Community Living clients test their sea legs during a SkiAbility clinic at Burnstown Beach July 24. SkiAbility Ottawa has been partnering with Community Living for more than a decade to give clients the opportunity to try water skiing, sit-skiing, wakeboarding, or using an aqua plane – a board that allows people to lie down, kneel or stand. SkiAbility Ottawa works with people with any type of disability, at any age and experience level, said facilitator Ross Holden. The organization has training boards up to competitive level apparatuses, and works with novices to those who compete at the worldclass level. Braeside resident Steven Shane smiles while water skiing with instructor Christopher Holden.

Angie Fraser is the secretary for the Renfrew Minor Baseball board and the Ontario District 8 board, she says the Renfrew Blue Sox are very exREGION REGION cited for the tournament. The 13-member team has been practicing a lot this summer and is very excited to hit the field. “They have gelled nicely,” said Fraser. “They are playing well as a team.” They played three.COMgames last week and won one game and lost two in the playdowns. As host the Blue Sox have secured their spot in the championship. Fraser encourages everyone to come and cheer on the team. “The kids need the support,” said Fraser. “To my knowledge this is only the second time a Renfrew team has made it to provincials, so the town should come out and support them.” Jo-anne Caldwell, recreation program developer with the town thinks the tournament is an excellent opportunity to showcase what the town has. All of the games will be played at Ma-Te-Way Park and she also hopes the town comes out and supports them. “All the residents of Renfrew and area should come out and cheer them on,” said Caldwell. Caldwell hopes the team enjoys the experience. “I wish them all success and I hope they have fun.” The opening ceremonies start on July 30 at 8:30 a.m. For a full schedule see pages 44 and 45.
