Mischief results in low water supply in town last Sunday

COMMUNITY

By STACEY ROY sroy@perfprint.ca

EMC News - Smiths Falls council is urging any residents with information regarding the opening of several fire hydrants in town early Sunday morning to call police at 613-283-0357 or anonymously via Crime Stoppers: 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Ted Joynt, water/wastewater operations superintendent informed council this week that plant staff received a low water alarm at 12:45 a.m. on Sunday, May 26. This alarm tells staff that water tower levels are dangerously low. In fact, at its lowest, the water tower’s bowl had no water in it.

“Records indicate that approximate loss of water was 1.3 million liters including what was in the tower and resulting high lift pumps running to maintain pressure,” wrote Joynt in an email obtained by the Record News. He later added in council: “We had three hyalite pumps going but was still losing at the

EMC Events - President Clare Minielly and the members of the Smiths Falls Rotary Club are proud to announce the opening of their brand new facility, Rotary Collegiate Hall.

The hall, located at Collegiate Court (2 Gould Street), will celebrate its official opening on Friday, June 7 at 7 p.m.

The new facility brings exciting new opportunities and opens a new chapter in the 90-year history of the club. The permanent home will include an office space, canteen and open meeting space that will provide a revenue stream through rentals. Rental rates haven’t been

established yet, but the facility is hoping to attract renters from existing tenants and other community businesses and organizations.

“There was a lot of excitement when we announced it at our bingo” three weeks ago, said Rotarian Roger Cooke.

The new hall will include all new equipment and chairs that have come from a ballroom in Toronto.

For the last several months the club worked with Chris Saumure of Guy Saumure & Sons to develop a 3,300 sq. ft. hall.

“He has turned it into a wonderful space for us,” Cooke said.

EMC News - Smiths Falls residents spent the last week watching a part of the town’s entertainment history being torn down. The Premier Cinemas building has come down safely thanks to the work by GIM. Reports from the community say the work began last Tuesday afternoon and went into this week before the facility was leveled. Current land owners plan to expand the existing parking lot at that site.

tower.”

The plant’s output was as high as 256 liters per second during this incident and could not be increased further because the reservoir could not sustain any higher output without going dry. Staff expressed their pleasure in avoiding a boil water advisory.

Staff responded immediately to the call and shortly discovered several fire hydrants in town had been opened at the largest exit point possible. Three fire hydrants along Ferrara Drive, two on Harold Street, one at the corner of Condie and Alexandra streets, one on Pine and Riverdale, and one on Lera Street were all opened. Town staff was able to close all affected fire hydrants within close to an hour.

They toured the entire distribution system to verify that no other hydrants were opened.

It took until 4 a.m. Sunday before the town’s water tower was back to normal water levels.

Health unit focuses on prevention in 2013-2018 strategic plan objectives include healthy eating, maintaining good oral health and managing stress and positive mental health. “That’s what allows us to get through life,� Dr. Stewart said of the last point.

Smiths Falls Coun. Lorraine Allen thanked the doctor for her leadership in moving this region towards a healthier future and congratulated her and the health unit on a strong strategic plan. “It looks great,� she said.

Achieving these benchmarks will mean overcoming long established challenges such as restrained funding and a large geographic area where 60 per cent of the 165, 000 people served live in rural settings.

Implementation of the plan and assessment of how successful the plan has been will be done through a new service

model put into place last July. Part of local needs and faces. this model includes splitting health unit To view the strategic plan, please go staff into local health teams who service online to www.healthunit.org and click a specific area and become familiar with on the link.

Hillier releases plan to put constituents first EMC News – Randy Hillier, MPP for Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox and Addington, has released a plan to reform the rules of Ontario’s Legislature to better allow MPPs to represent their constituents.

Hillier’s plan, entitled ‘Constituents First: Empowering Local Legislators’, proposes a number of ideas to strengthen the power of legislators to better legislate and fight for their constituents in Ontario’s parliament.

Hillier’s ideas include allowing legislators to legislate by getting rid of the government’s monopoly on calling bills for third reading, restoring motions to relevance in the House and modernizing the Legislature by allowing e-petitions and the streaming of Committees of the House. The package includes the rationale for these ideas and the wording of the actual motions Hillier has tabled to do it.

EMC News – Local involvement in keeping residents healthy is at the heart of the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit’s approved 2013-2018 strategic plan.

Dr. Paula Stewart, medical officer of health, encouraged all communities within the tri-county area to join the health unit through local initiatives and projects to keep area residents active and healthy longer. “Public health, fundamentally, is about the community,� Dr. Stewart added during a May 21 presentation to Smiths Falls council. “It’s all of us working together.�

Municipalities can do this through changes to policy documents to encourage green space and facilities that encourage its residents to get out and be active. The doctor applauded Smiths Falls for its foresight in creating a walking track around the arena and completing a plan to link the trails throughout town. “All that good stuff is critical and it’s something only you can do,� Dr. Stewart said.

The health unit board approved the strategic plan in February at which time presentations to individual municipalities began. Municipalities do provide 25 per cent of the health unit’s overall funding and figure largely in the plan’s efforts to reach out to community partners in the coming years. “What we’re all hoping for is to have healthy people in healthy communities,�

Dr. Stewart said.

To achieve this, the plan sets out four health goals the health unit is hoping to tackle in the next few years with a focus on tackling preventative elements before addressing the traditional public health focuses of substance abuse, tobacco use and sexual health. “We want to move the whole population to healthy behaviours,� the doctor said.

This can be challenging for those outside of the high education levels who

may be struggling financially.

To address this the health unit wants to first focus on infant, child and youth growth and development so that a strong foundation is established. Dr. Stewart said this can include supporting effective parenting; encouraging discreet breastfeeding in restaurants and installing change tables for parental access; and encouraging the establishment of self-esteem and other developmental assets as a way to reduce risky behaviour in the future.

Once the cornerstones to health have been set the health unit hopes to build on it by promoting a healthy lifestyle that is part of resident’s every day. This is where municipalities can really help by providing regular outdoor opportunities for physical activity and play. Other

EMC News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Lanark County Support Services, like many of us this summer, will soon be decamping to the countryside.

But unlike the rest of us, the agency will not be returning to Perth proper. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There certainly is a need for expansion in the Perth area, we have grown out of our current facility,â&#x20AC;? said Debi McEwen, director of the agency, in regards to their 62 Harvey St. location, at the groundbreaking in a field along Rideau Ferry Road on May 14. The location is nearly on the Perth-Drummond/North Elmsley Township border. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the accessibility part of it,â&#x20AC;? explained McEwen as another important reason for the move. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have 10 people that require accessibility.â&#x20AC;?

These adults with developmental disabilities require, among other things, four accessible washrooms, something that the old location simply cannot provide.

But it all comes at a cost, and the agency was finding itself with a construction shortfall of about $100,000 on this, their ninth building project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is the fist time we have gone to the community,â&#x20AC;? said McEwen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not like we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the money. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just that it will tie up our money for 20 months if we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t (go to the community).â&#x20AC;?

While they will miss their old location, which has been home for 32 years, the old site is now up for

services to our Perth residents,â&#x20AC;? said Bisonette. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a boon for the space, it is a good location close to town with room to grow,â&#x20AC;? agreed hospital board chair Lynda Hendriks.

It is hoped that the back area of the property can be used for a community garden and within the building there will be an after-school program, a life skills program, and an activity centre for older adults. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We used the experience from the old place to build this place,â&#x20AC;? said McEwen.

Overall, there is about 6,240 square feet of property, which, when the building is completed, will be designed to support about 25 people. â&#x20AC;&#x153;(But) we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stay here all day,â&#x20AC;? said McEwen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are out in the community. This is a base.â&#x20AC;?

Another reason for the move was to ease the burden not only on the agency, but on families as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some people are being served in Smiths Falls because we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have room in Perth,â&#x20AC;? explained Leslie Walker, a supervisor at the Perth branch. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are having to drive their children to Smiths Falls. That is a burden. There is a waiting list for people looking to access services.â&#x20AC;?

For Walker, even seeing the shovel in the ground, and construction equipment at the ready, the full feeling has still not yet sunk in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It still seems a little surreal,â&#x20AC;? said Walker. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve looked forward to it for so long. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll change a lot of peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives, which is great.â&#x20AC;?

Disco saved my life: How Bee Gees rhythms can keep you â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Stayinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Aliveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

By DESMOND DEVOY desmond.devoy@metroland.com

EMC News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Who knew that the Bee Gees could save your life?

Love or hate their music, paramedics couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be happier for the disco kingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s infectiously catchy 1978 hit â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Stayinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Alive,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; since the rhythm of the aptly-named song could, literally, help keep you alive.

In the Lanark County council chambers last week, politicians from across the county gathered to get a demonstration on the revised CPR methods, and to practice the new, simpler techniques themselves.

(Now, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s get the obvious joke out of the way â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with so many training dummies around, the council chambers saw more dummies than normal sitting around the table.)

Paramedic Ed McPherson, who, in another life, is

also a Perth town councillor, couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t resist cracking a joke of his own as he beheld his demo dummy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a Maple Leafs fan,â&#x20AC;? he joked, before the more serious discussion and demonstration, part of Paramedic Week in Ontario, on Wednesday, May 23.

In 2010, CPR training would instruct people to go down a long checklist, which, done properly, could take up to a minute. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once your heart stops, you have four minutes,â&#x20AC;? said McPherson. So, literally, every second counts.

So, it was decided by the powers that be that the way CPR was taught be changed to, literally, get to the heart of the matter as quickly as possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to put CPR to music,â&#x20AC;? said McPherson.

Briefly, once the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head has been elevated slight-

ly, and someone else has called 911, interlock your fingers, press down on the centre of the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chest with your palm 30 times, in time with the Bee Gees hit â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stayinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Alive/ Stayinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Alive/Unh-unh-unhunh/Stayinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Alive,â&#x20AC;? pushing hard and fast the whole time.

Once you have done your 30 compressions, then do two breaths into the patient, though McPherson admitted that â&#x20AC;&#x153;nobody wants to do mouth-to-mouth with someone they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know.â&#x20AC;?

Then, repeat as necessary, until the ambulance or fire crew arrives, or someone arrives with a nearby defibrillator. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all there is to CPR today,â&#x20AC;? said McPherson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all you have to do,â&#x20AC;? until help arrives. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unless they open their eyes and look like they are alive, you keep pushing,â&#x20AC;? added McPherson.

SAFETY TIPS Heating and Cooking: Never use propane or charcoal barbecues indoors.

They are designed for outdoor use only and can quickly cause a build-up of carbon monoxide.

Common-law couples â&#x20AC;&#x201C;some important ďŹ nancial planning advice Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening more and more, these days: Couples choosing to live together before, or instead of, getting married. But living commonlaw has its own unique set of financial consequences that need to be carefully considered. Here are a few tips for making the relationship work, financially. â&#x20AC;˘ Goal-set from the getgo You and your partner each have personal financial objectives, resources and obligations â&#x20AC;&#x201C; get them on the table in a frank discussion about how you are going to achieve those goals as a couple. That way, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll limit or prevent potentially painful financial consequences should your relationship one day end. â&#x20AC;˘ Live together, talk together Be clear about how much you expect to spend, save and invest. Discuss the management of your personal finances and determine who will pay which bills and how youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll share household expenditures. â&#x20AC;˘ Write it down Early on, see your lawyer and sign an agreement, commonly known as a cohabitation or common-law contract that sets out the terms of your financial relationship.

Manage Your Money â&#x20AC;˘ Will it to happen In some jurisdictions, upon your death, your common-law partner may have statutory rights to a division of â&#x20AC;&#x153;family propertyâ&#x20AC;? or to â&#x20AC;&#x153;dependantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reliefâ&#x20AC;?, and may also have rights under intestate succession rules if you die without a will. In those cases, you may want to include in your will provisions for children of a previous marriage/relationship.

In other provinces, including QuĂŠbec, a common-law partner is not recognized as a legal heir â&#x20AC;&#x201C; so you may want to provide for your partner by signing a valid will. Given the continual changes in the law in this area, you need to speak with your legal and financial advisors regularly and keep your estate plan up to date. â&#x20AC;˘ Know the law Certain laws recognize common-law spouses. Seek information from your legal advisor on the impact these laws might have on your personal situation in your jurisdiction.

Know too, that tax laws apply to common-law partners so be aware of the effect of

your relationship from a tax perspective. â&#x20AC;˘ RRSP it You and your partner can take advantage of income-splitting opportunities by contributing to your partnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spousal RRSP â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but be aware that the contributor may not be able to get these funds back should you separate (depending on your province or territory of residence). â&#x20AC;˘ Plan for it Get your relationship on solid financial ground that fits with your life plans by meeting with your professional legal and financial advisors as soon as possible.

SAFETY TIPS

EMC News – It’s anchors away for the Buck Lake Community to commence its ninth annual fundraiser to send children with physical disabilities to Easter Seals Camp Merrywood on Big Rideau Lake.

This year’s event will take place on Saturday, June 29 on scenic Buck Lake and as in previous years, will consist of a Boatilla tour of the Lake followed by a community barbecue and cheque presentation to Easter Seals representatives at Hidden Valley Camp Grounds.

This community event began nine years ago when a small group of Buck Lakers got together with the dream of providing children with physical disabilities the opportunity to partake in outdoor activities on Buck Lake.

Together, they decided to hold a community fundraising boatilla and barbecue to help raise funds for Easter Seals to help send children with physical disabilities to Camp Merrywood.

That first year in 2003, the Buck Lake community raised over $3,000 and sent one child to camp. Each year, the event became better known and more

members of the community have become involved. To date, after eight years, the Buck Lakers have raised over $86,000 and sent 43 children to Camp Merrywood.

A founding principle of the Buck Lake community was that all monies raised by the Boatilla would be dedicated to sending children to Camp Merrywood.

Due to their specialized care, it costs $2,000 for a child to attend the 10-day overnight Camp Merrywood program. One-hundred per cent of all funds generated have been donated to Easter Seals Ontario. Not one cent of funds raised over the years has been diverted to compensate for expenses associated with the Boatilla and barbecue. These expenses have been met by the kind contribution of goods and services from individuals, groups and community businesses which believe in this cause.

For its small size, the Buck Lake Community has achieved impressive results both in terms of the number of children it has sponsored for Camp Merrywood and in building a sense of community awareness for a

great cause. The mission to send children to camp has grown to a passion for those involved and has resulted in ownership of the Boatilla by the Buck Lake community.

For its dedication and generosity, the Buck Lake community received the 2011 Easter Seals Spirit of Giving Award, an award which recognizes associations who have unselfishly promoted the mission of Easter Seals by generating significant revenue and increasing awareness of the organization in the community.

Over the years, the annual Boatilla has achieved positive results in building community relations within the environs of Buck Lake and this has been a significant benefit alongside meeting the needs of children with physical disabilities.

The annual Buck Lake Boatilla has been built on a legacy of dedicated and successful community involvement to help send children to Camp Merrywood.

The focus of the community and its supporting activities remains unchanged since its inception which is, “all about the kids!”

LE T TER TO THE EDITOR

Column shows ‘narrow-minded’ view to environment DEAR EDITOR: Jeff Maguire’s column (May 23) on dandelions and the cosmetic pesticide ban points out how narrow-minded, short-sighted, and selfish people can be when considering the environment and human health. If he would look up from his lawn he might see that the numbers of birds are increasing also, because fewer are being killed by the effects of pesticides.

Yes, I have no scientific evidence of that, just anecdotal observations, but Jeff’s entire column is based on anecdotal evidence also.

My wife is a community nurse and she knows that cancer is rampant in our region. Again, no scientific evidence of what is causing it, but toxic chemicals are a leading candidate. We should

try to eliminate as many as possible whenever feasible.

Jeff points out that the applicators of pesticides were wearing regular clothes. That’s the best evidence yet that the chemicals were not being applied properly or safely. If the professionals wouldn’t even follow directions, how could we expect ordinary citizens to take safety precautions?

Along with seatbelt, smoking, and helmet legislation, the pesticide ban shows that sometimes issues are too close to people’s personal selfish concerns to be left to their own decisions.

COMMENTARY Stretch your paws for LAWS

EMC Editorial – For more than 35 years, the Lanark Animal Welfare Society (LAWS) has been caring for abused and abandoned animals. As their operations costs rise, they rely on donations from the community to keep their doors open as one of two no kill shelters in Ontario.

A lot of those donations come in the form of various fundraising events throughout the Lanark County area, whether it’s pet photos with Santa, the organization’s annual yard sale or the upcoming Walk Your Paws for LAWs event Sunday, June 9 in Carleton Place.

This is the second year for the fundraiser, which takes place at the Carleton Place arena from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., rain or shine. Participants are invited to bring their four-legged friends and enjoy a two or five-kilometre walk throughout town. Last year’s Walk Your Paws for LAWS raised $13,000 for the registered charity. Those funds, along with an influx of other monetary donations and materials, helped save the shelter from shutting its doors last year. With a small paid staff and board of directors, LAWS heavily relies on donations as funds to keep the shelter going come from adoption fees as well as fundraising activities. They receive very little government funding.

While the generous outpouring of community support has kept LAWS on their feet through a trying winter, spring is here and the shelter will be dealing with more and more animals. As pet owners let their dogs and cats out to frolic in the warmer weather, they often forget about the importance of keeping their pets leashed as well as spayed and neutered.

This summer, think twice about allowing your pet to venture outdoors if proper precautions haven’t been taken watch for LAWS fundraisers in your community.

Uncle Lou’s visits to the farm were much like Christmas EMC Lifestyle – Very important, was my Uncle Lou. Didn’t he just get an award for working on the marble in the Waldorf Astoria in the big city of New York? We even had a chip to prove it.

Uncle Lou it was, who at least once a year descended on our farm out in Northcote to bring us unspeakable joy.

My mother’s brother, one of the four who made up her family, had no children of his own when we were youngsters, and when he came it was like Christmas all over again. Although our Christmases back then were nothing to write home about!

Uncle Lou often came without telling Mother in advance. She would much prefer if he would at least send us a letter that he was on his way. Then the house could be torn apart from top to bottom, so that everything shone like glass... our feather mattress taken off the bed upstairs, the felt one from Mother and Father’s bed hauled up to replace it, braided rugs beaten with the broom on the clothes line, and the red and white checked oilcloth on the table in the kitchen replaced with a white linen one Mother had brought to the farm.

But when he came unannounced, al-

ways on a Saturday, we knew he was on his way before he hit the yard. He would start blowing the horn of his big black Buick when he turned into our long lane, and never let up until he came to a screeching halt at the back door.

Mother had time only to change her apron, and smooth back her hair, and then she would cry. I could never understand if she was so happy why she would cry. My sister Audrey said it was from sheer joy!

I thought he looked like he should be a member of parliament. He always wore grey flannel trousers, pressed knife-sharp, and flannel shirts open at the neck. Uncle Lou was tall, and as my sister Audrey once said, he even looks important!

We five children never took our eyes off the back seat of the big Buick. We knew for a fact, that inside his big brown cowhide suitcases would be presents beyond belief. Always, there were yards of silk for Mother. And a new purse. Big. With gold clasps, and long handles. And we had no idea how he knew our sizes, but each of us would get a new piece of clothing, and everything always fit like it had been made for us!

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

Uncle Lou would first stop at a grocery store in Renfrew, and there would be grapes and bananas, and real ham, not like we had in the smoke house, but big slices...thick...just right for sandwiches.

It would take ages to unpack the Buick. When it had been emptied, the brothers would carry the cowhide suitcases up to the room my sister Audrey and I shared. Uncle Lou would take over the bed, and we would move down to the creton couch in the kitchen.

Mother’s cheeks would be red as tomatoes, and Father, who could never understand what all the fuss was about, would treat Uncle Lou like any other visitor who came out to the farm in Northcote. That meant he would still slurp his tea out of his saucer, and sit with his feet on the oven door at night reading the OtNews Editors: Laurie Weir, Joe Morin, Ashley Kulp REPORTERS: Stacey Roy, Tara Gesner, Desmond Devoy, Tiffany Lepack, Sabine Gibbins DISTRIBUTION: Lori Sommerdyk, 613-284-0124 ,ext. 27 CLASSIFIEDS/REGIONAL ROUNDUP: Fax: 613-283-5909 Judy Michaelis Email: jmichaelis@perfprint.ca Lee Ann Gilligan Email: lgilligan@perfprint.ca Jennifer Coughlin Email: jcoughlin@perfprint.ca

tawa Farm Journal or the Family Herald and Weekly Star.

As the evenings wore on, Mother and Uncle Lou would talk about New York and the many years Mother lived there.

He would tell her about the changes... how the elevated trains went for miles and miles now, and how a place called the Bronx was the place to live. Mother would listen wide-eyed and ask questions, and the talk would go on and on.

Uncle Lou had a wonderful singing voice. Without fail, every night Mother would get out her harmonica and he would sing as she played. Then she would set the mouth organ aside and they would sing in harmony...songs they both knew. My very favourite was one called, “I had a dream dear”...I thought it was very sad, but beautiful. Sometimes I would see a tear roll down Mother’s cheek when the song was over and I knew she would be remembering those happy years when she lived in the city she loved before she left for the backwoods of Renfrew County.

Even though Uncle Lou helped Father around the farm, he never seemed to get a mark on those grey flannel pants and shirt.

off his shiny shoes, he buffed them with a cloth made especially for that purpose.

He had wood forms he inserted into his shoes when he wasn’t wearing them.

My sister Audrey said she was quite sure all-important men did the same thing with their shoes when they took them off at night. I couldn’t, for the life of me, ever see my father going to that trouble with the black-laced boots he wore to church on Sunday!

Too soon it would be time for Uncle Lou to pack up and head back to New York City. Everett would swing wide the gate going out to the lane, and with the horn going full blast, Uncle Lou would spin the tires on the Buick and he was gone.

There would be such a silence in the old log house, and I would wonder if it would ever be the same again. When it came time for our silent prayers each of us were expected to say before we left Mother’s knee, I would pray that Uncle Lou would return soon. It wasn’t only for the candy, picture shows and the rides in the big black Buick, it was because his visit would bring Mother unspeakable joy and release her from the bonds that held her prisoner on that farm • Advertising rates and terms and conditions are according to the rate card in effect at time advertising published.

good forest management examples for private landowners.”

“Some of the properties have been designated as being primarily for recreational use, especially because poor soil and abundant rock hinder uses such as timber harvesting,” says Jeff Ward, partnership specialist with the provincial Ministry of Natural Resources.

“This wide range of habitat and landscapes makes the properties exceptional for recreational uses such as hiking, fishing and wildlife observation.

There are three main management principles related to the county’s community forests: social, environmental and economic. The county strives to balance all three in order to manage the forests in a sustainable way.

“Because social is one of the three main principles, we are developing opportunities for public use of the forests where appropriate,” Ward adds. “Trails are a good example of this. There are several trails on community forest properties where activities are encouraged.”

The Baird Trail in Lanark Highlands offers three distinct loops that provide insight into the natural and cultural features of the property. It has boardwalks and interpretive signage is being installed in May as a way to enhance the experience. Plans are also underway to develop the Big Ben Equestrian Trail, which will provide a new recreational experience for the area.

“Keeping the ‘community’ in the forests is important,” says Jonathan Allen, the county’s operations manager. “Our vision statement and guiding principles direct us to ensure the forests are man-

38

aged to accommodate a wide variety of values and uses, and recreation is an important part of this. Forest managers are working in conjunction with the Lanark County Municipal Trails Corporation and other groups to make sure natural values are protected while enhancing the social values.”

“There are many recreational opportunities in the community forests that are aligned with the three main principles,” Anderson adds. “There are tourism opportunities, new trails and interpretive signage being put in place. We invite everyone to come out and explore what they have to offer.”

Lanark County Tourism manager Marie White agrees there are many ways to experience all the community forests. “The opportunity to spend time in the outdoors is one of the many reasons people choose to visit Lanark County, and the community forests are a showcase for this. In addition to trails, some of which are multi-use, some of the properties have lakes within their boundaries, such as Dixon, Bottle and Caldwell lakes in the Lavant Block, which gives anglers an opportunity to try their luck or paddlers a chance to explore a waterway.”

Baird Trail, she adds, is a showcase for community forests. “This 36-hectare property was sold to the county in 1963 so that it could be sustainably managed into the future. Now there are three loops through the gorgeous property that demonstrate the evolution of the land, including its farming heritage and its ecological values – the forests and wetlands and geological features.”

White encourages visitors to explore community forests as part of a trip to Lanark County. “If you’re coming to take advantage of a festival or a shopping getaway, take the time to get back to nature while you’re here,” she says.

“There are some organized activities, too, with various nature and recreation groups conducting periodic forest walks, for example.”

She notes healthy, active living and educational opportunities are an important part of life in Lanark County. “Our community forests are one of the ways we can encourage this. ‘Nature deficit’ in children and adults today is gaining a lot of attention, and here we have playgrounds right in our backyards that allow us to reconnect with nature. More and more school groups are taking ad-

vantage of the community forests as living outdoor classrooms,” she says.

Take a walk, go birdwatching or fishing, observe wildlife, go for a picnic, take a self-guided tour or check Lanark County Tourism’s calendar of events for opportunities to go to a forest with a specific group. There are many opportunities to use these local treasures.

Andrew Campbell, a Middlesex dairy farmer and social media advocate, created Dinner Starts Here. He

hopes the project will show the public the excitement young farmers have for their future and agriculture.

There are 10 farmers participating in Dinner Starts Here. They were recruited based on their location, commodities and current use of social media tools.

EMC News – As Lanark County’s Community Forests celebrate their 75th birthday in 2013, now is a great time to get out and explore what they have to offer.

This year marks the 75th anniversary of the purchase of what is known as the Lavant Block in Lanark Highlands, which was the start of the county forest program. At first the forests were managed by the provincial Department of Lands and Forests, which eventually became the Ministry of Natural Resources. In 2001, MNR turned management responsibility over to the county.

Today, Lanark County owns more than 4,600 hectares in 38 properties scattered throughout the county, mostly in Lanark Highlands. The woodlands, wetlands, streams, lakes, plants, animals, geology and heritage features are managed in a sustainable way to provide social, recreational, economic, scientific, cultural and spiritual benefits to everyone into the future.

“The program was initiated as a way to rehabilitate agricultural properties that were being abandoned due to the difficulty of farming in such rocky, rugged conditions,” explains Brian Anderson, advisory services coordinator with Mississippi Valley Conservation, which provides professional forest-management services to the county.

The county planted trees on the properties and managed the better natural forests that still existed on some of the lands. This rehabilitated the properties and provided plantation management as old fields were converted into forests for product and habitat, all while serving as

Council calls for better cell phone coverage in Lanark County

Seeking good citizenship nominations Council learned the provincial Ministry of Citizenship and Immigration is seeking nominations for its Ontario Medal for Good Citizenship.

The medal was established in 1973 and honours Ontarians who have made outstanding contributions to community life through exceptional, long-term efforts.

It is presented by the Lieutenant Governor at a special ceremony at Queen’s Park in the fall.

Nominations should be submitted

by July 17 at www.ontario.ca/honoursandawards or contact the secretariat at

1-877-832-8622.

Committee evaluates economic development Council has accepted several recommendations from its economic development steering committee regarding service delivery in the county. A revised service delivery agreement with Valley Heartland Community Futures Development Corporation has been approved, with the steering committee indicating the county is getting great value for its tax dollars through this organization and the Small Business Advisory Centre, and that their services benefit all local municipalities in the county.

The committee recommended the county consider joining various Ontario East Economic Development target sectors as a trial, including business immigration, food processing, investment tourism and logistics and warehousing.

It also recommended the community development committee be renamed the economic development committee to more accurately reflect its areas of service delivery, including planning, tourism, trails, agriculture and forestry, which are all economic drivers in the county.

Harvest festival planned The county is supporting and applying for funding for the Lanark County Harvest Festival, an outdoor celebration of local producers and their harvest. Planned for Sunday, Sept. 8, the event will feature food tasting, free samples, a meet-the-chef program,

children’s activities, local musicians, a food auction and crafts. The annual event will rotate around the county, and will be held at the Beckwith Recreation Complex this year.

The festival is community-based and aims to support more than 55 local businesses and six farmers’ markets while promoting the development of sustainable, self-reliant communities in the county through small, sustainable food-based operations. It is also developing a new economic development network for the county through partnership with the Ontario Tourism Culinary Alliance. The festival is expected to create employment, build a customer base, encourage visitation, enhance the county’s profile as food destination and improve competitiveness for food producers through awareness.

Mayor’s Slow Bike Race and golf tournament promoted Eight local council representatives congregated at the county administration building prior to the regular council meeting to compete in the third annual Lanark County Mayor’s Slow Bicycle Race as part of Mississippi Mills Bicycle Month.

The idea is to hop on a bike and “race” to be the slowest mayor – something that requires great balance! Mississippi Mills Bicycle Month is a month-long celebration of bicycle-related activities to promote cycling for healthy, family fun. Warden Bill Dobson (Montague reeve) congratulated Lanark Highlands deputy mayor Brian Stewart for win-

ning the race and thanked everyone for their participation.

He also promoted the annual Warden’s Golf Tournament, to be held on Aug. 16 at the Perth Golf Course. Proceeds will go to the United Way of Lanark County. “I hope everyone can step up and raise even more money than last year,” Dobson said, adding sponsorship opportunities are still available.

Upcoming meetings

County council takes place Wednesday, June 26 at 7 p.m.; community development is June 5 at 5 p.m.; and public works is June 5 (following community development). The meeting of the community services committee is June 19 at 5 p.m. and corporate services is June 19 (following community services).

Rideau Lakes Horticultural Society to tour Kiwi Gardens June 5 EMC News – You’ve got your garden in and you’re just settling in to fine-tune one or more of your flower beds or your patio garden. What better way to get your motor running than a tour of Kiwi Gardens, just outside Perth.

The Rideau Lakes Horticultural Society (RLHS) has organized a tour of the gardens with owner Paul Loiselle on Wednesday, June 5 at 2 p.m. The hour-long tour will take you through the extensive grounds featuring hundreds of plants – everything from Acanthus to Zauschneria (aka Orange Carpet).

Kiwi Gardens features ferns, grasses, vines and woody plants, hostas, daylilies, and a wide assortment of perennials, as well as some tender bulbs. In addition, you’ll be able to get a sneak peak at Kiwi’s Art in the Garden exhibition. This annual event,

which opens officially on Father’s Day, showcases artists from across Ontario whose works blend harmoniously with the trees and plants – indeed, so comfortably that they often seem to have sprouted from the ground.

Visitors and guests to the Society are welcome. Just come to Kiwi Gardens at 687 Harper Road, west of Perth on Highway 7. Non-member admission to this tour is $5, but you may want to take advantage of this occasion to join up, since annual membership is only $15. Regular meetings are held Wednesdays at 7:15 p.m. at the Portland Community Hall, 24 Water Street. You can also check out other upcoming Society events and speakers on our website: www.gardenontario. org/site.php/rideaulakes, or call 613272-2877.

EMC News – The following are the highlights from the regular Lanark County council meeting held Wednesday, May 22 at the county building in Perth.

Council passed a motion asking Bell Canada to make improvements to cell phone coverage in order to help the county meet the needs of current and future citizens and businesses.

The motion notes the county is often identified as one of the best places to live for people seeking the conveniences of urban living and the quality of life found in rural settings.

Although there have been improvements over the past few years, cell phone coverage remains an issue and a priority for the county.

The county will be identifying gaps and recommend locations for tower sites. The resolution was circulated to local municipalities, MPs and MPPs.

Fourth annual Perth Kilt Run set for June 22 EMC News – The fourth annual Lanark Mutual Insurance Perth Kilt Run is set for June 22 at 6 p.m. and promises to be another fantastic event with over 2,000 runners registered for this world record setting experience.

With pipers in hand, Walker’s shortbread bakers testing their recipes, Doornekamp Wee Lads and Lassies race, a Perth, Australia challenge in the making and non-profits gearing up to shout and bang along the route, there will be lots to see and do for the entire family.

Would you like to be up-close to these wannabe Scottish folks by helping distribute water and cheer at the same time? An important element of the Perth Running Goats Club is its commitment to the community.

This is demonstrated through its annual Cheering Station Awards, a $2,400 fund used to honour the community for their support of the biggest kilt run in the world, the Perth Kilt Run, A Lanark Mutual 5 Miler.

Non-profit groups are encouraged to form a team of at least 15 people, don their kilts, bring out the

noise makers, do a little Highland step, hand out water and cheer those lads, lassies and warriors on!

Every entry automatically receives $100, while the first place choice for most Scottish, the most enthusiastic and the best water distributer will receive $1,100. Second place receives $600 and third place receives $300.

“We have a panel of judges that run by each cheering station and rate each station; 2012 saw Drummond Central School take top dollar,” said Mary Stewart of the Running Goat.

“Over the years we have had the Perth Curling Club, Perth Civitan, Montessori School, Harvey St. Gang, Northgate Christian Youth Group, Running Goat Ladies for Crohns Disease.”

A lot of people don’t realize the positive impact on runners as they see the enthusiasm and excitement of the spectators. Perth has been truly exceptional in this regard, with six cheering stations located one kilometer apart. It makes a great impression on all the runners and over and over again we hear from seasoned runner hear how this is “the best race they

have ever run in.”

To register your community group please contact Kim Spence at 613264-2946 or drop into The

Running Goat on Foster Street in Perth and pick up a form.

REGIONAL NEWS

Connected to your community

Are you gearing up for Bike to Work Week June 2 to 8?

EMC News – The Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit is working with the Brockville Cycling Advisory Committee to promote cycling and physical activity. June 2 to June 9 has been designated as the Bike to Work Week for Leeds, Grenville and Lanark this year.

During this week, several workplaces and individuals are participating by cycling to work and blogging about their experiences. A Facebook page has been launched for people (called ‘Bike 2 Work Week June 2-8, 2013’) to post photos of themselves “gearing up” or riding to work, to get tips and ideas about biking to work, to blog about their experiences or to challenge other colleagues.

A Bike Health Check will be held on Saturday, May 25 at the health unit (458 Laurier Blvd,

Brockville) from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Bike mechanics will be available to check bikes, along with a bike helmet check station and a fun bike rodeo for the children.

We are well aware of the benefits of physical activity for our mental and emotional health.

Being outside in nature has also been found to help to reduce stress, anxiety and depression, and to increase concentration and problem solving. Having staff ride their bikes to and from work can help them be more productive, healthy and happy. A good way to have more people biking to work would be to “try it out”. Bike to Work Week is the perfect opportunity to test drive this idea.

• Keep your bicycle wellmaintained. Be prepared for repairs.

• Don’t over dress. Dress in layers using moisture wicking clothing.

• If your workplace does not have a shower, ride at a casual pace to arrive at work glowing and set a more challenging pace on the ride home.

Be safe • Be seen – have lights and reflectors.

• Know a safe route that matches your skill and experience.

• Know and follow the rules of the road.

• Do not use head phones.

• Drop off clothing you will • Remember that when you’re

behind the wheel rather than the handlebars, bicycles are legitimate vehicles on the road.

• Watch before opening your door when parking your car.

• Leave lots of room when passing a cyclist, and only pass when the oncoming

traffic permits.

• Cyclists may take the entire lane when it’s not safe to try to drive side by side with cars • “Share the Road” – it’s the law.

It was golf, golf and more golf at Mapleview Golf Course on Saturday, May 25, during Big Brothers Big Sisters Lanark Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (BBBS) annual fundraising golf tournament. One-hundred and forty-four golfers took to the greens to raise more than $13,000 for BBBS, all with the chance to win $10,000 in cash from Crain & Schooley Insurance and other assorted prizes. Above right, these four gents braved cooler temperatures and a brisk wind for the tournament. From left to right: Mac Waddell, Geoffrey Conley, Bob Klatt, and Armand Thompson. Above, Tay Valley Township reeve, Keith Kerr, was more than willing to help raise funds for a good cause. Kerr is a regular participant in the BBBS fundraising tournament.

Algonquins of Ontario host forum in Perth on preliminary draft agreement-in-principle June 3 EMC News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Algonquins of Ontario (AOO) are inviting Members of Parliament, Members of Provincial Parliament and municipal representatives whose jurisdictions or ridings fall within the settlement area to three forums on the Preliminary Draft Agreementin-Principle (AIP), being held from

May 22 to June 3.

The preliminary draft AIP, released on Dec. 13, is the result of many years of negotiations between the AOO, Canada and Ontario. Our negotiations, beginning in 1991, continue to build on the determined efforts of the Algonquin people to be heard â&#x20AC;&#x201C; including the first message

that was delivered to the Crown through an Algonquin petition in 1772.

These forums aim to complement the many public information sessions held this past March and April as well as provide an opportunity for the Algonquins of Ontario and elected officials from all levels of government to build and

strengthen their relationships with one another. The Algonquin negotiation representatives and other members of the Algonquin Technical Advisory Group will be on hand to share information about the preliminary draft AIP, to answer questions and to hear comments.

The local forum is coming up Mon-

REGIONAL NEWS

Connected to your community

Canadian Foodgrains Bank celebrates 30th anniversary this year EMC News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; April 13 marked the 30th anniversary of the founding of Canadian Foodgrains Bank.

Throughout this year, we wish to celebrate and thank the many people and organizations that have created, built and supported the foodgrains bank over the years â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the early visionaries, the

practical people that worked out the mechanics, the many farmers across the country that caught the vision, the Mennonite Central Committee that established the initial food bank and then invited other churches to join, the 15 Canadian churches and church-based agencies that now belong.

We also want to recognize the hundreds of partner organizations around the world that implement programs, in often difficult circumstances; the growing number of church congregations, both rural and urban, that are participating; the many individuals that generously donate cash; the business community

that supports growing projects and facilitate grain donations and other efforts; and the Canadian International Development Agency that has supported the foodgrains bank from the beginning.

We are thankful that significant progress has been made in reducing the prevalence of hunger around the world

Sunday Night Country Music Show June 9 honours late DJ and promoter the Country Harvest Show he promotes will mark its fifth anniversary in the arena hall.

This past Feb. 9 the Carleton Place Arena Staff Association, of which White is a member, sponsored a Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dance at the facility. More recently, on May 25, the association hosted an appearance by the popular 1950s and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;60s rock band Eddy and the Stingrays which drew a large crowd. All proceeds from both activities went to the Carleton Place Arena Fund which is in place to raise money needed to make long-term improvements to the complex. The arena, officially called the Carleton Place and District Community Centre, is arguably the main focal point for activities in the growing town.

Country favourites This time around White is asking local and area people to â&#x20AC;&#x153;come out and enjoy an evening of oldtime country music favourites. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some of the best country entertainers in eastern Ontario live in and around Carleton Place.â&#x20AC;?

He says the presentation will be a throwback to the Sunday â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Radio Showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; organized by Scott. It was staged in the Carleton Place Town Hall Auditorium and at Perth and District Collegiate Institute Auditorium over the course of several years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Scoon did many shows and they were excellent.

He even had impersonators who honoured country stars like (the late) Buck Owens and Minnie Pearl,â&#x20AC;?

White said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The show on June 9 will offer a mix of oldtime and current country favourites. With Andy involved Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure there will be some yodeling (Bowes is renowned for his ability to yodel) and there will probably be a couple of Gospel songs too,â&#x20AC;? White outlines.

He says Chenier has one of the strongest and best voices he has ever heard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I heard George sing during the Ottawa Valley Country Music Hall of Fame inductions last year.

He was excellent.â&#x20AC;?

Foster, who also performs in the fall show and headlined the February Valentineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dance, has a good reputation and has gained a strong following.

Besides his signature fiddle playing Foster is also an accomplished guitarist and singer.

White adds that Brown and Thibault both entertain regularly at local and area venues and are much appreciated by audiences.

The House Band will be comprised of Bowes (bass guitar), Foster (fiddle), Brad Scott from Pakenham on lead guitar, Mark

Lemieux of Almonte on the drums along with steel guitar wizard Brian Ostrom. Bowesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; brother and fellow band mate John will

handle the sound. leton Place who, with The beneficiary of the Whiteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assistance as proJune 9 venture will be the moter, is sponsoring the St. James Anglican Church See SHOW page 33 Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Council of Car-

EMC Entertainment â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The late Dale â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Scoonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Scott was a relentless promoter of area musicians, athletes and worthy causes.

His Sunday night â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Radio Showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; became familiar to residents of Carleton Place and Perth over the years.

Scott lost a seven-year battle with brain cancer five years ago (June 2008) at the tender age of 42. Carleton Place lost its hardest working and most prominent volunteer!

Scottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Toons by Scoonâ&#x20AC;? disc jockey service was a fixture in the community. A Carleton Place Citizen of the Year (2003), Scott promoted and supported virtually everything that happened in the town including musical events, festivals and sports with an emphasis on junior hockey and high school football.

The diminutive and enthusiastic young man will never be forgotten!

Now his friend and fellow music promoter Bob White has decided to dedicate an upcoming country music show to Scottâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s memory. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say it on the posters. But this is for him â&#x20AC;&#x201C; this is for Scoon. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tribute to the great country music scene we have in Lanark County. But he started the Sunday night music shows and five years later they are still just as popular,â&#x20AC;? White outlines.

What is being billed as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Sunday Night Country Music Showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; will be staged in the main, upper hall of the Carleton Place arena complex on Neelin Street Sunday, June 9 at 7 p.m. Tickets are $15 each.

The evening will feature the music of five wellknown local and regional country music entertainers.

Headlining the presentation are Andy Bowes, a member of the popular Carleton Place family band the Bowes Brothers; singer George Chenier Sr., fiddler Wade Foster and local favourites Dave Brown and Darlene Thibault. The five-member house band including Bowes and Foster are certain to appeal to country music fans.

The master of ceremonies will be well-known area personality Charlie Kitts of Almonte, a 2010 inductee into the Ottawa Valley Country Music Hall of Fame.

White, who in his day job is senior facilities operator at the arena (he works for the Carleton Place Department of Recreation and Culture), is well known for running numerous fundraising activities in the community, especially country music shows. On Sunday, Oct. 20

Awards to celebrate dairy industry achievements EMC News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A new Dairy Farm Award of Distinction will be presented annually at Dairy Farmers of Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (DFO) annual meeting to a dairy farm that has been recognized for achieving high milk quality standards, and showing industry leadership through volunteering or supporting the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dairy industry organizations.

This is one of four awards that make up DFOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new Awards of Distinction program. The other Awards of Distinction are for Bulk Tank Milk Grader, Processor Innovation and Lifetime Achievement.

show. The womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s group is aiding the cause by providing pies and baked goods.

Scott once worked as a caretaker at St. James and he assisted the ladies of the church with their activities during his tenure.

White says they are solidly behind the upcoming tribute to Scott.

He also explains that emcee Kitts will conduct â&#x20AC;&#x153;a pie auction during intermissionâ&#x20AC;? to raise additional funds for the

provincial awards program will recognize the contribution and service of Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dairy industry stakeholders.

The Bulk Tank Milk Grader (BTMG) Award will be presented annually to the BTMG who provides excellent customer service to Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dairy producers and processors.

The Processor Innovation Award will be presented to a processor who was demonstrated innovation and helped enhance the dairy industry.

This innovation could be a new processing facility; an extensively updated processing facility; improved milk receiving facilities; launch of a new product; or launch of a new packaging format.

The Dairy Industry Lifetime Achievement Award will be presented to an individual who has shown significant leadership and has helped advance the Ontario dairy industry. The nominee must have provided service or been engaged in business in Ontario and must have made a significant contribution to the dairy industry (i.e. producer, processor, academia, etc.).

Nominations for all awards will be accepted beginning in January 2014, with the first set of awards to be presented at DFOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual meeting in January 2015, commemorating DFOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 50th anniversary.

White stresses that the upcoming show is â&#x20AC;&#x153;a non-alcohol event â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there will be no bar. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But there will be homemade pie and squares, coffee and tea available at intermission. The ladies will probably be selling some baked goods too that you can take home for the following week,â&#x20AC;? the chief organizer states.

White offers special thanks to Ken Ferguson of Ferguson Graphics in Carleton Place who donated the promotional

materials for the country music night.

Tickets at $15 each are available at the door or by visiting Grahamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Shoes, 139 Bridge St., Carleton Place or Markâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cobbler Shop, 98 Gore St. E. in Perth.

Interested people are also invited to telephone White at 613-253-5046 for tickets or information.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and the show begins at 7 p.m.

Connected to your community

in 1952 changed Victoria Day to the Monday prior to May 24. Then, in 1957, May 24 was further designated to be the Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official birthday in Canada even though in Britain Queen Elizabethâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s birthday is officially marked in June. Her actual birth date is April 21. I will leave you to figure it all out!

Yes, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s confusing In truth it was not an innovation to celebrate the birthday of the reigning king or queen on the birthday of their predecessor. That happened for years. Who knows what will happen in Canada following the passing of the present queen who is 87 and in the 61st year of her long reign?

Yes, all of this Victoria Day stuff is very confusing! So, imagine what will happen if a group of prominent petitioners get their way?

On May 19, the day before Victoria Day 2013, news broke that a group of actors, writers and politicians wants the Canadian government to change the name of Victoria Day to honour Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s First Nations communities as well as the late monarch.

The petitioners, including writer Margaret Atwood, singer Susan Aglukark, actor Gordon Pinsent and Green Party leader Elizabeth May, wants the name changed to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Victoria and First Peoples Dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

In an on-line statement and in a petition sent to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, the group argues that such a change would continue to honour Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s historic relationship with the British monarchy but would also acknowledge the role of Aboriginal peoples in the evolution of the country.

Proponents say such a change would highlight native history and help put a spotlight on issues that have plagued Aboriginal communities. Problems such as discrimination, land treaty disputes, poverty and unemployment.

The person who is spearheading the initiative, actor Peter Keleghan, says Victoria Day has gone from having historical significance to being known as little more than the â&#x20AC;&#x153;May Two-Fourâ&#x20AC;? long weekend.

There has been very little media coverage surrounding this proposal and I doubt it is very high on the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s radar. They have many other serious issues to contend with at present.

However some traditionalists have reacted to the suggestion.

Keleghanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s characterization of a May Two-Four weekend doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sit well with some. They point out that Victoria Day not only honours Queen Victoria, a personage of substantial significance to Canada, but that it is also the current Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official birthday in Canada.

Queen Victoria, by the way, is the person who, in 1857, chose Ottawa to be Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital city. So she certainly made a major impression on our part of Ontario.

My opinion is that combining

Reflections

Victoria Day with a day to celebrate Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s First Nations does a disservice to both and will not achieve the intended purpose.

Why should Victoria Day and the Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official birthday be changed? Or more to the point perhaps, why shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t this countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Aboriginal peoples have a holiday of their own which could be shared by all of their fellow Canadians?

That seems a much better idea to me!

R0012124116/0530

EMC Lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; It seems that some individual or group is always coming up with ideas for new or â&#x20AC;&#x153;improvedâ&#x20AC;? national, provincial or regional holidays.

Besides all of the usual religious observances which are marked globally â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Christmas and Easter remain very prominent dates on the Christian calendar â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there are holidays of one kind or another in every country around the world. On the religious side there are also Jewish, Muslim and Eastern Orthodox holidays which are marked by large numbers of people. Worldwide the holiday list is lengthy!

There are just five national, statutory (compulsory) holidays in Canada. They are New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day (Jan. 1), Good Friday (the Friday before Easter Sunday), Canada Day (July 1), Labour Day (first Monday in September) and Christmas Day (Dec. 25). Federally regulated employees also get Easter Monday, Victoria Day, Boxing Day (Dec. 26), Thanksgiving and Boxing Day off.

Canada remains a relatively young nation and therefore we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t caught up with some countries when it comes to the number of holidays celebrated throughout the year.

Along the way most Canadians are off work on the first Monday in August although it is a statutory holiday in just three provinces and two territories.

Relatively recently Ontario jumped on the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Family Dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bandwagon. We are now one of three Canadian provinces which have a statutory Family Day holiday on the third Monday in February. British Columbia marks the same holiday on the second Monday of February.

In Manitoba the third Monday in February is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Louis Riel Dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; while in Prince Edward Island it is designated â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Islander Dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

So you see the Canadian â&#x20AC;&#x153;holiday mapâ&#x20AC;? alone is varied and somewhat confusing. I could give you lots of other examples.

We have just marked Victoria Day which, for 168 years, has been held to celebrate the birthday of Queen Victoria the influential queen of Great Britain and the British Empire (now the Commonwealth). She continues to hold the record as the longest serving monarch in British history.

Victoria Day is now held on the Monday before May 24 which was the queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s birthday. She died in 1901 at the age of 81 following 63 years and seven months on the throne. Her reign gave rise to the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;Victorian Eraâ&#x20AC;? which remains prominent in British history as a lengthy period of peace and prosperity.

Oddly Canada is the most consistent country in the British Commonwealth when it comes to marking Queen Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s birthday. There is no such day in her birthplace England.

May 24 was designated as a holiday by the Legislature of what was then the British province of Canada in 1845. Following the queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death the Canadian Parliament established May 24 as a national holiday, unless it fell on a Sunday in which case May 25 would serve as the holiday.

rail line blockages spring to mind) there is obviously plenty of room for promoting peace and understanding in Canada.

Perhaps a holiday to honour First Nations people would be a positive step in that direction?

Of course it can be argued that Keleghanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s point about â&#x20AC;&#x153;Two-Fourâ&#x20AC;? long weekend holidays could be applied to every special occasion we have each year.

Because the reality is that with the exception of Canada Day, very few of us focus on what the holiday in question is really about. Most people just want another day off!

Leave it up to Aboriginal Canadians to select a suitable day and make it an annual, national statutory holiday. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t imagine there would be much, if any, complaint about that?

And why should a First Nations celebration have to share the spotlight with another long-established special occasion?

Ontarians at least are always complaining about not having enough official holidays. In June for example there are no holidays in Canada with the exception of Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day (St. John the Baptist Day) on June 24 which is only marked in the province of Quebec.

Town names Glen (Red) Blair Citizen of Year

By STACEY ROY sroy@perfprint.ca

EMC News – For the last 65 years Glen (Red) Blair’s passion to inspire Smiths Falls youth to get active and succeed on and off the sports field has left a positive mark on the community. That community collectively thanked Blair this month by naming him the 2012 Citizen of the Year.

Family, friends and past award recipients rose to their feet in applause May 22 at the Legion for a man who has given 45 years of his life to mentoring young people in the sports of minor hockey, junior hockey, soccer, baseball, t-ball and slopitch.

Surprised to receive such a prestigious community award, Blair thanked everyone in

attendance for the honour.

“It’s certainly wonderful to get an award like this for something you love doing,” Blair said. “In my journey through life this is going to be one extraordinary chapter.”

Blair found his passion for sport at a young age participating in a number of key athletic teams throughout the years in a variety of sports like hockey, baseball, softball, paddling, boxing, football, and track and field.

His desire to share the benefits of sport with his and future generations of Smiths Falls residents led him to work with a team to bring international hockey clubs to town. Blair was also on fundraising committees for several international trips made by Smiths Falls hockey

teams to Europe, Sweden and Denmark.

This hockey fan has the distinction of being inducted into the Smiths Falls Recreation Hall of Fame on three separate occasions: once as an individual and two other times as a member of elite sports teams: the Jr. B Settlers Hockey Club and the Cooper Mohawk midget hockey team.

Blair’s desire to support his hometown has gone beyond the sports fields and ice rinks of Smiths Falls to many other organizations where the local native found he could give back.

This includes past membership in the Smiths Falls Kinsmen Club, the Bolingbroke Hunt Club, and as a fundraiser for the campaign that resulted in the construction of the Youth

Mayor Dennis Staples introduced Blair as the 2012 recipient last Wednesday by saying the man known as ‘Red’ joins an exclusive group of town residents who collectively have made Smiths Falls what it is today.

The annual award was created by then mayor Tom Ashwell in 1969 as a way to stimulate interest of town residents in civic affairs while honouring the shining stars who live among us.

EMC Sports – If you like football and are interested in some local talent, then Lower Reach Park in Smiths Falls will be the place to be on Saturday when about 600 youth converge on the gridiron in the third annual Football in the Falls day.

The Smiths Falls Minor Football League, in conjunction with leagues in Beckwith, Arnprior and Kemptville, will host their mid-season tournament, complete with a tailgate party of sorts.

“There will be barbecues happening, lots of football and great fun for everyone,” said Mark Pankow, the president of the Smiths Falls Football Association.

All arms of the Brockville Youth Football Association will be in attendance. Kids from ages four through 16 take part in this summer football program that covers most of Lanark Leeds and Grenville and wraps up by the end of June, just in time for summer vacations.

“A lot of work goes into creating a special atmosphere for this day,” said Pankow.

“Apart from the exciting play on the field, we will also have our barbecue working overtime as well as draws, vendors and a professional photographer on site.”

Pat Woodcock, former NFL/ CFL player will take part in the ceremonial coin toss to start the bantam game at 4 p.m.

“Pat is a tremendous supporter of amateur football and will be available before and after the coin toss to sign autographs and have pictures taken with players.

Woodcock in town Woodcock had a successful eight-year professional career

as a standout receiver. He played for the NFL’s New York Giants and Washington Redskins. He also played in the CFL for the Montreal Alouettes, Ottawa Renegades, Edmonton Eskimos and the Hamilton Ti-Cats.

Over the course of his career, Woodcock was a Division AllStar and Grey Cup champion.

In 2002, he led the league in average yards per catch and was named Most Outstanding Canadian in the Grey Cup game that same year. He still holds the record for the longest touchdown catch in Grey Cup history.

While at university Woodcock was a team captain for the Syracuse Orange and helped lead Syracuse to three Big East championships and appearances in four National Bowl games.

He was only the third Syracuse football player in history to receive Big East Conference AllAcademic honors on four occasions.

A native of eastern Ontario, Woodcock grew up in Kanata and attended Holy Trinity High School. He played football locally for the Kanata Knights, Myers Riders and Ottawa Sooners. He is founder and owner of the Elite Performance Academy in Kanata and is a highly sought after coach, trainer and public speaker.

Big thanks Pankow said the day would not be as successful and fun as it is were it not for the help of the entire committee of the executive for their hours of work behind the scenes.

“A special nod to Heidi Trick for taking the lead on Football in the Falls and to the Jordan family, (Judy and Gerry) for constructing and donating a wooden scoreboard for our use See FOOTBALL page SF16

Visitors to Doors Open on June 9 will have an opportunity to explore the site at 85 William St. West on which the REAL Deal Store and Environment Centre are located. The three acre naturalized parcel of land is interestingly adjacent to a significant wetland known as “The Swale”.

“We want to show the community that, as an environmental organization, REAL is much more than a reuse store,” notes Barb Hicks, Doors Open Coordinator for REAL. “We’d like to show what we’ve already done to our property and share our excitement for other planned features for our environment centre.”

EMC Events - This is the seventh in a series of profiles on Doors Open Smiths Falls 2013 sites that will be published in the EMC in the weeks leading up to the June 9 event.

Rideau Canal Gateshop Parks Canada welcomes thousands of boaters and canal users to the Rideau Canal every year.

As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the canal is known for its beauty, recreation and a unique sense of history, but behind the scenes, an important and talented team at Parks Canada is responsible for constructing the lock gates that seal off the lock chambers at each of the 23 lockstations along the 202 kilometres of the Rideau Canal between Kingston and Ottawa.

The Rideau Canal lock gates are fabricated by hand (with the aid of some modern tools) at the Rideau Canal Gateshop in Smiths Falls. It takes, on average, a crew of three to four skilled Parks Canada tradesmen to build three pairs of 15-ft. lock gates every year.

The creation of these massive gates, which are made of Douglas fir and have a typical lifespan of approximately 20 years, is in keeping with the authentic traditional methods used by gate craftsmen over 180 years ago.

“Parks Canada is committed to working in partnership with communities along the Rideau Canal to foster recreation, tourism and economic development in innovative ways that will contribute to local economies,” says Jewel Cunningham, Director, Ontario Waterways. “Doors Open is a fun opportunity to collaborate with our partner communities and engage visitors in gaining a new appreciation for some of the behind the scenes work we do here at Parks Canada to protect and present our nation’s heritage treasures for present and future generations.”

Council passes â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;best compromiseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; budget in third reading

By STAFF

Some councillors felt the time is soon coming for this philosophy to change. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of work that needs to be done,â&#x20AC;? remarked Chris Cummings.

He, along with Ken Graham, felt the town could absorb some tax rate increase on top of the Municipal Property Assessment Corporationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s (MPAC) annual assessment increases if it meant getting some much-needed roads and other capital projects done.

A town press release reminds residents that while the rate was frozen by council the average home in town can expect an increase in taxes due to assessment. On average, this will amount to slightly less than $50 this year for every $100,000 of assessed value. In addition, the town has approved a five

per cent increase in water consumption rates to help offset the maintenance and operation of the water and waste water services.

Coun. Shawn Pankow expressed concern over the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existing debt load and the possibility that the weight of it will hinder the town from moving on opportunities as they present themselves. He points to the completed Downtown Rejuvenation and Waterfront Integration plan as something that could â&#x20AC;&#x153;transform the core of townâ&#x20AC;? and should be a priority in future years.

Brennan reminded his peers that debt room for the year 2014-2015 sits at $95,500, but quickly increases to $412,639 by 2017. He added itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to note the debt load incurred made

Author Hudson will also be on hand from 1 to 4 p.m. to join in on the celebration, view the pieces inspired by her book, and answer any questions anyone may have in regards to the stories that inspired the students.

Hudson said she is more than pleased to see her book inspire the next generation of local history. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was the whole purpose of the book,â&#x20AC;? Hudson said.

Admission to the art show grand opening is free as this is a Doors Open Smiths Falls event.

EMC Events - Visit the Heritage House Museum in Smiths Falls from June 9 to July 31 to catch a glimpse of Smiths Fallsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; past as the Grade 10, 11 and 12 art students from Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute showcase their one- of- a-kind art show, Visual Stories from â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Our Townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

Each art student was given the opportunity to choose a story from a book titled â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Our Townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; written by local author Valerie Hudson.

Each tale found in â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Our Townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; depicts various aspects of Smiths Falls history as told by local community residents. With this inspiration the art students went to work capturing the stories in a variety of different mediums. With more than 40 pieces there is a lot of history to see.

The approved budget includes operational expenses that are slightly down from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s levels. The only new element in the budget was the $50,000 line item from last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget to this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for the Hub pool project.

Other budget elements include a trimmer capital expenditures list, which

comes in at $774,596 this year. The key projects in the budget include: storm sewer work on Old Mill Road, road work on Abbott Street from Alfred to Lombard streets; William Street East from Elmsley to Winnifred streets; Broadview East from Isabella to Catherine streets; and Cornelia Street from Union Street to the town limit.

EMC News - Council unanimously passed this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget feeling confident they did the best they could this time around, but vowing to improve in a couple of areas next year.

The majority of council felt it important to pass the budget earlier than the end of May to allow municipal staff to receive the most competitive tender prices possible and relieve the need to approve out-of-budget expenses early on. Everyone (including Jay Brennan who is supporting the budget for the first time in his career as a municipal councillor) around the horseshoe May 21 cast their vote in favour of the 2013 budget that will see the tax rate frozen for another year.

TOWN COUNCIL Fundraiser helps â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;jump startâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; access to programming IN BRIEF EMC News - The following information comes from the regular council session held May 21, 2013 and the regular committee-of-the whole meeting held Monday, May 27, 2013.

Library façade

Council formally approved awarding the $186,290 (plus HST) tender to Roof and Building Service International to complete the façade repairs to the Smiths Falls Public Library. Tenders were opened a couple of weeks ago and work is expected to begin as soon as possible to stabilize the columns in front. Coun.

Chris Cummings, who sits on the libraryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s building committee, said the library will remain open throughout construction.

Culture Heritage Centre update

A vision to create a Cultural Heritage Centre at the Heritage House Museum on Old Slys Road will become clearer in the coming weeks when a draft building needs assessment is brought to committeeof-the-whole for review. Please see future issues of the Record News for more details as they become available.

All funds raised support giving local children access to after-school programs such as baseball.

Council accepted an amendment to the fire dispatch agreement with the county that would see the new Smiths Falls Police Station as the backup support for Lanark Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fire service dispatch systems. Previously this service was provided by the Perth dispatch centre (police).

Plant pump purchase

Councillors approved a necessary out-of-budget expense this week to the upset limit of $15,000, which will allow for the replacement of a dated variable frequency drive at the Water Pollution Control Plant. The drive is needed to operate a sewage lift pump and was 20 years old.

The pumps allow the plant to keep up with the flow of material coming into the plant, so it is important to get back to three pumps as soon as possible.

Red Cross agreement

Smiths Falls and other municipalities within Lanark County have recently signed a shelter agreement with the Red Cross that spells out area facilities that can be used as emergency shelter in a disaster. The new Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute on Percy Street has been highlighted as one location.

Murphy building

Coun. Dawn Quinn asked her peers around the horseshoe to consider shifting the new washroom facility in Centennial Park slightly away from where the Murphy Building once stood in order to maintain the beautiful view of the water.

Council members expressed interest in looking at this provided it fell within budget, but added they would consider it as an additional item and not an amendment to the tender that closes this Thursday.

The centre is operating a Species

At Risk scavenger hunt that will take participants throughout the entire museum looking for clues and finding each animal on their list. Be sure to ask for a complimentary clue list and a species at risk brochure at the front desk to start your hunt.

The static displays are out, including the scale model of a luxury tour boat where visitors can step inside and feel first-hand the experience on the water.

Fitz-Hardy is a full-time employee of Parks Canada who splits her time between the Rideau Canal visitor centre in the summer and promotional work along Georgian Bay in the fall to spring each year. In 2011-2012 she worked on the Rideau Canal in their marketing and promotions department and is excited to get back on the 202km waterway this season.

Since its inception the award has been given out to the individual voted on by a committee (made up of a representative from each service club) following community-wide applications. In 2006 the award was renamed the Dr. T.O. Ashwell Memorial Award to honour its creator who passed away that year.

Blair humbly thanked everyone for their support over the years, particularly his family and Rick Plontz. This past weekend Blair and the Cancer Classic organizing committee celebrated 20 years of raising funds for cancer research at the Smiths Falls Golf and Country Club. During his acceptance speech, Blair asked the crowd to applaud the exceptional work of the Cancer Classic committee, past and present, which has made this annual event such a success.

Blair has been volunteering with this cause since its inception in 1993.

EMC News - Crime Stoppers and the Smiths Falls Police Service are seeking your assistance in solving a Break and Enter to a residence in the area of Montague St. and Ogden Ave. Sometime between 12:30 a.m. and 6 a.m. on May 27, 2013 suspect(s) entered R0012123439_0530

During this period the town had limited ability to respond to fires due to reduced water pressure.

Coun. Ken Graham urged anyone with information on this mischief to please call police, noting the seriousness of this act.

“They actually jeopardize lives when they do this,” he said.

It’s also been confirmed that the towns of Perth and Carleton Place suffered the same acts of mischief early Sunday morning.

“All three police departments are looking into it,” Joynt said.

As a result of this incident the communities of Renfrew, Perth, Carleton Place, Kemptville, and Arnprior have exchanged plant contact information so they can alert neighbouring communities should a similar event take place in the future.

Joynt said he has never seen an act of mischief of this type as extensive as the incident that occurred last weekend.

“In the years I’ve been with the town I’ve only seen this once before,” Joynt said, adding it was Halloween night in the 1990s.

Council asked if there was some type of security device available that could be placed on fire hydrants but not impede emergency workers.

Joynt said there are banding devices, but it would be fairly expensive to outfit every fire hydrant in town with such a device as a precautionary measure.

Local woman looks to bring pain management tool to market ing panel.

“It made me feel so encouraged,” Hitchins said of the overall experience.

She plans to return to the winter auditions this year armed with her patent and product survey feedback in hopes of interesting dragon Arlene Dickinson to work with her. In order to sell the Hitchins Post, Bev will have to purchase a $7,000 class one medical device licence as well as the cost of making an acrylic mould. To do this Hitchins needs to find investors, be they ‘dragons’ or not. She is currently working with a Smiths Falls business to develop the mould.

With things moving so fast in a positive direction, Hitchins felt she needed to understand the spectrum of individuals The Hitchins Post could help.

As a result, about two weeks ago she began her product-effectiveness study and approached interested Smiths Falls businesses to see if their staff would be Photo courtesy of FACEBOOK willing to test out the device and pro-

By STACEY ROY sroy@perfprint.ca

EMC News - When Bev Hitchins of Smiths Falls invented the Hitchins Post her goal was to relieve her unending pain caused by fibromyalgia and lupus. Through the manufacturing and eventual sale of the product, Hitchins hopes to expand this focus to others in the future.

“All I want to do is see people out of pain,” Hitchins said.

She knows all too well the frustration that comes with chronic pain.

“It’s debilitating,” she added. “You wake up feeling like you’ve been hit by a Mack truck first thing in the morning.”

The Hitchins Post is currently in a prototype form of wood and metal with patent pending, but the Smiths Falls native said she would love to see the modest tool made of acrylic to allow its use on airplanes.

The way the Hitchins Post works is by pinpointing pressure points on the neck and back with two balls, but the beauty is that each user is in control of the amount of pressure they apply.

“I think the reason why it works is because you’re in control,” Hitchins said. “All you do is slowly back up to it.”

The tool comes with velcro and two strips of attracted velcro that can be mounted onto a wall so the Hitchins Post can be moved to the area on the back or neck that needs to be addressed at that time.

“For people who don’t need it it hurts, but for people who do need it they’re in ecstasy,” Hitchins said.

vide written feedback on how it worked for them. So far she has more than 30 devices out in the community and hopes to begin gathering critical feedback by next month. To date, the feedback she has received has been positive.

“I needed to find out if it worked,” she said.

Each prototype costs about $20 to make. Hitchins created the first one and donated it to the first business that offered to cover the cost of the next one after finding it effective. This pay-itforward technique has been working ever since.

The local woman would like to thank Rideau Lumber for supporting her efforts in making the prototypes.

Should this invention become successful, Hitchins has said there are more ideas where this one came from and hopes to bring more of her creations aimed at providing comfort to those living in discomfort to the market place.

Beverley Hitchins of Smiths Falls thanks the over 30 local businesses and their staff for trying her pain management tool, the Hitchins Post, and providing written feedback to help in its development. The local woman plans to return to the Dragon’s Den auditions this winter.

Open Stage returns June 2

She feels the tool works by shocking the muscles causing them to rethink, which allows blood to flow through the knots and tension in the body.

Hitchins encourages users to see the Hitchins Post as a supplement to their existing chiropractic or massage treatment. She said she created it because she often ran into problems outside of the regular business hours of her chiropractor.

EMC Entertainment - For the 17th year in a row Open Stage will be setting up at Lower Reach Park to offer free music to an appreciative audience while exposing local talent to the joy of the stage.

Helping others It was just a couple of years ago that the local woman thought perhaps her tool could help others and she began looking into what was needed to make this a reality.

viding a supportive venue for local residents and visiting singers, Hitchins says she is inspired most by the level of talent coming from the youth. Providing this age group with a first-time positive experience on stage does wonders for their self-esteem.

“I’d like to think we’re helping them get ready for something bigger and better,” she said.

Participants are welcome to perform for up to 15 minutes each on a first come, first serve basis.

Looking Back 100 YEARS AGO - MAY 27, 1913

Mr. A Daniels of Prescott telephoned Chief Phillips on Saturday night to watch out for a stolen horse and buggy belonging to him. The horse is described as bay in colour with a white star and two white hind feet weighing about 1100 pounds.

At the sporting events in Carleton Place on Saturday, Smiths Falls was well represented.

Mr. Wm. Paul took the first prizes in the high jump and 100 yards and Clifford Love came in 3rd in the 100 yards.

50 YEARS AGO - MAY 30, 1963 Roger L. Gordon, RR4, Smiths Falls, was fined a total of $76.50 in Police Court Monday morning for failing to remain at the scene of an accident. The occurrence on April 27, caused the entire south end of town to be blacked out for several hours.

Are there two sets of building standards governing the construction of Public and Separate schools in Ontario? This is the question the Smiths Falls Planning Board will ask the Ontario Department of Education, on the request of the town’s Committee of Adjustment. During Mondays’s meeting of the Planning Board, it was announced that St. Francis de Sales Separate School has received permission to construct a four-room addition at the Elmsley street end of the school.

When Daddy became Wrong Way Corrigan

25 YEARS AGO - JUNE 1, 1988

EMC Editorial - One of the best stories my mother told me as a child was of the IrishAmerican aviator “Wrong Way Corrigan.”

As she told it, in the 1930s, he was due to fly from the east coast to Los Angeles. After flying through thick fog for many hours, he saw lights on the ground and landed and discovered that he had arrived in Ireland!

I too got lost with my daughter and our dog Bella recently on a weekend walk, but there were no funny backward headlines in the New York Post or movies (The Flying Irishman) about this episode.

We were walking near the park at the T.R. Leger school here in town when Michaela began straining to go see some trees. She wanted to reach out and touch the pine trees, then giggled delightedly at the sensation. After getting back to nature, feeling a little like Dr. Livingston, I emerged from the trees, saw the park across the road, and continued walking.

Then a voice called out.

“There’s no sidewalk through my front yard,” said a female voice behind me. I looked around and realized that I was standing in the middle of someone’s front lawn. I was in the wrong place at the wrong time and certainly she had a right to be angry.

Forgive us our trespasses, indeed.

Probably after months of students traipsing across her lawn she’d had it. I sheepishly offered my apologies and headed off.

Peter Fuest will probably remember the boys on train 501 for a long time. The three man crew of engineer Bill Curry, conductor Jim Hannah and trainman Ken Lee saved Mr. Fuest from a life threatening situation May 11 while en route from Smiths Falls to Agincourt.

A Smiths Falls woman has complained to the Minister of Community Social Services over a Lanark Children’s Aid Society’s handling of a case involving her grandson. The woman sent a letter to John Sweeney stating the agency had ignored her complaints that her grandson had been abused by his step-father.

10 YEARS AGO - MAY 30, 2003 The warmer weather is here, a time for getting active and enjoying the outdoors. It’s now also a time to be ready for West Nile virus (WNv).

As spring brings new life and colour, it also brings a new exhibit — ‘A World of Fabrics’, a new special event; ‘Doors Open Smiths Falls’ and a Spring Tea to Heritage House Museum.

The whole family can enjoy these activities, as well as, period costumed interpreters who step back to 1867 in this Victorian historic home.

Compiled by: PAGE TAYLOR

DESMOND DEVOY Des Says I had absolutely no rejoinder, nothing close to a valid excuse. I just wanted to show my daughter the trees. I felt like Bart Simpson who came into class late and, when Mrs. Krebapple told him to go to the principal’s office, he began protesting. Spinning around to face the clock, he pointed, then began counting the clock.

“Five, ten, fifteen, twenty...wow, that’s pretty darn late!” I had no excuse. I felt terrible.

I was reminded of a similar case in Carleton Place that our colleague Tara Gesner brought to our attention recently.

On a recent afternoon, kids were playing on the new Howitzer guns in Memorial Park. A passing combat veteran noticed the kids clambering over the equipment, and grew upset at what he saw as disrespect for a war memorial.

Not wanting to seem like one of those “Hey you kids, get off my lawn!” old fogies, he calmly told the mothers watching nearby of his concerns, and the kids were called down.

The guns are right next to the Carleton Place Public Library, so there are any number of children running around on any given day.

Big guns have always been a magnet for kids.

I remember playing on artillery as a child in, if memory serves, Gage Park in Brampton, and I am sure that the guns in the park off of the main drag in Merrickville also attract children.

Certainly, veterans don’t want a piece of field artillery to be seen as no different than a teeter-totter or a slide.

But others see children playing like that as a testament to hard-won peace, in the hopes that those guns will never again be used in anger, or that they will hopefully never need to use them themselves.

Indeed, seeing artillery up close lets a child realize that, no, war is real, and is not like some disembodied video game.

A lot of it is in perspective too.

As the Irish republican icon Bobby Sands once said, “our revenge will be in the laughter of our children.”

Back in Smiths Falls, after the incident, I was still feeling pretty low at having set a bad example for my daughter. I was pretty quiet, being hard on myself.

My daughter looked up at me, and asked “Why are you sad?”

Her little hand reached out for mine, and I took her in my arms and held her tight, enjoying hugging her little form.

Then she offered me some dandelions and, suddenly, everything was better. She giggled again and ran off to enjoy the sunshine-lit fields, bounding out as the dog chased after her.

HAPPY 65TH ANNIVERSARY May 29 Dad and Mom Murray & Vada Tye Don’t think of them as gone away, their journey’s just begun. life holds so many facets this earth is only one.

Just think of them as resting from the sorrows and the tears in a place of warmth and comfort where there are no days and years.

Think how they must be wishing that we could know today how nothing but our sadness Can really pass away.

And think of them as living in the hearts of those they touched… for nothing loved is ever lost and they were loved so much.

Thanks for the memories All our love Chris and Julie Karen Cheryl and Michael Marsha and Brian Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren

EMC Lifestyle - Travel season is finally upon us and for many that means towing a trailer of some type. Here are a few tips on keeping you, your passengers, your vehicle, and your trailer safe and sound.

Know your limits – While you can buy a trailer hitch for just about any vehicle on the market, not all vehicles are rated to tow a trailer and those that are, have limits.

Check your auto’s owner’s manual to find out what you can safely tow. Many carmakers have reduced the trailer ratings over the last few years as lighter body and chassis components combined with smaller engines and lighter transmission have been introduced to improve fuel economy ratings. If your vehicle is a relatively new compact or subcompact, it most likely won’t be rated to tow any type of trailer. If you show up at your dealership’s service department for a warranty repair with a trailer hitch bolted to the rear, you may run into difficulty if any failure can be related to trailer towing.

For those vehicles and trucks that are rated to tow, don’t assume you can increase their capacity with a few suspension or engine/ transmission cooling modifications. Even the beefiest suspension mods won’t increase an axle’s capability of supporting an increased load beyond what it was designed to take. And many newer vehicles use computers to monitor engine and transmission temperatures and if these components run too hot, the control systems can either limit the vehicle speed or shut it down altogether to avoid major damage.

Get the right hitch - With our current large selection of custom-fit hitches at very reasonable prices, there’s no need to buy a multi-fit hitch made to bolt to different vehicles, but fitting none very well. Look for established brands such as Draw-Tite, Curt, Hidden-Hitch or Reese.

These are designed to bolt on without drilling and come with the right type of attaching hardware to provide a solid and lasting fit. Just about every hitch that’s used today is the receiver style that has a removable bar that the ball is attached to.

These are popular because when the hitch is not in use, the ball-mount bar can easily be removed and stowed in the trunk keeping a clean look to the rear bumper and eliminating those painful shin strikes when loading and unloading cargo from the back.

On the topic of these ballmount bars, it’s usually a good idea to hold off buying one (they don’t always come with the hitch) until you check the level between the hitch re-

Car Counsellor BRIAN TURNER

ceiver and the trailer tongue.

Ball-mounts come in a wide variety of configurations with some that sit the ball higher than the hitch receiver, some that sit lower, and some that stick straight out. It’s always best to have the trailer tongue sitting level when it’s attached to the vehicle.

You’ll often see vehicles with the ball-mount adapters in place even though it’s not towing a trailer. Sometimes it’s just forgetfulness but often it’s because the owner can’t get the bar out because of rust. At the beginning and end of every towing season, it’s a good idea to take a narrow steel-bristle brush and clean out the hitch receiver hole and apply a light coating of grease to the ball-mount bar and inside the receiver hole. If you’re worried about grease stains from the ballmount bar when it’s stowed in the vehicle, simply wrap it in a plastic bag.

Light it up – Trailer light wiring used to be a simple affair, with an unsophisticated four-prong plug harness wired into the vehicle’s rear lights supplying power for trailer brake and signal lamps.

With more and more vehicles utilizing computers and electronic circuits to operate exterior lights, hooking up a trailer harness isn’t as easy as it once was. Fortunately most trailer hitch manufacturers also list and sell vehicle model-specific wiring harness kits that don’t require any cutting or splicing.

If you’ve purchased and installed such a kit and the trailer lights still don’t work, the vehicle’s body computer may have to have its software updated to activate the lights.

This programming is usually only available at a dealership service department.

EMC News - Residents in the Sussex/Empress Avenue area recently celebrated the opening of their community house - the first permanent location where outreach programs could be offered close to home.

The official opening took place during the Lanark County Housing Corporation’s annual barbecue and community clean-up day May 25. Christine Culham, director at Lanark County Housing Corporation explained the multi-organization initiative as a way to tangibly address transportation and trust issues residents may have in accessing existing local services.

“What we want to do is break down the barriers,” Culham said.

The house is two stories with an open meeting room down stairs and kitchen.

Upstairs there is a smaller meeting room, playroom and office space for Connections. Currently, the community house has a week day schedule of programs including gardening groups on Monday afternoons, Big Brothers Big Sisters and Smiths Falls & District Center for Youth on Tuesdays, and Connections and Big Brothers Big Sisters on Thursday to name a few.

“We’re hoping that it’s going to grow,” Culham said.

The community house is located at 42C Empress Avenue in Smiths Falls and was born out of a suggestion from the Smiths Falls Sussex/Empress Steering Committee. This committee is made up of local service providers and residents of the neighbourhood.

Once the suggestion received majority support, an agreement was reached between Lanark County Housing Corporation and Connections to establish the house.

A naming contest for the house was part of last Saturday’s celebrations. All suggestions will go to the next steering committee meeting for voting. The community house is the most recent project the committee has taken on.

Past projects include a youth gardening group and ongoing efforts to create a natural playground near Highland Park (Empress Street).

Last Saturday volunteers came out to the natural playground location to continue cleaning up the area for this year’s planned work.

“Today, I’m hoping we can get it to square one,” said Samantha Parent, the town’s horticulturist.

This year, the area is planned to be completely cleaned up including the removal of hazardous limbs and general brush. The placement of compost over the large rocks is also hoped for this season. Parent thanks the many local gardens who have donated perennial plants to be placed inside the natural playground for some additional colour this summer.

Regardless of authorization, remember the person who ignites the fire is responsible for it’s duration and any effect that fire or smoke may have on neighbouring persons or property.

“If the fire gets away, you pay!”

Theo Fleury aims to make sex abuse changes a 2015 campaign issue

Dashel Van Dusen is held by his father, Kevin while hockey legend and child abuse advocate, Theo Fleury signs his bib May 21 at the Perth Subway. Fleury is hoping to see tangible changes made to the federal attributes his healing to spirituality.”

In fact, Fleury made the bold claim that traditional medicine can do much more than heal the mind and soul.

He pointed to sweat lodges he has been involved with through a native medicine man. A patient was brought in from the Tom Baker Cancer Centre to take part in a sweat which, he claims, cured the patient of cancer.

“You’re telling me there’s no cure for cancer?” said Fleury.

Many members of Spartan athletics from St. John Catholic High School also skipped class to meet a sporting icon.

“He was a really good hockey player and an inspiration,” said Marshall Norwood, a Grade 12 student.

The Victor Walk has been a great opportunity to speak with others, but has had its share of challenges, Fleury says.

“The first three or four days were difficult, but I wanted it to be difficult,” Fleury admitted. “Once the muscle mem-

ory kicked in from being an athlete for the first 35 years of my life, everything was good.”

Because he didn’t know how the Victor Walk would be received, Fleury said he had no expectations for the initiative.

“Obviously (in my life) I’ve learned not to have expectations. When you have them, you let yourself down,” he stated. “And I think because I didn’t have any expectations, that made the walk even more meaningful and rewarding.” “...But we have raised awareness,” Fleury added.

“The whole country is talking about the walk.”

To keep their inspiration and morale up, the Victor team chose a different theme for each day, Fleury noted.

The first day they walked in support of children and on other days, walked for men, women and Nova Scotia teen Rehteah Parsons, who committed suicide in April after suffering abuse. May 22’s theme was empowerment.

“The laws aren’t going to

“The laws aren’t going to change; not today and not tomorrow, maybe never, but I know that we have brought a lot of awareness to this (issue) and we have also given people hope that they can heal and go on to have a positive and happy and productive life.”

Fans back effort There was no shortage of people waiting outside of the restaurant who agreed with Fleury’s assertion that Canada’s laws regarding sexual abuse needed to be changed.

“It (child sexual abuse) is something that is overlooked in Canada and it’s not dealt with harshly enough,” said Trevor Choffe, who got a Calgary Flames jersey signed for his son Xavier, and a copy of Fleury’s tell-all autobiography, Playing With Fire.

Even Perth’s town crier, Brent McLaren, championed Fleury’s call during his welcoming remarks.

“We want to better proTHEO FLEURY tect our children and ensure more access to funding,” for programs that can help them, and to prevent abuse in the first place, said McLaren.

Kevin Van Dusen brought his six-month-old son with him to meet Fleury, and get his bib signed.

“Everything he’s encountered, he’s fought through it, which is saying something, especially with everything that’s out there today,” said Van Dusen.

Part of Fleury’s healing journey has been seeking out native spirituality, a connection to his Metis roots, in sweat lodges.

“Theo’s quick to admit that the past can be healing,” said Photo by DESMOND DEVOY Bill Goodwin, a Cherokee whose company, Terra Sine EMC News - Hockey star, Theo Fleury visited the area last week in hopes Resource Ltd., was helping of seeing real change for children who are sexually abused as he was. to fund Fleury’s walk. “He At left, he hugs a fan.

have a society smart enough to start to deal with this issue” and the underlying ills that spawn it, like drugs and alcohol.

“The sicker we are as a society, the more money is made,” he said.

For many years, as outlined in his tell-all autobiography, Playing With Fire, he too went though the motions as a hockey player, never really coming alive until the playoffs.

“It causes us (survivors) to walk around asleep and blinds us to what is going on in the world,” said Fleury. “Nobody talks about waking up.”

Fleury hopes to make his Victor Walk an annual event and even toyed with walking from Calgary, where he is still revered, to Edmonton, Alberta’s capital city, and looking at picking a different Canadian province each year in which to conduct the walk.

“It’s been a life changing experience for all of us,” he said. “We believe that that initial reveal is where you get rid of shame and when you can get rid of shame on this subject, I think that starts you down that path to healing…

This whole thing is about healing the body, healing the mind, healing the soul.”

EMC Sports – Theo Fleury’s awareness walk for survivors of sexual abuse may continue beyond Parliament Hill and into the next federal election.

“I wouldn’t be going to Ottawa if I didn’t have eight million votes in my back pocket,” said Fleury as he stopped for lunch at the Subway restaurant on Highway 7 in Perth on Tuesday, May 21.

“I’ll follow Harper around on his whole campaign,” if need be, Fleury promised, during the anticipated 2015 campaign, in order to toughen up Canada’s child sexual abuse laws, which sometimes see predators locked away for as little as a few months, something he finds chilling in that 98 per cent of these offenders reoffend.

“If Justin Trudeau was smart, he would hitch himself to this,” said Fleury. “I’ve tweeted him a bunch of times.

No response,” as opposed to the five million Twitter hits he got back in December when he announced his walk.

“Why don’t we have a Minister for Common Sense?” he added. “My advice to you is, in 2015, as a citizen of Canada, make sure you ask your politician” about changes to laws regarding child sexual abuse – and refuse to vote for anyone who won’t commit to doing so.

On May 23, Fleury’s walk from Toronto to Ottawa ended on Parliament Hill. It began May 14 at the Child Abuse Monument in Toronto with Fleury walking approximately 40 kilometres a day. In addition to raising awareness of better penalties for child sexual abuse offenders, he also collected funds for three charities: Siksika Nations, Little Warriors and the Quinte Sexual Assault Centre. Afterwards, he met with MPs at a reception, but he was realistic about the reasons why the politicos really want to meet with him.

“For them, it is more of a photo op than listening to me,” said Fleury. He advised the politicians to “take the cotton out of your ears and put it in your mouth. That’s what you guys need to do.”

The hockey legend, who won the Stanley Cup with the Calgary Flames in 1989, later played for the New York Rangers, and won gold for Canada at the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics (as well as playing for Team Canada in 1998 in Nagano, Japan).

He estimates that one in three girls and one in five boys are molested in Canada before the age of 18, and that, when a pedophile is finally caught, he usually has left about 125 victims in his wake.

“It’s the largest epidemic on the planet,” said Fleury.

“This isn’t a single person

a country song played backwards. I got my wife back, my kids back, my life back,” he concluded.

Minor football shines Big football programs at St. John Catholic High School in Perth (two county championships last fall with the junior and senior teams) have graduated players from the local minor football program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smiths Falls is a real powerhouse and about 80 per cent of these kids (on the Spartansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; football teams) have come through five-six years the minor football program.

In minor football we have the luxury of university players who are home and have taken their coaching course.â&#x20AC;?

Football has changed so much, especially when teaching tackling, Pankow said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of the coaching course now, taking the head out of tackling all together. Ten years ago, some drills at high school at minor level, we just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do them anymore, because it puts the kids in vulnerable situations.

There have been some huge changes in the play of the game.â&#x20AC;?

Safe contact protocol, keeping the heads-up approach, are just two methods of new coaching that has been implemented over the past few years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are starting to see results in the younger kids in terms of less head injuries.

St. John wins senior girls county soccer title

By LAURIE WEIR ljweir@metroland.com

EMC Sports – Two tough teams met Wednesday, May 22 for the Lanark County Interschool Athletic Association title but only one could take the title of senior girls champion.

In the end it was the St. John Catholic High School over Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute that emerged the victors – but it wasn’t without a tough battle to the 1-0 finish line.

“It was a total team effort today,” said coach Dave MacKenzie. “The best part… the girls believed they could win and they believed in each other and we had a lot of contributions across the bench.”

The only goal came early in the

game when Elizabeth Holmes kicked home the game winner just 10 minutes into the match.

“Liz was a great leader today,” said the coach. “She is a tremendous player and helped capitalize on the opportunities.”

Smiths Falls didn’t go down without a fight, however, as a full field press showed off St. John’s defensive strength to keep it to the one-goal game.

The soccer gods were smiling on goalkeeper Shawna Merkley, who had some help from the crossbar to keep one goal out in the first half. And a scramble in front of the net was also held at bay by the tenacious keeper.

“I have to give kudos to the girls,”

said Shelly Thompson, the coach of the Smiths Falls RedHawks. “I’m sad… sad that it wasn’t us (to win the game) but it was an evenly-matched game.

There were two good teams out there.

We had some tough breaks and couldn’t capitalize on the opportunities, and St. John has a great team.”

MacKenzie also had high praise for the RedHawks, a team he added gives their all in all sports and is their toughest competition in LCIAA play. “”They’re our fiercest competition in all sports,” he said. “And they’re a fantastic group of students.”

EOSSAA senior girls soccer will be held in Cornwall at Holy Trinity Catholic Secondary School on Tuesday, May 28.

AAU basketball program kicks off competitive season in Elgin ljweir@metroland.com

EMC Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Some highly-competitive teens are kicking it up and laying it out on the hard court.

A newly-recruited American Athletic Union (AAU) girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; basketball team is taking shape at Rideau District High School comprised of nine Grade 9 (and two Grade 10) athletes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; five from Rideau District High School (RDHS), and four more from Kingston. A recent point-guard consideration may also be added to the roster. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you want to play competitive basketball around here, you have to travel,â&#x20AC;? said Scott Halladay, RDHS community coach, whose daughter Taylor is one of the athletes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to go to Ottawa or Toronto to play,â&#x20AC;? added Wendy Talbot, who also has a competitive basketball player on the team, Blythe Talbot-Cadue.

Halladay and Talbot are managing this new team and have enlisted the help of Kingston coach, the affable, but tough Michael Marchand. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NCAA certified to take this team of girls to the junior nationals next month in Syracuse, as well as a few other big tournaments.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very exciting to see a girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; team of this caliber here,â&#x20AC;? said Marchand, as he ran a practice at RDHS on Tuesday, May 21. It was the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third, intense two-hour workout. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This group of girls has shown their commitment and a lot of strength and dedication. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been fantastic,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Marchand â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who is volunteering as the girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; coach â&#x20AC;&#x201C; said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emphasizing the basics. If they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get that down pat, then their opposition will run rings around them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Staying with the fundamentals and doing that season to seasonâ&#x20AC;? is what he said he focuses on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They have a good work ethic, and their increasing that. I am helping them learn what they need to work on and we are working on making that better.â&#x20AC;?

Marchand said these girls will have a great opportunity to have American scouts taking a look during their play during USA PreNationals, as there will be more than 2,800 of them present over the two-day period spanning June Photo by LAURIE WEIR 14-16 in Syracuse.

Twilighters battle elements

By THE BOGEYMAN

EMC Sports - The May 23 edition of the Thursday Night Menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Twilight was a testament to just how much men love to play golf. Facing cruel, wet, winter-like conditions, we persevered, fighting the elements â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and ourselves â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to find glory and a way home. In the end, it was all worth it.

With everyone playing the front nine due to the extreme conditions, it was the Cyr Expedition that planted its flag atop the A Division. Dan led his team of Greg â&#x20AC;&#x153;Champâ&#x20AC;? Hull, Tom McLaren, and Justin Jennings to a scramble score of 29. They were forced to eat their sled dogs and a conflict still exists over just how many Greg consumed.

Paul Cadeau, Ian Devonshire, Scott Devonshire, Peter Cahill, Warren Garton, and Tony Carboni returned as B Division victors, posting a 34.

Suffering from a severe case of scurvy, they were placed on a strict regimen of French fries and amber liquids. All are doing well.

The Roosteraunt closest-to-the-pin prizes went to Scott Prout and Paul Cadeau for their Hail Mary tee shots on holes 3 and 8. Adam Summers took

home one of the Burns Jewellers prizes for the best approach shot on number 4.

George Hewitt and David Kayser (also members at the Iqaluit Golf and Country Club) launched the Town and Country Longest Drives on holes 1 and 5. Denis â&#x20AC;&#x153;His Worshipâ&#x20AC;? Routhier was the lucky 50/50 prize winner, and Colin Brown took home the bottle of Rockyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Man Overboard!â&#x20AC;?

Thanks to New Horizons Communications and Century 21 for a great prize table, and for being a beacon of light in the storm. For those of you who came out to play, well done!

EMC Sports – The Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute boys rugby team walked away with a win, a tie, and two losses to learn from during a recent tournament in Cornwall.

On Thursday, May 16, the team finished up their season with a 10-5 loss against St. Joseph’s of Cornwall, and a 26-5 loss to Vankleek Hill. However, the latter loss was a victory of sorts in that they were the only team in the entire tournament to score against Vankleek Hill.

They later tied Cornwall Collegiate 5-5 and defeated Tagwi Secondary School 10-5.

Don’t be a ‘drag’ come out and support Interval House at Perth fundraiser June 14

By ASHLEY KULP akulp@perfprint.ca

EMC Entertainment – Divas Barbra Streisand and Liza Minnelli sharing the stage? That’s exactly what will happen Friday, June 14 in Perth during The Gender Illusions Seven Year Itch Tour to benefit Lanark County Interval House (LCIH).

Farrell Hall will be the site for evening, which will feature Gender Illusions, a four-person female illusion, music and comedy troupe including performers Dynasty Starr, Hyddie Hoe, Candice Kelly and Dixie Landers.

LCIH’s fundraising coordinator, Heather Whiting, was at a local thrift store and witnessed a young man purchasing a wedding dress.

Curious, she asked him what it was for and he said he was doing a drag show.

“I asked him if his troupe would be interested in doing a show for Interval House,” she said, adding that she actually saw a Gender Illusions show a few years back and describes the show as high-energy.

“This is the most friendly, nonthreatening, fun loving group of performers you would hope to meet,” Whiting added.

Don Graham, whose alter ego is Dynasty Starr in the troupe, was only too pleased to help out. The Almonte resident said the entire group enjoys fundraising for different charities and organizations. In fact, the last time they performed in Almonte was seven years ago. He describes the show as musical theatre.

“Within 10 minutes you don’t realize that these are men. It’s larger than life,” he explained. “...The whole show is about taking you on a journey. That’s the best way to put it. And we like to get our audience involved.”

Graham, who has performed as

Toronto-area performer Candice Kelly, above, makes up one member of the female illusion music and comedy troupe, Gender Illusions, along with Almonte’s Don Graham. The group will bring their Gender Illusions Seven Year Itch Tour to Perth’s Farrell Hall Friday, June 14 to benefit Lanark County Interval House.

a female impersonator in Toronto, Montreal and Ottawa, began to do it as a way to express himself.

“It gives me a chance to go into a different world and be a different person, although I’m still me,” he said, noting that he spends hours in front of the mirror and watching footage of his favourite stars to ensure he has their mannerisms and personalities down pat.

Graham noted that often the performers fool the audience. “The best compliment I ever had after a show was when someone said they loved Barbra Streisand but her singing was off-key,” he said. “But I wasn’t singing, that was her. That’s when you know you’ve got it.”

Doors for the Gender Illusions show open at 6:30 p.m. with cocktails and music and the show gets underway at 8 p.m. Those attending can not only expect to see Streisand and Minnelli, but a host of other stars, including Bette Midler, Wynonna Judd, Cher, Reba McEntire and even Gilda Radner and Lucille Ball during the two-and-a-half hour event, which features dance, lip-synching and plenty of elaborate jewels and costumes. Whiting said the sketch comedy Gender Illusions performs makes their show “more about comedy than what you might think.” “...It’s unique, because their (Gender Illusions) philosophy is about being inclusive which fits with our philosophies, too,” she commented.

In addition to the main event, guests can exercise their creative sides with a host of different props in the LCIH charity photo booth and have the chance to participate in a 50/50 draw and receive a variety of door prizes.

Whiting said LCIH is “happy and excited to bring this event to Perth.”

“Interval House is interested in bringing more events and awareness

to the town. We counsel hundreds of women through our outreach office in Perth,” she continued. “In 2011, approximately 22 per cent of the women we work with identified as Perth residents comparable to 26 per cent from Smiths Falls and 28 per cent from Carleton Place. We want to provide opportunities for the people of Perth to participate in these efforts to end violence against women within their own community (and throughout the county.)”

Funds raised from the events will go towards LCIH’s general operations, and are likely to go to children’s programs for trips.

“Our public education programs is entirely funded through donations from the public,” Whiting explained.

“So public education talks and printed materials, youth outreach and conferences are other activities that this fundraiser will help us to run.”

For those who have never seen a drag show before and are curious, Graham said people need to see it.

“You really do need to see it for yourself. There’s so much in the show. It’s good, naughty, clean fun,” he remarked.

‘Deathtrap’ a thriller that cuts like a knife EMC Entertainment – Ira Levin’s iconic and deliciously twisted thriller, ‘Deathtrap,’ ran for more than 1,800 performances on Broadway, starting in 1978, and 35 years later, it still cuts like a knife, as intense and satisfyingly tricky as it was when it was written.

Perth’s BarnDoor Productions is putting a razor’s edge on their production of the classic thriller – not a “whodunit” but a “who’ll do what.”

The show, which opens June 14, has the makings of one of BarnDoor’s best productions ever, following hard on the heels of shows like last season’s ‘Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?’, the hard-hitting drama which drew audience comments like “one of the best community theatre productions I’ve seen” and this season’s ‘Arms And The Man’ which was called “a classic brought to vibrant life.”

‘Deathtrap’ aspires to be the perfect two-act thriller, as its own main character boasts at the outset. It has, he says, “One set, five characters, a juicy murder in the first act, plenty of twists in

the second and laughs in all the right places.”

Levin’s brilliantly crafted script twists and turns its audience from the first line to last, letting them think they know what’s happening and then pulling the rug out from under their expectations. It’s a rollercoaster of a play that goes from comfortable chuckles to screams of fright at the twist of a phrase… or a knife.

The five-person cast, which is part of what makes it a perfect thriller, is led by some of the area’s strongest community performers: David Bird as Sidney Bruhl, a possibly washedup playwright who might just kill to have one more hit; Kristy Angel as Myra Bruhl, who is half-hoping her husband will do it; Chris Angel as Clifford, a young would-be playwright who may have provided Sidney with the motive for murder; and Janice Jacklin as Helga Ten Dorp, a Dutch psychic who keeps popping in at the worst possible moments. With a collective resume of a few hundred productions, the company brings experience

and BarnDoor’s trademark highenergy to a classic script.

In ‘Deathtrap’, playwright Ira Levin has taken the basic components of thrillers and horror stories – murder, deceit, innocent dialogue with hidden sinister meanings, plot reversals, unexpected turns of events – and twisted and rearranged the pieces again and again. But even with Helga Ten Dorp’s psychic predictions, it takes a fast-thinking playgoer to see what’s coming next. The plot is like pure quicksilver – each time you think you have it, it slips through your fingers. It’s only at the very end, as the lights go down for the final time, that the audience can say: “Oh, I get it, now!”

‘Deathtrap’ runs June 14, 15, 20, 21, 22 at 8 p.m. and June 16 and 23 at 2 p.m. at the Full Circle Theatre, 26 Craig St., Perth, near Last Duel Park. Tickets are available by calling 613-2671884 or going to www.barndoorproductions.ca. No credit cards are required; cash at the door is requested.

matter because all that matters is that Letty is alive.

The call goes out and Roman (Tyrese Gibson), Tej (Ludacris), Han (Sung Kang), and Gisele (Gal Gadot) answer.

Hobbs promises the team pardons if they can track down and stop Shaw, but this isn’t going to be like Rio. This is going to be war.

The Fast and the Furious 6 does not disappoint. The cars are fast, the cast is slick, the action is intense, the racing is unreal, and the stunts are unbelievable.

And by unbelievable I mean the stuff they pull in this film could only happen in a Hollywood blockbuster. Not that you aren’t willing to throw realism right out the window because everything is just that cool.

While this franchise has always been about looking good it still manages to incorporate just enough story, charac-

Help for bereaved during plateau period EMC Lifestyle – As we start our journey through the grieving process, we are preoccupied with details including planning a funeral, paying bills, appointments with banks and lawyers, and starting to close the estate.

Sometimes our home feels like a revolving door with people coming and going. Then family and friends go back to their regular routine and things calm down. This is when we truly realize that our loved one is gone.

While this time has many names, we call it “the plateau.” In February, the bereavement support team at Community Home Support – Lanark County conducted a survey asking people what helped them get through the plateau period and what they learned about themselves in the process. Here’s a summary of what our bereaved clients told us.

What helped you get through the plateau period?

1. Having information about the bereavement process ahead of time.

2. Staying in the present, putting one foot in front of the other.

3. Accepting the grief feelings and allowing myself to cry.

4. Getting together with good friends and family.

5. Having a routine and getting out of the house every day.

6. Recalling fond memories of my loved one.

7. Remembering to breathe.

8. Being with people who had been through similar losses.

9. People who don’t expect me to put on a happy face.

10. Smiles from others and allowing myself to laugh.

11. Spending time with my ‘well’ friends.

12. People and pets who needed me.

13. People doing all kinds of extra

things for me without being asked.

14. Letting people help with chores I could not face.

15. Making plans for the future.

16. Holding on to things that belonged to the deceased person and wearing their articles of clothing.

17. Participating in a bereavement support group and/or seeing a counsellor.

18. Doing something for someone else who is lonely.

19. Reading the cards and notes I received from friends and relatives.

20. Exercise, good food, enough sleep.

21. Finding a creative outlet.

22. Continuing to talk about the person who died.

23. Learning to recognize depression.

24. Learning to be okay with walking on shifting sand.

EMC Entertainment - It’s impressive how we went from illegal street racing to saving the world from international terrorists. None-the-less each film in the Fast and the Furious franchise has become bigger and better, and this one is the biggest yet.

Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) has been chasing a gang of highly trained and skilled drivers across four continents.

They’re led by a man named Shaw (Luke Evans), and they’ve been stealing the kind of hardware that makes countries worried. Hobbs has tracked them to London, but he can’t take them on his own so he turns to the one man who can help him: Dominic Torretto (Vin Diesel).

Dom and Brian (Paul Walker) have given up the life, but when Hobbs shows Dom a picture of Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) alive everything changes. They don’t know how or why, and it doesn’t

My Take MARK HASKINS

ter development, humour and drama to make it all work. To be sure, this film is largely a lot of mind-blowing scenes all strung together, but they are strung together by a decent story.

The Fast and the Furious 6 has a big cast, and each actor is a larger-than-life kind of figure. You expect the film to focus on two or three of the main actors, which it does, but it still makes sure everyone gets their moment. There’s a real sense of balance in the cast and in the story that makes the film that much better.

Of course with a cast this good you’d be a fool to ignore anyone. It’s the kind of cast where everyone just clicks, and everyone is working to make each other look good. Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, Sung Kang, Gal Gadot, Jordana Brewster, Gina Carano and Luke Evans are so good you hope they never stop making these films.

The Fast and the Furious 6 is just as good as the first one, and I can’t wait for seven.

Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature of the EMC.

What did you learn about yourself?

1. I knew a lot more than I thought.

2. Feelings can be different day-today and I learned to ride the wave.

3. I am stronger emotionally than I thought I was.

4. I am not afraid to stay alone.

5. I was able to build a new life that had meaning, 6. I have become more empathetic and understanding.

7. To value each day and try to make it a good one.

8. I could in fact survive alone.

9. The importance of friends.

10. Life constantly calls us back and grieving is a long process with many stages.

11. Being an orphan is scary and lonely.

12. There is no love like that of a parent. It is unconditional and forgiving.

1963 Pontiac Parisienne bought and sold for $200 EMC Lifestyle - Peter Poff writes from Haley Station in eastern Ontario: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This year is the 50th anniversary of my first car, a 1963 Pontiac Parisienne 4-door hardtop. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was May 8, 1974. I had returned home to Pembroke from Sudbury, after completing my first year at Laurentian University. I would soon head for North Bay for another summer with Bell Canada and needed wheels! My dad agreed to help. We bought a nice maroon Pontiac from an older gentleman in Cobden, making me the proud owner of a 1963 Pontiac Parisienne 4-door hardtop. It had six cylinders with 230 cubic inches and 140 horsepower mated to a 2-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. The purchase price was $200. I still have the original handwritten bill of sale and the Ontario PST receipt for $14.â&#x20AC;?

Peter made frequent trips home to Pembroke from North Bay in the summer and home from Sudbury during school.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a sports car but it was sporty with all the chrome and chrome â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;spearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; that ran from the front to the front doors.

The big trunk and back seat often accommodated passengers who rode home with me from university.â&#x20AC;?

It only let him down once when a rear bearing gave up on a trip home from North Bay. A quick tow to Petawawa and $75 later, he was on his way again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I drove it everywhere, including several trips to Toronto. One day on Lakeshore Drive while heading to the CNE, I got stuck in traffic. The engine was coated with oil from years of minor leaks, and as we inched along, the engine got hot and started to smoke. Someone in another car yelled â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;HEY SMOKEY!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; I edged over to the curb and parked on some grass. I got a ticket but she started

and ran fine on the way home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My Pontiac always started, even in the coldest weather. A shot of Quickstart into the carb and she fired right up. It only got broken into once and I lost my dash 8 track player and a bunch of tapes.

I sold the car in 1976 for $200, my original purchase price. I bought it with just over 50,000 miles and sold it with over 100,000 miles. It was a great car. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m tempted to buy another one. Does anyone have one? I think I could scare up $200 again!â&#x20AC;?

Nineteen-seventy-six (the year Peter sold his Pontiac) was also the 50th anniversary of Pontiac. The first Pontiacs rolled off GM assembly lines in 1926, and all of them had six cylinder engines.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m always looking for more stories.

2. Buy a Calendar or Datebook Once you determine your wedding date, set specific dates by which you want to get things accomplished. For example, you got engaged in June, and your wedding date is April 24. On August 31, mark in that you want to have the ceremony location and reception hall reserved.

3. Set Aside Time Choose a day of the week when

youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll focus on the wedding details, or several days if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pressed for time. Sit down together and plan thus eliminating any confusion 4. Share Duties This is the best way to get things done. You both should be involved every step of the way. Make a list of details to be taken care of, then divide the list in half. Each of you choose what you want to do. This will make grooms want to be involved.

5. Talk, Talk, Talk We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stress this enough. Be sure that if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sharing duties that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re also sharing the details.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s okay to take care of certain things by yourself, just make sure youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re telling each other about it!

6. Be Flexible

Okay. So you really didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want the groom/ushers in those tails and top hats. And maybe he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want the cake to be lemon with pecan icing (!). Each of you is going to want things that the other doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care for, but flexibility is a must. Be willing to bend. If you really object to something, let your objection be duly heard and noted.

Just give the other person a chance to explain.

7. Details, Contracts, and Negotiations When dealing with wedding professionals (caterers, florists, etc.), be sure to clarify all the details and your expectations during the initial discussions. Make sure you get a contract specifically stating dates, times, and locations. Be sure to include what you feel is appropriate

dress, and what you feel isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. Spell out everything. Try to negotiate the best deal for goods and services, but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sell yourself short on important things just to get a better price.

Most importantly, be sure to read the fine print on every contract before you sign it, and make sure youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re aware of cancellation policies and fees.

8. Stay Organized This oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty obvious! The more organized you are, the less chance there is that something will go wrong. Buy a notebook, and keep all your wedding information in it. Receipts, contracts, ideas -- everything. You might also want to get notebooks for your maid of honor/bridesmaids and the best man. Put info such as dates, times, locations, and duties.

5 Must-Know Tips to Registering for Your Wedding Everyone talks about how stressful wedding planning can be and the top topics tend to include guest list dilemmas, budgeting and even drama with mom. But registering can prove stressful too! In fact, 3/4 of brides-to-be find the process overwhelming.

You would think that registering would be fun because it’s kind of like the ultimate shopping spree, but when you actually are standing in the store with a scanner in your hand, you realize there’s a lot to think about.

1. Start early We recommend starting your registry six months in advance

so that friends and family can buy the gifts you really want for engagement parties, showers and the wedding!

2. Create a plan Discuss and decide the items you and your fiancé really want for your home before starting the process. Note what you already have since you’ll likely be consolidating your items.

3. Think quality Do your research to ensure you are registering for long-lasting, durable products.

4. Don’t forget the necessities It might seem boring, but you’re going to need daily kitchen tools beyond the more popular

mixers and blenders. Don’t overlook the obvious basics you’ll need!

5. Have fun!

Enjoy the process! While traditional registries are most popular (93% of couples register at national/regional retailers), honeymoon registries

continue to grow in popularity, up to 13% in 2012 compared to 11% in 2010. Charity registries are another great consideration. http://blog.theknot. com/2013/05/22/5-must-knowtips-to-registering-for-your-wedding/

Bridesmaids: Ways Bridesmaids Can Help the Bride There’s something to be said for going above and beyond. Here are 10 nifty ways to give the bride 110 percent.

There’s more to being a bridesmaid than parading down the aisle in pink taffeta. Celebrate your friend and her groom by helping her out and adding some extra fun to this often stressful, but very special time. Here are some of our best ideas, to inspire you to go above and beyond your bridesmaid duties.

Take responsibility for the gift baskets or bags for out-of-town guests’ hotel rooms. Include a welcome letter, maps, relevant phone numbers, snacks, postcards, city souvenirs, and suggestions for fun activities.

Ask the bride when she expects the wedding invitations to be ready and plan an in- bring something to eat, turn on the stereo, stuffing envelopes, and putting on stamps. formal gathering. Ask each bridesmaid to and divide the duties of writing addresses, Not only will you have fun, but you’ll also

be helping the bride finish a very tedious job!

Offer to supply wedding favors or escort cards for the rehearsal dinner. If it’s a more casual affair, offer to make simple centerpieces.

Ward off pre-wedding jitters by creating a distraction -- get tickets to a play or dance performance, one that you know she’d be dying to see if she weren’t so busy planning the wedding.

Ask what she’s drinking at the reception and keep her cup full. Brides seldom make it through the crowd to the bar (just be sure her cup doesn’t run over).

Collect disposable reception-table cameras at the end of the night and get them developed.

Offer to be the end-of-the-party, final once-over girl -- collect the cake topper

Take her gown to the cleaners after the wedding. Get her gown preserved for when she returns from the honeymoon.

Pack a honeymoon “in case you forget” bag: Include a disposable camera, sunscreen, sunglasses, moisturizer, saline, and other toiletries a harried bride might forget to pack.

Make grand plans. Follow your dreams.

Take some chances.

Your love will see you through it all.

With every step you take together, your love grows in strength and beauty.

I have created wedding floral arrangements for the most varied venues, from the elaborate to the simple, from ceremonies held at the Chateau Laurier to big tent, to rustic rural church, to simple back yard; from upscale restaurant to country club resort; church and synagogue; dinner party and dinner theatre.

I can create stylish arrangements of exotic flowers from around the world or simple posies of wild flowers (in season) gathered from my own back field. I don’t work with silk or fabric flowers, but did once make dried flower bouquets for a medieval themed wedding (which everyone thought turned out very effectively, and quite unique).

If we decide to work together on a project you will have my undivided attention: I will take on only one project at a time and I will work with you every step of the way, from planning to execution.

So, if you have an event coming up, call or email me and we will set up a meeting at your convenience at a location of yyour choosing. g Please allow me at least six weeks before the event Dirk so that I can ensure the The Flower Man availability of your floral requirements and place my Weddings Partie s Receptions orders.

Is choosing a honeymoon spot making you dizzy? There are a number of ways to narrow down your choices, depending on whether beautiful weather, cost, or sightseeing is your first priority.

Great weather and optimal sightseeing opportunities -- as well as high room rates and more crowds (reserve early!)

-- often go hand in hand during a destination’s high season. (Low season is when seasonal businesses -- restaurants and island ferries, for example -- shut down and attractions may close for renovations.)

If high season perks are what you seek for your once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon, we’ll tell you where to go to find the best weather or, if you have your heart set on a specific place, what to expect during that month.

A destination’s high -- or busy -- season usually coincides with an area’s best weather, but it can also determined solely by demand. High season in Hawaii and the Caribbean, where the weather doesn’t change that dramatically, runs from January to April simply because people from colder climes flock to their sunny beaches to flee the winter chill.

Conversely, Disney World is packed in the summer despite the searing heat because kids are out of school.

Weather by Date Remember that this is a guide to when different destinations traditionally experience the most ideal weather of the year. The months immediately preceding and succeeding a destination’s prime time are often called “shoulder” seasons, and usually have good weather as well.

Other destinations, such as the Caribbean and Hawaii, are temperate yearround, but particularly incredible at the times listed below.

Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just your folks, you guys alone, or a combination, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll want to know all the pros and cons of who pays for the wedding. Keep in mind that a combination of two or more may be how you end up getting your wedding paid for.

The Brideâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Parents Pay The traditional -- and still pretty popular -- way of paying for the wedding.

If everyone is contributing, pool all the money upfront and then see what your bottom line is. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s much easier than saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;mom takes care of the gown and the flowers, we take care of the rest.

The Pros: You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to dip into your nest egg to pay for the wedding, which means youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably be driving a better car, buying a better house and taking better vacations a year from now than your contemporaries who are paying -- in full or partially -- for their own wedding.

The Cons: The person who pays ultimately gets what they want. Which means that if you want 100 guests but your parents want 250, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably end up with at least 175 to 200 people at your wedding.

Having your parents pay for the wedding doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurt your wallet, but you have to be willing to compromise on what the wedding will be like. Another downside: Having your parents pay for the wedding -- especially if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re retired, on a fixed income, or just not that well off to begin with -- could strap them down with some major debt.

Everyone Pays A contemporary and effective way of taking care of wedding expenses is for the two of you, the brideâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family, and the groomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family to split the expenses.

It works best, if you simply take the whole cost of the wedding and divide it three ways, rather than dole out specific things to pay for: For example, if you let your parents pay for the dinner, then they may be inclined to invite more guests. It can get sticky. If you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t divide it equally -- say one party is more

Writing my own happy ending with CHEO’s help

By Vienna Arbic with Isabelle Mailloux Pulkinghorn

My name is Vienna and I am nine years old. I’m in grade three, play defense on my hockey team, and enjoy doing crafts and writing stories. I love spending time with my parents Sherry and Richard Arbic, and my friends. And I have cancer.

My ‘real’ life had to be put on hold while the doctors at CHEO help me get rid of cancer. Mine is called Germ cell tumor, a very rare form of brain cancer - and I want it to go away.

If this were a story I came up with, there wouldn’t be a port-a-cath, operations and chemotherapy

involved. I wouldn’t need lumbar punctures and I could be home with my parents and my dogs instead of in the hospital. I’d be playing hockey and graduating grade three with everyone in my class. If this were a story I made up, it’d be funny like the Robert Munsch books that I love so much.

But cancer is serious.

they knew something was wrong with me, had it not been for the concussion itself and for the team of CHEO neurologists, endocrinologists and oncologists who care for me, my story could have had a sad ending.

One day at hockey practice I hurt my head and ended up with a concussion. I had all the classic symptoms, and even after the prescribed rest period I was not getting better. I was sleeping 18 hours a day, falling asleep at school and again later in the afternoon. I had severe headaches that even the pain medicine would not relieve. I had no short-term memory and my parents say I just wasn’t myself.

But now, there’s hope.

Chemotherapy is not fun - it actually makes me very sick. I lost my hair and I look very different because of the cortisone, but it is helping me get better. It is shrinking the size of my tumor, and that is great news! Once the last cycle of chemotherapy _QTT JM Å VQ[PML _M¼TT [\IZ\ ZILQI\QWV \PMZIXa \W PMTX reduce the tumor even more and hopefully make it So my parents took me to CHEO. An go away forever. I hope we’re done by the end of endocrinologist ordered a CT scan and it detected the summer so I can start my hockey season and go a tumor in the center of my brain that was pressing back to school.

I also want to keep In my case, we quickly started with chemotherapy. writing, so maybe I’ll become a doctor-writer. But Had it not been for my parents’ persistence to one thing is certain: my stories will always have push for physicians to investigate further because happy endings. Just like this one will.
