COMMUNITY

WOMEN TOUCHED BY BREAST CANCER WALK IN FASHION SHOW AT LOCAL FUNDRAISER EVELYN HARFORD ehar ford@metroland.com "They are not walking this journey alone," said Kathy Botham, MC of the Small Town Feeling Breast Cancer Fundraiser.

Models, all touched by breast cancer, walked the runway, in the company of loved ones and supporters, during a special fashion show put on at the third annual fundraiser, held at the Settlers Ridge Centre in Smiths Falls on Wednesday, Oct. 10.

Breast cancer survivor Heather Currie-Whiting was one of them. CurrieWhiting was diagnosed with breast cancer two days before her 45th birthday, in March 2015. She shared her journey on social media.

"It helped a lot," she said of sharing her experience with others. "When you're really feeling sick, to know there are 100 people behind you, it feels good."

During treatment, Currie-Whiting still made her way out to Movies Under the Stars when she could.

"I wasn't very helpful," she said. "But they made sure there was space for me if I needed it."

Currie-Whiting said getting out to events, even if she couldn't do much to help, was beneficial to her while going through her very personal battle. Help wasn't far away, either.

Currie-Whiting said her friends, family and neighbours were there for support and to bring food over to her home to help her family eat well while she was sick.

"That's probably a small-town thing," she said.

For most of 2015, CurrieWhiting went through radiation and chemotherapy treatment.

"It's one step at a time," she said of treatment. "The chemo is hard."

Currie-Whiting said

THE ISSUE: BREAST CANCER IS THE MOST COMMON CANCER AMONG CANADIAN WOMEN LOCAL IMPACT: LOCAL CANCER SURVIVORS STRUTTED THEIR STUFF AT FUNDRAISER TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE CANADIAN CANCER SOCIETY

Evelyn Harford/Metroland Local breast cancer survivor Heather Currie-Whiting walks the runway during a fashion show put on at the third annual Small Town Feeling Breast Cancer Fundraiser on Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2018, at the Settlers Ridge Centre in Smiths Falls. that although it is hard, it does end.

"Suddenly you wake up, and it's done, and you start to recover," she said.

In 2016, she got the allclear from the doctor. Despite the all-clear, she will have to be monitored through regular checkups.

Currie-Whiting ex-

plained that she has the "Angelina Jolie gene," which led to her having a second mastectomy and her ovaries removed as a preventive measure. The BRCA1 gene, which put Jolie at very high risk of getting both ovarian and breast cancer, led to her getting a preventive double

mastectomy and her ovaries removed. Currie-Whiting went through the same in an effort to mitigate risk.

But with pain comes positivity.

"I looked at it as an adventure," said CurrieWhiting. The diagnosis came with new experienc-

es - like getting an MRI, she said.

"If someone would give me the front seat, I'd call it a cancer perk," she joked. "I looked for positivity anywhere I could."

And, she said, events like the Small Town Feeling Breast Cancer Fundraiser is a great way to bring positive energy to those touched by cancer and to raise funds for cancer research. Currie-Whiting has attended for the See FUNDS, page 5

WHY VOTE FOR TRUSTEES? School board trustees hold the only democratically elected office that is solely responsible for education. A trustee is responsible for identifying the needs and priorities of their community and for ensuring these are considered in the decisions that result in practical educational opportunities for students. It is the local trustee who makes sure that the community has a direct way to express its views on vital education decisions that affect our day-to-day lives. You have the right to vote for who represents you in these important matters.

WHO CAN VOTE? To vote in a school board election in Ontario, you must be aged 18 or older and be a Canadian citizen.

If you are a resident of a municipality, you are eligible to vote for school trustee. If you are the owner or tenant (or spouse of an owner or tenant) of residential property in a municipality, you are eligible to vote for school trustee. Note: School boards can cover large areas of the province and include many municipalities. You are only allowed to vote for the same school board once.

If you are eligible to vote in a municipality because you are the owner or tenant (or spouse of an owner or tenant) of a commercial property there, you are not eligible to vote for school trustee.

WHAT DO TRUSTEES DO? School board trustees are the members of a school board. They are locally-elected representatives of the public, and they are the community’s advocate for public education. They are required to carry out their responsibilities in a manner that assists the board in fulfilling its duties under the Education Act. A trustee’s role is to maintain a focus on student achievement, well-being and equity and to participate in making decisions that benefit the board’s entire jurisdiction while representing the interests of their constituents. Trustees must also communicate the views and decisions of the board back to their constituents.

FUNDS RAISED TO SUPPORT THOSE WITH CANCER Continued from page 2

past three years.

"I'm sure I'm alive today because of cancer research," she said. Currie-Whiting said she wanted to support the fundraiser's organizer, Christine Bles, whose own mother is a breast cancer survivor. Bles' mother, Carol Saumure, walked the runway, too.

According to the Canadian Cancer Society, in 2017, an estimated 26,300 women were diagnosed with breast cancer, representing a quarter of all new cancer cases in women that year. Last year, 5,000 women died from breast cancer in Canada, representing 13 per cent of all cancer deaths in women.

Despite these stark statistics, there's good news, too.

The breast cancer death rate has been declining since the mid-1980s, likely due to the impact of screening and improvements in treatment for breast cancer, according to the Canadian Cancer Society.

Citizen of the Year Jackie Coldrey, who is currently in the midst of her battle with breast cancer, watched as those who have survived walked past.

Just over two weeks before receiving her award in May, she underwent her second partial mastectomy. Coldrey received her diagnosis this past March - on her husband's birthday. Despite receiving the horrendous news, Coldrey still went out that day to get her husband's birthday gift.

"I was really moved by that," said Col-

drey's husband, Rick.

Coldrey is finished with chemo and now is prepping for radiation.

"It's been a little bit of a lonely experience," said Coldrey. "They're (people are) afraid to bother you."

Through the treatments, she said, they've also be discovering what great friends they do have. Neighbours, family and friends have been offering to help where they can.

And, said Rick, coming out to events like the Small Town Feeling Breast Cancer Fundraiser provides an opportunity for the two of them to get out.

"It's really important," he said.

The small-town feeling wasn't lost on the Canadian Cancer Society's representative at the event.

"This is probably one of the most hometown events I've been to," said Roger Martin, the Canadian Cancer Society's senior manager for Ottawa region. "There's a lot of passion in this room. What a great community. I love it."

Proceeds from the Small Town Feeling Breast Cancer Fundraiser will be donated to the Canadian Cancer Society.

COUNCIL

PARROT RESCUE PLEAS FOR ACCOMMODATION FROM TOWN Continued from page 1

why council should consider a specific bylaw to allow for homebased rescues like hers.

Feathered Haven Parrot Rescue is able to run thanks to a network of in-home foster parents, a certified avian veterinarian, donations, and Woods' expertise in vetting, screening and quarantining birds. The eventual goal is to adopt out the birds to good homes with responsible owners.

Woods, after being questioned

by Coun. Dawn Quinn about how this issue arose, reported that her first visit from town officials was due to the suspicion that she was harbouring a wild bird. Woods said at that time she explained that it was legal for the bird to be in her home.

Woods said the next visit from town officials was due to a complaint that she was making money from a rescue. Woods said at that time she explained that the

rescue's adoption fee in no way covers their vetting fee.

Woods explained to council that the with adoption fees - $600 for the large birds and $50 for smaller birds - they are losing money right off the hop since it costs around $800 to vet birds for diseases and behavioural issues through her rescue and certified avian veterinarian.

"It (the money) all goes to the birds," she said.

Woods posted on social media on Sept. 24 that due to zoning she was informed that her rescue would no longer be able to operate from her home.

"Being a non profit, it's not feasible to rent a commercial space, nor do I feel that I wish the birds to be cared for in a commercial space either," she wrote.

The town's chief administrative officer, Malcolm Morris, said it was in his understanding that the town's issue with the rescue started as a result of a noise com-

plaint. However, Woods said that the noise complaint came two weeks after the initial interaction with the town regarding the harbouring of a wild bird. Woods reported that she has complied with what animal control had requested in regards to noise.

In a letter addressed to council and members of the media, Gloria Fantin, president of the Parrot Resource Centre, expressed that "something is not right" with Feathered Haven Parrot Rescue receiving notice to stop their operation from their Smiths Falls address after almost 10 years of operation in town.

"They have been in the public eye for all those years, they have always had an open door policy and never were untruthful of the rescue and its operation," she wrote. "Almost 10 years, they have brought revenue into businesses in and around Smiths Falls, many of you and your families have without doubt been in

PERRY WEAGLE FOR COUNCIL Born & Raised in Smiths Falls

I would like with your help to work with council to manage the Town more efficiently for the Tax Payers.

Smiths Falls is competing with 3 other neighbouring Towns for more Housing, Commercial and Industrial Taxes.

We have not been doing very well for years. Smiths Falls residential taxes are 29% higher than Perth, 50% higher than Carleton Place and 60% higher than Kemptville.

Perth Carleton Place Kemptville

$100,000.00 Assessment Property Taxes – Smiths Falls $1803.10 $1397.86 X 28.99% = $1803.23 $1200.12 X 50.24% = $1803.06 $1125.39 X 60.22% = $1803.09

There are many reasons for this and I would like to work with council if elected.

The town has a very strong foundation for the future Thanks to Mayor Dennis Staples and his Council for coming up with The Strategic Plan.

In just 12 years, 2002 to 2014 completed improvements between min. $120,000,000.00 and $144,000,000.00 costing the town 7.5% or 6.25% it was hard to get an exact figure. Either way this is $10,000,000.00 or $12,000,000.00 a year completed in improvements over 12 years with such a small percent of investment. IT IS NOW TIME TO DO SOMETHING FOR THE TAX PAYERS OF SMITHS FALLS.

insideottawavalley.com

What I want to work on is to pay off the debt in 5 years or less, making the Taxes and Water Bills frozen at the same rate as they are in 2018 till the debt is cleared. Once completed, adjust the Tax Rate to at least be in line with Perth, 30% less taxes. I have a formula I believe will accomplish this for Tax Payers.

Perth learned this lesson over 50 years ago having managed their town with no debt for decades.

I would like to work hard on the spending in Smiths Falls to put the Town in a better position.

attendance at the educational, outreach and fund raising events Jill and Harry Woods, Feathered Haven Parrot Rescue have been at."

Woods explained to councillors that the rescue has operated for numerous years and operates within public health regulations.

Woods said the rescue follows strict disinfection and cleaning protocol, explaining that she cleans daily with a bleach solution. Woods reported that quarantine procedures are in place.

"I went over to your home and I was very impressed with how well kept it was - I didn't expect anything less, just so you know," said Coun. John Maloney, who said he's also seen Woods and her birds at various events.

"I know how much you love the birds and how much you care about them," he said. "You're one of the most caring human beings that I've ever met."

Maloney asked how many birds she's had in her home at one time.

Currently, the town's bylaw stipulates that "no person shall keep, or do anything which may cause the kept, more than three (3) animals of any particular species nor an aggregate of four (4) animals in or about any one dwelling unit in the Town of Smiths Falls."

The bylaw provides exceptions to animals under the age of eight weeks, homing and racing pigeons, fish, rodents, or small birds kept at all times in an animal enclosure. Kennels, animal hospitals and a veterinarian's office of a pet shop are permitted to have more than the maximum allowed animals under a specific zoning bylaw.

Woods reported that the most birds she's ever had at once were 42 birds in a flight cage. Woods explained that the high number was as a result of a rescue they did in Ottawa last January where they rescued 108 birds. The birds rescued at this time were smaller than the large parrots Woods also rescues.

"We do a lot of good," said Woods. "The birds do a lot of good."

Woods said she brings the birds various events as well as to nursing homes and Alzheimer's day programs where they can get residents out of their shells.

Woods said some of the birds have the intelligence level of an eight-year-old child. Some can live between 80 and 100 years.

Woods said many are surren-

dered by their owners because they can't handle them - not realizing the specialized care and commitment they need. She said owners can get tired of caring for their birds; sometimes the birds actually outlive their owners.

"We do the best we can," she said. "What I'm asking is that you please review your bylaws."

Woods said that providing a provision in the town's bylaws for rescues would be a good step.

"We recognize the value in what you're doing," said Smiths Falls Mayor Shawn Pankow.

"You're providing a very valuable service."

Pankow asked Woods if she knew of any other rescues operating within a certain bylaw framework. Woods said she has checked but hasn't been able to find anything.

"Unfortunately, birds aren't included in a lot of municipal bylaws," she said. "We're kind of at the lead in this in the province, in the country."

Pankow said he could there would be less of a concern in rural properties than in a neighbourhood where concerns can emerge, which is what has occurred in this instance.

There are three issues at play he said: municipal zoning, noise and the number of pets.

Pankow said there is a possibility to rezone to accommodate for the rescue. However, he said the issue will need more discussion.

Kerry Costello, the town's clerk and director of corporate services, reported that the town met with Woods on Thursday, Oct. 4, where zoning was discussed.

Costello said that staff could go back and write a report with various options to go into detail about the zoning provisions that were discussed.

"There's a lot of emotion attached to this," said Coun. Jay Brennan, which is why he - like other members of council - wants to get all the information before making a decision.

"We do think of kittens and puppies and dogs and cats - we don't think about birds," said Quinn, who said she believes council can come up with a suitable solution.

There will be no bylaw enforcement of Feathered Haven Parrot Rescue until the matter has been settled by council.This issue will come before council at a future committee of the whole meeting for discussion.

IT'S DAFFODIL PLANTING TIME IN RIDEAU LAKES ONCE PLANTED, DAFFODILS MULTIPLY AND BLOOM YEAR AFTER YEAR It's daffodil planting time!

The Township of Rideau Lakes is the Daffodil Capital of Ontario.

More than 35,000 bulbs have been planted so far in the township. This is the time of

year to plant more.

From Jones Falls to Lombardy, California to Delta, Newboro to Chantry, communities and residents in Rideau Lakes plant bulbs each fall for golden spring blooms in their gardens, in public spaces and along the roadsides near fence lines.

Once planted, daffodils multiply and bloom year after year. Sunny locations are best, and the leaves need a chance to gather nourishment for the following year, so choose a spot where they can be left alone.

Purchase daffodil bulbs from local retailers or the Rideau Lakes township office.

Police say an investigation revealed that the 33-year-old male driver of Smiths Falls had a strong odour of alcohol coming from inside the vehicle. Police conducted a Alcohol Screening Device on the driver resulting in a "fail" reading.

The driver was subsequently placed under arrest for operating a motor vehicle while having more than 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood. The driver later provided suitable samples of his breath to a quali-

insideottawavalley.com

EVELYN HARFORD Column

Another municipal election is upon us. It's a time when you get to have your say about who you want to represent you on your town or township's council.

On average, municipal election voter turnout tends to be lower than the turnout for federal or provincial elections.

According to Elections Canada, 66.1 per cent of people voted in the 2015 federal election - the highest turnout since 1993. Fiftyeight per cent voted in the 2018 provincial election held earlier this year. Now compare those numbers with the average voter turnout across Ontario, reported by the Association of Municipalities Ontario, in the last municipal election held in 2014, where only 43.12 per cent of voters in Ontario showed up at the polls.

In Lanark County, Smiths Falls and Mississippi Mills had the highest voter turn out during the last municipal election both seeing 53 per cent of their electorate casting a ballot. The lowest voter turnout was observed in Beckwith, where only 23 per cent of eligible voters cast a ballot.

To me, this is backwards.

Arguably, municipal councillors and mayors have the most direct impact on you in your day-today life. If you're frustrated

about pot holes, a certain bridge not being repaired, or concerned about the cleanliness of your local park - all issues within the purview of your municipality - can be brought to your local council.

While municipal politics might light up social media after issues from meetings have been reported by various media outlets, not many people seem interested to come out and sit in the council chambers while contentious issues are being discussed.

Watching the meetings broadcast on television is also a good way to understand what's going within in your municipality's council. Being an informed voter is important.

As someone who sits at town council and committee meetings each and every week, there is nothing better than watching your elected officials debate inperson to help you understand who you've elected to represent you, and whether or not they actually speak to your values. Many people will gripe online (and in person) about what's going on in their municipality, but how many of them will actually vote? If you don't vote, you don't have a right to complain.

Many municipalities now offer the convenience of telephone and Internet voting. If you've got time to check your email or Facebook, or call up a friend, you've got time to vote.

Monday, Oct. 22, is your chance to tell your elected officials what you think.

If you haven't registered to vote, please do. You live in a democracy. This is your chance to tell your current, and prospective elected officials, what you think of them.

WHO WE ARE LETTERS & COMMENTARY READER TAKES ISSUE WITH CANDIDATE'S EXPLANATION FOR HIGH POLICING COSTS DEAR EDITOR:

I am writing in response to councillor and candidate Dawn Quinn's comments during the municipal allcandidates debate, held on Oct. 4, when asked about the high cost of our local Smiths Falls Police Service.

"I really believe there are many reasons why police costing is so high, one of the reasons and people don't like to hear this but I don't mind saying these things is because we have so much welfare within our town."

Did Quinn really just blame the town's high policing costs on the province's social assistance program and those in town that receive it?

Quinn implies that Smiths Falls has higher than usual rates of people on social assistance, perpetuating the town's already bad rap on this subject and furthering the stigma associated with asking for help. This comment also

suggests that there is nothing the municipality can do to control high policing costs as "welfare" is provincially governed. I believe the high cost of our police force is more likely due to factors like insufficient mental health resources and long waitlists for help.

Needing support does not make you a criminal.

KELLEY DENHAM SMITHS FALLS

ONTARIO NEEDS TO ACT NOW ON CLIMATE CRISIS DEAR EDITOR:

Ninety-one scientists from 40 countries recently released papers further warning about our planet's trajectory toward a climate crisis as soon as 2040. The U.N. report's conclusions are dire. These predicted planet-altering life results are only 22 years away. These are not theories that may come about in some unforeseen distant future.

Meanwhile, Premier Doug Ford argues that a price on carbon contributing pollutants is just a tax that does nothing to combat the contributions that steer

us directly toward droughts, fires, floods, crop failures and eventual starvation, and, huge numbers of climate refugees that will be the results.

It wouldn't be so potentially damaging to our future if Ford and his supporters had a workable, sensible alternative course of action before they publicly trash and dispose of any existing ideas. Responding on gut feelings or hunches with such high stakes isn't acceptable from any highranking politician.

Ford is against any seemingly sensible actions that may help to mitigate, lessen, or delay what scientific findings have concluded. In doing so, he is sabotaging Canada's commitment to the 2015 Paris Accord.

Ford's actions are proof of what occurs when one decides to forgo suppleness in one's thinking for more rigid, simpler, and less complicated thoughts that are easier to sell. As the old line goes, "you can pay me now, or, you can pay later" with heavy interest.

With the upcoming legalization of cannabis on Oct. 17, the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit's website has reliable and evidence-based health information for our communities. We have collaborated with our many partners to develop and share this information, realizing we all have a role to play in protecting the health of our youth and our families.

We recognize that some people are going to use cannabis - in a recent survey, approximately 23% of residents aged 15 and older living in Leeds Grenville and Lanark reported using cannabis in the previous 12month period.

"When making informed decisions about personal use of substances, it is important to know the facts" explains Kimberley Marshall, Registered Nurse. "Knowing the facts includes an understanding of the health risks associated with the use of cannabis and how to reduce those risks. The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health's Lower Risk Cannabis Use Guidelines, available on our website, can help inform and support decision-making with scientific information to reduce the potential harms associated with personal cannabis use or second hand exposure to cannabis smoke."

Key information for all to consider • Youth until the age of 25-30 are particularly vulnerable to cannabis related harms. Regular cannabis use affects the brain development during this period and can lead to long-term serious health effects.

• Cannabis use affects the growth and development of the fetus; the chemicals released by cannabis can cross into breastmilk. So it is better to avoid cannabis use during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

• Individuals can become addicted to cannabis; the risk is higher if the individual, or other family members, has anxiety, depression or other mental illness.

• It is not safe to drive after using cannabis - cannabis use impairs judgment and attention, slows reaction time and compromises motor skills.

For more information about cannabis and other substances, please see our website (healthunit.org/health-information/ alcohol-other-drugs/cannabis/). You can also call 1-800-660-5853 or connect with LGLHealthUnit on Facebook and Twitter.

DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com If all goes according to plan, Hugh Colton hopes that this year's Build a Mountain of Food campaign will top the 1 million pound mark for food collected over the past 11 years.

Colton, who has organized the campaign since it began in Perth in 2007, held his annual campaign kick-off at the Perth Best Western Plus hotel on Tuesday, Oct. 9.

Coming just the day after Thanksgiving, with turkey left-overs still jamming fridges everywhere, Colton joked that "it seems like I just shut this file and it's open again!"

Food bank representatives

mingled with supermarket owners, as Colton revealed that 213,732 lbs. of food were collected last year, along with 162,174.68 in cash. If those trends continue, that would be enough to put the overall total collected since 2007 over the one million lb. mark, which currently stands at 933,949 lbs. of food, and $540,201.33 in cash. (Comparatively, 3,200 lbs. of food and $1,400 in cash was collected in 2007, when the campaign just hit Perth, before expanding in later years across the county, and beyond.)

"The amount of generosity from your communities is incredible," said Colton. He called the pre-packaged bags of food people could pick up to donate to the food

bank a " great" idea, and commended supermarkets for marking sure that they are "usually well displayed."

The Build a Mountain float is usually seen out-and-about at several area county Santa Claus parades. On Thanksgiving Day, Colton was out giving the once-over to make sure that they are ready for parade days.

"We will be doing as many parades as we can, logistically," he said.

Desmond Devoy/Metroland Hugh Colton, organizer of the Build-a-Mountain of Food campaign, makes a point during the campaign kick-off at the Perth Best Western Plus hotel on Tuesday, Oct. 9.

• Smiths Falls Santa Claus Parade, Saturday, Dec. 8.

Plus, a community night is planned for Portland on Friday, Dec. 14. Colton is also awaiting more details on the arrival of the CP Holiday Train schedule, which usually hits Merrickville, Smiths Falls, and Perth.

"The majority of people have been good," said Colton, in giving

This week's featured pets Annabelle Hi, I am Annabelle. I've been sent to Perth Pet Valu to be adopted. I love it here; they have good food and cat trees and comfy cat beds. I hope you get me one when you come to adopt me.

It has been busy in the store; kittens come and kittens go, but I am still here. Please look at me, too.

I had five babies of my own, but they've found homes already. It's my turn, don't you think? See you soon. Love, Annabelle.

family had to surrender me because of serious health reasons.

That was in April. It took a long time to get over that. I missed them a lot. I've been adjusting at LAWS and enjoyed being with other cats, but whenever people came to adopt I was a little shy to meet them, so I was overlooked over and over and over again.

They've sent me to Carleton Place's Natural Pet Foods at 61 Bridge St. I hope someone sees this message and comes to meet me. I am truly a nice boy, with fantastic green eyes and a lovely, shiny, black coat. Would you please take a chance on me? I'd love to be in a true forever home again. Hugs, Ulyss.

Felix

Hi, my name is Felix, and I am a handsome orange tabby boy. I am very friendly. I am just getting over a cold, but when you read this I should be ready to come home with you.

Ralph Ralph was found outside the shelter. He was fed for a while, then he was live trapped. Initially hissing and scared, he's

now following everyone who gives him attention. He's handsome, friendly and ready for his forever home. Ralph is available in Carleton Place at Natural Pet Foods.

The Smiths Falls & District Arts & Culture Council (SFDACC) is calling for nominations for the 8th annual Joyce Brennan Award for outstanding contributions to art and culture in the Smiths Falls Area.

This award is given in honour of the late Joyce Brennan, who was a founding member of the Ri-

deau Canal Museum Board and the Heritage House Museum, a town councilor, as well as a founding member of the SFDACC board.

The award will be presented on the evening of Saturday, Nov. 3, at the Royal Canadian Legion.

In 2011, the first Joyce Brennan Award was presented posthumously to

Joyce. It was accepted by her son, town councilor, Jay Brennan, at the newly-built Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre.

Last year, 2017, the award was presented to Emily Duberville to recognize her theatrical and visual arts contributions to the town. While a talented artist in her own right she

wrote an original play, Fort Hemlock, for the Smiths Falls Community Theatre to produce during Canada's bicentennial celebrations. For years she has directed the annual Christmas Pantomime at the Station Theatre which provides many youth the opportunity to not only perform but learn about many aspects of theatre.

She has also contributed her talents in costuming, makeup, set design, set dressing. In her "day" job as an Early Childhood Educator she uses "free exploration" of multimedia allowing children to create their own personal style and as a result many of her former students have won awards for their art work in later years and attribute this, in part, to those early experiences.

THE MACLEOD FIDDLERS TO PERFORM IN LOMBARDY They're coming back to set our toes tapping!

The MacLeod Fiddlers are a Scottish youth group from the county of Glengarry, a hot bed of Celtic culture in Ontario. They've performed throughout eastern Ontario, in the U.S.A. at the Loon Mountain Highland Games, at the Scottish Festival in Dundee, N.Y. and for thirteen years in a row at the Greater Philadelphia Mid-Winter Scottish & Irish Festival. In July of 2012 they did a successful two week tour of Scotland. The group has also toured Canada's

East Coast four times, and their three CDs are in great demand.

On Sunday, Oct. 21, at 2 p.m. they will perform, for the third time, at Holy Trinity Anglican Church, 29 County Rd. 1, near Lombardy. Admission is a free-will offering, and refreshments will follow the concert.

For additional information call 613-283-0381.

PAULINA HREBACKA phrebacka@metroland.com Perhaps the most wondrous marker for the start of the holiday season and a popular Christmas tradition for many, the CP Holiday Train will make its annual stops in local communities including Merrickville, Smiths Falls, and Perth this year on Wednesday, Nov. 28.

2018 marks 20 years of the Holiday Train's visits to communities across Canada and the United States in an effort to support the local food banks.

The lit-up locomotive will start its route in Montreal on Nov. 25 with Sam Roberts Band entertaining the crowds along the way. The performers will switch-out on Nov. 27, with artists Terri Clark, Sierra Noble and Kelly Prescott taking over as the train enters Ontario.

Nov. 28's stops are scheduled as follows: Finch at 2:30 p.m., Merrickville at 4:45 p.m., Smiths Falls at 6:20 p.m., Perth at 7:40 p.m., and Hamilton at 7:45 p.m.

The route will wrap-up in Port

Coquitlam, British Columbia on Dec. 18.

"On behalf of the 13,000-strong family here at CP, it is my great pleasure to kick off the 20th tour of the CP Holiday Train," said Keith Creel, CP's president and chief executive officer. "It is a privilege for CP to be able to run a program like this and connect with so many communities across our network.

I want to personally thank each individual who has made a donation over the past 20 years - your collective efforts have made the Holiday Train a huge success for two decades."

Each event is free of charge. Instead of paying admission, attendees are encouraged to practice generosity as the holiday season approaches, opening their cupboards and wallets to address hunger needs in their communities. At every stop, the train will be collecting donations to ensure that the less fortunate are well-stocked with healthy food for the coming cold months.

needs.

John Maloney: I believe we can fund the hospital through taxes and savings without having to increase taxes. Council has put this off until the next budget discussion so we can get more information. That's when the decision will be made. I don't want to jeopardize anyone's health for the sake of a few dollars per household.

vices available - including fundraising through service clubs that could lessen the blow on residents. However, if taxpayer money does need to be used, I would like to see it as minimal as possible.

Wendy Alford: I do believe the town can support the hospital; we've done so before when we pledged $2 million in the early 2000s. I'm not in favour of a levy on tax bills, but with the economic boom we're experiencing I do believe we can afford roughly $175,000 a year to invest in the equipment that the hospital

FAMIL Y

Thirteen people are running to become councillors for the town of Smiths Falls - two others, incumbent Mayor Shawn Pankow and current Smiths Falls councillor Joe Gallipeau, are vying for a seat in the mayor's chair.

Questions submitted by members of the public were vetted and asked of candidates at the all-candidates debate hosted by the Smiths Falls & District Chamber of Commerce on Thursday, Oct. 4, at the Settlers Ridge Centre.

Question: Would you support municipal dollars being allocated help fund a projected funding shortfall at the Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital of $3.1 million each year in core capital needs, which is needed to purchase new equipment. Would you support a funding request of $41 in funding per household annually? If not, how would you propose to help fund the shortfall.

Louis Daigle: There are other avenues for the hospital to get funding aside from directly applying it to the residents. There are lots of grants and funding ser-

tal health issues. They're also aware of domestic violence issues. They know a lot of the people, where OPP would not.

There's no guarantee that OPP costs won't skyrocket in the future if the town decides to switch.

Wendy Alford: In the last 15 years, this question has come up three different times and three different councils have chosen not to proceed. The last round of discussion in 2016 was called off when the town was informed that transitioning to OPP would be in two phases - the first would be based on a defined number of contractual hours of service decided upon by the OPP; that phase would be in place for three years.

The second phase would be the transition to the OPP billing model in place at that future times. In simple terms, the town would not know the true cost of OPP policing in Smiths Falls until three years after we'd abandoned our own force.

Louis Daigle: The police do an outstanding job. They have high solved rates. However, I would like to see the police find ways to reduce costs.

John Maloney: Our police force was reduced in my term by two officers - they've come up with some great savings. I think there could be more. When you make decisions, you've got to have all the information - part of that is getting an OPP costing.

Question: Would you vow to lobby Parks Canada and the federal government to keep Victoria Park Campground in its current location, or work to find another solution?

Niki Dwyer: I think the community is going to have to decide whether or not they value it in its current location. Its value is undeniable, bringing revenue into the town, and it is a great partnership for the other tourism assets in our community. I would not like to see it moved or closed, or even threatened closure, until we find an agreeable solution with the Smiths Falls & District Chamber of Commerce. I think there are other options for locations around the town - particularly on the water where the campground could be located. But until we come to consensus, I don't think it's worth closing it.

Perry Weagle: To me the campground has been a success story for Smiths Falls. It's always busy; a lot of tourists come to the town because of it - they go uptown and visit shops and restaurants. Why would we ever want to stop having it? I would do everything in my power to keep it there.

The final say is with Parks Canada, but we should keep working on it.

Ken Manwell: I'm a great advocate of keeping the campground where it is at this point. I've seen over 10,000 people come through

Evelyn Harford/Metroland It was a full house at the all-candidates debate hosted by the Smiths Falls & District Chamber of Commerce at the Settlers Ridge Centre on Thursday, Oct. 4, 2018. that park on a yearly basis - and that's a lot of money coming into our community that we're going to give up if we do something with it.

Dawn Quinn: I do believe it should stay here. If there are problems with it, then let's look at them. There have been discussions about changes that could be made to help it be set up better and to make it more friendly and open. It does bring dollars into our town and helps promote tourism - like it was created to do.

Christopher McGuire: One thing that is important to note is the turnout. These people don't just park there for the summer and leave it. We need to look at solutions. It's really an important driver to the community.

Question: What is your opinion on Confederation Bridge?

Jay Brennan: Confederation Bridge was closed some three

years ago and in my mind it's a town asset, it's a town responsibility. It serves a very good purpose. The reason it hasn't been fixed, I'm told, is because we're trying to market the old water treatment plant. But if you build it, they will come. If you provide the infrastructure, then you're going to attract people to buy the water treatment plant. It also eases traffic congestion. To me as a councillor, it's my responsibility to fix it.

Sheldon Giff: I'm in favour of keeping the bridge vehicular and pedestrian. The reason for that is for tourists and residents, if you make a wrong turn you have to go over the bridge and then you have to detour around. It connects people to the park that live downtown and allows residents and tourists alike to visit the park arSee PROSPECTIVE, page 27

that. I do not support a levy. I believe we can contribute to our hospital within our means. It's the most important institution we have in town.

Peter McKenna: I've worked in the healthcare system for 30 years. I'm not interested applying a levy directly onto your property tax to fund the hospital. Premier Doug Ford has just struck a task force to end hallway medicine. I'd be advocating to the province to see what they could do to help the hospital.

Lorraine Allen: It makes much more sense, at a time when we're becoming more financially stable, to make it part of our budget.

It's important to have a local hospital for people to get procedures done locally.

Ken Manwell: I don't believe that we should add it to the tax bill because once it goes on, you'll never get it off - and it only goes up. We do have money available to put aside for this purpose, though I'm not sure if it would be the $175,000. I think we could do some fundraising, maybe with local service clubs, to make this happen.

Question: If elected, would you support an Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) costing?

Dawn Quinn: I have a great love for our own police force. I believe there are many reasons why the cost for policing is so high.

One of the reasons, and people don't like to hear this, is because we have so much welfare within our town and our police deal with that on a regular basis. If we have OPP, they will certainly look after us - but will we have the same quality of care? I don't think so.

However, it doesn't hurt to look at an OPP costing to see what they come up with.

Christopher McGuire: Our police do work hard to protect our community - 80 per cent of our police force budget goes towards wages. Town council doesn't have the power to cut wages without going to the province. Mental health calls were up 63 per cent between 2016 and 2017 - that's something that's taking a bit of the budget. I feel that could be better handled by having a mental health nurse on call 24-7 that can pair up with an officer that knows they're going to a mental health call.

Sheldon Giff: Mental health is an issue in Smiths Falls. I would support an OPP costing, but I am in favour of Smiths Falls police only because they are aware of a lot of the residents that have men-

ATTORNEY GENERAL ROLLS INTO TWEED ON EVE OF MARIJUANA LEGALIZATION DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@ metroland.com Ontario Attorney General Caroline Mulroney visited the Tweed plant in Smiths Falls on Friday, Oct. 12, less than a week before marijuana is legalized across the country.

The York-Simcoe Pro-

gressive Conservative MPP was last in Smiths Falls when she held a campaign rally at the Lions Club hall on the south side of town during the party's leadership campaign.

This time, she returned as a member of the new Ford government, and was given a tour of the Tweed plant by Canopy Growth Corp. CEO Bruce Linton.

She was joined for the walkabout by LanarkFrontenac-Kingston MPP Randy Hillier, Smiths Falls Mayor Shawn Pankow and Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston MP Scott Reid.

She later had a quick bite to eat at the Country Diner, before heading west for a tour of the Perth courthouse.

MOTHER'S ATTEMPT AT PRODUCING HOMEMADE SOAP SHORT-LIVED MARY COOK RECALLS HOW SALES DRIED UP AFTER JUST 1 WEEK MARY COOK Column

Scott's Hardware and bought not one, but two tins of Gillett's Lye! Well, the next Saturday, soap sales slowed down to a crawl. Every customer who had bought the week before complained about the bits and pieces of unmelted lye which left scratch marks all over the user's body.

"We'll still buy your eggs, chickens and buns, but we'll pass on the homemade soap, if you don't mind," was what we heard at every house where we had sold the soap the week before.

Well, much to our relief, Mother gave up on the homemade lye soap. The bar of Ivory came out on Saturday night, sparingly used for our tub baths, and then wrapped and put away for another week. And we were back to the big yellow bar with no name that came from Briscoe's General Store, and which sat in a saucer by the wash basin in the kitchen, used to wash up before we could put a crumb of food in our mouths. The homemade lye soap was never mentioned again.

There was no reason in the world, Mother thought, that she couldn't add a bit more cash to her egg money. Although it was all called "egg money," it could come from selling drawn chickens, butter or sticky buns, fresh vegetables when our garden was flourishing in the summer time, and of course, eggs.

But fall had settled in, and Mother was anxious to make up for the loss of vegetable sales when she went door to door every Saturday through the streets of Renfrew. And she knew just how she was going to do it too.

Aunt Bertha Thom on our next farm had showed Mother how to make homemade soap, and she could see no reason why she couldn't add these little bars to her peddling door to door. She was sure the housewives of Renfrew would be delighted. Of course, she had to perfect the soap-making first.

She was new at the job, and we five kids thought Mother needed a lot more practice before she could add homemade soap to her list.

We stayed well away from her when she was putting everything together.

We saw her use Gillett's Lye, which took our breath away if we came within five feet of it, and my sister Audrey was sure she would see smoke coming out of the tin when Mother

opened it. Water was boiled, and rendered fat got its way into the mix too.

Mother even bought a fresh lemon and added its juice as well.

As soon as we tried it with our Saturday night bath, we knew Mother had a lot to learn. For some reason, bits of the lye hadn't melted, and we kids ended up with scratches all over our bodies. We begged Mother to let us use the one and only bar of Ivory soap we had on the farm, and was supposed to be used for company. She said the next batch she would make would be vastly improved, and the bar of Ivory was wrapped up and put away, and whether we liked it or not, we had to get used to the homemade lye soap!

Mother was sure the next batch would be better.

She said she learned that the water had to be at a rolling boil when poured onto the lye, and she said two lemons were better than one.

Father was sure Mother was losing money on the whole idea. Gillett's Lye wasn't cheap, and buying fresh lemons was a sheer luxury. But Mother said she was sure selling the little bars at 15 cents apiece would more than pay for the money she spent making the soap.

Well, that first Saturday, Mother's customers seemed delighted to have a bar of freshly made soap right off the farm, and it didn't take long to empty the basket she had packed the soap in. She was so excited, she went right over to

Donald Trump has and is making his mark on the position of United States' president although I think it's fair to say most Americans and most interested people around the world believe it's a black mark.

As a career journalist my interest lies mainly in Trump's almost daily references to "fake news." I certainly believe there is such a thing. Just watch the two major U.S. television news networks. I think most of you will very quickly determine what is fake and what is real in terms of their coverage!

In Trump's case I believe "fake news" refers to anyone who writes or broadcasts anything that is contrary to his bleatings (his daily Twitter tirades for example) or those who comment on what passes for his government's policies. Yes, lots of fake news for sure!

There's little doubt that in the midst of what some are calling "the Trump era" truth is taking a severe beating. At the very least a lot of peo-

ple - and I'm not only referring to politicians - are being rather economical with the truth these days.

Fact checking has become a daily part of this unfolding drama. The number of factual "errors" Trump has made in two years number in the thousands.

Fake news indeed!

This is a very tough time to be a journalist, especially in the U.S. where Trump, his supporters and others are whipping people into a frenzy by suggesting that the media is "the real enemy of the people." Threats made against media members and organizations are increasing exponentially.

For example, a really scary threat made against the Boston Globe newspaper recently. That led to a dramatic police raid on a home in California. A man now faces multiple charges in the case.

I won't only pick on the U.S. here. Because the truth is that journalists and a free press are under attack worldwide. Sadly, the global map of countries and places where reporters are free to report the news without interference is shrinking rapidly. There isn't a week that passes without more bad news in this regard.

Fortunately, it appears North American press freedom won't be strangled as easily as it has been in so many other countries.

This issue has multiple personalities and what is happening south of the border has clearly rubbed

off on Canada.

My concern is not so much that we are being lied to in many instances but rather that we aren't receiving all of the information we should be getting. "The whole truth and nothing but the truth" in other words!

For example, there has been a lot written recently about why, in so many cases, the police in this country (and elsewhere) withhold information, delay releasing details in certain cases or don't release some things at all.

It's especially true if the incidents involve the police themselves. The tragic murders of two police officers and two civilians in a shooting in the New Brunswick capital of Fredericton is a recent case in point. Why, for example, did it take so long for police to release even the number of victims involved in that terribly sad event?

I'm only scratching the surface by referring to the Fredericton shooting case. There is so much more involved in Canada and other developed countries with respect to this situation in general.

Fake news, or no news, has become a subject of real concern!

Niki Dwyer: To me, building the bridge back up to its previous state is a nobrainer. I think if you look at that park over the last two years, it's been a complete dead space. It's such a shame, and I think the bridge had a lot to do with it. I'm disappointed to see that this current council has deferred this decision repeatedly until they know what's going on with the water treatment plant because, like Jay Brennan said, the best way to sell your piece of real estate is to have your piece of infrastructure to support it.

Without it there, that building is going to stagnate.

There's also going to be a major reconstruction downtown on Beckwith Street next year and that's going to displace traffic - it's going to need to go somewhere.

Confederation

Bridge is a natural conduit for that traffic.

Ken Manwell: I've had quite a few seniors tell me about the bridge being missing because when they are going through town they feel threatened and they like to cut across the bridge. I think that's very important. If the bridge is fixed, I'd like to see the town square down in that area instead of being up by town hall.

Lorraine Allen: I'm glad that was the decision to keep it up when it was decommissioned. What's left a bridge with great historical value - is intact. I would like to see it rebuilt.

Question: If an opportunity for increased train service was proposed, how would you respond or pledge town resources to the project?

Wendy Alford: I think we've been trying for some time to entertain and be supportive of Moose. I

think it's in our own best interest to find a way to support light rail between here and Ottawa because we have a lot of people that commute back and forth.

I'm hoping there will be less and less need for that as our workforce swells and our economy booms. I wouldn't want to talk about potential dollars being put towards a project until I see numbers.

Dawn Quinn: The other night at council, I asked council to send a letter to support Moose Consortium. We need to support them because that would give us a transit system and that would certainly help.

With growth, we're going to have a greater need for it.

Christopher McGuire: The thing the town council needs to fight for is to have a train station in town. If we build it in town, people can walk to the station [from] home; there's no congestion. There's also a real possibility that they

might want to build it on the edge of town or in Montague. If we don't build it where the station is now and work with CP to use that empty space, I think we really miss out. It creates a walkable commute into Ottawa.

Lorraine Allen: In meetings with Moose, there were talks that the stations would be self-sustaining, and the cost of the fares would be low so that people could use it. It was a very exciting proposal.

Jay Brennan: The transit proposal made by Clive Doucet, running for mayor in Ottawa, is not costed.

What is more hopefully, is Via Rail is looking at huge plans to connect us with Peterborough and Ottawa to increase frequency and open up the possibility for commuter rail. I know we have been working on that for quite some time. That's our best bet.

Niki Dwyer: Commuter rail and commuter light rail is going to be the way of the future. At this point, it's a little premature to talk about what sort of financial incentives we can bring to

the table. Our role right now is a lobbying role.

Question: Smiths Falls has a large share of Lanark County's social housing, what's your position on either increasing or decreasing the level of social housing in town?

Peter McKenna: We've moved into partnering with private landlords with shared and subsidized rent.

The public owning large public housing stock is a thing of the past.

Dennis Buckley: I've been listening intently and I'm a little concerned about not being able to find the real people to help us. By that I mean, if you had some type of wards to get people to meetings. I just think we need to engage the population of Smiths Falls in a real way.

Sheldon Giff: Social housing is an issue, but so is affordable housing. What I'm seeing downtown, in the downtown core, and with a lot of buildings is they're being bought up by outside investors and a lot of people are being displaced. These people are being forced out and they

have nowhere to go. I think we need to look at investors that are trying to bring affordable housing to Smiths Falls for all ages. Affordable housing is something we need to look at over social housing.

Wendy Alford: It's not just a social housing issue, we need affordable housing. We don't have enough supply for homeowners that would like to convert to a condo or low-income housing, or seniors who want to downsize. Those who are looking to rent are just as negatively impacted as those looking to buy homes. As a municipality, we can work with developers to ensure that what they're building meets the needs of our community.

This is not a quick fix.

Ken Manwell: We need affordable housing for seniors. We have a lot of renters in this community, we'd like to see more affordable housing.

The family of the late Doris Blackburn would like to thank everyone who supported us during this very sad time. The wonderful staff at Orchard View enveloped Mom and us with caring and compassion during her journey with Dementia. Many thanks to the staff at Barker’s Funeral Home for their guidance and assistance.

Mom’s Celebration of Life at St James Anglican Church was a heartfelt and loving tribute with the assistance of many people including The Ven. Brian Kauk, The Rev. Canon David Andrew, Choir Director Ian Guenette and the choir, and our “church family” members. The luncheon and reception afterwards was beautiful due to all the special touches from St. James “kitchen crew”. Thanks to family, friends and former teaching colleagues for attending Mom’s visitation and the many generous donations to the Alzheimers Society and UCDSB Champions for Kids Foundation. All the kind words, caring gestures and hugs have made us realize even more how lucky we were to have her and how much we will miss her.

We would like to thank our family and friends for helping us celebrate our 65th Wedding Anniversary.

Many thanks to those that helped supply a lovely lunch.

We mustn’t forget to mention the many relations that came from quite a distance to be with us on this important occasion.

Some came from Cambridge, Brampton, Ottawa, Newmarket, Guelph, Niagara Falls and Cornwall. So many of our good friends and neighbours took the time to come and wish us well. Many thanks to Father McNally for saying the Mass for our intention and presenting us with the certificate from the Pope. Also for coming out to have a visit with us and give us His Blessing. If we have missed anyone it is not intentional and once again thank you to everyone that visited us, gave cards, sent cards and gifts and phoned. Its a day we won’t forget for as long as we are here.

Coventry, England April 05, 1921-September 30, 2018 It is with profound sadness and a modicum of relief that we announce Norma’s passing at Ottawa, in the early morning hours of September 30th, 2018, finally at peace. She will be achingly missed by Jack, her devoted and loving husband of 74 years, her son Peter (Karen, grandsons Benjamin and Luke), daughter Lois (Richard and family), grandchildren Megan (Kevin, great granddaughter Abigail Zelia), Peter (great grandson Garrett) and Tyler (Sara, twin great granddaughters Elle and Parker), predeceased by daughter Linda Jeanne (October 03, 2012).

Norma set out on her amazing journey of life in Coventry, England. She joined the WAAF (Women’s Auxiliary Air Force) during WWII where she met her RCAF war hero and soon to be husband Jack. Norma, as many war brides did, came to Canada ready to continue her married life through years of military and diplomatic service with postings across the country and around the world including: Accra, Ghana, Nairobi, Kenya, New Delhi, India and France where they both proudly represented Canada. Over her many years of travel with Jack, Norma thrived as a wife, home maker and social director par excellence! Her artistic ability was and is exemplified in many projects completed over the years, represented by pastel, oil and acrylic paintings, award winning poetry, outstandingly complex knitted and crocheted sweaters and blankets, delicious soups (in which Dad would inevitably get the only bone to be found in the pot!!), decadent traditional English Christmas pudding and cakes. She left us an incredible legacy of memories of her wicked sense of humour, joy of fishing, golfing, tennis and escapades in Naples, Florida, walks along the beach in Mombasa and so much more. Norma also dedicated over 30 years of volunteering by knitting hats and booties for newborns and other duties as needed at the Naples Hospital. Our warmest thanks to the ladies and gentlemen PSWs and nurses from G2N and R2S at the Perley Rideau for their understanding, guidance and patience. Norma’s memorial will be set for a later date.

Rudy Lepage Oct. 15, 1941-Oct 15, 1998 In Loving memory, on the 20th Anniversary of our Dad’s passing.

Happy Birthday Dad xoxo He never looked for praises He was never one to boast He just went on quietly working For the ones he loved the most.

His dreams were seldom spoken His wants were very few And most of the time his worries Went unspoken too.

He was there....A firm foundation Through all our storms of life A sturdy hand to hold on to In times of stress and strife.

A true friend we could turn to When times were good or bad One of our greatest blessings Was the man we call Dad. Les, Norm, Rick, Debbie, Darlene (Joan)

DUBE, Michel (Mike) – In loving memory of a dear husband, father and papa who left us October 9th, 2015.

You’ve just walked ahead of us And we’ve got to understand.

That we must release the ones we love And let go of their hand.

Everyday you’re missed so much We wish we could see your smile.

And once more feel your touch Even if it’s for just a while.

Yes, you’ve just walked ahead of us But, Don’t worry we’ll be O’Kay Because now and then we swear We see your smile come our way.

In our hearts we know Jesus has the answer We know you believed in him so And that’s why we can give the greatest gift, the gift of letting go.

Until we meet again Always remembered, sadly missed and loved by his wife Patsy, his children and grandchildren

Love always Elaine

PICKLEBALL PLAYERS SOUGHT IN SMITHS FALLS People often equate pickleball with seniors - that is, if you're playing pickleball you're over 65. Joni Thornley doesn't disagree with that but adds some balance to the description - "it's loved by seniors, but it's played by everyone."

Smiths Falls pickleball was initially introduced to the town by Linda Pond, but now Anne Miskelly has taken over the role of growing it and enticing new and curious players to give it a try.

Miskelly describes it as "an old sport coming back into vogue." It was invented by a couple in 1965 (which gives it a half-century history). The origin of the name has two stories: 1) From the term pickle boat, which refers to the last boat to return with its catch; 2) the inventors' cocker spaniel was named Pickles. Whenever the ball came his way he

Township of Drummond/ North Elmsley

ran off with it ... making it Pickles' ball.

"It's an easy game to both learn and play," says Miskelly.

"It's not expensive - all you need is a paddle and a ball, similar to a wiffle ball, to get started. We have extra paddles for new players to try out. The court is similar to a tennis court but with a lower net, and the area of a badminton court, and you usually play in pairs. To get an idea of what a game is like, plug pickleball into YouTube."

Dave Thornley looks at it as graduating from tennis to pickleball.

"It's slower, you don't have to run as much, it's good exercise, it's easy to pick up, the ball doesn't come as hard," and finally he adds "you can play when you get old."

Miskelly says often golfers play pickleball in the winter after the first snow flies and describes tennis players as being good pickleball players, too.

So far there are 45 interested people on Miskelly's email list, including a couple of 20-year-olds and one individual who's 79. Smiths Falls Pickleball is open to anyone over 18 with an average age range between 40 and 60.

Miskelly is hoping that on Oct. 18, the first night of indoor play this fall, that others will come out to see what the game's about. Chimo Elementary School (11 Ross St.) is the new winter home of the game, which runs on Monday and Thursday evenings from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. The cost is nominal at $5. Participants should wear comfortable clothing and running shoes. After trying it out for two nights, a membership fee of $20 will be required to cover expenses.

The Town of Smiths Falls has agreed, with the resurfacing of its tennis courts (to happen early spring), pickleball lines and dimensions will be incorporated into the new look. The town has also bought new pickleball nets and

The public is invited to come out and find out more about the game. some paddles. Miskelly hopes the municipality will stay involved and help promote the game. There is even talk between some of the towns of a round-robin tournament next summer.

One of the most important aspects of the game to Joni Thornley is the camaraderie. She says there's no rush in the game.

"It's patience. We show our best qualities, no one is negative, we're out there having fun."

Dave Thornley adds to that. "There are some players who are more competitive, but they still take it easy and joke around."

They all help each other to play the sport better.

ARIES – Mar 21/Apr 20 Information that seems suspect on the surface may turn out to be much more if you’re willing to dig a little deeper, Aries. Do not discount anything right away.

LEO – Jul 23/Aug 23 Don’t let a minor setback derail all of the plans you have been working on for so long, Leo. This can be easily remedied with the right people offering their support.

SAGITTARIUS – Nov 23/Dec 21 Take a break this week and reconnect with some of the fun activities that you used to do to amuse yourself, Sagittarius. Think like a kid and go to a zoo, aquarium or park.

TAURUS – Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, if faced with a few different scenarios, do not immediately pick the path of least resistance. Sometimes the best reward is earned with some sweat equity.

LIBRA – Sept 23/Oct 23 When someone seeks your advice you are always willing to give it, Libra. Just do not freely offer unsolicited advice all the time or friends could view it as lecturing.
