Town considers outdoor pool Condos, hotel, spa proposed at Ma-Te-Way Activity Centre Peter Clark

News - Renfrew Councillor Clint McWhirter has approached the Renfrew recreation department with a proposal for the town to pursue an outdoor pool at Ma-Te-Way Park, to replace the Bonnechere Beach that closed decades ago.

Coun McWhirter said that, unfortunately, the beach has too many issues to reopen; among them water quality, river currents and undertows.

He noted to council that he had brought the issue up with the pool committee 10 years ago.

“They said they’d rather pursue the possibility of an indoor pool at that time,” the councillor said.

McWhirter has done research and spoken with different municipalities around the province to see if an outdoor pool was a viable and affordable idea. “I came to the rec committee with my proposal, and they unanimously agreed,” McWhirter said.

See OUTDOOR POOL, page 2

News - Boefor Development Corporation has big plans for three Renfrew properties, but Renfrew council has no intention of hurrying things ahead.

The redevelopment plan envisions a condominium at the old Ottawa Valley Grain property, professional office and internet café on the former Imbleau Foundry site, and a 35-room hotel and spa on the vacant lot across the street.

But a July 31 deadline set by the company doesn’t sit well with Renfrew Mayor Bill Ringrose and the

issue will be revisited at council’s Aug. 12 meeting.

At its July 15 session, council heard a presentation from Aleksandra Forster on behalf of Boefor Development Corporation on the subject of brownfields.

“Brownfields are properties that are typically vacant or unused, maybe are contaminated from past use of industrial or commercial or other purposes,” Forster explained.

“Because they are usually located near desirable or visual locations, we offer excellent development opportunities,” she told council.

Forster said brownfields redevelopment improves air, water and soil quality, and increases property values and the tax base.

Costs include phase one and two site assessments for potential contamination, soil and groundwater testing, risk assessments and environmental liability. This work has already been completed on the three sites.

Forester said all three sites would be cleaned up simultaneously.

“They present a unique development opportunity,” she told council.

“The 138 Argyle St. site would have 74 unit condominium apartments, which would add a new style of living for Renfrew with affordable condominium units for sale and for rent,” Forester said. The building would include two terraces, swimming pool and underground parking, as well as some ground-floor, wheelchairaccessible units.

Proposed for 118 Raglan is a professional office building with corporate offices, small business service centre and ground-floor Internet café.

The Bridge Street property would house a 35-room hotel with spa, conference rooms and banquet halls, and would cater to performing arts, art shows, weddings and corporate get-

aways.

“Guests will be able to get local information at a new visitor information centre before heading downtown to shop,” Forster added.

She said the project would create 40 to 50 jobs over the next two to three years, and generate an estimated $300,000 in tax revenue.

Boefor asked the town to waive demolition and tipping fees because the land is sitting empty, and waive planning and building permits and other development fees as Boefor would provide all new on-site infrastructure.

Boefer will purchase the properties, but has imposed a July 30 deadline to move ahead with the project, Foester said.

Mayor Ringrose said there is no way council can meet a July 30 deadline or something even close to that.

“We still have to develop a plan, and then we’ve got to get it passed. And then this council has to ask, ‘Are we prepared to offer incentives (to the developer?) Because we’ve never done that,” the mayor said.

“There are a number of hurdles we have to go through before we can say to the developer, on any project, yes, we have a mechanism in place; yes, we want to do it,” Ringrose said.

“And then we’ve got to find the money,” he stressed.

A community improvement plan to collect information will be put in place and brought back to council’s Aug. 12 regular meeting.

Hockey museum welcomed into the Renfrew ‘family’ Sherry Haaima sherry.haaima@metroland.com

News – Renfrew’s second annual Festival of the Family was a perfect opportunity to welcome the town’s newest attraction into Renfrew’s ‘family.’

The Birthplace of the NHA/NHL Museum on the second floor of the downtown post office building was officially opened in a midday ceremony Saturday, July 20.

“We’re all a big family here and we’d like to welcome the museum into the family,” said BIA chairman Mel Blimkie.

The museum is a natural fit in what Blimkie said he believes is “one of the most beautiful, vibrant main streets in the country.”

Joining museum officials for the opening was a number of dignitaries, including Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MP Cheryl Gallant, Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke MPP John Yakabuski, Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon and Renfrew Mayor Bill Ringrose.

Gallant congratulated officials on behalf of Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who is himself a huge hockey fan with a book on the subject set to come out by Christmas.

“Renfrew got it done,” said Gallant.

“We all look forward to watching this museum grow.”

Yakabuski agreed, encouraging everyone to visit the museum and spread the word.

“We need to get the word out – Facebook it, tweet it,” he said.

The town needs to be recognized for its proud hockey history.

“Congratulations to all the people who worked so hard to make this happen,” said Yakabuski.

Emon echoed their sentiments and said the county was in full support of the endeavour.

“The OVTA (Ottawa Valley Tourist Association) and the county will assist in promoting this as a stop for tourists and visitors,” he said.

Ringrose said the town was pleased to support the museum, having provided around $25,000 in start up funding and providing the

Among the local personalities helping to officially open the museum is Renfrew’s Tony Iob, who played 18 years of professional hockey, including 17 in Europe.

Descendants of Renfrew millionaire M.J. O’Brien who formed the National Hockey Association in 1909 after joining the ECHL Wanderers, were also on hand for the event.

Before the opening ceremonies, it was time for a good old-fashioned game of street hockey between the Renfrew Millionaires and the Renfrew Fire Department.

When all was said and done, the Millionaires came out on top 7-3.

The hockey museum is open Monday-Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and is closed on Sundays until September.

Your online auction bids buy kibble The Ontario SPCA Renfrew County Branch would like to remind supporters of their new online weekly auction, Kibble and Bids.

Money raised from Kibble and Bids will help to purchase food and cover a range of animal care expenses for the hundreds of unwanted, neglected and abused animals in Renfrew County each year. Kibble and Bids is an online auction and can be accessed by anyone with a Facebook account at www.facebook.com/KibbleandBids.

Every Monday at 7 p.m., photographs of new auction items will be added to the Kibble and Bids Facebook page and the bidding will start for a period of one week. Each one week bidding cycle will end the following Sunday at 9 p.m. This weekly online auction replaces the annual yard sale. Due to widespread community support and involvement the yard sale had grown beyond capacity. Those who had donated

items to the yard sale are encouraged to instead donate to the Kibble and Bids weekly auctions.

Lea Thompson, official co-ordinator of the yard sales in years past extends her best wishes for this new fundraising venture.

Fundraising initiatives like Kibble and Bids are essential to providing the financial support needed to maintain the standard of care for the animals. Ontario SPCA Renfrew County Branch manager Tracy McElman says, “Kibble and Bids online auction is a fun way to engage and interact with the community on a weekly basis while generating much needed funds for the shelter at the same time.”

For more information, call the Ontario SPCA Renfrew County Branch at 613-588-4508 or visit the “Kibble and Bids” Facebook page.

Some of the damage caused

by Friday afternoon’s storm on the Hurds Lake property owned

by Alex and Yolande Baillon.

TOWNSHIP OF McNAB/BRAESIDE

PHOTO COURTESY ALEX BAILLON

Meeting Schedule Change for the Month of August

Storm bashes properties on Hurds Lake steve.newman@metroland.com

Hurds Lake really felt the strength of Mother Nature’s punch last week.

Described as a microburst by Environment Canada, the tornado-like swath of wind and rain touched down in several parts of Renfrew County, causing some of its worst damage on Hurds Lake, just south of Renfrew.

A year earlier, a similar microburst cut across the county, leaving its strongest imprint on residents in and around Norway Lake, which, like Hurds Lake, is also located in Greater Madawaska Township. Last summer, thousands of trees were felled, many of them on top of buildings and vehicles.

The worst damage last week occurred in Petawawa, where cleanup continued early this week, after roofs were ripped off some buildings and debris was left everywhere, primarily from falling foliage and scattered debris.

Hydro One reported that intense thunderstorms with high winds and heavy lightning swept across Ontario, knocking out power to 195,000 customers in central and northeastern Ontario. This included 15,000 households serviced by Hydro One’s staff working out of Cobden.

Alex and Yolande Baillon were standing in the kitchen talking and drinking coffee with

three friends when the microburst touched down on Hurds Lake about 2:30 p.m. Friday.

“The storm came straight down the lake,” recalled Alex. “We could see a wall of rain coming. It rained so hard and beat so hard that 20 trees fell down on the property, and we never heard them (fall).”

He said several neighbours, including the Windle and Berry households, were hit hard.

“Quite a few lost trees, but I don’t think anyone got hit as hard as us,” surmised Alex.

“It (the storm) acted funny,” he added, “because it seemed to bounce around and knocked down trees on both sides of the house.”

The Hurds Lake scout camp and several other properties were left virtually untouched by the storm, said Alex.

However, the Baillons’ sizeable two-storey deck was destroyed by the mircroburst, while the rain hit so hard it ran under the enclosed patio door into the kitchen.

By Monday, the Baillons had brought in a trained crew of workers to deal with the excessive tree damage. Some things were covered by insurance, including the deck that was only completed last fall.

Another 400,000 Quebec households serviced by Hydro-Quebec lost power during Friday’s storm damage. Also, a woman in Boucherville, just south of Montreal, was struck by a falling pool-side tree and died.

Perth, Kingston, Peterborough, Sarnia and other Ontario communities received Friday tornado warnings, but tornadoes never materialized.

After dealing with power outages in the area, workers in Cobden’s Hydro One office were dispatched to other regions to help return electrical power.

A Hydro One official said Bancroft was among the hardest-hit area, as 29,000 households were left without power Friday.

Other areas with 7,000 households or more without power were Kingston, Bracebridge, Tweed, Orillia, Fenelon Falls and Cobden.

Supporting young entrepreneurs Opinion –There’s nothing like being your own boss and nine young entrepreneurs across Renfrew County will find that out firsthand.

The Summer Company program, which mentors and educates young people in considering entrepreneurship as a viable career option, recently kicked off for the year.

In its 13th year of encouraging youth to run their own businesses, the program is an initiative of the provincial government and administered by Enterprise Renfrew County.

This summer’s youth-run services range from website design, window-washing and furniture made from tree burls to acrylic landscape paintings, ice cream and grilled sandwiches.

The 2013 young entrepreneurs are Kristin Bennett (Dream Oasis Design), Hilary O’Neill (Valley Cool Treats), Elisabeth Dyer (Gimme It Grilled), Molly Miller-Hanneman (Molly’s Dance Company), Seerlee Dinnall-Archer (Inspire Designs), Tierney Cartman (Handy Help with Social Media), Maxwell Gillham (Reflections of the Valley art), Blair McMillan (Golden Lake Rustics) and Mitchell Ray (Window Brothers).

This is something more youth between the ages of 15 and 29 should be exploring.

Throughout the program, participants receive hands-on training and mentoring, to put them on a path towards success, which includes learning how to form your own business plan.

There’s another big incentive to give Summer Company a try as well: students receive up to $1,500 to help with the startup costs of their businesses, and an additional $1,500 once they return to school in September.

Invaluable business advice, the opportunity to make money and learn the ins and outs of being your own boss is a concept worth supporting.

Last weekend the second annual Art in the Park was held with great success and could not have happened without the above.

It was Lucy Hass of this newspaper who gave us great coverage and Don Logan and his capable crew of the recreation department who lugged tables and chairs.

Kudos to Dave Bennett of Event Tent and his boys who went over and beyond to make sure we had a stage. The local radio stations also rang with the news of the 31 artists taking part.

Like others in this community these people come to the plate when you need them.

Yes, our show was a success and the families that came enjoyed art, food and the kids’ zone.

There were a number of winners for a free draw of books from General Store Publishing so check our ad to see if your name is there. We hope to see you next year at Art in the Park, Renfrew.

News - Enhancing the economic capacity of the Algonquins of Ontario (AOO) is an indispensable element woven throughout the Preliminary Draft Agreement-in-Principle (AIP). From early in the treaty negotiations – and as set out in the Statement of Shared Objectives – the AOO, Canada and Ontario committed to expanding the economic opportunities for Algonquins while also benefitting and promoting general economic and commercial activities throughout the Territory.

The finalization of a modern-day Treaty will enrich the Algonquin presence across the Territory, including the nation’s capital, and build upon the Aboriginal presence and vitality within Canada. It will also build a foundation for increased economic opportunities for the AOO, while ensuring the cultural and social fabric of the Algonquin people is maintained and strengthened in years to come.

Together, the land and capital components proposed in the Preliminary Draft AIP will be critical to the future economic prosperity and cultural recognition of the AOO. The benefits of a secure land base and increased financial capacity will provide new investment opportunities as well as the ability to create new Algonquin programs and services, including education, training opportunities and health care initiatives. Such platforms will create key economic opportunities that nurture and respect longstanding cultural and spiritual practices of the Algonquin people, while providing the training and education needed to promote self-sufficiency and success in today’s economy.

The Algonquin people will also be equipped with the avenues to contribute to the decision-making process regarding forest management and stewardship. The AOO and Ontario are committed to working cooperatively to maintain support for the

existing forest industry, while increasing Algonquin participation in, and benefits from the forestry sector.

A treaty will provide for unparalleled economic development opportunities that will not only benefit the AOO, but will also provide a tremendous benefit to our neighbours living within the Territory. A Treaty will remove the barriers to economic growth created by existing uncertainties and contribute to a more stable social, political and economic environment with greater potential for regional economic development, jobs and growth.

The AOO recognize that increasing Algonquin economic capacity is inextricably linked to the broader economic development of Eastern Ontario. As our negotiations move forward, the AOO are already participating in a number of exciting economic development initiatives, including working with: • Various private sector proponents and the Ministry of Northern Development and Mines through the Mineral Exploration and Development Protocol Agreement • Rideau Transit Group as the project lead for the Ottawa Light Rail Transit project to explore the availability and use of Algonquin personnel, equipment and materials • Canada Lands Company through the CFB Rockcliffe Participation Agreement which establishes the direct participation and financial interest of the AOO in the development of one of the most desirable and valuable parcels of land in Canada Through the Preliminary Draft AIP, the Algonquins of Ontario are united in our commitment to finding “win-winâ€? solutions that will bring economic prosperity to Algonquins and our neighbours alike.

This column provides insights into Algonquin history, the foundation for the land claim, elements of the Preliminary Draft AIP and next steps in the journey. The next column will focus on the ongoing consultation efforts on the Preliminary Draft AIP. For more information visit www.tanakiwin.com.

A panoramic view of Cedar Lake in Algonquin Park, just one of the many beautiful lakes in Ontario’s provincial treasure. The provincial park is also a summer tourism hotspot.

Province announces increased protection for Algonquin Park Ontario government preserves more natural features Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources

News - Ontario is reducing the ecological footprint of logging in Algonquin Provincial Park while still maintaining a healthy forestry sector.

The newly-amended park man-

agement plan increases the amount of protected land within Algonquin Provincial Park by 96,000 hectares – one and a half times the size of the city of Toronto. The newly-protected parkland includes: • Almost 70,000 hectares along waterways, giving greater protection to naturally-sustaining Brook trout lakes, beautiful landscapes and backcountry recreation such as backpacking and canoeing • More than 14,000 hectares of zoning to enhance and connect existing wilderness zones

R0012212883

10 The Renfrew Mercury EMC - Thursday, July 25, 2013

• More than 12,000 hectares of nature reserve zones to protect natural wildlife habitats and outstanding landscapes This amendment is part of the government’s plan to keep Ontario’s parks beautiful and improve wilderness recreation opportunities.

“Algonquin Park is an incredible asset to our provincial park system and amending the management plan helps to ensure a balance between conservation and forest management,” says Minister of Natural Resources David Orazietti.

“Our goal is to preserve this important ecosystem for all Ontarians while allowing the sustainable use of our natural resources to generate socio-economic benefits,” he says.

QUICK FACTS

• The amended park management plan follows extensive consultation with park stakeholders.

• Algonquin Provincial Park is known as the crown jewel of Ontario’s provincial park system and is the oldest provincial park in the prov-

ince.

• Algonquin Provincial Park is 763,459 hectares in size – larger than Prince Edward Island.

• In 2012, Ontario’s provincial parks received more than nine million visits – 800,000 to Algonquin alone – and brought in $69 million in revenue, which supported jobs and businesses all across the province.

• Algonquin is the only provincial park to support forest management.

The Logging Museum at the park’s east gate pays tribute to this important economic activity.

Editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s note: Due to conďŹ dentiality issues with the agency, the names of scholarship recipients are not printed in full.

Community - Family and Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Services of Renfrew County held its annual general meeting June 27 at the Travelodge in Pembroke.

Sixty-six people attended the event chaired by Dave Jones where greetings were extended by Ministry of Community and Social Services/ Ministry of Children and Youth Services Eastern Region program supervisor Rick McInnes; Ministry of the Attorney General program manager, supervised access program, Judy Newman; MPP constituency assistant Laura Lapinskie and Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon.

Millennium Fund Scholarships were presented to four recipients. Entertainment was by Grace, Jesse and David who played guitar, violin and harmonica.

In their 2012-2013 report, executive director Tomicic and chair Jones noted that change take time, reciprocity and respect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the past year we continued our journey to strengthen service delivery, enhance community partnerships and develop a healthy workplace. The speciďŹ c goals have been identiďŹ ed in each of the three areas that are meaningful and measurable,â&#x20AC;? their report said.

Five logic models were developed that focus on: identiďŹ cation of service gaps and needs; safety for children and adults needing protection; service user participation in planning and evaluation; service to children and adults with intellectual disabilities; and strength-based service model.

The report also noted that the community engagement committee is moving forward with identifying strategies â&#x20AC;&#x153;to further our relationships with the community, regional and provincial partners in order to meet the needs of the families, children and adults in a better way.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The human resources and wellness committee has initiated consultations and developed steps to address the health and wellness of staff.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The creation of a corporate department will enhance ability of HR responsibilities to be more strategic, planned and consistent in supporting staff from orientation, coaching, mentoring, professional development, succession planning and recognizing achievement,â&#x20AC;? the report said.

Renfrew County FACS has also been selected as early adopters for CPIN (Child Protection Information Network) and work is being completed with our data systems in order to manage the transition successfully. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The move to the new provincial system is expected in February 2014,â&#x20AC;? the report said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The work is ongoing and will continue throughout the year; our IT, QA, ďŹ nance and service departments have participated in initial training and will continue preparing for this transition.â&#x20AC;?

The new funding model for child welfare has been implemented and provides a challenge to continue provision of services in the traditional way. As a result, review and enhancement of our service model and philosophy and organizational structure is required. In addition to internal reviews and efďŹ ciency assessments we are hoping to enhance our external image and are in the process of selecting our new logo and re-branding our communication tools.

Provincially, all our services are undergoing transformation and a new paradigm shift is emerging which involves creating solutions across service/organizational boundaries, consideration for shared services and innovative multi sector approaches. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the past year, we moved our organization forward, and made changes in our service focus and delivery that we hope resulted in positive outcomes for children, families and adults. Much has been done, but the work is just a beginning, and there is more to be accomplished in the next year,â&#x20AC;? the report said.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wish to recognize the exceptional work, commitment, motivation and creativity that have been given by staff, the Board, foster parents and volunteers. Without each and every one working collaboratively we would not be able to provide the service to our community as successfully. Our sincere appreciation for all that you do,â&#x20AC;? the report said.

Business - Mill Music has a good way to celebrate its 30th anniversary.

The Renfrew music store has been recognized as one of the top music products and instrument stores in the world.

The business, located at 25 Argyle St. N. in Renfrew, received a designation as one of the top 100 music instrument and product retailers in the world by the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM).

The award was presented to the designated Top 100 dealers at NAMMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual summer music event, Summer NAMM, held in Nashville, Tenn.

President and owner of Mill Music Renfrew, Stephen St. Michael, was in attendance to accept the award.

Music product retailers were judged using a numeric rating by a panel of impartial expert judges selected by, but not otherwise affiliated, with NAMM. Mill Music received this recognition because they: â&#x20AC;˘ Understand that great customer service is the key to success of a retail store; â&#x20AC;˘ Are a proven community advocate for music education and music-making; â&#x20AC;˘ Provide a retail experience worth returning for and recommending to others; â&#x20AC;˘ Design a floor plan, merchandising and marketing that encourages repeat sales; â&#x20AC;˘ Prepare for future success with sound planning, marketing and training initiatives; â&#x20AC;˘ Use the web and social media in engaging, effective ways.

St. Michael was quick to credit his staff at the store for their part in this achievement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was kind of surprised that we got the designation, but pretty proud of our store, too. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a good staff.â&#x20AC;?

He said it was an honour to be one of the few music retailers outside of the United States to receive this award. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were only two stores in Canada designated. We were one of them. The other was in Vancouver,â&#x20AC;?

St. Michael said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was a store from Brazil, one from Germany, one from Mexico, and one from (either) Denmark or Sweden, and all the rest were stores from the States. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So I think we did pretty well,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The NAMM retailers that made the Top 100 this year are creating the future of the music business,â&#x20AC;? said Joe Lamond, president and CEO of NAMM. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These retailers enthusiastically bring the tools of music making into their communities in innovative ways.

They grow with their customers. They enrich their neighborhoods. They are the ambassadors who encourage people of all ages to get out there and just play.â&#x20AC;?

Township receives defibrillators from Renfrew County paramedics peter.clark@metroland.com

News - The likelihood of saving a life has just moved up to another level in Admaston-Bromley Township.

At councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s July 18 meeting, County of Renfrew Paramedic Service district manager Rick Rogers presented two defibrillators.

One will be located at the Admaston Recreation Complex (ARC) and the other at the recreation building in Douglas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are very happy to present these external automatic defibrillators,â&#x20AC;? Rogers said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think that brings our total to close to 100 we have provided in the area of the County of Renfrew.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had some tremendous successes with these automatic defibrillators.â&#x20AC;?

Rogers noted that the paramedics provide free training. Groups can contact their office and they will come in and teach staff how to operate a defibrillator.

Last winter, there was a case when a man collapsed at Calabogie Peaks, Rogers recalled. Thanks to the use

of a defibrillator, the man had a pulse when paramedics arrived. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By the time we packaged and prepped him and flew him out, he was talking like I am to you,â&#x20AC;?

Rogers said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of numerous examples for something that is easier to use than my fishfinder in my boat.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great pleasure to bring two defibrillators to Admaston-Bromley, Rogers said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope you never need them, but if you do Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure glad that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve taken this step, and at no cost,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty excited by it, actually. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen some tremendous results.â&#x20AC;?

biggest that I have come across in my time on council,â&#x20AC;? Coun. Donohue added.

SUBMISSION DENIED

The Ontario Power Authority (OPA) released the listing of contracts awarded under the FIT program July 3.

The application submitted by AdmastonBromley for the roof at the Stone Road municipal office was rejected.

The township will receive its security deposit of $1,000 back and will

have its $500 application fee returned also. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cost us a dime to have applied,â&#x20AC;?

Coun. Donohue added.

Coun. Ray Pender noted that they broke even. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We found out our roof was safe. It cost us $1,500,â&#x20AC;? he observed.

Out of 951 FIT contracts awarded, 72 went to eastern Ontario and three within Renfrew County. They were an Aboriginal project for 500 kilowatts by Goshen Solar in McNab-Braeside Township, a community project for 500 KW

by Renfrew Solar Power in McNab-Braeside, and a health sector project for 190 KW by Renfrew County at Bonnechere Manor. If they wish, the township may reapply with OPA again in the fall of 2103.

ST. PADDYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S JULY 27

Douglas Recreation is working toward St. Paddyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day in July which is Saturday, July 27 at the Douglas rink and ball field, Coun. Pender reported. They will have tents set up so things

will be under cover. It also looks like they have a good lineup of musicians, Coun. Pender said.

It runs from 1 p.m. to 1 a.m.

Still with recreation, a very good junior volleyball program is going on Tuesday nights, Coun.

Pender said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I understand there are about 50 kids involved. This is in addition to the regular volleyball on Thursday nights.â&#x20AC;?

SUMMER STUDENTS

Admaston-Bromley

received 10 applications for summer student employment, and Kunopaski and clerk-treasurer Annette Louis interviewed three.

Upon confirmation that two grants the township received could not be used for only one person, two students were hired.

Carter Briscoe started July 8 and has been working with the roads department.

Michael Theriault has been hired as an assistant to the landfill sites and began July 13.

BUILDING PERMITS

Coun. Michael Donohue called the building and sewage report for June â&#x20AC;&#x153;a whopper.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the first time (itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) over two pages,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In fact, there are several new residential constructions and a couple of fairly significant renovations.â&#x20AC;?

The value of the building permits was $1.128 million. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That is certainly the

County of Renfrew Paramedic Service district manager Rick Rogers attended Admaston-Bromley council July 18 and delivered two defibrillators. The life-saving devices will be located at the recreation building in Douglas, and at the Admaston Recreation Complex. Accepting the defibrillators are Bob Hall, left, representing Admaston-Bromley, and Coun. Ray Pender on behalf of Douglas.

Pikwakanagan Chief Kirby Whiteduck, left, accepts a commemorative pen, fashioned in bird’s eye maple by county resident Jeff Muzzi, from Renfrew County Warden Peter Emon.

This expression of friendship came after Whiteduck led a June 26 presentation before county council on the municipal structure and activities of the Algonquin First Nation community near Golden Lake. Pikwakanagan, which means hilly place, has 2,248 affiliated community members, of which about 400 live on the 1,818-acre reserve along with about 50 unregistered family members. The other members live in other Renfrew County municipalities and across the country. In 2012, Pikwakanagan issued T-4 slips for partand full-time work to 194 individuals. Whiteduck said the presentation was intended to “provide more information on who we are and what we do,” as the only Algonquin First Nation group with an Ontario reserve. In thanking Chief Whiteduck, Emon said, “We greatly appreciate the many kindnesses and generosities of spirit and friendship you have offered over the years … One of the things I’ve repeatedly learned, in watching how you conduct yourself, is your diplomacy, patience and wisdom.”

Greater Madawaska council was awarded a grant from the Government of Ontario through its Ministry of Tourism Celebrate Ontario Program for the third annual event. These funds helped to secure the topnotch musical lineup for the 2013 festival.

“The Wynne government is proud to support local festivals and events

like the Calabogie Blues and Ribfest,” Minister of Tourism, Culture and Sport Michael Chan said in an April 10 news release. At that time, Greater Madawaska Mayor Peter Emon and Peaks’ president Murphy both noted the importance of such festivals to the local economy.

As well, athletes also competed in soccer, athletics (track and field), rhythmic gymnastics and golf.

While they always stress team play, coaches Belanger, Carolyn Gendron and Dan Murphy were quick to point to a highlight from the Games.

The Millionaires Raymond Goodyear hit the first over-the-fence home

run ever for a Renfrew team in the semifinal game.

He followed up with a second round-tripper in the championship contest.

“This was my first time coaching,” Gendron said.

“It was so inspiring, the teamwork and enthusiasm,.”

This was Renfrew’s first year of making the tournament a mixed event and the first time all funds raised stayed in the community. The format was a four-person scramble.

The ladies winning team was made up of Kim McDonald, Colleen Sheehan, Arlene Smith and Vi Rossy.

Mixed-team winners were Rick and Barb Desilets, Gloria Sinclair and Elle Vidler.

The day was enjoyed by all, but without our many sponsors and hole sponsor, we would not have been nearly as successful.

We would like to thank the many organizations and people who sponsored this event.

“There were 16 softball teams total in four divisions at the provincials this year.”

WOMEN’S INTERSECTIONALS

The Ottawa Valley Golf Association Women’s Intersectionals were held Monday, July 8 at Arnprior’s Madawaska Golf Club.

There are 13 divisions, with the Renfrew Golf Club in the F division.

The Renfrew ladies played very well, tying for second placed with Prescott with 15 points.

The Renfrew Club won second place by retrogression and will be the host for 2014 F division. Team members were Faye Warren, Kim McDonald, Anne Windle, Mary Peer, Christine O’Hara, Sheri Eady, Marion Knox and A.J. White. Well done, Renfrew!

Then, on July 13, under very sunny skies, we had our third qualifier of the season.

The sponsor for this net tournament was Fraser’s Clothes Shop with the following results: • A flight: 1st low net, Mary Ann Abrams and 2nd, Mary Peer.

Sports - The success of the Gil Read Memorial Fastpitch Tournament has created more interest and that will be reflected this year as the competition will feature a dozen teams, including some of the best on the continent.

The expanded, sixth annual men’s tournament opens Friday night, July 26 at the Carp Fairgrounds and continues all day Saturday (July 27) before concluding with the championship game late Sunday (July 28).

Among the entrants this year for the first time is the Micksburg Twins.

The Twins are one of seven teams in the tournament from the Greater Ottawa Fastball League (GOFL). They lead the North Division and the entire league at this stage of the campaign with an impressive 9-and2 record.

Also from the GOFL are host favourites Carp I4C Victory and Fitzroy Harbour West Carleton Electric who will battle it out in the same division.

The GOFL contingent will be led by three-time defending league champion Kars Aces.

Kars, the perennial district champions, currently leads the South Division of the eight-team league.

Other entrants are Quebec powerhouse Donnacona Blue Sox, Elkland Thunderbellys, a top-flight squad from Pennsylvania, along with two teams from Napanee and a new participant, the Sharon (Ontario) Lake

Simcoe Lightning. Sharon was champions of the Oshawa City and District Fastball League last season.

“It’s been a long ride but this year. For the first time, we were able to reach our goal of 12 teams for the tournament,” says Chris Read, son of the late Gil Read and one of the chief organizers of the competition.

Gil Read died in 2007 and the competition, to honour the memory of the longtime fastball coach, began at Carlington Park in Ottawa the following year.

The event was moved to Carp in 2010 to take advantage of superior facilities at the village’s popular fairgrounds.

“We actually had 16 teams who expressed interest this year. But we decided to go with 12. Still, it’s good for the future that so many teams are interested in our tournament now,” Read observes.

Last July the always highly rated Toronto Gators swept to victory in the fifth annual Gil Read classic in Carp, winning all six of their outings. They doubled Kars 8-4 in the championship game of the then 10-team tournament.

Unfortunately the Gators are not available to defend their title this July. But it’s expected Sharon Lightning will be a worthy new entry. They, along with Micksburg, are first-time entrants.

The participants have been split into three four-team pools. Four round-robin games are Friday night and 14 Saturday.

The top two clubs in each division, plus two wild cards, will advance to the playoffs

on Sunday.

Pool A will include Carp, Fitzroy, Micksburg and Napanee Juniors.

Pool B will be comprised of the Donnacona Blue Sox, Elkland, Stittsville 56ers and Manotick.

Rounding out the event in Pool C is Sharon, Kars, Barrhaven and Napanee Seniors.

MICKSBURG VS. CARP FRIDAY

Micksburg meets Carp in the Twins opener Friday at 9 p.m. The tournament final is slated for 3:30 p.m. Sunday.

The tournament winner will pocket $1,800 while the runner-up takes home $700. The third and fourth place entries receive $250.

To add a little spice to the proceedings on the final day of the venture, a home run derby has been scheduled. It will take place between the quarter final and semi-final games on Sunday.

A day pass for the tournament is $5 per person while a weekend pass is $10. Children under 12 years of age will be admitted free and there will be lots of activities on site for youngsters.

All proceeds will go to the Gil Read Memorial Foundation which helps children who are less fortunate compete in sports across the City of Ottawa.

Honoured are McNab-Braeside firefighters Captain Karen Baroski and Direct Fire Chief Andrew Mohns, and Deslaurier Custom Cabinets co-owner Jim Deslaurier. Captain Baroski and Chief Mohns worked with St. John cadets to earn their proficiency in fire safety. The cadets learned how to recognize fire hazards and take immediate action to prevent or fight a fire. They were also given a tour of the fire hall. Deslaurier, on behalf of Deslaurier Custom Cabinets, donated a new countertop for the kitchenette area at the Renfrew training centre. Missing is John MacIntyre, who donated time and skills as an engineer to design fire separations for the Renfrew training location. This helped secure a building permit for that site.

1938: New dam replaces old one JULY 25, 913

Lifestyle - MORE REAL ESTATE SALES: This week Mr. D.W. Budd disposed of the double house of the K. McLaren estate, just north of the Bonnechere Hotel, to Messrs. John Deyell and George Morrow. All of the estate now unsold is the corner lot next to this property, opposite to the residence of Mr. W.A. Mackay and 74x95 feet in size.

POOR APPLE CROP: The apple crop throughout the Dominion promises to be only half the usual, and in this district the orchardists would be happy if they could count anywhere near that. On the second line, we are told, it will be difficult to get exhibits of even a plateful of many varieties for the fair. Box exhibits are likely to be scarce.

OLGA LEWIS From the Old Files extruded magnesium alloys. A recent contract for snowshoes for the American Army prompted the expansion in Renfrew. The project, which will cost approximately $194,000, has already created six new jobs and plant manager Stewart Findlay expects there will be more workers needed in the fall.

NEED A BAND: A group of 21 young musicians, senior high school and university age, has been formed to provide low-cost, good quality musical entertainment to the citizens of the Valley.

NEW DAM REPLACES OLD ONE: The new power dam for Renfrewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s municipal power plant will be built a little further downstream where the channel is somewhat narrower.

Preliminary work began after Town Council approved the recommendation of the power and light committee. Change in location of the dam, coupled with extra height, will make for the development of additional electric force. A dam of concrete will succeed one of wood and stone constructed about 40 years ago and now regarded as liable to give way before spring freshets.

VISITED TOWN ON ANNIVERSARY OF BIRTH: Mr. J.H. Mills, a visitor in Renfrew a few days ago, was born in this place, and came here on the 70th anniversary of his birth to see, on Opeongo Street, the house in which birth occurred. Accompanying him were his wife and grandson.

Mr Mills, a member of the collegiate staff here in 1900 and 1901, is still engaged at pedagogy, with residence in Toronto. An old friend, Mr. D.W. Stewart, showed him around.

(3"/% 306/%4 RVH staff supports one of their own Staff on the Active Care Unit at Renfrew Victoria Hospital really wanted to find a way to support Russel Leclair and his family during a very difficult time.

Leclair, who is a registered practical nurse in the unit, has seven children and his five-year-old was recently diagnosed with stage three cancer. His son, Tristan, has had surgery to remove a Wilms tumour in his kidney and is undergoing chemotherapy at CHEO for the next several months.

Staff from the Active Care Unit donated items for a “Summer Party Bucket” and sold raffle tickets on the bundle of summer fun goodies. In addition to the raffle, they organized a bake sale, with staff from every area of the hospital contributing baked goods for a good cause. Active Care staff also held a yard sale to help raise funds, and again there was an outpouring of support from staff all over the hospital donating items to be sold.

Jessica Gilbert, Clinical Nurse Manager of the Acute Care Program at RVH, is amazed by the generous spirit of all the staff and all the departments at RVH in support of the Leclair family. “They should be commended for their efforts, as many of them have gone above and beyond to raise funds.

It is very touching to know that when faced with hardship members of the RVH team respond with such tremendous generosity.”

Chris Ferguson, RVH Vice President of Patient Care Services, concurs with Gilbert.

“The RVH culture of being there for others in a time of need is remarkable, and this is a good example of the effort that is put into helping those you work with!” she says.

Leclair has been nursing at RVH for three years and says the hospital is the best place he has ever worked.

“I’ve never really seen this level of generosity first hand, especially in the workplace,” he says of the support he’s received.

Leclair also notes that his coworkers are quick to cover his shifts, if needed, so he can accompany Tristan on the weekly trip to Ottawa for treatment. “Everybody comes together, no matter what the situation,” he says.

“It makes you feel welcome and part of a team.”

According to his dad, Tristan is doing okay—he says they were lucky to find the tumour when it was relatively small and credits the resilient nature of children for Tristan’s good attitude. He’s taking the change to his daily routine—no school, no swimming, no sandbox—due to low white blood cell counts

and increased risk of febrile neutropenia (fever/infection) in stride.

Leclair says the support at work and the fact that he is able to be there for Tristan are huge for him and his family. “I want to extend my immense gratitude for all that the RVH staff has done for us. I’m just flabbergasted.”

On behalf of all RVH staff members, Gilbert sums up, “Our thoughts and prayers are with Russel and his family during this very difficult time and we hope that we can continue to support them.”

Russel Leclair, RPN, RVH Active Care Unit, second from left, receives fundraiser proceeds raised by his coworkers to help his family through his son’s illness.

Connected to your community

Community - This Saturday, July 27 the McDougall Mill Museum will be hosting its second annual Museum Ghost Walk. This year the museum has made a few changes, guided tours and new stations have been added. There are three different time slots for guided tours: the early tour is 8 to 9 p.m., late tour 9 to 10 p.m.; and Night Owl tour 10 to 11 p.m.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Be Afraid museum ghost walk this weekend Holly Mahusky McDougall Mill Museum

Tickets can be purchased in advance at the McDougall Mill Museum, as limited space is available!

Tickets will be sold at the door on a first come first serve basis! Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not too late to buy advanced tickets, as the museum is open daily 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. All ages are welcome, but it is suggested that an adult accompanies younger patrons. Be sure to bring

your flashlight!

This past week was the McDougall Mill Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual Kids Week. Kids of all ages came down to the museum and participated in our interactive passport program. After completing their passports visitors had their face painted and got to have their very own star on the Kids Week Walk Of Fame! It was a great time

for all! Be sure to keep watching the paper and our Facebook page for more events coming to the museum soon!

The trivia answer for last week was John Lorne McDougall, who also built the McDougall Museum.

This weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trivia question is: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Who was the first female mayor of Ottawa?â&#x20AC;?

Father’s patience runs out for summertime picnic

Mary Cook Memories

Lifestyle - All Mother needed for an excuse to have a picnic was a sunny and hot Sunday afternoon.

After church, of course.

Father, who thought the whole idea was nonsense, when you could spend the afternoon, having a little nap in the grape arbour.

“That once-a -year church picnic is enough for me,” he lamented.

Father’s resting in the summer often moved him from the rocking chair in the kitchen with his feet on the oven door of the Findlay Oval, to the grape arbour, where an old lawn chair and the two-seater swing sat in the cool haven of the overhanging grape leaves.

But, of course, as for the Sunday picnic, Mother overruled and we five children were thrilled beyond belief... we would be spending the afternoon on the banks of the Bonnecherre.

It was a hefty walk to get to the river, overloaded as we were with baskets of lunch, bats and balls, our swim suits

and towels, Mother’s newspapers, scrap books and diaries, and always I had to take at least one doll with me too.

As long as Father had his pipe and a good supply of tobacco that was about all he was interested in lugging down to the Bonnechere.

The cook stove would be allowed to go out on Saturday night.

That meant a cold breakfast, which further annoyed Father, who didn’t consider any meal worth pulling a chair up to the table for, unless it included meat and potatoes as part of the menu.

But Mother let the stove die down because that meant a nice cool kitchen when we got back from our picnic on Sunday, a rare treat from a stove that blasted out blistering heat waves 24 hours a day every other day of the week.

As soon as we got back from church, and while the boys and Father tended to the last minute chores at the barn, Audrey and Mother would haul out of the ice box bowls of food that had been prepared the night before.

This meant hard boiled eggs, mashed fine, sliced cold pork and roast beef, cucumbers, lettuce and tomatoes, and of course, a slab cake smothered in brown-sugar icing.

It didn’t take long for thick sandwiches, sliced vegetables and a huge sealer of iced tea to be ready to pack into 11 quart baskets, all wrapped in an ample supply of clean flour bag tea towels.

We had enough food to feed half of Renfrew County!

As much as could be, would be piled on the little wagon with the wobbly tin wheels, and which I used to hitch our old collie dog to, to pull my dolls around the yard.

But it was better than lugging the heavy baskets down to the river.

We always went to the same spot on the Bonnechere.

This was where the old maple tree had long since fallen across the narrowest part of the river, and where there was a wide grassy bank and more trees.

My sister Audrey spread out two blankets and covered the little wagon with another

to keep the lunch as cold as possible.

Wearing short pants for bathing suits, my brothers were in the water almost as soon as we hit the river, Mother had propped herself against a tree with her books and papers spread around her, Audrey and I hid behind a tree and stripped off our clothes and got into two suits Aunt Freda had sent us from Chicago. They were scratchy, made of pure wool, and as soon as they were wet, went as hard as cement, but they were all we had.

Father walked around with his pipe hanging out of his mouth, not looking at all pleased. He asked Mother when she planned on taking out the lunch, lamenting that what he had for breakfast couldn’t really be called a decent meal. Mother said lunch was a long way off, and he might as well settle down and have a little nap.

The afternoon wore on.

Emerson said he didn’t care if we ever went back home. The three boys had water fights, tried to catch fish with a make-

shift pole, and jumped off the fallen tree to see who could land the farthest. Audrey was reading her books gotten from the Renfrew Library and I was playing with my doll, pretending she was a brand new baby and this was her first outing on a picnic.

Well, Father never did settle down for a nap. He walked the shoreline, he lit and relit his pipe, and when he finally sat down with his back against a tree, he never took his eyes off the blanket covering the lunch.

“Think I’ll head back to the barns to check on that cow that didn’t look too good this morning,” he said. Even though we had yet to eat the lunch, I knew Father wouldn’t be back. And I knew too, the cow had little to do with it.

When the sun was heading for the west, and we had eaten the lunch, the boys had dried off, and everything was packed onto the little red wagon, Father still hadn’t come back. Mother assured me he would be just fine.

“He just doesn’t like picnics,” she said. We gathered

up our belongings and started for home.

I saw it before anyone else.

There was smoke coming out of the chimney over our house! Mother just let out a long and laboured sigh when I pointed it out to her.

We opened the kitchen door to blazing heat, and there was Father sitting at the old pine table. He hadn’t bothered taking off his straw hat, and in front of him was a dinner plate piled high with fried potatoes, slabs of salt pork, and enough buttered bread to feed a family of six! The white granite tea pot was boiling on the stove, and Father had opened a jar of preserves and they weren’t in a fruit nappy, but in a soup bowl!“Well, so much for a nice cool kitchen,” was all Mother said.

Finally, Father stopped shovelling in his food long enough to look up from his plate and say to Mother.

“A man can’t be expected to work from dawn to dusk and survive on a sandwich and a piece of cake,” and then taking another long slurp of hot tea from his saucer.

Ottawa Valley Tourism Ambassadors pose with Simple Things & Garden Café co-owner Mark Gauci. Located in Beachburg, Ontario, Mark and his staff treated the group to ice coffees, lemonade and homemade scones after a morning of rafting on the Ottawa River.

Ottawa Valley adventure information centres open Community - Renfrew County Adventure Information Centres, previously known as Visitor Information Centres, are now open and ready to welcome visitors to the Ottawa Valley.

In preparation for the opening of the centres, the Adventure Information Centre (AIC) staff, also known as Tourism Ambassadors, recently participated in a three-day familiarization (FAM) tour to various tourism businesses throughout the Ottawa Valley.

Organized and hosted by the Ottawa Valley Tourist Association (OVTA), the tour is designed to: increase the staff’s overall understanding of the unique tourism products in the Ottawa Valley; provide an opportunity for them to experience first-hand the services and hospitality of OVTA members; and give them a better understanding of the travel time and distances between geographic locations.

Prior to the start of the tour, staff attended a full-day Service Excellence workshop at the Renfrew County Administration Building. The workshop was facilitated by Ontario Tourism Education Corporation and tailored to meet the specific needs of Renfrew County AICs. The workshop, provided by the OVTA in partnership with Ontario’s Highlands Tourism Organization, taught the staff behavioral guidelines, effective communication skills and

problem solving; how to deal with difficult customers and challenges; the recovery process, and more.

The end result is having well informed and knowledgeable people providing tourism information about the Ottawa Valley.

“The Adventure Information Centres are vital points of access for tourism information for hundreds of thousands of tourists who visit the Ottawa Valley every year,” noted OVTA communications co-ordinator Lauren McIllfaterick.

“It is important for the staff to be well informed about the Ottawa Valley.”

Discount Car and Truck Rentals in Pembroke continues to be a major sponsor of the annual FAM tour, generously donating the use of two vans and one car which the group used to visit tourism sites across the Valley. Understanding the importance of the tour and the value of having well-informed staff, numerous OVTA tourism operators welcomed the group to their businesses and sponsored various activities and meals.

Stops included RiverRun Rafting, Simple Things, Logos Land Resort, Pinto Valley Ranch, Antrim Truck Stop, O’Brien Theatre (Arnprior), Arnprior & District Museum, Robert Simpson Park, Calabogie Motorsports Park, The Calabogie Rustic Furniture Company, The Fans of Calabogie Bed & Breakfast, The Ca-

nadian Clock Museum, Valley Artisans’ Co-op, The Country Cupboard, Petawawa’ Centennial Park, Petawawa Heritage Village, Hugli’s Blueberry Ranch and the Champlain Trail Museum.

“It is wonderful how the annual AIC FAM tour moves around the Valley – alternating between the highway 17 and the highway 60 corridor.

“The product knowledge the tourism ambassadors gain from the tour is good business for us all. Their first hand experiences will not only help keep tourists in the Ottawa Valley longer but keeps them coming back,” said OVTA president Chris Hinsperger.

There are 10 Adventure Information Centres located throughout Renfrew County including Arnprior, Calabogie, Renfrew, Cobden, Pembroke, Petawawa, Eganville, Killaloe and Barry’s Bay. Visit www.ottawavalley. travel for a list of the AICs’ dates and hours of operation.

The Centres and knowledgeable Tourism Ambassadors are great resources for both tourists and locals alike.

The OVTA is the Ottawa Valley’s official destination marketing organization, proudly representing more than 250 tourism businesses and suppliers.

Eastern phoebes require some help from us

IMPROVEMENT SEEN

There is good news regarding humming birds from Regina and Ray Puhalski.

At the beginning of the season, we had our usual complement of three or four male hummingbirds. Later in the season, we had four hummers with a total of three or four offspring then they all left. We are somewhat pleased that as of this morning, we saw the two males and one female at our feeders.

Most times we have two or three feeders on the go but only two this year.

Regina and Ray: we should note that the male will mate with the female and then disappear leaving her to build the nest and care for the young. When she brings her brood to

JIM FERGUSON Scene from the Hawkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eye the feeders she will chase the males away.

NUMBERS DOWN

We have a trailer over on Constant Lake.

Last year there were so many hummers it was incredible. This year we have noticed the same situation over there as at home.

The Hummer population is down in a big way in both areas. I knew that cold and damp weather would be detrimental but had no idea it would be to this extent. Even with the strong sugar water it appears we were not able to save them. I find that very disconcerting. Jim and Ila, is there anything else you can think of we could have done to help them through that bad weather? In case there is a next time, any suggestions would be very much appreciated. Sincerely, Moya Brakele. Moya: all we can do is keep making food available for them and hope they will return. No idea yet how the storms last Friday affected them.

GREEN HERONS

We now have four baby green herons, using our pine trees as jungle gyms. Last year they ended up in our pond. They seem to have fledged from the nest only a few days

ago. Their bright yellow-green legs are very eye-catching. Kimberley Guilmette Kimberley: The young grow very quickly and will soon be moving to other areas to fish and hunt for food.

NUMBERS FROM PREVIOUS YEARS

Hi Jim and Ila, last year was a bumper year for hummingbirds, this year we have two or three only. We saw a kestrel today but we are seeing few this year. Hawks seem to be down in general. We get a broadwinged visiting, but that might be just one bird. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re missing red-tail hawks, merlin JIM FERGUSON and harriers; they seem to be considerably An immature eastern phoebe. down from previous counts. The field birds are doing their best, but not upland sandGreat for pipers, they are rare this year. Barn swallow Rain or teachers, da y Shine! young have fledged, tree swallows are still ca re providers, e sale preschool down dramatically from previous numbers. wTh ill be held teachers an d indoors.

There are increases in mourning doves and parents! robins and they seem to be having a good year. No significant change noticed in warblers or flycatchers, however. We used to see more loons on the lake, but there are more outboard motors around to discourage them. In waterfowl, we see mostly mallards.

Renfrew Christian School I think wood ducks have done well over the last few years. Is it just our impression, or 354 Stewart St. are there fewer geese? The turkeys continue their march forward. All the best.

Lifestyle - A pair of phoebes revisited a nest earlier and had three youngsters who fledged. The parents had a second brood and I just looked into the nest as it has been quiet for three or four days. One chick had fallen out a few days ago but was already very sickly looking. Sores and open spots on its body. Another chick was dead in the nest.

The parents had been very attentive with feeding and care. Julia Dawn Julia: After each brood fledges the nest has to be completely destroyed: burning is best. It is not enough to take the nest down because the female will just pick up the pieces and reassemble them, parasites and all. Pairs will use the same nest, with all the parasites for a second brood. The results are as you have described: some chicks dead, some with sores (insect bites) and some appear very sickly. The insects will eventually destroy all the young.

Cruising summer shorelines This spotted sandpiper, common near fresh water, checks out gardens along the shoreline. Mercury columnist Jim Ferguson shares some interesting facts about the bird. It is he only species where the female is aggressive during the mating ritual. The male builds the nest, incubates the eggs and raises the young, polygamous. The female lays the eggs and then leaves to find a new mate. She may have as many as four different mates and may stay to help one with the nesting duties. The sandpiper walks along the make or river share and bobs up and down. They also fly on stiff wings.

LEVI - In loving memory of a dear Wife, Mother and Grandmother, Helen Elizabeth Levi, who passed away July 21st, 1987.

We do not forget her, because we loved her dearly, For her memory to fade from our lives like a dream, Our lips need not speak when our hearts mourn sincerely, Grief often dwells where it seldom is seen.

Lovingly remembered and sadly missed by the family.

A Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Grief A year has gone by on July 29. I lost my beautiful, vibrant daughter Lisa Roesler.

As I often look over the words I read that still so surreal day of Aug3; To awaken into this nightmare I had voiced many times.

The loss of you (Lisa) in this world is such a crime.

The truths of that evening would hopefully change In protecting, responsibility, acceptance, not blame.

I know that my heart will never mend.

I will ache for you weep for you until my life end.

You will always be my Sweet Pea. Love Mom.

To Lisa, you were special and beautiful the day you were born, and all through your short life, Many friends were formed.

I miss you so much, Each and every day.

My words canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t express What I want to say.

I love you forever and one day youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see, We will all be together.

Arlene, you and me.

In loving memory of John Boese who passed away July 23, 2010.

In loving memory of a dear mother, wife, daughter, sister and aunt who left us July 26, 2007 Remembering her with a smile today, As she was not one for tears, Reflect instead on memories, Of all the happy years.

Recall to mind the way she spoke, And all the things she said, Her strength, her courage, Her caring soul, Remember these instead.

The good advice she gave us, Her eyes that shone with laughter, So much of her will never die, But live on ever after.

In our hearts, We thought of you today, But that is nothing new, We thought about you yesterday, And days before that too.

We think of you in silence, We often speak your name, Now all we have are memories, And your picture in a frame.

Your memory is our keepsake, With which we’ll never part, God has you in His keeping, We have you in our hearts.

Doris, Warren, Karen, Ian, Paul, Sheryl, Tracey, Gerry, and Grandchildren.

As we loved you, so we miss you, In our memory you are near, Loved, remembered, longed for always, Bring many a silent tear.

Ever remembered and sadly missed, Your loving family
