representing corporate sponsors of the 4-H Ontario 100th anniversary celebrations were Emily Bromley of Barclay Dick and Son Hyland Seeds; Susan Humphries of the 4-H Foundation; and Robert Dick, Ottawa Valley Seed Growers.

Nancy Schultz, President of the Renfrew County 4-H Association, receives from MPP John Yakabuski, a certificate of recognition and congratulations on the 100th anniversary of 4-H in Ontario. The milestone was celebrated at the Cobden Agricultural Hall June 28 and was attended by more than 200 members.

Beware fraudsters: OPP

The Renfrew detachment of the OPP wants to remind people to be very suspicious of anyone calling claiming to represent a bank or credit card company. One resident of Admaston-Bromley Township was contacted by a male caller claiming to represent a bank. He claimed they had been defrauded on a credit card issued through the bank and to log on to a website to view the transaction and so the bank could refund the funds. When the person logged on, the caller took remote access and control of the computer and began a transaction that would transfer a large sum of money to a payee in India through a transfer company.

The person told them they were calling the

police and they unplugged their computer to halt the transaction. The male caller called them stupid and hung up the phone. Report frauds to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre at 1-888-4958501 or at www.antifraudcentre.ca.

Mail box damage

Several community mail boxes located at the intersection of Calabogie and Black Donald roads in Greater Madawaska were damaged.

Locks appear to have been broken off at least four mail boxes at the location. It is not known if anything was stolen. Provincial Const. Raul Pasta Junior is investigating.

50 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, July 16, 2015

A handshake could predict honesty and integrity Mary Cook’s Memories

BY MARY COOK

Father always said you could tell much about a man, by the shake of his hand.

A good Ottawa Valley grasp, one that forced your fingers into a knot, meant the hand shaker was a man of honesty and integrity.

Ignore the fact that for us young children, these bone crunching handshakes left us maimed for days. A hold on a hand was far more important than inflicted pain as a result.

A good steady and firm pump should always accompany the grasp too. Anything else was called a dead fish greeting. And it didn’t matter how often my father met a neighbour in a day, they always greeted each other with an outstretched hand.

Their paths may have crossed at Briscoe’s store, and then again at the mailbox, and maybe even later in someone’s barn yard, but always the

hands were thrust out to offer a bone crunching Renfrew County greeting.

We children were taught at an early age learning to shake hands was just as important as learning to add and subtract at the Northcote School.

And if the brothers were greeting someone, their caps had to be quickly taken off their heads, tucked under their arms, and then their hands were thrust out for the shake.

In the ‘30s it was considered the height of disrespect for any young lad to talk to an adult with his cap on.

Father said much could be learned from a handshake.

Take old Herman down the road. He was a whopper of a man with wide shoulders and hands like frying pans.

He had a wonderful German sense of humour, and Father thought he was one of the best neighbours we had in Renfrew

County. And I always thought it was because when Herman took a hold of your hand, he covered your limb right up past your wrist.

By the time he finished pumping, your shoulder felt like it had been put in a jackhammer. Never mind, Father said, he was honest, sincere, and a man of his word, and his handshake proved it.

Then again there was another man on one of the side roads who Father had little time for. In fact Father thought he and the word honesty had never become acquainted. We often heard stories of turkeys that had vanished right out of the yard, and heifers that became mysteriously separated from the herd. No one ever came right out and said this neighbour had taken the turkeys or heifers, but we always knew that because of this man’s weak handshake that put him in the class of possible candidates.

Once Father said his wife had to iron his body before he could get his pants on because he was so crooked. I don’t have to tell you what mental pictures that little comment created in my already fertile

young old mind.

As I pictured the man flat out on the kitchen table being straightened out with a flat iron so he could get into his trousers, caused me to cringe at the very thought.

And it was all because of this poor man’s unfortunate handshake. And I often recollect back to those days in the ‘30s where deals were made verbally in the barnyard. Two farmers talking about buying or selling livestock or feed, or agreeing on a trade. They got all the particulars out of the way...over much nodding of heads and long pauses where the silence could be heard in Admaston.

And I would watch the transactions transpire…knowing so well the sequence of events from having viewed them often in the barnyard or the drive shed. Father and his neighbour would banter back and forth…as if they were sparring in a ring...then would come the long pause.

Father would look up to the clouds or the roof of the drive shed. He’d squint with his eyes half shut, take a long drag on his pipe and blow a slow cloud of blue smoke in the air. Then

Father said much could be learned from a handshake. Take old Herman down the road. He had a wonderful German sense of humour, and Father thought he was one of the best neighbours we had in Renfrew County. And I always thought it was because when Herman took a hold of your hand, he covered your limb right up past your wrist. almost as if there had been a silent signal, the two men would thrust out their hands.

This shake would be different from the pumping we saw in a greeting however. There would be that firm grasp. Both hands would go up, and then come down...only once.

It was as if they were saying. “Good. It’s a deal. The matter is closed. There is nothing more to talk about.”

Farms traded with a handshake. Crops sold by a handshake...and a transaction that got us our first Model T in exchange for nine loads of sand from our gravel pit was closed when my Father and our neighbour met, discussed the deal and closed it with a one pump handshake.

No wonder from the time

we were able to utter “Goodday” or “How do you do” our mother thought it her duty to instruct us on the rudiments of handshaking.

Just as we learned at an early age that we never chewed gum in public, wiped our noses on our cuffs, or stared at someone with an infirmity, we learned that some day we would be judged by our handshake...and by all that was holy, we better learn how to do it well.

The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, July 16, 2015 51

A friend in need is a friend indeed Kyra Anne Rennie, seven-yearold daughter of Jean Hughes and grand daughter of Pauline and Kevin Hughes sent us this picture of her ‘spring friend.’ Kyra takes art lessons and had six pictures in the Art in the Park 2015 display at the Haramis Park in Renfrew. She is a true field naturalist and enjoys spring flowers as well as spring bird friends. We thank her for sharing her art work with us.

Racing pigeons

Linda Ainsworth found a very approachable pigeon on their lawn this week. It did not appear to be afraid of her and did not want to leave. It had two leg bands, one green and the other orange-red. The bands indicate that the bird was a racing pigeon that has lost both its energy and its way. Provincial and local racing pigeon clubs usually hold competitions on most long weekends during the summer months. Some of the birds become lost and fly until they are no longer able to do so. They come to ground to rest and regain their strength. If one should land near your home you can help by providing cracked corn, available at local feed stores, for them.

They are ground feeders and can become a target for a predator and try-

ing to catch them may cause injury to the bird. The best policy is to keep pets away from them and in a week or two they will regain their strength and return to their home loft.

Chimney swifts

Cathy Campbell saw several chimney swifts circling the O’Brien building in Renfrew. The birds nest in the area and are becoming rare because of nesting site loss. Modern oil or gas fired furnaces do not require the large flues that coal fired furnaces do and thus the loss of nest sites when the conversion from coal takes place.

The ritual of ‘going to roost’ is quite spectacular. Several swifts will circle the roost for up to 45 minutes; some of the birds will drop into the roost while the others continue to circle. This display continues until all the birds have gone to roost. + Chimney swifts have very dis-

Keith and Ann Eady have a black and white warbler nesting near their home in Horton. The black and white warbler is more closely related to the nuthatches in its feeding behaviour than to the warblers. It is the only warbler to feed by creeping along the trunks of trees much like the nuthatches and creepers thus the name black and white nuthatch or pied creeper. A leg-banded black and white warbler was known to be at least 11 years and three months old, the oldest warbler on record.

stone covered, flat roofs and the use of insecticides has reduced their numbers drastically. As a result the birds are beginning to nest in parking lots and other areas covered with gravel where they are vulnerable to a variety of hazards.
