News -Councillors are looking for feedback from residents to a staff proposal to limit the amount of time property owners can park their recreational vehicles on their lawns. A public meeting was held Sept. 8 to discuss a series of wording changes and amendments to various bylaws in town. Niki McKernan, planner, explained because the changes are comprehensive in nature, meaning they affect all residential homes in the town, so there was no requirement under the Planning Act to notify all residents. The town did send notification out to some organizations with no concerns received. Residents like councillors Jay Brennan and Chris Cummings became staff’s first two complaints from taxpayers on the proposed changes. “We’re going to get some concern about that,” Brennan said. He is referring to a new time limit proposed for parking recreational vehicles and trailers on your property. If council accepts the amendment, residents will be allowed to have one recreational vehicle on their property, including trailers, so long as they are no longer than 8.5 metres. For those longer than that there is a time limit of three days. Brennan noted a senior snowbird couple in town who park their Winnebago on their property in the warm weather and use it to travel down south
in the winter as one example of someone who will be impacted by these proposed changes. Another resident who was sitting right across from the horseshoe voiced his concerns this week. Coun. Cummings challenged the amendments, saying he has a Sea-doo, trailer and utility trailer on his property and was told by staff that two of those must be removed if the bylaw amendment is approved. “Otherwise it gets a little excessive,” McKernan said. Cummings disagreed, saying: “I don’t think I’m unusual. I think that’s excessive to say that you can’t.” Under the proposed bylaw amendment Cummings and others like him would have to build a garage to house the additional item and go through the building process. Mayor Dennis Staples thanked staff for bringing this forward, adding he anticipates the town will hear from residents on this proposal in the coming weeks. “This will make it a bit more real,” the mayor said. Other changes • The public meeting touched on a couple of other amendment recommendations. The bylaw clause that addresses yard setback and height encroachment was changed to include the word “functional” accessory structures. This will include allowances for vents, air condition units, sump pumps, porches and a balcony that would exist outside of the main structure.

• Wording around the definition of a group home was cleaned up following a recommendation from the town’s legal counsel. They have removed the wording of a licenced group home, the limit of maximum total residents and the requirement for a separation distance between group homes. “Perfect,” Staples said. The town recently amended their bylaw after they and two other communities were named in a Human Rights Tribunal suit. The changes made this summer effectively closed this suit for Smiths Falls. • Finally, wording around temporary residences on residential properties was clarified to limit their use for no more than three months provided the property is zoned residential as its primary use. Further to this, temporary residences like mobile homes are only allowed on residential properties if the primary residence is uninhabitable due to fire or flood, etc. Staff are also recommending the bylaw states residents can no longer live in their RV, street car, unlicenced vehicle or boat in the town. “Technically, you could live in it,” McKernan said of boats under the current bylaw. All of these items will return to a future committee-of-the-whole meeting for further discussion. Council is encouraging residents who may be impacted by the changes to provide their comments via email, mailed letter or formal delegation.

News – Hundreds of paramedics from across Ontario will band together to honour their fallen colleagues in the second annual Paramedic Ride Sept. 19 to 22. Along with 75 to 80 emergency responders from Toronto, Ottawa, Renfrew, Leeds and Grenville, Hastings Quinte, Lennox and Addington and Peel Region, the Lanark County Paramedic Service will be participating for the first time this year. The four-day cycling tour kicks off from Toronto on Sept. 19, making its way through Port Hope, Kingston, Brockville and Ottawa (city hall) on a 525-kilometre ride, which seeks to raise funds for a national paramedic memorial monument in Ottawa to honour fallen paramedics. According to Lanark County paramedic Dale McCabe, local emergency responders have co-ordinated a special ceremony to honour fallen colleague Matt Popplewell, who died earlier this summer. On Sept. 22, between 9:30 and 10 a.m., the ride will briefly make a pit stop in Merrickville’s Blockhouse Park to remember Popplewell. “Matt’s wife (also a paramedic) and kids will be there and riders will be
presenting her with a ceremonial riding jersey,” McCabe explained, adding that the Lanark County Paramedic Service’s union, CUPE 4480, will sponsor the stop. Energy bars and Gatorade will also be given to riders so they can refuel. He said that paramedic Darryl Fleming has lent much of his time to plan the Sept. 22 event. The paramedic service will be providing an ambulance for use in Merrickville and McCabe said “once the ceremony for our fallen comrade at the Blockhouse Park is complete, that ambulance will join the ride as an escort for the cyclists into Ottawa where the closing ceremony will take place at city hall.” As an added touch, each rider on the tour will sport a black armband with
Popplewell’s name. Since 1983, 36 Canadian paramedics have lost their lives in the line of duty. McCabe said it’s important to honour the sacrifices made by emergency responders. “We are raising money to erect a permanent memorial in Ottawa for paramedics. There’s one for police, one for fire and there’s going to be one for paramedics,” he stated. McCabe hopes more local paramedics will participate in the ride next year and is working to switch the route up so there’s a dedicated rest stop in the area. The Paramedic Ride is not a race, but instead an event to embrace the spirit of being a paramedic. Through every step of the ride, cyclists will be escorted by ambulances.

Community – After pulling off more than 100 events in its near ďŹ ve-year history at their sprawling Beckwith property, StoneďŹ elds Heritage Farm is giving back to the community through a free fundraiser Thursday, Sept. 18. That evening, StoneďŹ elds owners Stephanie Brown and Steve Malenfant, will open up their grounds and offer up the vendors they work with, to host ‘A Seriously Fun Affair: A Country Chic Gala for Alzheimer’s’ to beneďŹ t the Alzheimer’s Society of Ottawa and Renfrew County. The pair had always toyed with the idea of creating a charity event, but earlier this summer decided to put a new twist on it and have people pitch fundraising ideas to them. According to Brown, it provided an even playing ďŹ eld for all charities to participate. “We had one goal in mind: To offer a free event that would encompass everything needed to host an event with a sole purpose of raising funds for a charity in need,â€? she explained. “For us, we’ve always wanted to give back and over the last couple of years we’ve had a free wedding giveaway to couples in need, which is great, but we always wanted to get involved in working with a charity, but we didn’t know where to start,â€? Brown continued. Submissions were welcomed for a month, each being put into a draw, with the lucky winner being professional event planner Ian Garland, owner of Wilson Young Events, who made a pitch to develop a fundraiser for the Alzheimer’s Society of Ottawa and Renfrew County. “We read every story and all we wanted to do was give,
5:15 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. marks the start of cocktail hour. At 6:15 p.m., the evening’s surprise emcee is set to welcome everyone to the event and the food stations will open at 6:30 p.m. Brown said there won’t be an actual sit-down meal, but tasting areas will be set up on the grounds in order for guests to mingle. The Absolute Comedy show appears at 6:45 p.m., the live auction gets underway at 7:15 p.m. and guests will be treated to dessert at 7:30 p.m., when AMBUSH begins their ďŹ rst set. Comedians take the stage again at 8:15 p.m. followed by AMBUSH’s second set at 8:45 p.m. A shuttle buses from Renfrew (4 p.m. at Canadian Tire), Arnprior (4:30 p.m. at the Prior Sports Bar), and Ottawa (4:30 p.m. from the IKEA parking lot) will be made available to visitors. The ďŹ nal shuttle will leave StoneďŹ elds for the evening at 10:15 p.m. Tickets for the country chic gala are $115 per person (return transport from Ottawa, Arnprior or Renfrew is $20 extra) or $165 for a patron ticket (return transport from Ottawa, Arnprior and Renfrew is included as well as a free cocktail). All tickets must be purchased in advance and none will be available at the door. Those who can’t attend the evening are invited to make a donation to the Alzheimer’s Society by visiting the above website. “We hope we can make it an annual giveaway if our partners are in for it...We hope people come out to support a great cause and have an awesome night,â€? Brown concluded. StoneďŹ elds Heritage Farm is located at 1985 9th Line in Beckwith. For more information about them, visit www. stoneďŹ eldsheritagefarm.ca.

give, give. Every one was amazing and we were touched by every story,â€? Brown said, noting Garland’s entry spoke about his 94-year-old mother Betty’s seven-year ďŹ ght with Alzheimer’s. “We were literally in tears every time we read a story.â€? Valued at $30,000, the prize package allows Garland exclusive use of StoneďŹ elds, including staff and services, as well as the opportunity to work with their partners, including: Thyme & Again Creative Catering, Temples + Taste Catering and The Mixing Bowl (food and serving staff); Quality Entertainment (music and sound equipment); Mastermind Event Rentals (linens); Prior Engagements (dishware); and owers by Mill Street Florist. The organizers are responsible for planning and selling tickets for the event. “Someone needed to be able to organize the event as we are just providing the venue and services,â€? Brown said. “Everything is free...it’s all there for them to use.â€? “No one here is taking a cut. This is all being done free of charge,â€? she added. Garland is pulling out all the stops with his gala, which will be headlined by Ottawa Valley party band AMBUSH, feature comedians, live and silent auctions, as well as lawn games throughout the lush grounds of StoneďŹ elds. “The evening is full of colourful and fun activities,â€? she noted. Festivities get underway at 5 p.m. with appetizers and refreshments, as well as the start of a Texas Hold ‘Em game and lawn games. Guests are encouraged to bring their personal Alzheimer’s story or make a wish at the vintage wishing well. Step dancer Pauline Brown and her troupe will entertain the crowd at

Ex-worker claims to know real reason fair midways cancelled Derek Dunn

News – Scott Gibb feels like he was taken for a ride by his former midway employer and the provincial Ministry of Labour. He worked three unpaid weeks with Billy G Amusements last March, and the ministry still hasn’t wrestled his money from the owner. The company is the same that made headlines this past summer when it failed to show up at fairs in Arnprior, Almonte, Chesterville, Maxville and Lombardy. At that time it was widely reported by many Ottawa media outlets that owner Billy Gordon was frustrated with the federal government’s foreign work program. He blamed red tape and increased costs for his woes. Gibb believes there is more to the story. “The real reason Billy can not get workers isn’t because of the foreign workers program, it is simply because he refuses to pay his workers,” he said. “He has a bad reputation for not paying his workers and I saw it first hand.” After the third week of not getting paid, Gibb – who also used to hire for competitor Conklin Shows – lodged a complaint to the ministry. It found both he and his girlfriend were owned $2,500 and $1,800 respectively. After it became apparent Billy G Amusements still wouldn’t pay, the ministry issued a
File photo
Billy G Amusements left five fairs in the Ottawa region scrambling to find new midway providers this summer. The owner blamed the federal foreign workers’ program. A former employee blames a “bad reputation for not paying his workers.” “director’s order to pay.” Almost a half year later and still nothing. “If I hadn’t called them all the time I would have fallen through the cracks
a long time ago,” Gibb said. “It’s like: They’re just a bunch of carnies. And they keep giving him chance after chance.” Gibb said he has had to move into his parents’ Toronto basement and take out
loans because of the income loss. He also feels guilty for encouraging three more friends to join up with Bramptonbased Billy G. They and the other five or six on the crew were not paid either, Gibb said. Spokesman William Lin would not explain why the ministry doesn’t publicize whether or not an employer pays up. He did say there are other means to obtain Gibb and his girlfriend’s money. Lin also confirmed that Billy G broke several employment standards. He paid minimum wage to have workers stand on a ride for up to 12 hours with as little as a 15-minute break for lunch. He also charged for accommodations. “He would charge you $25 a day to stay in something that was filthy and was something we wouldn’t put a prisoner in,” Gibb said. “One-hundred and fifty dollars for 10 hours Friday, 12 hours Saturday and Sunday, with teardown that can last onwards of 14 or 15 hours. Tell me how that is fair.” Jeff Desarmia didn’t know about the labour issues and wouldn’t comment on them. The Arnprior Fair president is still reeling from having to scramble for a new midway provider, and won’t go back to Billy G. He plans to meet with the other four fairs left hanging by the company. Desarmia wants the group to chastise the Ontario Association of Agricultural Societies (OAAS). “The OAAS is endorsing this midway provider,” he said. “Some of the
blame has to go on the OAAS.” Not only does the representative organization collect fees from fairs across the province, it hosts a major convention every winter at the Fairmount Royal York. Fair board members come from near and far to hear pitches on everything from new cotton candy suppliers to midway providers such as Billy G. So will Gordon’s business be invited to the 2015 convention? The OAAS president indicated that it will not. “We are organizing (the convention) now,” said Sylvia Parr. “Yes, we are aware of what is happening with Billy G.” Parr was unaware of Gordon’s troubles with the Ministry of Labour. She insists her board will discuss the situation, but is wary of discussing details considering he still has contracts with other fairs, including her hometown’s. Last week she was hopeful he would show. As for Gibb, who continues to struggle financially and with a loss of faith in both an employer and a government ministry, he is keeping up the good fight. Asked why he doesn’t simply bite the bullet and call it a lesson learned, Gibb was firm. “It’s not a bullet I can bite. It’s really put me in a hole,” he said. “This man is a crook and I will be the one to stand up to him and bring this to attention.” Repeated calls to Billy Gordon were not returned.

Pike Falls Classic partners with Big Brothers Big Sisters to send local kids camping Community – Pike Falls Classic came through for the kids again this summer. Thanks to their past efforts in fundraising, they were able to send another 20 children to summer camps through their established endowment fund. Pike Falls Classic partners with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County to choose the children to attend week-long sleep over camps of their choice. Eastern Ontario boasts a wide range of summer camps for children, including Camp Lauren, Rideau Hill, Circle Square Ranch and many others. Camp staff just about everywhere and adults raised with the camping experience will tell you summer camp isn’t only about recreation. More than anything, they say camp teaches individuals about life and how to live it well. It’s a unique place to learn independence, self-confidence and responsibility. More than anything else, they have fun and can just be a kid. Over the years, more than 454 children have had a week-long overnight adventure thanks to the dedicated work of the local group. Historically, Pike Falls Classic volunteers have held bike raffles, toy runs and bike shows, all to create the Lanark County Camp Fund, which ensures that every child in the Big Brothers Big Sisters programs who wants to go to camp gets to go.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Column brings back memories of childhood in UK for reader DEAR EDITOR: I enjoyed Jeff Maguire’s recent column about UK piers. I live in Merrickville now but I’m originally from Brighton and my parents retired to Eastbourne. I fondly remember the Brighton West Pier and regret that it could not be saved. In the sixties it was used to film part of the movie, Oh What a Lovely War, with many famous actors – and my cousin as an extra. In 1973 a tethered barge badly damaged the Palace Pier structure in a
storm but it was repaired. The pier is a backdrop to many family beach photos and we used to swim by the pier lights at night – a magic experience for a child. As a teen it was a meeting place with friends but we couldn’t wear “high heels” as the heels got stuck between the boards. Marion G. Fuller Merrickville
COMMENTARY
Let the races begin Editorial – Anyone who has been thinking of running for a position on a municipal council or school board in Ontario is probably aware that the deadline for nominations is this Friday, Sept. 12 at 2 p.m. A few interesting races have already emerged in Lanark County: two longtime councillors are vying for the mayor’s job against the incumbents in Carleton Place and Mississippi Mills and Smiths Falls will look quite different with the absence of Dennis Staples. Although some prospective candidates might find the fouryear term to be a longer commitment than they’d like, some council members and school trustees will acknowledge that it took much or all of the term to learn the ropes and to become comfortable in their respective positions. To suggest that the four years will fly by might be a bit of an overstatement, but the length of the term is not as onerous as one would expect. We believe that most people who run for public office at the local level are sincere in their desire to serve the community in which they live or work. The job doesn’t pay that well and there aren’t many thank-yous along the way, but we’d like to think that’s not why you wanted to run in the first place. As long as you are eligible to run and have $200 for mayor/reeve or $100 for the “lower” positions then you can take a shot at serving on a municipal council. But remember, the deadline is Friday at 2 p.m.

Ronny promised if we let him wander the hall, he would not leave the building. Audrey was too engrossed in the needlework to argue. We must have spent a good hour before we realized Ronny was nowhere to be found. We skirted the displays several times, to no avail. Perhaps he had gone out to the ticket gate. Everett, being the oldest, was dispatched immediately. When he got back, Mother was stern faced and walking quickly beside him. Ronny was not with them. We were ordered to fan out like a search party looking for someone lost in the bush. We started to get panicky when we saw the fair board beginning to dismantle the displays in the hall.

quilts and putting the baking in large baskets. Audrey and I were posted at the door just in case he had wandered out and would come back to look for us. The hall was emptying out of people. Mother’s look of anger was quickly turning to a look of panic. As was usual for me, when I got scared or distressed, I started to cry, which led my sister Audrey to repeat one of my father’s favourite observations: “Mary your bladder must be awfully close to your eyes.” We had been looking for Ronny for an hour. I was convinced he had been hauled off by one of the carnival workers, which made me cry all the louder. The hall was almost stripped. Everyone but the workers had gone home. All that was left were the grain displays and the tall stalks of corn tied into bundles and standing along one wall. A few farmers were moving into position to take away even those last remnants of the Renfrew Fair. “NO,” they said, they hadn’t seen a young boy with blonde hair who looked like he was lost. Mother thought she should go and look for the police.

thought that might be a good idea, as he moved over to the tall stalks of corn. He lifted the first two bundles and tossed them on his shoulders. His tall lanky son reached for the third. When he lifted it from the wall, there was Ronny sitting behind the corn stalks looking out at us with sheer delight and devilment written all over his face. Mother was so mad she swung her purse at him and caught the farmer square on the side of his head. He recovered quickly, and made a grab for the young villain. But Mother beat him to it. She grabbed Ronny by the scruff of the neck and hauled him to his feet, which never touched the floor all the way out of the building. Father was wearing his, “I told you so” look. Finally, Ronny looked Mother square in the eye and said, “I don’t know why everyone is so mad...I wasn’t lost. I knew where I was all the time.” Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

Audition time for fifth and final edition of My Town’s Got Talent tives in Lanark County, supporting the United Way’s five youth centre member agencies. “This is an excellent opportunity for the county to see what our youth member agencies do for the young people in their communities,” noted Johann Ramsaran, chair of the board of the United Way Lanark County. “All five – Carleton Place Youth Centre, Lanark Highlands Youth Centre, YAK Youth Centre in Perth, Smiths Falls and District Youth Centre, and Take Young People Seriously (TYPS) Youth Centre from Mississippi Mills – will be helping out at the auditions and the final show. At the finale, community members will have the opportunity to meet youth from each centre and learn about what their local youth centre is doing in their community.” “Once again, it’s now up to the youth of the county to come forward and sign up for the auditions,” added Bindhardt. “We have the judges getting ready – and we want to see the best in the county at the auditions.” For more details, visit www. mtgt.org for all the details, or contact the United Way at 613Submitted photo 253-9074.

Since its inception in 2010 by local youth Geoff Gourgon as Almonte’s Got Talent, and then renamed in 2011 as My Town’s Got Talent, the show has auditioned hundreds of local youth, and crowned four top performances so far. “We are looking for our final champions this year and the Gallipeau Centre Theatre is the perfect place to select the top performer, host, and designer of Lanark County,” noted Bindhardt. “If any youth were waiting to try out, then this is the mo-
ment to jump in, as we are not sure what will happen next year. We will be going all out to make the finale is a professional and fun event for everyone!” “Once again, this year’s event will feature the ability for fans to vote for their favorite act by donating online to the United Way Lanark County,” said Scantlebury. “These votes will be combined with the judges’ choices to select the five finalists, who will then perform once more for the audience, who will then vote for the winner. Audience members receive one ballot each, and when the five performances are over, we count up the votes immediately to see who wins.” It was a hard decision to make this the final year of the current version of MTGT. “We looked at the experience of the show, and the changes in talent show events over the years, and feel that there needs to be a new idea or process,” commented Scantlebury. He went on to say, “we will be talking with our partners at the youth centres in Lanark County to see if there is more new ways to approach how to reach out to talented youth in the county – so stay tuned for details in 2015.” As in previous years, the event is in support of the United Way Lanark County annual fall campaign.

Community – It’s September – time once again for My Town’s Got Talent (MTGT) auditions – where United Way Lanark County looks for the best talent in the county to showcase at the finale, presented by Metroland Media along with Town and Country Chrysler in Smiths Falls at the Gallipeau Centre Theatre on Nov. 1. Auditions for this year’s show will take place during the week of Sept. 22 to 25, with the judges stopping in Perth on Sept. 22; Smith Falls on Sept. 23; Carleton Place on Sept. 24; and Almonte in Mississippi Mills on Sept. 25, to select the 15 semi-finalists for the show. At the finale, our celebrity judges, with help through an online poll from fans in the county, will select the five finalists. Once again, the evening will feature the audience voting for the overall winner from those five finalists, with the performing winner receiving a prize package that includes donations from VIA Rail and the Fairmont Royal York Hotel of two return tickets from Smiths Falls to Toronto and two nights’ accommodation at the hotel. They join sponsors Lake 88.1, The Valley Players, L-D Tool and Die and the PerthUpon-Tay Royal Canadian Legion Branch 244 in supporting the contest. “The finale in Carleton Place last year was great,” according to artistic director Christy Bindhardt “and we had an incredible variety of talent. This year, we are once again looking for youth who dance, do poetry, drum, sing, play an instrument, do comedy, or are the best entertainer in whatever you do, to come out to our auditions. All of the details for auditioning are on our website at www.mtgt.org, where folks can also see photos of last year’s show, won by Alex Vala from Carleton Place.” This year, MTGT will feature three categories for judging: Performers, hosts and designers. “In addition to looking for performers of all types for the show,” said Bindhardt. “We also want actors, comedians, or youth who just love to talk, to try out for the host position. The five semi-finalists in this competition will each host a portion of the first part of the evening, and then the winner will host the exciting final five portion of the night!” For the design competition, budding artists will be creating a new logo for the Human Library Project, sponsored by the United Way and the five libraries in Lanark County – Perth, Mississippi Mills, Smiths Falls, Carleton Place, and Lanark Highlands. “This was an exciting new

Station Theatre kicks off 2014-15 film series Arts – The Smiths Falls Station Theatre reboots its new season of high quality films with Alfred Hitchcock’s famous Rear Window on Friday, Sept. 19, followed by The Birds on Saturday, Sept. 20. Both screenings start at 7:30 p.m. Tickets, sold at the door only, are $10 for adults, $5 for students (with ID.) Many of the theatre’s patrons know that The Station Theatre stages six live theatrical productions a year, but fewer have been aware of the Movie Night’s program. Ever since the movie theatre in Smiths Falls closed its doors, local film buffs have been at a loss to know where to go to see quality films. The good news is they never had to go far from home, as the Smiths Falls Community Theatre picked up the baton and has been showing films at The Station Theatre ever since the local cinema closed its doors. The theatre’s film selection committee has been busy over the summer testing ideas on how better to engage audiences with its movie offerings. In the end, it asked people what films they would like to see screened. To narrow the choice, it began with one of cinema’s iconic directors of all time, Alfred Hitchcock, then surveyed patrons to identify their favourite film from his impressive repertoire. The race was tight and the triumphant winner was Rear Window, beating out the runner up, The Birds, by just one vote. Recognizing the tight race, the theatre has decided to screen both great Hitchcock films for one weekend only. And as a reward to loyal patrons, those who come see Rear Window will get to come back the next night to see The Birds for half price with proof of
the ticket stub from the night before. A deal if ever there was one! Hitchcock, interviewed on the making of Rear Window, had this to say: “I was feeling very creative at the time. My batteries were well charged. I shot the film on a single set, creating a group of little stories around James Stewart’s character and his many neighbours that comprise a small universe. At the centre of this universe, closely monitoring the comings and goings of his neighbours is Stewart. Sure he’s a snooper, but aren’t we all? I bet you that nine out of ten people, if they see a woman across the courtyard undressing for bed, or even a man puttering around in his room, will stay and look; no one turns away and says It’s none of my business. They could pull down their blinds, but they never do; they stand there and look out. We are a society of voyeurs.” Very prophetic considering the world of mass media technology at our finger tips that we inhabit today. As for The Birds, Hitchcock’s observation is also compelling. “I have in my time produced many films whose major intent was to mystify and to astonish their viewers. Inasmuch as such stories often brought much pleasure, they fulfilled their requirements. This time, however, I have introduced serious purpose beneath the pleasure. There is a terrifying meaning lurking right underneath the surface shock and suspense of The Birds. When you discover it your pleasure will be more than doubled. This devastating Du Maurier story is another testimonial to the greatness of the author. It could well be the most terrifying motion picture I have ever made.” Enjoyment of these two Hitchcock classics is virtually guaranteed. The
Smiths Falls Station Theatre, located at 53 Victoria Avenue, has a 14-foot screen with a state of the art Panasonic projector system that produces a high definition picture quality with surround sound audio capable of bringing that big screen movie experience to every viewer. The unique design of the auditorium ensures that all seats are obstruction free (that’s right, no heads in front of you blocking your view) and as comfortable as an easy chair at home in a climate controlled environment. We urge everyone not to miss these rare screenings of two of Hitchcock’s greatest films. See both as they were meant to be seen: on a large screen, in a dark intimate theatre, surrounded by others, where you can feel the suspense and tension build as only Hitchcock knew how to create. For those who’ve been missing the quality and craftsmanship of how a master film director like Hitchcock made his films it’s a chance to become reacquainted with his brilliant cinematic techniques. For those who’ve never seen a Hitchcock film it will be a real treat. Hitchcock wasn’t known as the master of murder, mayhem and suspense for nothing. After all, he made murder fashionable. We invite patrons to join us in this exciting weekend film experience and to keep in touch with all our offerings – outstanding plays, movies and special events – by signing up for our e-newsletter through a visit to our web page at smithsfallstheatre.com, or by joining us on Facebook. And just a reminder: The shows start at 7:30 p.m. Tickets, sold at the door only, are $10 for adults, $5 for students (with ID.) Submitted by the Smiths Falls Community Theatre.

Nature workshops Sept 29-30 Community – Nature can make us happier, smarter and feel better? Really, it’s that simple? Yes, there is a strong connection between spending time in nature and overall health and wellbeing. Children who spend time in nature are more likely to have healthier social behaviour, improved self-esteem, resilience, ability to learn and concentrate, as well as environmental awareness and stewardship ethics. Time in nature decreases stress and anxiety, depression, diabetes, hypertension and many other health problems. We are fortunate to have many opportunities to enjoy nature in our communities – trails, outdoor classrooms, parks, gardens, lakes, rivers, horses, dogs, cats – the list is endless. The Healthy Communities Partnership: Lanark, Leeds & Grenville is pleased to offer two exciting events to highlight the importance of nature for children and families and to identify what we can do together to build nature into all aspects of our lives. Everyone is invited to one or both of the events – come and bring your family and friends! Go to www.healthyllg. org and click on events to register or email webmaster@healthunit.org for more information. The first event is a Nature for Life public presentation by Dr. Cheryl Charles on
Monday, Sept. 29 from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the Gallipeau Centre (361 Queen Street) in Smiths Falls. The cost is free and child care is available if requested on Event Brite. Sign up is only required for those seeking child care. The next day, Sept. 30, the Nature for Life Workshop – Making it Happen In Our Community, will be held with Dr. Cheryl Charles and Dr. Michael Cheng. It will also take place at the Gallipeau Centre from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Cost is $20 and registration is available on Event Brite. Dr. Cheryl Charles, PH.D., is co-founder and president of the Children & Nature Network: http:// www.childrenandnature. org/. The Children and Nature Network’s vision is ‘Together we can create a world where every child can play, learn and grow in nature.’ Charles is an innovator, entrepreneur, author, and educator who is among those instrumental in developing the worldwide movement to reconnect children and nature. Dr. Michael Cheng, a child and family psychiatrist at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO), is an author, passionate speaker and advocate of attachment to people and nature.

Arts – In the ‘60s and early ‘70s, Norris Vines was touring with The Platters until artistic differences and the commute from his home in Angus, Ontario to Los Angeles, USA got too much and he decided to work closer to home. “We wrote ballads and beautiful, clean love songs,” says Vines from his home in Angus. According to Vines the “Celebrate the Platters” show coming to the Gallipeau Centre Theatre on Sept. 20 is the perfect opportunity for couples, young and old to rekindle their romance. “My job is making people happy, after you’ve had a fight with your spouse or lover I’ll sing you a beautiful love song that will make you fall in love all over again,” says Vines, who is now well past the age most people would retire, but says he enjoys what he does too much to give it up. Vines is quick to clarify that “Celebrate the Platters” will feature a lot more than just Platters ballads. “We know that the young people today like to dance fast, we’re not just going to sing love songs, we’ll play some Motown tunes and more upbeat songs as well,” says Vines. The show and tribute band came about in response to what Vines saw as a vacuum in the world of tribute bands. “I have a personal connection with the Platters and when I saw tribute shows being done that don’t do justice to the original music, I decided it was time to create a Platters tribute band that could capture the essence of the original music, and so I’ve hand-picked this band,” says Vines. Vines has collected some of the best Canadian singers to celebrate the music of the Platters. They include Ian Jutsun, Michael Dunston and Jillian Mendez, each a phenomenal vocalist in their own right. “My mouth dropped open when I saw them the first time,” says show producer Merv Buchanan. “I couldn’t believe it, they are so accurate and so good it’s amazing that a Canadian group can nail

Lifestyle – I was watching a weather segment on television one evening last week during which the forecaster proudly announced that a warm weather trend is expected for the next three months. “Summer is going to continue,” he said, wearing an ear-to-ear smile. “Continue,” I thought. “Did we actually have summer?” The TV broadcast originated in Ottawa, just a few kilometres along the highway from where we live. “I must have missed something,” I said to myself. Ask anyone about this summer – the summer that is quickly reaching its conclusion – and I believe you will get the same answer. “What summer?” No, it hasn’t exactly been stellar. Plenty of rainfall, so the water table has been well provided for. But not nearly enough sunshine or sustained heat to suit most people. Following the bitterly cold and very snowy winter of 20132014, spring and summer in this part of Canada has been very hard to take. Admittedly I am not a huge fan of intense heat and humidity. Following last winter I vowed never to utter one word of complaint about hot and humid weather conditions this summer. And I never did complain. Of course I was aided by the summer that wasn’t. We had very little sustained, hot and sticky conditions. So unless there is a hot, humid spell ahead (an unlikely scenario at this time of year) my promise is safe. Oddly the most intense heat my wife and I experienced this year occurred during a visit to normally cool, wet Ireland in June. We only had one day of rain in 15 on our travels and the mercury climbed toward 30C most days. As I outlined in an earlier column in this newspaper, our friends and ourselves spent some uncomfortable nights in hotels that either had no air conditioning or where the cooling equipment wasn’t up to the challenge presented by an extremely rare Irish heat wave. The days were long too. Study the world map carefully and see where Ireland sits relative to southern Ontario. The island nation is farther north and therefore in the days surrounding the summer solstice, when we were there, Ireland is transformed into the “land of the midnight sun.” Well, not quite. But during our stay if I looked out the window at 11 p.m. it was still extremely bright. I could clearly see people passing on
Reflections By Jeff maguire
the street. The sky was tinged with multiple colours as the sun very slowly crept beyond the horizon. By 4 a.m. our rooms were already beginning to brighten as the sun reappeared. Very short nights for the Irish in early summer! Bright nights The first time Kathy and I experienced the summer phenomenon was during a visit to northwest England many years ago. We were staying in the resort city of Morecambe in Lancashire, on the eastern side of the Irish Sea. It was at the same time of year approximately. We retired at 10:30 p.m. and with the light in the room extinguished I was surprised how bright it was. Our hotel faced northwest and when I went to the window and looked outside I could clearly see the wide expanse of Morecambe Bay sweeping into the distance. It was still low tide and I could see people moving about on the sand. When I asked the next day why so many were still out on the bay at that time of night I was told they were digging shellfish. It was that bright! We too experience much longer days in June, although not as lengthy as the early summer days in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Still, the thought of those invitingly long days in June came rushing back to me last week when I was working in the yard at 7:30 p.m. The light was fading fast and by 8 p.m. it was dark. An ominous predictor of things to come! Speaking of working in the yard, this has been a year of contrasts for those who enjoy gardening and keeping their properties in good condition. As of last week we had received some 80 millimetres more rain than normal for the period from June 1 to early September. That fact, combined with some good maintenance practices, has our lawn looking particularly attractive. We have sandy soil and during intense heat waves some areas of our lawn can easily burn off. Even heavy watering only goes so far toward correcting the problem. The fact we have had no such occurrence this summer speaks
to the kind of season we’ve experienced in 2014. All that moisture has been good for flower gardens. In most cases flowers have flourished despite the fact we have had fewer hours of sun. Vegetable gardens, however, have been a different matter. While some gardeners are now in the midst of a decent harvest, others tell me this summer has meant lesser yields. For example, with fall just days away many people are still waiting for the bulk of their tomatoes to ripen. We are among them. Only a few of our tomatoes have ripened. Yet the vines are heavy with well formed, but green, fruit (yes, the tomato is a fruit not a vegetable). On the other hand some people have been fortunate enough to glean a good harvest. My sister and her husband, who live just outside Stittsville, have been giving tomatoes away. Too many have been ripening at once. One of my summer treats is toasted tomato sandwiches. I like bacon on them too but Kathy isn’t keen on me eating bacon, so mostly I do without. This summer we have had to supplement our meagre return of home grown tomatoes by purchasing them at the local farmers’ market or at the supermarket where field tomatoes are readily available in late summer. As I mentioned, some people and some areas have experienced a bumper crop. My sister also likes to make pickled carrots. This year she will have to buy the root vegetables elsewhere. After a huge carrot crop last summer, this year they failed to germinate. Linda blames too much moisture and not enough sunlight. So, success mixed with frustration on the gardening front. Fall welcome As for me, I am hoping the weather forecast I heard last week is correct. A warm, dry fall would be very welcome indeed. Fall in fact is my favourite season of the year. If we could have fall weather year-round I would be a happy camper. We are already planning some leaf-spotting tours and hope to make another sojourn to our alltime favourite fall destination, the picturesque state of Vermont. There is something about fall colours in the Green Mountains that you simply can’t put a price on. See COLUMN page 22

Upper Canada District School Board enjoys successful school start-up News – The Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) enjoyed the most successful school start-up in a decade on Sept. 2, due in part to the board’s decision to implement full-time kindergarten (FTK) at all elementary schools a year ahead of schedule. While other boards struggled this week with the challenge of implementing the final year of the expansion within their districts, the UCDSB was ahead of the pack after fully introducing it last September, said director David K. Thomas. This meant that while other districts wrestled with the problem of large class sizes and other criticism, our 3,400 kindergarten students directly experienced the joy of play-based learning. “Two years ago, our district trustees and senior leadership determined we would fully implement full-time kindergarten one year ahead of the provincial mandate,” said Thomas on Friday, Sept. 5. “That made for a very difficult, very tight budget last year because, of course, the provincial money to compress a five-year program into four did not
come with it. But it was worth it to ensure our new students had a head start in their learning through the quality programming FTK offers.” At the same time, in all of our elementary and secondary schools we enjoyed a near-perfect startup with very few distractions, added Thomas. While this accomplishment may have seemed effortless to the public, attaining that success came only through the hard work and sweat of thousands of employees caring deeply about our students’ learning. In the year leading up to the start of the 20142015 school year, our facilities department was managing no less than 200 projects from renovations to additions. Every project that the department communicated would be done was done, allowing our students to concentrate on learning from the first ring of the school bell, said Thomas. Board custodians outdid themselves. They stepped up to ensure that our schools were clean, worked hard to install SMART boards, and made sure new furniture was in place for the first day of
classes, said Thomas. Our purchasing department was on top of its game. The department assisted schools by providing agendas for more than 18,000 students as part of a central ordering process taken advantage of by many of our schools. Among the other items
ordered to enhance student learning included: 600 iPads; general supplies such as pens, paper, and scissors; as well as new furniture and other supplies for 52 of our full-time kindergarten sites. Submitted by the Upper Canada District School Board.

Even if the worst happens and the rain we have experienced so often this summer continues into fall there is one consolation. Well, if you’re a sports fans that is. This is the time of year when so many sports converge. The Major League Baseball pennant races are more interesting than usual this year, pro football has returned to the nearby nation’s capital (although it looks like a long season for the Redblacks), the European soccer season is already in full swing and our local Junior A hockey club,

the Carleton Place Canadians, are off to a good start (they are an impressive 5-0) as they attempt to defend the league and Eastern Canadian titles they won this past spring. No matter what Mother Nature has in store for us in the months ahead, for me at least there is always a welcome alternative at hand. Meanwhile I’m trying not to think about the “dirty word” that starts with the letter W! If you have a comment or question for Jeff Maguire he can be reached by email at: jeffrey. maguire@rogers.com.

The Appleton wetland report is the topic of the first talk in Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists’ 2014-15 lecture series “When A Tree Falls in the Forest, Does Anyone Hear?” The photo shows the Appleton Silver Maple Swamp, a provincially significant wetland and designated area of natural and scientific interest.
Lifestyle – The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) natural history lecture series resumes for a new season Thursday, Sept. 18 in Almonte. The theme for this year’s series is a twist on the conundrum “When A Tree Falls in the Forest, Does Anyone Hear?” If no one is there to hear the sound of a tree as it crashes through the undergrowth to the forest floor, was it ever there? Nature teaches us that when we ignore the ‘crashing trees’, we do so at our own peril. Like a stone dropped into a pond, the impacts of changes to our natural environment grow in an ever-widening circle, reaching into every aspect of our lives. This year’s speakers will challenge us to inform ourselves and engage or perhaps reengage with important issues affecting our natural world. The series begins with an issue close to home with a talk based on the Appleton Wetlands and the findings outlined in an MVFN report The Appleton Wetland: Its Decline, Cause and Recommended Action released last month. The Appleton silver maple swamp, which has been
flooded each spring for generations, is designated as a provincially significant wetland and an ANSI or area of natural and scientific interest – declared by the provincial government in recognition of its unique ecological features. By 2006 however, extensive damage to the flood-tolerant trees in the wetland became obvious. Concerns about the decline were raised to the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (OMNR) and Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority (MVCA) to no avail. In 2011, and again in 2013, MVFN formed a research group to examine the possible causes of damage to the trees, including the possibility of adverse effects due to continually high water levels as a result of ongoing power generation operations in Almonte. Speaker for the Appleton wetland report presentation will be Al Seaman, a professional engineer, member of MVFN’s Appleton wetland research group and lead author of the report released in August. Seaman, an Almonte resident and native of the northwestern Quebec mining town
of Noranda, graduated from McGill University as an electrical engineer. Early on in his career, Seaman realized that goals of industry do not always respect the requirements of pristine nature. Seaman’s lecture topic is ‘The River’, specifically the Mississippi River with a focus on the stretch from Almonte to Appleton. He will endeavour to demonstrate the impact of changing water levels on the extensive Appleton wetland. All are welcome to this MVFN presentation. Find out why water levels matter and get answers to all your questions about the detailed findings of the research group. The talk takes place at 7:30 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 18 at the Almonte United Church Social Hall, 106 Elgin St., Almonte. There is a non-member fee of $5. Refreshments will be available. For further information, please contact MVFN’s program chair Gretta Bradley at glbradley@icloud.com. For all MVFN events and other club information, please visit mvfn. ca.

This Week’s Pets
orange tabby cat who is declawed on his front. Stewie has diabetes and currently requires one unit of Lantus BID, which means he needs two insulin shots per day. He is on a canned food low carb diet. His caregiver at his foster home This week’s featured pets says that Stewie is very comfortable Stewie Stewie is a six-year-old neutered around other cats, dogs and he is very good with young children. He is currently looking for an experienced adoptive family to call his very own. Daisy and Delilah These two lovely female cats who grew up together, must be adopted together. Their first owner passed away and therefore they came to LAWS. Unfortunately after being adopted, in a very short period of time, they were in the same situation having to be returned to LAWS. Right now they are in a loving foster home but time is running out for them to stay there. Both cats are quiet
but very affectionate. Daisy needs regular brushing as her fur is medium long. We hope these two cats don’t have to be returned to LAWS again. They’re eight and nine-
years-old and still have a lot of spark and zest for life. Calvin The first thing you will notice when you meet me is my beautiful coat, the colour of caramel and whipped cream. And I have the sweet personality to go with it. They say I’m happy-go-lucky, playful and good-natured. Aww shucks, I’m just a young medium-large hound mix who wants to make friends with everyone. I get along just fine with most dogs, and would make an excellent family dog. I’m sharp as a tack too, and eager to learn! I know my sit command and I’m pretty good on a leash. If you like to jog I’m all for it! I’m usually a quiet boy. But I love to run and explore and won’t trade that
for treats. I’m curious and love to follow my hound nose so I will need to be on a leash or in a fenced-in yard until I settle in. If you have any inquiries or would like to meet these furbabies, please call the shelter 613-283-9308.

Community – In an act of unprecedented generosity, a very large donation was made, in a planned giving request, to the Lanark County Therapeutic Riding Program. The late Mary Hugessen (nee Rosamond), a longtime supporter of the riding program, and a lifetime lover of horses, recently left the riding program a $10,000. A portion of this contribution to the therapeutic riding program was invested, in the best possible way, by purchasing and caring for, a young Canadian gelding to be used by special needs riders participating in the program. We have named this strong and steady boy, Mary’s Prince. This beautiful and competent fellow, made possible by Mary’s donation, is a wonderful and much needed addition to our team. Mary’s generosity demonstrated her appreciation of what the riding program does, in a very meaningful way. She has supported our mission over the

Incoming Tweed CEO gets rolling in 2015 Stacey Roy

It’s all about the cheese Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
Business - Kevin Durkee may be making his name as the big cheese of CheeseWerks in Toronto, but his love of cheese began as a boy growing up in Smiths Falls. The native son recently represented the Ontario region on the 2014 Great Canadian Cheese Cook-Off in Toronto last month. Though his Brooklyn-style macaroni and cheese creation didn’t take the top spot, Durkee said he is pleased he was able to take part in such a positive event in promotion of Canadian dairy.

Council supports continued talks for new ambulance bay Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
News - Council supported the concept of moving Lanark County ambulance’s Smiths Falls bay into the municipal complex, but stopped short of committing the estimated $2 million needed from future budgets to make it a reality. A special council session was held Sept. 8 following the committee meeting that unani-
mously supported CAO Malcolm Morris in continuing to negotiate with the county on Smiths Falls fire and county ambulance sharing bay and office space at the municipal complex on Beckwith Street. “At least with this resolution we’re going to stay in the game,” said Coun. Jay Brennan. The resolution commits the town only to continuing discussion around bringing the ambulance bays from Maple Street to the fire station on Church Street.
Morris said he hopes to embark on these discussions with the county “as soon as possible,” recognizing nothing can truly progress until the new council takes their oath in the early part of December. “We’re not going to be able to make these decisions at this stage,” Coun. Chris Cummings said. The negotiated lease agreement will have to be approved by both the town and county See AMBULANCE page SF 4

Kevin Durkee, owner of CheeseWerks in Toronto, developed his love for cheese growing up in Smiths Falls. Inset, is his famous dish.
News - The face behind one of Canada’s most rapidly-growing agriculture firms will be known in January 2015 when the process to hire Tweed’s new CEO is wrapped up. Bruce Linton, who took over Aug. 27 as interim CEO of the medical marijuana plant, confirmed the company will announce the headhunter company they will work with in the hiring process by the end of this week. This company will be “experts in thinking about where you think you’re going, not where you’ve been,” Linton explained. The interim position holder doesn’t know what the new CEO’s job description will be, but can name several critical segments to the business now and in the future. This includes customer service, agriculture, branding, government compliance, stock market and pharmaceutical considerations. “I’m doing that all the time now,” Linton said of the stock market. While his tasks may not be written in stone, it is certain that the new CEO will be a familiar face in Smiths Falls. “Our headquarters is here,” Linton said.
Linton said the move to hire another CEO was born out of the extreme growth Tweed has experienced in the last year and the expectation that this will not slow down in the foreseeable future. “It’s just a function of growing up really quickly,” Linton said. There has been a lot of growing up since this time last year. Twelve months ago Tweed didn’t have two buildings, nearly 100 employees and the national and international opportunities that currently lay before them. “I’m more about what’s ahead of us than what’s behind us,” Linton added of the next three to five years. We need someone “who can drive through those hectic years.” When the new CEO is installed next year Linton will be moving into his permanent position as chair of Tweed. “I’ll be happy to leave my pen and the chair,” Linton added. “My interest was and remains to be the chairman not the CEO.” Last year Tweed announced it would open up in 150,000-square-feet of the former Hershey plant. Since then Tweed has become one of the largest government recognized facilities for medical marijuana in Canada, and perhaps North America.

“We had a real great time,” Durkee said. “It was so fun to be part of this group.” Chef Andrew Farrell of Nova Scotia wowed the judges with his Crispy Greens mac and cheese. “The competition was as sharp as Canadian cheddar,” Farrell said in a press release. The competition was organized by the Dairy Farmers of Canada and had representation from across the country. Joining Durkee and Farrell at the table last month were Bal Arneson, Food Network TV host and award-winning author from Vancouver, British Columbia and chef David Bohati, executive chef at MARKET Restaurant in Calgary, Alta. “I’d like to congratulate all four competitors, and of course the winner, chef Andrew Farrell, for doing an outstanding job today and helping us all celebrate Canadian cheese in all its delicious glory,” said Sandra Da Silva, assistant director, external communications at Dairy Farmers of Canada. CheeseWerks has been committed to incorporating cheese in every dish they serve since opening their doors two and a half years ago. Durkee said he decided to dedicate himself to this comfort food to pay homage to his late mother who operated the Courtyard Tea Room in Perth prior to her retirement in 2005. “She was a major food force in my background,” Durkee said.
Before she opened her tea room, Durkee’s mom inspired him by opening her own dessert business from the basement of their home. He remembers rotating 12-hour shifts as a teenager with his mom. “Our oven turned on Victoria weekend and didn’t turn off until Labour Day,” he said. One of his very first food memories was the excitement he experienced each weekend when his family would travel to Balderson for their weekly ice cream and fresh curd fix. Providing this base of work ethic and love of wholesome foods is what inspired Durkee to change careers nearly three years ago and open his own restaurant. At that time he opened the store with an original sandwich, featuring Balderson cheese. “It’s the original me,” Durkee said. Successive additions to the menu have been named and inspired by travels the family has been on in their lives. When asked if Smiths Falls is reflected on the menu, he turned the question around, asking the community ‘what would a Smiths Falls sandwich be made of’? He urges all readers to challenge their pallet and accept a new cheese offering when available. “I would like them to just try,” Durkee added. “You’re going to find your favourite somewhere along the way.” Canada is known for its award winning cheese production, offering an incredible array of choice from coast-to-coast.

AMBULANCE From front page
before anything is finalized. The proposal, as it is laid out in the staff report, would see the fire and ambulance staff sharing training room and an emergency operations centre. Morris’ report states, “In the event council approves the project to proceed in 2014, the anticipated completion date would be approximately September/October 2015.” At this stage, Morris brought forward Class D estimates pegging the project at $2,068,680. This total cost is currently proposed to be shared between the town (56.7 per cent) and the county (43.3 per cent). Of this $1,172,760 is allocated for the fire department addition and renovations and another $895,919 for the ambulance bays. There would also be an additional $34,516 in unfinished capital that was spent on consulting and engineering fees associated with the fire department addition and renovation. Coun. Shawn Pankow expressed concern with
the size of expenditure, especially considering the town’s current financial constraints. “I don’t believe we have the borrowing capacity to borrow $2 million and to do that work,” Pankow said. The report states the town will see $204,666 of borrowing room freed up in 2016 making it possible for them to carry the additional debt load for the next 20 years in a best case scenario. “This statement is, of course, contingent on no additional debt being incurred between the present time and the end of 2015,” the report reads. The report looks beyond the fire and ambulance set up towards renovation work needed in the municipal complex as a whole. It suggests Robert Beckett, architect be hired to complete a preliminary report and inspection of the complex’ reception area to receive design concepts and construction costs for this area at an estimated cost of $1,100, which would come from this year’s budget. More discussion on this issue will be coming forward once the new council sits in December.

Five great films for one worthy cause Community - Once again, Film Night International (FiNI) is kicking off another great season of fundraising for the Perth and Smiths Falls libraries. All profits from the film series passes go back into a variety of library programs and services such as children’s summer literacy programs, DVD collections, furniture, storage cabinets, and, of course, the annual movie license fee for both the libraries. And once again, FiNI has a great line-up of international
films. On Sept. 24 in Perth and Sept. 25 in Smiths Falls, from India, The Lunchbox. On Oct. 8/9, the French-Italian film, The Past. On Oct. 22/23, a Canadian film, The Grand Seduction, and on Nov. 5/6, from Japan, Like Father, Like Son. The final movie will be shown on Nov. 19/20. “We have always counted on the sale of series passes to raise money for the libraries, as well as cover our expenses which amount to two-thirds of all revenue,” says Faye Cunningham, FiNI’s
founder. “But most importantly, our film series gives our audience an opportunity to see some of the best films released each year.” Passes to all five films are $40. Tickets at the door are $10 each. Screenings at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. in Perth are at the Full Circle Theatre and at 7 p.m. in Smiths Falls at the Station Theatre. Tickets are not interchangeable between screening times or venues for any of the films. Film Night International is part of the Film Circuit which
was founded in 1989 as a division of the Toronto International Film Festival Group. With over 180 locations in over 165 communities across Canada, Film Circuit helps build markets and audiences for Canadian and international film in under-served communities.

Try the Good Food Box program for your fruits and vegetables Community - It’s not a secret that vegetables and fruits are good for you and that consuming them may help you reduce the risk of developing chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. However, it’s not always easy to eat the recommended amount. That’s where the Good Food Box program comes in. It’s a way of buying fresh produce at wholesale prices so that you can increase your intake of fruits and vegetables and still have money for other food items. The Good Food Box program, operating out of Country Roads Community Health Centre in Portland, has been providing fresh fruits and vegetables to residents in the North Leeds area since 2004. It is a non-profit, communitybased, fresh produce distribution program run by volunteers, supported by a Health Promoter and a Registered Dietitian. The program is open to everyone. You can join the program at any time, and there is no obligation to re-order. You can try it out and then order as often as you would like. Participants of the program are asked to place their order with payment by the seventh day of every month. Order options include a $15 large box, $10 small box, $5 fruit bag, and $5 veggie bag. Here’s a sample of what you might find in a large box for $15: 10 pounds of potatoes, two pounds of bananas, half-pound of mushrooms, two pounds of carrots, two pounds of onions, a head of lettuce, four each of apples, pears and oranges, two green peppers, one head of broccoli and one stalk of celery, two squash and one tomato; in a small box, you will expect to pay $10 for five pounds of potatoes, two pounds each of bananas, carrots, onions;
four each of apples, pears, one each of squash, tomato, and a head of lettuce, and a half-pound of mushrooms. In a fruit bag, one can purchase for $5, two pounds of bananas, three apples, three oranges, four plums and four pears and in a veggie bag for $5 you can find two tomatoes, two red peppers, one stalk of celery, one bag of baby carrots and a head of lettuce. The contents of the orders changes from month to month and are based on what is in season. Fresh produce is bought in large quantities from a wholesale produce distributor and, when possible, local farmers. The bulk purchase savings are passed directly on to program participants. Ordering a Good Food Box is a wise way to spend food dollars and also helps to keep the program running. In addition to fresh seasonal produce, you will receive a copy of “The Good Food News”, which is a newsletter filled with nutrition tips, trivia, recipes and more. The order pick-up day is always the third Tuesday of the month and you can choose the location that is best for you. There are pick up locations in Athens, Delta, Elgin, Lombardy, Lyndhurst, Newboro, Portland, Seeley’s Bay and Westport. New volunteers are always welcome. Volunteering lasts for a couple of hours once per month in the morning on the third Tuesday of the month. To order, volunteer, or for more information, please contact Emily at 613-272-2799 or 1-888998-9927 extension 256. Submitted by Country Roads Community Health Centre.

OPINION

Lean in ladies, for the sake of us all
O
pinion – For a candidacy that only lasted one week, it certainly got us thinking. On Thursday, Aug. 28, former Perth Courier reporter and columnist Stephanie Gray filed her paperwork to run for Perth town council. Exactly a week later, as copies of this paper, bearing news of her candidacy were landing on your doorstep, she dropped out of the race. Things were already busy enough in her life – she is the provincial appointee and chair of the Perth police services board, a part-time instructor at Algonquin College as well as a teacher of a university prep course at Smiths Falls and District Collegiate Institute. She also runs her own public relations firm, works with the Friends of Murphys Point Provincial Park, and has a young family. In a press release, she wrote that she had to withdraw her name, namely due to, “new family and work commitments,” which had arisen. In fairness, she felt she could not devote the attention she needed to council duties, had she been elected, to do them justice. Let’s flip the coin to the male side of the equation. Mayor John Fenik is employed by the school board and is co-owner of The Blue Goose “cruise” ship, plying the waters of the Tay. Coun. Ed McPherson is the chief of the Lanark County paramedic service. He also has children, and his wife is a nurse. Coun. Jim Boldt also works full time. But we feel that it is symptomatic of something we see happening with the deadline to file papers to run for town and township councils looming tomorrow (usually 2 p.m. in places like Perth, but check with your municipal office just in case you have a last minute change of heart.) Unless people have filed in the interim between publication date on Tuesday and this paper’s arrival on Thursday, women do not seem to be taking up the challenge of a political run. Their reasons are personal but also similar. In Perth, Coun. Beth Peterkin has opted out of running for re-election to council, meaning one less female on council, barring a new entry. In Tay Valley Township, Deputy Reeve Susan Freeman has also declined to run again. In both cases, the need to look after ill family members was not the only reason to drop out, but it certainly was a contributing factor. This editorial is not to lay blame on female incumbents and challengers but to encourage them. Sir John A. Macdonald’s political career continued its ascent even though his wife was ill at home. Did it have an impact on his life and career? Certainly, but, clearly, did not curb his ambition. In modern times, Dr. Garret FitzGerald served as Ireland’s prime minister, off-and-on, in the 1980s. He would always leave his office mid-afternoon to tend to his beloved wife, and make sure she got her medication. But he always returned to parliament for evening votes. The wider problem is that, even in supposedly egalitarian Canada, women are under-represented on council. Look at the last mayor’s race in Mississippi Mills in 2010. Two female candidates were running for mayor against a lone male, John Levi. Well, Levi won. Nothing misogynistic about his win. The voters there may simply have preferred his platform to that of Jane Torrance or Brenda Hurrle. And Torrance may have drawn enough votes away from Hurrle that could have put Hurrle over the top. Establishing quotas for female candidates is, frankly, a condescending solution, if it can even be called that. Author Sheryl Sandberg is forever encouraging women to, in her words, “lean in,” a reference to women she saw at board meetings who sat around the periphery of the board room table, but not at the big table itself. When told that some of the men whose places were reserved at the table would be unable to attend, and that they were welcome to “lean in” and move into their spots, they still held back. Ladies, don’t wait for someone to invite you. Lean in yourself.

Giving golf what fore
pinion - The cheers for Brooke Henderson, newly named top ranking amateur golfer in the world, are getting louder and louder and why not? Talent like this doesn’t come around every day, and for those of us in Smiths Falls the achievements of this local high school student are all the sweeter having watched her blossom on the links over the years. I remember seeing Brooke at the Smiths Falls Golf & Country Club some years ago as a young girl trying so hard to get her golf bag over to the cart where her father and sister were waiting. At the time I thought ‘what a great father-daughters activity’ never realizing the hours this trio spent in the fresh air would result in such a sporting force to be reckoned with. Having the privilege of watching her grow up has made her a member of all our families and someone whose successes and failures are felt by all of us in some way. For this reason it’s no surprise that the list of attendees to this
STACEY ROY For the Record
week’s meet and greet at the Smiths Falls Golf & Country Club Sept. 9 was around 70 people. Who doesn’t want to be part of the excitement? There’s no doubt Brooke’s future is bright in the sport of golf, but her success is more than that for Smiths Falls. She is a shining light of female sporting excellence to inspire our daughters and an undeniable young ambassador for the town itself. Smiths Falls council has regularly noted her impact on the community. At this year’s AMO conference attendees would approach Mayor Dennis Staples and bring Brooke’s name up at first mention of the town. To acknowledge this impact, the town is unveiling tourism signs at the entrance
of town Sept. 22, 3:30 p.m. across from the Garden Market. The signs will recognize both Brooke and her sister, Brittany who is doing very well in golf in her own right. From young girls enjoying a sport to an iconic symbol for a community. What a gift these girls are to parents like me. Recently, my oldest daughter came home and announced that sport is only something boys do. Immediately the names of Brooke and Brittany came out of my mouth as prime examples of strong female role models. I think the fact that they are from town made it real for her. Suffice it to say she has never said something like this to me since. I wish Brooke all the success in the world. I hope she takes the time to really enjoy every experience she has and is able to integrate her passion for the sport with the joys to be found in regular teenage life. Maybe that’s the mom in me, but I can’t help but worry for this young girl who is growing up in an everbrighter light full of expectation.

Resident feels recreation cost-sharing decision a bad one DEAR EDITOR:
It was a sad day when mayor Doug Struthers and the Merrickville-Wolford council decided not to renew the recreational cost-sharing program with Smiths Falls. Our neighbour, Smiths Falls, has a wonderful new arena, which our residents could be using if the costsharing program was renewed. There is no way Merrickville-Wolford would ever be able to afford an arena of our own. Instead of cancelling this agreement, it should have been renewed

and the renewal promoted in the township to encourage more residents to use these great facilities and programs. With a growing population with young families I fear this decision will, in hindsight, be looked on as a bad one. With a civic election coming up this fall, I suggest anyone who thinks this to be a short-sighted move that they show up at all-candidates meetings and make this an election issue.

Strategic plan would help in guiding spending DEAR EDITOR:
Rideau Lakes Township, what a fantastic place to call home. Past township councils have worked hard to bring the various former townships and village into one local government unit that offers a wide range of services. There are service agreements in place with neighbours (Athens, Smiths Falls, Westport) for those services (recreation, fire) more effectively delivered over larger areas. Annually there are 50-70 new homes built in the township, many adding to our waterfront assessment base. Small business and tourism also contribute to our local economy. So what is missing? Rideau Lakes has no strategic plan to guide its spending. Business must often undertake doing a business plan in order to borrow or grow their business. Rideau Lakes has an annual budget of about $15 million and a written community based plan would help guide these spending choices.
Most progressive municipalities undertake strategic planning. The exercise is particularly important when a new council starts its four year term. It involves all of council, staff and the general public. It would set out the townships priorities. Once the priorities are agreed upon, specific goals/objectives can be set. Then our staff and our elected officials can be held accountable for outcomes. With a plan in place there is less tendencies to “throw money” at projects or issues that have not been identified as a priority. Everyone is more effective and accountable when the focus is clear. There is never enough money to do all the work desired. A clear, focused strategic plan would assist us in maintaining and providing reasonable taxation and services.

Work’s not over for Pat Dolan, incumbent deputy reeve of Montague News – The following information came from an interview conducted by the Record News. Question 1: Can you give me a brief biography on yourself? Answer: I was born in Sudbury, but my roots in Montague date back 100 years. In 1972, I was hired on as an officer with the Smiths Falls Police Service where I worked until retiring four years ago after 36 years. At this time I had been deputy chief for a dozen years. I am proud in those 12 years I served as deputy chief we never had a deficit budget. I’ve lived in the township for 38 years where I raised my family. I was 28 years with the Montague volunteer fire service. Question 2: Is this your first election as a candidate, and why have you decided to run in this year’s election? Answer: This will be my second term as deputy reeve in Montague if elected Oct. 27. I believe I represented the community well locally and always tried to act in the best interest of
the community. I believe in open and transparent environment with ample access to council and information when requested. Question 3: Can you explain your top three priority issues you would like to work on if you are elected and why they are so important to you? Answer: I believe in cost effective management and cost restraint. We should be able to operate at or below the cost of living increase. To help us balance our books in the future I think we need to go after industrial and commercial development along Hwy 15. I see warehousing and shipping and receiving facilities. I feel the Smiths Falls airport is a very valuable resource to the community as evidenced by the success of Race the Runway. I also feel there is potential for future development there and we need to be mindful of that. In terms of roads, I think we need to aggressively upgrade our gravel roads so they are shovel ready when the province or federal government of-

Pat Dolan has enjoyed working for the residents of Montague Township as deputy reeve this last term and hopes the community will see fit to return him to this position for the next four years.
Abbass wants to continue tenure
News – My name is Jim Abbass and I have lived in Montague Township all my life (61 years) with my wife Kathy of 41 years. We raised our three children, Ryan, Keith and Stacy in this wonderful township. In addition we now have seven beautiful grandchildren. I own my house and I have rental property in Montague as well. I have worked in our family business for over 40 years – Ron Abbass Electrical Ltd. I have put up Christmas decorations along with my sister Marie and my late father, Ron for over 40 years. We have people travel from Ottawa, Kingston, Brockville, Toronto and many other surrounding areas to see these displays. This has brought attention to our township. I belonged to the Montague Skidoo Club as a teenager. I attended Harper Condie Public School and Smiths Falls District High School. This is my second election. I have enjoyed the previous four-year term serving the people of Montague. I learned much but know there is still a lot more to learn and do. I enjoyed meeting new people as well as making sure I put the residents of Montague first in every decision I have made. While you cannot please everyone, I take pride in hoping I have met the needs and thoughts of the majority of the people of this township. With the downloading of both provincial and federal governments, it is a time for some tough decisions to be made in the next four-year term. My goal is to handle these decisions wisely and to work in a direction that will help Montague to grow and prosper. My top three priorities this term are roads, water and sewer and growth to residential population and commercial lots. I am also dedicated to continuing the process of bringing new doctors to this area to fill the already existing turnkey operation we have helped to establish. The Russ Beach Smiths Falls/Montague Airport is important to me as well. I think it is vital to both Montague and Smiths Falls. They work hard at many different events to bring attention to our township as well as the Smiths Falls area. I am also committed to the Seniors Club who work hard at events and fundraising, which provides the seniors of our

The Montague Township Firefighters are a group that work extremely well together for our safety. They also spend many hours devoting time to non-profit fundraising for their different charities. Their wives are to be commended as well for the many hours they attribute to these fundraising events. The group effort produces great results for the township. I am committed to working with them in their endeavours. I think Montague Township will grow in leaps and bounds with the hard work of everyone. It is a great place to live and raise families. The tax rate is attractive to new comers. The short commute to Ottawa allows city people to have the home of their dreams and quiet country living. It is an attractive township that I am proud to live in. With the knowledge and experience I now have from these past four years, I know I can make a difference for the people of Montague.
fers grants. I believe Nolans Road and Burchill Road are shovel-ready for this purpose. A lot of these grants are 50-50 and I don’t believe in mortgaging our future for the benefits of today, so we have to be careful there. I believe we need to look at the water rates in Atironto as I feel they are fairly high. We had a fund to subsidize these rates, but this fund is nearly depleted. We need to get an in-depth study of the existing contract and then sit down and negotiate with Smiths Falls. I would like council to develop a subcommittee to address this issue. We have to start building a small reserve for maintenance of the water system in Atironto. Health care and physician recruitment is another important topic. I think we need to work with the new health care recruiter in Smiths Falls to bring new medical professionals to the area to reduce wait times at the hospital.
Answer: I see the town continue in growing its residential tax base with small commercial growth. However, I think we need to broaden our tax rate and attract small business, including home-based businesses.
Question 5: Is there anything you would like voters to know before they go to the polls this fall? Answer: I’ve really enjoyed the last four years and look forward to the next four years if I have the confidence of taxpayers. Vote for me and I will continue to work for you. Voters should be aware that the Township of Montague is using telephone and online voting system. Residents will receive an election information package in the mail with a pin number. From 9 a.m. Oct. 20 until 8 p.m. Oct. 27 residents can use these two methods to vote any time. If you have any trouble please go to the voter help centre at the township office.

Events - September marks the start of the 27th annual fall fund raising campaign for the United Way in Lanark County (UWLC), where the community comes together to help those in need. “Our goal this year is to effect change in 8,500 lives in Lanark County,” says Johann Ramsaran, board chair. “Our annual campaign allows us to support our community - through our member agencies and their volunteers who reach out to our seniors, our youth, and our disadvantaged in the county, to help them to a better life.” To celebrate the opening of the campaign this fall, UWLC will be hosting kick-off breakfasts in Smiths Falls, Mississippi Mills, Perth, and Carleton Place, with the Smiths Falls breakfast taking place on Tuesday, Sept. 23 from 7:30 to 9 a.m. at the upstairs lounge in the Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre. “We want to engage our donors and demonstrate the importance of their contributions,” says Fraser Scantlebury, executive director of the United Way. Each event will feature a brief presentation on the work of the UWLC, as well as testimonials and presentations
He’s also a huge proponent of accountability and of better communication between town hall and the residents of the town. “Residents have a right to know how their tax dollars are being spent, and how their town is being run by the people they’ve elect, as well as the people whose salaries they pay,” Gallipeau said.

1983 when few houses were being built in town, Gallipeau developed the first of three subdivisions in town. In the ensuing years until 2008, he completed seven subdivisions in Smiths Falls, Montague, and Rideau Lakes besides the many rural homes he built. “It started out as a way to keep busy, back then interest rates were high – in the 12 to 13 per cent range which meant profit margins were low, but I kept working and kept my crew working,” he says. In today’s climate there is plenty of development, but Gallipeau sees a glaring deficit in the town’s amenities, particularly when it comes to transportation. He’s dead set on seeing some form of reliable and affordable transportation take hold. That alone, he believes, will

News - Joe Gallipeau has lived here his whole life – in fact he is a fourth generation Smiths Falls resident and proud of it. “We have a lot of attributes other communities don’t have, like the Rideau Canal, our parks and a lot of room for expansion, tremendous support and facilities for athletics, a great high school – there’s a lot,” says Gallipeau. Promoting this town is one of the reasons this local business man has decided to run for council. He says he believes that the town needs to do a lot more to publicize its facilities and attractions. “We have all the amenities that people look for in a community, but nobody knows we’re here. We need to sell Smiths Falls as a good place to live, and it’s one of the most affordable towns in the region,” he says. A lifelong businessman, Gallipeau says he knows all too well that if people don’t know you’re there they won’t look for you. Always more a doer than a talker, he joined the Smiths Falls Chamber of Commerce to help to bolster the town’s image. “I want to see the chamber promote the town and tourism in this town, but there is still some resistance,” he says. A no-nonsense character with the kind of warmth that inspires loyalty in his employees and engenders a respectful irreverence in the three generations of Gallipeaus that surround him, Gallipeau never seems to stop working. “He’s a bit of a workaholic really,” says Diane Gallipeau, his wife of 47 years.

OPP’s SAVE unit keeps recreational users safe, in line Desmond Devoy
desmond.devoy@metroland.com
News – The Snowmobile, ATV and Vessel Enforcement (SAVE) unit is not a unit you may see or hear of every day, but they are closer than you may think at some of the more high profile crime stories of late. Last month, when a teenage driver’s car went off of Riverside Drive in Perth and was completely submerged, Const. Linden Murray of the SAVE unit was on scene with his commanding officer. While the Lanark County detachment of the OPP was in charge, the SAVE unit was on standby to offer any assistance if needed. The SAVE unit has three detachments across the province in North Bay, Orillia and Smiths Falls. “We’re on the trails 365 days of the year, when we are not out on a boat,� said Murray, during a presentation at the Lanark County police services board association meeting in the Beckwith Township council chambers in Blacks Corners on Wednesday, Sept. 3. “We do a lot of RIDE checks,� both on the water, and on the trials, but they often team up with local detachment members “because no one knows the area better,� he said. “We do a lot of search and rescue, unfortunately,� he added. “Far too much.� More often, the SAVE unit is being called out to major events like the World Electronic Music Festival in Killaloe, Ont., where between 7,000 and 12,000
young people are crammed into a fiveacre field. “You can well imagine the alcohol and drugs that come into this field,� he said. Walking through the scene, it is not unusual “to find people in all manner of states of medical distress. It’s a mess.� Another event they deal with is a major marine event called Pottahawk on the shores of Lake Erie every July. “Again, alcohol issues are huge, a lot of fights. It’s huge,� he said. “You can image the logistical issues to police an event like that,� with boats lined up several vessels deep from shore. Murray noted that he was glad to see the old OPP boats being retired and replaced with what are known as Boston Whalers, which are “designed purely for law enforcement. (They are) a lot better than the boats we had before.� While officers always wear their life vests while on the water, some people are getting the message about life vests – while others stubbornly refuse to even get them. “We’ve noticed, this summer, there are more and more people wearing their life jackets,� he said, before adding that, “the people that do have them (on board) are getting better at wearing them. Those that do not have them are not getting any better.� During the question and answer session, Murray was asked about personal water crafts (PWCs) and he conceded that “we do get a lot of complaints about PWCs,� which are smaller craft, but have bigger engines.
“We have spent more time on them than on anything else,� he said. When he is out on a lake, he and his fellow officers will tend to check all of the PWCs first, before checking any other water craft. “They know that they are going to be stopped,� he said, but, in anticipation of this, “they have everything that they need,� paperwork and equipment-wise. But he was quick to add that “we do not have any more tickets to PWCs than any other craft.� While texting behind the wheel is a big problem on the province’s roads, texting is not that big of an issue on the water or the trails. “On boats, everyone is trying to keep their phones dry,� he said with a laugh. ATV operators also have their phones wrapped up in watertight containers. But just like on the roads, alcohol is an issue wherever his unit goes. He noted that there are two types of ATV operators – those who stick to the trails, and those “who aim their bike into the bush and see how straight a line they can take.� These latter drivers, not surprisingly, are the ones he and his unit tend to deal with more often. Not surprisingly, for a unit operating 365 days a year, weather is of little bother to them – or even the people they are trying to catch. Murray reported that he can get just as many infractions out on a lake during a day that has pouring rain as he can during a day with gorgeous sunshine. There was one high-profile arrest last
week that, though it involved an ATV, did not involve Murray’s unit. Pop star Justin Bieber was arrested and charged with assault and dangerous driving following an incident outside of Stratford, Ont. While that arrest was dealt with by local OPP in southern Ontario, early
media reports stated that he was arrested in Perth. This was later corrected to read Perth County, but not before Insp. Derek Needham, detachment commander for the Lanark County OPP, reported that “my phone has been ringing (a lot) this morning.�

on New Year’s Day 2015, municipal leaders met earlier this month at the Gallipeau Centre – the former Rideau Regional Centre – in Smiths Falls about what they will likely be paying coming January. “I’m just as anxious waiting for the numbers as you are,� said Needham. “(But) they are still trying to figure out what the definition of property is.� Kidd did give credit to the Liberal government for adapting the formula over the past few months. “They did listen,� Kidd said. “Some governments would not have changed at all.�

News – Do 100 apartments count as 100 separate properties? What about 100 condos? Does a mall with 100 stores count as a single property, or 100 separate ones? In all likelihood, our county’s elected representatives were not certain either, but, believe it or not, the answer to these seemingly arcane questions could have an impact on your pocketbook when the new policing funding formula comes into effect. The new formula is based on a cost per household – but that definition has been expanded to include properties, like business properties, with the possible exclusion of vacant lots. But even then‌ “Until that definition is done, it affects the final outcome,â€? said Mississippi Mills Mayor John Levi at the Lanark County association of police services boards (PSB) meeting at the Beckwith Township council chambers on Wednesday, Sept. 3. Montague Township Reeve Bill Dobson attended the Association of Municipalities of Ontario meeting earlier this year, as did Beckwith’s reeve, Richard Kidd, who is also the county’s warden. Though they attended many of the same meetings, the two men walked away with different interpretations of what constituted a property, as the two men debated if a mall counted as one property, or if condos counted as single properties. “I lay awake at night thinking about this too,â€? said Insp. Derek Needham, detachment commander for the Lanark County OPP. While Lanark County municipalities were given a more clear picture of just what they will pay for policing starting

Lifestyle – The next meeting of the Smiths Falls Horticultural Society is at the Smiths Falls Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 95 at 7:15 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 16. We will have a short presentation from Karen Schecter, chief executive officer of the Smiths Falls Public Library. Karen will be outlining the books donated by SFHS as well as the wide selection of gardening books available for loan. This is a great opportunity to learn what there is for everyone to help with virtually any gardening challenge from designing a new garden to maintaining what you have. The remainder of the evening will be an open discussion on all things to do with gardening. This will take the form of a question and answer session so jot down your thoughts or questions to share. A number of members plan to bring in their fairy gardens as well as some “miniature” gardens to show at the meeting. There will be time allowed for everyone to admire the wide variety of these creations as well as opportunity to discuss with the owners the means and materials used to design them. There will be a peoples’ choice award for various categories. Hope Bell, our president, inspired many members in March with an introduction to the hobby. If you have seen these before and would like to learn more about making your own come out to join us. Our monthly photo contest winners back in June were: Brian Bellevue first, Carol Stanley second and Anneke Phillips and Marcia Phillips tied for third. We have just September and October left in this year’s contest so don’t miss out, get your photos in. The topic for September is Reap What You Have Sown. October topic is Garden Put to Bed. We congratulate Lyla and Dennis Rowan as win-
Smiths Falls Horticultural Society ners of the Garden of the Month for August. The garden is located at 34 Church Street West. Dennis has done so much in only two years. Please have a look. We are pleased to announce that the recipient of our annual $500 bursary was Lyndsay Dickson. This presentation is made at the awards ceremony at SFDCI to a deserving student as selected by the school’s staff. The award is for a student pursuing postsecondary education in a horticulture related field. Congratulations Lyndsay and best wishes with you studies. We are hoping to have a tour of a garden in Merrickville on Friday, Sept. 19. Members are invited to meet at the Goose and Gridiron Restaurant located at 317 Lawrence Street (the main street one comes in on) in Merrickville just before noon for lunch regardless if the tour happens or not. Ask for more details at the meeting. The time is coming to spruce up our public planting beds. We are always looking for volunteers to help out. The task of course is easier with many hands but never takes more than an hour or so of your time. It is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, Oct. 7 at 10 a.m. We meet at the Legion so bring out a few tools and gloves! Please remember that we still have one more flower show at the October meeting, on the 21. This is our last hurrah show so just bring in anything left in your garden to show. Please contact our president Hope at 613-275-1018 for any information you require about your own local horticultural society. Also visit our web site at: http://www.gardenontario.org/site.php/smithsfalls. Charles McLenaghan is the media director for the Smiths Falls Horticultural Society.

LIM Allan 1924 - 2014
Leonard Allan Lim passed away peacefully at his home in Ottawa on April 11, 2014. A private family inurnment was held at Beechwood Cemetery, Chinese Community of Ottawa and District Section on July 24 , 2014 - the date he would have turned 90 years of age. He was predeceased by his parents and wife Helen. He is survived by his sons Peter (Jackie) of Ottawa and Larry (Liz) of Calgary; brother Bill (Eva) of Nanaimo, BC; sisters Mary Lee of Toronto, ON and Kay Quon of Edmonton, AB.; six grandchildren and nieces and nephews. The Lim family lived in Carleton Place circa 1929 to 1951, operating the New York Cafe next to the Royal Bank of Canada. The four children attended the local public elementary and high schools. During the war years, he joined the RCAF, obtaining his pilot’s wings and the rank of Flying Officer. However, he did not see action overseas; he was awaiting assignment in Ottawa when the war ended. After the war, with DVA assistance, he completed high school and proceeded to study Mechanical Engineering at the University of Toronto in Ajax, graduating with honours. He married Helen Wong in Toronto and they had two sons. His work took the young family to Ottawa where he was employed with Transport Canada until his retirement in 1990. Allan had many diverse interests. In his early years, he was a member of the CP canoe club and a junior member of the Mississippi Golf Club. Later, he and Helen were active members of the Ottawa and district square dancing association. He and Bill both attained life member status through ACBL-sanctioned duplicate bridge sessions/tournaments. In more recent times, Allan and Kay visited with Ron Roe at the Heritage Museum in CP. They attended the CPHS reunion, organized by Mary Cook, held in the summer of 2010. Shortly following the reunion event, historian Terry Skillen, President of the Carleton Place and Beckwith Historical Society, made contact with Allan (along with other members of the family) in the course of creating the Lim family historical document which resides at the museum. Should family friends wish to do so, a donation in Allan’s memory may be made to Memorial Park United Church or to the CPB Heritage Museum, both located in Carleton Place.

With heavy hearts we announce the death of Valerie Beechey, on Monday September 1, 2014.

Valerie was especially proud of her grandchildren, Quinton, Libby, Cory, Stephen and Sadie. She was also very proud of her older sister Esther. Coming from Kirkland Lake, Valerie always shared very delightful stories of growing up in Northern Ontario. A fourth generation nurse, she began her career in a small hospital in Englehart; followed by a stay at St Joseph’s Hosptial in Toronto until starting a family. Always interested in assisting troubled children, Valerie began to work as a volunteer for a youth centre in Oakville. Making the commitment to work with youth, she and her family returned to Eastern Ontario where her father was born and began to work with troubled youth in her home. From such a humble beginning she established two residential programs that through the years served hundreds of difficult children. After retiring, Valerie began to winter in Florida where she developed a new set of friends. Although the last few years were a physical challenge for Valerie she never lost her friendly manner or her quick wit. The family would like to thank Dr. Moxon and the second floor staff of the Perth Hospital for their care. Cremation has taken place and a memorial service will he held on Saturday Sept 20, 2014 at 11 am at Arden United Church, with a reception to follow at Arden Community Hall.

Predeceased by his parents, Andrew Brown and Lillian Ellen Rutherford Brown, of Granby Qc. Peacefully in his sleep at the Bayfield Manor, Kemptville Ont. Bart was born in Montreal Qc, raised by his parents and educated in Granby Qc. Prior to departing Granby, Bart worked at the Miner Rubber Co. for several years, then ventured forth and landed in Ottawa where he honed his skills as a cabinet maker. In the early 70’s Bart moved down the line to Kemptville Ont., where he owned and operated a first rate cabinet making shop, a small tool rental operation and a craft store with the assistance of his then partner June Pearce. In his latter years, Bart was plagued with advancing Alzheimer’s, which he accepted without complaint, and lived out his final years in relative peace, pain free, never bothered by the heat or cold, with an abundance of coffee always available, and attended by some wonderful ladies, especially Ruth Ann and Paula, who doted on him. As Bart’s mental health began to deteriorate, a group of his friends were constantly vigilant of his actions and needs, making sure he was never harmful to himself or others until he was able to enter assisted living residency at Bayfield Manor. The care and consideration extended by his friends is a testament to small town living, something seemingly lost from bygone years. The care and kindness of staff and management at Bayfield Manor was wonderful and greatly appreciated by Bart’s caregivers. A private cremation was trusted to Brown Chapel of Hulse, Playfair and McGarry Kemptville; interment will take place at a later date.

JACKSON – In loving memory of our sweet Nancy, who left us one year ago, September 13, 2013. If we listen really close In the silence of the night We hear your voice to comfort us And say that you’re alright. But it’s often hard to understand Why certain things must be And the reasons why they happen Are so often hard to see. But we find comfort in the knowledge That God is always there To keep the one we loved so much Forever in His care. Loved with a love beyond all telling Missed with a grief beyond all tears Until we meet again Mom, Cindy, Doug and Family, Kevin, Donna and Family, Heather, Tom and Family

OBITUARY
OBITUARY
Elizabeth VanderHoek Compton Elizabeth was born in May 1924 in Ottawa, Ontario. She died peacefully in her sleep at age 90 on Tuesday, September 2, 2014, in Hemet, California. Elizabeth’s early years were in Ottawa, playing and helping out in her father’s grocery store. The family later moved to Toronto, where her violin teacher recognized her talent and commended her to the Toronto Conservatory of Music. Her love of music was constant throughout her lifetime, and Elizabeth expressed her joy playing a range of music from classical to gospel on the piano and violin. Because of the Depression, the family moved to Smiths Falls. She graduated from high school there and was accepted at McGill University; however, the high cost of tuition prevented her from attending. During the war years, Elizabeth lived in Kingston with an aunt and went to work in the chemistry lab at an aluminum plant. She met Peter VanderHoek (stationed in Kingston for the Canadian Army) at a social function for the Christian Men’s Association. When the Army sent Peter to Saskatchewan, they married and moved west. After Peter’s discharge, they lived briefly in Vancouver, B.C., then returned to Smiths Falls and began their family. Because of harsh winters spent working on the Canadian Pacific Railway, Peter and Elizabeth made the decision to move to Southern California in the early 1960s. Elizabeth was preceded in death by her first husband, Peter VanderHoek, and by two of their 7 children. She is survived by 5 children, 17 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, and 2 great-great grandchildren. Elizabeth is also survived by her youngest brother Berwick Hyland and his family in Smiths Falls, as well as by her second husband Ed Compton and his family. Elizabeth rejoiced in the Lord and enjoyed gatherings with friends, family, and colleagues. Elizabeth’s kind and caring nature endeared her to many throughout the years, and she will be sorely missed.

Hospital fundraiser is rescheduled for Sept. 14 Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
Events - Staff at Good Vibrations plan to hit it out of the park Sept. 14 when it comes to their planned fundraiser in support of the Smiths Falls hospital physiotherapy department. The event has been rescheduled from Aug. 16 to this Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and will run rain or shine. On Sept. 14 the Good Vibrations parking lot on Lorne Street will be filled with childrenoriented activities to get kids moving in support of those working to get their movement back. Headlining the event will be an opportunity to step into the batting cages recently installed at the gym. A bucket of 25 balls is $5 with all funds going to the physio department. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody who has tried them has loved it,â&#x20AC;? Danielle Leach said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty exhausted after swinging the bat.â&#x20AC;? Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s craft tables will be set up with donation jars available. All funds will go to support the physiotherapy departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purchase of a stepper. The fundraising goal is $4,000 for a stepper machine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do as much as we can to get up to that,â&#x20AC;? said Leach.
A stepper (or stair climber) helps patients undertaking physiotherapy in numerous ways by strengthening their lower extremity stability and control and stimulating range of motion in this area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It also allows the patient to work independently while the therapists are helping other patients,â&#x20AC;? wrote Lise Smith of the Smiths Falls Community Hospital Foundation who will accept the donation on behalf of the physiotherapy department. The decision to support this particular hospital department was an easy one for Leach whose facility supports many gym members who are recovering from an injury. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When people are done their physio, generally, they come here,â&#x20AC;? Leach said. The Smiths Falls laser tag company, Siloki will be on site offering a chance to get into the laser tag mobile facility for a small fee. If there is rain, the laser tag will be moved to their facility on Poonamalie Road (off of Highway 15) with all funds raised that afternoon going to the hospital fundraiser. A hotdog barbecue will round out the fundraiser that day thanks to the support of the local firefighters.

Vendors still welcome to register Museum launches art-based program for Creative Arts Fair on Sept. 27 Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
Events - This Sept. 27 the creative community in Smiths Falls will gather for the first time ever in a unique event aimed at informing current and budding artists of what learning opportunities are available close to home. “We’re hoping that people will start to see themselves in the arts community where they might not have,” explained Lynda Daniluk, member of the Smiths Falls and District Arts and Culture Council which is hosting the inaugural event. The upcoming creative arts fair will be held from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Smiths Falls District Community Health Centre (2 Gould St.) and will provide an opportunity for the public to learn about what creative outlets are available in their community and what support is out there be it lessons, mentorship or workshops. Daniluk conceived of the idea after years of attending the sports sign-up night at the local arena where she was able to expose her sons to the athletic options in the community in one evening. “You can actually say to your child, ‘OK, pick one,’” Daniluk said. The goal of the day is to provide information to the public and not sell product. The local council hopes the event will become a place where creative individuals can gather for networking, while inspiring the next generation of artist. All participants will be included in an online directory (found on the council’s website - www.smithsfallsarts. com/arts). As the information fair grows annually, new participants will be added to the directory to provide a virtual go-to location for Smiths Falls
residents looking to tap into their creative side. “The community is enriched because we have creative artists in our midst. I wouldn’t like to think of our world without them,” Daniluk said. The beauty found in gardens, music or a good book can unlock the spirit of a person and reminds us that we are not alone in our challenges. “I find if it wasn’t for that I would spend more days depressed,” Daniluk added. “You can feel less alone.” Creativity feeds our souls and can be found in every element of our lives from the clothes we wear to the wallpaper on our walls and the soap we clean with each day. All of these types of creative work are encouraged to be part of the upcoming creative arts fair. “It’s a showcase of talent,” Daniluk said. Creative individuals are still welcome to set up an information booth at the upcoming fair. Redeemer Dance Academy and Vine Rhymes are just two of the vendors so far. Simply prepare information on your creative medium and ways in which the public can join you through lessons, workshops or mentorship in that endeavour. “Really, we’re looking for seed nurturers,” Daniluk said. Organizers are hoping to have 17 vendors at this year’s event. To join this group of creative individuals please contact the council at smithsfallsarts@gmail.com. There is a $20 security deposit to reserve your spot, which will be refunded on the day of the event. This year’s event will be held during the Cultural Days weekend held Sept. 26 to 28, 2014 in Ontario.

Events - Future engineers will be dawning their striped hats and heading out to the Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario (RMEO) Saturday mornings for an arts-based program sure to keep your little engineer on the right track. Participants, aged four to six years, are welcome to come aboard starting this Saturday, Sept. 13. The sessions run for an hour (9 to 10 a.m.) every Saturday until Oct. 11. and aim to bring the love of all things trains together with the joyfully tactile experience of art. “We want people to know that the railway museum isn’t just about trains,” said Anne Shropshire, museum curator. The program will feature a new train-inspired craft each morning. Participants will be all decked out and ready to guide the engine into the station by the end of the five-week sessions. Some of the activities planned include making your own lantern out of recycled material, crafting a caboose photo frame and creating your own railway uniform. A special train-themed pancake breakfast will wrap up the program on the last day. There are only 10 spots per morning session and registration is open now. Parents can sign up for an individual session at $5.65 each or all five at
$22.60. Museum staff continue to welcome registration for individual sessions past their imposed deadline of Sept. 10 and encourage parents to call them at 613-283-5696 to save a spot. Parents are encouraged to take part in the program with their children. The Saturday Morning Engineers program was designed and will be led by Emma Laforest, a summer student who is now working weekends at the museum. Shropshire said the program was born out of the need for programming for children in this age bracket and the incredible success of the March Break and summer programming the museum has offered this year. “It’s just been an overwhelming success,” Shropshire said. D&D Crafts N Treasures (10 Main St. W.) are partnering with the museum to offer this unique programming opportunity. Debbie Lawless, owner of the craft store, said she is pleased to help fill the gap for this age group while inspiring creative linking in local youth. “With Smiths Falls not having too much to offer young children, this program gives me the chance to take part in offering something fun and also helps the growth of my business as well,” Lawless said. “I have grandchildren of my own so I know how important it is that children are still being exposed to arts and crafts.”

Smiths Falls marks first global Pulmonary Fibrosis month Stacey Roy
sroy@perfprint.ca
News - The Town of Smiths Falls has joined the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation and the world this September to mark the first Pulmonary Fibrosis (PF) awareness month. Acting mayor Ken Graham made the proclamation at the regular council session held Sept. 2 where he asked all residents of the town to learn about this rare condition and become involved in raising
the profile and its need for scientific research in their communities. Jacqui Bowick-Sandor, a local resident who has been living with PF for about four years now, attended the council session to thank council for their support of this new initiative and, by extension, the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation who has been invaluable in her journey of living with this chronic condition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I needed help at any moment they were there for me,â&#x20AC;? she said. It all started in 2010 when she went
in for nasal surgery and the swollen and clubbed nature of her finger tips was recognized. This began the start of a journey for Bowick-Sandor that has meant numerous medical tests and lingering physical symptoms such as struggling to breathe while climbing the stairs to her bedroom, and exhaustion. Bowick-Sandor is a strong believer of activism and the power of awareness. Since 2012 she has been working with the foundation to educate provincial and federal politicians and scientists about the devastating impact of the
illness and the need for further research. Local events A number of local events have been planned, including an information table being set up today from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on (Sept. 11) and Sept. 15 at Special Greeting Cards & Gift Shop (8 Russell St.). Cookie orders in support of the foundation will also be accepted these days. Chocolate chip cookies are $7 a dozen. Want to place an order, but canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make it down? Call 613-284-0027 or email: exact33@hotmail.com.
The County Fair Mall will also host an information table from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sept. 13 and 27. This event will focus on organ donation. A handful of local transplant recipients will be on hand to talk about their personal stories. Then on Sept. 20, 8 p.m. the PF community is asking the world to stand with them in remembering those who have died due to the illness by lighting a candle in their home as part of the Global Candle Lighting event.
Open Stage closes for last time on Sunday sroy@perfprint.ca
News - This Sunday Bev Hitchins, founder of Open Stage, will take her final bow after 18 years of operating the free music in the park event. The evenings of jamming until the sun sets at Lower Reach Park will be silenced after this weekend leaving her regulars with no place to gather for a good song and a young childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rendition of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll miss it for sure, but I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s run its course with me,â&#x20AC;? Hitchins said. In 1996 Hitchins recalls speaking with Mayor Dennis Staples about creating some activity at the recreational park on the weekends once the stage was built. From there Hitchins tapped into her passion for music and the rest is history.
Staples congratulated the Smiths Falls woman on her unwavering commitment to being at the park every Sunday night and offering an opportunity for music of various genres to fill the air. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done just a superb job with Open Stage,â&#x20AC;? the mayor said. Likewise, Hitchins thanks the mayor and parks and recreation staff for their confidence in her and support of Open Stage throughout the years. Hitchinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; contribution to the community has not gone unnoticed. In 2011 she received the Charles Gilhuly Award for her work with the summer program. During the presentation April 18 of that year, Staples paid tribute to Hitchinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; can-do attitude and hands-on approach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She never gives up; she
always finds a way to make things happen,â&#x20AC;? Staples said at the time. The last 18 years has seen a number of memorable moments in front of the microphone from surprise visits by Ottawa band, Circuit, to the addition of a travelling musician who stops by to play a cord or two. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My very first out of town drummer on the stage was from Paris,â&#x20AC;? she said. The years have seen a handful of friends depart. Particularly, the unexpected deaths of Matt Evoy and Barry Morris. Hitchins prizes the breakthrough moments when a young participant conquers

TOWN COUNCILâ&#x20AC;&#x2C6; IN BRIEF
FOR MAYOR TOWNSHIP OF RIDEAU LAKES
R0012892885_0911
News - The following information came from the regular committee-ofthe-whole session held Monday, Sept. 8, 2014.
Voting kits out soon
Vote by mail kits will be mailed out to town residents by Oct. 2. Kerry Costello, director of corporate services/clerk urged any resident who hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t received a kit in their mailbox by Oct. 13 to go to the town hall. Residents can also check if they are on the votersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; list online at: www.voterview.ca or at the town hall. Coun. Dawn Quinn noted business people who rent property in the town are also eligible to vote and should contact the town hall to be added to the list. Those who work out of town can delegate an agent for them to work with the town hall on these items.
Hub request dumped
There was no support from the majority of councillors to forgive $380 in sewer surcharge fees for the Hub pool. The request was made this week in preparation for the non-profitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work to refill the pool after maintenance work. Many councillors felt such preferential treatment would result in more requests so on the grounds of fairness they turned down the request. It costs $380 in water to fill the pool and an additional $380 in sewer surcharge fees. Coun. Lorraine Allen was the lone voice to support the request. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a small amount of money for a big asset,â&#x20AC;? she said.
OP set for Oct. 20
Niki McKernan, planner confirmed the new Official Plan document will be at the council table for final approval on Oct. 20 - the last sitting council meeting before the election. -S.R.

Smiths Falls earn back-to-back wins over Kanata in CCHL action ljweir@metroland.com
Sports – The Smiths Falls Jr. A Bears earned two wins against the Kanata Lasers in a home-and-home series last week in Central Canada Hockey League action. To claim both wins by one goal was something that showed early determination and grit, said Walt Dubas, the team’s assistant coach. “We saw some good signs over the weekend,” he said. “To come back from a 2-0 deficit and win in overtime (Friday night) showed some determination.” Anytime the team is able to string two wins together on a weekend this early in the season, Dubas says that’s a great start. Another bonus this season is that the coaching staff named Taylor Henry as the team’s captain. Last year, the Bears didn’t have a captain. “That is a credit to Taylor. He has been a great leader on and off the ice, and he deserved to be named captain,” said Dubas. “He is captain material and leads by example. And this year he has an opportunity to play with his younger brother, Jared. Carson McCartney and Ryan Duhaime flank Taylor Henry as assistant captains this year.
Smiths Falls 3 Kanata 2 Friday night at home, in front of 369 fans, the Bears clawed back from a 2-0 deficit to take a 3-2 win in overtime against Kanata. At the end of the first period, Kanata held a 2-0 lead on goals from Carter Malette and former Bear Nic Marchand on the power play. In the second, Smiths Falls rallied off the faceoff to score on the power play. Taylor Henry did the scoring with help from Neil Doef and Jared Henry at the 16-second mark. Doef had a chance on a penalty shot nearing the end of the second period but was unsuccessful at the 16:03 mark. In the third, Domenic Camastra tied the rally with help from McCartney at 3:55 to force the overtime. Jared Henry had the winner in the extra period when he scored from Doef at 4:13. These two Bears earned the game’s first and second stars for their efforts, and Brian Wilson had the third star nod for Kanata. Michael Pinios recorded the win in nets for Smiths Falls. “Anytime Michael is in the net, it is a bit of a relief for the boys to know he’s in there and has their back,” noted Dubas.
Smiths Falls 2 Kanata 1 The Bears were in Kanata on Thursday, Sept. 4 where another late goal decided a 2-1 win in Smiths Falls favour. After a scoreless first period, Smiths Falls got its first marker when Darius Gibson scored from Doef and Ean Mendensoon at 3:33 of the second period which held up through the second period. In the third, Arik Bretton tied the score when he got by Pinios at the 8:01 mark. The winner came at the 11:17 mark when Brandon Lesway scored on the power play from Doef and Jared Henry. Pinos recorded his second win in as many starts. Just 134 fans watched this game in Kanata where Doef and Lesway earned game stars for Smiths Falls, with Bretton taking the third star nod for Kanata. Upcoming games The Bears are in Brockville Friday night to take on the Braves at 7:30 p.m. in a game that Dubas says is always a good rivalry. “Anytime we play Brockville or Carleton Place, there are always good crowds and we’re looking forward to seeing what Brockville has got this year.” On Sunday, the boys are on the road to Gloucester for a 2 p.m. start.

Brooke Henderson smashes individual record at WWATC Sports - It may have been an international team championship but it’s hard to ignore her incredible individual accomplishment. Brooke Henderson, 16 of Smiths Falls broke the record low score of 274 (-14) set by Australian superstar Lydia Ko in 2012 – by five strokes – firing a remarkable 269 (-19) over the fourday Women’s World Amateur Team Championship in Karuizawa, Japan. After leading each of the first three days of the competition, Canada had to settle for silver medals after an incredible comeback by Australia, led by the world’s top-ranked women’s amateur Minjee Lee and teammate Sue Oh. The pair shot a combined -13 on the final day on Saturday to emerge with the Espirito Santo Trophy. Their 72-hole total of 547 was two shots better than Canada. Two-time defending champion South Korea took the bronze medal a stroke back of Canada at 550. Henderson, the second ranked women’s amateur in the world, did everything she could to bring Canada
its first WWATC title. She fired rounds of 66, 69, 66 and 68 on two different courses at Karuizawa 72 Golf East. Her teammates were Brittany Marchand of Orangeville, Ont. and Augusta James of Bath, Ont. They were 282 (-6) and 292 (+4) respectively. Only the top two scores each day from the three team members counted toward a country’s overall total. Henderson, the daughter of Dave and Darlene Henderson, was remarkably consistent throughout the championship. She had 23 birdies and just four bogeys in her 72 holes of play. In a press release from the International Golf Federation, which puts on this championship every two years, Henderson said one couldn’t help but tip one’s cap to the champions. “Australia had a great round today, I was really impressed,” she said. “They have very skilled players, including two in the top 10 in the world rankings, which is unbelievable. It’s a little disappointing to finish second but overall we had a really great week and played really well
as a team.” Canada’s top women’s golfer said the experience playing with the best amateur golfers in the world was a thrill. “It is awesome to play with such skilled players who push you to the next level,” said Henderson following the third round. The team championship silver medal and individual champion title puts a bow on another break-through summer for Henderson. She captured several amateur championships this year including the prestigious Porter Cup and Ontario championship and reached the final of the U.S. Women’s Amateur. She won twice on the Canadian women’s professional tour and took home the Jocelyne Bourassa Player of the Year award in the process. She played in several LPGA tournaments as well, finishing as low amateur at both the U.S. Women’s Open and Canadian Pacific Women’s Open. She now looks forward to returning to school where she will complete Grade 12 at SFDCI.

Upper Canada Cyclones host Hockey Day in Kemptville Sept. 20
Men anticipate closing Twilight night By The BOGEYMAN
Sports – The area’s brightest up and coming hockey stars will be on display Saturday, Sept. 20 at the North Grenville Municipal Centre for the Upper Canada Cyclones AAA Hockey Day in Kemptville. The annual event, which will showcase five different Cyclones teams, has traditionally been held in Westport in the past but this is the first year in Kemptville. “We moved to Kemptville this year because it’s closer to the areas we draw kids from and there’s a nice facility in Kemptville,” explained Upper Canada Cyclones’ Louis Armstrong. “We thought it would be a great venue and more palatable for families to come out.” The hockey association, a member of the AAA Ontario East Minor Hockey League, draws players not only from North Grenville, Greely, Metcalfe, Manotick and Osgoode, but also from Merrickville, Smiths Falls and Morrisburg. Five different Cyclones teams will take on a number of different associations within the AAA level. “It’s (day) a way to showcase the different levels in our organization. We have minor bantam all the way to major midget and some of our players have been drafted into the CCHL (Central Canada Hockey League),” Armstrong said. “Our major peewee players will try and be drafted this year and we have two younger teams who serve as development teams for the
older ages.” The day’s festivities kick off at 9:30 a.m. with opening ceremonies, followed immediately by the 9:35 a.m. start of a minor bantam showdown between the Ottawa Valley Titans and Cyclones. At 11:30 a.m., the major bantam Cyclones will take on the Ottawa Senators and then teams will take a break to take in a Kemptville 73’s Jr. A hockey game versus the Brockville Braves. Throughout the day, a bake sale, silent auction and other merchandise will be raffled off, which Armstrong said will go to support the teams. “They will help out with (purchasing) extra ice for tournaments or whatever teams need,” he stated. Play reconvenes at 5 p.m. with a game between the major peewee Cyclones and the Ottawa 67’s. At 6:30 p.m., the minor midget Ottawa Senators will take on the Cyclones, followed by the major midget CIH versus the Cyclones. The day will wrap up with the closing ceremonies at 10:20 p.m. Armstrong encourages the public to come out and watch some great hockey Sept. 20. “We want to attract more crowds...and so players from the minor hockey associations can come with their parents and see what they can strive for,” he said.

Sports - A correction needs to be made to last week’s Thursday Night Men’s Twilight report. It was our friends at Hank’s Tire who sponsored that evening’s golf, and Hank’s Tire continues to be one of our biggest supporters. I apologize for the error. The Sept. 4 edition of Twilight belonged to Blair and Son. It was a scramble and with everyone getting their rounds in for the closing on Sept. 20, it was great turn out. The Campbells were back, with Murray, Andrew, and Ken getting some support from Bruno Patti, Ray Blair, and Don Ross to take honors on the front nine. Bob and Ben Mulrooney, along with Rafael Shew, Mike Ross, and Dennis Koluk posted the low score on the back side.

Crown and Pumpkin Studio Tour to unfold next month in Mississippi Mills Community – Mark your calendar for the 18th anniversary of the ever popular Crown & Pumpkin Studio Tour, Thanksgiving weekend (Oct. 11, 12 and 13). The tour runs Saturday, Sunday and Monday from 10 a.m. through 5 p.m. and features 26 of the finest artists and artisans you’ll see anywhere. Once again, the ladies auxiliary of the Almonte Legion will host the increasingly popular luncheon on all three days from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Enjoy a complete lunch or select from the á la carte menu while you plan your tour route for the afternoon. From humble beginnings in 1996, the Crown & Pumpkin Studio Tour emerged from its predecessor venue that was sponsored by the Ramsay Township arts and recreation committee. The Crown & Pumpkin moniker is derived from the former Ramsay Township crest. The crown is a reference to the United Empire Loyalists, many of whom settled in the area, while the pumpkin is a symbol of the rich agricultural heritage of the region. The name was deemed original and catchy and sounds like a pub you might encounter in a rural village. Originally centered in Clayton, the tour has grown to include artists from Mississippi Mills atlarge. Admission is free. The tour folder will be widely available at local shops and public loca-

Windsor-built 1953 Dodge Regent found in Ontario was Dave’s automotive acquisition: a 2-tone and all-original 1953 Dodge Regent four-door sedan looking just like new. That car is now in Leamington and only 32 miles from the Chrysler factory where it was built 61 years ago. The Regent was the top-ofthe-line Canadian Dodge with a wheelbase of 114 inches and a flathead six cylinder engine with 218 cubic inches cranking out 97 horsepower. The McCormick Dodge has a 3-speed manual transmission with gearshift lever mounted on the steering column (“three on the tree” we used to say). The interior has now been re-upholstered in the same style as original. All Canadian-built
Dodges in 1953 were mounted on a Plymouth chassis, which makes it easier than ever to find replacement parts. All Dodge models were completely restyled for 1953 and this was the first year that Dodge had a curved one-piece windshield. These cars had a reputation for dependability and good value for the money. Forster Motors was the Dodge-DeSoto dealer in Leamington in 1953 in a building still standing at the southeast corner of Nelson and Wellington. I photographed Dave’s Dodge in a building at the Leamington fairgrounds occupied by Legacy Auctions, a business owned and operated by Dave and Liz. The license plate on the Dodge fits the business: HYESTBID. I’m always looking for more stories. Email billsherk@sympatico.ca or write Bill Sherk, 25 John St., P.O. Box 255, Leamington, Ont. N8H 3W2.

Earlier this year, Dave and Liz McCormick of Leamington drove to eastern Ontario with Liz’s brother-in-law, Don Sadler and his wife Louann. Their destination: Fitzroy Harbour on the Ottawa River, where Don grew up. After they arrived, the two women went shopping and the two men decided to do some sightseeing. Later that day, Dave phoned Liz: “Honey, I bought a car.” “That’s nice,” said Liz, thinking Dave had bought another model car for his collection. “Honey, this is a REAL car!” Liz said something like: “Oh no!” The two men took their wives to see what Dave had bought. They drove slowly down a dirt road on private property where rusting hulks of old cars could be seen on either side. Now Liz was thinking the worst. But when they met the man who lived there and were shown into a building filled with restored cars, Liz began to relax. And there in front of them

Easy grilled brunch burritos make for fun meal anytime Lifestyle – This makes a fun meal to serve outside because the foil keeps them warm until serving and catches any drips.

Debunking a few popular myths regarding vehicles DUNLOP HEARING AID SPECIALIST
Car Counsellor BRIAN TURNER
any other business, manufacturing and selling parts is a matter of supply and demand. Vehicles that didn’t enjoy stellar sales records when they were new often see their parts’ availability drop off dramatically after only a few years past their final production run. But it’s not always bad news. Often, non OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) suppliers will pick up the slack, especially on common repair parts and usually (but not always) at a lower price. There’s always the option of used parts obtained through salvage yards or auto recyclers. And of course there are our favourite webbased classified ad sites such as eBay or Kijiji. If it’s a serious problem, I’m sure there’s some type of warning system to let me know. As much as technology is advancing automobiles to the point where we can be completely oblivious to the task (aren’t some of us like that anyway?), vehicles still need some intelligent tender loving care to
make it, don’t risk it or at least have someone get out and act as a spotter to let you know what’s happening. I’m not sure if this is the right fluid but oil is oil, right? Put the wrong fluid in almost any under-hood reservoir and you risk some very expensive bills. The most popular and expensive mistake is adding engine or transmission oil to brake fluid reservoirs. Brake systems are full of rubber components and seals and when engine or any other crude based oil comes into contact with that rubber it will cause it to swell and then deteriorate. Just a few ounces of oil added to a brakemaster cylinder can ruin some very expensive components. Adding the wrong transmission fluid can cause slipping or mis-shifts or internal damage. A few minutes with the owner’s manual and a trip to your local autoparts store can save a bundle of cash. If you have any questions, opinions, or stories on anything automotive please drop me a line, [By email to emc@perfprint.ca or directly to bjoeturner@hotmail.com listing ‘Question for the Car Counsellor’ on the subject line or by post to Record News Communications, 5 Lorne St., P.O.

allow them to live up to the task we bought them for. Check engine lights won’t let you know when your engine’s air filter is dirty and while tire pressure monitoring systems are great at letting you know if you have a soft tire, they won’t tell you when it’s time to rotate them or if you have an alignment problem wearing them out. I recently learned of a car owner who was driving a 15 year-old car that had developed a serious steering symptom. Rather than getting it checked out, this person just kept driving until one day the steering locked up during a curve. Fortunately the driver survived but the car didn’t. When comprehensive vehicle inspections are offered by almost every service shop at reasonable prices, getting your ride inspected twice a year or so can go a long way to protecting your investment and more importantly your safety. My friend made it down that, through that, over that narrow/rough/ flooded path/road/rut with his/her car so I shouldn’t have any problem. This myth leads to more broken axles, dented oil pans, and mangled exhaust systems than any other. Vehicles have considerably different capabilities when it comes to travelling over tough road conditions and even the same makes and models can react differently depending on cargo and passenger loads. If you don’t think your ride can

Lifestyle – There are still more than a few automotive myths out there that can lead to a host of misunderstandings, troubles, and even some unnecessary expenses. In no particular order, here are some of the ones I run into from time to time. If it’s a safety item or recall, it must be covered by the manufacturer. While all automakers, (in the interest of their continued existence), do their best to keep customers happy, there are limits. Recalls, whether voluntary or government-ordered do not have to be paid for by the automaker. They are often divided into different categories by different carmakers. Some are referred to as safety recalls (highest priority) others are referred to as campaigns or special policy and can involve such non-safety items as radio controls or emission systems. If your vehicle is still within the terms of its base warranty, any callback from the manufacturer will likely be covered (including parts and labour). Other programs may have time and mileage limits so be sure to read those notices carefully. If you purchased your vehicle secondhand, make sure its maker has your name and address on file so you can receive notification by mail in case of a recall. Carmakers must maintain a supply of repair and maintenance parts on hand for at least 20 years. Like
MERA prepares to kick off Sunday Schoolhouse Concert Series Sept. 14 Arts – Danny Sullivan has done it again and put together an amazing Sunday Schoolhouse Concert Series for the fall. Read on and order your tickets early as word is spreading about the quality of the performers Sullivan has managed to bring to MERA’s Schoolhouse once again. Marie-Lynn Hammond: Sept. 14 at 2 p.m. Marie-Lynn Hammond has been called one of Canada’s best songwriters by none other than Estelle Klein, a cofounder of the Mariposa Folk Festival, and Gary Cristal, founder of the Vancouver Folk Music Festival. Cofounder of Stringband, the seminal Canadian folk group and indie-record pioneers, Hammond is known for her unique voice, her dynamic stage presence, and her brilliant songs, which range from wickedly funny to hauntingly personal – in both official languages. While she was recording Pegasus, her fifth album, Hammond lost one of her sisters to cancer, and after the album’s release in early 2003 she withdrew from the music scene for several years. Just as she was about to start performing once more, a major accident left her with a visual disability, forcing her once again to regroup. But Hammond is back performing and writing at the top of her form again, with not one, but two new CDs launched in 2013: HoofBeats, a collection

Touring as everything from a duo to a quintet, McKhool and Laliberté draw from this collective of master musicians to bring Sultans of String to community, festival and intermediate/high school audiences around the world including the Celtic Connections Festival in the UK, Birdland jazz Club in NYC, Mariposa Folk Festival, National Arts Centre, and performing with the Toronto Symphony Orchestra at Roy Thompson Hall.

piece is sure to keep garnering attention far beyond the traditional bluegrass fanbase. “The Slocan Ramblers put on one of the most vibrant shows of acoustic music I’ve seen in some time. It’s rare for Canadians (especially young Canadians) to play this music with such authority, passion and yet ability for experimentation. Chops galore, and a handsome bunch of fellas” – Tom Power, host of CBC’s Deep Roots and Radio 2 Morning The Sultans of String: Nov. 30 at 2 p.m. MERA is proud to present The Sultans of String duo of Chris McKhool and Kevin Laliberté at MERA. JUNO Award nominees and “Canada’s ambassadors of musical diversity” Sultans of String thrill their audiences with their global sonic tapestry of Spanish flamenco, Arabic folk, Cuban rhythms, and French manouche gypsy-jazz, celebrating musical fusion and human creativity with warmth and virtuosity. Fiery violin dances with rumbaflamenco guitar while a funk bass lays down unstoppable grooves. Acoustic strings meet with electronic wizardry to create layers and depth of sound, while world rhythms excite audiences to their feet with the irresistible need to dance. The band is riding a wave of success from their sold out Yalla Yalla! and MOVE Canadian CD release tours,

Sultans of String will perform in the MERA Sunday Schoolhouse Concert Series Nov. 30 at 2 p.m. to their national features on CTV’s CanadaAM and CBC’s Canada Live, and their quadruple nomination for the 2012 Canadian Folk Music Awards, winning World Group of the Year. Their CDs soared to number one across Canada on Top Ten national radio charts, and Sultans of String won the award for Best Variety Act from Festivals & Events Ontario as well as the International Songwriting Competition! The buzz extends into the US, with
acclaimed promoter David Wilkes (Emmylou Harris, Bela Fleck, Jesse Cook) now representing the band. Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal recipient and 2009 JUNO Award Nominee, six-string violinist/bandleader Chris McKhool grew up in a house bursting with music and diversity. His paternal Makhoul grandparents immigrated to Canada from Lebanon in the early 1900s. His Egyptian-born mother is a piano
and theory teacher. Growing up Chris was fed a steady diet of delicious musicality along with Middle Eastern cuisine and violin lessons. When McKhool (who has performed with Jesse Cook and Pavlo) first heard founding guitarist Kevin Laliberté’s rumba rhythm their musical mind-meld created the Sultans of String’s sound – the intimate and playful relationship between violin and the flamenco guitar. Sultans of String includes such amazing

BarnDoor Productions celebrates 20 years of community theatre sometimes things happen. The opening production of their 20th anniversary season falls into at least two of those danger categories: artistically, it is a play that pushes the company to the very edge and beyond; financially, bringing in a show that is hot and fresh off Broadway is a costly affair. It will take an artistic success to make the play a financial success. BarnDoor Productions (BDP) feel that the risk is worth it because David Ives’ Venus In Fur is one of the most exciting, entertaining, shocking and, yes, dangerous plays to hit Broadway in a long time. The New York Times said it was “as funny as any play currently on Broadway,” but went on to say it “... is also something darker, stranger and altogether more delicious.” It is a comedy, but it plays on so many levels that rehearsals are filled with “Oh, my god!” moments, as new layers reveal themselves.
We’ll say it out front, loud and clear: Venus In Fur contains strong language and sexual content. Once we get past that, it is powerful, evocative, startling – and funny. David Ives’ experience as a playwright lets him turn the 90-minute show on a sentence, from comic to dramatic and back to comic, pulling performers and audience along on a wild ride. It is the kind of play that comes along once in a performer’s career and, even at this early date in the rehearsal process, the two community players who have taken on the challenge are being asked to push themselves and take risks that go far beyond what “amateur” players are normally asked to take. That’s the dangerous part – but it’s also what pushes this play beyond the usual, into the truly unusual. Ives has imagined a story of a playwright obsessed with a classic erotic novel and his search for the perfect actress for it. Out of a storm comes someone who
PARK IT!
turns his ideas, his mind and his emotions upside down. It’s a story of power, possession, eroticism and the relationship between them. And, it’s a comedy. Let’s not forget that. Venus In Fur will run Oct. 17, 18, 23, 24, 25 at 8 p.m. and Oct. 19 and 26 at 2 p.m. at Full Circle Theatre. Film Night International returns for a fourth season at Full Circle Theatre on Wednesday, Sept. 24, with The Lunchbox (filmnightinternational.blogspot. ca). Full Circle Theatre’s first musical
concert of the season will be on Oct. 2, when internationally acclaimed guitarist Don Ross, with special guest Thomas Leeb will appear. Tickets for that are at Shadowfax, 67 Foster St., Perth or 613267-6817. And auditions for BDP’s February show August: Osage County will be on Monday, Nov. 17. Information on all of the above, video and photos from 19 seasons, subscription information on BDP’s 20th anniversary season and more can be found at www.barndoorproductions.ca Submitted by BarnDoor Productions.

Arts – Perth’s BarnDoor Productions has never backed away from a challenge. In their first two seasons, with no facility of their own, they toured large productions around Lanark County. By their third season, they were spearheading the creation of Perth’s first full-time theatre space in 50 years. They produced a decade-long series of outdoor classics, culminating in a production of what is probably the world’s greatest (and most difficult) play, Hamlet. Between 2009 and 2011, they purchased a car wash and turned it into the intimate, comfortable and universallypraised Full Circle Theatre. That’s all very exciting, but it’s also dangerous, financially, artistically and even, sometimes, physically, like the night when Romeo’s sword snapped in his fight with Tybalt, sending a glittering shard of steel slicing across the stage. When art is good, it’s on the ragged edge, and when it’s on the ragged edge,

Perth’s BarnDoor Productions doesn’t back away from dangerous risks with their shows, such as 2005’s Hamlet (with Brant Daniluk, Sean Jacklin, Chris Sleeth). Their 20th anniversary season opens in October with Venus In Fur.
Make healthy food choices each day Community – Children and youth spend hours at school, recreation centres, sports fields and arenas. These spaces play an important role in their nutrition and health so it’s important to think about the food and beverages available there. ‘Everyday foods’, the healthiest choices, include plain water, vegetables, fruit, whole grains, milk, meat and alternatives like fortified soy beverages, legumes, nuts and eggs. ‘Sometimes foods’ are great to enjoy at special family occasions. Keep reading for ideas that could help make the healthy food choice the easy choice at play and at school. Community and school
vending machines offering only ‘sometimes foods’ like chips, chocolates and pop make it tough to make a wise choice when children and youth are hungry or thirsty. Decision makers can meet with vendors and food wholesalers to find nutritious, safe and affordable products. Operators can ensure adequate water fountains. Sports events that wrap up with cookies and fruit punch make it difficult to learn the lesson that healthy foods lead to healthy bodies and minds. When pressed for time it is easier to pick up prepared foods, often higher in added sugars, salt and fat. Try sharing the load when planning for healthy snacks at community
or school-based sporting events. “Communities, families, health care providers and schools can work together to make everyday food choices outside the home the normal way to go”, says Marie Traynor, public health nutritionist. “We can role model healthy eating and work towards creating environments and places that support it.” For more information contact the Leeds, Grenville, and Lanark District Health Unit’s Health Action Line at 1-800-660-5853 (613-345-5685) or visit our website at www.healthunit.org/ nutrition.
