Working with neighbouring municipalities has certainly paid off for the Town of Renfrew.

On July 16 at the .COM Ma-Te-Way Ac.COM tivity Centre, the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport announced a successful Time to Play application of $36,946 for Renfrew.

This allows the town to work with neighbouring municipalities to provide low-cost recreation to the residents.

“We are very excited to be working with and continuing the partnership we have with Greater Madawaska, Horton and Admaston-Bromley (townships),” said Renfrew parks and recreation director Kevin Hill.

“We are currently working on putting together the same partnership agreement with McNab-Braeside.”

The Time to Play grant will see the municipality purchase a trailer to move recreation equipment and supplies from various facilities, and parks throughout the neighbouring municipalities. The town will build upon the partnerships that started through some agreements

“This partnership that you have forged with your municipal neighbours, I think it’s a wonderful testament to the relationship you have with your neighbours, as well,” said Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski. “I always really love when I see a good plan come together. To be able to have those shared-cost agreements for your facilities is a wonderful thing that you have done here, and is very, very positive.

“The vast majority of kids today spend too much time on using their thumbs, instead of their legs, arms, shoulders and hips,” Yakabuski added.

Renfrew considers dropping prayer from meetings Sherry Haaima

sherry.haaima@metroland.com

Peter Clark

peter.clark@metroland.com

Greater Madawaska Township is joining a lengthening list of municipalities that will do away with a non-denominational prayer to open its council meetings.

Renfrew County Council has abolished the prayer, CAO Allison Holtzhauer noted, and recommended at its council meeting of July 14 that Greater Madawaska do the same.

County Council received legal advice regarding the use of the non-denominational prayer at meetings after the recent Supreme Count of Canada decision and the County’s Procedural Bylaw.

The solicitor added that a challenge would be successful, and if a complainant sought damages, he or she would likely succeed.

County voted unanimously to do away with the prayer June 24, and Greater Madawaska followed suit July 14.

Council Glen MacPherson said it’s less about the fact that the prayer has been removed

Peter Clark/Metroland

Greater Madawaska Township, in partnership with the Calabogie Lions Club, received $10,000 in a grant from Hydro One on July 14. Proceeds will go to building a playground beside the Calabogie Community Hall.

“I was raised in an Evangelical Protestant home.

To pray or not to pray, that is the question.

The Town of Renfrew has joined the debate about whether reciting their opening prayer before council meetings should continue.

July 14, Mayor Don Eady asked council to consider the issue before the group’s next regular meeting Aug. 11.

The town’s long-standing practice of inviting representatives to present prayers or blessings before meetings was discontinued in January 2015 and replaced with a non-denominational prayer.

Renfrew County Council recently discontinued its prayer, citing legal advice and the April 14 Supreme Court of Canada decision in Quebec that held reciting a religious non-denominational prayer before council meetings infringes upon freedom of conscience and religion and that a municipality must not make use of its powers to promote or impose a religious belief.

The Township of Greater Madawaska recently scrapped its practice of praying before meetings.

cause you don’t agree with something doesn’t mean that it should arbitrarily be removed,” he added.

“The fact that we could find ourselves in a position where somebody could take offence, and we could end up being sued; or a claim being brought against us, I find that appalling in this day and age.”

Under the circumstances, Coun. MacPherson did agree with council that eliminating the prayer was the right thing to do.

“There’s no point in fighting a battle you can’t win. Just because I have a personal belief, it would be unacceptable for me to take a stand that could end up costing the taxpayers of our community.”

Speedboard

Coun. MacPherson, the township’s representative at Community Policing Advisory Committee (CPAC) meetings, informed council on the availability of the OPP speedboard.

The speedboard, which is

set up on a small trailer on the side of the road, shows a driver’s speed as they approach.

It is available for municipalities from the Ontario Provincial Police on a request basis.

“Personally, in a municipality or any area where just the residents are seeing their speed show up on the speedboard, I don’t know if it really provides any real benefit,” Coun. MacPherson said.

However, on busy weekends such as Calabogie Rib and Bluesfest that stretches over a three or four-day period, using the speedboard might prove valuable. “(For) vehicles coming into the community, this will remind them that it is a residential area, and they need to be cognisant of the way they drive. It’ll get the message out to the locals as well,” Coun.

MacPherson said.

Council will request the speedboard for the Blues and Ribfest weekend Aug. 14-16.

They’ll check with public works for thoughts on the best place to locate the speedboard.

Recreation programs will be free of charge

“We really want to get the word out there of our partnership, because a lot of people are still coming into the rec centre wondering if they are paying a user fee or how much this fee costs,” Hill added. “We really want to get aggressive to let our neighbours know what their municipal councils have done to provide that partnership to them as residents.”

Residents will have a say as to what they’d like to see in

terms of programs.

“We have currently been asking the neighbouring municipality recreation committees for programs and services that they would like to see, and we are really going to be working with those rec committees and staff in those neighbouring municipalities to see where the shortfalls are,” Hill said.

The program will be launched immediately, and runs through the end of March 2016. They applied for the grant this past

February.

“This program will be free of charge to all the municipalities,” said Renfrew Mayor Don Eady. Partnerships such as this also provide an economic spinoff, he added. “If your children are playing soccer, etc., parents might be out having a meal or buying gas, this type of thing.”

The mayor thanked recreation committee chair Tom Sidney and Tourism, Culture and Sport regional advisor Carmen Goold for their efforts.

“When we can give those children the opportunities and encourage them to be more active, it’s going to pay dividends, and not only today, but very much down the road as well.”

Yakabuski also pointed to the benefits for seniors.

“One of the most important ways to make seniors enjoy those golden years is to be more physically active. If you are more physically active, you are healthier and you’ll be able to enjoy more things as you age.”

Yakabuski congratulated the Town of Renfrew for making this initiative with its neighbours.

The plan is to utilize two new facilities in each municipality, and create new programs to see 100 new participants in our surrounding areas, Hill explained.

“What I feel we’ve set is very obtainable. If we can get 100 more youth active or 100 new seniors active, that’s really what the goal is of this program.”

They are also trying to add two new programs to each municipality. It will include a part-time staffing component, equipment, and aggressive ad-

Legion needs $25,000 for new roof Peter Clark

peter.clark@metroland.com

The home of the Royal Canadian Legion Renfrew Branch 148 is in need of a new roof.

It’ll cost $25,000, and third-vice president Randy Dowell is leading the charge to see that it happens.

Already scheduled is a fundraising garage, craft, bake sale and silent auction on the weekend of Saturday-Sunday, Oct. 10 and 11.

Dowell is getting the message out on social media.

“I’ve been using Twitter to raise funds.

Actually, Canadian author Margaret Atwood sent us a bunch of signed books. I’ve been hitting up every Canadian celebrity out there for stuff.”

Dowell is also in contact with a company called Soundcheck Entertainment, which does a number of stage shows, including Ottawa Bluesfest. “They are looking at helping us out with a parking lot party,” Dowell said.

“I’ve got another company that’s looking at trying to get the supplies and all the labour (for the Legion roof) for free. They are a construction company out of Ottawa, Kingston and Toronto,” Dowell said.

“I’m not going to say we’re going to get it, but I’m hopeful. I’m going to keep my fingers crossed, and everyone in Renfrew should keep their fingers crossed,” he added.

“This place has been here for 86 years now, and we don’t want to let a leaky roof close the

-- TriniTy-ST. Andrew’S UniTed ChUrCh --

building. It’s ridiculous.”

Dowell has already received great support via Twitter.

He’s had responses from the Clayton Bellamy band, George Stroumboulopoulos, Our Lady Peace, Sum 41, Brent Butt and more.

“They are all retweeting me, so I’m reaching a wider audience versus last time when I just asked them directly for items for an auction,” Dowell explained.

“Since I’ve started this 1,400 have visited our website. Hopefully it helps to get the new roof,” he added.

“I’ve pretty well followed every Canadian actor and actress out there. I’ve sent out over Peter Clark/Metroland 150 emails to big companies in Ontario and Randy Dowell, third vice president, Canada. I’m hoping it’s going to relate to shows the leaky roof at the Royal Canaproducts for the auction, at least.” dian Legion Renfrew Branch 148.

The federal government campaign to encourage families to sign up for increased child care benefits reached Renfrew County last week.

The increases in the Universal Child Care Benefit (UCCB) has generated controversy, with the Conservatives promoting them as a central to their policies to boost assistance for middle class families. However, the opposition parties are calling the increases a pre-election bribe to voters and argue a comprehensive child care plan would do more for parents who most need the help.

Conservatives Cabinet Ministers have been touring the country promoting the increases and urging families to sign up to receive the benefits, which began to be distributed Monday.

At a hastily-called press conference in Pembroke July 16, Federal Employment and Social Development Minister Pierre Poilievre and Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant urged Renfrew County families not registered for the benefits to make sure they receive them.

They said an estimated 130 families with children in Pembroke and 90 others in Petawawa are eligible to receive money but are at risk of not receiving the benefit unless they apply. They didn’t have statistics for the rest of the county, although it is likely there are well over 100 more families in the riding in the same boat.

As a result, Poilievre asked for help from the media and the public to encourage these families to apply for the benefit.

Poilievre and Gallant explained that the majority of Canadian families with children, about 3.8 million, are known by the government and will automatically receive the boosted UCCB or be contacted to confirm their information.

However, an estimated 200,000 eligible families, including 69,000 in Ontario, are not currently captured by the Government’s UCCB system and may miss out on receiving money that is owed to them unless they apply, they said.

For 2015 alone, this represents potentially millions of dollars in unclaimed benefits, Gallant and Poilievre noted.

Under the boosted UCCB, families will receive almost $2,000 per year for each child under 6 and $720 per year for each child aged 6 through 17. The new benefit amounts are retroactive to Jan. 1, and are reflected in monthly payments to families beginning this month.

The increases to the UCCB are expected to more than double the number of families that benefit - from 1.6 million to more than 4 million.

“Our government is making life more affordable for hard-working families in Pembroke, and across the Ottawa Valley, by increasing the Universal Child Care Benefit,” said Gallant. “More families will now be able to benefit and have more money to spend on their priorities as a family.”

About $1.15 billion in UCCB payments were sent out Monday to about 1.5 million families in the province of Ontario.

If a family is not receiving the UCCB, has never received the UCCB or has never applied for the Canada Child Tax Benefit and still have children under 18 in your care, they are urged to go to www.canada.ca/taxsavings to find out how to apply.

Employment and Social Development Minister Pierre Poilievre and Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant urge families to ensure they are taking advantage of increases in the federal government’s Universal Child Care Benefit.

Junior firefighter program on the way in Greater Madawaska Peter Clark

peter.clark@metroland.com

Greater Madawaska will adopt a junior firefighters program for the township.

A few months ago, council had learned of this program being operated with success in a neighbouring municipality.

There were initial concerns that there would not be sufficient youth to run the program. However, staff is confident such is not the case today.

“There is definitely interest among the teenagers to get actively involved in a junior firefighters program,” CAO Allison Holtzhauer said at the July 14 council meeting.

single family homes, not the collector road and sound barrier walls that are being proposed.

They are also concerned with a series of roundabouts, including one at Froats Avenue, planned for Hall Avenue.

The project is being planned using the municipal class environmental assessment (EA) process. The route was selected last year in phase one and two of the EA process and the town is now proceeding with phase three, which looks at the detailed engineering and alignment.

Officials say the process is designed to engage the community and the public to provide their input into the project and the third, discretionary meeting was added to ensure all comments were heard and questions answered. “We’ve extended the process to gather that information,” said Taylor.

He explained that decisions for the whole EA haven’t been finalized.

Three options for the extension of Hall Avenue were originally considered before the existing proposal was selected.

“This alternative was by far and away the

Sherry.haaima@metroland.com

The town and its consultants were looking for input into the proposed Hall Avenue extension and that’s exactly what they got.

Council chamber was filled on Tuesday, July 14, as the town and BT Engineering project manager Steve Taylor hosted a third public session to gather input on the proposed extension, which has Hall Avenue continuing and running adjacent to the backyards of a number of residents of Otteridge Avenue in Hunter Gate subdivision.

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

A large number of the group was made up of Hunter Gate residents concerned with the proposal.

As reported in last week’s Renfrew Mercury, the informal homeowners group has submitted a petition asking the town to reconsider the proposal. While members knew eventually the area, which is now just fields, would be developed, they expected

best performer and provided a transportation link that had the lowest cost and had the lowest environmental effects,” said Taylor.

“We ended up recommending a series of three roundabouts on the corridor,” Taylor explained. “It provided a safer intersection and it provided a better context sensitive solution for the community in that it would provide lower operating speeds and induce less truck traffic to use the new collector road.”

He explained the four classifications of roadways: a local street which sees less than 1,000 cars a day; a collector road which sees 5,000-10,000 vehicles a day; an arterial road which can see up to 40,000 vehicles a day; and a freeway or highway.

Hall Avenue falls into the collector road category, while O’Brien Road is an arterial road.

“Arterial roads and freeways carry larger volumes of truck traffic,” said Taylor. “We are not expecting a large amount of truck traffic on the new Hall Avenue.”

All subdivisions have to have a collector road, said Taylor, even though some may not recognize it.

Developer, realtor did not know of changes Sherry Haaima

The developer and realtor of Hunter Gate subdivision say they learned of the planned Hall Avenue extension route at the same time as the residents concerned with the proposal.

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.

Developer Mac Wilson of

Wilson Investments said he and Hunter Gate main realtor Helen Vincent did not have advance knowledge of the changes.

“We as developers have nothing to do with it,” he said.

“That was the town and the engineering company for the town. We were as surprised as the tenants that this has taken place.”

Any suggestion they withheld the information is false, he said, and an unfair attack.

“Residents were not ill-advised in any way. It was not a decision of the salespeople who sold the lot,” he said.

As far as his opinion on the proposed route, Wilson said

he’s not in a position to comment.

“I’m not getting involved in a standoff with the town,” he said.

Vincent reiterated Wilson’s comments. “We have no control over what they’re doing,” she said. “When it surfaced, that was when all of us became aware. If I had known, why would I not tell them?”

She sold based on what she knew to be the plan for the subdivision.

“I’ve done business in Hunter Gate for a very long time and I’m certainly wanting it to turn out to be nice,” said Vincent. “This is an awful mess.”

Helicopter company hooks up with Wilderness Tours Scott Campbell

scottcampbell@metroland.com

The propellers whirled and the grass rippled as pilot Matthew Minnie lifts the helicopter off the ground.

The sun is shining brightly as the view changes with the helicopter rising to about 1,000 feet in the air. The sights of the water and countryside stretch farther into the distance.

Minnie is flying for Essential Helicopters from North Bay. The helicopter company has been offering rides out of Wilderness Tours, near Forester Falls, to go along with the whitewater rafting, kayaking and the bungee-jumping thrill seekers.

“I contacted Wilderness in April to see if they were interested,” said Minnie. The flights have only been running since the second weekend of June. “(Owner) Joe Kowalski was on board.”

Before taking off, the importance of safety is impressed on the passengers . Like an airplane, Minnie gives a rundown on the seatbelts and makes a

SCOTT CAMPBELL/METROLAND

Matthew Minnie is the capable pilot of the flight with Essential Helicopters mention on what can be done in case of an emergency and what the passengers need to do upon landing.

The helicopter in question is a Robinson 44 with a six-cylinder piston engine. It seats four, including the pilot.

Minnie mentioned Brandon Heathers as another pilot also

taking flights at Wilderness Tours. The helicopter is a part of a Canadore College program in North Bay. The overall goal, said Minnie, is not to make a lot of money despite the helicopter being a costly endeavor for the company. He pointed out the propellers alone cost more than

$120,000.

The helicopter rides are to hopefully find prospective pilots.

“The demographics here work for us,” said Minnie.

“Our big thing is we are a charter and flight school. When we do these events we are not out to make money. We are out to break even and find that student who also wishes to live in the skies and follow their dreams.”

Minnie wasn’t always in aviation either, but eventually decided being up in the air was for him.

“I always wanted to be able to fly,” he said. “I loved Peter Pan as a child and after years of running and owning my own excavation company, I got tired and bored. I decided to fulfill a childhood dream and fly for the rest of my life.”

The peak times for flights have so far been in the afternoon and into the evening since most people are out rafting. The early afternoon has been quiet.

“Wilderness has been great, their team has been overwhelmingly helpful and on board,” said Minnie.

“The first few weekends have been slow with school still being in, but we are hoping to draw from the public and local communities as it’s a great way to see your backyard. Most people don’t know what they have around here or how it’s all interconnected.

“From 1,000 feet up it puts a whole new perspective on things and an appreciation for Mother Nature and the communities around. Now, that school is out, we will also draw a lot more from Wilderness Tours.”

The primary focus for the tours is flying above the resort and the rapids and along the Ottawa River. The roughly 15minute ride costs about $100 a seat.

Minnie noted that charter flights would be taken into consideration. One group wanted to fly over Beachburg, so the price is given on-site or through e-mail depending on the type of request.

“We also offer introductory flights here as well at Wilderness Tours,” said Minnie. “If someone is interested in learning to fly, we will put the dual

controls in and they can actually fly the helicopter for 20 to 30 minutes.” This avenue costs about $300 per person.

Essential Helicopters will be at Wilderness Tours for most weekends through to September. The company has had long-time commitments, such as the Havelock Jamboree, that take priority.

Wilderness Tours will be host to the 2015 World Freestyle Kayak Championships from Aug. 30 to Sept. 5.

REPORTER TAKES FLIGHT

I can count on one hand the amount of times I’ve flown.

Four times in an airplane and my first time in a helicopter on June 26.

Essential Helicopters showed off their service for Metroland Media employees Leslie Osborne and Paula Inglis and me. The ride was smoother than expected. The view offers a whole new perspective on the Valley.

It was a memorable adventure.

K

udos to the Town of Renfrew and area municipalities for their continued efforts to collaborate for the betterment of all communities.

News of the recent Time to Play grant that will see just under $37,000 in grant money support joint recreation efforts is the latest confirmation that together, more and better programs and facilities can be offered.

This Canada Day, the communities consulted and worked to offer activities that didn’t overlap so those wishing to could start their day in Horton, head to Admaston-Bromley mid-day and wrap up their celebrations in either Renfrew or Greater Madawaska. Big numbers at all of the events indicated there were plenty of individuals who took the time to drop by each municipality for the various celebrations.

And in a day and age where screen time is often replacing time in the great outdoors and any spare time at all is increasingly hard to come by, the town and its neighbours recognize the need to offer programs and facilities that are affordable and accessible to all.

The Time to Play grant will fund the purchase of a trailer that will move rec-

reation equipment and supplies from various facilities and parks throughout the neighbouring municipalities.

The 2015 ParticipACTION Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth (www.participactionreportcard.com), released in June 2015, indicates more needs to be done to keep our kids healthy and active.

A comprehensive assessment of child and youth physical activity in Canada, the report card gives us a D-minus when it comes to the overall physical activity of our children.

Seventy per cent of children aged 34 get the recommended 180 minutes of daily activity at any intensity, says the report card. However, as the guidelines change to 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity per day for those ages five and up, rates fall to only 14 per cent of kids meeting guidelines at age 5-11, and only five per cent meeting the guidelines at ages 12-17.

For the first time, the report card takes a stand on play in nature and the outdoors—with its risks—and includes a position statement on active outdoor play.

The biggest risk, says ParticipACTION, is keeping kids indoors.

Bluegrass concert fundraiser caps weekend of good music Proceeds support transportation subsidy program

The cost of non-urgent medical transportation can pose a financial barrier to those living on a fixed income.

14 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, July 23, 2015

BT will consider input before final recommendation Continued from page 6

Now that the particular design and route is being considered, BT and the town are looking at two options – the one that has Hall Avenue extending along the backyards of the concerned Otteridge residents and the other that has a row of homes before the extended avenue.

“When we put the new Hall Avenue behind that other row of houses, you would have characteristics where you would have small back yards,” said Taylor.

There would be a maximum 22 metres between the back of Otteridge residents’ homes and the back of their neighbours’ homes.

“The dimensions could be as low as 14 metres if they choose to build at the back of their lot,” said Taylor. That plan would also mean there would be a number of driveways opening onto Hall Avenue.

The option BT thought was more desirable was to have Hall Avenue extended directly behind the Otteridge backyards, with a privacy fence and greenery to improve the aesthetics.

“This one had better performance for transportation and took away a lot of the driveways on Hall Avenue,” said Taylor.

“It does provide traffic closer to your homes, but we’re predicting the volume of traffic to be in the order of 5,000 vehicles a day. You have two choices, a close house or a privacy fence, with trees.”

The route can and may be realigned, based on the input, said Taylor. And it will be some time before any progress is seen in terms of construction.

“This project could be 10 or 20 years away,” said Taylor. “When this is built is going to be quite a time period from now.”

A number of people in the crowd spoke up against the proposal.

“Why wasn’t’ this done before the subdivision was approved?” asked one resident.

“It’s unfortunate it wasn’t done before phase four of the subdivision was approved,” said Taylor. “Our advice to the town is to try to do this planning so that others who come into the community know what the link is going to be.”

It’s important to have the plans in place as the area develops, he said, as future services, including gas and water lines, will all run along the corridor. In terms of next steps, BT will review comments before bringing its technical recommendation to council. A review period will follow after council approves any recommendation, said Taylor.

Visit the town’s website at www. renfrew.ca for more details.

The Northern Old Bastards Vintage Motorcycle Club (NOBS) donated $528 this year to the Renfrew Victoria Hospital Foundation. The registered non-profit organization shares all proceeds from its annual breakfasts and merchandise sales evenly amongst health care facilities and food banks across Renfrew County and the Pontiac. Barb Desilets, RVH Foundation executive director, accepted the cheque, noting that it is greatly appreciated at a time when the hospital is undergoing the largest expansion and redevelopment in its history. On hand for the presentation are club members Terry Howland, Bob Nigro, Scott St. Micheal, Dieter Stehle, Tim and Joanne Chapeski, Ken Rekowski, Leon Roy and Kareen Rekowski, along with Desilets (centre).

Dragonfly Golf Links hosts Intersectional competition, captures title Bill Rainboth

Dragonfly General Manager

Dragonfly Golf Links hosted the L division of Intersectional play July 12. This division was made up of Oaks of Cobden, Champions Nest, Lombard Glen and a team from Dragonfly.

The home team was nervous to start the day. However, as the day heated up, so too did the play of its more experi-

enced players.

Led by six-point contributions from Jesse Riopelle, Chad Thompson, Mike Riopelle, Michel Levesque, and Patrick Neville, the Dragonfly team proved to be too much for their competitors.

The final standing was Dragonfly 43 points, Lombard Glen and Oaks of Cobden both with 27 points, and Champions Nest 23 points.

Other Dragonfly team

members were Matt Brennan, Jarrett Latendresse, Craig Briscoe, Jamie Cloutier, and Robert Pelletier.

Alternate team members Jared Riopelle and Matt Snyder were present if the need arose to provide support to a very unified team. Dragonfly Golf Links is very proud of its team. By winning their division Dragonfly will be in J Division next year. Congrats gentlemen.

People Helping Nine tables belie summer slowdown at duplicate bridge People: How I became a volunteer Renfrew & Area Senior’s Home Support

After I retired and moved out of the city and into Renfrew, my health suddenly began to spiral downward.

Someone told me about the services at Renfrew & Area Seniors’ Home Support and I contacted them and they provided me with all the necessary services that I was in need of.

They were very friendly and great to me; me, a person that they did not know and who had just moved into their town.

Once my health began to improve, I wanted to give back to the community who accepted me and helped me in my time of need. I approached Renfrew Seniors’ Home Support to ask what I could do to help their organization. They asked if I would consider writing their People Helping People articles and also assist with fundraising events, so that is exactly what I did. I am so thankful to Renfrew Seniors’ Home Support and their many volunteers for showing such kindness to a complete stranger and for giving me back my independence.

As the needs of seniors and adults with disabilities in our community are steadily increasing so are the demands for our services. Volunteers are vital to the delivery of the services at Renfrew Home Support and as demands for services increase so does our need for volunteers to provide and maintain the quality of services we provide - services that help individuals to stay in their own homes and in their own communities longer.

There are many benefits to volunteering: reduced social isolation through increased activity, filling your day in a way that benefits others, reducing life stresses and increasing personal empowerment, self-worth and self-confidence. It brings fulfillment to your life and benefits both the mind and body. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer call our office at 613-432-7691.

A very successful Dessert Theatre was held on Thursday, June 25 at Kirk Hall. Special thanks to Bob Bouchard for writing ‘The Scare’ as well as the actors Doug Miller, Shirley Hill and Mike Nagrodskie and emcee Guy Jamieson for giving us a wonderful performance and many laughs.

Renfrew Home Support will be hosting a fundraising barbecue outside the office on Friday, Aug. 28.

This event is open to all and we invite you to come out and support Senior’s Home Support.

TO PROTECT ONTARIO’S BIODIVERSITY. Ontario Power Generation is conducting research in the vicinity of its Des Joachims, Chenaux and Chats Falls hydroelectric generating stations.

This research, which is being carried out by Kleinschmidt Associates and Bowfin Environmental Consulting, is in support of OPG’s ongoing American eel and lake sturgeon mitigation studies for these species at risk.

Kleinschmidt and Bowfin boats may be in close proximity to the shoreline as it completes day and night-time fishing abundance studies and shoreline inspections. This yearly research is being conducted under permits from the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry and in accordance with O. Reg. 242/08 (as amended by O. Reg. 176/13) under the Ontario Endangered Species Act. Work will continue until the end of September.

Please visit www.opgbiodiversity.ca to learn more about OPG’s biodiversity programs. If you have any questions about these studies, contact OPG at 613-433-9673 ext. 3350.

Players filled nine tables for duplicate bridge at Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre July 15. Organizers were pleased with the turnout during a traditionally slower season, even welcoming three new players to the club.

The afternoon’s Chalk Talk had Wayne Daze emphasizing the importance of the responder’s bid to an overcall. The 17 players at the session were uniformly amazed that an overcall can make sense with as few as five points.

Slams were the order of the afternoon with

eleven pairs chalking up these honours.

Congratulations to the July 15 winners: North-South • Jeannie Yagminas and Audrey Jukes; • Janet Osborne and Ursula Endicott; • Gail Gamble and Eleanor Thompson.

IMPORTANT: All guests must be 19 or older with a valid gov’t issued photo ID to enter the SLOTS & The Dining Room. Anyone 19 – 25 will need to show a 2nd piece of non-photo ID. EXCEPTION – Sunday from 11 am to 10 pm, Wednesdays and Thursday 5 – 10 pm, Children must use the family entrance located on the south side of the building.

St. Joseph’s Open 2015 SJHS would like to extend an invitation to the

2nd edition of the Jaguar Open to all alumni or golf enthusiasts.

The tournament takes place on August 22nd at the Renfrew Golf Club. It is a 1 pm shotgun start and will be an afternoon filled with fun and some golf.

Cost -$80 per player.

18 holes, cart and dinner included.

Local trumpeter Alex Buttle is one of four young performers who will entertain at the Ottawa Music Festival concert Aug. 9 in Renfrew.

not enough homes for CAts AnD Dogs

Music fest to welcome ‘young performers’ at Renfrew concert The Ottawa Valley Music Festival has a proud tradition of encouraging talented young musicians through scholarships and by inviting young people from the Valley to perform at its concerts.

The Young Performers program began in the late 1990s and was sponsored by the Rotary Club of Eganville. On Sunday, Aug. 9, four of these young performers - now all grown-up - will return for a very special concert: Young Stars Return.

Trumpeter Alex Buttle, soprano Jessica Belanger, tenor Kevin Myers and cellist Brandon Wilkie will make a triumphant homecoming as they perform with the Ottawa Valley Music Festival in a program developed in collaboration with artistic director, Peter Morris.

The eclectic program will feature music by Schubert, Verdi, Strauss, Bartok, Gershwin, and Britten. The concert will also be the debut of the Ottawa Valley Music Festival’s new accompanist, Dian Wilkie.

The concert will take place at 3 p.m. at Trinity-St. Andrew’s United Church in Renfrew.

Tickets cost $25 for adults, $10 for young adults, $5 for students (with ID), and free for children 12 and under.

Tickets are available at http://www.ottawavalleymusicfestival.ca or by calling 613-6492429. More information about the concert and the Young Performer Scholarship Program is available at the Ottawa Valley Music Festival’s Facebook page.

This cat should have been spayed.

Spaying/Neutering prevents the births of cats and dogs for whom no homes can be found. In Canada, tens of thousands of cats and dogs are put to death annually in pounds and shelters because there are not enough homes for them.

And how many more die on the streets from sickness, injury and starvation?

PLEASE SPAY AND NEUTER YOUR ANIMALS.

GRAND ROUNDS Local No Frills surpasses goal A small, $2 dollar donation can add up to a big difference, as proven by the Sterling’s No Frills store’s recent “Give a Little, Help a Lot” campaign.

Our local No Frills store set out with a goal to raise $5,000 for I Choose RVH, but after only two weeks, June 12–26, of collecting donations from customers at the cash the final tally shattered that target.

Owner Kim Sterling says, “It was the biggest fundraiser we’ve had in years.

Under the leadership of head cashier Laurie Homsma, our cashiers and customers rose to the challenge raising $6337.”

Organizers offered special incentives to the staff for top sales—special

congratulations to best student seller Brittany Cabral, and to top overall seller Margaret Morgan.

Sterling proudly notes that of 250 No Frills stores across Canada, many of them in larger cities such as Toronto, our community raised the most money for this campaign.

“Our customers didn’t hesitate to donate to the hospital,” comments front end supervisor Theresa Cybulski.

“We, at Sterling’s No Frills, are very proud of this achievement and wish to thank our customers for their loyal support, and for their donations to RVH,” concludes Sterling.

Cashiers in the photo: Mary May, Linda Cybulski, Sue Cunningham, Jerry Mahusky, Norma McDonald, Theresa Cybulski and store owner, Kim Sterling. Missing are Brenda Lapenskie and Coleen Bennett.

From July 12-18 museum staff offered free admission for all children under 18, as well as interactive learning activities, crafts, face painting, games, and scavenger hunts. There were activities available for children of all ages, including trivia worksheets, a play dough table, and bracelet making. This week, staff focused on making the museum interesting and exciting to all children, while still ensuring an educational experience.

Though Kid’s Week has been successful in past years, the museum has never experienced such a high number of visitors. In just the first four days of Kid’s Week, more than 50 children came to the museum.

Staff members have embraced the flow of people.

“It is great to play and interact with the kids one on one and to get to learn their personalities,” said Lainy BoldtJohnson. Staff members have enjoyed participating in games, crafts, and many more activities with the children.

After such a good response to our Kids Week, The McDougall Mill Museum has begun planning two ‘Fun Dayz’ for children five-to-10 years old.

These fun days run from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. on Aug. 6 and 7.

The first day (Thursday) will be a pioneer themed day, aimed to educate children on life during pioneer times through activities and interaction. The second day is a craft and game day, full of fun and creative activities along with outside games. Children can participate in one or both of the fun days. Each day costs $10 (cash only), and snacks and drinks will be provided. Registration forms can be found at the McDougall Mill Museum or on

The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, July 23, 2015 35

Male hummingbird recovers from crash Betty Gauthier, Southside Way, Burnstown sent us this email: A tiny hummingbird recovered after accidentally flying into a window in our garage. He stunned himself and initially we thought he might have a broken wing. Our daughter, Fauve was visiting us from Ottawa and took over, gently picking the little bird up and holding it to drink from the nearby delphiniums which it usually fed at. It struggled a bit but regained its strength and drank from the flower. Five minutes later, he flew three feet away into an arbour and then about 15 minutes later it flew off into the nearby trees. We’ve seen it since sipping at the flowers, no worse for the mishap, a very successful recovery. Our daughter was amazed at holding the little bird in her hands and being able to assist in its recovery. Fauve gave the hummer proper care after

striking the window. She held the bird between her hands, kept it warm and protected before releasing it. We thank her for her interest and help.

Renewed singing

The cardinals that have been nesting near Tracey Marki’s home on Peter Street in Renfrew have renewed their singing an indication that they are about to nest again. Song is very important in the life of a cardinal. Both male and female sing equally well. They sing many different phrases in countersinging when one bird will sing a phrase and the

Dawn and Larry Thieverge had a northern flicker land on their lawn Sunday morning. It is the first time they have seen the species in town. Flickers are migrants and members of the woodpecker family but rather than feeding in trees they feed on the ground on ants. The red nape patch on the back of the head, black moustache, and broad black necklace are very good field marks.

Birds begin new round of nestings Continued from page 36

They have been known to lay their eggs in the nests of yellow warblers, chipping sparrows, cardinals, cedar waxwings and gray catbirds.

They will also lay eggs in the nests of yellow-billed cuckoos. Black down curved bill, bright red eye ring, long tail, grayish brown upperparts and dull white underparts are the best field marks.

A long, difficult trip

In March and April 2015, 67 Swainson’s and graycheeked thrushes were outfitted with radio-transmitters.

Four of these individuals were subsequently detected in Saskatchewan and Ontario during their northbound spring migration. A fifth was detected on its breeding grounds on the coast of Hudson Bay. In one remarkable example, a Swainson’s thrush that left the Colombian study site, a shade-

grown coffee plantation, on April 14, 2015 was detected in Chaplin Lake, Saskatchewan on May 18. The thrush made an astounding journey of nearly 3600 miles (6000 km) in just 34 days, flying at least 105 miles (175 km) per day for a month.

As more and more studies are conducted using radio transmitters we are learning more about the monumental feats of what many call our “delicate” birds. It is also amazing how this small bird that weighs one ounce (28g) can fly 3600 miles and find its way to the exact spot where it nested the year before.

Robins, bluebirds, cardinals, mourning doves, eastern phoebes, blue jays and chickadees have more than one brood and in some seasons more than two.

In most species fewer eggs are laid with each nesting as the season progresses. One year we found the same female laid four eggs in her first clutch, three in her second, two in her third and one egg in her last clutch. All fledged and all survived. You will be hearing some unusual calls as the young birds beg for food.

A young crow called 57 times from a tree near the Ottawa River begging for food before one of the parents arrived to feed it. I think this beggar will be on its own before long.

Enjoy your birding. Ila and Jim Ferguson, 5313 River Road, R R 5, Renfrew, Ontario K7V 3Z8, Phone 613432-2738 or email jameshf@ xplornet.com

More nestings

We are hearing more bird songs now that many species are beginning their second, third or even fourth nestings.

Some of the early attempts were destroyed by the late frosts we experienced in May.

Doctor of Medical Heilkunst & Dyn Blood Analysis

Montreal cousin brings circus to Renfrew County

BY MARY COOK

free, you better help me.”

I took the thread out of Mother’s sewing box...heavy black thread she used for buttons for our winter coats. Ronny had moved over to the back of the silo so no one could see what he was doing. He figured if he could get the bug harnessed and trained before anyone saw him, he was more likely to get away with charging for the show. The beetle was helpless on its back, but I was still terrified to give it more than an occasional glance. Ronny fashioned a harness of sorts from the thread and wrapped it around the bug’s gyrating body. Then he flipped it over on a rock and with a small twig prepared to embark it on its education. It scurried in every direction, and each time Ronny would bring it back to a starting position.

This went on in the beating sun for what seemed like hours to

me. I was anxious to get on with other things, and was reaching the conclusion that Ronny was never going to teach this beetle a thing.

But every time I started to move away, Ronny hauled me back to hold the harness. It became a battle of wills between the beetle and my Montreal cousin, and it very much looked like this was one war Ronny was not going to win.

I might have known Ronny was not going to give up easily on what could be a lucrative venture.

He dispatched me to the house to fetch the rest of the kids, and they were all to bring a cent with them if they wanted to see this spectacle. I had no idea what they were going to see for a cent, but I did exactly as I was told.

Everyone lined up beside the plank Ronny had arranged for the show, and he extracted a cent from every outstretched hand. Then he took the bug out of his hand and

gout

…get It out!

Gout is referred to as a recurrent attack of an acute inflammatory arthritis in the joints. The joints are usually red, very tender, hot and swollen. Gout often sets in in the feet or hands, but there are many other forms of gout able to appear throughout the body. It is caused by elevated uric acid level in the blood. The uric acid crystalizes and these crystals can deposit in your joints, tendons and the surrounding tissue.

I see these uric acid crystals frequently, when patients seeks me out to have their blood analysed.

Besides of course many other things we find in the blood, the uric acid crystals are very easily characterized due to their unique shape. As part of the Live Blood Analysis, I provide guidelines how to rid the body of these toxins in order to prevent conditions like gout to become chronic.

But even more frequent, I am treating patients for another condition and as a side comment they’ll mention their gout attack and discomfort. So, it happened recently with an older lady I’ve been treating for a while. She started complaining of a swelling in her foot and the “damn” throbbing pain.

“I can’t even wear any shoes!” she said annoyed.

The gout had set in on her right foot, on top of the foot, underneath and in her big toe. I gave her some remedies and at her next visit she smiled and said in her raspy voice: “This gout stuff is great stuff. I even told my daughter about it. The swelling is down, the throbbing pain is gone and I am getting my shoes back on.” she smiled. “This is the best thing that ever hit the market!” she laughed.

Mary Cook’s Memories

set it on the board. It never moved a fraction of an inch. He touched it with a finger. Then with a blade of grass. Finally he blew on it. It was either asleep or dead.

Seven pairs of eyes were glued to the beetle. Nothing happened.

Emerson wanted his money back.

So did Audrey. Everett said he was going to the house to tell Mother who had no tolerance for inhumane actions towards animals, be they big or small.

Ronny knew he had to do something, or he was going to have to give back the pennies he had collected. “Now I ask you,” he said. “Have you ever seen a bug in a harness?” We all agreed we hadn’t. “Have you ever seen a harness that small?” Again, we all said no. “Then that’s what you’ve paid for. You’ve seen two things today you’ve never seen before... the tiniest harness in Renfrew County...and a bug tied into it.”

He dusted off his knees, left the bug where it was still motionless, rattled the coins in his pocket... and headed for the pump for a drink. “I’d say, you’ve got your money’s worth,” he said without looking back.

Once again, we had been had by our Montreal cousin.

R0013385319

Mother talked endlessly about the sights of her beloved New York...all the things you could do that didn’t cost a penny, and of spectacles she was sure you could find nowhere else in the world.

We hung onto every word, and in our minds eye, each one of us five children created our own images of the glories of this great and wonderful city.

One summer day, when our Montreal cousins were visiting from Montreal, was a day I would never forget. It was a hot and sticky day, and we had taken refuge in the grape arbour...all sitting around Mother in the big wooden swing. Someone was fanning her with a copy of the Renfrew Mercury, as she told of the wonders of that city. Stories we never tired of. Even young Ronny, that incorrigible cousin who wasn’t easily impressed, was spellbound, as she talked about trains that ran on tracks high above the streets, and a place called an automat, where you could buy your lunch for a dime from a little glass window in a wall.

And then she told us for the first time about a circus that even in our wildest imagination we couldn’t fathom. It was a circus of fleas. She said they wore little harnesses, and their trainer showed them off in a magnified glass top case, and they obeyed his every command. We couldn’t imagine anything so fascinating.

Ronny’s eyes started to slit, and I could tell his fertile mind was working overtime, and that he was planning some deed, which was bound to get him into trouble.

And then story time was over.

Mother went into the house, and we kids scattered...some to get cooled off in the Bonnecherre… and some to get a cup of ice-cold water from the well. Ronny sort of slinked off towards the barn... but I never took my eye off him.

I knew he was up to something. I saw him walking slowly over the barnyard, stick in hand poking the ground, eyes cast down...and in the deepest concentration.

CARD OF THANKS

Thank You Marjorie Ziebarth The family of the late Marjorie Ziebarth of Pakenham would like to thank neighbours, friends, and extended family for your support during our mother’s short illness and subsequent death on June 8th, 2015. The flowers, donations, food, cards and visits were greatly appreciated.

To the staff and residents of the Villa, thank you for your caring nature, and for making her home away from home the last 3 years, the best it could be. To Dr. Jennifer Rivington, and the staff at ADMH, thank you for your compassion and care of Marjorie, we appreciated your help. To Chris Ryan and Brent Cavanagh, thank you for your beautiful music at her funeral, the selection was very much what she and Kenny loved, and a fitting way to send her off. To Melba Cavanagh, you speak from your heart, and for that we treasure you, thank you for your eulogy; you honoured your Aunt Marjorie.

Thank you also to the staff at Boyce’s Funeral Home; you know how to take care of families.

We try to hide our heartache, When someone speaks your name.

Sad is our hearts that love you, Silent tears that fall, Living our lives without you, Is the hardest part of all.

I feel a warmth around me like your presence is so near, And close my eyes and visualize your face when you were here, I relive our times together, they are locked inside my heart.

This week’s puzzle answers in next week’s issue

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 You are in for a treat this week, Aries. You finally get to experience the results of all of your hard work. Celebrate with a dinner out or a good party.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, calmly approach a difficult situation this week. Giving yourself time to carefully assess a problem will provide the most effective solution.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, a resolution to a problem you haven’t been able to solve is on the horizon. This will make things much easier in the long run, and your patience will pay off.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, since you are a friendly person and the life of the party, it should come as no surprise that everyone wants to be your friend.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, you desire quick answers, but no one seems to be moving at your pace this week. You might just have to buckle down and be patient. Answers will come in due time.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, a trip is enticing, but you have too many responsibilities on your plate to up and leave right now. You will have time to get away soon enough.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, take a hectic schedule day-by-day. Everything will get done in time, and you just need to have a little patience. Distract yourself this week.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Someone or something may have turned you off of making a large purchase, Aquarius. Discuss your sudden change of heart with someone close to you.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Don’t turn your world upside down to take on another project, Pisces.
