Supporting CHEO with poutine John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

This Saturday, May 2, you can enjoy some great poutine while helping to support the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO).

It’s all happening at Pong’s Poutine, the chip wagon located on Carp Road beside Ritchie’s Feed and Seed between Hazeldean Road and highway 417.

This “Chips & Cheese for CHEO� fundraiser is a way for Pong’s Poutine owners Ata Iemsisanith and Stephanie So to give back to CHEO for the care provided there for their twin daughters, MacKenzie and MacKayla who were born prematurely, with MacKenzie weighing only 1.5 pounds and MacKayla weighing only 2.3 pounds. This happened in Dec. 2013 and while MacKayla was discharged in April 2014, her sister MacKenzie only came home last January after 13 months in hospital.

And even now, Ata and Stephanie have turned their family room into a hospital room with medical equipment

set up there including home oxygen, bipap machine, feeding machine and a machine to monitor oxygen levels as MacKenzie remains under constant care including nurses that come in overnight to allow the parents to get some sleep.

Both MacKenzie and MacKayla are followed very closely by CHEO with cardiology, respirology, opthamolgy and complex care programs as well as CHEO�s neonatal follow-up program.

So, Ata and Stephanie want to pay back CHEO in a small way for all of the compassion, care and understanding which CHEO has and is continuing to show for their twin daughters.

This Saturday, May 2, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Pong’s Poutine will be offering a specialty poutine that is not on the regular menu. All of the proceeds from its purchase will be going to CHEO. In addition, there will be donation boxes set up for those who might not be in the poutine mood.

All those who make a purchase or give a donation will have their name entered into a draw for a gift basket.

Everyone in the community is urged to drop by Pong’s Poutine at 2079 Carp Road this Saturday, May 2 between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. and help Ata and Stephanie give back to CHEO, a place that has given them so much since the birth of their twin daughters in Dec. 2013.

Pong’s Poutine fundraiser Pong’s Poutine is named after Ata himself whose nickname is “Pong,� a name that he received in his youth as he always seemed to be bouncing around like a ping pong ball. The name has stuck to him over the years and so it only made sense to call the business “Pong’s Poutine.�

It was on Monday, Dec. 2, 2013 that Ata and Stephanie’s long journey with their twin girls began. They had gone for a routine ultrasound for their expected twin girls who were almost at 27 weeks along their way to birth.

But complications arose and an emergency c-section was performed so that by mid-afternoon that day, Ata and Stephanie were parents of twin girls, albeit very tiny ones.

Both required ventilation as their lungs had not fully developed.

When MacKenzie was only a few weeks old, she was transferred to CHEO as she needed to have a heart surgery to correct the flow of blood in her heart. She recovered quickly and soon was sent back to the General Hospital where her sister was.

Then, both were soon transferred back to CHEO so that MacKayla could have the same heart surgery. But this time, both twins remained at CHEO. Both had what doctors considered normal prematurity issues that would correct themselves with time.

MacKayla was discharged from CHEO in April 2014 with MacKenzie remaining there. She remained a puzzle John Curry/Metroland for the doctors at CHEO. After various tests and more Ata Iemsisanith of Pong’s Poutine on Carp Road in Stittsville stands doctors becoming involved, it was finally concluded that outside the chip wagon where he will be serving a special poutine this MacKenzie had a severe case of bronchial pulmonary disSaturday, May 2 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. with all of the proceeds going to order or prematurity of the lungs, a condition that would only be fixed with time. the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO).

It was on Dec. 2, 2014 that MacKenzie came home for the first time to celebrate her first birthday. It was only a day trip but it was her first time out of hospital. Then, in January 2015, MacKenzie came home for good.

Ata and Stephanie cannot say enough about the quality of care received at CHEO. “Every single person we had contact with showed us nothing but compassion, care and understanding,� they state. “Despite the seriousness of the situation we knew that our girls were in the best possible place and that they would receive super care and we were right.�

That’s why they want to give back to CHEO in some way and that’s why this Saturday’s “Chips & Cheese for CHEO� is happening at Pong’s Poutine on Carp Road from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Any support would be greatly appreciated.

Mayor’s Report

How We’re Cleaning Up the Ottawa River

By Jim Watson Since I was elected Mayor in 2010, my top environmental priority has been to clean up the Ottawa River. I believe this would be the perfect gift for future generations as Canada approaches its 150th birthday in 2017. Having recently announced that we have secured funding from my Federal and Provincial counterparts, to make this dream a reality, I am excited to share with you our progress so far and what’s to come.

Members of the Board of Directors of the Goulbourn Museum are, from left, John Curry, Ken Cownley, Phil Sweetnam, Casey McLaughlin, Linda Preston, Keith Hobbs, Frank Argue and Bram Blenk. Missing from the picture is Board member Glendon Moore.

New member on Board of Directors Special to the News

The Goulbourn Museum has a new member on its Board of Directors.

Casey McLaughlin, a Richmond resident, was elected to the Museum’s Board of Directors at its annual general meeting on Thursday evening, April 23.

Her election as a Director brings the number of Directors on the Board to eight. Museum bylaws permit up to ten members on the Board of Directors.

Other members of the Board of Directors, all of whom have time remaining on their three-year terms, are Linda Preston, Keith Hobbs, Phil Sweetnam, Frank Argue, Glendon Moore, Ken Cownley and John Curry.

McLaughlin brings to the Museum’s Board of Directors credentials that include serving as the executive director/curator of the Yukon Transportation Museum from 2006 to last November. Prior to that, she had worked as an operations assistant at the Yukon Transportation Museum for three years. She has taken several Canadian Conservation Institute workshops.

In 2014, McLaughlin received the Yukon Heritage Awards Lifetime Achievement Award acknowledging her professional accomplishments, extensive volunteerism and personal dedication to the Yukon heritage field.

At the annual general meeting, Museum Board chair Linda Preston

recited some of the accomplishments achieved by the Museum in 2014 including a 166 percent increase in programming for older adults, a 23 percent increase in on site visitation, increases in Facebook fans, Twitter followers, blog views and Pinterest followers, and over 200 mentions in the community newspaper. The Goulbourn Museum also had 557 artefacts donated in 2014 and Museum volunteers contributed 1,736 hours of volunteer effort to the Museum over the year.

She noted the Museum’s new bilingual website and added that there would be new signage on the Museum building at Stanley’s Corners this spring.

The chair also noted that the Museum is celebrating its 25th anniversary year in 2015, with the event to be marked with an old fashioned birthday bash on Father’s Day in June. That celebration will include the launch of a new exhibit regarding the history of some local street names.

Museum Board treasurer Phil Sweetnam reported that the Museum’s auditors have found the Museum to be “exceptionally well run” with good financial controls in place.

Those at the annual general meeting approved a proposed amendment to the Museum’s bylaws that will allow Board officers to remain in a position for up to three one-year terms.

This had been restricted to two oneyear terms in the existing bylaws.

Board Director Bram Blenk, in presenting this proposed bylaw change, said that the change would give more stability and flexibility to the Board in the selection of its officers. He noted that the previous two-year restriction was felt to be too short, with an incumbent in the position just learning the job fully before having to leave it. The change allows for a third year in a position before the incumbent has to vacate it.

Diana Carter, executive director of the Ottawa Museum Network, who was present at the annual general meeting, said in some remarks at the meeting that the Ottawa Museum Network brings together representatives from the various community museums in the city of Ottawa with the organization working to benefit these museums such as with marketing initiatives.

She mentioned the recentlylaunched online archives collection as well as the Inquiring Minds project of the Ottawa Museum Network which sees students experience a week-long visit to a museum.

She also noted that the Ottawa Museum Network is undertaking a storage needs assessment for community museums and other heritage organizations such as historical societies as storage space is a challenge for all of the museums.

Kathryn Jamieson, curator/manager of the Goulbourn Museum, is the current chair of the Ottawa Museum Network.

Ottawa is a city of almost 1 million people, and our roads and sewers are feeling the pressure in order to protect our communities, green spaces, and waterways, we need to upgrade sewers and pipes that in some cases are over 140 years old.

In the older parts of Ottawa, storm water and household sewage mix together in the same pipe, called a combined sewer. During heavy rainfall, this older part of the system is designed to avoid flooding by sending excess water into the Ottawa River. The unfortunate result is that some untreated sewage flows directly into the River as well.

Before I took office, in 2006, there were annual combined sewage overflow volumes of 1.09B litres into the Ottawa River. That’s the equivalent of 436 Olympic-sized swimming pools per year. Spills like these add to high bacteria counts in the Ottawa River, which can negatively impact the health of our river and our beaches.

In the nation’s capital, we cannot accept having sewage flow into the river behind Parliament nor see frequent pipe bursts in our neighbourhoods.

In 2009, we started working on a set of infrastructure projects called the Ottawa River Action Plan. The action plan is focused on protecting the quality of the Ottawa River by reducing the volume of combined sewage overflows and reducing the impact of stormwater on the Ottawa River.

The City partnered with the federal and provincial governments to significantly enhance key parts of our wastewater infrastructure. This has included maximizing our use of the capacity available in our existing sewer system, better pipe monitoring, separating storm sewers from sanitary sewers and measures to reduce the risk of basement flooding. We also completed a lot of sewer work as a part of other road projects to ensure we did not need to tear up streets more than once.

The progress to date has been remarkable. These efforts have reduced sewage overflow volumes up to 80 percent in recent years. These improvements are also helping to ensure the consistent delivery of drinking water to our homes and reduce the risk of basement flooding.

With all three levels of government having committed the remaining funds to complete the most significant remaining project under the Ottawa River Action Plan, called the Combined Sewage Storage Tunnel. This project will greatly expand our ability to store combined sewer overflow that can then be treated and returned safely to the Ottawa River. When this project is complete, Ottawa’s sewage overflows will be dramatically reduced to only one or two occurrences in most years.

We are moving ahead swiftly on this project, which will be undertaken in summer 2015 as part of the Confederation Line LRT project. We will ensure the downtown core is free from any disruption that would impact the 2017 celebrations, and work towards full completion of the project in 2019.

Getting Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s slice of the pie

W

ith both the federal and provincial governments showing their hands when it comes to transit infrastructure funding last week it will be incumbent on city council to ensure Ottawa gets its slice of the pie.

With planning efforts in full swing for Phase 2 of Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s light rail system, both senior levels of government flashed the cash for municipal transit projects. The federal government will be establishing stable, regular funding that will reach $1 billion per year by 2019. How that money will be doled out remains to be seen, but one would imagine there will be a portion of that available to Ottawa.

The province, meanwhile, announced in its 201516 budget that it will be spending $31.5 billion in the next decade on transit, nearly half of that sum outside the Greater Toronto-Hamilton area. This news came days after Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park committed to footing the whole bill for the $1.6-billion light rail project planned for Mississauga and Brampton.

With so much money whirling around for transit, the onus now falls to Mayor Jim Watson and city

councillors to ensure that when the bill comes in for the next phase of Ottawaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s transit system, that residents arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stuck with an undue portion of the bill.

Watson has said that it would be â&#x20AC;&#x153;idealâ&#x20AC;? for another level of government to pick up the tab for new rails running to Orleans, Bayshore and Algonquin College, but the efforts to secure that funding must start now and must be relentless.

Ottawa has forged ahead boldly in the past decade with transit plans, securing funding from the federal and provincial governments, but also helping to pay its own way. Other cities in Ontario have kicked and screamed about the dire need for better transit and the lack of means to pay for it. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve proven at least a bit successful in getting it.

There is a certain pride in paying for something yourself, but it can also make one feel like a sucker for not begging for a free lunch. Toronto has shown little pride in grovelling for money from the province, and it also has lower transit fares than Ottawa.

With so much money now on the table, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time Ottawa demanded its fair share.

Anthem deserves appropriate occasions

A

lthough we usually take it for granted and mostly pay no attention to it, every once in a while the national anthem makes the news.

Sometimes it is because someone finds a word or two offensive and recommends a change. Given how easily people take offence these days, it happens quite frequently. Nothing much usually comes of it.

But sometimes the actual singing of the national anthem gets into the news. That usually happens because someone mangles or forgets the words or, as in one memorable U.S. example, makes up a new melody.

This time O Canada is getting attention because hockey playoffs are on and they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t begin until the anthem has been sung. Anthem

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit tacky, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t it, the anthem being used for partisan purposes and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s yet another reason to stop singing it. Over the years, national anthems have been cheapened. Where once the anthem was sung straightforwardly and with a steady pulse, it often becomes, in the wrong hands, a torch song, dripping with phony emotion and lasting forever, evoking not the true north but Las Vegas.

The great anthem singers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Lyndon Slewidge, Roger Doucette in Montreal, the great opera singer Robert Merrill in New York â&#x20AC;&#x201C; were never guilty of that sort of thing, but in far too many cases, the anthem has become a kind of performance piece, and all you want is for it to be over.

when, as so often happens here, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s necessary to have two anthems.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not surprising that the anthem has been juiced up of late. The anthem was becoming routine. But the reason it was becoming routine is because it was being performed on routine occasions â&#x20AC;&#x201C; at every game, important or not. Sometimes it is sung at school concerts, at local government meetings. Once I heard it sung when the Parliament Hill Christmas lights were turned on.

Fortunately, they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play it at the movies any more.

The thing is, when we play or sing the anthem at trivial occasions, what is left for the important occasions?

The anthem needs to have its dignity reinforced, its sense of occasion restored. At the right moment and in the right hands, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fine anthem.

The only way to save it from itself is to stop singing it, except when it really matters.

City of Ottawa Councillor Reports

By Shad Qadri, Councillor Ward Six Stittsville City of Ottawa

April 24, 2015 New Splash Pad to keep the community cool Listening to community requests I have been able to receive support from the City for plans this summer to see a new Splash Pad opened in our community in Pioneer Plains Park in Jackson Trails. The City will be comple ng the tender process this month and construc on is scheduled for comple on as early as the end of June. The feature will be a Hydraulic Splash Pad with 6 Spray Features and it will be the first in the City to have a solar powered diverter system to manage the water discharged to the City’s sewer system. This new feature in Pioneer Plains Park will be the third Splash Pad in S sville and I will be exploring op ons to bring more splash pads to other areas of the S sville community.

Roundabouts – their effec veness and how to navigate one A roundabout is an intersec on where traffic travels around a central island in a counter-clockwise direc on. Vehicles entering or exi ng the roundabout must yield to vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians.

JOHN CURRY/METROLAND

Roundabouts are designed to promote a con nuous, circular flow of traffic. Drivers need only yield to traffic before entering a roundabout; if there is no traffic in the roundabout; drivers are not required to stop. Because traffic is constantly flowing through the intersec on, drivers don’t have the incen ve to speed up to try and “beat the light,” like they might at a tradi onal intersec on.

At the women’s breakfast hosted by the Catholic Women’s League (CWL) of Holy Spirit Parish in Stittsville last Saturday are, from left, Claudette Langdon, president-elect of the Holy Spirit CWL; Lynne Hewman, president of the Holy Spirit CWL; Sister Rosemary O’Toole of The Upper Room Home of Prayer who was the guest speaker at the breakfast; and Monsignor Joseph Muldoon, pastor of Holy Spirit Catholic Parish.

Where long-term costs are considered, roundabouts eliminate hard-

Sens pointed to as example john.curry@metroland.com

It was a talk about an eight-fold path to a spiritual life. Pretty remote from the game of hockey. Or so you would think!

But Sister Rosemary O’Toole of The Upper Room Home of Prayer, in her presentation to those at the Catholic Women’s League annual breakfast at the Holy Spirit Catholic Church’s parish hall last Saturday, used the Ottawa Senators and specifically head coach Dave Cameron as examples of what she meant by “mindfulness of the present moment,” one of the eight steps to a spiritual life.

She noted that coach Cameron was urging his player to go out and play each period as the first period and not to worry about the period just past or the period just coming.

“They’re keeping their attention in the present,” Sister O’Toole said about the Senators in their playoff play against the Montreal Canadiens.

Cameron is coaching the Senators as I am coaching you, she told the 120 ladies at the breakfast, urging them to live in the present moment and give their best in that moment, just like coach Cameron urges his players to play their best on each shift on the ice.

This “mindfulness of the present moment” is one of the eight steps that Sister O’Toole says make up the path of a spiritual life.

She said that she was offering “some solid soul food” in outlining these eight aspects of the path to a spiritual life. She noted that these eight aspects can be adapted to every lifestyle, urging those in attendance to “create your own rule of life.”

Besides “mindfulness of the present moment,” these spiritual practices that Sister

O’Toole advocated are 15-30 minutes of prayer daily; “mantra” repetition; leisure; ten minutes a day of spiritual reading; self discipline; work, service and ministry to others; and developing spiritual friendships.

She said that a person should pray regularly every day but that your prayer relationship with God will be unique to you.

“Prayer as you can, not as you think you should,” Sister O’Toole advised.

She urged that people stay in the present moment (mindfulness) and avoid the distraction of going ahead to the future or back to the past.

This allows you to give your full attention to what you are doing in the present.

“Mantra” repetition is another aspect leading to the spiritual life. A mantra is a phrase or prayer to aid concentration in meditation.

Leisure is another aspect that is important in achieving a spiritual life. Leisure breaks in which a person has some fun allow a person to get relaxed and re-focused.

Doing ten minutes of spiritual reading each day is another aspect on the path of a spiritual life. Sister O’Toole said that a person needs spiritual messages in today’s world but such messages are not found easily in today’s secular culture. So reading spiritual books with core teachings is required.

Self-discipline is another important aspect of the path of a spiritual life.

“A little bit of everything is good,” Sister O’Toole said, urging nothing in excess.

Work or service or ministry to others and developing good spiritual friendships are two other aspects of the path of a spiritual life.

At the breakfast, a draw was held for a yellow afghan knitted by Marion Charbonneau which was won by Nancy Szkurhan from Holy Redeemer Parish in Kanata.

Raffle prizes given away included a seascape print, a chiropractic water pillow and a spa basket.

Sister O’Toole is the founder of The Upper Room Home of Prayer in Ottawa which has been teaching spirituality in Ottawa parishes for 31 years now.

Cheshire Cat Pub helping Tysen Jessica Cunha Jessica.cunha@metroland.com

Tysen Lefebvre’s “Mission to a Million” to raise one million dollars for Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario is getting a boost from the Cheshire Cat Pub. And it’s all come about as a result of a stolen Steam Whistle Brewery toboggan sled.

After the Cheshire Cat Pub’s post calling for the return of the stolen toboggan went viral on social media, a special Fedex-delivered package turned up at the restaurant on Tuesday, April 14. It was the stolen toboggan which had been returned by its thieves, along with a $100 donation to Tysen’s Mission to a Million.

The whole viral episode has drawn attention to Tysen Lefebvre and his “Mission to a Million” campaign which he launched in October 2013 after having his own wish to meet actor Adam Sandler granted by Mike-A-Wish Eastern Ontario. His million dollar goal represents the funding of 100 wishes for children.

And now Crystal and Dustin Therrien, owns of the Cheshire Cat Pub at the corner of Richardson Side Road and Carp Road just north of highway 417, are on their own mission to help Tysen reach his goal. They have set a goal of raising $10,000 for Tysen’s campaign, enough to grant a wish to a child.

They are going to raise this money through a raffle in which they are raffling off the stolen sled, a second Steam Whistle sled that Steam Whistle Brewery has donated after hearing about the theft and a gift basket, also donated

by Steam Whistle Brewery.

“We’re going to raffle off 1,000 tickets at $10 a ticket and that pays for one child’s wish through Tysen’s Mission,” said Crystal Therrien of Cheshire Cat Pub. “Your $10 is going towards a really, really worthy cause.”

The raffle will run for as long as it takes to sell the 1,000 tickets.

And this good news and associated publicity could not have come at a better time for Tysen as he is currently in the running for a national Canadian Living Me to We Award.

He has been selected as one of three finalists for this award in the community category.

If he receives the award, he will earn a $1,000 prize that will be donated to his charity of choice which is Make-A-Wish Eastern Ontario through his “Mission to a Million” campaign.

He will also be featured in an article in Canadian Living magazine.

The award is based on the results of online voting which is now underway, ending on Friday, May 8. To vote for Tysen, who lives in Stittsville, in this Canadian Living Me to We Award competition, the link is https://forms. freethechildren.com/?module=metowe/metowe_awards_nominations&cmd .

“He was chosen from all the nominees as one of three finalists in that category,” says his mother Linda Lefebvre. “He is super excited. He’s more excited he’s going to get another $1,000 for his mission than he is for the award.”

Tysen continues to work hard to achieve his million dollar goal for his “Mission to a Million” campaign.

Sacred Heart student starts â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Theodoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Building Businessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

Today itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wooden tool boxes and birdhouses. In the future it may be porches and houses.

At least that the thinking of Sacred Heart Catholic High School grade seven student Theodore McKenzie who right now has a bustling business that he calls â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theodoreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Building Busi-

ness.â&#x20AC;?

Right now, he makes three wooden products: a tool box which sells for $25; a birdhouse which sells for $20; and a locker shelf which costs $5 to buy. All of the items are sold in an unpainted state.

For Theodore, it all began when he made a tool box for a white elephant sale at Guardian Angels Catholic School when he was in grade

six there. This led to him selling some in Merrickville where he received requests for a birdhouse. So he added birdhouses to his product line. As for his third current product, a locker shelf, this arose from his own need. He felt that he needed one for better organization of his own school locker. Once he had made it, friends saw the shelf and wanted one as well. So a locker shelf became one of the products made by his business. It â&#x20AC;&#x153;sort of just happenedâ&#x20AC;? is how Theodore explains this product expansion into locker shelves.

He used his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tools for making his initial products but now he has his own tool bench and tools in the basement where he makes the products. He uses a power saw, a Robertsonhead drill, glue and a sander.

Theodore admits that he loves doing this carpentry work since he started doing it. He sees himself doing more and more products with the business getting bigger as he gets older. Indeed, he sees the day when he will be building porches and even houses. He sees it as his career in the future.

Theodore makes the products as he gets orders for them. He has business cards and has put posters up advertising his business. He finds that men tend to order the tool boxes while women are more likely to order birdhouses. He builds his products on the weekend but despite what orders he may have, he does his school work first and then he set to work making his products. He is currently trying to think about other relatively small products that he could make for the business.

Theodore is currently learning to play the clarinet in music class at Sacred Heart. He opted for the clarinet as he feels that it looks like a recorder and that may make it a little easier to learn how to play.

He likes books, although they usually have something to do with carpentry. He also watches Canadian building icon Mike Holmes on television, finding it to be a good learning experience for his development as a carpenter. Theodore also is learning about hunting and will be taking firearms training so that he can go hunting in the future, perhaps as early as this fall.

Active living in retirement residences It’s no surprise that people who exercise regularly tend to be in better health than those who don’t, with many studies demonstrating just how beneficial physical activity can be—especially for seniors. Given the vital role that physical activity plays in the health of seniors, it’s clear how important it is for older adults to stay active in their later years, as it could mean their prolonged good health and independence. Yet, according to Employment and Social Development Canada, levels of physical activity gradually decrease with age, with only 44% of adults aged 65+ considered even moderately active in Canada.

“We support residents with their fitness goals by providing active living programming that is not only delivered in a relaxed and supportive atmosphere, but tailored to their abilities and preferences,” she says, “When new residents realize how easy and fun it is to get in their daily physical activity, they’re more inclined to participate.”

As Laura Forsyth, Director of Life Enrichment at Chartwell Retirement Residences, explains, organized classes offered by retirement communities provide seniors with a convenient way to exercise.

According to a study conducted by the University of Missouri, seniors living in retirement residences who reported more exercise experienced less physical decline than their peers who reported less exercise, demonstrating just how beneficial retirement living programming can be for a senior’s overall well-being.

At Chartwell Stonehaven, we believe that active living is a critical component of healthy aging. We make it easy for residents to remain physically active and socially engaged so they can enjoy happier, healthier and more vibrant lifestyles.

Our main residence and independent apartments offer a number of active living programs — such as yoga, balance and wellness classes, a walking club, our popular Rhythm N’ Moves class and our new intellectual FitMinds® program — and general recreational activities geared toward improving residents’ physical health.

There may be many reasons why seniors do not exercise regularly, challenges with health and mobility ranking high on that list; however, it’s never too late for seniors to participate in regular exercise, even if it’s from the comfort of a chair. One lifestyle change that studies show often prompt seniors to begin exercising again is a move to retirement living.

will be prepared right on site by Mike Mundell’s Surf & Turf Stores of Kingston. The fish and chips will be served with homemade cole slaw, desserts and beverages. St. Thomas Anglican Church is at the corner of Stittsville Main Street and Carleton Cathcart Street.

Friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere are the hallmarks of every Chartwell community, where residents lead happier, healthier and more fulfilled lives.

The Irish Hills Golf and Country Club keeps it fresh after more than 25 years in the business.

The lush links of the Irish Hills Golf and Country Club have been in your backyard for over 25 years. The family-run business has opened its doors for the 2015 season and is looking forward to welcoming returning members as well as new faces, to the club.

At Irish Hills, people matter. The friendly “Thank you for shopping and knowledgeable and playing lcoal! staff takes the time to forge genuine We have appreciated your business relationships with members. “A club over the last 25 eyars.” member walks into the clubhouse and everybody here tries to get to know their name.” says General Manager, Tricia McBride.

Irish Hills was originally conceived by McBride’s father, Ken in 1989. The 27-hole course was carefully designed to allow maximum space so golfers can play at their own pace. The peaceful course lets members slow down, enjoy the fresh country air, and maybe even spot a heron roaming near one of the ponds.

The newly appointed Director of Golf, Ryan Hale, is enthusiastic about this year’s season.

An avid golfer since the age of eight, Hale is eager to encourage the next generation of golfers. “We have some kids starting at the age of four or five,” says Hale. “We teach them the rules and etiquette of the game and then let them try it out.” Hale encourages members to teach kids their techniques and tricks, and the Men’s and Ladies Leagues often offers to invite kids to play nine holes.

This year, Irish Hills is offering their first ever summer golf camp for children. For ages six to 12, the camp will be held from July 20 – 24, 2015; the camp will be offered to kids aged 12 – 16 from July 27 – 31, 2015. Over the course of one week, kids will learn the basics of golf, improve their skill set and have lots of fun! During the week, there will be outdoor activities like badminton, soccer, volleyball, and indoor activities such crafts, golf etiquette and more.

For the over-18 crowd, Irish Hills is pleased to offer a new Twilight Membership. “It’s perfect for guys like me who work during the day,” says Hale. For $495, members can play the any time after 3:00 pm, seven days a week. “You can play until you can’t see your golf ball anymore,” laughs Hale. It’s hard to talk about Irish Hills without mentioning the restaurant, which Don’t spend precious re-opens on Friday,

This year marks many exciting changes to Irish Hills. For one, they have introduced an environmentally-friendly way of combating mosquitos: bat houses! They have also launched a new interactive website (www.irishhillsgolf.com) complete with a regularly updated For a local golf experience that will calendar of events and the Online Tee Sheet, which allows members appeal to the whole family, visit to book their tee time from the comfort of their own home! the Irish Hills Golf and Country While some things change, others remain the same.

Lion Al Zoschke becomes â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Knight of Lake Joeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Stittsville District Lions Club member Al Zoschke has been knighted.

No, not by Queen Elizabeth making him Sir Al Zoschke but rather by the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) and the CNIB Lake Joseph Centre, making him a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Knight of Lake Joe.â&#x20AC;?

This honour goes to those who have shown outstanding support for the provision of services and programs for the blind.

Stittsville Lion Al Zoschke has been instrumental over the years in organizing and participating in the Stittsville Dis-

trict Lions Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s White Cane campaign. In this campaign, White Cane pins are distributed in return for a donation with the funds going to help the CNIB and its programs.

One of the CNIBâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s initiatives in support of the blind is the Lake Joseph Centre which is a summer camp for the blind.

Attending this camp provides an opportunity for those who are blind to become more independent while also enjoying a summertime vacation.

At the Stittsville District Lions Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting on Wednesday, April 22, Lion Al Zoschke was presented with a certificate naming him a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Knight of Lake Joe.â&#x20AC;?

CNIBâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lake Joseph Centre,

commonly known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lake Joe,â&#x20AC;? is a fully accessible lakefront facility located in the Muskoka region of Ontario. It provides a blend of recreation and vision rehabilitation in a safre inclusive environment where guide dogs are welcome. The Lake Joseph Centre is located on over 12.5 acres of waterfront property on a corner of Lake Joseph. The CNIB is a volunteer agency and charitable organization dedicated to assisting Canadians who are blind or living with vision loss. Founded in 1918 to assist soldiers who had been blinded in the First World War, CNIB has over the years expanded its programs and service to include research, public edu-

cation, rehabilitation counselling and training and advocacy for people living with a sight disability. Hockey icon Wayne Gretzky is a supporter of the CNIB and its work to help those who are blind or visually impaired.

His Gretzky Golf Classic, which was established in 1981, has raised more than $2 million to help the blind. In Sept. 1990 when Wayne Gretzkyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s autobiography was launched, it marked the first time that a major publication was published simultaneously in print and braille. A portion of the print sales of the book was donated to the CNIB.

HENDERSON BRINGS SECURITY HOME

By Dave Johnston When it comes to personal, home and business security in Ottawa, Henderson Security has been the industry leader with modern security products, competitive pricing and exemplary service since 1998.

The Henderson family has actually been protecting Ottawa homes and businesses since 1959, when founder Robert Henderson started one of the first independently owned alarm companies in the country. Over the next 28 years, Universal Alarms grew to be one of the largest and most respected security companies in Canada, protecting Government buildings, city buildings, banks, jewellery stores and private residences.

Doug Henderson grew up in the security business. When Dougâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father passed away, the family business was sold and Doug spent a number of years at ADT as sales director and his last two years in the corporate world as vice president of the security division for Wells Fargo Canada.

When Doug realized that the City of Ottawa was starved for a locally owned and operated security company, he formed Henderson Security. In its second year of operation, Henderson Security became one of the largest volume security companies in Eastern Ontario and has since installed over 21,000 residential and commercial security systems in the National Capital Region. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our business model has always remained very simple,â&#x20AC;? explains Doug Henderson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Provide our customers with the best product and the best service for the best price possible. We feel that the only way to truly meet the needs of our clientele is to provide dedicated local service. All our technicians and sales associates work locally and all monitoring is provided from right here in the Nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Capital.â&#x20AC;?

Henderson Security sells and install only the finest state-of-theart residential and commercial security systems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve built our business based on the belief that customers deserve the best value for their security dollar.â&#x20AC;?

With everything to meet any security requirement, Henderson is your one-stop shop for wireless motion detection, remote surveillance and control systems, monitoring and life safety.

‘Hike for Hospice’ on May 3

Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee meets again on Thursday, May 7th at 10:00am at Ben Franklin Place. As I do every month, I will go through the agenda items so that you are aware of what we are dealing with this month. The first two items were deferred from the April meeting. Those two items are the amendments/modifications to the Development Charge By-Law as it relates to a special sanitary sewer charge for both Richmond and Manotick. I feel this charge is being unfairly assessed in both villages and these items aim to correct the issue. Important to note that this sewer charge is above and beyond the regular development charges, of Special to the News It’s “Hike for Hospice” time this which I am not proposing any changes to. These charges are specifically unique to the villages of Richmond and Manotick Sunday, May 3.

Non-stop music means non-stop enjoyment John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

It started with the concert prelude music and continued on through 75 minutes of non-stop music, making for an evening of non-stop enjoyment and entertainment. This was the “Sweet Serenade – A Dessert Musicale” concert presented by the West Ottawa Ladies Chorus at St. Paul’s Anglican Church on Young Road just north of Hazeldean Road in Kanata last Saturday evening.

You knew that you were in for a special night of music when the concert prelude music played by Crystal Payne on flute and Beverly McKillop on clarinet included such tunes as “When I’m Sixty-Four,” from the Beatles 1967 album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and “The Entertainer,” the 1902 ragtime piano tune written by Scott Joplin that is now best remembered as the theme song in the 1973 Academy Award winning movie “The Sting.”

And then the West Ottawa Ladies Chorus opened its concert with “It’s a Grand Night for Singing,” a Rodgers

and Hammerstein song from the 1945 musical “State Fair” and you just knew that this song was not telling a lie – it was going to be one “grand night” for singing.

The songs throughout the next 75 minutes would include tunes from musicals, jazz songs, ballads and popular love songs from the 1950s and 1960’s and more.

There would be some singalong tunes but more than this, there would be lots of toe tapping music to enjoy – sweet, indeed!

It was a spring concert and so love, the emotion that soars in springtime, could not be ignored and it wasn’t.

Right away, the West Ottawa Ladies Chorus launched into “The Man I Love,” a George Gershwin song from 1924, following it up with “”Can’t Help Lovin’ Dat Man,” an Oscar Hammerstein tune from the 1927 musical Showboat.

These two jazz standards were followed by another jazz number, “Razzle Dazzle,” from the 1975 Broadway musical Chicago which returned to

Eliana Kurilov, left, accompanist for the West Ottawa Ladies Chorus, plays the keyboard as Carol Castro, centre, background, gets ready to turn the page of the music at the “Sweet Serenade – A Dessert Musicale” concert presented by the West Ottawa Ladies Chorus at St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Kanata last Saturday night.

Broadway in 1996 to become the longest running musical revival in Broadway history.

The West Ottawa Ladies Chorus is blessed to have a talented accompanist in Eliana Kurilov and this concert provided Eliana with an opportunity to shine as an individual artist as she performed a keyboard solo of “And All that Jazz,” from the musical Chicago, a tune that demonstrated her agility and talent on the keyboard.

The West Ottawa Ladies Chorus then presented a couple of 18th century pieces – “Ricevete by Mozart from the Marriage of Figaro and then “Torna, O Bella,” a joyful chorus which concludes Act 2 of C.W. Gluck’s 1762 mythological opera Orfeo ed Euridice. And this section of the program wrapped up with “Come to the Music,” in which the Chorus was accompanied by Crystal Payne on the piccolo. “Come to the Music” is a liturgical style dance song of celebration.

And so it went as the concert progressed – there was “Edelweiss” from The Sound of Music; “Turn Around,” a song whose lyrics were written by Harry Belafonte, among others; “Sunrise, Sunset” from the 1971 musical Fiddler on the Roof; “The Night Shall Be Filled With Music,” a 2007 tune that certain depicted this particular night perfectly; “I’ll Paint You A Rainbow,” another recent tune, written in 2005; and “Somewhere over the Rainbow,” a song best known from the 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz and a song that became a signature song for Judy Garland and, indeed, a song so well known that it was done as a singalong in this concert. This was followed by another well known song, “My Favourite Things” from the 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein music The Sound of Music, which also was a singalong tune in this concert, with West Ottawa Ladies Chorus music director Robert Dueck energetically directing the audience as the words appeared on a giant screen at the front of the church.

And after just singing about “favourite things,” the next tune, “Ice Cream” from the musical Anne of Green Gables surely was a favourite for those in the audience as it was superbly delivered as a duet by Chorus members Debbie Trouten and Lorraine Harker.

As it moved towards its end, the concert revived some memorable tunes from the 1950’s and 1960’s. There was “My Special Angel,” a 1957 hit for Bobby Helms which later was covered by such artists as Bobby Vinton, Frank Avalon and The Vogues vocal group. This was followed by “You’re Just in Love,” an Irving Berlin song that was first performed by Ethel Merman and Russell Nype in the musical comedy “Call Me Madam” in 1950, after which the Chorus performed “Chapel of Love, a song by The Dixie Cups in the 1940’s, with the audience breaking out into rhythmic clapping in tune with the singing during the song.

And the Chorus stayed with the golden oldies as “Chapel of Love” was followed up with “Sugartime,” a 1962 hit for the McGuire Sisters and another song during which the audience erupted into rhythmic clapping. Everyone – Chorus and audience – was having a lot of fun.

For its final number in the concert, the Chorus sang “Java Jive” with its “I love coffee, I love tea” lyrics, a most appropriate tune to lead into the post-concert refreshment period featuring desserts provided by Chorus members along with tea and coffee.

And although this was a spring concert, MC Maxine Mercer of the Chorus did not fail to use the occasion to promote the Chorus’ fourth annual Christmas (yes, Christmas) concert that will be held on Saturday, Dec. 5 at 7 p.m. and again on Sunday, Dec. 6 at 2:30 p.m. at the same church as this spring concert.

A pitch was also made that any experienced choral singers who might wish to join the West Ottawa Ladies Chorus this fall and sing in this Christmas concert should email LadiesChorus@bell.net .

Founder tells about Terrace Youth Wellness Centre John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

In the past few years, there has been an increase in severe mental health issues involving youth.

And it is a fact that suicide is the leading cause of death for those aged 15 to 24 years of age.

To try to provide needed services at the right time to youth suffering from mental health issues, Terri Storey has founded the Terrace Youth Wellness Centre.

She was at the Wednesday, April 22 meeting of the Rotary Club of Ottawa – Stittsville to tell Rotary members something about Terrace Youth Wellness Centre.

Established in 2013, the Terrace Youth Wellness Centre is a partnership with Terrace Youth Residential Services

Inc. offering an innovative model of care which addresses the mental health needs of youth with an emphasis on wellness. It is designed to meet the needs of the community for efficient and timely access to the mental health system. The Terrace Youth Wellness Centre provides information, assessment and treatment in an accepting environment.

The mission of the Terrace Youth Wellness Centre is to promote the overall health and well being of the community by providing high quality mental health services

to individuals, families and organizations.

An effort is made to provide clients with the best team of professionals from diverse backgrounds and schools of thought.

Terrace Youth Wellness Centre provides services in education, assessments, therapy and respite. Common concerns impacting youth mental health are alcohol or drugs, anxiety, bullying, depression, stress, eating concerns, academic anxieties, friendship problems, family problems, suicidal thoughts, sexual concerns and identity concerns.

Terrace Youth Wellness Centre tries to

offer holistic 360 degree mental health care solutions and customized wraparound services that address the critical needs of families who are often unable to find or unable to wait for public mental health services.

Terrace Youth Wellness Centre can be contacted at 613-831-1105 or via email at admin@terraceyouth.ca. Its website is at www.terraceyouthwc.ca .

Terrace Youth Residential Services Inc., a partner of Terrace Youth Wellness Centre, operates residential treatment homes and also has a foster care program.

Each week, a lawyer from the Kanata based Allan Snelling law firm will answer a reader’s question.

A weekly guide in legal matters

If you have a general legal question that you would like to have addressed send it via email to Legalmatters@compellingcounsel.com

My mortgage is up for renewal this summer. I will more than likely switch to a different lender. Would I need to use a lawyer to finalize my new mortgage?

While some banks and mortgage companies require that their clients retain a lawyer to finalize their mortgage refinancing transaction, it is now very common that some lending institutions would rather finalize it themselves or use a mortgage processing company. Nevertheless, most lenders will still give you an option of retaining your own lawyer to finalize the transaction.

Benefits of using a lawyer: Your lawyer will help you to review and understand complex mortgage documents, such as the mortgage disclosure statement and standard mortgage terms, and will also explain to you your rights and obligations under the mortgage.

They will make sure that your old mortgage is discharged from the title to your property. As a lawyer, I regularly see mortgages registered on title that were paid off many years ago, but have never been discharged by the bank.

Your lawyer will also go through the mortgage discharge

statement with you to ensure that the payout amount to discharge your old mortgage is correct.

Finally, your lawyer will make sure that the terms for the mortgage being registered on title are the same terms you have negotiated with your lender. It is not uncommon for some people to later discover that the amount of the mortgage registered on title is a lot higher than the actual amount of the mortgage they received from the lender. This can negatively affect their chance of getting a second mortgage or adding a secured line of credit from a different lender.

Eat your heart out, Dragon’s Den! The CBC-TV show “Dragon’s Den” has a panel of investors who sometimes invest in entrepreneurs and their ideas, with some of the ideas centering on unique new products invented by the presenters.

But Invention Convention, a school-based program which encourages grade eight students to invent a service or product to solve a problem, can fill a gym with unique new products invented by students. There are not just one or two new products – they are all unique new products.

And this is just what it did at Sacred Heart Catholic High School in Stittsville on Monday, April 20 with the school gym filled with student teams displaying their newly invented products and items.

And then just two days later, selected inventions from this school-based Invention Convention were on display again at the regional city-wide Invention Convention on Wednesday, April 22 at the Richcraft Recreation Centre in Kanata, with other unique inventions from several other schools on display as well.

And just what did the Sacred Heart students “invent” that we may be seeing appear on Dragon’s Den in the future – who knows?

Well, there’s the Mag-Puck, a product developed and being promoted by JDK Products, a company founded by students Kolby Brindle, Jayden Hughes and Dawson Carley. This is a magnetic puck that is designed to be easily picked up by magnets attached to the butt end of a hockey stick. These magnets even come in two colours, black or grey. The puck has a washer imbedded in it so that the magnets can latch onto it.

And like all promoters, Kolby, Jayden and Dawson have developed a promotional brochure about Mag-Puck. They can also be found on Instagram, Twitter and YouTube and, of course, there’s a website at http://kolbymma.wix.com/ jdkproducts .

This Mag-Puck is being promoted as particularly convenient for those with back pain or those who might have a disability that makes it difficult to bend over to pick up the puck.

Then there’s the Chip-Up, a lid-string combination that allows a person to capture every last potato chip in the cylindrical Pringles container which features stackable snack chips.

A survey done by student inventors Keyan Hogan, Eddie Dumont, Amos Douctte and Ryerson Parks showed John Curry/Metroland that 19 out of 20 people liked this idea.

Vendors wanted for Treasures Galore and More Sale Special to the News

Vendors are being sought for a Treasures Galore and More Sale at the parking lot at the Stittsville United Church in Stittsville on Saturday, June 13.

Hosted by the Stittsville United Church Women, this Treasures Galore and More Sale will take place from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Vendors involved with crafts, baking, plants, games, toys and more are invited to participate. Sell your surplus household treasures or extra garden items, childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s toys, books, jewellery or whatever else you may have that you would like to sell.

Instead of holding a garage or yard sale at your home, participate instead in this Treasures Galore and

More Sale. You will not be alone â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there will be lots of other vendors and sellers there. This will attract more buyers and you will have a better chance to have a successful sales day than if you were on your own at your home.

Spaces are being rented for $20 per space or $30 with a table included.

The only proviso to vendors/sell-

ers is that they have to take anything not sold back home with them.

To reserve a space at this Treasures Galore and More Sale, please phone the Stittsville United Church office at 613-836-4962 or Bonnie Lamb at 613-831-2582.

And besides finding lots of bargains, those attending as buyers will be able to enjoy lunch there as well

Invention Convention sees students invent products Continued from page 37

For deep sleepers or those who are hearing impaired, the student trio of Carmen Beadle, Hannah Sheehan and Leah Exley have invented the Pillow Alarm which is a pillow with a built in alarm that will either beep or vibrate or do both. The 3 inch by 3 inch alarm is inserted in a pillow where it cannot be felt but where it can buzz or vibrate to wake up the person sleeping.

The students have a website promoting the product along with a brochure and business cards.

If walking in rainy, dark conditions concerns you, you will love the “Ombrello,” whose motto is “We’ve got you covered!”

Developed by students Jenna Larkin, Hannah Harrington and Alyanna Tabilin, the Ombrello (it’s Italian for umbrella) is an umbrella which has a flashlight attached to it. This means that a person can walk along holding the umbrella with the light showing the way while still having another arm available for carrying bags or parcels.

Surveys carried out by the students revealed that everyone thought this idea of an umbrella with its own attached flashlight is an efficient idea.

Sacred Heart students Kaitlyn O’Donnell and Ashley Kavanagh did not go beyond the high school itself to find a problem and solve

it with their invention, “The Locker Ladder.”

This is a wooden device which fits in a locker and when pulled out, allows a student to be 11 inches taller and thus be able to easily see and reach the top shelf in the locker. The device can fit into any locker.

Among the many other inventions on display at Sacred Heart was the BIGS Ice Scraper, a glove made from water resistant materials that comes with an exchangeable snow brush attachment for cleaning snow off a car in the wintertime. The proposed price is $21 each.

A survey by the students involved, namely Brayden Laurin, Justin Moorhouse and Shelby Racine, revealed that 65 percent of those surveyed rated the product with four stars or better.

Other products demonstrated at Sacred Heart’s Invention Convention carried names like “The Sponge Glove,” “Blisters Be-Gone,” “Strainer Pot,” “The Grocery Sling,” “The Backscratch Hat,” “The No Drip Cup,” “Boot Buddy,” “Radar Stick,” “Dog Wash,” “The Brush Dryer,” “Shower Power,” and “The PopIt Heels.”

Among the Sacred Heart inventions selected to be at the city-wide Invention Convention at the Richcraft Recreation Centre in Kanata on Wednesday, April 22 were the “Breakfast Bowl” and the “Hair Trapper 3000.”

The Breakfast Bowl, devised by students

Megan Belford, Kailee Massenzio, Holly Treffers and Rose Allen, is a wooden product that dispenses just the right amount of cereal for breakfast.

The “Hair Trapper 3000” is a device worn around the neck at a beauty salon or barber shop which catches the hair that is cut, preventing it from reaching the floor. This saves time and allows the hairdresser or barber to serve more customers in a day. This “Hair Trapper 3000” is the brainchild of students Maria Scarfo, Courtney Albert and Joanna Stanczyk.

The Invention Convention program is meant to encourage students to investigate, invent and innovate and in so doing instilling in them a passion for math, science and technology while fostering innovative thinking and making learning science fun.

In the program, grade eight students identify a problem or opportunity in their daily lives and then invent a product or service to solve the problem based on concepts that they have learned in class.

Students create a working prototype, conduct experiments, survey the public, complete a patent application and develop a detailed financial report.

The invention is then showcased at the

school-based Invention Convention.

Schools participating at the city-wide Invention Convention at the Richcraft Recreation Centre in Kanata were Sacred Heart, Holy Trinity Catholic High School, All Saints Catholic High School and St. Joseph’s Catholic High School.

The program, promoted by The Learning Partnership organization, is meant to help students develop the skills that they will need to succeed in the workplace of the future. The Learning Partnership is a national charitable organization dedicated to advancing publicly funded education in Canada. The organization tries to deliver innovative programs for students as well as provide executive leadership and networking opportunities for educators.

Students benefit because they develop investigative and critical thinking skills, do creative problem solving and are exposed to research, graphic design, oral presentation and sales and marketing skills.

The program is meant to foster a passion for math, science and technology through hands-on learning.

Students involved have an opportunity to embrace innovative thinking and collaborative teamwork.

Awards presented at SMHA Volunteer Appreciation Night Special to the News

The Stittsville Minor Hockey Association (SMHA) has recognized its “best of the best” in presenting a number of special awards at its Volunteer Appreciation Night at The Glen Scottish Restaurant in Stittsville on Thursday evening, April 23.

These awards were for Competitive Coach of the Year, Manager of the Year, Trainer of the Year, Development Coach of the Year, House Coach of the Year and Official of the Year.

In addition, The Rory Bradley Volunteer of the Year Award, which has been presented for several years now, was also presented at this Volunteer Appreciation Night gathering.

Honoured as Competitive Coach of the Year is Chris St. Germain whose team this past season were champions in four tournaments, were RAMS Mid-Season Showdown Champions, were Ottawa B League Playoff Champions and were Hockey Eastern Ontario Branch Tier III Champions.

Coach St. Germain demonstrates and promotes good sportsmanship and citizenship

involving his players. By the end of the season, his players had demonstrated significant improvement in their hockey skills and abilities. His coaching involves a balanced approach between playing competitively and following the principle that minor hockey is meant to be “fun.”

Manager of the Year for the SMHA is Sarah Riedel who worked hard behind the scenes this past season to ensure her team’s success both on and off the ice. She worked cooperatively not only with those involved with her team but also with those involved with the SMHA, the league and others.

She consistently went above and beyond what is normally asked of a manager.

And, perhaps best of all, as one nomination recommendation said about Sarah Riedel, “Always arriving at the rink with a smile for all the parents.”

Honoured as Trainer of the Year is Andy Stevenson who served as the trainer on two teams this past season. One nomination submission said the following about Andy Stevenson as a trainer: “Andy always comes to the games prepared beyond what a house

league trainer is required to be. He is willing to help where needed.” And another nomination submission for Andy Stevenson read as follows: “Andy is a fantastic trainer who takes his role seriously. Safety is his priority and whatever you need you will find in his vast amount of supplies.”

Trainer Andy Stevenson is diligent about never missing practices or games. He is the first one in the dressing room and the last one to leave. He is committed to the safety of the players and puts their safety above all else.

Development Coach of the Year is Kristi Lowe. This award goes to a SMHA Development-level coach who exemplifies the values, goals and philosophy of the SMHA. This award recognizes a coach who has demonstrated a balanced approach between skill building and ensuing all players have fun during the season.

A nomination submission for Kristi Lowe stated the following: “Kristi took almost non-skating kids at the start of the season to kids who were flying around the ice at the end. Her practices were well planned and very organized.

All her players loved playing for her.”

The House Coach of the Year award went to Gord Pederson whose team won the regular season championship as well as the playoff championship this season.

The House Coach of the Year award goes to a coach who has demonstrated and promoted good sportsmanship and citizenship involving his or her team. The recipient of this award is a coach who has provided leadership and a good environment for the players of the team to develop their hockey skills and to develop their character as well.

The Official of the Year award has been presented to Calvin Stevens.

A nomination submission for Calvin stated: “Calvin is a great official, he handles pressure and coaches well. He always has a great attitude and works well with all his peers.”

The Official of the Year award goes to an official who has exemplified dedication and support for the SMHA’s referee program, excelling in his duties on the ice and al-

ways demonstrating a proper attitude as a representative of the SMHA. This year the Rory Bradley Volunteer of the Year award has been presented to Dean Taylor who has coached RAMS teams at both the minor and major atom level for several seasons now. A nonparent coach, he is involved out of a love for the game of hockey, providing a strong role model for the players. He always calmly explains any problem, either performance or discipline related, to the

player involved and says what need to be done to fix the problem in a collaborative rather than accusatory manner.

A nomination submission for Dean Taylor read as follows: He emphasized teamwork over points, dedication and heart over wins and mastering the basics to build a foundation that will serve them (the players) for as long as they play hockey.”

The submission went on about Dean Taylor as follows: “He embodied the volunteer spirit and taught the boys a

great deal about sportsmanship, teamwork and respect for themselves and others.”

The Rory Bradley Volunteer of the Year award is named after the late Rory Bradley, a long time SMHA coach and volunteer who was always ready to give his time and effort to wherever it was needed.

His love of the game and commitment to each and every player on any team he coached set him apart from others. He emphasized team sportsmanship above all.

LEAVE YOUR LASTING MARK FOR CHEO’S CHILDREN & FAMILIES AFTER A CAREER WORKING WITH KIDS AT CHEO AND AS A LONGTIME VOLUNTEER, LYNN MADE A DECISION THAT WOULD FOREVER LINK HER TO CHEO, A PLACE THAT HAS BEEN SUCH A BIG PART OF HER LIFE. SHE NAMED CHEO AS THE BENEFICIARY OF HER WORK LIFE INSURANCE POLICY AND ALSO OF HER PENSION. By making a planned gift to CHEO you not only help future generations of children, but you also provide some tax relief to your estate, while still providing for your family members.

Here are some ways you can create your Forever CHEO legacy: make a bequest in your Will; create an endowment fund; name CHEO as the beneficiary of your RRSPs or RRIFs; or take out a life insurance policy with CHEO as the beneficiary.

CONSIDER CREATING A TRULY LASTING LEGACY AND HELP TO ENSURE THAT CHEO IS FOREVER PART OF OUR COMMUNITY.

Your gift keeps on giving. Forever.

R0013246326

For more than 40 years our community has benefited from the care and medical expertise at CHEO. While some of us have thankfully never had to use CHEO, others have for minor or sometimes more serious issues. The one commonality we all share is a great respect and appreciation for CHEO. We want it to be here for our kids, our kids’ kids and beyond that. That is what Forever CHEO is all about!

Here comes fun at the Stittsville Shopping Centre in Stittsville.

The businesses at the Stittsville Shopping Centre ( Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street are hosting their third annual Stittsville Family Fun Day and Fundraiser this Saturday, May 2 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., rain or shine.

Everyone in the community is invited to attend this Stittsville Family Fun Day at the

Stittsville Shopping Centre. Highlight the event is a street show performance by Junkyard Symphony at 12 noon.

Other activities will include face painting and balloons, a photo booth, bubbles for kids and pendant painting at Pottery Playhouse.

There will also be a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s used book sale, cotton candy and a BBQ with a drink and hot dog available for only a toonie.

The Stittsville District Lions Club will be setting up a tent at the event. The Lions mascot is expected to be on hand.

In addition, there will be a silent auction with items up for grabs to be a dinner at Lone Star, an ipad, Funhaven passes, two Ed Sheeran tickets, passes for the Merivale Bowling Lanes, Xtreme Trampoline Park and Mt.

Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Arkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Male Chorus to sing Broadway tunes John Curry

Special to the News

john.curry@metroland.com

If you want to see a boatload of animals (literally), you should make it a point to attend the musical â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Arkâ&#x20AC;? at Stittsville United Church in Stittsville this coming weekend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be truly a zoo,â&#x20AC;? says the musicalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director Ruth Richardson as she explains that not only will there be animals of every kind in the cast but even audience members are being encouraged to wear animal costumes or animal prints when they attend a performance, becoming not only the audience but actual participants in this classic tale of Noah and his ark.

The entire sanctuary of the Stittsville United Church on Fernbank Road is being transformed into the ark for this musical that is simply called â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Ark.â&#x20AC;? So, once you have entered the sanctuary, you will be in the ark. There will be large beams, upper lofts storing bags of feed and more.

And animals portrayed by those from age six months to 80 years of age will be arriving on stage, finding their cages, stalls and pens.

You will even hear raccoons and peacocks chatting with each other and a raven. There will be a singing dove and all of the animals will be partying and dancing onboard the ark, unlike Noah and his family who are enduring some problems and stressful family dynamics while on the ark.

And, of course, there will be the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Voice of Godâ&#x20AC;? as well as a chorus of birds.

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Goulbourn Male Chorus will be singing a number of Broadway musical tunes for the first time ever in one of their concerts at its upcoming spring concert.

The 20 voice chorus, under the guidance of new music director Byron Hermann, will be singing a number of famous Broadway tunes in this concert entitled â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Bright Side of Life.â&#x20AC;? This will include â&#x20AC;&#x153;Olâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Man River,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bring Him Home,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Luck Be A Lady,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Can You Feel The Love Tonight,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Always Look On The Bright Side of Lifeâ&#x20AC;? and more.

But there will be more than just these familiar Broadway tunes presented at the concert.

The chorus will also perform a variety of folk songs and spiritual favourites including â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh Shenandoahâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Swing Low Sweet Chariot.â&#x20AC;?

Besides this new inclusion of Broadway songs in a Goulbourn Male Chorus concert, this springâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s concert will also be presented at a new location â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the Trinity Presbyterian Church on Richardson Side Road. It is a recently built facility that features superb acoustics and, perhaps just as important for any audience, comfortable seating.

This will also be the Goulbourn Male Chorusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; first public performance under the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new music director Byron Hermann who has replaced founding music director Robert Dueck.

This spring concert will be presented on Saturday, May 9 at 2:30 p.m. at the Trinity Presbyterian Church on Richardson Side Road near Huntmar Drive. Besides the musical offerings of the full Goulbourn Male Chorus, the concert will also feature the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Men of Noteâ&#x20AC;? a cappella ensemble which will be performing springtime music selections. There will also be audience sing along numbers.

Tickets at $15 each are available from chorus members as well as at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop and Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Your Independent Grocer, both in Stittsville.

In addition, tickets are available online at www.goulbournmalechorus.com . Tickets will also be available at the door.

If you already play ringette and have a friend who might be interested in trying out the sport, this â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come Try Ringetteâ&#x20AC;? event is an opportunity for you both to play ringette together. Or perhaps both you and your friend have never played ringette before â&#x20AC;&#x201C; this is the chance to try it out together.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great opportunity to just get out on the ice and find out what ringette is all about.

All you will need is a pair of skates, a helmet and a pair of gloves, either hockey gloves or just a regular pair of winter gloves. Ringette sticks will be provided or you can bring one along.

At this â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come Try Ringetteâ&#x20AC;? event, representatives from WORA will be on hand to answer any questions.

Well, girls between the ages of 4 and 9 can find out this Saturday, May 2 when the West Ottawa Ringette Association (WORA) hosts a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come Try Ringetteâ&#x20AC;? event at the Goulbourn Recreation Complex on Shea Road in Stittsville.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s running from 2:15 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. and, best of all, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s free. Yes, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all free thanks to the Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport which through its Sport & Recreation Communities Fund has provided a grant to WORA to enable young girls to try the sport of ringette.

At this â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come Try Ringetteâ&#x20AC;? event, you will be able to try playing the sport

There will also be on-ice helpers to assist any new skaters and players with the sport.

The WORA also offers an equipment loan program for new ringette players aged 4 to 7. This program can provide up to 26 players from 4 to 7 years old who are new to the sport with all the necessary equipment except for a helmet and skates.

The WORA is always on the lookout for goalies.

Anyone considering being a goalie should attend this â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come Try Ringetteâ&#x20AC;? event to find out more information. Goalies between the ages of 10 and 13 are in great demand.

Hear songs from TV shows, favourite movies at concerts

by Goulbourn Jubilee Singers Special to the News

News - There are lots of memories for everyone from watching movies and TV shows over years past.

And these movies and TV shows usually have a song associated with them, either a theme song from a long-running TV show or perhaps a movie song that has become popular or even has won an Academy Award.

You will have an opportunity to re-live these movie/TV song memories at this weekend’s annual spring concert of the Goulbourn Jubilee Singers and their associated junior choir the Junior Jubilees as they will be singing songs and theme songs from favourite movies and TV shows from the past 50 years.

When you hear the first few notes of these songs, you will undoubtedly be transported back to that time when you saw that particular movie or when you regularly watched that television show.

This spring concert has been named “Big Screen/Little Screen” because there will be songs from both “big screen” movies and “little screen” television shows.

The concert will be performed twice, providing lots of opportunity for people to attend and

enjoy this musical trip through the movies and TV shows of the past half century.

The concert will be presented this Saturday, May 2 at 7:30 p.m. and again this Sunday, May 3 at 2 p.m. at the Glen Cairn United Church at the corner of Abbeyhill Drive and Old Colony Road in the Glen Cairn area of Kanata. Advance tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for children or seniors. Tickets at the door will sell for $20 each.

Tickets in advance can be obtained by phoning 613-218-4492 or via email to bonnyhoughton@hotmail.com.

The Goulbourn Jubilee Singers is a community choir based in the west end of Ottawa with choir members ranging in age from 8 to 80.

Practices are held every Wednesday night at the Stittsville United Church on Fernbank Road just west of Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville.

For more information about the Goulbourn Jubilee Singers and the Junior Jubilees, please visit the website www.gjsingers.com .

The Goulbourn Jubilee Singers released a CD in 2014 entitled “Why We Sing.”

Copies of the CD will be available at this weekend’s concerts for those who wish to purchase it.

MARY COOK Bedlam happens Mary Cook’s Memories It was unusual for Mother to be in such a hurry to get into Renfrew for our regular Saturday morning trip in the old Model T. What else was unusual was Mother going to the blue sugar bowl in the back-to-the-wall cupboard and pulling a hand full of change out of her egg money. Her Saturday morning purchases were always made out of the money she got from peddling her wares door-to-door. But that day, a handful of egg-money was crammed into her black purse. When Mother and I piled into the old car, the weekly copy of the Renfrew Mercury was on the seat beside us, and Mother kept patting it like it was made of gold. It had been folded over and the Walker’s Store ad took up the whole page. So that was what Mother was so excited about.

“Just look at that Mary: Dan River cotton on sale at Walker’s Store for seven cents a yard.

Never have I heard of Dan River cotton on sale for such a price.” So that’s what all the excitement was about.

The cars and buggies were lined up on both sides of the street, and crowds of women, many of them our neighbours from Northcote, were already lined up at the Walker’s Store door. Without even asking a “by-your-leave,” Mother pulled into a small lane between two stores, grabbed her purse, told me to hurry, and we joined the lineup of women at the door of Walker’s Store.

at Walker’s Store

A man, who turned out to be the manager, was beet red, and he had one of those things to magnify his voice by shouting into it, asked for everyone’s attention. “There has been a terrible mistake. The Mercury, instead of printing 27 cents a yard for the Dan River cotton, printed seven cents. The number 2 was mistakenly left off, and really, the price is 27 cents, not seven.”

Well, I thought there was going to be a riot. The bedlam was left to the sole clerk who started removing the dozens of neatly folded bolts of Dan River off the shelves and pounding them down on the long counter.

I was sure we would never get out of the store alive. Whole bolts of Dan River were sold and it didn’t seem like anyone gave a hoot in Halifax for pattern or colour.

It wasn’t long before only one or two bolts of material were all that was left on the counter. No one was getting cuttings, everyone taking the whole bolt. We headed for the car, each of us carrying one of the bolts, and I stayed in the front seat while Mother peddled her butter, eggs, sticky buns and trussed up chickens all along the back streets of the town of Renfrew.

Before the next week was over, new mauve Dan River cotton curtains hung on the kitchen window, a yellow table cloth covered the red oilcloth, and I had two blouses to wear to the Northcote School. And there was lots of material left for which Mother was sure to find a use.

Keep allergies away with

Oranges

With spring flowers and blooming trees comes seasonal allergies - itchy eyes, fatigue, runny nose and even asthma.

Here are some tips to help reduce allergies or just support your immunity: 1. Oranges Vitamin C rich oranges help to support optimal immunity.

2. Omega 3 Eat more omega-3 fatty acid rich foods. A study published in the Journal of Allergy found people who have diets rich in omega-3 suffer from fewer allergy symptoms. Great sources are salmon, flax seeds and chia seeds.

3. Hot for Health Hot chili peppers, horseradish and hot mustards work as natural decongestants.

4. Honey Locally produced honey contains pollen spores picked up by the bees from your local plants, which can act as a natural “allergy type vaccine.” By introducing a small amount of the allergen, found in the honey, your immune system can build up natural immunity against it.

2 ½ cups carrots, shredded 1 cup walnuts, raw (pre-soaked

in water 30 min+, drained, optional) 1 cup dates, pitted 1 orange, peeled Raw Carrot Cake Bites The secret ingredient in these mini bites is orange! Oranges are the sunshine fruit in more ways than one, they are rich in Vitamin C and the white rind is full of bioflavonoids. Make sure to eat more of the white rind of your citrus fruits for even more antioxidant power!

½ cup coconut,

shredded, unsweetened

¼ cup chia seeds 1 tsp cinnamon ½ tsp nutmeg Pinch of sea salt

On a more visual level, regular exercise will translate into a more toned body and a change in clothing size, which will boost self-confidence and increase your energy levels. This helps you become much more productive throughout the day!

¼ cups + water 1 cup cashews, raw (pre-soaked 30 min+, drained) ⅓ cup extra virgin coconut oil (EVCO), melted 3 Tbsp honey, raw, local 1 tsp vanilla extract, pure ½ lemon, juice of Shredded orange peels, to garnish

A ‘first’ at Gaia Java coffee shop - dancing!

John Curry

john.curry@metroland.com

It’s a coffee shop that has become known for its Friday music evenings.

But last Friday, as part of the Friday music evening, there was something new that happened at the Gaia Java Coffee Company shop in Stittsville. There was dancing.

Yes, that’s right, when vocalist Carol Tieu was set to begin the final song that she and guitarist Stephane Klander were presenting that evening, the romantic “Only Fools Rush In,” a 1972 hit for Elvis Presley that was an earlier hit in the 1960’s for singers like Ricky Nelson and Brook Benton, she invited her mother and father, who were in the audience, to leave their seats and dance at the front of the shop.

OPEN HOUSE SUN. MAY. 3RD 2-4 PM

She described her parents, Paul and Dorothy Desrochers, as the “most love birdy couple you’ll ever see” and they did not disappoint as they danced cheek to cheek beside vocalist daughter Carol who was joined for this song not only by guitarist Stephane but also by her daughter Emily who had joined them for several songs during the evening.

And it did not end there as shortly after Carol’s parents started their dancing, Carol’s sister Joan Bidal and Gilles Auger left their seats and began dancing along with Paul and Dorothy Desrochers.

When it was all over, Gaia Java owner Paul Jay noted that the evening marked a “first” for the coffee shop as it was the first Friday evening where there was not only singing but also dancing taking place at the shop.

This dancing was the climax to an evening of music that featured a variety of songs – some jazz, some blues and lots of ballads. That’s because Carol Tieu has a background with the blues while guitarist Stephane Klander has a background in jazz. The two have recently reunited musically after a hiatus and are just starting to discover their identity as a musical duo.

But if last Friday’s musical evening at the Gaia Java shop is any indication, this identify will live in a gentle, melodic style that is beautifully suited to ballads.

Early on in the program Carol sang “Jolene,” Dolly Parton’s 1973 hit that has been recorded by numerous others over the years.

5517 Hazeldean Rd, Unit 1 K2S 0P5 62 Stittsville News - Thursday, April 30, 2015

Daughter sings with vocalist mother Continued from page 62

During the evening, Carol and Stephane were joined by Emily Tieu, Carol’s daughter, who sang harmony on some of the songs.

Among these was “Sweet Dreams (are made of this), a 1983 hit by the Eurythmics, the British music duo of Annie Lennox and David A. Stewart.

Among the other songs sung by Carol accompanied on the guitar by Stephane during the evening were “Fields of Gold,” a 1993 hit song by English musician Sting; “Summertime,” a 1934 George Gershwin song from the opera “Porgy & Bess” which is now considered a jazz standard; “Landslide, a 2002 hit by the American country music band the Dixie Chicks; a rendition of Hallelujah, the 1984 song by Canadian singer Leonard Cohen which has now been covered by hundreds of singers; “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” the Academy Award winning ballad from the 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz and a song which be-

came a signature song for Judy Garland; and the hard-to-forget “Count on Me,” a song associated with American singer Bruno Mars from his 2010 debut album “Doo-Woops & Hooligans.”

Carol and Stephane and also Emily generated a fun feeling in their performance, a feeling reinforced when Carol and Stephane shared a high-five following a song or the time when Carol and Emily and then Stephane shared high-fives following a song. You just knew that they were having fun and were happy with how they were presenting the songs.

Usually at these Friday music evenings at the Gaia Java shop, audience members drop something in a donation box with the money collected going to the performers to help with expenses. But for this Friday music evening, all of the donations received were earmarked for the support of Tyler, a 16 year old boy whom Emily Tieu has known for 11 years since she was six years old and for whom she has raised

money over these 11 years. Indeed, she has raised over $90,000 to help him as he battles sialidosis as he is one of only two people in the world known to have the disease. Tyler was not expected to live past six years of age but here he is now 16 years old and is still battling.

Emily held her own garage sales over the years to raise money for Tyler but this has now become a giant garage sale which is held at her high school Ecole Franco Ouest in Bells Corners and now includes not only a garage sale but a silent auction, a bake sale and more. This garage sale is coming up this Saturday, May 2 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. with everyone welcome to attend.

The Gaia Java Coffee Company shop at the Stittsville Shopping Centre (Shoppers Drug Mart plaza) on Stittsville Main Street in Stittsville holds a music evening every Friday starting at 7 p.m. There is no admission charge but early arrival is recommended for the best seating.

Sale at Curling Club Special to the News

Calling all garage sale fans!

There will be garage sales going on all over Richmond on Saturday, May 9 as part of the village-wide Great Garage Sale 2015 organized by the Richmond Village Association.

And one of the places that you will want to make sure that you stop on your travels around the village on that day is the Richmond Curling Club on Perth Street where a huge garage sale will be happening.

Indeed, this giant garage sale will actually get underway on Friday evening, May 8, running from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. You might want to be an “early bird” picker on Friday evening to

have the very best choice. But there will be lots for sale on Saturday, May 9 as well including children s items, art work, crafting materials, holiday décor, linen, clothing, sporting goods, furniture, tools, books and more.

The garage sale at the Richmond Curling Club will run from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, May 9.

In addition, there will be a BBQ lunch available on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. So it will be a great place to plan for a lunch stop as you travel around the village visiting all of the garage sales happening that day.

Everyone is welcome to drop into this garage sale at the Richmond Curling Club, either on Friday evening, May 8 or on Saturday, May 9. There’s going to be lots of items to choose from.

Duo zips down Jock River race course in just over one hour Special to the News

The 2015 Upper Jock River Paddling Race is now history.

After being delayed for two weeks due to the late arrival of spring, the race happened last Saturday, with over 130 entries taking part.

Speediest finisher in the race was the duo of Ryan Stepka and Joanna Faloon in the mixed competitive canoe class who sped down the route from the Munster Sideroad to the Jock River Park in Richmond in one hour, one minute and 47 seconds, just failing to beat the elusive mark of conquering the course in less than one hour.

Ryan and Joanna placed first in the mixed competitive canoe class, with the duo of Colin Smith and Shealagh Pope placing second with a time of one hour, 15 minutes and 20 seconds.

Also speedy going down the course was the pair of Har-

old Walker and Pierre Brault who clocked a time of one hour, three minutes and 13 seconds in winning the men’s recreational canoe class. Second place in this class went to the tandem of Scott Reynolds and Adam

Woolfrey while third place went to the pair of Matthew Raymond and Bruce Raymond.

Winning the men’s competitive canoe class were the duo of Jacob Smith and Isaac Finkelstein in a time of one hour, six min-

utes and 31 seconds. Second place in this class went to Alexander Hoferek and Adam Richard.
